Chapter 192: Beneath the Vientiane Void
As Christie and Alice spoke, Marlene reached out, and soon the metal staff appeared in her hand, and gold threads emerged from it, and then wrapped around the other illusory soul. Soon, the soul of the other Marlene slowly shattered, shattered into pieces, and completely disappeared into thin air. And only then did Marlene open her eyes again and slowly landed beside Rod.
"Marlene?"
Looking at the girl in front of him, Rhodes stared at each other with wide eyes in surprise, completely different from before, at this moment Marlene was wearing an incomparably gorgeous wide robe with gold trim on a white background. It was inlaid with countless bright and dazzling gems, emitting a faint magical brilliance along with Marlene's movements, not only that, but Rhodes also felt an unprecedented coercive and powerful aura coming from inside, although the aura flashed away, but it did not escape Rod's perception.
"What the hell is this ............"
"It's a long story, Rod, but we have more important things to do now, don't we?"
Hearing Marlene's answer, Rhodes was silent for a moment, then nodded, anyway, it was not too late to talk about this matter later. The immediate priority was to light the fire, which was the main reason why he had come here at the risk of danger, thinking of this, Rod turned around, looked at the fire in front of him, took a deep breath, and then, he stretched out his right hand and pressed it on the fire.
Soon, Rod's current quickly skipped through the lines of system prompts.
【Enter the ignition program of the tinder source】
【Ignition program of the tinder source is activated】
【Detect the Flame Awakener's Bloodline】
【Tinder Awakener Bloodline Matching】
【Genesis Dragon Soul Three Sequence Activation】
Very good, so far everything is going well, looking at the system prompt that quickly skipped in front of him, Rod couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. But at this moment, suddenly, the dazzling bunch of system prompts in front of him suddenly stopped. At the same time, in Rod's ears, the piercing "beep-" siren sounded again.
【Primordial Creation Dragon Soul Detected】
【Flame Source Replacement Sequence On】
[Forcibly converted from number 3 to zero]
【Dragon Soul Unawakened State Detected】
【Turn on the Dragon Soul Forced Awakening Program】
What is it..................!
Seeing these lines of system prompts that suddenly appeared, Rod was shocked, and he instinctively wanted to withdraw his right hand, but it was too late. At the moment when the system prompt appeared in this line. Rod felt a torrent of lightning burst from the palm of his right hand, rushing into his body, and then hitting his heart hard.
"Wooh!!"
This violent blow made Rod tremble, as if an invisible giant hammer had hit his heart heavily, making Rode's body bend involuntarily, and the completely unexpected attack made Rod involuntarily half-kneeling on the ground, and seeing this scene in front of him, Anne and Lijie also hurriedly ran over, but before they could come to Rode's side. A powerful force unswervingly pushed the two apart.
"Woo....................."
The blood all over his body seemed to be in reverse pain, Rod gritted his teeth, his facial features seemed to be completely isolated at this moment, not to mention looking at the system prompt in front of him, and even the call of Marlene and the others who were still close to his ears just now was completely blocked at this time, and Rhodes at the moment was like being in a dark space with nothing, except for the violent beating of his heart, he couldn't feel anything.
"Puff-p-p-"
The sound of the heart beating faster and faster. Rod gritted his teeth and clutched his hands to his chest. But that's just a reflex for him. His heart was beating so fast that it even gave Rhodes the illusion that he was about to break free from his body and break apart. The blood flowed rapidly, but as they flowed, the heat that had burned the entire body gradually disappeared and was replaced. It is a serenity, peace, and even a void existence. Soon, Rhodes felt this cold force fill his whole body, and everywhere this force went. It was as if my body had completely disappeared, and I didn't feel anything. It was as if darkness was devouring one's body, starting with the limbs, then the body, and finally the ...............
A cold touch came from his neck, and the next moment, the light suddenly exploded.
"It's ..............."
