287 Flowers dedicated to Algernon [Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, 3-in-1 Ask for a monthly pass!] 】
Abyss.
Arctic Demon Domain.
In the deep canyon space, the dark qi and blood mist were condensed by a biting chill.
At the bottom of the valley, there is a magic cave made of space debris, exuding a rare blood mist.
The Faceless Buddha sits in the air in the golden Buddha hall.
A black robe covers the whole body, there is no wind and it is automatic, ethereal like the wind, you can't see your legs and feet, and you don't have facial features on your face.
Only six compound eyes were opened on the top of the head to observe the heavens.
There are a series of Buddhist beads rolling in his hand, each of which is a stubborn stone of different colors, pits, and sizes.
Suddenly, the beads got stuck.
The Faceless Buddha shook his head and sighed.
The two-headed male and female auspicious Ruizi appeared in the center of the Buddha hall.
Before the Faceless Buddha could ask, the two-headed woman began to gush out.
Her speed of speech is extremely fast, multi-line narrative, regardless of priority, the result is the cause, and she also mixed a lot of praise for Lu Chen, wanting to fool the master.
The two-headed man on the side who listened was stunned.
The Faceless Buddha cleared his mind.
Things got worse than he expected!
"What, after the Star Eater Luna was taken away by the White Devil Ammonite True Person, she was snatched away by the Immortal Fleet, and finally taken away by the Raven Demon who suddenly appeared after being missing for nearly a hundred years?"
Two-Headed Female:
“……”
It is worthy of the master!
The two-headed man hurriedly blamed himself:
"Master, it's all because the two disciples are eager to make meritorious contributions and act without authorization, which caused this catastrophe."
One of the faceless Buddha's eyes rose from the top of his head to the center of his face, staring directly at the two of them.
"You just need to wait for Agil to come out of the mountain, if you have to take Luna to act in advance, the Star Eaters in the entire Demon Domain are already less than a hundred, you two fools who are not enough to succeed and more than to lose, do you want to swallow you for the sake of the teacher!"
"Yes!"
The two-headed man is categorical and imposing.
The two-headed woman was timid.
"Ahem, Master, it's just the loss of an entry-level Star Eater, the most critical issue now is not the Raven Demon reappearing in the universe...... It's a black dragon again, it's a crow demon, and Lu Chen, who is lawless and handsome, no matter how you look at it, the galaxy is going to change the sky! ”
The two-headed man was slightly stunned, and then proposed:
"Master, the three imperial generals are chasing the crow demon at the same time, which will inevitably affect the environment of the abyss route, and the troubled times are coming, maybe we can take the opportunity to complete the unfinished business of the year, for example, find the body of the demon venerable who was sealed by the immortal slayer, or contact the demon queen who has been missing for thousands of years, such as opening the business of becoming an immortal in the demon domain again......"
The Faceless Buddha waved his hand impatiently.
"Are these things you can discuss? I will participate in the Five Domains Conference immediately, you stay here, everything is arranged by the Vatiman, don't make trouble for me. ”
"What about Agil?"
"Agil will do it himself."
“……”
……
Imperial Headquarters.
Silver Heart, Golden Coordinate Star Field.
There are a total of six calibrated stars orbiting the galactic black hole, artificially pointing the way to the Milky Way.
Among them, the Qianbiao Star, that is, the Emperor Star, was the political center of the entire empire back then.
It is now the retirement home of the 39th Emperor of the Empire, Polleson Hillworth.
The current political center of the empire is the Heavenly Court located in the North Mark, which is controlled by the patriarchs of the ten major families and the princes and princesses.
Of course, the Six Marked Stars are the emperor's territory, and they are the residence of the emperor and the princes and princesses, even if they are the patriarchs of the ten major families or the generals of the empire, they can't set foot without being summoned by the emperor.
The seven solid artificial planets under the jurisdiction of the Emperor himself, which the emperor himself resides, have completed deindustrialization, de-agriculture, and de-militarization hundreds of years ago, and have completely turned into modern garden planets with beautiful scenery, developed education and commerce.
