Chapter 360 Dojo
Although Duke does not feel that he needs Huiyue Arcane Master to be stationed in Oak Tooth Mountain, Zambrotta and others still believe that it is necessary.
Then, after Selsus and others broke through the scar on the earth and returned to the ground, the stars conducted an in-depth investigation. It was also determined that behind these many events, they were creating conditions for the Sinking Demon to attack Duke. It's just that Duke will travel through the world and make the Sinking Demon's plans fail.
"There is a Sinking Demon that self-destructed in the scar on the earth, making the originally fragile tunnel extremely strong, so I and other people will be trapped in it and unable to get out." Thersus' true body returned to the battleship, and the clone has already arrived in the Holy City of Arcane, and once
again Take charge of the overall situation.
"Yes, I have also investigated a similar situation. The Sinking Demon is repeating its old tricks and wants us to fall into it." Timirasu Fengshen also noticed the changes in the scar on the earth and squinted his eyes coldly. said the voice.
In fact, the changes that occurred in the Scar of the Earth will become clear to the arcane path once the power of the Sinking Demon subsides.
So the stars looked back at the arcane trajectory and found out the many causes and effects.
"However, it is very possible that someone interfered with the arcane trajectory, so that the Sinking Demon's actions could be realized." Selsas looked at the people in the Stars Conference Room, his beard was angry, and his eyes were cold, "There is one among us. Traitor!"
"Yes!"
Sarilang nodded deeply: "Not only did he intervene once, but at least twice, once when the Speaker led a team to explore the scar on the earth, he interfered with the arcane trajectory, and once when the arcane saint interfered The city launched a surprise attack, and someone interfered with the trajectory of the arcane magic!"
Timirasu Fengshen also nodded, with a thoughtful look in his narrowed eyes: "No matter how sudden the attack of the Sinking Demon is, the trajectory of the arcane magic can still be traced. , only by being interfered by others can Huiyue and I lose our vigilance."
The three Huiyue arcane instructors said it with certainty.
The stars suddenly looked at each other in awe, unable to guess who was betraying everyone.
Duke also looked around all the stars in a circle with unkind eyes, but he could already trust most of the stars, but he was more suspicious of two of them.
Originally, his little notebook recorded the names of three stars.
Shadik Pioneer Eye, the guardian of the Shivering Realm, Perots Green Fox, executive director of the Elemental Tower and director of the Arcane Formulating Committee, and Weasley, the commander of the Second Arcane Assistance Corps.
These three people had all strongly opposed him joining the Conference of Stars.
And in the future, hostility towards Duke will occasionally be revealed - with Duke's perception ability, using the resonance of the energy of all things and the breathing method, he can grasp many hidden and profound emotions, and then analyze them by Xiaoyi, so as to Make sure nothing goes wrong.
But this time, Perots Green Fox was crossed off the list.
The reason is simple. Perots Green Fox was one of the first eighteen stars and was the first to be trapped in the scar on the earth.
If he is a traitor, it will be difficult for him to interfere with the arcane trajectory a second time.
"In other words, Shadick Pioneer Eye or Weasley, choose one of the two!" Duke did not reveal his thoughts. After retracting his gaze, he thought silently, "Of course, it is also possible that both of them are traitors and secretly plot against each other. Wipe each other's butts."
Thinking of this, he felt the need to have a good chat with Selsus.
Duke had told Selsus earlier, asking Selsus to help him keep an eye on the three men, Shadik Pioneer Eye, to see if he could find the fox tail.
Now the fox is exposed for once.
Selsus may not have been wary, he may have already made a guess in his mind.
At this time, the atmosphere in the Stars Conference Room was a little solemn. Seeing this, Selsus coughed lightly and said: "Okay, it will be a matter of time before the traitor is caught by us. Don't be too nervous. Let's talk about the next item. Topic."
Waiting for everyone to come to their senses.
