Chapter 257: The Key - The Land of Ragnarok
This is?
Ye Qi immediately asked the Shadow Knight in front of him with the power of the contract, and then got an answer that surprised him - under certain conditions, the Shadow Knight can make some of the Shadow Warriors who have reached a critical point evolve first.
Who are the Shadow Samurai who have reached the tipping point?
Ye Qi asked in his heart, and immediately, about a hundred shadow warriors walked out of the queue, just a slight glance, Ye Qi found the difference between these shadow warriors, in addition to the fluctuations of negative energy are clearer, there are also more detailed facial features on the face, not like ordinary shadow warriors, very blurry, people can't distinguish.
Prioritize the evolution of these Shadow Samurai into Shadow Minions!
Ye Qi gave an order to the Shadow Knight, who immediately knelt down on one knee to receive the order - this is similar to the practice of the real knight, it is obviously not the will of the Shadow Knight itself, it should be bound by a certain force of the contract, or simply instilled the knight's concept into it when it was merged.
This is not very complicated, especially when dealing with shadow minions who are only intelligent but not very high; Of course, if a normal human wants to accomplish such a practice, the price to pay is quite high; In addition to all kinds of rare materials, it is normal for oneself to suffer a certain amount of backlash.
Among the mystical knowledge given by the strange wolf, there is much for such a practice; However, except for beings like strange wolves, who are no longer different from ordinary people in nature, Ye Qi does not think that other people can complete such 'rituals' at will. Not to mention even the blame wolves themselves. There are also many restrictions.
"Tsk. O Shadow Knight! β
The voice of the strange wolf appeared in the bottom of Ye Qi's heart, and a tone of admiration that seemed very rare: "Hmm, how long has it been since I've seen such a guy?" Five hundred years? Or six hundred years? Or longer? β
"Come on, boy! The title of Lord of Shadows is not too far away for you! β
The strange wolf was very optimistic about Lu's tone, Ye Qi was not used to it, he was more accustomed to the other party's cynical tone, because then he knew it. Once this fellow of his contract speaks in such a tone, then there must be some schemeβalthough, most of the time, the other party always has a plot, but such a cover-up approach is really uncomfortable; Therefore, Ye Qi said it very directly.
"Lord of Shadows, it should be a lord, a king, or something, right? So, after the servant comes the knight, and what should be after the knight? There shouldn't be just knights and minions in a territory. And a shadow samurai resembling civilians, right? Ye Qi shrugged his shoulders as he said and said, "So." I can't be happier with your congratulations like this! β
"The most important thing for any success is to start, and now that you've completed the start and moved on to the next stage, of course I need to congratulate!" The strange wolf will not admit its mistakes calmly, but it knows what it means to accept what is good; Therefore, the topic was immediately changed: "This negative electrode field is very good!" β
"You want?"
Ye Qi asked with a chuckle - this was not an accident for him who had already guessed; In fact, Ye Qi also has certain ideas about this negative electrode field.
His [Praise of the Secondary Sun] was promoted from [Light Extraction], so [Extracting Darkness] could naturally get the corresponding promotion, and naturally he needed an environment similar to this, full of negative energy, in order to obtain the corresponding foundation for [Extracting Darkness] - as the strange wolf once said, continuous use is the basis for promotion, in this way, Ye Qi will not forget.
Although for [Extracting Darkness] and other specialties, Ye Qi also has a backup plan - the absorption of the power of faith.
However, it was very obvious that it would be necessary to go deep into the Sennuma District, not to mention whether he could find the right expertise in that vast environment, and the current war alone would make it impossible for him to leave; And this war will definitely not last for three or two days to end.
wasting such a long time is not Ye Qi's style, especially when he is in such an environment and does not affect him to do other things, it is simply a multiplicity; Why wouldn't Ye Qi do it?
Of course, all this depends on what kind of conditions his contract companion is asking for, and if it goes too far, he can only find another way out - the lich who wants to cooperate with him is undoubtedly a very good choice at such a time.
"Of course not!"
The strange wolf replied categorically, and even there was a little disdain in its tone: "Not to mention that this is only a half-finished product, even if it is a complete product, do you think it will be useful to me?" β
"Then you ......"
The strange wolf's statement made Ye Qi frown - he wouldn't doubt the strange wolf's statement, but he would doubt the strange wolf's approach; Sure enough, the next moment confirmed his guess.
"It's not useful to me, but it's rare for you, isn't it?" The strange wolf let out a burst of laughter and said slowly, "You need it to increase your strength against darkness, and at the same time, these shadow subordinates of yours also need a place where they can increase their strength......"
"What do you want?"
