Chapter 420: The Truth and Departure (8,400 Words!) )

"Buzz ......"

Looking at the rapidly growing green light cocoon in front of him, Ault let out a vigilant sound.

This time, the power carried on the light cocoon was much smaller than the last time, and it was no longer enough to pose a threat to Aort.

However, it did not attack, because Oult could feel a strange aura rising rapidly within the light cocoon, and from that breath it felt fear and familiarity for the first time in a long time.

It seems that the previous food didn't know how to turn into a race similar to it, and its strength has also been greatly improved.

Aort knew exactly how strong he was, and it was difficult to fight against a creature of the same race, but beyond that little fear, there was a hint of excitement in it.

Obviously, the creatures inside the light cocoon are quite dangerous to it, but again, if you can devour the creature inside, it should be very good for yourself.

It has not been a long time since his own strength has been substantially improved, and devouring a fellow clan may be able to increase its strength for a long time.

So Oult did not choose to continue the attack, but stayed where he was and waited for Zheng Shu's evolution to be completed.

Boom!

At this time, Zheng Shu's reinforcement was also nearing the end, and the green light cocoon, which had swelled to a height of fifty meters, suddenly made a sound like a heartbeat, and the entire light cocoon also contracted violently.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Immediately afterward, the sound of a continuous heartbeat was heard, and a loud sound shook the air around the light cocoon into visible fluctuations.

With each vibration, the light cocoon shrank in a circle, and when it finally stopped beating, the light cocoon had shrunk to less than thirty meters high.

Aort's gaze became more vigilant, and his behavior became more and more irritable.

Although the size is rapidly shrinking, the aura inside is increasing wildly, and it will soon surpass it.

"Buzz!!"

The moment he sensed that the aura in the light cocoon was about to surpass him, Ault attacked without hesitation.

Although the temptation to improve his strength is also great, as a life form that mixes the universe, Ault knows very well that ensuring his own safety is the first priority.

And even if the evolution is not complete enough, devouring a creature with similar strength to yourself should be enough to increase your strength!

The two longest limbs swung out, silently slicing through the air like spears, stabbing at the center of the green cocoon.

Crunch......

At the last moment, a pair of arms wrapped in black-and-red carapace reached out from the light cocoon and grabbed the two arthropods that Ort had stabbed out, ignoring the unusually sharp carapace.

The collision between the carapace and the carapace exploded into blinding sparks, and no matter how hard Ault tried, its two arthropods could not be inched in, and it could not even be pulled out.

The momentum on Zheng Shu's body was still improving, and after his activities, a green light cocoon attached to his body, like a coating, continuing to transform his body.

Looking at Oult, who was pinned down in front of him, Zheng Shu slowly opened his mouth, and the crimson energy gathered in his mouth.

Rumble!!!

The blazing pillar of light blasted out like a divine sword, knocking Oort into the air and piercing it into the ground, splashing large expatriates of molten magma on the ground.

Zheng Shu's hands were still grasping the two slender arthropods of Aort, which looked like they had been torn off Aort's body.

The blow just now was not a magic cannon, Zheng Shu just gathered the energy generated by the nuclear fusion reaction in his body into his mouth, and then launched it.

With the supply of sufficient raw materials, this blow is even enough to burn glass on the surface of the planet if it is not blocked by Oort.

At this time, the momentum on Zheng Shu's body finally stopped rising, and the green light on his body began to fade, and finally turned into broken light and dispersed.

After the green light dissipated, the creature revealed as a whole still showed the posture of a human, and it looked like Zheng Shu's previous dragon posture, but there was also an object on its back that resembled a UFO disc like Oort.

Compared with Ort's blue and silver carapace, the carapace on Zheng Shu's body is black and red, and the flames burning on his body are also black.

However, although it doesn't seem to have changed much on the outside, Zheng Shu knows very well in his heart that Aort's strength is too strong, so he has been affected a lot more than expected.

