Chapter 523: The Elves of the Lake
Although there were no monsters in the first half of the dungeon, after Xia Chiyu and others found this research diary, the first boss soon appeared in front of them. Vines crawled on the ground like snakes, tangled together and condensed into a tree-man creature more than three meters tall, and the name "Sky Golem" emerged from its head.
"Ahh Golem essence, could it be this guy......" Xia Chiyu pointed at the boss and said.
But by this time, the Celestial Golem had already begun to attack. It waved its left hand and threw out a seed, then pressed its right hand to the ground, and a vine spread from its right hand towards Xia Chiyu and the others. All the seeds that the vine touched on its path exploded, and the petals and grass clippings flew in all directions.
Both Awakening and Lin Qianxue were affected by this explosion, and saw that the mana of Awakening was instantly drained, while Lin Qianxue's physical strength was drained, and not only was it emptied, but it could not even be recovered at all.
"Will it be ......" Su Xing asked with some surprise, and called up the leaves of the World Tree from the package and chose to use it, so his mana immediately returned to its full state, but the maximum health was reduced by ten percent.
"Sure enough......" woke up suddenly, then turned to Xia Chiyu and scolded angrily: "If you dare to say the sentence 'I told you', try it, I will kill you, believe it or not!" ”
"I didn't say yes at all." Xia Chiyu said a little angrily, at this time, the Sky Golem suddenly pounced forward, and then its body directly merged into the ground of this forest, like a shark diving under the water, and began to crawl forward.
However, the advance of the Firmament Golem caused a significant bulge in the ground, so Xia Chiyu knew that the Firmament Golem was rapidly approaching him, and he immediately raised his hand to prop up the spiritual force field, and the Firmament Golem appeared from behind him, placing his right hand on the top of his head, and a net formed by a circle of vines quickly formed from the top of his head. Shroud him in.
Immediately, the vines began to shrink, but they were blocked by Xia Chiyu's spiritual force field.
However, the vines still continued to tighten, although they did not break through Xia Chiyu's spiritual force field, but Xia Chiyu's spiritual force field was about to disappear. Seeing this, he directly raised his hand and shouted: "The Seraphic Angel of the End!" ”
The golden circle of light spread, breaking the vines in this circle, and then Xia Chiyu turned to the Celestial Golem and shouted: "Eighty-eight stars of the zodiac shine all day......
The sky instantly darkened, and the stars shimmered, then condensed into a galaxy and poured down.
After all, this boss only has seventy-two levels. And Xia Chiyu is already level ninety and has the support of the best equipment in the whole body, this skill directly knocked out 20% of the BOSS's HP and made it enter a state of hard stun. Seeing this, a black flame ignited on his body, and then he entered the state of incarnating the demon king.
"Overlord Falls!" Awakening lowered his body, then turned into a black light and rose into the sky, and then fell from the top of the Sky Golem's head, his body was surrounded by black mist, turning into a hideous black demon skull, and slammed into the Sky Golem.
That's it. When one person picks up a skill, the Sky Golem is basically empty, and it is very easy for everyone to kill this boss smoothly. And as expected, the Golem Essence appeared in the drop list.
"This is the essence of the condensation of the chaotic energy and lifeforms of the World Tree", a line of description appeared below the golem essence. The chaotic energy of the World Tree Xia Chiyu can still understand that it should be the power contained in the World Tree, but how to combine it with this life form. It's puzzling.
However, another part of the broken research journal appears in the boss's drop list.
Xia Chiyu immediately chose to pick it up, and then clicked to check it.
In fact. It's a bit incoherent in terms of content, because this copy is not connected to the previous one. According to the normal order, they should now go to the abandoned dragon cave to continue the quest process first, and then come back here to continue this quest around level 70, and the plot is a coherent series.
The same goes for research diaries. Therefore, the several research diaries obtained on the top of the firmament were actually not connected with the previous research diaries, which looked a little inexplicable, but Xia Chiyu still decided to write them down first.
