Chapter 209: The Moment of Departure
Zheng Shu maintained the posture of crushing Zero's head, and his body remained motionless.
Even though Zero had lost his breath for a long time, he continued to inject destructive spiritual power into Zero's body.
There's no way, if you're facing a normal dragon king, you'll definitely be able to confirm that the enemy will be dead if your head is broken, but it's not certain for an enemy like Zero. In the battle just now, Zheng Shu smashed Zero's head not once or twice, but the other party was able to resurrect again every time.
After all, Zheng Shu himself does not have any corresponding detection methods, and the skill closest to mental damage in the dragon clan is only to create an illusion, for the sake of insurance, he can only use this method to ensure that the other party dies as "safely" as possible.
This behavior continued for more than an hour with the support of the physical strength provided by the endless summoning of instant noodles, and it was not until the thread of fate on his body began to untie that he finally let go.
"Hoo ......"
Sitting on the ground and gasping for breath regardless of the image, Zheng Shu looked at the corpse of Number Zero in front of him in a daze, it is said that the intensity and time of this battle are quite extreme, but the final boss of the dragon world lying in front of him still makes him feel unreal.
Progress: 284.76%→400.17%
After glancing at the information on the panel, the harvest this time is very rich, even if the previous natural accumulation of collection progress is removed, the impact factor obtained this time directly exceeds the 100% progress bar.
The progress bar fluctuates so violently that it is almost certain that Zero is dead, at least for hundreds of years.
glanced at the time when this message appeared, and it probably took another 15 minutes after he pinched Zero to death, which means that this guy was really pretending to be dead some time ago.
Scattering the simple version of the Nibelungen that had been maintained, Zheng Shu glanced at the transparent silk threads in the sky.
After all this time, these silk threads have no intention of dissipating in the slightest, and even their strength has not diminished. It can be seen that Zero should have used some special means to make these silk threads form a self-circulation, and there is no need to rely on his strength to continue to maintain.
Tentatively reaching out and touching it, Zheng Shu was surprised to find that these silk threads were even more fragile than he imagined, just a little touch, and the entire cage already showed signs of collapse.
This......
Looking at such a fragile cage, Zheng Shu was a little confused.
It stands to reason that since Zero chose to use this as a method to trap himself, then this thing at least has enough ability to block and defend, and it can be seen from the fact that the outside world has not carried out a secondary attack so far, and this cage does have the same defensive effect as he expected. Since touching it will cause such a result, it can only mean that you have inadvertently completed some kind of hard condition that can open this cage.
Zheng Shu grabbed his hair and decided not to think about it, which was a good thing anyway.
However, it was a surprise that the cage had not been destroyed, after all, he also wanted to find a chance to strengthen his newly acquired enhancement template.
Although theoretically he has now completely brushed up the "plot" that can be brushed in the dragon clan, but since there is such an opportunity, the impact factor consumed will be returned anyway, of course, he has to try to see what it is like to hold the world's top power.
And the cage made of these transparent silk threads has become a particularly suitable shelter in this situation.
"Panel, use Zero as the main body to fuse the two templates, and then strengthen this template to my body, directly strengthen the full!"
[Warning!! This enhancement template is too much integrated with the World Origin, and when you leave the World, you will inevitably be deprived of all your powers. 】
"Deprive it, deprive it, continue to strengthen!" Zheng Shu doesn't matter, judging from the situation of the templates he has strengthened now, there are only a handful of worlds that can admit that these templates can manipulate the basic rules, and they are basically deprived when they leave anyway, and this one is not bad.
[Instruction received.] 】
outline
[Enhancement Template: Destiny Has Been Integrated]
[Enhancement template: Destiny is ready to be strengthened, and the corresponding impact factor has been deducted.] 】
Progress: 400.17%→350.17%
Feeling the changes in his body, Zheng Shu's mood was a little excited, this was the first time that the name of the enhancement template could appear directly after being fused in the panel, and he was very much looking forward to what level of strength he could achieve after the enhancement......
Before he could finish thinking, Zheng Shu threw himself on the ground and lost consciousness.
The familiar green light spread out from his chest, forming an oval shape that enveloped Zheng Shu.
……
……
Because Zheng Shu's battle lasted too long, and he was mentally exhausted after he had triggered the spiritual vision, Lu Mingfei had already returned to his dormitory with Ange's permission.
