Dream Travel

Chapter 142 The hatred is just transferred

Bai Mu learned about the general situation of Luoguduo Town from the residents. Now the people here are not so afraid of the big sword, and their lives have become better.

At first, they were wary of people coming to Luoguduo Town, but Baimu's name was really useful. After those people said they came here through Baimu, the locals accepted them.

Of course, there were still doubts, but they did not last long. With the reforms and developments brought about by those people, no residents had any objections.

The mayor might have objected in the past, but he is dead now.

After learning about the specific situation of the town, Baimu went to find Ruifu. The girl was panting and waving a wooden sword. The specifications of this wooden sword were also the type of greatsword weapon, which was very heavy for a child.

Seeing the white curtain, River threw away the wooden sword in her hand and ran over quickly: "You are finally back!"

"I'm just back temporarily." Bai Mu put the weapon box on the ground, reached out to catch the girl who ran over, and weighed it lightly: "Yes, it's much heavier."

Ruifu couldn't help but roll her eyes at Baimu: "No one says girls gain weight."

Bai Mu put Ruifu down. He was very happy that Ruifu had become cheerful. "That means she has grown stronger."

"..." Ruifu, who landed on the ground, looked at Baimu angrily, but Baimu noticed that the girl had changed a lot.

Weight is one thing, but behavior is important. She was training just now, but her behavior was not like that of a girl from an ordinary family.

All in all, she looks more like a little princess. The etiquette teacher assigned to her by the processing bureau is really amazing.

Bai Mu looked towards where River was training. There were two wooden swords with signs of use. He immediately asked, "Didn't Claire train with you?"

"She went to the Great Sword's base." River curiously circled around Baimu and said, "Brother Baimu, I've mastered all the math you taught me. Why was I so stupid before?"

"You've mastered everything? Then you've learned everything I've learned in my life." Bai Mu wasn't too surprised by this, because Luoguduo Town was Ruifu's 'home court'.

She is the protagonist here, so what's wrong with learning things quickly?
Not only that, looking at the changes in this town, it may also be influenced by River.

Bai Mu continued chatting with Rui Fu...for almost three hours!
The girl hadn't seen Baimu for a long time, so she had accumulated a lot of things to say, and she kept talking about it until Denise brought Claire back.

Bai Mu knew that the Great Swordsmen had established a new base on the nearby mountains. However, when he left, it was still under construction, but now it was completely completed.

From what River said, it seemed that those 'traitors' that Baimu had retrieved had reached a cooperation with Dajian.

A lot of new things have been built in the Great Sword base, and sometimes you can see black smoke coming out.

However, in this era, no one cares about air pollution. According to River's description, the people in the processing bureau have already developed a steam engine in this world.

This is not something that can be made by hand, but the people from the processing bureau can bring some things with them when they come in, so it is not difficult to make a steam engine.

The town was "controlled" by the people from the processing bureau, and the residents had no objection to this.

They had lived a hard life when the mayor was alive. After he died, some 'relatives' related to River came and their quality of life improved rapidly. What else could they say?
"You guys play together first, then you follow me."

Denise pushed Claire to River's side, her eyes fell on Bai Mu, and she pulled him away from River.

River pouted in disappointment. The white curtain came and she could temporarily escape from the many study tasks.

Now that Bai Mu has left, doesn't that mean...

"You can take a day off today." Her teacher said this after River found her.

Hearing this, River's mood immediately brightened up. Sometimes she envied Claire's "freedom" and didn't have to learn so many things.

On the other side, Denise took Baimu out of the town and came to a forest. She reached out and pulled open Baimu's collar.

"Wait, some things shouldn't be done here!" Bai Mu didn't expect Denise to be so proactive. He felt that he had miscalculated: "Actually, it doesn't matter if we're here..."

"You are not 'Great Sword'."

After pulling open the collar of Baimu's shirt, Denise could not see any surgical scars.

As soon as she returned to Luoguduo Town, she felt something was wrong. There was an unusually weak demonic aura in the town.

The source of the evil spirit she found was Baimu.

This made Denise think for a moment that Baimu was possessed by a parasite, but after careful confirmation, she confirmed that Baimu was still normal.

It just became similar to a greatsword, with no signs of surgery, no changes to the eyes, and no fading of the hair.

Just like... the descendant of a dragon?
"How is this going?"

Denise began to suspect that River was really a princess of a fallen country. This country possessed some unique technology that could obtain the power of other creatures, and Bai Mu mastered this technology.

"I ate a piece of meat and this is what happened to me."

Bai Mu said truthfully that his demonic aura was indeed related to the meat he had eaten.

