Yamafu Military Affairs

Chapter 235 Baji
Zeng Tai was shrouded in a black robe, silently following the guard in front of him all the way north, paying no attention to the warning bells ringing in the night sky.

He spent a lot of money and Li Linfu's connections to escape from the prison of the Ministry of Justice. Although he was still a criminal, he had changed his identity. As long as he could be escorted out of Chang'an by the guards, there would be someone to die for him.

Although he didn't know what happened in Xuanyangfang, what did all this have to do with Zeng Jihai, a big businessman in Jiangnan Road?
He kept walking quickly when he heard a car horn. Two huge figures wrapped in black robes appeared from the end of the dark alley and blocked Zeng Tai's way.

not good!

The burly Shouzhuolang's eyes narrowed, and he stopped immediately, picking up Zeng Tai and trying to retreat.

"Put him down and you can go."

Xiao Gui came out from behind, carrying two heavy halberds. His towering body, like a mountain, filled the narrow alley.
"kill!"

Before he finished speaking, a man standing next to Zeng Tai raised his mountain-breaking crossbow and pulled the trigger. A rain of steel arrows instantly covered the black robe.

Ding Ding Ding ~
He swung his hand halberd and cut the rain of arrows into pieces. The three guards beside Zeng Tai took out bronze bars similar to syringes and stabbed them into their hearts without hesitation.

The rainbow-like liquid was pumped by the heart to every part of the body. Heavy, rough breathing sounded under the high wall. In just a few breaths, the guard in the alley had transformed into a terrifying appearance.

Dark golden scales covered from the neck to the cheeks. Giant claws that were extremely disproportionate to the body protruded from the arm armor and dragged on the ground. Snake-like blue veins were jumping on the scarred face, and fierce murderous intent was boiling in the red-gold pupils.

"A ferocious beast? Or a Tianrui Dian?"

Xiao Gui frowned, and his double halberds blasted towards the monster's giant claws with a loud explosion.

"die!"

Shouzhuolang's voice was thick and hoarse, totally unlike that of a human.

The claws and blades collided, and tiny fragments of parts crossed Shouzhuolang's stern and terrifying face, creating sparks.

He dodged the giant flesh and blood claw that followed closely behind him, and blue flames gushed out of the steam vent behind his waist. Xiao Gui jumped up without thinking, and his hand halberd danced in a circle!

When the Thousand Forged Precious Halberd mixed with refined gold pierced through the air, it was as if a thunderclap exploded out of nowhere, and the flowing light appeared scarlet blood red. It seemed that what was driven by the Seraph was not a short halberd, but a stream of blazing flames!

At the same time, it seemed as if a huge blue wave enveloped him. He stood in the huge wave like a mad dragon emerging from the earth, and the blade of his halberd was the crest of the huge wave!

A series of sparks flowed across the sharp claws, which were caused by the collision between Shouzhuolang's arm armor and the moon blade of the hand halberd.

The unparalleled force bent the deformed flesh claws, and the monster howled angrily, and pressed down with its two-meter-tall body. The battle-hardened Xiao Gui instantly understood Shouzhuolang's attack intention. It was obvious that it wanted to take advantage of the slow movement of Fu Jia and use its alienated limbs to lock itself up.

Another heavy hand halberd pierced the monster's heart, but Shouzhuolang used his only remaining scaly claw to grab the halberd's branch. He actually flipped in the air with the blade as a fulcrum and kicked Xiao Gui's temple with his leg armor that was spewing thick steam.

Large clouds of steam pushed open the black robe, revealing a completely different Black Dragon from the Flying Cavalry Guard. The incredible scarlet dragon shadow devoured the deformed body, and the tip of the halberd pierced Shouzhuolang's claws. Xiao Gui ducked and kicked, and his heavy alloy boots came first. The huge force penetrated his body and poured into the monster's lower abdomen, knocking him away. At the same time, he used Shouzhuolang's retreating force to pull out the double halberds.

Shouzhuolang crashed into the high wall and was buried by bricks and stones, but before Xiao Gui could catch up to finish him off, he jumped up again, and his sharp claws split the thick steam between the two of them and pierced Xiao Gui's heart.

Xiao Gui blocked with his two halberds crossed, and stepped forward, but Shou Zhuolang pierced and stabbed wildly, his claws firmly locked onto Xiao Gui. His deformed claws were sharp enough to cut metal, and had left shallow marks on the tough armor of the Seraph.

Facing the storm of countless claw attacks, Xiao Gui remained calm. After he had almost figured out the methods of the strange man in front of him, he took a deep breath and instantly disappeared into the dark and narrow alley.

All four power cores were overloaded, and two slender streams of blue flames danced up. When Xiao Gui appeared again, Shouzhuolang only felt a light in front of his eyes, like a sunrise.

