Chapter 240: Five Steps Away and Within a Thousand Miles
As someone who has died twice, well, maybe that time just now can also be counted as one......
The two deaths brought different insights to Ye Nanyou, who played the role of Zhu Houzhao.
Thinking back to the previous battle, I saw the soldiers who fought bravely to kill the enemy, and the ten commanders who were extremely skilled in combat.
At this time, Zhu Houzhao felt the gap between his strength value and the other party, as well as his lack of knowledge of cold weapon combat, and he didn't even know the basic common sense that arrows could not be pulled out casually in the battlefield, otherwise it would cause secondary damage.
It is undeniable that before Ye Nanyou became the character of Zhu Houzhao, he was just an ordinary person in the city, and he had no strengths except for a little talent and hand speed in playing strategy games.
"It seems that my combat ability really needs to be improved." Zhu Houzhao was thinking about whether to use reincarnation points to learn some skills.
Because Zhu Houzhao is now played by Ye Nanyou, the reincarnation, he can only "sleep" for a maximum of five hours a day, and at the least, he must also have an hour of "sleep".
During this time period, except for a two-hour rest in the "Dream Lord Reserve's Special Resting Place", the rest of the time was spent listening to the black-robed man lecture on the reincarnation code in the public classroom in the teaching area, and you know, he already knew that he had memorized that code.
If you learn other skills, you'll really spend reincarnation points.
Thinking of this, Zhu Houzhao clicked on his own "Dream Lord System".
After Zhu Houzhao's efforts for nearly two months, the level of this portable system has been upgraded from level zero to level two, and it is about to reach level three systems.
Although he didn't know what items would be opened after the system was upgraded to the third level, Zhu Houzhao was also looking forward to it, because he had already felt the power of this system.
This is different from when he was just upgraded to the first-level authority, at that time Zhu Houzhao felt that the system was a pit, except that he would be wiped out if he didn't accumulate more reincarnation points, it was almost useless.
Why?
Because of the first-level system, in addition to the things that can be exchanged for the previous zero-level things, it only adds the exchange of various white quality weapons, equipment, ordinary blood regeneration food, healing items and the like.
However, Zhu Houzhao is the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty!
You don't have to worry about food and clothing in the palace, and there are people waiting for you every day when you get up, wash your face and brush your teeth, what do you want those white quality weapons and equipment for?
Needless to say, the attribute garbage of these weapons and equipment is not as good as the defense of the emperor's regular clothes, and the appearance is ugly, and it doesn't even have half a collection value, so what's the use of exchanging it?
When the furnishings still take up space!
As for the food and healing items that rejuvenated blood, Zhu Houzhao also felt that it was useless at that time.
Out of curiosity, he once exchanged for one of the cheapest foods, black flour steamed buns.
One word, unpalatable!
Well, these are two words in a word, because this food is so unpalatable that Zhu Houzhao can't tell the difference between "words" and "words", think about it, can you still eat food that has reached this level?
Since then, Zhu Houzhao has hardly exchanged anything from the system for zero-level permissions and first-level permissions.
The only thing that can be exchanged is only a small bottle of stamina potion, which will only be exchanged at night when you are with the harem beauties to increase your endurance.
It wasn't until Zhu Houzhao upgraded the system to second-level authority that he discovered the power of this "Dream Lord System".
Because when he was promoted to the second-level authority, under the advice of the system, Zhu Houzhao knew that he had been out of the novice level.
In addition to the increase in the exchange of green quality weapons and equipment, as well as higher-level blood regeneration food and healing items, the most important thing is that the second-level permission has added a more useful exchange - you can spend reincarnation points to exchange for a loyal subordinate!
This exchange is very awesome, Zhu Houzhao thought at that time, if he exchanged a legion from the system, wouldn't he be able to set foot in the world?
However, the second-level system is destined to not be able to exchange too powerful NPCs, most of them are very ordinary passerby NPCs, with little combat power and no special skills, and the average level is only level ten.
And in that system upgrade, the Dream Lord system actually kindly gave Zhu Houzhao a simple system guide, which contained something about the rules for character exchange.
