Gu Chao looked at the three-headed and six-armed Li Guanqi in front of him, and chuckled: "You can easily block even the evil-slaying sword, so what's the use of other treasures? The extraordinary king is indeed the extraordinary king, hopelessly powerful, Mr. Li
, did you know? On the southern land, there are even legends about the appearance of gods. Well, a god of war with white hair and blue eyes."
"..."
Li Guanqi looked at the skinny old man, was silent for a moment, and then sighed softly, "Gu Chao, that rainy night back then, it was you who made me know the existence of Penglai for the first time.
It was you who made me think that night watchmen are all heroic people like you... I understand what you experienced, and I can understand that the injustice you encountered later caused a change in your personality."
"But what?"
Gu Chao smiled slightly, "Usually words like this have to be followed by 'but', right?"
"But why are you doing this?"
Li Guanqi said in confusion: "You can obviously do better, but you have suffered injustice from the superior. After replacing you, shouldn't you think about becoming a better superior?
But you are more hateful than the original superior.
You can completely make the Southern Heavenly Master Army become the same as the Northern Red Blood Army.
At the very least, you should not allow them to burn, kill, and loot as they please in the southern land.
And you don’t need to collect so much from the heavy tributes and taxes you pay to various tribes and sanctuaries, right?”
"wrong."
Gu Chao smiled and said calmly: "If the tax is light, the life of the people at the bottom will become better. If the life of the people at the bottom is better, if they have more time, they will want to resist.
And I won't give them any free time to think that way.
As for condoning the cruelty of the Heavenly Master Army?
But this is human nature.
I don’t want to suppress humanity, I don’t want to suppress mine, and I don’t want to suppress theirs. The strong should do whatever they want and do whatever they want.”
"It's just a beast."
Li Guanqi denied: "Those who have strong strength and can stick to their own bottom line are the real strong people."
"Everyone has his own ambition."
Gu Chao's smile remained the same, "Mr. Li, I guess you are not here to sit and talk with me today."
"you're right."
Li Guanqi's eyes darkened, "I'm here to kill you. You shouldn't let the Heavenly Master's army act so recklessly on the southern land. You need to be responsible for the crimes they have accumulated over the past decades. The countless people who were killed by the Heavenly Master
I also need to give an explanation to the families who were oppressed by the military, tortured to death, and destroyed."
"What about the people I saved?"
Gu Chao smiled, "You have to give an explanation to those who were killed by the Heavenly Master Army, but what about those who were saved by the Heavenly Master Army? Did we save them in vain?"
"I was thinking about this too at first."
Li Guanqi looked calm, "But on the way here, Director Lin said something that woke me up.
He said that those who protect the people should not and must not have the right to persecute the people.
This is something that absolutely should not happen, and this is not how things in the world should be.
Your Heavenly Master Army has protected many people in the south, but this does not mean that you have the right to oppress them and exploit them."
"ha."
Gu Chao shook his head and laughed, "It's just the butt that determines the head. I am the King of Penglai in the wasteland era. I stand in the position of the ruler of the south and see things from the ruler's perspective. But Lin Taoist can obviously stand in the ruler's perspective."
Despite his position, he always likes to look at things from the perspective of ordinary people and think about them."
"That's why."
Li Guanqi looked at him seriously, "Taoist Master Lin has my respect, but you can't."
"Maybe, maybe."
Gu Chao nodded and said casually: "I just said, you are not here to sit and talk, there is no need to argue about this anymore."
"It doesn't matter anymore."
Gu Chao faced Li Guanqi, smiled and opened his hands, "Mr. Li, at least I can die in the hands of your extraordinary king. I, Gu Chao... am honored!"
"..."
Li Guanqi's eyes were slightly cold, "If twenty-year-old Gu Chao saw you now, he would definitely be very disappointed."
This sentence made Gu Chao, who had been smiling from beginning to end, completely lose the smile on his face.
He lowered his head and remained silent.
Li Guanqi turned around and left.
"Mr. Li!"