He wasn't actually in the human form of the outside world, but became the same as Aort, with the body on his back that looked like a UFO disc.

The human body that is active now is actually just the keratin metabolized by Zheng Shu.

Because it's just a metabolized keratin, the shape can be modified at will, and it has little impact on combat effectiveness.

The moment Zheng Shu revealed his figure, the entire Crystal Valley began to resonate inexplicably, and in the face of the sudden appearance of two controllers, this erosion inherent enchantment entered a state of paralysis.

Zheng Shu didn't care about being beaten to Oort by himself, but stayed in place to examine his mental state.

He mentally recalls a psychological test paper, which he quickly completes, and then compares his scores with his psychological analysis to his previous mental state.

This is something that Zheng Shu recorded by the way when he was studying alchemy in the dragon world, in order to prevent himself from experiencing psychological aberration again, so that he could control the changing state of his mind as soon as possible.

"The psychological changes fluctuate quite dramatically, and there is a difference of more than 85% from the previous self-assessed psychological state, which is already quite a significant state."

Zheng Shu had expected this result, but he was also a little helpless, and with the passage of time, his psychological aberration continued to become more serious, and the difference from his previous psychological state would become bigger and bigger.

"If I maintain this posture for too long, even if I completely peel off the enhancement template, it will affect my mental state, so let's hurry up and solve it quickly...... In that case, it's good to eat the food in front of you quickly. ”

Looking at Oult, who was flying up again, Zheng Shu licked his lips unconsciously, and couldn't help but bring the two huge arthropods he had just torn off to his mouth and eat them as snacks.

Although Alter and he are theoretically of the same race now, Aristotle is a creature of no race.

What's more, Oult himself is still the type that specializes in devouring enemies to draw power, so when he saw Oult, who was close to his own strength, Zheng Shu immediately regarded it as high-quality food.

"The Crystal Valley has begun to crumble, and the effect of isolation from the outside world is beginning to dissipate, so in order to reduce the damage to the planet, it is better to restrain the power as much as possible. Otherwise, it would be too wasteful to have too many casualties in the outside world. ”

Zheng Shu thinks that he is a person who is quite frugal in food, and of course he will not watch the food outside being wasted in this way.

Quickly finished eating the two arthropods in his hand, feeling the origin power that he had slightly improved after eating the arthropods, Zheng Shu narrowed his eyes in satisfaction.

Just eating a little metabolized keratin has such a significant increase, and if you swallow it all, how much strength will it have to increase.

Anyway, with the blessing of multiple strengthening templates, and your absolute strength is higher than that of the other party, then the plan to devour the food in front of you can be implemented.

While Zheng Shu was silently thinking in his heart, Ault also felt the "appetite" in the eyes of "food", and it was very familiar with such a gaze, because it often used such a gaze to look at other foods.

Although normally Oort has no concept of death at all, if he is devoured by the other party and becomes a part of the other party, it cannot be regarded as death in a sense.

But for the independent-minded Oort, this is an unacceptable result, so it does not hesitate to launch a fighting posture and is ready to fight to the end.

As for escaping, judging from the power of the enemy's attack just now, it has no chance of escaping.

After all, the functions of the two sides are similar, and when one side has stronger power, the other side naturally can't run.

Since this is the case, it is better to choose to fight, after all, there are many variables in battle, although the opponent has copied its power, it is absolutely impossible to copy the material reserves it has gained over the years.

Fight a war of attrition, the advantage is mine!

Although it seems to behave sluggishly, in fact, Oort is an absolutely high-IQ creature, but its power is so large that it doesn't need to think so much in its normal state.

When faced with a threat to his life, Aort did not hesitate to make the best choice based on what was known.

Looking at the extremely fierce Aort with the blue flames burning on his body, Zheng Shu did not hesitate to burst out the black flames on his body, and also launched a fighting posture.

