Chapter 360 Dojo
Although Duke does not feel that he needs the Huiyue Arcane Master to be stationed in Oak Tooth Mountain, Zambrotta and others still believe that it is necessary.
After Thersus and others broke through the scar on the earth and returned to the ground, the stars conducted an in-depth investigation. It was also determined that behind these many events, they were creating conditions for the Sinking Demon to attack Duke. It's just that Duke will travel through the world and make the Sinking Demon's plans fail.
“There are fallen demons that exploded in the scars on the earth, making the originally fragile tunnel extremely strong, so I and others are trapped in it and unable to get out.”
Theirsus’ real body returned to the battleship, and his clone has arrived in the Holy City of Aufa, taking charge of the overall situation again.
"Yes, I have also investigated a similar situation. The Sinking Demon is repeating its old tricks and wants us to fall into it." Timirasu Fengshen also noticed the changes in the scar on the earth and squinted his eyes coldly. said the voice.
In fact, the changes that occurred in the Scar of the Earth will become clear when the power of the Sinking Demon subsides.
So the stars looked back at the arcane trajectory and found out many causes and effects.
"However, it is very possible that someone interfered with the arcane trajectory, so that the Sinking Demon's actions could be realized." Selsas looked at the people in the Stars Conference Room, his beard was angry, and his eyes were cold, "There is one among us. traitor!"
"good!"
Sarilang nodded deeply: "Not only did it interfere once, but at least twice. Once when the Speaker led a team to explore the scar on the earth, it interfered with the trajectory of the Austrian law. Another time, when the Holy City of the Austrian law launched a surprise attack, there were also interferences. The arcane trajectory!"
Timirasu Fengshen also nodded, with a thoughtful look in his narrowed eyes: "No matter how sudden the Sinking Demon's attack is, the arcane trajectory can still be traced. Only interference by others can make me wait for Huiyue. I also lost my vigilance.”
Three Huiyue Arcane Masters spoke with certainty.
The stars suddenly became awe-struck and looked at each other, unable to guess who was betraying everyone.
Duke also looked around all the stars in a circle with unkind eyes. However, he could already trust most of the stars, but he was more suspicious of two of them.
Originally, in his little notebook, the names of three stars were recorded.
Shaddick Pioneer Eye, the guardian of the Shivering Realm, Perots Green Fox, the executive director of the Tower of Elements and director of the Arcane Formulating Committee, and Weasley, the commander of the Second Arcane Assistance Corps.
These three people had strongly opposed his joining the Star Conference.
And in the future, hostility towards Duke will occasionally be revealed - with Duke's perception ability, using the resonance of the energy of all things and the breathing method, he can grasp many hidden and profound emotions, and then analyze them by Xiaoyi to ensure that Foolproof.
But this time, Perots Green Fox was crossed off the list.
The reason is very simple. Perots Green Fox was one of the first eighteen stars and was the first to be trapped in the scars of the earth.
If he is a traitor, it will be difficult to interfere with the arcane trajectory a second time.
"In other words, Shadick Pioneer Eye or Weasley, choose one of the two!" Duke did not reveal his thoughts. After retracting his gaze, he thought silently, "Of course, it is also possible that both of them are traitors and secretly plot against each other. Wipe each other’s asses.”
Thinking of this, he felt the need to have a good chat with Selsus.
Earlier, Duke told Selsus to help him keep an eye on Shadik and Pioneer Eye to see if he could find the fox tail.
Now the fox is exposed once.
Sersus may not have been wary, he may have already made a guess in his mind.
At this time, the atmosphere in the Stars Conference Room was a little solemn. Seeing this, Selsus coughed lightly and said: "Okay, it will be a matter of time before the traitor is caught by us. Don't be too nervous. Let's talk about the next item. issue."
Wait for everyone to come to their senses.