However, a hundred years ago, it was troubled by the Raven Demon, and the Dry Beacon Star had to be armed again, and the First Fleet of the Empire was stationed here.
Dry Mark, the first planet, Begonia Star.
That is, the place where the emperor lives, is the real emperor star.
The concentration of aura is comparable to that of ancient times, covering a large area of silver forests and begonia forests, mixed with various rare gardens.
The highest place is the Imperial Palace.
The former palace was a hundred miles long, extremely luxurious, but it was burned down by the crow demon a hundred years ago, and now it is full of begonia forests.
The new palace is located in a corner of the silver grove at the foot of the mountain, on the edge of a sparkling lake, which is low-key, deep and mysterious.
In addition to the emperor himself and the major concubines, there were many princes and princesses who also lived together in the palace at that time.
Today's palace is only inhabited by the emperor himself, a few imperial concubines, Princess Yinlan, and two little princes and princesses who are not yet ten years old, and it is much deserted.
The emperor himself is old, and he has long been out of political affairs, and all matters of the empire have been handed over to the Heavenly Inquisition, and the emperor only retains a veto power, but has not exercised it once.
Sparkling lakeside.
Polson Hillworth, who is over 500 years old, is like a lonely old lion, sitting in a hospital bed fishing.
The tall, aging body is stuck with tubes, dripping, and there is no longer the imperial momentum of the past.
The hand can no longer hold the rod, and the fully automatic rod can only be controlled by mind to determine the timing, angle and force of the rod.
Concubines, palace maids, princes, and princesses are not allowed to get close to each other for 100 meters.
Only Princess Yinlan is an exception.
A snow-white pegasus floats down to the lake.
The slender girl in the snow uniform jumped off her horse, took off her uniform, and walked lightly to the emperor's side.
"Father."
"Shh......h
The Emperor looked displeased.
"I allowed you to get close, but I didn't allow you to ride a horse to get close, even if the horse won't hurt me, it's not good to scare the fish in the lake, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch a fish today, go back to the market and buy a big fish for me."
"It's already been bought, Father."
Princess Yinlan took out a koi fish from the Imperial Beast Bead and quietly put it into the mahogany barrel containing the fish.
The Emperor coughed dryly twice, and his face returned to calm.
"Ahem, what's the matter?"
"Erchen has been attacked on the Bailu."
"Really? I thought you were directing and acting yourself, but that's fine, no one can hurt you. ”
"It's the ten major families in order to deter the new generation of adventurers and prevent adventurers from taking refuge in their sons."
"This is the path you have chosen, there is nothing that can help you as a father, you are only twenty years old, you are still a girl, and you are an idol of the empire, there is no need to fight so hard."
"Erchen needs the key to the forbidden laboratory of the Truth Academy, if he doesn't take something real, how can he recruit talents?"
"The Court of Heaven will not agree."
"I don't agree to this little thing, and I don't take the emperor's family seriously, so my father vetoes every one of their decisions."
"You crossed the line, Yinlan, when I say Heavenly Inquisition, I mainly mean that your imperial brother will not agree."
"The sons crossed the line because the troubled times were coming...... The Raven Demon who burned down the palace a hundred years ago has reappeared, Father. ”
"What!"
The emperor jumped up violently from the hospital bed.
……
White Dew.
Floating island in August, midnight.
Lu Chen, also fishing by the lake.
In the battle of the black hole, Lu Chen's body was stretched to the limit, and he received several avoidance prompts, making him very tired.
He was going to rest well on the Bailu for a while, and when his wife's Immortal Lin Grass grew into condensation, it was refined into a half-immortal pill, and after a wave of upgrades, it was not too late to go to sea to adventure.
When the time comes, directly meet with the Blue Wandering Spirit and the Ancient Martial Arts Adventure Group to explore the ruins of the fairy world.
Or join up with the Dragon Seeker Alliance and go find the Dragon Balls.
Or two in one, they're the same project.
It's been four months at sea, and Lu Chen's adventures have been high-intensity, and it's time to enjoy it.
Stringing fat earthworms, Lu Chen raised his hand and threw out the fishing line far away.
Ding dong!
The hook rippled in the calm waters, crushing the moonlight.
