Chapter 123 Oil Pan

The shark soldier Liu Zhengyun failed to frame Zhou Jin and decided to praise Zhou Jin. He suggested to his superiors that Zhou Jin skip the scale crowd and jump directly into the armored soldiers. However, the leaping armored soldiers requires three tests. The previous two tests were extremely sinister and hidden murderous intentions. But to everyone's surprise, Zhou Jin passed successfully. Liu Zhengyun was anxious and decided to take a gamble.

The twelve-fingered piano ghost Lin Rusen quickly finished playing the song. Shen Qingyu, who was tested, looked radiant and had reached her best condition and even had a breakthrough.

When Shen Qingyu came to an end, she couldn't help but look at Zhou Jin and found that Zhou Jin looked calm. Shen Qingyu had heard the song and recalled Zhou Jin's previous experience on the court. He could also figure out the test just now targeted Zhou Jin. Maybe he took a ride and took advantage of it.

Zhou Jin has certainly known that others can think of it for a long time. Of course, he must keep this account in mind, but now he is looking forward to the next test.

After Lin Rusen played two songs, he greeted the examiners and left on his own. The two beautiful young women who had led them into the door invited everyone to a side hall, and gave them tea and snacks to rest.

The examiner Shi Huchuan had no intention of leaving, so he sat there quietly. Everyone had their own thoughts and didn't say anything. Zhou Jin knew very well about the situation at the moment. Shi Huchuan must have waited for the person who reported the news to come back and see what arrangements were there.

"Zhou Jin, what level are you in the 'Thick Soil Realm' now? Mud or Raw Stone?" Zhu Mei, a shark, suddenly asked.

Although he didn't know Zhu Mei's identity, Zhou Jin could also analyze from everyone's attitude that the woman had the highest status in the field, and he would definitely answer.

However, how to answer it made Zhou Jin a little difficult, because he didn't know his current specific martial arts realm, so it was impossible to repeat the mysterious old man's words. Zhou Jin hesitated for a while and had an idea. He said, "The lower part is already the peak of 'thick soil into mud', and perhaps he has broken through to the realm of 'life stone'!"

It is always not harmful to say that the realm is lowered, at least it can confuse the enemy. The shark Zhu Mei just nodded and didn't say anything again. In fact, Zhu Mei was very confused. Zhou Jin said that he had "a thick soil and stones" and his condition was indeed similar, but Zhu Mei always felt something was wrong, and he couldn't describe what was wrong.

What everyone did not expect was that when he heard Zhou Jin's answer, Shen Qingyu from the Black Blood Yellow Sand Rider couldn't help it. He stood up and shouted: "How is it possible? I have already 'thick soil and stones'. But look at the previous two tests, how much better you are than me, how could you be in this realm!"

No wonder Shen Qingyu couldn't help it. After two tests, whether in the corridor or listening to piano music, Zhou Jin showed an overwhelming advantage over him. Such a person actually said that the martial arts realm has reached the level of "thick soil and stones". This is equivalent to slapping himself in the face directly. Shen Qingyu really couldn't stand it.

Zhou Jin glanced at Shen Qingyu, shook his head and said, "Do I need to lie?"

After being asked this, Shen Qingyu had nothing to say. Shark Soldier Zhu Mei didn't know how to talk about it. She just nodded and commented: "I'm about to break through the 'thick soil realm', and being a soldier is completely qualified."

After saying this, Zhu Mei didn't say anything, and the room fell silent again. Zhou Jin couldn't help but sigh that the scaled shark guard was indeed amazing. At this level, he could already be called a strong man in Black Stone City and the Five City Alliance. He never thought that the scaled shark guard could only be considered qualified.

At this moment, the soldier who went out to report the news ran into the room. After entering the room, he went straight to Shi Huchuan and leaned into Shi Huchuan's ear and whispered.

Zhou Jin listened attentively, but the angle was wrong, and the voice of the soldier was very low again, so he could only hear a few intermittent words "Boss Liu's oil", "test ground", "preparations over there", etc.