Selsus continued: "This attack is aimed at Duke, so the Holy City of Offa is just covering the attack, and the Scar of the Earth is just delaying the attack. The real killing move is for six fallen demons to attack Duke. gram."
“Yes, we should pay attention to this matter!” Sarilang agreed.
Selsus nodded: "Fortunately, Duke escaped, but the attack will never end here. The reason is not difficult to understand. Duke's transformation of the spiritual arcana makes these slaves of corrupt spirituality no longer able to sit still." Stay, they are going to destroy Duke!"
In his view, both divine evil and fallen demons are the opposite of spiritual arcana.
This time the Sinking Demon used the ruins of the gods to trap more than a dozen stars. This is the best example. It is the confluence of the opposite aspects of spiritual arcana.
And Duke makes the spiritual arcana move forward rapidly, these negative reactions will naturally cause stress reactions and destroy Duke.
"In fact, counting this time, Duke has experienced four attacks from the Sinking Demon!" Selsus broke the news, "Two direct attacks and two nightmare attacks. This shows that Duke has already Become a thorn in the side of the Sinking Demon."
Therefore, Selsus immediately got to the point: "We must protect Duke without delay! I support the proposal of Zambrotta and Muse. Huiyue needs someone to sit on Oak Tooth Mountain anytime and anywhere to ensure Duke's safety. "
soon.
The Conference of Stars passed the "Duke Protection Act" with fifty-four votes in favor and one vote against.
The negative vote was cast by Duke himself. He really does not need the protection of Huiyue Arcane Mentor. The Mark of the Stars can be turned on at any time. No matter how many Sinking Demons attack and kill him, he will not be afraid.
Of course, he will not sway the good intentions of the stars.
"I will hide outside now, and I will come back when you catch the traitor." After the meeting, Duke said that there is no need for the Bright Moons to rush to Oak Teeth Mountain.
His true form is currently traveling through several worlds for inspection.
Then he chatted with Thersus alone for a while.
“Perots Green Fox’s suspicion has been lifted,” Selsus said. “On your list of suspicions, Shadick Pioneer Eye and Weasley remain.”
“It’s possible that both of them have problems.”
"I can't say for sure at the moment, but don't worry, I will investigate them one by one. This time the Sinking Demon is so generous, there are definitely not a few arcane traces that need to be erased. No one can be perfect, there will always be clues left."
“Then I’ll wait for your good news, sir.”
“It won’t take long, I’ll finish it within a month!” Thersus was furious. Being trapped in the scar on the earth this time really made him extremely angry.
Duke's first attack can also be used by someone who is not convinced by Duke and takes the opportunity to clear the ground against Duke. After all, the stars are also human beings, and there are also seven emotions and six desires that plot vendettas. As long as they are not colluding with the fallen demon, Selsus can still endure it before bad results occur.
But this time, it has been clearly shown that someone is colluding with the Sinking Demon.
This means that this one or even two stars, the twisted ring has been broken, and is about to fall into the abyss, and there is no way to reverse it.
Therlsus couldn't bear it any more.
“Then I’ll wait and see.” Duke nodded.
Then he asked about the story that happened in the scar on the earth, and also learned about what changes happened after the evil deity swallowed the spring of spirituality.
"That is a change in rules. If the rules of the Wild Continent have evolved the spiritual arcana and all things. Then in the scars of the earth, the rules have become loose and cannot evolve into all things, but they can expose the arcana. the essence of.”
Originally these were the secrets of the stars.
If ordinary arcane mages knew about it, it would be harmful to the practice of spiritual arcana, and would even shake the original intention of the twisted circle.
But Duke has been able to destroy the Sinking Demon. In Selsus' view, Duke's inner firmness is enough to resist the temptation of scars on the earth, so he is willing to reveal some secrets.
“The reason why I and others explore the Scar of the Earth is to find the essence of arcana from these loose rules. Of course, most of the time, they only get some material benefits... Everything in the Scar of the Earth is a treasure.”
The power of rules breaks down there, and matter cannot exist normally.
