Chapter 9 Elias and the World (4800)
After many changes of hands, Nessel City finally returned to the hands of the Nessel family.
在末世时分,血脉的意义无限淡薄,毕竟人类繁衍,只是为了传承自己的血脉,当然,或许有一部分是意外.可倘若人人都知晓末日即将,且必然降临,那么人类还会愿意繁衍后代,让新生命诞生在这个即将毁灭的世界中吗?
No matter what people think, in fact, the closer they get to the end, the more the fertility rate declines. As for the ancient family and the sacred bloodline, it is even more meaningless.
但是,类似奈瑟尔家族这种,统领着一个庇护所的家族除外——他们的存在,意味着庇护所的存在,哪怕是贵族制度早就消散了数百年,可是人们依旧用古老的称谓称呼他们的‘统治者’,用充满敬爱的感情,称呼这些建立大阵,庇护一方的强者.
After eliminating evil, Su Zhou had nothing to do. The next thing was Elias's work. He left the square and did not steal the other party's limelight. He found a place to sit down and practice.
Although Su Zhou was terrible innate, he also worked harder than most practitioners in terms of practice. As long as he had free time, he would meditate and practice no matter where he was, even if he was watching a movie in the cinema, and when he saw boring plots.
Although Elias, the young man, was young, acted in an orderly manner and was properly treated. Taking advantage of the people's cheers brought by the killing of the three enemy elites, he immediately used a series of actions to consolidate people's hearts.
凭借苏昼力量带来的威慑力,埃利亚斯先是在广场公开证明了自己大公血脉,可以与庇护所大阵互相呼应的事实,紧接着便开始整顿秩序,重整城卫军,将之前城中仍然残留的一些没有逃走的铠甲士兵抓住,企图进行审讯.
But it is regrettable that most of the armored soldiers chose to commit suicide before interrogation, and those who did not commit suicide were all killed by the soul ban. A large part of them turned into a strange marine race similar to a fishman after they died, which aroused everyone's surprise.
既然无法审讯,那埃利亚斯也只能跳过这一步骤,将大公府周边的尸体从绞刑架上解下,归还给他们各自的亲友,每一位受害者家庭都得到了相应的补偿,而之前选择助纣为虐的本地人,也被挨个抓出,进行公开审判,发泄众人的怒火.
实际上,远不仅仅这些,这一日晚上,埃利亚斯还做了很多事情,比如说整理庇护大阵如今的情况,统计苏昼造成的城市破坏带来的损失,确认各地区中是否有敌人留下的暗手……
其中,最重要的便是苏昼带来的破坏了,毕竟半个大公府都被摧毁,能看见少年在统计损失时,那一脸因为心疼而抽痛的表情:“哎,至少留下了一半,倘若没有苏先生,我连这一半都继承不了,总的来说,还是赚了.”
After self-comfort, a series of things were done, and only Elias, who was a formal professional, was so tired that he was sweating and his shirt was soaked.
"This little guy is doing a pretty good job,"
苏昼在一旁,并没有干涉对方逐步拿回自己的权利,虽然这位灰眸少年的确是凭借他的威慑才如此干净利索的办好这一切,但两人本就是雇佣关系,苏昼没觉得有什么不满,甚至有些感慨:“假如是我在这个年纪,可做不出这么精细的操作.”
Indeed, Su Zhou has never been good at making such plans. On Earth, Shao Qiming or other peers do it for him, and Su Zhou just needs to rush up and kill.
"Mr. Su Zhou, I've kept you waiting for a long time."
A little half a day passed, at 5:43 am.
Elias, who had not slept all night, found Su Zhou, who was sitting aside and practicing. He raised his spirits and whispered in a low voice: "I'll pay the promised reward..."
"good."
Su Zhou was not polite either. He opened his eyes, stood up, and followed Elias into the semi-destroyed Grand Duke's Mansion.
虽然说,大公府大半都被苏昼之前的战斗摧毁,但是它毕竟是一座要塞级的建筑,被摧毁了一半,并不影响剩下来的一半可以正常使用,而恰好,奈瑟尔家族的书房就位于大公府的后半部分,并没有被苏昼的攻击波及.
The study room of the Dagong Mansion is very large, and it is a semi-spherical hall with all kinds of books on all kinds of books. The entire building itself has an independent magic circle defense, which looks gorgeous, exquisite and atmospheric.
"This, there are actually collections of spells from the four elements, and even rare spell books derived from them!"
进入其中后,苏昼仅仅是扫视一眼,便微微睁大眼睛,知晓这里是一个宝库——异世界的魔力体系,虽然同样是利用‘灵气’的超凡体系,但是和苏昼经常见到的灵法修持有着极大的不同.
