Volume 1: Wild Beasts, Changes Begin Chapter 46: Warriors of Da Qi
Progress of starting a new journey: 25%...28%...37%...
The waves that had just been stirred up at the ferry gradually subsided, and Fang Yunhan frowned slightly.
25% was his accumulation from the previous seven days, and it increased to 28% after killing the red-eyed bird. The horse just now obviously also showed signs of mutation, so after killing it, it increased to 37%.
According to the experience Fang Yunhan has accumulated in the past few days , the amount of progress gained after killing a mutant creature is directly proportional to the strength of the mutant creature. The strength of this horse is approximately worth 9% of the progress.
Everything up to this point is normal, but what about this thief?
This thief was much stronger than horses and birds. His strength was almost comparable to the Four Dharma Kings of the Sun and Moon Sect. His ability to withstand blows, continue fighting, and escape was probably even stronger.
After killing him, there was no corresponding progress increase.
Doesn’t such a person count as “someone with special powers” as stated in the annotations of the martial arts character template?
Fang Yunhan stood by the river for about two quarters of an hour before people from Changluo Marquis's Mansion came over. Although there was a curfew, there were naturally no restrictions on finding the prince or catching thieves.
"Yunhan." Fang Pingbo came to Fang Yunhan, walked around him, looked at him carefully, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Why did you chase out alone... Oh, forget it, I know that the people in the mansion can't catch up with you, I'm glad you're okay."
During this period, one-sided battles between the prince and mutant creatures were often staged in Changluo Marquis's Mansion. Fang Pingbo also had a deep understanding of the current level of his son's martial arts.
But when I think about it, this thief was able to escape from Fang Yunhan and run all the way to the ferry. He must be no ordinary person.
There were already guards over there checking the bloody bodies of a man and a horse. Coincidentally, although Gu Yunfei died miserably, his face was still intact, and even the camouflage on his face was wiped off in the previous battle.
One of the guards recognized him and said, "This looks like the notorious thief Gu Yunfei who has a bounty of tens of thousands of taels of silver."
Another guard came over with the cloth bag that was originally hanging on the horse's back and said, "There are some banknotes, small change, medicine and prescriptions in it. Although it is soaked in blood, the words on it can still be clearly seen."
"Prescription?" Fang Pingbo said immediately, "This is probably a great prescription for healing injuries and strengthening the body. It's hard to find. Go and copy it down quickly."
"yes."
Two guards left first. People from the government office had also arrived. The leader of the guards went out to negotiate. The chief constable of Qingyu County saw Fang Pingbo from afar, exchanged a few words, and then directed his men to help deal with the bodies and bloodstains.
Fang Yunhan followed Fang Pingbo on the way back and said, "Father, you should have seen some traces of fighting in the garden. For example, what level would a warrior of this caliber be in Da Qi?"
In fact, when Fang Yunhan was a child and just learned to speak, he had a longing for this ancient world, wondering if there was any martial arts, so he asked Fang Pingbo. But he learned that this world did not have any internal force, true qi, and no real effective magic.
Although martial arts existed, they were merely for strengthening the muscles and bones, and one had to be at least eight years old to start practicing.
After hearing this, Fang Yunhan observed the guards in the mansion for a while and felt that the masters in this world were probably at the level of those in the Fist of Fury movie, so he stopped paying close attention.
When he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, he no longer had any desire to find an opportunity to learn some martial arts.
But now it seems that the judgment was wrong.
"A warrior." Fang Pingbo thought for a moment and said, "He can grind the high-quality stone bricks in our mansion into powder. This level can probably be considered first-rate. Among the tens of millions of people in Da Qi, there are probably less than 10,000 first-rate masters like him. He is really one in a million."
"Less than ten thousand?!" Fang Yunhan's mouth twitched.
In the Ming Xuande World, can you find a hundred masters at the level of the Four Dharma Kings? Here, there are less than ten thousand.
"Then, what kind of destructive power can be displayed by the strongest warrior?" Fang Yunhan asked again.
"The so-called strongest must be those warriors who have the title of Sea King." Speaking of this, Fang Pingbo's face seemed to become a little excited, and said, "Let me tell you a story. There was a warrior who won the title of Sea King eighty years ago. He once dug out a passage of more than seventy feet from a rocky mountain with his bare hands in one night."
More than seventy zhang, which is more than two hundred meters.
"This was the first time I heard about the Sea King when I was leading a fleet at sea. At that time, I felt like I was listening to a legend of a god or monster."
They have now returned to the city. Fang Pingbo patted a wall on the side of the road and said, "That's Black Forest Mountain. The rocks there are much harder than these walls. Humans are made of flesh and blood. How could they do such a thing?"
Fang Yunhan looked down at his hands. Even though his magical skills were extraordinary and his internal strength was endless, after practicing his skills, bricks and stones looked like rotten soil to him. However, he had never actually tried it, so he was a little unsure whether he could do such a thing as digging a mountain with his bare hands.
At this time, Fang Pingbo patted Fang Yunhan on the shoulder and suddenly smiled mysteriously: "But guess what happened next?"
Fang Yunhan said: "Hmm?"
Fang Pingbo sighed, "Later I learned that after winning this title, the Sea King had fought against other Sea Kings. As a result, he was defeated by six different Sea Kings in his lifetime. He never won a single battle of this level. Therefore, in some biographies, he is also called the 'weakest Sea King'."
"So there are so many strong people here?" Fang Yunhan was surprised and lowered his head slightly, but there was an inexplicable smile on his face, "Ha!"
"However, there are too few living Sea Kings today." Fang Pingbo said, "Although I didn't ask specifically, I have heard roughly that there are only five or six Sea Kings alive in the entire Da Qi."
Fang Yunhan looked up and could already see the gate of Changluo Marquis Mansion. He glanced around but didn't see Ziyun. He asked, "Then how do I get the title of Sea King?"
"Why are you asking this?" Fang Pingbo showed some worry on his face. After thinking it over, he said truthfully, "If you want to become the Sea King, you need to set up a 100-day arena in the capital and spread the news widely. It is equivalent to inviting all the martial artists in Da Qi to fight."
"During these 100 days, except for those who have already obtained the title of Sea King, you cannot refuse any challenge from anyone at any time. Only if you win all the challenges for 100 consecutive days can you obtain the title of Sea King. This title is recognized by the court and the public. Although it does not have any real power granted by the court, in terms of status, it can be equivalent to that of a king."
As if afraid that Fang Yunhan would do something stupid, Fang Pingbo added: "The Hundred Days Arena has exhausted many famous boxers to death. Even for a true Sea King, he definitely doesn't want to go through the hell again. It is said that some warriors who have the strength of a Sea King have never been able to truly obtain this title because they don't want to go through the Hundred Days Arena."
"Don't worry." Fang Yunhan smiled and said, "Where is Ziyun? I'll go see her."
"He's still in the corridor. He seems frightened and refuses to move." Fang Pingbo saw that he looked serious and felt a little relieved.
Things like the Hundred Days Arena are indeed very dangerous. If relatives and friends get to know the news, they will definitely be extremely worried.
Fang Yunhan would not be willing to let them live in fear for a hundred days, so he would not go to the capital to set up this arena for the time being.
