Chapter 293: Big Pineapple
"Why hasn't this kid come back yet?" Aunt Yun stood on the city wall, muttering a little uneasily.
"Don't worry, his life is very big." Li Fayi didn't care.
It has been more than half a day since Su Ze chased the fifth-order polyp into the sea, and there has been no news until now, Aunt Yun can't help but be anxious.
The Dongli Holy Envoy on the side stroked his beard and said: "He should be fine, haven't you noticed that since he entered the sea, the number of foreign beasts that have landed has decreased significantly?" ”
"Indeed." Li Fayi overlooked the Luo Fanguo Beach next door, where the fight was still in full swing.
On the other hand, on the Dongli side, Su Ze incarnated as a flood to clear a wave of monsters, which has greatly reduced the pressure on the Dongli soldiers, and after Su Ze entered the sea, the number of strange beasts landing on Dongli Beach has also decreased significantly.
This is because Su Ze set out from Dongli and killed all the way, causing many strange beasts that were originally heading in the direction of Dongli to be killed by him halfway.
Now those shrimp soldiers and crab generals who have landed on the coastline of Shangdongli are not enough for the soldiers to kill.
The East Lebanese soldiers have recaptured the first line of defense.
Several Dongli guardian spirits were also completely relaxed and could take a rest.
As for the fifth-order alien beast Colorful Snail that was fighting with the Dongli Holy Envoy, after the fifth-order polyp escaped, it also found an opportunity to slip away.
The soldiers of Luo Fanguo next door looked at Dongli's side from time to time, and their hearts were full of envy.
They are being beaten by a group of strange beasts, but the Dongli soldiers are beating up a group of foreign beasts, why is the gap so big?
However, they didn't dare to make ghosts like before, and drove the strange beast to Dongli's side, mainly because Luo Fan had recently lost two overlords, and his strength was greatly damaged, and Dongli had several new overlords one after another, and the momentum was flourishing, so they had to restrain themselves.
Brother Ya fiddled with the psychic communication mobile phone, and after making sure that Su Ze could not be contacted, he understood that Su Ze should have left the communication range.
As the head of Amida as a communication base station, Su Ze has always carried it with him, so the communication range is calculated with Su Ze as the center, and it probably covers half of the city.
Since the mobile phone can't receive the base station signal, it means that Su Ze is far away from him.
"I really can't do it, I'll go find it." Brother Ya was also a little worried.
"Wait a little longer." Aunt Yun thought about it, but still persuaded her, at this time, it is also dangerous to enter the sea against the beast tide.
……
At this time, Su Ze, after absorbing the bloodline crystal, tried to use a few "space jumps", coupled with the memory inheritance from the bloodline crystal, he was already proficient in this skill.
After stomping a strange beast to death, he used "Liquid Life" again, turning his body into a stream of water, and continued to approach the source of the beast tide.
The further he went, the greater the density of the beast tide, and in the end, Su Ze's sight was densely packed with foreign beasts.
He knew he was probably very close to the source of the beast tide.
To be on the safe side, he did not rush forward any further, but slowly floated up to a position close to the surface of the sea.
There are relatively few exotic beasts that roam here, so it's safer.
Then, he opened the "Eye of Truth" and spread his sensory tentacles towards the bottom of the sea, exploring everything at the bottom of the sea and tracing the source of the beast tide.
Soon, he noticed something interesting, the sea was constantly converging on strange beasts from all directions, and it seemed that they were gathering there.
There is also a steady stream of strange beasts coming out of there, swimming straight in the direction of Lin Huazhou, forming a spectacular beast tide.
The source of the beast tide was in a deep trench.
What's in the trench? Why do all the beasts of the ocean flock there?
And why did these strange beasts go straight to Lin Huazhou to attack the human city after they came out?
Su Ze's perceptual tentacles quickly probed down, deep into the trench.
Fortunately, this trench is not too deep, he quickly reached the bottom, and below that, countless sea beasts are facing one direction like a pilgrimage, although Su Ze does not understand the language of beasts, he can also see their piety, as if he is meeting the gods.
But after a while, these strange beasts seemed to have received instructions from the gods, and they were full of momentum, like high-spirited warriors.
