BXBX NOVEL Chapter 28: Chapter 28 The Great Xia's Rivers and Mountains Remain Unscathed, How Could We Lack Those Who Dare to Die?
It was only because, at the time, although he was worth billions, he was still a commoner, with too little power.
This time, however, the Fasting Pills that Su Xing concocted held great significance for the Great Xia Country, earning him this rare opportunity.
Su Xing took a deep breath and continued the simulation.
[The military bigwig meeting you is an old man, and you're surprised to find you've seen him on the news before. The leader, named Lu Yuanwu, is a powerhouse of Martial Emperor level!]
[The leader warmly greeted you and asked how many Fasting Pills you could produce in a day.]
[Over the years, your alchemy skills have improved, and you are confident that you could produce fifty Fasting Pills in one day, given that these are the lowest level elixirs.]
[Upon hearing this number, the leader slightly frowned, saying the amount was still too small. He wanted to inquire about the method of concocting Fasting Pills and proposed that he could fulfill any of your requests, as long as you were willing to share the formula.]
[Without hesitation, you handed over the formula for the Fasting Pill since you knew that only you could concoct them. Not to mention that the Spirit Rice is a rarity in the mortal world, even if you provided the Spirit Rice, ordinary people lacking the Li Fire Technique could never manage to concoct it.]
[As expected, Lu Yuanwu came to you again a few days later. He let you rest easy in producing the Fasting Pills as the people he arranged couldn't even begin to concoct such elixirs.]
[You put forth your request; you wanted to delve into the subsidiary of Demon-Subduing Pass.]
[Lu Yuanwu hesitated upon hearing this, stating that the subsidiary of Demon-Subduing Pass was far too dangerous, and with your ability, you would surely die inside.]
[But at your insistence, Lu Yuanwu agreed to your request, on the condition that you not go to the frontlines. You were only allowed to concoct pills in the safe zone within Demon-Subduing Pass City, and he dispatched three Grandmaster Level powerhouses and one Heavenly King Level warrior to protect you personally.]
[The next day, you entered Demon-Subduing Pass alongside a group of professionals.]
[Observing the professionals around you, they seem familiar. Upon careful inquiry, you're surprised to discover many of them are students who graduated from Kyoto Professional University, and even a good number of teachers from there.]
Su Xing nodded at this, considering the trajectory of his future in the simulator, he would still spend five or six years at Kyoto Professional University. In total, he would have been there for about a decade.
He must have interacted with a considerable number of junior students during those years.
And after thirteen years, those juniors would have most likely become powerhouses at Master Level, Grandmaster Level, or even higher levels.
[After inquiring, you understand that the situation at Demon-Subduing Pass has been deteriorating over recent years. Not only are professionals above Grandmaster Level required to enter, but even those at Master Level have yearly tasks within the pass.]
[You step into the subsidiary of Demon-Subduing Pass, where everything seems no different from the real world.]
[The only exception is a huge transparent dome in the sky, this magical dome covering the entirety of Demon-Subduing Pass.]
[You realize there are no ordinary people in Demon-Subduing Pass, the weakest, apart from you, all possess strength above Master Level.]
[You've been assigned to a nondescript small courtyard in the rear of Demon-Subduing Pass, and right next door to you lives Lu Yuanwu, with a Heavenly King Level warrior stationed close by for your protection.]
[You are not allowed to go to the frontline, instead, you spend every day in the courtyard concocting pills, and the majority of your requests are met.]
[You focus on producing Fasting Pills, ensuring a yield of fifty per day.]
[Half a year quickly passed, and through your relentless efforts and improvements, you managed to increase the speed of your Fasting Pill production, yielding sixty pills per day.]
[All the Fasting Pills you made each day were sent to the front lines, but Lu Yuanwu expressed that this number was still merely a drop in the bucket for all the warriors at the front.]
[You were displeased in your heart, feeling that you were already doing your utmost in pill-making but still couldn't satisfy the military's demand, as if you had become a heartless alchemy machine.]
[One night, while no one around was paying attention, you quietly headed towards the walls of Demon-Subduing Pass.]
[The city you were in was called the City of Doom, which was roughly the size of Kyoto City. Demon-Subduing Pass was in the north of the city, while your previous location was in the south.]
[So, taking advantage of the night, you hurried towards the north of the city. As you moved further north, you found fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road; even if there were occasional passersby, they were mostly in a rush, clad in armor, with weapons in hand.]
[You were fast, and after half an hour, you arrived at the base of Demon-Subduing Pass, and for the first time, you were astounded by the sight in front of you.]
[This might no longer be a city in the conventional sense, for the city walls were a thousand zhang high, and standing at the base of the wall and looking up, you couldn't see the top at all.]
[You blended in with a group of professionals heading up to the wall and mounted the ramparts of Demon-Subduing Pass.]
[Along the way, you saw many professionals who were dying or grievously injured being carried down, as priests and healers incessantly poured healing potions into their mouths, but most professionals still couldn't be saved.]
[You eventually climbed onto the wall of Demon-Subduing Pass, which was much wider than you had imagined, easily a hundred zhang wide, practically resembling a large plaza.]
[Many professionals were busy on the wall, with the sounds of artillery fire and cries for help occasionally reaching your ears.]
[You saw spell after spell striking out towards the wilds beyond the pass, shimmering like fireworks, and also saw many modern missile weapons roaring madly.]
[You calmed yourself and slowly walked to the edge of the wall.]
[You witnessed an unforgettable scene: on the boundless wilderness in the distance, tiny dots were scattered everywhere like ants – they were the bodies of human race professionals.]
[And upon that wilderness, there were countless grotesque, ghastly beasts, some as tall as kilometers and even the smaller ones reaching tens of meters in height.]
[The presence of these giant beasts almost made you lose your footing.]
[At that moment, you saw an older professional bellow and leap off the Demon-Subduing Pass with dozens of professionals.]
[You understood that they were using their lives to prevent the giant beasts from breaking through the Demon-Subduing Pass.]
[Unsurprisingly, a mere few dozen Grandmaster Level professionals were completely incapable of stopping these terrifying beasts.]
[But there were more and more professionals jumping off the walls, betting their lives, including Grandmasters and even Heavenly Kings... The lives of hundreds of professionals piled up, and the assault of these giant beasts was temporarily thwarted.]
[You were tremendously shocked; you had been focused on alchemy for the past half year, but only now did you understand the true reality of Demon-Subduing Pass.]
[Just then, a figure appeared behind you—it was Lu Yuanwu. He let out a slight sigh, patted your shoulder, and spoke words you would never forget.]
[He said, "As long as Great Xia's lands remain intact, why would we lack those who dare to die?"]