So special things will appear, such as some special spiritual materials, which may be extraordinary things that even alchemists cannot create.
It can be said that scars on the earth are special mineral deposits for the stars.
"Occasionally, we can find the essence of some spiritual arcana and expand our understanding of spiritual arcana... Chapters of the Stars and Moon Phases, every step is extremely difficult, let alone the Chapter of the Coronation Sun. Without the earth, Scars supplement cognition, and stars make it difficult to practice.”
"I see."
"After the divine evil merges with the earth, it is said that it is immortal and becomes an eternal body, but in fact it has become a part of the rules. Or how to put it, in my opinion, the divine evil is the melting of the rules that constitute the spiritual arcane law. , becoming the nourishment for one’s own eternal life.”
The spiritual springs that were eaten turned into scars on the earth, and no spiritual arcana developed in the entire area.
All living things will be cut off from the scars of the earth.
Once you stray into it, you will lose your spirituality and become part of the scar on the earth.
“You know about mine disease, right?” Selsus suddenly asked.
"nature."
"Patients with mineral disease, even if they are cured, will not live long. The reason is that their organs gradually lose their activity after being exposed to the energy of spiritual minerals for a long time, and become structures like dry firewood... The scars on the earth are the minerals of the wilderness continent. sick."
Thersus described it this way.
Duke immediately thought of a medical concept on Earth—fibrosis.
In his last life, he was watching short videos, and he often saw patients who drank pesticides, especially those who drank paraquat pesticides. Their lungs were fibrotic, irreversible, and they could only wait for death. The process of pulmonary fibrosis is the process of scarring.
The lungs are damaged and the body repairs them, leaving dense scars. These scars lead to changes in the normal tissue structure of the lungs.
Especially the alveoli that exchange oxygen, once fibrosis occurs, the ability to breathe is lost permanently.
The more severe the fibrosis, the weaker the breathing ability.
"Fibrosis..." Duke suddenly thought about it. The scars on the earth in the wilderness were the fibrosis caused by the erosion of the gods.
At present, there are very few areas of fibrosis, and the evil seems to have disappeared, and fibrosis will no longer continue.
But in the world he travels through, the Black Desert Continent has large areas of scarring, that is, large areas of fibrosis. And this fibrosis process seems to be continuing to develop. Sooner or later, the Black Wasteland will be completely fibrotic.
Finally turned into a dead silence.
“Dream of Stars… One star corresponds to a tree king… There must be some connection between the Wilderness Continent and these worlds…”
"And the goddess Nyx whom I activated the Will of the Stars and awakened may not be the former deity of the Wilderness Continent... Why can't it be the deity that destroyed the world like the Black Desolate Continent... Maybe there are more worlds that the Dream of the Stars once could go to. !”
So far, Duke has lit up more than 120,000 stars.
The tree kings corresponding to these stars are distributed in the Wild Continent, the Cold Continent, the Savage Continent, the Ancient Continent, and the Black Continent.
Approximately 3% of the total number of stars in the dream of stars.
Xiaoyi used the knowledge of statistics to perform calculations.
It can be roughly calculated that the number of tree kings in the Cold Desolate Continent, the Barbaric Continent, and the Great Desolate Continent is about one million, and the number of tree kings in the Black Desolate Continent is about 500,000. The Manghuang Continent has the least, with at most five thousand tree kings.
However, many of the King Trees in the Wilderness Continent have been cut down by humans. The original total number of King Trees in nature should be no less than 20,000.
"It can be seen that the Wilderness Continent should have the smallest area... but its development is the fastest... As for the Black Desolate Continent, it was originally about a million tree kings, but most of them were fibrous, resulting in only 500,000 trees left. ”
Duke is not sure how many worlds are connected by the stars' dreams, and how many worlds have been fiberized by the gods.
But he probably already knew what the goddess Nyx had inspired her to do.
