499 The Shadow of the Black King, the Red Tide, the Hatching Fenrir
After listening to Lu Mingze's explanation, Su Mo had a clue about the completion of the path to the gods and the improvement of dragon blood.
As long as he crosses this ladder, his strength can officially reach the Dragon King level and advance towards the God Domain level.
Whether it is Odin or the Black King, they are at least enemies at the level of the God Domain.
"The mastery of the creation of life can be carried out after Xia Mi devours the authority."
Su Mo glanced at the girl beside him, and then turned his gaze to Lu Mingze.
"However, on the conceptual armament side, I still need your help."
During the time when Xia Mi was obsessed with Su Mo, even Xia Mi was able to devour the power of Constantine and perfect the authority of the fire god Surtr, and Su Mo naturally did not stand still.
With the sharing of masks, Su Mo quickly became familiar with the skill of space development, and successfully simulated it with his own speech spirit.
And after that, under the hand-in-hand teaching of Teacher Xia Mi, Su Mo also gradually mastered the skills of how to achieve space opening without using the exclusive power of words and spirits, and fixed it into the genuine skills he mastered.
Following [Spiritual Reforge], he mastered the alchemy kingdom called [Spatial Development].
Although in terms of strength scale and use skills, it is not comparable to Odin and Hela of Death for the time being, but it is also a genuine LV6 level skill.
Now, [Life Creation] can only be learned after he has finished stripping him of the authority of the King of the Sea and Water, for Su Mo, this kind of thing will not be too long, but before that, he still wants to learn the [Concept Armament] first.
He can simulate the [Conceptual Armament] with his own Speech Spirit, but the techniques he uses are still different from the actual [Conceptual Armament].
With his experience of learning [Space Development], he still needs a teacher to explain, and the learning speed will be faster.
"Is the concept armed? No problem! ”
Lu Mingze naturally would not refuse this request.
"With your exclusive spirit of words, in fact, you have already learned most of the mastery skills of [Concept Armament], but you are just a little unfamiliar with the addition of domains, I remind you that you can fully master it. It just so happens that these two weekends are on vacation, and my brother is on vacation, so this little time should be enough for you. ”
Regarding Su Mo's learning ability, Lu Mingze can only admire it now.
Even if you can share authority through the mask, it is still almost impossible to quickly learn the power of the dragon king level or something just like this.
Su Mo's exclusive spirit and [Concept Armament] were incomparably compatible, and with just a little nudge, he could completely grasp this alchemy kingdom.
It is said that Odin is a rare genius among the eight kings, but he also studied for an unknown number of years, and under the personal supervision of the black king, he mastered so many alchemy kingdoms.
And Su Mo, in just two months or so, has grown from an ordinary person to the point where he is now, with his learning speed, he will probably be able to surpass Odin.
"Thank you!"
Su Mo thanked him, then looked down at the egg of the King of the Sea and Water in front of him, the golden light in his eyes lit up, and he directly activated the exclusive spirit of words.
After a little inspection, Su Mo spoke.
"The vitality of this king of the sea and water seems to have been sacrificed a little too much, although the authority of the dragon king has not been damaged, but in its current state, once it is stripped of its authority, it will immediately cocoon, and it will take a long time to recover."
Unlike Fenrir in his heyday, as well as Norton and Constantine in normal condition, the king of the sea and water in front of him is obviously about to be squeezed dry by the White King.
If it weren't the king of the ocean and water with the strongest vitality, but another dragon king, I'm afraid it wouldn't be able to hold on to it now.
Once stripped of the authority of the sea and life, and without the repair of the authority, although this dragon king will not die on the spot, at least it will be weak for a long time, even if it replenishes enough dragon blood, it will take enough time to return to normal.
Hearing this, Lu Mingze frowned slightly, and said in a firm tone.
"No, the authority must be stripped off as soon as possible, and you can't be delayed from improving your strength."
It was clear that he was looking forward to the encounter with his pet just now, but when it came to the real plan, he made a choice very decisively.
For him, after all, it is his alliance with Su Mo, that is, his brother's future is more important.
However, Lu Mingze is not the type who will easily give up his own people.
"Will stripping authority cause any irreversible damage to it?"
He asked Su Mo.
He didn't know much about Su Mo's exclusive speech effect.
