Chapter 171 Lu Mingze, you don’t miss your brother either...
"Happy Zen..."
Su Mo was slightly startled when he heard this word with color implications.
He would put aside all contact information, even ignore the alarm of Media Asia Group, and go to the deep mountains and wild forests to engage in dual cultivation. Is this really something that the incomparable and majestic Iron-faced Dragon King can do?
Why does it sound so unreliable?
It's unreliable but also a little familiar. Why does this slutty style seem familiar?
In the original work, there seems to be only one other person besides Fingel who can do this.
Considering the relationship with the Gattuso family, Odin's identity is also ready to be revealed.
"You mean, Pompeii is Odin?"
Su Mo asked directly in surprise.
There are indeed many doubts about Pompeii in the original work. Whether it is the crusade against the King of Earth and Mountain or the White King, he is always behind it.
He was indeed deeply involved in the Gattuso family's plan to cultivate the White King, and might even be the instigator. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to arrange the deep submersible and the "Wrath of Heaven" system in time.
However, because his style was too much of a stud and his personality was too lewd, Su Mo never considered him as a front-row candidate for the Dragon King.
In comparison, Angers is more like the Dragon King than him.
However, after receiving the reminder from Lu Mingze and thinking about it in reverse, he found that it was not impossible.
The only people who can completely control the Gattuso family, apart from the head of the family, are the elders of the Gattuso family.
If those elders are not the ones behind the scenes, then isn't the only person worthy of suspicion the Pompeii who has been pretending to be crazy?
He obviously knows so much information and has planned so many conspiracies, but he gives the impression that he is just a carefree, harmless stallion. This impression itself seems suspicious enough.
"Pompeii Gattuso, that was his human name."
Lu Mingze nodded and agreed with Su Mo's judgment.
The biggest advantage of bringing the big boss behind the scenes to your side is this. You won't encounter any Riddlers, and any problems will be solved immediately.
"In that case, Caesar is the son of the Dragon King..."
After confirming Odin's identity from Lu Mingze, Su Mo pondered.
He originally thought that Caesar was a finished product made by the Gattuso family through bloodline alchemy experiments and other methods over the generations. But now it seems that this is not the case, at least not completely accurate.
But, if he is the son of the Dragon King, why is he such a bad guy?
According to the rules of the Dragon Clan, the next-generation species is not born from the reproduction of the Dragon King. As the child of a Dragon King and a human, it is normal for Caesar not to have a second-generation species-level bloodline, but looking at his combat performance, it seems a bit ridiculous.
However, the power of dragons does not all depend on bloodline. Just as Lu Mingze said before, the heart of the Dragon King is equally important.
Caesar's qualifications may be more reflected in the heart of the Dragon King.
After all, in the original work, he also used violent blood many times, but he never had any dangerous and depraved tendencies.
Thinking of this, Su Mo put aside this point for the time being and will explore the special nature of Caesar after entering Kassel College to meet him. What he has to consider now is the issue at hand.
"If we start tomorrow night, there won't be enough time. I'm still thinking about taking Xia Mi to the Bronze City to strengthen it first!"
Su Mo shook his head and said.
Before, the main reason why he did not take Xia Mi to Bronze City rashly was to avoid Lu Mingze's attention.
It's not a good idea to be hostile to Lu Mingze over a keel.
Now that Lu Mingze has become a teammate, and Odin is a destined opponent, Su Mo will naturally think of strengthening Xia Mi so that she can truly have the power of a dragon king level.
Anyway, Xia Mi also has a high degree of mastery of the bronze and fire systems.
In this case, you don't have to worry too much about her safety in the future.
Thinking of this, Su Mo suggested.
"How about we give up the pursuit of time and let Xia Mi become stronger first?"
Isn't the reason why we have to wait for a specific time just to avoid running into Odin directly?
If we directly strengthen Xia Mi, wouldn't we not have to worry about this problem?
