499 Shadow of the Black King, Crimson Tide, Hatched Fenrir
Chapter 500 The Black King’s Shadow, Red Tide, and Hatched Fenrir
After listening to Lu Mingze's explanation, Su Mo finally had a clue about the completion of the road to becoming a god and the improvement of dragon blood.
As long as he crosses this step, his strength will officially reach the Dragon King level and move towards the God's Domain level.
Both Odin and the Black King are at least gods-level enemies.
"The mastery of life creation can only be achieved after Xia Mi swallows the authority."
Su Mo glanced at the girl next to him, and then turned his attention to Lu Mingze.
"However, I still need your help with Concept Arms."
During the time when Xia Mi was obsessed with Su Mo, even Xia Mi managed to swallow up the power of Constantine and perfect the authority of the Fire God Surtur. Naturally, Su Mo did not stand still.
Relying on the sharing of masks, Su Mo quickly became familiar with the skill of space opening, and successfully simulated it using his exclusive word spirit.
After that, under the step-by-step guidance of Teacher Xia Mi, Su Mo also gradually mastered the technique of how to achieve space opening without using the exclusive power of speech spirit, and fixed it as a genuine skill that he mastered.
After [Spiritual Recasting], he mastered the alchemy kingdom called [Space Opening].
Although it is still inferior to Odin and the God of Death Hela in terms of power scale and usage skills, it is also a genuine LV6 level skill.
Now, [Life Creation] can only be learned after he has stripped away the authority of the King of Ocean and Water. For Su Mo, this kind of thing will not take too long, but before that, he still wants to learn [Concept Arms] first.
He can use his exclusive word spirit to simulate [Conceptual Arms], but the method used is still different from the real [Conceptual Arms].
Based on his experience in learning [Space Opening], he still needs a teacher to explain it, so that the learning speed will be faster.
"Conceptual weapons? No problem!"
Naturally, Lu Mingze would not refuse this request.
"With your exclusive word spirit, you have actually learned most of the skills to master [Conceptual Arms]. You are just a little unfamiliar with adding fields. I will give you a reminder and you will be able to master it completely. It just so happens that these two days are weekends, brother
This holiday should be enough time for you."
Lu Mingze could only admire Su Mo's learning ability.
Even if power can be shared through masks, it is still almost impossible to quickly learn Dragon King level power just like this.
Su Mo's exclusive word spirit and [Conceptual Arms] are incomparable, and with just a little guidance, he can completely master this alchemical kingdom.
It is said that Odin is a rare genius among the eight kings, but he also studied for countless years, and under the personal supervision of the Black King, he mastered so many alchemical kingdoms.
Su Mo, on the other hand, has grown from an ordinary person to what he is now in just about two months. With his learning speed, he can probably surpass Odin.
"Thank you!"
Su Mo thanked him, then lowered his head to look at the egg of the King of Ocean and Water in front of him. The golden color in his eyes ignited, and he directly activated his exclusive word spirit.
After a brief inspection, Su Mo spoke.
"The life force of this King of Ocean and Water seems to have been sacrificed a little too much. Although the Dragon King's authority has not been damaged, in its current state, once its authority is stripped away, it will immediately cocoon and it will take a long time to recover.
come over."
Unlike Fenrir in his heyday, and Norton and Constantine who were in normal condition, the King of Ocean and Water in front of him was obviously about to be drained dry by the White King.
If it were not the king of ocean and water with the strongest vitality, but another dragon king, I'm afraid it wouldn't be able to hold on now.
Once the authority over the ocean and life is stripped away and the restoration of authority is lost, although the dragon king will not die suddenly on the spot, it will at least be weak for a long time. Even if enough dragon blood is replenished, it will take enough time to return to normal.
Hearing this, Lu Mingze frowned slightly and said firmly.
"No, the authority must be stripped away as soon as possible, without delaying your improvement in strength."
It was clear that he was so looking forward to meeting his pet just now, but when it came to the actual plan, he made a very decisive choice.
For him, after all, it is his covenant with Su Mo, that is, his brother's future that is more important.
However, Lu Mingze was not the type to abandon his own people easily.
"Will stripping it of authority cause any irreversible harm to it?"
He asked Su Mo.
He didn't know much about Su Mo's exclusive word spirit effect.
Zero also looked over nervously. She was also a little concerned about this friend who was willing to play with her when she was a child.
