At the mouth of the estuary at the back of the river and the sea, there is a river flowing eastward into the Haikou area, and the flow slows down after the sediment is deposited, and after more than 1,000 years of collapse and change, a huge estuarine sand island is gradually formed, which is called "Mingsha Island".

However, at this moment, before dawn broke, Mingsha Island, shrouded in boundless darkness, was like a giant turtle crouching on the other side of the land.

Around Mingsha Island, the river that once flowed thousands of years ago has long since dried up, and the silt of the riverbed has turned into a black and rotten swamp over the years, and a surging purple mist emits in the middle of the night.

In the night before dawn, the old man of the Aquila Clan, Wencent, stood at the mouth of the northern part of the river and sea, looking at Mingsha Island not far away, and the eagle's sharp eyes flashed with an uncertain light.

A week can consume a lot of people's patience, especially for these big people who are never used to waiting in the clouds.

Finally, the old man Vincent turned his head and looked at Abraham, the old man of the Celestial Dragon Clan, who was carrying his hands behind him and his expression unchanged at all, and he couldn't help but ask, "Can you be sure that this is this place?" ”

"Of course... Can't be sure. ”

The old man Abraham seems to be the youngest of the three old people who came to Beijing this time, and perhaps this is partly due to his unhurried mentality.

Of course, it's not just the mentality that he's strong about.

After saying the above sentence, he seemed to sense the impatience of the eagle-eyed old man Vincent beside him.

Abraham smiled quietly, his eyes fixed on the Mingsha Island shrouded in purple swamp gas from beginning to end, and nodded lightly, "Here... It's so similar. ”

"What is too similar?"

The old man of the Sky Eagle Clan, Wen Sente, couldn't help but be stunned.

He knew that among the Nine Families of Heaven and Man, the Celestial Dragon Clan, which held the absolute ruling power of the Nine Families before the outbreak of the War between Heaven and Man, was the most mysterious and long-standing, equivalent to the "Imperial Family" among Celestials.

Although the power in the hands of the Celestial Dragon Clan was handed over by the other eight families after the stalemate with the human race thousands of years ago, the foundation accumulated in those long years was completely unimaginable to other families.

Hearing Vincent's doubts, Abraham, the old man of the Celestial Dragon Clan, smiled silently and said, "With your status in the Aquila Clan, you should also know about the existence of the 'Holy Word', right?" ”

The Word?

The old man of the Sky Eagle Clan couldn't help but be shocked.

In the secrets of the Nine Families of Heaven and Man, it is said that each family has a parchment scroll, and the words on it are transcribed in the "holy words" that can only be mastered by the heads of the Nine Families of Heaven and Man.

It was a completely different language system, where did it come from, what did it record... To this day, even the children of the Nine Heavenly and Human Families have no idea about it.

Although Vincent has a lot of experience in the Aquila Clan, he has to risk himself alone to find an opportunity to break through in this hellish world.

Obviously, he was a loser in the battle for the head of the previous generation many years ago, and the loser had no right to know.

Old Abraham shook his head and said to Vincent, "I am a loser, too, but my father was so fond of me when I was young that he taught me when I was curious about the Sacred Word of the clan, for too long... But I can still remember a few bits and pieces. ”

Speaking of this, the old man Abraham paused, pointed to the "Mingsha Island" in front of him in the sandbar at the mouth of the sea and continued, "For example, this sand island, the person who transcribed the holy words does not know the name of this island, but from his description of this sand island, at least he has been to this hellish world, and everything started here. ”

Old man Vincent was still waiting for the next sentence, but Abraham's words came to an abrupt end.

He couldn't help frowning and asked, "That's where it all started?" What do you mean? ”

Abraham, the old man of the Celestial Dragons, shook his head slightly, "This is how it was transcribed in the parchment, and there are no more words than that, so I can only speculate that there must be something here that has had an important impact on this desolate and dead hell world..."

Vincent reacted a little, though he was not qualified to read the words on the parchment scrolls of the Aquila.

But after living for so many years, and having dabbled in some other secret scrolls about the hell world, it is natural to know very well that those alien demons have all kinds of strange abilities that are not at all on the periodic table of the talent sequence.

And the "River Styx" they are looking for can catalyze the ability level of those who have their abilities, and even catalyze the awakening of new abilities...

Then what Abraham called "something that has an important impact on the world" is really likely to be the "Styx" they have been looking for.

Thinking of this, the old man Vincent's face was also a little relieved, and then he couldn't help frowning slightly, "But we've been waiting here for almost a week, if we haven't waited for the next opening, once the boundary gate collapses out of control, we may never be able to go back." ”

"Never going back?"

The surging look on Abraham's face still did not change, and he asked rhetorically:

"If we don't find the 'River Styx' this time, then we will go back... How long can they live? ”

Hearing this, Vincent's old face suddenly changed slightly.

He thought of his own deteriorating body recently, and thought of the feeling that in recent years, when he dreamed back at midnight, he could even feel the feeling of death holding a rope and tightening his neck little by little...

