Chapter 14 Curiosity 4600

Just as Elias was about to send a message and remind Suzhou's Water God believers had already begun to act.

Su Zhou was experimenting with the results of his recent practice in the underground maze.

- Underground maze, seventh floor, hurricane cliff-

Hurricane Cliff is called this name precisely because this layer of mazes will occasionally blow extremely lethal and extremely fierce winds.

This wind erodes the rock formation, making this maze almost all steep wind eroded rock, with few flat places to settle down, and even if there are, it is a habitat for some powerful monsters.

Now, a flat mountain hanging platform was obviously the nest of a powerful monster, but a black-haired young man stood calmly in the middle of the hanging platform, signaling a huge moth-shaped monster standing opposite him to attack him.

The young man was wearing a simple short-sleeved shirt and his lower body was shorts that were convenient for movement. He dressed like a tourist on the beach in summer. His exposed skin was flashing with layers of grayish white glow.

"hurry up!"

The moth monster, which was occupied by the nest but did not dare to have any complaints, did not dare to attack the other party, but under Su Zhou's slightly impatient urging, it still vibrated its wings in a whine, absorbed all its magic power in the surrounding atmosphere, condensed them all on its wings, and then gathered a rainbow light orb that gathered into the top of its forehead, and finally turned into an extremely bright beam of light.

Buzz, a buzzing sound, this blow that gathers the energy of the moth monster vibrates the atmosphere. It is just a precursor and tears the air into a series of vacuum waves. After the magic torrent formed by the blending of various elements is emitted, it causes dryness, moisture, electric shock and other phenomena to appear alternately in the surrounding air. You can tell at a glance that it is extremely powerful.

However, when facing this blow that could penetrate the giant rock, Su Zhou simply raised his left hand and stood firmly in front of him.

Bang, the moment the dazzling elemental torrent touched Su Zhou's left palm, layers of gray and white shimmer dragon scales floated from the center of his palm. These very fragile scales were like dams, firmly blocking all the elemental impacts, and they almost had no loss.

Even if there is an extraordinary high-level practitioner present, he can see that after contacting the element torrent, these gray-white scales will begin to change color rapidly, and quickly convert the elements he touches into other types of elements - the types of elements converted by each scale are fixed, some scales only convert water, some only convert fire, and most of the types of elements converted by each adjacent scale are different.

After these elements were converted by scales, they began to conflict with each other, cancel each other out, and even turned into pure impact force, flowing out along Su Zhou's arm, the grooves that seemed to be the outline of the muscles.

For a moment, you can see a long white air shock wave running towards the rear in the direction of Su Zhou's elbow joints. The forward pushing force it produces is roughly equal to the backward pushing force generated by the torrent of the element in front. Su Zhou doesn't even have to use his own power. As long as he ensures the correct angle of his arm, he can block this attack almost without damage!

Soon, the full-strength attack of the Moth Warcraft ended, and the elemental torrent gradually became thinner and smaller, like a gradually drying river, and finally disappeared - this time, the Moth Warcraft performed super-levelly, at least an ordinary and extraordinary low-level monster would never be able to block this attack.

"good!"

But even so, Su Zhou was still unscathed. He clapped his hands and disappeared the blue smoke floating in his palm. The young man raised his hand and looked at the scales in his palm happily. This time, the newly modified scales did not become charred due to frequent conversion of elements, nor did they crack and bleeding due to overload operation.

——It remains stable and maintains its normal form!

There is no doubt that this proves that compared with the dozens of experiments before, the scales corrected this time have suffered less damage and have higher completion rates.

"Your strength has exceeded the average rating standard of extraordinary level."

It can be heard, Yara commented quite pertinently: "The talented spell-like ability of this extraordinary low-level elemental moth is enough to challenge it beyond the level. The extraordinary mid-level monster with insufficient normal defense is hit by its elemental beam, and it may be killed by one blow. However, your defense can already ignore this level of attack, making it return with all its strength without success."

"After all, it's me - if I can't even do this, how can I be worthy of my hard work during this period!"

Su Zhou replied naturally, he clasped his palms tightly, causing the scales in his palm to disappear and sink into his skin. The young man nodded with satisfaction: "It seems that the scale material of the real body can be determined. With the muscle tissue structure that has been confirmed some time ago, after a while, I can start to officially reserve physical mass and start the transformation of the real body's practice."

