Chapter 404 Daxias top management has a headache! (Third update, 12,000, please
subscription!)
In the early morning of the fortieth day after the opening of the Nine Paths Endgame, Shen Zhui successfully returned to Shangqiu City and moved into the Zhonggeng Mansion in the west city. A bronze cauldron was added to the mansion, the growth of the Lake of Luck accelerated, and the Lotus Heart of Luck took root.
In one morning, Shen Zhui absorbed four true text talisman edicts.
Since the powers of the True Text Talisman are all chosen to have unified attributes, Shen Zhui's dragon-patterned golden sword was further strengthened.
Within 10,000 meters, you can teleport and attack.
The fourth level of the best magic weapon, one stab can break it!
At this time, the Dragon Pattern Golden Sword has reached the bottleneck of advancing to the Holy Word.
On the same day, Shen Zhui traveled in a dragon-horse chariot. The people in the West City shouted for Lord, which attracted the attention of the adventurers in Shangqiu City. However, no one knew Shen Zhui's true identity.
At noon, Shen chased to the young master's house and went to see the young master, Yan Hui.
The number of soldiers under Shen Zhui's command increased to 1,500. Wang Yi, the commander of the left concubine, and Zhang Liang, the commander of the right concubine, became Shen Zhui's direct subordinates. The 1,500 men included 1,000 Lingqiao Peak and 500 second-level supernatural powers. .
The commander-in-chief Yan Hui issued a new order: the commander-in-chief Shen Zhui went to the west city wall, strengthened his troops and horses, led the city to defend the city, quelled the bandits, established the eighteenth line of defense of the royal city, and guarded Pingyang Pass.
On the 41st day, the dragon-horse chariot led 1,500 people and 250 imperial guardsmen to travel, stayed at Pingyang Pass, opened a seal and settled the palace, and became the actual controller of the thousand-mile radius of Pingyang Pass.
On the 42nd day, Zhongdafu Shen Zhui ordered his left concubine chief, right concubine chief, public chariot...all the Lingqiao Realm combat power to assemble, and gathered five thousand people!
On the fiftieth day, Shen Zhui, who had completed his reorganization, began a carpet sweep from the east of Pingyang Pass to eradicate the two major scourges of the 'Black Wind Demon' and the 'High Mountain Bandit'.
On the 60th, when Shen Zhui's troops were cleaning up to the middle of Pingyang Pass, something unexpected happened. Black wind demons and mountain bandits frequently caused trouble from the east and west at the same time, guerrillas everywhere, forcing Shen Zhui's troops to split into two groups.
On the 65th, Shen Zhui, who was divided into two groups, suffered a major defeat. Zhang Liang, the right concubine commander, rushed in greedily and was surrounded and attacked by the Black Wind Demon King. One of the fifth officers was seriously injured, and 573 people were killed or injured. The rest, led by the right concubine Zhang Liang, fought and retreated, and fled to Fengyangguo in the east to join Shen Zhui's headquarters.
Shen Zhui was furious and immediately sentenced the right concubine Zhang Liang to death. At the same time, he ordered the left concubine Wang Yi to take over the remaining soldiers and continue to attack the Gaoshan bandits.
The deity then drove the Ruyi Warship to Guanshan Ridge, gathered up the remaining troops, and used the holy words of medicine "Resurrection from the Dead" to finally reduce the losses to the lowest point, with only one hundred and eighty-nine people lost.
On the 66th, Shen Zhui issued a mobilization order, ordering all civilians and families outside Pingyang Pass to station themselves in the Pingyang Pass magic circle. At the same time, the walls were fortified and the fields were cleared, and all supplies were burned, especially the special resource [Wind Spirit Grass] that the Black Wind Demon liked to plunder. ].
The officers and men under his command tried to dissuade him one after another, saying that this move would 'jeopardize the peace of the world'. When the news spread to the east, the morale of the troops was scattered, and their fear of war increased.
Shen Zhui issued three orders in a row.
Those who advance to remonstrate and then retreat will be killed without mercy!
On the 67th, Major General Yan Hui sent his own soldiers to reprimand Shen Zhui for his policy of "strengthening the walls and clearing the wilderness". Shen Zhui refused by saying, "The generals are out, and military orders are followed and not obeyed."
Two hundred and fifty imperial guardsmen withdrew from Shangqiu City that day.
On the 70th, Shen Zhui led the charge to the high mountain bandit's lair. After three days of fierce fighting, it was destroyed. More than 8,000 high mountain bandits were all beheaded. The bandit leader "High Mountain King" was chased for three thousand miles by Shen Zhui, and finally died in the God of Annihilation. Under the artillery fire, the banditry in the east was put down.
On the seventy-fifth day, Shen Zhui's efforts to clear the wilderness began to bear fruit. Due to the lack of [Wind Spirit Grass] supplement, the Black Wind Demon's overall strength dropped by 30%.
After another ten days, the Black Wind Demon King finally couldn't bear it anymore and began to gather tens of thousands of demons to attack Pingyang Pass.
