Chapter 141: The Elemental Well
The plane landed in Glendive, Montana, after which it needed to drive to the site of the incident, which is the reservation area on the border between Montana and North Dakota.
"Why don't you fly over?"
"Reserved area, a lot of things are inconvenient. William replied.
"Oh. ”
But I don't know if it's to disgust the native Indians, or if it's really necessary, the main car of the team actually uses the Paramount Marauder, Knight XV, this kind of mechanical masterpiece that can compare the Hummer to a child, as long as the male hormone content is normal, there is nothing to dislike.
Zhao Wenrui finally chose Dongfeng Iron Armor.
It's not just because of feelings, but the appearance of the Dongfeng Iron Armor of this plane is not a Humvee, but an orv that is better than the Paramount Marauder and the card, with first-class anti-mine and anti-ambush performance.
Of course, the best comprehensive performance is still the Knight XV, which belongs to the top SUV, not a pure off-road vehicle. As for its price, it is also William's car, Zhao Wenrui still has water in his eyes, so he didn't grab it.
Surrounded by the regular armored explosion-proof vehicles of the Secret Service, the three main vehicles drove onto Route 94 and drove to their destination.
The trail is desolate and lackluster. This is the main theme, the reserved area, of course, is the poor mountains and bad waters, could it be a place of ointment?
After the two farmtowns of Weber and Yates, the north-south state boundary between Montana and North Dakota is not far away.
In this country with little history, there are basically no stories of repeated contention for state borders, so many lots are horizontal and vertical, and this section is a typical representative.
Specifically, it's a highway with Montana on the left and North Dakota on the right. Both sides are farmland, and because they are both reserves, it doesn't matter if they cross states.
Follow the road to the north, until there is no road, and you have to go north, which shows the effect of the off-road vehicle afterwards, and the wasteland snow, still advances, and there is no need to change to a snowmobile or anything.
At this time, the convoy was no longer a stream, and Zhao Wenrui saw a puff of smoke from a distance, and the closer it was, the more spectacular it became.
But the problem is that today's wind is very strong, at least 6 degrees, rolling up the snow whirlpool, which is commonly known as the white-haired wind, the wind at high altitude will only be stronger, in this case the smoke column is straight, which is obviously supernatural.
When I got closer, I saw the flames under the billowing smoke, like a lava eruption, the flames had a strong sense of substance, sprayed to a very high height, and then quickly plasmized, and produced a large amount of smoke.
Zhao Wenrui looked at it and said in his heart: "This is the Elemental Well, right?"
The elemental well is an extraordinary version of the oil field, and Zhao Wenrui has never seen it before, but he has relevant memories after blackening.
The one in front of him is very likely to be an elemental well with the dual elements of fire and earth, which is undoubtedly a blessing for users of the extraordinary power of these two attributes, while the transcendents of the water and wind elemental attributes will feel uncomfortable just by approaching this area.
He naturally doesn't care, the power of darkness is forced. Blood quality is also not an elemental type, but a compound transcendent power with soul power as the core, darkness as the mystery, and blood as the carrier.
Of course, the disadvantages are not without drawbacks, the technical requirements are high, it is not easy to generate, and the difficulty of control is also extremely high, which is still only one aspect.
Just like plastics, because of the characteristics of artificial synthesis, it cannot be well recognized by the extraordinary system is the main problem. For example, it is easy to leave traces, and it is not compatible with natural supernatural substances, and so on.
It is also because of the position of the person who has the divine soul and the power of darkness that he uses the blood system of the high and low in a similar way, and it is another matter to change people.
From his awakening to the present, he has obtained three soul fragments, one in Stump Town, and the other two through the Special Affairs Bureau.
The Secret Service didn't know the value of the soul fragments, but only collected the pale golden, translucent glass-like substance as a rare and extraordinary material.
As a result, he used alchemy as an excuse to start relatively easily.
Together with the innate awakening of consciousness, the current completion rate of the Divine Soul is 27%, and the three fragments bring about 7%, if the pace continues, the prospects are obviously more optimistic than he expected.
