Ark Journey

A silver crack suddenly appeared behind him, and the scenery on both sides of the crack seemed to be out of place.

Time slowed down at this moment. Strong wind blew, and the shaking of the dead trees was almost imperceptible.

Chapter 31: A Handful of Retentions

Xue Zhi seemed to be frozen in place and didn't move.

"Successful!"

A few kilometers away, Ya was controlling his power.

She couldn't wait to see the damn man who stole her capital city cut in half!

But then Ya saw a scene that horrified her.

Xue Zhi was turning around, and the black eyes full of mockery instantly locked onto her position.

He raised his hand, moving even faster than the space crack.

The sound of dead trees shaking was heard, and the dislocated space returned to normal.

Ya, who was terrified of death, turned and ran. She had just seen Xue Zhi use her physical body to restore the distorted space to normal.

What the hell is this thing! Is the beast still alive?

A strong wind blew from behind, and Ya subconsciously summoned his weapon and slashed backwards.

There was no feeling of hitting anything solid, but a sharp pain attacked the brain.

Ya, who was running with the help of power, fell from the air, and her right arm holding the knife was missing.

And the fallen right arm was being stepped on by Xue Zhi.

"You've learned your lesson. Why don't you continue to use your space fragment in front of me?"

His right hand, which had turned black, was covered with a thin layer of ice, and blood with a little glow was dripping on the ice.

Ya supported his body with one arm, his flat chest was covered with mud from falling to the ground.

The wound has stopped bleeding, I don’t know what ability she used.

But from the twisted face of Jiao, it can be seen that he is in great pain.

The two looked at each other from a distance, but everyone knew that this distance was almost the same as face to face for someone who had mastered spatial abilities.

The dark blue energy spread from the soles of Xue Zhi's feet, and the broken arm was immediately corroded into crystal, and then shattered and dissipated.

Xue Zhi, who didn't want to kill her at the moment, threw away the ice crystal on her right hand and said to Ya with cold eyes:

"There won't be a next time. When you see me again, I promise that even the beast behind you will die."

The voice was calm, but full of murderous intent.

Then he left without looking back.

Having saved his life, Ya fell to his knees, sweat dripping onto the ground.

Intense pain emanated from the broken arm, and even the pain directly affected the soul.

Ya didn't expect Xue Zhi to be so strong.

This time, in addition to her losing an arm, the elite of the Shanhai Clan also suffered heavy losses. These were originally planned to be used in the future invasion of Yumen. Each of them possessed a certain blessing from the giant beast, and if they attacked together, they might be able to delay Chongyue for a while. In the end, they were all buried here.

It is true that he lost his wife and lost his troops.

When the pain subsided a little, Ya picked up his weapon and then limped into the darkness.

Xue Zhi didn't kill her because she might be useful in the future.

And after all, she is a giant beast. In an emergency, she might be able to serve as a scapegoat or research material.

In addition, the psionic energy had already penetrated deep into her body and even directly attached to her soul.

The death penalty can be avoided but the living punishment cannot. I believe this power will give her unexpected surprises!

Xue Zhi, who had just killed a lot of people, was in a good mood.

After cleaning off the odor on his body, he walked step by step towards Jiangqi City, and on the way he took the opportunity to get close to someone from a caravan.

This caravan also came back from outside, so relying on some very special food and fluent Lucheng dialect, Xue Zhi quickly became familiar with them and started chatting.

"Brother, I just came back from serving in Yumen. Is there anything new here or can I make money?"

"Serving in the military? Are you still a soldier? That's really disrespectful. Let me toast to you first."

After drinking two glasses of wine to ward off the cold, someone started talking.

“There’s nothing new, but we heard that Jiang Qicheng had just moved to a new location, and we happened to find a good quality iron mine nearby.

But the terrain over there is not very good. It is in a mountain, and large mining mobile platforms cannot enter. You can only rely on small ones to dig slowly. If you want to make money, you can go there to have a look. They may lack guards. After all, it is not peaceful in the mountains. There will always be some wild beasts and bandits attacking miners. "

After hearing the news, Xue Zhi's attention was completely focused on the small mining platform.

This kind of thing is very useful. He remembered that there was a coal mine in Kazitun, and he didn't know whether they had continued to explore the surrounding area.

It’s not that I want to steal it. I can just sweep the architect’s workbench and make it mine. Why bother offending a big country?

Now I just hope this thing isn't too big.

After this person finished speaking, someone else continued.

"If you don't get seasick, you can make a living on the sea. Now that Da Yan has lifted the ban on fishing, the scaled beasts along the coast are very abundant because they haven't been fished for a long time. You can catch a lot with one cast of the net. If there are any rare fish species, one fish can be worth several days' wages."

"That's right. We are in this business. There are no delicious scaled beasts in the inland cities, so we transport them from Jiangqi City. If you find anything good, please consider us."

As he spoke, someone handed Xue Zhi a business card.

After Xue Zhi took a look at it, she put it into her backpack.

"Okay, if I receive anything good, I will definitely think of my buddies."

This group of people, both men and women, were very enthusiastic and did not disgrace Jiang Qicheng's reputation for kindness.

Xue Zhi stayed with them until they entered the city and then separated.

