Chapter 235 Red Rose
"Ahem, how is it possible?"
"They are just ordinary people."
On the beach, under the statue of the dark giant, a great battle just ended.
The Executioner Squad, which was originally fully armed, had now been stripped of their armor.
Not only did the 13th team only have 6 people left, but the remaining ones became prisoners and were trampled under the feet of Albert's men.
"Why?"
"Albert, what did you do?"
The captain of the Executioner Squad vomited blood and looked at the fallen scholar who was still sitting on the coffin in disbelief.
They were defeated by 7 ordinary people before they even got close to the main person.
But how is this possible?
They are just ordinary people, but they can use superpowers, and they are extremely terrifying.
How did Albert do it?
······
"Haha, is it unbelievable?"
"To be honest, I was also surprised when I first discovered that these ordinary people had awakened their superpowers."
"But I soon discovered that their use of superpowers is not without cost. Every time they use their abilities, part of their life source will disappear until they are completely carbonized."
Albert stopped eating and pointed to the hundreds of black human-shaped statues behind him.
This is the price ordinary people pay for suddenly having superpowers.
"When I saw the appearance of these carbonized human-shaped statues, I knew the source of their abilities."
"Before you arrived, everyone in this camp had been parasitized by a unique archaea."
"Except for me, no one can see the true face of the archaea."
"But I didn't expect that the real function of the archaea is to allow humans to release the power of [roots] at will."
"Ordinary people just don't have spiritual awakening, not spirituality. As long as they can release the power of [roots] and directly interfere with the real world, why can't they have superpowers?"
Albert looked down at the Walker Squad with a victorious attitude.
Isn't fate very strange? In the end, it was me, a prisoner, who got everything.
The appearance of archaea is the greatest gift of fate to him.
······
"Impossible, absolutely impossible."
"Even if what you said is true, the so-called archaea that can allow humans to release the power of [roots] really exist."
"But the spiritual frequency of these ordinary people is only 36. Even if their [roots] are fully released, they can't defeat us."
"The strength of each of us is not weaker than that of the controllers of three spiritual sublimations. This gap is definitely not something that ordinary people can cross by suddenly gaining power."
The captain of the executioner team looked at the gorgeous coffin under Albert. Could that be the source of all the archaea?
But why is the coffin empty now?
······
"Hahaha!"
"You are right, absolutely right. The power of ordinary people certainly cannot defeat you."
"But do you know? Don't look at these archaea that can reproduce, divide, and parasitize billions of lives indefinitely."
"But they are still the same life form in essence."
"So, it is never ordinary people who defeat you, but me, Albert."
"I lent my power to the seven people in front of me through archaea."
"Does it feel unbelievable? After all, we scholars cannot obtain any extraordinary power!"
"My spiritual frequency is only 36, but after I lend the power of [Root] to ordinary people, they can easily defeat you."
"Why is that?"
Albert looked at the executioners with sarcasm.
These guys are responsible for scholar affairs within the Sword of Judgment. It would be a joke to say that they don't know some secrets of scholars.
······
"You, you, you know?"
"You are indeed corrupted, you should have been executed on the spot before."
"What a pity, hateful!"
The captain of the team looked at Albert in horror, as if the guy standing in front of him was no longer a human, but some extremely terrifying monster.
"Hmph, what bullshit advanced genes, what bullshit legend of the Celestial Dragons?"
"It's not your traitor hidden in the Skull and Bones Society who made it up to fool us."
"Playing the long game, fishing for big fish, planting undercovers in evil organizations, even raising tigers to cause trouble, secretly controlling non-human organizations, isn't this what you Sword of Judgment are best at!"
"The reason why I was exposed and arrested this time is because I was betrayed by the Skull and Bones Society?"
When it comes to the Skull and Bones Society, Albert gnashed his teeth in hatred.
Whenever scholars try to gain extraordinary powers, these guys always appear at the right time.
They always provide scholars with some strange secret methods and let them cooperate in some inexplicable experiments.
Then it was a complete betrayal, when the scholars were about to "succeed", they were sold to the Sword of Judgment.
Albert was tricked in this way.
It can be said that what Albert hates most now, besides the Sword of Judgment, is those guys.
When he leaves Shengxian Island, he will definitely make these bastards pay the price.
······
"The reason why our scholars cannot awaken spiritually and master extraordinary power."
"The root cause is that our [roots] are too strong, or our [roots] are too high in nature."
"The weak body of human beings cannot provide enough nutrition for the [roots] to awaken."
"That's why we instinctively devour and absorb any external spiritual power."
"Our roots are like ancient trees rooted in the desert, greedily craving for all water."
"As long as there is enough nutrition, the tree will eventually grow and our roots will awaken."
"At that time, we will naturally awaken extraordinary powers."
"Human identity is nothing more than a shackle to us, a cage that imprisons us."
"Only by removing this shell can we find our true self."