This research diary contains a very important piece of information, which is the origin of the "chaotic forces" contained in the World Tree. This chaotic power is actually the power of "heaven" and "earth".
The World Tree can be said to be "connecting heaven and earth", its complex root system goes deep into the ground, and its tall body goes straight into the clouds, so it can be said to condense the essence of heaven and earth, which is the origin of the chaotic power in the World Tree.
However, some parts of this diary are a little ambiguous and not very clear, only saying that Li Yi's previous inferences and research are correct. What exactly is the conclusion, but it is not mentioned. Obviously, you have to clear the previous quest line to find out what this conclusion is. Therefore, for the time being, I can only write down the contents of this diary for the time being.
"Tsk, it's really troublesome, can't you just say it directly?" Gu Qinyan hugged his arms and said dissatisfiedly.
"Don't complain." Yuxi frowned and reprimanded, Gu Qinyan pursed his lips and remained silent beside him.
"Chaos power...... Xia Chiyu held his chin and groaned.
"Did you think of anything?" Zhang Zinuo asked with a smile, Xia Chiyu nodded and said, "Well, the power of heaven and earth reminds me of something." Do you remember the second level of the 'Pit of the Abyss' that we found under the main city of the Dwarves? The unknown underworld, and the unknown bacteria that infect the dwarves. ”
"Oh!" Su woke up and suddenly realized, and hammered his right fist on his left hand, "You mean, the body of the demon race, that is, that kind of bacteria, is actually some unknown parasitic virus from that place?" ”
"Your guess is a bit big." Xia Chiyu glanced at him and said, "According to the step-by-step inference, I think it is very likely that the power of the 'earth' in this chaos comes from the pit of the abyss. Did you know that a tree's root system is actually much longer than a trunk? In this case, the roots of the World Tree would have spread to the depths of the Abyssal Pit. ”
Gu Qinyan nodded: "In this way, it can basically be inferred that the body of the demon clan is indeed from the abyss pit. ”
"That's right." Xia Chiyu grinned, "But I don't know exactly how it came about, it may be that some unknown bacteria or viruses from the Abyss Pit were transmitted to this world along the World Tree." There's no rush at this point, and when we continue to follow the copy process in order, we can naturally understand it. ”
"Then, where does the power of 'heaven' come from?" Lin Qianxue asked curiously. Xia Chiyu smiled mysteriously: "About this." In fact, I've been thinking for a long time, maybe the 'Ladder of Heaven' of the Protoss is not so simple as just a symbol, and it may really be related to the power of the so-called 'Heaven'. Specifically...... Only then will we know. ”
The quest process continues, but after that they no longer need to rely on the plant's rings to determine their direction in the same way they used to. After the Golem was killed, the vegetation on the top of the firmament was significantly weakened, and some obvious paths began to appear. Moreover, the surrounding forests also become sparse at this time.
Through the gaps between the trees, they could already faintly see the faint light of the lake in front of them. At this higher altitude, the sky is not as blue as expected. It's a dark blue that looks like it's getting dark. This was because the air was thin so there wasn't enough air to refract sunlight, so he was pretty sure that the flickering light ahead was the lake.
Before they entered the book, they could clearly see the lake in the heart of the forest, but after entering the dungeon, a large amount of vegetation and vines blocked their view.
It's much easier to follow the route, but all kinds of monsters start to appear along the way.
Although these monsters have different types, they also have the attributes of divinity and demonism, and the divinity and demonic nature have been so strong that they completely cover their original biological species. For example, a strange bird they encountered was actually no longer like a bird under the influence of divinity. And it looks like some kind of white mechanical bird, surrounded by an angel's circle of light.
However, the difficulty of the dungeon was still relatively easy for Xia Chiyu and the four of them, and soon they encountered the second boss. "Light and dark twins". Judging from the appearance, these two bosses seem to have human-shaped pangolins, wearing thick armor and leaning on their backs. Emerge from under the ground in front of them, blocking their way.
