Chapter 81 Ten Thousand Jin Pendant
Chapter 81 Ten Thousand Jin Pendant
Inside the home building, next to the campfire.
In a newly built bathtub, the steaming hot bath water creates mist, and the bodies of the two people soaking in it are vaguely visible.
While helping Chang Xin scrub her wheat-colored body, Liu Hen said, "The Night Mist World is not so easy to conquer. If you really listen to me, don't start a war so quickly."
He couldn't help it after all.
One is that this woman, who already has the demeanor of a queen, is so strong and proactive, which is really exciting.
Another is that he really needs this kind of relationship to maintain his status.
As long as this woman is his, it doesn't matter if the world is not his. Anyway, he never thought of becoming the king of the world from the beginning.
This woman must have been very strong in the past. She had never been touched by any man, and everything on her body was new. Even though the barbarian himself did not have much sense of propriety and shame, his body would instinctively tremble when he was played with like this.
"Of course I'll listen to you on this. Now I'll focus on developing my power."
Chang Xin let Liu Hen rub her body as if it were an object.
Although she would instinctively resist Liu Hen's strange behavior from time to time, she was quite obedient at this time, allowing Liu Hen to manipulate her while saying, "The ultimate goal will not change, but I will do what I can."
Liu Hen couldn't help but ask the question that had always puzzled him: "Why did you come up with the idea of conquering the Night Mist World?"
This was something he always found difficult to understand. Normally, shouldn't a barbarian have no concept of the night fog world?
Many wastelanders probably only know the area around Hongluo Camp and have not ventured too far.
Even Wu Yuanming and others only walked two hundred kilometers at most and did not dare to go too far, so they had only heard of the Tonglong Camp before, but did not know its specific location.
This should be the case for most other people.
But it is so strange that a woman like Chang Xin would have the idea of conquering the night fog world.
Chang Xin was silent for a moment, then suddenly turned around and looked at Liu Hen: "If I say it's related to the nightmare underground, would you believe me?"
"A nightmare beneath the ground?"
Liu Hen paused, frowned, and asked, "How is it related?"
He still has some trauma from the nightmare underground. The things that cause trouble in dreams are hard to guard against, and the dreams are very real, making it difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion.
"When I was very young, I often slept in caves to avoid cannibalistic people, and I often had nightmares."
Chang Xin explained, "Ever since I can remember, I've been constantly fighting enemies in my dreams. Until one day, I was so hungry I couldn't stand it anymore. I killed the enemy in my dream and ate it, and then I saw some images."
"...You ate the nightmare?"
Liu Hen was stunned, but continued to scrub Chang Xin's body, trying to make her wheat-colored skin cleaner.
"I don't know if the one I ate was a nightmare, or a clone of a nightmare, but there's no doubt that the dream was related to a nightmare."
Chang Xin explained, "My supernatural powers actually showed signs of awakening from that time, because at that time I could already distinguish between reality and dreams. After eating that monster in the dream, my awakening abilities stagnated, as if they were sealed by something. It was only recently that I finally fully awakened."
"You mean, eating that monster in a dream can have an effect on you in reality?"
Liu Hen was surprised.
"It can be considered an influence." Chang Xin nodded.
"So what did you see after you ate the monster in your dream?" Liu Hen continued the previous topic.
"There are countless people like me who could starve to death at any time, and countless people who have been driven away or exploited by the camp."
Chang Xin said, "It's been so long that I've forgotten the specific details, but there are a few scenes that I remember vividly. One is the camp's residents with mountains of food, who would rather let the uneaten food spoil than sell it to the inhabitants at a low price. Another is the scene of countless inhabitants fighting the cold and hunger in the darkness. There's also the scene of the camp's residents hiding underground, enjoying themselves under the bright lights, and building high barriers to keep the inhabitants out. And then there's the scene of people without clothes and starving to death everywhere in the darkness outside."
"A mountain of food that can't be eaten? This scene...why does it feel so fake? It's actually more like a normal dream."
Liu Hen said: "Did that nightmare deliberately let you see this?"
"do not know."
Chang Xin replied, "But from that time on, I had the concept of the Night Fog World, and also the idea of opening the camp's granary and distributing it to all the deserters."
At this time, Liu Hen couldn't help but think of what Xiao Heishi once said: Nightmare and Xiao Heishi may be of the same kind.