"Our roots are different from yours, our roots are higher than yours. This can only mean that we are not human at all."
Albert's eyes flashed with a hint of fanaticism, and he felt that he had finally found the meaning of life.
However, in the face of his remarks, the captain of the executioner team showed disdain.
······
"Fools, you are obviously human, but you insist on turning yourself into monsters."
"It is obvious that the identity of human beings is a kind of protection for you, but you insist on treating it as a shackle."
"Wouldn't it be better to spend your life quietly without pursuing extraordinary powers?"
"Humph, when you dream of pursuing extraordinary powers, your roots have been polluted by those external forces."
"How ridiculous and pathetic is your so-called pursuit of self and taking off your human identity."
"Being able to have wisdom and live as an intelligent life is already your greatest blessing."
"I have seen many guys like you, and only death is your best destination."
"The death I am talking about is the kind that completely wipes you out."
"Let's die together!"
The captain of the executioner team showed a cruel smile on his face, and the next moment, billions of red lights bloomed on his body, and he actually exploded.
······
"Damn, the Sword of Judgment is really a bunch of lunatics."
The reason why Albert didn't kill this guy was that he planned to parasitize it with archaea to achieve control.
In fact, although he now feels that he has discovered the truth, many questions in his heart are still unanswered.
For example, why did the Skull and Bones Society fabricate rumors about the Celestial Dragons and advanced genes?
For example, how did their scholars come into being? When did they first appear?
The Sword of Judgment must know the answer to all this.
Although Albert had heard that the people of the Sword of Judgment were a bunch of lunatics, he had never really seen it until this moment.
These guys had actually prepared a means to die with the enemy and perish together.
But this is far from enough to kill himself.
······
Everything was silent wherever the red light passed.
Whether it was the hundreds of carbonized human statues standing or the tall body of the dark giant, there was no damage.
It can even be said that wherever the red light passed, even the dust in the air was not disturbed.
But compared to the intact non-living things, the lives within 30 kilometers around were devastated.
Wherever the red light passed, the spirituality was annihilated and the lives were completely melted.
Obviously, the self-destruction means prepared by the execution squad were aimed at the scholars and the monsters that the scholars turned into after their physical bodies died.
······
"What is that?"
At the moment when the red light burst out, a blood-red rose appeared in the sky.
Within a radius of 200 kilometers, all lives sensed the terrifying annihilation.
Fortunately, the range of the red light only exists within 30 kilometers, otherwise the number of unlucky people who died due to this wave of self-exposure would definitely be a large number.
"Fuck, what happened in that direction?"
"Is it so lively today?"
"Hey, that direction seems to be the human gathering place where the dark giant is."
"Did the executioners fight with the fallen scholars? Are both sides so powerful?"
Although it was 400 kilometers away, Chen Qi still felt the terrifying destruction with his powerful induction.
He was now extremely glad that he did not wander around the human gathering place. The seemingly safest place was likely to be full of landmines.
If he was unlucky enough to step on it, he would be skinned alive.
His decision was indeed correct. He should pick the softest persimmons. Orcs, who were brainless creatures, were the safest to deal with.
······
The bloody rose lasted only for a moment and then disappeared.
When some curious people arrived at the scene, they could not sense even the slightest radiation.
This self-destruction was really safe, efficient and clean.
"Is this the executioner team?"
"What happened here?"
"Stupid, don't take things randomly. It will be troublesome if you get into trouble."
After the self-destruction, the bodies of the executioner team had completely melted. Only the tin cans discarded on the beach could prove that they had appeared.
But those tin cans also broke into pieces on the ground. Obviously, the executioner's equipment also had a self-destruct system.
There are some fools among the onlookers who are so bold that they even want to take advantage of the situation?
This is really ignorant and fearless.
Fortunately, because the executioner team is searching for fallen scholars everywhere, many onlookers have dealt with them before.
At this time, many onlookers have guessed the truth. Under their persuasion, those greedy guys immediately threw the rags on the spot and ran away in fear.
The terrifying reputation of the Sword of Judgment can be seen from this.
······
"Did the executioner team die together with the fallen scholar Albert?"
The blood-red rose was too eye-catching, and the casualties it caused were too horrible.
Not to mention other life forms, there were dozens of humans who were affected and died.
If the humans in that camp had not died long ago, the casualties caused by this wave of self-explosion would have been even greater.
It took only one day for the news to reach Colonel Velos.
After hearing the news, he was stunned.
But then came a sense of relief.
It's good to die together, at least it won't cause trouble to everyone.
The Ascension Island is so strange, if there are fewer unexpected factors, it will be a blessing for everyone.
Since the communication equipment of the Sea Kite has been repaired, the candidates have restored contact with each other through the jade talisman.
So the news that the executioner team and the fallen scholar died together also quickly reached Chen Qi.
After hearing this news, Chen Qi became more motivated to kill orcs.
