Ark Journey

"I have left you enough potions to heal your soul. I hope you will be fully recovered when we meet next time."

After a few days of observation, Xue Zhi used mathematical tools to calculate the amount of potion needed for Shu to fully recover.

And on this basis, he gave her 20% more.

"Well, I'll prepare some things for you and others, take them and leave."

"Ah."

Shu spent some time preparing things for Xue Zhi to take away. She did the same as Ji, preparing a bunch of big and small bags, and wrote the owners of the things according to their names.

The next morning, after a good night's sleep and a last meal of dumplings, Xue Zhi set off on her journey.

Shu saw him off outside the Great Wilderness City. She no longer wore the dress made of mat pieces, but another one that looked better.

Xue Zhi guessed that this should have been a gift from Ji, because the material and craftsmanship looked very good.

"After this farewell, I don't know when we will meet again."

"It will be done soon. I will come here in a few days to build the 'Twelve Towers and Five Cities'. This will be your family's support in the future. Also, your second brother and your best brother are preparing for some big things. I will come back to see them then."

Shu didn't expect Xue Zhi even knew this.

However, she did not hesitate about anything and took the initiative to hug Xue Zhi.

"See you then."

"Ah."

Xue Zhi left Dahuang City and flew to the next stop, Jiangqi City.

While he was stirring up trouble, a child-like person came to Yumen.

Holding the fruit he had gotten from somewhere, the child with round horns sat on the table in front of the general and said:

"What? You said the demon's attack came ahead of schedule, and was dealt with by someone?"

However, the general, whose beard had turned quite white, did not dare to act rashly in front of the child.

"It's like this, old master, someone helped us get rid of the evil spirits and taught us a lot of useful things."

"Tell me, what kind of person is he?"

"Very strong, probably on par with you. Very kind, easy to talk to, doesn't care too much about a lot of things. Plus, he looks like this."

The commander repeated how the people here felt about Xue Zhi, and then turned on a machine that contained photos of Xue Zhi taken on the day of the memorial service for the fallen soldiers.

The old Taoist priest looked carefully and found that there was no one in his memory who looked like this and was comparable to himself.

"Could it be that this old monster just appeared from nowhere? Commander, do you think it's possible that he disguised his age?"

"That shouldn't be the case. From our interactions with him, we can see that his personality completely matches his appearance. Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that he is disguising himself very well."

"Where is he now?"

"The Grand Master asked him to deliver a message to the other fragments of the Year Beast."

This suddenly made the old Taoist priest a little nervous. If the people here misjudged Xue Zhi, then allowing a person of this level to run around in the territory of Yan Country would not be a good thing.

And he still went to touch the fragments of the Year Beast.

"No, I have to go and see."

The old Taoist priest had just arrived in Yumen, but he did not stay long before heading to the nearest Dahuang City.

Among the several fragments, the only one whose location is closest is Shu.

When Chongyue, who was on a mission outside, came back and learned that the old Taoist priest had arrived, he went to the general.

"So the old Taoist priest doesn't trust Xue Zhi?"

"More or less. After all, she hasn't seen it with her own eyes. And I don't understand why you, Grandmaster, want him to meet other people."

"Because I feel like he's a very big variable, and he might be able to mess up fate or something."

"Grandmaster still believes this?"

"Why don't you believe it? Especially after seeing Xue Zhi, I felt this way."

"alright."

As an ordinary person, the general did not question Zhongyue's feelings too much.

"By the way, has the old Taoist seen the things Xue Zhi left behind?"

"I saw it, but she didn't come up with anything in a short period of time. She said it might be an extremely secret magic system."

"Even the old master can't see it? Now Xue Zhi's identity is even more interesting, but he has a certain amount of goodwill towards Dayan, and that's enough."

"Yeah, that's enough."

Xue Zhi, who was flying at high speed in the air, didn't know that someone was already targeting him. He was currently crossing the sky at a very fast speed.

He had spent some time in Dahuang City, so he did not plan to walk on the ground, but to fly directly to Jiangqi City.

Chapter 30: I love dancing

The speed of flying in the sky is much faster than walking on the ground, especially when Xue Zhi is speeding at 1.5 times the speed of sound.

There are only a few birds of prey that can fly to this altitude without any obstacles.

Seeing these birds with sharp beaks and claws, Xue Zhi suddenly missed Alpha. When he left, he gave it to Alina to take care of, so he believed it would be doing well now.

On the Ursus snowfield, a woman with deer horns dressed in black was walking on the edge of the gathering troops.

There was the sound of flapping wings, and a bird of considerable size landed on her raised hand, then sneezed.

"Caught a cold, Alpha?"

Alina touched its feathers, and after applying a little force, a solid golden light appeared.

"Goo."

Alpha stood on Alina's shoulder and shook out his feathers, showing no signs of discomfort.

It turned its head and rubbed Alina's palm, looking docile.

"Maybe Xue Zhi missed you. He told me that people will sneeze when they are missed."

