181. Chapter 181 The Great Xia Embassy!
Chapter 181: Embassy of Da Xia!
In less than ten minutes, Liu Zimo rescued all the Da Xia nationals who were imprisoned and destined to be slaughtered. There were sixty-nine people, all emaciated, pale, and extremely weak due to malnutrition. If they hadn't just taken the "Satiety Pill" provided by Liu Zimo, they wouldn't even have the strength to stand up and walk.
As for the Jin Ji nationals in the small city, apart from a few ignorant individuals who were directly killed by Liu Zimo, most of them didn't even know that the "food" they were being held captive for had been rescued.
"Advisor Liu, wait, wait!"
"We can't just leave like this, we can't turn a blind eye to their suffering!"
"Since the 'Satiety Pill' is made from the flesh and blood of demonic beasts, and the method of refining it is not that difficult, why not publicly disclose the formula or simply produce another batch of 'Satiety Pills' to save the Jin Ji nationals who are also suffering from famine?"
"They are also pitiful!"
"Yes, Advisor Liu. If they weren't driven to the point of desperation, they wouldn't have wanted to eat people. It's a human instinct for survival and deserves forgiveness!"
"Moreover, only a small portion of them are bad people. Most of them are actually kind-hearted. They were forced to eat human flesh. Strictly speaking, they are also victims!"
"We, Da Xia, are a country of etiquette, and you are an advisor to the military. You should show the corresponding magnanimity and not only care about our own people while ignoring the life and death of people from other countries!"
"..."
Standing in front of the last dungeon door, Liu Zimo listened to the heated discussion between the two Da Xia people who had just regained some strength after taking his "Satiety Pill". They were a man and a woman, seemingly a couple.
Ever since they learned that the "Satiety Pill" was made from the flesh and blood of wild demonic beasts, these two individuals were like they had been injected with chicken blood, standing side by side in front of Liu Zimo, constantly persuading him with a righteous and holy demeanor.
They hoped that Liu Zimo would publicly disclose the formula of the "Satiety Pill" to save the Jin Ji nationals from their plight, to demonstrate their style and showcase the demeanor of a great nation.
They even wanted to teach Liu Zimo the breathing technique and cultivation method that he had just imprinted in their minds, saying that everyone was of the human race and had a common enemy.
No matter who it was or what happened, they should not limit their perspective to small countries and petty righteousness.
They should open their hearts, be magnanimous, and treat the Jin Ji nationals as their own people, without favoritism...
The couple went back and forth, speaking with righteousness and a holy aura, even in the face of the angry gazes, accusations, and even insults from those around them, they didn't feel the slightest sense of wrongdoing.
They remained resolutely standing in front of Liu Zimo, persuading him with righteous words, as if they were the side of justice. Not listening to their persuasion would be considered moral corruption, turning a blind eye to the suffering, and being selfish.
Liu Zimo silently watched their splendid performance.
At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Why is it that no matter the era, there are always some individuals with thoughts that differ from the norm?
If he wasn't absolutely certain that all the devouring spirit insects in this small city had been completely eliminated, he would even suspect that these two fools had been controlled and brainwashed by the devouring spirit insects again.
"Very well, I also think you make a lot of sense," Liu Zimo looked at the couple with a calm gaze and said softly.
"So, I have decided to keep those of you who possess great love and broad-mindedness to continue accompanying the people of Jinji Country here!"
"I hope you can use the love in your hearts to influence and help them, and together, overcome the current difficulties!"
As for me, I acknowledge that I do not possess such great broad-mindedness, so let us part ways here!"
"Lastly, I wish you good luck!"
After saying that, Liu Zimo waved his right hand, not only retracting the martial arts secret techniques imprinted in their sea of consciousness, but also taking away the energy stored in their stomachs.
Moreover, before leaving with the others, Liu Zimo deliberately released a trace of martial arts aura, attracting the two Jinji Country guards stationed outside.
Bang!
When the two tall and burly Jinji Country guards broke in, the young couple was still in a state of confusion and had not yet recovered.
They never expected that Liu Zimo could disappear with so many people in an instant.
Even more unexpectedly, Liu Zimo had such a narrow mind that he would abandon them here if he couldn't win the argument!
Who is this person?
With such quality, he can still become a military advisor to the General Staff?!
