Chapter 104 Today Is Also a Day Full of Hope
Jianhua University, meditation room.
As soon as her consciousness returned to her body, Sonia couldn't help but collapsed on the ground from exhaustion, and finally managed to hold herself up and sit against the wall, gasping for air. The exhaustion of the soul reflected back to the body, and soon a river of fragrant sweat dripped down the face along the collarbone, sliding into the depths of the dress like pearls.
She was exhausted.
It was not yet dawn outside. This was the first time she had exited the virtual realm so early, and Sonia still disliked her for retreating too slowly.
Just now, a total of eight knowledge creatures were chasing her and the viewers in the sea of knowledge for more than an hour. No matter how far or fast they escape, the intellectual creatures will pursue them relentlessly. Even if the viewer deliberately bumps into the territory of other intellectual creatures, the pursuers will not hesitate at all!
And after the viewer does that, the result is that the number of pursuers increases from eight to nine.
It stands to reason that they don't need to be so afraid. After all, they are just silver magicians. At the worst, they will hand over their first blood in the virtual realm. Anyway, magicians will die in the virtual realm after all, but there is a difference in the number of times.
They can persist until they condense the silver wings before dying. Among all magicians in the past and present, they can be regarded as the most outstanding handful of people. If there was a "ranking list of virgin magicians who experienced their first death at the latest" in the world of magicians, not to mention the top ten, but Sonia felt that she could at least be in the top 100.
But at the moment when they discovered that knowledge creatures were surrounding them, Sonia suddenly came up with a piece of secret knowledge. When she was escaping, the audience introduced the 'poison' brought by this secret knowledge to her.
"Expelling the Secret Poison"
"Details of the secret poison: When the magician stays in the same place in the virtual realm for too long, his scent will be detected by the surrounding knowledge creatures, which will arouse the hostility of the knowledge creatures and be regarded as a provocation to the indigenous people. The virtual realm is knowledge The home of living creatures, they do not allow intruders to settle here, and vow to expel and hunt intruders with a 'settlement tendency', and devour the souls of intruders."
"Number of people infected by secret poison: 31"
"Secret poison enhancement level: 31%"
"The current effect of the secret poison: it is easier to detect the surrounding knowledge creatures (the enhancement level reaches 51% and becomes a negative effect, and when it is reduced to 10%, it will gain a huge gain)."
Sonia understood why the school professors said that "you cannot stay in the same place for a long time in the virtual realm" was a taboo, but no one could tell the reason. Obviously the magicians were the ones who liked to inquire the most. It turned out to be because it was a secret. poison.
Unlike the Uzumaki Secret Poison, the Uzumaki Secret Poison is that the secret itself has extremely high utilization value, so those who know the secret are likely to share the secret with their relatives and friends, even at the risk of being poisoned.
But expelling the secret poison is meaningless. Now Sonia knows the truth about expelling the secret poison, so from now on she will remember that 'never stay in the same place for a long time', but the school has taught them this knowledge a long time ago!
Therefore, people who know how to expel the secret poison will not take the initiative to spread the secret poison. Naturally, the number of people infected by the secret poison is pitifully small. Most of them should have stayed unintentionally for too long, so they were unfortunately infected with the secret poison.
And according to Sonia and the viewers' painful experience last night, most people who know this secret poison will probably be eaten by the intellectual creatures at the first opportunity.
You must know that she and the viewer had a small boat to ride the wind and waves, and the two of them teamed up to barely escape the pursuers, and exited the virtual realm at the critical moment.
Sonia couldn't even imagine how desperate a single magician who could only move by swimming felt when he found himself surrounded by several intellectual creatures.
The most terrifying thing is that the "quantitative change" of the knowledge creature will cause the "qualitative change" of the magician's death.
As mentioned before, the death of a magician in the virtual realm will have serious consequences. This is because when the magician's consciousness returns to consciousness, the magician's soul still remains in the virtual realm, and the intellectual creatures will take the opportunity to take a big bite, causing the magician's soul to suffer. damage.
But after being bitten by a creature of knowledge, the magician's soul becomes lighter and returns faster, so the damage will not be too serious.
This is why Sonia and the viewers are running away like crazy. They are not being chased by one intellectual creature, but by nine intellectual creatures!
Each of these monsters takes the opportunity to take a bite, which is enough to eat up the souls of both of them, and it may not even be enough!
This is the reason why "you will die if you stay in the virtual realm for too long": the magician is divided and eaten by intellectual creatures, and the soul cannot return to the body at all. If the body waits for a long time, it will misunderstand the soul and fool around without itself, and die suddenly on the spot. .
Because of this unexpected incident, they had no time to explore tonight. They threw the pursuer some distance away and then exited the virtual realm. It can be said that except for a slight increase in the faction realm tonight, it was basically another night in vain. Even Still negative returns, it was already very troublesome to have a 'Vortex Secret Poison', but now adding a 'Expulsion Secret Poison' made Sonia feel that her mind was becoming more and more impure.
Although the effect of 'Expelling the Secret Poison' is currently a beneficial effect due to the small number of infected people, if the secret poison spreads in the future, it will turn into a negative effect sooner or later.
But no matter what, it's a good thing to survive. Sonia almost thought she was going to die in the virtual realm with the viewers just now.
Sonia took a long breath and left the meditation building.
