Chapter 170: A Plan That Gradually Took Shape
In the early hours of the morning, Zhu Jue left the hotel arranged by Fisher alone, still holding the religious trivia guide in his hand, and braved the light rain that fell at some point to return to Temple Street.
No matter how busy the streets and alleys are, there is always a time for rest, and the same is true for Temple Street.
What's more, it is not a real commercial street, it can only be said to be a deformed street.
After 12 o'clock, the believers and tourists gradually dispersed, and when the stalls were closed and the lights were closed, this street was a lot more garbage scattered on the street than the other streets of the No. 27 community, waiting for the cleaning robots to deal with it.
Zhu Jueda's special return at night was naturally not to hang out and eat, but to find a temple with a shabby faΓ§ade because the holographic projection was turned off according to his previous memory.
Since it is a temple street, of course, there are places for people to worship, but these temples are not temples with monks practicing in the impression of ordinary people, but more like a commercial place.
This is what Zhu Jue just asked Gattuso to learn.
Without touching the chain on the door, he took a few steps to the side, jumped up and climbed over the wall, and landed in the humble courtyard, where he was faced with a copper furnace without a lid filled with incense sticks, and the ashes of the incense that had not been completely extinguished raised wisps of smoke, surrounded by several rows of candle stands, the remaining candles on the top were cleaned up, and only the thick dark red wax oil piled up around the iron skewers proved the incense here.
Opening his senses, he made sure that there were no outsiders in the temple, and walked quickly through the courtyard to the front of the temple, the door was unlocked, and it opened as soon as he pushed it, because there was nothing of value here except for the idol of the god to be worshipped.
"A few people, borrow precious land for use, I also want to save people...... If you don't speak, then you say yes. β
While pulling out the materials from the space ring, he bowed his hand to the statues around him or sitting on a high platform or holding utensils.
After taking out all the materials and placing them in the center of the lobby, Zhu Jue turned around and half-covered the door, leaving a gap in half of his body for the light source outside to penetrate in, so that he could carve the magic circle later.
The sound of rain outside the hall is heard here very clearly, and the rain that has slipped down the edge of the eaves is like a string of beads, dripping on the floor.
Draw a circle and chant a spell exclusive to the circle.
A few seconds later, a large and strange figure emerged from the center of the circle, the barrel-like body slowly squirming, the translucent membrane wings on both sides spreading, swaying with the wind blowing in from outside the hall, and the tentacles stretched out from time to time skimming over the surface of the statue painted with oil paint.
Zhu Jue looked at this scene, and couldn't help but think that if there were really gods in this world, I don't know if it could beat the "spirit" in front of him hundreds of millions of years ago?
"I received your message, have you got the result?"
It had only been a day since the last time they met, and the mark left by the ancient man on Zhu Jue's body suddenly changed, which was why he had come here to contact the former.
"The crystal is finished...... Over to you. β
A tentacle rolled lightly, took out a spar shining with purple light from the void, and sent it to Zhu Jue, which was just the basis for another cooperation between the two sides.
Ancients Crystal!
Raising his hand to take this special crystal, the cold touch made Zhu Jue even think that he was touching a piece of cold ice...... No, the temperature of this hedron was even lower, and it was barely able to hold it in his hand until a layer of spiritual energy was condensed in his palm.
Admiring the lines of energy circulating within the hedron, Zhu Jue's mind couldn't help but recall the discussion about the plan between the two ancient wisdom races late last night.
There is no doubt that the key to the plan to completely destroy the Ouroboros is Gadamon.
If Zhu Jue wants to grasp the initiative of this game with the existing resources and intelligence, he can only and must start with it.
However, the plan to kill Mi Ge and then destroy Gadamon has an unavoidable flaw, that is, killing Mi Ge means that Gadamon is completely out of control, plus Zhu Jue does not have the possibility of killing Gadamon alone, once Gadamon is out of Mi Go's control, let alone destroying it, it is questionable whether Zhu Jue can protect himself after it completely erupts.
Not to mention that Zhu Jue can barely resist Gadamon's spiritual erosion now because of his spiritual power, and at that time, even if Gadamon has no intention of killing Zhu Jue, the latter will be unconsciously affected by it because of the connection between himself and Gadamon.
The final result is needless to say.
Because of this, in order to plan successfully, Zhu Jue must master a method to eliminate Gadamon in a state of loss of control no matter what, and all his actions must be based on this premise, otherwise all his efforts will only be in vain in the end.
Zhu Jue was undoubtedly lucky, although the Great Race made it clear that they could not destroy Gadamon, the Ancient Ones, who also had terrifying attainments in creation, did not immediately express their powerlessness after hearing his thoughts, and they were willing to try!