Although he didn't know what they were talking about, Zhou Jin could infer that the third test was extraordinary, because Shi Huchuan's face had changed. When the soldier who reported the news finished whispering, Shi Huchuan asked in shock: "Lao Liu, is it true?"

"Of course it's true!" The soldier said firmly. Shi Huchuan stood up, looked at Zhu Mei, and then said to Zhou Jin and Shen Qingyu: "The third test is at the test site of Chengnan Port, come with me."

"Trial ground for Chengnan Port?" Before everyone could move, the shark man Zhu Mei asked, with questions on her face. The soldier Changshi Huchuan replied solemnly: "Yes, it is our scale shark guard's trial ground!"

Shark Zhu Mei wanted to say something, but she still didn't speak. She knew that the trial field was terrible, but it was within the scope of the test. She was not an examiner, and she had no right to question it.

But when everyone walked out, Shark Zhu Mei glanced at Zhou Jin and thought to herself that this young man had created two miracles, and maybe he could create the third time.

The three tests of the leap have been conducted twice. Although the candidates feel like they are living in it, there is actually not much time passed, and the Northern Region Blue Port has just become lively.

We have crossed the Northern Region Blue Port twice, and it is now the third time. Just looking at this distance, it will also consume a lot of money for the warriors, but Zhou Jin and Shen Qingyu have been replenished in one way or another after each test, with sufficient strength, so there is naturally no problem with running like this.

But unlike the previous two times, during this third crossing, Shi Huchuan and his men did not gallop on horseback, but instead controlled their speed and walked very slowly.

Shen Qingyu was very strange about this action, but Zhou Jin understood very well that the first two rushes were to consume his own strength, and the third slow walk was to make the trial field more fully prepared.

The name of the trial field sounds very big, but it must be a big deal to see Zhu Mei’s reaction. Zhou Jin is very curious and looking forward to what it is.

Those who want to conspire to frame Zhou Jin must have never expected that Zhou Jin will treat these life and death tests with a viewing and playful mentality!

This time I went to the beach, but it was two directions from the first test. The beach fortress I tested was relatively remote and desolate, but this time it became more and more lively.

Since the examiners did not gallop, Zhou Jin also had time to carefully observe the surroundings. There were shops, workshops, warehouses, and pedestrians with luxurious clothes and poor people with ragged clothes and faces of vegetables. This is found in every prosperous place. In addition to local poor people, there are also barbarians with extremely tall and burly eyes, and island natives with strange patterns on their bodies. Residents from all over the southern and northern regions appear in this port.

The sea of ​​heaven separates the southern and northern regions. Such a port is equivalent to a hub connecting two places. Naturally, people from all over the world can be seen and goods from all over the world can be bought.

Zhou Jin also saw the warriors of the Lieyang Empire wearing a full set of armor, the warriors of the Great God Sect with long robes on the armor, and people from all walks of life in the southern region.

The Northern Region is divided and occupied by various forces of families, sects and guilds, intertwined with each other, fighting and checking and balancing, and there is no huge force. However, the Southern Region is different. The Southern Region has the Lieyang Empire and the Great Sect of the Gods, and the rest of the parties can only survive in the gap between these two forces.

The strength of the Northern Region Blue Port is already pretty good in the Northern Region, but compared with the Lieyang Empire in the Southern Region, it is just equivalent to the other party's city. In such a city, there are no less than a hundred Lieyang Empire! The strength of the Lieyang Empire can be imagined, and the Jue Shen Cult is no less than the Lieyang Empire.

Zhou Jin remembered it very clearly that at that time, the heroes of the Southern Region besieged Yun Tianzong, and the Lieyang Empire and the Jue Shen Cult were all involved, and they were also the leader.

But Zhou Jin also clearly understood the situation. With his current strength, he could only think about it, but Zhou Jin has already remembered it firmly and will never forget it.

