Starting From Zero

Volume 19 Chapter 171 Hell

After stuffing the elixir, I didn't care about that poor guy at all. I don't need to care about the guy who has degraded to level 180. With my defense, even if I stand there and let him fight for several hours, it may not have any effect, and this In the meantime, the revenge attribute on my body cannot be activated, otherwise if any spell is activated, it will be killed instantly.

After finishing dealing with this guy, I looked up again and looked at the city, which had lost a third. Lucky's destructive power is so strong that a city dominated by wooden buildings cannot withstand his destruction. A single puff of dragon flame can ignite a large area.

Waving my hand to call back luck, I released the Death Guards and Qilin Warriors together, and asked them to search the entire city, kill all the enemies, and move away all the valuable things that could be moved away.

Ashford looked at me with some confusion and asked, "Why are you searching here? I thought you just wanted revenge."

"No, revenge is only one of the purposes. As for the second purpose, maybe you will see it soon." Before I could finish my words, I saw a Qilin warrior running over with a stack of sheepskins.

"Master, I found this in a place that looks like an office."

I took the thing and turned it over under Ashford's puzzled eyes, and then asked: "Is there any more?"

"And this." The Qilin warrior immediately handed over a hollow cylinder made of wood. I easily pulled out a roll of paper made of a very strange material. After unfolding the paper, we immediately discovered It turned out that this thing was a map, and what was drawn on it was clearly an underground building complex.

"Oh, it seems that your plan to explore the ruins has been finalized." I handed the map directly to Ashford and said.

Ashford looked at the map in his hand, and then asked with a little doubt: "How do you know they have this thing?"

"See more, listen more, and think more."

"I still don't understand."

I shook my head helplessly and said: "You said before that the things on the fake map were marked incorrectly. This means that the map was not fabricated out of thin air. At least part of it is correct. So why can they draw it? A map with this kind of error? Apparently, they've seen a real map, or they have a real map."

"Is that why you came to take me to rob?"

"This is just by the way. I mainly want to vent my anger." I said and waved to Ashford and said: "I think with this thing, you won't need me in the next exploration. You first Go and do your mission. I will go back after robbing everything here, and I also have my mission to complete."

After Ashford nodded and said goodbye to me, he took people to do his mission to the ruins. As for the things in the ruins, although I was also very curious, it was Ashford who discovered it after all. He invited me to participate. It's easy to say that it's a bit unreasonable for me to shamelessly insist on going with him. As an ally, the most important thing is to know which interests you can get a share of, and which ones are best left alone, otherwise it will only lead to the collapse of the alliance.

After Ashford left, it only took us about an hour to completely ransack the entire city. This city is very small. If we hadn't been looking for possible secret rooms and the like, we could have completely looted the place in less than half an hour. However, spending so much time was not in vain. The Kirin Warriors and Death Guards found at least thirty secret rooms in the city. A group of crooks, thieves and bandits have built a city in the style of an absolute criminal's dream, full of hidden secret doors and secret rooms. The only pity is that these guys are really poor. After ransacking the entire city, they only found about 10,000 to 20,000 crystal coins. The other items are useless that cannot be taken away or the value is disproportionate to the size.

After evacuating all valuable supplies, before we left, did we ask Ling and Xiaochun to team up to drop a mixed light and dark bomb in the city? Then with a loud noise, the small highland where the city was originally located turned into a It's a small lake. Even if they come back to life, don't expect to build a city here again.

By the time I returned to the Tree of Nature, the other party had already completed the indoctrination. After I took over the World Tree seedling, the Tree of Nature gave me something like a green crystal. Although I don’t know what this thing is for, since it is a reward from the Nature Tree, I can only accept it first. After I bid farewell to the Tree of Nature and returned to Essinger, I saw the properties of this thing through identification.

The thing that Nature Tree gave me is actually a life source. Its purpose is very simple, which is to increase the health value, but it is not used to replenish blood, but to increase the upper limit of life. The piece of life that the Tree of Nature gave me is a highly concentrated source of life, with a content of 200,000 units. That means if I absorb this source of life, my health will increase by 200,000 points. Is two hundred thousand lives worth a lot? Of course there are many. Because my current total health points are only over 370,000, and 200,000 is already more than half a life. Besides, my health value is high because my attributes and levels are very exaggerated. For most balanced players, a health value of more than 50,000 is quite high, even for a mid-to-high-level blood-cow warrior. The health value is generally close to 200,000, and those with more than 200,000 are either world-class masters or the main blood bull warriors raised by big guilds.

