Xia Yanzhen specially put on the Mirror of Reality, and in the void outside the tempering mountain peak before his eyes, massive crosses were born, soaring into the sky.
More purifying crosses and blades of light are like falling rain, filling every corner around.
As Xia Yanzhen moves the Book of Sacred Purification.
The cross blade of light crazily tears apart every inch of space around it, and together with the piercing cross, it forms a super large-scale attack with no room for hiding.
After Xia Yanzhen closed the Book of Sacred Purification, one after another, seemingly never-ending attacks all over the sky turned into light spots and disappeared.
The pages did not return and simply dissipated, having no impact on the Book of Sacred Purification.
"There are also super large-scale attacks." Xia Yanzhen put away the sacred crown and the sacred book of purification.
Just from the perspective of damage range and destructive power, the superposition of the two is definitely the "strongest damage" that Xia Yanzhen currently possesses.
However, they themselves are not affected by Xia Yanzhen.
When encountering extraordinary power, it will be resisted and offset.
In terms of fighting against the extraordinary and abnormal, he still cannot compare with Xia Yanzhen.
After a brief test of the "combined power" of the Holy Crown and the Holy Book of Purification, Xia Yanzhen did not leave and directly entered the tempering state.
In the last mission world, he got a lot of Dream Stones (middle), which can be spent not only in the mission world.
Also enough for real-world daily use between tasks.
When the next mission starts, Xia Yanzhen plans to keep five Dream Stones (middle) as backup.
The rest is all used for self-discipline.
The place of training is similar to a "spiritual time room". It is not just gravity, but all-round pressure.
So far, Xia Yan’s real improvement is still not small.
Counting from the time Xia Yanzhen returned, more than half a month has passed.
Tie Xin told Xia Yanzhen that the court will officially open this Sunday and the Mei family, father and son, and the driver who took the blame will be sentenced.
On Sunday morning, Xia Yanzhen and Tao E arrived at the court hearing.
The trial was not open to the public, and only relevant personnel were present.
Xia Yanzhen saw a large number of middle-aged and even elderly couples, with expressions ranging from numb to haggard to angry.
These people should be the family members of the person who was killed by Mei Wenle.
In addition to the families of the victims, people from the Mei family were also present. One of them was wearing a peaked cap, sunglasses and a bag, and was dressed up so that he could not tell his appearance.
However, the identity is still clear.
Mei Lin's eldest son, Mei Xuancheng, is different from his younger brother Mei Wenle. This man belongs to the elite and leader of the second generation.
He has been involved in the management affairs of Tianpeng Group many years ago.
After Mei Lin Rongdang is imprisoned, he will become the new helmsman of Tianpeng Group. From the current point of view, Mei Xuancheng should be a qualified helmsman and will not let the giant ship of Tianpeng Group sink.
As all personnel arrived, the trial officially began.
The driver was tried first. The lawyer did not give any redundant defense and confessed to all crimes. He was sentenced to five years in prison for harboring the crime.
Next is Merlin.
Merlin had white hair, and his body could no longer maintain its upright posture. In just half a month, he had aged by more than ten years.
From the original appearance of being in his early forties to the appearance of being in his sixties or seventies.
The lawyer did not defend himself.
In the end, Merlin was sentenced to nine years in prison for harboring the crime, which was close to the maximum limit.
Merlin gave up his appeal in court.
After he was taken away, it was Mei Wenle's turn.
Compared to Merlin, who is more than ten years older, Mei Wenle's condition looks better, except that his eyes are silent and his beard has not been shaved for many days, which looks very obvious.
Mei Wenle's crime is not the crime of harboring.
For multiple intentional murders, the evidence was sufficient, multiple crimes were punished concurrently, and he was directly sentenced to death and deprived of political rights for life.
During the whole process, the defense lawyer said nothing for fear of causing unnecessary complications.
With the sound of a hammer falling.
There was a burst of suppressed crying in the room. Xia Yan really had no expression, and he didn't even feel much in his heart.
Mei Wenle has no special place in his heart.
