Chapter 766: Traveling Thousands of Miles
This time, Chu Fei walked very easily, even in a carefree way.
He solved the crisis of the mother nest, solved the crisis of the Tianlong people, took care of his friends, and reached the limit of his cultivation. Everything was so perfect.
Compared with the previous escapes, this time was the most comfortable.
On the earth, two huge land cities were moving eastward, while Chu Fei and Wu Yong drove two large motorcycles to the west.
On Chu Fei's motorcycle, there was a small cloth bag with more than a dozen "pills" in it.
Chu Fei first saw the pills at the trade fair at the entrance of the Hongsong City Pharmacy Trading Center, and wanted to buy them but couldn't. Now, after a long journey, Chu Fei finally got them, and he didn't spend a penny.
Speaking of which, in the environment that Chu Fei is currently exposed to, everyone prefers to use medicines. Because medicines have good effects, mature technology, large quantities, and relatively cheap prices.
In addition, there are very few aerosol and solid sol drugs.
Aerosols are easy to dissipate, have low utilization effects, are difficult to preserve, are expensive, and are difficult to make. The market is still small; naturally, they have declined.
As for solid sols, the common ones are so-called elixirs, and low-level ones may be called Chinese patent medicines.
The elixirs here are not as magical as those in the works of cultivation. Chu Fei has never seen them. Maybe it will change after 12.0.
The elixirs here are not as effective as medicines. Under the premise of the same cost, the efficacy of elixirs is generally only 70% to 80% of that of medicines, and the effect is slow after taking them. But elixirs also have an advantage, which is that they can be stored for a long time.
For medicines, it is difficult to store them for more than one year in a natural state, and most of them are three months to six months; if you want to store them for a long time, the cost will be high, so it is better to buy new medicines.
But for elixirs, if they are well preserved, they can be stored for five or six years, or even more than ten years, and the storage cost is very low.
Moreover, compared with medicines, the packaging and storage of elixirs are also very easy, just wax pills or plastic shells; while medicines must be stored in special glass bottles, and glass bottles are very poor in portability.
Many medicines are slightly corrosive to plastics, etc., which eventually leads to medicine pollution. Even glass bottles have to use borosilicate glass, quartz glass, etc.
In the end times, industrial capacity itself is problematic, and the production of special glass is too expensive.
In summary, when traveling inland, it may be possible to use elixirs as currency. They have a long shelf life and are easy to carry and store, which has the basis of hard currency.
After thinking for a while, Chu Fei took out a pill and held it in his mouth, carefully feeling the situation of the pill.
These pills are low-level pills refined by Chu Fei for practice. Even if low-level pills are poisonous, they have no effect on Chu Fei.
The large locomotive roared over the rugged mountains and fields. The five-meter-long large locomotive is a small battle fortress.
For long-distance travel, you still have to use a locomotive. Airplanes are not good. There is no logistical supply. Airplanes are very fragile and difficult to dock casually. The fighter planes used for patrols can hover, and the logistical supply requirements are higher.
The most important thing is that airplanes are too ostentatious!
On the way, Chu Fei had to put away his fangs, hide his claws, and suppress his cultivation to the level of 10.0.
Such cultivation is considered the backbone in the inland. It is not high enough, but no one will bully it casually.
Those who can cultivate to 10.0 are already considered the best among people. Who knows if such a person will suddenly explode and then turn around to destroy your whole family.
Even if it does not explode, a 10.0 who deliberately does bad things and secretly kills the whole family can also cause a huge disaster.
But in the more inland places, the rules are more complete. Generally speaking, high-level practitioners are not allowed to hunt low-level practitioners or even ordinary people at will. But revenge is another matter.
However, not being able to hunt does not mean that you cannot humiliate. After all, masters are masters. Humiliating a low-level practitioner or an ordinary person is despicable in principle, but there are many people who do it.
In a thousand words, cultivation is still the most important. And 10.0 is a good realm.
But in addition to cultivation, people must also have the ability to make a living.
