Early in the morning.
A golden light appeared in the sky of Shi Haishan City, and the sky gradually brightened.
Hayashi River sat in the hall of his residence, drinking the [Sea Giant Potion] while looking at the sky outside the window. A ray of sunlight shone on his face, giving him an inexplicable expression.
In the corner of the hall, the Blue Kitty was lying on a soft cushion, sleeping soundly.
The little girl was resting in their respective rooms. From time to time, there was a sound coming from their rooms, indicating that they were not asleep.
Last night, after returning from the secret room, the little girl, Laknia, once again tried to carry the Blue Kitty to sleep, but was mercilessly rejected by the little girl again.
The little blue cat said that it did not have the habit of sleeping with other creatures except its master.
In this regard, Hayashi River secretly sneered. This little guy used to like to be intimate with beautiful girls the most, but after its body mutated, he was worried that the huge half of its body would appear in its sleep, so he refused to let this little guy enjoy the joy of a cat life.
As for Dusk, he dutifully took on the role of a bodyguard. Before Lin Chuan rested, he would never sleep.
Of course, because of the [Activated Body], Dusk could not sleep for seven days and seven nights in a row, maintaining a high-intensity battle, and maintaining extremely vigorous energy under the exhaustion of his body.
Then, he would choose a time to sleep for eight hours, and he would be able to replenish his energy for a week.
Hayashi River was quite envious of the [Activated Body] talent. He would not be able to concentrate for three days and three nights at most.
"How is that child..."
Hayashi River asked Mossy Bone in a low voice. He was referring to the other gifted creature that was taken in in Davo King City.
There was a sizzling sound in the earpiece, and Mossy Bone said, "Very good, that little guy's progress is faster than you and I expected. Perhaps, in less than two years, he will be able to surpass Dusk in terms of combat power. This is the strength of a pure gifted creature. Dusk still has a flaw after all... "
At this point, Mossy Bone sighed, feeling sorry for what happened.
Hayashi River did not speak. It was unknown whether Dusk's missing heart could be found.
Even if the Dark Net was eradicated in the future, even if there were clues to the heart, it would be difficult to keep it intact after so many years.
Just then, Mossy Bone's voice came through the earpiece. "Do you really want to deal with the Shi family? They're a force with a Realm Eight cultivator, one of the most powerful forces in the Northern Lands. Are you sure? You've been thinking for the whole night. Do you have a plan? "
Hayashi River poured another vial of [Sea Giant Medicine] and shook the reagent bottle. The sunlight outside the window shone in, reflecting rays of dazzling blue light.
"Sir Mossy Bone, you're mistaken. I'm not here to deal with the Shi Family. I'm here to get my hands on the latest research progress on the [Earth King Armament] and a sample from them. These are two different things. The former requires strength equivalent to a level-eight elite. As for the latter, this is just a deal. We each take what we need. "
"Of course, what the Shi family got might be very different from what they wanted. But by then, we'll have left the Northern Lands. What does it matter? "
"I've been sitting here for the whole night not to think about how to deal with the Shi family, but to think about the structure of the [Seventh Armament] and how to integrate it with the core structure of the [Earth King Armament]."
Hayashi River said.
If he really had to fight a level-eight cultivator head-on, he would never do it. Even if he had the ability to face a level-eight cultivator head-on, he would not do it.
Shi Hulie had an irreconcilable grudge with Bayun and the Centaur Corps, but he did not have a death feud with him.
Hayashi River would not fight a level-eight elite to the death for Bayun. Even if the Majestic Corps had promised him an entire domain as a reward, he would not be willing.
The resources and treasures of a domain were tempting, but his life was more important …
However, obtaining the core information on the [Earth King Armament] from the Shi family was another matter. It involved machinery, and Hayashi River had the detailed information on the [Earth King Armament].
Moreover, with the [Moon Core] in his hands, he would have an absolute advantage in negotiations with the Shi family. This advantage was equivalent to a dimensional strike.
"Moreover, the conflict a few days ago showed that the Shi family has many enemies. The Fire Earth Energy Sect, the Dark Dwarf Corps, and Lord Wolf of Limestone Ridge … These are all potential allies …
"If these powers were to unite, not just the Shi Clan, but the entire Northern Lands would be overturned …"
Hayashi River said calmly. His goal for this trip had never changed. It was to improve the [Seventh Armament] for the blueprint of the [Earth King Armament].
However, with the news of the domain, he naturally had one more target.
As for the grudges between the Northern Lands and the Centaur Corps, he had never cared too much. The survival of the Northern Lands had nothing to do with him.