Rod opened his eyes in surprise, but what he saw at this moment was not the fire in front of him, on the contrary, he felt that his perspective seemed to have become some kind of satellite launched into the sky, quickly detached from the ground, and flew high into the sky. He saw the underground labyrinth that flashed in front of his eyes, followed by the tower that guarded the source of the fire, and he even saw the guardians and his own mercenaries, at this moment Chaos was about to break through the last line of defense and enter the tower, and those guardians and mercenaries had already begun to retreat, trying to escape into the shelter to deal with the final invasion of the people of Chaos. Then, Rod's perspective rose again, and he saw the night sky overhead, the white clouds, and the land that had been completely covered by the people of Chaos. Then, in front of Rod's eyes, the light erupted again, and the clean, pure light completely burst out from the sun-like fire suspended at the top of the tower. In an instant, the shadows of the entire world seemed to disappear completely, and even the outlines of those buildings were completely submerged in this dazzling white light.
The next moment, Rod's gaze regained, and the source of the fire appeared in front of him again.
"It's over..............."
The hall, which was originally a little dim, became extremely bright at this moment, and the surrounding stars began to flow, and the light of the stars reflected the entire Dragon Soul Hall incomparably brightly. And the little sun in front of Rhodes has now completely turned into a straight pillar of light and soared into the sky. And around this pillar of light, there was a circle of magic circles formed by ancient golden runes. They formed circles and slowly rotated around the pillars of light in front of them, revealing an incomparably strong aura.
"Hoo ..............."
Rod moved his body for a moment, shook his head, and finally let out a sigh after finding that he was not missing arms or legs. That strange accident just now almost scared Rod to death. He had never seen such a thing when he started the fire before.,He actually changed the fire sequence temporarily.,If this is posted on the forum, unless there is a picture as proof, I'm afraid no player will believe it.。
The so-called tinder sequence is the number of the power of the dragon soul contained in each tinder. One of them is the Dragon Soul of Judgment and Sanctions, the second is the Dragon Soul of Darkness, and the third is the Dragon Soul of Light. Players generally think that dragon soul sequences are fixed, and never think that they can be changed, this kind of thing is almost unheard of. Merely......... Dragon Soul Zero? Is there such a thing?
"Mr. Rhodes, are you alright?"
"Commander. It's all right, is it? ”
Rhodes came back from his thoughts when Lizzie and Anne's question, and he looked up at the crowd in front of him and nodded at them. "No problem, everything is normal, the fire has been fully activated, and now that the chaos outside has been completely isolated, those chaos monsters should have completely disappeared. Next, we just have to wait a while and be fine. ”
While answering the inquiries of the two. Rod turned his head to look at the system panel in front of him, at this moment his construction system had completely lost its original form, and lines of data were beating quickly on the screen in front of him, as if the system was being installed. This is no stranger to Rhodes, in the game, when the player activates the fire, the forces of order will completely purify the chaos in its area, while erasing all the negative factors caused by chaos. And after this step, it's like the operating system is trying to completely clean up the accumulation of unwanted errors that are likely to exist within itself. The entire territory will automatically "reset", and the player will be presented with all the data of the territory he currently has, including the remnants of the territory who are likely to survive in the Vault, as well as the Fortress or Magic Buildings that were once lost but can be reactivated under the power of Order, the circle, and the characteristics of the territory itself.
It's just that Rhodes is still a little curious about this. Because in the game, you can manipulate the remnants or something by clicking on the panel, and then circle them up like a strategy game, and let them do whatever they want. But in reality, these guys shouldn't be so obedient, even if they have been completely cleansed by the forces of order. They are also human beings with their own sanity. It's impossible for Rhodes to "build a house and add population", this group of guys just hold a few planks and tinker with them, and then build a house with a population of +5.
Although he had doubts about this, Rhodes still put this kind of thing aside, and this kind of thing will naturally be known after the territory is restarted. Now, he's going to solve a different problem. Thinking of this, Rod quickly called up his system panel, and then glanced at it. When he saw the message on his system panel, Rod was completely stunned.
[Name: Rod. Elantre】
[Race: Void Dragons]
[Race Reward: Law Suppression]
[Racial Identity: Vientiane Void]
……… Void Dragons.
