Chapter 1000: Traces of the Devil

PreviousBack to directoryNext
His original [Devil's Heart (orange)] was obtained from the Spider Web Monster Lord Leopold.

And Leopold also picked it up from the ruins deep in the mine.

Looking back now, Zong Shen remembered a few unusual details.

First of all, the [Devil's Heart (Orange)] has a long "standby time". Even after more than 10,000 years, it can still release the devilish energy with bewitching and fanatical qualities, thus causing the spider web monster group to have troubles.

Severely demonized.

The source of this demonization is not the power of the devil, but the law of the devil!

Yes, it involves the power of ethnic law and is also a powerful manifestation of the demonic invaders.

Demonic energy is seriously polluting to non-demon races, especially after long-term exposure, it will turn into demonized creatures.

Therefore, Zong Shen can conclude that the original owner of the [Devil's Heart (Orange)] must not be a minor character.

He has already seen the powerful methods of the deputy commander-level [Destroyer of Silence Artorius LV80] in defensive challenges.

So what kind of strength does the Dread Lord who was the commander of the army have?

This seems to be evident from the heart it left behind.

As far as he knew, there were three Dreadlord commanders in the blood-burning demon army that originally attacked Azshara, and the strongest among them held the position of army commander.

The Dread Lord is considered a branch race among the Burning Blood Demons. Just like humans are divided into various races according to skin color and region, there are also many branches among the Demons.

So there are both powerful Dreadlord races and some that are weaker.

Anyone who can be given the suffix Demon King is not considered a minor character.

Let’s go back to the original level of the [Devil’s Heart (Orange)] which was only orange legendary level.

This is easy to understand. Zong Shen has long understood that the level of an item cannot absolutely measure the value of the item.

Because there is a complex set of formulas for the determination of equal orders.

For such a heart that has been exposed in the ruins for more than 10,000 years, it is not bad that it can still maintain the orange legendary level, but this does not affect the demonic effect it contains.

It is no exaggeration to say that the original foundation of Zong Shen's current [Devil State] is the combination of the [Devil Transformation] skill [Devil Heart (Orange)], and the subsequent swallowed [Devil Essence and Blood] and [

The Demon's Remnant Soul] can only be regarded as the icing on the cake.

So now, the conclusion is obvious.

The ruins deep in the mine must contain the blood-burning demon army leader who attacked Azshara.

Intuition told Zong Shen that this time his [Devil State] might usher in a new round of strengthening.

Because he has discovered that although the few status skills he has mastered are not weak, they are still far behind compared with unteachable skills such as [God Descends to Earth] and [Super Gigantic Transformation]. There is still a big gap.

There is room for improvement!

While ensuring that his original intention remains unchanged, he upholds an attitude of accepting all forces that come.

Whether it's the infamous blood-burning demon, the highly praised Holy Spirit, or the hundred-eyed giant whose muscles grow in his brain, he has no prejudice.

Power is always innocent, and there is no distinction between good and evil.

What really makes the difference is the will and thoughts of each independent intelligence.

If he is evil, then the power is evil; if he is righteous, the power is also righteous.

Of course, Zong Shen doesn't like either of them and just wants to be a profit-seeking neutral.

Anyone who interferes with him will be beaten to death.

He would kill anyone who stood in the way of his fortune.

Simple, crude, direct, and easy to use.

Especially in this world where the boundaries between good and evil are blurred, who knows if the Archbishop who talks so much about praising the Holy Light is actually a disgusting pervert behind his back?

Who can guarantee that a seemingly vicious race will not adhere to kindness and procedural justice?

Forcing a definition is nonsense in itself.

It's like letting carnivores eat grass and herbivores eat meat.

No one can condemn carnivores as sinful for eating meat, or vice versa.

Many races look bad, which is the nature of the race itself. Since we can't tell the difference between right and wrong, then everything should return to the core perspective of success and defeat.

If you win the battle, it is justice; if you fail to win, you are evil.

This is the truth that Zong Shen understands, and it is also the reason why he can treat every force calmly.

The team continued to move forward, going down the dark mine tunnel, and soon came to a mine tunnel hall.