"You rascal …"
Mossy Bone was speechless. "In history, the Centaur Corps made outstanding contributions to the Eastern Continent during the Hundred Years War, including the war against the Oceanic Beast Army …"
Hayashi River shrugged. "That's why … I helped Bayun. This is also a form of respect for the Centaur Corps. However, I can't help others to the point of sacrificing myself. Your Excellency Mossy Bone, this might be the reason why you became the AI. "
Mossy Bone was silent for a while. He had never explained in detail what happened before and after his death, but with this young Mechanic's sharp senses, he should have guessed most of it.
"Your Excellency Mossy Bone, our common goal is the Black Net. This was our initial agreement, and this has never changed. I will do my best to complete it, "Hayashi River said.
"We've known each other for a long time now. Do you think that I'll believe in your promise?" Mossy Bones snorted coldly. He did not believe in Lin Chuan's promise at all. Based on his understanding of the young machine master, if he ran into danger while fighting against the black net, he might leave without hesitation.
Lin Chuan smiled and nodded in relief. Ever since they got to know each other, Moss Bone had finally changed a little. This was something that the AI itself might not have noticed.
While they were conversing …
A light spot appeared on the sensor goggles, and the electronic voice of the [Moon Core] sounded.
"Owner, I've repaired a part of the core and can temporarily recover.
"My current functions are mainly to perform some simple calculations and consultation. I don't have other related functions at the moment.
"I just scanned your body and mechanical arms. I have a few suggestions that I hope you can listen to."
…
Hayashi River and Mossy Bone were both stunned and interested. As a former core component of the [Earth King Equipment], what suggestions could the [Moon Core] give?
Before Hayashi River could speak, the [Moon Core] continued, "Owner, the techniques, combat skills, and weapons that you're studying are less than 30% compatible with the mechanical arms and the [Seventh Armament] that you're preparing to build. This is very bad."
Hearing this, Hayashi River and Mossy Bone fell silent. If the [Moon Core] was not an AI device, they would have thought that it was lying through its teeth.
Indeed, the [Moon Core] was right about one thing. The techniques, combat skills, and weapons that Hayashi River was currently training were indeed not compatible with the mechanical arms and the future [Seventh Armament].
Hayashi River was very clear about this. After all, his focus had always been on the derivation of the [Windmill Mist Suppression Art], as well as the research and development of mechanical devices and Heart Energy Equipment.
He had once created his own combat skills, but due to lack of time and energy, he had picked the most direct and effective ones to train.
As for the [Scaled Arm], it still needed to be upgraded. To truly be compatible with his body, he would need to become a Master Mechanic and perfect it through the Mechanical Throne.
The other equipment that he had, including the [Seventh Armament], were the same …
The various techniques that Hayashi River had lacked the accumulation of time, so naturally, the compatibility was not good enough.
However, the [Moon Core] did not even have a 30% compatibility. This was something that Hayashi River could not agree with.
From his point of view, he was very familiar with these techniques, so there was at least a 60% compatibility.
"Why 30%? Tell me the reason. "
Hayashi River asked. He did not agree with this, but he really wanted to hear the basis of the [Moon Core].
"According to the incomplete database, the technique that the owner cultivated should be top-notch. However, the connection between each level of the technique is a little weak."
"The true top-notch technique in the world is when each level complements each other. Looking at a single level, it might only be top-notch, but with each level cultivated, there will be a progressive effect. When cultivated to the highest level, it will be a top-notch technique."
"The owner's technique lacks the foundation between each level, so it can only be considered a top-notch technique. It cannot truly be considered a top-notch technique. Moreover, the incomplete database has related records that there are many problems with the subsequent stages of this technique. Even though the owner has modified it and the problems have been greatly improved, the fundamental problem still exists … "
…
Listening to the [Moon Core] talk about the [Windmill Mist Suppression Art] in detail, Hayashi River and Mossy Bone were a little confused.
Hayashi River and Mossy Bone did not refute what the [Moon Core] said. In fact, they listened attentively, because every point that the [Moon Core] said was on the key point.
Hayashi River had deduced the [Windmill Mist Suppression Art] to the fifth level. He already had an idea of the sixth level, but he did not continue to deduce it.
On one hand, his Psychic Force cultivation was still far from the sixth level. After the fifth level, he would have to rely on his own cultivation. Even with the acceleration from the stone ball and the assistance of sufficient medicine, Hayashi River's cultivation speed would still be far slower than when he was in the fifth level.
Hayashi River estimated that he would have to stay in the fifth level for at least two years. If he split his energy, it might take longer.
Therefore, he was not as focused on the deduction of the sixth level as he was before.
