Chapter 497 Return Immediately (Ask for Monthly Tickets at the Beginning of the Month!)
The dull sound of "boom" exploded on the dome of the Pure Land World!
Tiewu, who was working hard, was startled by the muffled sound.
He stepped on the shovel and looked in the direction of the sound.
"What the hell???"
A 100-meter-long snake raised its body high and covered the sky and the sun.
This scene would be extremely shocking to anyone who saw it.
Is this the pet that Lord God brought back? ? ?
Is this something that humans can tame? ?
What did you eat growing up? !
The next moment, Tie Wu's eyes met the big snake, and he saw the indifferent eyes in those golden eyes... The mental pressure alone made his soul tremble uncontrollably.
That big snake, I'm afraid I'm no match for him at his peak!
"My king..."
The big snake said coldly: "There is a bedbug with impure spirit in the Pure Land. Do you need me to help you crush him to death?"
The spirit is not pure...
This should be said that Tie Wu once believed in "Bacchus" and was instilled by the power of Bacchus. His soul was indeed impure. Even if he believed in himself now, he still could not wash away the mark of Bacchus deep in his soul.
"No need."
Gu Shen smiled lightly and said, "He is now my believer and a tree planter in the Pure Land."
"My king is indeed broad-minded."
Orochi's eyes when looking at Tie Wu were still cold, but the voice coming from the mental wave became softer: "In this world, his soul will definitely be fully purified."
This spiritual message did not shy away from Iron Five.
The serpent's voice buzzed like thunder, exploding in the clouds on the dome.
Tiewu's scalp went numb when he heard it.
The main reason is that this thing is too oppressive... Fortunately, Mr. Goddess stopped it for me.
"Lord God...is this your pet?"
Tie Wu looked pale and carefully transmitted the message.
"yes."
Gu Shen smiled and patted the big snake on the head and said, "Jin Sui Hua, how about this name..."
God's name-making skills...seem to be a bit bad.
Tie Wu cursed secretly, but his expression remained unchanged. He was overjoyed and clapped his hands and said, "Wonderful! Wonderful!"
Wonderful?
A trace of resentment and complex color flashed across the golden pupils of the big snake.
Golden Spike Flower... Although the meaning of this name is very good, it is really not impressive when pronounced.
Especially Gu Shen's last nickname.
"From now on, I'll call you Ah Hua."
Ahua? !
Is there any mistake? It's a majestic 100-meter-long snake!
During the battle, if one declares one's family status...does one have to declare oneself as Golden Spike Flower, also known as Spike Flower, or Ahua, under the throne of Pluto?
The glow of the pure land slowly dissipated.
The icy wind howled.
Gu Shen returned to the maze with the big snake.
He took out a sawdust and said seriously: "There is one thing that is very important. Do you still remember... this sawdust?"
The only reward from Hong Zhong's homecoming mission, and the token of his testimony, was this sawdust.
[Deep Sea] It is impossible to determine the true ownership of this sawdust.
But Gu Shen picked up this sawdust again... He felt the teacher's aura!
This is important!
The sawdust was scattered in the serpent's dream...
Could it be said that Teacher and the others have been here before?
"This sawdust..."
The big snake's pupils narrowed and shrank instantly.
The scales on its body were trembling, and its tone became solemn: "Of course I remember, there are three travelers who passed by here... There are two extraordinary people who are very strong and are not easy to provoke because they have not really stepped into the maze. Because of this, I didn’t force the dream state on them.”
Three travelers!
There are also two extremely powerful extraordinary beings...the teacher, and the senior sister!
Gu Shen locked the true identities of these three people in an instant. His induction was correct. The teacher really appeared here... but the next moment he couldn't figure it out again.
The three of them originally left from the super-large disaster in [Phiyue City Fortress]...
How did you get here?
The direction directly north of Gubao and Piyue City are thousands of miles apart, so it can be said that there is no connection at all.
"Wait a minute..."
Gu Shen recalled what Orochi said, and he captured a very important point, "Did you just say that they didn't really enter the maze, they just passed by?"
"That's right..."
The big snake nodded slowly.
