Yamafu Military Affairs

Chapter 185 Tianrui
"Master Walker, you are about to start the Yamabu incident!"

"You have an extra token of Yama."

"You can choose to use it to replace this Yamabu incident."

"If you don't want to replace it, you can also choose to sacrifice it, which will elevate your status in this Yanfu incident."

"After your status is upgraded, you will get more help."

"Sacrifice."

"You have sacrificed [Zhongli Huang], and you will gain a higher status in this Yanfu incident."

The darkness that surged like a wave swept across my eyes, and a little white light gradually expanded.

The world is spinning.

Qin Huai suddenly opened his eyes!
"boom!"

The hot bullets hit my eyes, shining into my pupils with the unique reflective light of brass, and there was an indescribable sense of amazement.

Qin Huai's head tilted, and the shrapnel passed through his thick hair, leaving a faint red mark.

Looking up, I saw a tragic scene in front of me.

The setting sun melts gold, and the cold, hard gray frost stretches as far as the eye can see.

There were horse carcasses chopped into pieces, spare parts scattered everywhere, a steel wheel half-fallen into a gun pit, and the horrifying bodies of soldiers with various causes of death.

Several steam giants with different paint jobs were fighting each other, and what was shot at him just now was just a stray bullet.

Qin Huai had a brass mask with exquisite patterns on his forehead and a huge and heavy metal armor on his body.

Although the armor was heavy, it did not give Qin Huai enough sense of security. The reason was that the armor was too damaged.

Not only were the bright armor on his chest and the round mirror protecting his heart full of cracks, but the fish-scale shoulder pads and the tiger-skin waist guard on his abdomen were also blown to pieces by gunfire and were on the verge of falling apart.

Qin Huai stepped forward, but the pressure he felt was not as great as he had imagined.

In the gaps where the armor parts were connected, bronze gears, mithril bearings and leather-sealed hoses were intertwined, with deep red crystals flowing through them, providing the steam giant with surging power like blood.

As Qin Huai stepped forward, the brass exhaust pipe embedded under his leg armor spewed out a large cloud of light red steam, just like the vortex behind a Raptor fighter jet, providing sufficient power for the man wearing the armor.

Qin Huai casually pulled out a one-eyed musket with a ramming horn from the belt around his waist and looked at it carefully. It seemed that it could be used for both shooting and armor-piercing blunt weapons.

【Can opener】

Quality: Excellent

A single-barreled musket of quite astonishing caliber, containing an armor-piercing conical bullet mixed with Tianrui.

Firing at mobile armor at close range can break through most alloy shells.

Note: One strike breaks the armor, there is absolutely no chance of a second strike.

In addition, there is a heavy hammer fire gun on the back and a long-handled Mo Dao on the ground.
War Machine.

Qin Huai looked into the distance, looking at the battle group of giant soldiers fighting in the distance, and felt an indescribable sense of absurdity in his heart.

The scarlet-painted steam giant soldier looked identical to the armor he was wearing, with a faint dark golden glow flowing on its surface. The sound of mechanical operation could be heard from within, and billowing steam gushed out of the gaps between its joints, demonstrating an indescribable domineering aura.

The platinum-painted Steam Giant Soldier was engraved with pure white wings, and light gold patterns wrapped around its body, as if it was always bathed in the holy light of heaven. In the billowing steam, it exuded an amazing beauty like a lost seraph.

The wind blew up balls of light red steam, which condensed into thin streams in front of the man.

The crystal liquid sparkling with brilliant colorful light twisted and changed, forming several lines of small characters.

Time: The ninth year of the Tianbao Period of the Tang Dynasty (751 AD)
Location: North of Tianshan Mountain, Daqingchi, 44 degrees north latitude, 77 degrees east longitude

Decades ago, after returning from the Ice Sea, the Western Church accumulated wealth and power with the help of a mysterious metal that came from nowhere, and eventually built a city called "Florence", which was known as the paradise on earth.

The revolutionary technology changed the fate of the entire world. With Florence as its capital, the Messianic Church established its own country.

"Red mercury", also known as "Tianrui", is a liquid that is as red as blood and as hot as magma. When ignited, it can produce astonishingly high heat and can also cause metals to degenerate and emit new magical properties.

"Shadow metal" is a general term for new metals that have unique properties after being influenced by red mercury technology.

People injected diluted red mercury into the steam engine, and the wave of the new era rolled in with the steam, carrying the entire world towards an unknown future.

The red steam crossed the Atlantic Ocean, bringing the Bible, disease and death to the barbaric natives of the New World; the fire guns and lead bullets dimmed the stars and moon of the black-clad Arabs, and there was no more danger on the silk and porcelain trade route between China and the West; the kings and dukes of the European countries knelt under the blazing fire of the angels on earth, handing the Messiah the pearl of power.
And in the far east, the Tang people used the powers of Buddhism, Taoism and witches to find Tianrui mineral deposits, to farm, to build and to conquer!