On the other hand, just like what the [Moon Core] said, Hayashi River could also sense that there were some obvious bottlenecks in deducing the sixth level from the fifth level of the [Windmill Mist Suppression Art].
These bottlenecks were not because Hayashi River's comprehension was not strong enough, but because he felt that there was something wrong with the fifth level of this cultivation technique. If he deduced the sixth level …
In this regard, Hayashi River thought that his deduction of the [Windmill Mist Suppression Art] was not thorough enough.
Now that the [Moon Core] mentioned this point, Hayashi River immediately understood that it was not that his deduction was not thorough enough, but that there were indeed some problems from the fifth level of this cultivation technique onwards.
At this moment, Mossy Bone suddenly asked, "A supreme cultivation technique? [Moon Core], in your era, was there a so-called supreme cultivation technique? Did the leader of the centaur army of that generation cultivate a supreme cultivation technique? "
The [Moon Core] fell silent, and from time to time, there were buzzing sounds of electric currents. Then, it said, "Owner, it has been detected that this is a powerful intelligent brain. If I can absorb it, it will be enough to restore more than 50% of the core component …"
Immediately, Hayashi River opened his mouth, but he did not know what to say.
Mossy Bone was stunned, and he immediately cursed. The [Moon Core] was only the size of a grain of rice, and it was only a small part of the core component of the [Earth King Armament]. Yet, it wanted to absorb him. It was like an ant trying to eat an elephant. No, it was like an ant trying to swallow a giant dragon.
What an idiot! "Mr. Mossy Bone is my friend. If you speak rudely, you will be swallowed instead …" Hayashi River warned.
The [Moon Core] fell silent again, and from time to time, the buzzing sounds of electric currents could be heard. "I'm sorry! Mr. Mossy Bone, I've put you on the friendly white list. I don't know your relationship with the owner. It's strange that the intelligent brain would be so emotional. I used to … "
Creak …
After a series of buzzing sounds, the [Moon Core] fell silent again. This time, a long time passed. It was so long that Hayashi River and Mossy Bone thought that the [Moon Core] had short-circuited because of the abnormal data.
After a long time …
The [Moon Core]'s voice sounded again. "The data that you just touched is incomplete, so it can't be retrieved. The database needs to be restored to 30% before it can be retrieved."
"Let's get to the point …" Hayashi River changed the topic to the [Windwheel Mist Suppression Technique] again.
"Owner, there are relevant records in the remnant database of the technique that you're cultivating. According to the current timeline, 942 years ago, there was once a human who consulted the complete core, and the complete me carried out the derivation and came up with an imperfect follow-up technique …"
Hayashi River and Mossy Bone were stunned. What the [Moon Core] said was a shocking secret!
It was not a secret that Cromwell had secretly gone to the Northern Land. Hayashi River and Mossy Bone knew that he had dealings with the centaur army.
However, the mnemonic chant for the follow-up cultivation technique of the [Windwheel Mist Suppression Technique] was deduced together with the core of the [Earth King Armament]. This was indeed a shocking secret.
In fact, from the information revealed by the [Moon Core], it could be understood that after the sixth level of this cultivation technique, it was this intelligent brain that had been perfected.
Hayashi River pondered quietly. Inspirations appeared in his mind, and he constantly deduced the [Windwheel Mist Suppression Technique]. The pattern of the eyeball appeared on his forehead, and the pattern of the pendulum on his chest kept spinning. He was deducing and perfecting the first five levels of this cultivation technique.
The [Moon Core]'s reminder gave Hayashi River a lot of inspiration. He had the power of the stone ball. As long as he found a problem, it was not difficult to solve it.
Even if it was a peerless cultivation technique like the [Windwheel Mist Suppression Technique], for Hayashi River, he could find a breakthrough by further perfecting it.
After a moment, Hayashi River frowned. He found that with his martial arts foundation, it would probably take a long time to further perfect the [Windwheel Mist Suppression Technique].
Initially, it would take at least five years …
And this was based on the fact that he had to continuously study martial arts in these five years.
While he was distressed, Mossy Bone exclaimed. He had communicated with the [Moon Core] and found that this intelligent brain had an unfathomable understanding of martial arts.
"No wonder … the centaur army was invincible in the Eastern Continent. The leader of the centaur army was one of the strongest experts in the continent. It was said that no expert dared to confront the leader of the centaur army equipped with the [Earth King Armament] head-on … "
Mossy Bone sighed.
Regarding this rumor, Mossy Bone heard it from Cromwell when he went to the Dead Bones Mossy Tower again.
Cromwell once mentioned that, apart from the leader of the centaur army and the clan leader of the Dragon Clan in the Western Continent, he could single-handedly withstand the most powerful blow of all the experts in the continent.