Major Commander Yan Hui redeployed 250 Royal City Imperial Guards to Shen Zhui's command to assist Pingyang Pass, and added an additional 250 Imperial City Imperial Guards and 20 formation masters to assist in defending the city.
On the ninety-first day, Shen Zhui went out of the city and designed to lure the Black Wind Demon King away from the demon tide formation. The Black Wind Demon King led twelve high-level magical forces to pursue him.
On the 95th, in Guanshan Ridge, Douzhan King Kong and the two-headed dragon eagle fought fiercely against the Black Wind Demon King. With the cooperation of twenty silver-armored forbidden troops, Shen Zhui used his seven clones to use the Five Elements God Formation, and successfully trapped the Black Wind Demon. He stayed there for one second, unable to move. I seized the opportunity and ordered the black and white guards to fire the second God-Destroying Cannon.
The Black Wind Demon King was seriously injured and fled, and the twelve leading demons were killed.
Shen Zhui ordered the Imperial Army to pursue him and returned to Pingyang Pass to take charge.
In the early morning of the next day, Shen Zhui was seriously injured and died of the Black Wind Demon King. The Black Wind Demon completely collapsed and turned into ashes overnight and disappeared without a trace.
At this point, the two major disasters in Pingyang Pass and Qianli have been completely eliminated, and all the mission difficulties have been solved!
On the 96th, Shen Zhui used the 120,000 silver knives he had accumulated for a long time to purchase a large amount of supplies for the people, and began to rebuild Qianli Pingyang Pass to provide livelihood for the people.
…………
Daxia Academy, the silver earth in the chaotic space.
In a unique high tower pavilion.
There is a huge long table here, and on fifty tall chairs, there are figures wearing Confucian uniforms sitting.
The only difference is that their crowns and robes do not have a dragon as their honor, but a phoenix bathing in fire as a cultivator.
Above the long table, there is a blue crystal ball. The crystal ball has countless facets, displays countless pictures, and is rotating rapidly.
At a certain moment, the countless sections of these crystal balls all reveal the same picture.
In the picture, there is a man wearing black armor and green armor standing on the city wall holding a sword, while below, there are countless black wind demons attacking the city like a tide...
"Everyone, this is the whole process of Shen Zhui completing the mission of 'Pingyang Pass'." An old man with white hair and beard said in a deep voice. He was none other than Venerable Jialan, one of the leaders of Daxia Academy.
Venerable Jialan glanced at the others and said slowly: "In less than a hundred days, he completed thirty-six tasks at Pingyang Pass, including three fifteen-level tasks and two sixteenth-level tasks. "
"The rating of each mission is no less than medium. The two level 16 missions 'Black Wind Demon' and 'Alpine Bandit' are rated high by me."
"According to the rules, he can use this to become a sixteenth-level Daliangzao. However, the highest of the four royal cities and twelve prefectural cities is only a twelve-level right guard. I am sitting in Shangqiu City, and I really don't know how to give an order now. , how to improve his merits, I leave it to you, your Lordships, to decide."
As soon as these words came out, countless divine thoughts were secretly stirring in the space, obviously communicating with each other.
Dozens of eyes drifted towards the spherical section, constantly showing Shen Zhui's actions and decisions back and forth.
Lord Jialan could feel that these people were shocked by Shen Zhui's stunning performance, just like his own expression when he discovered it before.
Pingyang Pass implies many big tasks, but there are also many difficulties.
First of all, the two major bandits, the Black Wind Demon and the Mountain Bandit, both can explode into ninth-level magical powers at critical moments.
Moreover, he has a lot of troops under his command. Although it is in the early stage and has not reached its peak state, the difficulty is not the least bit difficult.
It was originally expected that the banditry in these two places would break out completely after two years and be noticed by the adventurers. At that time, both places would have combat power comparable to that of the Venerable, and the little demon would also be as strong as Go to the next level.
However, before it was fully formed, the mission was activated by Shen Zhui.
There are many difficulties in the mission, and the biggest ones include "accidents" such as attacks from two ends, popular unrest, military morale collapse, subordinates advancing rashly, superiors stopping them, etc.
An all-round test of a general's wisdom, decisiveness, and bravery.
The penalties for failure of these tasks are very high. Originally, some buffer measures were set up for this link.
For example, when the number of adventurers reaches a certain level, the punishment will be equally divided. A three-level downgrade will become a one-level downgrade, and there may even be a chance to atone for one's deeds.
The fewer people there are, the greater the risk and the stronger the punishment. The purpose of this is to prevent a small group of adventurers from joining together, gaining a lot of merit, and crushing the rest of the adventurers.
However, it has now been completed by Shen Zhui! There are only ten adventurers participating in this large-scale mission! And they are also some insignificant low-level officials.
Now, it's the turn of Daxia's top brass to make trouble.
The rules of Daxia Dongtian have existed since ancient times. This real secret realm with many profound meanings is a world of its own, and they can only make small changes and influences.
According to the rule that the greater the risk, the greater the reward, now is the time to reward Shen Zhui.
