Chapter 12 Xuanwu Mandate
When the Wind Moon Mercenary Group was developing steadily, when the adventurers thought it was a big deal, and when the people in the north thought that the north was still safe, the heavens said that it was just a joke.
Yes, just when everyone thought that it was impossible for the demonic beast to stay in the Tianxuan Realm, an incident of a demonic beast attacking an adventurer occurred. The victim was a three-star mercenary group, and they were just doing a simple collection mission at the time, and they also thought that this mission would end easily.
Later, their collection task was indeed easily completed. But after the end, something unexpected happened - a monster appeared in front of them.
They are a small mercenary group, and they also know that their strength is insufficient, so they take the initiative to learn a lot about things like demonic qi that can endanger their lives. So, the first time they saw the beast, they knew it was something dangerous. So, they immediately chose to flee.
Fortunately, they chose to flee directly, otherwise it would not have been just a matter of demonic qi infection in the end. Because the monster did not disappear after two or three breaths, as the rumors say, but kept chasing them, as if they were prey.
Desperate to escape, they panicked, and ran to the danger zone, which was the territory of many powerful spirit beasts. But maybe it was also their luck, although they attracted the attention of those spirit beasts, they were not interested in this mercenary group, but they were somewhat interested in the demon beast that was chasing after them.
Or more accurately, they actually have a natural aversion to the demonic energy, so they ignore the normal creatures before. Then, those spirit beasts did some blocking, but because they didn't take it too seriously, and the demonic beasts didn't fight with them at all, the spirit beasts didn't block it at all.
In the end, the monster caught up with them again and attacked them, and the mercenary group was lucky enough to run to a small branch of the adventurer's union, and as soon as the people of the branch understood the situation, they reported directly to the headquarters, and then the headquarters immediately dispatched people to save their lives in time, but there was no way to get rid of the demonic qi for the time being, so it could only be temporarily suppressed and not allowed to spread.
Shortly thereafter, the same incident occurred several more times. And it's not one after the other, but multiple cases occur at the same time, and there are signs of gradual increase.
The deterioration of the situation soon spread to the Fengyue mercenary group, which was bent on development. Hearing that there are many victims who are now plagued by demonic energy, the Seven of the Wind Victims held a small meeting, and then they asked the Adventurer's Guild to release a message: The Wind Moon Mercenary Group can treat patients infected with demonic energy, and they can come if they need it. Finally, there is a special note: there is no charge, but the treatment must be done by them.
Although this news has a feeling of compulsion, the Fengyue Mercenary Group is now a four-star special mercenary group, and their credibility is completely credible. In addition, the others had no choice for the time being, and with the idea of being a dead horse as a live horse doctor, they came to the Fengyue Mercenary Group to ask for treatment.
When they came, they learned that the only requirement was that no one else was allowed to watch the treatment, and they were not allowed to ask about the results other than the results. This kind of words made those people think that the Fengyue Mercenary Group would use some strange methods, and it also made them a little bottomless. However, they eventually agreed, after all, there is no other way to do it now.
Then, something happened that made everyone feel unreliable. The process of treatment by the Fengyue Mercenary Group is extremely simple, with three treatment rooms, and the treatment process is basically the same. Send the person in, and after a quarter of an hour, send the person out, saying that the treatment is complete.
Can it be cured in such a little time? This made the adventurers who were tortured by the demonic qi very unconvinced, but all the patients who came out really didn't have any demonic qi on their bodies, they were just still in a coma. In this case, it can't be said that they haven't been cured? The demonic energy is gone, and it can be said that the treatment is useless.
However, this fear basically disappeared completely after two or three days. Because two days later, the healers woke up one after another, and the demonic qi on their bodies showed no signs of recurrence. At this time, everyone has a lot of trust in the Fengyue Mercenary Group, and the reputation of the Fengyue Mercenary Group is also rising.
At the same time, although the treatment method of the Fengyue Mercenary Group is a little unreassuring, but the treatment is good and there is no charge, which makes the Fengyue Mercenary Group more and more highly evaluated among adventurers, and some people even go to the union to ask for a higher rating when they see that the Fengyue Mercenary Group is only four stars.