And the amount of collection that exceeds a quarter of the total completion level has brought about a significant increase in strength, and he is now much stronger than when he woke up.
In terms of physique, if 48 hours after awakening is the level of an Olympic athlete, now it is the level of a level 10 warrior, that is, the quality level of an elite level of extraordinary fighters who focus on flesh and blood strength.
And the blood system makes him a compound power fighter similar to the paladin, the magic swordsman, and the other.
Interestingly, in terms of the type of spell, he is not a secret law, but a holy law.
To put it bluntly, the holy law system is a system of divine power, and he is no exception, his god is a variant of the power of darkness, the source blood of darkness.
This system can be regarded as a straightforward explanation of the relationship between him and the Dark Force after he blackened, the Dark Force is his father, and the model of the Force of Nature is his father in the past, which is essentially the same as the attribute of transcendent power, rather than serving a certain will.
I have to say that as he deepened his understanding of the blood system, he gradually liked this system, which he did not have when he used the dark system before.
Don't look at him, because of the old branch factors, he has mastered a lot of practical and powerful dark skills, but in fact, he has always been at a loss. And he also knew that the path he took was extremely dangerous, and when he repaid it, he couldn't do it even if he risked his life, and it was likely that he would be like the painful souls he used when he created the shadow demon, enduring endless pain and doing things against his will until his consciousness completely collapsed.
Therefore, he loves and fears the dark forces and the skills from the old branches. Survival aversion and prevention have to be mastered as much as possible, so as to save energy and other effects, and slow down the rate of erosion.
Moreover, he also clearly felt that as the erosion deepened, he became more and more nonsensical, wanton, irritable and irritable.
And then there is the nightmare that the old branch brought him.
The power of darkness kept him from sleeping, but the old branch factor made him need to take a nap from time to time, and as long as he took a nap, he would basically enter a nightmare. It's hard to put into words, and when you open your eyes, you can leave a deep fear.
Naturally, he knew it was all a problem. And it's a terrible question. After all, as a person with a divine soul, dreaming itself is a manifestation of uncontrolled consciousness.
And since he used the blood system, this kind of problem has not appeared again. He himself felt that his mental state was getting better. Although the skills of the blood system are not as strong as those of the dark system, but from another point of view, sometimes there is such a thing as strength, not the bigger the better, just enough.
In this world, the blood system is absolutely sufficient. Although the dark system is stronger, it also comes at a great cost. Now he remembered the side effects of using the power of darkness when he first woke up, and he had palpitations, it was really the feeling of drinking a duck to quench his thirst.
And now, another sensation hit him that made him feel palpitations. It was the eruption of the elemental well's power that was too strong, creating ripple-like fluctuations of extraordinary power in the range.
This kind of fluctuation is far more terrifying than the wind and the like, at least at the level of the explosion shock wave, but the way it manifests itself is different.
For mortal things, the effect is to quickly infect, and for transcendent things or transcendental things, it is a big and inappropriate blow.
Zhao Wenrui saw that William in car No. 1 had not given an order for a long time, but he still couldn't hold back after all, and issued an order in the communication channel on his behalf: "Attention, the hunting group vehicle is 1 kilometer back and is on standby." Repeated, the hunting group vehicle retreated 1 km and stood by. ”
As the No. 3 commander of this operation, Zhao Wenrui does have command over the pot heads, but the priority is lower than that of Sosuke Mijin and William.
Sousuke Migami took advantage of this to compare, "Group B, follow in a column!"
Influenced by the Chinese style, the world is not popular with the Greek alpha and beta, but the words such as A, B, C, D, etc. are very popular, and the people of the Federation are also proud of being able to drag a few sentences of Chinese with a correct tone.
On the contrary, Zhao Wenrui felt that he was not very used to it, and even felt embarrassed, and when he looked back, he found that he was actually more or less brainwashed by foreign culture.
The three groups of A, B and C, each group of two cars, 10 people, and the driver, are a standard tactical group, and the hunters are their titles, and the 'pot head' is just a nickname that Zhao Wenrui casually gave according to the hairstyles that these people were used to.