There is no previous civilization, there are only gods born in other worlds in the dreams of stars. And as the world was destroyed by the gods, it fell asleep and decayed, and finally only some divine thoughts were left, integrated with the spiritual arcana.
Become what is called the will of the stars.
"The hometown of Goddess Nyx may once have been as prosperous as the Wilderness Continent, but the development of spiritual arcana has attracted the gnawing of the gods... In the end, the world became fibrous, and everything became a dream... Perhaps, this is His choice My reasons.”
Whether it is the Wild Continent, the Black Continent, or the world of the goddess Nyx, they all operate according to the rules of spiritual arcana.
So Goddess Nyx believes that this is not a sustainable development path, and sooner or later one will be in trouble with the gods because of spiritual arcana. Therefore, He did not give Duke any spiritual arcane revelation, and only allowed Duke to be himself.
Duke thought about something more: "In the end, these worlds may not be able to escape the bite of the gods, so the goddess Nyx hopes that I will take her far away!" Only the combination of earth technology and spiritual arcana, in Duke's Only by quickly entering the interstellar age under his leadership can he be taken far away.
ˆA true sense of “traveling far away”!
"It's just that if I really want to leave..." Duke frowned.
He was originally alone, and he could treat anyone with a normal heart, and he would just leave, regardless of whether the gods would destroy the world or not.
But things are different now, there are too many ties.
How can I bear to leave my wife, teachers, friends... but if I take them with me, I need to cut off too many ties.
"Forget it, why are you thinking so much? The ship will go straight to the bridge... Besides, if we really want to enter the interstellar era, we can't do mass immigration. We will build spaceships to transfer all the people in the wilderness... Take your time, and you will be far away from the gods. It’s still early to eat the world.”
There are not many scars on the earth in the Wilderness Continent, and there are no signs of activity of the gods for a long time. There is still a lot of time left for Duke to develop safely.
“Duke?”
“Duke?”
The cry of Selsus brought Duke back to reality from his thoughts: "What's the matter, Sir?"
“What are you thinking about, so absorbed in your thoughts?”
"Nothing... I thought about what the goddess Nyx told me when I activated the will of the stars. She said that the past of this world has withered and there is no hope for the future... Could it be that the evil **** is the culprit of destroying the world?"
“Abominations?” Celsus shook his head, “I don’t think this kind of thing can destroy the world. Besides, the abominations have been melted into scars on the earth, and it is impossible for them to cause trouble to the world again.”
paused.
He comforted: "Don't always put the inspiration of the goddess Nyx as pressure on your heart. The development of spiritual arcana is very good. Regardless of whether the previous civilization exists or not, we will unswervingly move towards glory! "
Like all the stars, Thersus was not intimidated by the inspiration of the goddess Nyx, and he was full of confidence in the future.
In fact, it is a very good situation now.
"Okay." Duke said no more, waved his hand, and the clone shattered into dots of fluorescent light.
Consciousness returns to the true body, waking up on the vajra oak in the cold desert continent, next to the joyfully singing cyclone **** Harpiah.
“Duke, are you awake?” Harpie glanced over.
Several angels of the wilderness are combing its feathers to make it comfortable and comfortable.
Although civilization has not developed, wilderness gods like Harpie lived a really good life and enjoyed themselves to the fullest every day.
"woke up."
“Are you still going to the tribe of the Golden Goat?” Harpie asked.
A few years ago, another group of Owads from the Golden Goat Tribe came to the Whirlwind Forest to learn the power of the wilderness from the God of Cyclones.
It was natural for Duke to get acquainted with the Golden Goat tribe.
I met the Druid of the Golden Goat tribe and a totem shaman, and learned a lot of skills in using the power of the wilderness, as well as a lot of totems.
all of these.
After he returned to the Wilderness Continent, he made announcements one after another and became part of the Qi Refining Ring.