Given the arrogance of the continent's madman, it was evident how powerful the leader of the centaur army was.
However, the communication with the [Moon Core] made Mossy Bone truly understand how powerful the leader of the centaur army was in the past.
He was an expert at the peak of the Ninth Realm and possessed the [Earth King Armament]. The centaur army was an invincible army with a leader. This was what people thought of the leader of the centaur army at that time.
However, people had a misunderstanding. Because of the glory of the centaur army, they underestimated the strength of its leader.
"During the hundred-year war, I'm afraid the strength of the centaur army's leader was the strongest in martial arts, surpassing that of the clan leader of the Dragon Clan …" Mossy Bone judged.
Hayashi River was shocked but did not speak. In martial arts, he admitted that he was no match for Mossy Bone. Since the latter made such a judgment, it was more or less the same.
"The core of the [Earth King Armament] is probably the smart-brain that is most proficient in combat operations. In terms of martial arts and combat, it far surpasses smart-brains like the Mechanical Throne …" Mossy Bone sighed.
Mossy Bone sighed. After a short conversation with the Moon Core, he felt as if he was communicating with an impeccable Peak Martial Arts expert. The Moon Core's views on all aspects were so precise and to the point.
And this was the [Moon Core] whose database was severely lacking. If it was the complete core of the [Earth King Armament], the centaur leader equipped with this weapon would be able to exert strength beyond his realm.
Combat strength beyond the Ninth Realm?!
In that era, only Cromwell had such combat strength when facing the allied army of the sea beasts of the five seas. Moreover, he had combined martial arts and machinery.
"[Moon Core], how do you think the [Windwheel Suppressing Mist Technique] should be perfected, and how do you deduce the subsequent techniques? Only then can the fundamental problem be solved, "Hayashi River asked directly.
"Due to the lack of the core database, it is impossible to perfectly deduce the subsequent techniques. We can only improve the continuity of the first five levels. Owner, you need to restore the core to more than 40% before you can carry out the subsequent deductions …"
"In addition, there are signs in the remaining data that when the [Windwheel Suppressing Mist Technique] was deduced, there was a combat technique that could complement each other and exert the greatest power. However, it took too long to cultivate. At that time, Cromwell was already old and could not cultivate it. "
"Owner, your age is very suitable for cultivating this combat technique. As long as the core is restored to about 4.5% …"
Hearing the [Moon Core] mention the restoration of the core, Hayashi River waved his hand to interrupt. He thought to himself that this smart-brain core looked very programmed, but in fact, it was very cunning. It kept showing its value because it wanted to restore itself as soon as possible.
Regarding this, Hayashi River expressed his helplessness. He also wanted to restore the [Moon Core] as soon as possible, but he really did not have that many [Shadow Flowing Light Stones].
Not to mention the other things on the [Moon Core]'s list, such as [Crystallized Dragon Scales], [Black Iron Thunder Horns] … He had never heard of such things. Even if he had them, could he just take them out and use them to perfect the core of the [Moon Core]?
Of course, Hayashi River would not do that. If he had these rare materials, he would first use them to create a stronger [Seventh Armament].
The [Moon Core] was right, and Hayashi River agreed with it.
However, if he could create a perfect [Seventh Armament], Hayashi River's combat power would undergo a qualitative change in a short period of time.
With his current strength, if he wore the perfect [Seventh Armament], he would probably be able to fight against a level eight warrior for a while.
This kind of super powerful weapon that could increase his combat power in a short period of time, even if it had side effects and limitations, was more direct than the power that could only be obtained in a long period of time.
At this time, lines of words appeared on the [Moon Core]'s [Windmill Suppression Art]'s connection method for the first five levels appeared on the [Moon Core].
Hayashi River was suddenly shocked. Before he could react, the eyeball pattern on his forehead had already started to move. The Psychic Force and Psychic Energy in his body immediately started to circulate. Like a trickle, it gradually spread throughout his body.
In a short period of time, Hayashi River's aura changed. All aspects of his body's functions suddenly recovered to their peak. There was an obvious increase in his sensory abilities, and his Psychic Energy was more condensed.
This change was so obvious that Mossy Bones and the Blue Kitty, who was sleeping in the corner, noticed it. The little guy even meowed and scurried over, thinking that something had happened to its master.
"Is this the connection method for the first five levels?"
Hayashi River couldn't help but exclaim. These mnemonics were really magical. They allowed him to have such a shocking change in such a short period of time.
If he could completely connect the first five levels of the [Windmill Suppression Art], his strength would increase by another level.
