Chapter 679: Tracing the Roots (Second Update)
"What's wrong with mining?" the crowd wondered even more.
"It's not lifeless as I expected, but it has its own unique creatures, magical creatures that feed on energy crystals, and their strength is quite terrifying. Sean said with a mysterious look on his face, deliberately hanging his appetite.
"Energy crystals for food?"
"The two soul war beasts didn't make a joint move?"
"What the hell is it? Hurry up and make it clear, don't be vague here. ”
Sure enough, the key points mentioned by Sean aroused their keen interest.
"I don't know what kind of creature this creature is, so I'm here to consult you, and I'll show you the memory images of the two soul beasts fighting him. Sean didn't continue to say more, and directly released the memory image of the purple monster.
"Whew, it's incredible that there are such huge creatures in this world. ”
"Could it be that this creature is like an earthworm that lives entirely underground?"
"It's incredible, it's incredible, there are such unique creatures in the world, I wonder if your kid is the illegitimate child of Lady Luck? I have lived for more than a hundred and twenty years, and I have encountered this strange thing as much as you have encountered in a year. ”
The four of them were all attracted by Sean's memory images, and couldn't help but let out a series of exclamations.
Whether it is the huge size or the unique attack pattern, the purple monster is too visually striking.
There are all experienced people present, and just by taking a glimpse of it, you can analyze a lot of things from it, and you don't need Sean to explain it in detail at all.
"It's not a natural creature, it's more like a magical creation. The old ancestor sighed leisurely.
"Magical Creation, does the Ancestor know the origin of this big guy?" Sean perked up and asked with great joy, he was here for this.
"I don't know either, it's just a little guess. The old ancestor shook his head and said.
"What is the reason why the Ancestor said that it was a magical creation?" asked Sean unrelentingly.
"I don't know if you've heard of the origin of the Odin orcs?" the old ancestor asked without answering.
"I've heard of it, isn't it the experimental product of the Warlocks of the Imperial period in order to create more powerful soldiers? What does this have to do with this monster? Could it be that the Ancestor said that it was also one of the products of that period?" asked Sean suspiciously.
"The Odin steppe used to be the empire's largest hunting ground and test base, those imperial warlocks who were fanatical about the study of spells, once did all kinds of crazy experiments here, Odin orcs can only be regarded as relatively successful works, and there are many unknown works, all of which have been buried with history, in a unique environment, some creatures are not impossible to survive, do you think that the natural environment can give birth to such a twisted and extreme predator?" The old ancestor pointed to the raging purple monster and continued to ask rhetorically.
Sean thought about it seriously for a while, and finally shook his head and said, "The possibility is very low, but is there another possibility, it is a creature from another world, or from the shadow gap, after all, there is a good chance that the two worlds have connected." ”
"Whether it comes from another world or not, I can't give you an answer, but one thing is for sure, it definitely doesn't come from the shadows, the creatures of the shadow world, whether they are born from the shadows or not, will be impregnated by the power of the shadow world, with a distinct mark, as long as you know a little about the shadow gap, you can clearly identify them. The Old Ancestor replied in an unusually affirmative tone.
"That's right, although this guy is deformed, he doesn't have the slightest trace of shadow aura on his body, and he definitely can't be born in the shadow world. Grand Elder Nitya also said in an unusually affirmative tone.
"Don't you have any information about this guy?" asked Sean a little unwillingly.
If there is nothing to be gained from these four people in front of him, it is even less likely that Sean will gather information from other sources.
"If this guy is a magical creation during the Imperial period, even if you find its original materials, it is meaningless, because after so many years of self-growth, especially in the extreme environment with many energy crystals, it has already been born out of the first draft, if it really comes from another world, maybe this is the first time it has been exposed to the eyes of the world, you are the first to discover, naturally there is no information to check. "The old ancestor spread his hands and put on a posture that I couldn't do anything about this matter.
"I've heard a legend that is very popular among the Orcs of Odin, and I don't know if it's useful to my lord. The chief of staff of the main Hebrew army of Ban said.
"What legend? Sean, who was already completely disappointed, hurriedly asked.
"Legend has it that there is a terrible monster under the Odin savannah, and when he is angry, the sky will be red, the earth will crack, and both humans and animals will fall into the cracks, and no one will find them again, it is the pet of the god of death, and no one has ever seen this terrible monster, because everyone who has seen it is dead. The chief of staff of the main Hebrew army of Ben replied.