"Huh?"
Lu Chen sensed a different aura in the ripples.
With a shook, another inverted ripple covered the water, allowing the water to calm again.
Only then did I realize that there was no longer a reflection of the moon in the water.
Instead, it became a glowing wreath.
A humanoid figure stepped out of the garland and floated above the water ten feet away.
Just a projection of the moonlight that interferes.
It was a handsome young man with handsome features, but slightly short, wearing a black wreath on his head and a basic blue and white martial arts uniform.
With your arms on your chest, you can't live forever.
However, except for the black wreath on the top of the head and the backline ripples in the eyes that are somewhat conspicuous, there is no particularly strong momentum.
Algernon!
Lu Chen was repeatedly sure that Algernon's original figure was not on the White Dew, otherwise with his strength, he would not be able to destroy the entire interstellar giant ship.
A man who can create his own and drive the power of the Chosen One, no matter how much he cultivates, is definitely a supreme powerhouse!
Lu Chen could almost guess what he was doing.
However, Algernon did not go straight to the point, but observed Lu Chen's fishing, and did not appear for a long time.
He suddenly noticed an interesting thing: the fish in the lake will deliberately avoid the bait of Lu Chen, even if a stupid fish approaches, they will run away immediately after taking a bite of the bait, and they are never greedy.
It is as if the bait of road dust exudes a certain atmosphere that is different from the lake water, the bottom of the lake, the rest of the food, the rest of the earthworms, and even the whole world.
It's so different, and it's so dangerous.
But it seemed to be a little different from the side effects of the ordinary Chosen Power, but he couldn't see the specific details for a while.
It seems that the woman discovered this earlier than he did, and taught Lu Chen's power of choice.
Algernon frowned and proposed:
"You can try fishing with the power of the chosen one I taught you, and maybe it will be different."
Lu Chen spread his hands and said helplessly:
"I've tried many times, and even made a lot of innovations, but in the end, I just blew up the fish in the lake one after another."
Algernon was helpless and no longer cared about his fishing.
"You should know what I'm looking for you."
Lu Chen was still staring at the lake, looking calm and relaxed, the clouds were light and the wind was light, and he only sighed:
"Grey Raven, it's a pity, although I've been friends with her for a long time, I didn't talk to her at all this time."
Algernon frowned, feeling that this was unreasonable.
"It's strange that she didn't take you away, perhaps, you just didn't meet on the surface, but you had contact secretly."
Lu Chen was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect to be guessed by him.
He did make contact with the Crow, but it was just a remnant of Ellie's subconscious, and it scared the Raven himself.
"Maybe, anyway, I can't help you with this matter, she seems to be collecting white devils, plus there is such a big red python with her, you can start from these two points and try to track her."
Algernon wasn't going to let the road dust go like that.
"I'm betting on you, and since you can't help me, I can only reluctantly abolish your chosen power."
Lu Chen was speechless, what about the master?
"Asking someone to help can't just rely on punishment, it has to be rewarded to be more efficient, isn't it?"
Algernon was stunned.
It seems that this kid really has a way!
"What reward do you want?"
"Hmm...... Do you have any more powerful exercises? ”
"Isn't the power of the chosen one enough? Too greedy. ”
"Don't you have a lot of skills."
"No, the rest of the exercises you don't look down on, you need to practice for a long time to be effective."
"Is there a treasure there?"
"No, using treasures is an insult to a warrior."
"What about the money?"
"I don't need money, I can grab everything I need."
However, Lu Chen has seen a lot of news about Algernon.
This guy likes to rob the rich and help the poor, and he can't use up the things he robs, so he distributes them to the poor on the spot, and has no habit of saving.
In order to worry that after he left, the wealthy family would seek money back from the poor, or even take revenge, Algernon even gave the wealthy family a complete set of physical destruction.
As soon as many wealthy families and royal relatives saw Algernon coming, they were so frightened that they hurriedly signed a contract to give Algernon and the poor a large amount of property, promising that they would never ask for any money.
Hence the folk hymn "Flowers for Algernon", from which the wreath on his head comes from.
As a result, Algernon has become the person who has been hacked by "Imperial Entertainment Weekly" the most in the past 100 years.