Lying on the bed staring at the ceiling, Lu Mingfei was still thinking about Zheng Shu's situation.
He still can't believe that the real identity of Zheng Shu, the local tyrant who looks generous and cheerful, is actually a dragon king.
Although his parents and birth process were theoretically complete, after seeing the dragon king's ability to manipulate human memories, this information has become no longer credible. After all, after Odin's death, false memories of Pompeii were also discovered by the Gattuso family.
Theoretically, even such an important person would be impersonated by humans, so it is naturally very possible for someone like Zheng Shu to be replaced by the Dragon King.
Another reason why Lu Mingfei was able to withdraw from the war room was also because his close relationship with Zheng Shu made the secret party people wary of him. Not only him, but other people, including Chu Zihang and Caesar, were also vigilant to a certain extent.
Lu Mingfei didn't have anything to complain about this, the only thing he couldn't figure out was - is Zheng Shu really the Dragon King?
In his opinion, although Zheng Shu sometimes behaves strangely, there is no pretense in his friendliness when he gets along with him and Chu Zihang.
In Lu Mingfei's view, Zheng Shu is just an "ordinary person" who likes to eat food, likes to play games, laughs when he wins, and scolds his mother when he loses. Now that someone suddenly told him that this person was actually the Dragon King, and all his emotions, including his previous performance, were disguised, Lu Mingfei felt that he still couldn't accept it.
"Perhaps...... It's Lao Zheng who is more powerful in disguise. Lu Mingfei thought like this, and fell asleep in a daze.
But after a while, he woke up from his dream, gasping for breath, clutching his chest with palpitations, and just now he suddenly had a feeling of emptiness.
"What's wrong, what's going on, what's going on!?" Fingal's voice came from the side, and he didn't know when he was back in the dormitory.
"It's nothing, maybe it's just a nightmare." Lu Mingfei explained casually.
"Nightmares? It doesn't make sense, can you still be scared to cry by nightmares? ”
Fingal's words made Lu Mingfei stunned for a moment, and he immediately touched the corners of his eyes and found the tears that flowed. Only then did he realize that he didn't know when he had been crying.
On the other side, at the moment of Zero's death, Natsumi and Norton also immediately gained the sense. However, unlike Lu Mingfei's sadness, they felt great joy, as if some shadow that had been pressing on their hearts disappeared out of thin air.
However, except for these people (dragons), the others did not have the corresponding senses, but still used satellites to keep an eye on the scene on the island.
……
……
[Enhancement Template: Destiny Enhancement completed.] 】
Zheng Shu was stimulated by the information on the panel to wake up, and only then did he realize that he had lost consciousness again in the process of strengthening.
The moment he woke up, with the place where Zheng Shu was located as the center of the circle, the surging energy resonated and vibrate, brewing a brilliance that could not be seen directly, and the solid earth spread out ripples like water waves, and the invisible force swept away, even the cage in the sky trembled, and the transparent silk threads vibrated wildly as if they were about to burst.
"Hmm...... Keep this in mind and pay attention to the loss of consciousness when strengthening the template with your own name in the future. Zheng Shu squinted his eyes and stretched his waist, he felt that his body was extremely comfortable, and even the mental fatigue of continuous hard fighting had disappeared completely.
"! Where am I? What happened? As soon as he opened his eyes, Zheng Shu was stunned by the scene in front of him.
In front of him was a dense forest that had been shattered, apparently destroyed by the aftermath of the energy he had emitted when he had just awakened. The problem is that after being tortured by his battle with Zero, there can't be any intact plants on this island.
Zheng Shu immediately raised his head and found that the thread of fate in the sky was still there, and the cage was also intact, indicating that he was still on that uninhabited island, but why did there be such a big change?
"Could it be that these plants were spawned by the power that I emitted when I strengthened them?" Zheng Shu made a more reasonable judgment, after all, the other side of this reinforcement template is called creation by the panel.
However, he soon realized that he was overly optimistic, and that the real situation might be a little more serious than he thought - he found Zero's bones.
That's right, it's the bones that have been turned into bones after the corpse has completely decomposed.
Moreover, the surrounding trees look very wrong when you look closely, and some trees even have lines on the skin that resemble dragon scales. Obviously, these are some plants that have grown under the influence of dragon's blood.