They swallowed a mouthful of sea mud under their feet, then turned around and swam out of the trench and attacked directly towards Lin Huazhou.
And immediately after that, a new batch of alien beasts will enter the trench......
Eating dirt?
Su Ze was a little incomprehensible to the last action of the alien beasts devouring the sea mud.
What is the traditional custom of sea beasts?
He carefully explored the sea mud at the bottom of the trench with his perceptual tentacles, and found some fine golden dust in it!
From the golden dust, Su Ze felt a familiar breath - golden energy!
I see...... Su Ze suddenly figured out why the golden energy could be extracted from the bodies of those alien beasts he killed.
It turned out that it was because they had swallowed a mouthful of the soil here before they set out on the expedition.
Through the various pictures seen here, Su Ze has been able to infer a lot of information.
It seems that a higher-level alien beast ordered them to attack Lin Huazhou...... This was not surprising to Su Ze, after all, the news he got had always said that a new king was born among the alien beasts, and it was the "new king" who might start the beast tide.
"So, the new king is hiding under this trench, and all the strange beasts have come to see the new king?
"And that clay with golden energy is the reward that the new king gives to all the beasts who come to meet them?"
Su Ze was hesitating whether to spread his perceptual tentacles forward to get a glimpse of the new king's majestic posture.
It is possible for the perceptual tentacles to be perceived, and it may be dangerous for him when the time comes.
He thought about it seriously, although he was still only at the overlord level, his strength had been pushed to the supreme level by the "Blood Devouring" skill.
Moreover, his "True Eye" skill has been upgraded to the fifth order before, and he can be regarded as a supreme powerhouse, using the fifth-order skill "True Eye" to spy on the new king.
Compared with direct mental power exploration, the biggest advantage of the skill "True Eye" is that it is difficult to be discovered, and it can basically hide from a lifeform that is one level stronger than him.
Theoretically speaking, now Su Ze's perceptual tentacles can hide from the legendary powerhouses and sixth-order beasts, and they will not be discovered at all.
What is the strength of that new king? Will I be able to spy on it with my perceptual tentacles?
The news from the mother tree and Lin Huaguo all said that the new king was about to be born, which meant "soon", which means that the current new king was not worthy of his name, and he had not really become a seventh-order god-level beast.
That's still the sixth level, my perceptual tentacles, it shouldn't be able to find it......
It should be right, if it really became a seventh-order alien beast, it would have personally attacked Lin Huazhou a long time ago, unless those aliens had any hole cards, otherwise the Blue Star human beings would have no power to resist in front of a god-level alien beast.
Su Ze thought about it, but he still planned to take a risk and use his perceptual tentacles to spy on the reality of this new king.
He chose to take risks, not to satisfy his curiosity, but because of the magical golden energy.
Having personally experienced the magic of golden energy, Su Ze was eager to know the source of that golden energy, and if he had the opportunity, it was best to obtain more.
He is still only the overlord level, and the supreme level and the legend level behind him all need to absorb two tubes of high-level extracts, adding up to a total of four tubes of extracts, if there is not enough golden energy to help, he doesn't know how many years it will take to digest these four tubes of extracts.
Su Ze set himself the goal of becoming a god-level powerhouse.
He didn't want to be a savior, but whether it was for self-preservation or to fulfill the commission of the mother tree, he had to become a god-level powerhouse.
Only by becoming a god can we leave Blue Star and break free from this chaotic quagmire.
Judging from the current situation, there is not much time left for him to grow up with peace of mind, he needs to use external forces to speed up, and golden energy is currently the most suitable thing for him to encounter.
As long as there was enough golden energy, it was entirely possible for him to become a god quickly.
So he decided to take the risk......
Of course, you can't be too reckless.
Su Ze detached a clone and controlled the clone to slowly float down towards the trench.
Whether he is the main body or the clone, he is in a liquid state, fused with the seawater, and is extremely difficult to detect.
The clone has both a soul and a body, and can unleash any of Su Ze's skills.
The biggest limitation is that the clones can't be too far apart from each other, otherwise the connection will be severed, causing the smaller clone to lose control and "die".
However, Su Ze didn't intend to let the doppelganger dive directly to the bottom of the trench, and only stopped at the entrance of the trench.
