Chapter 296: The Serpent That Surrounds the World
"I see...... Menek's eyes moved away from the surveillance screen in front of him, and he looked elsewhere with a somewhat melancholy expression, "The externalized spirit base, can only be said to be worthy of the master, it is indeed a very powerful thing." ”
His tone was a little heavy, and there was an indescribable depth in his eyes. And then......
"But it's a big difference, isn't it?" He burst into tears, as if he had missed something important. He gestured to himself and the red figure on the screen, "They were also chosen by the Heroic Spirit, but this can't be considered a type of person!" ”
Lu Shanyan on the side ignored his reaction and nodded thoughtfully: "With the body of the living, carrying the will of the heroic spirit, is this the so-called sub-servant...... However, according to Ming Fei, this seems to be very different from the sub-servant. ”
The so-called sub-followers, and the Heroic Spiritual Spirits that carry the wheel of inhibition in the body of a living person, can be regarded as the intervention or assistance from inhibition in a crisis of human reason. Of course, there are also artificially created for other purposes entirely.
Menek's state is somewhat similar to the former, but it is a fusion of the dead and the Heroic Spirit, which can be regarded as the same existence in essence.
And the posture that Chu Zihang showed at this moment was more like covering the spiritual base on his body than integrating with the Heroic Spirit. When he takes off his armor, he will turn back into the original Chu Zihang, who has a strong bloodline, but his posture is much worse than his current posture, but when he is dressed in armor, there is no doubt that he is a powerful servant who can ride a thousand.
Comparing the two, in terms of practicality or convenience, there is no doubt that the former is more convenient. Some of the advantages of the Heroic Spirits can only be brought into play by those who are also spirits.
Putting aside the individual differences of the Heroic Spirit, in contrast to the two, the former is like an all-in-one machine where all accessories are integrated into one and can work without operation and replacement. The other is a device that needs to deal with the bad environment and constantly replace external accessories. This analogy may be a bit inappropriate, but it seems that this alone shows which is better or worse.
But even so, with the current contrast, it is obvious that some people are still a little dissatisfied with their current self.
"It's not a question of convenience anymore!" Meneke put his hands on Lu Shanhiko's shoulders and looked him straight in the eyes, as if trying to make him understand what the problem really was.
Lu Shanyan leaned back slightly, as if he already knew what he was going to say. Really......
"It's just a matter of time whether it's strong or not! But whether handsome or not is already a matter of existing problems! ”
"I don't think it's useful to be handsome in a combat situation, but I think that too heavy armor will bring me unnecessary weight."
"Yamahiko, you don't understand what I mean at all!" Meneke clutched his chest in heartache.
Lu Shanyan pulled away the other hand he still pressed on his shoulder expressionlessly: "I didn't want to understand it at all." ”
His gaze returned to the terminal on one side, and the battle on the other side of the platform continued, but his afterglow unconsciously moved to another picture. He felt a little headache when he saw this, and in the picture, the huge dragon and the little boy sat together and watched the old-fashioned TV, and the picture was extremely harmonious.
……
Flames sliced in front of him, and Jörmungård threw away the scythe that was the only thing left in his hand. Born through the spirit of words, the incomparably sharp and hard, the Death Scythe, which can be regarded as an alchemy weapon, was so vulnerable in front of the opponent's Fang Tian Painting Halberd.
"Well, I'll admit I'm still a little contemptuous of you." Jermungard chanted as he stood still, and huge stone pillars rose and fell from the top and bottom of the tunnel, blocking the attacking red warriors.
But it was in vain, Fang Tian swept the halberd and drew a round line. Within the reach of the round line, the hard stone was easily shattered. The rubble was scattered everywhere, and in the dust, Jörmungard and the red warrior's inexplicably mechanical golden eyes met each other.
Just looking at this kind of performance, his current existence may be able to compare with most of the secondary species. From this point of view, when he entered here alone, he seemed to be alone and thin, but he actually had this strong support. And this dependence, even she seems to find it a little tricky.
The bright red tongue licked his lips, and the golden light in Jörmungad's eyes became even more vigorous: "Okay, then next...... I'm going to be serious too. ”
Maybe among all the dragon kings, she belongs to the class that is not good at fighting, but that doesn't mean that just the combination of a hybrid and an unknown power can embarrass her.
With his hands held high, Jörmungard flew into the air. Her demonic wings fluttered rhythmically, and her slender body danced with it. The swimming figure is like a celestial man flying in an ancient painting, even if he knows that what he will lead to is actually hell, he will be extremely yearning.
But Chu Zihang was not interested in stopping and watching, let alone letting her complete this seemingly dangerous speech. The release of speech does not have to be through words, and body movements can also be a way for the release of words. And with such a spirit, there is no doubt that the danger level is extremely high.