The stock of the source of life in my hand is actually as high as 200,000 units, which means that its internal health value is already as high as that of a top blood bull warrior. If a mage got this thing, he would probably be able to fight with ordinary warriors shirtless. Moreover, this source of life has a very lovely advantage, that is, it does not need to be replenished to a person at one time, but can be taken in as needed. My 370,000 health points are just basic attributes. In addition, the equipment on my body has many attributes that increase health points, and my life ball can store vitality. Calculate my limit life. The value may be close to 600,000. Such a high health value means that even if my defense is zero, I can still receive a full blow from most players except the Gunslinger. Therefore, this thing actually doesn't make much sense for me to use. My health points cannot be cut by ordinary people, and once something threatens me, the result may be the same even if I have several times more health points, so it would be too wasteful for me to use this thing.

After thinking about it for a long time, I finally gave it to Rose. Of course, I didn't let Rose use it, but asked her to think about who would be more suitable to use it. After all, there is a mage or priest who has more health points than the Blood Ox Warrior. Sometimes it can produce unexpected effects.

After dealing with the source of life, I began to consider whether to complete the mission of Mother Earth first or to find trouble with the Olympus Protoss first. Speaking of which, I have detained Pandora and the others for a long time, and it is time to go back and check the situation. After thinking about it for a long time, I finally decided that it would be better to complete the mission of Mother Earth first. After all, there was only the last tree left. As for the Olympus Protoss, they are still far away from China anyway. For a while, they didn’t expect that it was us who had done it, so we might as well let them wait for a while.

After deciding on the target, I took out the guidance crystal of the last Soul Tree, but the way this thing was activated was rather strange. The other crystal balls will be activated as long as magic power is injected into them, but this crystal ball cannot be activated without a mental impact. Fortunately, several of my demon pets are capable of mental shock, otherwise I would be in trouble!

After successfully activating the crystal ball, the guiding crystal ball did not immediately fly towards the target location. Instead, it vibrated on the spot. Then, just when I thought there was something wrong with this thing, the crystal ball suddenly coughed loudly. It shot straight into the sky like a missile and flew out of sight in the blink of an eye.

"Damn, didn't you say that the guided crystal ball will not leave a certain range of me? What's going on? Mechanical failure?" As I said this, I summoned a flying bird and quickly jumped up, then pointed at the one that was still jumping up. The crystal ball said: "Catch up."

"Understood." Feiniao directly started all the thrusters and took me straight into the sky in an instant. Although the flying speed of the crystal ball was very fast, it was still incomparable to that of flying birds, and we were soon unable to catch up with it. However, this crystal ball is indeed strange. It has no response to me as the user. It only flies forward without any intention of waiting for me. I don’t know if it is just the guidance crystal like this or not. there is a problem. Because I was afraid that this thing would fly away, and I couldn’t stop activating the Earth Gate and go in to find Mother Earth to ask questions, I had to follow this thing to fly around first.

After the crystal ball left the ground, it kept flying upwards. We chased it and flew to an altitude of 20,000 meters before the guy started to turn to the west and enter the level flight mode. When I saw it turning, I immediately turned around and chased after it. The flying speed of this thing is probably subsonic, which is already very slow for a flying bird, so we can chase it quite easily. But after flying with this thing for half an hour, I finally lost my patience.

"No, I don't know how long it will fly after it flies like this. Looking at its direction, maybe the Soul Tree is in Europe. Bird, speed up and get closer. I will catch it back and use the teleportation array to go to Europe and release it. ."

"clear."

After getting my order, the flying bird immediately accelerated and caught up with the crystal ball. Since this thing didn't know how to dodge at all, it just kept flying forward in a straight line, so we easily caught it again. Although the crystal ball will fly towards its destination on its own, its power is actually not very strong. After grabbing it, you can control it with just a little force.

After catching the crystal ball, I immediately took back the flying bird, then teleported directly back to Essinger and used the transnational teleportation array to transfer to Tianyu City. After I came out of the teleportation array in Tianyu City, I let go of the guidance crystal again. Unexpectedly, as soon as I let go, it immediately jumped up into the sky.

