Monsters Will Die if They Are Killed

Although Ms. Yelena cannot be called beautiful, she can definitely be called good-looking. Her short brown shoulder-length hair looks quite capable, and her rather old but well-maintained knight's armor highlights this point.

Wandering knights are noble reserves who do not have their own territory. Most of them are extraordinary people with considerable strength, but not rich financial resources. Of course, this lack of wealth is only compared to the real nobles. If nothing else, this woman alone is The alchemical steel sword with obvious enchantment runes and a light silver halo on the knight's waist is enough to allow ten families to live comfortably for several years.

As the leader of the ruins exploration mission, Yelena has always performed her duties as a team leader. Whether it is the material planning before the mission begins, the payment of remuneration in advance, or taking the lead when exploring dangerous areas, and her quick and decisive approach to cracking ruins traps, all prove her His abilities are quite outstanding, and he is very organized and confident in everything he does.

But now, her tone was completely contrary to that capable image, and she showed an inexplicable look of shock.

"Sveteri, aren't you already dead?!"

The lady at the door spoke in an extremely complicated tone, mixed with a lot of emotions besides surprise and fear.

Su Zhou was concentrating on maintaining the repair of his body at the moment, and did not pay too much attention to the other person's thoughts, but he could still hear the meaning behind the other person's words just by relying on his tone of voice.

——This woman has long known that her body was severely damaged and she was most likely dead.

But what's interesting is that Yelena's sneaking over to spy on him proved that the other party was not sure that she would definitely die.

She came here at this time just to confirm the news of her death.

"Interesting... It is obvious that my predecessor's current identity is just an ordinary archeology professor and researcher of ancient characters. The hidden extraordinary power has almost completely dissipated due to more than ten years of neglect. Why does this woman think that I might be able to survive? Come down?"

With this thought in his mind, Su Zhou secretly said something interesting.

The current situation is unusual in every way. If his predecessor was not in a hurry for money, he would not be able to take on such an obviously problematic task.

Of course, it still needs to be disguised on the surface.

"Am I dead? Yelena, if you want to talk nonsense, you can wait until you get out."

The tall professor's tone was indifferent and his voice was clear.

He didn't even turn his head, but turned his eyes sideways, and said coldly to Yelena, who still felt incredible: "Also, let me remind you."

“Don’t make assumptions about people you know nothing about.”

After the words fell, hearing the indifferent tone of warning, Yelena even subconsciously held the alchemy steel sword at her waist.

Compared with the previous image of the good-tempered old professor who was mysterious, but gentle and reasonable, and even seemed a little weak, the man in front of him seemed to be a different person... No, it was not that he had changed his mind, but that he had been relieved. Disguise and reveal your true appearance!

Just like when he was underground before, he was the first to rush up, risking source energy radiation that was 4,500 times more than the dangerous threshold, to unlock the secret key of the central device and stop it from functioning.

Otherwise, all five of them will be wiped out together!

Could it be that he really...

Still thinking about the anomaly in Su Zhou, Yelena, who had not left for a long time, suddenly felt something was wrong.

She focused her eyes and found that the professor who was standing sideways had raised his eyes slightly.

There was no hostility or other emotions in those dark red eyes with devilish features, they just focused their gaze on her lightly.

The gray-haired old man stood in the center of the room and became the master of this area.

Just this made the wandering knight feel a chill in his heart, and then he simply turned around and left: "I'm sorry!"

However, before leaving, she still forcibly stopped and spoke in a calm tone of voice about the purpose of her visit this time: "Professor Svetrey, Master Suiguang said he found a new water source, and there may be ruins exits and food nearby. Source... We need to move the camp over and meet at the campfire later.”

"It's best that you're okay. If we want to get out of this ancient ruins, we can only rely on your knowledge."

After speaking, she left in a hurry.

"...just leave like this?"

Su Zhou, who originally thought it would take a few harsh words to make the other party run away, was slightly startled.

Even Gaza and Luoya looked at each other in confusion and didn't understand why Aunt Yelena and the professor ended it after just a few words.

To be honest, Su Zhou just raised his eyelids and prepared to take a closer look at who the other party was.

Who knew that the other party would be scared away like this.

This is because Su Zhou does not have a normal understanding of the pressure of his soul.

Even if he comes across the world and encounters abnormal spiritual power, in order to maintain the vitality of his body, he will not expose the abnormality.

The soul of an immortal still has incredible power.

Regardless of these, just Su Zhou's momentum and will to kill hundreds of millions of enemy invaders and even immortal gods. Ordinary extraordinary people who have not reached the commander level will have to make a will test when they see him. Ask for SANcheck.

"...House, Dean, now that Master Suiguang has found a new water source, that's a good thing!"

Loya, who still didn't understand the situation, picked up the magic refrigerator from the ground. After he turned it off skillfully, he exclaimed with a look of joy: "It turns out that there is indeed not much water left. Dean, just now, you The ones we drank are already more than half of what we have left, so we just need to add some water!"

