498 Dragon Blood LV6, the last level on the road to becoming a god
Chapter 499 Dragon Blood LV6, the last level on the road to becoming a god
On this evening, the army of the mixed-blood alliance was almost overthrown by one of Odin's Deadpools.
Su Mo and Xia Mi appeared in the lobby of Heishi's official residence, all wet. A sea of water poured directly from behind them onto the wooden floor. Fortunately, the space passage was closed in time, locking the remaining deep sea water in.
Su Enxi and Princess Zero, who was supposed to be in charge of the mixed-race alliance, immediately put on the posture of a maid, handed the prepared dry towels to the two of them, and turned on the kotatsu at the same time.
"Thank you for your hard work, you are worthy of being the Dragon King. You can complete the task so quickly!"
Su Enxi diligently helped Xia Mi wipe her hair while saying free compliments.
"Humph! Of course!"
Xia Mi snorted softly, seeming to appreciate the compliment.
but--
“The promised reward cannot be less!”
She deliberately emphasized that she was not such an easy woman to coax.
"Oh, yes, yes!"
Su Enxi nodded with a grimace, but she was very happy inside.
This time, Xia Mi did not try to increase the reward, but only asked for the full payment. This was beyond her expectations.
As long as the expectations are low enough, everything will be a surprise.
Su Mo on the other side was cooperating with Zero's wiping while looking at the suitcase in front of him.
At this time, the suitcase had been opened by a graceful "big-breasted monster", and white low-temperature steam immediately filled the air. Inside the suitcase was a cylinder, which was soaked in liquid nitrogen at minus two hundred degrees, with a layer of frost on the surface.
A thick layer of white frost.
This is the trophy he and Xia Mi obtained from their deep-sea travels, and it is also the commission that Lu Mingze mentioned before.
In the original work, Mai Shutoku took advantage of Caesar's team's Deliast submersible to reach the bottom of the Abyss, found the wreckage of the Lenin, and obtained this item from it. She was even almost killed by Eri.
He was killed in the aftermath of the trial.
But now, with Su Mo and Xia Mi, two high-level thugs, there is no need for Shutoku Mai to take risks. Su Mo and Xia Mi only rely on their dragon-transformed physiques to sneak into the depths of the Abyss and obtain this item.
"This is the King of Ocean and Water?"
Su Mo closed his eyes and lowered his head, letting Ling stand on tiptoe and use a towel to wipe away the remaining seawater on his face.
But the words that came out of his mouth were enough to shock the entire mixed-race world.
The King of Ocean and Water is the only Dragon King among the four great monarchs so far who has never been recorded and has never awakened.
Except for the record of the great flood in mythology, which may have been caused by the "return of the ultimate spirit" of the King of Ocean and Water, the King of Ocean and Water has never appeared in other historical records.
But today, someone actually claimed that he had obtained the King of Ocean and Water.
"That's right."
A boy's voice sounded in front of Su Mo.
The boy stretched out his hand and directly picked up the metal cylinder. For ordinary people, if they pick up items that have been frozen with low-temperature liquid nitrogen, their hands will inevitably get stuck to it or even freeze off.
The boy was not restricted at all, and even wiped off the thick white frost on the metal cylinder with his bare hands.
After wiping off the white frost, the metal surface of the stainless steel reveals spiderweb-like blood vessel patterns. The things inside can actually corrode even metal!
"In terms of vitality, it is the best even among the first generation species. It seems that the sacrifice of the Lenin did not completely kill it."
Lu Mingze's eyes rarely showed a happy color.
He stroked the metal pipe in his hand as if stroking a kitten, and finally put his face on it.
"We meet again, my pet! It's been so long and we're not dead yet... How wonderful!"
Seeing Lu Mingze's rare expression of true feelings, everyone fell silent, as if leaving time to him.
Only Miss Xia Mi didn't care much about the atmosphere. Seeing Lu Mingze holding a metal can against it, she looked at Su Enxi with a strange expression.
"Has your boss always been such a pervert?"
Hearing this, Su Enxi hesitated and shook her head.
"Although he has always been perverted, he usually doesn't seem to be this perverted."
Isn’t it a little too weird to hold a monster that can eat away at metal cans?
"...Ladies, I need to remind you that I can hear you."
Lu Mingze put down the metal can with a slight twitch in his mouth and stuffed it back into the liquid nitrogen in the metal box.
"I know you can hear it, so I want to remind you tactfully!"
Miss Xia Mi said very straightforwardly.
After gaining the authority of the God of Death Hela and the God of Fire Surtel at the same time, she seemed to have swelled up a bit, and her confidence in talking to Lu Mingze was also much greater.
Looking at her appearance, it is not difficult to imagine that if she really swallowed up all the authority of the Dragon King, she would definitely tear up the treaty and stab Lu Mingze directly in the back.
With Lu Mingze's intelligence, he would have expected this in advance and stabbed Xia Mi in the back in advance. In the end, it would be a lose-lose situation.
