Chapter 41: Elrich, the Serpent of the World
[Many times it is the appearance that deceives the dead, and the appearance of scary does not mean that the heart is vicious, such as: Ulrich, the snake of the world! ] - 20th day of the 4th era of the Guangming 147th opossum]
I don't know how long it took for Ulrich to wake me up.
"Master, do you want to go up?" He asked me.
"Ho~ Have you got it right? Okay, go back. I rubbed my eyes and sat up to answer him.
As a result, this unreliable snake actually said this to me:
"Okay, yes, but I may not be able to go up!"
At this time, I didn't react, but just jokingly asked, "What's going on?" Too full to crawl? ”
I didn't know that this guy was really right by me, and he said, "That's pretty much it, master! Ulrich realized that he might be about to evolve, and he felt a little like he was about to molt. ”
I still didn't feel anything wrong, so I said as a matter of course: "Then you just have to molt, what's there to worry about?" ”
However, the situation began to get a little out of control, and Ulrich said in a panic: "That's not the case, master! Ulrich's molting takes a long time, and it consumes a lot of souls, and I'm worried that it will delay your big event, so I would like to ask you if I want to take you out first and then come back to evolve? ”
"Oh, then take me to the exit, and I'll go back to the mountains by myself!"
"That, that, master, Oliver can't seem to move now, can't go ashore, hehehe......"
Oulrich said something that made me faint, still smiling awkwardly.
This sentence directly drove away all my sleepy bugs, and I realized that the matter was going to be big, so I was so anxious that I raised my voice and shouted: "Can't go up?" What the hell! So high, and you're so big, how can I take you up? It's a big trouble now, it's really annoying! ”
"Master, master, there will be no trouble, there will be no trouble, you can go up first and then summon Ou Lich with the summoning technique to succeed."
I was very skeptical of Ulrich's method and asked him in disbelief, "Are you sure you can?" I haven't used summoning yet, so I don't know how to summon you; And are you sure that the summoning spell can succeed in such a place of magic and divine power? ”
"Yes, yes, as long as the master uses the summoning spell on it, and if you hold on a little longer, Ou Lich will have a way to go up."
"Then try, I'll go up first, you wait for my signal."
Faced with the predicament in front of me, I could only bitterly agree, and then it took a lot of effort to climb ashore and begin to use the summoning spell that I had never used before.
"Ulrich-Orich——, is the passage big enough?" I struggled to prop up a huge, somewhat outrageously outrageous summoning passage.
"Master, too small—bigger—bigger—still small—"
I've been expanding the channel, and as a result, this unreliable snake is still small.
So I thought, "Okay! Since you don't think it's enough, then the master will fight it today, and directly open the passage to the top of the world's center of the earth, to see that you are still not small.
"Now—is it okay?" I gritted my teeth and asked him after opening.
"Master, it's okay!"
"Then hurry up, it's hard to support such a large passage, hurry up—" I was almost half-kneeling with such an exaggerated summoning door.
Before I could finish speaking, Ulrich's big head was already in front of me.
"Master, come to me quickly, I can draw divine power from the river of gods and give it to you, so that it won't be so difficult."
I was on the verge of collapse thinking: Finally say someone - phew, it's useful!
With the supply of divine power transmitted by Ou Lich, it is indeed much easier to support the summoning channel, and I can finally talk to Ou Li Xi normally:
"That's a good move! I didn't think you still had this ability. ”
"Thank you host for the compliment! I'll take you to the exit when Oliver comes out. ”
Looking at Ulrich's huge and incomparable body, I suddenly thought of the third defensive wall of the Behemoth Manor: isn't this an existing defensive wall? Isn't it the best defensive wall to summon Ulrich to the Behemoth Manor, let him go there, and then molt? I'm a genius! It's decided, no matter what, Oliver will be brought back to molt.
Thinking of this, I hurriedly said to Ou Lich: "Ou Lich, I want to discuss something with you!" ”
Ou Lixi, who was still trying to drill outside the summoning passage, hurriedly replied: "Master, if you have something to say, Ou Lixi will do it for you at the expense of his life, but I don't dare to discuss." ”
"Okay, then you're welcome, I want you to go to my manor to shed your skin."
