Astral Apostle

The bright moon hangs high, and the evening breeze blows.

In twos and threes, the students took a walk after dinner, and there were also couples chatting with each other, creating a free and leisurely atmosphere.

Zhou Jing was not in the mood to integrate into it now, hurried back to the dormitory, closed the door, and couldn't wait to reopen the panel, his eyes were full of excitement.

It has been more than half a year since the alien world was disconnected, and the main world made him wait.

Now that it is finally connected to the new astral plane, it is possible to travel through the astral world again.

"The astral rendezvous period identified by the Exploration Bureau is still a month and a half away, but my panel has entered the rendezvous period ahead of time, proving that the plane gravitational threshold required for the panel to start the astral shuttle is better than the shuttle device in the main world, I can Start the shuttle earlier than the explorer, and you won't be disturbed for a while..."

Zhou Jing was overjoyed in his heart. Although he had already guessed about this, he was still happy to see that the judgment came true at this time.

Although the guideline of explorers is not to interfere with the development of civilization in one plane, the idea is good.

However, after seeing and hearing about the world of alien beasts, Zhou Jing does not have too high expectations for the degree to which explorers implement this code.

As long as the explorer enters the plane, he has to be cautious about his actions, and his psychological feelings are completely different. And if you travel in advance, you can obviously have a period of undisturbed and stable activities. No matter what you do, you can take the lead.

Of course, now that I have decided to join the Exploration Bureau in the future, the explorers are not considered enemies... I just walk the world as an astral apostle.

'But it's too early to think about it now, it really happened, let's do it again. ’

Zhou Jing sat cross-legged on the bed and pondered to himself.

This time, unlike the first shuttle, I was confused about the astral plane that I was about to enter.

He had already obtained the basic information from Shen Xinqin's explorer science course for the new star plane of this meeting.

This time, the Exploration Bureau named it "Plane D19". The name in this format is a temporary code name, which means that the main world has not yet determined an official name for this plane.

Named after a code name, it usually means that the civilization of this plane has many similarities with other planes. The main world has not yet unearthed the iconic characteristics of this plane civilization.

And this plane belongs to the "low value plane" judged by the main world.

Like the "Alien Beast Civilization Plane", no matter how the regime evolves, the alien beast is the biggest feature. The technology tree of civilization has been associated with the alien beast, so the Exploration Bureau is named after this.

The "D19 plane" does not have this feature.

This is an ancient world, in the stage of mature agricultural civilization. The political form is dominated by feudal dynasties, and there are multiple national regimes. Although the civilization level is higher than the alien civilization, it is not extraordinary.

There are more than one planes in a similar situation. Even if the names of countries, regimes, and cultures are different, with historical changes, regimes will also change, which is not suitable for naming, so it is usually called by code name, and it is not changed until the characteristics are discovered.

——This is the case for most planes. After many times of intersection and exploration, they have an official name. This is a normal phenomenon.

It is worth mentioning that many countries and civilizations in many planes have similar cultural forms. This has always been one of the key projects studied by the Exploration Bureau. It is believed that there are certain unknown factors that cause different planes to appear. similar cultural forms.

Therefore, the Bureau of Exploration established the criterion of "Planar Culture Lineage", taking the historical and cultural forms of the main world countries as the coordinates to locate the similar cultural forms of each plane country... For example, those close to the Chidu Republic have the "Aurora Culture" ", "Zhuhua Culture" and so on.

And the mainstream country of "D19 plane", according to the positioning of the plane's cultural pedigree, is close to the cultural form of the Chidu Republic.

According to the data, the main world has only met with the "D19 plane" once, and no extraordinary power has been found. Only some mortal martial arts are circulated in the military and occasionally appear in the people.

Ordinary people can get fit and agile after practicing, but there are signs of "suspected martial arts budding", which is not extraordinary. In the main world rating, it is not even a "low martial plane".

...However, this is the data from the last exchange.

Now that the main world and the "D19 plane" meet for the second time, time has passed, I don't know how much time has passed, and no one knows what it will evolve into. This is the information that explorers need to inquire.

"Even if the times change and the regime changes, the geography and history of this world will not change easily. This is my intelligence advantage."

Zhou Jing was satisfied, this was the benefit brought by the explorer's science course, although he only talked about it, it also gave him enough knowledge about the new star world he was about to enter.

Past information shows that the extraordinary power of the new star world is not obvious, so he is not too surprised. After all, there are too many planes that the main world has intersected, and not every world has extraordinary power.

