Chapter 163: Slaying Demons and Eliminating Evil (Please Subscribe)
"Hello, my name is Wan Liang."
"My name is He Zhengyi."
"We are both martial arts students who took the national exam in Jiangbei Province last year. We are now both working in the Martial Hall, responsible for eradicating the alien creatures lurking in human society."
After the two came in, they introduced themselves one after another.
"Hello, my name is Zhang Lingfeng. After you took the national exam and came out of the academy, you went to the martial arts hall to work. Didn't you go to college?"
Zhang Lingfeng asked in confusion.
The national examination has strict age standards.
Martial arts students cannot be over 20 years old.
In theory, Wan Liang and He Zhengyi could continue their training at the university even after leaving the academy.
"Wudian is a university, a university that makes people love and hate it."
Chu Yuyan explained.
"We did not perform well in the national exam, and King Jiangbei thought we were not smart enough, so he specially arranged for us to enter the Martial Hall."
Wan Liang explained.
"We have learned a lot in the Martial Hall, and we usually practice with Teacher Chu. In the next month, you will practice with us and slay demons together."
He Zhengyi smiled.
"Destroying demons?"
Zhang Lingfeng was a little surprised.
Of course he understood the literal meaning.
Wan Liang just said that those who can wipe out the alien creatures lurking in human society, those who can transform into humans and blend in among humans, or those who are worthy of being bewitched by alien creatures and those traitors who grow up with the support of powerful resources, are all strong.
It would be a bit risky to participate in slaying demons and eliminating evil before graduating from high school.
"What a coincidence, we have a mission to complete today, so you can come with us."
Wan Liang smiled.
"Teacher Chu, don't you need to practice?"
Zhang Lingfeng asked hurriedly.
Compared to risking one's life to slay demons and monsters, it is obviously more in line with the requirement of lying down to practice here.
"Killing demons and eliminating evil is also a form of practice. Let's go!"
Chu Yuyan smiled.
Then he took Zhang Lingfeng and the other two out of the training room and came to the backyard of Jiangbei Palace. On an empty lawn, an airship had already been prepared.
Only then did Zhang Lingfeng realize that the cultivation was fake, and the real purpose was to lead him to slay demons and eliminate evil.
It seems that King Jiangbei had already made arrangements. This month's practice was not as he had imagined, where he would not practice in the practice room step by step and accept guidance from every teacher, but would participate in various tasks.
It makes sense. The biggest purpose of cultivation is to win in actual combat, to eliminate alien races for mankind, and to fight against extraterrestrial creatures.
If they cannot exorcise demons and help humans obtain more survival resources, how can the Seven Star System Alliance provide everyone with cultivation resources and survival resource subsidies?
Several people boarded the airship.
The airship quickly sailed out of the Jiangbei Palace.
Sitting in the airship and looking down, Zhang Lingfeng couldn't help but think that a powerful telepath could use the fluctuations of his mental power to allow himself to fly in the air by stepping on objects.
I just don't know what kind of strength a Dharmakaya warrior must have to be able to fly in the air?
He thought of Ao Dagang.
When dealing with the catfish demon queen, he also needed the help of his partner Qiao Yishan's mental power fluctuations to fly above the magma and deal with the catfish demon queen.
Obviously, even if the eighth level of Dharmakāya is perfected and the Dantian Qi Sea is opened up, a Dharmakāya warrior does not have the ability to fly. Could it be that a warrior who can fly directly must be stronger than the Grandmaster level?
Of course, with the development of technology, basically all armors have the ability to fly, but once the armor is damaged, it is easy to be smashed to pieces.
Especially when facing a powerful demon king, although the armor can play a protective role, once there is a problem, it can easily cause fatal damage.
A truly strong person will not pin his hopes on armor. Of course, some people choose to merge with higher-level, priceless armor to become a powerful armor warrior.
Like those with strong genetic bloodlines, they are relatively easy to create. There are such people among humans. Their contribution to the human race is no less than those of powerful Dharma warriors, and sometimes even higher.
About two hours later, the airship landed.
Zhang Lingfeng discovered that after two hours of flight, they had already flown out of Jiangbei City. Although they were still within Jiangbei Province, they were no longer in the provincial capital.
Instead, he came to a city called Wangcheng.
This place is close to the provincial capital, in the central area of Jiangbei Province. There is no ocean around it, let alone a large radiation zone. The material subsidies and living environment are much better than those in Nancheng.
Of course, some research and development factories that will have an impact on the environment cannot be built in Wangcheng, so the industries here are generally moving towards intelligence.
The Star Realm System Maintenance Factory in this area of Jiangbei Province is located in Wangcheng.
The Star Realm System was developed by the Alliance of Seven Star Systems for all of humanity. The energy consumed by the system's operation is an astronomical figure every day.
In each major galaxy, each planet, each country, each province, and even each city, there are related companies that undertake various tasks to maintain the operation of the star system.
