252. Life is like a play
Thanks to the selfless dedication of several 'friendly' elemental gods, Ji Ruo already knew a lot of information before entering the secret realm.
Of course, this has little to do with Ji Ruo's previous tailgating of the man who looked like an ordinary and simple man named 'Henry'.
The reason why Ji Ruo did that was purely because he was a newcomer, he was unfamiliar with the place, and he didn't know where to go all of a sudden, so he planned to follow Henry to see what these guys were usually doing.
I didn't expect to look at this, and I immediately found that this man is ordinary, but he is not simple at all.
'There is going to be a celebration recently', it's all a lie.
Play until 8 o'clock to go home, can that be called a celebration?
Thinking of this, Ji Ruo secretly rejoiced.
Fortunately, I found it early and remedied it in time, otherwise I would have been really trapped.
These people in the secret realm are so scheming!
"It's almost there, or we ...... it anyway," Henry hesitated again.
It's the mansion of a noble lord!
If they, the untouchables, come near without permission, what will happen to them......
Just thinking about it, Henry couldn't help but tremble a little, like the other person in the same company, the previous pride and ambition had long since dissipated.
Ji Ruo looked at the two of them and said sincerely: "Henry, who else is that." What do you think we're doing now? Do you think we're just plotting to kill that stranger? ”
Their eyes widened.
Even if that's the case, you don't have to be so straightforward!
Ji Ruo didn't wait for the two to answer, shook his head slightly, and continued: "You are wrong, what we are doing now is not just for the present, not just for this year's sacrifice.
The great Kerrys doesn't care what we think, He is God, God doesn't care. ”
"Huh? But you said ...... before."
Ji Ruo directly raised his hand to interrupt Henry's speech, and said, "What we are doing now is for our future!" For our children and grandchildren!
Are you willing to be a lowly person for the rest of your life? Do you want your children to live at the bottom of the world for generations, and get through their voices in a state of confusion?
Do you want to live in a clean and spacious house, and do you want your children and grandchildren to live in a clean and spacious house?
If you want to eat meat, you can eat meat, and if you want to drink, you can drink wine, ask yourself, do you yearn for that kind of life? ”
The two of them looked at Ji Ruo in a daze, the face that was slightly dusty and couldn't see clearly, but it was inexplicably pleasing to the eye, and the blonde hair that reflected a faint light in the sun...... (The light emitted by the sun's rays of the protective body of the Vajra Divine Skill)
Ji Ruo's words were like a heavy hammer, smashing the chests of the two, and even smashing the two of them into coughing-
"Ahem!"
Henry and the man who pushed away Ji Ruo's hands that were covering their mouths, and also pushed away Ji Ruo's hands that were beating their chests, and said with some anger: "Just talk, what are you beating us for!" ”
Ji Ruo retreated slightly, and the black shadow flashed away.
The two didn't realize how Ji Ruo had just two hands, and at the same time he was covering their mouths and beating them on the chest.
Ji Ruo imperceptibly waved his hand to Rosie who was squatting on the roof not far away, Rosie nodded hurriedly, and then, including Rosie, a total of three black shadows crossed across at a speed that was difficult to see the naked eye under the light and shadow of the roof or the house.
And Ji Ruo also said apologetically at the same time:
"I'm sorry, I just thought it would carry a little more weight."
Just now, Ji Ruo seems to be beating these two unreasonably, but in fact, Ji Ruo wants to test the strength of these two guys in this way, in order to roughly estimate the strength of the so-called 'noble lord', or the strength of the garrison of the 'noble mansion', and even guess the strength of 'Kairis'-
This seemingly unrelated information is actually connected by some kind of hidden connection.
As the so-called leopard in the tube, you can see the whole leopard at a glance.
It stands to reason that since the advent of the secret realm thousands of years ago, 'aura' is a universal objective thing, although at the beginning, 'aura' was harmful to the body of the Daxia people, but after a long period of research and adaptation, the Daxia people have gradually mastered the way to strengthen themselves with the help of the ubiquitous aura of heaven and earth.
That is, martial arts.
And even ordinary people who have never practiced martial arts, in their perennial lives, their physical bodies will be imperceptibly washed by the aura of heaven and earth, although the effect is not very obvious, but it is not completely ineffective.
Ordinary people are still like this, and the physical fitness of martial artists is naturally stronger.
This is the conventional theory.
The Earth Mother Continent is different, in this secret realm, because of its special belief in Shinto rules, the aura of heaven and earth is not a whole, but is differentiated into various elemental forces.
Josie, who was captured by Ji Ruo before, has the blessing of the god of theft, and he is also a senior thief, so his physical fitness has no reference value.
Whether the differentiated elemental power has a strengthening effect on the human body, it is not known, and those captured main gods have been high up and will not understand such a trivial matter.
They are the elemental force itself, and there is no need to strengthen the body with elemental power at all.
So just now, Ji Ruo was not just joking, but the main purpose was to conduct a simple exploration of the two people's bodies through his own strength.
The results were unsurprising.
The physical fitness of the two is a bit outrageous, and if they really fight, I'm afraid that even the seven or eight-year-old children in Daxia can cry to these two guys... If the strength is a little stronger, their ribs will be broken, or even die......
