Chapter 289 Can’t escape? It's okay, my body will hide on its own.
The impact of Hanabi's last commotion in the ancient city of Immortal Realm gradually spread in the academic world.
The civilization of immortals is an unavoidable stage of human civilization.
Obviously it is the closest era to human beings, but modern humans are so unfamiliar with that era.
This kind of strangeness is not only for the immortals, but also for the civilization of that era.
With the great archaeological discovery of the ancient country of Ruian, archaeologists have gained a preliminary understanding of the origin of human beings, but they still have questions about why human beings separated into two parallel sets of "beast masters" and "immortals" after the Ruian era. The reason for the system has always been a mystery.
The Ancient City of Immortal Realm, as the oldest city in the Immortal Era, has existed since the beginning of the Immortal Era.
Now, due to Hua Huo's hard work, mankind's exploration of the ancient city of Immortal City has advanced to the central area of the ancient city of Immortal City - which is also the oldest neighborhood of the ancient city of Immortal City.
However, although Hanabi created a passage, there was only one passage.
Those weird beings who have not yet explored the area have noticed the existence of this passage. For them, this is a blank, unoccupied territory.
Therefore, even if the access to the central city has been opened, there are still a lot of risks if you want to explore further.
Today, the main task of the pioneering army in the ancient city of Immortal Realm is to maintain the existence of this passage, and then use the passage as a starting point to radiate outwards.
Depending on the distance from the central block, there is a clear gradient of strength and weakness in this pathway. This allows the Pioneer Army to more accurately dispatch maintenance teams and exploration teams based on the strength of the enemies it faces.
The goal of Zhou Lu's escort mission this time is to escort this group of archaeologists to this passage and protect their safety throughout the process.
Relying on his own reputation, Zhou Lu's application was quickly approved.
There are a total of three experts on this trip, all of whom are well-known archaeological experts in the industry.
"I always feel that my existence is superfluous." Zhou Lu looked at the three people in front of him and complained self-deprecatingly.
The leader Lin Fei said with a smile: "You can't say that. Among us, you are the strongest one."
Lin Fei, archaeologist, A fourth-level beast master.
Yes.
Of the three experts in front of me, two are fourth-level beast masters, and one, although he has not reached the fourth level, has actually contracted a quasi-god-level spiritual pet through the legacy of his ancestors.
Such a strength configuration is top-notch even in the pioneering army, and there is no need for any escorts at all.
No wonder some people say that archaeologists are the group where the strong prevail.
They are often the first explorers of ancient ruins, which is why they need enough strength to protect their own safety.
Weak archaeologists have long since died in the process of exploration, and those who can survive are top experts.
Lin Fei looked at the young man in front of him.
The legend about him has gradually spread around the world.
The officials intentionally promoted him to downplay people's fear of the immortal's resurrection.
There are many legends related to Zhou Lu, some of which are even impossible rumors at first sight.
For example, nonsense stories such as his grass eating immortals make professional people laugh.
But this cannot stop many people from believing it, because otherwise, it would be difficult for you to explain the phenomenon of Zhou Lu's spiritual pet completing the fourth-level ascension in just one year.
Lin Fei still respected Zhou Lu very much and chatted with Zhou Lu on various topics along the way.
An excellent archaeologist must also be an excellent expert on spiritual animals.
Because Huahuo had lost her disguise after the Suizhou incident, Lin Fei could easily identify Huahuo's race based on its flowers.
“I didn’t expect you to be able to cultivate the Nine-Life Immortal Grass to such strength.” Lin Fei couldn’t help but sigh, “In the process of archeology, most of the Nine-Life Immortal Grass I dug out The highest level of Dan is only the third level.”
Having said this, Lin Fei could also understand why Zhou Lu could appear in various events related to immortals.
Nine-Life Immortal Grass is the evolution material of immortals.
In addition to the statements of those who witnessed this incident, the archaeological discoveries of archaeologists are also one of the important basis.
Since it is a necessary evolutionary material, the immortals will naturally come close to it involuntarily after discovering that Hanabi is the Nine-Life Immortal Grass.
Compared with Lin Fei's curiosity about Hua Huo, Zhou Lu was more curious about Lin Fei's goal of this trip.