Once a problem occurs in the Star Realm system, it will have a fatal impact on the location, so the Star Realm system is also the facility that alien creatures most want to destroy.
Generally, alien creatures that are able to hide in human society, avoid all kinds of tracking, and even face inspections by various instruments without being exposed will find ways to enter the factories that provide maintenance and operation for the star world system.
Not only will they steal all kinds of useful information from it, but they will also try every means to destroy the Star Realm system when they sense danger.
It can be said that such things happen every day in the Seven Galaxy Alliance. Every day, problems occur in the star world system in some places, which prevents people from entering the star world. Even because of system failures, many people's consciousness is damaged.
As a fourth-tier province with relatively weak defense, Jiangbei Province has always faced such threats.
After getting off the airship.
Zhang Lingfeng and Chu Yuyan and the others changed to a smaller, more ordinary airship that served as a bus and arrived at a factory.
Under the arrangement of relevant personnel, the four people all changed into factory uniforms.
The imagined scene of a factory with well-equipped facilities, expensive facilities everywhere, various instruments running, and many people guarding it did not appear.
Instead, it gave Zhang Lingfeng the feeling of being in an electronics factory in his previous life.
Besides being crowded, there are still a lot of people.
Maybe the relevant operating instruments are all in important warehouses.
"This is who we're going to deal with later."
After entering the factory and coming to a tea room, Chu Yuyan sent the relevant information to Zhang Lingfeng. Zhang Lingfeng saw through the bracelet projection that the alien creature lurking in the factory was actually a rat king, a rat king that had evolved into a human form, and its appearance and behavior seemed to be exactly the same as those of humans.
The other person transformed into a young man wearing glasses, looking honest and simple, but rather introverted and shy.
Currently, I have been involved in the work of maintaining the Star Realm system.
It was discovered due to information provided by a recently captured rat demon.
According to the information content.
This rat king would connect with the captured rat demon at nine o'clock every night. Once there was a problem with the connection, it would mean that the other party was exposed. It would immediately return to the factory to destroy the maintenance facilities, causing the star world system of Wangcheng and even the entire Jiangbei Province to be temporarily paralyzed, causing problems with the relevant data here.
Fortunately, the system has many protection measures, especially the protection of data content. Even if the instruments and equipment here are destroyed, humans can recover.
The problem is that during the time the system is down, the damage done to humanity is irreversible.
Another rat demon was captured just this morning.
There are still five hours until nine o'clock in the evening.
Zhang Lingfeng and his team had to ensure that they successfully captured the Rat King without affecting other personnel, and prevent the Rat King from contacting other alien species. By following the clues on the Rat King, they would be able to eradicate the alien creatures hiding in Jiangbei Province.
Therefore, when capturing the Rat King, not only must he be subdued instantly, but he must also not be allowed to harm other people or send any messages out.
The most important thing is to keep the Rat King alive.
Zhang Lingfeng felt that the difficulty coefficient of this task was a bit high. According to intelligence information, the Rat King's combat power value was 920.0, which was equivalent to the Zang Xiang realm.
The power that erupts in an instant should not be underestimated.
In addition, alien races generally have better perception and can often detect danger earlier than humans, so when taking action, there must be no hesitation.
"Can a demon king who has reached the level of Zang Xiang transform into a human form?"
Zhang Lingfeng asked. He remembered that the strength of the catfish demon queen was almost the same as Ao Dagang, and she could also transform into a human form, but when fighting, her original body showed stronger combat power.
“Not necessarily. The higher the bloodline level, the harder it is to transform into a human form. The weaker the bloodline level, the easier it is to transform into a human form. Of course, the cultivation speed is also slower.
This rat king is already sixty years old this year. He has lived in the sewers for many years and knows human habits very well. He was able to blend into human society and gradually obtain his current job. "
Chu Yuyan said.
"Wait a minute, the three of us will watch you subdue the Rat King and write a report for you when we get back."
Zhang Lingfeng asked again.
"You come with me."
Wan Liang smiled.
"what?"
Zhang Lingfeng opened his mouth, "What if something goes wrong and it leaks out?"
"Don't worry, we have already contacted the relevant departments. Even if a fight breaks out, it can send a message, but the message will be intercepted and its companions will not receive it, unless there are other companions of it in this factory. But we have already investigated and it is the only one with the problem."
Chu Yuyan said.
"Then I will use my mental power to assist you."
Zhang Lingfeng suggested.
"Okay, you assist me and I'll fight in the front."
Wan Liang had no objection.
"Excuse me, how strong are you?"
Zhang Lingfeng asked tentatively.
"Zang Xiang realm, combat power value 947.2, physical fitness 281.7."
Wan Liang did not hide it.
Because even if Zhang Lingfeng didn't ask, he would tell Zhang Lingfeng his strength before taking action. Only when they understand each other and cooperate with each other, there will be no problems.