There was no conversation or eye contact, and the two figures exuding terrifying coercion disappeared in place at the same time, and when they reappeared, they had already collided together.

Rumble!!!

The cyan flames collided with the black flames, and there was a brief silence in the world, followed by an unimaginable burst of energy.

The blue-black intertwined energy body centered on the location where the two monsters collided, and rapidly expanded in a spherical shape at a speed beyond sound.

The extreme heat and shock wave easily blasted a large chunk of the ground directly below, causing a huge circular crater to appear on the South American continent that could be clearly seen even in space.

With the collapse of Crystal Valley, the two sides also appeared in the real world, and such terrifying energy fluctuations naturally attracted the attention of many people.

……

……

"Oh no, this kid can really copy the power of that monster, and the restraining force is now lifting a stone to shoot himself in the foot!"

Far away on the other side of the earth, in the ancient Greek region, Zeus of the divine realm is still being beaten and educated by Hera today.

Feeling the fluctuations of energy transmitted from the other side of the planet, and the terrifying spiritual will that treats all living things as his food, Zeus suddenly laughed.

"Can that little guy really do this? Hades should be able to relax as well, as his expression has become terrifying since the little guy left. ”

Hera glanced with contempt at a certain god-king who looked like a paramecium under his feet, and stopped the beating on the face of the success of this guy's plan.

"What's next for you? Just look at him like that? ”

"Is there any other way we can do it than just look at it?"

Zeus got up from the ground as if nothing happened, and when he came to a pool of water and raised his hand, the surface of the water immediately became as smooth as a mirror, and the scene of Zheng Shu and Aort fighting was also revealed.

However, this scene did not last long, as if they were aware that they were being spied on, and the two sides took a mouth on the way to the battle, and ate the "peeps".

"This level of strength, let alone us, even if the restraining force wants to do something, it is impossible."

Hera did not refute Zeus's statement, although it was far away, but they also knew very well how strong the monster sleeping in South America was, which was comparable to the existence of a planet in terms of size alone.

It is no exaggeration to say that if necessary, the other party can easily annihilate the earth.

You know, even Zeus, whom they call the god-king, wants to cause indelible damage to the planet, but he has to use the power he has gained, and that monster can do so purely by relying on his pure size.

In terms of the size of the volume alone, except for the original model that made them, the size of Kaos, which can reach the level of a stellar star, even transcendents such as the "Enlightened One" do not have this level of volume.

After all, compared to piling up one's own energy level little by little, slowly increasing the amount of material that can be controlled, and increasing the power of control is a simpler choice for "living beings".

Only a creature like Aristotle can reach this size with the support of an entire planet.

"But...... What are you going to do when they've decided the winner? Do you think that the physical form has been distorted into that posture, and that little one's mind can still remain the same? ”

As beings transformed from interstellar battle fortresses into gods, the twelve main gods of Olympus are more aware of the impact of external forms on the mind.

Zeus was silent for a moment, and finally sat down on his throne with a wry smile.

"To tell you the truth, I don't have a way to deal with it, but I can at least be sure that even if my mind is distorted, I won't do anything too bad with that kid's personality."

Clang!

Hera threw Zeus off the throne with a punch, and looked at the grieving god-king, the anger on the god-queen's face could not be suppressed.

"You bastard! Is it actually pinning our lives on such an ethereal thing? I shouldn't have trusted you! ”

With a roar of rage, Hera did not hesitate to beat Zeus again.

……

……

Thundered!

With a deafening whistling sound, the clouds were knocked open by the terrifying force, and a silver-blue object crashed into the ground like a meteor.

Rumble!!!

The ground shook, and countless cracks spread in all directions along the smashed spots, and lava burst out of the cracks.

Oort struggled to get up as he fell to the ground, and if it had been subjected to such a horrific attack under normal circumstances, its function would have ceased a long time ago.

But in the face of the current situation, Oult did not dare to stop his functions at will, after all, if he did that, it would be equivalent to sending himself into the other party's mouth as food.

