Second Night: Tokai New Edition
Waking up from sleep, everyone has a feeling of the aftermath of the catastrophe.
Last night was too exciting, after leaving Wang Ping's Shu army camp, the Donghai team found the war horse that Zhan Musi had prepared for them in advance in a nearby grove. If it weren't for this preparation, they might have really planted it this time.
Even so, they were still chased hundreds of miles away by the perseverance of Jia Junshi and the cavalry of the Shu army, until they saw the Wei army camp in the distance, and the Nanhai team retreated unwillingly.
When they rushed into Zhang He's camp in embarrassment and were almost killed on the spot as assassins of the Shu army, they realized that they were still wearing the military uniforms of the Shu army in their hurry. Li Sha was also too tired to do it, so she simply treated a few seriously injured people, and then fell asleep with everyone.
This sleep directly brought them back to the "real" world.
The rest of the teammates woke up and went to wash up and prepare breakfast, and after a night of fierce fighting, sometimes the work in the "real" world was a kind of mental relaxation. Compared to the pressures of life and death in the dream world, the pressures of urban life can basically be ignored, and they now only think that work is a way to enjoy life.
Watching their teammates leave the "collective dormitory" one by one, the three stinkers sat on the recliner very tacitly and never moved their nests.
It wasn't until everyone left the Chase bunk room, known as the "collective dormitory", that Sima Fuqiang said, "This night has gained a lot. Renwei: Your 'fighting' should be fine, right? ”
Zhang Wei nodded, "The 'Murderous Qi Release' has basically been mastered, and it should be able to be used as a skill expansion to support my 'fighting' promotion to the A rank." ”
"You seem to have forgotten to call Tiger Girl." Huang Zhi reminded him, "Be careful, she will fly to Lucheng today to find you." ”
Zhang Wei took the satellite phone handed over by the captain with a wry smile, dialed a string of numbers, and at the same time muttered in his mouth, "'Reality' is not reality, is this call still meaningful?" ”
The phone was quickly connected, and the tiger girl over there saw the phone without caller ID, and excitedly answered it as soon as possible, "Ren Wei, you are really fine!" Great, did you get hurt? ”
Zhang Wei held the phone in his right hand, and while answering a few words to the girl, he kept stretching and retracting four crystal clear "glass claws" in his hand, like a switchblade, flashing a dazzling cold light under the light of the "collective dormitory". Because it was confirmed that the "real" world was not reality, and Li Sha had released the "healing" skill in "reality", it was not surprising that Zhang Wei could use the "claw" skill freely at this time.
Sima Fuqiang looked at his constantly expanding paws in a daze, which further subverted the meaning of his existence in this world. Exclusive skills can be used casually, and he can't deceive himself anymore, so how can he pretend that this world is "reality" and continue his research work?
Huang Zhi smiled self-deprecatingly, "How good it is to be able to use skills, it will be much easier for me to talk about business in the future, how can there be customers who can't handle it." I won the performance championship this month, and the money I earned alone was enough to feed everyone. ”
"That's right." Sima Fuqiang knew that Huang Zhi was enlightening himself, "I won't study history in the future, so I will rely on you to support me." ”
At this time, Zhang Wei also finished comforting the tiger girl, just hung up the phone, and answered, "It's really not good, I can still rob or be a professional killer or something." Hey! With this glass claw, which security equipment can't pass? ”
"You're still a veteran? Think of these crooked ways! After all, Sima Fuqiang still can't get rid of the sense of justice and morality in the "real" world.
"This soldier is not necessarily true or false, and it is a question whether my real name is Zhang Wei." Zhang Wei sat back in the recliner in frustration.
"Of course your real name is not Zhang Wei, it's only been a few years, and you forgot your old book? Your name is Zhang Zhiwei. Huang Zhi jokingly reminded him.
Regardless of whether this so-called "reality" is real or not, after all, in this "reality" dream, the two of them are indeed good brothers who grew up together. No matter how much time passes faster in this "real" world than it really is, it can't change their shared experience.
