Volume 3: The King of Waste Chapter 327: Ruins of the Sea
Previously, the Ghost Moon Mask had many enhanced abilities such as the Ruin Eye Hallucination, Super Dynamic Vision, and Perception Amplification.
The effects of these abilities are relatively weak compared to those of true two-state ability users and are considered "small abilities". However, with the first transformation after the weight reaches 6, all these abilities are integrated.
The new ability after the fusion is super-distance vision.
Hyper-vision includes hyper-dynamic vision, but loses its hallucinogenic ability and can amplify one's vision to the extreme extent.
As the weight increases later, the newly acquired abilities of the soldiers are gradually integrated into the super-distance vision, leaving no new abilities behind, but the strength of the super-distance vision continues to increase.
Now the weight is 12, and the super-distance vision brought by the mask allows Xu Shen to see the scene 10 miles away.
Even in reality, the view is not obstructed by buildings or fog.
And within 500 meters, one can see the internal structures of living organisms and soldiers, similar to X-ray vision.
This can reveal hidden diseases left in the enemy's body, as well as the real powerful moves.
If used in medical treatment, the effect will be even more outstanding.
The weight of 12 is also the limit of what the second state can accommodate. There is no doubt that if this mask is handed over to the second state, its combat power will definitely increase to a higher level!
Xu Shen discovered that after the Xubing's initial transformation, those small abilities and characteristics that were originally blended together would gradually merge into a core and become a separate ability.
The Queen Ant's scarlet cloak seems to be able to only refract, but its effect is powerful and its strength is comparable to that of a king!
The effect of this ultra-long-range vision is comparable to that of a powerful two-state perception system.
In addition to the mask, the ability attached to the black eyeball is the "Curse of Weakness".
Anyone looked at by the black eyeball will be cursed, and their conditions in all aspects will decline. They will become physically weak, mentally confused, and their combat power will drop by half. Unless they have the ability to counterattack, they will be in a state of constant weakness.
If the power of this eyeball were given to Ertai, the effect of a head-on confrontation would be stronger than that of the mask.
But because the weight of 13 exceeds the capacity of the two states, it can only be used by the king.
But for the king, this effect is much weaker.
The effect of the weakness curse is very obvious on the second state. The second state is like having full buffs such as kidney deficiency and constipation. His face looks ugly, he is covered in sweat, and his combat power plummets.
It’s a pity that the king doesn’t need to use the soldiers to deal with the two states.
However, the effect on the king is very general. Xu Shen used the minotaur as an experiment. The weakness curse seemed to be on the soldier itself, competing with the enemy's mental power, and finally got the result.
However, it is difficult for these soldiers to suppress the king's mental power, and the weakening effect they cause to the Minotaur is like slapping it twice, with no feeling at all.
The weakening effect is less than one-tenth.
When used on Ling Lu, it only barely weakened his combat power by one tenth.
Xu Shen felt regretful. If this weapon could draw the owner's mental power into the game, the effect would undoubtedly be much stronger.
But the Curse of Weakness is only a curse on the Xubing itself.
Perhaps when this weapon grows stronger, it will have a great suppressive effect on the king.
That piece of soft tissue with a weight of 14 has the ability to regenerate the body.
Xu Shen could achieve this ability with the help of Hai Jue, so he did not choose it.
Xu Shen also discovered that the soldiers with weights between 13 and 15 were neither high nor low.
The two states cannot be carried.
But for the king, the effect is rather average and can only be used as a makeshift measure.
Because legendary soldiers are too rare, most kings should use soldiers in this range.
It is no wonder that in the war between kings, it is rare to see other kings use their soldiers to fight. After all, the effect of soldiers of this level in the battle between kings is too ordinary and far inferior to their own combat power.
But once the weight reaches 16, it will undergo a second transformation and leap to the legendary level, and the effect will be extraordinary.
Now containing two Xu Bing, the weight of Xu Bing in Xu Shen's body reaches 25.
There was still a weight of 5 left, and Xu Shen did not choose to fill it to full capacity. After all, a weight of 5 Xu Bing had almost no improvement effect on him.
…
…
Time flies.
Guangming City is operating in an orderly manner. The establishment of a new order has brought many people-friendly policies. In just half a month, it has gained widespread support and the economies of all districts are recovering and growing.
During this period, Xu Shen received a lot of news from the inner city.
They are all small forces in the inner city who want to propose trade routes to Guangming City and transport goods here for sale.
When Xu Shen dismantled the Snow Palace, he also recruited all of the Queen Ant's ministers. Those who were unwilling to surrender had their memories read by Xia Tong, and then were sent to sleep.
Through these officials, Xu Shen understood how the original Termite City operated. These small forces were originally not qualified to enter the bottom city. They were all blocked by the Queen Ant. The reason was very simple.
These small forces treat the city of Nadi as pigs to be slaughtered.
Things that are extremely cheap in the inner city are labeled as such and then sold at sky-high prices in the lower city, and then put into shopping malls to become luxury brands.
