Chapter 981: Divine Messenger (2)
Since the Mother of Herestel specially explained to Ryan, then Ryan also had to show his attitude on the spot, he did not continue to dwell on this topic, but directly skipped to ask the most critical part of the whole matter: "Since you plan to use the oracle to extend your life, then why do you have to come to this place? It seems that it is safer and more convenient to say in Zernimor, right?"
"If I could perform this ritual anytime, anywhere, then there would be no more fallen kings in this world. When the Mother of Herestel heard Ryan's question, she immediately understood his choice, so she explained: "This ritual is to condense some of my divine thoughts and inject them into the body of the oracle, but don't forget that the oracle itself also has life and soul, and I am not a real god, so I must use many specific materials to help. Everything else was ready, but what was missing the most at the moment was the soul of a demigod king. β
"The soul of a demigod king? I heard you right, do you think our team can defeat a demigod king head-on, and also succeed in obtaining his soul after death?" Ryan shouted in shock, which was more shocking than all the words he had heard before, if this was the real goal of the Mother of Herest, then Ryan would never continue to follow her on the adventure, this was not a matter of trust, it was simply an act of self-determination.
"You heard me right, and I didn't say it wrong!" Herestrian's mother laughed, it was the first time she had seen Ryan lose his temper like this, and after laughing, Herist's housemother said: "Even if my body is here in person, at most it is to defeat such an opponent, it is impossible to capture the soul, but since I have spent so much time arranging and planning the whole process, I naturally will not set an impossible task." In fact, the demonic beast we are about to face is an ancient demon dragon that has lived for about a million years, and its strength has dropped greatly for some reason, and it has been trapped in this foggy cave for tens of thousands of years and is unable to break free, which gives us hope to achieve our goal. β
"Ancient Demon Dragon, what is that?" Faras asked, "We've only heard of the Ancient Red Dragon, but never the Ancient Demon Dragon, is there anything related to them?"
"Relationship, it's very simple, just look at me and Aledia. The Herist Mother did not explain word by word, but used a very vivid metaphor to give Faras the answer, and then the Heristel Mother added: "The so-called primeval and ancient times are nothing more than the age of existence. The gods of ancient times were as innumerable as the stars in the sky, and at that time, dragons and high-level demons could easily fight against the so-called gods, and in the ancient times, even I couldn't find any valid records, even if it was just a few legends, maybe all intelligent creatures were just monsters struggling to survive by instinct in the primeval era. β
"There are five types of dragons, black, red, blue, green, and white, among which the black dragon lives the oldest and the least numbered. There is an unfounded claim that the reason why there are gods is completely the product of those adult black dragons in the primeval era to pass the boring time, of course, these things can be listened to casually, if you want to be an archaeologist, you can also wait for us to kill the primeval black dragon, and then slowly go to its soul to verify. Mistress Heriot deliberately ended with a joke when she said this, and her efforts succeeded in softening the stiffness of the previous remarks.
"Forget it, I don't care much about this kind of thing, we humans still wanted the elves to learn magic, but when I learned and released the fireball technique, it seems that I don't need to remember it first and then feel emotional, and even many of the magic spells of our humans now are very different from those spells that the elves are using. Ryan waved his hand and said in a self-deprecating tone: "Speaking of this attitude seems to be a bit forgetful, but all this must be based on the premise of survival, my time is limited, let's focus on improving my strength first." β
"That's right, in fact, the magic mastered by the dark elves has not been accumulated after many years of slow improvement, and I have to explore the source of the magic, but I'm afraid that the seven major races of the other world can't explain it at all now. The Heristel mistress nodded in agreement with Ryan's statement, and then she turned the topic back: "We have limited time, let's take care of the injured primeval black dragon first, its lifespan is so long, it is no less than those gods with incomparably large godheads, and with its soul as a medium, I am afraid that the effect is better than that of the soul of the demigod monarch who is slightly weaker." If this primeval black dragon still maintains its original peak strength, then I don't even dare to think about this plan, but after so many years, this primeval black dragon has been sleeping under the misty cave, and it is clear that it is a great loss of strength, I forcibly launched three detections with prophecy magic, and at the cost of consuming my own hundreds of years of life, I confirmed that the strength that the ancient demon dragon can have at present, which is only about fifty percent of the total strength of my body. β
"Don't underestimate the number of fifty percent, you must know that this is an old antique that has lived for millions of years, and its experience coupled with the strong body of the dragon clan against the sky can definitely exert stronger combat power. The Herestian mistress said: "My current doppelganger only inherits thirty percent of the power of the body, and it is just self-protection in front of the other party, so I must use the strength of the two of you Ryan and Faras, when the two of you fight together, the strength that can be exerted should be far more than when you fight separately, right?