Because it is separated by the sea of ​​heaven and the Northern Region also has its own strong men and forces, it is difficult to extend the powerful forces of the Southern Region. Therefore, the warriors of the Lieyang Empire and the warriors of the Great Sect of the Jue God are just travelers in this Northern Region Blue Port.

Zhou Jin and his party had already arrived at the port. There was a strong fishy smell in the air, with the smell of sea breeze and the smell of fish and shrimps on the fishing boats.

They also saw the huge ships moored in the port. The members of the scaled shark guards were already commonplace, while Shen Qingyu looked very stunning. Zhou Jin could already see where the ships moored in the port came from, and even belonged to that force. He followed Yun Tianzong back then, and he did all the things that collected information.

Shi Huchuan, who was leading the way in front, turned to one side and walked a few steps. Zhou Jin noticed that Shi Huchuan looked up at the distance and looked at the examiner's gaze. He could find that someone waved to Shi Huchuan in front of a building gate not far away.

Of course, the officer of the scaled shark guard would not be unaware of the road. Zhou Jin immediately knew the intention of waving his hand. He thought hello and told Shi Huchuan that everything he should prepare was ready.

As for whom this preparation is targeted, Zhou Jin knows it must be targeted by him.

As expected, after seeing the waving man, soldier Changshi Huchuan accelerated his speed and soon came to the door.

The gate is very wide, allowing four-wheeled carts to carry heavy objects to pass through. In addition to this gate, the building is surrounded by high walls, and arrow towers and fortifications can be seen at key points. However, this is not the eye-catching place, but the windmills that are higher than the high walls inside. The windmills are huge, and each blade is five feet long and slowly rotates under the blowing of the sea breeze.

From the outside, the building seemed to be a workshop for producing something. Zhou Jin was thinking about it, but found that Zhu Mei, a shark man riding a horse, looked back at him, with a little regret and pity in his eyes.

It seems that this test is not easy, and his performance next shocked Zhu Mei because a smile appeared on Zhou Jin's face.

Even if I don’t know how terrible this test is, seeing this strange building will make people oppressed, which makes people feel nervous and worried. But Zhou Jin actually smiled, and the smile was full of curiosity and expectation, but there was nothing to be afraid.

When Zhou Jin and his team came over, the door opened inward. As soon as Zhou Jin and his team entered the door, they felt a wave of heat coming.

The weather has become cold for a long time, and with the strong wind in Shanghai, ordinary people will feel the cold. It doesn’t matter if the warrior is not afraid of cold and heat, but it is still strange to feel the heat waves in front of this door.

When you walk through the door, you will know the reason. Judging from the layout of this yard, it is no different from the store's cargo yard. There are open spaces for stacking goods and warehouses for storing goods, but there are also different places. There is a large pot in the center of this yard, and the fire is on the bottom of the big pot.

This big pot is not a big pot in the ordinary sense. The diameter of the pot mouth is ten steps, and the bottom of the pot is as high as the person. Below the pot is a pot made of huge stones. The height of the pot must exceed Zhou Jin.

But huge is not an attractive place. The pot is not made of steel and metal, but a splicing of several materials.

The frame of the giant pot is a kind of bone, which looks like a fish bone, but the bone is as thick as a person's arms, and the fish bone is almost as thick as a waist. You can imagine how huge the fish is.

Several fish bones and fish bones are spliced ​​together to form the shape of a basket. The grid of this "basket" is inlaid with pieces of deep-sea glass and connected with the fish bones with gold wire and silver nails. The pot is actually transparent, and through the glass you can see the scene in the pot.

The huge shells of deep sea have grown to a certain age. The shells are as big as tabletops and will become completely transparent. This is a top-notch jewelry material. Rich families will use these giant shells to inlaid in windows and patios to increase lighting. Unexpectedly, they are used to make pots here.

There were six soldiers from the scales next to the giant pot, constantly adding fuel, and pieces of fist-sized charcoal were filled into the stove. The charcoal was more powerful than firewood, which was also the reason for the heat waves in the yard.

