Chapter 35: Lower, Mediar, and Upper Planes (Subscription Requested)
In the burned abandoned house, Shi Yinghu looked at the blue-robed old man who had passed out in a coma, and gently kicked the little fat next to him.
"Stupid dog, I'm looking for a beautiful woman, not an old man who is about to die...... Phew, forget it, it's really not easy to find a civilian who hasn't died in Dacrim now. While speaking, Shi Yinghu took out a bottle of water and walked towards the old man, he helped the other party up and fed him some water.
"Whew, you...... Leave me alone, run, get out of here. ”
The old man is good, slowly opened his eyes, and after regaining some consciousness, his first reaction was to let himself run for his life, and this alone made Shi Yinghu's good impression of him increase a lot.
"Don't worry, don't worry, it's okay, it's okay, I'm here. While patting the old man's back, Shi Yinghu said as he spoke.
The old man's eyes scanned, he looked up and down the armor and robes on Shi Yinghu's body, and then looked at the skeleton warriors around him, and his eyes flashed with a strong look of disappointment.
"Hurry up and run, someone is chasing me, ...... with your strength" Before he finished speaking, the young mage in front of him shoved the water in his hand into his hand, because at this time, a barbarian had once again walked into the burned abandoned house, and when he saw this barbarian, Kane closed his eyes in despair, thinking that he was about to take the life of an innocent person again.
The barbarian was tall and strong, dressed in thick and fine leather armor, carrying two heavy axes on his back, while in his hands he gripped a struggling Assassin girl with one hand.
"Hahaha, old man, your life is really worth it, because how many witchers have you died? ten, twenty, or fifty? hahahahaha, and now there is another one!" In the midst of a wild laugh, the depraved barbarian threw the Assassin girl against the side wall, and with a bang, the wall shattered, burying the Assassin girl in it.
However, she did not die for the time being, because after killing the little necromancer in front of her, the fallen barbarian still planned to have fun with her, and refreshed herself, as her own depravity, chaotic emotions and endless madness filled the heart of this fallen man more and more.
“...... Are you Professor Deka Kane?" Listening to the words of the fallen barbarian, Shi Yinghu turned around in some surprise, although the other party did not say it explicitly, but in the current Dacrim is worth this value, Professor Sherkain has nothing else.
Shi Yinghu didn't expect that the stupid and cute stupid dog Chubby accidentally caught a big fish for himself.
Aretta had told herself about this mission, but because the task was so difficult, even with Aretta's ambition, she didn't plan to try to complete it with a newly created team, because the possibility of team destruction was too high.
"Be careful!" Kane didn't expect that the actual combat experience of the little necromancer in front of him was so poor, and he would actually be distracted and turn his head at the middle of the battle.
"Die!" to the high-pitched battle cry of the fallen barbarian, he picked up his back and slashed wildly with his tomahawk.
The barbarian profession was originally dominated by physical strength, and after the fall, this man's strength increased even more, and at this moment, it exploded violently, shaking in all directions, and the air was violently pushing and exploding. In Kane's eyes, more than a dozen thick pitch-black axe shadows broke through the air, and the killing intent was cold and terrifying, and it seemed irresistible!
However, just as Kane and the fallen barbarian glanced at each other, they could tell that Shi Yinghu's mage level was not high:
The cheap robes, armor, and five skeleton warriors around the body all showed the word shabby.
Only the mutated skeleton warrior with the sheathed sword on his back is a little interesting, but it is only a little interesting, five bones, the skeleton recovery level is no more than ten levels, a low-level necromancer like this, even if he has a mutant skeleton, how many times can the mutated skeleton mutate, how strong can it be?
However, in the same way, the moment the fallen barbarian walked in, Shi Yinghu glanced at it twice, and knew the approximate cultivation level of the other party:
A wild and disordered arrogance, this shows that the mind is not well controlled, in the qi and blood system martial arts system, the second-order dark energy is up to the sky, it is impossible to rush into the third-order transformation power realm, the battle is imminent, and the eyes are still uncontrollable to linger on the assassin girl in his hand...... This kind of cultivator who is full of desires that are difficult to control himself, even if he has bonuses in all aspects, his strength can be strong to the third order of the top heaven, and even if he falls into hell, he is only the lowest level of demons.