Gu Chao said in a deep voice behind him: "I hope you won't be like me. I hope that when you see yourself in the future, you will be proud instead of disappointed."
"I will."
Li Guanqi's tall figure with three heads and six arms is resolute and determined.
"boom!"
The next moment, a strong wind enveloped Gu Chao, cutting his entire body into pieces, including his soul.
King Penglai, who had ruled the southern wasteland for decades, died completely.
This also means that the Tianshi Army's decades-long rule over the southern wasteland has come to an end.
"call--"
When the strong wind dissipated, a black mist followed, swallowing up Gu Chao's flesh, blood, spiritual power, and soul power.
Technique, "Plunder"!
Of course, there were two things that were not plundered, a round bead and a jade pendant.
But what Li Guanqi cares about is not these two Tianshi Mansion relics.
But... when the black mist returned to his body, the realization of the law suddenly emerged in his mind.
"Um?"
Li Guanqi's complexion changed slightly.
This is the understanding of the law of wind.
This must belong to Gu Chao.
His technique can even rob him of law insights?
Wait, then why didn't he plunder the Wind, Thunder, Light, Darkness and Golden Law from the five-element-level demon species when he killed the Thunder Giant Lizard?
Or... the reason why he was able to plunder this law understanding was actually because Gu Chao had the core of the spell in his body?
Of course, demons also have organs that absorb spiritual power, but they are not named magic organs.
Because they cannot be condensed into a spell core.
Only a spellcaster can condense the magic organ into the core of magic, allowing this extraordinary organ to evolve again.
In other words, when Li Guanqi just plundered Gu Chao's flesh and blood, he also plundered his shattered spell core. Because of this, he gained Gu Chao's understanding of the law of wind.
"So...I don't need to rely entirely on self-enlightenment."
Li Guanqi suddenly realized.
"I only need to kill the four-elephant and five-element level conjurers!"
The plundering technique is not omnipotent, and even energy needs to be transformed. It is certainly impossible to use someone else's understanding of the law.
But this at least means that he can obtain a large number of other people's understanding of the law by hunting down four-elephant-level conjurers, draw parallels, use stones from other mountains to attack jade, and increase the speed of his own understanding of the law.
That's enough!
"very good."
Li Guanqi smiled, and he had one more goal for his next trip to the strange world.
Hunt the Spellcaster!
He has many records of killing enemies beyond levels, including killing four-elephant-level warriors of different blood, and also killing five-element-level monsters.
But really speaking, his record against magicians is too little.
He has never even killed a four-elephant-level conjurer. It is no wonder that he only discovered today that the plunder spell can also plunder law insights.
Li Guanqi will not kill innocent people indiscriminately for his own benefit.
But in the strange world, it is too easy to find a four-elephant level magician who deserves death. There is never a shortage of such goods in the large bandit dens in southern Xinjiang.
He only needs to hunt down a large number of spellcasters who are above the Four Elephant Thunder realm, and he can speed up his understanding of the law of thunder, quickly break into the Four Elephant Thunder realm, and become a mid-stage Four Elephant conjurer.
…
…
Longhu Mountain, above.
When the 100-meter wind ball gradually dissipated, what appeared in front of Lin Xianbai, Han Mengyao, and Chi Xiaoxiao were only a white-haired figure in black clothes and two things in his hands.
A blue round bead, the Wind Spirit Bead.
A golden jade pendant, a god-conferring jade.
They are all relics of the Tianshi Mansion. Unfortunately, they can only be used within the scope of Longhu Mountain. Taking them away by force will only cause them to self-destruct.
At least that's the case for now.
With Li Guanqi's current level of knowledge in battle formation and seals, which can only be described as superficial, it is impossible to break Zhang Tianshi's curse seal.
He can only stay in Longhu Mountain for now. When he becomes a formation master, he might be able to break the seal and take away these treasures - provided that Taoist Master Lin is willing to give them.
but.
With Li Guanqi's current growth rate, to be honest, he doubts whether he will still need something of this level when that day comes.
I guess it won't be needed at all.
"Director Lin, the rest of the matter is left to you."