Selsus continued: "This attack is aimed at Duke, so the Holy City of Offa is just covering the attack, and the Scar of the Earth is just delaying the attack. The real killing move is for six fallen demons to attack Duke. Gram."
"Yes, we should pay attention to this matter!" Sarilang agreed.
Selsus nodded: "Fortunately, Duke escaped, but the attack will never end here. The reason is not difficult to understand. Duke's transformation of the spiritual arcana makes these slaves of corrupt spirituality no longer able to sit still." Stay, they are going to destroy Duke!"
In his opinion, whether it is a divine evil or a fallen demon, they are the opposite of the spiritual arcana.
This time, the Sinking Demon used the ruins of the gods to trap more than a dozen stars. This is the best example of the confluence of the opposite aspects of spiritual arcana.
And Duke makes the spiritual arcana move forward at a rapid pace, and these negative reactions will naturally cause stress reactions and destroy Duke.
"In fact, counting this time, Duke has experienced four attacks from the Sinking Demon!" Selsus broke the news, "Two direct attacks and two nightmare attacks. This shows that Duke has already Become a thorn in the side of the Sinking Demon."
Therefore, Selsus immediately got to the point: "We must protect Duke without delay! I support the proposal of Gianluca Zambrotta and Muse. Huiyue must have someone to guard Oak Tooth Mountain anytime and anywhere. , ensuring Duke’s safety.”
Quickly.
The Conference of Stars passed the "Duke Protection Act" with fifty-four votes in favor and one vote against.
The negative vote was cast by Duke himself. He really did not need the protection of Huiyue Arcane Master. The Mark of the Stars could be activated at any time. No matter how many Sinking Demons attacked and killed him, he would not be afraid.
Of course, he would not sway the stars' good intentions.
"I will hide outside now, and I will come back when you catch the traitor." After the meeting, Duke said that there is no need for the Bright Moons to rush to Oak Tooth Mountain.
His true form is currently traveling through several worlds for investigation.
Then he chatted with Selsus alone for a while.
"Perots Green Fox's suspicion has been lifted." Selsus said, "On your list of suspicions, there are still Shadick Pioneer Eye and Weasley." "It is
also possible that both of them have problems."
" I can't say for sure at the moment, but don't worry, I will investigate them one by one. This time the Sinking Demon is so generous, there are definitely not a few arcane traces that need to be erased. No one can be perfect, there will always be clues left behind." "Then
. I'm just waiting for the good news from you, Sir."
"It won't take long, I'll get it done within a month!" Celsus became furious. Being trapped in the scar on the earth this time really made him extremely angry.
When Duke attacks for the first time, some people can be dissatisfied with Duke and take the opportunity to clear the ground against Duke. After all, the stars are also human beings, and there are also seven emotions and six desires that plot vendettas. As long as they are not colluding with the fallen demon, Selsus can still endure it before bad results occur.
But this time, it has been clearly shown that someone is colluding with the Sinking Demon.
This means that for this one or even two stars, the ring of distortion has been broken and is about to fall into the abyss, irreversibly.
Thelsus couldn't bear it any more.
"Then I'll wait and see." Duke nodded.
Then he asked about the story that happened in the scar on the earth, and also learned about what changes happened after the evil deity swallowed the spiritual spring.
"That is a change in rules. If the rules of the Wild Continent have evolved the spiritual arcana and all things. Then in the scars of the earth, the rules have become loose and cannot evolve into all things, but they can expose the arcana. The essence of it."
Originally these were the secrets of the stars.
If an ordinary arcane mage knew about it, it would be harmful to the practice of spiritual arcana, and would even shake the original intention of the twisted ring.
But Duke has been able to destroy the Sinking Demon. In Selsus' view, Duke's inner firmness is enough to resist the temptation of scars on the earth, so he is willing to reveal some secrets.
"The reason why I and others explore the Scar of the Earth is to find the essence of arcana from these loose rules. Of course, most of the time, they only get some material benefits... Everything in the Scar of the Earth is a treasure."