The more demonic you are, the more you have to have self-control, and have a strong ability to control your own desires, otherwise, you won't be able to go far at all.
Therefore, don't look at the momentum of this degenerate barbarian in front of him, but Shi Yinghu looks down on him at all, and even turns around when he is fighting, because, on the one hand, Shi Yinghu doesn't think that this guy is worth making his own move, and on the other hand, he is also stimulating and tempting the other party to make a crazy move, which is called selling a flaw, waiting for you to die yourself.
"Boom!"
"Roar!"
The other party rushed with an axe, and there were blazing flames spreading around Shi Yinghu, and the three-headed dog of hell was instigated to save the dog's life when facing Shi Yinghu, and from time to time he was coquettish and cute, and when he faced his beloved sister Fenrir, he knelt and licked wildly, showing the posture of licking a dog.
But, in fact, Chubby is a three-headed fierce dog from hell with pure blood, very fierce!
It faced Shi Yinghu's instigation, precisely because of its pure bloodline and strong survival instinct, the three-headed dog of hell raised by the necromancer, this plane has a history of being chubby, which is very rare and almost unique.
And the moment the fallen barbarian in front of him rushed up, Xiao Fat suddenly grew bigger, and the next moment, the burst flame bomb X3 spewed out one after another.
Burst flame bomb, this should be regarded as a fire-based skill, but covered by the legendary bloodline of the three-headed dog of hell, the system does not display it at all, because there is no need to display, the legendary flame monster, will it spit out a fire skill?
It's like a normal human being can breathe, it's instinctive.
Bang bang, the heat was so hot that the explosive flame bomb spread, but the fallen barbarian still continued to charge fiercely, he clearly knew that he would never retreat in the face of this kind of mage, and the more he coaxed, the more he would be played to death by others.
However, the four skeleton warriors collided in a knife formation, and there was a hidden echo between them.
(How many levels has his grandmother been promoted to control skeletons? This is a noble necromancer who came out for recreation?) The degenerate barbarian, who was already difficult to ride a tiger, roared and swung his axe to change his moves, and at the cost of being slashed in several places, he slashed the four skeleton warriors in an instant, revealing the exaggerated brutality of the two-axe barbarian.
However, in the flame field, the mutant skeleton man with the long sword on his back was already standing in front of him, and his presence was so calm that he actually reminded himself of the barbarian teacher he met when he was still training.
"You can't stop me!" he roared, dispelling the fear in his heart, and the muscles around his body swelled, and he erupted more and more violently, and his beard and hair were all open.
However, the steel bone calmly and even indifferently slowly drew his sword, and in the next moment, a faint cold air spread, and the flames flying around were forcibly suppressed.
The next moment, the sword light flickered and popped out, roaring like a dragon and a snake.
Qiang, Qiang, Qiang......
It was obviously a one-handed sword, but the steel bone was held with both hands, and the three swords and three axes between the other party attacked each other, accompanied by a pop, in the disbelieving eyes of the fallen barbarian, he watched the mutated skeleton in front of him, and stabbed it into the atrium of his left chest.
(How could this be? I...... )
The difference between the fight and the victory was as fast as lightning, and the steel bone was also hit by the opponent's axe, even if it avoided the vital point, its qi and blood dropped by a third, but it stabbed the heart of the fallen barbarian in front of him with a sword, and constantly pushed him back in a frenzy, and the last elbow knocked the fallen barbarian whose strength had dissipated.
Shi Yinghu was born in the horizontal practice of sword cultivation, and the number of martial arts roads is mostly fierce, so although he uses a sword in this life, the steel bone that inherits his martial arts heritage still takes a strong and stable way in the style of play, of course, it can also be mysterious and changeable, but it is not as strong as the number of fierce and stable roads.
"Quick...... Escape?" He also couldn't believe the scene in front of him, and the sage of Kane who had witnessed everything, after this period of pursuit, the old man was really physically and mentally exhausted, and he couldn't see any more professionals die for himself, but he never dreamed that the final battle situation was like this, the terrible barbarian who had been chasing him and Akdis for several days was killed in just an instant.
