Chapter Seventy-Four: Shi Gengguo

Shi Gengguo, one of the only three remaining countries on the left continent, it borders the Jinshi country in the north and the Stern country on the right, which is a country where the whole country practices vajra and does not break martial arts, and madly advocates muscles and fitness.

As an existence that takes martial arts as a national study, but can be allowed to build a country by the state of Sturt, all the mysteries are in the martial arts of King Kong.

This is a rather unique external skill, known as the world's first-class defense martial arts, its cultivation not only needs to temper the body, run the true qi, in addition, it also needs to absorb a large number of ore resources.

Only in this way can that kind of indestructible metallization be formed.

The true qi cultivated by this exercise has a unique extraction effect on substances such as metals and minerals.

After extraction, they can greatly improve the quality of the mineral material, and apply the extracted mineral essence to the outer layer of the skin.

In the end, through the method of frantically tempering the body, the essence of these mineral materials can be slowly integrated into the surface of the skin membrane, the inside of the true qi, so as to achieve the metallization of the epidermis when the body is fully exercised.

King Kong is not bad, and it is known as the world's No. 1 extreme defense, which is accumulated through this bit by drop extraction.

He Dachun's ability to shatter and slash at his golden body so easily was not only due to its incredible hardness, but also because of the extraction and destruction of metal substances by his True Qi.

At first glance, this technique is very similar to Xu Yue's 'Chewing Steel' talent, but its inner essence is very different, whether it is the absorption efficiency of the metal or the degree of strengthening, the 'Chewing Steel' is far more than this martial art, not to mention the incidental ability of Cooking Fire.

But in any case, there are indeed many similarities between the two, both of which are to devour metal to achieve metallization, which is why Iwayama is so excited after learning about Xu Yue's ability.

If he can really dissect Xu Yue, it is very likely that the martial arts of King Kong is not bad will be completely evolved.

Thousands of years ago, as the source of King Kong's incorruptible martial arts, his ability may have been a weakened version of the 'Chewing Steel' ability, which was all in the same vein devouring metal ore.

It is precisely because there is a great demand for metal minerals to practice this martial art, so thousands of years ago, the ancestors of Shi Gengguo would travel thousands of miles to break away from the right continent, which is the birthplace of martial arts, and come to this small left continent to settle.

After that, there was the rise of science and technology in the country of Sturt, becoming the overlord of the continent on the left, and the country of Sturt based on science and technology, their demand for material resources far exceeded that of the Xuanwu country next door, and even reached a pathological level for a time.

Unlike martial arts, which can continue to grow stronger by concentrating on cultivation, every time the level of science and technology is improved, the support of a large number of material resources is required.

Without enough material resources, no matter how powerful the technology is, it is only an idea in the mind, and the formula lines on the drawings cannot be converted into real objects at all, and become a force that overrides everything.

This is also one of the disadvantages of the scientific and technological civilization compared to the martial arts civilization, they are extremely dependent on foreign objects, and they need sufficient resources as a foundation to transform into their own strength.

For this reason, the first thing the Sturt Kingdom did after becoming the overlord on the left side was to destroy other countries on the continent one after another, and launched the most bloody and cruel resource plunder.

Therefore, despite the fact that the land area of the country seems to be very small, it enjoys the supply of resources from an entire continent.

This is also the reason why, from the world map, there are more than ten countries on the right continent where the Xuanwu Kingdom is located, while there are only three countries and a large area of no man's land on the left continent where the Stern Kingdom is located.

This is not due to the geographical environment and population scarcity, but the kingdom of Ste has long since cleansed all the kingdoms on this continent and will waste his precious resources.

Among them, the existence of the Golden Stone Country is because the Stern Country needs them to provide a large number of gold and stone mineral resources, which is the best mineral supplier.

And the main reason for the existence of Shi Gengguo is that King Kong is not bad, and this martial art has the ability to extract and improve metal minerals.

This has made the whole country of Shi Gengguo a large-scale raw material processing factory, and they will further process the raw ore from Jinshi country to obtain higher quality metals, and then continuously transport them to the country of Stu.

Therefore, Shi Gengguo will form this strange atmosphere that all the people practice King Kong is not bad and crazy to advocate fitness, on the one hand, it is to enhance the country's strength, so as to maintain its own weak autonomy, so as not to completely become a processing slave of the Stern country.

On the other hand, it is probably from the secret guidance of the Stern Country, after all, every strong man who is not bad in King Kong is a master of metal material processing and the best senior worker in the Stern Country.

"This country is so ruthless."

"Abandon all meaningless emotions and only pursue efficient and cold mechanical thinking, no wonder you can become a hegemon country side by side with the Xuanwu Kingdom."

In the captain's room, Xu Yue sat in front of the bookcase, looking at the world map on the bookcase, while recalling the hidden information of Shi Gengguo from Qingfeng before leaving Xiaoji Island.

Looking at the small country of Ste on the map, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and he also had a deeper understanding of the cruelty of this world.

The Xuanwu State is the law of the jungle, and the Assassin Organization is unabashed, and there is no awareness of the law and human rights there.

The country is extremely cold, overriding everything, wantonly plundering all the resources and population that need it, and there is absolutely no soil for morality and emotion to take root.

It is no wonder that Chick Island, a remote island far from the mainland, attracts so many strong people to live here and are willing to use their lives to protect the existence of this island.

Compared to the continent, which is ruled by the wild martial arts civilization and the cold mechanical civilization, Chicken Island has a different kind of thing - human touch.

"In short, this is a deformed world born because of the unbridled growth of a developed transcendent system, which cannot be contained by powerful individual forces."

"However, it has nothing to do with me, I'm just a passerby."

After the bookcase, combined with a series of experiences after entering the world, Xu Yue gradually saw some of the essence of this assassin Wu Liuqi world.

After a few words of emotion, he took in the divergent thoughts everywhere and focused his gaze on the stone swerves shown on the map.

It was already the afternoon of the second day after killing Chiya, and after settling the matter of Little Chicken Island and discussing the future plan with Qingfeng, Xu Yue rushed to Shi Gengguo without stopping.

When he got some bits and pieces of information about Shi Gengguo through Iwayama before, he still had some thoughts about the martial art that King Kong is not bad, but after learning the details of King Kong not being bad from Qingfeng a few hours ago, he was no longer interested in this weakened version of 'chewing steel'.

He is now coming to Shi Gengguo for only one thing, and that is to solve the violators shown in the tarot divination.

"The destination is the edge of the country."

Just as he was thinking about where this violator would hide, a crisp mechanical female voice suddenly sounded in Xu Yue's ears, and when he turned his head to look, he saw a virtual projection of a continent floating on the metal instrument in the corner of the captain's room.

This is a small artificial intelligence equipped inside the radar system, although the intelligence is not high, but it is not a problem to meet the daily tasks of positioning, projection, and automatic driving.

Retracting the map on the bookcase, Xu Yue got up and walked to the deck, and when he went to Shi Gengguo, he couldn't drive the Day-by-Day, the Day-by-Day target was too big.

Previously, it was because there was no technology in the Earth Dragon Kingdom that he was able to fly a flying ship directly over the capital, but it was only covered by high-altitude clouds.

But for the neighboring Sturt country, and even the stone change country that is faintly subordinate to the Sturt country, such a method cannot be adopted.

Xu Yue dared to guarantee that as long as his flying ship dared to enter the airspace of the mainland on the left, it would be immediately discovered by the defense system of the Stern State, and it was estimated that in a few seconds, a bunch of aircraft or anti-aircraft missiles would also arrive.

So he had to drive to the edge of the continent first and then go alone.