Fortunately, now, neither party needs to worry about this——
"I think you should relearn the meaning of euphemism."
Lu Mingze just complained helplessly and turned his attention to Su Mo.
——Because Xia Mi was never Lu Mingze’s alliance partner, it was Su Mo who signed the treaty with him.
Naturally, Su Mo wouldn't be like Xia Mi who swelled up because of the little strength in front of him. Seeing Lu Mingze put down the jar and stick it, he thought thoughtfully.
"This King of Oceans and Water, is he the only one among the eight kings who stands on your side?"
When he confirmed the information with Lu Mingze, Lu Mingze told him that one of the eight kings, the Dragon King, did not betray him, and that was the King of Ocean and Water.
It is speculated based on the original work that the dragon who was tortured to death by Herzog left two eggs in his eyeballs before dying, one of which was the king of ocean and water, and the other was Lu Mingze.
Lu Mingze woke up first and became patient zero. The other egg was taken aboard the Lenin, and finally sank into the abyss and was sacrificed to King Bai.
"Well, its authority is water, which controls life and the ocean."
Lu Mingze closed the suitcase and handed it to Su Mo.
"What's the meaning?"
Su Mo took the suitcase and asked doubtfully.
Wouldn't it be useful if Lu Mingze came?
"Use your ability to strip away its authority. Don't you have plans to train that guy into a fighting force?"
Lu Mingze shrugged and glanced at Xia Mi.
"I do have this plan."
Su Mo nodded and did not refuse.
His power lies in learning and upgrading.
With the help of the mask, he can tell the students about the power that Xia Mi has. Even the authority of the Dragon King, which had no clue before, has now found a solution. Feeding the authority to Xia Mi is undoubtedly the way to maximize their profits.
Lu Mingze had no objection to Su Mo's choice. Anyway, Su Mo's method would not harm his pet's life.
"After swallowing its authority, that guy will be able to master the alchemy of life creation. You can also learn this skill with the help of a mask, which is much faster than me teaching it myself."
Lu Mingze continued.
"Life creation..."
Su Mo lowered his head and glanced at the suitcase.
Zero on the side is also staring at this thing, and seems to have vaguely guessed that the king of ocean and water contained in it is the black snake in the Black Swan Harbor in the past. To her, this thing is also a familiar one.
"Speaking of which, Xia Mi..."
Su Mo suddenly turned his head and looked at the girl on the side.
"What's wrong?"
Miss Xia Mi blinked and looked at him doubtfully.
"Among the four great monarchs, the other dragon kings can master the alchemy corresponding to their own authority, why can't you be the only one?"
Su Mo asked bluntly.
Although Xia Mi got past it before because it was too difficult, but now thinking about it, only one of the four monarchs has not mastered this type of alchemy. It cannot be said that opening up space is more difficult than reversing time, right?
Fenrir is a retarded person, so you can't blame him, but Xia Mi...
"What do you mean I can't do it? Are you looking down on me?"
Miss Xia Mi stared at Su Mo dissatisfied.
Even Su Mo can't look down on her so much. Do you believe she bites people?
"Yes!"
Su Mo nodded, he was indeed looking down on Miss Xia Mi in all aspects.
"I knew you didn't dare...huh? What did you say?"
Miss Xia Mi was stunned and almost didn't react.
"Nothing, I said you are good at it."
Su Mo immediately shook his head, as if what he just said was not his.
"Do you think I will believe your lies?"
Xia Mi immediately gritted his teeth and came forward dissatisfied.
Before she spoke to Su Mo, Lu Mingze interrupted her action at the right time.
"Ahem! Regarding the creation of life, Su Mo, you'd better master it quickly, at least before Odin resurrects the White King."
"Why do you say that? Is there anything special about this alchemy?"
Su Mo said doubtfully.
Life Creation, as the name suggests, is an alchemy that can be used to create life. It was this power that the Black King used when he split the White King and the Four Lords.
However, simple life creation is not enough to break the fertility restrictions set by the Black King on the four monarchs. Therefore, even Odin, who has mastered this alchemy, needs to combine science to lift the restrictions.
Regardless of this point, this alchemy is mainly used to repair injuries and create a living body.
Odin's Legion of Heroes is a body that Odin created on the spot based on the souls of Deadpools, so these Deadpools will never die and will always be imprisoned under Odin's command.
For Su Mo, Life Creation has another purpose, which is to maintain the tacit understanding between them and the vice-principal.
The high degree of cooperation between the vice-principal and Fingel was based on the fact that Su Mo would help them resurrect their important people.
But none of these uses were worth worrying about for Su Mo. He didn't understand why Lu Mingze said this.
Hearing Su Mo say this, Lu Mingze smiled slightly.
"This is the last step on the road to becoming a god. You must have been stuck at this point for a while, right?"
