This white-haired monkey was unlucky when it met Raymond.
Not only did he watch the fruit he had tasted disappear before his eyes, but his treasured long sword was also snatched away, and now even its small body was about to become a test subject for some unscrupulous plague doctor.
But for Raymond, it was a lucky day.
After the monkey was knocked unconscious, the flame streamer on the surface of the sword also disappeared, showing a red matte color. It felt warm and heavy in the hand. A closer look showed that there was a layer of dark lines like cherry blossoms on the blade.
Probably because it had been left in the high temperature of the volcano for too long, everything including the handle and the rope were melted by the high temperature, leaving only the bare blade.
Raymond held the long red sword, glanced at the name of the sword, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.
This sword name...he has heard of it!
【Sakura】
Attack:0-265
Comes with special effects:
[Flowing Fire] Infusing fire attribute energy, the sword is like flowing fire, with 15% additional burning damage;
【Feng Rui】Feng Rui 7;
【Destroy】Armor Break 2;
【Split】Penetrate 2;
Detailed explanation: The blade is three feet, six inches and four inches long, with a curvature of nine points; one of the two famous swords "Frost Fire";
The cherry sparrow is a strange bird in the world of navigation that can spit flames and fly extremely fast. This bird likes to fly at night. When it soars, its tail feathers pass by and condense small sparks that extinguish in an instant, like a stream of red light.
"It's actually this sword..."
Raymond also didn't expect that the long sword was actually the famous weapon that had been missing in the game for many years.
This sword has a great origin, it is the companion sword of "Frost Flower".
It is said that the number one swordsmith in the Black Sea, "Shiro Nagaiwa", received two pieces of meteorite iron, one cold and one hot. He later used ancient methods to forge two sword handles and named them "Frost Flower" and "Sakura Bird".
Once these two strange long swords appeared in the world, they attracted many swordsmen to pursue them. They also represent the pinnacle of Black Sea sword-making skills and are known as the "double masterpiece of frost and fire".
"Frost Flower" changed hands several times, and finally fell into the hands of the swordsman Sodros, but "Sakura" disappeared decades ago.
In the game, Raymond once received this endless sword-hunting mission.
"I didn't expect that this famous long sword, which had been missing for so many years, would actually fall into the crater of the volcano. No wonder so many players in the game failed to find the sword and complete the mission. It is probably a treasure collected by the lava dragon..."
Raymond felt a little emotional. When he saw this sword, he immediately thought of his deceased mentor.
"Frost Flower" was buried with the blind old man and was annihilated two years ago. The two are no longer together, and only this "Sakura Bird" is left in the world.
"Whether it's a coincidence or destiny. After today, you can follow me and turn Tianlan King upside down, and become famous throughout the Black Sea..."
He sighed in his heart and gently stroked the red sword blade, as if caressing his closest partner.
His soft chant seemed to have caused a slight resonance in this famous long sword, and the cherry blossom pattern on the sword body faintly flashed red for a moment.
Zhengchou didn't have a good sword at hand, and now this [Sakura] comes, which can be regarded as an unexpected surprise.
Raymond put away the red sword and took out the red fruit from the package.
If he had read correctly, the system showed that this fruit should still have a period of decay.
As expected, this is still a spiritual fruit that can only be taken for a limited time.
[Fire Dragon Fury Fruit]
Corruption time 472 seconds
Detailed explanation: The rare treasures of heaven and earth, watered by dragon's blood, and the fire element form a nourishing spiritual fruit; after taking it, the upper limit of the infuriating value will be increased by 150* (10-extraordinary level); the infuriating value will be increased for each level of extraordinary level below sequence 5.
The upper limit is 300*extraordinary level, adaptively increasing the current upper limit of Qi value by 50%; Qi is converted into fire attribute, and attacks carry 5% fire element burning damage; flame resistance is 10%; continuous expansion of the eight meridians, Qi
Running speed (100-550)%; limit one serving; if taken by fire attribute monsters, there is a chance to obtain bloodline advancement;
"The properties of this fruit are actually so powerful!"