This hall is not the deepest part of the extension line of the West Road. Judging from the distance, it should be the transfer point underground in the northern mountain of the territory, and this fact proves this.

In addition to the mine tunnel that continues downward, there are two other bifurcated passages here.

A channel also extends to the west, but it does not go down but up.

Another passage extends to the north.

Zong Shen does not need to choose an intersection, he only needs to call the strategy module and scan the results briefly.

[West 5 upward mining road, leading to Azshara Mountain Bunker to connect to the mining area]



[West 5 North 1 parallel mine road, leading to the corresponding extended mining area]



[West 5 downward mining tunnel, leading to the deep underground mining area of ​​the West Road mining tunnel]



Sorry, Guabi is so willful.

The guide notes clearly mark the corresponding location number and destination of each passage.

The display of this thing is clearer than the road signs in the game. There is no such thing as getting lost!

In addition to these bifurcated mine tunnels, there are also many mining magic machines in the hall. Unfortunately, due to improper preservation, these machines are severely rusted and are all in a gray and damaged state. They are not like what he used to do in the warehouse.

The magic machines sealed with oil paper are as well preserved as those found inside.

There are about dozens of magic machines in the hall, including many transportation and mining machines that are larger than the Land Walker mecha.

There are also magic forklifts and magic trailers responsible for loading and unloading secondary schools.

The shapes of these magic machines are more beautiful than the same type of machines today.

Because the magic technology and rune technology of the last era were more powerful than they are now.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Regarding this, he knew this when he was chasing Hideki Mitani, entering Azshara Mountain Bunker for the first time, and seeing the damaged rune puppet.

.

Relevant technologies experienced a loss when eras changed.

Later, it was passively suppressed by the lord system and was locked into the technology tree.

Otherwise, after more than 10,000 years of normal research, magic energy technology and corresponding rune technology would have developed to an unimaginable level.

As for the current magic energy technology in Endless Continent, it is far from reaching its peak. It can even be said to be still lingering at the foot of the mountain. The evil lord system dominates everything. This is also the reason why Zong Shen occasionally feels powerless in his heart.

Anyone who knows that there is an inexplicable being controlling everything above their head will feel powerless.

In addition, there are also a large number of accumulated minerals that have not been transferred, as well as metal mine carts with simple structures.

It's just that the track system is severely damaged and needs to be repaired, which is not a difficult task.

Zong Shen led the team into the mine tunnel hall and found many corpses while walking there.

The ethnic groups of these corpses vary, including elves with smaller skulls, normal humans, and trolls whose overall skeleton size reaches three to four meters.

Corresponding to this are the bones of various demons. Compared with the ethnic groups in the Endless Continent, there are more types of demons and more fancy shapes, including humanoids and non-humanoids.

During previous defensive challenges, [Destroyer of Silence Artorius] summoned a large number of low-level demons.

Among them are demons such as succubi who are sexy and alluring in line with human aesthetics, and there are also guys who look like lizards.

It is precisely because of this characteristic that the demon corpses scattered on the ground are all diverse and look angular.

However, the bones here have not been transformed into undead, and the existence of the undead's death energy has not been seen.

A large number of broken and decayed weapons were scattered everywhere.

Some ancient weapons that still have recycling value were found among them.

There are about a dozen of them. Due to damage and preservation, most of them are excellent and rare, and have little remaining durability.

In addition to recyclable weapons and equipment, Zong Shen also used the strategy module to find a wave of treasure chests.

There are actually twelve treasure chests scattered in this mine hall.

They are:

[Golden Treasure Chest x1]

[Silver Treasure Chest x3]

[Bronze Treasure Chest x5]

[Black Iron Treasure Chest x4]



The best thing is that there is no trap chest in it.

It may be because each treasure box is separated. Zong Shen doesn't know the specific reason. He can only attribute it to luck.

Sometimes it is not important to study laws and principles. Existence is the truth.

After collecting the treasure chest, Zong Shen chose the passage down the West Road to continue moving forward.

As for the remaining minerals in the hall, let’s wait until the mining team touches here.

He is not short of resources now, and there is no need to go out of his way to collect these ores personally.

