CH.230 Rainbow Spring (II)
For strange things, Donk has seen a lot, and he doesn't make a fuss anymore. When he saw this spring, his first thought was to keep it for himself, but he did not think that it would be a precious treasure. He handed Elizabeth the binoculars and told her about the springs, then took control of the ship to lower the black sails and rush towards the rainbow in one go.
When Elizabeth looked through the binoculars, her slender brow furrowed, and she said, "I seem to have some impression of this spring floating on the rainbow, and this should be related to some legend, let me think about it first......"
Donk wanted to use the investigative technique to find out the results, but when Elizabeth said that he understood the situation, he did not do so.
Elizabeth pondered for a while, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said with great joy: "I remembered! This is the Rainbow Fountain of the Fountain of Resurrection! She excitedly grabbed Donk's arms, "We've found the treasure, and we're going to make a fortune!" ”
Donk only felt that Elizabeth was smiling like a child, and he was infected, and laughed and said, "Resurrection Spring? What kind of treasure is that? Can it directly resurrect people? His heart trembled, if this is the effect, it is indeed a superb treasure!
The most painful thing in this world is the parting of life and death, if there is this kind of treasure that can bring people back to life, there will be many people who want it.
"You're right, the Fountain of Resurrection can indeed resurrect people, but it's not as light as you say." She looked at the spring in the distance with sparkling eyes, and if you look at it with the naked eye, it is only a small bright spot, "That is only one of the resurrection springs, there are seven complete resurrection springs, and only by collecting all seven springs can the dead be resurrected." And the one we found should be the Rainbow Spring, one of the seven resurrection springs. Because the spring of resurrection is also called the fountain of life, these seven springs are also called the seven fountains. ”
"It's really time for us to come across such a good treasure so easily!"
Elizabeth didn't answer, but lowered her head, knocked her fingers on the door of her head, and thought: "Let me think about it again, about the resurrection spring, I listened to my mother tell me at the bedside when I was a child, and the time is too long, I can't remember it clearly. ”
Donk looked at Elizabeth as she thought movingly, his eyes lingering on her face, not doing anything else, not urging.
Elizabeth clapped her hands and said happily: "I remember, the Rainbow Fountain is the fourth source, and the others are the Fountain of Wood, the Fountain of Fire, the Fountain of Body, and the Fountain of Death...... No, there are still two springs that I can't remember. These springs are different and are said to be ranked according to the difficulty of collecting, but the rainbow spring is the fourth source, and it is considered difficult to collect. ”
"Which spring is number one?"
"The number one is the easiest to collect, you have to ask which is the hardest to collect, right? The most difficult thing to collect is the Fountain of Death, and if you want to get that spring, you need to pass the test of nine deaths and one life, so it is called the Fountain of Death. For example, the Rainbow Fountain is to be found on the rainbow. The fountain of wood and the fountain of fire are to be found in the trees and flames. The Fountain of the Body is also quite difficult to find, because the water is born in someone's body. ”
"Sounds interesting, let's get this rainbow spring first, and then we can find other springs later." Donk didn't want to resurrect anyone, he just wanted to do it just for fun.
"No, you must not collect this thing, it's too dangerous." Elizabeth's face suddenly became serious, "My first reaction just now was that we had made a fortune, which means that we will sell it as soon as we find it." Regardless of which one of the resurrection springs can be sold at a staggering price in the market. From that point of view, this is a good thing. But if you try to collect the Resurrection Spring, you will definitely get angry. ”
"Hehe, I don't have much fire on me." Donk said disapprehantly.
Elizabeth's expression became more serious, and she grabbed Tang Ke's body and solemnly forced, "Promise me, you must not go to collect the Resurrection Spring." ”
"Why are you so serious?"
"Promise me!"
Tang Ke couldn't be stubborn, so he had to say perfunctorily: "Okay, listen to you, put away your expression of wanting to eat people." "He deliberately made a detour, didn't say yes, just said, 'Listen to you'.
