Chapter 4: The Mighty Devil
"Although many times ......," the old arbor patted the seat.
"I think the big guy we're sitting on is noisy and distracting us witchers. ”
"The smell of dust from the burning Demon Source Coal also greatly reduced my sense of smell. ”
"But there is no doubt that times are advancing. ”
"When I was younger, we witchers didn't have armor, and even weapons weren't necessarily sharp. ”
"And now, even if it's a newly promoted first-order witcher. ”
"He can also have his own set of black iron-grade leather armor and sharp short knives, as well as a full-body shield necklace. ”
"In those days, the Witcher pistol was a luxury. ”
"Demon hunting bullets cost a lot of money to buy, and no one will waste demon hunting bullets to practice shooting skills. ”
"And now, a powerful Demon Hunter Pistol is a must-have for a Demon Hunter. ”
And the classics of the production of demon hunting bullets are even more widely circulated. ”
"Even Hodge, a kid, is adept at crafting demon-hunting bullets with supernatural tools. ”
And the shooting practice of a large number of demon hunting bullets has allowed me to master accurate marksmanship. ”
"The popularity of the Demon Hunter Pistol, and the abundant supply of Demon Hunting Bullets, allow us to easily defeat a group of dark creatures from a long distance, and most of the time, they are killed by us without touching us. ”
"In the days before, it was simply impossible. ”
"And the armor and sharp melee weapons of the whole body allow us to not fall behind when facing those dark creatures head-on. ”
"Even if we are injured, the potion in the package can make it easy for us to recover. ”
"Even, as long as it wasn't for the injuries that died on the spot, we could have survived. ”
"And those dark creatures, they haven't changed much in the past sixty or seventy years. Lay a special trap and they will swarm and then we will gradually destroy them. ”
"In addition, now there are more demon hunters, and there are more extraordinary professionals, and many extraordinary people who are not in the witcher sequence have also joined the hunting industry. ”
"After all, hunting those powerful creatures is still very profitable. ”
"So ......"
The old arbor smiled.
"Those dark creatures that appeared on the plateau of the Western Barren Mountains are simply not enough for so many hunters to share. ”
"Last summer, as soon as there were rumors that a large number of dark creatures had appeared in the Western Wilderness Mountains, a large number of hunting transcendents went north and went deep into the mountains. ”
"By the time the winter season is over, we won't be able to find the creatures of darkness. ”
Old Qiaomu's words made Gu Ne nod slightly.
The development of the past few decades has indeed greatly improved the power of the Northern Empire at the transcendent sequence level.
Not only are there a lot of transcendentals, but there are also enough transcendent equipment and transcendent resources to enhance the strength of transcendentals.
As long as you have money, you will be able to make yourself stronger.
With the expansion of the territory, the opening of sea waterways.
The constant acquisition of more abundant resources is also the reason why the territory of the Northern Empire can grow stronger and stronger.
"What about you, young man, how did you leave Suge Ruins City?" the old arcade looked at him with slightly squinted eyes.
When the old arbor told it just now, Gune had already drawn up a very reasonable identity for himself.
After a slight mutter, Goune spoke softly.
"My father didn't survive the terrible night of the end of winter. ”
"For my father, his goal in life was to restore the glory of the family, and I will fight for it for the rest of my life. ”
"After my father died, I sold all my possessions. ”
"After arriving in the city of Beran, I will transfer to the harbour of Harutev by train. ”
"You know, the sea is full of riches. ”
"So I'm going to buy a sea boat and recruit some sailors to explore the world of the endless depths of the ocean. ”
"I also know that if a rough wave comes, or if I encounter some murderous pirates, or if I am attacked by some Kraken and some other otherworldly beings, I will become destitute and even my own life will be threatened. ”
"But, as long as I don't die, there's always something to gain. ”
"Life is like this, if you don't work hard, there is a high probability that you can live a comfortable life, but you will never enjoy the fruits of success and wealth. ”
"And only to work hard, to struggle, to take risks, maybe you will fail, maybe you will fall into a very tragic end or even death, but the fruits of victory will eventually appear in front of a glimmer of light. ”
Listening to Gune's words, the old arbor nodded lightly.
The opening of today's sea lanes has indeed made many people rich overnight.
For this reason, there are not many people who sail the deep sea.
Some of the most courageous and powerful young people he knew also rushed to the sea.
