I have a map editor

Because on the surface, that thing is just a stone-carved handicraft, and neither the magic fluctuations it emits nor the "magic aura" observed with a special vision is very obvious.

The function is indeed somewhat similar to the [Attribute Panel], but there is no visual panel for operation. One can only vaguely feel one's own attributes and a few extraordinary abilities.

Perhaps according to the standards of the "Crown Eagle Mountain Force", these are not considered extraordinary abilities, but rather some abilities with the prefix "basic".

This is the vague information obtained by teachers and students representatives selected from the scene who came forward and got close to the "occupational stone". It seems that the "occupational stone" is somewhat special. Ordinary people can get some related vague information in their minds just by touching it.

However, this thing is indeed an amazing treasure in an ordinary world that has just come into contact with magical elements. At least it represents the ability to reach the extraordinary realm, and there is also the possibility of growth in the future.

There were a total of 6 "career props", and none of them were unsold. All of them were sold out by the activity group organized by Zhang Xiaowu.

For some unknown reason, Zhang Xiaowu himself did not get a photo of such an inaugural prop.

Yang Sheng spent the afternoon helping to build and reinforce fortifications, and did not pay attention to the movements of the two rows of soldiers of the National Guard. To be honest, except for the People's Army, the discipline of any other army is not very good, including the same entity, Xia State.

They would honestly not interfere. Yang Sheng believed that there was some big shot in the school or some powerful person in Zhang Xiaowu's team, which made them cautious and the probability of their discipline being as good as that of the People's Army was very small.

In other words, Zhang Xiaowu had already prepared a "trophy" and secretly traded it to Liu Zhengxin and his people.

Moreover, according to his estimation, the students who bought these six inaugural props might have been recruited by Zhang Xiaowu. This guy has initially built a team with certain combat capabilities.

Now looking at the reactions around him, the team and auction format he organized have been widely accepted by teachers and students. As long as he can continue like this, he will be a perfect template for the male protagonist of the doomsday trend.

"Oh, that's great. With this special profession, even if I don't rely on the army or the police, I don't have to worry about being attacked by monsters."

Mixed in with Yang Sheng's family, Ji Yan was quite jealous of the "career props" that had been distributed.

If it was the People's Army, Yang Sheng wouldn't think there was anything wrong with relying on them, but the situation in this world was different. Maybe the mentality of the Xia people was more like the United States in a parallel universe, where the government and the police were unreliable, and the people really only had guns to protect themselves...

Although they had no close contact, Emily, Nina and Lina had accumulated extraordinary knowledge and levels. Through visual observation and perception, they roughly understood that the value of the "employment props" was really low for them. It was no wonder that they were ignored by Yang Sheng.

The highlights of the auction, in addition to the "employment props", also include some "skill stones" and equipment-related treasures.

There are more than ten "skill stones", and the names sound quite low-level, such as the "Powerful Strike" skill stone, the "Sword Attack" skill stone, the "Powerful Strike" skill stone, the meditation method, and so on.

I don't know if the specific effects are as good as the various basic skills with basic beginnings popular among the "Crown Eagle Mountain Forces".

The equipment treasures are mostly protective gear such as chest guards, shoulder guards, and wrist guards, with a small number of weapons, and no special accessories such as rings and necklaces. As for the attributes... Yang Sheng threw out a few [Identification Spells] from a distance. They were all magic equipment that ordinary people could wear without the equipment conditions, and they were all small top-grade items. However, compared with their family's gains, they cannot be said to be impractical. It can only be said that they are two completely different types of items. What their family gained is called extraordinary items, which are basically things that cannot be made with Yang Sheng's accumulated magic knowledge, while these treasures and equipment are special equipment focused on combat, which are very common in the Crown Eagle Mountain forces.

Most of the latter types can be made by himself as well as the alchemists and equipment masters of Crown Eagle Mountain, so they are not very attractive to him.

On the contrary, Yang Sheng was very interested in those material treasures that were temporarily useless to the local supernatural beings. Unfortunately, they had just arrived and did not have much currency from this world. Therefore, even though the items failed to be sold within Zhang Xiaowu's team and were later sold publicly, they were unable to purchase them.