Hearing this question from the Mother of Herest, Ryan was silent for a moment, and then said, "I haven't seen you fight with all your might, so the estimated value must be very different. But if you measure it by your current clone, you can probably join forces to protect yourself. After all, for the use of pseudo-divine powers, as well as the mastery of spatial magic skills, I have put in too little time and energy. β
Ryan's answer made the Heristl Mother very satisfied, she believed that even if Ryan had reservations, it should be very limited, so that when facing the Ancient Demon Dragon, the Heristl Mother of the Mother of Herestl can exert about fifty percent or less of the combat power of her body, which is almost consistent with the previous calculation of the demigod king, with such combat power against the sleeping Ancient Demon Dragon, as long as the quick battle does not give the opponent a chance to gamble, the odds are still very good, although inviting other demigod kings to help will greatly increase the odds of victory, but the Herestel master mother and the invited monarch must be secretly suspicious of each other, lest one of them accidentally be seized by his peers to plot against him, and in that case, he will not be able to exert the strength of the strong team.
This situation is difficult to happen to the Ryan couple, the life span of the Heriot master mother has entered the aging period, if it is said that devouring a demigod monarch may also help to improve the strength, but no matter how strong the actual combat power of Ryan and Farath is, after all, they are only two high-level realm powerhouses, and their souls are not of much use to the Heristl master mother, and it is likely that it is not as good as devouring advanced realm powerhouses such as MehZulu and Bairuita. Even if the Heristan mistress is hungry and sets a shocking trap to deal with the Ryan couple, the latter's strength also gives them a certain ability to protect themselves, and in the end, losing both will only cheapen the other demigod kings in vain, and the Heristl mistress will not do this kind of stupid thing that relatives hate enemies quickly.
Of course, the Heristt housemother did not fail to calculate the possibility that the Ryan couple took advantage of their own travel alone to join forces to deal with this clone with the strength of the body of thirty percent, but in terms of strength, it was the doppelganger of the Heristel housemother who had the advantage, and her body was still staying in Zernimo, if the Ryan couple had any bad thoughts, they would immediately bear the endless pursuit of the body, which was a choice that was completely worth the loss for the Ryan couple who were steadily growing in strength and vaguely saw the opportunity to step into the realm of demigodsγ
These interlocking constraints allow the Heristt housemother and the Ryan couple to cooperate closely and sincerely, the only concern is the tacit understanding of the three of them when they join forces, which the Heristt housemother has naturally taken into account, she has selflessly taught Ryan space magic skills before, how can it not be prepared in advance for the upcoming battle, but also a deposit for the Ryan couple's adventure in advance.
In order to give full play to the combat power of the three people, the Heristt housemother did not rush forward, but rested on the spot for several days, in addition to telling the Ryan couple the news she had about the ancient demon dragon every day, she kept practicing with the Ryan couple to develop some tacit understanding as soon as possible. In these days, Boyardinas has unknowingly become a marginal person, although she is also a powerhouse in the field, but she was completely excluded from the list of battles by the Heristt housemother, although Boyardinas also felt shameless, but also knew that with her current strength, even if she fought together, she could only drag down her companions, so she was very wise to keep silent and do another task assigned to her by her mother: to protect the safety of those dark elf maids during the battle of the three of Herist's housemothers. If the Heristan Mother in front of them had worked so hard to kill the primeval demon dragon, and those maids in the back had been eaten as food by the realm monsters passing by, this adventure of the Heristan Mother would probably have become a laughing stock in the other world forever.
