Chapter 175 Obsidian, the new steel bone nutrient
The holy city is very special. When living in it, you don’t have to worry about snake spirits becoming alienated or deformed.

All the inferior people in the entire Snake Spirit Continent, that is, normal humans who have not been blessed by the Snake God, are eager to live here and settle in the city.

However, due to geographical and resource constraints, the number of humans that can survive in the city is limited.

Over time, those who were unable to enter the city could only gather outside the holy city and wait for a place, gradually forming the market town we see today.

Where there are people, there are conflicts and divisions of interests.

The people in the holy city are also happy to have ordinary people serve them, helping with farming, hunting, harvesting, patrolling, etc.

Therefore, three major military corps appeared in this town.

Falcon, thorn, rock.

It sounds mighty and powerful, but in fact, it is an extension of the three major legions of the Holy City, the so-called reserve force.

Responsible for maintaining order in the market town and helping the Holy City deal with all peripheral matters.

There are many masters who have awakened their seeds of life. Some of them are unable to enter the city alone due to relatives and are willing to stay here. Some of them are sent by the Holy City itself to take charge of the overall situation.

"If you join the Corps and perform well, you will have the opportunity to obtain the Life Seed Awakening Method."

“Moreover, you can be exposed to more tasks and accumulate more contributions than ordinary people.”

"When the time comes, if there are indeed places to enter the city, the one with the higher contribution will have a greater chance of getting a place."

Wu Heng said with a smile, Chen Feng seemed to be thinking about something, and he probably understood the peculiarities of these three corps.

To put it in Earth's terms, there are some outsourced logistics teams similar to those in the Holy City, which are responsible for miscellaneous and tiring work and have average combat effectiveness.

Thinking of this, he looked up at the white-gray mountains and the holy city in the distance.

Shrouded in loneliness, isolated from everything.

But in fact, according to Wu Heng, this market town is already part of the holy city to a certain extent.

However, living here still carries the risk of being attacked by snake people or being alienated.

Immediately, no more questions were asked.

He followed Wu Heng and others and soon arrived at the center of the town, outside a large wooden building complex.

It is built with brown wooden pillars and entwined with dead trees and vines.

There is also a piece of cloth made of special material, which looks like animal skin stitching, draped on the top.

A row of pointed wooden pillars were inserted into the ground on the left and right, forming a wooden fence that extended backwards and enclosed a large space.

Wooden houses of varying sizes and animal-skin tents were interspersed among them, and two men wearing rattan armor were guarding the gate.

Without much delay, Wu Heng stepped forward and had a brief conversation with them, then quickly brought Chen Feng inside.

"This is the territory of our Thorn Corps. Basically everyone lives here."

"The big tent in the center is where the corps holds meetings. Lady Molly is now the captain of the Fourth Battalion of the Thorn Corps. She is discussing matters with other captains in there."

Wu Heng led Chen Feng to a wooden house, ordered people to clean up, and brought a glass of clean water.

"Sir, please rest here for a while. I will immediately inform Lady Molly and invite her over."

Chen Feng nodded and watched him leave.

He thought it would take some effort to find Molly, but unexpectedly everything went quite smoothly.

After waiting for a while, he also got some information from the other men in rattan armor.

The Thorn Corps and the Falcon Corps don't get along well, and other conflicts seem to have broken out recently.

"No wonder."

He had sensed some related discussions when he had entered the market town earlier, and also discovered that the group of wooden armored guards had some other grievances with Wu Heng and others.

All doubts were dispelled about eight or nine minutes later.

As the footsteps got closer, a curly-haired woman in a gray cloak and rattan armor finally appeared.

More than ten days have passed in this world, which is not too long.

But when Chen Feng looked up, his eyes moved slightly.

The visitor had yellowish skin, like the color of wheat, and bright brown eyes.

A silver iron sword hung diagonally on his waist, and a scimitar was placed across his back.

It looked similar to the last time they separated, but Chen Feng was able to see something with his perception.

Level three.

Judging from the aura alone, the woman in front of him named Molly has actually broken through to a level comparable to the true meaning of martial arts.

"Sir, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Without waiting for Chen Feng to think, the other party hurriedly walked up to him, smiled, and took the initiative to bow.

Then, he took out a small snakeskin bag containing a lot of coins.

With just one glance, Chen Feng recognized that these were the items he left behind when he left last time, without a single item missing.

"We left in a hurry last time and I forgot to bring your things."

"We finally meet today, and it can be considered as returning the item to its original owner."

"Thank you."

Chen Feng nodded and smiled, his pronunciation still a little awkward.

Although he didn't care about the coins, he still took them.

Molly smiled and said a few polite words before sitting down on a wooden chair at the adjacent table.

"If you hadn't helped me last time, I would have died at the hands of that Blade Luoduo."