I have to say, even if he once climbed the ninth rank when he was in the prime of life, how much strength does he still have today?

He is like this, because he enjoys the blood of human beings for a long time, and the same is true of Walker, the old man of the Celestial Snake Clan, who is older than him, otherwise how could Walker, who was also considered a powerful party in Shangjing back then, be assassinated by a young human hiding behind a mask in the official residence of the Prime Minister?

This time, if he couldn't break through the realm of the early stage of the ninth order and further extend his longevity, even if he returned to Shangjing after going out, he probably wouldn't have a few years to live.

Before dying, as his physical condition deteriorated, he might have to suffer all kinds of falling stones.

For the once infinite scenery of the old man Vincent, he never wanted to see such a scene in his life.

For a moment, his heart suddenly settled down, and he quietly stared at Mingsha Island before dawn.

"Wait." Abraham said quietly.

Vincent seemed to remember something, "I'm afraid we don't have enough supplies and food with us. ”

"Here... Isn't there 'food' everywhere? Abraham looked at him with a smile.

"What do you mean—" Vincent's face looked thoughtful.

Abraham didn't look at him again, but looked up at the gray sky above him.

The heavy black clouds pressed against his head, and he said as if to himself, "Don't forget, here... But hell. ”

......

When Higashinohara woke up in the faint morning light, the darkness around him gradually dissipated.

The dawn breaks and everything revives.

However, in this lost hellish world, this steel city that has been submerged in the long river of time is still dead and desolate at the moment, and the sound of rustling is gradually heard in the deserted camp.

Six hours have passed since Higashinohara made a huge disturbance in the classroom last night, and the time on the watch he carries with him is about 3 o'clock in the morning on March 21.

This is certainly not the time of this world.

Judging from the sky, it is at least six o'clock in this world now, and the breakfast restaurants with fried dough and tofu brains in this city countless years ago have already opened...

Thinking of this, Higashinohara suddenly missed the taste of fried dough tofu brain.

But he knew it was all fantasies.

Shaking his head and shaking these unrealistic thoughts out of his mind, Higashinohara's mind remembered the scene at the door of the classroom last night.

At that time, in full view of everyone, Kimura Shirakuto asked him what he found inside the door with a smile on his face.

That scene looked like Kimura Hakuto sent Higashinohara in to investigate the situation, not Higashinohara breaking through the other party's domain and forcibly breaking in.

At that time, Kimura Hakuto thought that Higashinohara would say something, but Higashimohara just said "nothing" and turned away in the eyes of everyone's puzzled and surprised, and even Kimura Hakutaku couldn't help but show an interested look on his face after being slightly stunned.

There will be no unveiling until the end.

Apparently, Kimura Hakutaku understood what Higashinohara meant - he wouldn't say anything, but he would continue to watch it all until he could see what he really wanted to do.

......

Retracting his thoughts, Higashinohara's attention returned to his mind, and he had just opened the second path of the [Nine Eyes and Six Paths] last night, the Shura Dao.

Judging from the description of this path, the Shura evil qi of the Shura Dao is a bit like a combination of the two major branches of the ability system of the mindfulness power and the spiritual system.

It can not only deter the enemy's spirit, but also hurt people against the enemy in the air.

In addition, there is another point that Shura's evil qi does not have in the mental power and spiritual system, that is, you can wrap it around your body to enhance your strength?

This is undoubtedly better than the [Blue Thunder. Thunder Ring] The blow after the charge is more durable.

It's just that at present, Higashinohara's proficiency in Shura's evil qi is only a beginner (0/100), and it can produce indiscriminate deterrence around the big surroundings, but if you want to wrap Shura's evil qi around your body to enhance your strength, you have to be at least a high-level proficiency state to do it.

Under normal circumstances, it takes a lot of energy and time for each trait of this purple epic talent ability to develop and improve. As far as the Shura Dao is concerned, even the most amazing and talented person may take two or three years to control to the extreme.

But Higashinohara is different.

The [Guilty Handbook] that was so dark in his mind opened again, and his gaze quickly slid from the title page to the source force point at the bottom.

The current source force point is 0.5,

Converts to 50 proficiency points.

【Confirm Conversion】

In the next second, Higashinohara put all these 50 proficiency points into the second lane without thinking. In the Shura Path, he was instantly raised to the primary level (50/100), and a magical realization suddenly surged in his heart.

For a moment, he felt as if he was alone in the vast battlefield, and the vast enemy army in front of him was all over the mountains, but the aura of Shura on his body suddenly rose to the sky, and the countless enemies in front of him were all so shocked that they couldn't move anymore...

Is this the primary use of Shura's evil energy?

Higashinohara took a deep breath.

The more he learned, the more he discovered the horror of his purple epic-level ability, should it be said that it was worthy of the purple epic-level ability ranked in talent sequence 16?

"King Kong is not bad Dazhai Master"

But at this moment, another question came to mind in Higashinohara's mind.

