Chapter 278: The Joy of Poaching

It has been more than 40 years since the destruction of Lieyang Sect. It is true that Lieyang Sect is overbearing, but it is always active in the front line of hunting monsters.

Therefore, countless people in Dawu have sighed: If Lieyang Sect is still there, we may not have to be so worried.

In fact, there are very few people who really want it to come back.

Just like the big brother in the previous life, the Chinese will miss it, but they will not expect it to come back.

It is good to have a big tree to shelter from the wind and rain, but it also means

Only the dead Lieyang Sect is the best Lieyang Sect. When the time came to December of the 539th year, the gray and black snow covered the northern part of Dawu and part of the central area. There were more people in Zhongting who had this "nostalgia".

Because more and more monsters began to appear in Dawu.

They are not very organized, just wandering around and strolling to Dawu.

The two countries in the southeast do not miss Lieyang Sect because there is now a fairy mountain.

Moreover, as the sharpest knife in Zhongting, Lieyang Sect suppressed the countries more than cared for them.

So the people in Zhongting who enjoyed the most care from Lieyang Sect would miss it, but the other four countries? They had already switched to Xianshan.

At least Xianshan gave benefits without hesitation, and did not mind the four countries becoming stronger.

Anyway, no matter how strong the four countries were, they were not as strong as the four ancestors. Well, perhaps it should be said that even the four immortal ladies could crush them.

And Zhongting, let alone compared with the prosperous Beimo, has declined to the point where it is not as good as the two countries in the southeast, and can only compete with the Western Wilderness at most.

Of course, this only refers to the strength of the government.

But in the chaotic period, the government was not strong, and a single major force lacked the strength and time to replace it, so it was naturally difficult for the strength of all parties in the country to integrate.

It is true that they are weak.

If it were not for the two great enemies of Yaogui and Gui, and the Xianshan’s slogan of defending the human race formed a consensus, the grass on the graves of the Zhao family, the royal family of Zhongting, would probably be several feet high.

In fact, the top leaders of all the countries in Dawu are aware that the Zhao family has fallen behind in the competition, and the only result that awaits them in the future is to step down.

Whether it will be stepped down vertically or horizontally depends on the attitudes of the Zhao family and the successor.

The only uncertainty is the time. This will happen naturally when Dawu achieves a phased victory in the war with the monsters. Dawu loses? Then everyone has no chance to compete for the position of the Zhao family, and they will become graves together.

For this reason, the four countries are all trying to expand their strength. Even if they cannot become the master of Dawu in the end, they can maintain the current position of the head of the country. Without strength, they may be replaced by another major force one day.

The Zhao family, which has ruled Dawu for 500 years, is the name of the orthodox co-master after all.

This has been the case for generations, and the clans and the people have accepted this. Most people will not like to hear someone slaughter the Zhao family to take the throne.

Therefore, the Zhao family may still have a chance to completely step down and enjoy several generations of wealth.

This is not the case with the head of the country.

The establishment of the four countries varies, but most of them are within 200 years.

At present, only the Northern King Su Yulou enjoys a high reputation in Dawu and is respected by all Dawu people.

As for the three countries of the east, south and west, if the ruler is changed, at most a small number of people in each country will grumble a few words.

People in other countries don't care who is replaced in other countries. For the sake of the lives of their families and even the whole clan, no ruler dares to slack off.

As long as they are strong enough, no one will fight them to death. At most, the four countries of Dawu will become eight countries, or even sixteen countries.

Anyway, Dawu is vast and sparsely populated.

Add to that the Far North Outer Region and the Far West Wasteland, so let alone sixteen countries, it is not a problem to divide it into thirty-two countries.

It didn't work before because the exotic grains were not popularized.

After the third change of the sky, the exotic grains are likely to completely replace ordinary grains and become the staple food of everyone. Even the Far North Outer Region, which can only grow one season of grain, and the Far West Wasteland, which is not suitable for planting, can feed many people.

Now a large number of people have migrated to Nanye, more to survive the shortage of food and materials in the early stage of the change of the sky.

Once they have adapted to the new environment, with sufficient food and supplies, returning to the north is not a problem.

These things are important, but Gu Ke does not need to intervene directly. The influence and control of Xianshan on Dawu comes from two sources: blessings and material transactions.

Blessings continuously create sincere people. It is hard to say how sincere they are, but at least there should be no malice towards Xianshan. Material transactions have an irreplaceable role for ordinary people and masters.