Raymond looked at the strange fruit in his hand, which had the same shape as a ripe persimmon, with a bright light in his eyes.
This thing is simply a treasure tailor-made for him!
I just said that the cultivation of Qi was too slow and had shortcomings, but now this fruit immediately makes up for this huge shortcoming.
"This means that if I take this fruit, I can immediately increase the upper limit of the true energy value by 1200... If I advance to sequence 7, I can also increase the current upper limit of the true energy value by 90050%. With the current 2400
Calculated from the lowest base, it will increase the infuriating value by at least 2100 points. By the time I reach Sequence 7, my minimum infuriating upper limit will be nearly 5,000!"
Raymond looked at the properties of the fruit carefully and made a rough estimate in his mind of how much increase in Qi this thing could bring to him.
He has been practicing normally for more than two years, and now his total Qi value is only at the upper limit of 1,200.
If you take this fruit, your health will be doubled immediately.
One fruit is worth years of hard work, how can he not be surprised?
And the fruit’s follow-up potential is even greater!
The speed of infuriating energy will directly affect the skill release speed, cooling recovery time, movement speed... This is a very important hidden attribute!
The attribute of "expanding the eight meridians" is like opening up the two meridians of Ren and Du, making practicing Qi more effective with half the effort.
Raymond's Qi veins are now like the intestines of a sheep. After swallowing this spiritual fruit, he will immediately become a prosperous person.
The highway has been repaired, and the good skills can soar into the sky. Then go to Tianlan Royal Academy to get the advanced sword skill "Wind Sword Technique" left by Sodros.
Shouldn't it soar?
During Sequence 8, he can practice crazily and break through the upper limit of his Qi value as much as possible. When he advances to Sequence 7, his Qi value will increase by an additional 50% like a snowball!
Based on this calculation, it is very likely that he will reach the 10,000 Qi value threshold for comprehending the "Six-Armed Yama" at Sequence 7, or at the latest Sequence 6!
This is simply the difference between a motorcycle engine and a fighter jet engine in an instant!
He was forced into such a panic by [Rock Bear] White in the ruins before that he almost lost his life. The reason was not because of his skills, but more because of the huge gap in innate energy due to the gap in rank.
Now that I have taken this fruit, if I really want to meet that extraordinary person with professional restraint again, even if I can't defeat him, I will still have the ability to protect myself!
"No wonder the evil dragon couldn't forget this fruit even before he died... In terms of the amount of energy gain that can be gained by a supernatural person, this 'violent energy fruit' is comparable to the effectiveness of ordinary devil fruits!"
At this moment, Raymond beamed with joy.
He felt that he had finally begun to break away from the hat of being a non-chief, and was going more and more smoothly on the road of European emperor.
Originally, this time I just stopped by Niguel Volcano to try my luck... Unexpectedly, I randomly teamed up with others to explore a ruins, and unearthed one of the eight major temples of Niguel, the "Temple of the Mountain Turtle", which is still in the volcano.
He found a spiritual fruit that he didn't have much hope for in the first place, and even got a useful weapon "Sakura".
Of course, it also comes with an iron-headed monkey that may be a rare species.
"Sure enough, a horse won't get fat without night grass, and a man won't get rich without windfall!"
At this moment, Raymond just sighed in his heart, and suddenly felt the ground shake slightly.
Looking down carefully, the magma pool in the crater is becoming more and more restless, and the bubbles are boiling more and more violently.
This is a sign that the volcano is about to erupt and the "volcano turtle" will wake up.
He didn't dare to delay, swallowed the fruit in one gulp, bit it with his teeth, and his mouth was full of juice, as if he were drinking from a burning knife. The juice was scalding along the esophagus and entered his abdomen.
After a while, the whole body felt hot and sweaty, and the fiery medicinal power began to slowly penetrate into the meridians.
Looking again, the upper limit of the Chi value continued to skyrocket, and finally stayed at the astonishing value of 2400!
