Chapter 9 Chapter 188 - The Bestowal of Titles (II)
"More than 10,000 years ago, did my Huaxia Kingdom have a history of civilization at that time?"
The answer to the question asked by Zhang Chen seems to be in the history books, but the answer at this time is the opposite, and this civilization is extremely prosperous.
"The title of 'Emperor' is not suitable for me, I am not a king, and I don't want to be a king. I just want to protect everyone around me, and I don't want to go down a path that I don't want to do. ”
Zhang Chen looked at the wooden door that opened on the side of the palace in front of him, and walked in without hesitation, without regretting the decision he made.
However, there is no terrible scene behind the wooden door, but a small room of tens of square meters, and an iron square safe is placed on the desktop in the center, but there is no lock on the top, and there is a small mouth with sharp teeth in the lock position.
At the same time, a golden knife was placed next to the safe, and an uneasy premonition rose in Zhang Chen's heart.
"Disobedience to the king's command is an aggravated crime. However, our king has given you a chance, and in the iron cabinet in front of you is placed something that can forgive your sins, but if you open the iron cabinet, you can only feed the brain-eating worms at the lock. The brain-eating worm needs to eat 100 grams of living human brains to open the iron door. ”
"If you show your very human side, I will kill you here instantly. In addition, because I prefer to study medicine, I will give you a little hint, the human anterior lobe does not have much effect on the whole brain, and there is no problem in removing it theoretically. ”
The sound disappeared in the room, and Zhang Chen couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
The other party's purpose was already very obvious, Zhang Chen needed to use the golden knife in front of him to open his skull, and at the same time cut off about 100 grams of the forebrain lobe and fed it to the brain-eating worm, so that it could open the safe.
Ordinary people have to cut off any part of their body on their own, such as the simplest fingers. It will be an extremely difficult thing, removing the brain, Zhang Chen never thought about it, let alone removing it himself.
"I don't know if an ordinary person's body can bear it, if I fall into a coma during the excision, I will also face death. And it feels like it's in a safe. I'm afraid there are even more torturous things in place. ”
Zhang Chen didn't dare to hesitate too much when he picked up the golden knife, and Zhang Chen didn't dare to bet on the king's patience.
The sharp knife cut along the upper edge of the head, and the pain caused to Zhang Chen in the process of pulling out the scalp was indescribable. Next is the key point - the skull, and when my fingers touch the warm skull, I feel a tingling sensation all over my body.
The knife cut along the skull, and Zhang Chen almost lost consciousness in the process.
Usually, the shattering of one's own body or the breaking of various limbs is based on the condition of S-class whole-body transformation ability, and while maintaining partial perception, the neural sensing only maintains the original 5%, so even the feeling of bursting the whole body is only equivalent to making a slight incut in the whole body with a knife.
And now it's 100% painful. Coupled with the sense of self-protection, Zhang Chen's hands were constantly shaking during the cutting process. In order not to hurt his brain, Zhang Chen also had to stop cutting when his hands were shaking badly.
"Bang dang!"
The white skull covered in blood fell to the ground, Zhang Chen's whole body was soaked with sweat, and even his feet tended to be numb in the process, while his eyes were oozing blood and turned red.
"Anterior lobe ......"
Now that he has made up his mind that Zhang Chen will not procrastinate anything, if there is any hesitation, Zhang Chen is afraid that he will not be able to do it with such determination as he is now.
Slowly bring the scalpel closer to the beating front brain. When the cold blade touches the hot brain, this internal tingling is accompanied by a pinprick sensation. Zhang Chen faintly felt that his soul was trembling.
"Once or twice? It's all at once......" Zhang Chen raised the knife and cut off all the brains in front of him.
"Woohoo!" The golden knife carried his brain and fell to the ground, and Zhang Chen's whole body fell straight to the ground and kept twitching, with a large amount of white foam in his mouth, and his eyes kept rolling upward.
"Ahh The pain that penetrates deep into the bone marrow, in exchange is generally already dead here.
But Zhang Chen's will did not collapse from beginning to end. Three years of training have been achieved, Wang Yizhi's face reappeared a few days ago, and now she can't die.
The convulsions slowly stopped, and the fingers of Zhang Chen's right hand twitched slightly, and the whole person staggered and slowly stood up from the ground.
Holding the still warm brain slice in his hand, he fed it to the brain-eating worm on the safe in front of him.
"Click!" The iron door of the safe opens. Inside, there was a glass bottle containing a black, bubbling liquid that could smell a disgusting rancid smell even if it was corked with a wooden cork.
"Not bad! As a reward, almost no one of our soldiers was able to do this, and as a reward, our king gave a bottle of liquid milled from the body fluids and sacs of thirty-six precious poisonous insects collected from the Western Regions. Drink it, and I will forgive your sins. ”
At this time, Zhang Chen was already a little delirious, and at the same time, his physical state could be said to be extremely poor, and the metabolic system in his body had been completely destroyed due to the cutting of the brain.
