Make the family great again
The medieval battlefield was littered with corpses and the smoke of residual flames was still floating. Speculative and daring poor people and poor wandering knights wandered around the edge of the battlefield, searching for property from corpses and armor from dead knights, and dragging away dead horses as food.
"Hey, look! Old Simon has found another fat sheep!"
The barefoot old man with rotten and smelly teeth and wearing tattered brown linen clothes grabbed the body of the young boy whose armor had been stripped by the wandering knight. He touched the slippery skin of the corpse with his rough, ulcerated, black-dirty hands and grasped the boy's bloodstained golden hair, marveling at the luster of the hair. "It's obvious that he is a nobleman. He can still be sold for money after being stripped."
The blond boy did not close his blue eyes before he died. He stared at the old man blankly without any reaction.
The old man had no mercy on the corpse. He pulled out a rusty knife and cut off the boy's scalp. He hung the boy's bloody scalp with intact blond hair around his waist and then carried the body on his shoulders, intending to sell the body to someone with special fetishes for some money so that he could go to the tavern to get drunk with cheap alcohol and then find a cheap old prostitute to fuck her hard.
He carried the boy's body on his shoulders, and his drooping arms swayed with the old man's steps.
As the unknown soul entered, suddenly, the corpse's cold hands grabbed the old man's neck and pulled out his spine from behind.
The old man fell to the ground and his body fell to the ground with a thud.
The terrified old man was able to catch his breath for a short while, hoarsely making no sound.
He saw the corpse struggling to get up from the ground, and a terrifying smile appeared on its blood-stained face!
Those blue eyes slowly turned into cyan, filled with intense malice.
This must be a spell to resurrect the dead! Only a very evil witch would play with souls like this!
The old man screamed and took his last breath, scared to death.
Wu Ci, who was not very familiar with medieval words, looked at his simulated identity from a god's perspective. He scratched his head and felt blood on his hands. Only then did he realize that he had no scalp. He looked down and saw that the scalp of his simulated identity was hanging on the old man's waist...
This is not decent!
He hasn't even started working as 007 every day, but he already has no hair. Wu Ci absolutely cannot tolerate such disgrace!
He stretched out his hand, and a mouth full of sharp teeth opened in his palm. The flesh and blood of the old man's corpse melted into a ball of flowing blood mud and was completely swallowed up.
It is [filled with blood and flesh].
When the simulator establishes anchor points to simulate other eras, heroes from other eras cannot be brought in. This skill comes from the hero's original identity of the Wuci soul.
The only thing that can be seen about his true identity as a heroic spirit is his face. He was assigned to the Tianzun camp just because of his face. He was transformed from a waste with only the talents of "ordinary person" and "preaching" into a Tianzun divine favored one, and got three powerful skills that can be used at any time for free.
The time is too short, and he has not had enough time to practice the "Heavenly Starve Sutra", so now he is using the new talent [Blood and Flesh Infusion] that Tianzun opened to him after he obtained the Sui Gu Tian Dao. He did not expect that he could also use it in the Solomon period after crossing the long river of time and going back in time.
[Blood and Flesh Infusion] causes the body to automatically store the excess blood and flesh just devoured, consuming part of it to convert it into vitality, healing the original fatal injuries of the simulated identity, and allowing Wu Ci to regrow his scalp.
But perhaps because the soul was assimilating into the body, the newly grown hair was black.
The simulator just now initially hinted that there are witches and the Church in this world. So, because of his black hair, will he be considered a devil and be captured and burned to death?
Wu Ci rubbed his face and began to look at his simulated identity this time.
The face beneath the blood had deep features, showing that he was still young. His skin was smoother than the corpses and old men around him. His muscles were not very thick, but the lines showed obvious signs of training, most of which were the result of actual combat, and he had both explosiveness and flexibility.
Judging from the physical clues, Baron Foster was very good to his illegitimate son. There was no sign of hard work, long-term walking, lack of food and clothing, or poor living conditions.
This time, the simulator began by telling some information about the simulated identity. From this, we can infer that even if this illegitimate child cannot inherit the title and territory like the eldest son, he will be expelled after he reaches adulthood. He must have been equipped with attendants, war horses, and armor to take care of his daily life, hoping that he can participate in the Crusades and obtain fiefdoms.
But Wu Ci had nothing on him now. His armor might have been stripped away by wandering knights when he was lying dead on the battlefield. His horse, sword, money, and followers were all gone. He was left with only a thin undershirt and trousers.
