Volume 5: The Ancient Glorious Empire Chapter 43: The Torch Enters the Mythical Age
"Another legend has been promoted."
Inside the Xinhuo Academy, there are towering mountains, shrouded in clouds and mist, and a figure is hurriedly flying among them.
In a place of retreat, Dean Fang, who had just finished a round of practice, opened the panel and looked at the prompt message marked in gold. He smiled with satisfaction like an old father.
At this moment, the external situation is quite serious, but precisely because of this, self-improvement is urgent.
Disaster relief is necessary.
Upgrade to upgrade.
We have to do both.
This is not much of a conflict.
Before the mysterious system is promoted to a myth, it is useless to practice hard alone. It focuses more on "experience".
Experience can hone one's skills, break through bottlenecks, strengthen one's will, and accumulate crucial mysterious value.
On the contrary, after being promoted to a myth, a lot of time is needed to engrave abilities and condense divinity factors. This is why the six-perception masters are active in the secular world and have made a great reputation, while the whereabouts of myths are hard to find.
While disaster relief and upgrading are taking place, enrollment is also ongoing uninterruptedly.
Not much impact.
A new round of expansion has begun within the college.
Dean Fang installed more training buildings and planned many new residential areas, training areas, and retreat sites.
Especially in the retreat area, he added a lot of high-level secret rituals to ensure that the core students who were undergoing advancement and breakthrough would not be disturbed by each other's energy.
"Although the situation is urgent, everything is still proceeding in an orderly manner."
Just as he expected, using the academy as a medium to recruit formal personnel and train them to the level of Seven Awakenings Mythology would be difficult at the beginning.
The initial enrollment and mid-term student assessment and screening took up a lot of time.
In the past few months, Xinhuo Academy has failed to cultivate even one non-staff legend, which seems to have wasted a lot of time and resources.
But now, the time has come, and the number of people promoted to core students has begun to increase exponentially. Similarly, more and more core students have broken through the barriers and become promoted to myths, achieving the sublimation of life.
The most exaggerated time was when two or three core students were promoted on the same day.
This is quite an incredible record.
However, no one in the outside world knew about this "miracle"; within the academy, most students only had some guesses, but their imaginations were still conservative.
Only the newly promoted legends and the core students who failed to break through understood what a miracle this was.
More miraculous than miracles!
Praise the dean!
But at the same time, they also felt a sense of urgency. They originally thought that they would be the top figures after being promoted to Shenhua, but when they looked at the Shenhua walking all over the streets in their own academy, they found that if they slacked off, Shenhua would be left behind by the team.
This is completely different from their inherent impression that "life will be easy once you become a myth."
However, this inherent impression comes from the words of their family's ancestors.
In countries like Chisha/Yuntu, promotion to myth is indeed easy and enjoyable, but not in Xinhuo Academy.
Because the college is very competitive.
Because they are still eager to go further.
Because the world is still waiting for them.
…
The Seven Awakenings Myth of the Xinhuo Organization has entered a blowout phase.
From the beginning, there were more than ten people, then more than twenty, more than thirty, more than forty...
In the month since the Golden Knight was promoted, the academy has signed contracts with more than 100 core students, and 41 of them have been successfully promoted.
Nowadays, the number of Seven Awakening Myths residing in the academy has exceeded half a hundred!
Half a hundred!
Even though most of them are just newly-promoted myths, it is still a very powerful force, no, it should be said to be a terrifying force.
Moreover, once these new myths learn epic body-building and visualization methods, and then upgrade their skills with training cards, they will soon possess power that is not inferior to, or even exceeds, that of ordinary myths.
The best among them are worthy of being called genius legends.
Even though he is an acquired genius.
Just like Xu Yun, with this little girl's accumulation, as long as she enters the realm of mythology, she will immediately possess impressive combat power.
Many of the “old guys” in the organization are in the same situation.
In the academy, these talents are the strongest among the core students. A few of them have the power to rival and defeat myths with their mortal bodies!
They are not necessarily weaker than Xing Jinglei and Yi Luoxi who were of the same level back then.
After all, times have changed, and the Xinhuo organization has been updated with an extremely luxurious skill library that can provide enough inheritance for capable talents.
However, no matter how strong Xinhuo Laoliujue is, he must meet basic conditions if he wants to become a legend.
——A mysterious accumulation of 1000W.
In the absence of large-scale evil sieges, a potential and sufficiently diligent student, starting from scratch, would need at least three years to reach the "peak of the six awakenings" and attempt a mythical awakening.
How many years has the Xinhuo organization been around?
There are many old members of the Six Senses organization who have not yet accumulated enough Mystery. There are also many people who have accumulated 10 million Mystery but failed to reach the Myth level.
Failure is the norm!
No matter how solid their foundation is, no matter how powerful they are, their awakening pass rate is only about 40% at best. With the same foundation, their breakthrough is slightly more difficult than that of the Apostles of Destiny.