Gasa also silently picked up the shield and hammer that had fallen to the ground when he saw Su Zhou coming out of the coffin. Then he raised his head and looked at Su Zhou with his dark golden eyes, waiting for the next instruction.

"Don't worry, go now."

Su Zhou was indeed not in a hurry. He had his hands behind his back and his eyes were slightly closed, as if he was thinking: "Although I am not dead, I am still seriously injured... take a rest first."

When he scared Yelena away before, it was because the other party had a ghost in his heart and did not calm down to observe. He didn't think that his current situation of being empty and dying would not be discovered by others.

Before gathering, he planned to master some self-protection power.

Because of the inheritance of bloodline, the extraordinary power of Aian's world is quite prosperous. Although there are various strange things, they can be roughly divided into four categories: "Knights", "Spellcasters", "Alchemists" and "Bloodline Awakeners".

But no matter which type they are, they are all based on the source energy of the 'Holy Sun' and 'Demon Moon'.

It must be mentioned that the situation in the Aian world is special, because the spiritual energy is too thick and viscous, and it is extremely difficult for life to naturally absorb and utilize it. Therefore, all living things in this world are born without souls, just like the earth in the era when spiritual energy was cut off.

Therefore, if you want to practice spiritual practice, you must gather your soul independently and use your soul to connect your body and body. Only after the soul and body are united can you move to a higher realm.

Soul condensation, spiritual brilliance, heart light, divine will.

First, the source power is condensed by guiding the secret method and the soul is cast. Only then can it be used as the basis to develop various abilities; and when the soul is strong and completely penetrates the body, when the ability is used, the whole body can emit a soul light visible to the naked eye, so it is called spiritual brilliance. .

Immediately afterwards, the radiance of the soul becomes stronger and stronger, and can even condense into various strange phenomena and beasts. The light of the soul, the "heart light", is similar to the avatar's appearance, which can make the extraordinary person transcend the mortal body and perform powerful extraordinary skills.

The further divine will is the secret treasures of major empires and nobles. Although there are many people who can reach this realm, most of them have adventures.

Their will has initially become extraordinary and holy, and they can fight against a mobile city-state or a regular army on their own.

The leader of the rebel army supported by Su Zhou's predecessor was a wandering knight who had reached the 'divine will' - and only those who had reached this level of transcendence could rally the masses to resist the huge empire.

But in the end, the rebels were wiped out.

Because an imperial general... a strong man from the 'Disaster Realm' whose strength was comparable to that of a natural disaster took action personally, at the cost of destroying a mobile city-state, and completely wiped out most of the rebels stationed in that city.

Along with them, more than a million civilians were wiped out.

Su Zhou recalled that the leader of his exploration team, Yelena, was a knight of the Heart Light Realm, and Master Suiguang from the Chasing Light Order was even stronger than Yelena.

As for the others, they are not very strong.

This is not surprising. If you can cultivate to the realm of heart light, you can become a guest of any big noble, and even gain your own glory in the imperial military. Yelena's knighthood is precisely because of this.

With such strength, who would take on missions as a mercenary? If it weren't for the Light-Chasing Order's original interest in various ancient ruins and Master Suiguang's return to his hometown in the north, Yelena wouldn't be able to get him to take action even if she spent ten times the money.

Su Zhou's own predecessor, Professor Svitley, was just a person in the mind-light realm, and he was an alchemist with very weak combat ability. He was more of a researcher.

As for now...

"After all, I have a soul, so let's just say I am in the Soul Condensing Realm."

With a laugh in his heart, Su Zhou turned his head and looked at the two children in front of him.

There was a lot of dust in the ruins. Gaza and Luoya were covered in dust, and their faces were covered with traces of dust.

Both of them were watching themselves carefully at this time, waiting for the next instructions from their 'professor'.

Just like before, teach them and guide them.

Su Zhou even heard their stomachs growling, presumably because they had not eaten for a while in order to take care of their 'corpse'.

If it weren't for the careful care of these two children in their early ten years, even if it was possessed by Su Zhou, the body would have begun to rot or be missing some parts... Although it is not impossible to repair, it will cost money. It's too much strength.

Thinking of this, Su Zhou couldn't help but be moved. He chuckled and reached out his hand to pat their shoulders.

"Go and eat some dry food. Although there isn't much food left, you can't stop eating it."

"It's time for you to grow, so go ahead."

At first, the two children were a little hesitant.

But after being urged again by Su Zhou, they all went to the parcel to get out the dry food.

"Dean, yours!"

Luo Ya even ran all the way over and gave Su Zhou his share.

"Okay, okay, good boy."

Su Zhou couldn't help but laugh a little. He touched the white-haired boy's head, listened to the other's laughter, and put the dry food into his mouth.

The body has not yet recovered, and there is no sense of taste or touch, but the very act of being able to 'swallow' proves that he has almost completely mastered this body.

The two children went to eat solid food. Su Zhou sat on the sarcophagus he had been on before and began to practice.

There are many soul-based cultivation systems, and most of the inheritances on the earth are like this, especially the fairy lineage, which can even be practiced without a physical body.