His death was an explanation to his parents, and it was something that had to be done.
But it has never been Xia Yanzhen's only goal in life, nor will he have a great revenge. His life will be lonely, empty and cold, and he can feel like he can retreat to the mountains and forests.
After the trial is over, Mei Wenle will be taken away, sentenced in the morning, and shot directly in the afternoon.
Never delay.
After all, Xia Yanzhen still has class on Monday.
At this moment, Mei Wenle, who had been dumbfounded, suddenly burst into laughter. After confirming the death penalty, he broke the jar and threw it, intending to indulge in ridicule.
Zuo Zhong, who was next to him, immediately raised his hand, and a chain appeared from his palm, wrapping around Mei Wenle's head and gagging her mouth tightly. The laughter that had just come out suddenly stopped.
Not only that, the chains also tied Mei Wenle's body, causing him to struggle twice and then fall straight to the ground, twisting like a caterpillar and unable to stand up.
As a transcendent, Mei Wenle will definitely be on guard against him.
It is impossible for him to resist, disrupt the trial, and cause unnecessary accidents.
Mei Wenle was soon forcibly dragged away.
The quiet and depressing court hearing ended and people began to leave one after another.
Xia Yanzhen and the others also stood up and left.
As soon as I walked out of the door and walked on the aisle, I heard a voice from behind.
"Mr. Xia, please stay."
Xia Yanzhen, Tao E and the others turned around and saw Mei Xuancheng walking quickly, taking off his hat, sunglasses and mask as he walked.
"I'm really sorry about your parents..."
Walking up to Xia Yanzhen, Mei Xuancheng bent down and lowered his head.
Because of the deaths of Destiny and others, the existence of "Xia Shiyi" attracted widespread attention, and the confidentiality of Xia Yanzhen's identity was immediately enhanced.
After Mei Xuancheng's investigation, he could only confirm that the family's sudden disaster was due to the young man in front of him.
And this person's identity is a transcendent, with great strength and potential, and he is also the legendary "Apostle of Dreams".
Therefore, the investigation of the old past can be restarted.
As a result, it happened that Mei Wenle, a bastard, committed a crime outside and implicated his father, Mei Lin.
Although Xia Yanzhen's more important identity could not be found out, these alone, as well as the official battle, were enough to make Mei Xuancheng bow his head.
"Oh." Xia Yanzhen responded indifferently, which was regarded as acceptance, "Is there anything else?"
"About compensation..." Mei Xuancheng straightened up and took a step forward and whispered.
Xia Yanzhen gave him a strange look: "Isn't there compensation already?"
If he remembered correctly, the compensation seemed to be two million.
"I mean extra." Mei Xuancheng said.
"No need." Xia Yanzhen shook his head. He was not short of money and it would be easy to make money in the future. He had no interest in the Mei family's money.
I won’t refuse the compensation I deserve, and I won’t want more.
After rejecting the offer, Xia Yanzhen turned around and left without giving Mei Xuancheng any more chance to speak.
Looking at the backs of several people leaving, Mei Xuancheng did not persist. He stood there and whispered: "The Transcendent..."
After this incident, Mei Xuancheng completely realized that those who transcend are the future!
Without becoming a transcendent or truly mastering the relevant power, all wealth and social status will be nothing but sand sculptures on the beach and castles in the air.
When the waves hit or the wind blows, it will turn into nothingness.
Zheng Guo's situation is not yet clear, but in the outside world, many former rich people have withdrawn from the stage or even "accidentally died" due to various inexplicable reasons.
New people continue to rise to the top, and those "new people" are either transcenders or have inextricable relationships with transcenders, and exist as their spokespersons.
Of course, there are also many original "old aristocrats" who quickly combined with the transcendents to form a new, more powerful class.
The situation in Zhengguo will not be so obvious.
But when he really touched it, Mei Xuancheng suddenly realized the fragility and powerlessness of being an ordinary person.
Just like those ordinary people in the past faced him.
And if you want to become a transcendent, you must master that extraordinary power.