"I'm not going, I'll just take a rest." Duke already knew something about the Cold Wasteland. The humans here are still in the tribal age. The Druid Way and the Shaman Way are the only two ways of practice. There are no three ways. In the sea, civilization has just sprouted.
So no matter how much you wander around, you will only find more primitive tribes and learn more totems.
He also conducted experiments and gave the natives here the Sanhai potion.
There is no native who can open the three seas - just like the results of his experiments with the Asiba tribe in the wild continent, no oak man can open the three seas.
Obviously the powers of several worlds have the same origin, but the results are different.
After taking a short rest and taking out a piece of food from the exclusive starry sky, Duke quickly bid farewell to Harpie, entered the dreamland of stars, and then traveled to another world - the prehistoric continent.
“I feel comfortable, the aura is really strong!”
Among these worlds.
Duke's favorite place to travel is this wild continent in the Rainfall era.
There are no higher intelligent animals here. The forest is probably still dominated by large reptiles such as dinosaurs. Moreover, Duke also encountered living gods here, that kind of weird maggot-like monsters crawling on the ground.
Looking for spiritual springs to feed on.
Duke could infer from its appearance that it was a juvenile divine creature, but he didn't get close, for fear of being hit accidentally.
after all.
The strange thing about the evil is that it can break the rules of spiritual arcana, and Duke's abilities are all given by spiritual arcana.
Even the Sand Eagle Pistol, which is more profound than the rules of spiritual arcana, still has to be embodied in the rules of spiritual arcana. For example, 0 and 1 are computer languages, but programming uses C language. The spiritual arcana is the C language of the Wilderness Continent.
The Sand Eagle Pistol is written using 0s and 1s, but no matter how profound it is, it still has to be run using a program designed in C language.
Divine Abomination directly breaks the C language, so many spiritual and arcane methods are ineffective against it.
Before Duke was promoted to the stars, he did not want to find trouble with the gods. Anyway, he would be promoted to the stars in more than ten years, so there was no need to take this risk.
“The aura of the Wilderness Continent is exceptionally rich. Even in ordinary places, the concentration of small spiritual springs on the Wilderness Continent is as high as that of the small spiritual springs on the Wilderness Continent. And the spiritual energy concentration of some small spirituality springs is even comparable to that of the large spiritual springs on the Wilderness Continent.”
As for the large spiritual springs in the prehistoric continent, the concentration of spiritual energy is directly comparable to that of the Whale Song Mirror Lake in the Holy City of Arcane.
Duke discovered many tree kings on the ancient continent, and the place he is currently traveling to is the tree king next to a large spiritual spring - the third-ring great elf tree king - Water-avoiding tree king, as its name suggests, because It can avoid water, so Duke gave it the name Water-avoiding Callia.
Crash.
There was heavy rain around the Elf Tree King's water-avoiding tree, but the crown of the water-avoiding tree and the lower part of the crown were still dry.
The invisible aura cover covers the water-proof tree trunks so that even rainwater cannot penetrate.
“It’s quite comfortable to practice here.” Duke sat cross-legged happily on the tree trunk of the water-sheltering tree. It often rained in the ancient continent, making the environment damp and depressing. However, here at the water-sheltering tree, it was always dry.
With each exhalation and inhalation, spiritual energy overflows the chest and abdomen, and is then absorbed by the spiritual sea.
Turn into boiling spiritual particles, surging towards the sixth ring, adding to Duke's practice.
"The Cold Desolate Continent, where all things are filled with energy; the Ancient Desolate Continent, where the spiritual energy is fragrant... the Savage Continent, where the spirit beasts are full of energy and blood... These three worlds are like one focusing on the development of the sea of qi, one focusing on the development of the sea of blood, and the other focusing on the development of the spirit. ocean."
certainly.
Among these three worlds, there are natives in the Cold Continent and the Wild Continent, but they cannot open up the Three Seas; in the Wild Continent, there are no natives at all.
