Chapter 681: Natural Disaster Competition

Lu Yao read the autobiography of Xue Li, the alien visitor.

She came to the Resurrection Kingdom through [When the Stars Shine] and exchanged consciousness with a local girl named Mia.

The [Dagos] where Sydney is located is a special world. The underground [magic well] blew out, causing deathly aura to cover the earth, and various monsters grew wildly. Some of the locals did not climb up the giant trees that were also growing and rising due to the magic well, while others hid underground.

The Dagoths have mastered two technologies, the [Magic Bottle] and the [Rune].

The former can store the magic energy gushing out of the magic well, while the latter is the wisdom bestowed upon the Dagos by their [Thousand-Faced God].

The Gudagus have always used magic bottles, and their daily lives are inseparable from this seemingly inexhaustible energy storage prop.

Runes are a targeted use of magical energy and require specific materials to unleash their power.

Hunter Xueli said that the bow she used was engraved with runes, which were combined in a specific order to form a magical spell. This spell restrained and shaped the power, acted on the prop to cast the spell, and then penetrated and bound the prey through the arrow.

Lu Yao felt strange when he saw this.

The Dagoths made it very complicated, selecting male and female users, corresponding to specific materials, and customizing rune combinations... Only with the support of a high-consumption magic energy carrier like the magic horn can the spell be cast in the end.

Traditional spellcasting requires the user to possess spell abilities and then consume mana to cast spells.

In the kingdom of mysticism, people would even use spell scrolls to cast spells.

Both of these methods of casting are simpler and more convenient.

Xue Li said, "I don't know the details, but runes were once very powerful. They could be used to control and govern many magic wells, and to tame various monsters. These can be seen in the broken stone carvings and clay tablets in the ruins on the ground."

"But as the elders of Tree Village continued to die, the powerful bows and props in the village were either lost or damaged, and most of them are no longer usable."

"When Grandma Qiao was young, our village was very strong!"

An expression with shining eyes appeared on Xueli's head.

She tried to explain: "We used to have javelins that could shoot from one magic tree to another, and could shoot flying monsters down from high altitudes."

"We have large bows that can shoot five arrows at a time, and each arrow can accurately hit the prey's eyes and throat."

"There is also a flying shield. As long as people step on the flying shield, they can control it to fly. No monster in the sky or on the ground can catch up with its speed!"

…

A sullen expression appeared on the hunter's head. "It's a pity that no one can repair these high-level magic items. If one is broken, there will be one less. Now we can only use the simplest bows and grappling hooks. Really, we were very strong before..."

Maocao comforted him: "Every civilization has its ups and downs. This is a normal cycle. I believe that the Dagoths must have made great achievements in civilization, otherwise they would not be able to control the supernatural power of the magic well."

"Yes, yes, that's what I meant. You said it very well."

Xue Li continued, "It's a pity that the Thousand-Faced God is not very strong. If he were as powerful as Lord Yao, Dagus would have a chance to be rescued."

Lu Yao is no longer surprised.

Look at the Messenger of the Gods next door. His attitude towards the Kingdom of God is very clear. If it can produce population and faith, it is worth further investment. If it falls into high-risk or continuous loss, restart the civilization. If it still doesn't work, just destroy or abandon it directly, and the next one will be better.

For most gods, civilization is just a tool of production, and no civilization is irreplaceable.

Not to mention that [Dagos] is flooded with magic wells. The cost of repairing such a world is extremely high. It would be better to create a new civilization.

Lu Yao logged into the committee's database and entered [Rune].

A bunch of related entries suddenly popped up on the page.

"…Odin hung upside down from the World Tree, wounded by a spear, and sacrificed himself to himself. During the long ritual, runes gradually condensed within the World Tree, and were picked up and collected by Odin one by one."

"After Odin's death in Ragnarok, further development of runes was completely halted, and there are only a handful of civilizations that have mastered runes."

It turned out to be Odin.

Lu Yao followed the vines to find the melons.

He found out that among Odin's many titles, one of them was "The Thousand-Faced God", so it seemed that the "Wheel Star" in Dagoth's world was left by him.

This Norse God King did not intentionally abandon the Dagoth civilization, He just died.

Lu Yao decided to rescue the Dagus world.

In terms of benefits, [Magic Bottle] and [Rune] are very attractive.

In terms of personal interest, Lu Yao is also very interested in the local [Magic Well].

Where is the source of the magic energy that keeps gushing out from the ground? Are magic wells common in all worlds, or are they just the product of the special environment where Dagus lives?

As a special energy world, the Dagus world itself has extremely high research and reference value to the Yao clan.

Coordinates are required to complete world docking.

Lu Yao plans to use the power of the [Star Casting Wheel] to let Xue Li return to Dagus to build a statue, and then let the villagers offer their faith, so that they can be positioned through population options.

But in reality, the two girls never got swapped back.

