Chapter 206: The Age of Mercury (Subscription Requested)
- Guess 3: Will mercury lose its effect one day?
This last guess is specially marked with a red pen.
Wu Hao looked at it and frowned.
If the first guess is true, in ancient times, there were ghost riders who suppressed ghosts. And use bronze, or copper sulfate or something, anyway, copper mines to suppress ghosts.
Even more ancient times, gold and silver were used to suppress ghosts.
Then the suppression of ghosts and monsters can be divided by relying on the historical process of human beings and the different substances used.
respectively
The Golden Age – Ancient Times
Silver Age – Antiquity
Bronze Age – Early Antiquity
And the current one
The Mercury Age – Modern
Of course, the time sorting is only carried out by Wu Hao himself, and it is likely that silver is still in front of gold, but this sorting is more logical.
"These ghosts must be using some methods to gradually make these substances that suppress them lose their effect little by little. Or for other reasons, the previous suppressive substance has no effect, and the new suppressive sealing ability is transferred to other substances. ”
"Four eras! Gold, silver, bronze, mercury! Even more recently, there have been other substances that suppress seals. ”
"Interesting, so interesting."
"How the hell did these ghosts do it, they could actually make the substance that suppressed the seal invalid, or transferred."
"The newborn goblin will only react slightly to the substance of the previous suppression seal, and then it will be fine. It's like the human body has developed antibodies to the previous virus, and even if the virus re-enters, it won't help. ”
"What the hell is going on?"
The more Wu Hao thought about it, the more frightened he became.
The substance of the suppression seal fails in rotation, and the properties of the suppression seal are transferred.
Interesting phenomenon, isn't it?
He also understood that, in the same era, the substance of the second suppression seal had never been heard.
At least in the current mercury age, there is only one kind of suppressive sealing substance discovered by human beings.
In this way, is it possible to think about it extensively, what suppresses the sealing ghosts is not mercury itself, but some kind of rule, or characteristic contained in this substance?
And this kind of rule, or feature, can be transferred!
Circulating between different substances.
Thinking of these, Wu Hao suddenly thought of the grotesqueness of the world that stopped at a moment's notice.
The grotesqueness to which he belongs, like the most perfect ghost, transfers the characteristics of suppressing the seal to himself.
If you don't choose to force it down, then you can only obey the grotesque laws of behavior, activity rules, etc., and then suppress the seal in a way that conforms to these laws.
This is very popular in grotesque games.
called
- Anti-fit seal!
"Grotesque, it's completely the ghost who suppressed the seal and conceived it in his body."
"Is it .....?"
Wu Hao thought of the runes that represented the fundamental nature of the grotesque, as well as the polluting properties of the runes, and looked at the regular fluid of the ghosts.
If, he just said if!
What if he transferred the seal-suppressing properties contained in mercury to his projection body and mixed it with regular fluids?
Maybe......
It's just that what exactly are the properties stored in these suppressed sealed substances? How to seize it, or how to do it, Wu Hao or the second monk is at a loss.
Even all this is just his speculation, and it may just be a change in the rules of heaven and earth.
"Forget it, don't think about it so much...... Let's eat the small dessert in front of me first. ”
Wu Hao felt that his saliva was about to flow out, if there was a mouth on his ghost paws.
Reaching out and tapping lightly on the seal's dead mercury portal.
Bang bang bang~
After three sounds
The portal suddenly opened
A majestic ghost energy rushed to the face.
This ghost energy is mixed with a strong sour smell and a pungent smell of metal.
"Has the power spread out so much?"
"To be honest, I absolutely don't believe that those high-level leaders of the Ghost Rider Alliance don't know that these ghost powers are beginning to spread."
"It must be with some idea, so I let it go."
"It's just that you're definitely playing with fire. Gambling with the lives of all mankind. Mercury is gradually losing its sealing and suppressive effect on ghosts, but it chooses to turn a blind eye. Let me guess what is it that is more attractive to you than the situation in front of you? ”
"The latest big event is the wedding feast! Could the so-called correct timing be ......?"
Thinking in his heart, Wu Hao stepped into the sealing room, and in the extremely dark room, a clattering chewing sound sounded after a while.
The sound spread far and wide in the darkness, and countless strange creatures, after hearing this sound again, couldn't help but shudder, and quickly ran away in the direction away from the sound.
The ghost energy that permeated the vicinity of the prokaryophage seal house gradually dissipated.
Eventually lost a trace completely.
Everything plunged into deeper darkness.
......
The other side
Li Ang and his party escaped the strange regional phenomenon caused by the power of the time ghost, and finally arrived at the seal house of the ancient knocking ghost.