And this also shows from the side that the elemental power formed by the differentiation of heaven and earth aura does not seem to have the effect of strengthening the physical body of living beings, at least not the physical body of human beings.
Then there is the garrison of the 'noble mansion'.
If you call those guards knights, you can roughly estimate them.
Regard Henry and the others as the 'base', as 'inferior people', because of poverty, they may not be able to eat enough for a long time, and they will definitely not be able to keep up in terms of nutrition, so they are a little malnourished, just now, Ji Ruo's dark energy penetrated their bodies almost without hindrance - there is almost no fat buffer.
And then because of poverty, personal hygiene is certainly not well managed, that is, they may have all kinds of diseases, although these diseases will not be life-threatening for a short time, but they will make their bodies weaker.
In this way......
'Guards of noble mansions', that is, 'knights'.
Its own combat power starts from the 'base 1' represented by Henry and others-
Eat and drink well, have enough nutrition, and have +1 combat power
Serves the nobility, pays attention to hygiene, and has +1 combat power
Well-trained, +1 Combat Power
Well-equipped, +1 Combat Power ......
To sum up, a qualified knight has at least five times more combat power than an ordinary 'inferior person'!
That's it, it's still based on the fact that it doesn't count as a 'status bonus' and the other party doesn't have extraordinary abilities.
"Five times the combat power..."
It still seems to be very weak......
And then there's 'Kerrys', and I'll think about that later.
......
After being promoted to the Star Swirl Realm, Ji Ruo's quality in all aspects has been greatly improved, compared to Henry and the others, almost in an instant, Ji Ruo has already assisted his brain through specific actions and roughly estimated the combat effectiveness of the regular human knights in Rouen Town and even the entire Earth Mother Continent.
This is one of the characteristics of Star Swirl.
Fang Cai's long speech seemed lengthy, but in fact, after only a few seconds of thinking in Ji Ruo's mind, he had already come up with the answer, and then he only needed to verify the answer.
While thinking, Ji Ruo was not idle, his heart was divided into two uses, and he continued to persuade Henry and the others.
......
In reality.
Ji Ruo looked at the two of them with 'sincerity' in his eyes - although Ji Ruo had not yet mastered the common language of the Earth Mother Continent, he had a [lingua franca].
Eyes can also be used to communicate, and the contact lenses that Ji Ruo has been wearing happen to have special effects that can customize 'eye emotion'.
On weekdays, Ji Ruo often uses this special effect to customize the 'text eyes', but he simply thinks it's interesting.
But in fact, there is such a thing as 'eye emotion', which can be expressed abstractly and understood by others.
The eyes are the windows to the soul, so it makes sense to make eye contact and use the lingua franca to translate the meaning of your eyes to the other person.
Henry and the person who seemed to be moved by Ji Ruo's sincerity, or were really worried that Ji Ruo would 'impress' them, after keeping a certain distance from Ji Ruo, he gently rubbed his chest and looked at Ji Ruo with a look of resentment, without agreeing or refutating.
"Two, whether you believe it or not, what we are doing now, once successful, will bless our children and grandchildren, and all of this is obtained through our efforts, I want to say that even inferior people can work hard with their own hands to fight for everything they want."
Ji Ruo looked at the two seriously: "Although they are inferior people, people are people, and the noble lord is a person, and so are we."
Today, if we take this step, if we fail, we may be beaten to death for offending the majesty of the noble lord, or we will be broken limbs and thrown into the stinking ditch... But what if we succeed? ”
The two looked at Ji Ruo in shock.
"How can it be so serious! Obviously, you will only be beaten at most, how can you either die or have all your limbs broken in your mouth! ”
"Ahem..."Ji Ruo realized that he had just made up too much in his brain, and accidentally described the consequences as a little serious, so he quickly changed his words and said: "In short, if this thing is successful, it will bless the descendants, and if we fail, we will also be the pioneers of emancipating the minds of our 'inferior people', and we will become heroes no matter what... So both of you, you're already here, do you still want to back down? ”
The two hesitated.
Ji Ruo sighed: "I have already said everything that should be said, the choice is in your hands, and I will not force you... Henry, who else, thank you for walking with me here, and then, let me go alone, even if the end is death, at least I have tried...... I don't want to be a person for the rest of my life, and I want to be respected.
That's all I have to say, I'm going to find the noble lord! ”
After speaking, Ji Ruo turned around resolutely and walked towards the 'noble mansion' without looking back.
Rosie, who was not far away, waved her paw and motioned for the other two black shadows to follow, and the three black shadows, including Rosie, crossed over, just to find an angle that made Ji Ruo's back look 'tragic'.
Henry and the others stood in place, greatly touched by Ji Ruo's words, they looked at Ji Ruo's departing back, and felt an inexplicable shock and confusion in their hearts.
"What... How did things get to this point......" Henry asked with a blank look on his face.
The one who passed with him was also confused: "You ask me, I ask who to go... I just found out that we are doing such great things...... Obviously, this kind of thing happens every year, isn't it just to report the content of the celebration to the nobles......"
