Chapitre 33: Evolving Through Killing

Éditeur: Modlawls123

The Orc Village with 5,000 Orcs was north to the Great Qin Village and was most likely an Advanced Village. After discussing with Bai Qi and the others, Zhao Fu decided that it would be best to avoid them for now. As such, he decided not to explore northwards temporarily to avoid encountering the Orcs. At the same time, he also ordered everyone in the village to strengthen defenses and to be careful.

The Dwarf race naturally knew how to forge and was gifted at forging. Even though they were Grey Dwarves, they had Forging skills, and their help greatly relieved the burden on Wang Dawu. Now, Zhao Fu would be able to mass-produce equipment.

Zhao Fu first arranged for the 10 Goblin Warriors’ shields to be repaired, after which he took out the command seal and released the 10 Skeleton Cavalrymen. This caused quite a few cries of shock and fear, but Zhao Fu quickly explained that the Skeleton Cavalry was part of the village. Zhao Fu planned to make a new set of armor for the Skeleton Cavalry to increase their defense. Skeleton Cavalry was already quite powerful, and if the Skeleton Cavalrymen Fu had a set of complete armor, even Zhao Fu would not be able to kill them easily.

At this moment, one of the villagers apart of the scouting team reported, “Your Majesty! We’ve discovered a Goblin Village 12 kilometers west from here!”

Zhao Fu wanted to test out the idea he had at the bottom of the crack. As such, he took 300 soldiers and headed west of the Great Qin Village. The Goblin Village was like Logue Village, and there were around 300 Goblins. Out of the 300 Goblins, 200 of them were able to fight. The defenses around the village were quite weak as well.

By now, the sun was starting to set, which was when the Goblins were returning from hunting. Zhao Fu immediately split his soldiers into 4 teams and set an ambush for the Goblins. They killed all 4 teams, causing the Goblin Village to lose 160 of its villagers.

The Goblin villagers hadn’t detected any danger yet. It was getting dark, and they were currently waiting for the hunting teams to bring back food.

However, they were disappointed – not only did no Goblins return, but fire arrows also started to shoot into the village, killing many Goblins and setting many of their buildings on fire.

After a while, the Goblins finally realized that it was an enemy attack, and they gathered their forces and rushed out of the village.

When Zhao Fu saw that there were less than 100 Goblins rushing at them, he summoned 10 Skeleton Cavalrymen and took the rest of his soldiers to meet the attack.

The Skeleton Cavalry spurred their Skeleton horses forth.

The Skeleton horses galloped towards the Goblins, and after the Goblins saw how terrifying the 10 Skeleton Cavalrymen looked, they became completely scared. However, they mustered up all of their courage and continued charging for their village.

Chi! Chi! Chi…

The Skeleton Soldiers stabbed the Goblins and pierced through their chests chests, causing blood to spray into the air.

The 10 Skeleton Cavalrymen were like a sharp blade that stabbed into the Goblin forces. They rushed through the entire group, completely unstoppable, and split the Goblins into two groups – this was the might of Cavalry.

Following this, Zhao Fu’s Shieldbearers and Infantry rushed up and started to fight at close quarters with the Goblins. The Goblins had no chance at all – they had been completely outnumbered from the beginning and been scared witless by the Skeleton Cavalry, greatly reducing their morale.

Zhao Fu decided that it was enough and told Old Logue to convince the Goblins to surrender. Unsurprisingly, the Goblin Village chose to surrender.

By now, there were only 80 or so Goblins remaining. Most of them were elderly, pregnant females, or children, and there were only 10 or so of them that could fight. They had no choice but to surrender.

Zhao Fu looked over at the 10 Skeleton Cavalrymen. After the battle had concluded, they stayed beside the Goblins’ corpses, and streams of grey aura flowed out from the corpses into the Skeleton Cavalrymen. Following this, the soul fire within the Skeleton Cavalrymen’s heads became stronger.

“They can evolve through killing?” Zhao Fu muttered to himself in surprise.

Zhao Fu didn’t mind this – after all, being able to evolve through killing was quite convenient for him. Afterwards, he went to the Village Hall to conquer the village and [Relocate] it. He received a system announcement that told him him that he had obtained 50 Achievement Points and that the Great Qin Village had obtained 201 EXP. Following this, he brought a few of the Goblin corpses back to the Great Qin Village.

Zhao Fu then took some people to the altar where the bones were to test out his idea. He put one of the Goblin corpses within the formation before activating it.

When the formation was activated, light shot out from it as a formless energy lifted the Goblin corpse into the air. The Goblin’s blood and flesh seemed to melt, but they did not fall onto the altar. Instead, they flew towards its head.