"of course not."
Su Mo immediately shook his head.
"It's just that after the power is stripped away, its remaining vitality will not be enough to maintain normal activities, and it will need to enter a deep sleep. If it sleeps in a cocoon, it may take hundreds of years to repair itself before it wakes up."
Hundreds of years are nothing to dragons.
If it can survive the end of the world smoothly, Lu Mingze doesn't mind waiting a few hundred more years. If not, there's no point in waking it up.
Just when Lu Mingze was about to express his agreement, among everyone present, except for the half-dead King of Ocean and Water, the Dragon King, who had studied cocooning the most, spoke up.
"Actually, there is another option, which is to bury its cocoon in any living being to form a parasitic state of suspended animation."
"Suspended animation?"
Everyone looked at the girl.
"Um."
Miss Xia Mi nodded and talked eloquently in her professional field.
"Just like the dragon eggs lodged in Angers body, the parasitic dragon eggs will keep life activities to a minimum, while retaining some of their perception of the outside world and having the possibility of waking up at any time."
"Although the state of suspended animation does not have the self-healing ability like deep sleep, it can still maintain responses to external stimuli. When we completely have complete authority over the ocean and water, we can directly help it hatch with the help of external forces, without waiting for a few seconds.
century."
If deep sleep is self-healing, suspended animation is simply hanging one's life.
Not counting external forces, the former method is naturally more effective at curing the root cause. However, considering that the end of the world is only a few years away, if Su Mo and his side can defeat the Black King, they will also have the power to awaken the King of Ocean and Water. If Su Mo
If Mo's side loses, the King of Ocean and Water will not survive.
Judging from this, feigning death will make it easier to wake him up with external force later.
Lu Mingze quickly adopted Miss Xia Mi's opinion.
In other aspects, this female dragon is unreliable, but in terms of cocooning, Xia Mi's accomplishments may not be inferior to that of the King of Ocean and Water.
So the question is, what creatures are suitable to be hosted by the King of Ocean and Water?
When this question flashed through everyone's minds at the same time.
"Woof woof!"
Outside the living room, a dog barked suddenly.
Within a few seconds, two plump Siamese cats ran over gracefully from outside and rubbed the bodies of Su Mo and Lu Mingze in turn.
The two cats still remembered their owners and Su Mo who had fed them.
After the two cats disliked the water stains on the floor and jumped on the sofa, Lu Mingze lifted the backs of the two Siamese cats' necks and showed disgust.
"It is said that Siamese cats are mysterious cat spirits. I am really sad to see you looking so fat and stupid..."
After sighing, he looked back at Xia Mi and asked.
"The parasitism of dragon eggs, I remember, does not harm the body of life, right?"
"Well, not only is there no harm, it can even help improve the bloodline of life, allowing it to have a long life and the baptism of dragon blood."
Xia Mi added.
Angers is an excellent example. As a host of dragon eggs, age and the side effects of violent blood have no effect on him. Even if Li Wuyue's eggs are now swallowed by Odin, if Angers can wake up
, he can still maintain his original vitality.
"Improve the bloodline, I wonder if it can improve the body shape..."
After muttering like this, Lu Mingze threw the sister, Xiaoniaoyou, the Siamese cat in his hand, directly to Su Mo.
"Then I'll leave them to you."
The ones here refer to the King of Ocean and Water and the female cat Birdie.
"no problem!"
Su Mo caught the cat with one hand.
Being hurriedly thrown out by her master, Xiaoniao You didn't panic. After being caught by Su Mo, she immediately climbed up Su Mo's arm and onto his shoulder, and finally put her paws on Su Mo's hair, posing like a
The look of a proud queen.
Although a bit fat, it is indeed very flexible.
"So, the boss plans to raise the Dragon King into a cat?"
Looking at this fat Siamese cat, Mai Jutoku helplessly covered her face.
"I always feel stupid for being afraid of the Dragon King's power before!"
"What's this!"
Su Enxi patted Jiude Mai's shoulder nonchalantly.
She was not surprised by the boss's whimsical idea, because she had already seen something even more surprising when she arrived here in advance.
"——There are people here who raise dragon kings as dogs!"
On the side, Miss Xia Mi suddenly became unhappy when she saw that a mere cat had the guts to sit on Su Mo's shoulder, looking down on her and licking its paws with an air of arrogance.
