Chapter 33: The Deadly Shoal
"Oh~ it's like doing that in the steam room!"
In the dense jungle that seems to never end, everyone has been trekking for almost 4 hours, and the whining of Arthur Kid has almost never stopped along the way, but this may be the most fundamental reason why he hasn't fallen yet?!
It was almost at noon, when it was the most sweltering, and the team doctor Sean also took Arthur's complaint and said, "Yes, the temperature is too high now, and the humidity is too high, maybe we will die of heat stroke!" ”
Wiping the sweat from his forehead again, Arthur, who was almost about to collapse, complained again after hearing someone helping: "I don't know if I will die, but I will definitely be able to practice a tight fart||." Share! ”
Passing by Arthur's side, Ryan, who was walking at the back, kindly asked, "Do you need me to help you get it?" ”
"Isn't that nonsense? Here, take it! He handed Ryan the bag on his shoulder, and although he didn't know if the navigation equipment inside would still work properly after soaking in water, Arthur found that he was still in a much better mood!
"Are you alright, do you need me to help you with your bag?"
"Thanks, no." Rejecting Sean's kindness, Merry gritted his teeth and walked on, saying to Johnson as he approached him, "Hey, sorry, your ship sank. ”
"yes......" Johnson, who had been chopping weeds for hours, was also tired, wiped the sweat from his head and continued, "But it's rotten enough anyway." But when I get you back safely, I can go buy a new boat!" ”
In a residential building in an ordinary residential community in Jiangcheng City, Jiangbei Province, in the central part of China, our protagonist Zhou Yi lives alone in a two-bedroom apartment in this building.
I saw that he was half-lying on the sofa bed in the living room, in front of the computer hanging on the wall and using a 50-inch flat-screen digital TV as a monitor, concentrating on playing an online game called 'Dungeon'. From time to time, he gently said some game terms to the microphone on the coffee table, and in addition to the game sound in the computer speaker, there was a burst of light laughter like a mermaid song from time to time.
If someone sees this picture at this moment, then the most peculiar thing should be the fiery red golden python that is more than 2 meters long and as thick as a human arm, wrapped around Zhou Yi's body, right?
What's even more weird is that this fiery red golden python actually shows a spirituality unlike any other animal, and is looking at our protagonist Zhou Yi with gentle eyes!
Although the IQ of the average python is generally only in the single digits, this ...... If it weren't for the python's relatively simple facial expressions, we would even wonder if this golden python could express the expression that only humans have?
When Zhou Yizheng was playing hard, he definitely didn't expect at this moment that there was a special photon beam in the new photon belt that would reach the earth in the distant universe and only reach the earth in a year. Suddenly I wanted to break free from the shackles of the Fifth Age Photon Belt like a life, and flew out alone and at high speed.
Although it is invisible to the naked eye, its speed is increasing and even surpassing the light! There is no doubt that the energy carried by this photon beam is undoubtedly huge before space!
And the direction of its flight is calibrated for precise positioning of the rotation of the solar system and the rotation of the earth, and the result is actually the residential building where Zhou Yi is located!
Some time later, when it descended on the earth at several times the speed of light, because of the strong momentum it carried, the earth's magnetic field was attracted to it at the moment it passed through the atmosphere, and it produced a vision!
As long as you are in Jiangbei Province, people who look at the sky at this time will be amazed to appreciate the phenomenon of the Northern Lights, which may be the only time they have seen it with their own eyes in their lives. And definitely more fantastic and wonderful than what you can see near the Tropic of Cancer!
But it was a short-lived spectacle!
And in Zhou Yi's house, the first thing she noticed was the magical fiery red golden python, when she looked up at the ceiling with surprised eyes, and before she could make any reaction, she was hit by this powerful photon beam together with Zhou Yi!
Although it is still invisible to the naked eye. But the energy of this photon beam was already enveloped in the laptop operated by the Golden Python, Zhou Yi, and Zhou Yi in an instant......
"Where is this? What's wrong with me? ”
At this time, Zhou Yi's body seemed to be frozen on the bed as if it had stopped time, motionless and completely unconscious, but his soul was pulled into a strange space......
“3D-MAX? Or virtual reality? ”
Zhou Yi felt as if his consciousness had really entered a strange movie and became a passer-by at this moment, watching some pictures and events that surprised him. And the beginning of all this seems to have started when the human beings on Earth opened their minds, learned to walk upright, use tools, use bonfires, and formed the most primitive tribal civilization......
There seems to be an outline in Zhou Yi's consciousness, which he calls the First Age. Druids (Ancestral Witches) Natural Age!
At that time, human beings were still very primitive, although language was produced, words only had simple symbols, and human social life basically still relied on the worship of nature, and it was at this time that the photon belt fell on human beings for the first time.
When people don't realize it, the earth's natural world has slowly undergone earth-shaking changes, many animals and even plants have gradually acquired various magical abilities, some have become huge, some are infinitely powerful, and the strongest can even swallow clouds and spitt fog, control wind, fire, thunder and lightning, at this time the power of these creatures is undoubtedly far above other creatures, including humans.
These mutated organisms all have a common feature, that is, they all form energy cores in their bodies, and their function is to store photon energy obtained from the photon belt.
The primitive humans, who were already living a difficult life, were even worse at this time, but fortunately, over time, some humans actually slowly gained magical powers, although not as direct as other animals, but even more magical!
Some people can use their soul consciousness to communicate with mutated animals and plants, form a contract with them, and drive them to serve humans; Others can gain various magical abilities of mutated creatures by devouring their energy cores after killing them, and can even transform into powerful creatures that have been devoured to fight.
These two types of people are gradually regarded by ordinary humans as the patron saints of the tribe, and have different names in different civilizations, such as Eastern civilizations calling them witches, and Western civilizations calling them druids.
With the passage of time after the arrival of the photon belt, a few people have even become powerful enough to reach a level called 'Ancestral Witch'! One of them is that after devouring the energy cores of countless powerful creatures through non-stop fighting, they are also extremely powerful themselves, and they can transform into the true body of the ancestral witch that combines the characteristics of various divine beasts.
Although the other Ancestral Witch does not have such a powerful physical body, it has a strong mind that can communicate and drive the top divine beasts, such as the legendary Qilin, Phoenix, Vermilion Bird, Green Dragon, White Tiger, Xuanwu, etc.
Where there are people, there must be fighting! Thousands of years after the arrival of the photon belt, when these powerhouses were in great glory, under the pretext of different power systems, a war broke out to compete for more power and divine beast resources...... However, the war ended hastily almost before it officially began.
What people don't know is that because of the movement of the universe, the earth has left the photon belt of the first age without warning, and the powerhouses of various human civilizations and mutated animals and plants are like laptops that have suddenly been unplugged.
Because there was no official writing at this time, the powerhouses who gradually lost their strength recorded their nostalgia and desire for these magical powers on the 24 energy cores left by the top divine beasts through special symbols, because they found that the energy cores of the top divine beasts could not be destroyed by any method they knew!
They hope that their descendants will regain this power and supreme power. Nothing known can be broken!
They hope that their descendants will regain this power (to be continued......
