As Fu Que confirmed, the ancient jade pendant in his hand turned into gray powder and disappeared. Fu Que felt a slight throbbing pain in his mind, and an invisible aura of national destiny rose up, transforming into a lifelike phantom of a sickle.
Before Fu Que could react, the phantom crashed into his brow. Fu Que sank into his sea of consciousness, pressed his sword, and stood around the swordsman. Suddenly, a swirling blue weasel phantom appeared.
This ethereal image is much thinner than the original sketch or the painting itself, as if it were drawn with a paintbrush without any paint.
[You have gained the power of the wind element, currently at 15/100. You can control ordinary air currents and air.]
[You can choose to consume national fortune aura or divine items possessing corresponding elemental power to enhance your ability to control air currents and atmosphere. You can also choose to consume sinful cloud ink to enhance your power level and control more and stronger air currents.]
[You have chosen to absorb temporary wind elemental power, increasing your wind elemental power to 26/100.]
I took a deep breath and calmed myself down.
Fu Que tried to raise his right hand. An invisible force swirled between his palm and fingers, emitting a sharp screech. Fu Que hovered his right hand above a teacup on the table, pursed his lips, and exerted force.
The airflow swirled around the teacup, and soon, fine cracks appeared inside, spreading like a spider web. In just three breaths, it shattered into countless fragments.
But that wasn't the end of it. The shattered fragments were still firmly bound by Fu Que, spinning and rubbing rapidly within the extremely small aura until they turned into a fine dust.
"Not bad. My control over airflow has improved to at least one level. I couldn't have achieved this level if I were only relying on temporary wind elemental power."
Fu Que scattered the dust in his hands, clapped his hands, and looked at another smaller, ancient jade pendant. This was a traditional martial art used in conjunction with the Weilan Summoning Wind Technique. Although it was called a martial art, it was more of a movement technique.
You have received a sketch to copy. Do you want to consume it?
"Devour".
You have consumed a copied sketch; your current copied sketch is 2/3 complete.
Still a prisoner in gray uniform, still an immersive experience, in just a few dozen seconds, Fu Que gained the experience and understanding that others had painstakingly cultivated for more than ten or even decades.
Although this was obtained through a trick, as long as Fu Que practices a little and engages in several real battles, he might be able to obtain the remnant soul that the prisoner had poured his heart and soul into.
"Next, all I need to do is obtain another copy of the sketch and accumulate enough Sinful Cloud Ink to upgrade this painting."
As Fu Que thought this, he looked at the other items in the box. Apart from the magical items that could be devoured by the Strange Painter in exchange for four or five points of wind element power, there were only three bottles containing a total of fifteen Breath Spirit Pills.
The martial arts pills sold in Gaoyang County are generally designed to increase qi and blood, while in Yuntai Prefecture, they are replaced by the rarer Xiling Pill, which can increase the speed of true qi refining.
A tiger cub like Fu Que, who hasn't advanced to the Qi Refining Martial Artist level, isn't qualified to receive the Breathing Spirit Pill.
However, the Qi-refining pill given to him here was not to accelerate Fu Que's Qi cultivation, but to increase the probability of successfully cultivating the Minor Ripples Summoning Wind Technique.
I just didn't expect Fu Que to be so unconventional and not need this thing at all.
Fu Que casually placed the pills into a cabinet in the room and continued reading his notes on the operation of the Tiger Cavalry of Yuntai Prefecture.
During this process, Fu Que gained a general understanding of the Tiger Cavalry system of Yuntai Prefecture.
Each Tiger Rider, including newly joined recruits, has their own score, and each combat company also has the same level of score. Completing missions earns points, which can be exchanged for various weaponry resources.
Individual and company scores are not the same. What's special is that the company commander of a combat company can use the company's total score to calculate a higher percentage of individual scores for the Tiger Cavalry under his command.
Simply put, if a Tiger Rider completes a combat mission and earns 100 points, then after consuming the total points, he can obtain a personal score of at least 110 and at most 120.
If a combat company's total score is at the bottom three times in the quarterly settlement, then the Tiger Cavalry belonging to that combat company will also have their total score cap deducted.
Within the same combat battalion, the differences between each combat company can theoretically be significant. This is not only a competition of individual soldier quality among the Tiger Cavalry, but also a contest between commanders.
However, in general, it is still healthy competition, because the allocated resources are unlimited for them, and they only need to have enough task points to exchange for them.
Tiger's Den is only responsible for providing basic combat supplies; all other additional resources must be earned by each combat company through completing missions and earning points.
This model is very popular in sects. After absorbing its essence, various military, police, and secret service units in Da Zhao have also incorporated it into their own organizational culture.
After two days of rest, Fu Que only went on a few combat missions in the following period, and they were mostly trivial tasks. The points he earned were only enough to buy a bottle of Qi Ling Pill.
As for the sinful Yunmo, he basically had none, because he had never hunted down anyone burdened with sin.
He spent the rest of his time training, and mastering the power of the wind element was of paramount importance. In addition, he also needed to master dozens of different courses.
A large portion of these were skilled drivers and emergency repair technicians of airships and heavy motorcycles produced in Yuntai Prefecture.
In addition, there was specialized training on the pursuit and precautions for certain special individuals and demons. Fu Que also learned many things that the government kept secret, including policies, economics, and trading partners.
For example... who exactly is behind the demonic sects and notorious bandits who have been entrenched in the territory for so long, yet remain impossible to eradicate or kill?
Thus, Fu Que spent the first two months of his time with the Yuntai Prefecture Tiger Cavalry, mostly studying and training, with virtually no free time.
Day after day, week after week.
Fu Que's life became extremely regular, even somewhat numb.
Time flies like an arrow, disappearing quietly. In the blink of an eye, another three days and nights have passed.
In the training field.
Fu Que stood quietly, a full five meters away from the training stake made of special materials.
These training stakes, made of a special material, are resilient. As long as the injuries they sustain do not exceed their maximum capacity in a short period of time, they can recover quickly, making them excellent equipment for martial arts training.
Four moon-shaped blades swirled around the training stake, constantly slashing and chopping at it.
