Chapter 6: The Palace of Memory, Erudito Reserve

The morning light shone into the filthy and shabby room, and there was dirt and oil everywhere. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's not that the hostess of this house is not diligent and hardworking, but here are all remnants wallowing in the garbage heap of Wizard City, and no matter how much they clean up, the room environment will not be so clean and tidy.

In the cruel times, although the life of the people was hard, they still lived patiently.

Doodoo ...... The water in the tin kettle was boiling, and the blonde, emaciated woman took the tin kettle and brewed it bowl after bowl, and began to push open the door one by one and tell her men and children to get up.

Jade had a separate little room, for she was a thirteen-year-old girl, whose eyes were bright and blue, and her skin was as smooth and delicate as porcelain.

The whole family knows that Jade is the hope of the family to change their fate, it is the best life to be a lover to a spell caster's apprentice, and if not, it is also possible to marry a promising professional, although there is a high probability that she will become a young widow soon after marriage, and a few years later she will be forced by life to stand on the street and become a wild prostitute, but what if that professional lives long enough and becomes strong enough?

Jade might even become the wife of a superior family, perhaps even better than being the caster's lover, but the odds are as low as winning the lottery.

The most tragic life is to marry a scavenger like her mother, find a harvest in the hidden and dangerous Wizard City garbage dump, and occasionally have to go to the dark realm to gamble and scavenge for her life, in that case it is almost inevitable that Jade will become a widow and then become a prostitute, and the possibility of breaking away from her poor class is too small.

Thinking about her daughter's future mate selection conditions every day has almost become a daily habit for Jade's mother.

There is no need to doubt that for poor families, marrying a daughter is selling a daughter, and whether or not they can be sold for a good price is related to the family's situation and even survival in the future.

"Jade, Jade, get up, are you still sleeping?"

The thin blonde woman knocked on the door of the room, and she faintly heard a strange sound from her daughter's room, and then the woman pushed the door open. The next moment, he collapsed on the ground in extreme fright......

In the room, her daughter, the beautiful Jade, twisted her body like a spider clinging to the corner of the wall, and the girl heard the sound of a hundred and eighty degrees turn her head to look at her mother, and her original blue eyes were now filled with rich inky black, and the tendons around her eyes were bulging with blue and black.

It's like the white-eyed vision in the 21st century Earth anime Naruto, but people have white eyes, and she has a pitch-black demon's eye.

The girl clings to the corner of the wall like a spider with a twisted body, her mouth bites a fat mouse that keeps dripping blood, looking at her mother, Jade smiled slightly, Kaba bites the mouse's head, and the dark aura spreads wildly on the girl's body, weird and terrifying.

"Ah......... Samurai, go and call the samurai!"

The terrible exclamations and cries resounded in that slum area, and in the compound of the slum not far away, more than 30 sturdy young men were practicing their martial arts with horses and fists under the guidance of the head of the slum.

Most of these low-level members are yellow-skinned, or simply Chinese, and a few blacks and whites are mixed in, all of them are tall and strong, and their quality is indeed good enough.

In principle, the Chinese warriors will give priority to recruiting Chinese remnants, followed by yellow-skinned, and then earth remnants, and recently even orcs with excellent quality have begun to be accepted, but at present, they are very rare.

With the echo of the shrill siren, these strong guys in training were alert, and one by one they scattered in all directions, put on armor and picked up long and short weapons, and within five minutes they gathered to kill the place of the incident, and in the face of this kind of thing, the remnants of the earth could only turn to organizations such as the Chinese Warrior Association.

The Wizarding City Council?

The door can't even get in, the poor people of the earth are dead, and those cold-blooded wizards won't blink their eyes because of this.

Of course, the Chinese Samurai Association itself is also quite xenophobic, some time ago there was a little Japanese old man in this subdivision who wanted to open a martial arts gym and guard one side at the same time, and was smashed by a group of people from the Chinese Samurai Association.

Even if we can't control it, we won't allow you to come and divide the forces.

However, later the little old man's martial arts hall was still opened, because he himself joined the Chinese Warriors Association, and now he teaches all the students assigned by the association.