Ou Lich, who was still trying to drill out, hesitated a little and said: "Master, this may be a little difficult, I am too big now, and the crypt leading to the center of the world is too small, it will be stuck in the cave, what should I do?" ”
"Hahaha, there's a summoning spell!" I smirked.
"Alas! That's right, master, you're so smart, why didn't Ulrich think of it? But this will require a lot of divine power, master, can you support it? ”
"You stupid, magic or something, can't we take some from this river and bring it to it and use summoning while drinking?"
"Reasonable, reasonable, or the master is smart!" Oliver excitedly agreed.
Ulrich's body thinner and thinner as he went back, speeding through the summoning passage halfway through it.
When Ulrich came ashore, his huge body rattled the stones on the shore, and some of them fell into the river of magic (which is the new name I gave the river), and I quickly asked him to move in, fearing that he would crush the area, and then I jumped into the river and dived down.
But—
"What's going on? Why can't I feel any buoyancy—ah—damn Ulrich, I believe in your evil, you cheat labor—ah—"
"Plop"
I fell into the blue water, which is what Ulrich calls the bottom river, and this time I was really drowning.
"Gurgling ......."
The blue river with golden threads poured into my mouth without money, and almost killed me.
Finally, after a few struggles, I got used to the pitifully weak buoyancy at the bottom of the magic Kamigawa; Then I began to swim to the cliff to hold on, and began to gasp for breath, and scolded in fear for a while: "Damn Olich, you dare to pit labor, wait for labor-management to go up and see how I clean you up!" ”
After scolding, I took out all the containers and filled the river water, I don't know how much divine power will be used to open the passage to summon Olich, so I will try to fill everything I can.
In the process of loading the water of the Kamigawa, I observed the environment and things at the bottom of the river.
I saw that on the cliff wall here, there would be golden streamers from time to time, and the things floating in it were golden balls and dark blue objects like lazuli.
Curious, I tried to collect both objects as much as I could, and at the same time took a lot of effort to dig up a few large rocks from the cliff face.
I wanted to continue diving, but when I thought of what I had just encountered, I was afraid for a while, and I quickly gave up this terrible thought.
When he returned to the shore, he scolded Ulrich: "Ulrich, you pig, fool, labor and management were almost killed by you, you are a pig without a brain!" ”
Ou Li Xi was scolded by me a little confused, the message conveyed to me by the two big eyeballs was the taste of innocence, but he didn't dare to get angry, just asked me aggrievedly: "Master, did Ou Li Xi do something wrong?" Make you so angry! ”
'How dare you say that!' Kamigawa is hard to do, 'Is that what you said?' I wasn't so angry when I didn't ask, but when he asked me, I was so angry that my lungs were about to explode.
"Yes, it's hard for anyone to dive down but us ancient gods ......," Ulrich replied to me innocently.
"I believe you're a ghost! As soon as Lao Tzu jumped down and fell to the bottom, he was almost drowned below, and you still have the face to say that it is difficult to dive! I almost shouted at this sentence that interrupted him.
Ou Lixi was speechless for a moment, his eyes as big as a mountain opened wider, his face was full of incredulity, and his big mouth was excited and trembling and said: "Lord, master, you, have you fallen to the bottom?" ”
This guy's reaction made me a little stunned, and then the anger in my heart rose up and stopped inexplicably, but the resentment was still there, and I began to complain:
"Yes! The blue water of the river is as thick as syrup, and the buoyancy is equal to zero as much as he meows, and if the labor and management are not able to swim, they will be explained below today; You still have the face to say it's hard to dive in, liar—"
"Gollum!"
Ulrich swallowed and stammered:
"Did you bring some with you, then, master?"
"Of course - I almost drowned, and I can spare it!" I still huffed.
Ulrich suddenly elated and expectantly asked, "Lord master, can you give Ourich a bite?" Yes, just one bite. ”
I looked at Ulrich in front of me with strange eyes and asked, "What do you mean?" Listen to your tone, this seems to be awesome; I have left a teleportation magic array underneath, how much do you want to take it yourself, open your mouth and I will dock a spatial passage for you. ”
Speaking of establishing a magical space channel, I instantly reacted: That's right! Why am I so stupid, can't I build a spatial teleportation channel to take Oliver out? Or take that big risk to jump off and dry the bird? Damn, shit, damn it!