The Knocker's Seal House is very different from other Seal Houses, there is no so-called house here, and there is no coffin box.
There is only a pit more than ten meters deep, and the pit is covered with silvery-white liquid mercury, which ripples with a psychedelic luster and looks very beautiful.
A total of four huge chains made of mercury as the main material are deeply embedded in the liquid mercury, and it is impossible to see the specific appearance of the end.
"It's ...... Where the old knockers were held? ”
Li Ang, Ikko Ogura, Li Dongxing, and others all showed surprised eyes.
"That's right!"
"This is it!"
Prit nodded.
"You have to understand that the ancient knockers are such special ghosts, and they need to be imprisoned with some special techniques. Especially this ancient knocker, because of the rule of knocking, it is very difficult to imprison it like other ghosts. ”
"His power, after it naturally emanates, will randomly knock on the door around him, and as long as there is something around that conforms to the concept of the door, he will be knocked on."
"And the force generated by the knock will have an impact on the seal, it may not matter in a short time, but after a long time, it will cause the suppression of the seal to fail."
Plitt explained as he instructed his subordinates to begin to choose the handover knocker.
They began to grasp the chains, pulling them outward little by little, and eventually, a sphere about the size of a fist wrapped in a solid mass of mercury was half-floated in the mercury.
"This ...... Is that the knocker? ”
Leon opened his mouth, looked at the new human-like knocker he had captured, and then looked at the size of the sphere.
For a while, I couldn't accept it.
No matter how he thought about it, he didn't expect it to be like this.
It even made him suspicious, wondering if the Ghost Riders Alliance was deceiving him?
"Of course, this is the old knocker. I have nothing to do, why would I lie to you. ”
"That's why I'm telling you that this ancient knocker is very special, and when he caught it, he sacrificed a lot of people."
"Don't look at it, it's just a B-class ghost at the pinnacle, but it's no less weird than those A-class ghosts that only circulate in circles and no one has ever seen them."
Plitt explained, then crouched down, taking a closer look at the orbs in the mercury.
"It's so special, so special that we all need to design this huge mercury pit, as well as the orb of mercury, to suppress and seal it. Eliminate the concept of all doors. ”
"To be honest, if it weren't for the adults above to exchange with you. I would never agree to exchange it. ”
"You don't even know how special it is. It's a pity that the gang of ...... above"
Plitt said in a deep voice, looking very dissatisfied with the question of the knocker exchange.
"It's up to you and me. Of course, the new knocker wasn't bad. Its peculiarity is even higher than that of this ancient knocker. With summoning properties, the combination of living corpses and ghosts, it is suspected that it retains a little human intelligence, and it can knock on the door out of thin air, breaking through the concept of the door to a certain extent. ”
"Even when I caught it, it had already established a plausible ghost realm, and even if I left there, that interval did not collapse, the fog spread, and now it has completely turned into an inaccessible forbidden land."
Li Ang spread his hands and said.
"Impossible!"
"How is it possible for a goblin with so many characteristics...... Besides, if it's a ghost domain, you've already suppressed it, and it can't still exist in the world! The ghost realm relies on ghosts and ghosts to exist. Without their support, the place would have collapsed in an instant. ”
Plitt vetoed.
"Don't you think I know?"
"But that's exactly what happened!"
"Anyway, the mist interval that is suspected to be a ghost domain has indeed not collapsed. That's why I said this goblin is very special. ”
Leon pursed his lips.
How could he not know?
It was because I knew that after suppressing the ghosts, I was very surprised to find that the misty area still existed and did not collapse.
It was only later that at the urging of Li Dongxing and others, so as not to cause extraneous branches, he left.
Now that I think about it, I still have a lot of doubts.
There are a lot of puzzles.
"Wait, you said this goblin has a summoning trait?"
Pulit frowned suddenly.
"yes, what's wrong?"
Ignored Li Ang's rhetorical question.
"You also told me that when you came out of that foggy area, you felt like you were being targeted. And now you're telling me that the foggy area based on this knocker hasn't dissipated with its suppressive seal! ”
"So, haven't you thought that the establishment of the Misty Region is likely to be another ghost?"
Plitt's last words were shouted out almost word for word.
A creepy horror suddenly hit everyone's hearts.
"Impossible!"
"Li Dongxing, he told me at the beginning, there are only ...... there"
"Wait, what about the others?"
Li Ang was shocked.
Only then did everyone realize that Li Dongxing, who had been silent behind them, where was he still there!
And with him gone, and that Hunt!
I don't know when, it's all gone!
......