Zero also looked nervously, and she was also a little concerned about this friend who was willing to play with her when she was a child.
"Of course not."
Su Mo immediately shook his head.
"It's just that, after stripping the authority, its remaining vitality will not be enough to maintain normal activities, and it needs to go into deep dormancy. If it is allowed to sleep in a cocoon, it may take hundreds of years to repair itself before it can wake up. ”
A few hundred years is nothing for dragons.
If he can survive the end of the world, Lu Mingze doesn't mind waiting for a few hundred more years, if not, there is no point in waking it up.
And just as Lu Mingze was about to agree, among all the people present, except for the half-dead King of the Sea and Water, the Dragon King, who had the deepest research on cocooning, spoke.
"In fact, there is another option, which is to bury its cocoon in the body of any life, forming a parasitic state of suspended animation."
"Suspended animation?"
Everyone looked at the girl.
"Hmm."
Miss Natsumi nodded, talking eloquently in her field of expertise.
"Just like the dragon eggs that live on Ange's body, the parasitic dragon eggs will minimize life activities, and at the same time retain a part of the perception of the outside world, and have the possibility of awakening at any time."
"Although suspended animation does not have the self-healing ability of deep dormancy, it can also maintain a response to external stimuli, and when we have complete authority over the ocean and water, we can directly help him hatch with the help of external forces, without waiting for hundreds of years."
If deep dormancy is self-healing, suspended animation is simply hanging.
If you don't count the external forces, the former method is naturally more fundamental, but considering that the end of the world is only a few years away, if Su Mo's side can defeat the Black King, it must also have the power to awaken the king of the sea and water, and if Su Mo's side loses, the king of the ocean and water will not survive.
Judging in this way, it is convenient to fake death and hang oneself in the later stage to wake up with external force.
Lu Mingze quickly adopted Miss Xia Mi's opinion.
In other respects, this female dragon is unreliable, but in terms of cocooning, Xia Mi's attainments may not be lost to the king of the sea and water.
So the question is, what creatures are suitable to be housed by the king of the sea and water?
This question was flashing through everyone's minds at the same time.
"Wow!"
Outside the living room, a dog barked suddenly.
Within a few seconds, two fat Siamese cats ran over gracefully from the outside one after another, rubbing Su Mo and Lu Mingze's bodies in turn.
The two cats still remember their owners, and they also remember Su Mo who fed them.
After the two cats disliked the water stains on the ground and jumped on the sofa, Lu Mingze lifted the back of the necks of the two Siamese cats, revealing disgusted eyes.
"It is said that Siamese cats are mysterious elves among cats, and I am so sad to see you fat and dumb......"
After sighing, he looked back at Natsumi and asked.
"The parasitism of dragon eggs, I remember that it is not harmful to the body of life, right?"
"Well, not only is there no harm, but it can even help improve the bloodline of life, so that it has a long life and the baptism of dragon blood."
Natsumi added.
Ange is an excellent example, as the host of the dragon egg, the side effects of age and blood storm have no effect on him, even if Li Wuyue's egg is now devoured by Odin, but if Ange can wake up, he can still maintain his original vitality.
"Improve blood, I don't know if I can improve my body shape......"
After muttering like this, Lu Mingze threw his sister Xiaoniayou in the Siamese cat in his hand directly to Su Mo.
"Then I'll leave them to you."
Here they refer to the king of the sea and water and the female cat bird swimming.
"No problem!"
Su Mo caught the cat with one hand.
Hurriedly thrown out by the master, Xiao Birdyou was not panicked, after being caught by Su Mo, she immediately climbed up his shoulder along Su Mo's arm, and finally put her paws on Su Mo's hair, putting on a proud queen posture.
It's a bit fat, but it's flexible.
"So, the boss plans to raise the dragon king as a cat?"
Looking at this fat Siamese cat, Mai Jiude helplessly covered her face.
"I always feel that I was stupid when I used to be afraid of the power of the Dragon King!"
"What's this!"
Su Enxi patted Jiude Mai's shoulder indifferently.
She wasn't surprised by her boss's whimsy, because she had already seen something even more surprising when she arrived early.
"-There are also those who raise the dragon king to be dogs!"
On the side, seeing that a mere cat dared to squat on Su Mo's shoulder, and licked her paws while condescending and condescending, Miss Xia Mi was suddenly unhappy.
