Chapter 9: Elias and the World (4800)
After many changes of hands, the city of Nether eventually returned to the Nether family.
In the last days, the meaning of bloodline is infinitely weak, after all, human beings reproduce just to inherit their own bloodline, of course, maybe part of it is an accident. But if everyone knows that the end is imminent, and that it will come, will humanity still be willing to reproduce and allow new life to be born in this world that is about to be destroyed?
No matter what one thinks, the reality is that the closer we get to the end of the day, the more the fertility rate will fall, and as for the ancient family, the sacred bloodline, it is even more meaningless.
However, with the exception of families like the Nethers, who rule a sanctuary - their existence means the existence of the sanctuary, even if the aristocracy has long since dissipated for hundreds of years, people still call their 'rulers' by ancient titles, and with loving feelings, they call these powerful people who build a great array and shelter one side.
After eradicating the evil, Su Sun didn't have much to do, and the next thing was Elias's work, he left the square, didn't go to steal the other party's limelight, and found a random place to sit down and practice.
Although Su Sun's talent is terrifying, in terms of cultivation, he also works harder than most cultivators, as long as he has free time, no matter where he is, he will meditate and practice, even when watching movies in the cinema and seeing boring plots.
Elias, a young man, was young, but he acted in an orderly manner and behaved appropriately, taking advantage of the cheers of the people brought about by the slaughter of the three enemy elites, he immediately used a series of actions to stabilize people's hearts.
With the deterrent power brought by Su Sun's power, Elias first publicly proved the fact that his Grand Duke bloodline could echo the Sanctuary Array in the square, and then began to put order in order, reorganize the city guards, and capture some of the armored soldiers who still remained in the city before and tried to interrogate them.
But it is a pity that most of the armored soldiers chose to commit suicide before the interrogation, and those who did not commit suicide were all killed by the soul ban, and a large part of them were transformed into a strange marine race similar to a fishman after they died, which attracted everyone's amazement.
Since there was no way to interrogate, Elias could only skip this step and remove the corpses from the gallows around the Grand Duke's Mansion and return them to their relatives and friends, and each victim's family was compensated accordingly, and the locals who had previously chosen to help the abuse were also arrested one by one and held a public trial to vent everyone's anger.
In fact, much more than that, Elias also did a lot of things that night, such as sorting out the current situation of the Shelter Array, counting the damage caused by the destruction of the city caused by Su Sun, and confirming whether there were any hidden hands left by the enemy in each area......
Among them, the most important thing is the destruction brought by Su Day, after all, half of the Grand Duke's Mansion has been destroyed, and you can see the young man's expression of pain because of distress when he counted the losses: "Hey, at least half of it is left, if there is no Mr. Su, I can't even inherit this half, in general, I still earn." ”
After self-comfort, a series of things were done, and only Elias, who was at the beginning of the official professional level, that is, the first level of the awakening level, was tired and sweaty, and his shirt was soaked.
"This little guy is still doing a good job,"
Su Sun was on the side, and did not interfere with the other party gradually taking back his rights, although the gray-eyed young man did handle all this so cleanly and neatly with his deterrence, but the two were in an employment relationship, Su Sun didn't feel any dissatisfaction, and even sighed a little: "If it were me at this age, I wouldn't be able to do such a delicate operation." ”
This is true, Su Sun has never been good at doing this kind of planning, similar things on the earth, Shao Qiming or other companions do it for him, and Su Sun only needs to rush up and kill.
"Mr. Su Day, I've kept you waiting."
Half a day passed, 5:43 a.m.
Elias, who hadn't slept all night, found Su Sun, who was sitting on the side, practicing, he lifted his spirit, and whispered a little unsure whether to disturb the other party: "I'm going to pay the promised reward......
"Okay."
Su Sun was not polite, he opened his eyes, got up, and followed Elias into the half-ruined Grand Duke's mansion.
Although it is said that most of the Grand Duke's Mansion was destroyed by Su Sun's previous battle, it is a fortress-level building after all, and half of it has been destroyed, which does not affect the normal use of the remaining half, and it just so happens that the study of the Nether family is located in the second half of the Grand Duke's Mansion and has not been affected by Su Sun's attack.
The study room of the Grand Duke's Mansion is very large, it is a hemispherical hall, the four walls are filled with all kinds of books, and the whole building itself has an independent magic circle defense, which looks gorgeous, delicate and atmospheric.
"This, the spells of the four major elemental systems actually have collections, and even the rare spell books derived from them are available!"
After entering it, Su Sun just glanced at it, and then his eyes widened slightly, knowing that this was a treasure trove - the magic power system of another world, although it was also an extraordinary system that used 'aura', but it was very different from the spiritual cultivation that Su Sun often saw.