However, Su Zhou didn't intend to do this. Not to mention that he was already a Heavenly Soul Karma. The devil's bloodline hidden in this body alone had great potential to be tapped. It just so happened that he had not seen a devil in so many years. This time I just took this opportunity to integrate the devil's related inheritance into my own indefinite body and candlelight form.

"The guidance technique in my memory is to guide the rich source energy in the air into the body, and then condense it into the prototype of the soul."

"Complete this step, it can be regarded as successful soul condensation. It has initial supernatural powers, can move objects through the air, and can shock ordinary people mentally."

"After that, the source energy and soul penetrate the whole body. In addition to strengthening the body, you can continue to develop the power in your bloodline, and you can also start to formally practice the relevant exercise methods of the four major systems to prepare for becoming a formal professional. .”

Generally speaking, source energy cultivation should be done when you are young. It is best to start when the body has not yet begun to develop. Then the soul will gradually spread as the body grows. In this way, after adolescence and after a period of stability, you can naturally transcend condensation. In the soul stage, reach the 'spiritual brilliance'.

This is the case for all the heirs of great nobles. This kind of integration of spirit and body is the most stable and will not allow source energy to harm the body. However, ordinary people do not have this opportunity. Being able to cultivate spiritual brilliance before the age of thirty is considered quite good. have to.

And when an old man like Su Zhou, who is almost seventy years old, starts to practice, just by inducing source energy into his body, the powerful radiation can kill him.

But Su Zhou was not a real old man. He used his powerful soul power to connect with the surrounding source energy and slowly entered his body.

Source energy is a spiritual energy unique to the world of Aian, and its density is about forty times that of ordinary spiritual energy. Although this does not mean that it is forty times more difficult to mobilize than ordinary spiritual energy, the load on the body is truly four times that of ordinary spiritual energy. ten times.

Most of the practitioners in this world will specifically build a source energy storage organ in the body. Otherwise, allowing the source energy to accumulate everywhere in the body will cause a very obvious 'erosion phenomenon', which is almost irreversible and will gradually Spreading is a cancer unique to extraordinary people in this world.

But for Su Zhou, it wasn't a big problem.

Although this body is far different from his original body, and his talent is even more different, it is quite good compared to ordinary people - naturally, there is no so-called ordinary human beings, whether on earth or in this world. , everyone has potential and blood, it just depends on whether they can be stimulated.

Of course Su Zhou can inspire.

He closed his eyes, took deep breaths, and guided the source energy into his body bit by bit. Svetre was also a transcendent before. He originally chose the heart as the organ of the source energy spiritual world, but Su Zhou did not change his mind.

He extracted the sacred tree breath given by the Avenue Tree, then integrated it into his heart, began to blend with the source energy, and condensed it into an 'Amber Sky Crystal' - and then activated the yin and yang rotation immortality method.

Although it was heavy and stagnant, the source energy gradually began to move under the influence of a complete set of cultivation methods.

Just like the wheel of a waterwheel, it rotates over and over again, beginning to derive a trace of pure vitality.

Gradually, this vitality condenses into Qi. Although this Qi is too thick compared to the spiritual Qi of the orthodox immortal method, it also contains the power of the sacred tree that is enough to extend life.

With the breath of the sacred tree as a guide, the introduction to the Immortality Technique can only take a day or two, and Su Zhou, as the founder of this technique, is even less likely to do so.

Rhythmic breathing combined with the operation of the exercises drives the vitality energy to turn into a blood-like heat flow, rotating back and forth throughout the body.

Wherever the heat flow passes, the old and dried-up flesh and blood immediately exudes a numb and stinging feeling like a regenerated wound, and it is like a shriveled sponge filled with water, giving birth to a burst of strength and vitality.

When the heat flow circulated throughout his body, Su Zhou opened his eyes again. The turbidity of his corneas had completely disappeared, and even his eyes that had some presbyopia returned to normal, and what he could see with his eyes was extremely clear.

The empty body gradually filled up, and strength began to accumulate.

"Not bad, as good as I expected."

Standing up slowly, Su Zhou clenched his fists and felt a strong sense of strength.

In less than ten minutes, he had already restored his body, and his internal organs were working, digesting the dry food he had eaten before, and then converting it into nutrients and energy to nourish his body.

Buzzing, this is the slight buzzing sound of all the metal objects in the whole room, the unique source energy influence of Su Zhou's body.

The human body has its own natural attribute tendencies, but in a normal world, spiritual energy is weak, and this tendency can easily be overcome by acquired practice.

However, the density of spiritual energy in this world is forty times that of the ordinary world. This influence can easily expand and even evolve into various spell-like abilities, becoming the basis for subsequent practice.

Su Zhou's physical innate ability is consistent with his previous profession as an alchemist, which is the ability to subtly manipulate metals with some kind of spiritual force field - he has practiced thunder method, and although the nature is different, it has given him experience , exerting a certain combat effectiveness.

