Chapter 267: Earth's Core World, Star Soul Consciousness
After sealing the earth elemental giant, Richard did not stop, but took Onyxia to open the teleportation spell and left Deepholm directly.
Kalimdor.
On this continent, the Burning Legion is fighting a war with the alliance of various tribes in Kalimdor, and this war has come to an end.
The great demon of the Burning Legion, Archimonde the Defiler, has advanced to the vicinity of Mount Hyrule. When he saw the huge World Tree, Archimonde ordered the army to speed up.
Soon he will get the coveted Well of Eternity. As long as he absorbs the power of the Well of Eternity, he will be able to surpass Sargeras and become the most powerful demon. The Burning Legion will be his from now on - Archimonde has the final say!
Archimonde looked at the night elves, orcs, trolls, etc. who were fighting on the front line, and his heart was full of confidence. As for the casualties of the undead and demons, he didn't care at all.
The undead are cannon fodder. They can be summoned again after death, and they can create another batch after the demons die.
Relying on the human wave tactics, the Burning Legion steadily advanced, and the coalition forces of various races were retreating step by step. No matter what tactics they use, the Burning Legion is just one word, push.
The undead army and the demons cooperated, and they were unstoppable. If there were no other changes, it would only be a matter of time for Archimonde to occupy Mount Hyjal. Standing at the foot of Mount Hyjal, Archimonde looked at the World Tree with greed in his eyes.
"What is this place?" After the teleportation spell ended, Richard and Onyxia appeared in a strange place.
There was no sun in the sky, but he didn't see any stars. It should have been dark here, but a large number of blue fluorescent plants appeared around.
These plants seemed to be breathing, and the fluorescent bodies on them were also very regular, bright and dark, and even some fluorescent mosses in the surrounding rocks emitted a faint glow.
Richard found that most of the plants in the distance were tall mushrooms or mushrooms, and the whole forest seemed very quiet. The air was a little humid, and a breeze blew, and countless fluorescent spores were rolled into the air. The blue fluorescence danced all over the sky, just like the mysterious galaxy in the quiet summer night.
"This should be the underground world." Richard immediately distinguished it after seeing the surrounding environment.
In the multiverse, the material plane is usually divided into two types, one is the planetary plane, and the other is the plane plane. Why there are two completely different plane structures, even the great arcanists have not found the answer.
But in these two planes, more than 70% of the planes have underground worlds. When Richard was studying, he studied the theory of hollow planets. He has also been to some underground worlds.
Except for a few special inner worlds, most of the inner worlds rely on fluorescent plants or fluorescent stones to provide light sources.
Most of the inner worlds are made up of huge rock caves. Some caves are only the size of a room, but some caves are extremely amazing. The size of a small kingdom.
Most of the underground is inhabited by intelligent life, such as gray dwarves, drow elves, minotaurs, low-dwelling fish, cave dwellers, subhumans, eye demons, soul suckers, etc.
But he didn't expect that Azeroth actually had such an underground world.
"So beautiful!" Onyxia looked at the mushroom forest in the distance. These mushrooms were five or six meters high and had many fluorescent spores growing on them. They looked very beautiful and full of mystery.
"The more beautiful the place, the more dangerous it is." Richard said with a smile.
"Danger? What's the danger here?" Onyxia said in surprise.
"Do you see the tree-like creature in the middle?" Richard pointed to a willow-like plant in the underground forest.
"What's wrong with that tree?" Onyxia asked.
Richard stopped talking and summoned a fireball to hit it.
"Boom!"
I saw that the 'willow tree' instantly bared its teeth and claws like an octopus, and the branches extended ten times in all directions like tentacles. Hundreds of tentacles were dancing like demons.
"This is the Ogre Willow. It may not look big, but its underground volume is surprisingly large. All its attacks have a paralyzing effect. Once it is tied up, it will be injected with a large amount of paralyzing toxins. Ordinary dragons will die if they are entangled by it."
"So powerful?" Onyxia looked at the magic willow tree in shock.