It saw Gu Shen's confusion and explained: "My king, I'm afraid you don't understand this land... Due to the existence of a large number of order collapse points, the space will be distorted from time to time. Some places may not be far apart in a straight line, but in reality But they are separated by a natural chasm. In the same way, two locations thousands of miles apart can be easily reached by just walking through a path of order collapse."
[Old World], order collapsed and rules were shattered.
Here, anything can happen!
"So, what is the end of this maze?"
Gu Shen looked at the big snake.
Those explorers who were on a mission to leave the fortress were considered to be the lucky few who could reach here. They saw the "oasis" at the end of the maze.
But the so-called oasis is just a dream.
"Report back to my king..."
The voice of the big snake sounded sarcastic and mocking.
It moved its huge body, changed into a comfortable lying position, and said lazily: "There is nothing at the end of the maze."
Gu Shen was silent.
"After all these years, I don't know why...there are so many explorers coming to decipher the secrets of this collapsed snow mountain."
"Haven't they ever thought that not every maze has an exit?"
"Here, there is only an entrance and no exit...Rather than a 'maze', I prefer to call it a 'nest'."
The snake thought for a long time and used such a wording. The fire gave it unprecedented wisdom. The soul fire it had absorbed over the years also allowed it to peek into some memory fragments in the warm world of the south.
"The only meaning here is to witness my reunion with you."
Gu Shen fell into silence again.
He stretched out his palm and touched the cold rock.
So... Teacher and the others, walking outside the maze is actually due to the effect of "regular points". They seem to be very close, but in fact they are very far away... And those falling wood chips are due to chance. He was pulled into the dreamland by the snake's domain.
Well...that's the only explanation I can get at the moment.
It seems that it is not feasible to find traces of the teacher through the maze.
"By the way...there's one more thing."
Gu Shen asked again: "Do you still have any impressions about the explorers who arrived in the maze last time?"
Orochi nodded honestly.
Its mental power is very strong, and it can weave such a real dream. It can even deceive the seismic sensing equipment, and its memory is naturally excellent. What happened every day in the past twenty-one years has been stored in his mind. middle.
"I want to know what happened during the last exploration, and how these people... died."
Gu Shen spoke solemnly.
The words fell.
The wind and snow around him quickly flowed backwards, and the dream world changed at this moment.
A familiar voice sounded behind him.
["The thirty-eighth route exploration, the seventeenth time... There is no problem so far, the source energy fuel should be replaced."]
Gu Shen turned around.
He saw a team of six.
The person leading the team and giving orders at this moment is none other than the team leader "Hong Zhong".
["All members replaced source energy fuel and prepared to return."]
This team reached the "end point" they originally arrived at, and then... there was a sensing error in the source material instrument, and everyone realized that their retreat was cut off.
Gu Shen was like a non-existent shadow, standing quietly in the gap between the cracks in time and space, watching the follow-up progress of this exploration mission...
The scene reappears.
This team is more united than I expected.
Everyone decided to move on... Up to this point, everything was normal, but then they would step into the dream of "Golden Spike Flower". With the strength of this team, this was an unsolvable dream.
Why did Hong Zhong escape?
In the dream, these people saw the "oasis" and the non-existent hope at the end of the maze...
And when Golden Spike Flower is ready to "take away" their spirits.
Hong Zhong suddenly woke up from his dream!
He was alone and broke away from this dream... then he took action without hesitation, chopped Lao Yao's Source Armor to pieces, pulled out the Source Energy Fuel Core, and then quickly escaped from the maze.
He did all this smoothly after returning to reality.
It was as if someone was guiding me.
The rest of the memory is not important.
Jin Suihua saw that Gu Shen just wanted to know the details of this man's escape... It fixed the reflection of this mental image at this moment, and said quietly: "There is a very strange 'sealed object' on that man's body. He seems to have the incredible power of guiding destiny. His spirit almost sank, but he suddenly woke up at the critical moment. At the critical moment, he found the only correct way to escape."
Gu Shen narrowed his eyes.
It is said that Hong Zhong is an extremely lucky veteran in the Survey Corps. Every mission he went on, he returned safely...
This guy's luck is indeed incredible!
