Chapter 438 The Sword of Royal Power
The arrangement of the Jiang Xiaobai car team has become Zhao Tiesheng's most pressing problem.
The main reason was that his car had too many people, almost equal to the total number of people in all the other convoys combined.
The island originally had plenty of space, but with the number of people doubling, it became somewhat insufficient.
After all, there are still two or three days left, and if other teams come, the space will be even smaller.
-
Xu Si did not continue to watch the Jiang Xiaobai convoy being settled.
Whether it's filling in lakes to create land or compressing space!
At this moment, his mind was entirely focused on the [Sword of Punishment], which was beginning to transform.
The progress bar on the system panel is still slowly moving.
Upgrade progress: 34%...41%...57%...
The upgrade of the Sword of Punishment will take several more hours to complete.
He closed his eyes, his consciousness sinking into the depths of his heart. He chatted with Yi Yi for a while, then settled down to use the star core to grind the [Meteorite Fragment] he had just exchanged for that day.
Level 6, 7.12%.
Level 6, 7.39%
……
It wasn't fast, but it was eventually resumed.
This kind of visible progress is actually quite reassuring.
Night fell quickly, and the hustle and bustle on the island in the middle of the lake gradually subsided.
Fu Xiaojian and the other team leaders went to accept Mei Lin's invitation. After all, the attack on Jiangcheng would begin in two days, and it was necessary to reach a consensus before the battle started.
Jiang Xiaobai, who had just arrived, was naturally among those invited.
The biggest reason is that they have a large population and they have exports that solve their food problem.
Perhaps the little white train will have the opportunity to become the most reliable moat for the survival base.
However, Xu Si was not so optimistic, because he saw the "temporary docking" feature in Xiao Bai's entry.
As the name suggests, it is temporary rather than permanent.
Xu Si was destined to embark on his own path, so he devoted most of his time to improving himself.
To dispel the various thoughts churning within him, he also tried his best to avoid having more contact with other members of the team.
More contact means more concern.
The sequence is slowly climbing.
6.84%, 6.92%, 7.14%...
At this rate, once the fragment is fully absorbed, the sequence process will advance to approximately 8%.
If all these strange drops were turned into nutrients for the star core, it might reach 20%, but this is just Xu Si's most optimistic estimate.
There will be no bonfire party tonight because the team leaders are attending a meeting.
However, everyone at the Xinhuo team's campsite still gathered around the campfire, chatting about the interesting things that happened that day.
For example, Xu Si single-handedly killed Zhou Long, and Ta Shan single-handedly stopped a train.
We talked for a very long time.
Grilled Sausage listened quietly; she spoke the least tonight.
It was mostly Doubao talking, and it was mostly Doudou talking.
"Hey sausage, why aren't you saying anything? Aren't you happy?" DouDou came over, holding up a skewer of browned, unidentified jerky and waving it in front of her.
The sausage shook its head and didn't say anything.
She couldn't say.
The first thing the Wind Listener sequence taught her was to shut up.
"How come you're just like Master Wei?" Dou Dou looked at her suspiciously.
Master Wei looked at Dou Dou with suspicion.
On the roof of the Nirvana vehicle, Xu Si sat cross-legged.
The progress bar on the system panel has jumped to the final stage.
Upgrade progress: 89%...94%...98%...
The meteorite fragment in his palm had been completely obliterated and absorbed by the star core, and the sequence progress stopped at 7.86%.
The Sword of Punishment floated deep within the dimensional space, its dark red blade covered with fine cracks, like a piece of porcelain about to shatter.
But those cracks were clearly not a sign of breakage, but rather a prelude to rebirth.
Dark red light seeped from the cracks, like lava surging deep within the earth's crust, illuminating the entire sword as if it were a burning charcoal.
If Xu Si were to take it out now, it would probably alarm everyone on the island.
Until, suddenly, the light disappeared.
Like a star reaching the end of its life.
All the light, all the heat, all the energy flowed into the very core of the sword.
Inside the scabbard, a brand new sword is taking shape.
Upgrade complete
[Current Wonder: Sword of Kings]
[Rank: 127]
【Characteristics: Royal Authority Suppression, Sword Heart Clarity, Royal Judgment, Sword Domain】
[Description: This is a sword of kingship born from punishment. It is no longer merely an executor, but a judge. Within its domain, all enemies must bow their heads.]
[Comment: A king has no shackles!]
Is this the rare item obtained by spending tens of thousands of purification points?
Going from 379 to 127, it's hard to say whether it's a gain or a loss; in short, the further you advance, the harder it gets.
However, Xu Si genuinely liked these characteristics.
Xu Si sat cross-legged on the roof of the Nirvana Carriage, his palms clenched, and a long sword made of dark gold silently floated in front of him.
The sword of kingship.
The sword is longer and more upright than the Sword of Punishment, with lines that have changed from sharp to square. Fine, hair-like golden lines run along the spine of the sword, gleaming with a cold, eerie luster under the starlight.
A dark red gemstone is inlaid on the hilt, giving it a majestic and solemn appearance.
Xu Si gripped the hilt of the sword.
A deep, heavy, almost tangible force surged from the sword into his palm, flowing along the star veins to his limbs and bones.
It wasn't the violent, destructive power of the Sword of Punishment, but a more restrained, authoritative, and almost unquestionable suppression.
Wang Quan suppressed the situation.
This feature doesn't need to be activated; it's always there, like a king on his throne who doesn't need to speak, yet his subjects will naturally bow their heads.
Xu Si held the sword horizontally in front of him, his starry eyes reflecting the dark golden sword light.
Sword Heart Clarity
He could feel that the sword was no longer just a weapon, but an extension of his will, and also his limbs.
Where the sword points, the heart follows.
"Not bad," he said softly.
"bass!"
The sword of kingship sheathed itself, truly understanding his will. Xu Si felt that it seemed to have awakened a preliminary consciousness similar to Nirvana, but it was not yet able to communicate.
Unfortunately, it couldn't be stored inside his body. Xu Si played with it repeatedly before finally storing it in his dimensional space.
Actually, he intended to just casually play with it, but such an extraordinary sword was too conspicuous, so he decided to keep it as a precaution.
Fu Xiaojian returned when the campfire died down, and Xu Si had no idea what they had talked about.
But judging from Fu Xiaojian's expression, he seemed quite satisfied.
This is perhaps the best explanation.
The strange item that Xu Si held on the roof of the Nirvana vehicle turned to ashes again. This kind of strange item, which had a relatively poor correlation with the star core, did have limited effect on improving the sequence process.
Moreover, most of these strange drops are level 2 or 3 strange drops, and ten of them are not even worth one [Meteorite Fragment].
However, before dawn, after consuming nearly half of the strange drops, he finally increased the sequence progress to 20%.
This strengthened his resolve to leave. He needed higher-level, more bizarre drops, he needed to improve his strength as soon as possible, and he needed to embark on an even more difficult path.
