Mythological origins

"There are almost two hundred people..." After dawn, Bai Mo counted the number of people busy outside the mine, and the number was a little beyond his expectations.

Something happened last night.

The hundreds of people imprisoned by the lone wolf, with the help of the spiritual energy treasure loan, slaughtered the lone wolf members who guarded them.

Even the fully armed slave-catching team that came to rescue after hearing the news was beaten and fled by the rebellious crowd.

Of course, this level of bloodshed is not uncommon in Emerald City. It is similar to the fight between big gangs, but the number of people involved is slightly more.

After defeating the lone wolf, the people who regained their freedom began to choose their future.

The more than 70 people who have been installed with the spiritual energy treasure have no choice. In order to break through the siege, everyone is in debt, so when they receive the system task and need them to go to the mining site, no one intends to refuse.

Other ordinary people without qualifications walked in different directions at this time.

After escaping from the magic cave, some people try to contact their family and friends as quickly as possible.

Some people left silently and disappeared into the dark streets.

Some followed the ability users who led everyone out and headed to their destinations in a daze.

In order to keep it secret, Bai Mo cast a temporary cognitive distortion on the spiritual energy treasure.

In about a month, these ordinary people who escaped will think that it was others who were lucky enough to grab weapons and lead everyone to escape from prison, rather than some extraordinary appearance, to avoid leaking the news.

…

"Master, do I need to collect more tools and supplies?" Ding Man, who was standing aside, crossed his hands in front of his belly that had just lost weight a few days ago, lowered his eyebrows and looked like a housekeeper.

"Go."

After receiving Bai Mo's call, Ding Man and his friends bought and moved, and prepared simple tools and food and lodging for hundreds of people overnight.

After experiencing a series of changes in his body, Ding Man now respected Bai Mo as a god. Not to mention just asking him to contribute money and effort, even if Bai Mo asked him to chop people with a knife now, he would not hesitate.

Let a 200-pound fat man lose 140 pounds overnight, and eliminate a bunch of old problems such as high blood lipids and fatty liver. This is enough to be described as a miracle.

"Unfortunately, the gap at the beginning is still too big." Looking at Ding Man's sturdy figure going away, Bai Mo couldn't help but sigh.

If he was the Black Sword, he could have hypnotized or even directly controlled the more than ten purple-robed nobles who held the most core power in Rome with his identity advantage, and then mobilized the power of the whole country to dig spiritual stones and send a steady stream of spiritual stones to him.

It's not as troublesome as it is now, and I have to catch a group of Palu to dig slowly.

This is also the optimal solution of "I am the only one".

There is no need to brainlessly confront the power of the regime, to compare the strength of modern weapons and supernatural power, and it is enough to find a way to directly contact and control a few key figures.

The state machine is a pyramid after all. No matter how strong and thick the tower is, there are only a few mortals standing on the top of the tower.

As long as you can use a few people at the top of the tower, you can issue orders to the people below through layers of power affiliation.

It is much easier to parasitize and seize the body of a powerful top leader than to defeat this force and then rebuild your own power.

No matter how powerful the thermal weapons are, there must be an order to attack first.

If the top leaders don't give orders, no matter how many missiles there are, can the people below still do nothing?

With Bai Mo's strength restored to today, it is not a problem to hypnotize 20 to 30 people all day.

As long as the other party does not leave him more than 200 kilometers away.     This number is also enough to control the highest decision-making level of Rome.

But the premise of everything is to be able to meet and contact, and understand the corresponding spiritual arts.

In the previous life, Bai Mo had the opportunity to contact the top leaders of Rome in the early stage, but at that time the entire cultivation system had just sprouted, and it was already very good for everyone to understand their own innate abilities, not to mention learning a bunch of additional mental control spiritual arts.

It is easy for Bai Mo to kill them, but he really doesn't have the ability to control them.

When the relevant spiritual arts developed later, the top leaders of the Federation also had the protection of the life field. It was still easy to kill them, but it was really impossible to control them.

The existence of the life field made it difficult for the extraordinary to be killed, but it was difficult to turn them into puppets that lost their self.

Unless they caught people and carried out a lot of deep processing, but they could do this, so what difference did it make whether they lost their self or not...

...

Before the real eruption of the spiritual tide, there were only some fragmentary ordinary spiritual stones in the dead volcanoes everywhere, and the spiritual essence needed by high-level cultivators had not yet been born.

But before the third level, ordinary spiritual stones are still very useful. Bai Mo's current strength has only recovered to the early second level. According to the standards of Terra later, he feels that he should be between level 22 and 23.

If there are enough spiritual stones, he can quickly push to level 29.

For newcomers, cultivation may require step-by-step precautions, fearing that there will be loopholes, but for old monsters like them, rushing forward desperately will be the end of it.

…

"This spiritual stone is a good thing." Su Yan muttered softly, holding the tool in his hand and staring at the spiritual stone sample, his eyes full of instinctive desire.

After they followed the instructions of the system and showed their magical powers to come to this remote place, Sadako and Li Hualan, two guys who claimed to be psychic envoys, warmly received everyone.

Then different divisions of labor were carried out based on the identity and ability of the person coming.

Ordinary people who do not have natural cultivation qualifications and cannot temporarily install spiritual treasures are equivalent to ordinary hired workers. They are mainly responsible for camp chores and their wages are paid daily by Ding Man.

After a month, they are free to choose to stay or leave.

Su Yan and the others, who had already installed the psionic treasure, were all going to mine.

For the unearthed spiritual stones, those in debt have two options.

One is to hand it over directly to the two envoys, each piece can be worth one power point.

Of course, you can also practice it yourself, and it depends on your personal destiny to see how much you can get out of it.

Upon hearing this arrangement, Su Yan looked at the psychic treasure that breathed one percent a day and sighed softly.

Yes, the daily interest rate is one percent. In yesterday's battle, Su Yan borrowed a total of two hundred and fifty spiritual energy points to release spiritual arts, which meant that he had to dig out at least two and a half spiritual energy points every day just for the interest. Stone to offset the debt...

But compared to being exposed to the mysteries of the extraordinary world, loan sharking with a daily interest rate of 1% seems to have become less hideous.

At least it was much better than the loan shark borrowed from his gambling daddy.

PS: I wish everyone a Happy New Year a little early, and a wave of New Year red envelopes will be sent out in the book club at 11 o'clock tonight. (End of chapter)