These two bosses have a light attribute and a dark attribute, one divine and one demonic. Skills are more troublesome, and light-attribute bosses can attack with light-attribute attacks and apply buff-type skills at the same time, including healing; The dark attribute boss can attack with the dark attribute and at the same time release a curse on the player, weaken the player's attributes, and can also use the dark attribute fire attack to restore health.
Their skills can also be combined to turn them into chaos attacks. In fact, light and dark attacks are already attacks that ignore defense, because there is no light resistance and dark resistance. However, it will be reduced by certain abilities of the player, such as Lacey's active field skill, the King of the Sun, which will force a 50% reduction in all damage when activated.
Chaos attacks, on the other hand, ignore any damage reduction and deal full damage.
However, Xia Chiyu's four people have a level crushing, and their skills are not bad, and the monster AI is also below level seventy-five, so the difficulty of killing is not very high. Moreover, although the skills of these two bosses are very troublesome, their health is shared, so as long as they attack two bosses at the same time with group attack skills, it is equivalent to double the damage to them.
After killing this boss, they also found a research diary from the boss's drop, which was Li Yi's research on the two bosses. However, according to the research data, when Li Yi came here, these two bosses were still two "little guys", they were a pair of twins, but Li Yi launched an "experiment" on them.
After killing this boss, they have come to the lake at the top of the firmament.
The blue and clear water of the lake is condensed in the central area of the top of the sky, where you can see some schools of fish swaying gently, and along the surface of the lake, you can see a small island in the center.
This small island in the center is only about 20 square meters in size, and there is only one tree on it.
"Isn't there a final boss in this place?" Lacey looked around curiously.
"Don't worry, the final boss must be on that island." Xia Chiyu said, raised his hand to summon the Gale Eagle, and then jumped up, preparing to fly over the lake and head to the small island in the center of the lake.
However, something strange happened, at the moment when Xia Chiyu flew to the lake, the waves on the lake suddenly trembled and formed a hideous grimace, and then the lake surged up, engulfing Xia Chiyu in an instant.
Xia Chiyu only felt as if he was being pulled by the lake and sank to the bottom of the lake, the cold and suffocating feeling made him panic, but soon, a person pulled him up from under the water by the arm.
"What are you doing? How can you not climb up with such shallow water? Gu Qinyan frowned and let go of Xia Chiyu's arm.
"There's something wrong with this lake...... Xia Chiyu wiped the water on his face and said, "I feel like I'm being pulled down......"
"Looks like you need a specific item to get to that island." Su Xing nodded and said, and then the lake gradually calmed down, and a gentle wave slowly spread from the central island, and then a figure appeared in front of them.
This is a level seventy-five boss monster named "Lake Elf". This is a human fish creature, with a fish tail and light blue skin, some fish scales can be faintly seen on the body, and the body is slender and enchanting, she looked at the people in front of her with a smile, sighed and said: "I haven't seen humans in this place for a long time." ”
As he spoke, the lake elf turned to the crowd at the scene and said with a smile: "I want to eat the Chaos Fruit, but I ......"
The lake elf's emerald eyes rolled as he stared at the tree on the central island: "However, I can't pick the Chaos Fruit from that tree. Well, would you like to help me pick a Chaos Fruit? I can send you to the island, you give me the Chaos Fruit, and I will help you strengthen your weapons, the weapons that the lake elves themselves have strengthened. ”
Speaking of this, the human face of the lake elf turned into a terrible fish face like a piranha, and hissed, "But if you can't give me the Chaos Fruit, I will sink you to the bottom of the lake and become the fertilizer of the Chaos Fruit......"
After speaking, the lake elf smiled sweetly and asked, "How is it?" ”
"I think that refusing or failing to collect fruits is a battle, and if you successfully collect fruits, you can avoid boss battles and get rewards directly." Xia Chiyu smiled proudly, "I told you a long time ago that these materials must be useful. ”
Reis, Su Xing, and Gu Qinyan all complained in unison: "Oh God, he still said this! "I knew he was going to find a chance to say it." "I hate that!" (To be continued.) )