The clone kept a limit distance from him, and then began to use the "True Eye" skill, causing the clone to emit sensory tentacles to spy on the new king at the bottom of the sea.
In this way, even if the new king detects it, Su Ze can directly abandon the clone and quickly escape.
The perceptual tentacles released by the clone covered the bottom of the trench, and Su Ze finally saw what the beasts were worshipping.
Is that...... A big pineapple?
Su Ze was a little unsure.
At first glance, a yellow and clear thing is inserted in the bottom of the sea, round, more than ten meters high, and its body is covered with thorn-like bumps, like a big pineapple.
But if you look closely, it seems to be a little different.
It doesn't have the thorny leaves of a pineapple on the top, and it's not heard of a pineapple growing on the bottom of the sea.
This thing is the new king of the alien beasts?
Su Ze felt a little different from what he thought.
He thought that the new king of the alien beasts was a majestic and domineering guy, but he didn't expect it to be a big pineapple under the sea.
Moreover, when his sensory tentacles touched the large pineapple, it did not react at all.
It seems that his worries were too much before.
Su Ze tested it again with his perceptual tentacles, and when he saw that the big pineapple had never responded, he became bold and used his perceptual tentacles to investigate the big pineapple at 360 degrees without dead ends.
After a detailed investigation of the large pineapple, Su Ze suddenly thought of a marine animal - a sea squirt!
He found that the large pineapple seemed to be a sea squirt.
Sea squirts are amazing creatures, and many people mistake them for plants.
They resemble tadpoles when they are young, have large heads, and are good swimmers.
A few hours after birth, they find a suitable object to attach to, "root" like a plant, and begin to metamorphose retrogradely.
In the process, some of their bodies will degenerate, they will lose the ability to move, and even worse, they will eat their own brains!
From then on, they become brainless, unable to move, unable to eat, and only absorbing and spitting water.
It stands to reason that the chances of this lower animal evolving into a strange beast are very small, but even the polyps have evolved into a fifth-order alien beast, so it is not so surprising that a strange beast sea squirt appears here.
I just don't know if this thing has grown back after evolving into a strange beast.
If it doesn't have a brain, then it doesn't respond to its own probing, which is normal.
"Huh......" Su Ze suddenly noticed that there was a gap on the surface of the sea squirt.
It seems that someone has opened a door to the sea squirt.
As soon as Su Ze wanted to probe his perceptual tentacles, he saw that the "door" suddenly opened.
Someone really opened a door on the sea squirt, and that door was not small, four or five meters high.
"Am I mistaken, the sea squirt is not the new king of the beasts, the thing that lives in the sea squirt is?
"That's right, how can a brainless thing be king!"
The door was opened, but only a slit was opened, and a pair of straight eyes poked out.
Those little eyes seem to reveal caution and caution, as well as a bit of obscene temperament.
Only the eyes are exposed, and nothing else.
Those eyes reminded Su Ze of the eyes of a crab.
Could it be that the new king is a crab?
With just a pair of eyes, he revealed a lewd temperament, which seemed to be a bit out of line with Su Ze's understanding of the "new king".
Su Ze didn't know if the guy behind the door could detect his perceptual tentacles, but he still tried to poke the perceptual tentacles behind the door, wanting to get a glimpse of the new king.
He saw a red guy behind the door sneaking around the crack in the door, poking out his little eyes and looking around.
It is a strange beast that resembles both a crab and a shrimp, it has a long "tail" that curls up into a zigzag, and its belly is different from that of shrimp and crabs, and it is very weak and fragile at first glance.
Hermit crab.
Su Ze recognized it at a glance, this was a common hermit crab on the seaside.
However, this hermit crab is very large, three or four meters tall, and it does not have a "house".
Too big to find the right home?
That shouldn't be enough, there are a lot of all kinds of conch beasts in the ocean.
Su Ze suddenly understood that this big squirt was its "house".
The hermit crab is bullying people without brains and forcibly taking possession of other people's sea squirts.
But why can this hermit crab become the "new king"? It doesn't look like that piece of material!
Moreover, the hermit crab is apparently unaware of the presence of sensory tentacles.
Obviously, it is a sixth-order alien beast that survives to death, whether it is in the ocean or on land, there are many ferocious sixth-order alien beasts, why can it become a new king?