Ye Qi directly interrupted the strange wolf's words - Ye Qi was already familiar with this kind of profiteer's sales method; Don't say any disadvantages, just pick the good ones, and then invisibly raise the price, so that the guest bleeds, whether it is his personal experience or watching others experience, it is enough.
No, I need to review it repeatedly.
"Fragments of the Key to Doom!"
The strange wolf went straight to what he needed.
"Oh, the fragment of the Key of Doom ......"
Ye Qi touched his chin and groaned.
"With this negative realm, the fragments of the Key to Doom are nothing to you at all, right? Instead of running out of energy and putting it there, you might as well exchange something useful with me! Facing Ye Qi, who was groaning, the strange wolf couldn't help urging: "Don't think about analyzing the secrets. At your current level of alchemy. It's impossible to give you another hundred years! β
"Fragments of the Key to Doom. What is it for? β
Ye Qi asked.
"The key to the synthesis of doom, of course!"
The strange wolf replied.
"You know the Dao, I'm not asking about these, I want to know the true role of the key to the end of the Dao!"
Ye Qiyi frowned and reiterated, obviously, he was very dissatisfied with the fact that his contract companions always played such word games.
"There's a lot of interest at stake, if that's what you were told......
"You have to understand. Now the fragments of the Key of Doom are in my hands! β
Facing the strange wolf's embarrassed look, Ye Qi did not have the slightest soft-heartedness, he knew very well that this was just a little trick of the strange wolf - if he could use compassion to get more benefits, another profiteer would definitely be able to hug the customer's thigh and cry bitterly in the next second.
"You're banditism!"
The strange wolf became righteous and spoken.
"Xie Lu Xie, this is your teaching!"
Ye Qi's answer was lukewarm.
"Your behavior like this will be spurned by the gods!"
The strange wolf looks sacred, striving for the highest point in every sense.
"The witchers don't believe in the gods, and, after seeing you. I'm so disappointed in the so-called gods! β
Ye Qi's answer was still lukewarm. There was even a touch of ridicule, and after a pause, he sneered and said: "Moreover, in the cooperation with you, the gods and demons who are hunted by me are not one or two, if they really want to be spurned, I'm afraid that cursing me will make them even more happy, right?" β
"Yet, obviously, I am alive and well now, and they are all gone; So, I don't think there's anything terrible about their spitting? What's more, with the strength of that contract, you and I are one, and when you encounter absolute danger, aren't you afraid of death? β
"Are you venting your frustration on me?"
One sentence, which led to so many answers, the strange wolf couldn't help but ask.
"What do you say?"
Ye Qi asked rhetorically in the same way.
"Alright, alright! I admit my mistake...... Still, the deal goes on! β
After laughing a few times, the strange wolf brought the topic back, and after a deep sigh, he chose what he could say and informed his contractor: "The key to doom is a key to open the treasure chest of the gods!" Once you've collected six shards, you'll be able to enter the Land of Ragnarok and open the treasure chest left by the gods, Pandora! β
Pandora?!
Hearing this term, Ye Qi couldn't help frowningβhe thought of something that wasn't very good; Although it was just some mythological story in his hometown, similar names always made people feel very uncomfortable.
"If that's the case, why didn't you choose the name "Key of Doom" instead of calling it the treasure of the gods?" Ye Qi asked tentatively; And this time, the strange wolf did not hide it, and said very happily: "Because, it is the place where the gods are fighting, and if ordinary people enter, even if they participate, they can feel the feeling of the end of the world; Of course ......"
"Of course what?"
Ye Qi couldn't help but ask.
"Of course it's something we can say after we trade, and now, we need to make our trade!"
The strange wolf said with a strange smile.
"The treasure chest of the gods, it's a great thing when you hear it, if you exchange this so-called half-finished anode realm, do you think I'm stupid?" Ye Qi put his hands behind his back and continued: "I don't want the reputation of me doing such an idiot deal in the future!" β
"There are six fragments of the Key to Doom, only four of them are in your hand, and the whereabouts of the remaining two are unknown......"
The strange wolf, who knew what attention his contractor was paying attention to, immediately said that it wanted to use such an unknown to dispel the attention of its contractor, at least, to let itself get more.
"It is precisely because these four fragments are in my hands that I have more initiative; Without my four fragments, even if you find the remaining two, it won't make any sense; Or do you think you can enter the land of Ragnarok without this? So...... I need an extra share, how about I have seven and you three? β
After a pause, Ye Qi made an offer.
"You're seven and I'm three? Why don't you grab it! If it weren't for me. Even if you find all the shards of the Key to Doom. Will you fuse? β
In the face of such an offer. The strange wolf almost scolded the street, but it still maintained its only demeanor to negotiate with its contractor, of course, if it could, it very much wanted a thunderbolt to kill the other party, but unfortunately. If the other party dies, it will also have to be unlucky.