The martial arts of the disciples trained in the martial arts hall and the overall business situation will become indicators that determine the status and salary of the Japanese old man in the guild in the future.

............

Chinese Warriors Association, Headquarters.

Zhu Peng stood on top of the arena with his hands behind his back, closed his eyes and pondered the melee just now, summing up his understanding and gains.

Those warriors who were defeated by him, except for a few who were seriously injured and were directly carried away by the medical team, the rest of those who had the ability to move had to bow respectfully in front of Zhu Peng before leaving, as a sign of gratitude for the guidance of the superiors.

It is not uncommon for people like this in the Chinese Warriors Association to besiege and kill high-level targets in complex terrain, and if you get some experience from Zhu Peng, you will shed less blood in the future, and you can even save your own life.

The fierce martial wind makes the remnants of the earth respect the strong more and more, and look up to the strong.

"You should prepare a weapon for yourself, now you can grab a weapon in battle and play it, it is indeed your outstanding style of pure yang Wuji and cultivation of a hundred schools, but with a good set of equipment, you can greatly improve your combat strength. Yang Caier came to Zhu Peng wearing a red light armor and pressing the hilt of the gorgeous sheathed long sword on her waist.

"Okay, I've been salivating over the Blood River Sword in your hand for a long time...... Oh. ”

Before Zhu Peng's words were finished, he was already slapped on his thigh by Yang Cai'er with a wrinkled nose and a scabbard. Of course, there was just laughter between the two, Yang Caier didn't use any force, and Zhu Peng didn't dodge.

β€œ...... Now the strength is promoted too fast, and it is not good to spend a lot of effort to match equipment, and the famous products of the legendary grade have always been wolves with more meat and less meat, and a large number of fourth-order demigods obviously like to collect them without using them, and the legendary equipment circulating on the market is either not easy to use, or the price is so expensive that it is to death, and the eight masters in the meeting are not equipped with legendary equipment, let alone me. Zhu Peng and Yang Caier chatted and laughed side by side, the man was gentle and calm, and the woman was beautiful and delicate.

"Uh, looking at the situation around us, we will not cause misunderstandings when we get so close, and it will delay Sister Cai'er's lifelong event, right?" Zhu Peng had a keen sense of spirituality, lowered his voice and asked with a smile.

"Have you ever seen a man marry bread? I'm a blood clan now, it's not that I can't find a human to marry in the future, but that human must be much stronger than me, otherwise when we sleep together in bed at night, I will suddenly be hungry...... It's easy to get bloody. As she spoke, Yang Cai'er yelled at Zhu Peng slightly.

Her black and white eyes were red and bloody, and her small mouth stretched out of her mouth with extremely sharp canine teeth, revealing her identity as a vampire.

"You're right, none of the eight seniors in the guild are equipped with legendary weapons. At present, as far as I know, only the reincarnated Dragon King Chahuang Keman has a fourth-order legendary big axe thunder bite blade in his hand, the future Bright Buddha Fuhui Elder has a third-order legendary iron ring stick in his hand, and Han Fangxue, the Canghai Sword Saint, has a tailor-made fourth-order epic famous sword Hanhai Sword in his hand. Compared with other schools or organizations, the foundation of our Chinese Warrior Association is too thin, although it now also has the ability to forge legendary weapons, but the production cycle is long, and the craftsmanship is not excellent, even if you apply for it now, and when you forge your own legendary weapons, I am afraid that you will be a fourth-order demigod at that time. Of course, you still have to fill out the application form, which is one of the benefits you have as a Chinese Samurai Guild Danshi, the right to buy legendary weapons at cost price. ”

"Forget it, I'd better apply through the 'Enchantment Department' after joining the Hand of Sin, or go to the Dark Second Realm to brush up on the modernization equipment after being promoted to an official wizard, if I can brush out a dark gold outfit, the effect will not be much worse. Regarding Yang Caier's proposal, Zhu Peng rubbed his nose and said his plan.

