Chapter 517: Down (1)

"I want to think about it," the index finger tapped his pink lip flap, and Jade Rabbit fell into memory, "When I was a demon god, I also heard rumors that there was a guy who shouted, 'Kill Yugudorahir, I am the World Tree', and then sent his head to the countryside in a daze, and a big battle with the World Tree Country, which was also a prominent World Tree at the time, and no one has known its whereabouts since then." I really didn't expect it to be sealed here. ”

"You mean, it's a 'tree'?"

"Yes, in a broad sense, it's really a tree. Nodding, the jade rabbit projected a plant that gave people a strange look, or rather, something that was not exactly a plant. With its straight trunk and dense foliage, it was lush and full of life, and it was almost impossible to tell from the appearance that it was actually a physical shell of a demon god. However, when she zoomed in, the delicate fleshy tentacles wrapped around the branches and the corrupt maggots lurking beneath the bark completely subverted this illusion.

"But rather than saying that it's a tree, I'm more inclined to say that it has lost a large part of its characteristics as a demon god after falling into the world of order, and it might be more appropriate to call it the Blood World Tree now. She casually snuffed out the projection and looked into the darkness below, "Actually, I'm quite skeptical that those two unlucky guys can still be completely separated from it, and this level of union is hard to say that it is not some kind of designed plan." ”

"But," Jade Rabbit smiled, "as long as we go down and do a survey, we'll know everything." ”

"Uh, are you sure you won't have a problem doing this?" Su Xing was a little worried, the location of this refuge world was too delicate, and if it triggered a chain reaction, it was very likely to cause that small space door to expand.

"Don't worry, don't worry," she said without any pressure, took out a small white book from her arms, wrote some ghost drawing talismans on it, tore it off, and stuffed it into the sachet that she pinched out with her tail hair, "Take this thing, it can simulate the external characteristics of me when I was a demon god, and it is easy to hide from these half-dead guys." ”

"Wait, count me in!" the round ball bounced out of the air, jumping and jumping, "I have a little relationship with them, so take me, maybe what's the use?"

Glancing at it meaningfully, Jade Rabbit shook his ears, "Even if what you said makes a little sense, I'll take you with me." ”

......

Only by going down into this darkness can we appreciate how deep it really is. It's just an ordinary hole, but under the influence of the power of the demon god, it has undergone changes that can be called 'magical'.

The first two kilometers of depth was not too exaggerated, that is, some demonic creatures living in the caves of the rock wall, at best, they were used as cannon fodder to cause some small problems for the people outside.

But once you go deeper, the surroundings become unimaginable. The flaming pillar of flame didn't seem to have much of an impact on the strange creatures that lived in the black mist, but rather the light and heat it provided created a violent, but real, ecological basis for these creatures.

It can be said that, in a sense, the meaning of the existence of the Great Flame Pillar here is equivalent to the sun above the earth's surface. Although Su Xing didn't think it was a good thing at all.

At least ten kilometers below the two kilometers of the dividing line, and in the depths of the caverns, there are no less than a hundred different groups of demonic creatures, which share a lot of the same characteristics in appearance as their counterparts on the surface, but are very different in terms of more essential social structure.

If the demonic creatures that are constantly invading the surface world can only be regarded as irrational beasts, then these monsters living below the dividing line show at least a sign of 'civilization' at the lowest level. Crude but basic organizational structures, primitive families and tribes, and even the recording of events by carving some unknown patterns into the rock faces.

"Look," Jade Rabbit reached out and shook the void, grabbing a thin air mass with a dark color, "This is their soul, it's incredible, right, even these creatures born in pollution still have a strong soul, this is simply the greatest mockery of the demon god." However, it also shows that the creature has a serious lack of control over these creatures, otherwise it would not have been possible to get out of control. ”

Su Xing narrowed his eyes, and there seemed to be a monster with horns faintly in the mist, kneeling on the ground, praying for something.

Pinch the soul, she looked around, "With such a large-scale change, that guy's injuries may be beyond my imagination." But it's better that way, so we don't have to be so cautious, and we can let go a little bit and do things that we didn't dare to do before. ”

Ten kilometers was only a few breaths of time for them, but even that was enough time for them to take a closer look at the vast majority of the distance. A spiral structure resembling a stone staircase clings to the base of the rock wall, extending into a deeper darkness. Amazingly, even though the flames of the Great Flame Pillar were not too far from the cave wall, the stone staircase was still shrouded in an inexplicable black mist. Beneath the flickering black mist, the stone staircase was littered with the bones of various creatures and the remnants of some man-made objects.

With a hook of his fingers, a helmet that had been tattered to the point where it was almost impossible to see its original appearance appeared in front of him, and with the brushing of the real magic power, it returned to its original state seven hundred years ago. It was a typical horned helmet, and its size was obviously not suitable for a human, at least a giant of more than three meters tall to be able to wear it. A monstrous oblique rift nearly split it in half, leaving an unidentified black-brown substance on the metal crack, perhaps a bloodstain on a weapon.

Jade Rabbit glanced at the helmet and couldn't help but pout, "Maybe it's something left by some heroic warrior from Old Man Odin's house." And only those guys in his house love this kind of flashy decoration. ”

Well, indeed, it looks majestic, but there is no trace of it being enchanted at all, and it is not made of super alloy, it is simply made of fine steel. To say that it is an ornament, there is no problem at all. However, Su Xing has his own opinion on the origin of this thing, maybe it was left behind by the guys who came down to die in waves when those fire-bearers were still there in the early years.

But now this thing is useless, at most it is used as a memorial, to commemorate the group of people who embarked on this endless road of death in order to continue their race.