Li Guanqi returned to Chixiao x8 and threw the Wind Lingzhu and Fengshen Jade to Lin Xianbai, "Speaking of which..."
He looked around at the empty Longhu Mountain and asked curiously: "Where have those Heavenly Master troops gone? I didn't see any of them from beginning to end. Scarlet Blood Mountain is full of Red Blood Army. Could it be that here, the Heavenly Master Army
Not even allowed to go to Longhu Mountain?"
"Why do you think the violent wind summoned by Gu Chao is so strong?"
Lin Xianbai played with the ball beads and jade pendant in his hand, and said softly, "I first met Gu Chaoshi more than ten days ago. His spiritual power was only at the level of the early Four Symbols. But what about today? That law of wind.
The power is completely beyond the standard. You have experienced it yourself, so you should know better than me."
"...No wonder!"
Li Guanqi's face darkened, "Blood sacrifice? It can only be a blood sacrifice type of spell. He sacrificed all the Celestial Masters on Longhu Mountain to gain strength. Today, his cultivation level is almost at the peak of the Four Elephants. It is estimated that
To sacrifice tens of thousands of different-blooded humans, we need a large number of second-level and third-level ones."
Chi Xiaoxiao and Han Mengyao next to them heard this and their eyes narrowed slightly.
"Gu Chao is so cruel."
Chi Xiaoxiao said in a deep voice.
"He has long stopped taking human life as his life."
Lin Xianbai sighed softly.
"Watching chess."
Lin Xianbai looked at Li Guanqi again and said seriously: "Thank you for your help. As for now... well, give me some time. I want to tidy up Longhu Mountain. I don't know what Gu Chao has done to him in the past few decades.
What did the mountain do?
As far as I know, there should be a large enemy formation in Longhu Mountain.
But Gu Chao never opened it from the beginning to the end. It is estimated that the formation base has been destroyed, otherwise he would not be able to use it, but if even this kind of thing is destroyed... I doubt what is left in Longhu Mountain."
As he said this, Lin Xianbai couldn't help but sigh deeply.
I haven’t been home for a hundred years. As soon as I came home, I found that my family’s assets were almost completely empty...
"OK."
Li Guanqi nodded and said calmly: "Then I will go back with Mengyao first, and you will come to us when the time comes. We will also discuss the matter of renovating the wasteland at that time."
"Just wait for me."
Lin Xianbai smiled slightly, "During the two days when you were in Guanmeng Sanctuary, Xiao Xiao and I talked a lot. I already have a rough prototype of the reconstruction plan. When the time comes, I will go back to the Scarlet Blood Palace and throw some paper at you.
Tuan, just come out and have another two days of honeymoon with Miss Han first."
Li Guanqi smiled.
Next, after a few simple greetings, Lin Xianbai stayed at Longhu Mountain, while Chi Xiaoxiao drove Chixiao x8 and took Li Guanqi and Han Mengyao to Scarlet Blood Mountain again.
…
…
After Li Guanqi, Han Mengyao and Chi Xiaoxiao reminisced about the past in Scarlet Blood Mountain, they chose to return to Guanmeng Sanctuary that night.
Then, it will be exactly the same as the simulator.
Li Guanqi and Han Mengyao began to live a life without shame or impatience.
As a basketball enthusiast, Li Guanqi almost spent the next two days playing basketball duels with Han Mengyao. Occasionally, when he couldn't bear it with ordinary people's physical fitness, he quietly unlocked a little life energy.
In the end, Li Guanqi discovered that it was most suitable to play basketball with Han Mengyao using his level 2 physical strength.
Two pleasant days passed quietly like this.
Because Lin Xianbai’s paper ball finally arrived.
…
…
Red Blood Palace.
A carp pond courtyard.
Li Guanqi, Han Mengyao, Lin Xianbai, and Chi Xiaoxiao gathered together again. They were sitting in the pavilion by the pool, talking about the reconstruction of human civilization.
"What a detailed reconstruction plan. It's really yours, Taoist Lin."