He has channels to get things, Zhu Peng is not willing to always draw blood from the Chinese Warriors Association, Li Jingxuan gave Zhu Peng the permission to borrow a large amount of interest-free loans, Zhu Peng has never used it, on the one hand, it is not very useful, on the other hand, it is also not to cause a big burden to the financially tight Chinese warriors, the Chinese Warriors Association is operated by a group of warriors as the main body, although it has maintained its bloody nature and strong combat ability, but the capital chain has not been very rich, if it were not for Li Jingxuan's son Li Ce is a business wizard, strategizing to adjust the entire guild, the flow of funds of the Chinese Warriors Association may have been broken many times。

"A dark gold suit was brushed out in the second realm, from the opening of the five realms to the present, is there a dark gold suit that has burst out in the second realm?" Just when Yang Cai'er was about to advise Zhu Peng, the phone on her waist suddenly rang, and after pressing the connect button, a calm and clear report from a professional came from the other side of the phone.

"Okay, I see. ”

Her expression quickly became serious, Yang Caier hung up the phone after listening to the report, she lowered her head slightly and thought about it, and then suddenly looked up and said to Zhu Peng:

"Two things. First, there is a school dispute in the Foreign Guest Hotel, although it seems that it is not directly related to the samurai association, but after all, it happened in our land, and it doesn't matter if it doesn't work. Second, there was an evil invasion in the Wizard City, possessing a white girl, and the garrison there asked for backup. Two things, if you don't have anything to do in a hurry now, help me solve one thing, as for your legendary weapon application, send me an email in the future, and I'll help you get the formalities done. ”

"Well, leave the demon invasion to me. As long as it's not the peak of the legend or the demon with higher strength, I'll help you get rid of it, but it's best to send some powerful assistants over, if I get a new injury recently, the old Zhu Tou will definitely go crazy. After thinking about it for a while, Zhu Peng helped Yang Cai'er take over the work of the demon invasion.

The complex relationship between the various schools in Wizard City is entwined with cause and effect, and if you don't know it very clearly, it is easy to mediate the problem, don't mediate the contradiction when the time comes, and then let the Chinese warriors offend the two schools at the same time and put the pit into it, since you are not good at it, it is better not to interfere.

In contrast, the task of Demon Invasion is much simpler, and it is great to kill all the living creatures in that area, as long as you make sure that you actually kill the demon that invaded Wizard City, it will be considered a complete task. Regarding Zhu Peng's choice, Yang Caier was not surprised.

"Okay, you go to the door now, and I'll send my most powerful assistant to assist you. ”

Shouldering the task, after a brief explanation, Yang Caier and Zhu Peng parted ways. After taking the rising elevator to watch the heroic and neat girl walk away, after rising to the top floor, Zhu Peng strode out, and at the door of the headquarters of the Chinese Warriors Association, he saw a hot ...... in a leather coat Handsome!?

"Subordinate Sword-Winged Eagle Liu Shengshuiyue, see the Commander of the Iron Winged Flying Tiger, under the order of Commander Yang, I will take you to the location of the demon invasion as soon as possible, and cooperate with your work throughout the process. "This Liu Sheng Shuiyue was just caught by Zhu Peng in the arena of the Phantom Forest and beaten violently, but she was wearing a martial arts suit at the time and was wrapped in the earthy fighting spirit around her body, so without taking a closer look, Zhu Peng thought that the opponent was him and not her.

Now Liu Sheng Shuiyue is dressed in a leather coat, untied her hair, revealing a young and beautiful figure and a pretty face, but there is a large circle of fist prints on the left eye of her small face, but she has just been hit in the face by Zhu Peng with a heavy punch in the Phantom Forest, with the double protection of helmet and fighting spirit, plus the exhaustion at that time, she was not directly shot in the head, but after all, it was broken, the right half of her face was pure and beautiful, and the left half of her face was blue and black and swollen, which made Zhu Peng feel embarrassed.

"Uh, I'm sorry. I didn't know you were a girl at the time, but if I did......"

"You're not going to fight?"