"Drink...... If I drink it, my body will definitely not be able to hold it, but is there any other way? ”
Zhang Chen grabbed the glass bottle, and he was no longer able to pull out the sealed cork, so he had to smash the bottle mouth. The foul smell slowly flowed into Zhang Chen's mouth, and a large number of black meridians immediately appeared under the skin of his entire body, and they kept squirming.
And Zhang Chen's own consciousness immediately dissipated.
"Buzz!"
A burst of tinnitus continued to sound, and when Zhang Chen's eyes opened slightly, he had already left the underground palace and appeared in a closed white space around him, but there was a layer of viscous black foul-smelling substance attached to Zhang Chen's body, which was very similar to the liquid he drank before.
But Zhang Chen felt that his body had undergone unprecedented changes, and there was a faint sense of transformation evolving in his body.
"You already have a certain possibility to achieve a goal that I have not achieved in my lifetime, although you and I are creatures of the same kind who have gathered the origin of the Three Realms, but there is a big deviation in ambition and ability. I am here to rule over the ages, and you are here to defend your own morality. In this case, my secret treasure is not suitable for you, and may even hinder your growth. ”
"However, the liquid I asked you to drink before was not a poisonous thing, but a bottle of liquid that removed the impurities and useless things from your body, and besides my king, the three generals who laid down the country for my king and my concubine drank this priceless liquid, and no one was qualified to drink it."
"Thank you, senior." Zhang Chen's whole body has been repaired, and he thanked him regardless of his previous suspicions.
"This is also as compensation for your failure to inherit my name and treasure, but while you have been washing and scavenging, I have examined your body and found that you are very similar to one of the soldiers before me. He laid the foundation for my king, made outstanding contributions even more than any one person, and his life experience was almost side by side with me in the prosperous period, such talents cannot stay in the ordinary world. ”
"As my guilt for it, I will continue its name and give it to you."
At the end of the words, a pitch-black wooden plaque appeared in Zhang Chen's hand in the white space, and a two-character title was imprinted on it from the liquid made from white ashes.
- Hunting -
"This soldier is not a native of our country, but a civilian in a remote area. Similar to you, in order to protect your family, you killed a small group of soldiers in my court, and in order to leave no traces and lack of food, you even ate these corpses directly, filling your stomach and destroying the corpses by the way.
Then I took a fancy to a prime minister and asked this person to serve our country and fight in all directions.
The enemies who fell into his hands became food for his mouth, and the soldiers who followed him never suffered casualties. Such righteous and fierce people are directly given the title of 'Hunting' by me.
Compared with him, although you have great righteousness, you have not reached great evil. I hope to use this title to experience your mind, in my opinion, only those who do everything to the extreme can reach the top of all things. ”
Zhang Chen took the number plate and nodded silently.
"I hope you can fulfill my wish that was not fulfilled 10,000 years ago, and kill the Core of Chaos. It is a humiliation that the things of this world have destroyed my prosperous dynasty, and thousands of soldiers have been reduced to ashes. ”
"Chaos Core ......" Zhang Chen's first reaction when he heard these four words was to think of Azathoth.
"I will definitely get rid of this thing, please rest assured."
"People are small, but their tone is not small. It's just that you haven't seen it in its true form, otherwise you wouldn't be able to say such big things. At this point, I will go to sleep, hoping that the next time we meet, you and I will be on an equal footing with the blood of chaos in your hands. ”
In an instant, the space collapsed, leaving only some dilapidated temples and incense burned in the golden bowl in front of them.
When Zhang Chen grabbed the number in his hand and left the temple, some of the people waiting outside had already left, including his master. There are only three people waiting here: Wu Lao, Worm Ying and Yu Ming.
"Zhang Chen, you!" Elder Wu looked at Zhang Chen with incredible eyes, "Do you know how much time you spend inside?" ”
Zhang Chen reacted at this time, I am afraid that he has been in a coma for a long time after drinking the black liquid, and the gods have already left, Zhang Chen hurriedly asked, "Elder Wu, when is it now?" ”
"You went in for three days and three nights, and Huaxia Guo's plan of action for Atlantis has been fully launched."
"I need to go back quickly." Zhang Chen was taken aback, he didn't expect that he would spend so much time inside.
"Don't worry, a meeting is going on today, because your special situation will probably be discussed at the meeting. Give me your grade! ”
When Zhang Chen handed over the pitch-black wooden plaque in his hand, Wu Lao couldn't help frowning, because the titles that the prison envoy received from the prison consciousness were all pale yellow wooden plaques, and there were no exceptions for thousands of years...... (To be continued......)