Zhou Jin observed with interest everywhere. These things were something he had never heard of before. Zhou Jin felt a little regretful when he thought about this. He should have stayed in the Northern Region Blue Port for a while. There were too many strange and interesting things here.

The big pot is empty and the firepower is constantly increasing. You can see that the fish bones as the frame of the giant pot gradually change color. The fish bones are very special. Other bones will turn black and zoom when the flames are roasted, while the fish bones will gradually turn white and even become more crystal clear.

The change in the color of the fish bone should represent a state. A Linzhong glanced at it and immediately shouted loudly: "Okay, pour oil!"

The warehouse door opened, and a wooden rack with wheels was pushed out. On the wooden rack were two big men, and four large water tanks were placed with iron lids on the water tank.

The wooden rack pushed to the edge of the iron pot. Two big men opened the lid and poured the things from the water tank into the giant pot. The water tank contained transparent and sticky liquid. After pouring it into the pot, a pungent fishy smell immediately spread, as if the smell of the fish and shrimp that had rotted for a long time.

No one expected that this would suddenly smell. Zhou Jin and Shen Qingyu couldn't help but cover their noses, but they were very adaptable to the others, and even looked at the things in the pot with all their attention.

A total of sixteen tanks were poured down, and the giant pot was filled. The people below added more charcoal to help burn. As the temperature continued to rise, the pungent smell began to disappear, and the transparent liquid in the pot began to boil. Unlike when the water boiled, the liquid in the pot was smokeless and airless, and it kept rolling.

At this moment, the body of the giant pot also began to change, and the snow-white fish bones that formed the giant pot also began to change, but this change was not charred by high temperature, but turned into a blood-red color.

There are all kinds of creations in heaven and earth. Zhou Jin saw it with relish, while Shen Qingyu beside him became more and more nervous. Their performance was seen by the people around him. Shark Zhu Mei sighed in her heart, thinking that it would be a pity if such a calm and calm young man could not pass this test.

Zhou Jin's performance made the examiners very angry. Shi Huchuan stared at Zhou Jin and gritted his teeth and whispered: "You can't be proud for too long!"

After saying this, Zhou Jin's eyes suddenly looked over. The two of them looked at each other. The soldier Changshi Huchuan felt that the other party's eyes could see through everything. He lowered his head guiltily. After Shi Huchuan lowered his head, he immediately reacted. He felt something guilty. This feeling made him even more angry. He looked up and said loudly: "This is the third test!"

Seeing Shi Huchuan pointing at the giant pot filled with boiling liquid, Zhou Jin and Shen Qingyu were both stunned. No matter whether they were calm or nervous, they were always surprised when facing such a thing.

"You are now part of the Scale Armored Shark Guard, but you have been here for too short, and you don't know many things about the Scale Armored Shark Guard." Shi Huchuan suddenly changed the topic, but Zhou Jin knew that the other party was introducing the reason for this test.

"Many people outside say that the origin of the name Scale Armor Shark Guard is because we rely on the sea and get fish scales. This statement is not wrong, but the real origin is not this. The reason why we have the word Scale is because our Scale Armor Shark Guard has real scales on our bodies!" Shi Huchuan continued.

Zhou Jin suddenly became interested. This was the first time he heard about this detail. When Shi Huchuan said this, he rolled up his sleeves and could see Shi Huchuan inhaling and exercising his skills. A layer of fine scales appeared on Shi Huchuan's skin, wrapping him up.

The person suddenly grows with fish scales, and the scene does not look comfortable, but when the scales are covered with the body, the scales disappear, but there is a metal-like luster shining on the skin.

"'Scale Armor True Transmission' is the secret method of the Scale Armor Shark Guard. After practicing this skill, your body will become extremely tough, and your defense ability will be increased by more than 50%. At the same time, your dantian Qihai and meridians can accommodate more internal energy and true qi. If you go to the circular corridor after practicing it, you will get real benefits!"

