Chapter 1923 Abyssal Purgatory
After buying the Bev man, Leo found a hotel nearby to stay in. This hotel was not opened by the abyss, nor by the surviving races of the fallen world, but by people from the normal world. It's open.
Unlike what Leo thought, the relationship between the abyss and other worlds is not just a relationship between erosion and being eroded. In fact, there are some powerful worlds that can resist the erosion of the abyss and retain their connection with the abyss in order to make that world Adventurers or powerful hunters enter the abyss to hunt abyssal creatures and obtain precious materials. At the same time, because of the existence of ordered cities like Bone City, people from those worlds will also come here to conduct various trades.
These people from other normal worlds are actually easy to identify because they are not affected by the power of order, so they do not need to wear cloaks or clothes that cover their whole bodies. Some people even like the light of order falling from the sky, so they will Deliberately wearing as little clothing as possible to expose his entire body to the light of Symmetra, the builder of the hotel that Leo has chosen now is a race that favors Symmetra.
This race has a series of extremely convoluted race names, but because their appearance is very similar to lizards, Leo calls them lizard people.
Although the lizard people look very barbaric in appearance, in fact their level of civilization is very high, at least higher than the level of civilization in the human civilization worlds on the World Tree, and almost as good as the civilization of the universe.
Through a brief exchange, Leo discovered something surprising. The world where these lizardmen are located is not the world of Yggdrasil, but comes from subspace. Their civilization has developed subspace navigation technology, and it was very early on. They have had contact with the Abyss before. After experiencing several abyss invasions, the world of lizard people has mastered a very complete set of abyss defense and clearance technologies, and thousands of years ago the lizard people began to explore and explore the abyss. Excavation of abyssal resources.
Although the lizard man's cold-blooded nature prevented him from having any emotions that humans should have, Leo could still feel the hotel owner's pride in his tribe from the other's subtle physical expressions.
The reason why this lizard man is willing to communicate with Leo is mainly because Leo can use the observer's communication ability to communicate spiritually with him. Their tribe seems to have been in contact with the observer before and has established a very good relationship.
So, Leo took the opportunity to ask the lizard man in front of him: "I am looking for the domain of an abyss lord. The abyss lord is a woman named Sylvia. Of course, it may be another name."
"Sylvia?" The lizard man thought for a moment, then shook his head and replied: "The Abyss Lord is very mysterious. I only know one Abyss Lord, but it is definitely not the Sylvia you mentioned. He is the food The King of Ghouls, the First Lord of Purgatory, the Abyss Lord you are looking for can only be found in the lower levels of Purgatory.”
"First Purgatory?" Leo knew the name of the Ghoul King. This name was very deep in the incomplete memory of the Abyss Serpent, but there was no mention in that memory that the Ghoul King was the Lord of the Abyss, nor Recording some name like First Purgatory, Leo had a look of confusion on his face.
The lizard man did not hesitate to explain, saying: "You must have just come to the abyss from the outside world, so you don't know the specific conditions of the abyss. The entire abyss is composed of countless broken spaces. These broken spaces are under the powerful influence of the will of the abyss. It is kneaded into a section, so the space of the abyss looks like an endless flat continent, but it is actually layered, but the layering of space cannot be observed using conventional space observation methods. It’s all because the spaces are layered and intertwined, and the location is disordered and chaotic, often wandering in the abyss, but there is one place where the space is fixed, and that place is purgatory.”
As he spoke, the lizard man waved, and a huge insect that looked like a bee flew down from the hotel upstairs. The insect flew in front of the lizard man and hovered in the air. The lizard man reached out and scratched the insect's abdomen. , and then saw several liquid balls squeezed out from the insect's tail floating in the air. The lizard man randomly took a liquid ball and stuffed it into his mouth, as if he was tasting some kind of delicious food.
Although the lizard man also motioned for Leo to taste it, Leo found it difficult to swallow when he thought of the position where the liquid ball was squeezed out. He could only shake his head and refuse, and continued to ask about purgatory.
After the lizard man ate all the remaining liquid balls, he continued: "Purgatory was first discovered by Quador Demon, but it was snatched away by the Ghoul King, who occupied the top floor of Purgatory. , became the first Abyss Lord. Later, successive Abyss superiors successfully transferred the areas they controlled to the lower levels of Purgatory and became new Abyss Lords. It is said that Purgatory has increased to seventeen levels, which means that there are seventeen levels. "The Abyss Lord, I think the Abyss Lord you are looking for should be among them."
"How can I go to purgatory?" Leo asked again.
"It's very simple." The lizard man pointed at the eye-catching gate of the abyss and said, "Each gate of the abyss can lead to the corpse city of the first level of purgatory, but if you want to enter the next level of purgatory, you need to go through Go through the realm of the Ghoul King, go to the Black River, find the ferryman there, and take a boat to the lower purgatory.”
Leo frowned and asked, "Isn't there a gate to the abyss that leads directly to the lower purgatory?"
"Yes," the lizardman replied, "but the Quador demons will not let you use them. They control the gates to the abyss of different purgatory, which is equivalent to controlling all the resources of that layer of purgatory. With their greedy nature, how could they let you use them?"
When it comes to the Quador demons, the lizardmen are quite disdainful. It seems that they have had more than one conflict with the Quador demons in business. Moreover, compared with the creatures of the abyss, the extreme transactions that the Quador demons can wipe out the entire race are obviously not very suitable for the lizardmen, because the lizardmen are not the race of the abyss. Although the will of the abyss is strong, it can't control the wider subspace.
Leo asked again: "Is there any secret technique like space movement that can directly go to the lower purgatory?"
