Chapter 389 Neptune’s Golden Soul Fragment
Because he was well prepared, Su Lun successfully stole the house and obtained the item carrying the divine power of [Sea King Drake].
But he also knew that this was also the most dangerous time.
The moment he held the cold crown, the surrounding seawater suddenly solidified into a transparent humanoid monster. Then [Sea King] can move at will in the sea water, which is a very tricky ability.
Su Lun had identified it before, so without any hesitation, he immediately used [Teleport] in the sea water.
In a flash of light and shadow, he instantly left his previous position, and the sense of death crisis that made his scalp numb flashed through him, as if he had passed by the God of Death.
Without looking, he knew that he had just dodged an almost fatal attack.
Su Lun's fighting instinct has been brought to the extreme. He didn't dare to hesitate at all. He was well prepared and pinched the surgeon's seal: "Hormones are running rampant·Five solutions!"
A large amount of hormones poured into the limbs, the veins on the forehead were exposed, the muscles instantly became knotted and swollen, and a violent force like a volcanic eruption surged up into the limbs in the body, and all aspects of the body's functions increased several times.
The Warlock Seal changed again, and the dark golden skin was already overflowing with dense rune luster, and [Rune King Kong] and [Elemental Barrier] were activated at the same time.
Almost at the same time that his technique was condensing, a powerful force of water pressure squeezed over him instantly.
"Crack!"
Su Lun's body was squeezed into pieces and exploded into pieces of puppet fragments.
This is already using [Stand-in Puppet].
Su Lun had already appeared a few meters away.
After using both quick ways to save his life, he looked hard and could no longer avoid it.
The fifth-level hormonal state caused flame-like waves of dark spirit power to overflow from the body, cutting off a large space in the sea. Su Lun also felt the terrifying pressure, and dark spiritual power surged out of his body crazily. Fortunately, the elemental barrier condensed by his law of death offset most of the necromantic energy damage, otherwise he would have died suddenly on the spot.
Even so, he felt as if a mountain was getting heavier and heavier on his chest.
As long as he dares to breathe a sigh of relief, it will immediately explode into a ball of blood mist.
He knew very well that in this environment surrounded by sea water in all directions, there was no way to block the [Sea King]'s attack for him. Only if your body is strong enough to hold on for a while can you have a chance to survive.
Probably because he felt that pressure alone could not kill anyone, at this moment, the surrounding seawater suddenly seemed to be boiling, forming countless sharp water blades.
The water blade swept through like a storm, cutting through the barrier of the Law of Death's condensed elements, and the blade cut into Su Lun's dark golden skin like a sharp blade.
"铿", "铿", "铿".
The harsh sound was like a water jet cutting steel plates.
Su Lun felt a sharp pain all over his body, as if it was being burned.
If he hadn't recently enhanced the runes engraved on his body, he would be like meat thrown into a meat grinder, and it would turn into a ball of meat in no time. Even so, he didn't hold on for long. His skin was cut by the water jet and the blood exploded instantly, and his vision was filled with blood. Fortunately, the muscles and bones have runes, so they can still hold on.
However, Su Lun's eyes were filled with joy at this moment.
He knew he had succeeded!
Because at this time, Pandora finally arrived!
The Pandora in front of her broke into the field of vision in a very domineering form. Her body looked like a blood-cloth made of blood-colored moonlight. She was seven or eight meters tall, surrounded by hundreds of ghosts, and her blood-colored eyes were emotionless and terrifying. Awesome.
As soon as she entered the scene, her blood-colored horses danced wildly, and the surrounding sea water was evaporated. She shouted softly, "Tsukiyomi·Tsukiyo Shinto!"
Su Lun felt the pressure around his body suddenly lighten up. He didn't dare to hesitate at all, and quickly handed the crown in his hand to Pan Duola beside him.
If this hot thing is put in his hand, [Sea King] will keep causing trouble for him.
Sure enough, as soon as the thing was released, all the pressure around it suddenly disappeared.
Blood overflowed from the corner of Su Lun's mouth, and he was breathing heavily. He suddenly felt relieved and said to himself: "Puppet Master, the physical body does wonders! Teacher Seraya has great foresight!"
No matter how strong the puppet is, it will be weak if the physical body cannot bear it.
He was also fortunate to have a good teacher who showed him a clear path.
Only by practicing both physically and professionally can you have the opportunity to see the scenery above the peak of an alchemist!
After Pandora got the crown, [Sea King] had no intention of causing trouble to Su Lun anymore.
Because,
Su Lun, a "mortal", didn't know the use of that thing, but Pandora knew!