"The power of the three seas exists in every world, but the emphasis is different. But the three seas seem to be unique to the Manghuang Continent?" Duke thought casually, "In this way, the power of the three seas in the Manghuang Continent is balanced. , but not outstanding.”
The concentration of spiritual energy in the Wilderness Continent is not as good as that in the Wilderness Continent; the energy and blood power of spiritual beasts is not as strong as that in the Wilderness Continent; and the energy of all things is not as good as the Cold Wasteland Continent.
As for the Black Desolate Continent.
It seems that the power of the Three Seas is also balanced, but currently most of it has been eroded by divine evil, and evil has become the strongest presence.
Xiaoyi is working hard to practice while hanging up.
Duke was bored, so he took out a notebook and a pen from the exclusive starry sky, and started writing and drawing randomly on them.
Inspiration.
"A continent is a continent, a world is a world, and a planet is a planet... let's call the wild continent the Earth Star." Duke wanted to use "Earth Star" to commemorate the earth where he lives. "The cold wilderness continent is called the Air Star; the wild continent is called the Air Star." Then it’s called the Blood Star; in the prehistoric continent, it’s called the Spirit Star.”
He scrawled the name "Death Star" on the Black Waste Continent in his notebook.
is scribbling.
Xiaoyi suddenly reminded: "Master, Aaron is here."
"Well, my little Aaron, are you waiting for my contract?" Duke stood up and flew towards the small green dot on the Dou Qi holographic screen.
After a while, the little green dot arrived.
In the grass in front of Duke, a beautiful big butterfly slowly flapped its wings and looked at Duke with some confusion.
Like Oak Spirit and Ogham, this big butterfly is a big spirit.
However, no one taught it. Although it is wise, it is as ignorant as the beast, and it does not even know what it is. It was probably raised by a group of small dinosaurs that lived here before, so Duke gave it the name "Along".
Aaron is wary of Duke, so Duke hasn't contracted him yet.
He has already contracted with a lot of great elves, so he is very patient with Aaron and is prepared to cultivate feelings first before making a contract.
The water-avoiding tree is his training ground, and he has enough time to spend it.
“Spiritual crystal, do you want to eat it or not?” Duke said, having already taken out a piece of spiritual crystal in his hand, and threw it directly to Aaron.
Aaron has become accustomed to Duke's feeding. When he **** his wings, the spiritual crystal floats in front of him. Then he flies away with the spiritual crystal and starts to nibble on it.
While eating, he raised his head from time to time to look at Duke.
Duke smiled gently.
He melted Aaron's inner defenses little by little.
But at this moment, Duke suddenly raised his head and looked at the rain curtain in the distance. A juvenile divine evil had appeared on the Dou Qi holographic screen.
It is dragging its fat body and crawling towards here.
"I like this water-proof tree!" Duke jumped up and appeared next to Aaron. His arcane hand directly grabbed Aaron's wings, "So, we can't play anymore, Aaron, hurry up and make a contract. Get rid of the water-repellent alpine trees!"
Aaron struggled.
But the arcane hand was already familiar with it. Controlling its mouthparts and casting dark attribute mind control arcane spells, Aaron bit Duke's finger in a daze.
A drop of blood spreads instantly.
The Elf Contract was concluded successfully.
“Good fellow, go ahead and take away the water-avoiding algae!” Duke patted Aaron’s wings, and Aaron began to swallow the water-avoiding algae again.
The huge Elf Tree King quickly condensed into a seed and fell into Aaron's mouth.
Hurrah!
The aura cover of the water-proof alpinia tree was lost, and heavy rain poured down. The evil creature not far away was already exuding a strong evil aura and slowly approached despite the heavy rain.
Duke glanced at it, but instead of showing off, he took Aaron directly and flew away into the distance.
He wants to find a new large-scale spiritual spring, put down the water-proof cypress trees, and create a new training ground—you can still enjoy the training environment of the Holy City of Arcane without living in the Holy City of Arcane.