When Zhu Houzhao carefully read the rules of character exchange, he found that these people who were exchanged for reincarnation points, or NPCs who were summoned, were loyal to the summoner within thirty days of the exchange and had no second thoughts, no matter what they were asked to do.
But thirty days later, if you want these NPCs to stay and serve you, you have to look at the charisma of your summoner.
Another point is that what the summoner orders these NPCs to do during these thirty days, and what they do to these NPCs, will affect whether or not the NPCs stay and continue to serve allegiance.
It is worth noting that the higher the system level, the greater the chance that the summoned NPC will be left after thirty days.
All in all, the higher the level of permission you can use the 'Dream Lord System', the more things you can exchange.
When the authority is upgraded to the ninth level, you will also be eligible to exchange for the title of Dream Lord.
"Is it to earn a little more reincarnation points to level up, or to spend some reincarnation points to learn skills?"
Zhu Hou looked at the reincarnation points displayed in the system and was worried, this battlefield trial made him feel a little uneasy, so he wanted to learn about combat skills. However, he was eager to upgrade the system as soon as possible to gain more permissions.
"This kind of battlefield trial may not be available at any time, looking at the task explanation given by the system, this is a newly formed small space, and there will be battlefield trials."
"But if you don't learn combat skills, what will you do next time you encounter this type of combat trial?"
"Alas, I really don't like to be an ant in the battlefield and steal it......" This is Zhu Houzhao's feeling about this battlefield trial, he prefers his current identity and status to the battlefield trial.
Why?
Because his current identity is the emperor, this is the real dragon emperor!
As an emperor, where can you be like being a small soldier on the battlefield, where is your life in danger at all times?
Therefore, Zhu Houzhao, who wanted to upgrade the system level, finally gave up his plan to learn other combat types of skills immediately, and he decided to upgrade the system level first, and then learn some combat skills after his authority reached the third level.
Thinking about this, Zhu Houzhao shouted loudly outside the door: "I'm hungry, Liu Companion ......"
Before the words fell, I heard a eunuch shouting outside the door: "Hurry up, I didn't hear Your Majesty crying hungry!" ”
Then, the eunuch bowed down into the house, knelt directly to Zhu Houzhao, and said: "The slave has already instructed the inner cabinet to prepare, and I will send it to Your Majesty in a while." ”
The eunuch who entered the house to speak was the Liu companion that Zhu Houzhao called out in his mouth, named Liu Jin, and Zhu Houzhao learned from some information that this name was not his real name, but was changed after he attached a eunuch surnamed Liu to the palace as a eunuch.
However, Zhu Houzhao doesn't care about these either, he doesn't know much about this similarity with the history of the Ming Dynasty in the real world where he once lived, because he wasn't interested in history before, and only liked to play competitive games, so he chose to be a science student, and then went to study computer science.
"Alright, I know." Zhu Houzhao waved his hand at Liu Jin, "Go down." ”
"Whoa."
Liu Jin is an NPC, but he is an NPC with a high level of intelligence, and the level of observation of words and colors is higher than that of ordinary people, he heard before entering the door that the emperor didn't know why, and suddenly he didn't want to eat dinner, and he lost his temper, so he hurriedly ordered the inner kitchen not to turn off the fire, ready to cook for the emperor at any time, and put the meat that was difficult to heat in the previous meals into the big steamer to keep warm.
Facts have proved that this Liu Jin's order is right.
In less than ten minutes, all the dishes on the table were prepared, and they were all sent to Zhu Houzhao's dormitory.
is different from those TV dramas, it is not a special room as a place to eat, and then put hundreds of dishes at once.
Because when the emperor eats at night, most of them are in his own bedroom, and sometimes he will go to the bedrooms of some concubines.
Only when the foreign ministers are invited to a palace banquet during the festival banquet, they will go to a special place to eat, and then put on hundreds of dishes to drink with the ministers.
Of course, those palace banquets are also divided into levels, according to the specifications of the large banquet, medium banquet, small banquet, these are all regular banquets.
If there are some drought and flood years, even the banquet will be canceled, and when there are some abnormal visions, the banquet will also be canceled, such as solar eclipses, earth movements, and so on.
If there is a disaster or a vision, according to the rules of the Ming Dynasty, not only must the banquet be canceled, but the emperor will also take the lead in taking out silver from the inner treasury for disaster relief, and also call on the ministers to donate silver for disaster relief.