For Mei Xuancheng, there is actually a completely certain path that is right in front of him, and that is to become the "Apostle of Dreams."
But as a desperate mercenary, the Dream Apostle has to pay a huge price.
It's hard to make up your mind.
Once you become an apostle of dreams, you will enter a path of no return.
No one can guarantee that they can survive forever and become stronger along the way.
Mei Xuancheng's palms gradually clenched into fists, and he watched Xia Yanzhen and the others completely disappear from sight.
——
"boom!"
"boom!"
Several consecutive gunshots, finally ending with Zuo Zhong's chain, ensured the death of Mei Wenle, the transcendent.
Not far away, Xia Yanzhen watched the final trial.
"How are you doing? How do you feel?" Tao E next to him asked.
The dust has completely settled.
"I don't feel anything, I just did something I had to do." Xia Yanzhen said, "There is still a long way to go."
"Ha, that's good to think about it this way." Tao E said with a smile, "I'm a little worried about you just 'retiring to the mountains and forests'."
"It's not like martial arts." Xia Yanzhen smiled and said, "I have to go to pay homage tonight, so I'm going back first."
"Well, we'll send it to you."
After returning to Hanling City, Xia Yanzhen went to the cemetery first and paid homage in front of his parents' graves before returning home.
For the next half month, he still stayed in Hanling City and went to school peacefully.
The Gregorian New Year is getting closer and closer.
The struggling students in the senior year of high school were looking forward to the one-day New Year's Day holiday, but Xia Yanzhen didn't feel much at all.
Before the arrival of the new year, he has already ushered in new tasks.
On Saturday night, before going to bed, Xia Yanzhen used to count the equipment and props he owned.
There are still five pieces of Dream Stone (medium) intact, while the Dream Stone (small) has been replenished to fifty pieces.
in case for need.
In terms of weapons: Burning Blood Sword, Qingyun, Pride, and Cursed Spirit Bone Blade, a total of four are used as primary and secondary weapons.
Equipment that can be regarded as weapons: Face of Calamity Fire, Book of Divine Purification.
Equipment that is more defensive in nature: Prisoner of Darkness, Scabbard of Green Wood and Dark Dragon Boots.
The rest are auxiliary equipment and props: Holy Crown, Burning Throne, Wrath of the Sun, Observation Mirror, Mirror of Reality, Ghost Shooting DV, The Failed Incarnation of the Son of God Mother, and Desire Angel’s Advent Body, which have never been used.
Battle memory, antidote pill, hemostatic gauze and the most powerful badge (two pieces).
In addition, Tiamat also has some equipment: Time of Chaos, Sage's Bracers (storage bracers), lucky dice, and Lin Nan's battle memory to save lives.
After the inventory and preparations were completed, Xia Yanzhen was fully dressed except for his shoes, lay down and fell asleep with his clothes on.
A raindrop fell on the head.
Xia Yanzhen opened his eyes and saw a dark and gloomy sky with raindrops falling continuously.
He sat up, took out the Dark Dragon boots and put them on, and looked at the mission information that appeared:
【Kill the Mermaid Princess】
[Task reward: five dream stones (medium)]
[Task time limit: two natural months.]
[Penalty for failure: obliteration!]
[Cooperation scenario: The team must not forget that they have entered the mission world at the same time, and there will be no rewards for fighting with each other. The public speech channel has been opened (10/10), and the number of speeches will not increase. 】
Kill the Mermaid Princess, cooperative scene.
The penalty for failure is still erasure.
Judging from the available information, the task itself is probably not too difficult, otherwise the failure penalty would not be so severe.
Xia Yanzhen took a look at the partner this time, and it was called Don't lose, don't forget.
A team that he has never heard of - well, to the extent of his ignorance, he has never heard of most of the team's names.
Judging from the name, it should be a team composed of Zhengguo people.
Although the translation of God's Dream has always been very faithful and elegant, it does not mean to directly translate the foreign teams into "Don't miss and never forget".