Even if you encounter a disaster-level dream like "Golden Spike Flower", you can still escape.
Obviously, this is no longer what he is capable of.
This guy must have some amazing sealed artifact on his body...perhaps it was obtained from an exploration mission in the [Old World].
Gu Shen stretched out his finger and moved it slowly.
Jinsuihua's dream flowed as he pleased, returning to the moment when Hong Zhong woke up.
He tried to find the whereabouts of the sealed object in his dream.
But it's a pity.
Can't find it... Hong Zhong was wearing the Source Armor, and there was no sign of using the sealed object. The entire awakening process was spontaneous.
That was probably a passive defense sealed artifact.
Actively activate when the owner encounters disaster.
"However, that guy will definitely die."
Jin Shenghua said coldly: "His spirit has been corrupted by me... It won't be long before he will die in despair and eternal silence. Not only that, this corrosive power will also spread. If you don't want to be in this maze After returning, you can also look for his spiritual imprint, and you can extract a lot of souls. The Pure Land is too empty now, and we just need manpower."
"???"
Gu Shen's expression changed instantly: "What did you just say? Will your corrosive power... still spread?"
Golden Spike nodded.
"Don't you want to form an army in the Pure Land?" The big snake hissed and said regretfully: "I have been working hard for your coronation these years... but there are too few people who have arrived here. "
Gu Shen was speechless.
He never expected that what this big snake did would be so crazy... I am afraid that when Hades threw him out, he was already close to madness.
How crazy is it to pull the souls of living people into the Pure Land and form an army? !
"Don't do this kind of thing again."
Gu Shen frowned and immediately issued an order, "My pure land has other ways to expand. There is no need to use this method to extract the soul. This method will bring me a lot of trouble... From now on, You can no longer take the initiative to attack and kill humans."
Jin Suihua's pupils were blank, and she nodded subconsciously, remembering this order.
Although its soul has grown for twenty-one years, it is almost a blank sheet of paper.
The only guidance he got was the remaining will of Pluto's fire.
It has no concept of good and evil.
As for life and death, it was born in the pure land of Hades, and it doesn't care about the "life and death" of these ants.
Gu Shen finally knew why he ended up in such a miserable end when he took office as Pluto...
If there really are "fate" rules operating in this world.
So what the previous Pluto did was just the tip of the iceberg that he knew, and it was enough to cause a lot of evil!
"Do you know what the consequences of that corrosive power will be..."
Gu Shen looked ugly and scolded in a low voice.
The big snake lowered his head, looking aggrieved.
"That wisp of corrosive power is actually not very powerful... it will only spread within the spiritual sea." Golden Spike Flower defended in a low voice: "As long as the spiritual power is strong enough, it will be enough to resist. No matter how hard it is, your great power will be enough to untie it." .”
Gu Shen's expression was complicated.
The spiritual power of this big snake is terrifyingly powerful!
Even Yuan Yuan couldn't see through the dream it weaved.
And the corrosive power left behind...even if it is only a weak ray, there are very few people who can resist it.
He knew that Golden Spike Flower grew up to what it is today, all because of the guidance of the previous Pluto... The only thing this ignorant creature could rely on after birth was the remaining spirit of Pluto's fire.
That ray of spirit was extremely evil.
What is instilled in Golden Spike Flower is also about hunting and devouring.
Over the years, only "Hong Zhong" managed to escape by chance, while Golden Harvest Flower left behind the corrosive power only out of the hunting instinct of a hunter at the top of the food chain.
However, the current situation is very bad.
Anyone who has been in contact with Hong Zhong is likely to encounter Golden Spike Flower's "spiritual corrosion"... Doesn't this mean that if it is not handled properly, there will be a spiritual virus sweeping through the Gubao Fortress?
No...even worse!
The Second Team of the Survey Corps strongly requested that Hong Zhong be brought back to the interior... Once agreed, the spread would become uncontrollable!
It’s time to leave for the return journey immediately!
Gu Shen could only pray that Azur and Lin Lin could detect the corrosive virus in Hong Zhong's spiritual sea in advance, or at least firmly refuse the investigation corps' request to take back the "hero".
