Chapter 681 Natural Disaster Competition
Lu Yao read the self-narration of Xue Li, the alien visitor.
She came to the Resurrection Kingdom through [When the Stars Shine] and exchanged consciousness with a local girl named Mia.
[Dagos] where Xue Li was located was a special world. The underground [Magic Well] blew out, causing death to wrap the earth, and various monsters grew wildly. Some locals did not climb up the giant trees that were also growing and rising due to the magic well, while others hid underground.
The Dagos people mastered two technologies, [Magic Bottle] and [Rune].
The former can store the magic energy gushing out of the magic well, and the latter is the wisdom bestowed on them by the [Thousand-Faced God] of the Dagos people.
The ancient Dagos people have always used magic bottles, and their daily lives are inseparable from this seemingly inexhaustible energy storage prop.
Rune is a directional use of magic energy, and it requires specific materials to exert its power.
Hunter Xue Li said that the rune was engraved on the bow she used, and a magical spell was combined in a specific sequence. This spell restrains and shapes the power, acts on the props to cast the spell, and then penetrates and restrains the prey through the arrow.
Lu Yao looked at it strangely.
The Dagus people made it very complicated. They chose male and female users, and they also needed to correspond to specific materials. They also needed to customize the rune combination... Only with the support of high-consumption magic energy carriers such as magic horns, they could finally cast the spell.
Traditional spellcasting requires the user to have spell abilities, and then to start by consuming mana.
In the country of secret arts, people would use spell scrolls to cast spells.
Both ways of casting spells are simpler and more convenient.
Xueli said: "I don't know the details, but the rune was once very powerful. It could be used to restrain and govern many magic wells, and was also used to tame various monsters. These can be seen in the broken stone carvings and clay tablets on the ground ruins."
"It's just that as the old people in Shu Village kept dying, the powerful bows and props in the village were either lost or damaged, and most of them can't be used."
"When Grandma Qiao was young, our village was very strong!"
Xueli had a glowing expression on her head.
She tried her best to explain: "We used to have javelins that could shoot from one magic tree to another, and could shoot flying monsters down from high altitudes."
"We have a large bow that can shoot five arrows at a time, and each arrow can accurately hit the eyes and throat of the prey."
"And there is also a flying shield. As long as people step on the flying shield, they can control it to fly, and the monsters in the sky and on the ground can't keep up with its speed!"
...
The female hunter had a gloomy expression on her head: "It's a pity that no one can repair these high-level magic props. If one is broken, there will be one less. Now we can only use the simplest bows and grappling hooks. Really, we were very strong before..."
Mao Cao comforted him: "Every civilization has its ups and downs. This is a normal cycle. I believe that the Dagus people must have made great achievements in civilization, otherwise they would not be able to control the supernatural power of the magic well."
"Yes, yes, that's what I mean. You said it very well."
Xue Li said again: "It's a pity that the [Thousand-Faced God] should not be very strong. If he is as powerful as Lord Yao, Dagus must have a chance to be saved."
Lu Yao is no longer surprised.
Look at the messenger of the gods next door. His attitude towards the kingdom of God is very clear. If it can produce population and faith, it is worth further investment. If it falls into high risk or continuous loss, it will restart the civilization. If it doesn't work, it will be directly destroyed or abandoned. The next one is better.
For most gods, civilization is just a production tool, and no civilization is irreplaceable.
Not to mention that [Dagus] is flooded with magic wells everywhere. The cost of repairing such a world is extremely high. It is better to open up a new civilization.
Lu Yao logged into the committee's database and entered [Runes].
A bunch of related entries popped up on the page.
"... Odin hung upside down from the World Tree, wounded by a spear, and sacrificed himself to himself. During the long ceremony, Runes gradually condensed in the World Tree, and were picked up and collected by Odin one by one."
"After Odin fell in [Ragnarok], the further development of Runes was completely interrupted, and there were only a handful of civilizations that mastered Runes."
It turned out to be Odin.
Lu Yao followed the clues.
He found that among Odin's many titles, there was [The Thousand-Faced God]. It seemed that the [Wheel Star] in the Dagoth world was left by him.
This Nordic God King did not deliberately abandon the Dagoth civilization, he just died.
Lu Yao decided to rescue the Dagoth world.
In terms of benefits, [Magic Bottle] and [Runes] are very attractive.
In terms of personal interest, Lu Yao is also very interested in the local [Magic Well].
Where is the source of the magic energy that keeps gushing out from the ground?
Are magic wells common in all worlds, or are they just the product of the special environment in which Dagus is located?
As a special energy world, the world of Dagus itself has extremely high research and reference value for the Yao clan.
Coordinates are needed to complete the world docking.
Lu Yao plans to use the power of the [Star Casting Wheel] to let Xue Li return to Dagus to build a statue, and then let the villagers offer their faith, so that they can be positioned through population options.