However……
Once the original rewards are paid out, Shen Zhui will become a sixteenth-level Daliangzao, and will also gain a very powerful magical power of the Holy Word! For other adventurers, it will be the same as being the best in the world!
By grasping this leading position, it can be expected that it will be difficult for other adventurers to catch up with Shen Zhui.
This put great pressure on Daxia Academy.
Venerable Jialan did not dare to make decisions easily.
After waiting for a while, someone finally spoke, but it was a burly man with no eyebrows and a red face.
"Jialan, what's so difficult about this?" the eyebrowless brawny man said in a thunderous voice. "The rules are all there. Since Shen Zhui has completed the Pingyang Pass mission, you can reward him according to the rules."
When Venerable Jialan saw someone replying to him, and speaking so lightly, he immediately smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Wumei, this is the truth."
"But once I give out this reward, I'm afraid it will create an unprecedented pervert, and Shen Zhui will have the final say in the entire second level."
"With such a big gap, we can't reveal the details of Shen Zhui. I'm afraid it won't be easy to respond to the rumors from the outside world."
"Jialan's worries are not unreasonable." A cold old man in black robe said sneerly. "If it continues, this pursuit may destroy the balance between adventurers. If there is a final war between the two worlds, let him take the victory alone. If I get all the rewards, I’m afraid the others won’t be satisfied.”
"In my opinion, Shen Zhui should be given a failing grade again on the [Shangguan Accountability] task and the 'Strengthening the Wall and Clearing the Wilderness'! Huh! What, the general will obey and fail to obey the military orders abroad... That's nonsense! This man is too ambitious. I think that Shen Zhui’s actions in these two missions are not in line with loyalty and righteousness. I propose that Shen Zhui be lowered to the first level of official rank and the eldest officer be demoted to the twelfth level."
As soon as this statement came out, many people present frowned.
Although they also felt that Shen Zhui had destroyed the balance, this result was a bit excessive.
Among them, the eyebrowless burly man suddenly became angry. He slammed the table and shouted at the cold old man in black robe: "Leng Jue, have your eyeballs been eaten by dogs?"
"In this case, you actually gave advice on lowering the price instead of raising it?"
"Hmph, I think you're avenging yourself because Shen Zhui is Lu Yuanwei's disciple, right? Fifty years ago, Lu Yuanwei penetrated your heart. Did it affect your eyes?"
Suddenly there was a burst of suppressed laughter from the side. As the saying goes, you don’t slap someone in the face when you hit someone, and you don’t expose someone’s shortcomings when you scold someone. This guy was good, he specifically focused on the shortcomings of Venerable Leng Jue.
"Absurd!" A trace of anger flashed in Leng Jue's eyes, and he was not to be outdone. "I'm just discussing the matter, Wu Mei, don't bite me randomly!"
"Now that I have become a venerable man, Lu Yuanwei is still only in the realm of supernatural power. I won't care about him, so how can I make things difficult for his disciples? This act of pursuing him is indeed against the moral principles of Daxia. In order not to affect the general Daxia, Why should Xia's reputation be judged like this?"
"This is another bastard statement!" Venerable Wumei snorted coldly. "Just because I have no disputes with the world in Daxia does not mean that I surrender to all forces. When does Daxia Academy have to consider what explanations should be given to others when doing things? ?”
"Furthermore, Daxia Dongtian was left by our ancestors. Anyone who follows the rules, whether he becomes a prince or becomes a king, all depends on his ability, and future generations cannot stop him. Do you want to violate this rule?"
Venerable Leng Jue's expression changed, he shook his sleeves and snorted coldly: "I'm too lazy to argue with such a messy person like you. Anyway, that's what I just said."
"Okay." Venerable Jialan quickly smoothed things over. "Leng Jue, Wu Mei, let's discuss it and let everyone come up with ideas. It's not that serious. Our ancestors also said that we can handle it as appropriate."
"Hmph, that's my opinion just now. According to the law, Shen Zhui's title will be promoted to Daliangzao. Even if he has a chance to attack the position of Chehou in the future and obtain the inheritance of the ancestors, that's his ability! The others are incompetent, then It's unfair to complain!" After the Venerable Wu Mei finished speaking, he remained silent.
"Since there are objections to this matter, let's vote according to the old rules." Venerable Jialan said. "Since I am in charge of Shangqiu City, I will vote first. My opinion is to keep the original rating unchanged, but additional A little reminder.”
"Seconded."
"Seconded."
"Seconded."
"..."
After a while, more than half of the people supported Venerable Jialan.
Upon seeing this, Venerable Leng Jue snorted coldly and disappeared directly from his seat.
After the final decision was made, Lord Jialan nodded with a smile and disappeared from his seat.
…………
Pingyangguan, in the official mansion.
Shen Zhui, who was practicing in the government palace, suddenly heard the sound of rules.
"Zhongdafu Shen Zhui, completed the Pingyang Pass mission, made outstanding achievements, and was promoted to Daliangzhao!"
"The rewards are as follows..."
"What's going on?" Shen Zhui was a little confused. He found that this time the rewards were similar to those in the first level, and the whole place was notified with the voice of rules.