From Lu Yao's bird's-eye view, Xue Li was eating everywhere, and the little panda Zhi Chong next to her couldn't help but persuade her.

"Eat less... your body won't be able to take it anymore."

"We Dagus don't want to starve!"

Xue Li held a chicken drumstick in her hand, her mouth full: "I have to eat my fill before I can go back and help everyone fight the disaster."

"But it's useless even if you eat it. This is Mia's body. Your body is still in Dagus..."

Xueli said: "Eating full in spirit is also eating full. I want to eat 'sweet and cold'!"

“…”

Maocao explained: "My Lord, the duration of these three [Times of Shining Stars] was different. The first one was the shortest, lasting about 3 hours, the second one lasted 14 hours, and this one was the longest, lasting more than 5 days."

"And the intervals between each time seemed to be irregular. The first and second times were separated by a month, but the second and third times were separated by only two days."

Lu Yao was also at a loss.

The description of [When the Stars Shine] makes it clear that the lives of random individuals briefly overlap.

Then use the backup method.

Lu Yao finds Finn, the Lord of Tides.

Although this professional spirit collector enjoyed mining, he was also very serious when it came to business: "Master Zhengshen, through the turbulent tides, we can sense the impacted world. But it will take a long time to screen these tidal creatures one by one, perhaps hundreds of years."

Lu Yao asked him to try it first.

"yes."

The Lord of Tide turned into a ball of blue light that shot up into the sky and quickly disappeared without a trace.

While waiting on both fronts, Lu Yao also convened a meeting of gods, allowing his subordinates to express their opinions and pool their wisdom.

Before the deity could speak, a prompt popped up in the simulator.

【Mia offers a sacrifice.】

Mia?

Isn't she eating and drinking here? Lu Yao immediately came to his senses. It wasn't Xueli, it was the real Mia.

He double-clicked to view.

The perspective jumped to a new scene that Lu Yao had never seen before.

This place is located on a giant tree, with houses built between the branches and twigs. In the center of view is a wooden statue of the god Yao.

In the heavy snow, a small female figure in a fur coat was praying in front of the statue. It was Mia. Several children nearby were also kneeling like her, but most of the adults further away were just watching.

There is a text box above Mia's head: "Lord Yaoshen, the people of the village have offered you a sacrifice, which is their most precious thing..."

On the stone table in front of the statue, there are [Gifts] on the left and [Sacrifices] on the right.

The offering contained a strange-looking bronze vessel. Its upper part was a funnel, and its lower part was a large jar with many symbols engraved on the surface, like some kind of specially made large container or sacrificial vessel.

Lu Yao moved the mouse to the offering.

…

[Magic Bottle]: Can contain and store a portion of the energy gushing out of the magic well.

【Charge】

Briefly charge the item to allow it to carry a small amount of energy.

…

Well done Mia.

Lu Yao was overjoyed.

While Xue Li was still eating and drinking to her heart's content, Mia was organizing everyone to build a statue and offer sacrifices to the gods in order to gain attention.

The children of the Yao clan are still clear-headed.

Lu Yao dragged the mouse to zoom out and observed the local situation.

The entire world of Dagoth was filled with black fog. There were no settlements or cities on the ground, only holes of varying sizes. The holes that tore the earth apart spewed out black smoke columns, as if they were being burned to ashes.

These holes appear as [Magic Wells].

There are all kinds of monsters around the magic well, their levels range from LV40 to LV90, and there are a lot of them, fighting for the territory near the magic well like fighting for water. The closer to the magic well, the higher the level of the monster.

The last living area of ​​mankind is on the giant trees. The villages on the trees are scattered and there are few people. After the catastrophe destroyed the civilization on the ground, the Dagos people returned to a more primitive way of life.

These trees were also transformed and mutated by the demonic energy. They were as tall and majestic as mountains. On the ground, the roots of the giant trees were flexible and powerful tentacles that would strangle and hunt any monsters that approached, sucking them dry and turning them into their own nutrients.

However, not all giant trees are so strong.

Lu Yao observed that the roots of many giant trees had been cut off by other monsters, and the trunks had become dry, yellow and rotten, and could collapse at any time.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

There is no time to lose.

Lu Yao ordered Mao Cao to immediately form a rescue army in the Resurrection Kingdom to rescue the Dagos world. The first task was to ensure the safety of Mia, a Yao girl who was stranded in the local area, and to rescue the nearby Dagos people and eliminate the monsters around Shu Village to ensure the safety and stability of the area.

"Yes, sir."

The calico cat took the order and immediately started a national emergency mobilization with King Raymond.

Lu Yao clicked on the [Ultra-Long-Distance Portal] in front of the Shu Village statue, connecting this place with the Resurrection Kingdom to facilitate the arrival of the rescue army.

At this time, there was no one around the statue, even Mia, who had been praying devoutly before, disappeared.