"What else?" Sean asked.
"That's all. Ben Hebrew said.
"That's all?" Sean's eyes widened.
"That's all. Ben Hebrew replied in the affirmative, "Those who saw it are already dead, and certainly it is impossible to leave much useful." ”
"Isn't that the same as not saying it? There are many possibilities for cracks in the earth, and it's not just this guy who can do it, a strong earthquake, or a landslide, or even a desert quicksand. Sean said with some annoyance.
"As I said earlier, I may not be able to help my lord. "The chief of staff of the main Hebrew of Ban looked innocent.
"I'm sorry, I lost my temper. Sean took a deep breath and readjusted his apparently somewhat unbalanced mindset.
"Your Excellency, this is a habit of fighting prepared battles, but not all enemies can be understood thoroughly, just change the way of fighting. Ben Hebrew suggested with a smile.
"Thanks to the Chief of Staff for his advice, I will adjust my mentality. Sean nodded and changed the subject, "I wonder if you have any research on charm spells, especially charm or domestication of monsters?"
When Sean said this, his eyes were more focused on Speaker Abner and the Ancestor, as for the Grand Elder Nitya and the chief of staff of the main Hebrew of Ben Hebrew in the field of magic, he knew the roots, and he definitely did not have the ability and knowledge in this area.
"Enchanting monster?" Even the Old Ancestor couldn't help but gasp, "Could it be that you want to not only kill this guy, but also tame it?"
The combat effectiveness that the purple monster has just shown is obvious to all, even if she is put on the battlefield, she has no good way but to flee in the wilderness.
This guy's abilities are too relevant.
Once you drill into the ground, there is nothing you can do about him.
"Don't you think it's the best artifact for infrastructure building? Not only can it make holes quickly, but it also comes with magic cement. Sean's smile was very obscene, "The most important thing is that it can feed on energy crystals, even if it has a demand for normal meat at that time, it will not be particularly large, where can I find such a rare tool?"
Both the old ancestor and the general speaker Abner looked at Sean a little speechlessly, and did not really understand his excitement.
On the contrary, the chief of staff of the main Hebrew force of Ban, who has been fighting in the Eternal Night military leadership system for many years, has already been almost assimilated, and instantly understood the essence of it, as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, he slapped his thigh heavily and said: "Why didn't I think of it? If we can get this guy done, our railway project will be put on the agenda immediately, and the mining work that Tagore is presiding over can also help, we must catch this guy, we must catch it alive, it really can't be done, bring back a copy of its various biological samples, let's see if we can create a similar biological machine through biological means, our biological anomaly research institute is not dry. ”
"That's what I thought, too. Sean had a relieved expression, "That's why I came back to look for a way to tame it, the normal way to deal with the beast is definitely not good for it, including anesthetics, I estimate that this guy, the inside of the body has already been transformed by a large amount of magic energy, it is very likely that he will not eat this set, the only way to think of it is the spell." ”
"Don't look at me. Speaker Abner waved his hand and said, "I'm not interested in this part, I've never studied it. ”
"What about the old ancestor?" Sean could only pin his last hope on the old birthday star.
"Charm spells, know a little, but haven't studied them in depth. "The old ancestor did not live up to Sean's expectations, her knowledge of magic is indeed very complex, and when she says that she understands, it is not as simple as knowing a little bit of skin.
Sean hurriedly put on a deferential look.
"Charm spells, to put it bluntly, are not as advanced as you think, most of them directly affect the soul consciousness, if you can affect a person's soul consciousness through silent means, his words and deeds will naturally be controlled by you. The old ancestor said succinctly, "The spiritual spells I know are all performed through the soul, and they are all variants of soul spells. ”
"I see. Sean felt suddenly enlightened, "This is exactly what I want to find, this guy, the body is extremely powerful, but the soul is not necessarily equally powerful, if I can defeat it in the soul, I can naturally make it useful to me." ”
"The truth is such a truth, but when you really do it, you have to be careful, the soul composition is far more complex than you think, and it is also fragile, and the soul war is also more dangerous than you think, once it is badly damaged, it will be extremely difficult to repair. The old ancestor admonished.