After entering the city, Xue Zhi first found a place to stay, and then began to search for information about the newly discovered iron mine on the Internet.

This message is large, so it is relatively simple to query related information.

However, after searching for a long time, Xue Zhi still didn't find what she wanted.

"No news reports about mining tools? I guess I have to go check it out myself."

Xue Zhi walked out of the hotel after memorizing the location and planning to visit it in the evening.

The streets were filled with familiar accents, and if it weren't for the buildings that had a mixture of ancient and modern elements, Xue Zhi would have felt like she was home.

Heading east, Xue Zhi walked towards the sea while eating some familiar snacks.

Jiangqi City, a typical coastal mobile city, has a very interesting feature.

That is, part of them is open to the sea, and some are even directly submerged in the sea water.

Jiangqi City did not sink into the sea, but many of its ports were submerged in water, so it might be easier to deal with seawater erosion.

Near the ocean, a faint fishy smell wafts in along with the sea breeze.

The weather has not been very good these days. It is cloudy and windy.

High, dark grey waves constantly hit the shore, leaving behind white foam.

However, this has little impact on those cargo ships. There are many ships docked at ports of all sizes. They load and unload cargo, and then transport various materials to other cities along the coastline by sea.

Chapter 32: New Blueprint

On a beach that was open for people to play but not crowded due to bad weather, Xue Zhi carefully approached the beach and then put her body into the sea.

With his senses fully open, he didn't feel anything unusual.

"Safety."

It seems that Hai Si will not react to me, so I don't have to worry about any disaster caused by my arrival.

At night, Xue Zhi, who had been strolling around all day, stretched lazily and walked out of the hotel door.

After quickly determining the direction, he walked towards the location of the iron mine.

The night market is also worth seeing, but now there are more important things to do.

Instead of going through the main gate, Xue Zhi chose the fastest way to leave the city.

As long as no one finds you, there won't be any problem as you can just exit the same way you came in.

There was still no moon today. With the help of the moonlight, Xue Zhi flew into the sky at a certain distance away from Jiang Qicheng.

Ever since he learned to fly, he was rarely willing to walk when traveling.

The terrain around Jiangqi City is very similar to that of Lu City, with continuous mountains but none of them are too high.

Not long after flying, Xue Zhi noticed a bright light coming out of a valley.

There is also a huge structure resting on the slightly flat ground next to it.

The mobile platform for mining is more than 400 meters long and 170 meters wide, equipped with a variety of preliminary smelting equipment and can perform simple separation.

The above is what Xue Zhi observed in the sky.

Now there is a difficult problem before him, how to obtain the blueprint of this thing?

You can guess with your knees that it won't stop working, and it's difficult to do anything because it's so bright around.

So Xue Zhi waited slowly in the sky, thinking that there would always be a chance.

At two o'clock in the morning, when people are most tired, the opportunity comes.

The mobile city has indeed not stopped construction, but judging from the raised dust and the lights on, the construction site is now at its least efficient.

Xue Zhi started to move, several landmarks were inserted into the ground, and one more needed a pillar.

After relying on trees for camouflage, it was finally set up. After the frame was formed, Xue Zhi quickly removed the pillar.

Dozens of fuel engines started working, huge energy columns flowed in the pipelines, and construction workbenches were quickly generating blueprints.

The surrounding air was sucked out, creating a soundproof area.

The yellow and black frame lines are hard to spot in the dark, which is one of the few good news.

Xue Zhizhi released her spiritual power to monitor the surroundings to prevent people from coming here, and at the same time killed all animals that approached.

Time passed bit by bit, the sky became darker, but this huge city that had been dormant for a short time came back to life silently.

A lot of lights came on and the machines that had been working all night increased their output.

"Phew, I caught up, I caught up."

Xue Zhi was flying in the air with a blueprint floating beside her.

He managed to get the blueprints before he was discovered.

Although this city is smaller than the one looted in Ursus, the mineral processing equipment it has is extremely useful, and it is also easy to build and requires less materials.

I don’t know how Kazitun is developing now, but with it, it should be able to speed up the development.

After returning to Jiangqi City, Xue Zhi felt the wind getting stronger in the sky. He looked up at the sky and saw large patches of clouds moving slowly. From the clouds, he could tell that the wind was blowing from the sea.

Without paying much attention, Xue Zhiluo returned to the city and walked towards the hotel where she was staying.

After taking a quick look at the newly acquired blueprint, Xue Zhi put it away.

It was late now and there were hardly any night markets to visit, so he took a rest.

The next morning, Xue Zhi woke up and continued to wander around Dahuang City.

But the weather today is very bad, with dark clouds overhead and a cold wind mixed with strong humidity.

But since the Messenger of Natural Disaster and the city did not move, it means that it was normal weather conditions and everyone should go to work or school.

Passing by a school and listening to the sound of reading coming from inside, Xue Zhi suddenly thought of a person, Jie, the only one of the twelve fragments who returned to the age phase. It was also because of her that Wang planned to implement his life-threatening plan.

"If nothing goes wrong, maybe I can see her from here?"

Jie is in charge of writing, and Jiang Qicheng is the hometown of Confucius and Mencius in the real world, with a strong cultural atmosphere, so it is normal to put her here.

But these are all imaginary things, who knows whether they are true or false.