Shi Huchuan's words made Zhou Jin and Shen Qingyu change their faces. If the examiner's description is correct, there is no need to say the obvious benefits of enhancing defense in the martial arts "Scale Armor True Transmission". The one that accommodates more internal strength and true energy is to improve the potential of the warrior.

Most of the world's warriors have been practicing hard all their lives, but in the end they are unable to break through a certain realm. It is not that he does not work hard, nor that he does not have enough understanding, but that his talent and potential are all limited. However, the characteristic of this "Scale Armor True Transmission" can clearly increase the upper limit, which is indeed extremely rare.

Although Zhou Jin and Shen Qingyu's talent is enough, it does not mean that this kind of martial art is not precious!

"The scaled shark guards guard guards the Northern Region Blue Port. Among the various forces around the Blue Port, the scaled shark guards have the smallest number of people. Why can they still maintain deterrence? It is because the scaled shark guards are a whole. This whole is not a description, but a real whole. Whether the scaled shark guards fight, they have corresponding formations. In this formation, the high-level personnel of the scaled shark guards will be strengthened, and the combat power of the entire team will be doubled, but all this requires a premise. Only when you know the "Scale Armor True Transmission" can you integrate into the formation and be strengthened." Shi Huchuan's introduction is really a long story.

However, Zhou Jin immediately figured out why Shi Huchuan explained for so long. The soldier was waiting for someone to come, so he used the explanation to delay the time.

But the theory mentioned by the Arc soldier Changshi Huchuan is correct. Yun Tianzong and Zhou Jin have learned about the general composition of the scale armored shark guards. There was once a vivid metaphor: the scale crowd is the sea, the team A is the wave, the shark soldiers are the sharks, and the guard general is the sea beast, and the commander is the sea dragon.

During combat, the scaled shark guards are like fish in the "sea", while the enemy will be drowned by the sea and will be surrounded and restricted by the sea.

If the scaled shark guard can do this, there must be a special secret to the secret of the method, but I didn’t expect to hear it today.

Zhou Jin also speculated that the methods practiced by Lin Zhong, Team A, Shark Soldiers and General Wei were different to ensure that they played a role in their respective positions.

Shi Huchuan's words are not over yet: "What are the high-level personnel of the scaled shark guard? This includes the armored soldiers, shark soldiers and guard generals. Speaking of which, you can't pass this test and you can also be promoted from scale crowd to armored soldiers, but the future of the scaled shark guard is limited to this and will never be improved."

Zhou Jin noticed the contradiction in Shi Huchuan's dialect. The previous one was about the "Scale Armor True Legend", but why did he say the test later?

Shi Huchuan quickly gave an answer. He finally got to the point. The soldier Changshi Huchuan pointed to the giant pot and said, "This giant pot contains whale oil from the blue whale in the ice sea. This kind of whale also has activities in the Blue Port waters, so it is caught. I tell you that there is only one way to practice the 'Scale Armor True Teaching', which is to soak the body in the boiling whale oil and condense the 'Scale Armor Body'."

When Zhou Jin heard the name of the Blue Whale in the Ice Sea, he felt awe. The Blue Whale in the Ice Sea is the overlord of the extremely cold sea area. This kind of whale has a characteristic, that is, its body is as steel as it is. If a whale boat wants to hunt this Blue Whale, it cannot use ordinary methods, because it uses giant crossbows to shoot, the crossbow arrows of the thickness of the arm and the length of six feet long will be bounced directly when they hit the blue whale, and such crossbow arrows can even shoot through the stone wall.

Moreover, this Ice Sea Blue Whale is extremely violent and once she is provoked, she will attack madly. The large ships on the sea will be directly hit and sunk. If you want to hunt such sea beasts, you can only send high-level warriors to use powerful power to kill the blue whale.

I didn’t expect that there was so much ice sea blue whale oil stored here in the Northern Region Blue Port.