Thinking of this, he patted his head hard, but he didn't forget to open the spatial passage for Ou Lich to link to the bottom of the magic god river.
When he complained in his head that he was stupid, he forgot to turn off the spatial passage that connected to the water of the magic god, thanks to Orich, who could close his mouth and bite the spatial passage.
"Master, it's too much, it's too much, if you drink it again, Ou Lich will immediately fall into a deep sleep and enter a molting state, let's go out quickly, otherwise I'm afraid we won't be able to suppress the tiredness of sleep."
I came to my senses from the complaint at the hearing of Ulrich and followed him towards the exit.
"Master, the exit passage is in front - you go out first, Ulrich is here waiting for you!"
I had already decided not to use the summoning technique, so I said to Ou Lixi: "Ou Lixi, I plan to use the spatial teleportation technique to teleport you out, on the way here just now, I have carved the spatial magic array all over your body - don't run around, I will open the spatial teleportation channel for you as soon as I go out, wait for it!" ”
The exit passage is no different from walking into a flat super-large tunnel, and as soon as I enter the passage, I run all the way, and I am worried that Ulrich will enter the molting state in advance, and I will really not have time to cry.
"This passage is good, although there is a bend but it is still very recognizable, just run along the road, there is no fork in the road, happy and enjoyable!"
I had just had this thought when I got into a traffic accident.
"Bang!"
I was knocked upside down by something that suddenly came out of the way.
"What's that?"
I looked at the object that had hit me, and the other person was still struggling to get up, but it was clear that it wasn't quite good anymore.
It was a giant fire ant, red and a few points larger than an adult elephant.
"Corpse Movers! How did this thing end up here? Is there any corpse? - Oh no, it's the corpse of a god! ”
I muttered as I rushed to the corpse mover, pulled out my broadsword and stabbed it, then put it in the storage bag and continued on my way, reminding myself that now was not the time to think about this, and it didn't matter much to me, and the most important thing in front of me was to transport Oliver back to the Behemoth Manor, or my plans would be ruined.
Thinking about it, I couldn't help but get faster, like a gust of wind, and I used teleportation many times during this time, and I was able to teleport quickly and quickly over short distances as far as my eye could see.
As soon as I got out of the passage, I began to build a spatial teleportation array nearby, and began to connect with the spatial teleportation array on Orich's body.
Without letting Orichdo wait, I launched a spatial teleportation array to successfully teleport him to the ground, and then built a teleportation array to connect to the outside of the manor again.
It took about three hours to take the turn, and if it weren't for Ulrich's size, I might not have used it in ten minutes, and I could have done it all.
The sudden arrival of Ulrich's huge body caused the entire manor to be surrounded and ready to attack, but fortunately I shouted through the magic megaphone in time, otherwise the magic and arcane spells that Zofia, Otham, Alice, and Rebecca had prepared would have fallen.
"Stop! This is my friend Oulrich, he's here to help us build the third defensive wall, all of them are back to the inner layers of the manor and wait, don't come out! ”
After explaining to the people in the manor, I quickly woke up Ou Lishi again: "Hey, hey, Orich, Orich, bear with me first, listen to my command—turn right, turn right, and then go around the big mountain forest—see, that flat mountain forest—okay, now turn behind the mountain—yes, cross the cliff, and cross it directly—okay, and then turn back—yes, yes, cross that hill, okay—don't cross the river, don't cross the river, yes, go back, go back—bite your tail, bite bite— Bite in a little more, a little more - well, that's it, don't move, that's it! ”
When I was done, I was about to start admiring my masterpiece when Ulrich suddenly said:
"Master, this will be very uncomfortable for Orich, you want to fence off these places and protect this manor, right?"
"That's right! I feel good about that! ”
"But master! It's not comfortable at all, and Ulrich will be very uncomfortable! You just want to protect this place, but you can leave it to Ulrich, and Ulrich promises you a wall that you can be satisfied with. ”
"Well—that'll do! How are you going to figure it out yourself! "I thought about it and felt that what the snake said made sense, so I agreed to his request.