"I originally wanted to see if the evil dragon had any other treasures hidden down there, but it seems I don't have time..."
Raymond estimated the time and didn't dare to delay any longer. He turned around and rushed out of the crater.
He rushed to the boat, transformed into his demon form, and rowed the boat at full speed to escape from the volcanic island. If the wood pulp hadn't been unable to withstand the excessive force, he would have probably floated the wooden boat like a speedboat.
...
The boat made a lot of noise, drawing a white wave on the sea.
Raymond finally caught up with the Elijah brother and sister who were rowing slowly before the volcano erupted.
He jumped on the ship and said in surprise: "Huh? Why are you still here?"
Ilya spread his hands and said calmly: "No matter how fast you row, you can't get out of this archipelago sea area. Why don't I just wait for you."
"..."
Listening to this girl's relaxed tone, Raymond thought that she should have a way to deal with it, and his heart gradually calmed down.
The evil spirit of Raymond in his demonic state was revealed. He had transformed into this face before and killed dozens of people from the Wind Wolf Mercenary Group.
Matthew was a little frightened looking at the state of his green face and fangs, and his expression was slightly unnatural.
He turned to look at the monkey with burned hair that was twisting in Raymond's hand. He was also very curious and asked: "Hey...Brother Nicholas, where did you catch such a monkey?"
"I met it at the crater and brought it back with me."
With that said, Raymond slowly transformed back into his human form and took a few deep breaths.
In addition to the two brothers and sisters, there was also an angry Captain Greed lying on the boat. He had been punched in the chest by White before, and his mail armor had been dented, and his chest was stained with large amounts of blood. He was unconscious, look.
It hurt me badly.
Raymond glanced at it and said nothing. He was originally worried that Gle's survival would reveal some secrets, but thinking that Ilya, the high priest, was by his side, he naturally didn't need to worry about these things.
“It’s actually the abyss creature ‘Fire Spirit Iron Bone Monkey’?”
Elijah was obviously more interested in the monkey than Matthew.
She turned the fainted monkey over and over, and naturally recognized the monkey's origin, and said in surprise: "This abyssal species is not extinct yet."
After a pause, she showed a serious expression and asked: "Uncle, are you going to take this monkey back to eat?"
"..."
What's wrong with this girl's brain?
Raymond's face twitched slightly, and he asked smoothly: "Is this kind of monkey delicious?"
"Yeah! It's super delicious..."
Elijah looked forward to it, swallowed his saliva, and said excitedly: "In the past, this was the top ingredient offered to the gods. It is extremely delicious... steamed monkey brains, slow-cooked iron bones, crunchy and crispy!"
Hearing her description made Raymond himself salivate a little.
And just at this time,
The poor monkey's eyelids raised slightly, as if he was about to wake up from his coma.
But when he heard this, he immediately turned pale with fright and screamed.
Oh my god, it's terrible!
I want to go back to the abyss, the human world is too terrifying!
"Bang!"
Before it could struggle and jump out of the boat, it was hit hard on the head by a sap, and the world was spinning in an instant, and it fainted again.
"Ouch, it fainted again!"
Ilya smiled and poked the monkey's head with his finger, as if he had seen a fragrant charcoal-roasted black monkey.
Her foodie nature could no longer hold back any longer, and she eagerly said, "Uncle, why don't we find a place to stew it in a pot and try it first? What if it's really as delicious as the legend says... Zhiliu... You can
Can’t eat alone!”
"I'll take it back to the doctor first to see if it's useful..."
Raymond looked at this greedy girl and twitched his face helplessly. With her greedy look, how could she have any of the mysterious character of the High Priest of Knicks?
Finally, he compromised and said in deep thought: "Well...if it doesn't work, let's just stew it!"
As he said that, Raymond's eyes flashed with the same look of expectation.
What does the delicious food offered to the gods taste like? He also remembered that it seemed that this kind of food was recorded in the [Recipe for Sacrifice to the Gods].