Controlling these two things can influence the actions of various countries and forces, such as migration, disaster relief, encouragement of production, and popularization of martial arts.

Others? They have to exercise their subjective initiative.

Gu Ke is not interested in being an emperor. Seeing a bunch of people scheming in front of him, he is more like a technical geek, enjoying personal fun and exploring new knowledge.

After the third heavenly change, Dawu and the demon world merged into one.

If the encircled Dawu is regarded as a province in the previous life, then the demon world is at least equivalent to an earth.

A vast and boundless world full of souls (monsters) and sources (weird) is exposed in front of him.

The twelve garrison caves that were once close to the Eternal Ice Peak have become the best observation stations.

At this moment, he is in a garrison cave somewhere in the west, and then he projects out and appears in the blessed land.

The remaining Wu Zong in the blessed land did not notice it. The harmony between heaven and man concealed all abnormalities. In Wu Zong's perception, there was nothing where Gu Ke was.

Of course, in order to save trouble, Gu Ke chose a place that was out of Wu Zong's sight.

Otherwise, the third round of strong men would still instinctively feel a little awkward when there was abnormality in their field of vision.

Slightly glancing at the people in this blessed land, most of them are either practicing martial arts or resting after returning from an outing.

A small number of craftsmen and chefs are also busy, providing the best possible logistical support for the warriors.

The Twelve Guarded Lands are the most dangerous blessed lands, but high risks naturally bring high returns, and this is also the place with the greatest gains.

Craftsmen and chefs cannot hunt monsters directly, but they can share the spoils of the warriors through logistical support.

The two prosper together, and if they suffer together, they will lose their jobs.

Now that food is generally in short supply, no one wants to earn less.

If you can't finish it yourself, there are still a lot of relatives and friends who need it.

As for relatives and friends, you can start a family and have more children. In case you die suddenly one day, your bloodline can continue. This is the traditional concept of the great warriors.

Looking at these hardworking and diligent people, Gu Ke smiled. Although life here is dangerous and hard, there is always hope.

His existence cannot satisfy everyone's wishes, but it can keep a little hope for those who are willing to work hard to live, which is good enough.

When the savior is gone, even God can't save himself, it's better not to take yourself too seriously, otherwise what if one day you are as miserable as it.

With a smile, Gu Ge activated the magical power of thousands of rivers and mountains, and the projection disappeared on the spot, instantly passed through the void, and appeared thousands of miles away.

Then it happened again for the second time, and the third time.

In less than ten breaths, he passed through the area where the two realms merged and entered a lake deep in the demon world.

Take a deep breath, the air here is really as Bai Suqing said, there is no particularly unpleasant smell.

On the contrary, it is filled with a large number of free soul sources, which will make people in it feel fresh.

If you have to describe it, the air in Dawu is like that in the city, at most good or bad, but the demon world is like entering the grassland and forest.

Soul source is the best nutrient for the extraordinary group.

No one will hate them, and the body will instinctively desire them, whether it is human or demon.

After evaluating the air here, Gu Ke squatted down, inserted his palm into the ground, and lifted up a large piece of soil.

It was black in color and had some characteristics of humus soil, so it must be fertile.

There were also some large insects that panicked out of the soil and then crawled around anxiously on the soil, as if they were not used to being "moved" suddenly.

Looking at these insects whose size and activity far exceeded that of Da Wu, Gu Ke couldn't help shaking his head: these insects seemed too active.

And the bigger the size, the bigger the appetite will be - this is not good news for Da Wu who is used to planting.

The monsters don't care, because the same kind with a lot of soul source is the best food.

Moreover, they don't mind eating each other.

Because strictly speaking,

this group of Tiangui is not as simple as humans.

In other words, lions and wild dogs are "animals" in the eyes of humans, but they don't think each other is the same kind, and it is impossible to have offspring.

For them, the difference between eating humans or lions (wild dogs) is probably that humans taste better. Besides, the brains of the lower-level monsters are far inferior to those of humans, and primitive instincts outweigh rational thinking.

This situation will not improve until the black monsters and monster generals. They are probably comparable to ordinary humans. Most of the blood monsters and monster kings are very smart. Therefore, the lower-level monsters are naturally kept as food by their "same tribe".

It was not until they entered Dawu that they turned into "companions of the same kind", or cannon fodder.