The power of rules collapses there, and matter cannot exist normally.
Therefore, special things will appear, such as some special spiritual materials, which may be extraordinary things that even alchemists cannot create.
It can be said that scars on the earth are special mineral deposits for the stars.
"Occasionally, we can find the essence of some spiritual arcana and expand our understanding of spiritual arcana... Chapter of the Stars and the Chapter of the Moon Phases, every step is extremely difficult, let alone the Chapter of the Coronation Sun, if there is no The scars on the earth supplement cognition, making it difficult for the stars to practice." "
I see." "
After the gods merge with the earth, they are said to be immortal and become an eternal body, but in fact they have become part of the rules. Or how to say, In my opinion, divine evil is the melting of the rules that constitute the spiritual arcana and becomes the nourishment for one's own eternal life."
After being eaten, the spiritual spring turned into scars on the earth, and no spiritual arcana developed in the entire area. .
All living things will be cut off from the scars of the earth.
Once you stray into it, you will lose your spirituality and become part of the scar on the earth.
"You know about mine disease, right?" Selsus suddenly asked.
"Natural."
"Patients with mineral disease, even if they are cured, will not live long. The reason is that their organs gradually lose activity after being impacted by the energy of the spiritual mineral for a long time, and become a structure like dry firewood... The scar on the earth is The mineral disease in the wild continent."
Selsus described it this way.
Duke immediately thought of a medical concept on Earth - fibrosis.
In his previous life, he was watching short videos, and he often saw patients who drank pesticides, especially those who drank paraquat pesticides. Their lungs were fibrotic and could not be reversed, and they could only wait for death. The process of pulmonary fibrosis is the process of scarring.
The lungs are damaged and the body repairs them, leaving dense scars that lead to changes in the normal tissue structure of the lungs.
Especially the alveoli that exchange oxygen, once fibrosis occurs, the ability to breathe is lost, and the loss is permanent.
The more severe the fibrosis, the weaker the breathing ability.
"Fibrosis..." Duke suddenly thought about it. The scars on the vast continent were the fibrosis caused by the erosion of the gods.
At present, there are very few areas of fibrosis, and the evil seems to have disappeared, and fibrosis will no longer continue.
But in the world he travels through, the Black Wasteland has large-scale scarring, which is also large-scale fibrosis. And this fibrosis process seems to be continuing to develop. Sooner or later, the Black Wasteland will be completely fibrotic.
Eventually it turned into silence.
"Dream of Stars... One star corresponds to a tree king... There must be some connection between the Wilderness Continent and these worlds..." "
And the goddess Nyx I awakened by turning on the Will of the Stars may not be the Wilderness. The gods of the continent... Why can't they be the gods that destroyed the world like the Black Wasteland... Maybe there are more worlds that the dreamland of stars could go to!" As of now, Duke has lit up
120,000 people. So many stars.
The tree kings corresponding to these stars are distributed in the Wild Continent, the Cold Continent, the Wild Continent, the Ancient Continent, and the Black Continent.
It occupies approximately three percent of the total number of stars in the Starry Dream.
Xiaoyi used his knowledge of statistics to make calculations.
It can be roughly calculated that the number of tree kings in the Cold Desolate Continent, the Savage Continent, and the Great Desolate Continent is about one million, and the number of tree kings in the Black Desolate Continent is about half a million. The Manghuang Continent has the least, with at most five thousand tree kings.
However, many of the King Trees in the Wilderness Continent have been cut down by humans. The original total number of King Trees in nature should be no less than 20,000.
"It can be seen that the Wilderness Continent should have the smallest area... but the fastest development... As for the Black Wasteland Continent, it was originally about a million tree kings, but most of it was fibrous, resulting in only fifty Ten thousand trees."
Duke was not sure how many worlds were connected by the stars' dreams, and how many worlds had been fiberized by the gods.
But he probably already knew what the goddess Nyx had inspired her to do.