他山之石可以攻玉,如今持有多位正国一系仙神传承的苏昼,正需要这些特殊且不同的养分来令自己成长,而奈瑟尔家族丰富的收藏,毫无疑问可以大大完善他对这个体系的认知!
"If I could remember and digest all the books in this study, then I would definitely be able to improve the essence of spiritual energy practice." Thinking of this, Su Zhou couldn't help but smile.
“苏先生.”埃利亚斯看表情,就知道苏昼很是满意,而他大概是知晓苏昼可能并不懂奈瑟尔城的语言,便善意的提醒道:“绝大部分魔法书都有着精神传承的功能,如果您需要,便使用吧.”
"good."
苏昼干脆的答应下来——有智慧果带来的学习速度加成,他倒是不介意学习一下本地的语言,反正最多两三天就能大致掌握,更能深刻的了解魔法书的本意,但是既然有精神传承,那么也没必要那么麻烦.
At worst, you will always gain something when you read it while learning it and reading it a few times.
“液化术?有点意思,这种使用灵力对身体结构进行短时间改造的法术,和真身的修持,也有一定的关系.’”没有半点拘束,苏昼当即便随手挑了一本水系魔法书,坐在一旁的羊绒座椅上,开始起来,就当这里是自己家一样.
He never knew how to write these two words "comfortable".
On the other side, Elias' expression seemed to hesitate. He thought for a while, but in the end, the boy took off the space ring in his hand and handed it to Su Zhou.
"Sorry, after checking it just now, I found that the raw material for casting this ring, ‘Subspace Crystal Iron’, does not have the secret treasure in the Neiser family. It was an ancient strange thing that my ancestors accidentally obtained - but I can't speak without trust, so this space ring will be handed over to Mr. Su."
As he said this, he closed his eyes and simply stuffed the ring into Suzhou's hand. It could be seen that Elias's ears were a little red, as if he was ashamed of not fulfilling his promise.
“Um…”
When Su Zhou closed the magic book in his hand, he did not say no to refuse at the first time. He took the ring from Elias, pinched it in his hand, and carefully sensed it.
Then he sensed that behind this seemingly tiny silver metal ring, there was a dead space.
The crystalline iron of the subspace itself is a small subspace projected into reality. The ring forged with it as the raw material can only store dead objects. After all, there is no light, no air, and no soil in the subspace. Even bacteria cannot survive. The forging process of the storage ring has made the energy flow in this space close to stagnation. Although it can preserve something for a long time, it kills the source of life.
However, the personal space created by practicing the Yara secret method and subspace crystal iron as raw material does not have this constraint - the person who practices this supernatural power is the sun of the personal space. If Su Zhou accomplishes it, his excess spiritual power will be used as the source of spiritual power to pour into this personal space for use by the creatures in it.
In addition, Su Zhou can also use spiritual objects such as chalcedony, or kill other creatures, and use their corpses as fuel to provide personal space for use.
Of course, spiritual power alone is not enough. The premise for biological survival is that there is soil, air and water in the personal space, but Su Zhou is not worried about this.
"At worst, go to the Kunlun Secret Realm, dig a little more soil, absorb some spiritual liquid from the Yaochi, and absorb some local spiritual energy. In this way, the wisdom tree will be more comfortable." Su ·博赢官网站 thought so, without any shame of embezzling state-owned assets. When Yala sensed Su Zhou's thoughts, he couldn't help but tsk: "This kind of natural face is really worthy of being the Demon Lord."
"I'll dig a little bit of Kunlun Secret Realm so big!"
Replying to Yara in his heart, in reality, Su Zhou raised his head, raised his brows and looked at Elias: "Tell me, who gave you the gift of this ring? Is it your father, your mother, or other ancestors."
While feeling the essence of the space ring, he also noticed that in addition to Elias, there was also aura that was far away from the Nessel family.
"Huh." Elias, who originally thought he would be scolded, was stunned for a while after hearing this abrupt question, but soon, he reacted and replied in a low voice: "It's grandma... I just turned 14 years ago, and when I held the coming-of-age gift, my grandma gave me."
Even Anzi is a member of the Nessel family, not only to ensure Anzi's loyalty, but also because Elias is indeed their relative. Any member of the Nessel family who knows the existence of a young man is not stingy with giving kindness to his juniors. For his young grandson, the elders of the Nessel family are even willing to give him the treasured space equipment.
However, in the serial assassination several months ago, Elias is the only one left in the Neisser family - this is why the boy's expression was a little dim at this time.