"We almost have the power to protect ourselves. Next, it's time to see how the situation goes."

Opening his eyes, Su Zhou's eyes were dark. This was a good start. He originally thought he was going to wake up from a random grave or some other tomb and dig it out by himself, but in the end he was just trapped in the ruins. This was already quite good.

At this time, the two children were still slowly eating dry food... This dry food produced in the northern mountains is made of flour cakes and pastries. It tastes like eating rags, and they can't be pulled apart after biting for a long time.

Fortunately for Gaza, his teeth are similar to those of a black dragon. They are sharp and serrated, and they are very strong and can be easily broken. As for Loya's race, they obviously don't eat much meat, so they are naturally not interested in this cake, which is harder to chew than wild boar. He had no choice but to tear it into pieces for him.

The gathering was obviously not that fast. Su Zhou watched his two 'apprentices' eating with great interest, and couldn't help but feel that it was quite interesting.

"I can't believe that a peer in this world would actually become the director of an orphanage... The vastness of the multiverse is truly amazing."

Thinking like this, Su Zhou became interested in these two well-behaved children with good personalities and behaviors.

"Book of Prajna, look at their situation."

The Book of Prajna takes cause and effect as its source, and it is deduced to be most effective for people close to Su Zhou. If it is a stranger, at most one name will be displayed.

But obviously, the cause and effect between Jiasha and Luoya and their predecessors were huge. As the golden light flew, large tracts of data emerged.

[Name: Kasaya]

[Age: 14 years old]

[Talent: Excellent]

[Race: Eastern branch of Aian people, Yalong bloodline]

[Cultivation: Elementary level of soul condensation (demonized disease prompts birth)]

[Historical information: The illegitimate son of the Eastern Dragon nobles was fostered in a city-state in the southern part of the empire when he was young. The war destroyed the city and made him a street child.

He traveled to many cities, making a living by begging, running errands, and stealing food. He had a precocious mind, but because he did not have time to take refuge in the sewers during a 'blood moon', he was corroded by the demonic moon and became a patient with demonic disease.

The soul and blood power generated by the demonic disease made survival easier, but he was discriminated against and excluded by more people. He was originally going to go crazy, but he got out of the predicament and stabilized his mind with the help of his friend Loya.

When he was ten years old, during the Great Famine in the South, he was adopted by Professor Sweetley and became a member of the Xiguang Orphanage. He received a good education and laid the foundation for the future.

Now the apprentice of Professor Sweetley. 】

[Perfect deduction (wrong): ...After the death of Professor Svitley, he escaped from the ruins of Chuyao with his friend Loya, and was discovered by the shaman priest in the northern Ionian Mountains. He valued his talent and became a member of the 'Frost Tribe' One member.

Due to the death of Professor Sweetray, the Xiguang Orphanage was forced to close by the empire. A large number of children died from forced labor and violations. Therefore, they hated the empire and humans. With their bravery and cruelty, they became the largest tribe under the "Great Khan of Tenmu". The leader, who received the inheritance of the 'World-ending Serpent', led the frost disaster army to invade the empire, destroying 147 large city-states and killing more than 20 million humans with his own hands.

'The End Time', which was finally extinguished on the Holy Sun and the Twilight Dragon was unsealed, was designated as one of the Ten Salary Kings and was killed by the Imperial Emperor, 'Sun Emperor' Asmodai XIII. , the 'Spirit-Burning Torch' sacrificed on the Tower of Babel became the sacrifice for the opening of the original Dark Age. 】

"...?"

Blinking his eyes, Su Zhou suspected that he had seen something wrong.

There was too much information for him to analyze at once, but the most important thing was the perfect deduction - most likely because his predecessor was dead, the perfect deduction could only be calculated based on the original trajectory, but even this was too outrageous!

He raised his head in confusion and looked at the black-haired boy who was silently tearing cakes for Loya. Although his face was expressionless, he could see the gentleness in his eyebrows.

"professor?"

Noticing Su Zhou's gaze and thinking that he was also hungry, Gaza turned around, seemingly planning to take out some more dry food from the package.

"No, no, no, please eat more."

Raising his hand to stop the other party's behavior, Su Zhou looked at the boy's obedient and reliable appearance, and couldn't help but feel that it was quite absurd - such a good boy could actually become a demon king-level figure who slaughtered 20 million humans with his own hands?

Is this reasonable?

"Huh... maybe it was an accident."

After concentrating for a while, Su Zhou thought about it and didn't find it strange - the book of Prajna also had this problem at the beginning, and there were all kinds of dark futures when deducing the enlightenment. It is probably an old problem now.

So he turned his head and looked at the white-haired boy on the other side who was taking the cake from Gasa with a silly smile.

[Name: Noah]

[Age: 13 years old]

[Talent: Transcendence into Sainthood]

[Race: Southern branch of Aian people, elven bloodline]

[Cultivation: Elementary level of soul condensation]

[Historical information: The son of a well-known alchemist in a southern city-state. His father was killed due to a conflict between a demonizer and the city-state guards. His family property was taken away by the enemy. With the help of his friend Gaza, he fled the city-state and began to wander.