There is no previous civilization, there are only gods born in other worlds in the dreams of stars. And as the world was destroyed by the gods, it fell asleep and decayed, and finally only some divine thoughts were left, integrated with the spiritual arcana.
Become what is called the Will of the Stars.
"The hometown of Goddess Nyx may have been as prosperous as the Wilderness Continent, but the development of spiritual arcana has attracted the gnawing of the gods... In the end, the world became fibrous, and everything became a dream... Perhaps, this is The reason why He chose me."
Whether it is the Wilderness Continent, the Black Wasteland, or the world of the goddess Nyx, they all operate according to the rules of spiritual arcana.
Therefore, Goddess Nyx believes that this is not a sustainable development path. Sooner or later, she will be in trouble with the gods because of spiritual arcana. Therefore, He did not give Duke any spiritual arcane revelation, and only allowed Duke to be himself.
"That's right!"
Duke figured it out a little more: "In the end, these worlds may not be able to escape the bite of the gods. Therefore, the goddess Nyx hopes that I will take her far away!" Only the combination of earth technology and spiritual arcana , under the leadership of Duke, quickly entered the interstellar era, and only then could he be taken far away.
"Go far away" in the true sense!
"It's just that if I really want to leave..." Duke frowned.
He was originally alone, and he could treat anyone with a normal attitude, and just left, regardless of whether the gods would destroy the world or not.
But things are different now, there are too many ties.
My wife, teachers, friends... If I really want to leave, how can I bear it, but if I take them away, I need to cut off too many bonds.
"Forget it, why are you thinking so much? The ship will go straight to the bridge... Besides, if we really want to enter the interstellar era, we can't do large-scale immigration, build spaceships hard, and transfer all the people from the wild continent... Take your time, we are so far away from God It’s still early for the evil to eat the world.”
There are not many scars on the earth in the wilderness continent, and there are no signs of activity of the evil for a long time, leaving plenty of time for Duke to develop safely.
"Duke?"
"Duke?"
Celsus' voice brought Duke back to reality from his thoughts: "What's wrong, sir?"
"What are you thinking about, so absorbed in your thoughts?"
"It's nothing... I thought about what Goddess Nyx told me when I activated the Will of the Stars. She said that the past of this world has withered and there is no hope for the future... Could it be that the evil being is the culprit of destroying the world?" "
God Evil?" Selsus shook his head, "I don't think this kind of thing can destroy the world. Besides, the evil has been melted into scars on the earth, and it is impossible to cause trouble to the world again." After a pause
.
He comforted: "Don't always put the inspiration of the goddess Nyx as pressure on your heart. The development of spiritual arcana is very good. Regardless of whether the previous civilization exists or not, we will unswervingly move towards glory! "
Like all the stars, Thersus was not intimidated by the enlightenment of the goddess Nyx, and he was full of confidence in the future.
In fact, things are going great right now.
"Okay." Duke said no more, waved his hand, and the clone shattered into dots of fluorescent light.
His consciousness returned to his true body, and he woke up on the vajra oak tree in the cold desert continent, next to the joyfully singing cyclone god Harpiah.
"Duke, are you awake?" Harpie glanced over.
Several wilderness angels were combing its feathers to make it comfortable and comfortable.
Although civilization has not developed, wilderness gods like Harpie have a really good life and enjoy every day.
"Wake up."
"Are you still going to the Golden Goat Tribe?" Harpie asked.
A few years ago, another group of Owads from the Golden Goat Tribe came to the Cyclone Forest to learn the power of the wilderness from the Cyclone God.
Naturally, Duke got to know the Golden Goat Tribe.
I met the Druid of the Golden Goat tribe and a totem shaman, and learned a lot of skills in using the power of the wilderness, as well as a lot of totems.
all of these.
After he returned to the Wilderness Continent, he was successively announced and became part of the Qi Refining Ring.