Back to the point, the overly active monster creatures in the monster world are not good news for the production and life of the people of Dawu.

However, this situation is very good for Gu Ke, because he finally doesn't have to be stingy in Dawu and dig a little bit.

The monster world is so big that even if a few mountains are flattened, it is just a drop in the ocean.

The world in the palm of your hand, which has always been limited by "raw materials", can finally expand at a high speed. The secret realm is not a cave, and there is no system blessing, but it is better than a cave, because it can be completely controlled by him, provided that there are enough raw materials.

In addition to basic materials, raw materials also include soul sources, and soul sources are even the "energy" for him to freely control the secret realm.

It just so happens that the basic materials of the demon world naturally contain rich free soul sources.

Gu Ke does not need to use the soul source reserves in the system, he can do many things by directly "scraping the ground", such as... speeding up the maturity of grain and increasing output.

As long as the raw materials are continuously stuffed into the secret realm, the grain can be continuously accelerated and increased, which is comparable to a business without capital.

He made money, and Da Wu also made money, and only the world in which the demon world was injured was formed.

Thinking of this, he slowly sank to the bottom of the water.

Immediately, the entrance to the universe in his palm opened, and a huge vortex was at the bottom of the water, swallowing the lake water and silt crazily.

Gu Ke stood below the entrance, watching this scene, and was extremely satisfied.

Compared with digging stones or soil, it is undoubtedly too convenient to open a hole at the bottom of the lake.

Water is the mother of all things, and it is a must for human beings and creatures to survive. There is never too much water in the secret realm.

The mud at the bottom of the lake is a good fertilizer, and the stone is a suitable foundation.

What is not so popular are all kinds of messy bugs or unrecognizable creatures, but that doesn't matter.

With the world in his hands, everything is controlled by him. Not only does he simulate the water spirit ball to filter and sterilize, but he also extracts all the water from the substances entering the secret realm.

Unless these creatures are silicon-based and do not contain any water, they can only turn into powder and become the most basic nutrients in the secret realm.

Anyway, killing them only consumes a small amount of soul source, and they have their own soul source in their bodies.

Gu Ke, who can at least save six capitals after disinfecting them, can't do this kind of good thing all the time. There is a time limit for projecting out.

Although this time limit is greatly increased after leaving the novice period, it is only four hours at a time.

In order to improve efficiency, Gu Ke still did it himself.

The Wuji Battle Body that had not been used for a long time played a role, but it was not to harvest the lives of the spirit master and the demon god, but to bombard the bottom of the lake.

But the power of this bombardment was condensed to the extreme and was also controlled very accurately.

Without transmitting vibrations to the outside, a large area of ​​the lake bottom was blasted into powder, and then carried into the entrance of the secret realm by the water flow, and thrown into the palm of the universe like a mudslide. Gu Ke had no time to sort them out, but only piled them up in one place, forming a huge and rapidly expanding blue-black mud lake.

And outside, the biggest movement was the huge whirlpool and the slowly falling water level of the lake.

But this specially selected lake is extremely huge. With the throughput of the secret realm entrance, a few hours will not leave too obvious traces.

Ge doesn't care about this. Anyway, he will only dig here once, and he can dig in another place next time.

When the time limit is up, the projection automatically collapses, and the secret realm entrance is closed one step ahead of time.

The lake that Pi plundered frantically gradually returned to calm. Except for a large area of ​​the lake bottom that was dug hundreds of feet deeper, the rest seemed to be no different.

In the secret realm, Saranzhu, who had just received the notice, brought it over.

In the past few decades, she has been managing dozens of caves at any time, constantly maintaining and adjusting them to ensure their daily operation. In terms of terrain construction, she is absolutely daring to consider herself second, and the first is Gu Ke. This is for the sake of his face as the master of the house, not in specific affairs.

It's not that he can't do it that well, but there is no need for Saranzhu, who is comparable to a supercomputer, to quickly mobilize the existing construction templates and then make detailed adjustments.

To use an inappropriate metaphor, Gu Ge's work is like a painter painting, while Saranzhu is printing and copying.

Whether it is a cave or a secret realm, the first thing to do is to meet the operational requirements, and then modify the details to improve the comfort level within the necessary range.

Therefore, the infrastructure construction, which has the largest workload, is also the easiest for Saranzhu because she can "copy". Gu Ke, however, is like painting an oil painting that is almost like a photo according to a photo, which is extremely troublesome.
