Chapter 494: Trials and Alien Realms
The time of the assessment is half a month!
There was nothing in the black pocket issued by the sword hall, and the equipment of the swordsman, except for the armor and soft armor he was wearing, was one person and one sword.
Lu Ming wondered why the Sword Hall didn't give a reminder, and each person was equipped with a water bag, and they didn't have much money, right? Did they not care about the life and death of the swordsman, or did they want to make every swordsman walk all over the illusion in order to survive in this harsh environment?
But already in a fantasy world, it's useless to think about it. Lu Ming narrowed his eyes, and the killer's instinct began to jump. After feeling the abundant Heaven and Earth Vitality, he walked to the right.
Water!
Lu Ming used the knowledge accumulated in his career as a killer, and after climbing over a hill, a piece of water appeared in front of him, and the steaming water vapor on it made people feel extremely comfortable just by looking at it.
The water vapor is steaming, the green shade is swirling, this situation and this scene, it is like a fairyland on earth.
But Lu Ming's footsteps stopped, just standing in the distance, quietly observing the entire lake. This lake is not small, with a surface area of tens of thousands of square meters, but the surroundings are too quiet.
Lu Ming's rich knowledge clearly reminded him that no matter where he was, as long as there was water, there would be life, and water sources have always been an indispensable existence for wild animals, and their nature of migrating with water can be seen everywhere.
But not here!
A small bird landed on the silent foothold, and it looked at the stump, which looked strange, not as hot as other trees, but still delicious......
Lu Ming raised his hand and grabbed the bird's beak and looked at the sharp teeth covered inside. With a slight smile, he walked towards the lake.
A small drop of water was poured into the bird's beak, and then Lu Ming looked at the vicious bird that whimpered for a few convulsions without a word, the poison of this water was as strong as seeing blood seal the throat.
The weather is so hot, there is water to drink, and the stomach is a little hungry, it seems that the blazing climate is extremely draining on the body's energy!
Lu Ming turned around and walked into the woods by the lake, reached out and touched the huge tree trunk, and there was a feeling of hot metal coming from it. But it's really wooden.
It seems that the specific rules of space have given this world enough heaven and earth vitality. Everything here has a metallic texture, and if this kind of wood is brought back to the Sword Qi Continent, then the iron wood that has always been precious will be dwarfed.
Lu Ming raised his hand with a sword, but the sword that slashed on the wooden pole was full of sparks. But this is not difficult for Lu Ming. Just when he touched the trunk of the tree. He had already driven the sword mark power to probe the structure of the tree trunk, and it was just a test at the moment.
Lu Ming's body flashed slightly, and a sword pierced deeply into the thick tree trunk. At the same time, the trees spurted out the water like blood.
It was only at this time that Lu Ming discovered that the heart of the tree was hollow, and a large amount of water was stored in it, which made Lu Ming, who had an abnormally developed perception, a little strange, it seemed that this kind of tree also had the effect of shielding perception.
"But it seems that only a seal that shields even the ability to sense can lock in moisture. Lu Ming sighed in his heart.
After a brief test, Lu Ming found that the water was not poisonous, and it was still boiling water! After tasting it, it was quite sweet.
Lu Ming Yile, after cutting off a piece of wood, began to carve it. It didn't take long for a wooden kettle to appear, which was not difficult for Lu Ming at all. He took a jug of water, cut out a wooden cork, stuffed it, and put it in a black pocket, pinned it to his waist.
"Ding...... Belch... When... Ahh
A faint clash of weapons combined with a scream, Lu Ming suddenly looked in one direction, it was the other side of the lake, there were many trees that grew on the water.
Lu Mingfu lowered his body, and the aura on his body converged again, three points more hidden than the temptation of the vicious bird, and then lurked in that direction.
When Lu Ming arrived, the battle was over, but he was still taken aback. The scope of the battlefield is not large, and it looks like there are only a dozen or so people who have fought with weapons, and there are four or five swordsmen dressed in sword hall costumes on it, and judging from the clothes, they are foreign swordsmen.
But to Lu Ming's surprise, there were only three three-headed monsters on the field, and they were the lowest-level monsters with black skin, but these sword hall masters were still killed, and the three three-headed monsters were eating their corpses, and one monster was gouging out the eyeballs of a swordsman with his fingers......
Although he was used to seeing killing, the scene of eating corpses raw still made Lu Ming feel uncomfortable, even if he probed these monsters with his senses, Lu Ming endured it.
"Thank you, Holy Lord, for bringing us food!"
"Haha, it's so tender, I haven't eaten it for a long time......"
"Don't rob me, there's another one alive over there, how about our barbecue this time?"
"I think it's still fresh and tender to eat raw, wait until I eat this live, I think we should pay tribute to the Holy Lord, who keeps bringing us food!"