In the deep darkness, Xiao Gui's body was emitting flickering firelight, which was scattered by the steam and mist, and shone on the mottled wall, like the blue sun rising above the vast waves.

Under the big sun, huge waves rise one after another; among the waves, a mad dragon is born.

The hand halberd smashed Shouzhuolang's hideous head like a rotten watermelon. Xiao Gui stepped over the gradually hypothermic corpse and walked to Zeng Tai, who was trembling with fear.

"Where did these things come from?"

Xiao Gui squatted down and pointed at the three monsters that were dealt with by Shenwu Tianqi, his tone cold and stern.

"No, I don't know. I just know that they were sent by the Fire Master to take me out of the city."

Xiao Gui stood up with his halberd in hand.

"Don't, don't kill me. I'm the Right Prime Minister's man. If you spare my life, I can give you a lot of money. The Right Prime Minister can also ensure that you will be promoted to a higher position. You will no longer be driven around by others and continue to be a bloodthirsty fighter!"

Thinking of his elderly parents and his two hungry children at home, Xiao Gui shook his head and kept striking the short spear in his hand.

"You are just a seventh-rank official, and you dare to make such a boast."

Blood splattered, Zeng Tai was killed, Xiao Gui nodded to the other two Shenwu Tianqi, each of them carried a corpse and walked out of the alley to face the Jinwu Guards who were summoned by the bell.

The same purge occurred everywhere in Chang'an City. Qin Huai listened to the melodious bell sounds. After sending Raphael back to the embassy residence specially arranged by the Honglu Temple, he took Rundstedt back to the Shenwu military camp in Beiya.

"Maojie, go to the bank and exchange this gold. I need it urgently."

"Here."

Qin Huai walked into the yamen, handed the three redemption tickets to Fu Mengmaojie who stayed behind, then turned to look at Xiao Gui who had hurried back.

"General, we were tracking the criminal's whereabouts tonight and encountered some strange things."

"what?"

Qin Huai was led forward by Xiao Gui, knowing that something must have happened tonight, otherwise Wu Hou in the Watchtower would not have issued a warning.

"A kind of alien that resembles a ferocious beast."

Xiao Gui looked a little solemn. He was from Weizhou and grew up in the countryside. When he was young, he had seen a ferocious beast eating a person. If Tianruisi hadn't heard the news and caught it in time, the ferocious beast would have caused trouble.

A ferocious beast is a wild beast with more Tianrui blood in its body than the safe range. It is unconscious, ferocious, and has only appetite and desire for destruction.

Most of the Tianrui beasts in the Tianruisi animal pen will undergo many experiments and become these strange and ferocious beasts, and then be quietly disposed of.

"Where did they come from?"

"From the current perspective, it should be someone guarding the pavilion."

"Fire Master? Li Linfu? Or An Lushan?"

Qin Huai squatted down and lifted the white cloth covering the deformed corpse. The black ripples overflowing from the outline formed several lines of small words.

[Half-Dead]: A mutant enhanced by Zoroastrian mysticism and steam machinery. He is as strong as a tiger, as swift as a monkey, and has a metal exoskeleton designed for combat. He is very difficult to deal with.

He was originally an ordinary person, but after being injected with [Angra's Blood], the concentration of Tianrui blood in his body was forcibly increased, turning him into a mindless walking corpse, bloodthirsty and murderous, with an extremely short lifespan.

Note: Temporary elite troops manufactured in batches can be used in combat areas such as harassment, sabotage, assassination, kidnapping, etc.

"Zoroastrianism? It's really that fat guy."

Qin Huai picked out the [Half-Dead] with the highest degree of alienation and distortion, and walked into the closed workshop with it.

"Xiao Gui, I want to study this thing, you go and have a rest." "Yes."

Xiao Gui responded but did not leave. Instead, as usual, he stood silently at the door of the workshop with his halberd in hand.

In the workshop, Qin Huai took out the saw, drill, pliers and chisel and began to perform a detailed dissection on the corpse, which had already shown many biological characteristics.

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Huai finally disassembled all the biological parts of the [Half-Dead] that were obviously different from those of ordinary humans.

Looking at the scales, claws and numerous tiny bones in front of him, Qin Huai touched his chin and recorded them one by one in a cowhide notebook.

"The hardness of the scales is similar to that of steel, but the toughness and strength are even higher, and they can completely withstand the brass bullets of small-caliber guns; the destructive power of the claws is similar to that of the Bai Ren Bing."

After integrating all the data, Qin Huai unconsciously compared the [Half-Decadent] with the types of troops he had seen before.

"It's medium in strength, but a little inhumane. It can probably handle mobile armor, but I'm afraid it won't cause much damage."

Qin Huai stepped out of the door and was a little surprised to see Xiao Gui waiting outside, but he didn't say much.

"Brother, all the gold has been retrieved."

In the courtyard, Fu Mengmaojie was standing next to several iron boxes and greeted Qin Huai who had just come out.