She directly grabbed the back of Bird's neck, lifted it directly to the sofa, and then patted Su Mo's shoulder at the cat, and then taught.
"This is my place, you are not allowed to sit!"
"Meow?"
The bird tilted his head and squatted on the armrest of the couch, as if looking at the fool.
"Meow is useless, this is my exclusive location, do you hear?"
Miss Natsumi patiently repeated again and threatened.
"If you continue to sit, I won't give you dried fish to eat in the future!"
"Meow meow!"
As if he understood Natsumi's words, Totori began to protest.
The younger brother who was lying in front of Lu Mingze behind him heard his sister's voice, and immediately rushed over, and kept meowing, circling around Xia Mi, as if he was supporting his sister.
And seeing that these two cats actually dared to quarrel with herself, Miss Xia Mi puffed out her cheeks in disbelief, feeling that she couldn't lose to each other.
And didn't wait for her to continue speaking.
"Woohoo!"
A hurried dog bark sounded.
It can't be Natsumi who will shout in public, but a little earth dog with a black body and a little cute.
The puppy stood directly in front of Xia Mi, as if he wanted to help Xia Mi, and sprayed with the Siamese cat brother opposite.
With the size of a puppy and those sharp teeth, it is not difficult to solve the two cats in front of you.
However, even with the advantage of its size, it didn't do it, and it even seemed to be a little afraid of the two cats, but it was only because it wanted to protect Natsumi that it mustered up the courage to stand up and spray each other.
"Woohoo!"
"Meow meow!"
The Siamese cat brother on the opposite side was also a coward, a cat and a dog bluffed at each other, and they didn't get close to each other for half a step.
Looking at the two useless brothers spraying each other at their feet, the female dragon and the female cat shook their heads at the same time.
A dragon and a cat glanced at each other, and for a moment they were a little sympathetic, but soon their eyes became sharp.
The stupid younger brother is pinched, and as an older sister, she should naturally decide the winner.
Just when their atmosphere was solemn and the battle was about to break out.
"Boom!" "Boom!"
Su Mo and Zero hit the heads of a dragon and a cat with a hand knife at the same time.
"Su Mo ~ Why did you hit me?"
Miss Xia Mi covered her head and glared at Su Mo aggrievedly.
"The dragon king of the dignified god domain level is actually competing with a cat, where are you a stupid person?"
Su Mo complained helplessly.
Although Miss Natsumi, who is serious about arguing with cats, is indeed cute, yes, she will never eat the vinegar of cats, right?
If you quarrel with a cat, even if you win, it will be disgraceful, and with Miss Natsumi's eloquence, you may still lose...... After all, no one can beat the mere "meow meow".
"Whoever let it rob me of something is obviously the cat's fault!"
Miss Natsumi said with a straight face.
"Even a cat can steal your things, doesn't that mean you're too vegetable?"
Su Mo asked rhetorically.
"It seems to make sense, but it's a little unreasonable......"
Xia Mi was slightly stunned, and after pondering for two seconds, she suddenly remembered something.
"Wait! Counting the previous time, is this the second time you have said my dish today? Su Mo, have you been underestimating me more and more recently? Although you are usually a little disrespectful, it seems that disrespect is more frequent these days. ”
Miss Natsumi had a suspicious expression.
Seeing her like this, in order to protect Miss Xia Mi's self-esteem, Su Mo did not let her continue to guess, but took the initiative to admit defeat.
"Well, it's my fault, I should support you unconditionally!"
Hearing this, Xia Mi's eyes lit up and immediately gave up thinking.
"Su Mo, you said it was your fault, that is, you admit that you need to apologize to me, no matter what I do to you, right?"
In a way that is very much in line with the local culture of Japan, Miss Natsuya leans over with a thief smile on her face.
For her approach, Su Mo naturally would not refuse.
And so—
"Chirp~"
Like all girls in love, Miss Natsumi has a soft spot for kissing.
Although Su Mo wanted to tell Xia Mi that as long as she wanted to do this, there was no need to make excuses, but considering that after saying this, Xia Mi estimated that he could pester him so that he couldn't do anything else for at least a year, so he still gave up this idea.
It doesn't matter when it's time else, but now I have to deal with Odin, and I don't have so much time to spare.