Elizabeth returned to normal and continued to talk about the topic just now: "It's not that I scare you, the treasure of the Resurrection Fountain does come with terrible dangers. Think about it, how many people in the world want to resurrect the dead? But the Fountain of Resurrection can only resurrect one person. In this case, it will naturally lead to fierce competition, and most of the people involved in the competition are among the strongest in the world, and even the royal families of the five major empires are involved. In the battle for the Resurrection Spring several times in history, it has even led to wars, killing and injuring tens of thousands of people! To sacrifice the lives of so many people to do this in order to resurrect one person, it is not worth it. ”
Hearing this, Tang Ke put away the contempt he had just had, if he wanted to collect the Resurrection Spring, it would be equivalent to competing with many other people, and the enemy he faced would be the most powerful force and the most powerful master in the world! Thinking about it this way, this rainbow spring is not only not a treasure, but also a hot potato.
"But how come I haven't heard anyone talk about the fight for the Resurrection Fountain before? Also, the world is so big, it is a little too difficult to collect all seven springs. ”
"Listen to me tell you slowly."
Elizabeth went on to tell the story of the Resurrection Spring, and as she spoke, her dusty memories gradually came back, even the two springs that she had not remembered earlier.
Like other mythological stories, the story of the Resurrection Fountain took place a long, long time ago.
At that time, the gods had not abandoned their people, and they were in charge of all things with their own divine powers. Among them is a goddess of life, who can turn barren land into green fields in an instant, she can concoct all kinds of new life with her skillful hands, and she can also resurrect the dead.
However, in order to maintain the balance of the world, the goddess of life never easily resurrects the dead, and those who can get her divine power are only gods or heroes.
The general public was very unhappy about this and felt that it was too unfair. In those days, the gods would listen to their people, and in order to dispel this discontent, the goddess of life created the Fountain of Resurrection.
The goddess of life claims that whoever gathers the Fountain of Resurrection will be able to resurrect people, and that would be fair, because it is possible for anyone to receive the Fountain of Resurrection. This treasure came from this and has been passed down for thousands of years until today.
There is only one Fountain of Resurrection, but each conflict caused by it will cause many, many people to die, so that the balance between life and death will not be upset. And when people compete for the Resurrection Spring, it can give the Resurrection Spring new power and let this treasure be passed on from generation to generation. This process of contention also belongs to a disguised ritual.
The above is just a legend, and because there is a fault line in history, no one knows whether it is true or not. However, the effect of the Resurrection Fountain has been proven in modern times, and it does have the power to resurrect people.
There is a cycle of the appearance of the Resurrection Fountain, which occurs every 300 years, and at that time, the Resurrection Fountain will appear all over the world. If no one is able to gather the Resurrection Fountain within ten years, the Seven Sources will disappear. There have been several battles for the Resurrection Spring, but they have exceeded the time limit and ultimately failed.
The seven springs are the spring of the mountain, the spring of wood, the spring of the sea, the spring of the rainbow, the spring of the body, the spring of fire, and the spring of death.
The world is so vast, and the Resurrection Fountain is so secretive, if you look for it everywhere like a headless fly, it is impossible to collect them all, and even the king of a country has no hope. However, the Resurrection Fountain has another convenient special surname, and it is with this special surname that it is possible to collect all the seven sources.
As soon as a fountain of resurrection is found, the water will guide the owner to the next source. Therefore, as long as you have one spring, you can follow the vine and find other springs.
However, while this special surname is convenient, it is also risky, and even a trigger for conflict. It is conceivable that a person who owns a spring of resurrection, under the guidance of the spring, looks for another spring, and if that spring has already been preempted by someone else, he has to find a way to get it from the other person's hand, sometimes even using extreme measures.
In the search for the Resurrection Spring, you have to look for the next spring on the one hand, and on the other hand, you have to beware of other spring owners plotting against you. Every day is a terrible time, and even if I find a spring or two, I still feel that I am far from collecting it. The process is fraught with hardship, and a little carelessness can cost you a small life.
In the history of the battle for the Resurrection Spring, every time the one who can have the last laugh is either the world's top powerhouse or a huge state power, and there are no weak individuals who can successfully gather it.
This is the brutal battle for the Resurrection Spring, and a new round of the Resurrection Spring dispute has obviously been lifted, and it will not be long before it opens.
By the time Elizabeth had said this, the Black Pearl had stopped directly below the rainbow for a few moments.
Donk felt that this was like a story, and although there was no detailed plot in this story, it could arouse countless imaginations. He could imagine how brutal the battle for the Resurrection Spring would be! If you want to fight for the Resurrection Spring, you have to confront multiple forces, like a wheel war, through one battle after another, until the final winner appears. If two countries are in contention, a war between the two countries will break out!