She has a special method of stealing the power of faith. This is the ability that Seria and Sir Isaac originally gave her when they refined the alchemy cyborg!
The purpose is to create a god who can grow quickly.
The moment Pandora got the crown, an extremely dazzling white light suddenly burst out from her hand.
Su Lun watched as golden threads were released from the crown, and then were sucked into Pandora's body.
"She can directly draw the power of faith."
Su Lun understood, and his eyes were bright.
Now this situation has obviously reached a turning point in the battle.
Originally this was the lair of [Sea King], and it was surrounded by the sea. It had a steady supply of elemental power, making it almost invincible.
But when the power of faith is extracted, the situation is reversed.
The source of power of [Sea King] has been cut off, and the balance of victory has been tilted towards Pandora's side.
But Su Lun didn't dare to stay in the Crystal Palace any longer.
After all, it's a fight between gods and gods, and the closer it gets to the end, the more dangerous it becomes.
He endured the sting of the wounds corroded by high-level water elements all over his body, and teleported to the edge of the fish tank barrier.
Another spatial displacement, and he ran out directly.
Su Lun was relieved to breathe air.
He couldn't help in the battle inside the barrier, so he glanced at the many bloody wounds on his body and thought of dealing with them first. Although these wounds are not fatal, the corrosive nature of high-level water elements is like toxins, making them very troublesome to clean. It is impossible for the body to heal itself alone.
Su Lun took a deep breath and released the [Rune King Kong] spell. In an instant, the wound inside his body seemed to explode, and a large amount of blood mist burst out. Those "water poisons" are destroying body tissues crazily and burrowing into the flesh.
Su Lun took out some potion to neutralize the water poison and poured it on the wound. White smoke came out.
The pain was excruciating and my muscles twitched from time to time.
Su Lun remained expressionless, treating his wounds while watching the battle in the barrier.
The red light represented by Pandora now has the upper hand, forcing the blue [Sea King] to retreat steadily.
The struggle to death is the most terrifying.
The sound of this battle was several times stronger than before.
Although this seawater barrier buffered most of the shock waves of energy collisions, from the outside, the entire barrier looked like a bulging balloon that could burst at any time.
After the battle lasted for more than half an hour, suddenly, the seawater barrier exploded like a water ball, with a "bang" sound.
Heavy rain poured from the sky, pouring water on the forest.
"Killed?!"
Su Lun quickly urged the death bird to fly towards the Crystal Palace, and sure enough, he saw Pandora standing there alone. After the fierce battle, not only was her aura not weak, but her aura was even more ethereal than before. The blood-colored eyes were full of terrifying pressure that could not be looked directly into, and the reading of the moon was filled with evil energy.
The tall [Sea King] was already lying on the ground, and the trident also fell aside.
Seeing this, Su Lun didn't care about the severe pain of the tearing wound, and quickly approached.
He was afraid that something bad might happen to Pandora, so he directly let the death bird stop in front of her.
Pandora glanced at Black Crow, as if she saw Su Lun thousands of meters away. At this time, her eyes regained a trace of the emotional fluctuations of a living person, and she said calmly: "It's solved."
Su Lun was overjoyed when he heard this, and teleported away, running over almost in the blink of an eye.
When he saw Pandora, he asked first: "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine."
Pandora nodded slightly and put away the Dharma.
After saying that, she looked at Su Lun again, opened her teeth slightly, and added: "Thank you."
The tone is no longer the cold and indifferent tone of the past. Although it is still flat, people can hear the sincere emotions coming from the bottom of their hearts.
Su Lun naturally knew what this thank you meant, and glanced at the dimmed crown in Pandora's hand from the corner of his eye. He grinned and responded: "You're welcome. We are just helping each other."
If he hadn't risked his life to sneak in, Pandora wouldn't have been able to harvest the crown.
The power of faith is very important to Shinto, and Su Lun feels that she will definitely gain a lot this time.
Of course, without Pandora, Su Lun and the others would be in a very bad situation if they fell into the sea ruins this time.
It's mutually beneficial.
However, it was too late to be polite now.
Su Lun couldn't move his eyes away when he saw the golden mist floating on [Sea King]'s body.
This was the first time he saw that the soul was golden!
Because this is a false god!
This "golden mist" is truly priceless to him.
Su Lun tried to touch it, and it was like knocking on the door of a huge library.
Normally, peeling off other people's souls is like peeling off a book.
Now, although the book is almost the same, it is very "big" and "thick"!
But most of the memories in [Sea King Drake]'s soul are about Shinto beliefs. Su Lun is an alchemist and is not following this path. Those things are of no use to him.