As expected, people should be kind.
······
A few days passed in a flash, and the candidates' tasks were not going well.
No one found the information about Changshou Village or the three little girls.
It would be fine if it was the former, after all, everyone was very cautious about the strategy of the laboratory.
So far, only 4 laboratories have been swept.
In addition to harvesting some messy things, it can be said that there was nothing to gain.
Compared with the small number of people who attacked the laboratory, the number of candidates searching for the three little girls was more.
Among that batch of candidates, there were not only those who appeared on the Sea Kite before, but also those who were responsible for rescuing ordinary people on the spot.
After all, the three little girls had a close relationship with the true disciples.
Isn't this a good opportunity to hug thighs?
But what is extremely strange is that they searched all human gathering places and still did not find the three little girls.
In this way, either the three little girls have died.
Or they are lost in the depths of the dense forest.
According to the accurate news from Senior Caroline, the three little girls must still be alive, so let everyone continue searching.
Of course, none of the above things have anything to do with Chen Qi.
He just paid attention to it casually when he was free from brushing the orcs.
In the past few days, he has brushed 3,000 points.
The orcs are unlucky to meet him.
Chen Qi naturally used these 3,000 points for the lottery.
Although he didn't draw any particularly valuable knowledge, he barely increased his spirituality by two points.
In this way, as long as he works hard for another 10 days or half a month, Chen Qi can awaken his spirituality for the second time.
Chen Qi even chose the spiritual object for the next time.
It was the two sunflower seeds in his hand.
·······
The spiritual object required for the second sublimation of the spiritual sublimation secret method of the Tianwu Spell Academy is a plant.
Chen Qi's two sunflower seeds with a life index of up to 10 points can come in handy.
In fact, if Shengxian Island was not too weird, Chen Qi really wanted to find a more powerful ancient tree to communicate with.
For example, the sacred tree that gave birth to the Grass Returning Pill mentioned by Senior Sister Feng.
And it was precisely because he knew the existence of that sacred tree that Chen Qi did not dare to use the plants of Shengxian Island for spiritual communication.
It is better to be cautious.
······
The pleasant monster-killing activity continued. Perhaps because of the heavy losses on the night of the blood moon, the orcs Chen Qi encountered were not too strong.
Even if the situation was very good, Chen Qi still did not dare to take it lightly.
He always implemented his policy of picking the weak persimmons.
If you can't kill an orc with one blow, try to walk around it.
As Chen Qi optimized and adjusted his own spells, his spells became more and more powerful.
Recently, it is rare to encounter orcs who can withstand his one move without dying.
However, if you walk too much at night, you will eventually see ghosts.
If you often walk by the river, how can you not get your shoes wet?
Just today, after Chen Qi used a big sword, the big frog in front of him, which was more than 100 meters tall, survived.
······
"Ahem, this big frog brother. Sorry, I'm really sorry."
"Can I say that all this is a misunderstanding?"
"I thought you were an orc. I didn't expect you to be a human!"
Chen Qi, holding a big sword, looked at the middle-aged man who was glaring at him with embarrassment.
But this really can't be blamed on me.
Who would have thought that a human would actually parasitize an orc?
When the big frog stuck out its tongue just now, it really scared Chen Qi.
He thought it was a sign of the other party's death, after all, half of its head was cut off by himself.
But he never expected that there would be a human on the tongue, which was too curious.
Chen Qi really didn't expect that this big frog was not an orc. After all, the blood breath on it was so strong. Chen Qi had killed so many orcs, it was impossible for him not to judge.
But reality is so weird, he seems to have encountered a [transformer].
Chen Qi still knew the word "transformer" from other candidates.
There are similar projects in many abandoned laboratories.
But it seems that none of them have been successful, and no finished products have survived.
However, today, Chen Qi actually won the jackpot.
······
"Sorry, misunderstanding?"
"Haha, do you want to just brush this matter off so lightly?"
"Do you think this is possible?"
"If an apology is useful, why do we have to practice so hard?"
"Why don't I eat you and then say sorry to you, what do you think?"
Li Yuanxiao stared at Chen Qi with anger in his eyes, his eyes almost blazing.
The weather is really good today, he was lazily lying on a boulder to bask in the sun.
Unexpectedly, he almost got his head chopped off while taking a nap.
Luckily, his real body has always been on his tongue, otherwise he would definitely be killed by the guy in front of him.
Sorry, misunderstanding?
If this thing is useful, how many people would he have to apologize to?
It's really unlucky. He has always been the only one who plotted against others, but today he was bullied to the point of being bullied.
It's hard to relieve his hatred if he doesn't skin and rip the bastard in front of him.
"Gulp, gulp!"
Blood bubbles kept coming out of the half-headed frog. What was extremely strange was that the blood bubbles actually condensed together and turned into a mass of gelatinous substance.
The frog, with only half of its head left, survived.