"Husband, it seems like they really left?"
"How could he do this?"
"He is the military advisor to the General Staff, even if he doesn't accept our opinions, he shouldn't retaliate so blatantly!"
"Husband, what should we do next?"
"Everyone has been rescued, only the two of us are left. If those people outside become extremely hungry and want to eat people again, who will stand in front of us?"
"I don't want to die..."
"Wife, don't be afraid. We can reason with them, we can tell them about the 'Satiety Pill'. Trust me, I will definitely persuade the Jinji people outside to let us go..."
The couple held each other tightly, watching the two furious Jinji guards rushing towards them.
Bang!
Bang!
Before they could explain, they saw the two guards swinging their iron rods and fiercely hitting them on the head.
"Damn dogs of Da Xia, still trying to run away!"
"Quick, while they're not completely dead, take them out and cook them. Otherwise, the meat will turn sour later..."
This was the last conversation the couple heard before losing consciousness.
Until their death, they couldn't understand why they, who had been wholeheartedly trying to help the loving people of Jinji Country, were treated like this.
In the sky above the city.
Seeing the two of them being dragged by the ankles like two dead pigs by the two Jinji guards, all the way to the boiling pot, and being thrown into the boiling water.
Only then did Liu Zimo slowly retract his divine sense. The uncomfortable thoughts from earlier suddenly became clear and comfortable.
Behind him were more than sixty people, including Mei Lan and her son.
Before Liu Zimo brought them back to the Turtle Shell, he had already hypnotized them in advance, lying in a corner of the Turtle Shell, sleeping soundly.
There was no other reason, he just didn't want a group of people gathering together, chattering and annoying him, affecting his upcoming journey.
Anyway, he had already fed them the "Satiety Pill". Even if they didn't wake up for ten days or half a month, it wouldn't have any impact.
"Let's go, old turtle, to the next stop!"
Liu Zimo quietly gave instructions to the turtle, and the old turtle nodded happily, smoothly taking off and flying towards the nearest coastal city.
In this way, city after city, Liu Zimo continuously harvested the devouring spirit insects lurking in each city.
It must be said that although the Kingdom of Jinji is vast and sparsely populated, there are not many surviving bases and cities with complete city defenses.
But every time, Liu Zimo was able to capture a considerable number of devouring spirit insects from them!
Sometimes twenty, sometimes thirty, and at most, even reaching fifty at once!
It can be said without reservation that, except for the ones in Longhu Mountain, the number of devouring spirit insects hidden in each city here is much higher than that of cities of the same level in the Kingdom of Daxia!
Although he didn't know the reason for this, Liu Zimo was extremely delighted.
Because in just half a day, he had already successfully killed over a thousand devouring spirit larvae and nearly a hundred second-stage devouring spirit insects!
It can be said that he had gained a lot, and he was one step closer to his goal of breaking through with strength!
However, what gave him a headache was that as his hunting range expanded, the number of people from the Kingdom of Daxia rescued on the turtle's back also continued to increase.
By now, it had already exceeded three thousand people.
That is to say, the turtle's size could change at will, even accommodating tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people. Otherwise, if he brought so many people on the road, he would be dragged to death.
Fortunately.
Before leaving the territory of the Kingdom of Daxia, in case of any unexpected situation, Liu Zimo specially exchanged and obtained tens of thousands of "Satiety Pills" from the military headquarters, storing them in the "Eastern Pearl".
Otherwise, with so many people gathered together, even the issue of eating would be a big problem.
After traveling like this, stopping and going, it took most of the day for Liu Zimo to finally control the turtle and arrive at the capital city of Jinji Kingdom, Shijin City.
Habitually activating the "King's Spirit Crystal," Liu Zimo rapidly covered the entire city with the spiritual power aura from the "King's Spirit Crystal" accompanying his spiritual domain.
Soon, Liu Zimo saw over a hundred streams of light rushing towards him from all directions.
"One hundred and thirty-three devouring spirit larvae, twenty-one second-stage devouring spirit insects!"
"What a great harvest!"
Liu Zimo was in a great mood.
He didn't expect that by casting this net, he would catch so many big fish!
A total of one hundred and fifty-four devouring spirit insects!
It was not much different from the ones he caught in Longhu Mountain!