Yang Sheng thought about it. At first, he wanted to use [Charm] to influence Zhang Xiaowu, but he always set strict requirements on himself. Even if it was necessary, he tried not to use such means on the same kind. So he changed to using "secret words" to remind him a few words.

[The situation is still unclear, and part of the auction proceeds will be used as team funds]

[Win over the school, negotiate with Liu Zhengxin, use the military's channels to buy common supplies, defense equipment and even weapons and equipment from them, if possible]

[This can not only improve one's social status, but also help one build good relations with the public and the military... at least the National Guard.]

Zhang Xiaowu, who was hosting the auction on the stage, suddenly heard the words echoing in his mind. He tried his best to remain restrained, looked around with a slightly doubtful look on his face, and after finding Yang Sheng's position in the audience, he saw that the other party smiled and waved at him, his face full of disbelief.

He carefully looked around at the other people and found that he was indeed the only one who concealed his emotions well after hearing these words.

……

Because he had moved and carried things in the afternoon, as well as done civil engineering work such as digging, after returning to the accommodation arranged by the school, Yang Sheng went to take a shower first.

As mentioned before, the accommodation provided by the school is the teachers' dormitory, which is in very good conditions. It not only has a separate bathroom, but also a kitchen, two bedrooms, and even air conditioning.

In comparison, others did not have such good treatment. Although there were no residents near the school, most of the people working in the commercial area in front of the school were taking refuge in the school. In addition, the school's own day students were arranged to sleep on the floor in the auditorium and indoor sports field.

When I came out of the shower, while I was drying my hair, I saw Amy and a few others curled up on the sofa in the living room, hugging pillows and watching TV.

The TV was broadcasting some official news, and at this moment it happened to be showing the scene of "Shi Man calling the police".

Although the "earth element" created by Yang Sheng was widely circulated on the Internet and in various private chat groups, the authorities remained cautious and regulated it on all Internet platforms and portals. I don't know why it was released at this time.

Not only was it broadcast in the news, but it was also hyped up all over the Internet.

The various self-media may have received a warning, and at most created a suspenseful atmosphere of "approaching science", and finally only made a fuss about "warning to mankind", but did not take the opportunity to hype up topics such as "the one-eyed stone man incites the world to rebel".

There are also some self-media that are digging deep into the origins of these "earth element" artistic images, because some of the "earth elements" overlap with the culture or cultural relics of other countries and nations in the world, most of which are lands that were once colonized by the Xia Kingdom in history... This has given rise to many self-media imaginations.

In addition, this world's Xia Kingdom also has a National Art Museum, which houses precious cultural relics from all over the world during the colonial period.

However, compared with the one in Da Yingdi Country, there is no evaluation such as "stolen" or "robbed", and the means of obtaining these collections seem to be much more gentle.

Oh yes, although the phenomenon of "space-time interaction" occurred and space turbulence broke out in outer space, the communications of the entire planet were basically unaffected.

This is also one of the reasons why Yang Sheng is unsure about the future direction of the world.

As long as communications do not collapse, the order of the entire society will basically not collapse.

Even when entering the magic age, it will be a very civilized magic society with industrial civilization, rule of law and democracy as the themes, rather than a chaotic state of monarchs and knights' castles, or warlord separatism and local forces being king.

This world has "mobile phones" and the development of the Internet is no different from what they are used to. Although Emily and the other two's mobile phones do not have special abilities, and Yang Sheng's "mobile phone" needs to "adapt" for a period of time before it can adapt to the technology type of this world and access the Internet of this world, these do not prevent their family from understanding the Internet information of this world.

Although it is not the case that there are "unclaimed mobile phones all over the ground", it is not difficult for them to pick up a few mobile phones during the chaos.

The "earth element" created by Yang Sheng can last for a few days. If the concentration of magical elements in the world increases, the duration will be extended accordingly.

After contacting the military in the morning, because there had been no aggressive behavior, both sides were at peace. After various monsters began to descend, more than twenty "earth elements" began to disperse and help clear out the monsters.

