arose, Shen Changqing dismissed it.>Open the door to the secret room.Then he arrived outside the Wugé.When the sunlight streamed in, it gave him a feeling of being in another world.This is not the fi...Last time I wiped out a Eternal Alliance stronghold, but because I didn't accept the mission beforehand, I ended up losing some honor points.

>

> The experience of the previous vehicle is a lesson for the next.

Shen Changqing felt he had to prepare in advance.

The old man looked silently at the person in front of him, feeling that he needed to reiterate what kind of strength the Eternal Alliance stronghold possessed.

“The Eternal Alliance is a powerful force formed by demons who have infiltrated the human race. Every stronghold of theirs has at least one cultivator at the Innate Realm, and there's even a possibility of stronger beings. Not even a Yellow-Rank Demon Slayer, let alone an Azure-Rank Demon Slayer, can be completely confident in wiping out a single stronghold.”

“I understand this matter naturally, but I still want to ask, if the Eternal Alliance stronghold is destroyed, how much merit will I get”

>

Shen Changqing repeated the question from before.

Seeing the other party so insistent, the old man also gave an answer.

"If it's really confirmed that there is indeed a base of the Eternal Alliance there, and you have the ability to wipe it out, then this mission will be considered overfulfilled, and you can earn an extra eight merit points."

This is a placeholder for a paragraph of text.

"An extra eight points, so combining that with the previous rewards, that's fifteen points of merit"

"Yes."

The old man nodded.

Although he didn't believe it, Shen Changqing had the strength to destroy the Everlasting Alliance stronghold.

Since the other party dared to say such things, their strength must not be underestimated.

It's just —

The elder glanced back at the memories in his mind, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't remember ever meeting Shen Changqing in the Huangjie Palace.

After all, any high-ranking yellow exorcist is a veteran.

But whenever one enters and exits the yellow-tiled halls, they will inevitably leave behind some impressions.

Maybe I'm getting old!

The other side.

Shen Changqing nodded: "Then I'll take on this mission. Thank you, Your Excellency."

"Good!"

The old man nodded, then wrote some information on the original paper and reminded him afterwards.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"If possible, you best not reveal your identity in front of those apprentice demon slayers, lest they develop a sense of complacency or reliance."

“No problem.”

Leaving the Huangjie Hall, Shen Changqing's hand held a document with a new mission.

>

This was his second mission after he had been assessed.

According to the original book, the normal Yellow Rank Exorcist missions and these novice exorcists' assessment missions are not difficult at all.

When compared to the first assessment task I executed, the differences are clearly evident.

Back to the courtyard.

Shen Changqing first went to look for Jiang Zuo.

>

He was from the Huangbu Exorcism Academy. Every time he executed a mission, he needed to report to the academy's administrator to determine his annual task quota.

If you do not report and simply go out to complete the mission, it will not be counted towards your annual task completion standard.

When Shen Changqing arrived.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

On the left bank of the river, the door was also opened.

> Come in.

After settling down, Shen Changqing looked at the person in front of him, his expression couldn't help but be puzzled.

"Is Elder Jiang injured"

In his perception, Jiang Zuo's aura fluctuated erratically, and although his clothes were clean after being washed, he could still smell the fresh metallic scent of blood on him.

Therefore, it can be seen.

The other party must be injured, that's why there's this fresh metallic smell of blood.

Upon hearing this.

"I can't help but smile wryly," Jiang Zuo said, "Yeah, I got hurt. Whether it's because the demons are rampant lately or if I just had terrible luck, several missions have thrown me into encounters with monsters far beyond the scope of my assigned tasks."

>

This time it was even worse, I even encountered a terrifyingly creepy monster.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Had it not been for a Demon Slayer of the Land Division nearby performing their duties, I might have fallen victim to that gruesome demon's clutches.

That's all.

Except for a wry smile, Jiang Zuo's heart also pounded with apprehension.

With Tianchawei's intelligence level, there's no way it could have such a big deviation.

It is a formidable and bizarre threat, also a significant hidden danger.

If mishandled, it could be enough to kill an entire city's population.

Speaking of.

These few missions have been quite bumpy. Whether it was encountering one kind of unexpected event or another, luckily my foundation is deep enough, otherwise the Huangbu Exorcism Institute would have to find a new headmaster.

"Terrifyingly eerie!"

Shen Changqing's face changed.

"Isn't it that every place has a Town Guardian overseeing it As long as a monstrous spirit of the Fiend level enters, wouldn't it attract the attention of the Town Guardian"

Though this is true, it's not necessarily so.

Jiang Zuo glanced at him and shook his head, explaining.

>The reason why a ferocious monster's appearance would be detected by the garrison commander first is that its sinister aura is powerful and almost impossible to conceal. As soon as a ferocious monster appears, the Heavenly Watchers in the area will inevitably sense it.

Once the news is reported, the garrison commander will naturally take action.

But not every time a terrifying apparition appears, will it be immediately suppressed.

>

If all the celestial guards in a place were destroyed, then the Demon Suppression Division would receive delayed information. Moreover, if a malevolent spirit of the Sha level had special means to conceal its sinister aura, it would also be difficult to detect.