Seeing this line of system prompts, Rod couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, he had vaguely realized that what happened after his inexplicable crossing was not ordinary. First of all, he travels through with his own body instead of the body in the game, but it will be his own body that is injured. Secondly, his ancestry inexplicably changed from human to mixed-race. Then, even in the face of an archangel like Lydia and a dragon royal family like Irene, Rhodes himself never felt the kind of coercion that was too strong to resist. And just before, after seeing the dragon soul activation program, Rod had already affirmed that he definitely had the dragon soul bloodline. With such a connection, the Dragon Soul of Light and him must be inseparable, although the Dragon of Law has a good friendship with him, but Rhodes asked himself that he was not so big to get the judgment and twins. In this way, the Dark Dragon and the Void Dragon that he slaughtered with his own hands are the most probable. Recalling the scene when he crossed over, the latter is the most likely. And now it seems that Rhodes was right.
Doesn't seem like anything has changed?
Thinking of this, Rod looked at his palm, and then touched his face and head, and there were no strange scales, no tail and horns or anything. It doesn't seem to be any different from ordinary people, but the stat values have been completely refreshed. The various attributes that were previously impossible to see clearly because of the question mark have all been revealed. However, no matter which number of values, it far exceeds the maximum range that the player can accumulate. The stat value of Strength is 28, Constitution is 33, Dexterity is 25, Will is 23, and Sense is 30. This is far superior to human beings in every attribute. Even angels and demons can't reach this level, and only the existence of the archangel or above who can have such perverted attributes is the archangel or above.
I really didn't expect that I would be able to enjoy the BOSS treatment one day.
Looking at the perverted attribute bar in front of him, Rod couldn't help but sigh secretly. I want to be a player at the beginning, and I drool every time I look at the attribute bar of those final bosses, and now I finally take turns in feng shui. I can be regarded as turning over and being the master. Thinking of this, Rod shook his head, then next, there is another question.
"Tell me now, Marlene."
Rod said as he looked at Marlene in front of her, Christie, and the other girl beside her. The young girl Rhodes remembered that he had seen her in the library, but at that time, he didn't take the girl too seriously, just as an ordinary native. I didn't expect the other party to have such an identity. As for Christie's identity, Rod is not very surprised, he guessed a long time ago that the other Christie is likely to be a demon god, and today it is just a complete confirmation of his guess. However, Marlene would actually be one of the Six Pillars Demon God, which was completely beyond Rhodes's prediction.
"How did you become the Demon God of the Six Pillars?"
"Not really, my lord."
Hearing Rod's inquiry, the first answer was not Marlene, but the opposite. Christie took a half-step forward and replied with a smile.
"Sister Marlene didn't become a six-pillar demon god. It's that she was originally a six-pillar demon god. ”
"Originally?"
Hearing Christie's answer, Rod frowned, and he felt more and more that something was out of the ordinary. This time, however, Christie didn't answer Rod's inquiry, just looked up at Marlene. Sensing Christie's gaze, Marlene took a half-step forward. Holding the staff in his hand, he asked softly.
"That......... If I'm not mistaken, Rod, your bloodline has awakened. ”
"That's right, look at the way you guy......... It seems to have been understood. Am I a Void Dragon? ”
"Yes, my lord."
On the other side of the moment, Alice, who had been silent, spoke, she stretched out her hand, stroked it out of thin air, and with the girl's movements, a book with a heavy black cover appeared in front of her.
"We, the Six Pillars Demon God, have been seeking, waiting for the Void Bloodline to appear again, and you are the target we have been waiting for. We have been waiting for you to come back to the world with the most precious bloodline, and now, as the record once established, you have come here to awaken the world that belongs to you. ”
"Let me explain."
At this moment, Marlene also walked up to Rod, looked up at his face, and then began to explain to him carefully. And under Marlene's explanation, Rod finally understood all of this.
It turned out that at the beginning of the very creation of the world, the territory of the Dragon Soul Continent was more than ten times larger than it is now, and all the people of order lived on this land at that time. And at that time, it was one of the most powerful dragon souls among the five dragons of creation——— the Void Dragon. It forcibly carved out a void space from the boundless chaos, and it was within this space that the other Four Dragons of Creation created concrete continents, skies, rivers, and life. In other words, if the other Creation Dragon Souls created the "World Soul Realm", then what the Void Dragon created was the "space" that contained this World Soul Realm, and because of this, on the boundless Void Dragon Soul, its territory was also the largest and most prosperous in the entire Dragon Soul Continent.