"It's that simple?"

"It's that simple. Do you want to take a closer look?" Bai Mu unbuttoned his shirt.

Looking at the body without any signs of surgery, Denise's smile faded a little.

She was once a beautiful human girl with gorgeous black hair, but she lost all of that after becoming a Great Sword. Even though the "servants of the fallen nation" recruited by Bai Mu brought a wealth of new knowledge, they taught the Great Swords new suturing techniques, allowing them to sew surgical scars more precisely, even including internal suturing techniques.

However, no matter how much suturing is done, it can only close the scars of the surgery and cannot truly make them disappear.

The doctor confirmed the cause, saying it was 'genetic rejection'. For those of them who grew up on this small island, it was difficult to understand.

However, through the doctors' explanation, it is not difficult to understand.

Simply put, the implanted demon flesh and blood has not truly integrated into their own bodies. Although they can forcibly use the power brought by the demon flesh and blood, they cannot guarantee that the demon flesh and blood will not rebel.

The part of the wound that cannot heal is equivalent to the territory occupied by the demon's flesh and blood after the rebellion.

Because that part does not belong to them, the wound cannot heal.

With this wound that poses a great threat to them, if they encounter an accident, the greatswords may be forced to awaken due to this fatal factor.

At that time, the demon flesh and blood they implanted took the dominant position, and the demon flesh and blood was in charge, and the wounds on the big sword's body healed naturally.

The doctors analyzed their problems from a more professional perspective, and the possibilities were consistent with what Bai Mu said.

To put it bluntly, it is about how to make the demon's flesh and blood completely surrender and prevent the surgically implanted demon's flesh and blood from continuing to rebel.

Even Denise had a new understanding of this. The semi-awakened ones that Bai Mu mentioned were not yet in the complete stage.

At that time, they had only subdued the demon's flesh and blood, but the problem of 'genetic rejection' that the doctors mentioned still existed.

The semi-awakened ones still did not accept the demon flesh and blood, or allow the demon flesh and blood to be completely transformed into "locals", just like the customs in different regions.

People from the two regions can live together, but their customs have not been integrated. Frictions still arise in daily life due to customs, but there will not be bloody conflicts at every turn.

In any case, with the doctors' conclusions and the possibilities provided by Baimu, the greatswords now have a new goal.

But at this moment, Bai Mu suddenly came back, and became the "perfect" state they currently imagined.

Maybe it can be a reference?
Denise stared at Bai Mu's chest and thought. After getting rid of the organization, she found that although she was not adapted to the ordinary daily life, she did not reject such a daily life.

Bai Mu buttoned his shirt: "Have you seen enough? How about seeing yours?"

"Okay."

"Huh?" Are medieval girls so enthusiastic?

Before Bai Mu could say anything, he saw the stitches on Denise's chest.

The precise stitching turned the unhealable wound into a thin line, which crossed the Grand Canyon and continued to extend downwards...

Bai Mu looked at it very seriously.

"I'll bring you some cosmetics next time I come." Bai Mu thought about it and didn't look away. The other person was generous enough to let him look at her, and it would be impolite to look away.

"No one would want to see such scars."

Denise didn't give Bai Mu a chance to look and pulled her clothes back up.

"I am not?"

Denise didn't continue chatting with Bai Mu: "Come with me."

She took Baimu to Dajian's new base.

The changes here are quite big. Bai Mu actually saw a steam engine here...

Some trainees were practicing suturing techniques on shaved beasts. Bai Mu paid a little attention and found that they were actually internal suturing. As for the problem of the suture lines, it seemed not to be a problem for the greatswords.

"You have quite a lot of changes here."

"With that machine, many things have become more convenient."

Denise looked at the running steam engine.

Bai Mu said nonchalantly, "It's just a steam engine. The essence of human beings is to boil water. If we develop better, we can boil water even more powerfully."

Denise nodded and brought Bai Mu to the training ground, where another group of trainees were sweating profusely.

For the people in this world, Bai Mu was away for several months, which was far from enough time for the trainees to complete their training.

In the past, there were casualties among trainees during their training in the organization, but the trainees would be replenished at any time and the number was always sufficient.

But the organization was destroyed, and there would be no new trainees in the future, so the training intensity of this group of trainees was reduced a bit, at least no one would die, and accordingly, the training cycle was also increased.

"You all look so energetic. It seems you have escaped the shadow of the organization."

“…It’s just that the hatred has shifted.”

Denise shook her head. Except for a few, most of the greatswords fought with faith. When their faith was affected, they always had to establish a new goal.