Constantine is the individual with the greatest control over power among the Kings of Bronze and Fire. If he were to be devoured, even Xia Mi would be able to collide head-on with Odin, right?
If this is the case, what time do we still need to consider? Just kill him head-on!
Hearing Su Mo's words, Lu Mingze shook his head.
"First of all, if I'm here, you don't need the additional power of the Dragon Bone Cross to deal with Odin."
As long as he is here, their fighting strength is sufficient, otherwise he would not make this proposal.
"Secondly, Odin should also be monitoring Bronze City. If you trigger Bronze City, he will definitely know your existence and be alert, and may even transfer what we want."
Odin, who has plans all over the world, would not be so stupid that his prey disappears without knowing it.
If Xia Mi devoured Constantine's Dragon Bone Cross in advance, Odin would soon find that his plans had changed drastically, and it would be impossible for him to engage in dual cultivation.
"If he dares to have a head-on confrontation, it will be easy to solve, but if he continues to hide behind the scenes and wait for opportunities to attack, it will be troublesome."
Lu Mingze spread his hands and expressed his concerns.
"That's right."
Su Mo nodded.
Odin is not a fool. It is impossible for him to follow the original plot after his plan was ruined.
If he suddenly discovered that Xia Mi, who was not supposed to know the location of the Bronze City, suddenly swallowed Constantine, he would definitely become vigilant.
It is impossible for Lao Yinbi like this to come directly to get rid of them like Leng Touqing. Instead, he will continue to hide in the shadows.
An upright Dragon King is not scary. What is scary is those Dragon Kings who you don't know what they will do. Just like Lu Mingze, whom Su Mo has always been afraid of, Odin is obviously an old bastard just like Lu Mingze.
If Odin stays behind, not only will the plot be messed up, but they will also have to be on guard every day to prevent his sneak attacks.
Therefore, it is really not a good idea to alert the enemy.
The best way is to let Odin know that an enemy is coming, as they have already planned, but not let him know how strong the enemy is, and create an atmosphere similar to the Chu Tianjiao incident in order to lure the snake out of its hole.
"Lastly, and most importantly."
Seeing that the other party understood what he meant, Lu Mingze looked at Su Mo and said.
"You underestimate Odin too much! With the strength of your silly girl, even if she devours Constantine, she will never be a match for Odin, so this is useless."
Hearing this, Su Mo was shocked.
He had expected Odin to be powerful, but he had not expected that he would be so powerful.
Logically speaking, since the plot has not yet begun, he should not have the Dragon Bone Cross to devour.
Why is it that Xia Mi’s power and Constantine’s power combined are no match for Odin?
Is this a bit too exaggerated?
Is Odin too strong or Shayya too weak?
"Is Odin so strong?"
Su Mo asked.
"Stronger than the average Dragon King."
Lu Mingze nodded and casually revealed some incredible information.
"After all, besides the Black King, he is the Dragon King with the highest achievement in alchemy. Just like what is said in the myth, he is not only the king of warriors, but also the master of wisdom."
"The first-generation species with the highest achievement in alchemy is actually not the King of Bronze and Fire?"
Hearing this, Su Mo was stunned.
No wonder the King of Bronze and Fire died so easily in the original work, and was inferior to other Dragon Kings within his own scope of authority. This character is indeed a bit weak.
So, the reason why Odin is so strong mainly depends on alchemy?
Su Mo thought thoughtfully, thinking of the divine spear Gungnir held by Odin in the original work, and the information that Xia Mi once said that top alchemical creations may be made of wood.
Perhaps even the mask that Chu Zihang used to transform into Odin was an alchemical creation smelted by Odin himself.
He had seen Xia Mi's alchemy before and felt that it was not bad at all.
Now when I compared it with Odin, I realized that there was a huge difference.
"Um."
Lu Mingze nodded.
Odin was the most troublesome among all the first-generation species. He didn't want to see Su Mo throw himself into the street because he underestimated the enemy too much.
