Chapter 515 An Ancient Scholar (Part 2)

"I can not."

Um?

Lei Luo looked puzzled, waiting for the other party's answer.

"follow me."

The antlered ice staff in the old man's hand dispersed and he walked further into the cave again.

Lei Luo followed behind in a rather depressed mood.

Lei Luo couldn't help but look sideways at the increasing number of specimens of higher organisms along the way, but when he thought about the other party's identity, these specimens were not surprising.

The birth of a pioneer who is comparable to the superior gods is simply a catastrophe for the ecological food chain, at least for this abyss of death.

The so-called Tyrant of the Abyss had almost no special status in the opponent's collection. He was randomly frozen at the foot of the tunnel corridor, allowing the two to slowly step over his body.

finally.

Lei Luo came to the deepest part of the tunnel, a crude and primitive laboratory measuring tens of thousands of square meters.

At least from the perspective of modern scholars, the laboratory here is too simple, with only the most common experimental instruments.

After the two sat down casually, [Frost Warlock] pointed at the canary that had been frozen on the experimental table.

"This is the partner you mentioned, take it away."

On the frost experimental table, the canary was frozen in the ice. Even though its vitality was extremely powerful, under the power of [Frost Warlock], there was only the last trace of vitality left, and it was scattered randomly with a few small specimens. With.

Only a faint breath remains in the blue ice crystals.

"You're welcome. Take whatever you like. It's my gift."

Facing the generous gift from [Frost Warlock], Lei Luo shook his head.

He is no longer the young scholar he was before, and can no longer do such a disqualified thing. After just retrieving the canary, the pupils of the sun flashed slightly, and the scorching white flames gradually melted the ice, and it looked very difficult.

"you?"

"Don't talk yet."

Lei Luo threw the weak Canary into the space bracelet.

[Frost Magician] said calmly: "How much do you know about the shadow people?"

"Are you talking about the Wall Demon? These are ancient creatures that lived in the Land of Star Curtain tens of thousands of years ago. They seemed to have discovered some kind of powerful power, which caused the ancient gods to migrate to the underground world, leaving them on the surface. , let it fend for itself."

oh?

[Frost Warlock] said in surprise: "You even know this?"

Lei Luo looked heavy.

"The current surface of Star Curtain Land is being invaded by those ancient creatures. They are repeating the history of tens of thousands of years ago, leaving the wall demons that have reproduced in the underground world below, leaving them to fend for themselves!"

"I prefer to call them shadow people."

[Frost Warlock] said slowly: "Originally, the Silhouette Man was just an ordinary shadow elemental energy creature, until one day, they discovered a mysterious creature."

As Lei Luo listened attentively, [Frost Warlock] slowly recounted his research findings in the abyss of death for more than a thousand years.

"This is derived from a mysterious plant called crack moss. This plant has an incredible characteristic. It grows on the laws of nature and humanity, or more vividly, it grows on the spread of natural and humanities laws. On the ground, on the boundary between the inner world and the outer world! Therefore, they have no body. For us, they are just a gap, but for the shadow people, they are a wound, a place for them to parasitize and absorb the law. The wound of force!"

Oh my God, a wound?

This theory is really incredible.

As for the crack moss, Lei Luo has already guessed that the [Frost Warlock] is referring to the invisible and mysterious thing in the black ice.

"Ever since the Wall Shadow People discovered the ability of crack moss, they have been constantly trying to cultivate this strange plant. Finally, they succeeded, and used this as a means to gradually transform themselves into something between the inner world and the outer world. In this world, there are creatures without bodies. In other words... creatures that hide their bodies in the fissure moss, so we can see their existence through the closing changes of the fissure moss, but cannot perceive them through other means. From then on, they became In the presence of the parasites of the gods and the terrifying killers in the shadows, even the powerful ancient gods had no choice but to flee from the surface of the Star Curtain Land with their tails cut off."

"Could it be that even the power of law cannot kill them?"

Lei Luo asked.

"of course not!"

[Frost Warlock] said: "Their power is only against most of the humanistic and natural laws. A small number of humanistic and natural laws can restrain them and construct the deeper essential laws of the world. They are powerless. Some of them are even Things that will kill them, such as...the sun and strong light, etc."

Laws of physics?

Obviously, in the era of [Frost Warlock], there was no concept of physical laws, and they were only regarded as the essential laws that constitute the world. There was no "heliocentric" world view, and the sun was only part of the original laws of the world.

"You mean that they have penetrated into your laws? Is it just because of the restraint ability of the laws that they have not exploded?"

Thinking of the mysterious black ice here, Lei Luo took a deep breath and said.

"Exactly!"

[Frost Warlock] said: "Here, I can still bind them firmly in my body with the power of my own laws, but as long as I return to the surface and merge with various mottled laws, they will look like It spreads just like the Black Death, and may even be more terrible than the Black Death, because they are the Black Death of ancient creatures."

After understanding the other party's perseverance and difficulties, Lei Luo finally had some historical understanding.

After the ancient creatures geckos cut off their tails and migrated to the underground world, the surface lost the parasites they relied on for survival. The remaining wall demons on the surface did suffer heavy losses in a short period of time, but they were not extinct.

What's more important is that a small number of wall demons have entered the underground world together with ancient creatures!

The number of wall shadow demons remaining on the surface continued to decrease sharply due to the lack of parasitism by the laws of the gods. Finally, in order to escape the death storm, they came to the abyss of death.

Until a civilization destroyer who mastered the Frost Law weapon accidentally discovered them in the Death Abyss and carried out a catastrophic strike here, hoping to clean up the pests here.

only.

What the other party didn't expect was that this law attack failed to kill them!

What's even more frightening is that they themselves suffered a counterattack from the wall demons!

Therefore, the unknown destroyers of civilization carried out overloaded repeated attacks with catastrophic weapons, transforming this place into an eternal blizzard realm. As the crack moss was restrained by the catastrophic changes of the Frost Law, it entered a deep sleep and could only reproduce in an extremely slow state. .

After the remaining destroyers of civilization saw these weird and terrifying creatures, some of the infected even gave up returning and sealed themselves here.

Perhaps it was precisely because of their mysterious disappearance in the Land of Star Curtain that subsequent pursuers of unknown civilizations continued to come to the Land of Star Curtain, which in turn caused the continuous ice ages during that period, washing away the prototype civilizations here over and over again. With.

After that, the [Frost Warlock] discovered the secrets of the catastrophic weapons left here, and based on this, he formed the true body of the law, only to find out that he was infected.

Having experienced the disaster of the Black Death, he never wanted to let mankind fall into dire straits again.

So, he hid here for more than a thousand years, tightly binding these terrible creatures to his body, never daring to leave the bottom of the abyss, and trying hard to find a way to escape.

Until... Lei Luo's arrival.
