Chapter 2: Fear and ...... Harvest of the Mage Tower (1)
It has been ten days since Zheng Zhe entered the Lord of the Rings again, and according to the discussion with Chu Xuan and others, in the 90 days he has entered the Lord of the Rings, in addition to constantly condensing the true yuan power, the power of the Tiger Spirit Knife, and the use of the Tushi Bagua Furnace, he also has to find the legendary magic items that the mage can get when he steps on it, or the rune combination formula that may be stored in it, which is his basic task...... In addition to these tasks, he also has a mission that he knows about himself...... Demon in the heart...... If you want to become stronger, then you have to overcome the demon in your heart, this is the gap between him and the clone of him, if you want to become stronger further, then the demon is a hurdle.
At that time, when he was in the Transformers, because of Chu Xuan's help, he temporarily woke up from his inner demons, but this was only a palliative solution after all, at this moment he was stuck between the primary and intermediate levels of unlocking the fourth order of the gene lock, although he could control his own genes, but he could not change them, he could also experience what power contained in what genes, but he couldn't use it, this feeling was really terrible.
Zheng Zha sat silently on the end of a big tree, he closed his eyes and silently felt the gene cycle in his body, in addition to the basic genes as a human being, he also had the remaining three genetic remnants in his body, one is the blood gene, which is a slightly modified and strengthened human gene, which can produce hemorrhagic energy in the body, and the second is the dragon gene, which is a new gene model, but because this gene fragment is incomplete, the role that can be played in his body is only to strengthen the body. Plus the ability to use the body to restore fù power and strength.
Zheng Zha has been able to slightly control the zhì gene, in order to try a certain section of the effect in the body, he can leave this gene blank, and then provide it with energy to try to act, in addition to the above two non-human gene fragments, there is another extremely terrible gene fragment hidden in his body.
The reason why it is said to be a terrible gene fragment is because when he vacated this gene and provided it with energy, in an instant, this gene fragment quickly began to spread around, not only bringing genetic isolation to penetration, but even the strengthened gene fragments around were instantly eroded, this small piece of gene has an extremely strong element, whether it is strengthening itself, or using energy, this gene has an unparalleled advantage, at least compared with the rest of the genes, Its genes in Zheng Zha's body are basically equivalent to the highest existence of the emperor.
Maybe this is the gene of the ancient demon who once had zài in his body...... Zheng Zha sighed and opened his eyes, several times he wanted to enter the state of the demon again, but several times he was defeated and retreated, he really had too deep scruples, that kind of realm of great freedom he still has a deep memory at the moment, even if just thinking about it casually is enough to make him silent in it, if he enters that state regardless of a qiē, then he will always be addicted to it, and then he will never return to reality.
Zheng Zhe had a hint of realization in his heart, he needed an opportunity.
Thinking back to the past when the gene lock was opened, or when the strength was greatly improved, was that time not the completion of this qiē in the midst of emotional turmoil? Only the hope of survival, or the hope of protecting his companions, when these hopes or moods reach the peak of agitation, that is when he has made breakthroughs in the past, if he wants to get through this demon torment out of nothing, he really has no confidence.
According to Chu Xuan and Xiao Honglu's analysis, he will face the demon reincarnation team after four or five horror movies at most, although it is just speculation and analysis, but it is still very possible, in other words, if it is really four or five horror movies, he will have to face the demon reincarnation team, just like Chu Xuan asked him...... Is he really ready?
"Am I really ready?"
Zheng Qi smiled bitterly and didn't know what expression to make, he asked himself, is it really ready? Originally, after Resident Evil II, he did a qiē, in addition to resurrecting the former team members, one of the qiē he did was to keep getting stronger until he was qualified to face his clone, but the stronger he became, the more he felt fear.
The newborn cow is not afraid of the tiger, it's not that the tiger is not scary, but the newborn cow doesn't know that the tiger is terrible, when he fought with the clone, and even when he started to resurrect the team members later, he didn't think that the clone was terrible, he was just stronger than him, the concept of strong was not wrong, the key question was...... How much stronger?
The more powerful he became, the more Zheng Zha felt the strength of the other party, the power that was much stronger than himself, and as Zheng Zha kept getting stronger, the more he felt fear of the clone...... But it's also a good thing, when his fear of clones reaches its peak, that's when he can compete with clones!
