Chapter 42: News (1)

Time is like water, fleeting, and in the blink of an eye, a month has passed.

During this time, Sutum spent most of his time digging into his abilities and comparing them with the information about angels, demons, and prophets in his head to form a precise system of power judgments.

Whether it is Huron Ding or Flo's information, the system of rank and ability is too rough, and once a battle occurs, the reference for the opponent's strength is extremely limited. Sutum tried to reformulate a standard based on his own strength, as well as the information in it, so that it would be easier to distinguish between the various levels of power.

In addition to this work, Sutum is also trying to build a system of mortal enhancements to increase the power around him.

Talos was a successful attempt for him.

Talos's physical strength and strength had already reached his limit, that is, the peak of heroes, but because he didn't have the Prophet bloodline and couldn't awaken his abilities, it was almost impossible to cross this threshold. And as Sutum imprinted him with the water pattern, he began to be able to sense and manipulate the energy of water.

During this time, he trained almost every moment and used various methods to strengthen his mental will, which seemed to Sutum to be a bit cruel.

After all, the hard training paid off, and he was now able to manipulate the water vapor in a radius of 100 meters, turning into various shapes at will, matching his attacks or defenses. Combined with his original strength, Talos is roughly equivalent to the realm of a newly becoming a prophet.

Talos, like Thea, is also burdened with a deep hatred, and if he doesn't say it, Sutum won't ask. When the time comes, we will know.

In addition to Talos, Sutum also selected several loyal mortal warriors to transform.

Although these warriors have obtained the power of wind, ice, and water respectively through transformation, they either have limited physical strength, or their mental will is not tough enough, or the adaptability of the potion is not enough, in short, the power they get is also limited, and they still stay at the level of heroes, far from being comparable to Talos.

Sutum was helpless about this result. The body and will can be exercised, but the medicine is not so well arranged.

In the city of Sisos, the blood of alien beasts is rare, and its main source is the exchange with the hunters of the wasteland, which is basically a valuable commodity.

As a result, there are very few Sutums that can be used to configure modification potions, and there is no guarantee that the requirements will be met perfectly every time. Therefore, it is not realistic to use this method to strengthen subordinates in large quantities at present.

In addition to pattern transformation, Sutum is also building a system of spiritual strengthening.

In his previous life, he also found out from his memory various methods of meditation, meditation, and mental training, and conducted various experiments and optimizations. However, perhaps the world is different, and some of these methods work, while others do not.

Whether it is screening or witnessing the effect, it is an extremely long process, and Sutum can only patiently deduce and wait.

From his various experiences in this world, from Xia's description of the Apostle of Destiny and the Priest of Destiny, Sutum can feel a great threat, not to mention, he also has his own goals and desires to achieve. All of this has turned into an incomparable power, prompting him to constantly transform and become powerful.

Xilin District, Flying Feather Tavern.

It's more lively than ever.

As Sutum extracted the relevant information about wine and food from his memories and transformed them into some crafts suitable for this era, the tavern's business became even more popular.

With the high quality of the wine and food, this pub is full almost all the time.

Outsiders, wasteland hunters, and even the children of small and prominent families in the Inner Ring City can be seen everywhere here, and there are more and more of them.

With the increase in the flow of people, Zoro also asked the tavern to be re-expanded, the area was increased several times, the decoration was more gorgeous, and there were also some private rooms for those strong people and children of the family.

Sutum and Eloth were in a private room in the tavern.

In this day and age, taverns have always been the place to get the most information and the fastest. The greater the flow of people, the more so.

That's why, although Nick is specifically responsible for gathering the information he needs for Sutum, he still habitually comes here to listen to some news for himself.

Sutum's private room is located on the second floor of the tavern, and through the transparent glass windows, you can see most of the tavern.

The glass windows are now standard in some of the city's newer, high-end buildings, after all, these sleek and transparent things look really pleasing to the eye.

With the existence of extraordinary power, the technology of making glass has developed very rapidly, both in terms of quality and quantity, the glass made by Sutum's forces has long met the needs of this city. Nowadays, many buildings in the city of Sisos, both in the outer and inner rings, have been replaced with glass windows, and they look more beautiful and elegant than before.

In any glass environment, Sutum is like a fish in water, just like this tavern, he doesn't need to use any power, everything that happens here is clear in his eyes.

"How do you feel, is the environment here suitable for your cultivation?"

Sutum asked Eloth beside him.

Stimulated by Talos's training, everyone around Sutum began to think of strengthening, even the seemingly incapable Eloth was no exception.

Eloth's prophetic bloodline is [Mind Control], and before he fully awakens, he can only achieve [Mind Perception], perceiving the thoughts and intentions of a certain range of beings around him. As for how this bloodline was fully awakened and how to improve its ability, Sutum was not clear. But it's certainly right to use more and practice more.

Aloth appeared here to use the large number of people in the tavern to practice his psychic power.

"No problem, there is a lot of traffic here, the mind is complicated, many people are very careful about their minds, there is no more suitable place than here. ”

Aloth said, closing her eyes and feeling her surroundings.

"That's okay, I'll accompany you every day from now on. ”

Sutum smiled.

Eloth gave him a deep look, a flash of joy on her face, and nodded softly.

Suddenly, a blush appeared on Eloth's face, and her expression was a little shy.

"What's wrong?"

Sutum asked curiously, but Eloth didn't answer.

Sutum followed her line of sight and sensed carefully, it turned out that in the corner of the tavern hall, some hot singers were performing all kinds of exciting programs, and many rough men around were whistling and making various teasing sounds from time to time.

You don't have to think about it, you know what is going on in the minds of these people.

Sutum smiled slightly, and did not continue to ask.

Seeing that Eloth closed his eyes and slowly immersed himself in his cultivation, Sutum was not idle, he let go of his abilities, and almost all the pictures and words in the tavern appeared in his mind.

Having been to the tavern a few times, he already knew which people's information was more accurate and valuable.

His eyes are also mainly on these people.

......

"Lord Buddy, is what you just said true? The hunters of the wasteland have formed an organization of mercenary groups, and are now recruiting a large number of warriors, and moreover, they are also teaching mortals how to gain supernatural powers for free?"

In one corner of the tavern, a bald man with a full beard widened his eyes and whispered in a voice that did not match his stature at all.

Next to him were two men who were also in good shape, and they were also listening.

Their eyes were eagerly looking at Buddy, a "giant" with a patterned face and a body twice as muscular as them.

Buddy took a sip of spirits, ate a roast leg of lamb, and praised, "The food here is getting tastier." ”

After burping and enjoying the eager gazes of the three of them, Buddy said, "When did Lord Buddy lie to you? My teacher is a wasteland hunter, can my news be fake?"

"In addition to the 'mercenary group', the hunters have formed two other organizations that are also said to provide a way for mortals to harness the power of nature. But I don't know what it is. ”

The eyes of the three men looking at him suddenly became even hotter.

"Ahem, don't look at Lord Buddy like that, otherwise, I won't be able to control and beat you flat. ”

Buddy was taken aback by this gaze and snorted, "Lord Buddy likes delicate women, but he is not interested in rough men. ”