The same kind here... Now that I think about it, maybe it is the identity of Little Black Stone after it merged with the Stone of Wishes.
The Wishing Stone can actually fulfill the wishes of a dying person. This is definitely not simple and is most likely at the rule level.
If nightmares are also at the level of rules, then they may be completely different from normal demons.
It is unlikely that such a being could be killed in a dream by an ordinary unawakened little girl from the wilderness, even if it was a clone.
"You just said that when you were very young, you fought nightmares in your dreams. What were those enemies like?"
Liu Hen suddenly thought of a possibility. Chang Xin said that her superpowers showed signs of awakening at that time. Could it be that Nightmare noticed this terrifying ability and therefore trained Chang Xin specifically?
Although it felt unrealistic and he didn't quite believe that the underground monsters would do such a thing, he wasn't a nightmare after all, and he didn't know what nightmares were. So it was hard to tell what the truth was.
"That's right, constant fighting. Some of the enemies are myself, some are madmen, and some are demons and other monsters commonly seen in the dark." Chang Xin replied.
The two of them kept talking, mainly about their concepts of the night fog world and their plans for the future.
The conversation lasted several hours.
When the discussion was over, Liu Hen's body became limp and his legs were shaking as he walked out of the bathtub.
On the contrary, Chang Xin, although a little tired, her exhaustion was not so obvious.
"Your physical fitness..."
Chang Xin noticed something unusual: "So the clothes you gave us are the source of your power?"
She had felt it in the bath before. Although Liu Hen's strength was much stronger than that of ordinary barbarians, it was limited. He did not have the terrifying physical fitness that had helped him fight alongside her to repel the bronze dragon.
In fact, she had guessed this possibility from the previous conversation between Wu Yuanming and others, and now this speculation has been confirmed.
"That's right, but the materials needed to make a complete set of clothing are very rare and cannot be widely used at the moment."
Liu Hen didn't say much on this topic. While getting dressed, he said, "Then let's follow our previous agreement. I'll be the head of logistics, and you'll be your queen. The materials I need must be your top priority among all your goals. Finding those materials for me is your priority, and everything else will take a back seat."
"Okay, I need your abilities and I need you to provide me with supplies. Your improved abilities will also benefit me. I will do my best to help you find materials first."
Chang Xin suddenly said, "I know where the silver mine you asked Tong Kun about is."
"Where is it?" Liu Hen cheered up.
"My recently pardoned general, Tai Youwei, told me personally that there's a silver mine about 800 miles from here with enormous reserves."
Chang Xin said: "Tai Youwei came from that place, and most of the other modified people came from there."
"Eight hundred miles... so far."
Liu Hen frowned, but then relaxed his brows and said with a firm look, "Relocation is inevitable. Do you have any plans?"
"I want to take down the Copper Dragon Camp first and raise enough copper ore for you."
Chang Xin said, "You said before that if you want to mass-produce that kind of...homeland cannon, you need a lot of copper ore. The ones we traded before definitely won't be enough, right?"
"Of course it's not enough. Taking into account my other expenses, I can only make about ten at most."
Liu Hen nodded. "Then let's do this. We'll set off for the Copper Dragon Camp in half a month. We'll first take it down. If we can't get other sources of silver from the Copper Dragon Camp, we'll continue migrating. In the early stages, we'll focus on development. If we come across the materials we need, we'll see if we need to attack. But if we can trade, we'll focus on that."
After a pause, he spoke again, "Also, send someone to the Hongluo Camp. I need a large amount of flint. This place is closer to the Hongluo Camp. If the Hongluo Camp refuses to trade, I can support a war."
Chang Xin's eyes lit up.
Liu Hen warned: "Don't cause trouble on purpose."
"I know the severity."
Chang Xin nodded: "We are too weak now. If we rashly start a war, even if we win, the losses will be huge. Then I will go and get busy first."
"Go."
Liu Hen nodded, then suddenly smiled and asked, "You were quite loud just now, will it affect your image as a queen?"
"What is the image of a queen?" Chang Xin wondered.
"..."
Well, the barbarians have no such concept at all. Perhaps they think that even if she is a queen, she is still a woman, and it is normal for her to behave like this.
After failing to tease, Liu Hen lost interest and sent Chang Xin away directly, then looked at the suit that had already been upgraded.
Now he has confirmed that even if the suit being upgraded is taken off, the upgrade will not be interrupted as long as it is put together so that the five modules are close to each other.