Previously, the scales that appeared in the center of Su Zhou's palm were secondary extraordinary organs transformed and deteriorated by Su Zhou based on the "Five Spirit Colored Feather" of the peacock divine bird.

The original Five Spirit Colorful Petal can quickly and freely convert spiritual power with various attributes, so that a piece of spiritual power can exude a variety of characteristics. It is an extremely efficient spiritual converter and storage device.

However, the structure of the Five Spirit Colorful Feather is too delicate and complex, and it is difficult to shape and repair. Even if it is converted into Five Spirit Colorful Feather, it cannot conceal its characteristics. Although this extraordinary organ is strong, it is difficult to repair and regenerate, and it cannot be used as daily consumption, especially as a physical material for defense.

Therefore, Su Zhou simply deteriorated it, eliminating the various types of free conversion functions of the Five Spirit Color Scale, so that it can only be fixedly converted, just like a processor that castrated its performance. In this way, he had extra space to reinforce the scale structure and greatly accelerate the regeneration speed.

"It's just a pity that the conversion speed of the dragon scales is still at the upper limit. If it exceeds the upper limit, it will explode - if it is at the level of the Five Spirit Color Scale, even the torrent of the extraordinary high-level spiritual power can be blocked, but it will be very difficult for the degraded version of the dragon scale to block the full strength of an extraordinary first-level monster."

Knight, Su Zhou was still a little unsatisfied with the defense of this scale, but fortunately, it also has the benefits of explosion, which means that the gray-white dragon scales can become a structure similar to the reaction armor, which really cannot stop the attack and can also reduce the damage of the enemy to himself through self-destruction.

It really doesn't work. Su Zhou can still throw out the overloaded scales and attack the opponent as a scale bomb.

——Although it sounds similar to the ability of a policeman in a certain world, if you think about it carefully, Su Zhou is also a righteous policeman. Everyone is a policeman, so it is normal for him to have similarities.

“Buzz?”

At this time, the moth monster that had previously attacked and helped Su Zhou conduct the test made a sound lightly, as if asking Su Zhou carefully. The young man who had successfully completed the test smiled and waved his hand to the other party: "Okay, I'll leave right away and won't continue to disturb you."

After saying that, he used the wind to help Lan Jia control the strong wind and left the suspension platform, leaving the moths and monsters in place, shaking their wings as if they were relieved, and then collapsed to the ground.

Just as Su Zhou was about to find a place to continue his practice in the seventh floor maze, he happened to receive a notice from Elias.

"Is it true that the enemy is coming? I said that the believers of the God of Water cannot have not responded for so long. It turns out that they have been acting separately for a while recently and attacking other cities."

Su Zhou nodded slightly, and suddenly felt that Taiping had explained the recent period. However, in order to be cautious, he still asked: "Is the member of the caravan who sent the message not a spy?"

"No." Behind the communication magic weapon, Elias' voice came, and the boy explained seriously: "We have tested it according to the method you left before, and found no signs of non-human. He is not a fishman, but a pure human."

"Is that true? Since that's the case, we must be prepared to resist the enemy's impact."

Although Su Zhou felt that even if the member of the chamber of commerce was not a spy, he could not believe the other party's one-sided words, the information that the believers of the God of Water were rampant around the world could not be cheated, and it could easily prove the authenticity. The other party did not need to cheat in this regard.

Just during the period when Su Zhou recently exercised his abilities in the underground maze, Elias also did not waste time.

Through the known news about the "God of Water", the young man collected all the legends and news related to it with his identity as the Grand Duke of Nesser City.

Although most of them are hypotheses and fabricated information that deceived the foolish people, some truly ancient classics have vaguely described related information.

——The oldest deity is the wind born from fire.

The wind was howling, and the world was swaying in the air.

——The second god is the water condensed in the wind.

The rain is falling, and the world is drifting with the waves.

——The current gods are the earth gathered in the water.

The rocks are bulging, so the world is fixed in shape.

This song comes from the creation song left by an ancient barbarian before the end of the world. Although it does not directly praise the name of "God of Water", it describes in detail the strange alternation of elements such as "Wind in Fire", "Water in Wind" and "Going in Water". All of this is indeed consistent with what he knows now about the God of Earth and God of Water.

Of course, it seems to be vaguely implying that besides the God of Water, there may be another God of Wind that has also recovered - but there is no news about it yet.