[Don’t forget: Is he the boss of the legendary adventure group and brigade? This is our first level three mission, please give me a hug. We are not very lucky. The place we appeared is a small island.
I feel a bit unlucky, um, I’m building a raft now.]
Xia Yanzhen opened the public channel and saw Mo Shi Mo Wang's speech.
He didn't reply immediately, he looked at his surroundings.
Not only was Mo Shi Mo Forget unlucky, Xia Yanzhen's location was also a small isolated island.
The total area does not exceed one thousand square meters, and you can see everything at a glance.
In the distance is the rough sea in a storm.
There was lightning and thunder, huge raindrops kept falling from the sky, and the waves crashed on the shore, feeling like they could destroy this small island directly.
"It would not be good if this mission was carried out in the sea." Xia Yanzhen glanced at the sea and thought to himself.
I hope I don’t have to go into the sea to kill the fish princess.
"Xiaohong, where are you?" Xia Yanzhen asked in the team channel.
There is no sign of Tiamat on the island, and I don't know where it was thrown.
"The sea will come out soon." Tiamat replied. After a while, the sea surface was not calm at all, causing bigger waves, and Tiamat rushed out of the sea.
The huge wings opened, and a bolt of thunder fell down, connecting the sky and the sea, forming a white light behind it.
It's a pity that only one audience member, Xia Yanzhen, saw this astonishing scene.
And feel nothing about it.
Xia Yanzhen put on his hood, and the Dark Prisoner's thick and wide coat completely blocked out the rain.
Even if the strong wind blows, it will only make the hem of the clothes shake a little.
Tiamat flew over and hovered above Xia Yanzhen's head, her wings spread out, and her huge body shielded him from the wind and rain.
"Did you find anything in the sea?" Xia Yanzhen asked.
Mermaid Princess, Xia Yan is really not sure what the connection is between the fairy tales he knows.
"Not yet, but this ocean gives me an indescribable feeling. It's very uncomfortable. There is an inexplicable sense of threat, and I want to stay away." Tiamat said.
As a special and unique Nether Red Dragon, the marine environment has little impact on it.
This sea makes Tiamat uncomfortable, which is not good news.
"Let's look for the mainland first. I hope this mission will not really take place in the sea." Xia Yanzhen said to Tiamat.
Tiamat flew up into the storm.
Soon, it brought back some news, and they were all good news.
First of all, their location was not far from the mainland. Tiamat flew in a certain direction for a while and discovered the vast coastline.
At the level of a third-level Dream Apostle, he could use local materials to make a raft. Even in such a stormy environment, he could still struggle from the island to the mainland.
The second piece of good news is that Tiamat discovered five people on another isolated island. Not surprisingly, they all forgot about them, but it did not come into contact with them.
The third news was that Tiamat had discovered a wrecked ship, and the wreckage was on the shore.
Near the ship, there is a sole survivor.
Everyone else should have been swallowed up by the violent sea.
The reason why the third news is considered good news is because this scene is very similar to the scene in the fairy tale-The Daughter of the Sea.
The ship the prince was traveling on was wrecked by a storm.
The mermaid princess rescued the prince and brought him to the shore.
If this is really the direction of the fairy tale, as long as you find the prince and stay with him, you can wait and wait for the mermaid princess to come to complete the task.
However, Tiamat has not been able to find any traces related to the mermaid princess yet.
"Then let's go to the survivor who is suspected of being the 'prince' and try our luck." Xia Yanzhen said, opening the public chat channel and pointing out the direction for Mo Shi Mo Wang.
We will meet on the shore when the time comes.
As a third-level apostle, if you can't even overcome this difficulty, you might as well find someone to kill you as soon as possible.
Even if you are swimming, you still have to swim to the shore.
Xia Yan really has no interest in taking care of children as a nanny.
Don't forget, you will naturally not be disappointed. After Xia Yanzhen provided clear directions, he expressed his gratitude and immediately started preparing to cross the sea.
This storm will not last long and will not be an obstacle to them.
Don't forget to know that if they really can't get to the shore, they can't expect the brigade to provide more help.