"Okay, Brother Huang Zhiwei. If I make a big vote, I will definitely be indispensable to your benefits. "Zhang Wei is not such a decadent person, and after being jailed, his mood has not changed much.
"Come on, money is something outside of the body. At this time, I can be considered to have completely understood the true meaning of this sentence, and the prosperity and wealth of this world are just a dream. Being a beggar is nothing more than that, it's boring! Among the three, it was still Sima Fuqiang who was the most stimulated.
"But then again, since 'reality' is also a dream, there is one thing that is quite strange......" Zhang Wei suddenly mentioned with a solemn face.
"What did you say?" The other two couldn't help but temporarily abandon the negative emotions in their hearts and focus on the topic Zhang Wei said.
Zhang Wei saw that the two of them were waiting for the next with wide eyes, but he didn't know how to speak, this matter must not be said so bluntly, otherwise the dream world would definitely be able to deal with him in harmony. And this matter is just a conjecture on his part, and it hurts to say it before there is no evidence.
So in the expectant eyes of the two, he hesitated for a while, subconsciously stretched out his "glass claws", scratched on the armrests of the chaise longue, and made a piercing "prickly" sound, like a cat grinding its claws.
"What the hell are you trying to say?" Even Huang Zhi was anxious at this moment.
Zhang Wei had no choice but to point to the top of his head, and made a sealing movement in front of his mouth, and then shrugged helplessly, indicating that he couldn't speak.
Sima Fuqiang and Huang Zhi had already straightened their bodies and were anxious for a long time, just waiting for such a result, and suddenly collapsed back into the recliner in disappointment.
As for Zhang Wei's meaning, both of them understood it, and it involved the secrets of the dream world. It stands to reason that this can be expressed through hidden head code, but after all, Zhang Wei does not read as many books as the two of them, and his eloquence is far from being as good as his skills, and many things can be imagined, but if you want him to use hidden head code, it will be a little difficult.
Sima Fuqiang and Huang Zhi communicated with each other in hidden words, and it was not just some nonsense that did not match the preface and afterword, they had to find a relatively reliable thing as a disguise for the conversation, otherwise, with the degree of monitoring of them in the dream world now, they would definitely be able to find clues to their exploration of the secrets of the dream world from those inconsequential nonsense.
Since Zhang Wei joined the discussion between the two of them, he has never opened his mouth, and always as an audience, he nods or shakes his head at most to express his opinion. If he really relied on hidden words to express his thoughts clearly, it would be so difficult for him, and there was almost no possibility of doing it.
It is more likely that the surname is that he slipped out of his mouth without paying attention, and did not hide his head in secret words, but directly expressed the thoughts in his heart. The consequences of that would be unimaginable, and it could only be that the level of the Donghai team in the dream world would be promoted to a higher rank again, and more serious punishments would be accepted, or even directly harmonized by the dream world.
"Forget it, let's not talk about it yet." Zhang Wei stood up dejectedly, preparing to leave the "collective dormitory" and go to the restaurant for dinner. "It's just my guess at the moment, and I can't do it for sure. I'll wait until I slowly observe for a while, think about it for a while, and tell you when I have definite evidence. ”
Sima Fuqiang and Huang Zhi glanced at each other helplessly, and that was all there was to it now.
(Old wind note: What a big pit, you must hate itchy, right?) Don't blame Zhang Wei for not being able to hide his head and whisper, and don't blame Lao Feng for deliberately leaving suspense, this really can't be said. But the old wind doesn't say, you can guess for yourself. Seriously recalling the past plot, in fact, Lao Feng has already laid the foreshadowing for this "strange thing" in the previous article. It's not bad to make a post and prosper the discussion forum. ======================== the dividing line between dreams and reality======================= in the blink of an eye, the day of the "real" world passed, and the people in the dream ushered in another night of dreams.