"Please stay a little longer this time so that we can repay your kindness."

The tone was sincere, but Chen Feng just waved his hand gently, indicating that it was not necessary to worry about it.

Then, he looked around at Wu Heng and others, but he didn't say anything.

Molly understood what he meant and quickly dismissed the people around her.

"Do you have anything to tell me, sir?"

Molly asked curiously, but she was actually a little confused.

The last time they parted, she was at least at the peak of the second level, but she didn't even notice how the other party left.

There were too many things to think about at the time and I didn't have time to think about it carefully. Later, when I had some free time, I recalled the details of the past and found some clues.

Moreover, with the help of the corps commander, she has now broken through to the third level.

As a result, I still couldn't quite understand the state of my savior.

"I came here this time to ask you for something."

Without giving her too much chance to guess, Chen Feng spoke directly and looked into her eyes.

He knew that his appearance and departure were too sudden, and the other party might have some doubts about his identity.

But it doesn't matter, as long as he can complete the purpose of this trip.

"Just tell me what you want, sir. No matter what it is, as long as Molly can do it, I will definitely get it for you."

"it is good."

Chen Feng nodded and said straight to the point: "I want your method of awakening the seed of life."

Although Wu Heng mentioned that by joining the Corps and accumulating contributions, he would have a chance to obtain the awakening method, but he did not want to waste his precious dream time for this.

Not knowing what he was thinking, Molly was slightly startled and a little surprised.

How to awaken the seed of life?

The opponent is obviously stronger than me, so what's the point of using my awakening method?
She was puzzled and the suspicion in her mind gradually deepened.

Then, he hesitated for a moment.

She did not ask any more questions, but looked at him calmly and said, "Since you want the Life Seed Awakening Method, Molly will not refuse."

"It's just that I got this awakening method by chance, and there is no record of it."

"Please stay here for a while. I will organize and write it tonight and give it to you tomorrow at the latest."

"Okay." Chen Feng nodded.

He still has at least two days before he returns, so he can definitely wait.

As for whether the other party was lying and delaying, he felt that the possibility was small.

This is the keen intuition brought about by perception, and he is not without other means to seize it.

The matter was settled, but Molly remembered that she still didn't know the other party's name.

After some questioning, Chen Feng pondered for a moment.

"Just call me Feng Chen."

His name spelled backwards.

Firstly, thinking of the pursuit and conversation of the Snake Temple, he guessed that there might be more than one outsider, and calling him that would prevent him from being discovered by the people on Earth.

Secondly, the surnames in this world are relatively wild, and there are very few people with the surname Chen, so mentioning it would easily attract attention.

"I see. I'll remember that, Your Excellency Feng Chen."

Molly said with a smile, and Chen Feng took the opportunity to chat with her for a few more words.

The main thing is to find out if there is a treasure that can wake people up, or the existence of obsidian. "Repairing mental damage? I haven't heard of this kind of treasure. Maybe this kind of treasure only exists in the Holy City."

"As for Obsidian"

Molly thought about it and told the truth: "Some people do trade in the market town occasionally, but they all come from the Holy City."

"Most of them were made into weapons, or used to complete certain rituals."

Oh?
Made into a weapon?
Chen Feng became interested after hearing this.

"What kind of weapon are you making?" he asked curiously.

"Swords and sabers, such as the weapons of several regiment commanders, are made of obsidian. They are very strong and far superior to ordinary steel and copper."

Molly told the truth, and Chen Feng took note of it secretly.

After a few more words, he ended the conversation and pretended to take a rest.

"Then Molly excuses herself."

"No matter what you need, Lord Feng Chen, you can come to me at any time."

Chen Feng nodded and watched the other party leave.

Although the house is not big, it is clean and tidy.

Sitting in his original position, he glanced at the man in rattan armor guarding the door.

After a while, some ideas came to mind.

"Ms. Molly, please look at the Falcon Corps."

On the way out, listening to Wu Heng's careful questioning,
Molly shook her head.

"Don't worry."

"They were in the wrong in this matter. You did a good job."

Speaking calmly, Molly walked towards the center of the corps.

The previous discussion has not yet been concluded, so she has to continue to participate.

Besides that, she hadn't said anything else.

Lord Feng Chen is extremely powerful, and she had some profound intuition after meeting him today.

The other party's realm might not be lower than any corps commander. If the people of the Falcon Corps intend to hold on to this matter, they may not be able to bear the consequences.

Suddenly, Wu Heng stopped and knew what to do, so he didn't say anything else.

Molly walked into the meeting hall in the center of the corps, planning to wait for the corps commander to return from the Holy City and see if she could recommend Lord Feng Chen and recruit him to stay.

That night.

Night falls and the stars are shining.