"Damn, why are you going up again?" This time, I was well prepared and immediately jumped on the bird and chased after it. However, the crystal ball did not fly to an altitude of 20,000 meters again, but only rose a few hundred meters. Mi then began to turn and drew a steep arc in the air and flew towards the northwest.

The crystal ball turned and we had no choice but to follow suit. As a result, after the thing turned to level flight, it persisted for less than five minutes and then began to drop. At first, it was still flying at an altitude of one thousand meters, and then it dropped to 800 meters while flying. , flew for another ten seconds and dropped to 500 meters. After continuing to fly for three minutes, the crystal ball suddenly began to slow down. The speed dropped from 300 meters per second to 170 meters per second, although the speed was still not slow. , but it is much slower than before. Obviously my guess was correct, that thing was approaching its destination, otherwise it would have suddenly slowed down for no reason.

After continuing to fly for about ten minutes, the flying height of the thing dropped again to a height of more than 100 meters above the ground. At this height, players on the ground could be clearly seen, and the speed of the thing also dropped to less than one per second. One hundred meters, looking at this state, it is obvious that we are reaching our destination. But why does this road look so familiar to me?

After flying for about two kilometers along the road below us, the crystal ball actually dropped to a height of five meters above the ground, and its speed also slowed down again. Now this speed is slightly faster than the full sprint speed of ordinary players. It was a bit inconvenient to ride a flying bird at such a slow speed, so I simply replaced Yeying and rode Yeying on the ground.

Before, I just thought it looked familiar in the sky, but when I landed on the ground, I recognized it completely. Is this road clearly the one leading to the Dark Temple? Could it be that the Tree of Soul is with Ditans?

Sure enough, the crystal ball took me all the way to the door of the main temple of darkness in Ditans. Then it suddenly pressed down and plunged into the temple door. I saw that it had gone in and I had no choice but to run inside. Okay. The temple staff here all know me, and they didn’t stop me when they saw me running in.

After the crystal ball entered the temple, its speed dropped again. Now its speed is probably about the same as that of an average player running at full speed.

"Eh? Ziri..."

Ditans happened to come out of the temple at this time. When he saw me running in, he wanted to say hello. Unexpectedly, he heard me wave my hand and shouted in the middle of his words: "I have no time now. I will explain to you later."

Under the surprised gaze of Ditans, I rushed directly to the underground temple area behind the Dark Temple, and then under the guidance of the crystal ball, we rushed all the way to a side hall on the side of the underground temple area. If I remember correctly, this seems to be the den of Cerberus!

The ball of light flew all the way into the Cerberus's den without any pause, and then disappeared completely. Although it was strange to enter the kennel, since the guide crystals were all in, I had no choice but to follow them and get in there. Fortunately, although the Cerberus's den is said to be a kennel, it is actually not small, and you don't have to bend down to get in.

When I rushed into the Cerberus' kennel, the time ball had disappeared, and there was only a big hole left in this small den except the door through which I entered. This large hole is located in the center of the Cerberus Breeding Area. It is about thirty meters in diameter. The bottom of the black hole is so dark that I can't see the bottom. But from the air of death emanating from it, I can conclude that this hole is at least connected to a hell even if it does not lead directly to hell. The entrance to hell.

After seeing the hole, I finally understood where the guidance crystal was going. Its destination should be hell. Now that I think about it, I am really stupid. The Tree of Souls naturally grows where there are the most souls, and where in this world are there more souls than in hell?

After figuring out where the crystal ball was going, I immediately jumped into the big hole. Because I wanted to chase the crystal ball, I took back the night shadow and replaced it with the flying bird. After turning on the afterburner, I dived all the way down. I quickly caught up with the crystal ball, and the exit of the big hole was gradually visible in front of me.

When I was about to leave the cave entrance, I put the flying birds away again and replaced them with Ye Ying. As long as I left the cave entrance in front, it would be hell. Although the flying bird is my magic pet, the environment in hell is relatively harsh after all. Except for the native hell species, most creatures will not be too comfortable here, so I finally took back the flying bird and replaced it with Yeying. After all, nightmares are considered demonic creatures, and an environment like hell is like going home to Yeying.