However, the long battles had depleted its fuel, and the fierce pace of the battles and the terrifying suppressive power of the enemy had left it without even having time to absorb additional substance.

The exhaustion of energy made this monster who could annihilate the planet unable to do even the simplest action of getting up.

Aort realizes this and tries to suck in the air around him and the rocks beneath him to make up for the lack of substance in his body.

It's a pity that its enemies didn't give it that time.

There was no sound, no vibration, no warning, and a black-red flame fell like lightning from above.

He didn't cause a violent explosion, and he didn't have a roar that would stun the creature to death.

Simply landing on the ground, he pierced Ortner's seemingly indestructible carapace with his limbs, and pierced the spider-like body with the UFO-shaped disc behind it.

It wasn't until all this was done that the ground shook in hindsight.

And the alien invader Oult finally reached his limit at this time, and had to forcibly stop his functions.

Zheng Shu, who penetrated the enemy, did not hesitate to tear off the skin of the Oort spider form and throw it away, revealing the most delicious and delicious body.

Looking at this UFO disc of the same origin as himself, Zheng Shu's human body began to melt, wrapping the UFO disc below like a gel, forming a black-red sphere.

The UFO disc representing Zheng Shu's body emitted a black-red light, continuously transmitting its energy towards the wrapped Oort body.

The skin wrapped in a sphere also trembled a little, as if it was digesting something.

After a long time, the red sphere spread out again, reforming into a human posture, Zheng Shu took a deep breath, feeling his rising strength and being very happy.

He had been fighting with this food for a long time, and he didn't remember the specific time, Zheng Shu only knew that the day and night had changed here more than a thousand times.

After spending so much time and finally eating this big meal, Zheng Shu happily lay on the ground, thinking about whether to eat something else to celebrate.

Although he constantly summons instant noodles to satisfy his hunger, it is too boring to eat this kind of item that has no meaning, just "fills his hunger".

As soon as he thought of it, Zheng Shu stood up from the ground again, ready to go to other continents.

After all, even if Zheng Shu deliberately restrained his strength during the battle, the continent of South America had been cut off by the beatings, and North America, which was next to it, had also suffered heavy losses, and there was nothing too delicious left.

Zheng Shu cast his gaze into the air, and there were many strange eyes staring at him from just now, it should be the food of other continents observing from afar.

With the current technology of the earth, the creatures that can be observed across the ocean must be very delicious!

Zheng Shu followed the snooping gaze and looked backwards, this act of picking food reminded him of the feeling of picking food in the supermarket before, and when he thought about it, it was easier to be satisfied with the posture of a human being.

Mankind?

Mankind?!

The frisbee behind Zheng Shu suddenly radiated a strong light, and the memories that had been suppressed by his subconscious were recalled.

The psychological test questions immediately circulated in my mind, and the answers were instantaneous.

"The state of mind has been shifted by ninety-nine percent, and if it weren't for the realization of this, when the last bit of shift is completed, the creature named 'Zheng Shu' will disappear completely, and all that remains is Aristotle named 'Zheng Shu'."

With Zheng Shu's current computing ability, he quickly came to this conclusion, feeling the mental state that was still drifting, he knew that it was time for him to leave this world.

"It's a pity that I haven't gone to say goodbye to them yet."

Learning the methods of peeping at those "foods", Zheng Shu glanced at the three goddesses who were still on the mysterious island from a distance.

His heart was unusually calm, if it was Zheng Shu before, he might feel quite remorseful, but his current heart would not have such a feeling, this was just a conclusion he came to by simulating his previous personality.

Psychological Shift: 99.1%

At the same time, Zheng Shu had also discovered that with his tough reverse peeping into the past, all the "food" on the surrounding continent that could peek remotely had become vigilant.

The power of the entire planet was mobilized, and even the two restraining forces also mobilized most of the forces to observe from afar.

