Several days after the Caines tragedy, a number of barrier nodes were set up outside the city of Caines, and a huge isolation barrier confined the city of Caines.
This isolation barrier is basically unable to block real objects, and animals and insects instinctively don't want to approach the range of the barrier. Its main purpose is to prevent the spread of the breath of death.
Because humans cannot be blocked from entering and exiting, a cordon was set up outside the barrier to prohibit crossing. In conjunction with the scattered Eyes of Surveillance, a large number of police forces played all kinds of wits and courage with some reporters who tried to find out the truth about the city of Cairns.
The defense near the entrance of the courtyard was taken over by a newly transferred garrison regiment. The rescue personnel sent by the government were mainly concentrated in the new city area. Some people who survived there were temporarily concentrated in a camp established at the junction of Kanins and Kusai City for rescue and care.
Originally, there were not many outsiders in Bear Pig Town. The undead and the surviving townspeople were tidying up the desolate and dilapidated town.
The casualties in the city of Caines were basically caused by the color domain protozoa. It was difficult for people infected with the color domain protozoa to survive, and most of those who survived had only suffered a sleeping curse.
The Sleeping Curse itself is harmless to the human body, but as for the specific structure of the rescue camp in the new city area, it is unknown.
Early in the morning, in the bathroom, a groan of pain disturbed Mu Hua who was deep in thought while soaking in the bathtub.
Looking sideways, he saw Clark collapsed in the shower, the water from the shower head hitting his body, and the cramped muscles in his right leg made it difficult for him to get up.
"Why don't you use the treatment chamber?" Lying beside the bathtub, Mu Hua asked Clark in a natural tone.
Clark didn't have any serious problems. He probably just overtrained in the morning. This situation was very common for combat professionals. Even Mu Hua, who had super-fast regeneration, would kneel from time to time. However, his body's self-repair ability was super strong, so he didn't need special treatment and would recover quickly.
"Get ready to take a shower before going, sir. The nutrients for training are almost used up." Curling up his body and hugging his thighs, Clark said to Mu Hua, suppressing a groan.
This is a common situation for combat professionals, but the pain of the muscles being torn and twisted in this situation is indescribable. After all, Clark probably wouldn't frown even if he was stabbed, but the spasm in his right leg made him groan unbearably.
"Ask Deman to buy some more nutrients. Is the energy module of the treatment chamber okay?" As he spoke, Mu Hua threw a healing magic at Clark. Clark's body felt relieved, but he didn't need to use the treatment chamber anymore today.
The healing magic derived from divine arts is not very popular and consumes a lot of mana. Most adventurers still use medical cabins for treatment after being injured during training.
Take the team that Taibesha created for example. In fact, the salary expenditure is not that much, but in addition to combat readiness, the treatment of the team members after high-intensity training and the corresponding nutritional supplements are the main expenses.
The discomfort and trauma were healed, but the physical fatigue did not recover so quickly. Clark said that the energy unit of the treatment chamber did not need to be replenished. Seeing Mu Hua waving, Clark staggered to the side of the bathtub.
"You're going to join the strategy group later, right? Is it okay to train like this?" Mu Hua asked with a frown.
"It's okay. I'm in the logistics team today. The commander has announced restrictions on the intensity of training in the near future. Joan has also drawn up several training plans. I won't miss anything." Clark explained.
"What plans do you have for the future? Well, about your own future." Looking at the agile Clark, Mu Hua asked thoughtfully.
After observing for a period of time, Mu Hua discovered that Clark had a tough character, which might be related to his original living environment. He had a more retro sense of loyalty and righteousness.
Now that the World Tree has the function of teleportation, Mu Hua intends to train the members of Taibesha's team and open the Abyss Island to them, but all the prerequisites are that they are willing to stay in the team for a long time.
After all, if they want to enter the Abyss Island, they must improve their magical adaptability. If they plan to stay for a few years and then change jobs, Mu Hua will definitely not waste resources on them.
He became a ghost and obtained a title, but his good territory turned into a ghost town. Mu Hua now needs useful people under his command. Considering his social connections, it is more practical and reliable to train them himself.
He wants to select the management and administration personnel from the ghosts in the town, while Mu Hua prefers to cultivate magical life as the combat personnel.
As for Taibesha's team, he would never have any intention of competing with Taibesha for power. He could just train her and let Taibesha lead the team to deal with the magic stone corpse in the future, right?
"Sir, I want to follow you." Clark said seriously in response to Mu Hua's question.
"Wow!" The warm water splashed and Mu Hua got out of the bathtub. He was satisfied with Clark's answer, but he chuckled and shook his head.
