Chapter 137: Guards
It is not surprising that there are bands of thieves on the territory of the empire. However, generally speaking, no matter how strong the bandits were, they only dared to attack caravans or commoners, and attacking nobles was an absolute capital offense, especially a noble lord like Hathaway...... On the other hand, if she really has a problem in the snooker province, not only the local garrison will be responsible, but even the face of the grand duke of snooker will not look good. Therefore, before setting off, the captain of the Snow Wolf Legion and Barth, who was in charge of Hathaway's escort, were in charge of Hathaway's guards. Together, Willie charted a practical route...... Hathaway was shocked when she first saw this plan, which was very complete and had a troop number on it.
"Is it necessary to make it so grand?" Hathaway asked. She was well aware that the movement of troops was very troublesome, especially if it was an army directly under the royal family like the Snow Wolf Legion.
"Yes, Your Excellency."
The commander of the Snow Wolf Legion replied in the affirmative: "It is a great shame for us to have such an attack on the nobles in the Snooker Province, although that team has been wiped out by you, it does not mean that the main messenger behind the scenes has stopped." Since you have to travel at the same time, and the escort troops cannot withstand the sleepless march, I propose that all the troops along the route should share the task of guarding, so that they can preemptively remove all creatures that pose a threat to you within five kilometers on both sides of the road, and take over the tired troops with high morale......"
Hathaway understood that it was because they were worried about what would happen to them in the snooker province, so they took it so seriously. Moreover, the Snow Wolf Legion is the main legion directly under the royal family, and they must have been instructed by the old emperor to do so...... The army guards are not really a deterrent to those thieves, because the real thieves will not attack an earl unless they have some blood feud, he is having this attitude that shows the emperor's majesty, so that those who are still secretly about to move completely extinguish this thought.
When Hathaway and her party hit the road, the line suddenly became longer. Nearly a thousand troops protected them in the middle. Mighty march towards the province of Casef. After leaving the city of Hampt, the team marched along the northern shore of Lake Baikal. Perhaps it was informed that not only were there no thieves along the way, but even the mercenaries avoided it. lest you get into trouble.
Hathaway's convoy barely rested for a moment. Only when the troops change guards can they get half a day's rest...... According to the pre-established plan. There were troops along the way, which gave Hathaway the feeling of being escorted - and she was the one being escorted.
Of course, this is just a kind of spit, and the people along the way are pulling out the cost. Even the cost of accommodation didn't have to be paid for by her, so that she could have more time to cultivate...... Although she beheaded Jamie. Andrew, but that doesn't mean she's really able to treat the Golden Warrior as nothing. At that time, Jamie. Andrew has been seriously injured, although he can show his fighting spirit, but his strength is less than three percent of the usual, so he was easily killed by her, if it was when her strength was not damaged, she would not be able to succeed so easily.
Therefore, after Hathaway had more time to rest, the veteran began to teach her some goblin combat skills and a set of cultivation methods that specialized in refining the flesh.
God is the most advanced life in the biological chain, and it is also the higher life recognized by the major races so far.
Generally speaking, to distinguish the life forms of an organism, the main thing is to distinguish their vital signs...... Generally speaking, higher life forms are basically energy life forms. For example, the gods, after condensing the laws of the elements, transformed their bodies into energy bodies.
Energizing flesh and blood life forms is not just a sign, mainly because relatively speaking, flesh life forms are too fragile, and some important parts can easily die after being attacked. And energy life forms do not have this shackles...... As long as his soul is not obliterated until the energy is exhausted, he will not die.
However, it is not an easy task to energize flesh and blood life. First, it is necessary to perceive the laws of heaven and earth, at least to the extreme, so as to have enough strength to convert energy; In both cases, the physical body must be exercised to the extreme in order to be able to withstand energy transformation; Three, there is enough energy in the body.
When many strong people cultivated to the high-level state of flesh and blood lifeforms, although their soul and spiritual power were strong enough to condense the laws of heaven and earth...... They are called godheads, but their flesh and blood functions have begun to decay and cannot withstand the transformation of energy; Or their flesh and blood strength is sufficient, but their soul and spiritual power are lacking, and they cannot condense the laws of heaven and earth...... In short, it is often just because of the difference of one step, many strong people are trapped in the realm of the Holy Realm.
Whether it is a martial artist or a mage, when it comes to the last step, it must go through the condensation of the laws of heaven and earth, or the exercise of the body and the accumulation of energy. It's just that following the chosen cultivation path is not, and the emphasis is also different.