The stars twinkled in the night, as bright as day, and the largest one was the waning gibbous moon star. It was like a star with a section missing from the circle, glowing with deep blue light, lighting up the roads in the school.
According to the moon phase chart, meteorologists will change the moon star to the 'waning moon star' tomorrow...Sonia was suddenly curious about what the blood moon looked like on the viewer's side, and whether it looked like the moon star in the starry kingdom. Same, will it be managed and replaced by the Meteorological Bureau?
Suddenly, a colorful halo bloomed in the night, startling Sonia. She took a closer look and found that the movement was from the giant white tower.
It is also listed as a warning area, and it is a gathering of magicians from all over Kalashi. Sonia is vaguely aware that the 'Void Realm Turbulence' on the white tower that can drop people is very important, but her current status is too low after all. There was no way to access such high-end information, so I could only watch from a distance and guess whether there was a group of professors having a carnival party inside.
Back in the dormitory, Sonia's hands and feet were light and did not wake up her roommates. There was no hot water late at night, so she took a shower with cold water, went to the balcony and stood to blow dry, waiting for her hair to dry naturally.
She clicked on the miracle bracelet and the light screen popped up, wanting to watch the new drama starring Deida Rose.
There was also a full-length mirror on the balcony. Sonia caught a glimpse of herself in the mirror. She suddenly adjusted her standing posture, combed her hair, and turned over and over to study her appearance.
"What are you doing in the middle of the night?"
Adele, who had been awake and hiding under the quilt watching the show, poked her head out and asked Sonia curiously.
Sonia looked at Adele, thought for a moment and asked, "Am I a pure, cute and beautiful girl with a good figure?"
Adele blinked, "Forget it, but it's still a little worse than me."
She stretched out her hand and made a "little bit" gesture, indicating that the gap was really not that big.
Broken Lake Prison.
Ash suddenly turned over and rolled off the bed. The cold ground seemed to touch his panicked soul, slightly alleviating the excitement after his escape.
When he stood up from the ground, he found that he was soaked through, so he went to the bathroom to take a hot bath. Although ordinary dormitories do not have bathtubs, hot water is available around the clock, but failure to provide hot water would be regarded as abuse by human rights organizations.
Leaning against the white tiles and letting the water splash on his body, Ash opened the light curtain and sorted out what he had gained tonight.
Yes, tonight was rewarding. Although in the eyes of others, 'Expelling the Secret Poison' may be a pure burden, in the "Aurora's Magician's Manual", 'Expelling the Secret Poison' has undergone a new change.
"You are infected with the 'Expulsion Secret Poison'."
"'Expelling the Secret Poison' strengthens the Doomsday Viewer's ability to sense biological knowledge in the virtual realm, and the map of the virtual realm has undergone new changes."
"Note: The virtual map has been updated. Now you can discover knowledge creatures within the observation range on the virtual map and obtain brief information."
When he was in the virtual realm just now, Ash opened the map and found that the 24 surrounding grids had undergone some changes. Most of them are still "wasted effort" and "not worth mentioning", but a few grids have revealed more information:
"Mistfish Dragon, worth a visit"
"Ichthyosaurus, it's a little troublesome."
"Umbrella Bird Dragon, there's a little trouble."
Although it only appears the name of the intellectual creature, it is a huge breakthrough for the exploration of the virtual realm!
Before this, Ash could only roughly judge whether the area was a heritage island or a habitat for knowledge creatures through map prompts. Generally speaking, most of the islands that are "worth visiting" are heritage islands, and those that are "a bit troublesome" are basically knowledge creatures. Although the judgment may occasionally be inaccurate, it is better than wandering around blindly.
Now that the areas inhabited by knowledge creatures have been marked, the other areas that have not been marked but where battles will occur are naturally the inheritance islands!
Not only that, although Ash has never learned about knowledge creatures, Sword Princess has read the "Illustrated Book of Knowledge Creatures". She can judge the faction that the corresponding monster is good at, its approximate combat power and even its specific weaknesses by its name, and specializes in bullying those who can be restrained by them. A creature of knowledge!
In order to cultivate Sword Queen's swordsmanship realm, you can specifically hunt for knowledge creatures that will drop swordsmanship orbs, such as 'Fish-Slaying Dragon' and 'Umbrella Bird Dragon', which can feed Sword Queen's swordsmanship realm to gold level and help her advance. Two wings of gold!
As long as Sword Princess reaches the Time Continent, Yaxiu can naturally repeat his old trick and use Sword Princess as a shortcut to sneak into the Time Continent.
Just like becoming a silver magician in the Sea of Knowledge, Yaxiu can also advance to a gold magician in the Time Continent, even if he does not have a magic school to reach the gold level, and he has not even practiced for a day, all by holding Sword Princess If I tell you about the soaring thighs, I'm afraid it will make other magicians furious.
With Ash's exploration ability and Sword Queen's knowledge, as long as they don't deliberately trigger taboos to commit suicide like just now, then the next exploration of the sea of knowledge will be smooth sailing and there will be no danger!
But the premise of all this is that Ashus must survive, leave this prison, and gain freedom.
Turn off the shower above your head, wrap yourself in a towel, and walk to the sink. Ash looked at his wet self in the mirror. The liquid dripped along the tips of his hair onto his thin shoulders and slid down his collarbone.
"Oops, I'm starting to like this world a little bit."
His face tilted upward and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly: "Today is also a day full of hope."