While Sosuke Migami's marauder led his direct team to break through, Zhao Wenrui pulled out a tube of potion and slammed it directly on the front window of the car.
Suddenly, the aqua blue brilliance overflowed, and easily penetrated the outside. Extraordinary energy has the ability to change the properties of atoms, and the molecular structure of ordinary matter is the same as a sieve, so the penetration effect is extremely strong.
However, if you really change the molecular structure or the characteristics of the atom, it will cost a lot. This means that, in most cases, it will take a long time for the supernatural power to erode away.
But like the current situation, the energy of the fire and earth element is so high, the erosion process will be very fast, and there will be a tipping point, and once it is crossed, a snowball effect will be formed.
Zhao Wenrui's action was to suppress the infection of the vehicle caused by the surging power from the elemental well.
The aqua-blue light quickly completes a coating on the surface of the vehicle in a self-leveling manner.
This is a must, after all, supernatural energy has a natural advantage over ordinary matter in terms of penetration. As is the case now, it can be said that when the erosion begins, ordinary matter is fully immersed in transcendent energy in molecular units.
Therefore, comprehensive protection is the only way to prevent breaking through the erosion tipping point.
Sosuke Migami's understanding of extraordinary power is far less profound than Zhao Wenrui's. He thought that if he had his own way, he would be like a trail opener who cut through thorns, and that those who followed him would be more relaxed.
As a result, the two armored explosion-proof vehicles of Group B drove forward for a while, and suddenly the situation was eliminated.
The one that followed closely behind the marauders, like charcoal in a hot environment, suddenly burst into flames, the steel melted into molten iron, and the people inside were like shelled raw eggs in the microwave state, directly exploded, and the ammunition was like firecrackers, ping-pong explosion.
The other one, on the other hand, was completely petrified, as if it had been stared at by Medusa's gaze, and the color of the rock ash was swept away, and then the car and the people were turned to stone.
If you look closely, you will find that it is actually quite exquisite, vehicles have become metal ore, people have become coal, and chemical fibers are asphalt-like soft stones.
The presence of inertia caused the train and the stone cart to continue moving forward for a while, before they poked their heads into the earth and stopped, all of them deformed, and they looked very miserable.
At the same time, the shell of Knight XV was shrouded in a layer of holy white brilliance.
Zhao Wenrui can only say that this energy-saving ratio that will never open the shield at the last moment can be regarded as a success, and even if it is two seconds later, the Knight XV will have to choose between a bonfire and a stone.
As for the Paramount Marauders, with only a semicircular shield, they were counting on the retribution for their slick behavior of splitting the wind and waves, and the lava-like spread began from behind, and soon passed a third of the way.
Suddenly, a sharp knife flashed from inside the Marauder's car, and the Marauder was sliced vertically into two pieces, as if they had been cut with a laser.
Immediately, Sousuke Migami flew out like a big cyan bird. His very retro and ornate samurai armor was wrapped in blue light and could not be seen clearly.
The marauders who were split in half were soon melted into a pool of burning molten iron, and the same fate was the furnace of Sosuke Migami, a petite and lovely girl, still with a baby face, not long ago was full of youth, but now it is a burning scorched bone, and in the end I am afraid that there will be no ashes left.
But it must be admitted that Sosuke Migami's sense of breaking the game is still okay, at least he thought of it with William and him, and he knew that at this time, he could only advance with the courage of blood and energy, and he could not retreat, otherwise he might not have a chance to prevent the situation from deteriorating further.
What their group encountered, of course, was an emergency.
The report I received before only said that due to the discovery of an unusual transcendent passage, I was torn apart from the indigenous transcendents, and was ambushed, and suffered heavy casualties.
There were many wounded people in the church, and they would only be hunted down one by one when they ran for their lives on this great desert beach, so they chose to stick to the source.
Before Zhao Wenrui and his party came, the Special Affairs Bureau had already sent the nearest hunters to support, of course, they didn't expect them to complete the rescue, but to help hold on through modern weapons.