Following this, the Goblin corpse became a skeleton as a blood-red orb of light floated at the center of its forehead. The magic formation stopped, and the skeleton landed on the ground as the blood-colored orb of light floated in the air.

Zhao Fu walked up and looked at its information. Even with his personality, he could help but laugh out loud, “Let’s see who can stop the rise of the Great Qin Empire.”

[F Grade Orb]: Description: A soul’s source energy taken from a living or once-living being. After using the orb, one’s grade can be upgraded to F grade.

Even though he knew that the magic formation was for refining corpses, Zhao Fu had never thought that such an orb of light would be produced – it could actually change a person’s grade.

Of course, it didn’t matter that the orb was only F grade. If he could obtain high grade corpses of S, SS, or SSS grade beings, the orbs of light refined from them would be able to greatly improve his people’s grades.

Right now, Cultivation did not matter too much. However, the future would be decided by soldiers with high Cultivation Stages, and the higher the grade of his soldiers, the faster they would be able to cultivate.

“What is it, Your Majesty?” Bai Qi asked curiously. He almost never saw Zhao Fu act like this, and this was strange for him.

Zhao Fu handed him the Grade Orb, and after looking at it, Bai Qi said in shock, “There are such heaven-defying things in the world?”

Zhao Fu nodded. After thinking back to the Heaven and Earth Refining Formation’s description, which said that it was one of the Six Great Heaven-Defying Magic Formations, he couldn’t help but wonder what the other 5 were.

“Your Majesty, obtaining such a heaven-defying formation is Great Qin’s great fortune!” Thinking about Great Qin’s future, Bai Qi congratulated Zhao Fu as he cupped his hands.

“Alright,” Zhao Fu said, “right now, this place is our most important place, so we should take steps to protect it.”

Afterwards, Bai Qi took 400 people to block each of the other passages.

Zhao Fu did not know where those other passages led to or what could come out of them, so he could only block them for now before slowly exploring each one.

That was the main job for the next few days. After arranging all of this, Zhao Fu came out of the Heaven Awaken World and read on the forum that the whole world was starting to descend into chaos. Nations, beliefs, and races started to violently clash together.


Chapitre 34: Holy Light City

Éditeur: Modlawls123

Currently, all of China’s borders were threatened with war. Above was the Tsarist Empire, who glared at China like a tiger watching its prey, and below were various forces from Vietnam. To China’s left were as many as 23 Indian nations and empires, and to its right was Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla’s provocations. There was also Oda Nobunaga’s descendant, Oda Kamiya from Japan.

The Ancient Roman Empire had also been revived, and the Holy See started to create an army of Crusaders for religious purposes. In the west, it was said that King Arthur Pendragon’s descendant, Tina Pendragon, had already obtained Excalibur.

At the same time, the descendants of the ancient Pharaohs had also started to rise in power, and there were also many barbaric tribes starting to develop.

The entire Heaven Awaken World seemed to descend into chaos, and less and less restraint was being shown. Because nations, faiths, and cultures were different, various factions started to wage war on each other. The most intense fighting was in cities that bordered counties, and blood started to dye the earth red in those places. Of course, the most chaotic place was China.

China had always been the overlord of the east, and it had offended many nations over the course of history. It had been spied on by countless people, and its land shared borders with many other countries, making conflict inevitable.

Zhao Fu read a few threads, and most of them were about how Chinese people living near the borders had been humiliated in various ways. Many people in the real world created threads mocking how powerless China was, making tensions in the real world quite high as well.

This completely infuriated many of China’s Legatees. The state of Zhao’s Legatee, Zhao Yang, was situated near a border. He gathered all of the Chinese people in the area and slaughtered 10 enemy villages, gaining a lot of reputation and fame.

That was the situation at the borders: either one faction would attack or the other one would. The land was filled with killing and darkness, and before anything had officially started, the world had descended into chaos.

If it was already like this now, what would it be like in the future?

Zhao Fu returned to the Heaven Awaken World and used a few days to block off all the other passages at the bone-filled space. However, he left a few open to start exploring them. At the same time, Zhao Fu ordered his soldiers to continue patrolling the area around the Great Qin Village. If they could find any villages, Zhao Fu would absorb them to increase the number of people he had.

This was something that he had to do: the threat of the 5,000 Orcs was simply too great, and if they were unlucky enough to be discovered, they would not stand a chance.

Zhao Fu went to the Research Workshop. He had not heard anything about the teleportation channels yet, so he planned to put that on pause to ask his Scholars to start researching skills that could allow him to see the grades of corpses. Lords could only look at the grades of their subordinates, so such a skill was incredibly important to him now that he had the Heaven and Earth Refining Formation.

Just as he entered the Research Workshop, Bai Shan came up to him with a look of delight as he reported, “Your Majesty! We’ve successfully researched teleportation channels!”