After passing through the hole, the guidance crystal immediately began to turn and fly in one direction, and Yeying quickly followed. After passing through a mountain peak made entirely of corpses, the crystal ball suddenly began to accelerate. Fortunately, we could catch up at this speed, so I didn't change into a flying bird.

Chasing the crystal ball, he flew fiercely again, passing through countless mountains of corpses and seas of blood. I feel that the hell under the Dark Temple is much more disgusting than the hell in my Yama Temple. I don’t know how Ditans usually educates his subordinates. He doesn’t know how to pay attention to environmental sanitation and put away so many corpses. Not only does it look disgusting when piled together, but the smell alone can kill someone.

After continuing to fly for a while, the crystal ball finally began to slow down over a huge forest, and gradually lowered its altitude until it entered the canopy of the trees and began to move forward at a rather slow speed. It seemed that it had really reached the place this time. However, less than five seconds after I followed into the dense forest, I suddenly felt a huge evil force approaching us from the side and behind at an extremely fast speed.

As a semi-hell creature, Ye Ying was also quite aware of this aura. He turned his head away before I could say anything.

"You feel it too?" I asked quietly.

Yeying nodded and said: "It should be an undead beast. It feels like the aura is quite wild. It may be an irrational thing."

"That would be difficult to deal with. Normally undead creatures would be polite to me when they see me, but if they encounter an irrational being, it would be hard to say."

Ye Ying was silent for a while and then said: "Otherwise, let Lucky and the others block that thing and we can leave first. The distance is not far anyway."

I thought for a while and said: "Let's run like this for now. If we can hold on to the place, we will talk about it. If not, let Lucky and the others come out to help block it."

"That's okay." Yeying said, speeding up a little and getting closer to the crystal ball, but the aura behind us quickly picked up the speed after we accelerated, and soon it was beside us. The rear has become abreast of us, and it is still running closer to us.

As the distance between the two parties approached, we soon felt the breath approaching about 20 meters away. However, because the trees here were extremely dense, we couldn't see where the thing was at all. We could only hear the sound caused by it hitting the branches. The sound of rustling leaves shaking. However, just after we ran in this state for a few minutes, the guy suddenly approached us again.

"Attention, it's coming."

While we were running at high speed, a big tree on the side was suddenly broken with a click. Yeying jumped up and passed the tree, but then he saw a huge tyrannosaurus-like creature. From the gap where the big tree fell, we rushed into the area where we were, which could barely be regarded as a forest road.

Contrary to our expectations, the creature in front of us was not coming towards us. Because when he suddenly discovered us, he seemed more surprised than us. He actually forgot to turn and bumped into a big tree on the opposite side. As a result, the whole big tree was knocked away, but he was only tilted. After a moment, he was not knocked over, which shows that his power is absolutely terrifying.

Although this guy is obviously not coming for us, we have to be careful about this guy. After all, this thing's appearance is really not safe. That guy obviously had similar thoughts to us. Of course, he didn't judge by his appearance, but by his breath. It was okay for Ye Ying to have a lighter aura, but the strong evil aura on my body made him realize that I was a more terrifying existence than him, so he just glanced at us and ran forward quickly.

We relaxed a little as we watched the thing gradually run away, but just after we ran two steps, a knight riding a black horse suddenly jumped out of the jungle in front of us. This knight's whole body is completely black. The light in this place in Hell is very dark, and it is even darker here in a dense forest. This guy's black body almost blends into the background. If it weren't for I have dark vision and it's probably not easy to spot him.

Because the guy rushed out of the forest in front of us, he didn't notice us. Instead, he held a long sword at an angle and chased the tyrannosaurus-like monster.

Only now did I finally figure out that the monster was not chasing us, but running away. As for the reason for his running away... it was obviously the knight, or him and his friends.

Yes, there is more than one person. Just after the knight appeared, a large group of people suddenly jumped out one after another nearby. These guys were equipped with all kinds of equipment, and some of them even had light professions. There is only one possibility for seeing a light-type profession in a place like hell, and that is that the opponent is a player, because even if a light-type NPC has the strength, they will never run to hell for no reason. This is just like a normal person who would never run to the toilet unless necessary. It's not that he can't go, but that he doesn't want to stay there. Therefore, it goes without saying that these people must all be players.