"Huh? Can I find inhibition directly? Yes, Aristotle himself was an individual who directly communicated with willpower, and after Ault devoured Aristotle of Mercury, he naturally gained the same ability. ”

As soon as a question popped up, Zheng Shu automatically got the answer.

He felt that there was no problem that could bother him in such a posture, his calculation speed could far exceed the calculation speed of all the supercomputers of the human race in the later generations combined, plus the ability to read the information of the inhibition force, as long as it was what happened on this planet, it was impossible to hide it from him.

"By the way, if you can observe the inhibition force, then my previous idea should be realized."

Psychological Shift: 99.4%

Zheng Shu completely withdrew the outer layer of keratin into his body, and the black-red UFO disc quickly flew into the air.

Just as it had just broken through the atmosphere and entered space, the seemingly steadily rising UFO suddenly made a turn and quickly circled the planet at sub-light speed.

"Chewing ...... The taste of inhibition is very average, and it doesn't feel like there's anything substantial. Chew ......"

The UFO disc showed a humanized chewing posture, swaying slowly towards outer space like eating some kind of difficult snack, ignoring the many vigilant gazes from the planet behind it and leaving the earth.

Behind him, nothing seemed to have changed on Earth, but all the gods on Earth were horrified to find that their power had dropped a little.

"Hmm...... Restraining is something that can't be killed without destroying the planet itself, but even if the newly born inhibition has the memory of the previous generation's inhibition, it's not the same individual anymore, and this can be regarded as a breath for myself. ”

Psychological Shift: 99.7%

Looking at the empty universe, Zheng Shu felt the sense of crisis that had been coming from time to time since he left the earth, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

"The universe of the Moon World is really twisted enough, it seems that in this world, the earth is indeed a safe place...... Hey? ”

Thinking of this, Zheng Shu suddenly understood something, and he suddenly realized that he had actually made a mistake all along.

When he first discovered that the Moon World had not yet entered the world, Zheng Shu's golden finger once awakened him and made a deal with the world consciousness.

Based on his inherent impression of the Moon World, Zheng Shu's first reaction was that it was the two restraining forces on Earth who were trading with him.

Therefore, Zheng Shu also seemed very incomprehensible when facing the crazy targeting of inhibition, because according to his understanding of inhibition, the other party should not do such a thing.

It wasn't until the Devouring Suppression Force obtained some of their intelligence information that Zheng Shu realized that he seemed to be wrong, the other party had not made any deals with him, and in their eyes, he was a pure intruder.

Their existence is no different from those so-called outer gods or descendants, they are all enemies who are frantically targeted by the power of restraint, and the reason why they can grow up smoothly is all thanks to the help of the ancient Greek gods.

Thinking about it carefully, Zheng Shu found that it seemed that he was indeed preconceived.

The most obvious situation is that when he learned of Medusa's death, he made a pact with that will on the mysterious island, became a heroic spirit as a living human, and traveled through the timeline to the future world.

Those who don't know much about the Moon world may think that Valhalla is controlled by the power of restraint, after all, the most favorite thing to use when the power of restraint corrects the world is all kinds of Heroic spirits.

In fact, the two belong to different systems, and the restraining force is not qualified to control Valhalla at all.

After all, Valhalla itself is an eternal "seat" that is free from the timeline and is on the outer side of the world with the root, spanning all the timelines and multiverses of the Moon World.

All of a Hero's "data" in Valhalla contains alternate worlds, including even Persona. If necessary, even the various outer gods can connect Valhalla in this way.

The one who has the deepest experience for this is Emiya Shirou, who can not only summon his own power in the future, but also use his own power in parallel universes.

As for the inhibition force, it is just the will to be born on a planet, and it cannot cross parallel universes, but can only control the planet where it is located, and if it is not done with the help of the Heroic Spirit, it cannot even cross time, and it will die for various reasons.