In terms of livelihood, Chu Fei will become a "relatively good 10.0 level" pharmacist, who can make some potions, but the quality is not very good. Some unconventional potions can be very good - this is the plan, and the specific situation will be analyzed.
The identity arrangement is confirmed to be no problem, and Chu Fei began to think about his main wealth.
If you want to live freely in the end times, wealth is a must. The wealth here refers to the broad sense, including but not limited to direct wealth and indirect wealth.
Chu Fei's current wealth includes:
1. Mind power, breaking through 500,000. There has been little development recently. His reputation has reached its peak, and there is a reality that people are no longer interested in him;
2. Wisdom dew, breaking through 200,000. He has gained a lot of knowledge recently, from the two continental cities and Shangguan Qinghong, which is very complicated;
3. Captured ghosts: 26 remaining;
4. Captured demons: 112 remaining; I have been practicing and consolidating my foundation recently, and have eaten some demons and ghosts;
5. Medicinal materials on my body: 11 mature and 20 immature 11.0 eagle flowers, thousands of 10.0 gentian fruits, 80 of which are particularly excellent purple gentian fruits; more than a thousand 10.0 ambergris; these medicinal materials were obtained from the Tianlong Secret Realm, and there are still many unfamiliar medicinal materials that have not been studied well;
Gentian fruit and ambergris can be used to refine the epiphany potion; now Chu Fei already knows that it is extremely valuable to feel the residual charm of the dragon. Although the epiphany potion is 10.0, it can be used to cultivate offspring, so the price is high; as we all know, children's money is the easiest to make.
In addition, there are high-level medicinal materials recently obtained from the outside world, such as 7 sets of 13.0 Sun and Moon Twin Lotus, 27 11.0 Moon Grass (primary nourishing spirit potion main medicine), 4 12.0 Moon Spirit Grass (intermediate nourishing spirit potion main medicine), 200 grams of 11.0 Purple Sun Grass (10.0 Purple Sun Solidification Potion main medicine, 12.0 Soul-raising Potion main medicine), 3 12.0 Purple Dragon Bones (main medicine of Purple Frost Poison), and a large number of medicinal materials; the total value of all medicinal materials added up is probably hundreds of billions.
There are also a large number of medicinal materials such as 13.0 Heroic Spirit Flower traded with the Tiger Clan.
The price of top-level medicinal materials is not cheap. Many times, it is not a question of price, but whether it can be bought!
There are also hundreds of Lingyuan fruits cultivated by Chu Fei himself, and he has harvested them. Now he is still cultivating.
Lingyuan fruit is a 12.0 medicinal material, and it feels that the level can be improved with cultivation.
A 12.0 medicinal material that can be produced continuously is of immeasurable value.
It should be said that these medicinal materials are the confidence of Chu Fei to enter the inland.
There are medicinal materials, of course, there must be medicine refining equipment, etc., which need not be said more.
6 Equipment: Four small servers with 4000 Jing computing power, two cold nuclear fusion devices, two life energy conversion devices, and two atomic printing machines, which are all hens that lay golden eggs;
7 Super-dimensional metals: After crazy looting, Chu Fei collected a total of two tons of black iron, 1.2 tons of red copper, about 500 kilograms of mithril, and about 120 kilograms of refined gold.
This is what he got after looting the two continental cities. Among them, black iron and red copper were consumed a lot because of the large number of magic weapons cast, but refined gold and secret silver were almost not consumed, and all of them were in Chu Fei's pocket.
It's not that Chu Fei is greedy, but it's useless to keep them. It's better to take them away. Moreover, a considerable part of the refined gold and secret silver came from the tiger tribe.
8, various crystal cores, energy crystals, etc., especially the complete crystal cores obtained from the tiger tribe, even including a 13.0 tiger crystal core; these are real hard currencies, and Chu Fei is a little reluctant to use them.
9 There are also some other wealth, such as dozens of space capsules-even these, there are still many thrown to Ren Qingyun, it's really too much to take.