Those who want to collect the Resurrection Fountain must have their own reasons for wanting to collect the Resurrection Fountain. Some people want to resurrect their loved ones, some want to resurrect their loved ones, and some want to resurrect their friends...... No matter who it is, there will be people who want to be resurrected. But in the end, only one person can succeed. If you are reborn through the Resurrection Spring, even if you are alive, you will feel heavy.
"Now you get the idea. Why don't I let you collect this cursed treasure, because it's too dangerous. Elizabeth grabbed Donk by the collar and said imposingly, "If you make me a widow, I won't spare you!" ”
Tang Ke smiled: "Don't worry, how dare I." ”
"Hmph, that's pretty much it." Elizabeth pursed her lips and showed her cute side again.
The two of them joked, and began to study the matter of collecting the Rainbow Spring. Because the rainbow is too high, even if you step on the lookout, there is still a big difference. The difference is difficult to make up for even if you jump. There is a limit to the collection of the Resurrection Fountain, and it must be filled in whole with a vessel, and if the Resurrection Fountain is divided into two halves, the Resurrection Fountain will automatically coalesce together.
Tang Ke was really embarrassed for a while, pacing back and forth in place, thinking about what to do. At this time, he remembered the convenience of the system, if he could [exchange] a large amount of wood, he could build a ladder high enough to climb on it and scoop the spring water away.
But now that the system is limited, it's useless to think about it.
He sighed and looked at the high Resurrection Fountain, with the inky black mast in his sight, and he was inspired by the Black Pearl's special abilities. The ship was able to extend its tentacles, not with much force, but enough to hold a vessel for water, such as a barrel or clay pot.
The only thing that can't be confirmed is the length of the tentacles that can stretch out.
He immediately set about experimenting, mindfully controlling the ship, and his order this time was a little more complicated, dispatching the tentacles of the entire deck, making them tangled together and then climbing. Elizabeth opened her mouth wide in surprise when she saw this.
In the process, there was nothing at first, but after the tentacles were wrapped around the thickness of his arm, he visibly felt a little strained. He gritted his teeth, forcing the tentacles to continue to extend. The tentacles were like a black python that climbed up the mast, reached the end, and finally reached into the sky.
Thirty yards, fifty yards, one hundred yards...... As the length of the tentacles increases, so does the burden on the ship, and so does the consumption of shadow power. There was a moan from within the tentacles that was on the verge of collapse, but it continued to elongate, and finally reached a height of one hundred and eighty yards, and stopped, which was already at the same level as the Rainbow Spring!
"Great! Ha ha! ”
Donk let out a cheer and mentally gave the order to revoke. The tentacles quickly retracted, as if a rubber band were contracting. The black tentacles retreated into place, scattered into several filaments, and slumped. He then ordered the Dumb Beasts to go to the warehouse to find a small wooden barrel to come over, and several Dumb Demonic Beasts ran down, and when they came back, they each held several wooden barrels, one of which was just the right size. He placed the barrel on the deck and repeated the process, causing the Black Pearl to suffer again, this time not only to stretch the tentacles, but also to drag up a barrel, making it even more difficult.
The tentacles wrapped around the waist of the barrel and swayed up again, like a telescopic ladder. Because of the extra barrel, this time it has not reached its previous height, and the tentacles are already in danger, reaching their limit, and they are starting to shake.
Tang Ke fiercely urged the tentacles to exert force, his heartbeat couldn't help but speed up, the heart of the magic ship was touched, and the shadow power inside was greatly stimulated, and the tentacles immediately strengthened a lot, rising higher and higher, and finally reached the specified height. He felt that the tentacles could not last long, so he did not delay, and immediately controlled the barrel to contain the Rainbow Spring.
The process went unexpectedly well, and after the barrel covered the rainbow spring, the resurrection spring lost its original gushing form and changed to a calm water form, and obediently stayed in the barrel.
The tentacles shortened, the barrel fell, and Tonk excitedly grabbed the barrel and looked inside.
At this moment, the system sound suddenly sounded.
"Ding! You have inspired the Collect Quest, where the goal is to collect all seven Sources of Life and combine them into a complete Resurrection Fountain, rewarding 45,000 Reward Points, 1 Epic Artifact, and 1 Rank 1 Magic Ship. ”