How could this barren, weak, ignorant and incompetent planetary will have the authority to govern the "seat" at the same level as the root.

If anything, Valhalla is probably similar to an international labor dispatch company, and the deterrent is the local business owner.

Business owners can send bills to multinational companies to send employees to help, but if they want to take care of the head of the multinational company, it is self-defeating.

The only thing that can be done is probably to make a contract in advance with someone who is about to become an employee of a multinational company (Valhalla), asking them to come and help him after becoming an employee of a multinational company (Valhalla).

But in any case, Valhalla's basic rule is that only dead beings can become Immortal, even if it's a death record on the timeline.

Obviously, Zheng Shu has no record of death on the timeline of the Moon World, so theoretically speaking, if the object of his trade is the two restraining forces of the earth, it is impossible for him to become a heroic spirit on the mysterious island in the first place.

Therefore, the existence that had traded with him twice at the beginning should be an existence that could override Valhalla and actually control the Moon World.

If you think about it this way, the identity of the other party is actually obvious, and the only thing that can do this is the "root" of the Moon World.

The root is also known as the vortex of the root.

The vortex of roots itself is similar to a book that records the beginning, the cause, process, and end of all things.

Just like the Akasha records, it records the beginning, process, and end of each life. Therefore, the one who comes into contact with the vortex of the root and prying into the cause and effect of all things knows all things.

In other words, the vortex of roots is the "ultimate knowledge", and the identity is similar to the avenue of the desolate world.

It does not control a single planet or universe, but an entire "world".

Only the identity of the root can represent the entire Moon World to make deals with him, so he was wrong from the beginning.

If you stand in the perspective of the root, the other party has indeed completed the deal with him perfectly, and the earth is almost the safest place in the universe.

And in order to prevent being harmed by the earth's restraining power, the root even arranged him in an area controlled by the ancient Greek gods, so that he had enough time to develop.

Judging from the fact that the world he lives in is not an anomaly, Zheng Shu even suspects that the root cause is for himself, and he has reopened a parallel world.

From the perspective of the multiverse of the entire Moon World, this is indeed the best start.

After realizing this, when Zheng Shu looked up at the universe again, he could immediately feel the familiar aura that he had traded with himself before.

Even in his current state, he still couldn't see the existence of the other party, but Zheng Shu could feel the friendly "emotions" he sent to him.

"I see, it seems that I really misunderstood......"

Psychological Shift: 99.8%

Zheng Shu sighed, although in his current form he didn't have the function of sighing, he did sigh in his heart.

Feeling the psychological deviation that was about to reach the limit, Zheng Shu no longer hesitated, and finally turned his head to look at the earth.

On the mysterious island, the three goddesses are still playing happily, and according to the gods' view of time, they will probably not realize that they are gone until an endless period of time.

In the divine realm of Olympus, the twelve main gods sat together again, and Zeus also happened to glance at him, looking at Zheng Shu who was leaving, with a smile on his face.

On one of the playing floors, Atalanta smiled disdainfully as she looked at the golden apples her opponent had dropped.

Without hesitation, he ran to the finish line, looked at the frightened challenger, and pulled out the longbow in his hand to execute him.

"That's right...... How about I make one last deal with you, to help me cover up this part of the history of this earth, so that the newly born restraining force does not know the specific situation, how about it? ”

Zheng Shu suddenly thought of something again, glanced at the huge amount of influence factor he had obtained after devouring Oort, and finally made a deal with the will that had been conveying friendly emotions to him.

This is also to be able to protect the people related to you as much as possible, so that they are not targeted by the newly born restraining force.

Although he didn't speak, Zheng Shu could clearly see that the earth was suddenly covered with a strange layer of light, and when the light dissipated, although there was no change on the surface, Zheng Shu found that he could no longer see through the timeline.

"Thanks!"

Green light emanated from Zheng Shu's spaceship-like body, and quickly disappeared into the universe.