"This ...... How many years have I been asleep? ”
As soon as this thought flashed through Zheng Shu's mind, pictures immediately appeared in front of him, from various perspectives with time, some were looking at the watch on their wrists, some were playing games and inadvertently skimmed the electronic clock next to the computer, and some were looking at the calendar......
These pieces of information that were enough to make a person go into shock for a moment poured into Zheng Shu's mind in an instant, but Zheng Shu processed it in an instant with great ease, as if this was his instinct.
There was no time to sigh at the power of this template, Zheng Shu's face became gloomy as he looked at the information he had obtained.
It's been 10 years......
Ten years have passed since the end of his battle with Zero.
Zheng Shu had actually been worried about all kinds of accidents that might occur if he had been strengthened for too long at one time, but this worry had disappeared in the extremely fast strengthening speed of the panel again and again, and as a result, this problem suddenly appeared again when he was completely unprepared.
Suddenly told that he had been asleep for so long, Zheng Shu's first reaction was, of course, to know the movements of those people related to him.
Fortunately, he now represents fate, and this kind of information can be obtained immediately if he wants to.
Lu Mingfei because of the gift given by Zero before leaving, so that his physical fitness has reached the standard of a real S-class half-blood, and after graduation, he has become one of the two trump cards of the executive department of Kassel Academy, and now he is with Zero greasy and crooked all day except for tasks.
The changes in Lu Mingfei's appearance and temperament can be said to be very big, if it weren't for the familiar smile he showed when he was with Zero, Zheng Shu almost thought that he had found the wrong person.
And the other trump card of the executive department is Chu Zihang, after so many years of refining his bloodline, his current bloodline level can be called a real S-level.
The only thing that surprised him was that Chu Zihang was actually married to Xia Mi, and it seemed that after losing the black king, the biggest source of fear, Xia Mi and Jörmungard were the two personalities dominated by Xia Mi.
"Looking" at Xia Mi and Chu Zihang's tired expressions together, Zheng Shu thought about it, maybe it was also related to Jörmungard himself is "lust".
Mia took the money Zheng Shu gave her and went to a small city in southern China, bought a luxurious house to live in, and seemed to be very happy.
Caesar is married to Chen Motong and is now traveling around the world, occasionally taking on tasks given by the Executive Department. After all, he has been confirmed to have a close relationship with the Dragon King, so the Gattuso family does not dare to pass on the position of the head of the family to him no matter how much they are headed, but this is in response to Caesar's wishes, so he is very happy to hand over the position of the heir of the head of the family.
Ange was still looking for traces of other dragon kings, but his main focus was on the island surrounded by the thread of fate.
During his slumbering decade, countries around the world have come up with various ways to break through the cage of the thread of fate. Unfortunately, it is clear that even with the help of nuclear bombs, it is still a bit difficult for a single country to destroy all the creatures in this world, so they cannot destroy the defenses of the Thread of Destiny.
That's right, Zheng Shu already knew the conditions for the destruction of the cage after strengthening the fate template. However, it is clear that after strengthening the White King's template, he already has the initial power of destroying the world by using the skills of the panel. So a long time ago, he had already reached the conditions to break through the cage of fate.
Zheng Shu looked around at the recent situation of the people related to him, and suddenly scratched his head.
He found that they had lived well during this time even without him, and that according to the attention he was receiving now, it would have ruined their lives if he went out and had contact with them now. In this way, it seems that it is better not to meet with them.
Zheng Shu doesn't think he's the kind of self-sacrificing saint, but if he can save his friends from some trouble with a gesture, he's happy to do so.
After thinking about it, it seems that the things that can be done in this world are almost completed, and there seems to be no reason to stay in this world.
Zheng Shu originally planned to destroy this cage of the Silk Thread of Destiny, but now it seems that it is better to keep it like this. Zheng Shu is not afraid of all kinds of traps arranged by various countries outside the cage, mainly if he tears the cage, he will attract attention to himself, and then there will be a lot of trouble.
With a thought in his mind, Zheng Shu's figure gradually faded, and after confirming that all the information in his body, including thermal radiation and gravitational waves, was obscured, Zheng Shu took a step forward so calmly, and the next moment he appeared in the sky above a city.
Looking at the familiar and unfamiliar city below, Zheng Shu found a place where no one was and slowly fell.
This is where Shilan High School is located, and it is also the city where Zheng Shu grew up from childhood to adulthood after crossing into this world.