She directly grabbed Xiaoniao You by the back of his neck and lifted it onto the sofa. Then she patted Su Mo on the shoulder and educated the cat.
"This is my seat, you are not allowed to sit on it!"
"Meow?"
Xiaoniaoyou tilted his head and squatted on the armrest of the sofa, as if looking at the idiot.
"It's no use meow, this is my exclusive place, do you hear me?"
Miss Xia Mi repeated patiently and issued a threat.
"If you continue to sit down, I won't give you dried fish to eat in the future!"
"Meow meow meow!"
As if he understood Xia Mi's words, Xiao Niaoyu began to protest.
The younger brother who was lying in front of Lu Mingze behind him heard his sister's voice and immediately rushed over. He kept meowing and circling around Xia Mi, as if to support his sister.
Seeing that these two cats actually dared to quarrel with her, Miss Xia Mi puffed up her cheeks unconvinced, feeling that she could not lose to the other party.
Without waiting for her to continue speaking.
"Woof woof woof!"
A quick dog bark sounded.
Naturally, the person who shouted this in public could not be Xia Mi, but a black, cute-looking little native dog.
The puppy stood directly in front of Xia Mi, seeming to want to help Xia Mi, and started quarreling with the Siamese cat brother opposite.
With the size of a puppy and its sharp teeth, it is not difficult to deal with the two cats in front of you.
However, even though it had the advantage of size, it did not do this. It even seemed a little afraid of the two cats. It was just because it wanted to protect Xia Mi that it mustered up the courage to stand up and confront each other.
"Woof woof woof!"
"Meow meow meow!"
The Siamese cat brother opposite was also a coward. The cat and the dog started barking at each other in a bluffing manner, without even taking a step closer to each other for a long time.
Looking at the two useless brothers spraying each other at their feet, the female dragon and the female cat shook their heads at the same time.
The dragon and the cat looked at each other. For the first moment, they felt a little sympathetic to each other, but soon their eyes became sharp.
The stupid younger brother has already been pinched, so as the older sister, it is natural for me to decide the winner.
Just when the atmosphere among them became tense and the battle was about to break out.
"Boom!" "Boom!"
Su Mo and Ling hit Yilong and Mao on the heads with their swords at the same time.
"Su Mo~Why did you hit me?"
Miss Xia Mi covered her head and stared at Su Mo aggrievedly.
"A dragon king who is at the level of a god is actually competing with a cat. Where did you come from?"
Su Mo complained helplessly.
Although it is true that Miss Xia Mi is cute when she quarrels with a cat with a serious look on her face, but she will not make the cat jealous no matter what, right?
In a quarrel with a cat, even if you win, it will be disgraceful, and with Miss Xia Mi's eloquence, you may lose... After all, no one can defeat a simple "meow meow".
"It's obviously the cat's fault for letting it snatch my things!"
Miss Xia Mi said confidently.
"Even a cat can steal your things, doesn't it mean you are too good at it?"
Su Mo asked back.
"It seems to make sense, but it also seems a little unreasonable..."
Xia Mi was stunned for a moment. After thinking for two seconds, he suddenly remembered something.
"Wait! Counting the previous time, is this the second time today that you have criticized me? Su Mo, have you looked down on me more and more recently? Although you are usually a little disrespectful to me, but these days it seems
Disrespect is occurring more frequently.”
Miss Xia Mi showed a suspicious expression.
Seeing her like this, in order to protect Miss Xia Mi's self-esteem, Su Mo did not let her continue to speculate, but took the initiative to admit defeat.
"Well, it's my fault, I should support you unconditionally!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Mi's eyes lit up and he immediately gave up thinking.
"Su Mo, you said it was your fault. In other words, you admit that you need to apologize to me, no matter what I do to you, right?"
In a way that is very consistent with the local cultural characteristics of Japan, Miss Natsumi came over with a sly smile on her face.
Naturally, Su Mo would not refuse her approach.
then--
"Chirp~"
Like all girls in love, Miss Xia Mi has a special liking for the act of kissing.
Although Su Mo wanted to tell Xia Mi that she didn't need to make excuses if she wanted to do this, but considering that after saying this, Xia Mi would probably be able to pester him so that he couldn't do anything else for at least a year, he still gave up.
Got this idea.
It doesn't matter at other times, right now I have to deal with Odin, so I don't have that much free time.
