Chapter 393 Deep Exploration and End of Battle


Chapter 393 Deep Exploration and End of Battle

The "giant" had been dead for a long time, but he still stood in the depths of the sea of ​​blood. The skin of his corpse was covered with mold spots and even showed numerous areas of decay. Mythical worms as wide and long as city streets were drilling and gnawing inside his body.

There is also a "tumor" on one side of his neck, which is extremely scarlet.

However, this "tumor" is actually a fruit made of flesh and blood, with clusters of roses growing around it, and vines covered with barbed thorns wrapping around the "giant"'s body, like shackles or parasitism.

And that strange light emanates from this fruit!

Chen Lun stood in the distance. Although his sense of smell was blocked, he suddenly found that he could "smell" the breath of knowledge! The weird aroma emanating from that fruit contains extremely strong pollution, mixed with extraordinary knowledge of the flesh and blood path!

Through the constant prompts coming from the panel, he knew that his sanity value was decreasing crazily.

And the extraordinary knowledge of the flesh and blood faction is constantly being poured into his mind!

[Sequence 9-Butcher], [Sequence 8-Gourmet], [Sequence 7-Ghoul], [Sequence 6-Bloodborn] and [Sequence 5-Bone Man]...all are under his control!

More esoteric mythological knowledge followed.

Chen Lun felt a dull swelling and pain in his brain, as if the knowledge he could bear had almost reached its limit. But this time, he decided to grit his teeth and hold on for a while longer, trying to get more.

At the same time, the pollution source ahead also changed!

Those fat and thick giant worms seemed to have discovered Chen Lun's existence. They emerged from the body of the "giant" corpse one after another, jumped into the sea of ​​blood, and swam towards him quickly.

Wow...

The worms broke out of the water, like dark brown stone pillars covered with circular patterns, rolling over the river and sea, and smashed down on Chen Lun's head. This terrifying sense of déjà vu is like standing in front of a high-rise building with hundreds of floors, and this sky-high building is about to collapse towards you!

Bang!

Bang bang bang! !

There was an earth-shattering noise in the sea of ​​blood.

Countless blood sprays reached tens to hundreds of meters high, and the heavy beating even forced Chen Lun to block his hearing to avoid being disturbed by the loud noise.

In order to avoid these terrifying worms, he had to use teleportation several times in succession to get enough distance... After all, these worms were really too big! Any one of them is comparable to the "fallen body" that was besieged by Ginsberg and other consuls before!

Boom, boom, boom! !

Chen Lun kept shuttling back and forth in this space, struggling to dodge the blows that covered the sky and the sun.

His body was inevitably covered with blood and he looked miserable.

‘Hold on a little longer…’

Chen Lun gritted his teeth, endured the increasing pain in his head, and concentrated on paying attention to the worms slapping from all directions.

Two minutes passed again.

He finally felt that he had successfully gathered a copy of the high-level knowledge in his mind.

So Chen Lun no longer hesitated, immediately communicated with the wooden house in the initial area, and teleported away directly.

boom!

The vast and terrifying phantom-like sea of ​​blood, the corpses of giants parasitized by flesh fruits and rose flowers, and those horrifyingly huge worms all disappeared one after another. Instead, there is a quiet and peaceful interior layout of the wooden house.

Chen Lun let out a long breath and collapsed directly on the wooden bed, his chest and abdomen shaking violently.

Sweat soaked his clothes, but he didn't care. With trembling hands, he took out two enhanced versions of the "Calming Spirit Elixir" and the "Thirst Strength Elixir" and drank them down.

It took more than ten minutes to recover.

Chen Lun sat up with difficulty and then began to sort out his harvest.

‘Similar to the upside-down tree and the white cocoon on the corpse mountain before, I obtained all the extraordinary knowledge in the corresponding sequence of the flesh and blood path from the blood sea giant...’

A smile appeared on his pale face.

'And, unlike the previous two times, I gained a complete piece of mythological knowledge! [Sequence 4-Sin Eater], this is the sequence Rafa is in! ’

This is also the only complete high-level knowledge he has mastered so far.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Lun checked the consumption of this trip.

During this period, players were busy participating in the Bloody Battle and rarely entered Fairyland to play a game. As a result, the efficiency of harvesting sanity points dropped significantly... The sanity value reserve that had just risen to 9000+ dropped directly to around 6000.

‘But it’s all worth it. After all, I haven’t mastered the flesh-and-blood knowledge of Sequences six, five, and high-level sequence four...’

He seemed to think of something again and sighed.

'Unfortunately, the current sub-professional [Recorder] cannot copy knowledge above the mid-level sequence. Otherwise, I can use this to copy the precious extraordinary knowledge in my mind in exchange for more resources to improve myself. ’

In his previous life, Chen Lun's level was still too low, and he had never seen a higher-level sub-profession.