There are so many battles, and Chu Fei has a lot of spoils on him. Some of them are dealt with by Qinghong Lucheng, some are thrown to the Pharmacy Research Center, and a considerable part is given to the Self-Help Association-temporarily placed here with Qin Shuya.
In any case, after getting so much spiritual power from the Self-Help Association, there must be some feedback.
Roughly estimated, Chu Fei's wealth has really reached the level of being rich enough to rival a country.
After thinking about wealth, Chu Fei began to think about cultivation.
The secondary brain was responsible for driving the locomotive, and the main cosmic brain was responsible for cultivation, and they did not stop throughout the journey.
While thinking, the locomotive had passed Cangyun City, but Chu Fei and Wu Yong did not stop at all, and continued to move forward. They arrived at Yumen City in the evening, and they did not stop at all, and continued to run wildly.
By the afternoon of the next day, they had crossed more than 2,000 kilometers and arrived at the westernmost high wall of Lieyanlu City, which was also a checkpoint: Liangshan Pass.
At this time, the locomotive could no longer be seen. The baffle was covered with a thick layer of broken plant juice, soil, etc., and even some broken feathers could be seen.
On a hilltop, Chu Fei and Wu Yong looked at Liangshan Pass from a distance.
Chu Fei's mind was surging.
Liangshan Pass is a mountain city, a checkpoint in itself, but also an important hunting base.
There are mountains and ridges between Qinghong Lucheng (Lieyan Lucheng)-Liangshan Pass and Demon Dragon Lucheng-Langya City. There are many alien species here, and people often "guide" alien species to come here.
Through the information given by Shangguan Qinghong, Chu Fei has understood the fundamental reasons and rules for the arrival of alien species.
Whenever the soul breath (negative entropy breath) of people in a region is enough, a "positioning" can be formed. From the perspective of the high-dimensional world, it is like a lighthouse.
There are two ways to form enough soul breath, one is to gather a large number of ordinary people, and the other is to gather enough masters. The soul breath of a master may be equivalent to hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of ordinary people's souls.
The "total amount" of the soul of a master may not be that much, but the quality is very high.
When there is soul positioning, the alien species can find the "navigation coordinates" from the inner world, and then project the alien species to the planet in the surface world.
If you want to avoid the arrival of alien species, there are two ways. One is to keep moving, which is Lucheng. If a coordinate keeps moving, it does not have navigation ability.
According to experience, it takes at least half an hour for an alien species to descend once; if the coordinates move more than a certain distance during the process of descending, it will lead to positioning failure, and half of the descending alien species may be swept away by the space-time turbulence.
So as long as Lu Cheng keeps moving, the alien species will generally not descend; even if they are forced to descend, the possibility of success is very low.
Looking at the low-dimensional world from the high-dimensional world is not so clear. Without positioning, it is like sailing in the fog and not being able to find the exit. If you descend under the earth, you will be buried alive. Or if you don’t reach the low-dimensional world, you will disappear directly in the space-time turbulence.
Another method is to cover up. Use the energy of the earth and other means to interfere, so that the soul breath is obscure and cannot be located.
However, there will be loopholes at the edge of the shield, so the aliens will also descend to the edge.
At the same time, humans will also use this feature to actively form coordinates at the edge to guide the aliens to descend. At this time, this place has been surrounded by artillery, and the aliens will be sent to the edge after they descend.
But the aliens are not stupid, and they also have ways to deal with it. They will descend randomly with the coordinates as the core.
As long as the coordinates do not move, this random descent is still very safe. Moreover, the aliens will not descend at all coordinates. Sometimes, when the coordinates are expanded, there may not be aliens descending.
In addition, the Temple of the God of War is not doing nothing. A few aliens will turn a blind eye and pass by, just as sending resources to the surface world. But if there are a large number of aliens that may cause disasters, they may take action to intercept all or part of them. It depends on the specific situation.
The area between Liangshan Pass and Langya City is a place that humans and aliens are very familiar with.