"Are you going to the ancient city of Immortal World this time to find the inheritance of immortals?"
"We have no interest in the inheritance of immortals." Lin Fei smiled and rejected Zhou Lu's question, "In the circle, there are There are many experts who like to explore this area, but they seem to have been taken away for investigation recently. "
"It's because of modern immortals, right?" Zhou Lu said.
“They are not unjust.” Lin Fei said with a smile, “Unlike our team who rely on official funding to obtain research funds, archaeologists who investigate historical sites related to the evolution of immortals can often obtain There are a lot of additional grants. The officials may have found some clues from these grants and then locked them in.”
It seems possible.
Their conversation was quickly interrupted by the opening of the secret realm door.
As the teleported brilliance dissipated, Zhou Lu came to the ancient city of Immortal World again.
But compared to the last time, this time they landed directly at the entrance of the passage.
This passage, called the Avenue of Flowers by the pioneering army, has completely changed its appearance at this time.
In order to maintain the existence of the passage, the Pioneer Army invested a lot of manpower and built teleportation towers along the way, and each teleportation tower was protected by dedicated personnel.
Starting from these transfer nodes, the exploration of the entire ancient city of Immortal World formed a tree-like structure. The pioneering army dispatched corresponding troops according to the approximate strength of different nodes, and then began to explore outwards from the transfer nodes.
The average strength of Lin Fei and his party is at the level of a quasi-god, so naturally they are not just trying to stay on the periphery.
While inspecting along Flower Avenue, they also headed towards the core neighborhood.
"I heard that there will be strong pioneers from the pioneering army there to open up a period of time." Lin Fei said to Zhou Lu.
There are fifth-level beastmasters in the Pioneer Army. After Zhou Lu left, they led the mythical beasts to drive the Flower Avenue forward for a certain distance.
However, compared to Hanabi's fighting style, the mythical beast is actually a little constrained in its performance while ensuring that the protected building is not destroyed.
In contrast, Hanabi's vines can clean the interior of the building without damaging the building itself, which Lin Fei was full of praise for.
"Many true god-level grass-based spiritual pets cannot control vines so accurately." He had already observed the buildings being cleaned by fireworks on the road.
While accurately removing dangerous objects, all historical relics and cultural relics were preserved.
These cultural relics may not have much value in terms of money, but they are of great significance in the exploration of the evolution of human civilization.
When Hua Huo heard Lin Fei's compliment, she raised her head very proudly.
"Hey, of course, the fireworks are very powerful." Xiao Caocao was very proud.
Lin Fei laughed loudly when he heard Hua Huo's words: "Then I'll leave it to you."
As he spoke, the flower avenue had come to the end.
Lin Fei pointed to the tall building in the distance and stated the goal of this trip: "That building is the core of the ancient city of Immortal World and the source of maintaining the ancient city of Immortal World for thousands of years. Our goal this time is Get there." "This is the only distance left, can't even the beast push it through?" Zhou Lu asked doubtfully, looking at the tall building nearby.
“It’s not that it can’t be pushed over, it’s that there is no way to push over without damaging the surrounding buildings.” Lin Fei said, “Many of the buildings here have a history of tens of thousands of years. Even Every brick is a treasure of human civilization.”
“I think the first step is to eliminate danger at this time. First priority, right? Isn’t this what the Pioneer Army has been doing in the ancient city of Immortal Realm?”
“So this is the contradiction,” Lin Fei said with a bitter smile, “I want to take possession of both. We can only waste time and push forward bit by bit.”
In fact, Lin Fei had no expectations of achieving his goal.
But after learning that the beast master who came to protect the group was Zhou Lu, the thoughts that had been extinguished began to rise again.
If it was Hanabi, maybe it could be done.
The reason why he placed the teleportation node at the entrance of Flower Avenue was to see the traces left by the Fireworks battle along the way and see if it was the same as the conclusion brought back by his colleagues.
The facts did not disappoint him, Hanabi was such an excellent spiritual pet.
In a sense, it can be regarded as an archaeologist’s dream pet.
Protecting the ruins from damage while eliminating all dangers is such a powerful strength.
