Throne of Vientiane Civilization
Chapter 899 Mental Power
Zhou Xu originally thought that he would be able to calm down soon after the excitement, after all, his personality has always been like this.
But he soon found that he could not calm down at all at this moment, and he was so excited.
He didn't want to do morning exercises anymore, and he didn't want to do anything. He just opened his attribute panel and looked at the four words "supernormal life". He was so happy.
Fortunately, after nearly 20 minutes of happiness, he ate breakfast for the time being, and then walked briskly and happily to work in the Qinzheng Hall.
Because he woke up half an hour earlier today, and because he didn't go for morning exercises, he became the first one to arrive.
After a period of time, Zhou Xu's emotions finally calmed down a little. He slowly entered the working state and soon found that he was in an excellent state.
Looking at the documents in front of him, his mind was even clearer, and his processing efficiency was greatly improved.
He knew that this was the effect of his further improvement in mental attributes.
Long before, when his mental star level was upgraded to four stars and five stars, there was a similar effect, but the improvement was not as obvious as it is now.
The higher the spiritual star level, the clearer the mind is when they need to think, so they are often very efficient in processing these documents.
After becoming an extraordinary life, the first star that symbolizes his spiritual star level was lit up in bronze.
This undoubtedly verified Zhou Xu's previous guess, that is, studying and practicing the mantra, as long as a certain state is reached, it can also break through.
However, due to different ways of practice, the name of the state after the breakthrough is also different.
At this stage, warriors like Jie Liancheng are called the Hundred Refining Realm. According to Zhou Xu's understanding, it should mean that they have been tempered a hundred times, which is also in line with the strength of that state.
And a magician like him shows the extraordinary state.
For Zhou Xu, the word "extraordinary" is undoubtedly easier to understand, especially under the premise that their human race is still "mortal", it can be simply understood as transcending the level of mortals.
In the midsummer season, due to the hot weather, everyone's work efficiency has decreased, but the workload has not decreased at all.
Recently, every day is almost busy until eleven o'clock lunch break, and it may not be finished.
But today, because of Zhou Xu's extraordinary performance after his realm breakthrough, he finished the morning's work half an hour ahead of schedule, which made Huo Qubing and Li Bowen look at him in surprise.
"Finished!"
While speaking, Zhou Xu stretched his body vigorously.
After sitting for a whole morning, his body, which had been stiff, groaned in pain at this moment.
Just when he was about to stretch his muscles, a personal soldier ran in quickly.
"Your Majesty, Corporal John is back, and he brought the Wood Elf Chief Locke with him."
John had sent a pigeon to tell the Wood Elf Chief Locke to come to Xianyang City when he was in Green Forest City, so he knew about it a long time ago and approved it.
The temperature has begun to rise gradually, entering the hottest time of the day.
Zhou Xu really didn't want to toss about business at this time, it was too tiring.
But Locke obviously couldn't wait any longer, and considering the other party's status, Zhou Xu couldn't leave him alone...
"Take them to the side hall, and ask someone to get some iced bayberry soup."
After giving the simple instructions, Zhou Xu went to the side hall and sat down first.
Locke and his men came very quickly, and their steps were quite hurried.
"Locke greets the emperor!"
"Patriarch, there is no need to be polite. I think you are tired after such a long journey. Sit down and rest first."
From the perspective of status, Locke is not his subordinate or citizen, but an ally of their Great Zhou. At this time, he still has to be polite.
While Zhou Xu was talking, the maid beside him had already brought the freshly made iced bayberry soup.
"This iced bayberry soup is a new drink we just developed this summer. Patriarch, you might as well try it."
Locke's mind was full of the giant eagle, and he wanted to refuse, but the cold breath emanating from the iced bayberry soup made him swallow the words that were already on the tip of his tongue, and at the same time he became curious about it.
"Your Majesty, where did you get the ice in such a hot season?"
Faced with Locke's question, Zhou Xu smiled and gave an answer.
"Just store the ice in winter and use it in summer."
"..."
However, Zhou Xu's explanation sounded worse to Locke than not explaining it at all. He was even more confused after listening to it.
And Zhou Xu had no interest in popularizing science to Locke, so he casually passed on the topic.
"Patriarch, try it first."
In response, Locke was not polite and took a big sip.
At that moment, Locke felt comfortable all over, and for a moment, he was so amazed by the iced bayberry soup that he couldn't speak.
This bayberry was discovered in Liang State. As early as last year, Zhou Xu ordered people to transplant it to the New South District. At the same time, Black Moon City and Plain Farm also sent a lot.
Now the cold, sour and sweet bayberry soup has become an excellent way to relieve the heat here. At the same time, many restaurants have also launched it. The price is not low, and there is no cheap and large bowl of herbal tea.
Among them, the bayberry itself is not expensive, but the ice is expensive.
In this era, not everyone can afford ice, and there are not so many of them at this stage, which leads to the high price.
But the sales volume was not bad at all, and Zhou Xu couldn't help but sigh that the consumption level of their people in the Great Zhou Dynasty had really improved.
At this moment, Locke felt that the heat and fatigue along the way were instantly swept away, and his whole body felt comfortable.
It wasn't until he drank all the iced bayberry soup that he came back to his senses. Looking at Zhou Xu who was smiling and saying nothing, his face turned slightly red.
"Ahem. I lost my composure."
"It doesn't matter. Patriarch, you can do whatever you want. I don't have that many rules here."
While speaking, Zhou Xu also quickly got to the point.
"I know the purpose of the clan leader's visit, but the weather is hot right now, so we might as well rest in this hall for a while and have a chat. It won't be too late to go when it gets cooler."
Zhou Xu had already mentioned this. Although Locke was anxious, he couldn't refuse.
"Then it will be as Your Majesty wishes."
"Corporal John must have told you about my situation. I wonder if the patriarch has any idea?"
When he mentioned this, Locke suddenly became excited as if he remembered something.
"I already know this."
While talking, Locke explained to Zhou Xu again.
Locke's words immediately gave Zhou Xu a feeling of enlightenment.
[I see, mental power...]
[Spiritual power is a reflection of the strength of the soul. If mental power is compared to a person with bare hands, then the power of mantra is equivalent to the weapon in that person's hand. 】
[Bare-handed combat effectiveness is limited, but it is different with weapons. 】
[The mantra is equivalent to the moves performed after taking the weapon. Different mantras correspond to different moves. 】
Zhou Xu's idea can be said to be simple and clear, and he quickly made the relationship clear.
During this process, looking at Zhou Xu who was expressionless and deep in thought, Locke mistakenly thought that he was having a headache about breaking through the realm, so he smiled and expressed relief.
"This breakthrough cannot be achieved in just a few years. Your Majesty must relax and let nature take its course..."
Unexpectedly, before Locke finished speaking, Zhou Xu, who was sitting on top, raised his head with a confused expression, as if he didn't understand what the other party was saying.
After reacting, he immediately explained.
"Oh, don't worry, Patriarch, I have successfully broken through and reached the extraordinary realm. I was thinking about other things just now."
"I understand, I understand. I thought so too back then..."
Locke obviously didn't listen carefully to what Zhou Xu said. He followed the words and said comforting words to himself. He was halfway through the words before his mind slowly turned around.
"ah?"