"You can't keep up with me for now, so follow Tabitha first." Mu Hua said with a smile, thinking about buying some skill stones for Clark later. Now, the tears of elements that can be said to affect the essence of life seem to have become a prop specifically for improving magic affinity in Mu Hua's hands.
As for the team members, Mu Hua does not have high requirements for them and will not spend too much time on them for the time being.
Strengthen their survival ability, so that they can go out and hunt low-level monsters, and bring back the monster corpses, smelt the products and give them a share. As long as they work hard, they will not be weaker in the future. Mu Hua did not expect them to fight against powerful monsters for the time being. He loved low-level monsters very much.
Looking at Mu Hua's back as he left the bathroom, especially seeing the stratum corneum covering Mu Hua's entire spine and forming lines on his back, Clark twitched his lips.
The black, blood-scab-like stratum corneum was like a gigantic arthropod monster lying on Mu Hua's back.
Well, it's not a skin disease. Clark knew that this thing was called Purgatory Armor. He had heard from Mu Hua earlier that it looked ugly when spread on the body. He seemed to want to get himself a tail first.
Clark still felt that he should stay with Mu Hua, because he always felt that Mu Hua would be easily beaten if he went out. . .
After taking a hot bath in the morning, Mu Hua left the suite. The second and third floors of the Deman Hotel were silent. All the original guests in the hotel had left, including members of the Odysseus team.
After all, the town is now full of dead spirits, and here at the Deman Hotel, there are people crying, reporting, seeking help, and even making trouble. The hotel may become a gathering place for ghosts at any time.
Most adventurers would not stay in the town if they could stay in the courtyard, let alone the cat in the hotel.
Going down to the lobby on the first floor, ordinary people might feel that it is empty, but if one has the ability of clairvoyance, even Mu Hua would inevitably frown.
There were ghosts floating everywhere in the hall, and the few living people among the ghosts were like lambs to be slaughtered. A dozen dead souls whose bodies seemed to be wearing gray and black cloaks were guarding the stairs, as if to welcome Mu Hua.
Deman saw Mu Hua hurriedly step forward, and as he walked, a ghost passed through him. His body shuddered, and as he looked around, Deman cursed something under his breath.
"Good morning, sir!" Pushing aside a group of vaguely visible dead souls, Deman greeted Mu Hua with a smile on his face.
"...Good morning." Mu Hua twitched his lips. He was too lazy to argue with Deman anymore and just replied casually.
Ever since the fat man confirmed that Mu Hua had obtained the title, he began to address Mu Hua as "Master". It was not that he wanted to curry favor with Mu Hua, this young nobleman. In Deman's words, if Mu Hua became the lord, then he could rest assured to hand over the Deman Hotel to him.
"Sir!" After Deman, all the dead souls present saluted Mu Hua in unison.
"Yeah." Mu Hua nodded in response, his expression calm, his eyes sweeping over old Morey and his group.
These ghosts gathered here early in the morning to welcome Mu Hua. There was no such rule originally. It was probably because Caroline's words about loyalty to Mu Hua spread out, and it seemed to have a good effect.
Now that they have shown their attitudes, they should also make some arrangements regarding the planning of the town. Outside of old Morey and his group, there are some anxiously wandering ghosts who seem to want to attract Mu Hua's attention.
Mu Hua found most of those ghosts unfamiliar, but among them, Pete's figure made Mu Hua take a second look.
Although no one knew what was going on in Pete's mind, a rather conspicuous 'silver thread' was floating in the emotional energy emanating from his body.
Jealousy. Among all the emotional energies emanating from Pete, Mu Hua could now only distinguish jealousy.
At this moment, the jealousy brewing in Pete was greater than that of an ordinary person, and Mu Hua didn't need to calmly absorb this jealous energy, as it flowed into Mu Hua's body as if returning to its nest.
Among all kinds of emotional energies, Mu Hua can only absorb the original sin of jealousy for the time being. After these jealous energies travel around in Mu Hua's body, if Mu Hua does not return them to the sea of magic power, they will dissipate without a trace.
Mu Hua has not yet found the use of the jealousy energy. Even if he puts them into the magic sea, they will not merge with the magic, but become a different color energy in the magic sea.
I don't know how to use it. After occupying the sea of magic power, it will reduce Mu Hua's magic value in disguise. This also leads to Mu Hua basically dispersing them directly now.
However, this is only temporary. Original sin is a high-end energy after all, and Mu Hua just hasn't found its use yet.
And Pete's jealousy was obviously directed at Mu Hua. Simply put, Pete had no good intentions towards Mu Hua.
But Mu Hua's expression when he looked at Peter was very strange. It was not because he was angry or unhappy, because Mu Hua found that this kind of existence that could supply him with jealous energy seemed to be necessary to keep? ? ? (End of this chapter)
