Chapter 246: Ice and Fire Beast
PS: I wish you all a happy Chinese New Year and a prosperous Year of the Monkey! Wealth is rolling like the East China Sea, Fulu is healthy and spring!
This lizard creature is called the Ice and Fire Beast, and it was once the pet of the old king of the Blood Clan. Since childhood, he has been fed by the old king with two strange elemental crystals, ice and fire. And use its own qi and blood to nourish its body, so it will develop the unique energy system and strong blood and qi control ability of this ice and fire beast.
The old king was defeated and died, and the beast of ice and fire accompanied him until he took his last breath, and finally the old king's body was shattered, turned into endless blood and buried in the ground. Although the rich blood in this back garden has countless human souls, more of them retain the blood of the old king of the blood clan, and it is precisely because of the nourishment of the blood of the old king of the blood clan that this back garden will not have the slightest sign of decay in thousands of years of changes. It can be said that this back garden is the tomb of the old king of the blood clan.
Although the Ice and Fire Beast had been sucking Ice and Fire Elemental Crystals since he was a child, these two completely different forces were gradually transforming his body. However, after years of absorbing energy, his body has also accumulated some hidden dangers when he becomes stronger. That is, the energy remnants stored in the body will burst out at regular intervals. At the same time as this ice and fire energy exploded, the ice and fire beast would experience unprecedented pain, and his body would be constantly washed away by the hot and cold energy flow for nearly a month. After a full month, even if the Ice and Fire Beast survived, it was almost stripped of its skin.
For this reason, the old king of the blood clan had consulted the texts in an attempt to find a perfect solution. Because he found that in the long time together, this beast of ice and fire actually produced wisdom and self-awareness. And can use the stream of consciousness to do simple communication, from the moment he found it, the old king of the blood clan regarded this beast of ice and fire as his family, so he did not hesitate to look through various classics, and finally the old king of the blood clan finally found a way. It's a rare flower, a twin flower.
The Twin Flower is an unusually peculiar plant, it has the properties of ice and fire, and both energies are extremely domineering. But such a powerful energy can coexist safely in the twin flowers. This is already difficult to explain with common sense. Therefore, the old king of the blood clan went to the battlefield of the alien race, snatched one of them, and planted it in his back garden.
However, the twin flowers are extremely special, although the petals contain powerful ice and fire energy, they are extremely fragile and extremely afraid of light. So if you want to grow it and feed it, the only way is to bury it deep underground.
To this end, the Old King of the Bloodline has created a special container for the twin flowers. It's the giant metal ball that Allen sees in the world of insight.
But it's a pity that the new king launched a war to seize power, the old king was defeated and finally died, at the time of death, the old king of the blood clan watched his blood descendants all die, only this ice and fire beast escaped, so the old king of the blood clan sealed his favorite pet in this black rose castle, but the twin flowers at that time did not bloom, so the old king of the blood clan could only tell the address to the ice and fire beast. I hope that my last loved one can live.
Seeing that the Black Rose Castle was gradually deserted, and the energy explosions in the body of the Ice and Fire Beast were becoming more and more frequent, finally in the recent period, the Ice and Fire Beast felt the energy fluctuations of the twin flowers. The hot and icy energy had a fatal attraction to it, but unfortunately the old king of the blood clan did not anticipate the war for power of the new king at that time, although he left a way to open the metal ball, but it was not something that the Ice and Fire Beast could do.
In a hurry, the Ice and Fire Beast can only use brute force. Prepare to eat away the outer skin of the metal sphere little by little, and then dig out the twin flowers.