The [Nine Eyes and Six Paths] ranked in the 16th talent sequence is still like this, so what should the 11th to 15th rank in the front row be? Not to mention the orange world-destroying abilities in the top ten of the legendary talent sequence...

Thinking of this, the feeling of nothingness that Higashinohara had just felt alone and terrifying disappeared in an instant, and his mind instantly cleared up, and his attention returned to the personal attribute panel on the title page of the [Guilty Manual] again.

He has figured out that the energy level of innate ability and the corresponding panel attributes are "dynamically positively correlated", influencing each other and catalyzing each other.

The last time Higashinohara opened a second look. The ability to perceive after the line of death has been greatly improved, directly from 9.7 to 14.7.

This time open the second way. What about the Shura Path?

Higashinohara looked at the perception, and it was still 14.7 unchanged.

However, when his gaze fell on the will column, Higashinohara's eyes couldn't help but shrink slightly.

The will of the original 16...

This time it jumped to 26!

This is equivalent to completing a mission with a sin value of 10 stars.

But in fact, Higashinohara has never encountered anyone with a sin value of eight stars so far, let alone a ten-star one.

It seems that he made the right choice in the first place.

Specialize in one attribute first, try your best to improve your ability level and combat effectiveness, and wait until the actual combat ability comes up, whether it is more means to obtain attribute points or source power points, it is easier than ever.

If Higashinohara had tried to be a "hexagonal warrior" from the beginning, I'm afraid he would have been buried in the previous battles that he had to fight again and again...

At the same time, Higashinohara's face also showed a thoughtful look.

It seems that the purple epic ability [Nine Eyes and Six Paths] should correspond to the two attributes of [Perception] and [Will].

"Open your eyes" to increase your perception.

When "opening the way", the will is raised.

Seriously, his other abilities are all backward abilities through attributes.

Only the promotion of the purple epic ability [Nine Eyes and Six Paths] is too difficult to use attributes, and can only rely on the more rare source power points to improve.

However, in the past, it was very difficult to obtain [Source Power Points], and there was not even any way to obtain them, until they had the [Disintegration] skill, they began to dismantle the dropped natural abilities to obtain Source Power Points.

Now that he has come to this world, there are more channels to obtain source power points, but he has given Higashinohara the opportunity to use his ability level to improve his attributes like a normal ability.

So in this way, that is to say, as long as Higashinohara continues to promote his [Nine Eyes and Six Paths], even if he does not assign a few attribute points to [Perception] and [Will], he can continue to improve his five abilities of "Strength, Agility, Physique, Perception, and Will" in the direction of the seventh order.

Suddenly,

Higashinohara thought of a question.

If he really wanted all of these abilities to be raised to 70 points, that is, the seventh order.

Does the experience of breaking through 70 points with agility mean that he has to rely entirely on himself and comprehend four true realms in a row?

Thinking of this, Higashinohara's face couldn't help but become a little strange.

Although he doesn't like to be presumptuous, he doesn't think he is so talented...

Alas, fortunately, at present, except for the level where the physique card is at 69.7, other attributes are still far away.

At present, we can only take one step at a time.

It's just that in this world, the alien demon only provides the source power points of ability decomposition, and it does not have the sin value itself and cannot trigger the task, so it is naturally unable to obtain the attribute points of the sin value transformation.

It seems that at least for the next week, the attribute point aspect will be temporarily stalled.

Higashinohara is combing through the plans for the next week or so...

Unexpectedly, at this moment, in the quiet chaser camp where they had sorted out their housework after waking up in the morning and waiting for Kimura Hakuto to announce today's huntsman mission, there was a sharp stabbing sound without warning.

A strange black cloud suddenly appeared overhead, and the surroundings instantly fell into a disturbed noise.

"Enemy attack! Watch out for enemy attacks! ”

"What? Could it be the alien demon on the other side of the TV tower? ”

"It's not a demon! It's not a demon! ”

"It's... It's a pirate! ”

“......”

When Higashinohara heard the last sentence, he couldn't help but be stunned for two seconds, and for a moment he almost thought he was at sea.

Oh, he's not at sea.

He is in Jianghai, and the camp is also in the "Happy Primary School" on the edge of the Pujiang River, so it seems reasonable to be attacked by pirates... eggs.

Higashinohara reacted a little, but he didn't know if it was the pirate leaders from all over the world who came in when the border gate was opened last time, or the pirates who came in after them this time?

As he was thinking about this, a strange black cloud suddenly fell on the eerie black cloud above him.

It wasn't the usual raindrops, but black raindrops that crackled like countless bullets from heavy machine guns!

It crackled and fell to the ground, making a dull and heavy sound of "poof".

Boom!

Suddenly, I saw that a school building behind Higashinohara and others that had been weathered and eroded was overwhelmed, and in this terrifying "bullet rain" that fell from the sky, the eastern half of the building collapsed, and the remaining half immediately crumbled.

Higashinohara couldn't help but squint slightly when he saw this.

These pirates... They chose to attack their camp this morning.

So should he say, the comer is not good?

Or just in time?!

......