Then, the little brother said, "Do you want them to take on the task of insufficient strength and then fall?" calmed their impulse. After calming down, I remembered the hard condition for promotion, that is, there must be at least one member of the mercenary group who matches the level of the mercenary group.
As for the five-star rating given to the Fengyue Mercenary Group before, it was purely because the value of Fengyue was too great, so there was a special exception. Later, I found that their strength was not enough, so I urgently retreated.
However, the five-star is decided by several high-level officials, and it cannot be ignored, so the Fengyue Mercenary Group still retains a five-star primary level at the highest level.
Back to the adventurers, because of the hard requirements for the mercenary group to upgrade their level, and the reputation of the Fengyue Mercenary Group for this treatment, the Fengyue Mercenary Group still has an open recruitment channel, so the adventurers thought about it.
However, this enthusiasm was quickly extinguished, because the recruitment criteria of the Fengyue Mercenary Group were too difficult. They don't have any special standards, only a sentence "how strong the strength is to show the corresponding strength", and then the standard is naturally high.
As for those who shouted "This standard can't be completed at all", Hua Xi and Wang Ling, who were relatively idle, directly covered it up. Now, those who can't do it can only say that they are weak.
After two basins of cold water were splashed, most people calmed down. And after calming down, they thought about a question: how did the Fengyue mercenary group save people.
Judging from the performance, the method used by the Fengyue Mercenary Group should be something that is not visible, or something that is inconvenient to show...... However, what unsightly things can people in the psychic realm have, those things that can make people blush, and those things in the psychic realm can't be used.
At the same time, the number of people who are harmed by demonic qi is increasing, and there are only three who can be treated, so they can't be cured at all. So, one night, Feng Di, Yueli and Xuanmo contacted each other.
Soon, the phantom of Xuanmo appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
"I'll go, why are you like this, you look like you haven't slept in years......"
This was Xuan Mo's first sentence after seeing the three of them.
"Xuanmo, you are really an incompetent guardian beast......"
Yueli came directly to say this.
"Uh...... What am I doing to be incompetent?"
Xuan Mo really doesn't understand why she's incompetent, she doesn't seem to have done anything stupid lately.
"It's just because you haven't done anything, there are signs of a large number of demonic qi activities in the entire northern border, and many people have been infected by demonic qi, don't say you don't know this. ”
Even if it is a wind death, it is a little angry.
"Oh, that's it...... Isn't it you? What you can cure is not a problem, and besides, you can take advantage of this opportunity to earn a good reputation. ”
After speaking, Feng Yan was stunned, and Yueli said softly, "Lean". When the hell are the two of them...... No, they have black water, and it's normal to be a coolie in Xuanwu, but what about Yemo? It doesn't matter!
"Okay, okay, I won't talk to you, I know about it, but for some inconvenient reasons, I can't do it directly. Recently, I have been looking for a solution to this matter, and I have found a suitable one.
By the way, for convenience, their identity is also Xuanwu messenger...... Also, I'll ...... you both."
"Don't. ”
"I refuse. ”
"Chief. ”
Before Xuan Mo finished speaking, he was directly rejected by the two.
"No, I got a total of a hundred candidates, and there may be God Realm cultivators among them, you don't want this? Aren't you recruiting? These people are all resources!"
"Don't do that. ”
"The main thing is that we are afraid of trouble. ”
After saying this, Yueli explained the reason:
"Xuanmo, you see, from the beginning, the two of us were Xuanwu messengers, and we only have such a little cultivation, so it will definitely become a topic of conversation if others know about it...... Although this is very convenient when doing things, the problem is that if we have to go through the experience, we may encounter a lot of help beyond the unexpected, which is not good for our experience.
Now that you have a total of more than 100 numbers, we are a little special, or we can only say that we are lucky, and this identity can definitely be used, and it is convenient and there will be no unnecessary trouble.