Some of them have achieved something and even made a fortune as a result.
And more often than not, there is no news.
Maybe they lost their lives in the belly of a fish, or they died on an isolated island, or they were captured by some cannibal tribes and used as sacrifices and food for the "ancestral spirits" or some extraordinary beasts.
"It's a good choice to go above the ocean, but do you know some of the things that have happened on the ocean lately?" said the old arbor.
"I know a few but not much, senior, you're talking about those ocean undead!"
Since he was going to the ocean, Gune was naturally extremely concerned about the news above the ocean.
It is said that more than a month ago, an extremely strong earthquake erupted near the seismic zone above the ocean. A large number of volcanic islands erupted.
And this has led to the emergence of "rifts of the dead" above the ocean.
A large number of undead from different dimensions have entered the ocean, making the ocean extremely dangerous, and I heard that some islands are even densely packed with undead creatures.
And those soul-like undead creatures are even more unscrupulous floating on the ocean, forming a tide of undead, constantly attacking merchant ships deep into the sea.
To this end, the Ocean Transcendents Association has sent a large number of steel ships and transcendents to exterminate these undead creatures.
It can be said that the ocean is now in full swing.
"It's not just the undead of the sea. The old arbor's voice sounded again.
"And some powerful ones — the devil. ”
The old arbor's voice was very low.
"A powerful devil?"
Gune's eyes narrowed slightly, Gune hadn't learned about this before.
Devil!
This is a terrifying and powerful top-level spirit transcendent creature.
The number of species systems of other transcendent creatures is that there are many ordinary creatures, few at the elite level, not to mention at the leader level, which is very, very rare.
Those who can become lords can easily dominate a large area and become the overlord of a region.
But the devil is not the same as the apex crested species.
There is no ordinary class.
The weakest and weakest devil is also "elite-level".
And the devil who was born "elite-level", sorry, you have no qualifications to survive, and the only purpose of your birth is to become the food of the boss-level devil.
And only the "boss-level" devil can really come out of the "devil's lair".
This also leads to the fact that every devil that appears is at least a powerful existence at the boss level.
And at the same time as a large number of boss levels are born, it is easy for a "devil lord" to appear.
In the world of spirit creatures, the status of the devil is equivalent to the "demon" of flesh and blood creatures.
I heard that there were a large number of devils on the ocean, and his eyes were shining.
"That's a ...... Good news!"
It is the crown species of spirit creatures.
The devil possesses a very strong soul power.
And their most powerful place is to devour souls, transform and absorb themselves.
Even if the soul is severely damaged, or even shattered, as long as it is not completely annihilated, they will not die.
They are able to bring together shattered souls and slowly recover with their powerful properties.
At the same time, they can also quickly recover from their soul injuries by devouring other souls.
As the crown species of spirit creatures, the devil is not a little bit powerful.
On the other hand, if the soul suffers a little trauma, it will have serious consequences.
A slightly heavier soul wound will cause oneself to die completely.
The gap between the soul of man and the soul of the devil is huge.
For Gune, he was now preparing to condense his soul.
The devil is a spirit creature, that is a very perfect secondary soul material.
With the secondary soul as his soul shield, and Gune's own ontological soul is not weak, this will make Gune's soul survivability extremely strong.
"Forget about the devil lord, if the third-order and fourth-order devil leader encounters it, it will definitely not be able to let it go. Gune thought to himself.
Old Arbor continued.
"The appearance of these things has caused chaos on the ocean, and this has given those pirates a chance to take advantage of it. ”
"Today, many merchant ships that go deep into the seas are not destroyed by the undead of the seas and the demonic creatures that devour souls, but by powerful pirates. ”
"If you encounter the undead of the sea, you can avoid them in time. ”
"And if you encounter pirates who own a sea demon ship, a normal sailboat can't outrun them. ”
"And when they catch up, the end is often miserable. ”
"Thank you for your admonition, I will pay attention to these aspects. Gune responded.
There is indeed a huge gap between the speed of ordinary sailing ships and sea demon ships above the ocean.
And what Gune wants to obtain is precisely the sea demon ship.
If you really want to encounter some pirates who are not very powerful, you can't tell who will kill whom!
After some thought, Goune looked at the old tree.
"Senior, as an experienced witcher, do you know something about 'Arcane Shooting'? ”
"Arcane shooting?" the old arbor's expression moved.