"Since you know the Dao, then there is no reason why beings like you do not know the Dao, although they don't know where the Dao is now; Unfortunately, though, I happened to know the whereabouts of one of them, and I thought it would be happy to work with me - but who gave us a contract? So, one more point for you, I'll be six, you'll be four. No more! β
Ye Qi said in a very generous tone.
"I still know the whereabouts of one of them!"
The strange wolf who answered like this obviously entered the role of bidding.
"If you can find the remaining two pieces and give me the complete anode field. We can actually split the account fifty-fifty! Ye Qi, who achieved the expected goal, immediately gave his bottom line.
"Deal!"
The strange wolf couldn't wait to complete the contract of the transaction, and then, it came back to its senses and shouted violently, "Cunning boy! β
"Just learning from you!"
Ye Qi shrugged.
"Congratulations, you're ready to graduate!"
The strange wolf replied very angrily.
"Before you graduate, you have to finish trading!"
Ye Qi reminded the other party not to forget what should not be forgotten.
"Hmph...... If you use the Key of Doom to enter the Land of Ragnarok, you will cause irreversible damage to the main material plane, which is the physical realm where you are located; So, if you use the Doomsday Key at will in the material world, the result will be self-evident - of course, the first to die is definitely the user! β
If the material world can't use it......
Well, the bridge on the other side!
Almost subconsciously, Ye Qi thought of that special place,ββ in the previous conversation with the Hart brothers, the bridge itself is a plane connected to the material world, and the bridge on the other side is not only connected to the material world, but also connected to many independent small planes and half-planes.
And undoubtedly, if you use the Key of Doom, those places are the most suitable; After all, St. . Brother De, the Blood Alliance Tower, Spring City, the Coffin of the Underworld and other powerful forces on the bridge on the other side have their own independent planes, and some small organizations can also obtain some half-planes as bases as long as they pay enough resources.
He could have chosen a more remote half-plane where he could use the Key of Doom.
According to the Hart brothers, no one will pay attention to those remote half-planes, and if I am careful, there will be no problem at all.
Thinking of this, Ye Qi couldn't help asking, "Then where is one of the remaining two fragments?" β
"On that little bat!"
"Little bats?"
Ye Qi was stunned for such a title, and then, a bad premonition rose in his heart.
"You don't mean Alcatel, do you?"
"That's right, it's that little bat!"
The strange wolf nodded very casually, but Ye Qi frowned - one of the seven strongest people in the world, the strength of him and the other party is not a little bit apart, and the difficulty of obtaining the fragments of the Key of Doom from the other party is definitely not low, and even, to be serious, it is quite difficult.
"It's just a small bat, it's a bit difficult to beat it with your strength, but with my words, it's very simple!" When the strange wolf said this, he looked high, but Ye Qi did not give the usual ridicule to this appearance, but said in surprise: "You are ready to attack it!" β
"Although it will consume some of the power that has been accumulated with great difficulty, it is still worth it for the fragments of the Key to Doom!" Speaking of this, the strange wolf subconsciously lowered his voice: "I doubt that this guy put my last statue in the land of the gods!" β
"Hmm...... Quite possibly! β
Ye Qi's right thumb and index finger rubbed the slight stubble back and forth on his chin, and after a while, he couldn't help but nod his head - the statue of the strange wolf, so far, there are still three that have not been found; Two of them have been determined to be in the treasure of the new king of the Huangsha District and the Inquisition of the Holy Forest District, although these two places are not easy places to visit, especially the latter, for him, it belongs to the place of nine deaths and one life, but he has also found the corresponding clues, but the last one has not even had clues.
According to the description of the strange wolf, its old opponent will definitely leave a back hand, and it is obvious that this last statue is the back hand left by its old opponent!
And what could be more appropriate than in the so-called Land of Ragnarok?
Not to mention anything else, just the Doomsday Key, which is also divided into six, is enough to be a double insurance! What's more, there was also the danger of the Land of the Gods itself, judging from the tone of his contract companion, it was definitely a more dangerous place than the Sacred Forest District, and there was no doubt that this was exactly what the opponent of his contract companion wanted!
Even if the monster wolf collects eight statues of himself, as long as one of them is not made, then the final victory is still obvious.
"This is your old rival, the back hand?"
Ye Qi couldn't help asking.
"It's normal for that insidious guy to go too far!"
When the old rival is mentioned, the wolf always has a deep contempt, and is obviously very unconvinced by his defeat; Of course, failure is failure, even if it is not convinced, the strange wolf will not make excuses for itself, it subconsciously staggered the topic: "It's time for us to clean up this negative field, that little wizard's patience is about to run out!" β
