Chapter 4 Demon (please vote for recommendation!)
Montenegro.
The mountain is completely dark, with few trees and rugged rocks, transformed into many terrifying shapes.
In fact, this place was originally the holy land of Count Hastings. The first Earl of Hastings was a pioneering knight of a certain country in the west. After the fall of the First Empire of Yanhan, he marched here to take advantage, expand the territory, and establish Got an uncle.
Most of the Western countries are indigenous to this world, and there are many small countries. In the past, there were also huge countries that could confront the Yanhan Empire. It is said that the customs are very different from those of the Yanhan Empire, and the races are also different.
Su Daozhi was not very clear about this.
He didn't even know what kind of weird and bizarre appearance the Western world outside the territory looked like.
Because between the east and the west, not only is the distance long, but there is also a terrible barrier - black fog!
The terrifying black mist seems to be a specialty of this world, and is said to be the product of the collapse of the First Yanhan Empire. It shrouds the borders of the Second Yanhan Empire and is difficult to purify, cutting the Yanhan border into pieces.
Even occasionally, various dangerous and disgusting monsters would emerge from the black mist.
There are so many such monsters, and every once in a while, a ‘magic tide’ will form!
The reason why the Hastings Kingdom was destroyed was that it was far away from the Western countries and too close to the Second Yanhan Empire. This was only one reason.
Another reason is that he was too close to the black mist and was attacked by monsters one after another, which exhausted his monks and soldiers!
Zhong Shenxiu looked at the Black Mountain in the distance, recalling some information in his mind, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
"Woof!"
Next to him, Huang Xie, a Quanrong man, stuck out his tongue: "There is no strange smell nearby. You can repair it on the spot... Be careful not to get close to the gap in the canyon. It is said to be the place where successive earls worshiped demons, and there is still evil and terror... …”
When this was mentioned, a valve seemed to be opened in Zhong Shenxiu's mind.
He covered his forehead, and a layer of memory emerged:
The twin moons in the sky turned scarlet, and in front of them was the pitch-black Grand Canyon.
The young man's arms trembled slightly as he climbed on the edge of the cliff.
Thick darkness surged from the gap that seemed to go straight to the ground, and there seemed to be something inside that was ready to move.
'Haha...Is this your origin? ’
Zhong Shenxiu pressed his chest and murmured to himself.
The reason why Uncle Hastings was able to survive for a long time was by offering sacrifices to the evil things in the Black Mountain!
It is said that the first Earl of Hastings signed a contract with a strange existence in order to gain strength and immortality, and even his own form changed.
That kind of weird existence...is called a devil!
The 'demon' here is not the chaotic and funny one in Zhong Shenxiu's memory, but a more terrifying and evil existence!
In other words, it can be regarded as...a god standing in a higher dimensional space!
'But actually, this is understandable... After all, in our Eastern lineage, if ghosts have accumulated enough merit, can't they also become gods? Why are you discriminating against the evil spirits of the West...'
Zhong Shenxiu complained silently in his heart: 'It's just a little...a little bit more powerful...'
So far, he doesn't know what the thing inside his body is.
'In this world, there is a double moon full moon every fifteen days. The blood moon time is not fixed, ranging from three months to a year... This is the time for its crazy attack. I may not be able to survive it, and, Even on a daily basis... it will gradually erode this body and continue to drain away my vitality...'
Zhong Shenxiu looked at his palms. It seemed like an illusion. His skin seemed a little paler than yesterday, as if it was losing its temperature little by little, becoming cold and stiff...
He knew that he was slowly dying...
Not only that, the thing in his body was still affecting his spirit.
It gradually became cold-blooded and cruel, which was already the mildest symptom.
Even if he turns into a murderer the next moment, Zhong Shenxiu won't be too surprised...that's weird!
‘What kind of sinkhole opening is this? ’
Zhong Shenxiu kept complaining in her heart: 'This is all forcing me, forcing me to show off! ’
Compared with this kind of crisis, being disliked by the captain Tian Bufen is completely childish.
‘It’s time to show real skill. ’
Zhong Shenxiu sat silently and began to eat the dry food he had brought with him.
The Black Mountain Fort equipped them with special 'grain bricks', which are made of steamed various crop powders under high pressure. It is said that one brick can kill a mountain tiger and break even the hardest teeth.
Even if it is barely boiled with boiling water, the paste will have an unbearable gritty texture.
But Zhong Shenxiu didn't care about this. He was thinking about how he should show off.
According to the experience of the previous world, Tianxiu Point is not so easy to obtain.
First of all, you must show well and show wonderfully. This is the premise.
Immediately, it has to be done in an environment where everyone is watching. The more people, the better.
It seems that the bigger the ‘audience’, the better feedback you get.
Otherwise, he was not a maniac in his last life, so why would he have to get involved in everything, and why would he only play the trick of appearing holy in front of others?
Even so, after a large-scale costume show, you may not be able to gain a few show points, but fortunately, you can continue to accumulate them.
Zhong Shenxiu thought for a moment and secretly twitched the funny gyro system.
Lines of data that only he could see emerged:
[Hundred Forged Martial Arts: Fifth Level]
[Piano Art: The Third Level]
[Chess Skills: The Third Level]
[Calligraphy and Painting: The Fourth Level]
[Innate Qigong: Not yet started]
[Fragmentary Chapter of Xuanyin Yuhun: Not yet started]
[Tianxiu Points: 0 (0%)]
…
'Martial arts and acrobatics are my accumulation from the previous world... But the martial arts from the previous world may not be as strong in this world... Unexpectedly, the innate Qigong that I created is still there. As long as you have some talent, you can surpass it... ...This world is capable of even cultivation, so it can definitely accommodate innate Qi refining...'
'Unfortunately, talent points are rare, and some skills require more than one talent point to improve in the later stage...'
'According to experience, an excellent show-off can probably get you one talent point, but it's very difficult. Most of the time you can only get 20% to 70%...'
'This is simply too horrible to watch. I finally lowered my face and prepared to show off, but the reward is so small...'
Zhong Shenxiu had a look of resentment on his face and complained secretly in his heart.
Huang Xie, who was next to him, had already finished his rations and came over to say, "Su Jun, my employment period has expired and I will be leaving Black Mountain Fort soon... The commander intends to target you, so you should take care..."
"Isn't Tian Bufen? Don't worry..."
Zhong Shenxiu shook his head.
Patrolling Black Mountain is not an easy job. It is easy to run into evil spirits. He has been assigned here one after another, so naturally he is targeted.
This is the case in the human world. I don’t know when I encountered malicious intent.