"Okay then, let's keep the plan unchanged."
After learning about Odin's information, Su Mo absorbed the advice from his good deeds.
The opponent is a guy with superior strength and a thief. It is difficult to deal with Lu Mingze who is not equally powerful and a thief.
As for Miss Xia Mi, she originally thought she would finally have a chance to stand up, but now it seems she has given up.
At least before the crusade against Odin, Shami cannot be allowed to devour Constantine, so as not to alert the enemy.
Thinking of this, Su Mo spoke again.
"According to the planned timetable, we will start action on time at midnight tomorrow. We need to find Project α within half an hour and get the Black King's flesh and blood. But Odin won't arrive until seven in the morning at the earliest.
After receiving the news, it would take at least one or two hours for him to arrive from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, right? There would be at least a gap of more than seven hours. In this case, why should the initial time be calculated so tightly? "
He raised the questions he had in mind when planning the timetable with Su Enxi.
Su Enxi was used to the weird rules put forward by her boss, and she just followed them without asking why, but Su Mo was a little concerned about the reasons.
Especially the time point, why is it so urgent at the beginning but waste so much time on meaningless waiting later?
Hearing Su Mo's question, Lu Mingze shook his head.
"To correct one thing, Odin will not receive the message until seven in the morning at the earliest, but the earliest time he arrives here is also seven in the morning."
Hearing this, Su Mo was stunned.
"What do you mean, he can teleport?"
It doesn't take any time to travel from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in the north to the southern coast. Even if the King of Sky and Wind uses zero time to travel the entire journey, it's not so outrageous, right?
"It's not teleportation, but space opening. This is one of the seven outstanding achievements of alchemy. Although it is not that easy to use, you can think of it as him having the ability to return to the city. When he knows that something happened here
The time must have come back."
Lu Mingze explained casually.
This is also the reason why Odin feels free to put the Black King's egg here and travel around by himself.
For him who can return to the city at any time, the Black King's Egg is indeed very safe, and he can appear by his side at any time.
"As for why there is such a long gap, it is to allow time for you to cocoon and absorb the blood of the Black King."
Lu Mingze explained the reason why he deliberately set aside such a long period of time.
The Black King's flesh and blood will be obtained within half an hour, and the remaining time will be given to Su Mo for cocooning and absorption, and then he will fight Odin.
Hearing this, Su Mo was a little confused.
"So anxious? Just devour the loot as soon as you get it. Shouldn't you wait until Odin is defeated and it's safe?"
If the incubation time is too long, wouldn't he be useless if Odin comes?
"No! If you keep that thing, you will never be safe."
Lu Mingze shook his head again and explained.
"Didn't I say before that Odin can move through space opening? Space opening requires landmarks. You can think of them as teleportation coordinates or anchor points. After Chu Tianjiao's mistake, he is very likely to set up the Black King's egg.
It’s become a road sign.”
"In other words, if you carry the Black King's egg with you, you may be attacked by Odin at any time?"
Su Mo immediately understood what Lu Mingze meant.
If this is the case, keeping the Black King's egg is equivalent to telling the other party where you are.
If he were attacked by Odin while he was in cocoon, the consequences would be disastrous.
Although you can set a trap to capture him based on this, it's better to do it before he knows about it.
I'm afraid that he won't come, and I'm afraid that he will come randomly.
"Yes, only by completely absorbing the Black King's blood can the characteristics of the beacon itself be destroyed."
Lu Mingze nodded.
Therefore, it is not possible to absorb it afterward. It is best to cook the raw rice into cooked rice before Odin knows about it, and completely absorb the blood of the Black King.
Only then did Su Mo fully understand the reasons for setting these rigid rules.
First break through the Media Asia Building and obtain the Black King's egg, then transform into a cocoon and hatch, waiting for Odin's arrival.
Only in this way can Odin be prevented from escaping or hiding himself, leaving no further trouble.
"After absorbing the Black King's blood, my strength should also increase."