But he knows that there is definitely a power in this world that can reproduce the extraordinary knowledge above the middle sequence... Otherwise, the knowledge inheritance of those big forces and the few high-level books spread out would not be possible.

'When the Speaker comes back, find an opportunity to ask him...'

Chen Lun thought to himself.

Next, he first exited the fairyland and took a short rest in the real world.

Wait until that night and enter again.

This time, he started from the top of the ivory tower on the easternmost side of the Crystal Mountains and explored in depth from east to west.

Black barren rocks can be seen everywhere, and peaks stand there.

Along the way, he encountered various statues of creatures, some in animal form, some in human form, and even more bizarre statues whose nature was difficult to discern. Their respective powers are also all kinds of strange, and none of them are similar.

And these are the differences in each mountain peak area.

At the same time, it also confirmed Chen Lun's original conjecture... On the top of each mountain, there are the souls of the magicians of a school, and these statues are their creations.

The differences between schools only start from [Sequence 6 - Mystic Mage]. The "secret methods" of each school are different and each has its own system... As far as Chen Lun himself knows, most of the extraordinary people of magic schools are It is passed down in the form of master and apprentice, and of course there is also a school situation similar to the Madman School or the Byron Kingdom.

But one thing in common is that no matter which school or force they are, they will cherish the "secret method" they have mastered and will not easily spread it to others. After reaching [Sequence Five-Sculptor], this distinction becomes even more obvious.

Among them, the magicians of the School of All Things mostly create sculptures of animals, plants, and insects that exist in nature, while the School of Madmen creates some "things that do not exist in the world" based on their imagination.

Unconstrained and strange looking.

If you don't understand the information, you will most likely suffer a big loss when you face off against a magician from the Madman School for the first time.

As for the idol school to which Carmen belongs, it focuses on people. The sculptures of this school are often based on a high-ranking person in a mysterious field, or a saint or an angel, or even a god! Then borrow their images to gain part of the power.

By fighting against the ghosts of magicians from different schools, Chen Lun gained a deeper understanding of magic pathways.

Eight or nine hours passed like this.

Chen Lun has already explored six mountains.

Although there were only two wooden houses found, and the extraordinary knowledge Philip left behind were the remnants of the "useless" [Juggler], he still continued to delve deeper without getting tired of it.

After all, if you want to upgrade [Juggler] to the full level, you need a lot of experience points... The deceitful avatar is leading a team to hunt down the Red Apple Church, and his own body can't slack off either.

You can take advantage of this opportunity to kill the souls of the magicians and get tens of thousands of experience points. Although it is not much, the wins are steadily accumulated.

A week passed like this.

In addition to his daily meals and rest, Chen Lun spent all the rest of his time in the Fairyland Crystal Mountain area.

He has visited almost all the mountains, destroyed countless statues, and killed countless ghosts of magicians. Although he is very tired, he has also gained a lot.

The first is the experience value, which totals 125W+. The second is the extraordinary material "wisdom dust" left by the soul of the magician. There are about thirty copies. As for the "Zhan Hui Stone" obtained from the statue creature, he also has a pile of it.

At this moment, Chen Lun had entered the deepest part from the center of the Crystal Mountain Range, and found that it was a canyon-like structure... The ground not far ahead was cracked, bottomless, pitch black, and he could feel the depth inside. There was a terrible smell.

The source of constant warnings from spiritual intuition seems to come from the abyss under this mountain range!

‘Clarenzo, the mad god of murals, most likely lives under the abyss of the Crystal Mountains... Perhaps the most valuable place in this area is also here. ’

Chen Lun frowned and looked at the entrance. After thinking about it for a while, he finally gave up the idea of ​​going in.

'Now is not the time. The risk of facing the mad god is too high, and the gain outweighs the loss... Moreover, version 1.0 is about to end. By then, players will be offline collectively due to version updates. The sanity value reserve of the Maggie statue has lost its source. I can no longer act like I was so squandering in the past... I have to use it sparingly. ’

He turned to look further away. Above the abyss, there was a broken and floating path. It looked like there were traces of artificial excavation, and it spread all the way to the top of the mountain. It was unknown how to cross this last ridge through it, and to the other side. What a scene.

Chen Lun thought for a while, first found a black rock nearby and sat down, then spent all the experience points on the panel, upgraded to six levels, and after using up the attribute points, the four-dimensional attributes reached a unified 165 points. , he then took off into the air and flew along the path to the highest point of the mountain range.

Whoosh!

The tiny figure soared up the steep rock wall and path at an extremely fast speed. It took him nearly a minute to reach the top...

Standing on the top of the mountain, it is surprisingly calm, and you can't even feel any breeze.

There was silence.

Chen Lun looked at the other side, but his expression changed drastically.

