Chapter 181: Luck
He was covered in the floodwater, his long black hair spread out in the water, and he was dressed in black......
Mo Chen was like a clump of aquatic plants or seaweed, drifting with the flow.
He drifted down in the direction of the impact of the current, picking up all the dead souls along the way, preparing to send them directly to his own underworld when the time came...... It's better than just dissipating.
There is no breath of the same kind, there is no fluctuation of divine power, perhaps it was washed away by the phenomenon of the tsunami.
Such a violent natural phenomenon is enough to wash away a lot of supernatural traces and cover up some unusual clues.
After all, if that kind of person just came over and took things and left, and didn't do anything here, then it was normal to leave no traces, and Mo Chen didn't expect the other party to leave clues with a big grin.
As for the people on Mo Chen's side......
In the face of such a terrible disaster, even a skilled magician can only say that it depends on luck. If they were alive, they should have been in the nearby settlements to help with the disaster, if not in those places......
I guess it's dead.
But it's not a big problem, each of them has a resurrection talisman on their bodies, or an improved version of Mo Chen after he became a god of the underworld, and the "resurrection point" is uniformly set in a safe place. For example, the resurrection point of Miss Crawford and her party is set in London, England-
On the altar of resurrection in the basement of Crawford Manor.
The resurrection point of those magicians is set up in the resurrection altar of their own magic association...... That is, compared to this Mexico, it is far above the Italian mainland.
If something really happens, I think they have now enjoyed the treatment of teleporting back to China directly, and appeared on their own territory.
Of course, it is best not to use it as much as possible, although Mo Chen has improved it with his own authority to grasp death, and developed versions such as 2.0 and 3.0 on the basis of the resurrection bone talisman, and finally finalized it in the current version 5.0.
Eliminated a lot of fatal hidden dangers in the past, such as being able to resurrect randomly nearby, falling into a coma and a large amount of overdraft consumption of life force after resurrection, and falling into a long period of weakness afterwards......
And so on and so forth, and so on and so forth.
Not only did Mo Chen's authority in the relevant fields play a role, but also the blood essence after refining the blood of the Dragon King, which was used as a pigment to carve mysterious symbols and make runes, which also made up for the shortcomings of the need to overdraft vitality.
However, nothing comes without a price, and the resurrection is even more so of nature. Life and death matter, and no one can break the rules.
Mo Chen can do it only because he is not a human being, and the rules of life and death happen to be one of the realms under his jurisdiction. However, the human soul always has an upper limit of strength, which is slowly consumed in the merciless years, and the process of resurrection from the dead is violently worn out in a short period of time.
Therefore, there is also a limit to the number of times, and no one can waste it...... Moreover, death and resurrection will lose a small part of the soul, although it is not directly torn, but it is also the price to be paid in the end.
And when it comes to the soul, it is naturally intangible things such as spiritual will, natural qualifications, etc.
Although saving one's life is a good thing, sacrificing talent and weakening one's qualifications, even if only a small part, is a huge price for many magicians...... Of course, they know that everything is possible only if they are alive.
But the truth is the truth, the sensibility is the sensibility, how many people would rather pay a lot of money to break the fortune and prevent disasters when their lives are at stake, but this does not affect their feelings about their money afterwards.
In addition, the impact of death is not without side effects and sequelae. The undead will become living corpses due to the loss of humanity, and how can normal people avoid side effects when they are resurrected from death with the help of props.
What's more, once you encounter an existence that also has a grasp of the realm of death, props like the resurrection talisman are no longer magical, and they may be useful if the other party is careless, but it is more likely to be restrained from the beginning.
It's like a sophisticated electronic device encountering an electromagnetic pulse, no matter how powerful it was, it is nothing more than a pile of scrap metal after that.
In view of the above reasons, Mo Chen implemented his previous idea very well, and in the exchange list he provided, the resurrection talisman was a very small number of rare items whose price was not constant and would increase in price as the number of exchanges increased.
Of course it's rare.,This kind of thing is gold quality in the game.,It's still a one-time thing-
Originally, there were technical conditions to reuse, but in order to prevent the people under his command from relying on this kind of cheating, he was finally vetoed by Mo Chen.
……
……
The height of the torrent has dropped considerably, and many buildings can already see half of the height, to put it more simply, that many buildings above the second floor are no longer submerged.
It's not like before, it's completely a sea of water, hell on earth, and at a glance, in addition to the mighty ocean, there are only a lot of drifting debris and the roofs of some relatively tall buildings.