"These will be divided among the brothers of the Shenwu Army when they come back, and the rest will be moved to the workshop for me."

"Here."

Qin Huai picked out a box and signaled Shenwu Tianqi to deliver the rest to the workshop.

"Tell the Jinwu Guards on duty tonight that I want to see the Fire Master of Shouzhuoting before noon tomorrow."

"Here."

As Fu Mengmaojie and Xiao Gui left one after another, Qin Huai returned to the workshop and took out the [Pixiu Pot] that had been left in his personal space for a long time.

Looking at the gray pendant that was only the size of a pigeon egg, Qin Huai picked up a gold brick and began an endless offering.

Unlike Ma Qi who received immediate feedback after paying a small amount of money, Qin Huai paid in a full 5,000 taels of gold before Yanfu's reminder appeared.

Five thousand taels of gold can be exchanged for fifty thousand taels of silver in the Tang Dynasty, which equals five thousand Yamabu points.

But this huge sum of money suddenly became nothing compared to the generous feedback from the [Pixiu Basin].

[Blessing of Heaven]: Consumable, increases awakening degree by 50% after use.

Note: This is the best feedback that [Pixiu Basin] provides to the host after its first evolution.

50% awakening degree, if it is put in Tianjiu and asked Wan'an to purchase it, it will cost at least tens of thousands of Yanfu points. Now that it can be discounted by half, it is really a rare good thing.

[The Blessing of Heaven] is a ball of tangible and intangible golden starlight. Qin Huai stretched out his hand and the bright starlight scattered into his body. The warm current gathered in the Niwan Palace. A sense of confidence as if he was rich emerged in Qin Huai's heart for no reason.

"Please freely allocate the awakening degree."

Qin Huai was not in a hurry. He took out the [Lianshan Fish Bag] containing the power of rat and absorbed it before he began to distribute 57% of the free awakening degree.

There is no need to consider how to choose between 70% of Tianwu's spirit and 14% of the body of the enlightened beast.

[Your current awakening degree of Tianwu Spirit is 99%+28%]

[Canglan increases physique and strength by 124%]

"You already have an inheritance that has reached 99%."

"You can apply for the 'Eight Extremes Walking' test at any time. Yanfu will arrange the walk and test you within two months. Once you pass, you will enjoy the privilege of the Eight Extremes Walking."

“Apply now.”

"An agent with a rating of [Seventh Palace] or above will test you. Please wait patiently."

Just as Qin Huai was about to put away the remaining gold and exchange it for silver to exchange for Yanfu points, the familiar sound of breaking air rang out again.

"Your Baji Walking Permit has been approved. Reviewer: Zhan Yuejin."

“Note: Read more books, read more newspapers, look at the moon less, and sleep more.”

Qin Huai looked at the concern written on the note, grinned, but didn't care.

"You have earned the title of Baji Level Walking."

You gain the following new permissions:

1. Forty square meters of imprint space, which can be used to store and retrieve items, but cannot hold living things.

2. You can choose the Yamabu event independently, but you cannot change the fruit sequence.

3. You can activate some Yamabu events published by high-authority Yamabu walkers, and the rewards for these events are provided by the publishers.

"Know in advance the next Jambu incident? It feels like a double-edged sword."

Thinking of his recent experience, Qin Huai's eyes flickered, and he didn't think this was a completely good thing.

Qin Huai put the [Pixiu Basin], which had grown to the size of a washbasin, back into his personal space and took out the [Purification Centrifuge].

After taking out half a tube of blood from the arteries, veins and heart of the [Half-Immortal], Qin Huai poured the black-gray liquid, which was as viscous as petroleum, into the [Purification Centrifuge] and pressed the button.

Five minutes later, looking at the colorful blood separated by the [Purification Centrifuge], Qin Huai unconsciously compared it with the [Blood of Nidhogg] he purified the day before.

Through careful control of the fiery red slurry, Qin Huai experimented with many methods, and finally adopted the water bath method to solve the problem of separating the original liquid by evaporation and extraction.

After spending enough time and effort, he was able to purify up to 40% of the [Blood of Nidhogg].

At this moment, he was holding two tubes of colorful blood that looked extremely similar. With a quick glance, the [Angra Blood] in his sight finally revealed its true appearance.

[Blood of Angra]: After being extracted and purified by dozens of Zoroastrian secret arts, the concentration of [Blood of Nidhogg] is 52%. However, due to the primitive and rough purification method, there are many harmful impurities, which will greatly damage the life span of the user.

Note: The Road to the Gods, the Stairway to the Gods, call it what you want, anyway, this is the starting point of that road.

"It seems that the Prince of Dongping in the Tang Dynasty is hiding deeper than anyone imagined."

Qin Huai thought about An Lushan's threat rating, and a hint of coldness flashed across his cyan-gold pupils.