The only regret was that all these devouring spirit insects were either larvae or in the second stage. He hadn't encountered a king-level devouring spirit insect like Ling Lingyao, so his desire to obtain the second "King's Spirit Crystal" was directly frustrated.
Swish!
With a slight movement of his mind, Liu Zimo directly stored all the one hundred and fifty-four devouring spirit insects in his sea of consciousness, while killing them and taking their crystals.
Boom!
With the dissolution and nourishment of the bodies of the one hundred and fifty-four devouring spirit insects, Liu Zimo's sea of consciousness expanded by another thirty thousand meters!
His mental cultivation level instantly increased by more than one hundred and twenty years, and the strength of his divine soul soared, enhancing it by more than two hundred marks!
Waving his hand and storing all the crystals in the "Eastern Pearl," Liu Zimo's mood became even more beautiful.
Thinking of his other purpose for this trip, he flashed his figure and appeared directly in the embassy of the Kingdom of Daxia in the capital city of Jinji.
"Who?!"
As Liu Zimo entered the courtyard of the embassy without deliberately concealing his presence, he was immediately noticed by the embassy guards.
Dozens of heavy firearms were aimed at him in an instant.
A Martial Ancestor realm warrior, radiating a golden light, separated from the crowd and approached Liu Zimo, sternly questioning, "Who are you, and why did you trespass into our Great Xia embassy?"
Liu Zimo didn't rush to answer, but slowly raised his hand and lifted his coat, revealing the advisor badge that had been hanging on his chest all along.
He had already noticed that this Martial Ancestor realm warrior was not only a junior officer of the Military Affairs Department, but also had a token of the Internal Guards hidden at his waist.
If nothing unexpected happened, this should be the captain of the Internal Guards that General Wu sent to personally protect Ambassador Chu Duo.
To be able to raise his martial cultivation to the mid-stage of the Martial Ancestor realm in a foreign land without any resources, this Captain Xu could be considered a rare martial prodigy.
Liu Zimo's gaze swept over and saw the Crimson Flame Lock Shadow hanging above Captain Xu's head, nodding slightly.
With his Grandmaster qualification, compared to Yang Sisi in Luozhou City, he was not inferior at all.
Without much hesitation, Liu Zimo directly used his mind to bind Captain Xu as his "good brother".
【Binding successful! Your good brother Xu Zichuan is now online. Currently available binding targets (92/100)】
That's right.
Originally, the quota that was already one hundred percent complete became vacant again due to the unexpected deaths of a few "good brothers".
Whenever he saw a good seed, Liu Zimo would instinctively want to make the other person his own.
Snap!
The moment Captain Xu saw the advisor badge, his face suddenly changed, and his aura instantly converged.
At the same time, he stood up and raised his hand, excited and solemnly saluting Liu Zimo loudly, "Captain of the Third Internal Guards Company, Xu Zichuan, greetings to the instructor!"
Seeing Captain Xu's reaction, the other guards couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts. Without any hesitation, they quickly raised their guns and saluted Liu Zimo as well!
"Military Affairs Department's specially invited martial arts advisor, Liu Zimo, greetings to everyone!"
Liu Zimo also raised his hand in return, while also introducing himself.
In order to accelerate mutual trust, he even took out his identification documents and the special envoy visa signed by the Four Pillar Nations!
After doing all this, Liu Zimo swept his gaze and directly ordered Captain Xu without any politeness, "Captain Xu, where is Ambassador Chu now? Take me to see him!"
"Yes, Instructor Liu!"
Captain Xu first habitually saluted loudly, and then suddenly lowered his voice to report to Liu Zimo, "Instructor Liu, Ambassador Chu's current condition is not very good. He is hungry and sick, overworked and has been lying in bed for several days without getting up!"
Liu Zimo nodded slightly, not surprised.
Before leaving the country, he had already obtained detailed information about the ambassadors stationed in various embassies from Wu Songyang.
He had also heard a lot about Ambassador Chu Duo in the Kingdom of Jinji.
Although he held a prestigious position, he was not proficient in martial arts, and he was already over sixty years old with declining physical functions.
In this foreign land where food and various living supplies were extremely scarce, even a minor illness could develop into a life-threatening situation.
"Let's go, take me to see him!"
Liu Zimo calmly spoke and followed Captain Xu, entering the apartment building behind the embassy.