He has amazing alchemy talent and can reproduce various alchemy tools taught by his father when he was young. However, he has a gentle and weak personality. If it were not for the protection of Gasha, he would fall into the hands of local gangs and become a forbidden prisoner.

He and Gasha supported each other, and used their alchemy talents to create various instruments to survive while wandering. They soothed Gasha's demonic disease, and while appeasing the other party's chaotic demonized soul, he naturally condensed his soul successfully.

When he was nine years old, during the Great Famine in the South, he was adopted by Professor Sweetley and became a member of the Xiguang Orphanage. He received a good education and laid the foundation for the future.

Now the apprentice of Professor Sweetley. 】

[Perfect deduction (wrong): ...After the death of Professor Svitley, he escaped from the ruins of Chuyao with his friend Gasha, and was discovered by the witch priest in the northern Ionian Mountains. Because of his amazing talent, the witch priest regarded him as his own Pass on to others and teach them all the source energy skills.

Because of his naive mind, he fully accepted the beliefs of the two tribes of Frost and Higurashi, and after learning about the tragedy of Xiguang Orphanage, he made up his mind to completely become a believer of the Twilight Dragon, so that the Twilight Dragon could be unsealed and destroyed. It is his highest mission to live in a world without any relatives or friends outside.

As the Great Shaman of Tianmu, he created the giant alchemical weapon 'Giant Divine Weapon' that broke through the Empire's Yanshuang Pass, and set up the 'National Refinement Formation', leading the unsealing of the Twilight Dragon, which directly led to the 'Endgame'. The arrival of the 'Time' indirectly destroyed the entire 'Holy Day Era' and fulfilled the wish.

In the end, when the Holy Sun was extinguished and the Twilight Dragon was unsealed, he was designated as one of the Ten Salary Kings. He was beheaded by the Emperor of the Empire, the Sun Emperor Asmodai XIII, and sacrificed to Ba The 'Spirit Burning Torch' on the other tower became a sacrifice for the opening of the original Dark Age. 】

"...?"

What the hell?

This time without blinking, Su Zhou was immediately confused.

He looked at Luo Ya, who was not far away and choked after taking a sip of water, causing Gasa to slap his back in panic. His heart was full of mixed feelings, it was simply braised canned herring and charcoal-grilled durian pieces!

"What's going on? Two big demon kings were born directly after my predecessor died? Are they both world-destroying super demons?"

"And if I don't resurrect, they can escape, escape from this 'Chu Yao Ruins'? Is this the name of the ruins where I am? It's really amazing!"

There is a lot of valuable information in Gaza and Loya's perfect deduction, but it obviously needs to be analyzed based on the situation of the entire world. Su Zhou has not yet extracted the relevant memories of his predecessor, but he knows it even by instinct. , the situation in this world is very bad.

Whether it's the Dragon of Twilight, the End of Time, or the extinguishing of the Holy Sun, or the King of Xin and the Original Dark Age... they don't sound like good words!

It is indeed a fragment of the original world at dusk. Isn’t this a bit too authentic?

"My feelings are that the orphanage is the devil's incubator, the detonator of the world of Aian?"

"Hey, Su Zhou, why are you so surprised?" Just as Su Zhou was complaining quickly in his heart, Yala couldn't help complaining: "You should think about what your innate magical power is called, it is the Demon Devouring Lord - -Devouring-Evil-Demon-Lord! The top inheritance of the Great Freedom Demon Lord series, his Transformation Freedom Law series!"

"Do you understand the Demon Lord? A little more than the Demon King!"

"Also, your peer is originally of devil blood. Is it strange to teach two devil kings?"

After thinking about it, Su Zhou suddenly felt relieved: "Indeed, it's okay."

He complained that he was just surprised for a moment. After all, it would always be incredible to suddenly discover that the two well-behaved children in front of him are the seeds of the future demon king.

But if you think about it carefully, it's not surprising. After all, the future has infinite possibilities, and good and evil are just the trajectory of one life.

What the future holds depends on the fact that 'Professor Sweetley' is dead.

But now, he is living well.

So none of that will happen.

After understanding this, Su Zhou stopped thinking about it and sat on the coffin, smiling and watching the two children eating solid food.

Who would have thought that a white-haired kid who would choke on water would become the great twilight shaman who leads the end of the world in the future, and that the black-haired kid next to him would be his sharpest blade in destroying the world?

After a while, the two of them finished eating.

"Let's go, it's time to gather."

Su Zhou also got up from the sarcophagus. The tall but thin old man walked calmly towards the exit of the room, while Gasha and Luo Ya stood up skillfully and followed behind him.

The bonfire is not far from the room and is located in a hall of the ruins. This artificial flame, which is powered by source energy, only needs a little wood to burn for several hours. It is a must-have for those who travel far away.