Coming out of the town guard's mansion, everyone happily hugged Zhang Wei and walked towards the town office, ready to witness the birth of the first A-rank combat skill of the East China Sea team.
As soon as they reached the gate of the town office, they were blocked by a person at the gate and could not enter.
"Isn't this Miss Dong'er? Got something to go out? Huang Zhi snorted.
Recently, since they have been fighting abroad for most of their time, they have had a lot less contact with this woman.
Dong'er glanced at him coquettishly, and looked at Li Sha, who was standing in the back row with Huang Ying, feeling uncomfortable for a while. If it weren't for the fact that he had experienced so many lives and deaths with Huang Zhi and was full of confidence in his firm intentions, Li Sha would really have to worry that her boyfriend's heart would be hooked by this woman at this time.
When it comes to the looks of Li Sha and Dong'er, they are almost comparable, but because their surnames are different, they show different charms. Dong'er is charming, Li Sha is pure, if the two stand together, it is inseparable. But at this moment, he is in the dream of power, and it is difficult to say whether this Dong'er is a real person. Even if it is, the name "Dong'er" is not her real identity.
In the face of such an illusory existence, no matter how much Dong'er is playful, Huang Zhi is very difficult to be moved.
In fact, Dong'er didn't care if Huang Zhi would be tempted by herself, and she had an edict to read at this time, "Fengtian carriers, the emperor said." Recently, the Eastern Navy cooperated with the Lizhou Capital Army and made a great contribution to the process of clearing out the rebels in Wei County. From the siege of Weidongguan to the end of the subjugation of the whole territory of Wei County, it lasted more than two months, and the meritorious achievements were outstanding and specially commended. ”
Sima Fuqiang was overjoyed when he heard this, and his unintentional move to train the Eastern Navy has now become the reason for the edict of the Dongzhou Imperial Court.
He stared with bated breath and listened carefully to Dong'er's announcement of the commendation given by the Dongzhou Imperial Court.
"First, the administrative level of Donghai Town was raised to the C rank, allowing the construction of an outer city wall, the wall is six meters high, and the size of the city shall not be greater than five miles. Three new city gates are allowed to be built, the wall is three meters high, and the scale of the city shall not be greater than one mile. ”
With this authorization, Donghai Town can finally build an outer city, and the three fortresses on the official road can also be built justifiably. The East China Sea Territory can finally form a relatively in-depth defense system, so that it will not be opened to the Dongwei Pass or the Lifu Nanguan to the north to reach its hinterland.
"Second, Sima Fuqiang, the captain of the East China Sea team, awarded the post of county guard of the East China Sea, and led the four products under Huaihua Zhonglang General, and the officials under him were all promoted to the first rank."
Sima Fuqiang remembered the title of "county order" that embarrassed him, and he was finally able to get rid of it at this time, and it was better to hear "county guard". This official position of "county guard" originally originated in the Warring States Period, and was changed to Taishou in the Han Dynasty, and then to the prefect in the Ming and Qing dynasties. The county is an administrative level below the state and above the county, which did not exist in the Tang Dynasty, and it seems that the Dongzhou mainland did not completely copy the Sui and Tang dynasties.
"Third, the southern part of Wei County will be placed under the jurisdiction of Donghai County and take over the southern Zhuchengguan."
This is unexpectedly heavy news, which means that except for Tail City, all areas in the south of Tail County that have been taken by the Eastern Navy have been included in the territory of Donghai County.
The southern part of this county has always been a fierce people, disobedient to the government's discipline, even if it is recovered now, due to population loss, it is basically abandoned there, and there is no great value. And it is out of reach of the whip from the state capital, and it can't be controlled at all, and if it continues like this for a long time, sooner or later new rebel forces will have to grow, so it is better to be placed under the jurisdiction of Donghai County and let them suppress the local area.
But this was only a superficial statement, and Sima Fuqiang thought of another possibility, and the East China Sea territory could further expand its territory by conquering the surrounding areas by force.