After the other party rushed out, he also noticed my presence. The person who saw me first was so frightened that he almost fell off his horse. Fortunately, his mount was more powerful. When he realized that something was wrong, he turned around and used centrifugal force to hit me. He was thrown back to his position.

After sitting down again, the guy immediately reacted and put his hand to his mouth and whistled. The crowd in front turned to look at him, and then noticed me following them.

After discovering me, the other party was obviously a little confused. Some people began to speed up and run forward to distance themselves from me, while others had a vague intention of forming an encirclement formation in front of me.

Although I don't want to conflict with these people, the opponent's speed is gradually slowing down, and I don't want to lose the crystal ball, so I can only speed up. When the other party saw me approaching, they didn't communicate with me first, but took the initiative to attack. One of the mages started throwing exploding light balls at me from seven or eight meters away. As a result, Ye Ying suddenly disappeared with me in a flash. We stopped where we were, and the next second we appeared directly next to that guy.

"I don't want to fight you, it's best not to mess with me."

Originally, I thought that the other party would give up the attack after I expressed my intention, but who knew that the guy turned around and shot a lightning blast at me. If it weren't for Yeying's ability to travel through dreams, we would have been hit again.

Since the other party has made it clear that they don't want to be nice, I have no choice but to accept the challenge. With a pinch of Yeying's belly, Yeying immediately disappeared in place with a knowing movement, and then the next second we suddenly appeared from behind a guy on the edge of the team. Ye Ying opened up her speed and took me past the guy at lightning speed, taking away the guy's head at the same time.

The headless corpse continued to sit on the mount for a while before leaning to one side and falling off the mount. Ye Ying and I had already stabbed the second unfortunate guy through with our swords.

"Bastard!" Seeing that the team lost two combatants in a row, the black knight in front of the team who was chasing the monster suddenly pulled his horse's head and rushed back.

"Yeying, over there." I pointed at the priest sister in the team, and the whole team immediately became nervous. The black knight also quickly rushed towards the nurse sister, hoping to save her life. Fighting in a harsh environment like hell, if there is no priest, the team will soon be forced to leave, so the opponent is very nervous about their priest. However, just as the other party rushed to the Priest mm, they suddenly heard two screams coming from the side of the team. Only when others noticed did they realize that the two mages in the team who were the main damage output personnel had actually been killed at the same time. Fall off the horse. Looking at the body still rolling on the ground, the black knight roared angrily and drove his mount towards me, but unfortunately, he found that I disappeared again before he got close.

"Coward, you have the guts..." The knight only said half of his words before he couldn't shout anymore, because a sword tip suddenly appeared in his heart.

"Even if I am a coward, I will not be afraid of an ant like you, so please put away your arrogance in front of me. By the way, don't think that I can't kill you because you are an undead knight. My sword is specially designed to break Damn it." Following my words, the guy suddenly screamed, and his whole body suddenly collapsed as if falling apart, even the armor on the horse he stepped off was no exception. After the armors fell to the ground, everyone discovered that the armors were actually empty. There were no human bodies and no horses. From beginning to end, there was just a humanoid armor and a set of horse armors, with no body inside at all.

"The president is actually a ghost knight among the undead knights?" One of the team members said in surprise. It was obviously the first time for them to know the news.

I didn't bother to look at the reaction of the team members. I threw the breastplate on the sword from the eternity, and I drove Yeying to accelerate away from the team that had stopped completely. My current goal is the guidance crystal, not that group of people. If I lose the guidance crystal because of my love for war, it will be a loss more than the gain.

After breaking away from the team, I quickly caught up with the tyrannosaurus-like monster. The opponent's speed also slowed down obviously. It was obvious that I had discovered that the person chasing him was no longer there. I was still running just to pull him away. Just keep your distance, otherwise he would have stopped long ago.

When he saw me catching up, the guy immediately moved to the side of the forest road and walked as close to the trees as possible, leaving most of the road for me. Obviously Yeying's previous guess was not correct. Although this guy's aura is very violent, his brain is not stupid. At least he knows that I am not easy to mess with and will take the initiative to give in.

After passing by the dragon, we accelerated and chased forward. The crystal ball had already thrown us a long way away. There were many obstacles in the dense forest. In order not to lose us, it was best to follow closely.

