Chapter 4 04: Farmer's Magical Power [Pulling up the Seedlings to Help Them Grow]

Recover the northern border and return to imperial business!
These eight words were like a huge hammer, hitting Guo Xiaoding's heart hard and making Guo Xiaoding's breathing rapid.

As a general guarding the northern border, nothing could be more tempting than these eight words.

After exhaling twice, Guo Xiaoding's blood in his heart calmed down, and his face was full of bitterness: "Recover the northern border? Oh, how difficult it is."

"I led an army of 30,000 and fought hard for 83 years, but I couldn't even defend the last Yancheng. How dare you say you can recover the northern border?"

Guo Xiaoding had no hope for Chu Zhongxing. He was more eager than anyone else to recover the northern border and return to Di Shang, but he knew better than anyone how difficult this would be.

“Whether you can succeed is one thing, whether you do it is another.”

Chu Zhongxing no longer paid attention to Guo Xiaoding and focused his attention on the line of text in front of him.

[The resurrection pool has been activated. Please protect the resurrection pool. This is where players are resurrected. If it is breached, players will not be able to be resurrected. ]

"Where the players are resurrected?"

Chu Zhongxing's eyes lit up. He thought that this resurrection pool was used to resurrect himself, but he didn't expect it was used to resurrect players.

In this case, I can summon players to appear in this world.

"With the fourth calamity's immortality and unlimited growth ability, it shouldn't be a joke to retake the northern border and return to the imperial business."

A line of text floated in front of Chu Zhongxing's eyes.

[Please take out the core seeds from the resurrection pool, plant them next to the resurrection pool, and water them with the resurrection pool water. 】

According to the words that emerged, Chu Zhongxing groped for a palm-sized blue seed in the resurrection pool. He buried the seed next to the resurrection pool and watered it with water from the resurrection pool in his hands.

Looking at the seeds that took root and sprouted in just a moment, Guo Xiaoding's heart was filled with emotions.

"Farmer, the magical power of pulling up seedlings to help them grow???"

Although Guo Xiaoding was a military strategist, he had also seen the magical powers of other schools. The two magical powers displayed by Chu Zhongxing in front of him, [Building a House with a Single Tree] and [Pulling Up Seedlings to Help Them Grow], were among the most common magical powers of the Mohist and Agricultural schools.

But he had never thought that a person without spiritual energy in his body could not only display magical powers, but also display magical powers from two schools.

"The Nong Family and the Mohist Family have merged?"

Guo Xiaoding always felt that a merger between the two companies was unlikely.

The seeds took root and sprouted. Chu Zhongxing placed his hand on the sprout and squeezed out a drop of blood. As the blood dripped onto the sprout, Chu Zhongxing felt his soul connected to the sprout and the resurrection pool.

Resurrection pool, can revive players.

And the tender shoots can make Chu Zhongxing stronger.

"I am now connected to the sprout. As long as I water the sprout carefully and let it grow healthily, I can draw strength from the sprout and strengthen myself."

Chu Zhongxing looked at the young sprouts under his feet. The sprouts were extremely small at this stage, but they still gave Chu Zhongxing four abilities.

1: Shape the body and summon "players" far away on the blue planet.

2: You can forcibly control the shaped body to do anything.

3: Text appears on the eyes of the sculpted body.

4: Absorb the emotional fluctuations of players in the designated area and convert them into energy points.

"Shape the body, force the body I shape, materialize the words."

"Although I'm not a game planner, with my many years of gaming experience, these three abilities are very important!"

Chu Zhongxing’s mind was constantly working, thinking about the uses of these three abilities.

The first one needs no explanation, it is [Face Pinching] and [Login].

The second ability is to control the body to do anything, which can be used to prevent players from killing me. "There are thousands of players who want to kill themselves, and there are many who want to kill NPCs. The second ability can ensure that players can't kill me."

Chu Zhongxing carefully studied and pondered the use of the second ability. Combining it with the games he played in his previous life, Chu Zhongxing felt that the most suitable second ability was [CG].

In the game CG, players cannot control their own characters. Chu Zhongxing can fully utilize his second ability to disguise some important things as game CG to prevent stupid players from causing trouble at critical moments.

As for the third ability, the first thing Chu Zhongxing thought of was [Attribute Panel].

A game without the [Attribute Panel] will lack soul.

Whether it is a role-playing game like World of Warcraft, a turn-based game like Fantasy Westward Journey, or even a multiplayer online tactical competitive game like League of Legends, there must be an attribute panel.

The attribute panel is the soul of role-playing games. Countless players spend day and night in the game, isn’t it just to enhance their game panel bit by bit?
"Let's build the attribute panel first."

Chu Zhongxing turned around and fixed his eyes on Guo Xiaoding, whose expression kept changing. After thinking about what to say in his mind, he asked Guo Xiaoding:

"General Guo, what is your rank?"

"Rank? I'm a loyal and martial general, a fourth-rank general!"

"Not this, not this, wait, what the hell? You are a general of the Zhenbei Army, but you are not the Zhenbei General?"

Chu Zhongxing was stunned. Guo Xiaoding blushed and said in defense, "I am a senior rank 4th rank. I have been a senior rank 4th rank 83 years ago. Do you know what this means?"

"The Zhenbei General is a second-rank general. Have you ever seen a second-rank general in his thirties?"

"Ah."

Chu Zhongxing did not use the title of Champion Marquis to refute Guo Xiaoding. He continued to ask Guo Xiaoding: "General Guo, I am not asking about your military rank, I am asking about your strength. What is your current strength?"

"strength?"

"Yes, what level are you at?"

Chu Zhongxing gestured with his hands and feet: "For example, the Golden Core Stage, the Nascent Soul Stage?"

"What's the Jindan stage, what's the Yuanying stage, what's the mess."

Although Guo Xiaoding didn't understand what Chu Zhongxing said, he understood what Chu Zhongxing meant.

"I am now in the fourth realm."

"The fourth realm?"

"Yes, the fourth realm, the realm of governing a country."

Seeing that Chu Zhongxing didn't even understand the most basic common sense, Guo Xiaoding gave Chu Zhongxing a simple explanation: "The hundreds of schools of thought in the world divide the realm into six realms, namely, learning, self-cultivation, family management, governance, world peace and sagehood."

"I am currently at the state governance level, which is a long way from the fifth level."

???

Wang Defa?
This state is completely different from what I imagined!

Chu Zhongxing was a little confused. He thought that the fourth realm mentioned by Guo Xiaoding was similar to the Nascent Soul realm, but he didn't expect it to be like this.

"Are all the hundreds of schools classified in this way? Then how do we distinguish between the so-called learning realm and the self-cultivation realm?"

"Yes and no!"

Guo Xiaoding began to act as a riddle teller. Chu Zhongxing rolled his eyes at Guo Xiaoding and motioned for him to continue.

"The Six Realms is a general term for hundreds of schools of thought. Each school has a different internal name for it."