"You...... Which Grandmaster are you?" Kane suddenly thought of a possibility, some Necromantic Grandmasters can rejuvenate themselves by refining necromancy and transforming their own flesh or blood. At the moment, it seems that this is the only explanation that makes sense.
"The Brotherhood of Swords and Shields, Kate Bryan of the Blazing Heart Squad, has come to the rescue of the Kane Sage. Shi Yinghu didn't explain too much, he could see that the old man in front of him was physically and mentally exhausted, and he really needed to rest. What's more, in a sense, Kane is not wrong.
From that dirt slope all the way uncontrollably fell down, although it was indeed dangerous, but his own body of qi and blood dark energy was also through, and the dark energy passed through the body, entering the realm of transforming energy, which itself is nothing, but with Shi Yinghu's martial arts swordsmanship, there is no problem at all to call him a swordsmanship master.
The strength of the realm of transformation runs through the body, and with a sharp sword in hand, the lethal and destructive power has increased by more than ten times, but there are few or no people in this world who are promoted to grandmasters purely by virtue of martial arts and swordsmanship.
............
A civilization is a system.
If a road goes smoothly, it is already a broad road that has been confirmed by predecessors, then no one will go another way.
Just like the imperial examination system of Yan and Huang, the predecessors have confirmed that it can be used to leave a name in history and become rich and glorious, so it will be difficult for modern science to develop, and it will even be suppressed.
In the true qi martial arts world, the qi and blood martial arts can't develop, in the dark world, there is obviously a career route to go, no one will play hard to figure out how to promote the grandmaster or even the legendary realm purely by martial arts, even if there is such a person, the success rate is also a problem, opening up an unprecedented avenue, this is not an easy task, even, this is a matter of great chance of failure.
After setting up the Kane Sage and even digging out the seriously injured Assassin Girl for treatment, Shi Yinghu took the skeleton with him and came to the depraved barbarian who was still pretending to be dead.
"You've been lying on your stomach for a long time, have you figured it out? If you haven't figured it out, I'll let the dog go." Playing with the chubby three heads in his arms, how do you see how this guy dislikes its deformity, Shi Yinghu said.
Ordinary humans, with a sword in the heart, are basically dead, but in the case of the degenerate, this is not necessarily, and the vitality of the degenerate is sometimes almost as powerful as a monster.
“...... You, don't kill me...... This world is doomed to destruction, and you are with us, you are so powerful, even if you go to hell, you can live well and comfortably, and even have a broader future. Clutching his chest, the badly wounded barbarian rolled over and could tell that he did possess an organ such as a heart, and had given himself a recovery potion. However, the Runic Word "Steel" has a 50% chance of inflicting Bleeding over time...... The steel bone pierced the heart with a sword, and this chance was basically equal to one hundred percent, so that the continuous bloodletting made this barbarian weaker and weaker, and it has not eased up until now.
The Fallen Barbarian thought he had spoken his most demagogic words, however, the necromancer in front of him directly lifted out the three-headed dog in his arms, although at this moment it was lifted on the back of its neck and spit out its pink tongue and looked fat, but the Fallen Barbarian knew very well how fierce this guy was when he grew bigger.
It's the size of a calf, and it can swallow its entire head in just one bite.
"You know what I want to ask, and if you say a word of nonsense, I'll give you to it. ”
Cooperate with his master, Xiaopang "whined" at the depraved barbarian, but instead he was cute.
“...... Our boss is Lord Visin, there are six of them, and Dontema refuses to fall, so we join forces to kill him. There are two Assassins, a Paladin, an Amazon, and my boss. Lord Weixin has broken through to the master realm, even you can't fight him, listen to me, do it with us, otherwise you will die, and you can only be buried in this Dacrim City. ”
After hearing these words, Shi Yinghu, who bent down and carried the little fat, slowly got up, put the little fat in his arms and touched it: "Don't eat it, if you eat this kind of thing, it will make you have stomach trouble." ”
"I've said everything I need to say, and you let me go. ”
"Oh...... You didn't remind me that I forgot about you. With a kick, Shi Yinghu didn't seem to use much force, but the neck of the fallen barbarian was kicked off at once, and his head turned at an abnormal angle, but it slammed to the ground.