In order to find this related ballad of creation, Elias spent a lot of time reading various classics stored in the Nesser family, and even searched them for three or four consecutive days without sleep. Even Su Zhou was surprised by this effort and couldn't help asking why.

"Actually there is no need?"

At that time, Su Zhou said in confusion: "Don't you always joke? The world is almost destroyed - since that's the case, why do you still work so hard to find such information? Elias, you also know that no matter what the enemy is, we just need to defeat it."

"It's different, Mr. Su Zhou."

At that time, Elias replied so calmly: "Waring with the God of Water may not require knowing His origin, but if we want to find the truth about the replacement of the era and find a way to avoid the end of the world, we need to find its source - the believers of the God of Water still exist, which proves that there is indeed such a feasible method."

After explaining his behavior, the gray-eyed boy was silent for a while, and then slowly said a more real reason: "And, even if the world will be destroyed in an instant, I will be curious about the truth behind the world. Just like now, I am still curious about what is like at the bottom of the maze."

"After all, according to the order in which the song is sung, the next thing that appears should be 'fire in the earth'... Does this have anything to do with the maze where the lower the temperature drops, the higher the temperature? I can't help but think about it."

As he said this, he even laughed, with a simple and pure happiness: "After all, my father once told me that the most important virtue of human beings is curiosity... Whether it is above the sky or deep in the earth, human beings want to explore and go to unknown places."

"Perhaps, this is why, even though the first few mazes are enough to provide people with their lives, there are still many humans who are still striving to explore deeper mazes at the end of the world."

At this moment, Su Zhou had risen to the fifth level of maze. He saw many adventurers exploring in this layer of maze and collecting information, like ants, exploring around in this vast maze.

Unlike the surface shelter full of dusk air, here, in this maze deep underground, Su Zhou saw a vigor called vitality.

Although the exclusive expedition team of Grand Duke Naisel has already opened up a deeper path, the details in the entire maze are not found by a team. They must be information that adventurers continue to explore and find bit by bit.

"Is human curiosity?" Su Zhou felt that this instinct that cannot be suppressed even if it is the despair of the end of the world is quite romantic. Anyway, he likes it very much: "At least it means that although this world seems to be just waiting to die, it is actually a bit energetic."

"In this way, I feel that even if it is not for my own purpose, but just for these ordinary people who are working hard to live, I feel quite motivated."

Thinking of this, Su Zhou returned to the surface and flew towards Naiser City.

But as he flew back to the city, Su Zhou vaguely discovered that the distant sky had become much darker.

There was a dull dead aura coming from the distant end.

"Is it possible that the necromancers are gathering?"

Although Su Zhou has been practicing in the underground maze during this period, it does not mean that he does not know the fact that there are a large number of undeads wandering on the surface of Taltadis. Some time ago, he went around the wilderness and saw what is special about the undead.

Unfortunately, it is no different from the resentful souls on the earth. In general, it is just the resentment left by a large number of people who died in the last days. However, because the world itself is gradually declining, such undead is particularly easy to generate.

Just as the vengeful spirits instinctively attack humans, a large number of undead gathering will naturally approach the shelter city where humans gather, causing the phenomenon of undead siege. The large amount of death aura that appears in the distance makes Su Zhou suspect that the undead sieges the city.

However, when Su Zhou came to the Grand Duke Mansion, which had been repaired, and was about to inform Elias of the news and ask him what he thought, Su Zhou received an extremely shocking news.

"What? The believers of the Water God massacre the city and sacrifice?!"

When Elias spoke such news with an extremely solemn expression that was not consistent with his age, even Su Zhou was shocked: "The Mickelson Shelter was slaughtered all over the place to sacrifice and restore the power of the water god. No wonder there was such a heavy death breath... But how could they do this?!"

"After all, it's the end of the world, isn't it?"

The young grandfather seemed to want to be calm and said a cold joke, but it was obvious that judging from the joints of his fingers that had been pressed to the point of being white, he himself didn't find anything funny.

After a while of silence, Elias sighed, but his eyes regained his motivation: "Although I don't know how the sacrifice is, there is no doubt that the power of the water god has greatly increased, and their next goal is us... I originally thought that at most I would die, but now it seems that this is not the case."

And Su Zhou's reaction was much simpler.

"They're dead."

The bottom of the purple dragon's pupil seemed to have a raging fire. The Demon-Devouring Lord stated:

"———Everyone in heaven, no one can save them when they come."