But in reality, the two girls have never exchanged back.
In Lu Yao's bird's-eye view, Xue Li has been eating everywhere, and the red panda Zhichong next to her can't help but persuade her.
"Eat less... your body can't hold up if you keep going like this."
"We Dagos people should not starve to death!"
Xue Li held a chicken leg in his hand and said with a bulging bag in his mouth: "You have to eat before you can go back to help everyone fight against the disaster."
"But it's useless for you to eat it. This is Mia's body, and your body is still in Dagos..."
Xue Li said: "Being mentally full is also full. I want to eat 'sweet and ice'!"
"..."
Maocao explained: "Sir, the duration of these three [When the Stars Shine] are different. The first time was the shortest, lasting about 3 hours, the second time lasted 14 hours, and this time was the longest. It’s been more than 5 days.”
"And each interval seems irregular. The first and second times were separated by a month, but the second and third times were only two days apart."
Lu Yao was also at a loss.
The description of "When the Stars Shine" makes it very clear that the lives of random individuals briefly overlap.
Then enable backup methods.
Lu Yao finds Finn, the Lord of Tides.
Although this full-time spirit collector is very enthusiastic about mining, he is also unambiguous when it comes to business: "Master Zhengshen, through turbulent tides, you can sense the impacted world. But it takes a lot of time to screen these tidal creatures one by one. A long time, maybe hundreds of years.”
Lu Yao asked him to try first and then talk.
"yes."
The Lord of Tides turned into a ball of blue light rising into the sky and quickly disappeared without a trace.
While the two sides were waiting, Lu Yao also held a meeting of gods, allowing the gods to express their opinions and brainstorm.
The god has not spoken yet, and a prompt pops up in the simulator.
[Mia offered a sacrifice. 】
Mia?
Isn't she eating and drinking like crazy here?
Lu Yao immediately came to his senses. It was not Xue Li, but the real Mia.
He double-clicked to view.
The perspective jumped to a new scene that Lu Yao had never seen before.
It is located on a giant tree, with houses built between the branches and branches. In the center of the view is a statue of Yao carved from wood.
In the heavy snow, a small female figure wearing a fur coat prayed in front of the statue. It was Mia. Several children nearby also followed her example and knelt down, but most of the adults further away were still watching.
There is a text box above Mia's head: "Lord Yao Shen, the people in the village have offered sacrifices to you. This is their most precious thing..."
The stone table in front of the statue has [Gifts] on the left and [Sacrifice] on the right.
[Sacrifice] contains a strange-shaped bronze vessel. The upper part is a funnel, and the lower part is a large jar. There are many symbols engraved on the surface, like some kind of special large container or sacrificial vessel.
Lu Yao moved the mouse to the sacrifice.
…
[Magic Bottle]: It can contain and store part of the energy erupted from the magic well.
【Charging】
Charge the prop briefly to allow it to carry a little energy.
…
Well done! Mia.
Lu Yao was overjoyed.
Xue Li is still eating and drinking in order to become a ghost, but Mia is already organizing everyone to build statues of gods and offer sacrifices to the gods to seek attention.
The Yao children are still clear-headed.
Lu Yao dragged the mouse to zoom out and observed the local situation.
The entire world of Dagoth is covered in black fog. There are no settlements or cities on the ground, only holes of different sizes. Those holes tearing apart the earth spit out pillars of black smoke, as if they are being burned.
These holes are shown as [Magic Wells].
Various monsters appear around the magic well. Their levels range from LV40 to LV90. They are extremely numerous and compete for territory close to the magic well like they are fighting for water sources. The closer the monster is to the magic well, the higher its level will be.
The last living area of mankind is in the giant trees. The villages in the trees are scattered with few people. After the cataclysm destroyed the civilization on the ground, the Dagoth people returned to a more primitive way of life.
These trees were also transformed and mutated by demonic energy, and they were as tall and majestic as mountain peaks. On the ground, the roots of the giant tree are flexible and powerful tentacles that will strangle and hunt any monsters that come close, sucking them dry and turning them into nutrients for themselves.
But not all giant trees are so strong.
Lu Yao observed that the trunks of many giant trees had their roots cut off by other monsters, and the trunks had become yellow and rotten, and could collapse at any time.
Without further ado.
Lu Yao ordered Mao Cao to immediately form a rescue army in the Resurrection Kingdom to rescue the world of Dagos. The first task is to ensure the personal safety of Mia, a Yao girl who lives in the local area, rescue the nearby Dagos people, and eliminate monsters around Shushu Village to ensure the safety and stability of the area.
"Yes, sir."
The calico cat took the order and immediately started a nationwide emergency mobilization with King Raymond.
Lu Yao clicked on the [Super Remote Portal] in front of the Shucun Statue to connect this place to the Resurrection Kingdom to facilitate the arrival of the rescue army.