After all, times are progressing and society is developing, sir!

Walking into the descending passage of the West Road, it didn't take long for another wave of resurrected undead to appear.

This time, in addition to various skeleton warriors with missing arms and legs, skeleton shooters and skeleton spellcasters, there are also new varieties.

There are some wandering ghosts, and there are still a lot of rune tracks left in the mine tunnels here.

Apparently some kind of magic circle had been arranged.

Zong Shen, who had been idle for a while, also felt a little itchy, so he took the [Moon Wolf Fang (Legacy)] and [Azzinoth Demon-Slaying Warblade (Gold)] in person.

That [Moon Wolf Fang (Legacy)] exudes a soft white warm light in the dark mine tunnel.

The [Demon-Slaying Glaive of Azzinoth (Gold)] ignited a dark green sacrificial fire.

One white and one green light followed Zong Shen forward, swiping and slashing continuously.

In just a minute or two, after losing three to four hundred points of life, Zong Shen killed the last ghost.

Gained tens of thousands of experience points and hundreds of extraction points.

Now, for him to deal with these undead monsters, which are no more than purple leader level, it is simply a dimensionality reduction attack.

After easily destroying the monsters blocking the road, I collected the treasure chests along the way.

I found [Silver Treasure Chest x2] and [Bronze Treasure Chest x3] again. As usual, I put them all away first.

Now he no longer values ​​low-level treasure chests as much as before. They are common items that can be opened in large quantities and are not considered rare things.

He waved his hand to the rear, and the team moved forward again!



The sealed place deep in the mine.

The half-undead, half-demon guy was talking nonstop to the "half-elf" mummy undead trapped in the altar.

"Ansel, I can vaguely feel the rhythm of my heart."

"The heart that you picked off and discarded with your own hands..."

"Hey hey hey..."

As it spoke, it suddenly smiled nervously.

It has been trapped here for too long, and its only pleasure is to watch the half of Ansel's soul being whipped and tortured by the demon-slaying altar in the undead body.

At the same time, he talks to himself.

"It seems like that guy is not affected by the demonization."

"Maybe he's a warrior who will live thousands of years in the future."

"Hoo ho ho ho!"

"I don't know how many warriors I killed in the Endless Continent..."

"What a weak world."

"If it weren't for those damned damned ones!"

"Hate it!"

It opened its big, dry mouth hysterically, revealing a mouthful of yellow and chipped teeth.

At this time, the struggling half of the light blue soul shadow inside the altar suddenly calmed down.

"demon…"

"Your death has come..."

A smile appeared on half of Soul Shadow's face.

Then he was pulled and attracted wildly by the body of the undead, and then hit by the black rope of the altar.

Entering into the previous painful cycle.

Seeing his old enemy suddenly speaking out, the undead demon was startled, and then laughed wildly.



At the same time, Zong Shen and others stopped moving forward.

Because half a soul appeared in front of him.

The state of this soul body is very strange, and its carrier is a broken silver moon emblem.

The reason why it is determined that it is a soul body and not a ghost is based on the color of the shadow.

The pure newborn soul body is pale white, like diluted milk.

The soul body that has been away from the body for too long, but exists forever because of its specialness, is light blue.

Ghosts, evil spirits and the like are either gray or black, and there are even manic red ghosts.

These are common sense for identifying souls in Endless Continent.

Suddenly being blocked by a soul body with only half of it, Zong Shen couldn't figure out its intentions.

But judging from the physical characteristics of the soul body, this guy should have been an elf during his lifetime.

He did not approach rashly, but conducted a test at a distance that was just right for soul wave communication.

Don't forget that Zong is a language master who has mastered the soul wave communication method (the earliest tongue-learning candy).

Sure enough, when the distance was right, he received the soul waves emitted by this soul body.

"Human warrior..."

"Can you hear my call?"

"Human warrior!"

It seems to be repeatedly trying to use soul fluctuations to call Zong Shen.

"Ancient souls?"

"You're lucky, I happen to have mastered the communication method of soul fluctuations."

Zong Shen answered casually.

I saw that half of the soul trembled and looked very excited!