"I know. Sean smiled and said, "Don't forget, my soul consciousness is still blessed by the Mage Tower! That guy can't compare with me in this aspect at all, there is no certainty of victory, I won't take risks easily, you guys are busy, I'll study and study." ”
Sean Xing left in a hurry, he had already found an eyebrow to deal with the purple monster.
When it comes to the study of souls, Sean is much higher than the old ancestor expected.
Counting it up, Sean has really accumulated a lot of good things in terms of soul.
Combat skills, spells, etc., are all rehashed of the same old tune.
What is truly unique is the array of soul-related things harvested from the god of death - souls, giants' souls, and law runes.
Because there are too many good things in his hands, and Sean's mind is more used for popularization, these rare materials are not fully utilized.
Now that there is a need, it is natural to use their brains on them.
If you want to take them out, the biggest difficulty should be that they are in a soul state, and they are easy to be targeted by the laws of the plane.
Even if they had absorbed Sean's power of the law and tempered their soul bodies, greatly improving their resistance to the laws of the plane, it didn't mean that they could leave the mage tower for a long time.
When Sean used to shape his combat skills, he had developed some ways to use them, allowing them to sit in the mage tower, and their souls were magnified ten thousand times, and they were summoned to assist in the battle through their combat skills.
This approach is feasible and has been put into use, but in terms of value, it is nowhere near as high as Sean thinks.
Because it is not the power of the summoned person to determine the combat power of the summoned battle spirit, it is also not limited by the power used by the summoner, but also the variable of distance needs to be taken into account.
This distance refers to the straight-line distance the summoner is from the Northern Fortress.
The closer they are to the Northern Fortress, the same summoning power, the stronger the combat power that can be borrowed from summoning the war spirit, if it is too far away, the power used to summon the war spirit is completely disproportional to the power paid.
This distance limit is currently 300 kilometers.
If it is within three hundred kilometers, this is a more cost-effective deal, the closer the better, if it is summoned from the northern fortress, it is not uncommon to directly summon their body, it depends on the will of these war spirits themselves.
Vice versa.
This characteristic is not determined by the summoning spirit itself, but is limited by the overall environment.
This kind of combat skill still has a very large potential to be tapped, and when the energy concentration of the general environment spell increases, the summoning limit will naturally decrease.
However, compared to this possibility, Sean values another possibility more - the laying of the Eternal Night Army's own energy pipeline network.
The energy pipeline network is laid, which means that the tentacles of the northern fortress are extended, and when calculating the distance, it is natural to start from the nearest energy pipeline.
This is more time-sensitive than the changes in the general environment, how the former changes, Sean can't control it, but the latter is up to him.
The Energy Mine is more than 3,000 kilometers away from the Northern Fortress, and it is unknown whether Sean, even if he is the creator of this skill, will be able to summon it.
Sean now needs to find a way to get them out of the Mage Tower.
If Sean used his body, it would be very simple.
Since the beginning of the cell rune culture, there is no way to measure the vitality of Sean's body with common sense, and in a short period of time, it is not difficult to carry three or five additional powerful battle spirits.
It's just that if you put yourself in danger, even to the level of your ancestors, you don't dare to easily say that you don't want your body.
Although the old ancestor did not say it explicitly, he had already vaguely hinted that the soul injection ritual to replace the body was a way not to use it unless it was absolutely necessary, if it was used too much, not only would there be hidden dangers that he could not imagine, but after his own cultivation reached a certain level, it would become an insurmountable shackle, and it would be difficult to peek into the demeanor of the supreme power.
Sean was convinced of this.
Because if you want to climb to the pinnacle of power, the power of the law is an inevitable part.
Changing the body is something that is not allowed by the power of the law.
Even if the law of the plane is deceived by the method, when the power of the law is really used or the power of the law is really used in the future, the danger of this hidden danger will be greatly magnified.
Therefore, Sean's flesh is reflected in the fact that even if his combat strength is unparalleled, there are few who can match it in the continent several times, and there are fewer and fewer opportunities to make a move, anyway, he has a lot of means now, and those who can use the soul battle body will use the soul battle body, and those who can't use the energy clone.
Anyway, with the continuous enhancement of the physical body, the flickering spell energy fluctuations on its body are not weaker than those of the energy clone, even some people who are very familiar with Sean are difficult to distinguish the difference between the deity and the energy clone.
This time Sean is not ready to make an exception either.