With these behaviors, they are generally regarded as "friendly units" by local humans.

Yang Sheng originally wanted to sit aside, but Amy waved and asked him to sit between her and Nina. Nina decisively "had men but no sisters" and abandoned Lina, and instead took his arm. Amy took the towel from his hand, knelt on the sofa and wiped his head carefully.

"Strange, isn't the news about these clay colossi censored? Why was it released?"

Yang Sheng didn't see the cause and effect, so he asked. Mud Colossus is a name given by the locals, because they are completely observed to be transformed from mud. There are other names such as "rock puppet" and "mud grunt" on the Internet.

Emily, who was wiping his head, curled her lips and said:

"Why else? Seeing that these earth elements have a friendly attitude, the authorities are using them for propaganda purposes."

"Oh……"

A few people sat on the sofa and chatted for a while. Amy and Nina each held one of Yang Sheng's arms and stood up:

"Elbow, come into the house with us, hehe..."

……

The next morning, the family went to the cafeteria to get food, full of energy and refreshed. In addition to Ji Yan, Liu Zhengxin and Zhang Xiaowu also sat down at their table with their trays.

"Mr. Yang, I wonder what you think about our action plan for the next few days. If you have any, please feel free to give me some advice."

After exchanging pleasantries, Liu Zhengxin got straight to the point.

"You already know the habits of the red and green monsters and the yellow monster children, which are the largest in number. Keep attacking and clearing them out to prevent them from gathering near the university. As long as you are careful, the other monsters that are slightly more powerful will not pose a threat to you, so... just keep going."

Yang Sheng had no reservations and gave him the suggestion.

"I think so too. I will lead the team to continue the attack in the morning. What are your plans, Mr. Yang?"

"I will stay in the school and continue to help the school improve its defenses. I guess the school has some ideas about me. I may also help the school train students' group combat capabilities... I don't think you will be stationed in the city for a long time. The strength of these descending monsters is not great. The government may follow the ancient local defense strategy and open up some weapons to the public. Train security forces similar to militias based on streets or communities."

Hearing what he said, the three outsiders at the table were stunned, then looked thoughtful, and after a moment they all nodded slowly.

Everyone thinks that this is an approach that conforms to economic laws and actual conditions.

I was a little dazed for a moment, not knowing what changes would happen to the world and my life in the future.

After dinner, seeing that Ji Yan and Liu Zhengxin had left, Zhang Xiaowu started talking to Yang Sheng and asked:

"Why? Why did you give me a heads up?"

He almost didn't sleep last night. He racked his brains but couldn't figure out why Yang Sheng said those three sentences to him. However, he had to admit that Yang Sheng was right and he couldn't find any reason to refute it.

"Why can't I remind you?" Yang Sheng asked with a smile, and then said: "I told you, I just came here to help. Seeing that you are a promising talent, I reminded you a few words. Isn't this normal?"

Is this normal? Maybe... For a brief moment, Zhang Xiaowu truly felt that there was a gap between him and the man in front of him. It was not the gap that he was better at fighting or mastered advanced skills. After thinking for a long time, he thought of a word: hills and valleys or pattern.

When he came to his senses, Yang Sheng and the three girls had also left, leaving him alone sitting in his seat for a long time.

……

The original purpose of Maizhou University was to win over Yang Sheng. After just one day, Liu Zhengxin and Zhang Xiaowu's attitudes also tended towards him. In addition to the special abilities that Yang Sheng demonstrated, he was also very professional in how to build fortifications and organize student teams, so he soon became a figure like a "manager", mainly responsible for the construction of campus fortifications, as well as the militarized management of students and taking over the defense of the campus.

In the morning, Liu Zhengxin and Zhang Xiaowu continued to lead the team out. The former was mainly responsible for clearing out the surrounding monster groups, while the latter, in addition to fighting the monsters he encountered,

It is to conduct a carpet search of the surrounding mountainous and forested areas, or collect anything that looks like "treasure".