"If you can't condense the laws of heaven and earth, and your body can't be energized, can't you become a god?" Hathaway asked curiously.
There are also many stories about becoming gods in Chinese myths and legends, and the most attractive is the "Romance of the Gods", in which most of the people who were canonized gods were heroic souls who died in battle...... To some extent, they have all become energy bodies, but there are still a few people who have become gods in the flesh. For example, Li Jing and his son, Wei Dao, Yang Jian and others.
"It's not that you can't be promoted to a god, it's just that you can't convert into an energy body, and you will lose a lot of the characteristics that the body of a strong energy body has. For example, if your physical body is badly damaged, you will still die, but for the energy body, as long as the energy is not used up. The wounds on the body will automatically repair, and as long as the Godhead is not broken and the soul is not erased, it is immortal. ”
"So, it's impossible to become a god in the flesh?" Hathaway felt that she had been deceived by the book, but the thought that her whole body was energized made her feel very awkward.
"No, it's possible. In ancient times, many powerful races were able to become gods in the flesh...... For example, the giants are extremely strong. However, the requirements for the body to become a god are very strict, in the later stage, the body of the god will become stronger and stronger, but in the early stage, when the body has not reached enough strength, it is basically bullied, and there are very few people who can really go to the bottom.
The god who energizes the divine body, in the early stage, the promotion speed is very fast, as long as the energy is accumulated enough and the soul is strong enough, he will be promoted; But the god body is a god of flesh and blood, and when he is promoted, he has to beat the flesh and blood repeatedly at every step, so he is promoted very slowly, but because of the solid foundation, the later he goes, the easier it is to be promoted, and the stronger his strength is. The veteran explained.
"Since I can choose, I still choose to become a god in the flesh." Hathaway thought about it, but still felt that flesh and blood was more in line with her own concept.
"Okay, since you have chosen this path, I have a set of cultivation methods here that I can teach you."
The veteran sighed softly, and passed a set of cultivation methods called "Yuan Ling Incarnation" to Hathaway's brain, "This set of cultivation methods is called "Yuan Ling Incarnation", which is a cultivation method created by a strong man of the fairy clan in the ancient era to temper the flesh with elements and spiritual power. ”
As soon as the cultivation method came into her mind, Hathaway immediately began to flip through it, and after reading it, she felt a little difficult to put down. This set of cultivation methods is too mysterious, and the complementarity of the physical body, elements, and spiritual power has been born to the extreme, and before she knew it, Hathaway had completed the first article.
Just the first article has a tenfold increase in the strength of the physical body, which makes Hathaway want to continue flipping backwards, but finds that the second article cannot be opened.
"If you want to hurry, you can't get there. With your current comprehensive situation, being able to cultivate the first chapter is already saturated, so don't rush it. The veteran admonished Hathaway.
"Okay, then I'll cultivate the first part first." Hathaway is as good as a stream, and she has to lay a good foundation.
Hathaway's carriage has a very good shock-absorbing design, and she sits in it steadily, barely feeling the bumps in the road, and does not affect her cultivation in the slightest...... Because of the previous cultivation of other exercises, those elements were dispersed into every corner of the body under the operation of the "Yuan Spirit Incarnation", and then silently stored by the cells. As time goes by, more and more energy is stored in the cells...... Where her carriage was, the energy of the magical elemental was more active than ever.
During the time that Hathaway was practicing, the others were not idle.
Iona and Lena also locked themselves in the carriage and began to do penance, hoping that they would be able to help next time. Hathaway also took the time to give a lot of guiding opinions on the practice of the two women.
And Barthes. After Willy and the others arranged the work of the guards, they also began to cultivate hard, and the entire escort team trained hard.
Time rewinds to half a month, after Hathaway was assassinated, Fei Wenlie XVIII locked himself in the study, furious, the royal secretariat and the heads of the major departments of the empire, all trembling and waiting to see the emperor's majesty.
"Your Majesty! The time is 11:54 p.m. on January 6th, and I ask you for orders on behalf of the Imperial Military Department! "Imperial War Minister Sexter. Tucker, the marshal stared at the pale-faced emperor and said such a sentence, and behind this marshal were all the heads of the various departments of the imperial military department.
The Emperor did not bother with the marshal, he was still considering whether it was worth it, even though it had to be carried out, but as the head of the Empire, he had to take responsibility for his decisions, and the most important point now was whether it was worth it. The large living room was so crowded with people that for a moment no one could find who was talking. (To be continued......)