"Okay, master! Thank you hosts! ”
After Oulrich had finished speaking, he took me around the manor, and the mountains were cracked, the ground was turned over, and the forests were avoided.
Although I couldn't understand what he was going to do, I simply reminded: "Ulrich, I plan to turn the large piece of land in front of this manor into fertile land for crops, so you need to leave a lot of space, and I plan to divert water from the two rivers over there for irrigation." ”
"Good master! Will the other side of the hill be cleared for fields? I see a swamp over there, and there's some little thing in the forest, do you want to come in together? ”
"Those, those you look at, but it's dispensable!" I waved my hand and said aside.
"Good master! Then Ulrich will not be around, Ulrich can help you put a stone bridge over! ”
Then I saw him bite a mountain on the other side of the back mountain, and straddle the cliff side of the back mountain, like a thumbtack nailed to it.
After that, he made three full circles of his body around the manor, I don't know how he managed to spiral his body into three circles, I thought that at most it was more than one circle, but the result was not only that it could be extended to three circles, but also that the area of the first circle was twice as large as I had originally planned, and the second circle was larger, and the third circle, although a little smaller, was also larger than my original plan, and this was not over, he still had a large section of his body from the top of the back hill, all the way to the second defense area, Then the gigantic head hung at the entrance to the second defense zone.
I was puzzled and asked, "Ulrich, can you sleep with your head hanging like this?" And your big neck stretched out and covered the whole manor. ”
"Master, Ou Li Xi doesn't want to either, but your manor doesn't look like Ou Li Xi takes two bites, I didn't expect the gods inside to be so powerful, Ou Lishi's head stepped over, as if it was pressed by the whole earth!"
Only then did I realize that Ulrich had offended Ok Kwong and Kang Kang in the temple, so he was punished, but I blamed him for not reminding him.
So I was a little embarrassed and said, "Ahem, Ulrich is sorry!" This is my fault, I didn't remind you that the temple at the top of the Behemoth Manor is dedicated to the god of creation and order, the god of the management of all worlds, Aoguang, the goddess of flames, Pandora, the ancient mountain god, Kangkang, and the three goddesses of the moon, moonlit night, and moonlight, and there is also a god sleeping on the side, the golden beast and the earth beast god......"
"OMG! Master, who are you? Even the legendary lost god of creation and order, and the ancient mountain god Kang Kang, acknowledges your estate and protects it; No wonder Ulrich felt like he was carrying the whole land on his back - Ulrich still retracted his head and lay obediently next to him! ”
"What do you say? Aoguang is my brother, Kang Kang is my sister, let me tell them, as long as you are sincere in protecting the manor, you can pose as you want - oh, I forgot to sign a contract with you, no wonder I will be overwhelmed by their divine power, come on, come on, let's sign a new one. ”
"Master, Ulrich has divided his soul to you, isn't it still a contract?" Ulrich looked at me aggrievedly and said.
"That--can it be counted or not, I will pay you back the soul later, let's just make a blood contract instead!"
"Can it be? Master, why didn't you say it earlier? It's painful to split your soul—"
"Isn't that in a hurry! Come on, come on, you drink this cup of blood, let's change it! ”
I poured a cup of blood into Ulrich's mouth and signed the contract, and then returned the soul to him;
Compared to this small cup of blood, even Ou Lich's teeth were not enough to plug it, and then Ou Li Xi was a little too little, and said:
"Master, isn't it a little little, Olrich doesn't feel it—ah—master, what did you give me a drink? - It's hot, it's hot. ”
"It's my blood, it's normal, normal! They've all been drunk, and you're just- okay, another drunk! ”
Before I could finish speaking, Ulrich was already asleep, and his big head was lying in the door of the control room of the magic system next to the shelter.
Jumping off Ulrich's head, he went to the temple to report on the mission to Aoko.
Only then did I realize that this trip had taken me almost ten days, and it was no wonder that when I returned, the demonic beasts that caused the beast disaster were gone, leaving only a mess in front of the manor.