As a result, the indigenous transcendent was ferocious, and the helicopter could not see the hit at all when it flew high, and it was shot down directly if it flew low. So it didn't help much.
As for communication, depending on the situation of this elemental eruption, it is impossible to still be contacted, and it has been interrupted a long time ago.
Therefore, Zhao Wenrui and his entourage actually entered the combat state when they were close to the point of the incident, but they were all among the strongest in the special affairs bureau, and the situation in front of them was not too complicated, so there was still a simple tacit understanding, and William's car Knight XV rushed to the forefront without saying a word, which was an attitude in itself.
Zhao Wenrui estimated that William was actually the same idea as Sosuke Gogami, counting on himself to be the wave chopping knife, and the other vehicles were paddling behind.
It's just that Sousuke Migami was not as calm as William, and he said goodbye to him, and opened the shield early, but the wrong way of thinking was counterattacked.
Also, William's control of the Elemental Well's transcendent wave is also average, and he may have some experience in dealing with it himself, but from the perspective of the pot head, there is some lack of consideration.
In fact, to resist the erosion of extraordinary energy, the spiritual force field of human beings is also very important.
Don't look at the 5 people with the driver in the armored explosion-proof car, the comprehensive mental force field is not comparable to a transcendent person. What's more, the spiritual force field of 5 different individuals cannot be calculated like 1+1+1, even devout believers with the same beliefs cannot be counted like that, and the Holy Spirit, who claims to think most in the same frequency as God, must be added up after a percentage (usually more than 80%), which is the difference between individuals, after all, there are no two independent wisdom souls in the universe that are exactly the same.
Therefore, the pot lids will be finished first.
He also couldn't see it, knowing that if he didn't give an order, 30 pot heads would die in vain, so he overstepped his responsibilities.
As a result, he was still killed by Sosuke Gogami, a typical incompetent, killing the three armies.
Sousuke Migami was still rushing towards the elemental well, faster than the car had run.
William, on the other hand, drove over, approaching the rear door and opening the door, and Sosuke Migami jumped into the car.
Zhao Wenrui naturally knew that William's approach was right, if there are tools, the power of the tools should be consumed first, and the power of people is the root of solving the problem, and it is best to use it on the blade.
However, when he saw that Sosuke Mijin was not pleasing to the eye, he couldn't help but slander in his heart: "Rancid comradeship." ”
The closer you get to the Elemental Well, the more powerful the Extraordinary Fluctuations become. Even from the invisible to the tangible, the golden and red light merges into a brilliant orange-gold color, distorting the air and forming rippling, diffusing waves that look very beautiful, but also extremely deadly.
Knight XV has become a sharp blade on a whetstone, and the light is splashing like a meteor speeding close to the ground.
Dongfeng iron armor is still the same as before, with an aqua blue electroplating layer, and the light is overflowing, which makes people feel cool at a glance.
In fact, Zhao Wenrui is not easy, after all, he is now 27% soul integrity, that is, 100%, he is just a demigod soul who has not been transformed for a long time, and as a human doppelganger, the starting point is low, and it is also eroded by the power of darkness.
Therefore, soul strength has always been his shortcoming. And now this kind of defensive force field, defensive energy can be paid for through special potions, but to control this energy, it has to be his own spiritual power.
finally made up for the lack of strength and technology, so that his performance was much better than William's, like William's seemingly brilliant appearance, but in fact, he was already at the end of the strong crossbow, and he didn't care about careful calculations.
Further on, Knight XV had changed from a meteor to a comet, like a torch against a gale, and the trail behind it was long and spectacular.
Dongfeng Iron Armor also has a magical style, with white gas trails and blue flying stars.
When they finally got closer, all three got out of the car.
William glanced at the Dongfeng Iron Armor, which was still in good condition, and asked Zhao Wenrui loudly: "Can you let Martha get into your car to avoid it?"