Walking down the street, Zheng Shu aimlessly looked at the scenery around him.
Ten years have passed, and the changes on the streets are not small, but after all, it is only a small city, and there are some places that have never changed.
The surroundings of a key school like Shilan High School can be said to be changing with each passing day, and if it weren't for the fact that the sign of this high school was still shining, Zheng Shu would not even be able to recognize it. But the street of the small shop and Internet café that he used to go to has not changed in the slightest, and the only difference is probably that there are a lot of shops closed, which seems a little lonely.
Zheng Shu doesn't walk fast, but he can cross a long distance with every step. He didn't know why he came to the city to take another look, and he couldn't even tell what his emotions were, maybe it was nostalgia, maybe it was just plain boredom......
In this way, until the evening, Zheng Shu almost looked at all the traces left by his city, including his home, which had no good memories for him.
At this time, he finally woke up and found that he had come to a particularly familiar place.
However, for Zheng Shu, it seems a little strange here, the original dilapidated walls have been renovated, the rusty iron gate has been replaced and maintained, and the small buildings in the courtyard have also been rebuilt to look much more atmospheric, and the only thing that has changed is probably the sign hanging on the top.
Chaoyang Welfare Institute.
Looking at the sign that had been repainted with paint, Zheng Shu was stunned.
If there is any place in the world that impresses him the most, it is probably here, apart from the Kassel Academy.
After all, he had spent many years helping the people here, even though his purpose at the time was only to earn impact factors that seem insignificant now.
But I have to say that Zheng Shu feels that he has put in a lot more effort here than the Kassel Academy.
At this time, the lights in the courtyard had come on, and they were no longer as dim as he had remembered, but looked unusually bright. And Zheng Shu can clearly see that there are several more employees in the courtyard, and it seems that the director of the welfare home finally has spare money to hire some people to help him.
Zheng Shu scratched his hair again, he suddenly felt a little ashamed, ashamed of his utilitarianism.
At first, he came here every day rain or shine in order to be able to obtain the impact factor, but after having a better way, he unconsciously forgot about this place. Although he didn't owe these people in terms of action, Zheng Shu still felt a little guilty in his heart.
At this time, he suddenly remembered what Zero had said to him at the beginning: "I didn't expect you to be a good person, most of the threads of fate give you blessings rather than curses, if it weren't for these blessings to help you bear most of the pressure, you may not be able to stand up now." ”
"Well, looks like I might really owe them a little ......"
Zheng Shu said this, but a very happy smile appeared on his face.
Just then, a loud shouting in the courtyard caught his attention, and he noticed that the dean had let go of a very obese-looking figure out of the door.
"Mr. Du, thank you very much all the time, not only for helping us renovate the welfare home, but also for volunteering when you have time." The dean, who looked very old, walked out slowly, and beside him was a somewhat obese male.
"Dean, don't say that, I'm just helping Lao Zheng take care of you."
As soon as the obese man spoke, Zheng Shu's expression became a little strange, because he heard a very familiar voice: "Du Sen?!" ”
Glancing at the figure at least two hundred pounds in the distance, recalling his tall and thin figure in high school, Zheng Shu couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he recalled the green bubbles suspended on Du Sen's head: "It turns out that those impact factors mean like this?" ”
"Don't say that, thank you very much for helping us. Zheng Shu is a good boy, but it's a pity ......" The dean's voice was a little low when he came here, but he quickly changed his mood again, "Forget it, don't talk about it." Go back, it's not too early, and you're going home to reunite with your family, after all, it's the Spring Festival. ”
"Okay, then I'll go first, Dean, I wish you a happy new year in advance!" Du Sen also seemed a little depressed, nodded, got into the luxury car parked next to him and left here.
"It seems that I passed away in a car accident in the official information......," Zheng Shu checked "fate" and understood his current situation, "It's okay, in this way, I don't have too many worries in this world." ”
easily dialed the fate line of Du Sen and the welfare institute, so that they could live more smoothly in the future, seeing that their current life is also good, Zheng Shu has no intention of going out to recognize them.
"But...... Today actually happens to be the Spring Festival......" Zheng Shu sighed a little complicatedly, turned around and disappeared into the dark alley.
"It looks like I don't have any regrets, so it's almost time to get out of here......"
Thank you Hell Demon God 820 for your tip, thank you for your support.
The dragon world is over, and tomorrow a new world will begin.