At this time, there was no one around the statue, and even Mia, who had been praying devoutly before, disappeared.
He couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
Brothers are so busy, so your patience in praying is a little too short.
God has to give some time to save the world, right?
Soon, Lu Yao discovered something unusual.
The snowflakes in the sky solidified, as if frozen by some unknown force.
Lu Yao widened his perspective to the nearby virtual space.
There is a strange flat area above the world of Dagoth, where the black smoke is neatly cut off, forming a strange horizontal line.
Can't be so unlucky?
Lu Yao immediately called Finn, the Lord of Tides, and asked him to conduct an on-the-spot appraisal.
At the same time, Lu Yao also activated a gravel world contact [Dagos] to complete the anchorage. Now he is very familiar with this operation.
displayed on the screen.
[Discover the anchorable world: Dagoth]
[Do you want to connect this world to the Tree of Sylvanus? 】
[It is expected to consume 64418923 faith]
With 64 million beliefs, this world does not look simple.
Lu Yao points out yes.
Then a line of red text appears on the simulator.
[Anchoring failed due to abnormality in nearby rules. 】
Lu Yao clicked continuously to try, but kept getting failed.
It seems to be related to the abnormal environment here.
After a while.
"Lord Zhengshen, it is indeed the [Virtual Mirror]... This is in the area near the border zone of the leap zone, very close to the virtual mirror above."
Cold sweat broke out on the Lord of Tides' head: "Although Virtual Mirror has not yet touched this world, just getting close will cause the movement of all things to stagnate. For safety reasons, it is best to stay away from here... to avoid unpredictable risks. After all, it is It’s a natural disaster, you can’t be like it.”
Lu Yao frowned.
Reason told him that Finn was right. Taking Mia and the locals away from this unknown danger was the safest way.
But running away without firing a shot is not his Yao style.
Whether you can beat him or not, you have to take action to know.
Even if his opponent is a natural disaster, Lu Yao is not used to it.
Having said that, you are a natural disaster, and I also have a natural disaster in my hands. Why should I retreat?
Lu Yao decided to have a try with Xu Jing.
He activated a red void world and moved it past the road sign to reach the top of [Dagos].
Then Lu Yao activated the vortex cannon.
Optional reload: 10 micro-gravel boundary cannons.
Accelerate into orbit.
Acceleration is completed in 3 seconds.
Adjust the angle.
Lu Yao clicked the mouse and selected the target - Chixu World.
emission!
The 10 gravel cannons suddenly accelerated after passing through the road sign of the Road Goddess, and hit the suspended red virtual world at high speed. The red fireworks suddenly bloomed, and the dust storm instantly covered the surrounding area.
Lu Yao watched the changes on the screen nervously.
He saw that the originally invisible cross-section was broken by the red dust storm, and circles of ripples appeared on its surface.
Chixu completely tore the virtual mirror apart in the center of the impact area and broke through to the other side. It was like a high-speed airflow penetrating a transparent film, forming an ever-expanding red inverted triangular cone behind it.
At this time, the hidden structure of the virtual mirror also showed visible damage and wrinkles. Circles and circles of ripples rippled in the virtual space, and white arcs flashed along the edges of the impact zone, as if they were some kind of precision machinery with short-circuited wires.
Lu Yao couldn't help but feel proud.
This is the charm of X-level natural disasters!
Who is afraid of whom?
Lu Yao is not all above, he also has objective considerations.
When facing Chixu, even Tai Sui, who was as strong as Tai Sui, would give way. This was the only opponent Tai Sui showed respect to, and the others were all eaten and crushed.
When facing Tai Sui directly, Chixu would also make detours. Since Chixu itself is just a kind of dust storm radiation, there is no so-called intellectual evasion. So the biggest reason is that Tai Sui changed the natural rules around him, allowing Chi Xu to slide away from him.
The [Virtual Mirror] in front of us obviously does not have this ability to flexibly change the rules. The effects it currently displays are [Time Stop] and [Press into the Mirror].
It's more like a phenomenon caused by special rules.
Lu Yao once again tries to anchor the Dagos world.
This time no red letter appeared.
Anchoring successful!
Lu Yao felt relieved, and it was indeed because of the interference of the virtual mirror.
He immediately controlled [Dagos], migrated through the road signs, and arrived at the ring boundary group of Yunzhong Temple.
After completing this step, Lu Yao finally relaxed.
Strategic goal achieved!
He looked at the screen with a relaxed mood.
Chixu is still spreading in all directions.
The virtual mirror cannot be observed directly, but after being ignited, it can be identified by the ripples it emits and distorts the space.
Chixu burned a hole in the virtual mirror, then floated and stretched towards the other side. It seems that igniting and burning the virtual mirror also requires a large amount of Chixu's energy.
Lu Yao was very satisfied with the result.
Let's have a natural disaster competition today, until the point is reached, only the difference is high and low, not life or death.
withdraw.