"I'll just fight in another place. ”

"Ha, you really didn't use all your strength when you were in the Phantom Forest, I checked your information, it is clearly marked that 'Pure Yang Yuan Ji' is a horizontal practice of qigong, strong in actual combat, and is the best at life and death fighting to exchange injuries for life, there is no reason to suddenly change the style of warfare now, it turns out that it is our miscellaneous fish who did not let you feel the pressure at all. Shouldering the task, although Liu Sheng Shuiyue talked and laughed, her movements were not slow, she rode a black heavy modified locomotive, and at the same time patted the back seat with her little hand, and motioned for Zhu Peng to sit on.

"I signed an earthly ape as a magic pet, although its strength is not strong, it can assist me in cultivating fighting qi, and at the same time, it can make the locomotive run to a certain extent, so I am the strongest one among the thirteen eagles in emergency support. As Zhu Peng sat down and the heavy motorcycle rumbled, Yanagi Shuiyue stepped on the electric door and rushed out of the headquarters of the Chinese Warriors Association with Zhu Peng.

"Is this a Magic Crystal or a modified car?"

"Of course it's a modified car, how can I afford a magic crystal car. ”

"Didn't the Wizard City Council explicitly prohibit this type of model?"

"The Wizard City Council also explicitly prohibits firearms and weapons, but in fact, who doesn't? Even if they are caught, as long as they don't get killed on the spot, no one will really ......pursue them if they flee back."

The one-eyed blue sister Yanagi Shuiyue seems to have a lot of drag racing on weekdays, the locomotive drives as fast as the wind, not to mention, she is almost familiar with all the remote and rugged shortcuts in the wizard city, it was at least half an hour's drive, in the roaring engine of the heavy-duty modified locomotive, Zhu Peng and Yanagi Shuiyue, who took the shortcut to the limit, arrived at their destination in more than ten minutes. The wind was speeding along the way, and Zhu Peng's steps were a little fluttering when he landed.

"You're amazing, the first time you sat in my car, you didn't react. ”

β€œ...... You're going to roll over halfway, and you'll see my reaction, and I'm just ready to grab you and use it as a cushion. ”

"Haha, I believe this, you will do it. ”

The dilapidated and dirty building has been surrounded by a circle of people, it is not the nature of the Chinese people to love to see the excitement, but the common nature of human beings, the disciples of the Chinese Warrior Association maintain the peripheral order, under the introduction of Liu Sheng Shuiyue, Zhu Peng quickly entered the building.

Because a large number of poor people are crowded in this building, the corridors and aisles of the public space have become extremely narrow, and until this moment, there are still many people of different colors in the building, that is to say, the disciples of the Chinese Warrior Association only maintained the basic order on the periphery, and did not forcibly evacuate the original inhabitants in the building, which seems to show that the demon possessing the human body is not very strong, and the situation has been basically controlled just by relying on the stationed personnel. At this time, it was a figure similar to the building chief in the building who guided Zhu Peng and Liu Sheng Shuiyue to go inside, he made a gesture of please, and guided the two to go upstairs, Zhu Peng randomly pulled out a thin booklet from the pile of debris next to him, and the cover of the book was drawn with a twisted demon, it was a book, the title of the book was: "Witchcraft and Demon Worship".

"There are books like this everywhere here, if you want to have less evil invasions in the future, it's best to collect these books and burn them all in one fire, although many of the rituals on them are nonsense, but as long as the darkness in the human heart is enough, even if there are no rituals, the rich darkness and strong obsession will attract the demons. And this book will become a medium to guide obsessions and strengthen them. Flipping through it roughly, Zhu Peng shook his head slightly. After dusting the booklet in his hand, he suggested to the building chief who was leading the way.

However, the attitude of the building chief was indifferent beyond Zhu Peng's expectations, the gray-haired old man just glanced back at the booklet in Zhu Peng's hand, and then he smiled and turned around, and said as he walked up: "It can't be burned, it's useless to collect it and burn it, I don't know how many people have memorized the content of this booklet, everyone in this building, including me, who hasn't prayed for the devil to come when the most bitter and difficult time?" Demons are undoubtedly closer to us poor people than the gods or wizards, and at least they are willing to pay a certain amount of money while coveting our souls and lives...... But Jade's child is an exception, she is protected like a treasure by her parents, and those who want to summon demons are ignored, and those who don't want to summon demons are possessed, which is really amazing. ”

With the words of the old building chief, he came to his destination.