Martha is William's furnace, Zhao Wenrui glanced at the sluggish Martha, knew that William had made up for the demon just now, and said in his heart: "You are really driving and 'driving', you are a bad old man!"
The probe took Martha, wrapped it in an energy film, and then stuffed it into the Dongfeng Iron Armor.
In front of the situation, even a steel pocket can't help. Although Zhao Wenrui has invested a lot, the growth rate of Gangdou cannot be compared with him, and he is a recovery, not a growth.
"Thank you. William thanked him sincerely.
Zhao Wenrui saw that William was very sincere, obviously he had a relationship with his furnace, unlike a certain king, who stood there with an expression of just eaten, and did not forget to make a look.
"Owe me a good bottle of wine. Zhao Wenrui said.
It is difficult to repay the debt of favors, and he is giving William a preferential price.
William also understood what Zhao Wenrui meant, and said, "I really have a good bottle of wine there, from Lake Avalon. ”
Zhao Wenrui was disdainful in his heart: "What is so good about the foot washing water of the immortals in the lake? If you want to drink it, you can also drink the bath water of the Queen Mother of the West, such as Yaochi Immortal Wine." ”
Of course, this can be discussed later, get down to business first, he pointed to the elemental well, "If you let this eruption stop for three minutes, will you have a way to complete the seal?"
"Ninety seconds!" William affirmed.
Zhao Wenrui nodded, and walked towards the elemental well.
It's almost 100 meters, which is equivalent to going forward with the shock wave formed by the continuous explosion of 1 ton of TNT, and has the sense of standing in the eruption crater, of course, not to say sight and hearing, but to perceive.
Zhao Wenrui also had to get serious.
The blood content of an average adult is about 8% of his body weight, while Zhao Wenrui is 12%, which is more in line with the concept of 'water bag' than ordinary people.
Nowadays, 70% of the blood is precipitated, that is, the solute is removed from the solution and appears in a crystalline state, like sweat salts arrayed on the surface of the skin in the form of powder, as a medium for the flow of extraordinary energy.
On the surface, Zhao Wenrui's body was covered with a layer of blood light, the innermost was scarlet, and the outermost was white.
And at his feet, the red light took the form of a mace at the root of a tree, and with each step, it was deep into the earth to prevent it from being blown away.
In this way, he approached step by step against strong energy fluctuations, and when he was about to take the last few steps, he pulled out a short knife with a blade length of more than 20cm from his waist and swung it from the bottom up, from the armpit.
'Whew!'
The left arm was broken at the shoulder, leaving only a layer of leather attached to the fabric of the sleeve.
He calmly sheathed the short knife, then tore off his left arm, which was not bleeding from the wound, and threw it towards the elemental well.
The arm rolled in the air, and after the clothes were out of protection, they immediately turned into shattered fire butterflies in the energy impact, and the arm turned into a cloud of blood mist in the red light, and in an instant, it spread out into a blood curtain, and changed towards the elemental well.
The eruption of the elemental well was in a cone-shaped jet pattern with the main direction upward, covered by the blood curtain, and it was blown up at once, but the edge of the blood curtain fell completely downward, so it became a rapidly inflated blood-colored balloon.
Seeing that the blood curtain was getting thinner and thinner, it had become translucent, and the edges finally hit the ground, and then a red ring of light spread out on the ground, dyeing a large area of charred earth.
As the support stabilized, the thinned blood curtain also changed, shrinking in all directions, gradually forming angular crystals like crystal clusters, and growing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Elemental energy crystallization.
Zhao Wenrui used extraordinary power to condense from a plasma state to a solid state to suppress the eruption.
This is undoubtedly quite compelling, plasma state to gaseous state to liquid state, and then to solid state, can complete condensation so efficiently, the technology is not generally strong.
This is the special effect brought by the muscles and muscles that have been transformed by blood, and these muscles are already equivalent to the battery converter of extraordinary energy. It is through them that blood is synthesized and stored.
And this processing and storage, naturally, has an upper limit.
Zhao Wenrui roughly calculated the eruption amount per unit time of the element well, so that he had a three-minute estimate.