"I don't know about that." The lizard man thought about it, shook his head, and said: "I don't think it is possible, because if there is such a secret technique, why would the Quado Demon spend so much effort and so much profit to obtain the permission of the Abyss Lords to build the Abyss Gate in the layer of purgatory they control." He paused again, as if thinking of something and said: "But there is a legend that the Lord of the Black River that runs through the Abyss has the ability to send any living being to all places in the Abyss, but the Lord of the Black River is Whether it exists or not is still a question. Our people have not found any trace of the Lord of the Black River so far. "
When the lizard man mentioned the Lord of the Black River, a figure appeared in Leo's mind. This figure was the God of Death Gain. He remembered that he was sent directly from a world of the World Tree to the world controlled by Sylvia by the God of Death Gain. If what the lizard man said was true, then the God of Death Gain must have some connection with the legendary Lord of the Black River. If so, then the World Tree and the Abyss Black River may also have some connection. After all, the God of Death Gain is part of the Black Forest God System.
Leo didn't know much about the Black River. He just knew that the Black River ran through the abyss. The Black River Ferryman was a special creature born from the Black River. The purpose of their existence was to send people who came to the Black River to where they wanted to go. It was just that people who took the ferry had to pay some price. As for what the price was, there was no record in Leo's database.
At this moment, the lizard man suddenly looked at the Bev man who had been standing next to Leo like a wooden man, and said, "Where did you find this slave?"
"In the slave market outside." Leo pointed outside the hotel, and then asked casually, "Is there anything wrong with her?"
"No, there is no problem at all." The lizard man blinked his eyes, then took out a small ball from his pocket and put it in his mouth. At this time, his eyes had a layer of purple light, and then he heard him say, "No problem is the biggest problem. I have seen countless creatures and countless humans in the abyss. They come from different worlds and have the marks of their worlds. The moment they come to the abyss, they will also be branded by the abyss. This is inevitable." As he said, he looked at Leo and said, "Even a powerful existence like you can't avoid it." Then he pointed to the Bev man and said, "But she is the only exception I have seen. She is too pure, even purer than a newborn baby, so pure that it makes people feel unreal."
Leo looked at the Bev man without any expression or movement, thinking about the words of the lizard man in his heart.
Although the lizardman's words sounded a bit mysterious, Leo got a little inspiration from them and vaguely deduced the origin of the Bev man in front of him.
Leo had already obtained the information he wanted, so he did not talk to the lizardman anymore. He found an excuse and led Bev man to the hotel room.
After Leo left, the lizardman thought about it, turned back to his office, took out an item that looked like a communication device, and seemed to want to contact someone, but he suddenly stopped, a look of hesitation appeared on his face, and finally put the item back to its original place.
Obviously, the lizardman should have taken a fancy to Bev man and wanted to get her by some means, but he thought of the energy intensity he detected from Leo, and from the conversation just now, he vaguely felt that Leo might have a connection with an abyss lord, who was definitely a big shot he could not offend, so he suppressed his greed and did not do anything he shouldn't do.
In fact, he was lucky that he didn't do something he shouldn't have done. Otherwise, when he activated the communication tool, Leo, who was always monitoring his actions through the mental network, would have gotten rid of him to avoid complications.
However, Leo was also a little confused at this moment, because since the lizardman could easily find the difference between the Bev people, why didn't he find the Bev people in the slave market and buy them before.
You know, the stall selling the Bev people is not far from this hotel, and judging from the personnel in the lizardman hotel, the lizardman should often buy slaves of different races in the slave market, and the Bev people surrounded by various abyss species on the slave stall are not inconspicuous. As long as you meet them, you will definitely see the Bev people. Normally, the lizardman should not let go of this special slave.
Moreover, since this lizardman could discover the special beginning of the Bev man by his own ability, how could so many people in the slave market not discover the special situation of the Bev man? Isn't this extremely pure life form the best sacrifice? Moreover, this sacrifice can be reborn continuously, which is a treasure-like existence for any abyss race that worships sacrifice. It is impossible to wait for Leo to buy it.
Thinking of this, Leo turned his head and looked at the Bev man who seemed to have no soul and was like a vegetative person. He leaned down and said to her: "You deliberately attracted my attention and let me buy you, right?"
After Leo finished speaking, the Bev man did not respond.
Seeing this, Leo stretched out his hand and placed it on the planet mark on the forehead of the Bev man, and then used psychic skills to start checking the physical condition of the Bev man.
However, what disappointed him a little was that the physical condition of the Bev man was very normal, that is, the body of a normal human, but he also found that the physical condition of the Bev man could be called a perfect normal person, whether it was internal organs or muscles and bones, it was simply the perfect standard of a normal human body.
Leo had expected this, so he was not surprised. The real purpose of his inspection was to find the star god power in the Bev people, but he found nothing.
After repeated inspections and no results, Leo took back his psychic energy and planned to try other methods.
But when he took back his psychic energy, he felt something abnormal, as if there was a very weak energy attached to the psychic energy, which he took back together.
After realizing this, he tried to separate the weak power from the psychic energy, but the energy was too weak, so weak that no matter how careful Leo was, it was still dispelled by the energy fluctuations generated by his psychic energy at the moment of stripping.
Although he failed, Leo was not frustrated. Instead, a smile appeared on his face. Then he continued to use his psychic skills to scan the Bev people's bodies. Every time he completed a scan, he would take back his psychic energy and check the situation of the psychic energy. As a result, not every time there was abnormal energy attached to the psychic energy.
However, he did not care. Instead, he peeled off the spiritual energy attached with abnormal energy and put it aside. Then he continued to scan Bev's body, constantly generating spiritual energy attached with abnormal energy, and then blended this kind of spiritual energy together, making the abnormal energy attached to it become thicker.