But once they fail, the mystery of 500W will disappear, and the old six will have to huff and puff to transform into ghost hunters.
They may have to work hard for another year or two before they are qualified to challenge the mythical realm again.
In comparison, these core students, who are slightly weaker than the members of the old organization, have a great advantage in mysterious accumulation.
Even if they failed once, or twice, they would still have enough mysteries to launch a third attack.
This is also the reason why Fang You founded Xinhuo College.
——Mass cultivation myth!
"In a short period of time, we can cultivate dozens or even hundreds of legends, greatly improving the strength of the organization. This is undoubtedly a huge profit."
"But Master, we are running out of money."
On the panel, the poster girl Xiao Huan looked at the bill, covering her chest with her hands, her eyes dizzy.
“I’m really running out of money!”
Resource statistics have always been done by Xiaohuan. She can integrate and dispatch materials and crystals from various areas in the most efficient way.
Mr. Fang is only responsible for spending money.
He took a quick look, then glanced at the records a few more times, and discovered that the organization was indeed running out of money, and that the consumption of high-level materials during this period was in the billions.
This is inevitable.
To be promoted to 41st Myth in more than a month would inevitably be accompanied by a huge amount of material consumption. This is because "Guided Awakening" is more economical, and the consumption is two to three times lower than the Myth Awakening in the outside world.
But at the same time, most of these 41 myths did not advance in one attempt. They may have undergone myth awakening two or three times.
Core trainees who have not yet been promoted may have failed once or twice.
These are all consumption.
He didn't feel it when he was spending the money, but when Xiao Huan put the expense list in front of him, Fang You couldn't help but feel a pang of pain.
"So Master, please be more careful with your money in the future! We have saved up this fortune with great difficulty..."
"Don't worry, don't worry."
The money spent was a bit too much, but if it happened again, Fang You would still spend the same amount.
The money did not disappear, but was transformed into more valuable combat power and remained in the organization.
The awakening guidance he provided to the core students was not free.
How can it be free?
Wouldn’t it be unfair to the organization’s seniors and not conducive to the healthy operation of the organization?
The "contribution points/credits" required to apply for guidance and awakening have a conversion value of approximately 1.5 times the material cost.
Most of the Sixth Sense students cannot afford this price.
At first glance, they are titled "Six Awakenings" and "Top Six Awakenings", and each of them is a well-known strong man. However, no matter how strong they are, they are still just workers, and their wealth is far less than that of the "Rose Dean" and "First Tower Master" who are landlords.
Even Dean Rose and the First Tower Master only have very ordinary sixth senses.
This is the gap between landlords and workers.
"On the other hand, the reason why the awakened ones who came from common people were able to step into the top ranks of the Six Awakenings was because they spent a lot of wealth on themselves. They emptied their own pockets, spent huge amounts of money, and found connections to enter the inheritance places opened to the public by the seven major countries."
All the money was earned by the seven major countries!
Teacher Fang was very angry.
Xiao Huan became even more angry and made another note of the seven major countries in his little notebook.
Among the core students, only a few can pay the full amount and provide their own materials.
The rest of the people used the interest-free loan provided by the organization. This amount can only be used for myth awakening.
When they were still at the sixth awakening stage, this amount of contribution points was undoubtedly a huge sum of money. They worked tirelessly to complete tasks, and it would take at least half a year to accumulate enough contribution points for a myth awakening.
But if they were promoted to mythical status, ventured into some dangerous places, and picked up six or seven or eight pieces of legendary materials, they would be able to pay off the loan.
Very easy.
This is still in the process of collecting materials, and part of it will be used to pay for the scanning consumption of the "Exploration Radar".
so,
He looked at Xiao Huan and said, "Don't worry, you will be able to count money every day after a while."
Xiao Huan stared at him with a slightly suspicious look.
Fang You thought for a moment and said, "But right now, funds are tight, so we need to issue more exploration and collection missions to these new myths."
"I'll leave this job to you."
Disaster relief missions were also carried out simultaneously.
However, apart from purifying the river, most of the time there is no need for myths to take action. The Black River disaster is more bizarre and difficult to deal with, but it does not bring very direct evil harm.
The tasks Fang You set for this group of new legends were: working and practicing.
The purpose of cultivation is to allow them to cross the stage of newly promoted myths as quickly as possible and possess regular myth-level combat power.
Of course, the purpose of working is to fill in the material gaps as quickly as possible, as there are still dozens of people waiting to advance to the myth level.
The birth of a large number of Seven Awakening Myths is of great significance. It not only means that the comprehensive combat power of Xinhuo has been greatly improved, but also that more strategic layouts can be made. At the same time, each of the Seven Awakening Myths is a potential all-round worker.
Letting them go out treasure hunting is just the simplest way to use it.
Fang You also plans to arrange for some willing new myths to study in the fields of pharmaceuticals and forging.