In addition, only by diving under the water can you find traces of human civilization in the submerged towns.
Mo Chen walked from the water to the shore step by step, and shook his sleeves vigorously. He was drenched all over, and his hair and clothes were dripping uncontrollably.
Without any direction, he had been drifting purely casually, collecting thousands of souls along the way.
Of course, there are reasons why he is lazy and doesn't want to move, after all, as soon as he comes out, he is in the torrent, since he can go down the river with the help of the water, so why should he contribute himself?
What's more, this time he wants to use his luck to find his target......
To be sure, gods and spirits are all beings of good luck. Not to mention that the whole world revolves around them, but at least when they appeared, everything in the vicinity of the large area was basically developing in their direction.
For the world is constructed by the interweaving of the realms of laws and laws, which in turn are the source of the great power of the gods...... For example, isn't it natural for a county magistrate or mayor to have smooth sailing in his own county, city, or "field"?
This is true even for god-killers, and man's luck can never be compared to that of a god. The Godslayer can wipe out a part of their present life, not by their own efforts or anything, but by the power and wisdom of other gods.
It can be said that the godslayer is the product of the struggle between the gods, for example, the process of Kusanagi Godo obtaining the qualification of king, if he did not obtain the holy relics of Prometheus, he could not use the mythical characteristics of Prometheus's "stealing fire" to steal the divine power of Veleslana.
Because of his previous fate, Veleslana forgave Kusanagi Godo's crimes, and he didn't get angry like Zeus. And not only did he not pursue it, but he didn't even plan to retrieve his stolen divine power, but left it to Kusanagi Godo.
As a result, at the end of the decisive battle with the god king Mekar, the Persian god of war was seized by Kusanagi Godo and defeated him with the divine power he stole from him......
The invincible god of war, who has never been defeated once in mythology, and Villelasna, who can achieve victory no matter what kind of battlefield he faces, is dramatically defeated by his own power.
With his spear, he fought against the ancient gods, winning victory after victory.
But he probably didn't expect that his spear was too sharp, and one day he would poke himself in turn.
And Kusanagi Godo is indeed very courageous, as a human daring to seize the opportunity is already remarkable, but in fact, he definitely did not rely on his own strength to defeat the god of war.
After the whole battle, it can actually be regarded as a collision of the three pillars of divinity-
The Persian god of war and the god king of the Mediterranean were both defeated in the first battle, and before the god of war could recover and fully regain his divine power, Kusanagi Godo used his family's sacred relics to steal one-tenth of the god of war with the myth of Prometheus.
The god of war, who had returned to his divine state, did not intend to blame Kusanagi Godo for stealing his divine power, nor did he recover one-tenth of his divine power, so he continued to fight the second decisive battle with the Mediterranean God King, and finally lost under his own power.
Therefore, the defeat of one god makes a god killer, but it is not because the luck of the latter is better than that of the former, but only that the luck of the former is worse than that of another god.
Therefore, Mo Chen now also wants to see how his luck is, if it is really his own kind that has been here before, then the invisible collision between the two sides will inevitably have a result.
If he is lucky, or he doesn't deliberately capture the traces, he can get the clues he needs faster.
He glanced at the elevated area, and saw a large crowd of refugees crowded inside.
“……”
“……”
The large group of blackened refugees sitting or lying on the shore, looking at the receding flood with vacant eyes, actually behaved quite calmly.
Except for the subconscious moaning of people who are in pain because they are injured or sick, no one else has made a sound, or should I say that there is no strength to speak up...... I've cried and cried, I've shouted, what else can I do?
Mo Chen glanced at it and sighed slightly, but found that he didn't have much sympathy.
The world is never impermanent, and life is never difficult.
He has seen a lot more tragic situations, the reincarnation of original sin in the black soul world, the first fire is on the verge of extinguishing again and again, from gods, salary kings, great heroes, to countless knights, giants, flying dragons, and even the most humble thieves......
The feeling and impact extracted from those memories, Mo Chen also felt extremely shocked at first. He mastered the first fire, which was equivalent to controlling that world, so he naturally wanted to understand the magnificent and tragic epic and empathize with it.
But no matter how shocking it was at the beginning, it couldn't stand the repeated brushing, and no matter how good-looking the TV series was, it would be boring and unappetizing later.
Every time is truly apocalyptic......
Every time it's a real life......
How could he possibly feel about the scene in front of him now?