Although it may not be possible to obtain a new transcendent system from the new star realm this time, as long as the astral apostle can be put in, the practice acceleration can be started, and it can be used to cultivate the martial arts system method that oneself obtained from the main world.

As long as it has this effect, it is not a loss. This is Zhou Jing's main demand at present.

——Besides, the "D19 plane" has evolved for many years, and it may not have given birth to an extraordinary system, and then we will find out if we explore it again.

"However, the biggest problem now is that my two apostle slots are all used up, so I can't open a new apostle..."

Zhou Jing looked at the information on the panel and had a bit of a toothache.

The maximum number of Apostle slots is the number of Eternal Apostles + 1, and he now only has two Apostle slots.

And these two slots, occupied by Jason and Bill respectively, were thrown into the disconnected alien world to place actions... Unless one was killed, there was no way to create a new astral apostle.

But these two people are really fucking capable of living, and they are still holding on!

According to the introduction of the popular science course, after the astral plane is disconnected, the flow of time will change, which may become faster or slower.

Since the two apostles have not died, it means that the time flow of the alien world should not have become too fast.

The only thing Zhou Jing can operate at the moment is to consume the chance of rebirth of the Eternal Apostle to recover Jason.

As for Bill, this rambunctious thing, he hasn't been transformed into an eternal apostle, he can only wait for him to die suddenly, and Zhou Jing can't do anything about it.

"Do you really want to recycle Jason? It feels a bit of a loss..."

Zhou Jing scratched his head.

The Eternal Apostle does not have an upper limit on income, and it can be earned for as long as it is placed, but it is definitely not as good as the prospect of exploring the new star world.

Therefore, the apostle slot must be vacated, which is certain.

However, compared to actively recycling Jason, Bill's sudden death is more profitable.

After all, Bill has not yet "cleared the customs", and there is an upper limit on the placement income. After reaching the upper limit, the longer it is placed, the more resources will be wasted.

Moreover, with Bill's witchcraft aptitude, he can unlock "Spirit of the Wind" to the third floor at most, and no matter how hard he trains, he can't break through the limit of talent. This is the limit of his growth.

If you place Bill for a long time, you can brush the evaluation of "clearance settlement", but it is not suitable to occupy this apostle slot all the time.

Therefore, Zhou Jing didn't want Bill to continue to live at all at this time, and only hoped that he would die soon.

"Oh, Bill, what are you doing, when are you going to die..."

Zhou Jing shook his head helplessly.

...

Alien world.

Terran calendar, forty-eight years.

Since the independence of each tribe a few years ago, the imperial family has been confronted with enemies on several expeditions, and the crusade has been fruitless. The huge Terra Empire seems to have collapsed overnight.

The various tribes divided their territories, and the originally unified territory of the empire was split into more than a dozen distinct tribal autonomous territories.

The Terra Empire was not destroyed, and the royal family retreated to Tarn City and several surrounding cities, silently licking the wounds.

For some reason, the other tribes did not pursue further, acquiescing to the current power structure and resting on their own.

The fighting ceased, as if everything had returned to peace.

But everyone with a discerning eye knows that this is only a temporary peace, the royal family will not let it go, and the various tribes that once watched and helped each other seem to have a different mind, and their attitude towards the covenant has become ambiguous.

In addition, after several years of implementation, there is a mild abnormal blood potion improved by Master Bill, which has basically replaced the original version and become the mainstream abnormal blood potion.

Although the strengthening effect is weak, the number of alien blood warriors has surged.

However, due to the limitation of the workshop output, the mild and abnormal blood medicine is given priority to supply the army. All the tribes have focused on strengthening their military power, and the royal family is no exception. They have no time to train civilian hunters. They are madly on the road of the arms race, and they dare not stop at all.

In the past few years, the real use of alien blood medicine for the people is far less than before. Due to the rampant chaos of alien beasts and serious damage to hunters, the industry of alien beast hunters has not only not grown, but has become much depressed.

In the war that lasted for several years, villages and towns all over the country built docks to resist the harassment of troops and the invasion of alien beasts, but many villages still died, a large number of villagers moved to towns, and there were fewer and fewer villages in the wilderness.

A large number of fields were deserted and uncultivated, resulting in food shortages year by year, and famine swept across the country.

The tribes had to imitate the imperial system, recruiting hunters to maintain territorial security and ensure agricultural production, but the situation did not improve much, and poverty and hunger were rampant.

Due to the changes in the world in recent years, people's views on Bill have also become complicated.