Donghai from a town to a county, from a county to a county, all fought one battle after another, except for Donghai Town at night, not an inch of land was given to them by the Dongzhou Imperial Court in vain. Then if they continue to adhere to this path of military expansion, then sooner or later they will be able to develop into Donghai Prefecture, or even surpass the state capital. The Dongzhou Continent is really a place where warlords divide it, and everything relies on fists to speak.
"For the rest, Donghai Town is allowed to add five more functional buildings, the town office and medical center are allowed to be upgraded to the C rank, and the rest of the built and unbuilt buildings are allowed to be upgraded to the C rank."
The latter news was all within Sima Fuqiang's expectations, and he didn't care too much, usually these things were left to the Council of Elders to deal with, and now all his thoughts were on how to further expand the East China Sea.
After reading the edict, Dong'er threw another wink at everyone, and walked towards the Council of Elders with grace, obviously to fulfill his duties as a director.
In the dream of the East China Sea team, the people discussed the content of the edict in full swing for a while, and then recalled the purpose of coming to the town office, and hurriedly pushed Zhang Wei to the counter of each person's business, and each person gave him 2,000 points, which was enough to make up the 16,000 points needed to promote "fighting" to the A rank.
While the receptionist was accepting the skill improvement matter, everyone was watching nervously, for fear that a sentence would come out of her mouth that they had heard several times before, "I'm sorry, you don't have the A-rank skill expansion at the moment, and you failed to upgrade your 'fighting' skill to the A-rank." ”
Fortunately, the receptionist said something else this time, "Improve the 'fighting' skill, condition review, skill level: B rank, skill type: bring your own combat skills, new comprehension skill expansion: murderous outflow, proficiency requirements reached, upgrade points: 16000 points." All conditions are met, and 'Fighting' is promoted to an A-rank combat skill. ”
"Put on a show!" Xiaofeng couldn't wait to call out first.
"Hey, hey! Then please be a guinea pig! Zhang Wei looked at him with an evil expression, and suddenly released the skill expansion of "Murderous Qi Release" at him.
Xiaofeng only felt a bone-chilling chill envelop him in an instant, and for a while he felt a trembling feeling in his hands and feet.
In the blink of an eye, Zhang Wei withdrew the skill expansion effect, looked at Xiaofeng's slightly pale face and asked, "How do you feel?" ”
"It's so scary, I thought you were going to kill me!" Xiaofeng glanced at him with palpitations, and wiped the cold sweat that broke out on his forehead at some point.
"That's it?" Zhang Wei was obviously not very happy with this result.
If you can only make your opponent scared, then this A-rank "fight" is not much better than the B-rank. In the past, he could also make the opponent in front of him feel fear, but he needed to kill a few people to show the opponent first. If the effect of "murderous release" can only weaken the morale of the opponent, then Zhang Wei is really at a loss if he uses this opportunity to improve his "fighting" skills. It is better to continue to stay in the B rank and look for other breakthrough directions, but there are still infinite possibilities for development.
Sima Fuqiang was still thinking about expanding the territory of the East China Sea at this time, and he didn't pay much attention to Zhang Wei's affairs.
But Huang Zhi had an idea, "I'm afraid it's not that simple, we can try it by simulating actual combat." ”
At his suggestion, everyone immediately set off for the Colonel Yard outside the town. Originally, Sima Fuqiang wanted to take Huang Zhi to the elders to talk about things, but seeing that his teammates were excited to study Zhang Wei's A-rank "martial arts" first, he went to the school field with everyone, after all, the expansion of the East China Sea was not in such a hurry.
After arriving at the destination, the teammates took turns to engage in a wheel battle with Zhang Wei to experience the difference between the A-rank "fighting" and the past.
Since most of them are not the opponents of the agile Zhang Wei, they are basically the same as at the beginning, they are all "killed" in seconds, and the difference is that the time difference is about one second. This may be a good effect, but apparently Huang Zhi also thinks that it is not enough.