This was quite a pleasant surprise to Zhao Fu. Following this, he immediately ordered some people to build a teleportation channel in the Great Qin Village.

What they built was a Primary Teleportation Channel, and it could only transport 2-3 people each time. In order to create more advanced teleportation channels, the Scholars would have to do more research, and since this teleportation channel was sufficient, Zhao Fu asked the Scholars to start researching skills that would allow him to see the grades of corpses.

Now that they had teleportation channels, Zhao Fu changed his mind and decided to go have a look at a main city. After the teleportation channel was completed, it could connect to a main city’s teleportation channel and take him there directly.

Zhao Fu called Bai Qi over and brought along the 236 silver coins they had accumulated and a few Blue grade weapons. He took the Blue grade weapons to make sure that he would be able to buy what he wanted.

Zhao Fu and Bai Qi stood on the teleportation channel, and when Zhao Fu stretched out his hand, he saw the names ‘Holy Light City,’ ‘Soldier Forest,’ and ‘Demon Tree City’.

Zhao Fu thought for a moment, and Bai Qi and he both put on black cloaks to cover their appearances – he didn’t want their appearances and identities to be revealed. As for where they were going to go, Zhao Fu thought about the Undead in the passage, so he chose Holy Light City. After a dizzying feeling swept over them, Zhao Fu and Bai Qi arrived at a very large stage. There was a heavy crossbow set up nearby, and there were many soldiers standing guard. Whenever something happened, they would immediately turn off the teleportation channel and kill any enemies that had entered.

Zhao Fu casually looked around before they went to a large street. The street was quite wide, and it was filled with shops. There were many people on the street, and it was bustling with activity.

Something interesting was that all sorts of players had their own stands to sell equipment and skills, and most of them were quite ordinary.

Zhao Fu looked around with interest. Because he didn’t have anything planned, he just wanted to have a look around the city.

As he walked along the street, Zhao Fu realized just how massive Holy Light City was. It was able to rival the grand, ancient cities of the past, and it could easily accommodate more than 1 million people. It would take at least a few days to walk around the entire city by foot.

Soon, Zhao Fu and Bai Qi arrived at the Quest Centre.

There were 5 stone steles that were 4 meters tall and 2 meters wide. From left to right, they displayed different levels of quests, which were split into Easy, Normal, Difficult, Nightmare, and Hell.

Easy quests usually required the person to help people with fairly simple tasks such as finding ordinary materials.

The first stone stele was surrounded by people who were waiting for quests. Right now, 1 copper coin was worth $10, and completing just a few of these was already better than their normal wages. As such, many people were drawn to spending most of their time in the Heaven Awaken World.

The second stone stele was the Normal Quest Stone Stele, and there were also many people there, making it impossible for Zhao Fu to squeeze in.

The third stone stele was the Difficult Quest Stone Stele. There were much fewer people here because the quests usually entailed killing the leader of an Outlander tribe or finding a rare material.

Zhao Fu went to the fifth stone stele, the Hell Quest Stone Stele, and looked at the quests to satisfy his curiosity.

1\. Kill [Six Eyed Demon Flood Dragon]: Quest Description: The Six-Eyed Demon Flood Dragon is a Lord grade being that lives in the deepest part of the Forest of Horrors. Its strength is so terrifying that it can cause one to fall into the pit of despair. Rewards: 100,000 Merit Points and 1 piece of Legendary grade equipment.

2\. Kill [Orc Kaki]: Quest Description: The Lord of a small Orc city situated north of the Forest of Horrors who commands 40,000 or so Orcs. Rewards: 50,000 Merit Points and 1 piece of Legendary grade equipment.

3\. Search for [Saint Origin Fruit]: Description: Saint Origin Fruit, a Grade 7 Medicinal Grass that can heal all wounds and change one’s grade. Reward: 20,000 Merit Points and 1 piece of Gold grade equipment.

……………………………

After looking through these quests, Zhao Fu realized that the Six-Eyed Demon Flood Dragon was the biggest Boss in the Forest of Horrors, and it was most likely an existence that even main cities did not dare to offend. Who could complete such a quest?

The second quest required one to kill an Orc called Kaki, and it also seemed quite impossible – the 40,000 Orcs would not just sit by and do nothing. At the same time, Zhao Fu understood that there were no main cities north of the Forest of Horrors because there were powerful Outlanders there.

The third quest completely depended on one’s luck. Someone might be incredibly lucky and fall into some sort of cave that had the Saint Origin Fruit. However, Zhao Fu was not attracted by the third quest’s rewards because Bai Qi already had a Gold grade weapon, so Gold grade weapons were no longer as alluring to Zhao Fu.