"Kill the Dark Fallen/Demon Worshipper Fallen Barbarian for 660.22 experience. ”
When he said this, his eyes subconsciously looked to the lower left, this sentence should have a certain amount of moisture, but that guy Wei Xin was a necromancer before he came in, and people like him would not sell themselves cheaply, and even if Wei Xin is not a legendary master, I'm afraid it's not too much worse. Touching the three-headed dog of hell in his arms, and then putting Xiaopang on the ground, Shi Yinghu took off all the equipment from the depraved barbarian.
This guy has also killed a lot of people, although there should be no storage equipment, but the equipment on his body is far better than the equipment on his body, Shi Yinghu is not a picky person, so he took off the leather armor on this guy and put it on himself.
Mid-tier Bear Witcher Set, Standard Equipment, Defense +85, Poison Resistance +10, Fire Resistance +40, Ice Resistance +10, React +10, Strength +20, Vitality +20, Requires 40 Strength. Although it is a leather suit, it has a defensive power that is not inferior to that of iron armor, and if it weren't for the sword master class bonus of steel bones and the skill of sword movement, it would not even be able to penetrate with the sharpness of "steel" alone.
The mid-level bear faction demon hunter suit has an amazing physical defense and attribute bonus, but it requires 40 points of strength to control it freely, which is destined to make normal low-level legal practitioners unable to wear this armor at all, but Shi Yinghu can increase his own strength by running the power of qi and blood, and after wearing it, the enchantment bonus of the equipment spreads, so there is no need to urge qi and blood violently, and wearing this armor is also conducive to his own strength training.
Stretching his five fingers, he felt his own blood and strength at the moment, although this time it was like the enchanted ring "Viper" that lacked the core of the snake faction witcher suit, and this time the bear faction witcher suit lacked the heavy armor-piercing sword "War Bear Heart", but it was enough for Shi Yinghu, and steel was far more powerful than War Bear Heart.
At this moment, there was a sound in the room behind Shi Yinghu, so he turned around and walked back to the burned abandoned house.
"Stop, who are you?"
"Akdis, don't be so nervous, he's the one who saved us and a member of the Sword and Shield Brotherhood. ”
"Nonsense, I've never met him. "At this moment, inside the abandoned house, the scarred female Assassin Akdis is holding a short knife, and she guards Kane's side like a wounded she-wolf, the journey is so difficult that it has almost completely destroyed her sanity, and she is too emotional to restrain herself.
"I'm a member of the Blazing Heart team that Aletta Venu has just recruited, and I know you don't believe me, but now you don't have anyone to trust, right? After all, even Vesin betrayed. With that, Shi Yinghu threw the three-headed dog of hell in the form of a little milk dog at Akdis, and the female assassin almost slashed it off, however, in the end, she still restrained herself and took the little fat dog in mid-air into her arms.
Watch as this little hairy creature sticks its tongue out at itself...... After a while, Akdis screamed, and then hugged the little fat and cried: "Sister Talia, Sister Shana, Captain Zorik...... They are all dead, everyone in the Nightingale Squad is dead, only I am alive, because I am the youngest, my sisters gave their lives to protect me alive, they asked me to send the Kane Sage out, but I know, I know, they died to protect me!"
The short knife in her hand fell to the ground with a bang, and this nineteen-year-old girl, who was still strong and fierce just now, completely collapsed at this moment, her sister who was gentle with herself, her sister who was fierce to herself, her sister who would make something for herself to eat, and her sister who would sleep with her.
Never again, never again.
“...... If it hurts, cry out loud, and no one will blame you. But after crying, she picks up the sword again and prepares for revenge, and the female warriors of the Amazon will always face their enemies only with swords, not with tears. Kane was so distressed that he gently hugged the assassin girl who was desperately trying to protect him, and several times, even she almost died.