Originally, everyone was supposed to camp near the bonfire to avoid being attacked by wild beasts and monsters, but after exploring for so long, everyone was sure that there were no monsters in this ruins, so the team members who had privacy chose different rooms to live in, and only gathered together. We get together during meals.

Walking through the spacious ruins corridor, while scanning the ancient reliefs on both sides of the passage, Su Zhou heard the quarrel coming from there.

"You guys, how dare you steal my prepared food?! You despicable demonizer, I have to kill you today!"

It was a loud male voice. You can imagine how shocking the owner of this voice must be when he spoke, but at this time, his voice was filled with anger and murderous intent.

"Gulu...it doesn't taste good..."

And a slight voice sounded. It didn't sound like a human voice, but rather like the dangerous low cry coming from the throat of a hungry beast: "There's nothing good to eat..."

The situation is tense. Su Zhou thought this way, but soon, a hoarse female voice sounded with annoyance.

"Are you two crazy? You are still fighting among yourself at this time. Do you really think you can walk out of this ruins alone and go back with the aftermath of a natural disaster?!"

Su Zhou has already arrived in the hall.

He saw a burly man squatting on the ground facing a swordsman wearing light armor and holding a long sword near the burning red source of energy.

The burly man had long beard and hair, like a lion's mane. His eyes were dark green, and long tiger teeth protruded from his lips.

Su Zhou's body was already very tall, but this burly man was taller than Su Zhou - at least three meters tall. Gasha and Loyaga were not taller than each other.

But facing this giant body, the light-armored swordsman who was a head shorter than Su Zhou was not afraid. If Yelena hadn't stood in front of him with a headache on his face, she might have really drawn her sword and stepped forward.

In the open space next to the three people, there was a black steel coffin placed aside, which looked ancient and heavy.

The memories of his previous life flowed, and when he saw these people, Su Zhou recalled information about them.

The light-armored swordsman's name is Hader. He is a native of the northern mobile city-state. He is a local snake and Yelena's collaborator. He has provided a lot of resources and equipment for this ruins exploration. He is a high-level spiritual knight. Just because If you are not qualified to purchase energy armor, you cannot become a knight.

The burly giant named Adama is a powerful demonizer with giant blood, good at manipulating earth and stone, and was invited by Yelena to join the exploration.

Demonizers are a unique phenomenon in the Edda world. The density of spiritual energy in this world is too high, and it is very easy for beings from other worlds to undergo physical changes when they come here. Even the natives of this world, at special moments, such as the 'Demon Moon' emission When brilliance greatly increases the activity of spiritual energy in the world, people who do not effectively stabilize the blood and source energy in their bodies are more likely to suffer from demonic disease.

Demonic disease essentially erodes the body with source energy. This process will in turn condense the soul of the demonized person, allowing them to gain extraordinary power and activate their bloodline.

But similarly, the soul derived from his power is very unstable, but it will affect the brain's thinking and make people crazy - most demonized people will go crazy, and then attack other people, devouring other people's soul essence and flesh and blood, To stabilize his crumbling soul.

Trying to use this method to practice is equivalent to trying to use suicide to break through, and Saiyans cannot do it.

However, there are also extraordinary people who suffer from demonic disease, and this situation is much better. Extraordinary people can use their own power to suppress the progression of the demonic disease, and use source energy erosion to increase their power. Although the final result is likely to go crazy or even self-destruct, but if they advance to 'divine will' before going crazy, they will Can save a life.

But how much divine will is there in this world? Most demonized people are struggling, wandering between madness and sanity.

Gaza is also a demonizer, but to a much lesser degree than Adama. This burly giant's demonization disease has reached an advanced stage. He has dark totem-like lines spreading all over his body. They are marks formed by the condensation of source energy. The most basic source energy array is also the source of madness.

The essence of natural disasters is the source energy disaster that breaks out between the pull of the 'holy sun' and the 'demon moon'. This will also give rise to a large number of patients with demonic diseases. Adama, who originally looked like a normal person, is Because the frost disaster outside the ruins has catalyzed the madness of the demonized disease, so that it is now almost completely transformed into a beast.

"Don't stop me. If I don't kill him, what will happen if he eats everyone's dry food? Are you planning to starve to death?"

"And that's not Adama anymore, it's a demonized beast. I killed him, and he still wants to thank me!"

Hader's angry voice echoed in the hall. Yelena's persuasion was of no use. When trapped in the ruins, food was equal to life. Adama ate Hader's food. It would be strange if Hader didn't kill him.

"You won't run out of food...the food is right here..."

The deep green light in Adama's eyes became even more intense. The way he looked at Hader at this time was almost like a hungry man who had been hungry for several days and saw a plate of barbecue. His saliva dripped from the edge of his lips, and there was a rolling sound in his throat. The grunt.

Obviously, he is going to eat people.

However, Su Zhou's arrival caused the two people who were about to fight to stop their argument.

"Professor Sweetley?"

Turning his head, Swordsman Harder's eyes showed surprise, his eyebrows furrowed, and the expression on his face trembled slightly: "You are actually still alive?"