The stones of other mountains can attack jade, and now Su Ri, who holds a number of immortal inheritances of the Zhengguo lineage, needs these special and different nutrients to make himself grow, and the rich collection of the Nether family can undoubtedly greatly improve his cognition of this system!
"If I can memorize and digest all the books in this study, then my understanding of the essence of Reiki cultivation will definitely go to the next level." Thinking of this, Su Sun couldn't help but smile.
"Mr. Sue." Elias looked at his expression and knew that Su Sun was very satisfied, and he probably knew that Su Sun might not understand the language of Nether, so he kindly reminded: "Most magic books have the function of spiritual inheritance, if you need it, use it." ”
"Okay."
Su Yan simply agreed-with the learning speed bonus brought by the Wisdom Fruit, he didn't mind learning the local language, anyway, he could roughly master it in two or three days at most, and he could better understand the original meaning of the magic book, but since there was a spiritual inheritance, there was no need to be so troublesome.
It's a big deal, while watching, learning at the same time, reading a few more times, there is always something to gain.
"Liquefaction? It's a bit interesting, this kind of spell that uses spiritual power to transform the body structure for a short period of time also has a certain relationship with the cultivation of the real body. Without the slightest restraint, Su Yandang picked out a water-based magic book, sat on the cashmere chair next to him, and began to read, as if this was his home.
He was a man who never knew how to write the word polite.
On the other side, Elias's expression seemed to be a little hesitant, he thought about it for a while, but in the end, the young man still took off the space ring on his hand and handed it to Su Sun.
"I'm sorry, after checking just now, I found out that the raw material for casting this ring, 'Subspace Crystalline Iron', is indeed not in the secret vault of the Nether family, it is an ancient curiosity that the ancestor accidentally obtained - but I can't be untrustworthy, so this space ring will be handed over to you, Mr. Su."
With that, he closed his eyes and simply stuffed the ring into Su Sun's hand. Elias could see that the tips of his ears were a little red, as if he was ashamed that he had not fulfilled his promise.
"Hmm......"
Closing the magic book in his hand, Su Sun didn't say no at the first time, he took the ring from Elias's hand, pinched it in his hand, and sensed it carefully.
Then, he sensed that behind this seemingly tiny silver metal ring, there was a dead space.
The subspace crystalline iron itself is a small subspace, projected into the reality of the material, with it as the raw material forged ring, can only store dead things, after all, there is no light in the subspace, no air, no soil, even bacteria can not live, the forging process of the storage ring, but the energy flow of this space is close to stagnation, although it can preserve something for a long time, but it kills the source of life.
However, the personal space formed by using the Yala secret method and the subspace crystalline iron as the raw material does not have this constraint - the person who cultivates the supernatural power itself is the sun of the personal space, and if Su Sun cultivates, then his excess spiritual power will be used as a source of spiritual power to pour into this personal space for the use of the creatures in it.
In addition, Su Sun can also use spiritual objects such as spiritual power chalcedony, or kill other creatures, and use their corpses as fuel for personal use.
Of course, it is not enough to have spiritual power, the premise for living things to survive is that there is soil, air and water in their personal space, but Su Sun is not worried about this.
"It's a big deal, go to the Kunlun Secret Realm, dig a little more soil, absorb some Yaochi spiritual liquid, and absorb a little local aura, in this way, the wisdom tree will be a little more comfortable." Su Scraping the Ground and Three Feet Day thought of this, without the slightest shame of embezzling state-owned assets, and Yara sensed Su Day's thoughts, and couldn't help but sigh: "This kind of natural face is really worthy of the Demon Lord." ”
"The Kunlun Secret Realm is so big, I'll dig a little, it's nothing!"
Replying to Yala in his heart, in reality, Su Sun raised his head, he raised his eyebrows, and looked at Elias: "Say, who gave you this ring?" It's your dad, your mom, or some other ancestor. ”
While feeling the essence of the spatial ring, he also noticed that on this ring, in addition to Elias, there was also a distant aura of the Nesser's family.
"Huh." Elias, who originally thought that he would be reprimanded, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment after hearing this somewhat abrupt question, but soon, he reacted and replied in a low voice: "It's grandma...... I had just turned 14 years ago, and my grandmother gave me a gift during the coming-of-age ceremony. ”
Even if it is a dark child, he is also a member of the Nesser family, not only to ensure the loyalty of the Shadow Son, but also because Elias is indeed their relative, any member of the Nesser family who knows the existence of the boy is not stingy to give kindness to his own juniors, and for his young grandchildren, the elders of the Nesser family are even willing to give their treasured space equipment.