Although they haven't been together for too long, the friendship between life and death, Kane has almost regarded Akdis as his granddaughter, and it is extremely distressing to see her completely collapse at this moment. As for the little fat at this moment, it was so dazed that it kept looking at Akdis, Kane, and its master, and didn't dare to say anything, dare not do anything, and didn't even dare to move.
The owner lets himself sell moe, but what is moe?
............
On the other side, the slaughtering feast of the fallen continues.
It's just that Wisin is cunning and vicious, but the other professions are not fools, and after the casualties have reached a certain level, they also realize that in addition to the Night Demon Tide, there are obviously more dangerous hidden murder opportunities in this sunken city.
Wei Xin and his team are indeed very powerful, yes, but killing all the professionals who encountered, and even making them unable to spread the news, is a bit too much, and slowly, the professionals of Dacrim City learned through their own channels that there are organized degenerates in the city, this fact.
The two sides attacked each other, encircled and suppressed, and counter-encircled and suppressed, if in terms of absolute strength, although Wei Xin was extremely powerful, there were many people on the side of the professional demon hunters, and they were not necessarily too inferior, but the most important thing was that the professional demon hunters could not determine who was the fallen and who was their own...... Then only everyone is on guard, after all, this kind of thing is depraved, it is not certain, friends, lovers and even relatives, these people who you think are unlikely to betray you, may be betrayed because of depravity.
In a hidden place, in the shadows of a largely well-preserved house, a woman with a broken arm and a mortal wound runs in disarray, not only from professional witchers, but even from monsters.
As a degenerate, it is just a "kind" recognized by the monster, and it will not be actively attacked, but if this "kind" is seriously injured, in blood, For many monsters like beasts, it is an instinctive reaction to eliminate the weaker kind to make the race stronger, and for the intelligent monsters, devouring the flesh and blood of a fallen can also make their own magic stronger, especially a seriously injured and non-threatening fallen.
This woman is the fallen assassin Alva who escaped from Shi Yinghu's sword, but her real name is actually Wendys, but is it just an assassin, and there are many times when she uses a fake name than when she uses her real name.
"Hehehe, Wendys, why are you so embarrassed? Such a gesture is really embarrassing to the master. Just as Wendys was about to enter the room, a woman's whispering voice was heard in the same shadows, as the darkness spread.
"Heda, I don't have time to argue with anyone right now, I want to see the captain now!"
"Hehe, that's not going to work. The master has asked me to stay inside so that no one disturbs him, so why do you think you are special?"
Wendis and Heddah are all assassins of the White Bone Squad, but after the fall of Wisin, he almost converted his entire team into his own slaves, except for one person who would rather die than obey, everyone else has become a dark degenerate, which is also the main reason why Wisin didn't dare to let that Kate Bryan join before, the pharmacist is not stupid, he has just "purified" the team, if he is allowed to join, it will increase the danger and trouble.
The degenerate, no matter how powerful, must be hidden in the shadows in the human world, otherwise, they will be surrounded and suppressed, and they will stick to it for a long time, and those who are reckless and imprudent will basically die, even people like Vesin will also have to bear huge psychological pressure.
After coming to Dacrim City, which is closer to the lower plane than the human world, Wisin breathed a sigh of relief, he no longer planned to go back, and after completing the task assigned to him by his employer behind him, he went directly to the lower plane. In a sense, the Fallen Barbarian didn't deceive Shi Yinghu, because the Lower Plane contained both the Endless Abyss and the Ninefold Purgatory and other vast regions, a place that was almost infinitely large.
The heavens of the entire universe are somewhat similar to a large pyramid structure, and the lowest average resources are the most scarce, which is the lower plane, although the abyss, purgatory, and even other regions also have a lot of resources, but an "average" cannot be compared with the middle plane or even the upper plane after all.
The upper plane, the middle plane, the lower plane, the lower plane is the largest, but the least resourced, the middle plane is in the middle of the pyramid, and then the narrowest but most resource-rich upper plane world.
However, it is extremely difficult to go from the middle plane to the upper plane, but it is quite easy to go from the middle plane to the lower plane, and after the development of many dimensional worlds to the end, they can't think about it, and the world falls and falls into the abyss.
