Chapter 40: The Underworld and the Immortal
Chapter 40: The Underworld and the Immortal
On the other side, Chu Hao and the others naturally didn't know what was going on on the side of the reincarnation army, they were going all the way to the underworld under the leadership of Ai O, and as they got closer to the underworld, the land became more and more desolate, and some wild animals that had occasionally appeared here were already really extinct, and even monsters could no longer be seen, according to Ai Ou, the only creature that could survive within the scope of the underworld was estimated to be the monster three-headed dog, which was a monster that could survive by devouring souls, and was called the gatekeeper of the underworld by the world. But in reality, this is a monster, not a soldier under Hades, and the only life form that survives near the underworld.
Along the way, when the people were about to reach the River Styx, it was already night, and the people set up camp about ten kilometers away from the River Styx, and then set up camp on fire, assigned sentinel guards, etc., during which Perseus also ran with two hunter brothers to hunt a three-headed dog of hell...... A cub, a two-headed hellhound with only two heads.
"In fact, it's not all right to say that it's a young beast, in terms of age, this hell two-headed dog is indeed an adult, and even until its old age and death, it can't grow a third head, which has something to do with its bloodline and strength, and maybe there are other hidden deeper factors, which I don't know, it is said that many monsters, giant beasts, and even monsters, they have their own original ancestors, those ancestors are more powerful than gods in legends, and their descendants inherit some of their power and bloodline, but they are more or less incomplete, Not only this three-headed dog of hell, such as Thunder Eagle, such as Hydra and the like, the strongest Hydra I have ever seen is only a complete seven heads, and the strongest Thunder Eagle Collar is only two and a half meters high, the legendary Thunder Eagle ancestor stands but has a height of seven or eight meters, full of thunder and lightning, and can even lead the thunder to fall, this legend The power of the ancestor of the Thunder Eagle is comparable to Zeus. ”
In the camp, Ai O was talking to everyone about the rumors of these creatures she knew, and Chu Hao was listening to it with relish on the side, although his expression was still like I knew these things earlier, but he remembered this information deeply in his heart, this information may not be used now, but with the progress of the reincarnation world, there will always be a time when it will be useful in the future, and there seems to be some deep meaning in this information.
Just when Ai Ao told everyone the story of these mythical and legendary creatures, dinner was ready, in addition to the godmother brought by everyone, there was also the two-headed dog that was hunted before, but then again, this two-headed dog looked really curious, but the meat was delicious, oily but not greasy, and it seemed to taste a little like the most tender veal, and when Chu Hao Zhang Heng and the reincarnation soldiers ate it, they felt that their stomachs were hot all the time, not painful, but a comfortable feeling of warm stomachs, which also made them confirmThis meat is indeed not ordinary meat.
"Maybe...... Eating the meat of legendary creatures such as the three-headed dog of hell and the unicorn can awaken the fighting spirit faster, which is much more convenient than staying in these high demon planes for a long time. ”
Chu Hao said this very quietly, and Zhang Heng next to him heard it, and Zhang Heng immediately made a thief's appearance, and also whispered: "You mean to say that you can have a fighting spirit by eating more meat of this kind of creature?" Is it the kind that is covered in gold? ”
"It's just possible!" Chu Hao said angrily: "You just make the actions that you usually should do, don't just whisper, and immediately become so obscene, as if you want others to show up...... I just mentioned a possibility, after all, we were all born and raised from the demonless plane, and we didn't have the opportunity to study the various attributes of the demonic plane, and it was impossible to know the mechanism of awakening the internal force of the fighting qi, so it can only be deduced from some logical judgments, the simplest logic is that the biggest difference between the demonless and the demonic plane is whether there is aura in existence, and the essence of aura is to let living and non-living things absorb, so as to produce various changes in the demonic plane, such as internal force, such as fighting energy, such as magic, Or abilities and so on, to put it simply, it is to absorb the aura, and how much aura is absorbed, which causes the difference between whether there are demons in the plane, and the difference between low demons and high demons, so to absorb, what is faster than eating and absorbing? So from a simple logical point of view, eating the food of this world, especially eating the high magic food of this world, can definitely make people have fighting energy or internal strength or abilities faster. ”
Zhang Heng suddenly said with a sudden realization: "Oh, I understand, what do you mean is that in the demon plane at the beginning of the low demon, foodies are invincible, right?" ”
“…… You have such a point, I am speechless......" Chu Hao said angrily.
"Good!"
Zhang Heng suddenly made an effort, and then in everyone's attention, he walked directly to the bonfire, gave Si the hind leg of the two-headed wolf that had been cooked, and then walked back to his place as if no one was around, and then began to chew and eat, by the way, the size of this two-headed wolf is not the size of the wolf on the earth, it can be called a giant wolf directly, the size is almost the same as the size of a cow on the earth, so a hind leg is definitely not something that one person can eat......
