Chapter 1850: Extraordinary People and Gods
Leo can understand Bernardo's misunderstanding. There is no extraordinary person or extraordinary power in this world, and the power Leo showed is completely inhuman. Seeing this situation, think about what Leo said just now. , it is difficult not to make him have some wrong associations.
"No." Leo shook his head and said, "I am still far from the level of a god. I can only be regarded as an extraordinary person."
"Extraordinary person." Bernardo muttered the word, and then asked with a little expectation: "Can I become an extraordinary person like you?"
"No." Leo directly dispelled Bernardo's delusion and said solemnly: "Even in other worlds, there are very few people who have the ability to become extraordinary people. Even among a hundred thousand people, they may not be able to. It’s even more impossible to have one appear in this world.”
"Why?" Bernardo asked, "Why is it impossible in this world?"
"Because this world doesn't allow it." Leo said the core secret of this world in a deep voice. I don't know if it was a coincidence. Just when he said this sentence, several lightning bolts suddenly flashed in the sky, and then Several thunders were heard in the sky, and then huge raindrops fell from the sky, hitting the top of the tent with a crackling sound.
Bernardo was also startled by the sudden thunder. He opened the door curtain and looked at the heavy rain outside, with a thoughtful look on his face. If it were in the past, he might have thought it was a rainstorm. It was a coincidence, but now that he understood the existence of extraordinary powers in the world, he felt that this might be a revelation, a revelation from the world.
After putting down the door curtain, Bernardo turned to look at Leo, suppressed the vague feeling of uneasiness in his heart, and continued to ask: "What does it mean that it is not allowed in this world?"
Leo did not intend to hide it, but told what he knew: "This world excludes, no, it should not be said to be rejected, it should be said to be suppressed. This world suppresses all release-type extraordinary powers, so even if There are people in this world who have the qualifications to become extraordinary, and it is impossible for them to obtain the support of any extraordinary power from the world to surpass the limits of the human body and complete the evolution of the human body.”
Leo tried his best to explain in a language that Bernardo could understand, and even so, Bernardo was a little confused, but he already roughly understood what Leo meant, and reluctantly knew that the world did not allow extraordinary people to exist.
"Since the world does not allow extraordinary power, then the extraordinary power you just showed..." Bernardo asked again in confusion.
Leo explained: "The power in the body is not limited. After every extraordinary person's strength increases to a certain level, his body will undergo an evolution, which will make the body more able to adapt to extraordinary power. At the same time, the overall quality of the body will also change accordingly." Along with evolution, strength is just one of the basic qualities of improvement.”
"Then do I also..." Bernardo asked again.
Leo interrupted Bernardo and said: "Unfortunately, that's not possible. I have already said that the world needs to allow extraordinary people to obtain additional power support from the world, complete the evolution of the body, and bridge the gap between ordinary people and extraordinary people. limits, but this world does not allow extraordinary people to exist,"
Bernardo frowned, as if he was a little dissatisfied with his expectations being shattered by Leo again and again, and his tone became a little stiffer, and said: "In that case, why do you want to tell me about the extraordinary things?" "
"No, what I want to tell you is not about extraordinary beings, but about gods." Leo didn't care about Bernardo's attitude, raised his hand and pointed at the golden statue of the Abyss Serpent, and said: "If in the future, the organization's personnel will deal with If we explore the underground world, we may have to face a god."
"God?" Bernardo was stunned, then looked at the golden statue with a shocked face and said, "Is that the Supreme Being?"
"What I said is not entirely correct," Leo thought for a moment and corrected: "In the abyss, the abyss serpent has the ability to travel through the world, which means that the abyss serpent has grown up, and any adult The serpents of the abyss all have power close to the gods, but they cannot be regarded as gods, and they are also far from the real gods. Perhaps it is more appropriate to call them demigods."
Although Bernardo didn't understand the difference between gods and demigods, he knew that no matter what kind of existence a mortal like him could handle, he couldn't help but start to reconsider whether he should cooperate to explore the underground world.
At this time, Leo seemed to see through Bernando's mind, or that Bernardo's current thoughts were actually caused by Leo's deliberate guidance, so he said at the right time: "I just said, this world is a place that suppresses extraordinary power. In a very strong world, the stronger the power, the stronger the suppression. This is true for extraordinary people, and even more so for gods."
Bernardo seemed to understand what Leo wanted to express, and there was a look of contemplation on his face. After a while, he slowly said: "What you mean is that the abyss serpent is now very weak because of the suppression of the world. "
Leo nodded, and then said: "The abyss is a very special place. Devouring the fallen world is one of the meanings of its existence. Therefore, the creatures in the abyss appear because the abyss needs them to corrupt the world and make the world Fallen and then swallowed by the abyss, the Abyss Serpent is also one of them."
Bernardo was stunned for a while, and then asked in surprise: "Your Excellency just said that the Abyss Serpent is in the underground world, so does our world also..."
Before Bernardo could finish speaking, Leo shook his head and said: "According to common sense, even the Abyss Serpent has sneaked into this world and has become the belief of the indigenous tribes in the New World. This means that He has entered This world has been around for a long time, so not to mention the entire world, at least the New World should have been corrupted by Him. In fact, there is nothing unusual about the situation in the New World, even the Mumu tribe that regards the Abyss Serpent as a totem of faith There are no signs of being corrupted by the abyss, so there is only one possibility, that is, the power of the abyss serpent has been suppressed to the extreme by this world, and even the most basic corruption ability no longer exists. Perhaps only a slightly stronger one is left. Some bodies, so now is definitely the best time to deal with the Abyss Serpent."
Bernardo still didn't understand what Leo meant by what he said, because he had just seen the power that Leo showed, which could easily twist the hardest metal. Leo with such power was not something that mortals like them could do. It can be dealt with, let alone the god who is more powerful than Leo.
