Chapter 41 Codename: Suzaku
"Master Chu, what do I need to do during this year's inspection period?" Gu Xu raised his head and asked.
Now that he has decided to go to the "Shenji Camp", he must understand the information in advance, make a plan, and then go all out.
"First of all, you need to stay in Yishui County and fulfill your 'experience' responsibilities," Chu Fengge replied after hearing Gu Xu's words, "While doing your job well, exorcise demons The Si Jingcheng headquarters will also assign you some special tasks - your performance in performing these special tasks will determine whether you can officially become a member of the 'Shenji Battalion' in the future."
said. At this point, Chu Fengge waved his sleeves and threw a metal token into Gu Xu's hand.
Then he went on to introduce: "This token has the function of transmitting messages. The Exorcist Division headquarters will use this token to assign the task to you."
Gu Xu caught the token.
I saw that the metal token was bronze in color, with some rust, and felt cold to the touch.
In the center of it, there are two simple large characters written in small seal script -
"神机".
This old copper block can actually deliver messages and receive tasks ultra-long distance?
What runes or formations are used to achieve this?
Gu Xu felt a little strange, and he had an urge to dismantle it and study its principles.
"In addition, Gu experience," Chu Fengge paused for a moment and continued, "when you are working for the 'Shenji Camp', the 'Shenji Camp' will not treat you badly in terms of welfare. ."
"Benefits?"
Hearing these two words, Gu Xu suddenly became energetic.
Shenji Camp sounds so high-end, its benefits must also be extraordinary, right?
I only heard Chu Fengge’s introduction:
“First of all, as a reservist of the ‘Shenji Battalion’, you are eligible to receive a martial arts unique to the treasure trove of the Exorcist Division’s capital city headquarters. Or spells. I will give you the catalog later, and you can choose the one that suits you best."
Gu Xu nodded, looking forward to this.
Although he was quite powerful among the first-level monks, he always felt that he relied too much on spells during battles.
The destructive power of the spell is indeed powerful.
But its flaw is also obvious - that is, before every battle, Gu Xu needs to spend a lot of time drawing symbols in advance to prepare.
If he encounters an emergency and does not have enough talismans with him, he will be in trouble.
Therefore, for Gu Xu, expanding combat methods is a top priority.
This benefit of the "Shenji Camp" is simply a timely blessing for him.
“Second, in order to train the actual combat skills of the reserve members of the 'Shenji Battalion', three saint-level powerhouses, the Chief of Staff, the Grand Master of Qi, and Duke Yan, have worked together in recent months to create 'Realm of Discussing the Tao'," Chu Fengge continued, "'Realm of Discussing the Tao' is a special illusion that can randomly match two practitioners of the same realm to compete in skills
"With the Divine Machine Token in your hand, you can enter the 'Realm of Taoism' in the form of divine consciousness anywhere in Daqi.
“Each quarter, the Exorcist Department will rank the monks who have entered the ‘Realm of Discussing the Tao’ based on the outcome. Those at the top will receive additional rewards.
“However, Because there are not many people who have the Shenji Token now, the 'Realm of Taoism' is only opened on the first and fifteenth day of every month. ”
Gu Xu looked down at the magic token in his hand, and couldn't help but complain in his heart: Isn't this the 1v1 matching battle in the previous game?
At the same time, Gu Xu was extremely shocked by the terrifying strength of the "Saint" strong man to create a large-scale illusion across the country.
"Saint" refers to the seventh realm monk.
Because once you enter the seventh realm, you can shed your mortal body, reshape your body, establish your own path, and become a family.
This is "transcendence into the holy".
It is also the goal that Gu Xu has been striving for throughout his life.
Of course, this goal is still too far away.
For the time being, he only plans to defeat as many competitors as possible in the "Realm of Taoism", get a good ranking, and try to collect more practice resources from the Exorcism Department headquarters. In addition, he also considered using opponents of the same realm as guinea pigs to test newly developed spells and spells.
Chu Fengge paused for a few minutes, then continued to introduce to Gu Xu:
"The third benefit is related to the famous Laoshan relics in Jiaodong Province.
"You may have heard before that in the first year of Tianxing, that is, twenty-three years ago, Kongxuan Sanren ascended to Laoshan and became a saint. Fairy.
“The cave where he practiced and lived is also located in Laoshan—it is said that there is a legacy he left there.
“Three months later, the cave of Kongxuan Sanren will be opened.
“By that time, all preparatory members of the Shenji Battalion within Jiaodong Province will be eligible to explore there.
"As for what kind of opportunities you get there, and whether you can get the inheritance of the Ascending Immortal, it all depends on you."
The inheritance of the Ascending Immortal...
Hearing from Chu When Feng Ge said this, Gu Xu's expression did not change, but his heart was filled with ups and downs.
In Dahuang, there are nine realms of practice.
Seven realms are holy, nine realms become immortals.
As long as practitioners in the ninth realm successfully survive the thunder tribulation, they can escape from the boundless sea of suffering in the human world and ascend to the legendary fairyland, where they will live forever and remain young.
That is a realm that Gu Xu currently only dares to look up to, but does not dare to aspire to.
And the Kongxuan Sanren of Laoshan is also a mythical existence in his eyes.
Master Chen Jisheng has always felt pessimistically that, despite all his efforts, it would be difficult for Gu Xu to reach the seventh realm before the age of thirty and extend his short lifespan.
But the word "immortal" is undoubtedly synonymous with "miracle".
If Gu Xu can get the opportunity left by the immortal, he might have a chance to change his destiny and achieve this seemingly impossible goal.
At this moment, Gu Xu couldn't help but sigh deeply, it was so worth it to join this "Magic Camp"!
…………
“Okay, Gu experience, there are only so many benefits you can enjoy now,” Chu Fengge suddenly spoke, interrupting Gu Xu’s chaotic thoughts, "Work hard in the future! Don't let down the Chief Executive's expectations of you!"
"I will not disappoint the Chief Executive!" Gu Xu stood up with a calm and firm tone.
Unknowingly, his self-proclaimed position changed from "a humble position" to a "lower official".
That was the change of his identity from "official" to "official".
At this time, Chu Fengge took out a lottery tube from somewhere and shook it gently in front of his eyes, making a clattering sound.
At the same time, he said:
“The members of the Shenji Battalion are all codenamed after ancient mythical beasts, symbolizing doing justice for heaven and protecting peace.
"Gu experience, since you have decided to become a reserve member of the 'Shenji Battalion', come and draw a code name for yourself!"
Hearing this, Gu Xu walked straight to him and reached out from the lottery tube. He randomly drew a lot.
On the tag were two words neatly written:
"Suzaku."
After a moment, red flames burst out from the tag, and then turned into ashes. .
On the back of the "Divine Machine Token" in Gu Xu's hand, there is an embossed pattern of a Suzaku.