After chasing the guidance crystal for about twenty minutes, the tyrannosaurus-like creature had completely disappeared among the trees, and I finally saw my destination this time.

The dense woods seemed to have been artificially restored, and a large, regular circular blank area appeared. However, although there were no trees in this area, it was not really blank, because there was a huge empty space of hundreds of thousands of square meters. The ground was densely packed with white ghosts. Some of these ghosts still maintain their appearance in life, and some have simply turned into a white mist that is almost invisible. However, no matter what kind of ghost they are, they are all doing the same thing. One thing, that's eating.

That's right. These ghosts are eating, and their food is the other ghosts around them. It's hard to describe what it's like to have dozens or millions of humanoid objects eating each other together. If this wasn't a feast of ghosts, the sound of eating alone would probably make people completely collapse. However, although this scene was more terrifying than Shura Hell, it had no impact on me.

Seeing those ghosts frantically biting and devouring their own kind, I was just stunned for a moment, and then returned to normal. After getting off Ye Ying and taking back Ye Ying, I walked alone into the area filled with ghosts. Almost as soon as I stepped into this area, the ghosts closest to me rushed towards me immediately, but just when they were about to touch me, a blazing ball of fire suddenly appeared on my body. The flames of hell, the ghosts threw themselves directly into the flames of hell because they could not dodge. Then, like paper rolls thrown into the fire, the ghosts were all ignited in an instant, and then fled screaming. around me.

When they saw those flaming ghosts coming out, the other ghosts did not pounce on them and bite them like before, but uncharacteristically tried their best to stay away from them. Even some ghosts that were eating the same kind of ghosts were so frightened that they threw away the food in their mouths and turned around. run.

The Hell Cracking Flame is a negative energy flame. Just like the general flame burning requires energy, the burning of negative energy flames also consumes negative energy, and the soul happens to belong to the category of negative energy, so for the Hell Cracking Flame, these Ghosts are all - fuel.

Despite their low intelligence, these ghosts still retain some instincts. After learning from the past, other ghosts no longer dared to approach me. Instead, they automatically gave way to an area from a long distance away. Even if some ghosts were Even if I squeeze into this area, I will squeeze back again. Even if they are eaten by other ghosts, they will never set foot in this area around me. Even after I extinguished all the Hell Flames on my body, these guys still kept this distance and did not dare to come near me again.

I was just happy and relaxed about the ghosts' cooperative attitude, and strode directly to the center of the open space. There, a huge blue tree was slowly swaying its branches and leaves, as if it was blowing in the wind. The swing is average. But this is hell, and wind is almost non-existent here. The wind on the ground is caused by air convection caused by different light intensities. There is no sun at all in hell, so there is no wind here.

"Hello, I am……"

When I walked under the big tree, I was about to introduce my origins, but I didn't expect that the other party spoke first. "I know, you must be the messenger of Mother Earth. It's almost time. Give me the sapling of the World Tree."

I quickly handed over the seedling, and the Soul Tree immediately stretched out a vine and rolled the seedling over. After completely connecting the right side with several of its own vines, the ghost tree said to me again: "There is already information about several other world trees in it. It seems that I am the last one. You have run away so much. Time, you should know that indoctrination takes time. It will take about an hour from me, you can go around by yourself and come back in an hour."

"Okay. But I'm not familiar with this place. Are there any interesting places nearby that I can go shopping?"

"Interesting?" The Soul Tree obviously didn't expect me to ask such a question. After all, hell is a place that really has nothing to do with entertainment. It's like someone asking the doctor what's delicious in the pharmacy. Although logically It's not entirely wrong, but normal people would never do this. Most people would only find this place super scary when they go to hell, and would like to leave as soon as possible, but I asked what is fun here, and it was an abnormal question. No wonder the tree of souls was surprised. But after all, the other party is a local creature here. After being stunned for a while, he returned to normal and introduced me: "There is really no interesting place, but I do have a very interesting neighbor. If you are not afraid of being chewed into pieces, The bones are old enough to go and look at.”

"There are so many guys who want to eat me, but unfortunately none of them have good teeth and can bite me, and your neighbor is probably the same. But then again, what kind of creature is your neighbor?"