But you have to let them take the two of us as the leader, not to mention that the others are not convinced, and then convince the sensation caused by the anger, at least in the north, we are 'not able to live in peace', but the people in the north take you as the guardian saint, and if you make us like this, our status will be one level lower than yours, in case some people come out to worship us...... Isn't that foolishness? Not to mention the kind of problem I just mentioned. ”
After Yueli finished explaining, Xuanmo fell into deep thought. But after a short while, Xuan Mo asked a question:
"Would you be willing to have the kind of problem you said you were going to have?"
"Don't do that. ”
"At least until I have the ability or the right to speak to stop some people from interfering in our actions, right?"
"Hmm...... Then I understand, to put it bluntly, you are afraid that there will be too many people who will take the initiative to help you during the training, which will disturb your normal cultivation...... Well...... That's not a lot that needs to be changed...... By the way, this thing is for you ......."
As he spoke, an empty shell like the Blackwater Necklace appeared on the side of Wind Death and Yueli.
"This is for Yemo, a little bit of his demonic energy is stored in it, and if there is any problem in the future, it will be easy to fool, and no matter how bad those people are, they will always have to give me a face. ”
Stormy accepted the shell, and then asked:
"Xuanmo, why are you so good to us?"
"As one of my few friends, of course I have to be nice to you. ”
Xuan Mo said such a sentence almost without much thought.
Then the scene fell silent. Feng Yan didn't believe that just being a "friend" could make Xuanwu do this. To put it mildly, Xuanwu is now on call, which is not something that can be done between friends.
"At least I'm saying this from the bottom of my heart, I really don't have many friends, you are really one of my few friends. ”
When she said this, Xuan Mo's attitude was very serious, and she definitely didn't just say it casually.
"Shhh...... It's really a problem...... Xuanmo, what do we need you to care about?"
At this time, Yueli was ready to talk about her identity as a traverser. After all, this identity is the only thing that might attract the attention of a Patronus or something.
However, Xuan Mo just shook his head:
"These things will be known when you ought to know. ”
"Oh...... Scales, you come out and tell me about the situation. ”
And then the scales really came out.
"What's the situation? Oh...... I don't know if you're special or not, but the master, as the lord of the green dragon, is very special. ”
Scales said this proudly.
"Cut, I thought you knew some inside information as a divine beast of the same level. ”
At this time, the scales looked a little sad:
"I was kicked out, and I don't have much status in the dragon clan, even if I have an insider, it's not something I can know......"
At this moment, Yueli stopped asking, but it was the first time she knew that the little heart of Cang Liang was so unpressed. However, Yueli also understood that it was not long after returning from the Dragon Clan's Sacred Domain, and it was indeed easy to think too much.
Then, after a little more gossip, the four went their separate ways.
The next day, the whole northern border was boiling. To be precise, it was the monastic world that was boiling. They rarely wake up early at this time, simply because of a dream. But this dream is a Xuanwu dream, and the meaning is not ordinary.
In the dream, Xuanwu appeared in his real body, and he didn't do anything, so he said a few words, which roughly meant: Xuanwu scattered some of his power throughout the northern realm, turned into a black droplet, and those who found them, if they could find the container that carried them, would become Xuanwu's messenger. Also, its power can resist demonic energy.
For the people of the North, Xuanwu is their most revered god, and it is a supreme honor to be a messenger of God. Moreover, there are no rules for this, and if some forces have a "Xuanwu Messenger", their status will rise in a straight line. Even if you don't talk about it, it's enough to just resist the demonic energy. So, whatever the purpose, the monks of the north took action.
And for Feng Yan and Yueli, who knew the inside story, it was Xuan Mo who casually threw a hundred drops of black water in the north. As for the containers...... After looking at the thing given to Yemo, they could guess what it was.
Although on the surface it is a matter of luck and power, and nothing else matters, but this is certainly impossible. After all, if you get the black water, it must be to deal with the demonic energy, and people with bad intentions will definitely not be able to get it.
However, these have nothing to do with Fengyue Pavilion, their current purpose is still to develop, so the black water will be let go of others to rob.