"yes, I suddenly feel that we can't die today, what's going on......"
The two were at a loss for a long time, and Ji Ruo had already gone away.
Suddenly, Henry seemed to have finally made up his mind, gritted his teeth, and turned his head to look at the person who was walking with him.
His gaze was resolute, as if he had made up his mind.
The one who looked surprised: "Let's ......"
Henry pulled the man who turned around and ran, and whispered: "Let's go back and tell everyone that that person is a little abnormal!" Damn, Lao Tzu was almost encircled by him! ”
Who's that: "??? ”
He was a little embarrassed to say that he actually believed......
......
"Meow~ (Master, they didn't follow.) )”
"Didn't you? Tut. Ji Ruo pursed his lips and said, "Sure enough, unscripted performances are prone to accidents... Forget it, have you done what I just asked you to do? ”
Rosie suddenly patted her chest confidently and said, "Meow~ (It's definitely done!) )”
Ji Ruo smiled and rubbed Rosie's head: "That's good, Rosie is really amazing." ”
Rosie suddenly meowed and giggled.
"Meow~ (Master, do you want to shoot next?) )”
Ji Ruo wanted to say no, but after thinking about it, he still said, "Let's shoot, but you can rest for a while." ”
"Meow~ (Okay!) )”
Ji Ruo hugged Rosie and walked up the stairs.
The town of Rouen is built on the hill, and the place where the noble lord lived is a small manor, located on the highest altitude in the whole town of Rouen, with the best lighting conditions and the most open view.
There is no shortage of patrolling knights on the road, some who seem to be smart, and some who are quietly lazy.
Ji Ruo silently lowered the previous assessment of the combat power of these noble knights, and walked towards the gate of the manor by himself.
With the blessing of Rosie's 'illusion' talent, coupled with [disguise] and [sense of substitution], it is almost integrated with the surrounding environment, regardless of each other, no one can find Ji Ruo at all.
What follows is much simpler.
Ji Ruo easily blended into the manor, and successfully found the so-called noble lord by throwing shoes and asking for directions.
Ji Ruo, as a local, reiterated the argument that 'the great Keris may be pleased with the improvement of the food, and may bestow the blessing of the noble lord and your gods'.
With the blessing of the theory of the supremacy of the gods and the title of "Diplomatic Spokesman" on this continent, he successfully obtained the temporary right to live in the manor for his status as a 'foreigner'......
The aristocratic lord was in a good mood, and by the way, he also agreed to allocate funds for the revised celebration project......
Although it is said to be a temporary residence, it is actually 'house arrest for foreigners to prevent them from discovering and escaping'.
But none of this matters to Ji Ruo, in short, he can be regarded as the first step to come to this secret world... Half a step......
Subsequently, Ji Ruo left the manor as a 'local', walked around casually, and pretended not to know, and pedaled back to the manor as a 'foreigner'.
If the time is pinched very accurately, it will be a meal when I come back.
The aristocratic lord naturally 'hospitalized' the unsuspecting 'foreigner Ji Ruo'.
And the 'Stranger Ji Ruo' also showed a look of gratitude.
Even, in order to 'thank' the nobleman's 'hospitality', Ji Ruo, a foreigner, was moved to sell the treasure he had obtained over the years - the 'bicycle' to the nobleman's 'low price'.
In the evening, Ji Ruo lied that he was too drunk to carry Rosie back to the guest room.
Now I have a place to live, although the conditions are a little simpler, but it is suitable for 'office'.
"Rosie, show me what you guys took today."

Title: "This NPC is Too Strong"
Synopsis: When Li Yu wakes up, he finds himself in the game world of "Avenue Eternal".
At this time, there is still half a year before the arrival of the player.
The Demon Tribulation has not yet begun, and the Rotten Swamp, the Golden Desert, the Yinshan Ghost Country, and the Infinite Demon Sea are still silent. The entire dry world was calm.
Li Yu took advantage of his foresight and took the opportunity to develop obscenely.
After the game is launched, on the banks of the Qingshui River, players will often see a high-level NPC with a bling ID fishing.
Whenever a player excitedly comes forward to talk to see if they can apprentice or trigger a task-
"What? Do you want to worship me as a teacher? ”
Li Yu shook his head: "With all due respect, your qualifications are too poor." However, Poor Dao once lost a piece of the dragon jade pendant in the zombie cave, if you find this thing, I can pass on a spell to you. ”
"You want to learn alchemy?" Li Yu smiled slightly: "There is a group of evil cultivators in the Five Ghost Caves of Qilao Mountain, as long as you can eliminate harm for the people and take their magic weapon Xinjin Copper Bottle and hand it to me, how about the poor Dao pass on your alchemy?" ”
……
Li Yu used his identity as an NPC to issue various tasks to players (workers) (tools) (people) to grab his own cultivation resources.
And water and fertilize the players, and use the thunder as cannon fodder.
It wasn't until hundreds of years later that many of the top bigwigs in the Dry Realm fell, disappeared and disappeared, and the players changed one after another, but Li Yu was still active in the Dry Realm, and was even about to ascend.
Many players have to sigh: this NPC...... It's too strong!