Su Mo glanced at his personal panel.
[Dragon blood: LV4, 9960/10000]
Because he had suffered several violent outbursts in order to practice speaking spirit, his current dragon blood experience value was close to the limit of LV4.
Even though the blood of the Black King is mainly used to cross the road to becoming a god and does not provide much bloodline bonus, for the current Su Mo, even a small bonus is enough to promote him to LV5 and reach LV5.
A genuine S-Class.
From A level to S level, there is a qualitative change in strength.
If the bloodline is upgraded to LV5, and the basic bloodline level is extremely high, Su Mo's power will become stronger after using Bloodbath again.
You will also have greater confidence in fighting Odin.
Thinking like this, Su Mo suddenly had an idea. He immediately looked at Lu Mingze and asked.
"Speaking of which, the dream you showed at noon should be exactly the same as reality, right?"
He was referring to the sea he saw at noon, and the bronze pillars of the ice and sea.
Of course, it was impossible for Lu Mingze to really take him back to ten thousand years ago, when the Ice and Sea Bronze Pillar Table had not yet been destroyed. It only appeared to him in the form of a dream.
Su Mo can also see this from Lu Mingze's personal dashboard.
[Authority: LV7 (spiritual element authority, weak state, partially sealed)]
Probably because Lu Mingfei is not willing to agree to the deal, Lu Mingze cannot fully display his current strength. The LV7 panel can probably only be used to the level of LV6.
But with his strength, LV6 is enough.
"It's indeed the same, what's wrong?"
Lu Mingze nodded and looked at Su Mo doubtfully.
"I was wondering if your dream could be used as a training ground for me to practice ancient boxing techniques?"
Su Mo frankly expressed his thoughts.
"If it can be exactly the same as the real world, if nothing else, the experience should be inherited!"
Things like Yan Ling also need to resonate with external elements, but ancient boxing techniques do not.
As long as the physical structure meets the standard, wouldn't Lu Mingze's ability be used as a spiritual house?
Hearing Su Mo's idea, Lu Mingze nodded hesitantly.
"If it is an ancient boxing technique, it can indeed be practiced in a dream, but are you sure you want to do this? We will attack the Media Asia Group tomorrow night, and it is too late to improvise now."
Hearing what he said, Su Mo shook his head.
"It's not fun to grind your guns in battle. Besides, can't your dreams control the flow of time? In this case, one day of practice can be equivalent to two months, right?"
In the real world, you can't find so many large buildings for Su Mo to practice, but it's different in the dream.
Not to mention anything else, the ice-sea copper pillar watch alone was enough for Su Mo to practice for a long time.
With such a good target, wouldn't the experience value of ancient boxing skills increase like a "swish"?
Although with the current difficulty of accumulating experience, even two months of practice may not be enough to advance to LV5, but you will definitely be able to make great progress.
Looking at it this way, Lu Mingze can completely become a machine for himself to gain experience!
Thinking of this, Su Mo's eyes began to sparkle when he looked at the little devil.
Feeling Su Mo's burning eyes, Lu Mingze's face froze.
"Although it is possible, it is not necessary. Our current lineup is enough, and we have been practicing for a day. Don't you need to sleep?"
Although he also hopes that Su Mo will become stronger quickly, isn't this too complicated for Su Mo?
Is this 007? The devil also needs to rest!
If you are not tired, he is still tired!
"In the current war, rest is naturally necessary, but isn't there still another day?"
Su Mo asked rhetorically.
"Tomorrow will start at six o'clock in the morning and end at six o'clock in the evening. After that, you will rest and adjust. This is exactly twelve hours. With your ability, you should be able to extend it to more than a month, right?"
Even Ange could achieve the magnification. In the dream, there should be no reason why Lu Mingze couldn't do it.
Practicing without sleep for a month, this is several times more efficient than ordinary Su Mo practice.
"Twelve hours is too long. My brother can't even wake up that early."
