Chapter 101: True Lies
Originally, the Zerg only had a final brood, and there was no master.
The brood is the leader!
In the war of the Quaternary Age, the Zerg Ultimate Brood was defeated and fled, and when it reappeared, it became even more powerful, not to mention, the most shocking thing was that it even had a strong spiritual power.
The Zerg have always been known for their strong flesh/body, and suddenly they have a spiritual ability, and it is a terrifying spiritual ability, which naturally makes the Supreme Council suspicious.
As the war continued, the Supreme Council found that not only the brood had become stronger, but the IQ of the entire Zerg had grown rapidly.
More Zerg troops, more Zerg tactics, more targeted attacks, more knowledge of the city!
All of this fully shows that a more powerful and terrifying existence has emerged among the Zerg, and the Supreme Council calls it dominant.
And in the subsequent battles, they also confirmed this fact.
The Juggernaut is in the final brood.
However, no one knows who the Juggernaut is and how it appeared, and people have not even seen it before, even if its existence is replicated through the system, due to the limited rules, the Supreme Council cannot personally intervene, and can only rely on adventurers to unravel its mystery, but no one has succeeded.
Although it did not succeed, the Supreme Council guessed based on the situation at the time that the so-called Zerg master was probably a Quarez who had secretly survived the rebellion war in the Quaternary Age.
Only the Quarez people can understand the city so well, can understand the system so well, can have such a powerful spiritual coercion, and can use their own strength to create new varieties for the Zerg in the dream space of the barren land outside the city.
But this is only speculation after all, and in order to confirm the facts, the Supreme Council has also used various methods to try to lift the veil of mystery of dominance.
In the case of Sargeras, Shen Yi is actually not the first.
It's just that it wasn't until today that Shen Yi completed this task!
Sargeras's dark revenge, the terrifying self-detonation, finally exposes the true face that Querez has been hiding.
Even Shen Yi, who had never seen a Quarez person, guessed at a glance that this was a Quarez person, let alone the Supreme Council he had ever seen?
"What do the Quarez people look like?" After listening to Lan Yan Shen Yi's explanation, everyone finally suddenly realized, and asked Shen Yi gently at this moment.
"A body of energy, like water, the smoke is not actually fog, it may be an external part of its body. Shen Yi replied: "What do you look like...... It's a bit like a protoss, except it doesn't have that majestic armor. ”
"That's right. Lan Yan also said: "The Quarez people have always felt that they are the Sarnaga people who created the gods, but they look more like the gods created by the gods, with strong mental power and the ability to communicate with the heart, but the physical body is weak. ”
"Why does it sound like it's really StarCraft, now there are three clans of people, insects and gods, what about Sarnagar? If the Quarez people are not Sarnagar, then who are?" Zhou Yiyu asked.
"I don't know. Lan Yan shook his head: "Maybe it's this space, maybe it's the owner of this space, or maybe it's ...... That's the girl. ”
"That girl appeared later than the adventurer, and she wasn't Sarnagar. Hong Lang pouted.
Shen Yi immediately said: "That's not necessarily...... Qian Zhongshu said that the law of evolution is that the last comes first, and there are inorganic matter and then organic matter in the world, first plants and then air, first single-celled organisms and then animals, and finally human beings. So if there is a God in the world, then he must have appeared after mankind. Therefore, it may not be unreasonable for Sarnaga to appear after the three tribes. From a game perspective, Blizzard must have designed three races first and then added backgrounds last. ”
"......" everyone was speechless together.
King Kong smiled: "This is a quibble, the game is not the Zerg and the Human Race created by the Protoss. ”
"Bloody City isn't StarCraft either. Shen Yi spread his hands: "After all, all this is just an appearance, a coincidence, not a reality." The truth is that the great Protoss is now leaving a light pole, parasitic to the survival of the Zerg, humans and the Zerg love and kill each other, and the survival of the universe depends on the two races of humans and insects...... What a great war, and all of us are saviors. ”
Hong Lang muttered, "I like that. ”
Lan Yan also smiled: "Then now that you have understood all this, you shouldn't have any misunderstandings and dissatisfaction with the Supreme Council, right?"
Shen Yi replied: "Of course, Lord Lan Yan, you have explained everything, how can I still have an opinion on the council...... Oh no, I didn't have a problem with the council before!"
Lan Yan glared at him angrily.
He knew that Shen Yi would not admit that he was dissatisfied with the Supreme Council no matter what, but this was not forced, anyway, Shen Yi was an understanding person, as long as he could understand the helplessness of the Supreme Council.
At this moment, Lan Yan said: "In this case, let's tell you a few more things." You should have noticed that the rewards have changed this time, right?"