Eren finally browsed through all the memories of the Ice and Fire Beast, and this method of forcibly reading the memories did a lot of damage to the Ice and Fire Beast. Fortunately, the survival time of this alien beast has already caught up with the fossil, and the recovery power is amazing. Alan retracted his consciousness with satisfaction, and then continued, "I can spare you, and I can also help you get the twin flowers and completely solve the problems in your body. But before I can do that, I need your help getting me underground, and maybe I can get the metal ball open. ”
"Your purpose, too, Twins?" The vertical pupils of the Ice and Fire Beast showed a vigilant look, and the appearance that was quite docile just now disappeared in a blink of an eye, after all, this is related to its life and death, if Eren really came for the twins, the Ice and Fire Beast would definitely resist to the death. Anyway, both horizontal and vertical are dead, and although the Ice and Fire Beast has been adopted as a pet by the old king of the Blood Clan since childhood, it is a beast after all, and it still retains its bloodthirsty wildness.
Allen's gaze was cold, and the blood around him suddenly turned into a blood-colored stream of water and suddenly wrapped around the neck of the Ice and Fire Beast, as Allen's face became more and more gloomy, and the water flow tightened and tightened like a rope, and finally carried the Ice and Fire Beast into the air. Alan sneered and said: "Now I need you to understand that I am not discussing with you, I have many ways to deal with you, and the most convenient way is to completely erase your consciousness and then become my puppet." ”
The stream of consciousness of the Ice and Fire Beast roared angrily, and its huge tail tried to draw at Allen, but it was trapped by a stream of blood, and it could no longer move.
"At the beginning, my master was afraid that people would erase my consciousness, so he planted an alchemy circle in the depths of my consciousness, and it was up to you!" The Ice and Fire Beast said stiffly.
Alan sneered and stood up, only to see his right hand suddenly twisted, a huge pitch-black blade appeared out of thin air, and the fierce viral aura made the Ice and Fire Beast feel a great threat, and its body even trembled involuntarily. Beasts are born with a strong sense of perception, they have a sixth sense that is different from ordinary people, and can often spot some potential threats. When this pitch-black blade appeared, the Ice and Fire Beast already felt a tremor in the depths of its soul. Even it suddenly had a feeling that even the alchemy circle planted by its own master could not protect itself.
"I hope you understand that I'm very different from the bloodlines you've seen before."
The huge blade on Allen's right arm lightly crossed the body of the Ice and Fire Beast, and the sharp sword slashed on the opponent's colorful skin, the scales that were as hard as steel but like a thin cloth, were easily cut under the blade, revealing wisps of scarlet blood.
"I can do a lot of things, such as using my special energy to infect you and turn you into a puppet who is completely obedient to me." Eren sat back on the throne made of flesh and blood, "But I can give you a choice now. It was to help me go underground and take out the twins. Instead, I'm going to turn you into a puppet and take me underground to take out the twins? ”
The Ice and Fire Beast was lost in thought, and Eren was not in a hurry, he continued: "I have a friend who is in much the same situation as you, but the only difference is that he has been poisoned by the energy toxin of the Ice Flower in the Twin Flowers. Now his life is in danger, and I am here to save him. Once you get the twins, as long as you promise not to destroy the flowers. How about I consider giving you some of the energy out there? ”
Hearing this, the Ice and Fire Beast's golden vertical pupils flickered, and its voice was transmitted through the stream of consciousness again: "Actually, I just need a trace of energy in the twin flowers, because the master once said that the energy of the twin flowers is too domineering, if I absorb too much, I can't help but relieve my energy burst symptoms, and it may continue to worsen, and eventually completely destroy my body." ”
"That being the case. What are you waiting for? With a wave of his hand, Eren let go of the rope made of blood and fire.
"I'm just worried if you can open that metal ball!" The Ice and Fire Beast shook its body, the wound on its chest healed instantly, and then it lay on its stomach on the ground and continued. "Although the master did not open the metal sphere when he was dying, he told me how to do it. But this method is too special. ”
When Alan heard this, he couldn't help but become interested, and hurriedly asked, "What's the way, talk about it." ”
"This metal ball was locked by its master using multiple alchemy circles. In order to keep the twin flowers from falling into the hands of others, the owner once mentioned that if you want to force it open. Then there is only one way, and that is to use the blood of the blood essence that is comparable to that of the king of the blood clan. ”
Alan couldn't help but nodded: "Maybe I can really open it." ”
The Ice and Fire Beast came to the center of the back garden suspiciously, and then its front paws suddenly raised, and then slammed on the ground, Alan was surprised to find that the soil actually began to shake, and then slowly revealed the entrance of a black hole.