"I'm not going, I'll just take a rest." Duke already knew something about the Cold Wasteland. The humans here are still in the tribal age. The Druid Way and the Shaman Way are the only two ways of practice. There are no three ways. In the sea, civilization has just sprouted.
So no matter how much you wander around, you will just find more primitive tribes and learn more totems.
He also conducted experiments and gave the indigenous people here the Sanhai potion to drink.
There is no native who can open the three seas - just like the results of his experiments on the Asiba tribe in the wild continent, no oak man can open the three seas.
It is obvious that the power of several worlds has the same origin, but the results are different.
After taking a rest and taking out a piece of food from the exclusive starry sky, Duke quickly bid farewell to Harpie, entered the dreamland of stars, and then traveled to another world - the prehistoric continent.
"I feel comfortable, the aura is really strong!"
Among these worlds.
Duke's favorite place to travel is this wild continent in the Rainfall era.
There are no higher intelligent animals here, and the forest is probably still dominated by large reptiles such as dinosaurs. Moreover, Duke also encountered living gods here, that kind of weird maggot-like monsters crawling on the ground.
Looking for spiritual springs to feed on.
Duke could deduce from the appearance that this was a juvenile divine creature, but he did not get close, for fear of accidentally being hit.
after all.
The weird thing about divine evil is that it can break the rules of spiritual arcana, and Duke's abilities are all given by spiritual arcana.
Even the Sand Eagle Pistol, which is more profound than the rules of spiritual arcana, still has to be embodied in the rules of spiritual arcana. For example, 0 and 1 are computer languages, but programming uses C language. The spiritual arcana is the C language of the Wilderness Continent.
The Sand Eagle pistol is written using 0s and 1s, but no matter how profound it is, it still has to be run using a program designed in C language.
Divine Evil directly breaks the C language, so many spiritual and arcane methods are ineffective against it.
Before Duke was promoted to the stars, he didn't want to find trouble with the gods. Anyway, he would be promoted to the stars in more than ten years, so there was no need to take this risk.
"The spiritual energy of the Great Desolate Continent is extremely rich. Even in ordinary places, there are concentrations of small spiritual springs on the Great Desolate Continent. And the spiritual energy concentration of some small spiritual springs is comparable to the large spiritual springs of the Great Desolate Continent." As for the Great Desolate Continent
, A large spiritual spring on the mainland, the concentration of spiritual energy is comparable to that of the Whale Song Mirror Lake in the Holy City of Arcane.
Duke has discovered many tree kings on the ancient continent, and the place he is currently traveling to is the tree king beside a large spiritual spring - the third-ring great elf tree king - Water-avoiding Acrophysalis, as its name suggests. Because it can avoid water, Duke named it the water-avoiding tree.
Crash.
There was heavy rain around the Elf Tree King's water-avoiding tree, but the crown of the water-avoiding tree's crown and the lower part of the crown were still dry.
The invisible aura cover covers the water-proof tree trunks so that even rainwater cannot penetrate.
"It's quite comfortable to practice here." Duke sat cross-legged happily on the tree trunk of the water-sheltering tree. It often rains in the ancient continent, making the environment damp and depressing. However, here in the water-sheltering tree, it is always dry.
With each breath, spiritual energy overflows in the chest and abdomen, and is absorbed by the spiritual sea.
Turned into boiling spiritual particles, surging towards the sixth ring, contributing to Duke's practice.
"The Cold Desolate Continent, where all things are filled with energy; the Ancient Desolate Continent, where the spiritual energy is fragrant... The Savage Continent, where the spiritual beasts have abundant energy and blood... These three worlds are like one focusing on the development of the Qi Sea, one focusing on the development of the Blood Sea, and one focusing on the development of the Blood Sea. Develop the spiritual sea."
Of course.
Among these three worlds, there are indigenous people in the Cold Desolate Continent and the Savage Continent, but they cannot open up the Three Seas; in the Prehistoric Continent, there are simply no indigenous people.