The mother and her family were sitting outside the door and weeping, all of them suffering some scratches that didn't look like the work of a thirteen-year-old girl and more like the claws of a beast.

As soon as he saw Liu Sheng Shuiyue, who was wearing a leather suit and holding a samurai sword, the emaciated woman cried and pounced, Zhu Peng had always thought that kowtowing to the ground was the only ability of China's vulnerable groups, but the blonde woman in front of her fell to the ground and kowtowed vigorously to Liu Sheng Shuiyue while crying, her mouth was full of words of pleading and sparing, her chaotic mind could not organize any logical sentences at this time, only the forehead that was gradually bleeding showed her earnest intentions.

Leaving the scene in front of him to Yanagi Suigetsu to deal with, it is obvious that the Thirteen Eagles, who are in charge of regional defense, are more authoritative than themselves, who don't come forward to do things, especially among civilians.

Zhu Peng crossed the woman who kept kowtowing and pushed open the door, and saw that there were seven or eight sturdy men in the room holding down the waist, legs and limbs of a blonde girl with an anti-riot steel fork.

"Roaring ......"

The girl with blond hair and black eyes and black muscles on her face saw Zhu Peng push the door and walk in, baring her teeth at him and roaring like a beast. Because of the characteristics of condensation and convergence, Danshi usually behaves with a gentle temperament, so in the eyes of the possessed demon, what walked in was just an ordinary human being, without the vigorous qi and blood of a powerful warrior, nor the spiritual oppression that spread out from the powerful spellcaster, and even in its eyes, Zhu Peng was probably not more threatening than the few strong guys who controlled it in the house.

"Commander, in this case, we usually just kill the demon's followers, so that the matter is over for the time being, which is why the woman was so excited when she saw me just now, she thought I had come to kill her daughter...... Although, this is indeed one of the options. Liu Sheng Shuiyue leaned over to Zhu Peng's side and whispered.

"My hands hurt and my hands hurt, and my feet hurt and I chop my feet, so what if I have a headache?"

Looking around the surrounding environment, if it was a few months ago, Zhu Peng would probably have been able to forcibly deal with it like Liu Sheng Shuiyue, directly killing the demon dependents, and letting the matter come to an end temporarily, but now Zhu Peng is stronger than two months ago, not because of the rapid improvement in combat strength, but in terms of experience and knowledge reserves, which gives him more choices when he encounters thorny problems.

Standing in the middle of the room, Zhu Peng closed his eyes, and the world around him gradually faded away, becoming only himself. With his feet on the ground, Zhu Peng opened his eyes and appeared inside a gorgeous building, he glanced around, and then trotted down the spiral staircase to the basement of a large library, with thick books on top of rows of shelves.

After choosing a category, Zhu Peng walked over to look for them one by one, there were too many books, some books were full of words, some books were only half written, and some thick big books even had only one title.

But Zhu Peng didn't seem to be in a hurry, he rummaged through the books one after another, until he suddenly saw a thin old man, this guy who was originally hiding in the corner and quietly flipping through the books and reading, seemed to think that he was too annoying, and suddenly stood up to Zhu Peng's side, the old man pulled out a book from a hidden corner of the bookshelf, and then waved his hand and smashed it on Zhu Peng's chest.

"Books, after reading, you should classify them in your mind, and you can take them out quickly when you use them, don't put them in the corner and slowly cover them with dust, the book will cry. The old wizard taught Zhu Peng a lesson, and then turned to leave, while the young man looked down at the book smashed into his arms: Demon Studies, Evil Spirits, and the moment he opened the book, the contents of the book instantly appeared in Zhu Peng's mind.

In the real world, Zhu Peng closed his eyes, he stood by the bookshelf in a library and pulled out a book, turning his hands page by page. After about half a minute, I opened my eyes, and there was already clarity in my eyes.