The mountains are high and the forests are dense, the positioning is stable, and the survival rate of aliens is high, so aliens often descend here.
The purpose of the aliens' arrival is certainly not to deliver food. In addition to interfering with humans, there is also the purpose of devouring human souls and completing evolution.
When the next wave of alien species descends, the previous wave of alien species will be taken back. But only the souls will be taken back.
Human souls are the most special, and humans are born with intelligence. So after the alien species devours the human soul, their intelligence will be enhanced. After the soul returns, it will be reborn.
Chu Fei has seen this kind of reincarnation in the demon spirits and the mother tree of life in the underground secret realm of Feihu City. After the demon spirit dies, it will be absorbed by the mother tree of life and re-bred to give birth to a stronger and smarter demon spirit.
However, the arrival of alien species can also bring the laws of the inner world to the surface world and bring a lot of treasures, so the Temple of War God also turned a blind eye to the arrival of alien species.
The two sides completed a certain transaction invisibly.
At this time, looking at the Liangshan Pass in front of him, Chu Fei flashed this information in his mind, but he could only sigh. In such a world order, individuals can only go with the flow.
After watching for a while, Chu Fei and Wu Yong put away the motorcycle and walked forward.
Walking out of the mountains, Chu Fei and Wu Yong smoothly integrated into the crowd coming in and out.
At this time, Chu Fei and Wu Yong were covered in dust. Chu Fei changed his appearance again and became the Zhang Bing he used to be. Although Wu Yong could not transform, he could just put on a little makeup.
Compared with Chu Fei who was in the limelight and had a good reputation, Wu Yong usually did not go out, and outsiders rarely knew what Wu Yong looked like.
Now there was no household registration, so the two of them put on a little makeup and disappeared directly in the vast crowd.
As for the names, they were even simpler, using code names.
Chu Fei's code name was "Pharmacist" and Wu Yong's code name was "Nameless".
When entering the city, Chu Fei and Wu Yong each paid a 10 yuan city entry tax. The 10 yuan city entry tax was not low. According to the standard of computing power currency, a healthy ordinary person was worth 190 yuan.
But there were basically no ordinary people who could come to Liangshan Pass.
After successfully entering the city, Chu Fei took out a piece of information and began to look for a place to stay.
This information was obtained from Chen Yilong. As for where Chen Yilong came from, Chu Fei didn't care.
Liangshan Pass is not big, that is compared with the large high walls like Cangyun City. For individuals, it is still very big, with more than 200,000 permanent residents.
After looking at the information, Chu Fei waved to the motorcycle in the distance, "Two people, go to the Adventure Hall."
Immediately, two dilapidated motorcycles rushed over.
"How much?" Chu Fei asked domineeringly, and the breath of 10.0 was floating quietly.
The two motorcycle riders were just ordinary people who were making a living. The first one immediately said, "Twenty per person."
Chu Fei took out a hundred-dollar bill, "No need to change. It's not a mercenary union or a mercenary home, it's the Adventure Hall."
"Okay, please take a seat, gentlemen."
The motorcycle roared, with a clattering sound, bypassing a well-planned, military-compliant, winding road, and came to a half-old two-story building.
In front of the building hung a crooked wooden sign, the words on it were a little blurred by wind and rain, and a few large characters written in paint could barely be seen: Adventure Hall.
There were not many people here, but there was no weak person coming in and out. As far as the eye can see, the people serving tea and water are all awakened people of level 8.0.
The motorcycle sent Chu Fei and Wu Yong here and ran away quickly.
Chu Fei looked at the adventure hall in front of him, showed a confident smile, and walked forward with his head held high.
There are many similar "agents" in Liangshan Pass. The adventure hall is an agent that is completely aimed at the strong, and is for individuals and small adventure groups.
This place is suitable for individuals and small teams with a cultivation level of 8.0 or above to take tasks.
In comparison. What kind of mercenary union and mercenary home are particularly chaotic.
Of course, this so-called adventure hall is also chaotic, but not so chaotic.