"What is that?!"

He couldn't help but murmur.

Behind the Crystal Mountains, I saw a vast expanse of nothingness. It was dark and deep, and even flickered with starlight... It was as if the earth no longer existed, and was replaced by a stage similar to the universe, with no up, down, left, right, front and rear depth, etc. space concept.

At the farthest point as far as the eye can see, there seems to be an endless ancient "high wall" rising straight into the sky, like a curtain in the cosmic starry sky, blocking the "truth" at the end of the world, making it impossible for Chen Lun to know what is happening there. There is something beyond the high wall.

Chen Lun stood there and hesitated, secretly guessing.

'Perhaps... when Philip was exploring the dream world, he only came here. Those areas of nothingness and beyond the high walls were areas that he could not touch... so that the recreated fairyland lacked this part of the area. , like an air zone in the game without specific modeling and textures. ’

Although he was curious about what lay ahead, he would not try it rashly.

Because his spiritual intuition told him that this was likely to have terrifying and unknown consequences.

‘Let’s just come here first…Except for the abyss under the Crystal Mountains, I have basically been to all the areas that can be explored in Wonderland. ’

Chen Lun thought to himself.

‘Perhaps the next area linked to the abyss is the end of Wonderland mentioned by Philip, the dark world where Arnold lives... It’s just the mythical knowledge of Destiny Sequence Four, but there is still no trace. ’

Another half month has passed.

The fraud incarnation finally brought good news.

The remaining nine war zones in Gemstone State and Yan State have all been declared conquered!

At the same time, the faceless waiter also sent the latest information.

With Chen Lun taking advantage of the prophet and providing important intelligence to the government, in addition to the two cities under the responsibility of the Generous Council, the other four cities attacked by the official asylum, the Sun Church and the Moon Church achieved equally impressive results.

Three base fortresses, plus seventeen node fortresses, were all destroyed!

Although the remaining five node fortresses could not be removed due to various accidents, they also lost their function... The ultra-high-standard ceremony "Scarlet Ceremony" originally arranged secretly by the Red Apple Church was destroyed to pieces. .

They may also be very confused as to whether there is a mole in the church, or whether the empire has used some secret divination method to predict their plans.

In short, the Red Apple Church was on the losing side this time.

Countless clergymen died in the battle, including six of the Ten Core Archbishops of the Scarlet Monastery, and the remaining four were more or less injured and escaping... As for the current Pope Louisa, she was tried by two empires. They were besieged by five saints including the Chief, Pope Diverni of the Church of the Sun, Pope Viola of the Church of the Moon, and Azgierro, the Speaker of the Generous Council.

If it weren't for the powerful self-preservation ability of [Sequence 3-Fallen Archduke], Louisa would have died long ago... In the end, he risked most of his life and shocked five people with [S-level magic object-Rose Bible], seriously injuring them. get away.

None of the five besieging saints wanted to be dragged into the water, and even serious injuries felt that it was not worth it... They knew very well that if Louisa really had the intention to die, it was very likely that one of them would die with her.

This battle was fought in darkness, from the shallow to the second level of the spiritual world, and even to the dark world, there was a strong storm and turmoil...

But this major incident finally ended with the defeat of the Red Apple Church.

Countless clergy followed the high-level officials and fled through the pre-arranged spiritual passage, directly crossing the Anlong United Kingdom in the west and heading to the Beelzebub Kingdom in the far west.

Chen Lun listened to the faceless waiter's report and remained silent.

In the original world line, the turmoil caused by the Red Apple Church lasted until the end of the solar calendar year 4420... But now in early February, the turmoil has been calmed down.

He was very involved in this. First, he pushed the Murder Club to take the seat of the Righteous God Church, adding a powerful force to the bloody battle. Later, he relied on the prophetic intelligence to minimize the role of the Fortress of Abomination, and directly removed the Red Apple. The secret of the church's "Scarlet Ceremony" ceremony was revealed, completely disrupting the other party's arrangements.

Even the guardian of one of the three most important base fortresses, Rafa, the original end-level BOSS of version 1.0, was designed to be lured out by him and killed by Speaker Azgierro himself, thus affecting the overall situation and causing the Red Apple Church to accelerate. Defeat.

At this point, various fate lines were disrupted and stirred by Chen Lun personally using unconventional means, ending the main storyline of this version more than half a year in advance.

‘The next step is to settle the third link of the main mission...Then the version will be updated and the players will go offline collectively. ’

Chen Lun thought to himself.

'But before that, let's harvest their wallets and sanity. Who knows how long it will take for version updates in this world... If it takes a few years, my life will be very tight. ’

Today I feel confused, dozing off all the time, my head hurts, and my condition is very bad... I originally planned to finish it today, but it seems that it won't work. ​