After his death, perhaps all his belongings were collected by his followers or wandering knights?
Unless he followed a wealthy master or was a favored illegitimate son of a noble family like him, the followers and wandering knights who were equivalent to slaves were very poor, and few of them could afford armor and equipment. It was only natural that his fine equipment was stripped away.
Fortunately, he was left with a piece of clothing and pants, which allowed him to retain a little dignity for the time being. He did not wake up naked on the battlefield. He was only scalped.
Otherwise, with this delicate body, he might be spread apart and shot at by someone before he even regains consciousness.
[The world is in an uncertain situation. You appear on the battlefield with nothing. You decide:
A. Leave quickly
B. Searching for property
C. Preservation of flesh and blood
D. Condensation of "The Book of Heavenly Hunger"
F.Additional Souls
E. Personal Advent
Note: In this scenario, you can make multiple selections except option A.]
It was actually a multiple choice question? Wu Ci thought, this simulation seemed to be based on his personality. According to him, for the first option of the first round, F and E should be eliminated first. For A, leaving quickly would ensure safety, but it would be a bit of a loss.
As for the remaining options...
There is so much blood and malice on the battlefield. Given the right time, right place and right people, how could it be justified not to practice the "Heavenly Evil Sutra"?
Moreover, there are so many ownerless corpses and flesh on the battlefield. Is it reasonable not to store a wave of [Blood and Flesh Infusion] to provide a little more protection for your own life?
Also, he is now penniless and has no relatives. Even if he practices the [Heavenly Starve Sutra], he still needs to eat. With so many corpses, he will always be able to find some money.
If someone picks up ownerless property, it becomes his, and maybe he can even gain a large amount of initial capital to facilitate subsequent actions. Doesn't this make sense when searching for property?
With his current abilities, even though he is still a little weak when he first arrived, he should be able to survive against ordinary wandering knights. There is no need to be as cautious as Qian Chao in the first round.
Well, according to his personality, he would definitely want all three! A normal person would want all three, right?
"BCD!"
[You chose three options BCD at the same time, searching for property, storing flesh and blood, and refining the "Heavenly Starve Sutra"]
[You plundered the property while devouring the flesh and blood of the stored corpses. The blood and malice on the battlefield accelerated the operation of the "Heavenly Book". You found that the spiritual power of the Solomon period was far superior to that of the Qian Dynasty. The "Heavenly Book" progressed rapidly.]
[You killed many wandering knights and devoured a large number of corpses and blood on the battlefield, which soon attracted the attention of the Holy See Church.]
[You are being investigated by a special team of Holy See Knights]
You decide:
A. Kill the Knights of the Holy See
B. Mix in
C. Leave the battlefield quickly and go somewhere else
D. Sitting and talking
F. Increase Soul
E. Personal Coming
I would like to state in advance that Wu Ci is a respectable and polite person, and he likes to gain people's respect by speaking reason.
It was too barbaric to attack and kill without saying a word. It was troublesome to blend in with them. He left the battlefield quickly, which showed that he was afraid.
Moreover, his status as a Heavenly Lord's Favorite had just upgraded his Heroic Spirit's inherent talent, [Preaching]. The skill description remained unchanged, only the level had changed, and he had yet to try out its effects.
Is there an option to sit and discuss the truth? Then we must first explain the principle of sitting and discussing the truth!
"I choose D."
[You chose option D, sit down and talk]
Wu Ci probed his consciousness into the long river of time and space, using the contract evidence as an anchor to observe the surroundings of his simulated identity.
His simulated identity was lying among the dead bodies, with a team of five knights riding forward in front of him.
The five knights were equipped with medieval rapiers, wearing light silver chain mail, and helmets with red feathers on the top that covered most of their heads, leaving only a gap for their eyes and chins to see people.
The warhorse was not wearing armor, only the saddle seemed to have the mark of the Holy See, and it looked very light and fast. The soldiers should be scouts or vanguards.
But if he was not mistaken, the symbol of the Holy See was a black and white chess board with chips on it?
What does the Holy See mean by this symbol?
Wu Ci memorized the Holy Court's logo and looked down at his simulated identity as he began to preach to the five knights.
[You launched the talent [Preaching] on the "Holy Court Knights Special Team"]
[They are unmoved, just sitting on their horses and staring at you blankly]
Wu Ci frowned.
This is the first time that [preaching] doesn’t work, let alone this is the upgraded [preaching].