As soon as Chu Fei and Wu Yong entered the hall, they attracted the attention of more than a dozen pairs of eyes.
Chu Fei looked around and instantly understood the situation in the hall.
There is a window for posting tasks and a window for receiving tasks. The tasks are slowly scrolling on the large screen in the center.
All tasks are divided into 10 star levels according to the danger situation and value, with level 1 being the lowest and level 10 being the highest. Each star has a reference price for the task and the actual price.
Some tasks show that no one has accepted them, while some tasks have been accepted by several people or teams.
Among them, there are several tasks to enter the inland.
The tasks here include further study, treatment, purchase of certain items, building relationships, etc. These tasks are actually accepted.
After looking around, Chu Fei came to the task release window and registered first. Chu Fei registered as "Pharmacist" and Wu Yong registered as "Nameless".
The staff in charge of registration muttered, "How many people are called Pharmacist and Nameless?"
Chu Fei rolled his eyes. It seems that these code names are a bit common. But this is the effect. It is to blend in with the crowd so that you don't look so abrupt, so that you can better integrate into the local environment.
After registering, Chu Fei carefully studied the rules here and then released two tasks:
The first one is to refine potions on behalf of others; this task is not dangerous, but the cost is relatively high. According to the price, it is rated as a 6-star task.
Task Overview: For potions of 10.0 and below, promise to compensate according to the original price of the medicinal materials if the refining fails; potions of 11.0 can be refined, and the success rate can reach more than 80%. Specific interviews.
Second, hire an elite adventure group, danger level: 7 stars:
Within half a year, (Chu Fei and Wu Yong) are going to the inland "Lingyun Kongcheng", and need a 12.0 adventure group. If you are interested, please contact us. Temporary offer: 50 bottles of 11.0 potions, currently including four types of primary nourishing spirit potion, advanced resurrection potion, advanced Ziyang fortification potion, and soul-raising potion (incomplete version) (please consult the task window for details of the potion).
As soon as the news was released, it immediately caused a sensation.
Chu Fei looked at everyone's excitement and smiled. These two tasks were carefully arranged.
It was not until recently that Chu Fei finally knew where Wu Yong came from-the territory ruled by Lingyun Kongcheng.
Lingyun Kongcheng is a "sky city", and the territory under its rule is the center of this continent. In fact, there are also several land cities under Lingyun Kongcheng that are controlled by it; but the scope of activities and control of these land cities is very small, unlike Thunder Land City and Flame Land City, which rule hundreds of millions of people.
From the current location to Lingyun Kongcheng, the straight-line distance is more than 5,000 kilometers. The actual distance must be longer. A long distance is naturally dangerous. So it is rated as a seven-star mission.
However, after discussion, Chu Fei and Wu Yong decided that it would be better to have a team to rely on. One of the important considerations is to arrive inland with fame.
If two people rush to the inland, it is actually difficult to make a name for themselves from scratch, and it is easy to arouse suspicion-especially Wu Yong's identity seems to have great hidden dangers.
But if you make a name for yourself now, and then as the adventure group enters the inland with force, you will naturally establish a signboard, and the result will be better.
After all, there has been such a concept since ancient times: foreign monks are good at chanting. There is also a curiosity, people are always curious about new things.
So, there is this mission.
And the design of the two tasks also cost Chu Fei a lot of brain cells. The two tasks complement each other. The first task is to refine potions, and the second task is to pay the price with potions.
The first task paves the way for the second task, showing that you have the ability to pay; the second task proves the first task, proving that you can refine 11.0 potions!
While Chu Fei was thinking, someone had already rushed to Chu Fei to ask about the potion.
Chu Fei smiled, turned to the staff at the window and said, "Can you help me arrange a seat, let's sit down and talk in detail?"
"Of course, Master, wait a moment." The staff was very respectful, this is the master of alchemy.
The staff was busy, and soon they cleaned up a simple question and answer scene on the spot, and also thoughtfully prepared tea for Chu Fei. (End of this chapter)