Although Zheng Zhe didn't notice this, from the bottom of his heart, every time he recalled the clone, he felt a fear from the depths of his genes, which may be a sign of his strength.
After entering the world of the Lord of the Rings for more than ten days, Zheng Zha, who had not found anything except for condensing a large amount of true yuan power, had found nothing in other aspects, he finally went in the direction of the mage tower, and arrived at Isengh within a day after using the Green Goblin skateboard, and when he arrived there, he found that in addition to the excavation site, a market had formed in a place not far away, and looking at the population there, it seemed to have become a human town.
The person who stayed behind in Isengh was Gandalf, an old man who had become a white-robed wizard, and he planned to build another mage tower in Isengard, and this mage tower would be used as his residence, of course, in fact, the best location for the mage tower to build was on the excavation site, according to the original underground foundation, such a mage tower may have the function of two mage towers.
"Underground, and above-ground, this will be an unparalleled mage, at least unprecedented." Gandalf said excitedly.
The excavation of the entire mage tower had already been completed, but it was only dug to the top of the sunken mage tower, and Gandalf then stopped the civilians from continuing to excavate, according to his words, mages are people with great power, especially the mage tower, where the mage lives, has unparalleled magical power, and any ordinary person who tries to enter it must have the consciousness of being killed.
"Even if there is no master in the Mage Tower, this is still a dangerous area, it is full of magic prohibitions, and there are a large number of magic guards in existence......" Gandalf said, holding a mage staff and walking into the mage tower, followed by Zheng Zhe alone.
Zheng Zha learned from Gandalf the meaning of the Tower of the Mage, for wizards, although they are people with great power, they are more of a seeker.
"A wizard should be a simple seeker, we are all constantly studying various phenomena in the world, magic is one of them, humanities is also, history is also, and even the balance between various races is also, the responsibility of wizards is to keep finding out the truth, and summarize the people, and the power of magic is just an accessory to it." Gandalf said to Zheng Qi as he walked forward.
(Isn't that a scientist?) It sounds like the wizards and scientists in the Lord of the Rings seem imaginary. Gandalf continued: "So the Mage's Tower is actually where we verify and summarize these phenomena, either to write them down as a record text for future generations, or to apply them to reality, and that's the role of the Mage's Tower, so it's very unrealistic for you to find a lot of treasure in this Mage Tower, although the wizards are rich, but they are rich in jīng gods and magical materials, but they are not so rich in money and the like." ”
Zheng Zha laughed and said: "I'm not short of money, it's magic materials or magic items, this is what I want the most, by the way, the experience of wizards, I also want to see the texts that record things." ”
In fact, compared to energy stones, or ordinary legendary magic weapons, what Zheng Zhe really wanted the most was the combination formula of those rune images, or the way of placing the formation, this was what he really wanted, because once these combination formulas were used by Chu Xuan, he was not sure what useful things would be created.
After entering from the top of the Mage's Tower, Gandalf and Zheng Zhe cautiously walked down here, because the Mage's Tower almost collapsed into the ground, so in fact, many floors had been completely shattered, and some mud and stone had blocked the passage to continue down, but this was difficult for Zheng Zha, after a few brushes with the Tiger Knife volley, these mud and stone passages were cleared, and the huge power of the Tiger Knife even Gandalf felt shocked and surprised.
Regardless of its negative dangers and the harsh conditions for using it, the power of the Tiger Spirit Knife has surpassed that of all A-level legendary magic weapons, it is not a mortal thing, it is a magic weapon refined by cultivators.
With the help of the Tiger Sword, the speed of the two of them going downstairs was extremely fast, but when they crossed the collapsed floor, then the real problem was in front of the two of them, that is, the magic ban, as Gandalf said, because there is no master's control, so the magic ban inside can also be lifted, but it takes enough time, so Zheng Zha, who didn't have much hope, also stayed in Issinger temporarily, on the one hand, he tried his best to condense the true yuan force, On the one hand, carefully think about the moves or tactics to improve his strength, and how to eliminate his inner demons.
Time flew by, and when more than seventy days had passed, Gandalf finally broke through the ban on one of the floors, and in front of Zheng Zhe was a large number of records of wizards' magical research, all recorded in an ancient script similar to hieroglyphs......