As for Zhang Lingfeng's combat power, the provincial examination had just ended two days ago. Wan Liang, He Zhengyi and even Chu Yuyan knew it clearly and did not ask any more questions.
"okay."
Zhang Lingfeng nodded, feeling slightly relieved, and at the same time full of expectations for the academy.
According to the assessment standards of previous provincial examinations and the fact that the Wan Liang brothers were eliminated in the first round of the national examination, it is not difficult to guess that they had not yet started to use their dirty tricks when they took the national examination last year.
The combat power value should be around five hundred.
In just one year, the combat power value has increased by more than 400, which is obviously closely related to the academy.
With such strength, when they fight, with my mental support from behind, even if the Rat King's combat power exceeds 950.0 or even reaches 1000.0, he will probably have to kneel.
After all, the mental fluctuations of a third-level mentalist are no joke.
It can directly penetrate the Dharma image of a bone-shaped strong man. Even if the Rat King has thick skin and strong consciousness, as long as you release your mental power with all your strength, the Rat King will have to kneel.
So there should be no surprises.
After half an hour.
Zhang Lingfeng and Wan Liang, as well as Chu Yuyan and He Zhengyi, entered the workplace as interns under the arrangement of the factory staff.
"Xiaotian, there are a few newcomers in our department. You are responsible for helping them get familiar with the relevant work content today. They are outside the corridor. Go and meet them."
The person in charge walked up to the Rat King, Duan Xiaotian, and spoke in a leadership tone.
He didn't know that Duan Xiaotian was the Rat King. He just received a task assignment asking him to specially select the Rat King to receive him.
"Hey, okay."
Duan Xiaotian pushed his glasses, stood up from his workstation, and ran towards the corridor at the entrance.
After a while he saw Zhang Lingfeng and three others.
He jogged along with a smile on his face, like a corporate slave who was trying hard to do his job well, was afraid of being criticized by his boss, and was dedicated to his work.
Zhang Lingfeng and three others stood in the corridor in an orderly manner, looking at Duan Xiaotian with smiles on their faces.
"Whoosh!"
Suddenly, Duan Xiaotian, who was jogging in the corridor, rushed out of the corridor, transformed into his original form in the air, and flew towards the distance at a speed beyond that of a warrior in the Zangxiang realm.
"what!"
Suddenly, a black rat more than three meters long and more ferocious than a tiger jumped out of the factory, moving around outside the corridor, and the guys working in the factory were all startled.
"what happened?"
Zhang Lingfeng and the others were all confused. How did the Rat King find out that there was something wrong with them?
"Chase!"
Chu Yuyan chased after him at lightning speed.
Being able to become Zhang Lingfeng's teacher under the arrangement of King Jiangbei, one can imagine her strength.
With a light jump, he covered a distance of two or three hundred meters and quickly caught up with the Rat King.
"hoarse!"
A cloud of mist suddenly exploded in the distance.
Flood the space near the factory.
"Teacher Chu!"
Wan Liang and He Zhengyi followed behind and chased out.
"Zhang Lingfeng, you stay here and don't go anywhere!"
He Zhengyi reminded.
"it is good!"
Zhang Lingfeng nodded without hesitation.
He saw fog and fire in the distance, which was obviously arranged by the Rat King in advance. He didn't know how the Rat King discovered that there was something wrong with them.
"What are you doing here? Go back!"
In the fog, Chu Yuyan saw Wan Liang and He Zhengyi rushing in and couldn't help but shout.
"boom!"
At the same time, the earth trembled.
Large groups of rats the size of house cats emerged from the ground.
A large piece of hair on his back was torn off by Chu Yuyan. The Rat King was dragging on the ground, bleeding continuously, and a look of madness appeared in his eyes.
He transformed into a human form again, rushed out of the fog, ran towards the factory, and rushed towards Zhang Lingfeng.
It just received a mission last night. The Undersea God King asked it to expose its identity and find ways to assassinate Zhang Lingfeng, a martial arts student from Jiangbei Province.
That's why the rat demon was exposed and it met Zhang Lingfeng here.
Only by using fog and other means to trap Chu Yuyan and the others can it have a chance to kill Zhang Lingfeng here.
"Well, no!"
At this moment, Zhang Lingfeng felt a strong murderous intent. Although he was not yet a true spiritual warrior, he already possessed spiritual power and could sense the danger in advance.
Soon he saw a panicked figure running towards him quickly, as if frightened by the Rat King.
"careful!"
"Run!"
Chu Yuyan shouted.
She shot out from the fog, exerting all her strength and rushing towards Zhang Lingfeng at the fastest speed. She suddenly realized that the alien intelligence system had infiltrated the entire Jiangbei Province, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence that Zhang Lingfeng was arranged to slay demons.
It seems that it's not just the Rat King who's involved, but also a powerful human traitor.