Moreover, it is far easier to go from the lower plane to the middle plane than to the upper plane from the middle plane, and even easier than the middle plane to go to different middle planes, therefore, there are many powerful existences, simply take the initiative to go to the lower plane, and then transfer to other heavenly worlds through the lower plane, however, this is a very, very dangerous kind of smuggling behavior, although it may be very profitable, but it is a gamble with his life, and the real middle plane boss is usually unwilling to do such a business.
The fifth-order gods can be called big bosses in the middle plane, but they are easily unwilling to enter the abyss or hell, because there are also fifth-order, sixth-order, and even higher-order existences in the lower plane, and if they enter easily, they are likely to die unexplained.
The big guys of the fifth order or above the fifth plane of the middle plane are unwilling to go to the lower plane, but there is a lot of profit to be made between the lower plane and the middle plane, and this part of the gap is often controlled by the third-order legend and even the fourth-order demigod lifeform.
Although it is really dangerous to do business in the lower plane in the middle plane, the profit is too high, and it is worth risking the lives of many third-order and even fourth-order lifeforms for this, which is the cross-plane trade where the profits and risks are also very amazing.
Once a storm blows in the lower and middle planes, whether it is a legendary mage or a fourth-order demigod lifeform, how many there are, all of them are a dead word with the mantis arm as a car.
However, before this storm blows, after the business starts, there will always be a lot of second- and third-order ordinary professionals to fill it, after all, you can't do everything with a lifeform of the legendary demigod rank to do it yourself.
Therefore, even in a chaotic place like the Endless Abyss, there are some places of order, either controlled by powerful demons/demons, or controlled by legendary mages/demigod mages, in short, there is a certain order in these places.
Some second- and third-order professionals who have a way, a brain, and strength can also mix well in these places, although the lower plane is barren, but this barrenness refers to the plane on average, the lower plane as the underlying structure is much broader than the middle plane, there is no ten percent of the resources of the middle plane, eighty percent of the resources are also there, and now they are gathered together and traded across the upper and lower planes, it is completely conceivable that what an exaggerated resource throughput it is.
Many legends and demigods, knowing the danger, do the same thing with their heads, just because after working for a hundred years, the resources obtained are really likely to make them go further.
The big guy behind Visin has a Hell Tavern, it promised Visin to help him plunder the sage Kane, so that he could become a mercenary in the Hell Tavern as a free person, after Visin replaced the bloodline, he was only one step away from the legend, and he had a vote that could be called an elite subordinate, after being promoted to the legend, he would develop steadily in the Hell Tavern, and he would even have the possibility of impacting the fourth order in the future, such a temptation, he couldn't be moved, and he couldn't help it.
However, it is only one step and a half away from the legend, after all, it is not a legend, in the lower plane where the strong gather and the life is even more worthless, the strength of the legend must be added to the head to stand, and it is too difficult to rely on the mind and no strength.
Therefore, before Dacrim City completely sinks, Visin still has to do a big vote, try to kill as many professional witchers in this dimensional world as possible, collect souls, as long as there is enough soul currency, he can even hire a legend to be his bodyguard in the lower plane, and after he is promoted to a legend, he can basically stand in the lower plane with his own mind.
Objectively speaking, compared to this stormy dark world, the lower plane Hell Tavern is more suitable and conducive to the development of Wei Xin, and the knowledge, secrets, treasures, and even women (succubi/elves) circulating in the lower plane Hell Tavern are all incomparable to the dark world.
In the dark room, Visin was meditating in front of a purple-red soul stone, and the sound of wailing and roaring constantly came from that purple-red soul stone, which was the soul of the professional witcher who died in battle in Dacrim City during this time.
"It's no wonder that the lower planes use souls as currency, and just by meditating on it, I can feel the efficiency of meditation increase. At this time, Visin noticed that outside the room, there was a faint sound of quarrel, it was the voice of his personal guards Heda and Wendis, and that Visin had a relationship with both women, and even the conflict between them was deliberately provoked by him.
Within a team, if the team members are too united, it is not conducive to the captain's manipulation. Especially, when this captain wants to have the supreme authority to kill and kill.