So, under Eri's envious eyes, Zero's calm gaze, and Nono's heartache-stricken gaze, Miss Natsumi wiped her mouth with satisfaction.
After being satisfied on Su Mo's side, Xia Mi no longer had any plans to quarrel with the cat.
Glancing at the little dog who also stopped the quarrel with the cat at his feet, and leaned over to be a friend, Xia Mi lifted the back of its neck speechlessly, and looked at the little earth dog in his hand with the same eyes that Su Mo looked at her.
"So, even if he is reincarnated, shouldn't Fenrir also have the strength of the sub-generational level, why is he afraid of an ordinary cat? Fenrir, why are you so skilled? ”
Hearing this, everyone took a strange look at this god-level dragon king who was still arguing with the cat just now, and fell silent.
Miss Xia Mi didn't notice everyone's eyes, but continued to stare at her younger brother with the same hating eyes as Su Mo.
Yes, the little dirt dog in her hand is the result of Fenrir's hatching.
To be precise, it's the result of Fenrir's mimicry, and its body is still a pure-blooded dragon.
Two days ago, Fenrir successfully hatched, and after examination, the strength in its body was not problematic, and it was even much stronger than the second-generation Norton, but it did not grow completely.
However, even if it was re-hatched, it didn't solve his intellectual disability, and in the past two days, in addition to interacting with Su Mo Xia Mi, he has been running after the butts of the two Siamese cats, as if he wants to make new friends.
If it weren't for Miss Xia Mi and the cat quarreling, it is estimated that he would not have been on the line with the cat.
At this moment, caught by Xia Mi, Fenrir's gaze was very innocent.
It has always been such a coward, unless Natsumi's safety is threatened, it will not go berserk, and ordinary people are often shocked by Fenrir's huge dragon body at first sight, so that they can't believe that this big man is actually more cowardly than cats and dogs.
Hearing Xia Mi's inquiry, Su Mo complained in his heart: Is it possible that "vegetables" are the authority of your land and mountains?
But he didn't say it after all, but remembered something.
"Speaking of which, it doesn't seem difficult for Fenrir to grow, isn't there a lot of dragonblood subspecies in the place we just visited?"
"You mean, Extreme Abyss?"
Xia Mi immediately understood what Su Mo meant.
In the depths of the abyss is the former High Heaven Plain, which has an entire dragon subspecies of the ecological circle, this is the food reserved for the White King, and now that the White King is no longer in the High Heaven Plain, can these foods be stolen to supplement Fenrir's body?
At the very least, let it beat a cat!
"Hmm."
Su Mo nodded.
In fact, if time hadn't allowed, letting the Lord of the Sea and Water absorb these dragon's blood subspecies would also speed up its recovery.
"Wait!"
Hearing the conversation between the two, Lu Mingze suddenly interrupted.
"It's fine to feed Fenrir with what's in the Abyss, but there's one extra thing you need to be careful about."
Hearing this, Su Mo and Xia Mi glanced at each other, and then asked.
"You mean...... Red tide? ”
"That's right!"
Lu Mingze said with a very serious expression.
"During this operation, no matter what sea area you are in, once you observe the phenomenon of red tide, be sure to leave as soon as possible!"
Hearing Lu Mingze say this so seriously again, Su Mo showed a thoughtful expression.
In fact, before going deep into the abyss to catch the eggs of the king of the sea and water this time, Lu Mingze had already had such a reminder, and Su Mo and Xia Mi didn't ask in detail at that time, they just wrote down this reminder, and used the space to open up a direct abyss for safety.
Unexpectedly, Lu Mingze mentioned this again.
"So, why do you care so much about this?"
Miss Natsumi asked suspiciously.
She knows that red tides are caused by the accumulation of plankton in the ocean, and that an overabundance of nutrients can lead to algae blooms and cause discoloration.
But is there anything to be wary of this natural phenomenon?
"Look!"
Lu Mingze directly handed over a newspaper, which was the international news this morning, and the corner of the news page mentioned a red tide that broke out in the Arctic Ocean, and the overwhelming red tide dyed the ocean bright red, like the Red Sea.
The largest red tide ever recorded even crossed the Bering Strait with ocean currents and reached the Pacific Ocean.
At this end of the report, Miss Xia Mi was a little ignorant, but Su Mo realized something.
"You mean, it's about the Black King?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes widened.