The Queen Ant blocked most of the small forces and only left a few larger forces to cooperate. After all, Termite City also needs trade and economy. The Bottom City has no shortage of labor and productivity, especially the Fog People, who are willing to have children. As long as they are given some small fertility benefits, they can immediately give birth in large quantities.
But Dicheng lacks technical personnel.
And these core things are often controlled by forces and groups in the inner city.
Even the queen ant needs financial transactions and people to do things for her.
If you want elite personnel to do things, you must make the base city prosperous.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to pick out any tall people from a group of refugees.
The Inner City Groups that Xu Shen had regular cooperation with were the luxury brands that he had heard of since he was a child. Just by hearing the name, he knew that they were things he could not afford.
However, the factory price of these things is extremely low. Just because they come from the inner city, they are sought after by a large number of wealthy children and become the hot cakes in the outer city.
Only after becoming the city lord did Xu Shen realize that being a city lord is not easy.
There are so many things to take care of, big and small. Even if you throw some things to your subordinates, they will still ask their superiors for instructions in the end for fear of being blamed.
No wonder the queen ant splits herself into three bodies.
Thinking of the queen ant, Xu Shen no longer had the heart to deal with these government affairs. After thinking about it, Xu Shen asked Xia Tong to modify the memory of a government official, and then handed these matters over to this government official to handle.
He promoted the other party to the position of prime minister of the cabinet, a high position in the government, and let Lou Haiyin be his assistant to accompany and monitor him, and most importantly to learn from him, and have him convey Xu Shen's orders.
This is just for dealing with daily chores at the moment. After all, Xu Shen has already completed the framework and adjustments of the entire city.
When he has time, he will personally search the government bulletins and review them again if there are any problems.
Putting city affairs aside, Xu Shen summoned Chen Han and asked him about the wanted situation.
“I haven’t found it yet.”
Chen Han was still trembling in front of Xu Shen, submissive and nervous: "I have issued a city-wide wanted notice and ordered people to search every alley, but still can't find him. City Lord, please give me a little more time."
"Don't let me down." Xu Shen said coldly.
Chen Han's expression changed slightly, and he lowered his head even lower: "I will definitely live up to the city lord's expectations."
I have already let him down... Xu Shen said nothing and asked the other party to leave.
The wanted person is Nasophane.
When the Snow Palace was demolished, the other party also disappeared.
Xu Shen had long realized that the other party's status was not simple. He should be the person who knew the most information about the Queen Ant and the person the Queen Ant trusted the most, even surpassing the secret guards.
Through Xia Tong, Xu Shen didn't find any useful information in the minds of those secret guards.
Apparently, the queen ant only regards these secret guards as brick walls.
The brick wall only needs to do a good job of care, why does it need to know the secrets of the owner's house?
But Nasefani might be different.
Xu Shen wanted to find the queen ant from the "past", and Nasefani was an excellent way, but she mysteriously disappeared.
"I will be back in half a month..."
Xu Shen tapped his fingers slightly. He had to prepare for some things in advance.
From the information about Xuhai obtained from the green-haired woman and Xia Tong, Xu Shen understood why it would take at least three months to travel back and forth to Xuhai.
The Xu Sea is a world independent of the fourth level Xu Realm.
It is unclear whether the Xu Sea is a deeper Xu Realm, but because there are countless Xu and shells living there, it is called the Xu Sea.
Even a king would be in danger of falling if he entered.
To enter the Xuhai, one needs to pass through a specific Xuhai crack.
The Xuhai rift is a passage for travel. The process of entering is very short, but this short process is about 45 days in the outside world.
Even if you just enter and then turn around and go back, it will take 90 days to go back and forth.
This time is just the time for traveling through the channel.
The time spent on activities within the Sea of Ruins is similar to the reality outside, but it is only slightly faster than reality and can be ignored in the short term.
As for the long term... no one can stay in Xuhai for a long time.
After all, it's too dangerous there.
The green-haired woman had memories of exploring the Ruins Sea and was nearly surrounded by Ruins Beasts, and there were several A-level Ruins.
Outside, A-level beasts are all lord-level beings, acting alone and having a strong sense of territory. But in the sea of beasts, because the beasts are too dense, you may even encounter several A-level beasts acting in groups.
Moreover, it is easy to enter the Xuhai, just find the crack in the Xuhai, but it is difficult to exit.
You must find a shell in the sea of ruins in order to sink and exit the sea of ruins.
The exit point of the Ruins Sea is different from the crack of the Ruins Sea where you entered. You will appear at any place and land vertically in the reality under the Ruins Sea.
In other words, the location where the queen ant will return cannot be predicted.
Unless, there is some special ability that can predict it in advance.
"I don't know where to return, but the queen ant herself definitely knows!"
Xu Shen's eyes flickered slightly: "After returning, she will definitely reunite with the queen ant who escaped earlier. Although this queen ant is a fake reflected from the future, it has merged with the 'present body' queen ant and belongs to the 'present body' in this time and space. The present body will transmit the memory to the returning future body, so that the future body will know the cause and effect..."