Lu Mingze's face was full of resistance.
"Besides, I have to follow my brother to buy breakfast for my aunt, and I have to help my brother find a way to sneak out to play games. I really don't have time!"
Anyway, the combat power is enough, why do you have to work so hard to roll it?
He still has to observe his brother's actions!
Hearing what Lu Mingze said, Su Mo was speechless.
What kind of yandere brother-controller is this? He still clings to his brother at such an old age.
Moreover, how can we only count paper data for things like combat? As long as we can get a chance to win, we should seize it!
Thinking of this, Su Mo said earnestly.
"Lu Mingfei can watch it anytime, but he doesn't have that much time to practice."
Thinking of this, he paused and then said.
"Lu Mingze, you don't want your brother to always be a puppet of fate, right?"
"..."
After hearing this, Lu Mingze's face froze and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
Although I know what Su Mo said is correct.
However, as soon as they became allies, the other party came to squeeze their labor force.
Although it was true that he wanted to escape from the prison of fate, he still couldn't help but have doubts. Did he choose the wrong person when he chose Su Mo as his ally?
"Okay, okay! Since you said so, I will cooperate with you tomorrow!"
Anyway, Su Mo wouldn't lose anything with his proposal, so he simply raised his hands and surrendered.
"But before that, you have to deal with your silly girl. She -"
Halfway through his words, Lu Mingze suddenly stopped and looked a little strange.
Su Mo noticed this, but didn't know why Lu Mingze was like this.
He thought Lu Mingze was talking about his showdown and alliance with Xia Mi.
So he answered.
"Don't worry, I will go back to Xia Mi later to ask her to recognize the covenant and then bring her back."
It’s easy to convince a mere Xia Mi.
Although the time was only tonight, Su Mo was confident that he could trick her over and agree to the alliance.
In this case, there will be time to gain experience points in Lu Mingze's dream tomorrow.
Hearing Su Mo's words, Lu Mingze showed a mysterious smile, as if he was gloating about his misfortune.
"Maybe you don't have to go to such trouble."
"What's the meaning?"
Su Mo looked at him doubtfully.
"nothing."
Lu Mingze shook his head, and then looked at Su Enxi and others who had completely sobered up and were paralyzed.
"I'm sorry! My aunt is looking for my brother to run errands. I have to go there now, so I won't accompany you any longer. You three remember to follow the rehearsal practice and give your allies the warmest reception!"
After nodding his head as if to apologize to Su Mo and leaving his final instructions, Lu Mingze's figure immediately disappeared impatiently.
Only Su Mo and the three members of the nanny group were left behind.
After hearing Lu Mingze's last order.
Although the three members of the nanny group were confused, they still carried out the task as required.
Zero eagerly picked up a plate of dessert, Su Enxi picked up a glass of wine, and Jutoku Mai also picked up a pair of exquisite shrimp dumplings. The three girls approached at the same time, all looking very beautiful.
"Bad dad, eat this!"
"Master, have another drink!"
"Chief, open your mouth, ah~"
The three girls surrounded Su Mo and launched attacks at the same time.
Facing the service of three people, even though the three of them are very delicate and lovely in appearance, they are more beautiful than the exquisite dishes, and they look tempting.
But the first thing Su Mo felt was not some beauty, but a faint sense of crisis. It seemed that the source of the sense of crisis was not the three girls in front of him.
What's going on? Where does the danger come from?
When Su Mo was puzzled.
"boom--!"
The sound of the door bursting open sounded, as if someone had broken in.
Moreover, in the fierce storm, Su Mo vaguely felt a familiar atmosphere.
That is the smell of summer gardenia.
etc!
Shouldn't it be!
His eyes suddenly widened, and he finally realized something was wrong.
However, it's too late.
PS: The settings of Odin’s identity and the most powerful dragon king in alchemy besides the Black King are derived from the recent settings of the Dragon King’s revised version of Dragon Four. They are retained because they are in line with the settings of this book.