But many things about laws are universal.
Su Lun thought about it and peeled off the golden mist.
"You stripped the soul of 'Francis Drake'"
"You have obtained '61% understanding of the law of water element', and the experience of this element is +171412"
"You have obtained a special god-level rune language [Poseidon Rune of Ximingleiwa], with a comprehension level of 15%"
"Psychic Power +12251"
「.」
If Su Lun could bear it, he would definitely not waste this rare opportunity if he wanted to absorb all the "golden mist".
But just peeling off two pieces, it was like a sponge being thrown into the sea, and it "sucked and held up" instantly.
Su Lun's head felt dizzy, and he staggered and almost lost his balance.
Pandora looked at him and asked a rare question: "Are you okay?"
Su Lun shook his head, with a hangover in his eyes, and responded: "It's okay."
It's not a serious problem, but the amount of knowledge he just peeled off was too great, which gave him a little indigestion.
I haven't experienced this feeling for a long time.
He didn't dare to say much and concentrated on absorbing the foreign knowledge.
I want to absorb as much as possible before this "golden mist" disappears.
Although Su Lun didn't peel off all the water laws that Neptune Drake majored in, he still got most of them.
His current level is still too low, and he is far from being able to understand such advanced laws, but the road is paved. In the future, he will have a smooth journey in learning and using water element spells and runes.
And that [Ximing Leiva’s Poseidon Rune] is what Su Lun wants most, a god-level rune!
This is the fish scale tattoo that Drake had on his body before.
This is the rune language passed down by the Sea God Ximin Leiva. Even Drake only understood about 15% of it.
But just this 15% has directly blocked the space cracks of the Black Scythe before, which is enough to show how powerful it is!
The principle of this rune is probably like hitting a punch in water, and the force will be somewhat dissipated by the vibration of the water.
The [Poseidon Rune] condenses the water elements into a dense structure, forming a special elemental barrier in the body that can absorb more external forces.
Su Lun previously felt that his rune diamond defense lacked some high-level runes, but now this [Poseidon Rune] fits perfectly!
Rune language is the same as "Hegemony" in the high-level field. It is no longer a simple stripping of knowledge, but a "world cognitive ability" at the level of perception. If it weren't for the rune understanding of the fourth-level inaugural selection, he wouldn't be able to peel off even 1%.
This was what surprised Su Lun.
For his future growth, the significance is even far greater than a banned object!
[Aquaman] Drake was killed, and Suellen was temporarily relieved of the pressure of death.
Although there are other very troublesome undead monsters in this sea ruins, without the commander of the Sea King, the threat is reduced by 70 to 80%.
Su Lun used the communicator to contact Qianjou's side. Sure enough, the pressure of the monster siege encountered by the Dawn Group was instantly relieved.
Without the intimidation of Neptune, those high-level monsters seemed unable to chew this hard bone and gradually fled away.
Everyone in the Dawn Group is breaking through and heading towards the Crystal Palace.
Su Lun was seriously injured and still had to digest the knowledge he had just stripped away. So he didn't rush to collect the treasures in the Crystal Palace, so he just sat cross-legged and meditated and waited.
Although Pandora on the side won, the battle was not easy, and she was also meditating cross-legged.
After waiting for a moment, there was sudden movement in the jungle.
The black crow serving as a sentinel was shot to pieces, and as he sensed it, hundreds of soul fires appeared in the jungle.
Su Lun opened his eyes and realized that the Dawn Group had not yet arrived, but some adventurers who had been attracted by the fighting here had arrived.
This group of people were more or less injured, and at first glance, there were some familiar faces.
Su Lun recognized the fifth-level bearded man leading the black panther at a glance as the leader of the treasure hunting group he had met south of Alcatraz Island before. He was accompanied by a group of adventurers wearing the same group emblem.
However, the leader of the group in front of him was not the bearded man. Instead, he was a sixth-level curly-haired middle-aged man wearing red and black baron noble clothing.
The people who come to the Imperial City have a sense of arrogance, and their clothing, demeanor, and equipment can all be seen to be several levels higher than those of ordinary adventure groups. Su Lun glanced at the badges on the chests of those people and recognized them as people from Luying's "Adventurers General Union", thinking that they were probably an adventure group funded by the government.
However, he was not interested in paying attention to these people.
Pandora didn't even move. When people came, she even covered her face.
The forest here is in a mess due to the fighting, but because the trees and vines have been cleared away, the ancient architectural ruins on the ground are more clearly visible.
Even those with good eyesight can see the Crystal Palace in the sea water pit in the distance.