The huge Fang Tian Painting Halberd was tightly held by his hands, and the armor of his feet allowed him to easily leap into the air, aiming at the Dragon King in mid-air, and he wielded this dangerous weapon. The spirit of speech released by the action cannot be interrupted, and it is undoubtedly the wrong choice for the dragon king to choose to release the spirit of speech at this time.
But it was obviously impossible for the Dragon King not to know this, and the corners of her mouth in mid-air were slightly upturned, revealing a triumphant little expression.
The huge stone pillars poked out from the tunnels up and down and on both sides, hitting Chu Zihang's body almost at the same time. But with the protection of the outer armor, it is naturally impossible for him to be injured.
Four stone pillars surrounded him in the shape of a cross, and the hard front of the stone pillar was softening, and the stones that turned into fluid were quickly wrapping around his body, tightly imprisoning him like quicksand.
The Dragon King's mood seemed to be a little happier, and he looked at him who couldn't move and sneered lightly: "I'm a little annoyed that you're still using your previous knowledge of dragons to face me, but this kind of lightness seems to be quite useful to my side." ”
Chu Zihang glanced at her deeply through the goggles in front of him, and said in a calm tone: "This sentence is also returned to you." ”
Red gas permeated the red armor, and along with the rising heat, there was magic that was visible to the naked eye. The cage of the stone wall exploded from the inside, and the shattered stone was ejected in all directions with tremendous kinetic energy at a rapid speed.
The searchlights, which were originally affected by the battle and barely supported on both sides of the tunnel, were hit by broken stones, shook twice, and were completely scrapped.
Darkness struck, completely enveloping Chu Zihang. This darkness was no longer an obstacle to him now, and the environment inside the tunnel was clearly projected on the panels inside the armor. However, the dragon king, who was still sneering in mid-air, was no longer there.
In the silence, the rock walls on both sides seem to be struck by some sharp object, and it is easy to recall the sound of hearing arthropods such as centipedes or scorpions crawling in their ears or on the walls at nights when they should be asleep.
The sound of Suosuo made people feel a sense of unease in their hearts. But it is obvious that compared with the unknown existence around Chu Zihang, the arthropods mentioned earlier are really harmless cuties for humans and animals.
Holding the halberd, the armor of the head slowly rotates, and the armor-enhanced hearing captures the source of the sound, and projects the source of the sound and its movement onto the panel in front of it.
It's really a convenient function, with such an exclamation, Chu Zihang raised the halberd and stabbed fiercely at the source of the sound. But in the next second, his movements couldn't help but stop.
On the panel inside the armor, countless white dots are lit up that symbolize the source of the sound. The enhanced hearing also captured the movement of a large number of unknown creatures, whether it was up and down the tunnel, on either side, or in the depths of the empty tunnel, countless unsettling voices rang out at the same time. It looks like it is in the middle of a dense forest in the middle of summer, surrounded by countless cicadas.
Then the whole tunnel began to shake, and the rock walls on all four walls were falling off...... No, not falling off, but being crushed! Outside the rock wall, the countless fangs were easily torn apart!
The entire tunnel, along with Chu Zihang, seemed to be inside the body of a particularly huge being. Countless fangs swirled together, vowing to completely shatter the foreign body swallowed into the body.
The line of sight gradually narrowed away, and the bone snake, whose body was so huge that it could not see the edge, was churning in the depths of the ground. Its mouthparts are like alien creatures in science fiction movies, constantly swallowing and grinding, grinding the long and narrow tunnels that are incorporated into the body to slag.
The subway tunnel, which is several meters long in radius, is surrounded by its huge mouthparts and easily swallowed into its body. The bottomless body writhed, driving the dense fangs in the body to work. It wriggles like the body of a twisted god in a series of sci-fi, and its indescribable appearance can make people go crazy just by looking at it.
But at a certain moment, the wriggling bone snake seemed to be stuck, and the position of the abdomen stopped running, and it shook inexplicably as if the machine was malfunctioning. The next moment, the huge halberd broke through the body of the bone snake, and the red warrior jumped out with it.
The fire flickered, and he descended with a rising flame. The halberd waved, and the scale armor of the bone snake, which was originally hard but not enough to see in front of Fang Tian's halberd, was easily broken. Dragging the halberd on the bone snake's body moved quickly, the shattered bones falling with flames, illuminating the extremely dark space around them.
The halberd that had been pulled out swung down again, and the terrifying head of the bone snake shattered, and the broken bones flew everywhere. There seemed to be bones growing from the giant bone serpent, as if it wanted to replace the destroyed scale armor, but the flames attached to the halberd also ignited the new bones and spread the fire from within the bone snake.