Li Guanqi sat next to Han Mengyao, holding a thin tablet in his hand, and kept swiping down on the projected screen, memorizing the contents of many plans.
One, two, three...
Um?
That's not right.
Li Guanqi's fingers slid faster and faster, and his expression became weirder.
Dividing grain fields, purifying water sources, equipping troops with weapons, and exploring conditions throughout Asia and overseas... none of these projects are what he has to do.
At the bottom of every civilization reconstruction project, the corresponding person in charge is written, but none of them have anything to do with him.
"Actually, you can just turn to the last page."
Lin Xianbai suddenly said.
"oh."
Li Guanqi did as he was told.
On the last page, there is only one item.
【Urban Cleanup Plan】
This is a map that includes all city ruins in the north and south, but only about a hundred city ruins are marked with asterisks.
"What's the meaning?"
Li Guanqi looked at Lin Xianbai curiously.
Because at the bottom of this map, the words "Responsible person: Li Guanqi" are clearly written.
"Urban ruins are the restricted area of life in the wasteland era."
Lin Xianbai smiled, "Since the rain of blood, the city has been occupied by zombies of different blood and various monsters. Human beings have been forced to withdraw from the city and can only survive in the wilderness.
And now, after 80 years, we humans should take it back.
That's our home, not the monster's.
As for why you are only given this one task... These hundreds of cities may seem like a lot, but in fact, for you, this task is much simpler than other tasks. With your strength, just push it across the board.
No need to waste time and trouble.
There are 128 cities in total.
This is the result of a long discussion between Xiao Xiao and I. We have reduced the number of cities to a minimum. These are cities suspected of being infested by level 4 zombies.
Therefore, Guanqi, except you, no one has the strength to clear these places.
As for the land outside the north and south, we have no control over it for the time being.
Let’s take care of our own territory first, then slowly deal with the whole of Asia, and then start overseas.
In short.
Guanqi, you only need to clean up these 128 cities now.
As for other trivial matters of civilization reconstruction, leave it to me and Xiao Xiao. Of course, we must also add the technical support of Guanmeng Sanctuary.
Is it okay if I arrange it this way?"
Lin Xianbai said, looking at Li Guanqi and Han Mengyao with a smile, "I think, for you two, instead of spending time on rebuilding civilization, you would actually prefer to go back to Guandeng Sanctuary to live a small life, right? But
Sorry, humanity really needs you."
"This is a great plan."
Li Guanqi memorized the projected map by heart and nodded, "I can not only contribute to the reconstruction of human civilization, but also have more time for myself. My dedication and selfishness have basically reached a balance, so be it!"
Li Guanqi looked at Han Mengyao beside him, held her soft little hand, and smiled brightly.
"Let's go, finish it quickly, let's go home!"
…
…
"boom!"
In the south, among the ruined streets of a city, a terrifying storm with a height of 100 meters and a width of 30 meters swept through like a broken bamboo. Not only did it roll all the zombies and monsters along the way into minced meat, it also swept a large number of people along the way.
of dilapidated buildings were bulldozed together.
And there is more than one such terrifying storm.
But a full six seats!
The six 100-meter storms moved forward extremely fast, rushing through the ruins of the city, continuously flattening the city at a speed visible to the naked eye. Countless gravel was lifted up, rotated with the strong wind, and intensified to a certain extent.
overcome the destructive power of strong winds.
In the blink of an eye, only the city center was left in the entire city that had not been swept away by the storm.
This city is called Jiacheng.
But soon, Jiacheng will be completely reduced to history along with all the monsters in the city.
"Chief, chief, don't you always say that... a city is a restricted area of life, and whoever goes there will die?"
Tens of thousands of meters away from Jiacheng.
On a hillside, a young man wearing animal skin clothing looked at the strong man wearing animal skin armor next to him, with a look of confusion on his face.
But the strong man looked at the disappearing Jiacheng in the distance, the expression on his face was not much different from his.
"Lord Lord."
The young man said blankly: "Since the restricted area of life has been razed, can the zombies and monsters there still survive?"