“嗯,你先留着吧.”苏昼也没说自己不要,他将这枚戒指递回去,然后继续抬起魔法书,淡淡的说道:“我在这个地方还会呆上一段时间,等到我要走的时候,还没有发现其他的亚空间结晶铁亦或是其他空间装备的话,那我自然不会客气.”
Anyway, there is indeed space-based materials in this world, so there is no need to win over what others love. Su Zhou's personality is not that self-centered. Within his ability, he is willing to understand other people's feelings.
"Compared with this, Elias, the members of the mysterious organization that attacked the Neisel family, are mostly sub-ethnic races of the Seas. Do you have any clues about this?"
"ah……"
The gray-eyed boy took the space ring from Su Zhou's hand blankly. He looked at the "youth" with a calm expression in front of him, and a huge sense of strangeness arose in his heart.
Since the encounter with this wilderness walker, he has always expressed a feeling of being incompatible with the world.
He doesn't love money, which is understandable. After all, the wilderness walker does rarely use money.
It is not surprising that he likes knowledge. After all, knowledge is power, and what the wilderness walker needs is power.
但是,无论是针对平民的善意态度,还是面对未知势力,没有任何犹豫直接果断出手的决绝,都并非是荒野行者这个身份所能解释的,而空间装备这方面就更加了——明明成品的空间装备更加珍贵,而他却只需要原材料.
It's like I didn't eat a prepared meal, but I had to have a bunch of raw fish and shrimp.
埃利亚斯却是不清楚,苏昼要修行的个人空间,最重要的就是个人的印记,空间装备归根结底已经被塑造过一遍,相当于被人打上了一层印记,如果想要用它作为原材料修行,毫无疑问是事倍功半,如果不是没有选择,他并不打算这么做.
“非常感谢您的慷慨和宽容!”不管怎么说,埃利亚斯都对苏昼感激的点头行礼,然后,他便针对苏昼的问题进行回答:“至于那些敌人的来源,这个,我骑士并不清楚……”
Speaking so, Elias' tone was obviously confused: "Nether City is part of the former Kingdom of Thousand Lakes. Among the Kingdom of Thousand Lakes, there are indeed mermaids with fish tails and fish-headed fish-headed fish-men. They are the most prosperous among the many races of the Kingdom of Thousand Lakes. However, the strange octopus creatures and giant shrimps before are the ones I have never seen. What's more, both mermaids and fish-men have become extinct hundreds of years ago."
"However, in ancient legends, it is said that in the era when there was an endless lake called the "Ocean", there were indeed all kinds of strange marine creatures in the sea, forming countries and cities, and establishing prosperous civilizations. Today's mermaids and fishmen are just part of the huge empire - of course, it's just a legend. To be honest, except for the fishmen in the Thousand Lakes Kingdom, there is also the story of the endless sea circulating, other races basically think that it is delusion."
说到这里,埃利亚斯似乎也感觉好笑起来,他随意地扯开领口透气,摇摇头道:“说来也是,什么整个世界都被水包裹着,绝大部分生命都生活在水中,这也的确是只有鱼人才会有的传说和妄想了.”
However, Elias, who originally thought he was just telling a joke, unexpectedly saw Su Zhou sitting on a large cashmere chair, his expression became serious instantly.
"No sea?"
He stood up slowly, asked the young man in confusion, "Is there no sea here now?"
"Ah? Yes, yes."
埃利亚斯的身高只有160,而苏昼的自然身高在修行带来的发育后,便增加到了182,当然,以苏昼如今的修为,他可以变得更高,也能变得更矮,但不管怎么说,苏昼站立起来时,那股自然而然地灵压和气势,下意识地便让埃利亚斯后退了一步.
咽了口口水,灰瞳少年也不知道为何苏昼突然这么严肃,他有些困惑的点了点头:“塔尔塔迪斯(世界名)本就是由无尽平原和山岭组成的,湖泊和河流都只是点缀……大地父神的创世书上,的确就是这么写的,而且也是事实.”
"Did the Father of Earth and the Book of Creation... Well, let me show me the map of this world first." Su Zhou didn't feel like pretending to be a world man. He asked the map without hesitation, and then he began to ask Elias about the setting of this world like a rpg player who skipped a huge part of the plot: "By the way, if you have time, let me explain to me what the specific situation of this world is - whether it is the Father of Earth, the Book of Creation, or anything else, just treat me as a ignorant seclusion and explain to me the world."
"Okay, Mr. Su." Although he felt strange, but he was a little confused, Elias nodded and agreed, "No problem."