Leo continued: "If you alone cannot handle such a powerful existence, but if you add me, you may be able to accomplish some feats that the world cannot imagine, such as obtaining the body of a demigod."
When Bernardo heard this, a passion he had never experienced before instantly ignited in his heart. A wave of heat surged from his heart to his mind, causing a large number of thoughts to emerge out of thin air in his mind.
As Leo said, if you can get the body of a demigod, it will be able to prove the existence of the Supreme Being, and the entire world's knowledge will be overturned, and as the leader, he will inevitably become a prophet. Existence, thinking of this, Bernardo's breathing became rapid, and he felt like he was out of breath and about to suffocate.
When the turbulent emotions in his heart reached their peak, he stretched out his hand to unbutton the collar so that he could breathe easier. Then he turned to Leo with a serious face and asked, "How can we cooperate?"
The weather in the New World is like this, humid and rainy. One moment it was so clear that you could see the stars, and the next moment it was pouring with rain, as if someone was pouring water from the sky. It started raining last night and stopped at noon the next day. Coming down, the place where the pioneering team is stationed happens to be the lowest place in the entire camp. Although there are canals here that can guide water to the small river outside the camp, in order to prevent people from getting into the camp through the mouth of the canals, the canals are dug very narrow. , when the rain is light, there won't be any problem, but when the rain is heavy, the water in the entire camp will gather here and be drained out, which will inevitably cause water accumulation.
After several days of trekking, the pioneering team had not had time to rest. They were woken up before dawn, carried supplies, and cleaned up water. The work did not stop until noon. Many people in the pioneering team also fell ill. In order to prevent the disease from infecting other people, all those who were unwell were quarantined together, and these people totaled more than 300 people.
Before the official expansion into the depths of the jungle, the loss of personnel had already reached more than a thousand people. No matter how many rewards Bernando offered or how great his personal prestige was, it would be difficult to restore the fallen morale. So in the afternoon, Bernando Duo went to meet Joe in person, and the two talked for a long time in the tent. Finally, Bernando walked out of the tent with a cold face, and Joe followed him with a satisfied smile on his face.
Early the next morning, several letters were sent to different places by letter eagle. Not long after the letters were sent, Bernardo ordered the pioneering team to leave the current camp and go to a higher ground not far from the camp. vacant land to build temporary camps.
No one in the pioneering group objected to Bernardo's decision, because after a day, they were extremely disgusted with the people in this camp, and they all knew that if they continued to stay here, they would suffer even more, so it was better to spend more money He took some time to build a temporary camp by himself, and more importantly, Bernardo offered a large reward to everyone who built the camp, and it was given privately.
I don’t know if it’s because the monetary reward is too tempting, or if the people from the pioneering group want to complete the construction of the temporary camp as soon as possible for formal repairs. In short, the main body of the temporary camp has been completed in the evening, and even A wall was built that was not very strong but had some defensive capabilities.
On the night when the pioneering group settled in the camp he built, Bernando took out a lot of supplies to feed the pioneering group, which also improved the morale of the pioneering group to a certain extent, and assisted Bernando's pioneering group The logistics officer was quite dissatisfied with Bernardo's generosity, because the consequence of Bernardo's behavior was a shortage of logistics supplies. He was worried that before a new batch of supplies was sent from Ma Tau Bay, the pioneering group would supplies are used up.
For this reason, he went to Bernardo specifically to remind him of the current situation of the pioneering group. When he left Bernardo's tent, the worry on his face had disappeared. Obviously, Bernardo should have told him. Regarding the cooperation with the Nature Association, with the Nature Association joining, even if Ma Tau Bay does not provide any follow-up supplies, there will be no problems with the logistics of the pioneering team.
Just as Bernardo thought, on the second day of the pioneering group's stay in the temporary camp, a large amount of supplies were carried by a large number of slaves through the jungle and transported from the nearest Menis Port to the pioneering group's camp. According to the people who transported the supplies, more supplies would be delivered in the next few days. In addition, these people, including slaves, did not leave, but directly joined the pioneering group to replenish the lost manpower of the pioneering group.
This group of transporting supplies made a lot of noise, and was naturally discovered by the camp on the other side of Matou Bay. After they sent people to understand the situation, another eagle flew out of the camp and flew towards Matou Bay.
Although the land of the New World is a no-man's land in the eyes of various countries in the Novat continent, when they were developing the colony of the New World, in order to avoid unnecessary disputes and waste of money and time, they signed an agreement. This agreement is that as long as a fixed colonial settlement is built, the land within a certain range centered on this settlement will be regarded as a self-reserved colony developed by this settlement, and the pioneering groups of other kingdoms are not allowed to enter this area to develop colonial settlements.
Therefore, Bernardo has now found partners from other kingdoms outside Matou Bay to jointly develop a colonial settlement in Matou Bay's self-reserved colony, which can be said to violate the agreement signed by various countries, so the people of the Governor of Matou Bay will immediately report the matter.
However, it is not known whether Bernardo deliberately concealed some information or the people sent by the generals of the Matou Bay camp failed to find out a key information. The letter sent to Matou Bay did not mention that the partner invited by Bernardo was the Natural Association, not a single country. Therefore, even if the Governor of Matou Bay has an opinion on this, he cannot stop Bernardo through the tacit agreement signed by various countries, and can only interfere with Bernardo's plan from other aspects.
As for how Bernardo solves his own troubles and how to coordinate with the Governor of Matou Bay, Leo has always been a bystander. He has reached a cooperation agreement with Bernardo, and as part of the cooperation agreement, Bernardo will provide him with more books, and what surprised him was that the books provided by Bernardo did have a lot of useful content.