Was there a problem with Tianzun upgrading him? Or was it the problem of these knights?
He observed the riders sitting astride their horses with his awareness.
These knights... stood there motionless, saying nothing no matter how much they were hyped, as if they had no thoughts of their own.
They seemed to be very polite, waiting in a daze until Wu Ci's simulated identity finished speaking, and then they drew their swords as if they had received an order from a distance, "Heresy! Execution!"
[You find that the knights have no self-thoughts, so [preaching] is naturally useless]
[The Knight is about to execute you]
[You make a prompt decision and automatically jump to option A to kill the knight]
[Because of the rapid progress of "The Book of Heaven's Famine", you killed five knights without any harm and obtained their horses and items]
You decide:
A. Take all your belongings and leave quickly
B. Remain on the battlefield
C. Stay on the battlefield to observe the Holy See's response to this matter
D.Additional Souls
E. Personal Coming
I have taken the knights' things, and the things I have collected for so long. I will never be able to explain them clearly. I will first find a black market to deal with them. Now that I have some strength, I can't stay on the battlefield anymore. I have to find a way to make a name for myself and get the hero out as soon as possible!
[You chose option A and left quickly with all your belongings]
[You learned the information from the wandering knight you met before, sold the items you obtained at a discount on the black market, and after obtaining some starting funds, you decided to climb to a high position in this world first.]
[You understand that now, if you want to obtain a title, except for the eldest son of a noble family inheriting the title of his father, the only way is to participate in the Crusades.]
[You have used the activation funds to purchase the necessary armor, horses, and weapons to join the Crusades.]
[You originally planned to use the magic of Tianji Dao in the "Heavenly Scripture" to disguise your hair as golden and purchase a false identity as a noble illegitimate child, but you discovered that the people here actually believe that black hair is a symbol of nobility. Combined with your delicate and fair skin, they spontaneously guessed that you were of a noble family and directly asked you to join the Crusades.]
[You have gained great influence in the army and finally came into contact with the extraordinary power of this world. You have obtained the "Knight Training Method" that every family with knights has.]
Wu Ci put his mind to it and carefully observed the "Knight's Training Method" he had just obtained.
It seems to be a basic body-building exercise that absorbs spiritual energy through physical training.
Very basic and practical.
It can increase defense, physical fitness and physical strength.
If Tianjidao is an all-around mage who follows the thief style, Tentokuji is a controller who can heal himself. This one is a pure main tank, with a very long health bar, specializing in his own resistance and physical attack.
Very good. It can be used as material to be integrated into "The Book of Heavenly Famine" and becoming a hexagonal warrior is just around the corner.
[You find that the knights in the Crusades can communicate normally, which is very different from the rigid Knights of the Holy See you met at the beginning.]
【Through the training of "Heavenly Starvation Sutra", you are stronger than other knights, but you have not yet discovered other extraordinary powers in this world. You think it is better to be cautious. First, you get a small title to understand the situation and then plan other things to make a big fuss.
So you didn't try hard to attract attention, you just followed the team on the expedition, conquered the foreign capital of Carnia, and within a year you were rewarded with merit and the title of Viscount, and were given a fiefdom next to a forest.]
[The Baron next door comes to visit]
[You discovered that this baron is the father of your simulated identity, Baron Forster]
[You were in the simulated identity for a short time. Only your hair and eye color changed. Your skin became more delicate and paler due to the assimilation of the Heroic Spirit's characteristic [Weakness]. That's why Baron Foster recognized you.]
[He is very pleased with your achievements. In order to make the family further, he wants to recognize you as his son and merge your territory at this time. He also wants to marry you to a wealthy and powerful widowed marquise, so that your family can obtain the lady's territory and make the glory of the Forster family great again.]
Wu Ci was drinking water at first, but when he saw the text displayed by the simulator, he started coughing.
What a bold idea! The old Baron had set his sights on his property and was planning to sell him off to a wealthy woman whose husband had died!
It was well known that the nobles of this period were extravagant, and those who wanted to seize the property of widows would often come up with shady tricks.
I originally thought that the original body's father liked the original body very much, and that love is an investment or gamble mixed with the exchange of interests.
If he had been a filial son and was willing to be sold out because of his father's kindness to him, he might have been killed in a group party hosted by that lady the next day, or he might have died unexpectedly together with the marquise. Then, his father, the baron, would have inherited everything they had and left the territory to his eldest son born to his legal wife, making the "glory" of the Folster family "great" again.