"The power of the three seas exists in every world, but the emphasis is different. But the three seas seem to be unique to the Manghuang Continent?" Duke thought casually, "In this way, the power of the three seas in the Manghuang Continent is balanced. , but not outstanding."
The concentration of spiritual energy in the Wilderness Continent is not as good as that in the Wilderness Continent; the energy and blood power of spiritual beasts is not as strong as that in the Wilderness Continent; and the energy of all things is not as good as that in the Cold Wasteland Continent.
As for the Black Wasteland.
It seems that the power of the three seas is also balanced, but currently most of it has been eroded by the evil spirits, and the evil spirit has become the strongest existence.
Xiaoyi is working hard to hang up and practice.
Duke was bored, so he took out a notebook and a pen from the exclusive starry sky, and started writing and drawing randomly on them.
Inspiration.
"A continent is a continent, a world is a world, and a planet is a planet... let's call the wilderness continent the Earth Star." Duke wanted to use "Earth Star" to commemorate the earth where he lives. "The cold wilderness continent is simply called the Air Star; the wilderness continent is the Earth Star." The continent is called Blood Star; the prehistoric continent is called Spirit Star."
On the Black Desolate Continent, he scrawled the name "Death Star" in his notebook.
is scribbling.
Xiaoyi suddenly reminded: "Master, Aaron is here."
"Well, my little Aaron is waiting for my contract." Duke stood up and flew towards the little green dot on the Dou Qi holographic screen.
After a while, the little green dot arrived.
In the grass in front of Duke, a beautiful big butterfly slowly flapped its wings and looked at Duke with some confusion.
Like Oak Spirit and Ogham, this big butterfly is a big spirit.
But no one taught it. Although it was wise, it was as ignorant as the beast, and it didn't even know what it was. It was probably raised by a group of small dinosaurs that lived here before, so Duke gave it the name "Along".
Aaron is wary of Duke, so Duke hasn't contracted him yet.
He has already contracted with many great elves, so he is very patient with Aaron and is prepared to cultivate his relationship first before making a contract.
The water-avoiding alpine tree is his training ground, and he has enough time to spend it.
"Spiritual crystal, do you want to eat it or not?" Duke said, having already taken out a piece of spiritual crystal in his hand, and threw it directly to Aaron.
Aaron had become accustomed to Duke's feeding. When he flapped his wings, the spiritual crystal floated in front of him. Then he flew away with the spiritual crystal and began to nibble on it.
While eating, he raised his head from time to time to look at Duke.
Duke smiled gently.
Little by little, Aaron's inner defense melted away.
But at this moment, Duke suddenly raised his head and looked at the rain curtain in the distance. A juvenile divine evil had appeared on the Dou Qi holographic screen.
He is dragging his fat body and crawling towards here.
"I like this water-proof tree!" Duke jumped up and appeared next to Aaron. His arcane hand directly grabbed Aaron's wings, "So, we can't play anymore, Aaron, hurry up and make a contract. Get rid of the water-proof alpinia!"
Aaron struggled.
But the hand of the arcane weapon was already familiar with it. By controlling its mouthparts and using dark attribute mind control arcane spells, Aaron bit Duke's finger in a daze.
A drop of blood spreads instantly.
The elf contract was concluded successfully.
"Good buddy, go ahead and take away the water-avoiding algae!" Duke patted Aaron's wings, and Aaron began to swallow the water-avoiding algae again.
The huge Elf Tree King quickly condensed into a seed and fell into Aaron's mouth.
Wow!
Without the spiritual cover of the water-proof alpinia, heavy rain poured down. The evil being not far away was already exuding a strong evil aura and slowly approached despite the heavy rain.
Duke glanced at it, but instead of showing off, he took Aaron directly and flew away into the distance.
He wants to find a new large-scale spiritual spring, put down the water-proof cypress trees, and create a new training place - he can still enjoy the training environment of the Holy City of Arcane without living in the Holy City of Arcane.