On the ground, the energy of [Sea King]'s corpse has been dissipated, and there are no clues. But the shining trident next to it makes people's eyes warm.
Anyone who is not blind can see that this place is definitely a great treasure!
Su Lun felt the greedy and burning gazes and frowned slightly.
The excited exchanges of those people also came to my ears.
"Look, there is a crystal palace there! My God, I have never seen a palace made entirely of crystal. This is more luxurious than Frederick's Palace"
"Oh my God, I can already see the golden light shining in the palace. There must be countless treasures there!"
"This Alcatraz Island is full of treasures. I'm afraid this is a treasure house. Haha, we are rich."
"[The Heart of the Four Colored Elements] may be here. If we find it, we can be rewarded by the Lord."
"Have you noticed that the trident on the ground seems to be a cursed object at the level of a forbidden object?"
"Shush"
"."
The group of people were completely dazzled by the treasures everywhere. They looked at the treasures and even completely ignored the two outsiders in front of them.
It is understandable if you think about it, even Su Lun's mood was not calm after seeing those treasures before, let alone some ordinary adventurers.
"Red Nose" Miles, who was leading the black panther, naturally recognized Su Lun.
He had a good impression of the young man who had given them kind tips before.
At least I don't think they are enemies.
What's more, the panther beside him was scratching the ground uneasily, as if he wanted to remind his master not to make certain dangerous actions.
Seeing that everyone in the adventure group was fascinated by the treasure, he spoke quickly and said to the curly-haired baronet: "President Siegel, the 'news about Hai Ruins' I told you before was informed by this gentleman. ."
When he said this, he swallowed the words in his mouth, obviously not knowing how to speak.
Under normal circumstances, treasure hunting is on a first-come, first-served basis, and whoever finds the treasure first gets it.
But in fact, on the deserted sea islands where there are no legal restrictions, few people follow these rules, and there is no difference between adventurers and pirates.
What's more, with so many valuable treasures in front of him, Miles knew that everyone would never give up.
There are more than 800 of them, how could they easily give up their treasure to two people?
If he is willing, his partners will definitely not be willing.
"Oh?"
Upon hearing this, the curly-haired man named Sigel narrowed his eyes and looked at the two Su Lun in front of him.
His gaze was very vicious, and he was actually assessing the strength and risk of the person in front of him.
Su Lun's trauma was already serious, and the "sea poison" made his wounds heal very slowly. It looked like it was at the end of its tether, even though so many people came, they were still meditating. It felt like he was seriously injured and couldn't free his hands at all.
Others had no idea that Su Lun just didn't want to talk to them.
Sigel put one hand on the musket at his waist. After thinking about it, he asked: "Which regiment are you from?"
Su Lun glanced at these people and saw that they were not pirates and did not take action immediately.
He responded expressionlessly: "The Dawn Group."
The information about their Dawn Regiment will definitely be known to outsiders after this time, so there is no harm in telling them.
"Oh?"
Sigel was a little unsure where the confidence in the indifferent attitude of the two people in front of him came from.
If you are a top-level professional, adventurers like him who have been wandering at sea all year round should have heard of it more or less.
But this "Lingming Group" is very unfamiliar, and it sounds like a third-rate group.
However, although he didn't see the previous battle, he also saw the aftermath, and it was definitely not a small fight.
Sigel rolled his eyes and did not underestimate the strength of Su Lun and the others. He said cautiously: "There are rich treasures on Alcatraz Island. Since it is fate that we all meet, let's explore it together."
This was a very clever statement. It didn't say first come, first served. Everyone developed together to test each other's attitude.
"No. I think you misunderstood."
Su Lun frowned slightly, seeming to find it troublesome, but he also explained a little more: "There used to be a very powerful undead creature here, and we spent a lot of effort to kill it. According to the rules, the treasure here should be Ours. If you want to hunt for treasure, go somewhere else.”
After hearing these words, the expressions of the eight or nine hundred people opposite gradually became unkind.
Do these two people not understand the situation?
If you agree to dig together by default, you can share some treasures with him.
Does this attitude mean that you want to eat alone?
Their "Prince Carnap Treasure Hunting Group" is not someone to be trifled with.
In Lu Ying's treasure hunting circle, no one dares to offend them.
And in the eyes of the royal family's official adventure group, as long as it's not a royal family group, it's not a problem.
Hearing this, Sigel's face became unsightly, "Your Excellency, you want to monopolize the treasures here? Haha."