Since coming to this world, Xue Zhi has never stopped. Based on his observations and physical sensations, this continent in the Terra world is much larger than the Pangu continent in ancient times on Earth.

Each country looks so small on the map, but in fact it is much larger than you think.

The compass and map floated beside Xue Zhi. Without real-time satellite positioning, he had to take out the map frequently for comparison. Otherwise, at his speed, a slight mistake would lead to a huge difference.

Dayan set up many post stations in the wilderness. These post stations can be used to deliver messages and provide a place for messengers to rest, and can also be used as landmarks to identify directions.

"Let me see, Post Station 815, we should adjust the direction a little bit now."

Standing on the clouds, Xue Zhi looked down and saw a brightly lit camp standing there, with a large number of pedestrians and convoys coming in and out.

A huge canvas with the number 815 written on it was hung on the tallest building in the camp.

After completing the positioning, Xue Zhi continued on her way.

Around midnight, he finally saw a huge city appear at the end of his sight.

Also appearing are the surrounding continuous mountains and the extremely deep ocean under the night sky.

The reflection of Lu City in the Terra world, Jiang Qi City.

There is no special purpose for coming here, I just want to come and take a look and try to contact the sea creatures in the sea.

Since leaving Kazdel, Xue Zhi's participation in the plot has skyrocketed as she has grown, so she is no longer just going with the flow like when she first came to Terra.

Many of the events that happened in Ursus and Dayan, the two great countries, were influenced by him.

In fact, the reason for not participating is that the Sarkaz plot line involves too many things, and it is difficult for Xue Zhi to start. If she is not careful, it may lead to a big problem.

And now, Regent Tracy should have taken the Sarkaz to Londinium. As for whether the plot there has started, Xue Zhi, who has not paid much attention to the timeline, doesn't know.

As they approached Jiangqi City, Xue Zhi landed and began to walk.

At the same time, he disguised himself as a businessman.

There was no moon today, so the wilderness was pitch black. And because it was deep winter, everything was quiet. There was almost no sound of insects, except for the occasional rustling of bushes.

"Help!"

A voice broke the silence of the night like lightning.

Xue Zhi, who was walking, was startled by this because the female voice was very sharp.

"There are robbers in this kind of place? Or something else?"

In the distance, tiny lights can be seen in Jiangqi City. Logically, this location shouldn't be too barbaric, but there are always unexpected things.

Xue Zhi took a quick look to identify the source and then walked towards the direction where the sound came from. After all, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda.

And he doesn't have to worry about being cheated because no kidnapper has the ability to do so.

A few minutes later, following the continuous cries for help, Xue Zhi found the woman who made the sound.

This is a plump woman with her hands tied behind her back and tied to a tree. There is no one around her.

The clothes were a bit messy, and the outermost warm clothes were gone, leaving only some inner linings that looked like they were warm.

The woman now looks weak, as if she is tired.

She lowered her head, with her long bangs covering her eyes, but one could still tell from her fair skin and cherry lips that she was a beauty.

Seeing this scene, Xue Zhi's eyes lit up, and then she strode forward.

He came to the woman and half-knelt on the ground.

"Ma'am, do you need help? What happened?"

There was no answer, only the sound of shallow breathing.

Xue Zhi didn't ask any more questions, but directly pulled out a knife from her leg and cut the rope that tied her up.

The hemp rope is not very strong and breaks easily.

The moment the rope hit the ground, something strange happened.

A bright magical light lit up in the dead woods not far away, and the woman in front of her who had regained her freedom grabbed Xue Zhi's arm.

This hand is very powerful and does not look thin and weak at all.

She looked up, revealing a face that was indeed pretty but unusually fanatical.

"The mountains, seas and the vast land all belong to their master!"

A familiar slogan sounded, and bright magical light suddenly appeared.

However, the woman found that the man half-kneeling in front of her did not have a trace of panic on his face, only a hint of sarcasm.

The environment that had just been illuminated by the magic light suddenly dimmed.

The people who were ambushing around were dealt with by Xue Zhi before they could even jump out, and the spell that had just been condensed dissipated directly.

At this moment, in the dead wood bushes, heads were rolling and blood was flowing like a river.

Xue Zhi sighed softly. Having just noticed something was wrong, he immediately checked the surroundings and found that it was indeed a trap.

"Alas, I really don't know why you are like this. Ya treats you like consumables, but you still work so hard for her. Maybe this is the fate of consumables."

Then he forcibly broke the woman's fingers. The spell just now was used to strengthen physical fitness, no wonder it was so powerful.

She was still alive only because Xue Zhi didn't want to be splattered with blood.

"what!!!"

The woman, who was completely controlled by the invisible force, could only watch Xue Zhi break her fingers.

The handsome face was twisted in intense pain.

"What a pity, you are such a beautiful lady, but you are a thief."

An icicle piercing her throat and body ended her suffering.

After doing all this, Xue Zhi summoned a water ball and washed her hands.

"Why are the Shanhai Clan here? I remember they seem to only be active in Yumen?"

His doubts were answered in an instant.