Chu Hao was speechless to Zhang Heng directly, he didn't bother to care about the actions of this idiot funny killer, he just ate some dry food, and then walked to the place where the Styx River was located by himself, he planned to see this Styx with his own eyes, he was very interested in this world, no, it should be the existence of the world after death.
Since Chu Hao entered the world of reincarnation, he has often searched for various myths, history, science fiction, ghosts, legends and ballads from all over the world, and even those virtual information, such as the SCP series, or the Cthulhu Mythos series, etc., and as far as he knows, in many civilizations around the world, there is a river in the afterlife world, and this river is generally the place where the soul of the dead arrives, such as the Nai River in Chinese mythology, and the Santu River in Japanese mythology, Or the River Styx in Western Greek mythology, etc., which is actually a very strange thing.
You know, these civilizations had very little communication in ancient times, and even some civilizations did not have any communication at all, and were distributed all over the earth, and it was in that situation that the same river description of the afterlife was almost invariably produced.
"Styx?"
In the dark, Chu Hao walked to the edge of the River Styx without any worries, in fact, he really has nothing to worry about, in this world, his strength may not be as good as any of the gods, and for some legendary creatures, he may not be able to match, such as the Kraken, he is estimated to be unmatched, but for the vast majority of creatures in this world, his strength is overwhelming, after having the godhead, his strength has reached a certain critical point, and for this, he is quite clear, So he didn't have any worries along the way.
In this way, Chu Hao easily came to the edge of the River Styx, and then what he saw was a "river" as vast as the sea, which was simply impossible to see at a glance, you must know that Chu Hao's eyesight at this moment is not the kind of ordinary person, almost as long as he can see it, he can almost see it as clearly as a telescope, and there will be no obstacle to his vision at night, he can at least see dozens of kilometers away, and he still can't see the end of this River Styx.
"Don't go on, the River Styx doesn't have an end, at least on a physical level, even if it's just a tributary of a tributary of a tributary of the River Styx, it still doesn't have an end, you can actually see this as a small part of the external projection of a special plane called the River Styx, and what you see is just a small part of the projection of this special plane in this plane, the real River Styx, stored in a higher level of latitude, it has to be a saint, Or if you have to describe and explain things that only God can see and understand intuitively, then you might as well identify Styx as a concept, a multiverse concept for some specific existence, similar to the bottomless abyss and the like......"
When Chu Hao looked at this boundless and endless so-called "river", a voice sounded behind him, this voice he had heard, it was Hades's voice, and it was also one of his main targets this time, but what made him feel incredible and inexplicable was that this voice said words that should not have been spoken by Hades at all, so he immediately turned his head, and sure enough, Hades was standing behind him, and Hades at this moment was very different from the treacherous Hades in the movie, if you have to describe it exactly, Hades at this moment looks more vicissitudes of life, and there is a taste of kindness.
"Meet again, my lord, great ......"
Hades is an old man, he is smiling at the moment, but the words on his mouth are non-stop, he continued: "It's really a very unexpected thing to be able to come here to meet you, the road sign has gone to the eye of the desolate sea, and there are a few loopholes in his monitoring, but my time is running out, and this hole will be closed in fifty-seven seconds, so I try to make a long story short." ”
"If you want to fulfill your great wish, then first you must get back the memory, at least part of the memory, and secondly, you can't accomplish anything with the great wish and memory, so you must get your power back, your memory and power are in that only remaining core fragment, in the lonely mountain, guarded by Bahamut's direct descendant, his youngest son the red dragon Smaug, but please remember that Smaug is the real body and not a projection, although its power and memory are also sealed, but in the only plane, It has a chance to break the seal, and in any case, you have to avoid this kind of thing, and remember to ......"
"Don't believe too much what you have not seen with your own eyes, and what you have witnessed, whether it is good or bad, whether it is good or evil, there is no absolute good and evil in this world......"
"Please try to consider any conversation or decision with the Dao Sign, the Dao Biao may be for your good, but as the Dao Biao itself, he is often unable to ...... himself"
"Finally...... As a subordinate of my lord, I just hope that you will think again at the last minute, my lord...... You've done so much for our people, and you don't need to do that for this thing, so ......"
But Hades's words were only here, suddenly, Chu Hao's eyes flashed, and he vaguely saw a Xuanhuang aura swept by, and then, Hades showed a confused expression, and then, as if he was taken aback, the whole person made a vigilant movement and floated back dozens of meters away, and at the same time looked at Chu Hao with a nervous expression and said, "What did you do to me!?" Why am I here!? ”