Of course, this is just an attempt, the ancients can't guarantee that their method will definitely succeed, just like promising Zhu Jue to make the Geldamon Seed Body Elixir, anyway, it is Zhu Jue who pays everything to fight, all they have to do is to provide technical support, if they succeed, they will be able to explore Mi Go's peak technology, in case the result is a failure, no matter how crazy Gadamon is, it is impossible for him to travel through hundreds of millions of years of time and space to affect them.
After all, Zhu Jue was part of their experimental plan, and in fact it was a big reason why the former preferred to communicate with the great races among the two ancient intelligent races.
It's just that at this point, Zhu Jue has long had no bargaining capital.
The dead knot between himself and Gadamon and the "Zero" organization would not allow him to retreat at this time.
This time, there must be a winner!
"You said that you might be able to take over Gadamon from Mi Go, this crystal should be the key item, how should I use it?"
Playing with the crystal of the ancient, Zhu Jue looked at the ancient, the previous discussion was only over after a "qualification test", because Zhu Jue was extremely tired after the test, and it became a luxury to continue talking, but he barely knew a little bit of information from the ancient one.
Now he was going to ask the Ancients for a detailed plan of action.
"Your soul, with the power of Gadamon, a special soul...... To withstand it to a certain extent, to resist its erosion, you have passed the test and can fuse the crystal and carry it into Gadamon...... This is the best crystal we have preserved, it carries a huge amount of energy, you must first absorb the energy, it will be strengthened in a short period of time, and rely on the energy to dry up it to gather the power of Gadamon to create the core of Gadamon, through this method to control Gadamon, and then use this power to destroy it....."
The voice of the ancient man sounded directly in Zhu Jue's mind, so even if there were many pauses in the middle and the noisy sound of rain outside, Zhu Jue could still hear it very clearly.
β......β
Unspeakable silence.
Zhu Jue thought that he would have to talk for a long time, but the ancient man came up and gave a method that sounded quite simple in a few words.
It's limited to what it sounds like.
I subconsciously wanted to ask for some operational details, but I didn't know where to start for a while, because Zhu Jue knew very well that this was a plan that had never had a precedent in itself, and the ancients not only couldn't provide a reference, but even what they could give was only a vague plan that sounded feasible.
If this plan is compared to a recipe, the final dish is determined, and the ancients may be able to tell Zhu Jue when to put oil in the hot pan, when to make small ingredients, and what seasonings to need in the production process, as for how much seasoning to put and how to increase or decrease with the change of the main ingredient.
To put it simply, the Ancients had just put together a few possible actions to make Zhu Jue's plan to destroy Gadamon have a certain success rate, but even they couldn't describe the details of it.
Now the crystal in Zhu Jue's hand is already the greatest help that the ancient can give.
After the ancients finished describing the plan it had given, their figures gradually faded away, and when Zhu Jue really began to carry out the plan, they would naturally be able to perceive it in the white space.
Zhu Jue didn't stop the ancient one from leaving, and he also knew in his heart that even if he got to the bottom of it, he might not be able to get too much information from the ancient one.
Aside from anything else, the Ancients only used him as a test subject.
No one talks to a caged guinea pig about their experiment!
It's just that he can't figure it out on his own, and Zhu Jue doesn't think that he can achieve his goal with such a vague plan.
Anyway, the ancient didn't say that the transaction between them couldn't be passed on, so Zhu Jue was ready to discuss it with another "friend".
Either way, you can learn more.
Erase the circle that connects the ancients and draw another circle, and in a short time, Ivanka, the transformation of the great race, appears from it.
Glancing at the surrounding environment, his gaze lingered on the statue for a moment, and then turned to Zhu Jue.
"Control the crystal of Shogues...... Looks like the Ancients have a plan?"
The Great Race was now very interested in Gadamon's matter, and when he noticed what Zhu Jue was holding, he immediately realized that he should have had contact with the Ancient One.
Zhu Jue didn't hide it either, and while the memory in his mind had not faded, he directly repeated what the ancient man had just said from beginning to end.
This can be said to be Zhu Jue's helpless move.
The technology mastered by the ancient intelligent race was beyond his comprehension as a person who could not even master modern technology, and he could only rely on other ancient intelligent races to help him analyze it.
The Great Race is undoubtedly the first choice.
"Do you think it's possible to succeed?"
Seeing that the Great Race was deep in thought, Zhu Jue waited beside him for a while, but he still couldn't hold back and asked.
"Yes. β
Affirmative answer, but before Zhu Jue's face showed joy, the Great Race added,
"But the chances of success are extremely low!"