In addition, the emperor also needed to compensate his ministers by giving money, receiving a banquet or folding a banquet.
It can be said that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was the most difficult emperor in history, because it was an era when the model of emperor and scholar co-ruling the world reached its peak.
At this time, Zhu Houzhao ate alone, naturally there would not be any scene of hundreds of dishes, the whole table was just four vegetarian dishes, two meat dishes, and a bowl of soup, and the portion was still very small.
Maybe it was because he had experienced too many battles in the battlefield trial before, after Zhu Houzhao sat down, he didn't move other dishes, and first took a small bowl of soup on the table and drank it to the bottom.
"One more bowl." After Zhu Houzhao finished drinking, he directly handed the small bowl to the little waiter who was waiting for him to eat.
Maybe it's because Zhu Houzhao usually tastes the soup lightly, and he hasn't drunk it as much as he did today, and the little waiter next to him is an NPC with intermediate intelligence, so he is not so fast in terms of reaction speed to deal with emergencies.
Wait for Zhu Houzhao to let go like this......
With a loud bang, the small bowl fell directly to the ground and shattered.
"Shhhh
When the small bowl shattered, a small piece of broken porcelain flew out and stabbed Zhu Houzhao's face directly, startling him.
Fortunately, the porcelain piece is very small, the speed is not very fast, and it does not have much lethality, and it does not make Zhu Houzhao injured and bleed, so it can only be regarded as a false alarm.
But......
Zhu Houzhao, who had just experienced a battlefield trial, was a hundred times more sensitive than usual to the feeling and reaction of this sharp foreign body touching his skin, and immediately stood up from his seat.
This frightened the little chamberlain, and immediately knelt down and kowtowed vigorously on the ground, regardless of the fact that there were still some broken porcelain pieces on the ground that might be scratched.
And Liu Jin, the eunuch who was standing and serving on the side, said sharply: "Come on, pull this hairy thing down, and take a heavy responsibility for thirty court battles, if you kill it, it means that you are guilty, and if you don't kill it, it means that the crime will not die, and you will be imprisoned!" ”
"No need, I was careless, the bowl in my hand was put away early, don't blame him, you get up." Of course, Zhu Houzhao would not deal with it like this, he waved his hand to the guard who came to hear the voice, and then called the little waiter to get up.
However, after this trouble, Zhu Houzhao's appetite for eating was not much, and after eating a few bites, he asked the attendants to withdraw the food and go back to the bed to rest.
Leaning on the bed, Zhu Houzhao subconsciously touched the place that had just been bounced by the small porcelain piece with his hand.
Although the porcelain tiles did not cause harm and did not leave any traces, Zhu Houzhao still felt a little shaken in his heart.
For a person who lived in the city before his death, such a brutal battle can indeed leave a lot of impressive things, including the psychological shadow brought about by the war.
When he first played computer games, Zhu Houzhao was an e-sports master, controlling his own characters to fight and fight, and the feeling of being free and drenching was really refreshing.
However, this time it was my turn to play in person, even if it wasn't really death, it was a not very pleasant experience.
Of course, there is also the reason why Zhu Houzhao does not know any combat skills here.
Zhu Houzhao put down his hand and sighed in his heart, "If it wasn't for a small piece of porcelain that flew just now, if it was a flying knife or a hidden weapon, maybe my life wouldn't be saved......"
"If that little chamberlain wants to commit murder, he only needs to grab a sharp piece of porcelain from the ground and rub it on my neck, even if I don't die in the end, I will lose half my life......"
Zhu Houzhao seems to be starting to think crankily, maybe this is the sequelae of the battlefield.
At this time, he suddenly thought of a common saying, when the husband is angry, blood is splashed in five steps, and when the son of heaven is angry, millions of corpses are floating, and blood is shed for thousands of miles.
"Perhaps, the power of the emperor is within these five steps and within a thousand miles, any person, as long as he is holding a sharp weapon, can cause harm to the emperor within five steps, because the emperor at this time is no different from ordinary people, and the emperor can only govern the territory that belongs to him for thousands of miles...... I was on the battlefield before, within five steps. ”