So, under Eriki's envious eyes, Zero's calm gaze, and Nono's heartbroken gaze, Miss Xia Mi wiped her mouth with satisfaction.
After being satisfied with Su Mo, Xia Mi no longer had any intention of quarreling with the cat.
Glancing at the puppy at his feet, which had stopped arguing with the cat and was still breathing heavily, Xia Mi picked up the back of its neck wordlessly and looked at her hands with the same look Su Mo had when he looked at her.
Get this little native dog.
"So, even if he is reincarnated, shouldn't Fenrir have the strength of the next generation? Why would he be afraid of an ordinary cat? Fenrir, why are you such a bad guy?"
After hearing this, everyone looked at the God-level dragon king who was arguing with the cat strangely, and fell silent.
Miss Xia Mi didn't notice everyone's looks, but continued to stare at her brother with the same eyes as Su Mo's.
Yes, the little native dog in her hand was the result of Fenrir's hatching.
To be precise, it is the result of Fenrir's mimicry. Its true form is still a pure blood dragon.
Two days ago, Fenrir was successfully hatched. After inspection, it was found that there was no problem with the power in its body. It was even much stronger than the next generation Norton, but it had not fully grown.
However, even re-hatching could not solve his intellectual disability. In the past two days, apart from interacting with Sumo Xia Mi, he has been running behind the two Siamese cats, seemingly trying to make new friends.
If Miss Xia Mi hadn't quarreled with the cat, he probably wouldn't have faced off against the cat.
At this moment, having been caught by Xia Mi, Fenrir's eyes were very innocent.
It has always been such a coward. Unless Xia Mi's safety is threatened, it will not go berserk. Ordinary people are often shocked by Fenrir's huge dragon body at the first sight, so that they cannot believe that this big guy is actually bigger than a cat.
Both cats and dogs are timid.
Hearing Xia Mi's inquiry, Su Mo complained in his heart: Is it possible that "Cai" is the authority of your earth and mountain system?
But he didn't say it after all, but thought of something.
"Speaking of which, it doesn't seem difficult for Fenrir to grow up. Aren't there many dragon blood subspecies in the place we just visited?"
"You mean, Jiyuan?"
Xia Mi immediately understood what Su Mo meant.
Deep in the abyss is the former Takamama Plain, which contains an entire ecosystem of dragon subspecies. This is the food reserved for the White King. Now that the White King is no longer in Takamama Plains, can we steal some of this food to supplement Fenrir?
Replenish the body?
At least let it beat a cat!
"Um."
Su Mo nodded.
In fact, if time does not allow, letting the King of Ocean and Water absorb these dragon blood subspecies can also speed up its recovery.
"etc!"
After hearing the conversation between the two, Lu Mingze suddenly interrupted.
"There is no problem if you want to feed Fenrir with the things in the Abyss, but you need to be extra careful about one thing."
Upon hearing this, Su Mo and Xia Mi looked at each other and then asked.
"You mean... red tide?"
"That's right!"
Lu Mingze said with a very serious expression.
"In this operation, no matter which sea area you are in, once you observe red tide, you must leave as soon as possible!"
Hearing Lu Mingze say this so seriously again, Su Mo showed a thoughtful expression.
In fact, Lu Mingze had already given such a reminder before going deep into the Abyss to catch the eggs of the King of Ocean and Water. At that time, Su Mo and Xia Mi did not ask in detail, but just wrote down this reminder for the sake of
Use space only when it is safe to open up a direct route to the abyss.
Unexpectedly, Lu Mingze mentioned this point again.
"So, why do you care so much about this?"
Miss Xia Mi asked doubtfully.
She knows that the red tide phenomenon is an abnormal phenomenon in sea water caused by the concentrated proliferation of plankton in the ocean. Excessive nutrients will cause algae to multiply wildly and cause the water to change color.
However, is there anything special about this natural phenomenon that we should be wary of?
"Look!"
Lu Mingze directly handed over a newspaper, which was the international news this morning. In the corner of the news page, there was a mention of a red tide phenomenon that broke out in the Arctic Ocean. The overwhelming red tide dyed the ocean bright red, like the Red Sea.
This largest red tide in history even crossed the Bering Strait and reached the Pacific Ocean along with the ocean currents.
The report ended here. Miss Xia Mi was a little confused, but Su Mo realized something.
"You mean, this has something to do with the Black King?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes widened.
