Chapter 185: Huo Yuanlong
β...... His gaze was indifferent, looking at us like a flock of lambs about to go to the slaughterhouse. He is said to be a cadet of our academy, but I'm sure I've never seen him in the top two hundred. Maybe he's unique? God knows! I think he's a cold guy, maybe he's going to kill us. I would prefer the honorable Miss Shi Xueman to lead us, rather than this unknown person. β
ββExcerpt from "Huo Yuanlong's Diary"
Looking at the immature teenagers in front of him, Ai Hui seemed to see himself three years ago, as if he saw another coolie.
Coolies without Yuan Li are as fragile as paper people in the wilderness, and they are cannon fodder. The trainees with meager strength and pale experience, Matsuma Castle in the blood disaster is not much tougher than the paper man, and he is also cannon fodder.
The era of piling up the number of people has long passed, and now it is the era of masters.
The role of a Grandmaster is more useful than all the people in the entire Matsuma Castle combined. If there was a grandmaster in Matsuma City, he would have taken them out of the induction field safely.
It's a pity that Matsuma Castle doesn't.
They had no other way than to pile up the numbers, and the crowd tactic was their only option now. Blood ants swarmed, and humans responded in the same way, and in Matsuma Castle today, there is no difference between humans and beasts.
Walking on the streets, you can see everywhere the freshly organized team, a team of 100 people. The leader shouted hoarsely, waving his arms in an attempt to boost everyone's morale.
Under their impassioned expressions, Ai Hui saw deep fear.
Countless panicked, desperate gazes, like sea water flooding the streets, the black smoke of the sky and the approaching night merge into one.
The streets are littered with bricks, collapsed walls, houses often block the road, dried blood is mixed in, and the air is filled with the smell of blood and smoke. Jack-o-lanterns lined up neatly on both sides of the street. Now like a toothless comb, sparse and mutilated, emitting a faint and dim light, Matsuma Castle is now another world.
He had never seen such a scene in the wilderness.
The officials at the warehouse were very busy, and Ai Hui waited in line for about half an hour to see him. He recognized Ai Hui at a glance. Ai Hui made a very deep impression on him.
"There's nothing good about it now, you can pick two, preferably faster. β
The officer gestured to the long line at the door.
Ai Hui knew that it would be impossible to choose like last time, so he said directly, "Okay." I need a fire weapon, a fire jar or something. β
"What was the fat man used last time?" The official has a good memory, and the fat man who can put on the heavy armor of [Fudo Mountain] also impresses him.
"That's him. Ai Hui nodded.
"Ha, you're in luck. The official smiled: "The fire jar is long gone, but there is one fire jar." Because it's too big and heavy, no one has been using it. In fact, last time I thought it was suitable for that fat man. β
The officer took Ai Hui to the corner and pointed to a vat that was almost a man tall. Ai Hui immediately understood why no one used it, this thing was too big. The smaller the fire tank used for fire repair, the more expensive it is, such as a fire gourd. Ordinary fire cultivation uses a fire jar.
And the half-human-high fire vat in front of him is simply a big wine vat.
"Does this thing work?" Ai Hui was a little skeptical.
"Of course. The official said, "Don't look at it big, but it's a good thing." Except that it's a little heavier and a little bigger. There are no other drawbacks. β
Ai Hui listened like rolling his eyes, a little heavier. It's a big drawback. Thinking that the fat man was wearing a [Fudong Mountain] heavy armor, holding a heavy shield as thick as a wall, and carrying a half-human-tall wine vat on his back, the shape was really a bit too ...... I don't know how to describe it!
"This is really a good thing!" the official looked at Ai Hui's look of disbelief, and was a little dissatisfied: "The craftsman who made it was originally going to build a heavenly soldier, but it failed. Just use the original fetus. This fire vat has been reinvented. You see there's an inscription on it, it's not my nonsense. β
He pointed to the small words next to the fire vat and motioned for Ai Hui to look.
If it were another person who questioned himself so much, he would have blasted the other party out a long time ago. But he remembered Ai Hui. And now it seems that Ai Hui and they can survive, and they still have the ability.
When Ai Hui heard that it was a product of the failure to build a heavenly soldier, he asked for it on the spot without saying a word: "That's it!"
The so-called heavenly soldiers are high-end weapons and equipment specially used for Yuan Xiu. Because it is produced in the Five Elements Heaven, and in order to distinguish it from the magic weapons in history, it is named Heavenly Soldier.
The spear in Shi Xueman's hand is a heavenly soldier.
The Heavenly Soldier has many wonders that can greatly improve Yuan Xiu's combat effectiveness. The Heavenly Soldier has high requirements for the user, and the most ordinary Heavenly Soldier also needs to complete the Eight Palaces Small Perfection, that is, the Yuan Xiu that meets the registration.
The spear in Shi Xueman's hand, she can exert less than one percent of the power now.
The requirements for materials to build a heavenly soldier are very high, so as soon as Ai Hui heard about the product of the failure to build a heavenly soldier, he knew that the materials used in the vat were excellent.
Tianbing has high requirements for materials and requires complex manufacturing skills, so the price has always been high. Ai Hui has seen many Yuan Xiu masters in the wilderness, but there are only a handful of them who have heavenly soldiers.
The official saw that Ai Hui answered very simply, and only then did he show a little satisfaction: "What else do you need?"