"The owner's martial arts talent is very shocking. In the remaining database, he should be one of the top ones. If he focuses on martial arts, he might become the strongest person in the world after the hundred-year war and break through the extreme wall of the Nine Realms … "
"Of course, to reach this step, the core needs to be repaired to more than 70% …"
Hearing the [Moon Core] mention the repair again, Hayashi River couldn't help but twitch his mouth. He had to admit that if the [Moon Core] could be completely repaired, it would be a great help.
Unfortunately, he really didn't have that many repair materials …
After thinking for a while, Hayashi River sighed and said, "[Moon Core], I also want to repair you as soon as possible, but you also know that I don't have that many materials. The list you've made are all extinct treasures in the present day. "
After a pause, Hayashi River continued, "However, we are preparing to open the Sealed Domain, the Sealed Domain in the extreme north of the Northern Lands. I don't know if there is any information about this in your remaining database. If we open that place, I believe that it will be able to greatly repair you. "
The [Moon Core] fell silent again. The buzzing sound of electricity could be heard. It should be searching for relevant information about the Sealed Domain.
After a long time, the [Moon Core] spoke again. It searched the remaining information and found some information about the Sealed Domain.
"Indeed, as the owner said, the Sealed Domain has the materials to repair my core. The [Earth King Equipment] was also created in the Sealed Domain …"
"Opening the Sealed Domain requires a descendant of the Centaur Race with a special pattern. This is not difficult. The [Earth King Equipment] that is required is just the shell … "
"Owner, don't worry. I will do my best to help open the Sealed Domain."
"Owner, please give me another [Shadow Flowing Light Stone] and inject spiritual energy into it. I need to hurry up and repair."
…
Faced with the request of the [Moon Core], Hayashi River had no choice but to endure the pain again. He threw it a God's Stone and injected spiritual energy into it.
As the [Moon Core]'s voice died down, Mossy Bone was still in awe. He had really picked up a treasure this time. If the [Moon Core] could be completely repaired, the power of Hayashi River and the Redbud Organization would rapidly expand during that period of time.
"Don't be too happy too early. At least we need the [Shadow Flowing Light Stone] for the second tank …" Hayashi River poured cold water on Mossy Bone's enthusiasm.
Mossy Bone choked. This was indeed an unbearable repair cost …
"No matter what, I have to get the Sealed Domain …"
Hayashi River pondered and made a decision. "If that's the case, I'll prepare well. I'll figure out the Shi Family's situation, and then …"
Lin Chuan looked outside the window. The sun had finally risen completely from the east, and he mumbled, "Those people should be thinking of stirring up trouble in the north. They want to fish in troubled waters. Then, I'll do it. I'll stir up trouble and see who can catch the big fish."
Standing up, Hayashi River walked out of the door. He had an appointment with Third Prince Meng today. It was a good chance for him to get some useful information from the Northern Royal Family.
…
In the morning.
In the northern district of Shi Haishan City, compared to the entire mountain city, there were fewer people in the northern district. This was the real old district of the city. After the expansion of Shi Haishan City, the number of residents here decreased every year.
In the original appearance of this mountain city, the northern district was the real bustling city. The other four districts were deserted.
However, after the prosperity of the Northern Region, Shi Haishan City became the hub of the Northern Region. It was foreseeable that the northern district, where smelting plants and mines were distributed, would gradually decline.
After all, once life became rich, living creatures would pursue spiritual enjoyment. Who would want to stay in this dusty place filled with a strange metallic smell …
This was where Hayashi River's smelting plant would be located.
After Ke Lilong accepted the huge sum of money, everything went smoothly. From the location to the relevant procedures, everything went smoothly.
The smelting plant didn't need to be rebuilt at all. It was an abandoned site that Ke Lilong had kept for a long time, waiting for the right price.
Since Lin Chuan came and wanted to build a large smelting factory, Ke Lilong went with the flow and gave the place to Lin Chuan. He said that it was a special permit from the administration hall, and he could rent it for one hundred years for free.
In this regard, Hayashi River felt that the money he gave Ke Lilong was well spent.
If Ke Lilong knew the real reason why Hayashi River wanted to build a smelting plant, he probably wouldn't let go even if he offered ten times the amount.
A long hover car slowly drove over. Lin Chuan sat in the back of the car and looked at the third prince, Munthe. "Your Highness, there's no need for you to come with me to the Northern District. This isn't a good place."
"It's fine, it's fine. I've been to Shi Haishan City many times, but I've never been to the northern district. I can come with Mr. Chuan and take a look at your smelting plant. "
Third Prince Munte's face was filled with sincerity as he spoke with great sincerity.