"...You mean, this alchemy can help me cross the final ladder?"
Realizing his subtext, Su Mo immediately showed a surprised expression.
The basic way to open the road to becoming a god is to explode blood, but after Su Mo crossed the critical blood limit, this technique had no effect on him, even if he exploded blood four times.
Because, his dragon blood accumulation has already reached the limit of LV5, and there is no way to upgrade it.
After that, he tried to absorb the blood of other dragons and wanted to raise his dragon blood level to LV6, which is the dragon king's statistics.
However, even though he tried to absorb the blood of Xia Mi, who had now been promoted to the divine realm, his dragon blood level was not improved at all.
It is obvious that his physical fitness is no less than that of the humanoid pure-blood dragon king, but there seems to be a gap between the hybrid and pure-blood dragons in this last bit of experience, and they are completely unable to break through.
In this case, Su Mo analyzed two ways to cross the chasm. One was to swallow a dragon bone cross and directly transform his body into a dragon king. The other was to cross the chasm through the road of becoming a god and relying on five degrees of violent blood.
Road obstacles.
He was more inclined to the latter, but the fifth degree of bloodshed was more difficult than the previous four combined. Even Su Mo did not try it easily.
I originally wanted to ask Lu Mingze, but I didn't expect that Lu Mingze had already thought of this question.
"Life Creation allows you to have deeper control over the birth and growth of life. By learning this alchemy, you can regulate the hormones in your body, thereby fully controlling your body, and learn tricks such as accelerating healing."
"But this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that you will be able to truly master [cocooning], truly learn how to control the expression of genes, and how to learn the environment's interference skills on the selective expression of genes... even
, you can also structurally reorganize the genes in your body, allowing them to be arranged and combined, as well as deleted and selected.”
As the master of life creation, Lu Mingze skillfully introduced the power of this alchemical kingdom.
Just as the Nibelung Roots are the manifestation of "Space Opening" in the Dragon King, cocooning is also the manifestation of "Life Creation" in the Dragon King.
"What does this have to do with the road to becoming a god?"
Su Mo asked doubtfully.
Faced with this question, Lu Mingze did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically.
"What do you think is the difference between the genes in your body now and those of the Dragon King?"
"...There seems to be no essential difference, it's just that I have more human parts, so I'm not pure?"
Su Mo thought for a few seconds and said.
"Is this really the difference?"
Lu Mingze pointed at Xia Mi.
"Obviously she can transform into a human body, which means she has both human and dragon genes. Why is she still a pure-blooded dragon?"
"Her blood has been injected into your body. It stands to reason that you have all her genes. You also have the genes of the third generation of the White King. In terms of quantity, you have more dragon genes than the Dragon King. Why do you
Or a mixed race?”
Hearing this series of questions, Su Mo was slightly startled, and then he realized this problem.
Yes, why does a pure-blood dragon king absorb the genes of other creatures and still become a pure-blood dragon king? Even if a mixed-blood species absorbs the genes of a complete dragon king, it is still a mixed-blood species? Unless what he swallows is the dragon bone cross, or the fetal blood of the dragon king, after passing
After hatching, it transforms into a pure blood dragon.
Wait...hatch!
Su Mo had a flash of inspiration and immediately realized something.
"You mean, what I need to do now is not to continue to absorb the blood of other dragons, but to express all the dragon genes in my body?"
The process of hatching is the process of re-growth of life, and it is also the process of fully expressing the genes added later in the body. Most of the dragon blood Su Mo ingested only increased the physical strength and did not fully express it, so no matter how much dragon blood was added, the
Even the intake of blood cannot continue to improve the dragon blood level.
"It can be said that, however, there is a more important step to select and combine."
Lu Mingze nodded and continued.
"For example, you are now a modified car that has a sports car engine, but carries bicycle tires. The sports car tires and bicycle parts are hung on the roof. You have all the parts of the sports car and the bicycle, but these parts are mixed and matched.
of."
"You need to disassemble and reassemble these parts, assemble the sports car, and then stuff the folding bicycle into the trunk. Then you can use the human form if you want, and the dragon form if you want."
The sign of dragon blood level 6 is that it can give birth to a huge dragon body like Fenrir.
Su Mo's accumulation of dragon blood is actually enough. What limits him is the expression of these genes. He only needs to piece together the fragments of these dragon genes into a complete pure-blood dragon, and then follow the instructions of the pure-blood dragon.
Development method: After hatching once, you can reach the realm of the Dragon King.
From this point of view, the last step on the road to becoming a god is to use will to control the expression of dragon blood and allow the dragon blood to completely transform one's body.
Otherwise, if you want to forcefully drive a sports car using bicycle tires by will, even if you succeed, you will still have to burn your life.
And [Life Creation] is something like an auxiliary textbook. As long as Su Mo masters this power, he can clearly grasp the genetic differences between pure blood dragons and humans, and successfully transform himself into a pure blood dragon.