"Yes. Shen Yi nodded, and at the mention of the reward, Shen Yi's expression immediately became serious.
He had been abused by the master before, and if he wanted to win, he would point to this gain, he didn't want to hear anything from Lan Yan's mouth, "You cheated too hard this time, you have to deduct half of the reward" or something like that.
Fortunately, Lan Yan finally didn't say that, after all, before the mission, the Supreme Council knew that Shen Yi and they must have made a lot of money this time.
Limiting benefits is a necessity of the principle of balance, not of the Supreme Council, and as long as it is complied with, the metropolis will not interfere - with the exception of hostility to the Supreme Council, of course.
Lan Yan said: "The change in income rewards is because the Supreme Council has strengthened its control over the system, and over the years, the Supreme Council has not given up on the system. ”
"Understandably, it seems that the parliament has already achieved some results. Shen Yi said with a smile.
The adventurers are busy raiding the quest world, the guardians are busy raiding the zerg, and the Supreme Council is busy raiding the strategy system, and no one is idle.
However, the Supreme Council was able to suddenly make a breakthrough at this time, and it was probably related to the imperfect rule path that the Broken Blade Team got last time, otherwise it would not have been such a coincidence.
"Yes, the modification of the system's reward principle is the performance of the breakthrough, thanks to your help last time. Lan Yan also said happily, it was really related to the prop: "After completing the breakthrough, the Supreme Council once again raised the upper limit of combat power and canceled some restrictions. ”
"Oh, that's a good thing!" everyone was excited at the same time.
The combat effectiveness of the bloody city has also increased step by step with the development of time and the system. Although in heaven and hell, the so-called ancestral gods and demons are the strongest, but in the real city, the ancestors are all scum. The demon god of the first era may not be stronger than the current demon king, and the third age does not even have an artifact, but it is the invention of the subsystem, which can only show that the system at that time is weak enough!
Now that there is a new promotion and a new breakthrough, it means that everyone's combat effectiveness can be further developed, and at this moment Hong Lang has asked: "Then there are some breakthroughs?"
"One: Rank artifacts. The previous artifacts were too messy, but the same artifacts were different in height, but this time they can be graded. Artifacts start with sub-artifacts, move up to low-level artifacts, medium-level artifacts, high-level artifacts, and final-level artifacts. It also provides more artifact synthesis opportunities. ”
"Great!" everyone shouted at the same time, they knew why Lan Yan had told them this.
This time, the Broken Blade team got a lot of artifacts, and it was too much of a loss to sell them, and there was a lack of opportunity to deal with them - the last time the Blue Bird helped Shen Yi synthesize, it was an exchange condition for Shen Yi to hand in the rule props rather than a system function.
Now that Bloody City has officially opened artifact-level synthesis, it is undoubtedly great news for the Broken Blade team.
"Two: Open skill adjustments. Lan Yan continued: "The so-called skill adjustment, that is, adventurers have one more way to deal with some skills that they can't use: transfer!"
Due to environmental pressures, when adventurers learn skills, they often find out what skills they have learned before they say anything in order to temporarily enhance themselves.
For example, Shen Yi's spiritual exploration, despicable medical skills, Hong Lang's tyranny, King Kong's Finger of Emptiness, Zhou Yiyu's Demon Blessing Body are all like this, and there are some skills that were useful at the time and useless later, such as the fat man's reflection wave.
It's a pity that these skills are discarded, left useless, and become chicken ribs.
Shen Yi is okay, the two current skills have always been useful, and most adventurers almost have the skills to be beaten into the cold palace, and these skills are useless to themselves, but they may not be useless to others.
That's why, in order to further enhance the strength of adventurers, the Supreme Council has introduced the Skill Transfer Scroll.
This skill scroll service allows adventurers to transfer skills to each other, and the skills of different grades correspond to the skills of different levels, and the price is one-tenth and one-fifth of the price of standard skills. A low-level scroll with a tenth-price price is automatically reduced to one level after the skill is transferred. One-fifth are premium scrolls, which can be reserved for level transfer.
Since adventurers can freely choose to use high-level or low-level scrolls according to their own skills, the convenience is extremely high, and the price is not too expensive, which shows that the Supreme Council is still supportive of improving the strength of adventurers.
Perhaps it can also be considered that the Zerg are becoming more and more difficult to deal with now, and more Guardians are urgently needed to join.
"That's great. Shen Yi said happily.
"The artifact is synthesized in the temple, and sacrifices are needed, I see that you have obtained a lot of sacrifices this time, but there are also many artifacts, and it may not be enough, while the news has not spread yet, hurry up and buy some." Skill transfer scrolls are available in the shop, so you can buy them directly. There's also bad news for you. ”
"What?"