After all, he is a noble and wants to save face. He sneered and said, "My subordinates discovered the Crystal Palace here before. You just don't know why you happened to appear here. Now you say that the treasure is yours, do you think it is appropriate?" ”
give up?
Naturally impossible.
He felt that he was a noble nobleman, and giving a piece of the pie to a humble adventurer was already a great act of kindness. Isn't this guy satisfied with himself?
Moreover, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that the two people in front of him were bluffing.
After hearing this, Su Lun was no longer polite, looked at the people in front of him coldly, and asked with a sneer: "If you think it is inappropriate, then it is inappropriate?"
The conversation fell apart in front of him. At this time, the uneasiness in the heart of Miles, the "Red Nose" who led the Black Panther, became more and more intense.
He quickly intervened to smooth things over, and said to Su Lun: "Well, sir, as you can see, we are the 'Prince Carnap Treasure Hunting Group'. This is the prince's personal guard, the honorary vice president of the Adventurer Federation, Imperial noble, His Excellency Baron Siegel. We are here this time"
He felt that Su Lun kindly reminded them of the situation here when they met before.
It’s considered a bit of a friendship.
Now remind yourself of your identity here to prevent the other party from getting into trouble that they shouldn't.
But before he finished speaking, Su Lun interrupted him and said in a deep voice: "I have said what I should say. This is the treasure discovered by our Dawn Group. If you want to hunt for treasure, go to other places."
After a pause, he looked at the few members of the adjudication team that he had recognized before, and said: "Also. I said that I know your Captain Barrett, and he is on the island. So, if they want to Go ahead, you better not get involved.”
Hearing this, "Red Nose" Miles and several members of the Judgment Team all looked very embarrassed.
Not to mention the sensitive status of the "adjudicating panel", but in this situation, is it appropriate to say this?
But at the same time, I was confused.
There are only two of you, where do you get the confidence?
Hearing this, Sigel turned his head and glanced at his subordinate Miles. He also guessed something, but did not have an attack.
He looked at the insecure Su Lun, and his tone did not conceal the threat at all: "What do you mean, sir? Do you still know the traitor Barrett?"
Su Lun knew that these guys were determined to kill people and seize treasures, so he had no interest in telling this guy for the third time, "If you want to do it, do it. If you don't do it, get out!"
Upon hearing this, Sigel immediately became energetic.
Regardless of whether it was a bluff or not, he now had a legitimate reason to take action.
The name Barrett is not enough to make Siegel flinch!
He shouted: "The Queen has an order to kill anyone who has anything to do with traitors!"
As he spoke, he instantly pulled out the musket from his waist and pulled the trigger towards Su Lun.
"biu~"
A blue light burst out from the muzzle.
This shot was fired. Except for a few members of the Black Panthers, almost everyone raised their firearms and opened fire.
Su Lun had noticed before that there was a [Magic Pistol] on the guy's waist.
This is a very powerful alchemical firearm that the Luying Royal Academy of Sciences has been developing in recent years. It not only fires alchemical bullets, but the entire firearm is a magic guide with a special structure. It can also be considered as making up for the shortcomings of the gunmen's lack of attack power in the field of high-level professionals.
But this magic gun is really powerful, reloading and recharging is very slow, and it is very expensive.
At this stage, no one except the nobles can afford this thing.
Su Lun looked at the sky full of gunfire and there was no movement at all.
Because at this time, a burly figure appeared in front of him in an instant, and the thick silver arm filled with domineering power defeated the blue light with one punch. His burly body stood in front of Su Lun, letting bullets and shells fall on him with clanging sounds.
And it was when this burly man blocked the gunfire that everyone saw clearly that he was a man with an unshaven beard but a resolute face.
Several members of the Black Panthers instantly recognized that face, with ecstasy and shock: "Captain Barrett!"
Barrett nodded and didn't say much. He just turned sideways and exposed Su Lun, which obviously made it known that the identity of the person behind him was very special.
At the same time, Senjo suddenly appeared on a stone pillar.
She put her hand on the handle of the knife and lazily looked down at the group of guys who were watching eagerly. She muttered with disdain: "Hey, someone seems to want to touch our members of the Dawn Group?"
The members of Prince Carnap's treasure hunting group looked at the sudden appearance of Barrett and Senjo, and their expressions instantly became serious.
With such magnanimity, he is obviously a master.
Sigel recognized Barrett, and his pupils shrank suddenly. Although he was not afraid, he did not expect that the guy was really here.
And, it’s not over yet!
Listening again, there seemed to be movement in the jungle that a large number of people were surrounding.
Before those people could react too much, everyone from the Dawn Group arrived! (End of chapter)