This is not an expression of surprise, but a regret that 'the smelly old man is not dead, and the reward and food have to be divided again'.

As for the two children, he subconsciously ignored them - what kind of trouble could these two young boys make?

"...Gulu..."

The look in Adama's eyes when she looked at Su Zhou showed obvious disappointment - Su Zhou knew without reading his mind that this guy probably thought that if he died, he could eat the corpse.

But then, Adama looked at Gaza and Luo Ya, subconsciously stretched out his bright red and even slightly forked tongue, and licked his lips.

This scene was so frightening that Luo Arthur trembled, and Gasha nervously raised his shield to protect his friend.

"Um?"

Seeing this, Su Zhou couldn't help but frown. He looked at Adama, which immediately made the demonized giant change his face slightly. He retracted his tongue and muttered in a low voice: "...It's so hard...it doesn't taste good..."

Unlike Yelena, these two people were not surprised that Su Zhou survived. They had not cared about Su Zhou's condition before. They just thought that he was injured and in bad condition. Now that he had a day's rest, it was time to regain some strength. .

"For the sake of Ms. Yelena and Professor Svitley, I don't want to argue with you."

Now everyone is almost here, and Adama has restrained himself. Hader also knows that there is no chance of a fight: "Spare your life, and I won't argue with you until we get out of the ruins!"

He put the sword back with an ugly expression, then simply sat aside and began to eat the rest of his dry food.

"Hey... let's be patient with each other."

Yelena, who was trying to stop the fight, sighed tiredly, then turned her head and nodded to Su Zhou as a greeting.

Adama's madness was also for the sake of the entire team. If it weren't for his keen intuition as a demonizer, who warned in advance that the natural disaster was coming, everyone would have been killed by the natural disaster as soon as they left the ruins.

And if Adama hadn't exploded with all his strength and used his earth energy ability to stabilize the ruins passage, the waiting team would have been crushed to death by the collapse of the mountain.

He saved everyone's life, but he himself fell into madness. It was okay for Hader to be angry. As the team leader, Yelena at least on the surface wanted to protect the other party.

"Where's Master Suiguang?"

Adama was lying on her side next to the campfire, while Hader was eating dry food. Su Zhou looked around and found that there were no members of the Light Chasing Order in his memory, so he asked Yelena casually.

【I'm here. 】

However, before Yelena could answer, a mechanical but soft voice came from the corridor at the other end of the hall.

Su Zhou raised his head and saw a human figure wrapped in mechanical armor.

Accompanied by the roar and the sound of mechanical operation, the armor came slowly. This silver-green mechanical armor was huge, even half a head taller than Adama, over three meters.

At first glance, Su Zhou thought he saw Zheng Guo's exoskeleton armored guard.

In fact, it's not much different. The voice came from the speaker of the mechanical armor. It was an old and steady male voice: [I just went to adjust the armor. It took a while. Please forgive me. 】

"I don't dare. Thank you for your hard work, Master."

Even Harder stood up and saluted the armor: "Don't worry about me waiting, we can wait as long as we want."

[You are polite, but you still can’t waste your time. 】

Although he is the most powerful being among everyone present, the master of the Light-Chasing Order, known as Suiguang, is extremely gentle and polite. Just like all members of the Light-Chasing Order, he shows kindness to all things.

The Order of the Light was originally a team formed by a group of alchemists to optimize mobile cities to avoid natural disasters, but later gradually evolved into a faith organization that "provides convenient technology for all mankind."

Because the Demon Moon is too dangerous, all mobile cities will move in the direction of the setting of the Holy Sun. After the Holy Sun sets, they will move in the opposite direction toward the rising sun. This process is "chasing the light."

Although it is an ideal religious organization, no one dares to underestimate the power of the Light-Chasing Order. As the most powerful technology holder on this land, every member of the order with the title of 'Master' has There is a force that can rival the 'Heart Light' level transcendent after wearing mechanical armor.

And if they originally had extraordinary strength, their combat effectiveness would be even more terrifying. Few other professionals could defeat the pilots in these mechanical cans.

Yelena, Hade, Adama, Master Suiguang, Su Zhou and his apprentice, a total of seven people, are all the members of this exploration team.

[I found a water source in the west of the ruins, a small pool. Although the source energy radiation is very strong, it can be drunk after treatment. 】

At this time, in front of the bonfire, a voice came from the armor, and everyone sat around the silver-green armor and the bonfire.

Master Suiguang's voice was clear and steady. He told everyone the results of his exploration in a very methodical manner: [Water is living water, and its source energy is very similar to the source energy of frost disasters. I believe that it should be the melting of ice and snow in the outside world. Water seeped into the cracks of the ruins. 】

[I suggest that we change the camping location and camp near the pool, where we have a better chance of finding the exit. 】

Naturally, everyone had no objections, including Su Zhou.

The dry food can last for a few days. If you save some food, a week is always enough. The natural disaster cannot last more than ten days in any case. Now that they have been stuck here for five days, it will definitely dissipate within a week.

