Chapter 376: Floating towards Tai Sui
The three-piece fishing set of the old man in straw raincoat and hat is used to fish for giant turtles. Aozhu describes the giant turtle as a strange beast that carries the world on its back.
"They are a very special kind of life, one of the prototypes of life that evolved from the rules of the world. They usually carry huge islands or land on their backs. As the original prototype of life, the bones of the turtle are extremely valuable, and the turtle beads are even rarer. Giant turtles are also the favorite prey and collection of the dragon clan."
"Giant claws are difficult to capture directly. Once they feel threatened, their bodies will quickly change from solid to virtual and return to the rules of the world, making them very difficult to fish out."
"So fishing for giant turtles requires extreme patience. Lord Straw Hat and Old Man once caught two giant turtles. The shortest one took three epochs, and the longest one took a total of six epochs."
Lu Yao calculated that according to his personal experience, an era would take at least hundreds of years. In other words, the old man in the straw raincoat and hat would fight with the fish for at least three hundred years, showing amazing perseverance.
In addition, we have to consider that it is not always possible to catch fish in one go. If we take into account the more failed attempts, the more time and energy we waste.
The old man in the straw raincoat and hat really loves fishing.
Lu Yao didn’t know whether the Dragon Tooth Hook would be effective against Tai Sui, but if it was useful, it could reduce a lot of operational troubles.
Once the dragon tooth hook acts on Tai Sui, he can use the Aozhu to observe Tai Sui from a close perspective in real time, and make further careful observations and in-depth understanding.
Tai Sui is not the biggest danger, the unknown is.
Fishing for Tai Sui is the biggest project Lu Yao has launched so far. He summoned all his capable subordinates to conduct repeated negotiations.
Ju's point of view is very rational: "Navigator, Tai Sui has the ability to devour the world, and it is difficult for props to exist outside the world. Once the dragon tooth hook touches Tai Sui, destruction is only a matter of time."
Lu Yao agreed with this statement.
His goal was very simple. He wanted to use the dragon tooth hook as a disposable detector so that he could observe the specific situation of Tai Sui through the Aozhu at close range. The loss was worth it.
"I think this plan is feasible."
Slymod stated clearly: "Tai Sui is currently in a weak state. The Dragon Tooth Hook originates from the Tai Sui Hook, so it is more likely to be effective against Tai Sui. However, a more detailed and appropriate plan is needed to cast the hook. I think it is better to use a world as bait and hide the Dragon Tooth Hook in it... This way, it is not easy to alarm Tai Sui."
Lu Yao thought this was a good idea.
Fishing requires bait, which certainly cannot be used on the Continent Island, but there are many around the ordinary gravel world and vortex world, so this kind of consumable is not a problem.
As a newcomer who participated in the meeting between the gods and apostles for the first time, the Dark Sun Dragon spoke very carefully: "I think what the adults said makes sense. I have seen the dragon tooth. It is the dragon tooth of Zunlong, and its origin is extraordinary. Although the dragon tooth itself fell out due to tooth decay... it is strong enough. If used as a fishing hook to deal with Tai Sui, it can last for a while."
Isabel gave another perspective: "Sir, I suggest that Chi Lian be involved in this operation."
"Chi Lian has a deep connection with Tai Sui and is naturally friendly to him. Chi Lian and Longya Gou will work together to bring more reliable intelligence and verify it with Ao Zhu."
Lu Yao felt a little reluctant.
After much difficulty in training a young apostle, Xiao Chi did a good job on Zhou Island. He completed the integration of the Red Thorn Tribe and repelled the Ben Cavalry. Zhou Island was entering a period of rapid development of civilization... It was very risky to temporarily call him to perform an extremely dangerous mission.
After thinking it over again and again, Lu Yao decided to seek the opinions of the parties involved.
After receiving the oracle, Chi Lian said without hesitation: "Great Lord Yaoshen, you trust and recognize me and give me this mission. I am willing to approach Tai Sui and further explore the secrets of the Star God."
It was unknown whether it was to prove himself or to fight against his fate, but Chi Lian was extremely determined. He knew that he might die in the stomach of Tai Sui, but he still volunteered to go to the front line.
Lu Yao finally agreed.
The preparatory work was carried out in an orderly manner. All the computing power units in Zhuri Bay were activated, and gravel worlds with suitable sizes and orbital distances were selected.
Slemmod and Isabel simply transformed the gravel world, rooted the dragon tooth hook deep under the world and fixed it.
Chi Lian arranged all matters concerning the Hongji tribe after he left.