Many torches were lit in the camp of the Thorn Legion, and a patrol team consisting of four or five young and strong men took turns on duty.

The flags on the roof fluttered gently in the breeze.

A black shadow flashed quietly, and with the vibration of blood wings, it quietly left the camp of the Thorn Legion.

"The stars in this world are brighter than those on Earth."

Looking up at the night sky, Chen Feng sighed.

The gap between technology and barbarism, the differences in the world are more than that.

Shaking his head, he didn't think about it any further.

The blood wings vibrated and flew through the air. Taking advantage of the cover of night, he headed straight for the camp where the Falcon Corps was located.

Weapons made of obsidian.

It can be used as nutrients for steel bones.

As for why they didn't "borrow" the weapon of the commander of the Thorn Legion, it was because they were thinking of Molly and the others, so as to avoid being exposed in the end and causing an ugly scene.

Suddenly, he hurried on his way.

The market town was unusually quiet at night, and the occasional patrollers were easily avoided by him.

Finally, a large campsite appeared before their eyes, with an eagle flag planted above the tent in the center.

The blue-black shell is the best skin for the night. Chen Feng magnified his perception, restrained his breath, and quietly spied around the wooden house and the tent.

Some of the wooden-armored guards were dozing off, while others were snoring on their wooden beds.

He took a detour to avoid the patrolmen holding torches, and soon, without looking for anything specifically, he discovered an obvious anomaly.

"Master Feishan, you are finally back."

"You don't know how arrogant the people from the Thorn Corps are. Today they directly injured my guards."

"This is totally disregarding our Falcon Corps."

The maximum range is three hundred meters, in a tent in the center of the camp.

Several figures can be seen amidst the muffled conversation.

The speaker was a thin man wearing black armor.

He looked to be in his thirties, with sparse hair, sunken eye sockets, and a sinister nose, like a black vulture.

Chen Feng could clearly hear him describing today's conflict in the market town, and he even added some exaggerations.

"My face doesn't matter, but I just can't hold it in, sir."

"Moli has only been here for a few days, and she dared to let her subordinates do this. If you wait a little longer, I'm afraid even you..."

"Even me?" The voice was low and a little cold.

Looking over, I saw the other person standing there with his arms outstretched.

Two young women in linen stood on either side, struggling to take off his jet-black iron armor and the heavy black broadsword.

He has a burly body of nearly two meters tall, with a dark yellow complexion.

The atmosphere became quiet and the complainant felt a little embarrassed, knowing that he had said something wrong.

"grown ups."

The Falcon Corps leader named Feishan ignored him and instead raised his hand to grab a young woman's chin and narrowed his eyes.

"I asked you to sign the contract. Have you done it?"

"Yes, it has been signed."

The young woman said tremblingly, and Feishan nodded.

With a satisfied look on his face, he finally let go and tilted his head to look at the vulture man with an embarrassed expression.

"That Molly has already reached the third level and is highly appreciated by that woman named Thorn."

"The situation in the Holy City is not peaceful either. Someone from the Serpent Temple died in the Green Swamp yesterday. Anyway, we should be more peaceful these days."

A word of warning, the vulture man dared not refute, but was also surprised and confused.

The noise yesterday was actually caused by people from the Snake Temple. How could they appear in this area?
And he's dead?
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."

Glancing at him coldly, the vulture man quickly lowered his head and suppressed his speculation.

"Oh, right. I remember that many of Molly's subordinates were very respectful to her?"

Fei Shan suddenly asked.

"Yes, my lord."

"Find a chance to kill him. His life seed hasn't even awakened, so it's a waste of resources if he's still alive."

"And the Earth Rock Corps, don't they like to watch the show?"

The vulture man understood what he meant, showed a look of delight and nodded.

The two young women had already become numb and could only pretend not to hear anything as they lay down on the wooden beds one after another.

Seeing this, the vulture man lowered his head and prepared to leave the tent.

But, next breath.

"Who?"

Fei Shan suddenly shouted coldly. The vulture man who had just walked out of the door felt his heart tighten. He felt a black shadow appear in front of his eyes in an instant.

His neck was pinched, he opened his eyes wide, and struggled desperately but was unable to resist.

The scarlet eyes under the blue-black horn did not look at him, but instead stared at the surprised corps commander behind him.

"I seem to know your secret?"

A harsh and low voice.

Fei Shan's face was gloomy. He never expected that he would be eavesdropped by outsiders and he was unaware of the whole process.

Just about to start, but...

But the other party suddenly raised his hand and made a throat-cutting gesture, then picked up the vulture's subordinate with one arm and walked away quickly.

There seemed to be the sound of wind, or perhaps a provocative and deliberate provocation.

After thinking for two seconds, Fei Shan immediately put on his jet-black iron armor, picked up his obsidian broadsword, and chased after him.