"Cobwebs, arrows, and peppers. β
"The cobweb iron bullet for Miss Sang, with her bow technique, should be usable. The official nodded: "There are more than two hundred grains in the warehouse, all of which are given to you." It's powerful enough for you to think of such an out-of-the-way thing. β
Each of the cobweb bullets is about the size of a thumb, and it looks no different from a normal bullet. However, it is actually compressed from a spider web, which is emitted with a touch of elemental force, and when it hits an enemy, it turns into a spider web.
The official's vision is very old-fashioned, and Ai Hui is indeed prepared for Sang Zhijun. Sang Zhijun's archery skills are actually better than Jiang Wei, and his combat effectiveness is not as good as Jiang Wei, Ai Hui thought of the spider web iron bullet, and asked with the attitude of giving it a try, but he didn't expect it to be true.
The Cobweb Bullet is very biased because the strength of the cobweb is not very high. If it's high, it's going to get expensive.
But Ai Hui didn't care, it was enough to harass the enemy.
"The wolf's fangs and heavy arrows can only give you two pots. Seeing that Ai Hui was about to speak, the official interrupted him with a resolute attitude: "Many people need to add it." Being able to give you two pots is already taking care of you. Everyone else can only get one pot. β
Well, two pots are two pots, Ai Hui also knows that it is the truth, and there are still so many people queuing up behind.
"The pepper warehouse doesn't. The official's face was full of wonder: "You want chili peppers? It's really weird! Go to the spice shop and buy them yourself, who has nothing to do with putting chili peppers in the warehouse, and the city lord eats sweet and spicy food." β
Chili pepper didn't get it. Ai Hui was a little disappointed.
But the other party had already turned around to deal with the others, and Ai Hui knew that he couldn't get any more benefits, so he dragged the big wine vat away.
The crowd in line looked at the big wine vat that Ai Hui was carrying, and they all looked sideways.
In the Bingfeng Dojo, all the students have just gone through a hard training and are enjoying a moment of rest.
It was Shi Xueman who was in charge of the rehearsal, and Ai Hui didn't have any interest in taking the students, so he threw it directly to Shi Xueman.
Shi Xueman won everyone's trust in a short period of time. The strength is superb, the reputation is outstanding, and the family has a family history, and no one is unconvinced.
Because of her father, she had secretly studied some of her father's books since she was a child, and she was much better than several others when it came to talking on paper.
When Ai Hui handed over all these people to her, Shi Xueman was a little excited in his heart. I have read so many military books since I was a child. Can you have a chance to practice, can you not be excited?
The only thing that made her unhappy was her deputy. She originally thought that the deputy should be Duanmu Dusk, but Ai Hui assigned Jiang Wei.
She glanced at Jiang Wei, who was sitting there resting, and had to admit that Ai Hui's vision seemed to be better than herself.
Jiang Wei looks far less prominent and dazzling than Duanmu Dusk, but his style is steady and careful, calm and patient. If it weren't for Jiang Wei's help. The rookie Shi Xueman must be in a hurry.
Duanmu Dusk was completely immersed in his own cultivation.
In fact, he was reluctant to do it, and his dream was to become a grandmaster.
He used to be a bit confused, but after experiencing brutal battles and the threat of death, his ideal gradually became clear - he wanted to become a grandmaster, to become the most powerful grandmaster!
When you take a break. The atmosphere was dreary, and everyone was depressed, with confusion about the future and fear of the upcoming battle.
Confusion and fear make them restless.
"Why do we have to listen to Ai Hui's orders?" Huo Yuanlong's voice was neither loud nor small, and it happened that everyone could hear it.
Huo Yuanlong did it on purpose, in Matsuma Academy, he was also the number one person, and the ranking of the academy had never fallen out of the top ten. Now let him unconditionally obey the order of a first-year student, if it is Duanmu Dusk, it will be forgotten, or Ai Hui, who he has never stopped name.
At that time, when the dean was speaking, he was secretly observing Ai Hui, and he didn't see anything unusual.
The only thing that impressed him was Ai Hui's indifferent gaze, but it was this indifferent and indifferent gaze that made him even more unhappy. Being looked at by an unknown person who had never heard of a name with such a gaze, he was very angry in his heart.
Shi Xueman frowned, Jiang Wei, who was resting, opened his eyes, Sang Zhijun glanced over, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and his fingers twisted lightly on the bowstring of the golden silk soft bow, like plucking the strings.
The atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
Some students said to Huo Yuanlong: "Yuanlong, don't say a word!"
Huo Yuanlong stiffened his neck and raised his voice: "Did I say something wrong?"
Duanmu, who was immersed in cultivation, was interrupted, and his face sank.
"I'm willing to listen to Miss Shi and Dusk's orders, what qualifications does Ai Hui have?" Huo Yuanlong said loudly.
The thoughts in the hearts of many people were spoken, and there was a commotion.
"That's it, Miss Shi and Dusk are qualified!"
"What Ai Hui, where did it come from?"
......
"Shut up!" Shi Xueman's face turned cold, stood up, carried Yun Dyed Sky, and walked towards Huo Yuanlong: "You, go out of the ranks, take the lead in making trouble, and be fined fifty lashes!"
Huo Yuanlong's face changed greatly, he couldn't figure it out, why did Miss Shi take Ai Hui?
He had fifty lashes...... He shuddered, and hurriedly asked Duanmu Dusk for help: "Dusk, are you okay?"
"There are opinions. Duanmu came over at dusk.
Duanmu's words made Huo Yuanlong overjoyed: "That's it! Dusk, if you have any opinions, just say it, everyone listens to you." β
"My opinion is simple. Duanmu Dusk grinned, revealing snow-white teeth: "I'll carry out these fifty lashes." (To be continued.) )