The three-headed monster was chewing hard, and when they saw Lu Ming, who was wearing a green shirt, forcibly enduring the feeling of nausea by the lake, walking step by step, their faces immediately showed an excited and cruel look, and they opened their mouths that were already blood-red to discuss.
However, a three-headed monster suddenly felt a black shadow flash in front of it, and then its consciousness gradually darkened, and at the last moment when the darkness came completely, it saw the stunned and unbelieving expression of its companion......
Lu Ming's incomparably fast sword slashed through the body of a three-headed monster, and a piece of purple blood immediately splattered out, and it turned into two pieces just for a moment, and fell down to both sides.
The other two three-headed monsters let out a heart-palpitating roar, and each three-headed monster's six hands held three swords, almost frantically rushing towards Lu Ming!
Lu Ming killed a monster as soon as the three monsters didn't react, but with the attack of the two monsters, Lu Ming immediately felt a little pressure.
Although they were only two three-headed monsters, they had three heads and six arms, and each mind was able to command their arms independently, making Lu Ming feel like he was fighting with six swordsmen!
Lu Ming couldn't even imagine how hard it would be if he encountered a three-headed monster comparable to the Sword King. Although before coming in, the Sword Hall had explained this environment, but it was only a general idea, and they almost didn't mention anything that threatened it!
The battle ended quickly, Lu Ming wordlessly dismembered the three-headed monster, the realm of these three guys was not enough to pose any threat to Lu Ming, at most it was just a little touch of cognition. But as the dismemberment progressed, the minced flesh of the swordsman who had been eaten was also exposed, and this sensory devastation was by no means something that could be expressed in a few words.
However, a moment later, Lu Ming found all the sword bones in the center of the three bodies. Holding this skeleton that was less than a foot long, but with a metallic texture, Lu Ming found that the metal contained in it was not available in the Sword Qi Continent at all, and from the perspective of a forging master, this was definitely an excellent material for forging a sword.
It's just that what makes Lu Ming helpless is that it is really rare to want to extract metal from the sword bone. These metals are well fused with the bones, but if you want to separate them, the bones of the three-headed monster comparable to stainless steel are not easy to dissolve, at least judging from the existing materials in the Sword Qi Continent, it is impossible to separate them at all.
And the most rare thing is that these sword bones actually contain sword intent!
Lu Ming knew very well that he wanted to keep the sword intent, unless it was released intentionally or unintentionally. The second is condensation, just like the sword relics condensed by the sword master before he died, or the sword relics and sword bones condensed by strong people such as the sword master before he died.
These can leave sword intent in them for future generations to cultivate, but the body of this three-headed monster actually has sword intent, which is an excellent material.
It seems that the Sword Hall must have a secret method to extract the metal and sword intent in it. Lu Ming paid attention to it secretly, then put away the sword bone, and looked around, for the time being, the three-headed monster has not continued to appear, but there is still an important matter in front of him that must be solved as soon as possible, food!
This world is extremely hot, and if you want to resist these temperatures, it is a considerable drain on your body's energy, even if you replenish a lot of water, Lu Ming still feels that his stomach is empty.
It seems that the problem of food must be solved, but Lu Ming absolutely rejects the corpses of the three-headed monsters, even though they are cannibalistic.
Through the battle, although the three-headed monster had three heads and six arms, this level of strength was not enough to kill four or five Sword Hall masters.
After a little examination, Lu Ming made a final judgment from these slightly blue stumps: they were all poisoned!
Lu Ming could completely imagine what kind of actions a few hungry and thirsty swordsmen would have after seeing the lake. However, when the three-headed monster attacked, they found that they had been poisoned and left to the monster's slaughter.
Lu Ming began to clean up the battlefield, throwing the few remaining stumps of the swordsman into the lake, and then threw the body of the three-headed monster into it to clear the traces of his visit.
Hula......
The calm lake suddenly churned, and a big fish more than a foot long jumped out of it, but to Lu Ming's surprise, the head of this fish actually occupied one-third of the entire body, and the mouth was even more disproportionately large.
Click!
The big fish bit the arm of a three-headed monster thrown by Lu Ming into two, and then dragged one arm back into the lake, and there was immediately a splash under the lake, with blood and minced flesh floating up from time to time, and then it was bitten down by a big mouth full of sharp teeth......
Piranhas?
Lu Ming felt that all the creatures in this world were very fierce, but when he saw this group of fierce fish, his stomach couldn't help but gurgle, as if in protest......
Lu Ming looked at the many broken stumps under his feet, and immediately laughed.
Lu Ming used the sturdy bark to help a stump and soon caught a piranha, and through a series of inspections, it was found that this fish was not poisonous! (To be continued......