He couldn't help feeling a little depressed.

Brother, you are so busy running around, your patience in praying is a little too poor.

Even if God saves the world, it will take some time.

Soon, Lu Yao discovered something unusual.

The snowflakes in the air solidified, as if frozen by some unknown force.

Lu Yao expanded his view to the nearby virtual space.

There is a strange flat area above the world of Dagus, where the black smoke is neatly cut off, forming a strange horizontal line.

Can't be so unlucky? Lu Yao immediately called Finn, the Lord of Tides, and asked him to go and make an on-site inspection.

At the same time, Lu Yao also activated a gravel world contact [Dages] to complete the anchorage. Now he is familiar with this operation.

Displayed on screen.

[Discover the anchorable world: Dagoth]

[Do you want to connect this world to the Tree of Sylvanus? ]

[It is estimated that 64418923 faiths will be consumed]

With 64 million beliefs, this world doesn’t look simple.

Lu Yao nodded yes.

Then a line of red words appeared on the simulator.

【Anchoring failed due to abnormal rules nearby. 】

Lu Yao tried clicking repeatedly, but it kept failing.

It seems to be related to the abnormal environment here.

After a moment.

"Master Zhengshen, it is indeed a [Virtual Mirror]... This is in the area near the border zone of the leap zone, very close to the virtual mirror above."

The Lord of Tide was sweating profusely. "Although the virtual mirror has not yet touched this world, just approaching it will cause the movement of all things to stagnate. For safety reasons, it is best to stay away from here... to avoid unpredictable risks. After all, it is a natural disaster, you don't need to bother with it."

Lu Yao frowned.

Reason told him that Finn was right, and the safest way was to take Mia and the locals away and away from this unknown danger.

But running away without firing a shot is not his Yao style.

Whether you can win or not, you have to fight to know.

Even if the opponent is a natural disaster, Lu Yao will not tolerate it.

Then again, you are a natural disaster, and I also have a natural disaster in my hand, so why should I retreat? Lu Yao decided to clash with the virtual mirror.

He activated a world that was destroyed by the Red Void, and moved it across the signpost to above [Dagos].

Then Lu Yao activated the vortex cannon.

Select the ammunition to be loaded: 10 micro-gravel-level cannons.

Accelerate into orbit.

The acceleration is completed in 3 seconds.

Adjust the angle.

Lu Yao clicked the mouse and selected the target - the Chixu world.

emission!

After passing through the road goddess's signpost, 10 gravel cannons suddenly accelerated and crashed into the suspended red virtual world at a high speed. Red fireworks suddenly bloomed and a dust storm instantly covered the surrounding area.

Lu Yao watched the changes on the screen nervously.

He saw that the originally invisible cross-section was broken by the red dust storm, and circles of ripples appeared on its surface.

Chi Xu completely tore the virtual mirror in the center of the impact zone and broke through to the other side, just like a high-speed airflow penetrating a transparent film, forming an expanding red inverted triangular cone at the rear.

At this time, the hidden structure of the virtual mirror also showed visible damage and wrinkles. Ripples were rippling in the virtual space, and white arcs of light flashed at the edge of the impact zone, as if some kind of precision machinery had a short circuit.

Lu Yao couldn't help but feel proud.

This is the charm of X-level natural disasters!

Who is afraid of who?

Lu Yao was not entirely obsessed with his superiors, he also had objective considerations.

When facing Chixu, even a strong one like Tai Sui would give way. This was the only opponent Tai Sui showed respect for, as all others were eaten and crushed.

When facing Tai Sui, Chi Xu would also try to circumvent it. Since Chi Xu itself is just a dust storm radiation, there is no so-called intellectual avoidance. The biggest reason is that Tai Sui changed the natural rules around it, allowing Chi Xu to slip away.

The [Virtual Mirror] in front of him obviously does not have the ability to flexibly change the rules. Its current effects are [Time Stop] and [Pressing into the Mirror].

It is more like a phenomenon caused by special rules.

Lu Yao tried to anchor the Dagus world again.

This time no red letters appeared.

Anchoring successful!

Lu Yao felt relieved, it was indeed because of the interference of the virtual mirror.

He immediately controlled [Dagus], migrated through the landmarks, and arrived at the circular circle group of Yunzhong Temple.

After completing this step, Lu Yao finally relaxed.

Strategic goal achieved!

He looked at the screen with a relaxed mood.

Chixu was still spreading violently in all directions.

The virtual mirror cannot be observed directly, but after being ignited it can be identified by the way it distorts space and the ripples it emits.

Chixu burned a hole in the virtual mirror, and then floated and stretched to the other side. It seemed that in order to ignite and burn the virtual mirror, a lot of Chixu's energy would be consumed.

Lu Yao was very satisfied with the result.

Today we are having a natural disaster competition. It will stop when the time is right and it will only determine the winner, not life or death.

withdraw.