But......... According to Rod, the so-called spear shot the first bird, as the pillar of the Dragon Soul Continent, the Void Dragon, which has the largest piece of land, is naturally targeted by Chaos. In the end, after an extremely tragic struggle, in order to protect the most rearly space where the life of the order is located, the Void Dragon used itself as a bait to completely block the attack of Chaos. And this also caused the land of the Void Clan to be completely occupied by chaos and turned into a land of chaos.
At that time, the Chaos Offensive was unprecedentedly powerful, and even the Six-Pillar Demon God, who was the Void Dragon Clan, could not completely resist this attack, and in the end, five of the Demon Gods were defeated and died for various reasons. As the first of the Six Pillars Demon God, Christie escaped to the Star Spirit Temple, one of the Seven Illusion Realms, and used her strength to protect the last barrier before Chaos led to the present world.
And at that time, Marlene, who was one of the six pillar demon gods, was the predecessor of the demon god of ——— knowledge, and Magelint was also one of them. However, no demon god wants to fall. It's as if Alice had bound her soul to an eternal library. Magrinte uses her knowledge. Having made a deal with the clan that guarded her, she sealed the essence of her soul and flesh into the Shania family that only the Demon God could master, using their bodies as a vessel to preserve the power of her soul and flesh. In this way, the cycle continues, in the hope of a day of resurrection. That's why she ordered the Shania family to create a bloodline seal, and gave that instruction. Because you can be qualified to light the fire here. Naturally, he is the heir of the Void Dragon, and in this way, he will also truly awaken.
"But what about the soul from before?"
Hearing Marlene's explanation, Rod couldn't help frowning. Because what Marlene said now is completely different from what she said before. It can even be said that the words of the two are completely contradictory. In the face of Rod's question, Marlene shook her head slightly.
"The other one is something I left over from my previous self, like an ignition. In order to avoid being discovered and used by other humans in the future. The essence of the demon god that sleeps in the flesh will not awaken on its own initiative. Unless you dedicate your body here, after experiencing death, you will be fully awakened when you come into contact with another doppelganger that I have created. And as for that doppelganger......... Perhaps it was because she had been in the fire for too long that she lost the ability to distinguish commands, thus confusing her mission. ”
I see.
Hearing Marlene's explanation, Rod nodded. I have to admit that this demon god is really not a demon god of knowledge, and he thinks about it very well. If the power of the demon god is discovered by humans. It's easy to take advantage of. Therefore, it is hidden in the depths of the body and completely sealed. But this is clearly not enough. That's why she designed an ignition device as a double safe. In this way, if it is not ignited, then no matter how powerful the power of the demon god is contained in Marlene's body, it will definitely not awaken on its own. That is——— it is useless to die no matter how many times.
"So, the next question is the most embarrassing."
Rhodes quietly stared at Marlene's eyes in front of him, those burgundy eyes shone with a faint soul brilliance. It looks so fascinating.
"How can I believe that you are still the same Marlene? And not a substitute for a body occupied by a demon god? ”
That's right, unlike the other Christie who lives in Christie's body, Marlene doesn't have two souls in front of her. She is Marlene, and she is also the demon god Magellinte. So. In front of Rod, is she "a demon god with the memory of Marlene" or "a demon god with the memory of a demon god"?
"I can't answer that, Rod."
Faced with Rod's last question, Marlene still smiled and shook her head.
"What I have is the memories of the Demon God, and our memories have fused together. I used to be a demon god, and now I am also a demon god. We are not two individuals, but we have always been the same being. ”
Hearing Marlene's answer, Lijie frowned, and Anne had a puzzled expression. Hearing Marlene's answer, Rhodes was silent for a moment, then he reached out and pressed Marlene's head.
"Welcome back, Marlene."
Feeling Rod's touch, Marlene closed her eyes and gently leaned against Rod's chest.
"I'm back, Rhodes ..............."
At the same time, a line of system prompts appeared in front of Rod's eyes again.
[The reset of the world has been completed, and the system will be restarted soon]
[The countdown to the system reboot begins———3,2,1——]
【System Restart】
Then, a dazzling, soft glow erupted again, enveloping everything completely. (To be continued......)