However, over the years, the Demon Suppression Division has been very strict in its management of various regions. It is rare for a formidable ghost to infiltrate unnoticed.

That's all I have to say.

Jiang Zuo silently added in his heart: It's just an accident I encountered.

Before Shen Changqing could speak.

He said another thing.

"Moreover, in recent years, demons have been rampant, and the Demon Suppression Bureau has also suffered considerable losses. It is difficult to ensure that every region has enough garrisoned gods to guard it. Some places have a shortage of garrisoned gods, and there is bound to be laxity."

But in those places, geographical location didn't matter much; we called them all Wastelands.

The term "desolate realm" doesn't refer to a specific fixed location. It simply describes places where demonic entities run rampant, and powerful demons often appear. Those Demon Slayers at the Earth Rank and Heaven Rank primarily carry out their missions in these desolate realms.

Desolation!

Hearing this, Shen Changqing's mind understood a little more.

After thinking it over.

He opened his mouth and asked, "So there are quite a few people living in the desolate lands"

Of course.

“Now that the Demon Suppression Office isn't taking action, why not consider relocating the common people, concentrating them in one place Wouldn't it be easier to protect them that way”

Shen Changqing voiced his inner doubts.

The matter of the Demon Suppression Division's severely depleted strength, I've heard this many times already.

But as to the specific extent of the loss, to be frank, he had no concrete idea.

Jiang Zuo looked at him with strange eyes, seeming speechless.

You need to understand, those are all the territories of the Qin Empire. If you gather the people there, it would be equivalent to giving up those places. Although the barren land has few resources, it doesn't mean we should just abandon them.

>

Furthermore, if all the people were gathered together, other areas would undoubtedly become overcrowded and supplies of all kinds would be difficult to provide.

If there were no Wilderness as a buffer, if the demons and monsters launched a full-scale attack, once a place was breached, the losses would increase significantly.

Hearing this, Shen Changqing finally understood.

The existence of the barren land is very necessary.

This is to solidify the territory of the Qin state, and also to provide enough space for the people to survive.

The simplest and most straightforward.

That is to say, once the territorial range shrinks, food supply will also be significantly reduced.

Thus, there will certainly be many problems afterward.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Although the Demon Suppression Division is now weakened and unable to handle everything, it can at least ensure stability within the Qin Dynasty. If demons were to cause havoc, necessary losses would have to be endured.

>

Please provide me with the text you would like me to translate. I can help you with that!

Besides this.

Shen Changqing also understood another thing.

>

That's because the territory of Qin was vast. If it were truly necessary to relocate its people, it would be fraught with difficulties. Along the way, unforeseen incidents could easily result in the deaths of many civilians.

At this moment, hearing Jiang Zuo's words, he learned even more about the Qin Dynasty.

"This time you came here, it wouldn't just be to see me, would it Let's calculate the time, in about two months, it will also be time to execute the mission. Do you have any plans for when to start"

Jiangzuo asked about the Dao.

Qin Shujian nodded: "The main reason for my visit this time is because of this matter. I just went to Zhanyao Hall to receive the mission. This is some information about the mission. Please, Jiang Shi, register it."

He took the recorded mission information from his bosom and handed it directly to the other party.

Jiangzuo took it and flipped through it.

"This is a suspected Eternal Covenant stronghold. This mission is considered rather advanced even in the Yellow Rank, but for you, it shouldn't be a major issue. If you can truly uncover the exact location of the Eternal Covenant stronghold, with your strength, there's a high chance you could destroy it."

Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!

Last time you destroyed the Eternal Alliance stronghold in Lin'an City, you didn't receive extra merit points because you didn't accept the mission beforehand.

This time's mission has a connection to that. If you can wipe out the Eternal Alliance stronghold, even exceeding expectations, the reward will definitely be generous."

Jiang Zuo is very familiar with Shen Changqing's abilities.

The other party's talent is astounding.

Back then, over half a year ago, he was already a strong cultivator in the Innate First Realm. Now, after some time has passed, it's possible that he has even broken through to the Innate Outer Qi Realm.

Shen Changqing said, "I already made it clear when I accepted the mission."

"That's good."

Jiang Zuo passed the paper containing the information back.

The mission will be carried out in the Dahuang Prefecture, which is on the border of the Qin Dynasty. Although Jin City isn't entirely within the Dahuang Prefecture border, it's very close. You must be careful of barbarian tribes.

"Barbarians"

“Not bad!”

Jiang Zuo's face was slightly cold, as if he had a great aversion to this race.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Barbarians are a force outside the borders of the Qin Dynasty. They are savage and bloodthirsty, although they appear similar to humans on the surface. But in our eyes, they are nothing more than foreign barbarians."

Barbarians frequently invaded the borders of the Qin Dynasty and raided, causing significant losses to the Qin.

If there were no other constraints, Qin had long ago marched north and wiped out all those barbarians.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

"So—"

If you encounter barbarians in the Great Wilderness, show them no mercy. Kill all those you can. Do not hesitate because they appear similar to humans.

Over the years, a considerable number of Qin people have perished at the hands of barbarians.ion, is the self after reincarnation still oneselfThat's it.Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!Shen Changqing thinks it is open to debate.Therefore, the remnants of a powerfu...