"You've acquired the blood and soul of Sargeras, right?"
Shen Yi's heart tightened: "There won't be any problems, right?"
"How can it be okay?" Lan Yan sighed: "Sargeras was originally the boss of the twentieth layer, but now his strength has skyrocketed to the thirty-fifth layer. But you know, the existence of heaven and hell is only a background in itself, a world without tasks, so there can be no change. ”
Shen Yi understood: "Are you saying that this trip to hell will not have any changes to the background, and Sargeras will still only be the boss of the twentieth layer in the background, so the divine soul and bloodline we obtained from the Burning Legion will also be lowered to the standard of the twentieth layer of demon gods?"
"Yes. ”
"Damn, how can this work?" Hong Lang immediately shouted.
That's right, Sargeras is indeed only the boss of the twentieth layer of hell, there is no problem if you want to set him, but the problem is that when Lao Tzu dealt with him, he was a thirty-fifth layer level of strength, where is this weakening, where is the balance principle?
The only two gods whose strength has increased due to the invasion of the Burning Legion are Sargeras and Manolos, and the others, such as the Dragon Ancestor and Rose, have their own strength that has not changed, so there is no need to reduce it. But even so, lowering Sargeras's Soul and Bloodline is unacceptable, and this is a super awesome guy - even if he is vulnerable to the Juggernaut.
Lan Yan smiled bitterly: "This is also a matter of no choice, the bloodline of Sargeras has its limit, and what you have obtained has exceeded this limit, once it is used, it will form a special existence, which will affect the system." Of course, the Supreme Council will compensate you for this, which is also in line with the principle of balance. ”
He knows Shen Yi very well now, and if he wants to rob Shen Yi's benefits, it's no problem, as long as he gives him the corresponding benefits.
Sure enough, Shen Yi smiled and said, "How can you compensate for it?" This is a thirty-fifth-level divine soul and bloodline, and I still expect to summon Sargeras and Manolos when I fight the Juggernaut." ”
Lan Yan knew that Shen Yi was deliberately exaggerating the role of Sargeras, and said with a smile: "You don't have to bluff, no matter how strong Sargeras's bloodline is, you can't use it, after all, you already have your own bloodline." However, when you lower it, the High Council can help you fuse. ”
"That doesn't sound too bad. Shen Yi nodded.
Indeed, no matter how strong the Sargeras bloodline is, it is useless if he can't use it, if he can be fused into the original bloodline at the cost of reducing his strength, it is completely acceptable, the question is how to reduce it.
Shen Yi said: "I hope to reduce the quantity and ensure the quality. ”
Sargeras's original bloodline skills are also twelve, there is no berserk form, four skills per form, and the power of the skill is reduced.
For Shen Yi, they have now reached the stage of reducing quantity and increasing quality.
Lan Yan immediately said: "It definitely can't be the highest level, but it's still okay to have a limited improvement, but in this case, there will be more skills to be reduced." ”
"Then it depends on how much you subtract, and it's better to specify. ”
"That requires extra effort. ”
"Money is not an issue. "Those who have money have a lot of money.
Lan Yan was helpless: "Okay, but the demon bloodline can only be fused with the demon bloodline, so you here, only Zhou Yiyu, Luo Hao, Hong Lang, and Zhou Lin can fuse the bloodline of Sargeras, you choose one yourself, and let him go to the temple for bloodline fusion after returning to the city." ”
"Just the waves. Shen Yi replied without thinking.
Langqiu's bloodline is now the worst of the six, and after transforming into a Demon God Slayer, Hong Lang now almost does not use skills, and only relies on improved attacks to fight. Being able to fuse the bloodline of Sargeras will undoubtedly further enhance Hong Lang's strength.
Hearing this at this moment, Hong Lang laughed, flipped his wrist, and a soul of killing the demon god was already in his hand: "I got it when I was killing hell, can I fuse it together?"
"If you have money, you can do it. Lan Yan rolled her eyes and began to feel weak.
The others were surprised and asked gently, "There is no god trapping net, no Megatron, no energy net, how did you get it?"
Hong Lang grinned: "Beat." ”
“......”
Shen Yi patted Hong Lang: "No matter what else, the flame light must be in hand." The path of doom may be able to have a bonus effect with your Void Blade, if you can ask for it, and if you want it, there is also the body of the devil, this must be. Except for these three, you look at the others...... It is estimated that there will not be a fourth. ”
For Hong Lang, it is indeed these three skills that are most suitable for him, and other group battle skills, Shen Yi is not uncommon, and the group battle effect of the battleship is much stronger than the skill.