Bill developed a new type of different blood medicine, and his achievements cannot be concealed. He is a well-deserved master of medicine, but he became the fuse of civil unrest because of his betrayal of the royal family.

Many people do not know the inside story, and they can only throw the blame for ruining their stable life to Bill, which makes his reputation among the people mixed.

However, after Bill's defection, it seemed that the world had evaporated, there was no news, and no one knew where he went.

And the different blood medicine of the royal family and various tribes in the past few years, there is no sign of any improvement.

After analyzing all kinds of signs, many people think that Bill is mostly dead, and they don't know whether to regret or be happy.

...

Somewhere in the wild valley, a large camp is located here, and people come and go.

This is Roman's secret residence.

In the center of the camp is a conspicuous felt tent, surrounded by heavy guards, and no strangers are allowed to approach. It seems to be protecting and guarding.

Roman dragged his fat body, paced to the tent, and asked the guards with his eyes.

The guard stepped forward and whispered:

"My lord, he didn't even want to go out today."

"Um."

Roman nodded, motioned for the guards to go away, and then opened the curtain and walked into the tent.

What jumped into view was a complete set of medicine preparation table, and a figure who was preparing medicine, it was Bill.

Bill's movements were extremely skilled, but Roman couldn't be happy when he saw it.

In the past few years, Bill has not developed any new medicines, but has only prepared medicines according to the existing formula day after day. Although the quality of the finished products is excellent, this is not what Roman wants.

Nowadays, new types of alien blood potions are spreading all over the world, and there are more and more pharmacists who are skilled in formulas. Roman does not lack a maker who follows the script. , but so far Bill has not had any new results.

Moreover, Bill has become more and more taciturn in recent years, and he has little communication with him. Roman still remembers Bill's enthusiasm and talkativeness at the beginning, but the changes are quite abnormal now.

In addition, Bill also served as a staff member, but he has not made any strategic suggestions over the years, and even though the supervision has gradually become stricter, he has not responded.

Roman was really unsure of Bill's thoughts. After a few years, he was quite wary, and the relationship had undergone subtle changes.

However, everyone was still in a cooperative relationship, and he didn't mean to turn his face. He still let Bill lead the pharmaceutical development work, and he still had hope.

With all kinds of thoughts running through his mind, Roman forced a smile and said:

"Any progress today?"

"no."

Bill didn't look back, his tone was unwavering.

"Okay...how's your witchcraft going?"

"General." Bill cherished his words like gold.

Roman waited for a while, and seeing that Bill didn't want to continue to pull down the family, he had to cough and talk about business:

"I'm leaving for a few days, and Ma Ke will temporarily issue orders on my behalf to let you know."

"You can go in peace." Bill replied casually.

It doesn't sound like a good word...

Roman was helpless, turned around and left, beckoning the guards to come over and continue to guard the place.

He paced back to the main tent on the other side, summoned his confidant Ma Ke, and instructed:

"I'm going out this time to negotiate with some tribes. You have to manage the camp well, close the valley, and bury the traces."

Marco nodded.

Roman thought of something, his eyes flashed, and he said solemnly: "Also, show me Bill, if he has any changes, take it down immediately."

Ma Ke puzzled: "Sir, Bill has always been very quiet, are you too wary of him?"

"He is indeed very calm. In recent years, he seems to be a person who has no desires, but this is probably his disguise to confuse and paralyze me. I can't see what he is thinking at all. "

Roman frowned.

The reason why he was so wary was that Bill was also a wizard, and it was the sorcery he taught himself that he didn't tell anyone.

With this extraordinary power, he didn't believe that Bill would be content with the status quo and would definitely pursue something.

At the beginning, Bill dared to risk his betrayal of the royal family in order to be free, but he has stayed in the camp for the past few years. This kind of performance makes Bill look like a dormant lone wolf.

With this in mind, UU reading www. uukanshu.com A cold light flashed in Roman's eyes, and he said:

"If Bill tries to escape, you can mobilize the guards to kill him!"

Ma Ke was startled, but when he saw the cold look in Roman's eyes, he couldn't help nodding: "I understand, don't worry!"

Roman nodded, and then called in other henchmen to assign tasks.

After setting everything up, Roman took a group of people and went out to leave.

...

The mountains are foggy, humid and cold.

The day is gone, and the night hangs high.

This valley was shrouded in darkness. Except for the sentry, everyone in the camp returned to the camp to rest. There was no light shining through, and it was unusually quiet.

Meanwhile, in the woods outside the valley

An unknown number of men in black are slowly surrounding the camp, silently.
