Chapter 20 Orcs
Chapter 20 Orcs
When Fu Shaoping walked down from the execution platform.
But see.
Strands of light red energy fell from Yang Shan's corpse onto him. At the same time, his blood and energy continued to rise, washing over his flesh.
A slight rumbling sound came from within the body.
Suddenly.
His sea of consciousness flashed slightly, and a line of text appeared:
"Forging Realm: Third Level (2/100)"
Breakthrough!
Fu Shaoping's eyes lit up with joy.
From the second level of the Body Tempering Realm, he broke through to the third level, and then one step further, it was the fourth level of the Body Tempering Realm. He used the internal energy to refine the skin. Only when he reached this level, he was considered to have stepped half a foot into the ranks of warriors.
Because the first three levels are only to increase Qi and blood and enhance physical fitness, but the body is like that of an ordinary person who has not practiced, and will bleed to death if hit by a sword or a gun. But after reaching the fourth level of the Body Tempering Realm and forming copper skin, one has the ability to resist attacks, and ordinary swords and guns cannot penetrate it at all.
at the same time.
The sixteen runes surrounding the Xuanming Treasure Mirror.
The second one flashed slightly, and then it was lit up!
The lighting of the sixteen runes meant that the Mysterious Fate Treasure Mirror was turning again, and the fate might no longer be [Hate Evil as Much as It Enemies]. However, based on the current progress, it would not be possible to accumulate enough energy to light up the sixteen runes in at least the next few years.
Fu Shaoping got into the carriage directly after coming down from Xingtai.
The carriage returned to the Hundred Households Office again.
Old Zhan was drinking tea. When he saw Fu Shaoping coming in, he deliberately glanced at him. He looked at Fu Shaoping calmly, as if he had just come back from a walk after a meal. A smile appeared on his face:
"It seems that this month in prison has indeed made you brave. Come, try my Wuling tea. This is a good tea from the capital."
Wuling tea has a light milky aroma.
It is used to refresh the mind.
Fu Shaoping took a bite and said with a smile:
“It’s really good tea.”
After they drank a cup of tea.
Old Zhan then got to the point and said:
"Shaoping, have you ever heard of orcs?"
Orc?
Fu Shaoping frowned, thought for a while, and nodded slightly.
Half-orcs are the result of the fusion of humans and monsters. In order to pursue military power, the last Great Zhou Dynasty issued a tough decree, allowing humans to fuse with powerful monsters. The children born were half human and half monster, and because they had monster blood in their bodies, they had strong physiques when they were born. Because of this, the Great Zhou Dynasty was very powerful at that time.
But that's why.
As the number of half-human, half-beast creatures increases, their fighting power has already surpassed that of human warriors.
The most terrifying thing is.
The half-human, half-beast creatures had long been used as killing weapons, and they began to rebel. A rebellion of the half-human, half-beast creatures lasted for nearly a hundred years. It was only because the current Emperor Tianwu suddenly appeared that the war ended.
Since.
The Dawu Dynasty ordered that all half-human, half-beast creatures be strangled to death.
Nearly a thousand years have passed.
Nowadays, it is rare to hear of the appearance of half-human, half-beast creatures.
Old Zhan said:
"According to the news above, a half-human, half-beast monster appeared in Dagui Village last night. This monster slaughtered nearly a hundred villagers overnight!"
Such a brutal incident.
This was the first time Fu Shaoping had encountered one since he was born. If he could capture and kill this alien, he couldn't believe how much this gift would be worth.
but.
He quickly dismissed the idea.
The half-human, half-beast monsters often possess the strength of the fourth level of the Body Tempering Realm or above when they are born. His current strength is not enough to contend with them.
Old Zhan continued:
"Although Da Kui Village is under the jurisdiction of Qingyang Town, it is right at the border of our Qingniu Town. So early this morning, the captain personally issued a mission. All the staff of the captain's office must go out and divide into 30 teams to thoroughly search all the villages in the entire Qingniu Town to ensure that this alien is not lurking in our village."
"Once you find any clues, immediately activate the smoke bomb in your hand, and the captain will personally go out to capture him."
"Although our team only has you and me, we have been assigned a village. What a coincidence, it is Huangxi Village where the murder just happened."
"The rest of the team has already set off"
"Shao Ping, if you have nothing to do at home, come with me."
"According to the rewards issued by the higher authorities, no matter who it is, just providing clues will be directly rewarded with ten ninth-level merits! Anyone who captures this orc will be rewarded with a seventh-level merit!!"
"The seventh level of merit is naturally out of our reach."
"But if you and I are lucky enough to find some clues about this orc, we can get those ten ninth-level merits right away!!"
There was a pause.
Old Zhan glanced at his broken leg.
He shook his head and said:
"Of course, it's best if we don't run into each other."
"It is said that the orc's initial assessment of strength has reached the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm, and is only one step away from the Earthly Element Realm. If it finds the two of us, I'm afraid it will kill us before we can even send a message."
Fu Shaoping listened to Old Zhan's last sentence.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
When it comes to such dangerous things, it’s best not to get involved.
Those ten ninth-level merits seemed tempting, but the greater the reward, the greater the danger. Fu Shaoping knew his own worth, and he didn't want to stand out. The best plan was to follow the instructions and take a stroll in Huangxi Village and come back.
"Sir, I have been in seclusion for more than ten days, and I just finished an execution. Can you let me go home to take a shower and take a nap for half an hour before leaving? After all, I am afraid of the worst. I think it is better to keep my physical strength and energy at the strongest time."
"Of course that's no problem. We are responsible for only one village, so we don't need to waste so much time. You can go home first. I will send a carriage to pick you up in an hour."
"Thank you for your consideration!"
Fu Shaoping expressed his sincere gratitude.
After all, ten ninth-level merits are quite tempting to other captains, so how could they let you hesitate? Therefore, it was the wisest decision to be able to enter the name of old Zhan.
Leave from the Hundred Households Office.
Walking on the streets.
When they were halfway there, the crowd suddenly became noisy, and then one shop after another was seen closing and locking their doors. All of a sudden, all the pedestrians on the street ran away and went back to their homes.
Obviously.
Everyone has heard about the tragedy in Da Kui Village.
Da Kui Village is right next door.
If they really escape to their Qingniu Town, their lives will be in danger, and they can't help but be afraid.
When Fu Shaoping returned home, Zhou Paner was standing at the door, looking forward to it. When she saw Fu Shaoping, she immediately pulled him back home. However, when she heard that Fu Shaoping would leave in an hour, her smiling face turned pale:
"Shaoping, do we have to go to Huangxi Village?"
"This is a mandatory order. We have no choice but to go. But don't worry. Zhan Bo has no intention of taking credit. We are just going to take a stroll and then return to the city. Besides, Da Kui Village is separated from Huangxi Village by the Changliu River. The orcs are unlikely to come to Huangxi Village. Don't worry."