After the matter was discussed, Lan Yan left quickly, and the system automatically began to settle for Shen Yi and them.
In fact, there is nothing to knot, Shen Yi and their mission income are mainly obtained through killing, and now they are all in the heraldic space.
The rewards of the main quest are not much, Hong Lang is gentle on their side, and after the task of 54,000 points per person is completed, they don't work hard, and their minds are focused on other aspects.
It was Shen Yi who expropriated in the central city and made a lot of money, and the three parties combined had exceeded two million.
In terms of contribution, on the contrary, although I earned more and spent more, the result was not only not a high ranking, but even lower than the average, but some points were deducted.
Fortunately, the Broken Blade team doesn't care about deducting points, they want all kinds of skills brought by contributions, not points.
Therefore, the system finally settled them with more than 2 million points, which is not much different from the previous estimate.
In terms of special points, Zhou Yiyu withdrew on the fifteenth floor, Shen Yi left on the thirty-sixth floor, and the others left on the thirty-fifth floor, adding up to nearly 60,000 special points.
Although the contribution is not the highest, the system still rates the Broken Blade team as perfect, so there is also a perfect reward, Shen Yi asked for a armor with damage weakening at the cost of reducing one level, and then lost it in the coat of arms without looking at it - that thing is used to smash.
All in all, the rewards of the system are actually not small, but in the eyes of the Broken Blade team, which has already made a fortune, it is not worth mentioning, and what really makes them benefit is the harvest of the mission world itself.
As for Sargeras, due to the dominance of the war, coupled with the modification of the system, he only gave the most basic bloodline and the ring.
Leaving the space and returning to the city, M7 Weina and the others were already waiting for them.
Shen Yi chatted with them for a while, and roughly chatted about the encounter on the thirty-sixth floor, but he didn't say the true face of the master, only that he confirmed the battle method between the master and the final brood, and there was already a way to deal with it.
After returning the borrowed equipment, Shen Yi gave them the Manolos Divine Soul, which was regarded as the rent of the equipment they borrowed, so that everyone could sell it for a penny, and the magic ring was bought at a high price after being seen by Lao Meng.
Since they had just returned, there were still too many things to deal with - the Broken Blade team was divided into four teams, and each team was divided into equipment, so everyone was in a hurry to sell equipment, so they went to deal with affairs separately first.
As soon as he returned to the villa, Shen Yi made a list of equipment to be sold. He didn't dare to release them all at once, for fear of causing the price to fall, so he could only hang ten pieces first, thinking that this was too slow, so he simply asked the summoned soldiers to go to the low-difficulty area with equipment to sell, and sent a message to buy sacrifices.
After completing these things, Shen Yi went to take a shower comfortably, lying motionless in the large bathtub, looking at the ceiling, the scene of the Zerg master fighting against himself had resurfaced in his mind.
The excitement of that death was so great that he could see his skull crack almost as soon as he closed his eyes. Countless images flashed back in Shen Yi's mind, and the three-dimensional image memory made everything reflected in his mind so real, as if he was watching a replay.
Suddenly, a picture flashed through Shen Yi's mind.
Shen Yi sat up.
He rushed into the hall wrapped in a bathrobe: "Zeus, play the battle video!"
A curtain of light was raised, and the scene of the thirty-six layers of hell reappeared.
"Speed!" Shen Yi said in a deep voice.
The screen spun rapidly until Shen Yi flew out of the brood, and Shen Yi shouted: "Go back three seconds, play at one-tenth speed!"
The picture began to slow down, moving forward with difficulty one by one, until Shen Yi raised his hand: "Stop!"
The picture freezes, staying at the moment when the juggernaut rushes out.
Shen Yi pointed to a point in the picture: "Ten times magnification!"
The picture was enlarged, and Shen Yi looked carefully at the magnifying point, and his eyes were about to pop out.
"One square forward!" Shen Yi said in a trembling voice.
The picture moved slowly, and Shen Yi stared at the picture, his face becoming more and more ugly.
He muttered under his breath, "!"
"What's wrong?" a gentle voice suddenly sounded at the door.
Shen Yi waved his hand, and the picture disappeared.
Gently walked over, hugged Shen Yi from behind, and said softly, "Did you find something again?"
"Don't ask. Shen Yi smiled bitterly.
"Did Lan Yan deceive us?" The woman shrewdly realized that the only thing that could keep Shen Yi silent was something related to the Domination, the city, and the Supreme Council.
"Nope. Shen Yi shook his head: "He didn't lie to us. ”
"What about you?"
Shen Yi patted the back of his gentle hand, sighed and said, "If a person doesn't lie, it doesn't mean that what he says must be the truth, and it doesn't mean that what he says is everything!"