For a while, Su Ze couldn't tell whether the so-called new king was a sea squirt or a hermit crab.
Or did he guess wrong......
There is no so-called new king here, it's just that this hermit crab has some means to bewitch the beast's heart, so that these sea beasts can listen to its command?
In short, even if the hermit crab is not a new king, it is definitely not simple, just because it can make so many strange beasts worship, even including fourth-order and even fifth-order foreign beasts, it is definitely not simple.
But whether it was a new king or not, Su Ze didn't really care that much about it, what he really cared about was golden energy.
His perceptual tentacles quickly swept the inside of the sea squirt, and found that this hermit crab was quite good at enjoyment, which was really not polite at all, and dug out the inside of other people's sea squirts in a half-empty state, creating a comfortable nest for himself.
In particular, a "storage room" was dug up to store some items of hermit crabs.
Su Ze sensed that the tentacles swept over the "storage room", and sure enough, he found that there were two "gold mines" hidden there!
It was two fist-sized stones with abundant golden energy.
"Is this some kind of evolutionary ore that I haven't heard of? Or is it just an ordinary stone that has been impregnated with golden energy? ”
Su Ze wasn't sure, but the golden energy he extracted from killing the beast before couldn't be stored in his body for a long time, but the golden energy in this stone seemed to be able to be stored for a long time.
Su Ze thought about the two "gold mines", but after thinking about it, he felt that it was too difficult.
The hermit crab beast looked a little obscene, but the level was definitely not low, and he shouldn't be an opponent.
And this guy is so cautious that he only opens the door by one crack, and even if he blends into the sea squirt, once the hermit crab closes the door, he will be trapped inside.
Taking such a big risk, just for those two "gold mines", it doesn't feel cost-effective.
The golden energy contained in the two "gold mines" is more and more limited, so it is better for him to go back and kill more strange beasts and extract them slowly, there is no risk.
What Su Ze wants to know more is where these two "gold mines" come from.
And where did the golden dust come from in the mud at the bottom of the trench?
He turned his attention to the rest of the trench in an attempt to find some clues, and his sensory tentacles reached into the mud beneath the ground, sensing the golden dust mixed in with the algae that was invisible to the naked eye.
It seems that the closer you get to the mud where the sea squirt is located, the more golden dust it contains.
Su Ze's mind moved, and he felt that the tentacles were reaching out to the ground, and the golden dust seemed to be only sprinkled on the surface of the sea mud, and less than half a meter underground, there was no golden dust at all.
However, when Su Ze's perceptual tentacles probed under the sea mud where the sea squirt had taken root, it was suddenly bounced open!
Su Ze was shocked in his heart, this was the first time he had encountered such a situation, could it be that the perceptual tentacles had been discovered by someone.
He carefully controlled the sensing tentacles to approach the sea squirt again, and this time he put his speed to the fullest, getting closer and closer, and finally saw a patch of purple!
It seemed to be a purple barrier, and he tried to see what was inside, only to get a little closer before being bounced away again.
However, Su Ze found that around the purple barrier, there was a circle of golden fine gravel!
What emanated from it was the golden energy he was familiar with.
Although it is much smaller than the two "gold mines" of hermit crabs, it is better than the large number of them, and the sum of the bits and pieces is definitely larger than the two "gold mines" of hermit crabs.
Really...... Su Ze guessed that within the purple barrier, it was very likely that there was the source of golden energy.
Within the purple barrier, there should be more "gold mines"!
Thinking about it, Su Ze felt that if he went back like this, he might not be able to sleep at night.
Even if you don't say how much "gold mine" you can get, at least you have to figure out what is going on.
Of course, it's better to be able to make a good fortune.
The biggest advantage of the "gold mine" compared to the golden energy extracted by his own killing beasts is that it can be stored, and he can take it out and use it at any time when he digests the extract in the future.
Of course, the more the merrier.
He decided to go down and give it a try and see if he could catch something and make a discovery.
Su Ze's daring to take risks also has something to do with the fact that the big squirt and hermit crab don't seem to be very smart.
Of course, he still only planned to let the doppelganger go down, dive in liquid form, quietly investigate the situation under the bottom of the sea squirt, and scoop up some "gold" with his hands.