Like Ammonite Zhenren, no matter how many ordinary people are killed, they are nameless.
If Algernon kills a few wealthy families, he will become the blackest cub in history.
What the so-called history is, Lu Chen will understand.
"In that case, I need a living Netherworld of more than 100 heads...... It's not hard for you, is it? ”
"It's not difficult, it's not difficult, but I also need you to help me find that woman."
"Okay, you can wait a minute."
Lu Chen turned around and went to the Danfang to find Madame.
Retrieved the white Immortal Core.
Madame asked curiously:
"Who are you talking to at the lake?"
Apparently, Mrs. August did not see the projection of Algernon.
"A friend, I want to find that woman, I'll help him set a place to try."
Lu Chen held the underworld core in his hand, exerting soul resonance, sensing the faint soul power left by the ammonite real person.
Tried to establish a remote sensing with his ontological soul power, and soon found out the approximate location of the ammonite real deity.
Subsequently, through several calculations of different positions, a very precise bearing was deduced.
However, it is only a real-time position, and the distance cannot be determined.
Lu Chen left the core behind and turned back to the lake.
"I only calculated the specific direction of one of that woman's subordinates, and the direction was accurate to the specific star field, but I couldn't calculate the specific distance."
"Why didn't you give me the core?"
"Do you resonate with your soul?"
"No, it won't."
"That's useless."
"I can take you with me."
"Both of you have taught me the power of the Chosen One, I will not side with any of you, and it is conditional to promise to help you."
"Well, since I have a precise direction, if I can't find that woman again, I can't do it...... Farewell. ”
After saying that, the figure above the lake suddenly disappeared, and the moonlight sprinkled on the lake again.
Lu Chen didn't pay much attention to this matter.
What does the two masters have to do with dog-eat-dog?
Anyway, Kung Fu has already learned the hand.
Next, Lu Chen soaked in the hot springs every day, played games, and ate some rare food...... and fishing.
Pill Swallow, Pill Swallow and thirty-eight human female slave girls, in their spare time, all gathered around the road dust, trying their best to help him fish, although in the end it was useless, but the side door and left road that came up in the process, the whimsical ideas that collided were still very interesting.
Golia's life is even more boring, shopping and buying, indulging in games, drinking, bathing, and coming over from time to time to see the progress of Lu Chen's fishing, and mocking a few words.
In addition to practicing the art of controlling spirits every day, Ellie also learned to cultivate Xianlin Grass with Mrs. August, and helped pill swallowing and swallowing pills to heal thirty-eight human female slave girls.
In addition to fishing, Lu Chen was also curious, how did Mrs. August turn the eighty-level Netherworld into fertilizer?
So, in his spare time, he also joined Ellie and his wife's life of planting medicine.
Lady August uses a special potion that can actually dissolve the core of the living body.
In the living state, a layer of flesh film outside the underworld core is dissolved into blood juice, which is then exported by special means, and some drugs are added to make a special fertilizer for the growth of Xianlin grass.
All this, Madame is operating in the Imperial Orb!
It can be seen that the means are exquisite.
After the flesh membrane outside the underworld is dissolved, it will soon consume the underworld power to grow.
As soon as the flesh membrane outside the underworld grows, it is dissolved by the lady, and the cycle repeats itself.
Lu Chen was dumbfounded.
This is a live peeling of the netherworld, Ling Chi as fertilizer.
Mrs. August cut the ghost leeks and flew up!
"No matter how terrifying the Netherworld is, it is still far from being compared to humans!"
However, after seeing the anti-heaven effect of the underworld flesh film fertilizer on the Xianlin grass, Lu Chen is really fragrant again.
The Xianlin grass is growing stronger and stronger, and in a blink of an eye, it has grown to the knees of road dust.
Xianlin grass is a millennial herbaceous plant, but under artificial cultivation, it can be shortened to several years, or even months.
And under the cultivation of Mrs. August's underworld flesh membrane, it will be able to condense in less than a month.
Xianlin grass has a delicate green and white main stem, and more than a dozen thorny green and black side stems.