Over the past hundred years, the Tang Dynasty conquered Tuman in the south, Tubo in the west, Turks in the north, and Fusang in the east. But the ambitions of the Tang emperors were far more than that. They set their sights on the South Sea, the Western Regions, and the North Sea!
With the productivity brought by Tianrui, hundreds of thousands of ambitious Tang Dynasty soldiers who were skilled in archery and horse riding showed their sharpness like tigers out of the cage and demonstrated their unparalleled combat power.

The mighty Tang Dynasty remained undefeated for a thousand years. The Tang people's desire for land was deeply engraved in their blood. The endless expansion was sweeping across the world with the Divine Capital as the core!
In the seventh year of Tianbao in the Tang Dynasty (748 AD), secret envoys of the Messianic Holy Religion discovered a large amount of red mercury mines in Khwarezm. The terrifying reserves made the world crazy.

The Black Arabs, the Western countries, the Anxi Protectorate, all forces are deploying actions in full swing, intending to gain greater benefits and more faith.

Messiah, Elam, Zoroastrianism.
Countless beliefs are overthrown, countless beliefs are shattered, and countless beliefs are born!

The elite Tang Dynasty imperial guards, the Shenwu Tianqi, set foot on this intricate and treacherous land with a mysterious purpose. What they will face are the arid desert, the disappeared ancient country, and the fully armed and fearless Holy Crusaders.
The requirements of this Yanfu event are as follows:

1. Obtain the Yama token which also has the power of rat.

2. Destroy an organized group of mecha knights
3. Kill a general officer

4. Destroy any one of the Western countries
5. Eliminate the ice waves in the West and find the legendary Avalon
The Yamabu event will officially begin after completing any of the above requirements.

You obtain special expertise in this Yamabu event: Alchemy Expertise 50% (Special) (Rare), which will be forgotten after the event ends. You can also spend 5000 Yamabu points to obtain it permanently.

Your status in this Yamabu event has been elevated.

Your current identity is: Shenwu Tianqi·Yingyang Langjiang, Zhengyi Gaogong·Talisman Armor Master.

Qin Huai glanced at the Platinum Knight lying in front of him, his head blown into bloody mud, dead beyond death. While tearing off the tattered mobile armor without any instruction, he read the black and white memories that were playing in his mind due to his upgraded status.

After a while, Qin Huai sorted out the memories in his mind and some information obtained from the sacrifice of Zhongli Huang.

First of all, it is the 9th year of Tianbao in the 7th century AD. Gao Xianzhi has just escorted the captive King Jieshi back to Beijing, and the Tang Dynasty is at its peak in the Western Regions. Apart from the Messiah Holy Church, which made its fortune with mechanical technology, and the vast Black Caliphate, the Anxi Protectorate has no rivals in this land.

Qin Huai is now the leader of the elite inner guards of the emperor, the Shenwu Tianqi, and the deputy governor of Anxi Protectorate. Apart from Li Linfu, who is the remote governor of Anxi, in the Western Regions, his status is only lower than that of the ever-victorious general Gao Xianzhi, who is also the deputy governor of Anxi.

A good start. Qin Huai exhaled lightly, smelling the smell of gunpowder in the air, and with a hook of his toes, he grasped the heavy double-sided Mo Dao tightly.

【Stranger】

Category: Weapons

Quality: Rare!
Sharpness: 101
The thousand-forged steel knife mixed with mithril and refined gold is the standard equipment of the Shenwu Tianqi.

Features: Gold Crushing (excellent at destroying metal products)

Note: Under the Mo Dao, both men and horses were destroyed!
Qin Huai strode towards the giant steam soldiers fighting in a group, and the more than ten-foot-long Mo Dao in his hand was flowing with a dark silver cold light.

Black ripples surged in his eyes, and all secrets were revealed in a single glance.

[God's Wrath II (Dual Core)]

Category: Mobile Armor

Quality: Excellent

This is another innovative work by the genius Florentine designer Yumaz Glenn, known as the "Mithril Ghost". It is equipped with a dual power core that can slightly enhance the wearer's nerve reaction speed.

Beryllium bronze armor, mithril bearings, adamantium spine, red mercury steam power.
Although the materials used are expensive, it has become the first choice of armor for the Templar Knights due to its strong applicability and low energy consumption.

Note: This is a piece of mobile armor that can be called a work of art, and its value is worth more than a fortune!
[Flying Cavalry Guard (Single Core)]

Category: Mobile Armor

Quality: Excellent

This is the first batch of finished products that the Buddhist and Taoist wizards created after learning and exploring by dismantling the wreckage of Western mobile armor and experiencing countless failures. The output is quite rare.

It can only be worn by a brave and strong man, and can only be used by a dexterous person.

