2070 Defensive Area Commander (1)
Choosing to exchange for memory fragments and not other items was a decision that Tang Zhen had made long ago.
He had the ability to create things with his will, so it was not worth it to use his battle credits to exchange for items.
The problem was that, due to his realm, he could easily produce ordinary items. However, when he produced special and precious items, he would still have to expend a lot of energy.
For example, he could materialize the armored cannon chariot in a moment, but it would take a long time to materialize the giant tree puppet.
This was because when Tang Zhen conjured items, he used the energy from his mental world. It was similar to Origin Energy and was completely different from ordinary heaven and earth energy.
Moreover, the energy of heaven and earth in the world of his mind wasn’t endless. It still needed to evolve and perfect all things, so there was no surplus at all.
If the extraction state was maintained for a long time, it would more or less affect the construction of the mind world.
If it was more serious, it might even affect the advancement of his realm, and even leave behind irreparable hidden dangers.
Although Tang Zhen was unable to accurately judge the changes in his body due to his memories, he was still able to make a basic judgment.
Therefore, in the near future, he might use his Battle Points to exchange for special items to reduce the energy extraction from his mind world.
As for ordinary items, he could still obtain them through his thoughts. This level of consumption was completely acceptable.
After making up his mind, Tang Zhen said to the spiritual envoy, I need to exchange for a memory fragment. At the same time, I have a request. Help me choose a defensive area with more monsters and fewer believers.
Tang Chen’s request clearly meant that he had already made up his mind to obtain as many battle merits as possible.
Although there were many sea monsters in the previous defense area, they could not meet his requirements at all.
The spirit didn’t hesitate and quickly replied, ” “Your battle credits have been deducted, and your memory fragments have been extracted. You can absorb them at any time.
If you want to hunt more sea monsters, then defense area 153 is very suitable for you. It was attacked by sea monsters some time ago, and all the believers in charge of guarding it were killed.
It was one of the most dangerous areas, and the frequency of attacks there was three times that of the other areas. However, the rewards were also more generous.
If you want to go there, I can arrange for you to go there now as a commander.
At the same time, I can also give you a certain amount of authority to transfer manpower from nearby areas, but the number can not exceed 5000.
If you want more manpower, you’ll have to wait for new believers to enter. It’ll take at least a hundred days to restore the full establishment.”
Tang Zhen nodded in agreement. In this case, he would be able to go all out.
In particular, his position as the commander could allow him to gain real power earlier and facilitate the implementation of his plan.
To a newcomer, Tang Zhen could be said to have reached the heavens in a single step. He had only participated in one battle and had directly obtained the position of commander.
This was basically impossible in the other defense zones, not to mention that he had some special authority.
If the commanders of the other defense areas were like this, the believers would fight for it even if they had to break their heads.
The reason why the spiritual envoy had entrusted him with such an important task was indeed because he had enough military achievements and was qualified to be promoted to an officer.
According to the rules, one only needed 10000 battle merits to be promoted to an officer, and the reward for killing sea monsters would also be slightly higher.
As the military merits accumulated, the officer’s rank would also get higher and higher, and the authority and benefits he would have would also increase.
Tang Zhen was different. Because of his status as a spiritualist, he was able to obtain all the benefits that a commander could enjoy in one go.
The military merits that Tang Zhen had obtained in one go was sufficient for him to be promoted by several ranks. In the 153rd defense area, which was filled with newcomers, it was more than enough for him to be the commander.
However, the main reason was that his strength had been acknowledged by the spiritualist. Compared to ordinary believers, Tang Zhen’s strength was already much stronger.
For a special existence like him, it wouldn’t be wrong to say that he could fight against ten thousand people alone, so he naturally couldn’t stick to the old rules.
Therefore, after Tang Zhen made his request, the spiritual envoy immediately agreed and also gave him enough power.
Just like what the spirit envoy had said earlier, as long as Tang Zhen killed enough monsters, it would definitely not be stingy with the rewards.
Amidst the flickering light, two items slowly appeared and floated in front of Tang Zhen.
Tang Zhen glanced at it. One of the items was the token of the defense area’s commander. The holder could obtain the temple’s recognition and use special authority.
As for the other item, it looked like a beautiful jade with liquid flowing inside. This was Tang Zhen’s sealed memory.
“I wonder if you’ve read through my memories before I was sealed?”
Tang Zhen looked at the memory fragment and asked the spiritual envoy.
don’t worry. I won’t translate the memory fragments of any believer in case the evil thoughts and demons are released and cause unnecessary danger.
The memories of a powerhouse like you are even more untouchable. Otherwise, if your heart’s devil and evil thoughts go out of control and turn into monsters, it will definitely cause a disaster!”
Tang Zhen nodded his head. If he were to judge based on his previous speculations, the spiritualist’s words should not be false.
The God’s kingdom had summoned the fanatical believers here mainly because their faith was firm, and they had relatively fewer inner demons and evil thoughts.
After the memory was broken and sealed, even if it could be exchanged for by the believers again, because only a part of it could be obtained at a time, the inner demons and evil thoughts would be easily suppressed and cleared by the believers.
The spiriters did not dare to read the memory fragments of their believers because there were too many of them. It would be very troublesome if they were contaminated over time.
Moreover, the main purpose of summoning believers was to eliminate sea monsters, not to invade their privacy.
These were just Tang Zhen’s guesses. However, Tang Zhen would never believe that the spiritual envoy had never looked through the memory fragments.
Of course, this wasn’t the time to be thinking about these questions.
He used his hand to pick up the memory fragment. Soon after, the item was like a melting ice cube. It quickly turned into smoke and entered Tang Zhen’s body.
In his mind, many memories of the past immediately appeared. Perhaps it was because he had lost them and regained them, but he actually gave people a strange feeling.
It was as if he was watching a movie, and the protagonist of the movie was his familiar yet strange self.
After being silent for a few breaths, Tang Zhen grabbed the token in front of him and ended the conversation.
The cluster of light that covered his body scattered. Tang Zhen turned around and walked out of the square, only to see that the believer who had chatted with him earlier was currently standing at the edge of the square.
The leather armor that he was wearing had disappeared. In its place was a pure black robe that looked like silk.
Even though his body didn’t move, the robe still trembled like water. Runes were like leaves falling into the water, appearing and disappearing on the surface of the robe.
With just a glance, he could confirm that this was definitely not an ordinary item. It must have consumed a lot of battle merits.
After seeing Tang Zhen, the other party waved his hand. He seemed to be in a good mood.
The believer frowned after seeing that Tang Zhen was still wearing his original armor. He thought for a moment before saying, if I’m not wrong, you should have exchanged your Battle Points for memory fragments. This is what every newcomer does.
This kind of feeling was understandable, but from a practical point of view, it was obviously very irrational.
As one’s battle merits were limited, it was impossible to obtain all the memories. The memory fragments that were exchanged for were also random, and it was unknown if they were valuable.
If you waste your points like this, it’ll affect the advancement of your strength and put yourself in danger. So, it’s best not to do this in the future.”
Perhaps it was due to the fact that Tang Zhen was a newbie and didn’t understand the relationship between the two parties that the other party kindly reminded him.
To ordinary believers, these words were priceless advice that could save them from many detours.
However, Tang Zhen was different from the other believers. Not only did he have to retrieve all the memory fragments, but he also had to earn enough battle merits to exchange for an opportunity to advance his realm.