"But this thing is also a good staff material!" As Richard said this, a spiritual light flashed on his body, and several explosive fireballs fell. The power of the fireball explosion was extremely strong, and the area around the magic willow tree was blown away by more than ten meters.
This plant-based monster has a lot of blood, but its vitality is quickly lost under the explosive fireball blessed by Richard's power.
The whole magic willow tree was also blown miserably, and the next second a black light full of death appeared instantly.
——【Death Finger! (Spell Extreme Effect + Spell Penetration + Divine Blessing)】
The movement of the magic willow tree, which was dancing its tentacles crazily, stopped at this moment. The next moment all the tentacles fell, and the breath of life on the magic willow tree quickly dissipated.
Finger of Death is an instant death spell. If the judgment is not passed, no matter how powerful the person is, he will die immediately. Originally, the success rate of this spell was not high, only 5%, but after adding various spell effects and divine power, the success rate has been greatly improved.
According to the calculations of the arcanists, one point of divine power increases the probability by 1%, and death divinity increases by 3%. Coupled with his own strength and super magic skills, Richard's success rate in performing the finger of death is about 70%.
If the opponent's resistance is not high, the success rate will be higher.
Richard gently waved his staff and came to the side of the magic willow tree in an instant. He stretched out his hand and gently knocked on the trunk, and then directly used the human ability of the alchemical hand. In an instant, the huge magic willow tree was decomposed by a strange force.
All the tentacles were neatly arranged, the roots were cleaned, and the trunks were divided into very regular cylinders. They were sorted out in different categories and all the processes were completed directly.
This alchemical hand was developed by Richard when he was a great arcanist. In order to facilitate the processing of materials, just like rocks, a light tap can be directly decomposed into a unit of stone, and the same is true for wood. It's just like a minecraft game he played in his previous life.
It's just that this ability cannot be used on living things.
After solving the magic willow tree, Richard and Onyxia explored the underground world. There are still many creatures in the underground world. Richard soon found some dinosaurs.
These dinosaurs have very good eyesight and night vision. These dinosaurs dare not get close to Richard and the others. Although Onyxia is now in human form, she still has the power of a dragon, and those dinosaurs can easily distinguish the danger.
In addition to these, Richard also saw the proto-dragon. The proto-dragon and the guardian dragon were a race a long time ago, but the guardian dragon accepted the blessing of the Titans and gained divine power, which is what it is now.
The proto-dragon is less intelligent, shorter, and cannot use magic, but has a strong physique. Richard used the space crystal ball to capture a few and prepared to take them back to his half plane for breeding.
These space crystals are blessed with life hiding skills, which can put creatures in a state of suspended animation. It is a space prop specially used to hold living things.
After searching the underground world, Richard sensed a vague consciousness. The whole consciousness was not clear, but it was very huge, and it seemed to be everywhere.
This consciousness did not seem to have any ill will towards him, but was always by his side, as if it wanted to communicate with him. Richard thought for a moment, and then linked his consciousness to others.
In an instant, Richard seemed to travel through time and space and came to a magical world. This is an extremely huge planet. The planet was barren, and then various lives appeared little by little. Countless lives appeared and disappeared.
Soon Richard discovered the four elements, and not long after, the ancestral dragon and the trolls began to appear. Next, several huge Titans appeared outside the planet. These Titans arranged various defenses around the planet and then left.
But not long after those Titans left, some shadow creatures with tentacles appeared. As soon as these creatures appeared, they immediately parasitized on the planet. And began to use their power to pollute the star soul.
Seeing this, Richard had realized that this was the "memory" of the entire planet of Azeroth.
Next, the Titan returned, forcibly killed an ancient god, and then sealed the remaining ancient gods. At the same time, they transformed this century according to their ideas, and left guards to guard the planet.
The light and shadow flowed quickly, and soon the Ancient War appeared, the earth was torn apart, and the Great Whirlpool appeared. The original continent was torn apart by this huge force. It was divided into several continents, and some broken islands were submerged by the sea and disappeared.