"This ......" Alan walked to the cave in confusion, and then looked into the world and projected the surrounding situation into Alan's mind. Alan couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "It's so simple, I'm really stupid." ”
It turned out that this Ice and Fire Beast did not possess any special abilities, but instead used the simplest method. Because this soil had already been thoroughly soaked with blood qi, and the blood qi control ability possessed by the Ice and Fire Beast just came into play, he mobilized the blood qi in the soil to forcibly open a passage to the underground.
Alan secretly scolded himself in his heart for being stupid, since he knew the specific method, it was naturally him who did it himself. I saw that the blood and soil were kneaded into downward steps like soft dough under Allen's control. Alan walked up with his legs raised, and with each step, a new staircase sprouted in the distance, spreading all the way down.
The ice and fire beast behind Eren walked cautiously, and there was no wildness in the vertical pupils, but looked at Alan's back a little stunned, it suddenly had an illusion, this back suddenly became familiar, as if its own master was still alive in this world.
Alan hadn't noticed the thought of the huge creature behind him, and he was completely immersed in a new feeling. In the past, Allen's perception of blood was still superficial. He has always believed that blood qi is the energy used by the blood clan in battle, but today, he understands that blood qi is not just energy, but a part of the blood clan's body that extends outward, just for now, Alan uses the blood qi drilled into the dirt to easily control the shape and density of the soil, and even structure the soil as hard as steel. On a whim, he suddenly reached out and grabbed a piece from the surrounding cave wall with his right hand, and then injected the blood and qi in his body into it. Alan felt the change in the soil, and as soon as his mind moved, the soil began to reconstruct and deform on his palm, and finally formed a long sword.
Eren held the clay sword in his hand, and then slashed forward, the sharp wind brought the sound of breaking through the air, Eren's eyes bloomed with brilliance, and his body had greatly increased in strength after evolution. Ordinary blades can't be used at all, but this earthy sword blessed by blood and qi can withstand it.
"Blood, it's really useful!" Eren smiled and withdrew his blood, and the clay sword shattered in an instant, turning into dust.
This man and beast are slowly advancing in this underground passage, and Alan is experiencing the magic of blood and energy, and is constantly trying. And the beast of ice and fire stared at Allen's back, as if he had discovered a new continent. I walked like this for hours.
"Sure enough, it's a twin!"
At this moment, the huge metal ball had appeared in Allen's sight, and the hot and cold energy alternated with each other, occupying half of the area of the metal ball. Alan just wanted to walk up but suddenly stopped, then he turned to look at the ice and fire beast behind him and asked, "Has your master ever mentioned how to preserve these twin flowers, and once they are fully bloomed, how to collect the ice and fire energy?" ”
The Ice and Fire Beast pondered for a moment, and then remembered its voice in the stream of consciousness: "The master did mention it, but it was very vague, he said that a special container is needed to take the twin flowers away, otherwise once the two energies of the flowers are released, they will explode when they collide in the outside world." ”
Allen's brow furrowed, although he had discussed this with Mr. Slim and had prepared a special energy isolation vessel, but Allen's heart was always bottomless. The twin flowers were a curiosity, and he didn't think that an artificially crafted energy container would be able to take them away. But from the mouth of this beast of ice and fire, there were no useful clues. The container that its owner is talking about will certainly not be so simple.
For a while, Alan was a little unsure about paying attention, but at this moment, the Ice and Fire Beast spoke: "After the twin flowers bloom, they must be dealt with immediately, otherwise their energy will leak out." And the bloom of the twin flowers is probably just a few days away, and it is very likely to be today. You have to prepare early. ”
Alan just wanted to say something, the metal ball suddenly vibrate, and the two energies on it suddenly exploded, and Alan secretly screamed that it was not good!
The twin flowers are going to bloom at this time! (To be continued.) )