"Xiaofeng, you do it again, use skills." Huang Zhi looked at Xiaofeng, who was a little reluctant.
Xiaofeng muttered, "Why do you always want to abuse me?" Hmph, I'll run after you! ”
After the two stood face to face five steps apart, Zhang Wei was about to pounce on Xiaofeng to clean up. Xiaofeng prepared to launch the "speed" effect as planned, preparing to smear oil on the soles of his feet, relying on the speed advantage to make the opponent have no chance to shoot.
At this moment, Zhang Wei launched the "Murderous Qi Release", and the biting chill enveloped Xiaofeng, and he suddenly found that Zhang Wei was chasing his footsteps faster.
"Stop!" Xiaofeng squatted on the ground scoundrelly, and his hands made a pause in motion.
"It's just that you have a lot of problems, what's wrong?" Zhang Wei asked puzzled.
Xiaofeng asked unhappily, "How did you get faster?" Still don't let people live? ”
"Going faster? No? Zhang Wei looked down at his legs in confusion, and then turned his head to ask for the opinions of his teammates.
The teammates present shook their heads one after another, they didn't see that Zhang Wei's speed had changed at all.
"How is that possible?" Xiaofeng protested indignantly, "You haven't gotten faster, so is it because I'm slowing down?" ”
Sima Fuqiang began to roll up his sleeves, "You foolish guy, aren't you just moving at a normal speed, where is there anything that gets faster and slower?" ”
Seeing that the captain wanted to come over and slap the back of his head, Xiaofeng hurriedly explained, "It can't be a normal speed, but I activated my exclusive skill!" ”
"You activated the 'speed'?" Zhang Wei asked.
"yes." Xiaofeng nodded affirmatively.
"Come on, come on, do it again, you start the 'speed' first, run past me and have a look." Zhang Wei took a few steps back and beckoned to Xiaofeng.
Although Xiaofeng didn't quite understand, he still did it. After activating the "speed" effect, he ran past Zhang Wei at a speed of more than 30 meters per second, and instantly came to the edge of the school field. Turning his head and asking aloud, "It's over, what's wrong?" ”
Zhang Wei scratched his head in embarrassment, "It's too close to catch you, do it again." You're coming from where you are. ”
Xiaofeng kept chattering in his mouth as he launched his "speed" again and rushed over. But this time it was different, just as he passed by Zhang Wei's side, the "murderous outward release" accurately captured his figure, and the biting chill hit again.
Xiaofeng only felt that his feet were soft, and he could no longer maintain a high rhythm to move forward, but his upper body maintained the habit of rushing forward at high speed. As a result, he ended up quite miserable after disrupting the rhythm, and suddenly became a gourd rolling on the ground, and his head was broken and bleeding.
Li Sha saw that there was an accident and hurried over to treat Xiaofeng.
Xiaofeng whimpered and protested, "Aren't you bullying!" Scare me when I'm running as fast as I can, and make my legs weak! ”
"That's not right!" Zhang Wei has already figured out a little way, "You come to the waning moon, you launch 'brute force' against the open space, smash a hammer and see." ”
Wanyue walked up to Zhang Wei suspiciously, raised a sledgehammer and shouted, and slammed the hammer into the school grounds, looking like it was about to open a big hole in the ground.
At this moment, Zhang Wei once again launched the "Murderous Qi Release", targeting the remnant moon.
Wanyue actually felt that her hands were weak, and the sledgehammer flew out of her hands, almost hitting the onlookers of the Eastern Navy.
"What's going on?" Wanyue also looked at Zhang Wei quite puzzled.
"Again, this time I'll use 'Murderous Unleash' on you first, and then you can activate the skill." The corners of Zhang Wei's mouth had risen significantly, and it was obvious that he had discovered the magic of this skill expansion.
Wanyue had to do it again, and this time he finally sensed something was wrong, "Damn! 'Brute force' can't be unleashed! ”
(To be continued)