He selected members of the Redthorn tribe who were good at farming, animal husbandry, hunting, fishing, logging and expression, and asked them to perform their respective duties, lead the people in labor, and enrich their skills and experience.
Ghost's own photo will serve as the deputy leader when Chi Lian leaves, leading the entire tribe to continue developing.
Finally, Chi Lian said goodbye to Nefeli: "I will fly to the outer space, face Tai Sui, whom I have always feared, and complete the mission given to me by the gods. Perhaps I will not be able to return."
"Originally I wanted to return the vengeful spirits you gave me to you, but after thinking about it, I decided to take them with me. If I die in a foreign land, the vengeful spirits will also dissipate and will no longer add new pressure and troubles to people."
"As for the vengeful spirits of Zhou Island, please bear with me. If this world is full of complaints and dissatisfaction, it means there are too many problems. Please change it."
Neferi said earnestly: "Yes, Your Majesty. I am waiting for your triumphant return from outer space."
…
Everything went right.
Lu Yao accelerated the bait gravel world through the vortex world, and completed the launch within a specific orbit and distance according to the suggestions given by Ju.
The bait world accelerated towards Tai Sui.
The distance between each other is getting closer.
Not long after, the Gravel World arrived at the spatial range of Tai Sui's radiation, and its flying speed slowed down visibly to the naked eye.
Finally, Tai Sui's broad arms touched the gravel world in the black void.
It woke up immediately.
The thick five fingers gently grasped the world, just like a child grasping a cicada that fell into his arms.
This time it did not swallow it immediately, but raised its hand and put the gravel world in front of the golden mask-like face, as if looking at something.
Lu Yao noticed that the Aozhu next to the Zhou Island Temple was emitting light.
He double-clicked the item.
A picture within a picture popped up on the Aozhu.
In the center of the picture, Chi Lian was guarding the dragon tooth hook underground. He looked very nervous, holding the dragon tooth hook tightly with one hand, closing his eyes and taking deep breaths.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Then the whole picture suddenly became chaotic and rolling. After a while, the picture in the picture stabilized again, and Chi Lian, holding the dragon tooth hook, was already in a strange environment.
The environment here is made up entirely of blocks, most of which are gray, with some light blue, light green, and blue-purple, basically cold colors. Pale flames are floating in some places on the wall, just like a dark block dungeon.
Lu Yao switched his perspective and looked at the outside world.
At this time, Tai Sui had stuffed the bait Gravel World into his mouth, with white smoke coming out of his head, and he was enjoying the food.
In other words, the Red Snake and the Dragon Tooth Hook have entered Tai Sui's body.
Lu Yao continued to observe the Aozhu projection.
The inside and outside of Tai Sui are consistent, both made up of square stones.
Its body is wriggling and partially reorganizing and changing, and the color of the cube's surface is changing accordingly, as if it is a manifestation of some kind of emotion or physiological state of Tai Sui.
Chi Lian, holding the dragon tooth hook, was pushed and moved by the environment and finally fell into a large sunken pit.
This place has a large number of broken square stones, debris and ashes. There is some kind of air flow rising and falling in the air. The glowing almighty stones are sucked away by the rising air flow, and some scattered square stones slowly float down from the sky and fall to the ground.
Chi Lian inserted the dragon tooth hook into the pit, making sure it was firmly attached.
He looked around, and a cloud of thoughts floated above his head: "This is inside Tai Sui's body... I was born from here too."
Lu Yao in front of the screen breathed a sigh of relief.
The Tai Sui project was launched with initial success.
Lu Yao clicked on Chi Lian’s avatar and the scene jumped to Tai Sui’s body.
Unlike usual, Tai Sui seemed to have some kind of rules and restrictions. Lu Yao could neither type on Chi Lian's head nor change the perspective. The perspective was completely locked on Chi Lian. The mouse could only move within the screen range where Chi Lian was.
Lu Yao opened a can of latte and drank it while watching Chi Lian's actions inside.
Chi Lian looked at the deep pit where he was. There was rubble and dust all around him. The only way to get out was to fly upwards.
Inadvertently, Lu Yao's mouse scanned an entry among the gravel.
…
[Thrust-Repelling Gloves LV3] (left): Faith +1/hour, Defense +3.
A pair of spiked gloves, scarred by battle, but also exceptionally strong.
…
A small black shadow appeared in the gravel and dust, which was the boxing glove.
Lu Yao was stunned.
Are there still some fire props retained in Tai Sui's body?
A bold idea flashed through his mind.
Is there a possibility... to let Chi Lian bring back some local specialties from here?