As long as there is enough water, it is not difficult to find the exit of the ruins in this mountain.

"Thank you Master Sui Guang for your exploration. If I can leave the ruins, I am willing to offer a donation to the Chasing Light Order."

At this moment, Swordsman Hard suddenly spoke, his brows furrowed again: "But before that, I have another question."

[Mr. Harder, please speak. 】The huge armor shook slightly, and a confused mechanized male voice sounded.

"Ms. Yelena told me that the purpose of exploring the ruins is to find ancient technology from the previous era. You are a member of the Light Chasing Order. It is normal to join the exploration, but we did not find many ancient treasures and alchemical equipment as we imagined in this ancient ruins. , On the contrary, this place is simply like an empty cemetery, with all kinds of stones and steel coffins everywhere."

At this moment, Hader's eyes could see the bloodshot eyes of exhaustion. He thought that even if he could not return with a good harvest from this exploration, he would at least be able to find something valuable to pass the time.

But now...

"Look, we went deep into the bottom of the ruins and dismantled countless traps in the ruins. Even Professor Svitley almost died because of it, but the result? We just brought back a big iron coffin!"

Raising his hand angrily and pointing to the black metal coffin placed aside, Hader turned his head and looked at Yelena's livid face, his tone full of mockery: "Don't tell me this thing is the purpose of your exploration this time! I am Is it possible that someone who owns 15% of the ownership of the relics and finds can give me some money according to the price of steel?"

"And Adama, although he stole my food just now, he wouldn't be like this if there hadn't been an accident while exploring the ruins!"

"Master, can you also accept it? It's a natural disaster and we're trapped. The people we brought outside must have suffered heavy losses due to the natural disaster, so we just brought back a coffin?"

【……】

After a moment of silence, Master Suiguang in the armor sighed: [Sir, what do you want to say? And instead of asking me, you should ask Ms. Yelena. 】

"Oh?" Upon hearing this, the swordsman with a loud voice looked playfully at the female knight on the other side who already looked very ugly.

He sneered: "Then Ms. Yelena, can you tell us what wonderful creation is in this coffin, which can allow you to spend enough wealth to buy a manor, and even invite Master Suiguang and Professor Svitley to risk your life and death?" Is danger coming to this ruins?"

——Good guy, he managed to seduce everyone with just a few words. The skill of this mouth is also a good one on the earth network.

Being used as a tool to put pressure on Yelena by Hader, Su Zhou felt quite relaxed.

Because he also really wanted to know what was in the coffin that he and others brought back from the depths of the earth that could cost Yelena such a high price.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Yelena. Even the two children instinctively followed Su Zhou's gaze and looked curiously at this usually kind lady.

"...What are you going to do?"

After taking several deep breaths to calm down, Yelena looked at Harder and said in a cold voice: "I will never give you less reward. Don't forget our original 'agreement'!"

"snort……"

Seemingly remembering the original agreement with Yelena and the 'big man' behind the other party, Hader gritted his teeth, but he still insisted: "I must know the true purpose of our operation!"

"Open the coffin and let me see what's inside!"

"Insatiable!"

The female knight's hand has been placed on the alchemy steel sword, her complexion is livid, and her tone is serious: "I..."

[Promise him, Ms. Yelena. 】

But at this time, Master Suiguang spoke in a calm and soft tone, interrupting the female knight's words: [I also want to know what is stored in this ancient coffin that makes you, madam, so rude. 】

"me too."

How could Su Zhou miss this excitement? He even agreed with a rather indifferent tone.

"Huh...ha."

After taking a few rapid breaths, causing her breastplate to rise and fall, Yelena looked around hatefully at everyone present, and then sneered: "You want to know? Then open it and see for yourself!"

"Remember, don't regret it!"

After saying that, she sat aside with her sword in her hand, looking at the others indifferently.

[Thank you, Ms. Yelena. 】

Master Suiguang agreed politely, and Master Suiguang was not polite. On the other side, Harder stood up directly. The light-armored swordsman walked quickly to the iron coffin, and then effortlessly lifted the entire iron coffin and placed it on it. In front of everyone around the campfire.

Professionals of the knight series do have such an ability. The integration of soul and body allows them to perform work on the outside world with extremely high density of source energy like hydraulic machinery, with extremely high efficiency.

Then, with everyone watching, the swordsman opened the iron coffin with all his strength with a low shout.

The spiritual energy containing strong vitality spilled towards the entire hall as the coffin board was opened, causing the flames of the bonfire to sway, and a soft silver glow bloomed from it, illuminating everything around it.

Then, the swordsman froze on the spot.

Su Zhou, who was standing aside, also looked up curiously. Of course, he was also curious about what was hidden in the 'Chu Yao Ruins' that killed his predecessor and gave birth to the two future world-destroying demon kings, Gaza and Loya. What an amazing secret.

However, when he saw what was stored in the coffin, he and Harder, and even everyone except Yelena, were slightly stunned.

Because what is stored in the coffin is a person.

A young girl.

A beautiful girl who is still alive and peaceful.