As for Zhou Lu, he actually didn’t have much idea of the so-called archaeological value that Lin Fei mentioned.
What really excited him was that the content of immortal souls in this core city seemed to be very high.
This is actually a bit different from the ancient city of Immortal Realm recorded in the documents left over from that time.
According to documentary records, the center of the ancient city of Immortal Realm is the place where powerful men gather to resolve conflicts among various sects. Therefore, no immortal would dare to stay here on weekdays.
But now, a large number of immortal souls have gathered here.
Does this mean that there is some kind of power here that can help the immortals stabilize their remaining souls.
As soon as they spoke, the remaining souls of the immortals were eager to attack them.
For the remnant souls, the living human body is very attractive and is an excellent tool for their resurrection.
Unfortunately, while they regard future people as objects to seize, Hanabi also regards them as a ladder of progress.
Zhou Lu has already told Hanabi his thoughts.
Because the immortals of the Immortal Kingdom have set their sights on the sealed land of Mengyu Huaxian, Zhou Lu felt that adventurous evolution was a necessary attempt.
The consequences of evolutionary failure are completely bearable for Zhou Lu.
The lost materials can be replenished through the seeking wood.
The negative effects suffered by Hanabi can be easily eliminated by the curse frog's racial skills.
It is precisely because of this that the Curse Frog is known as one of the fastest spiritual pets.
As long as it evolves to the fourth level and opens up a new form of racial skills, Curse Frog can start to continuously try the fifth level evolution and gamble on the probability of success if there are sufficient materials.
Wu Xiaoqing is like this.
As long as she is willing, she can actually prepare for the evolution of the Curse Frog now.
This is one of the few spiritual beasts in the world that can be exempted from the penalty of failure to evolve.
And Hanabi, who has absorbed the cursed frog racial skills, now has similar characteristics.
This is the real basis for Zhou Lu’s plan.
Hanabi has no problem with this.
If becoming a true god can help its master, even if it is really dangerous, it will not hesitate.
With Hanabi thinking like this, she began to ruthlessly clean up all the remaining immortal souls that emerged along the way.
Some of them coveted the fresh flesh and wanted to seize it, while others were lured out by sensing the existence of the Nine-Life Immortal Grass.
But without exception, they all could not survive half a minute in Hanabi's hands.
Under Hanabi's powerful combat power, the group advanced very quickly, advancing a long distance in just three hours.
Seeing such efficiency, Lin Fei showed an expression of disbelief.
The progress of Hanabi's advancement has exceeded the sum of the advancement of all fifth-level beast masters in the past period.
The tall building is already in sight.
"Who is disturbing my Qingxiu?"
At this moment, a voice came from the air.
There was a hint of sullenness and arrogance in his voice.
Hanabi looked up, but only had time to see an afterimage.
In an instant, a long sword penetrated Hanabi's body.
"Hmph! It seems like they are just small scraps..."
The visitor was just about to mock him, but found that the Nine-Life Immortal Grass in front of him was withering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
What's going on?
Just when he was confused, a vine wrapped around his neck.
"Hey, I found you." Hanabi's cheerful voice came from behind him.
When?
"Impossible! No one can escape my flying sword!" The arrogant immortal showed a horrified expression.
He was the most powerful swordsman of that era, and many mythical beasts died under his sword.
If that terrifying guy hadn't blocked the sky, he wouldn't have even lost his life.
But now, the sword was easily dodged by the grass.
"Ah...this sword is indeed terrifying..." Hanabi said, feeling a little frightened.
Actually, Hanabi didn't react to the sword at all, at least not in consciousness.
But in addition to its own consciousness, it also has plug-in combat experience.
Qiudao Mu obviously had a deep memory of this swordsman who carried out sneak attacks, so the first phantom of the immortal that was condensed was him.
"However, after receiving more than 60,000 swords, a fool can avoid it by relying on instinct and body memory." Hanabi said with a smile.
Then without giving the other party any chance, he directly crushed the other party's soul with the vines.
"Ah...I forgot to ask your name." After doing all this, Hanabi realized what she was doing.
The one I just killed seemed to be an incredible immortal in front of me.
If you kill him without asking any questions, won’t you lose one of your achievements that you can brag about?