...
Hearing this,
Matthew looked at his sister with a slightly strange expression, and after a while, he looked at Raymond again.
He always felt that the two of them felt much closer after they came out of the ruins. Even his sister was closer to Brother Nicholas than to his brother?
Finally, he couldn't help but ask: "Hey, Ilya, did something happen to you and Brother Nicholas in the ruins? Why do I think you acted weird after you came out?"
Ilya thought of everything that happened in the temple, and a hint of imperceptible shame flashed in his crystal eyes.
She deliberately kept a straight face and shouted: "Brother! You'd better hold on to the boat. The volcano is about to erupt. If you fall into the sea, no one will save you!"
As she said this, she looked like she was protecting the treasure and held the monkey's arm, fearing that the boat would capsize and the delicious food would escape.
"Brother, my status...is not as good as that of a monkey?"
Hearing this, Matthew's fat face trembled, and he looked hopeless.
Ilya said seriously: "Brother! Ever since I was a child, when have I not given something to you when I was looking for something to eat? Otherwise, you would have grown so fat? If this monkey is stewed, you will have a share, right? If you want to run away, no one else will.
Eat it!"
"..."
Matthew looked down at his big belly and said faintly: "So, I should be thanking you for being so fat?"
Seeing the brother and sister falling in love and killing each other, Raymond also rubbed his eyebrows and smiled softly.
Just then,
Suddenly the sea surface stirred up, as if there was an earthquake under the sea, and the tremors were getting stronger and stronger.
Taking a closer look, billowing black smoke suddenly appeared from the Niguel Crater in the distance.
Ilya excitedly pointed at the volcano and exclaimed: "Look, the volcano is about to erupt!"
As soon as he finished speaking,
There was a loud "bang", and the fiery red magma burst into the sky like a burst water pipe.
After a while, the strong smell of sulfur spread in the air, and like hail falling from the sky, volcanic ash the size of soybeans poured down...
Birds in the dense forest of the island flew away in large numbers, and all the giant sea beasts that were originally lurking on the bottom of the sea instinctively sensed the crisis and appeared in horror to escape from the volcanic area...
Ilya exclaimed: "Brother, hold on tight! The big turtle is about to wake up...Uncle, please control the direction of the boat and paddle to the left. We have to avoid the island..."
The movement is getting louder and louder. At first it was just rolling waves like a tidal wave, but now it can be seen with the naked eye that the sea surface is tilting! It seems that something huge is about to emerge from the sea, and the sea water is moving towards the Niguel volcano.
The center is fading rapidly in all directions...
This small boat carrying four people and one monkey was swaying in the huge waves, as if it was about to be capsized by the waves at any time.
Raymond was frightened for a while.
Even extraordinary beings are instinctively afraid of such devastating disasters.
"Wow..."
Ilya on the bow of the boat screamed excitedly, his hair was blown by the wind, and the totem on the back of his neck also shone faintly.
The boat slid rapidly down the waves like a roller coaster. The boat dropped nearly a kilometer at an angle of almost 90 degrees to the sea level.
"Bang~"
If it hadn't been cushioned by the sudden wave at the end, the boat would have been smashed to pieces by the waves.
Finally, the boat fell smoothly into the sea.
In a blink of an eye,
The giant tortoise above him that had been sleeping for thousands of years slowly stood up.
The world can clearly see what it looks like.
"This... is too exaggerated!"
Raymond was stunned and didn't know how to describe his shocked mood at this moment.
This was the first time he had seen such a large creature with his own eyes. The tall figure that covered the sky instantly blocked all the sunlight above his head. The four turtle legs were like mountain peaks, each one several miles in diameter. There were many mountains on the back of the turtle.
It's like there's a barb on its back. The majestic Niguel volcano is still erupting at this moment...
Raymond looked familiar at the mountainous mountains on the back of the giant turtle.
Thinking about it for a moment,
Isn’t it exactly what it looks like in the temple murals?