It takes a long time to train an awakener into a high-end professional. But if the person being trained is a myth, this time can be shortened by dozens or even hundreds of times!
It is too extravagant to just let Shenhua change his major to forging and medicine making.
Fang You felt it was just right.
What they lack is high-end talents. If a myth is cultivated and equipped with incarnation skills, one person can replace several people.
Thinking about this, Fang You walked to the memorial tablet.
The ancient square stele is engraved with names that are both familiar and unfamiliar, and is filled with an indescribable charm.
The square monument is an important area of the college, and students passing by sometimes stop here for a moment.
From his perspective, milky white balls of light flew in from all over the college and landed on the memorial tablet like young swallows returning to their nests.
This is the power of faith.
Faith is not just a person or a god, but also an idea.
When ideas of faith resonate, they are gathered together on memorial tablets and stored here.
At first, there were not many such light balls of faith, but as time went by, they were increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye. During this period, one myth after another was promoted, bringing stronger and purer light balls of faith.
In the distance, a ball of light that was at least ten times larger than the previous one, with a golden glow in the white, was extremely dazzling and was flying towards them like a trend.
It slowly slowed down as it approached, and finally landed gently on the memorial tablet.
Fang You walked closer and could feel the warm power from it.
Yun Ji prayed for more than a month, and the power of faith generated burned like firewood, allowing Fang You to have the power to temporarily suppress the Eight Awakening Demigods.
The power of faith accumulated here is a hundred times greater than before.
And it’s just the beginning.
…
Just when the legend of the Xinhuo organization was erupting, the Zhonggui world was always in a place shrouded by a blood moon.
Qianmian, who goes by the alias "Qianyu", was following the Bloody Emperor and walking out of a hall filled with a thick bloody light.
"You performed well and did not bring shame to this emperor."
A burly middle-aged man wearing blood-red armor and with a single horn on his head opened his mouth, and his voice caused waves of blood to surge around him.
Qianmian has gotten used to it.
He had been lurking in the Blood Moon camp for quite some time. At first, he was troubled by how to get into a more important position in the camp. Only by being in a high position could he obtain high-value intelligence.
And myths are not uncommon in the huge Blood Moon camp.
What's more, he is just a rising legend.
But soon, Qianmian found that he was worrying too much.
His "position" may not be high, but his "superior", the Bloody Emperor, is of a higher rank than one might imagine.
This bloody emperor has a backer!
The backer is the follower of the Scarlet Moon, the Lord of the Blood Lake, a high-ranking being in the ninth realm!
In the Blood Moon camp, from the ninth level to ordinary minions, all are absolutely loyal and have faith in the great Scarlet Moon, but there is not harmony within the camp.
It would be better to say that there are numerous factions and constant struggles, and the entire camp is in chaos!
The myths that were promoted by gaining the power of the Scarlet Moon were not normal people, not human beings.
They would fight each other if they had a disagreement, and it was normal for them to fight to the death.
But the strange thing is that they clearly wanted each other's lives the moment before, but the next moment, they could carry out the oracle's mission without any interruption and devote everything to the great Mother Goddess.
Crazy and orderly.
Chaotic yet unified.
This is what Qianmian saw and heard in the Red Moon camp.
The Bloody Emperor who was walking in front said, "A new era is coming. We must welcome the awakening of the Supreme Mother Goddess with the most bloody attitude."
"My Lord, what should we do?"
The Blood Emperor's burly body turned slowly, with bloody waves as his background, constantly surging, with bursts of wailing sounds coming from within.
He lowered his head and looked down at Qianmian, blood flowing under his mask.
After a while, he nodded with satisfaction and said, "We need to offer more food to welcome the Mother Goddess before the other evil gods wake up."
"Food is all the living things in this strange world, and each of them is an oasis full of vitality."
"This is the meaning of the existence of those humans and creatures from the strange world."
When the evil god begins to awaken, using rituals that match his instincts and using humans as nourishment can accelerate the process of his awakening.
Qianmian pondered secretly and knelt on one knee.
Ripples appeared in the deepest part of his eyes, which were as calm as dead water.
…
The Luofeng domain and the surrounding domains.
Thanks to the unremitting efforts of Xinhuo Academy, the human side has greatly curbed the disaster of the living dead.
At first it was just a stalemate, but later, after Xinhuo Academy cultivated plants with powerful purifying power, humans gradually gained the upper hand in the fight against the disaster.
Frost Leaf City, Water Federation, and the Seven Major Countries all placed large orders for purification plants.
This greatly alleviated the economic pressure on the Xinhuo organization during the myth-making blowout phase.
It's a win-win situation.
The disasters were suppressed, funds were earned, and the future became brighter.
The seven major countries, which had suffered heavy losses, all breathed a sigh of relief.
But after just a few days of relief, they were shocked to find that the river...
It’s completely dark!