"Are you the Star Soul of Azeroth?" Richard transmitted the information with his consciousness.
After a long time, this huge consciousness responded to him.
"Yes, yes."
"It hurts so much."
"Help me, help me."
The consciousness of the Star Soul transmitted information, but the information was not very complete. Richard knew that this was because the Star Soul was not mature yet.
If the Star Soul matured, it could communicate freely like humans.
Richard was also very surprised that the Star Soul communicated with him. He always thought that the Star Soul of Azeroth was in a deep sleep, but now it seems that He has awakened.
After awakening, the Star Soul will grow faster. Perhaps in hundreds of years, or perhaps thousands of years, the Star Soul will be completely mature and can break out of the shell. I just don't know if the planet will still exist by then.
Star Soul's consciousness has been asking him for help. He can't speak, it can only be regarded as an idea, or a hazy consciousness.
"You want me to save you?"
"What's wrong with you? Do you need me to save you?" Richard used his consciousness to convey his thoughts.
"Help me, it hurts."
Still hazy consciousness came, Richard understood that the other party might not understand what he meant. So he asked again: "Where does it hurt?"
"Help me, it hurts."
Facing a consciousness with incomplete intellectual development, Richard also had a headache, he was not good at this.
"Who caused your pain?" Richard asked again.
"It's them who are in pain"
Richard's eyes appeared again, and the images of several blurry and hideous shadows and distorted monsters appeared in front of him. Then these hideous monsters waved their hands and fell on the planet, and then those tentacles began to extend underground crazily.
And while extending, they absorbed energy, and at the same time, the power of these monsters began to pollute Star Soul. These monsters drew power from the Star Soul, growing little by little, and at the same time inserting more tentacles deeply into the Star Soul.
"It hurts. Save me." Star Soul's consciousness came again.
"I want to help you, but you can't bear to pull them out by force!"
". Save me. It hurts."
"Okay, I can try to save you, but I can't guarantee whether I can succeed. After all, I have never encountered such a situation." Richard said.
Richard began to communicate with Star Soul more deeply, and at the same time he wanted to experience the world of Star Soul. He wanted to determine the limit of Star Soul's endurance, and then prepare a way to help her kill those ancient gods.
The connection between the ancient gods and Him was very deep. Those tentacles pierced into His body and absorbed energy. It was difficult to peel them out. If the movement was too big, it would likely cause serious consequences to Star Soul.
Eventually, Star Soul and the Ancient Gods collapsed and died together, and then the whole Azeroth would become a dead star.
After deeply sensing Star Soul's consciousness, Richard immediately felt a pain deep in his soul. This pain was unbearable, and there was a feeling of disgust that kept coming.
Richard cut off the connection of consciousness. The pain made him frown. He forcibly pulled out the Ancient God. The Star Soul could not bear this pain. The only power that Richard had to kill the Ancient God was the Death Power.
But his Death Power was very weak and it was difficult to kill the Ancient God. He just clearly sensed the strength of the Ancient God. Their power was between the weak gods and the weak gods.
Richard had to beat them to the near death state to have some chances to kill them. But if he wanted to beat them to the near death state, the battle between him and the Ancient God must be very fierce, and they would definitely struggle desperately.
Star Soul might not be able to hold on at that time.
Richard thought for a while and decided to strengthen the defense of Star Soul first, and then deal with the Ancient God. Star Soul has no ability to resist now. Although his power is very strong, it is like an egg. If it does not break out of the shell, it will be slaughtered.
"I don't have the power to kill them now. I can only help you add some seals to restrict those ancient gods." Richard just passed his consciousness to him, and the next second, he felt a surge of powerful power coming from the Star Soul.
The powerful energy infusion made the magic power in Richard's body increase rapidly. Richard was frightened and quickly cut off the energy. Although this transmission method can improve strength, it is more likely to be blown up. He doesn't want to end up like Archimonde, the Sun Tree.