In addition, perhaps influenced by the outside public opinion and the failure of the auction organized by Zhang Xiaowu, with the auction items valued at millions, the hot topics discussed by the outside public opinion now, in addition to a series of abnormal phenomena caused by "time-space interaction", are the various products of the interaction of laws that have descended on various places with the abnormal phenomena - treasures.

Yang Sheng and his family did not see the end of yesterday's auction, so they had no idea what unexpected events had occurred but that the dozen or so items that failed to be sold within the team would have been hyped up to hundreds of thousands per piece, with the final total transaction amount reaching millions of Xia country currency.

I can only say that there may be a lot of rich people in the school.

Anyway, this result greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of all teachers and students to "go out and hunt for treasures", but although they were envious, it was not so easy to put it into actual action. Even though Zhang Xiaowu was used as a model, no second team similar to "Zhang Xiaowu" appeared for the entire morning, or even in the next two days.

Yang Sheng does have this ability, but in his opinion, a force like "Zhang Xiaowu" has already grown up in the comprehensive university. Without knowing the future direction of this world, he has no interest in cultivating a competitor for him.

Everything should be based on the principle of "preparing for the worst" and continue to observe for a while.

0006

While the situation in Maizhou City is going very well, the situation in other parts of the world is not the same.

Because of its vast territory and abundant wealth, even if the Xia Kingdom has military exercises or urban combat simulations, they are all held in sparsely populated deserts, or in uninhabited desert cities built in sparsely populated deserts. These are military facilities that are 1:1 replicas of human inhabited towns and are filled with various plastic mannequins.

Therefore, in most cases, military forces, including those of the National Guard, will not be deployed in urban areas.

The National Guard was mobilized to enter the city of Maizhou as a special case only because of a passing time traveler. Under the influence of [Charm], defensive arrangements were made against the descending monsters to minimize the damage.

As for other places and countries and regions outside Xia...we just need to make a comparison. If an adult human suddenly encounters a dog weighing 20 or 30 kilograms, it is unlikely that he will be bitten to death because of the huge difference in weight and strength, but it is absolutely possible that he will be bitten or even seriously injured.

Although the combat effectiveness of the initial stage advent monsters is weak, they are still much more professional than a 20- or 30-pound dog. Moreover, the number is not as simple as 1VS.1. It is usually 1VS. several or even 1VS. dozens... In this case, casualties on the human side are inevitable before professional troops enter the city.

Moreover, the army itself must also clear out the descending monsters within the defense zone, and at least ensure the safety of the rear base, so that it will have spare capacity to send rescue forces to the city. As a result, except for a few sensitive and key areas that can be rescued at the first time, most areas will have to wait for several hours before the soldiers enter the city.

In just a few hours, with most people unarmed and without professional combat training, it is conceivable that the number of casualties among the people would definitely not be low. In fact, this is indeed the case. Medical institutions in various places are overcrowded at once, and there is a run on medical resources. Businesses such as corpse collection and corpse makeup are unprecedentedly prosperous. If it weren't for the custom of keeping corpses for three days before cremation and burial in this world, I'm afraid there would be runs on crematoriums...

But survivor bias has always existed objectively, just like the 1600 million+ excess deaths from the Coronavirus epidemic in the parallel world. The dead will not speak for themselves. In this world's Xia country, it is not the case that a major accident will be defined as a XX number of casualties among the people, and the local officials and even the higher-level authorities will be held jointly liable.

In addition, when dealing with such emergencies, the official approach of the Xia Kingdom is more similar to that of Europe and the United States in a parallel world, diverting the topic, attracting public attention, celebrity cheating, landslide gossip, etc., among other things. Apart from anything else, the descending treasures that appear along with the descending monsters and the "lucky ones" who get the treasures are enough to attract public attention. Faced with such a major change, the people are more keen to discuss who got what treasure and who got what special abilities.

Because the "space-time interaction" is still happening, the specific data on losses and casualties cannot be counted, or from the perspective of Xia officials, they have counted but are unwilling to announce it to the public. It's like the countries and regions in the parallel universe that claim to have the strongest technological capabilities on the Blue Planet, but even in the past three years, they have not used their advanced network technology to build a big data platform for current affairs tracking and monitoring the epidemic situation...