Because of the lack of many key technologies, the armor wearer has extremely high requirements. Among the sixteen guards of the Tang Dynasty, only the Northern Yamen Imperial Guards are equipped with it.

Talisman armor, thousand-forged gear, Buddha's protective spine, colored glaze eyepiece.
Note: Strictly speaking, this cannot be considered a steam weapon.

A ghostly black shadow quietly approached a platinum knight and stabbed him in the back with a can opener of exaggerated caliber.

boom!
Qin Huai pulled the trigger, a faint flame flashed and went out, the knight's body fell together with the heavy mobile armor, and red mercury vapor gushed out uncontrollably.

"careful!"

Before he finished speaking, a crimson figure rushed towards Qin Huai before the explosion and protected him tightly.

The flammable and explosive red steam engulfed the corpse with a huge hole in the heart and the surrounding steam giants. Qin Huai, who was knocked down by the Flying Cavalry Guards, was also severely impacted.

Before the two of them could get up, a black sword light like a streak of light chopped down on their heads, aiming directly at the waist and abdomen of the Flying Cavalry Guards!

A cold light flashed in Qin Huai's eyes, and the sapphire divine light crashed into the Lombard man's brown eyes, forcing him to stagnate.

The Mo Dao and the curved blade collided precisely. Qin Huai pressed and lifted his wrist, and the black sword light was swept away by the double-edged sword, and there was no threat anymore.

Just when Qin Huai wanted to get up and attack again, the Flying Cavalry Guard on his body suddenly supported the ground with his arms, and his upper body bounced up quickly. While the curved blade was being picked up by Qin Huai, he blocked the ferocious iron hand with his arm, pulled out a can opener with his right hand, and smashed it towards the neck of the Platinum Knight.

Before the red mercury vapor could burst out and explode again, a huge golden-red hand smashed the beryllium bronze armor and forced the two power cores of the Wrath II to shut down.

It’s Qinhuai.

Thinking about the Flying Cavalry Guard's smooth counterattack just now, Qin Huai didn't waste any words. While shaking his red and swollen right fist to relieve the pain, he rushed towards the only three remaining platinum giant soldiers with his Mo Dao in hand.

The Flying Cavalry Guards also cooperated tacitly, grabbed the large sword and followed Qin Huai.

"clang!"

Dazzling sparks suddenly rose up, Qin Huai narrowed his eyes slightly, and the alchemical mechanical knowledge blessed by Yanfu surged wildly in his mind.

The dual-power core mobile armor has a peak output of up to 2000 horsepower, which is a huge force that he is currently unable to contend with.

Therefore, you have to use a little effort to achieve a great result.

The blade moved left and right in the stormy waves like a lone boat, creating countless sparks. Qin Huai, dancing on the tip of the blade, took advantage of the protection of the Flying Cavalry Guards, passed under the platinum giant soldier, and kicked hard at the relatively weak armor of the shin with his heavy steel boots.

A huge revolver appeared in his hand, and the Luanyu bullets in the magazine glowed with a faint green light.

Bang bang bang bang!

Six armor-piercing shells flew through the air.

The moment the gunshots rang out, the three platinum giant soldiers simultaneously raised their heavy arm shields in their left hands to protect their heads and faces. The mithril shield mixed with refined gold blocked all of Qing Xiangkai's attacks, creating a large dent.

Debris was like rain, steam was like blood, dark silver light streaked across the mist of residual blood, and the Mo Dao cut through the alloy neck guard at an incredible angle, picking off the head of a platinum knight.

The ferocious and wolf-like Flying Cavalry Guards were not to be outdone. They wrapped him with iron chains and hit him with heavy hammers, obviously intending to capture him alive.

"Hallelujah!"

As strange words were uttered, the steam gushing out from the two Platinum Knights' bodies suddenly intensified, and the steam backpacks on their backs also began to collapse abnormally.

"Run!"

The Flying Cavalry Guards, who were always disciplined, didn't need Qin Huai's reminders at all. As soon as they saw the bright red ballast switch being popped out, they knew how to take emergency precautions.

Qin Huai was trapped under the arms of the Flying Cavalry Guards, and there were three huge crimson shadows surrounding him to protect him.

A violent roar was heard from behind, and the brilliant flames of the burning red mercury illuminated the wasteland of Daqingchi, burning all combustible materials within a radius of thirty meters.

Perhaps it was because there was not much red mercury left in the steam backpack, or perhaps it was because the fish scale talismans on the Flying Cavalry Guards were very effective, Qin Huai did not suffer any injuries except for large blisters.

Looking at the scattered parts and broken armor all over the ground, Qin Huai waved his hand, signaling the Flying Cavalry Guards not to bother with him.

"Clean up the battlefield and start the return journey in a quarter of an hour!"

Watching the Flying Cavalry Guards looting the spoils, Qin Huai also walked to the only well-preserved platinum knight and began to explore it carefully.