The main stem is like an orchid grass, and after maturity, the back of the leaf can condense the fairy rain, which needs to be picked manually.
In addition to planting medicine, Mrs. August was not idle.
Every day, he is busy crushing the ninety-level underworld core into medicinal powder.
Because it is to be used as medicine for people to eat, it cannot be dissolved with special corrosive agents, and can only be ground by various physical means.
Madame only has a seventy-two level cultivation, and it is still a little difficult to grind the ninety-level White Demon Underworld Core without destroying its medicinal properties.
I had to ask Golia and Ellie to help one after another, one was responsible for decomposing the Underworld Core, and the other was responsible for the protection of the Spirit, but the effect was not very good, wasting one percent of the Underworld Core.
In the end, I had no choice, so I had to invite the road dust fairy who was busy fishing.
Lu Chen's fishing was very angry, and he reluctantly came to Mrs. Dan's room.
Neither Golia nor Ellie is there.
The lady sat cross-legged in front of the Dandan furnace, exhausted to the point of collapse, and her face was once again pale like that of a dead man, and a slender crow's feet appeared in the corners of her eyes.
Lu Chen asked curiously:
"Can't you do it with Golia and Ellie?"
Madame closed her eyes and rested.
The purple shawl and white lining were already soaked with sweat, and the vast bosom was undulating.
"Need the power of empathy and a purer dragon spirit."
"I'll try."
Lu Chen looked at the suspended underworld core in the Dan furnace, which had been dissipated by the power of the blood demon.
It is currently frozen and recovers the power of the Underworld.
"Well, with me, it's not a big problem."
Lu Chen said firmly.
Mrs. August's tone was tired.
"Really?"
Lu Chen nodded.
"You try the process of grinding the medicine first, and I'll see what the problem is and how I can help you."
Mrs. August smiled, and then swallowed a homemade ice-based healing elixir.
When the physical strength is restored, the capacity is re-transported, and the Dan furnace is started.
The two formations inside and outside the Dan furnace slowly lit up, and the red formations rotated in the opposite direction.
Lu Chen observed from the sidelines and quickly discovered the problem.
Madame can't juggle violent crushing with extracting medicinal power.
Too violent, it can shatter the Undercore, but it will lose a lot of medicinal power.
Too gentle, theoretically extracting medicinal power, but unable to shatter the Undercore.
No wonder even Golia and Ellie can't handle it.
Lu Chen sat beside the Dan furnace, facing his wife across the furnace, and worked together to run the extraction formation in the furnace.
When the furnace reaches the right temperature and the right spiritual power, Lu Chen begins to exert the combined force of resonance and critical hits.
A ripple of reverse lines rippled on the array outside the furnace, which instantly spread to the formation inside the furnace.
In the end, the core suspended in the heart of the furnace contracted, shattering the core with one blow, and exploded into a sky full of stars in the furnace, making a clanging sound in the furnace.
Lu Chen continued to exert critical resonance, and continued to smash these fine fragments of the Underworld Core Remains, blasting them into powder step by step.
Under the slight shock of the resonant force, the amplitude of the spread of the medicinal power was always stabilized.
This process lasted two hours, and it was busy from early evening until midnight.
Seeing that it was done, Lu Chen breathed a sigh of relief, stretched his waist, and asked:
"Ma'am, is it okay?"
There was no echo from the opposite side of the Dan furnace.
Lu Chen hurriedly bypassed the Dan furnace, only to find that his wife had passed out and his mouth was full of blood.
"It seems that Madame is also controlling the process of grinding medicine, and she has invisibly borne my crit resonance, so she naturally can't bear it for so long."
Fortunately, Madame was just overtired and exhausted, and the injury was not as big as the impact of the dragon spirit last time.
However, for the sake of safety, Lu Chen still hugged his wife to the jade bed and swallowed two healing pills for her.
After making sure that Madame's breath was stable, she turned to leave.
However, as soon as he got up, Lu Chen was dizzy for a while, and he realized that he had also reached his limit.
Just as he was about to grit his teeth and leave, he was suddenly hooked by a cold, sleek finger in his palm......
"You can rest here too." (End of chapter)