However, in the series of assassinations a few months ago, Elias was now the only one left in the Nether family - which is why the boy's demeanor was a little gloomy at this time.
"Well, you can keep it for now." Su Sun didn't say that he didn't want to, he handed the ring back, and then continued to lift the magic book, and said lightly: "I will stay in this place for a while, and when I want to leave, if I haven't found other subspace crystalline iron or other space equipment, then I will naturally not be polite." ”
Anyway, there are indeed space materials in this world, so there is no need to win people's love, Su Sun's personality is not so egotistical, and within the scope of his ability, he is also willing to understand the feelings of others.
"Compared to this, Elias, most of the members of the mysterious organization that attacked the Nether family are the subhuman race of the seaborn, do you have any clue about this matter?"
"Ah......h
The gray-eyed young man was stunned to take the space ring from Su Sun's hand, he looked at the 'young man' with a calm expression in front of him, and he couldn't help but feel a great sense of weirdness in his heart.
From the encounter to the present, this wilderness walker has always shown a sense of alienation from this world.
He doesn't love money, which is understandable, after all, the Revenants do rarely use it.
He likes knowledge, and it's no surprise that knowledge is power, and what a wilderness walker needs is power.
However, whether it is the kind attitude towards civilians, or the decision to act directly and decisively without any hesitation in the face of unknown forces, it is not something that can be explained by the identity of a wilderness walker, and the space equipment is even more - it is clear that the finished space equipment is more precious, but he only needs raw materials.
It's like not eating a big meal, but you have to have a bunch of raw fish and live shrimp.
Elias didn't know, the most important thing about Su Sun's personal space to practice was his personal imprint, and the space equipment had been shaped in the final analysis, which was equivalent to being marked by someone, if he wanted to use it as a raw material to practice, there was no doubt that it would be half the effort, if it wasn't for no choice, he didn't plan to do it.
"Thank you so much for your generosity and tolerance!" In any case, Elias nodded gratefully to Su Sun, and then he replied to Su Sun's question: "As for the origin of those enemies, this, my knight does not know ......"
Saying this, Elias's tone was obviously also confused: "The city of Nether was part of the former Land of a Thousand Lakes, and in the Land of a Thousand Lakes, there are indeed mermaids with human bodies and fish tails, as well as fish-headed and human fishmen, and they are the most prosperous among the many races in the Land of Thousand Lakes except for humans. But the strange octopus-clawed creatures and the form that looked like giant shrimps before, I had never seen before. What's more, both mermaids and fish-people became extinct hundreds of years ago. ”
"However, in ancient legends, it is said that in the era of the endless lake called 'Ocean' in the world, there were indeed all kinds of strange sea creatures in the sea, forming countries and cities, and establishing a prosperous civilization, and today's mermaids and fishmen are just part of that huge empire - of course, it is just a legend, to be honest, except for the fish-people in the land of a thousand lakes, there are stories of the endless sea that circulate, and other races basically feel that it is delusional."
Speaking of this, Elias also seemed to feel funny, he casually ripped open his collar to breathe, shook his head and said: "It is also said that the whole world is wrapped in water, and most of life lives in water, which is indeed a legend and delusion that only fish people have." ”
However, Elias, who originally thought he was just telling a joke, unexpectedly saw Su Yan sitting on a cashmere chair, and his expression instantly became serious.
"No sea?"
He slowly stood up and asked the young man in front of him suspiciously, "You guys, is there no sea here?" ”
"Huh? yes, yes. ”
Elias's height is only 160, and Su Sun's natural height has increased to 182 after the development brought about by his cultivation, of course, with Su Sun's current cultivation, he can become taller and shorter, but in any case, when Su Sun stood up, the natural spiritual pressure and momentum subconsciously made Elias take a step back.
Swallowing his saliva, the gray-eyed young man didn't know why Su Sun was suddenly so serious, he nodded a little confused: "Tartadis (world name) is originally composed of endless plains and mountains, and lakes and rivers are just dots...... This is indeed what God the Father of the Earth wrote in the book of Genesis, and it is also true. ”
"God the Father of the Earth and the Book of Genesis...... Well, first show me a map of this world. Su Sun didn't have any sense of wanting to disguise himself as a native of this world, he asked for the map without hesitation, and then like an RPG player who had skipped a huge part of the plot setting, he began to ask Elias about the setting of this world: "By the way, if you have time, explain to me what the specific situation of this world is going on - whether it is the Earth Father, or the Book of Genesis, or something else, you can treat me as a hermit who knows nothing and explain this world to me." ”
"Okay, Mr. Su." Although he felt strange, Elias, who was a little confused, nodded and agreed, "No problem." ”