Gently falling on the ground in front of him, the bone snake behind it gradually receded with the flames in its body, and disappeared from view after a while. Chu Zihang chased a few steps forward, but the speed at which the bone snake retreated was a little inconsistent with its bulky appearance, even with the flames as a guide, the burning bone snake quickly lost its trace.
Stopping, Chu Zihang, who was in the armor, looked at the surrounding scenery. The bone snake seemed to advance some distance after swallowing him inside, and the place he was in now was no longer a familiar tunnel.
The space outside was large and dark, so big that he couldn't see it all with his eyes, and the darkness that couldn't be seen through was shrouded in the vicinity, and there seemed to be something flowing in the darkness. But he didn't find anything in his perception, and even the bone snake that had been walking away before was completely motionless. The darkness that shrouded the neighborhood seemed to have the ability to isolate perception.
The flames rekindled, illuminating a bit of space around them, but there was still no way to penetrate the darkness. The halberd was set up in front of him, guarding against a possible sneak attack, and Chu Zihang, who had taken two steps forward, saw a big guy.
The dragon that had been dead for a long time seemed to have been discarded at random, and was thrown into a pile of rubble like a small animal that had died miserably on the side of the road. Glowing stones were piled up on him haphazardly, like an extremely irregular tomb.
Looking at the giant dragon in front of him, which was supposed to take off, Chu Zihang's heart had an inexplicable feeling. Obviously, they should be enemies who are hostile to each other and never die, but when I saw the dragon that was used as a stand-in by the dragon king Jörmungader crawl towards another dragon that was also used as a stand-in for the dragon king, that inexplicable feeling came up for the first time.
Something seemed to be poking out in the surrounding darkness, like a tongue, and like a tentacle that silently wrapped around the exposed bones of the dragon's lower body, and ignored Chu Zihang on the side, dragging the dragon's corpse back quickly.
Chu Zihang had already discovered it when the tentacle poked out, he quickly grabbed the horns of the dead dragon, jumped on the dragon's body, and quickly jumped on the tentacles that poked out of the darkness again, and quickly stretched out to the tentacles, which was the place where the dragon king Yermungader was hiding.
The red warrior galloped through the darkness, the flames beside him illuminating the space in a small area. Although this tentacle is thick, it is really not an easy road to take, but Chu Zihang's movements are very steady, without the slightest panic. No matter how rugged the road is, it is no longer any problem for him now.
Wielding the halberd to smash a few tentacles that came at him, there seemed to be a glimmer of light in front of him. It was as if he had passed through an invisible barrier, and the long-lost light reappeared in his field of vision.
Without having time to look around, he casually swung his halberd to cut off the tentacles beneath him. Whatever the dragon king Jörmungadr needs the dragon's corpse for, just don't let her get it.
Gently landing on a platform, Chu Zihang raised his head and observed the outside environment through the visor again. It was like a sea in the vicinity, a sea with no edges in sight, no depth in sight, and no ripples on the surface. The platform beneath him seemed to be the ruins of a fallen building, and the corner of the sea felt familiar.
The ethereal singing voice came from behind him, and Chu Zihang, who immediately turned around, saw the girl sitting on the edge of the platform behind him, playing barefoot in the water.
The silky black hair fell, covering the plain white body without a strand, and Natsumi, who was humming a song and stepping on water, turned his head and showed him a sweet smile. A proper wind blew on the surface of the sea, and blew the girl's hair, revealing the smooth, somewhat piercing skin underneath.
"Do you know what it's like to have a cat that you've had for many years to be snatched away by someone else?" She asked, her transparent eyes looking into the distance. The calm surface of the sea was reflected in her childlike holes, reflecting enough light to make anyone lose their minds and sink into it. The so-called whole world in the eyes is probably like that.
The picture of the two girls seemed to flash in his mind, and Chu Zihang approached silently, looking at the girl waiting for him to answer. Waving the halberd in his hand, he replied with this.
The girl's figure dissipated in the wind like the passing sand, the calm lake rippled, and the voice of the dragon king sounded in the sky and water: "A cat keeper who has not been bitten by a cat or cat will probably not have a complete life as a cat raiser." ”
"Your words seem to be too much." Chu Zihang looked at the sea, where a huge shadow was approaching.
"Really? Maybe there's no need to continue fighting. "Huge waves rose on the calm surface of the sea, and shadows that obscured the sky and the sun peeked out of the sea and continued to stretch upward.
In the invisible sky, the voice of the Dragon King came: "In the language of the game, this is the so-called second stage. Of course, it's the final stage. ”
Above the sea, it is like a giant python that can surround the world in mythology, and it is lowering its head and looking directly at the small figure in front of it.