Against this backdrop, whether it is traditional television or online media, what occupies the most coverage and is the most hotly discussed are the strange and unusual events that have emerged in various countries during the process of "time-space interaction".

Among them, Emily and her friends even saw videos of Yang Sheng and themselves.

They were all filmed, edited and uploaded to the Internet by citizens of McArthur Glen University and students from comprehensive universities.

Their family is made up of handsome men and beautiful women. Just add some background music and pay a little attention to the editing. Even if the models have their looks and figures, they can get a lot of traffic when posted online.

Not to mention him

They are extraordinary people with real abilities, including Lina, who can hold the holy sword of physics and kill a small monster with one stick, or rush into a pile of monsters and use her invincibility. These are particularly eye-catching performances.

Some students from comprehensive universities also filmed Yang Sheng releasing [Pyroblast] and "teleporting" to avoid the attack helicopters, including a handsome freeze-frame action of "teleporting" from outside the gate to the high-definition picture inside. Many netizens commented that "he was so handsome that it made my face red" or "he was so handsome that I couldn't close my legs."

Especially since Yang Sheng has been in charge of the construction of defense fortifications at the comprehensive university these days, he often participates in the front-line labor in an ordinary way. There are many welfare pictures of him wearing a vest or bare-chested. Although he is not white or round, his big body is really big, with a well-defined waistline and a handsome face. Not to mention that girls have the urge to lick the screen when looking at his pictures, many boys also have the urge...

……

Time passed as these "monsters" and "treasures" descended upon the earth. Relying on the organizational mobilization capabilities, army and combat system of modern society, humans quickly stabilized the situation, and three days passed when the "situation seemed very good".

Yang Sheng didn't know whether it could be called the "first stage". In any case, in his and Lina's perception, the space-time turbulence in the external space gradually subsided, but the space-time rift that was violently torn open did not close naturally. On the contrary, under the huge plane gap, high-concentration magical elemental matter continued to surge into this plane, gradually forming a stable "space-time channel" naturally.

However, what is connected is not the "Misty Realm Space", but an unfamiliar high-magic plane.

To be honest, this "time and space interaction" event broke many of his previous cognitions.

For example, Mr. Earth, who had experienced an incident in the "Flower Kingdom Plane World", disintegrated or was swallowed by an alien space. Before this incident, by observing the entrances to the "Misty Realm Space", he always thought that substances such as magic elements also had mass, so they would naturally settle. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain the phenomenon that there was no trace of magic elements infiltrating or leaking in although there were space entrances all over the world in the "Flower Kingdom Plane World".

But in this world, it is the magical elemental matter that violently sprays and washes into this plane from the high magic plane along the space-time channel like a flood channel - so in his statement, on the basis of the previous cognition being valid and real, he added the cognition that there may be height differences between different planes.

Only in this way can we perfectly explain why two completely opposite phenomena occur in different dimensions.

Now that the space-time turbulence has subsided, although the space-time rift they came from the "Misty Realm Space" has been bridged and disappeared, the obstacle to crossing the space-time crystal wall no longer exists. They can return to the "Misty Realm Space" at any time through the "Teleportation Array" or [Hearthstone].

Some of Yang Sheng's spells also returned to normal, such as "Summoning Creatures from the Astral Realm" and "Summoning Creatures from the Spirit Realm". Moreover, because there is a direct space-time channel connecting to another high-magic world, the effects of these spells have mostly mutated.

The "Misty Realm Space" is quite special. It does not have subsidiary spaces like the "Astral Realm" or the "Spiritual Realm". These spells have no effect in the "Misty Realm Space" and will not summon any creatures.

However, once Yang Sheng constructs the "Lucas Magic Network" and uses it mainly as the "Dark Night Race Base", it will transition into the [Lucas Magic Network]. With the permission of corresponding personal authority, these spells can summon creatures under Yang Sheng's influence to provide services to the caster.
