Chapter 293 Letting Go of Your Knot
The "egg" has been emitting a strange halo, which makes people feel a little dizzy. An irresistible power lingers in the heart, making people feel a kind of awe after their life level has been completely suppressed.
However, unlike the Warcraft Morphidi, this feeling is not evil, but rather comfortable, as if being accepted and healed.
"Is it the Light type?"
"It's not like that. It's not a natural element, and it's certainly not a dark element. Or rather, it can't be described as leaning towards a particular element. Its aura is more lofty, very complex, and encompasses a lot."
"So, even here, Iron Heart is still silent? Do we have to touch it? Or is it not what we're looking for?"
"It is!" Mu Zhong suddenly raised his voice and chanted, "The Heart of Life, the energy crystallized after the death of a god, has the ability to suppress the surge of the gods. To use it, you can plant the World Tree on the Heart of Life. Then you will have the ability to absorb the power of the god's corpse, and there is a certain probability of breaking through the limitations of this world."
After listening to this, Wei Huan pondered these words over and over in his mind several times. When he looked up again, he felt at ease.
The overall situation of this world has been determined.
He won.
After Mu Zhong finished reading, he also looked at Wei Huan with admiration and said, "Such a complex achievement, and you actually managed it directly. I can almost imagine how long humans would stay in this world before they can find a trick and get the truth if it weren't for you."
Wei Huan murmured, "Perhaps until destruction."
This response was overly arrogant, but Mu Zhong didn't laugh. He saw a lot of pain in Wei Huan's eyes. In fact, after arriving in the sixth-level world, there was always something he couldn't understand flickering in Wei Huan's eyes. Occasionally, he even suspected he saw tears. But he never asked, nor did he want to know the truth. He knew that Wei Huan was great at this moment, and that he loved him very much, which was enough.
Wei Huan calmed down and vented his frustration in the battle.
The battle lasted for five days. Wei Huan used up more than a hundred super energy storage tanks in three rounds, and the Dharma image of the Dark Beast King was blown up six times before he completely killed the treasure chest monster that was never going to die.
During this killing process, he went all the way back from the bottom of the sea and passed through an area covered with seaweed that was controlled by the divine surge.
The level 8 arrow tower performed its duty again. The seaweed was chopped into pieces and was almost used as pig feed. Then, it was easily killed by the challengers on the war platform after repeated attacks.
When the clear sea water appeared in front of him again, Wei Huan breathed a sigh of relief and his tense back relaxed.
“I’m back!”
"it's over……"
"Hahaha, I finally survived!!"
The deep sea that I was afraid of before now seems so familiar, just like returning to the world from hell, with a clear view before my eyes.
Cheers rang in his ears. Wei Huan looked at the seaweeds that were quickly left behind, looking furious and helpless. He closed his eyes and pinched his forehead.
Of course he can still kill, with 300% energy recovery and more than 100 super energy tanks, it doesn't matter if he keeps fighting at this stage.
But my nerves were tense, and the fierce battle felt like someone was cutting back and forth in my brain with a blunt object, causing a dull pain all the time.
A hand reached out, pushed his hand away and rubbed his forehead. Wei Huan relaxed and enjoyed it, closing his eyes and said, "Don't you want to take a break?"
"You've been the one working so hard these past few days. It's never been my turn to rest. You even have dark circles under your eyes. This battle has dragged on for quite a while."
"I just want to eliminate as many Divine Surges as possible, as well as the seaweed that keeps creeping upwards. The World Tree is here, and when the environment needs cleaning up, we can't just sit back and watch. It's just a matter of convenience."
"I know. After this battle, we can rest for a long time. Do you want to go back and get some sleep first?"
Wei Huan nodded, but didn't go back to sleep. He opened his eyes, looked at Mu Zhong and said, "There are still many undead that haven't reached level six. They've been randomly upgrading in the battles these days. I'll go and adjust them."
Wei Huan then stood up, still holding Mu Zhong's hand, carefully observing his expression before nodding: "I'll leave the rest to you. Also, be careful with General Qiao Xi's side. We'll discuss everything after I get back."
After saying this, Wei Huan left. Fighting was his job, and other trivial matters were handled by Mu Zhong. The two of them divided the work and cooperated with each other in a tacit understanding.
Wei Huan went all the way back to the room and went directly to the Undead Ranch. He readjusted the order of upgrades before coming out to take a bath.
He took a nap in the bathtub. The soft and warm water massaged him, and the rushing white noise helped to relieve his tense brain. After only a light sleep for half a day, Wei Huan felt that most of his energy was restored when he woke up.
He stood up to the sound of dripping water, and walked out of the bathroom with a bath towel wrapped around his waist. He saw Commander Dong Chujian in military uniform sitting on the sofa in the living room, smiling at him.
Seeing him come out, Commander Dong stood up and said with a smile: "Well done, because of you, our human race has survived the great catastrophe. From now on, we have a bright future and a grand vision!"
Wei Huan clenched his fists suddenly, his forehead throbbing with a tense expression. Why was Commander Dong in his bedroom?
His eyebrows stood up and he wanted to speak, but his voice was stuck in his throat.
At this time, Captain Fang's laughter came from behind him. He patted his shoulder with his thick palm and said, "Wei Huan is amazing. He finally passed such a difficult level. Seeing how well he is now, I can rest in peace."
It was Captain Fang who was speaking, but the person who came in front of him turned out to be Jacques.
Jacques said, "Captain, thank you for your hard work. The human race has escaped certain defeat. Thanks to you, I can finally rest assured."
Agris came out from behind the other side and laughed: "I didn't realize that it was you who changed the fate of mankind in the end."
Behind her, an angel appeared, flashing a holy light. It was the face of Jiang Yue that had transformed into an angel after her death. Now, with a full smile, she said, "I can finally go. Goodbye."
When the last two words appeared, Wei Huan seemed to be pushed by something, his body suddenly leaned back, and fell all the way down into the warm water.
"call……"
He suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the empty bathroom. In the steaming mist, he stared at the shimmering water in front of him.
After a while, Wei Huan blinked vigorously, and finally buried his entire face in the water. When the last trace of heat in the corners of his eyes dissipated, he smiled.
In fact, Wei Huan could hardly remember how he had spent the past half month.
He thought he had been sober and calm, but looking back now, he seemed to have been dominated by a special emotion, perhaps panic, or extreme sadness, which made him want to do something like crazy to save everything.
This was a period of time that was almost controlled by instinct. Fortunately, he succeeded in the end. In his dreams, the heroes who were imprinted in the deepest part of his memory came to say goodbye to him. As they left with a smile, Wei Huan also found that the things that he had been brooding about seemed to have left with them.
It feels so good to be reborn again. It’s worth the trip.
“Clatter—”
Wei Huan stood up from the water and this time went straight to the bed, fell down and fell asleep. He slept so soundly that the sky was dark and the sun and moon were invisible.
He slept so soundly that he didn't think about going to the Professional Temple, nor did he care about the Undead Ranch. During this time, he didn't even notice that Mu Chong had come twice. It was as if he had made up for two lifetimes of sleep in one go, and he woke up with a backache.
He opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling. The scenes before he went to sleep reappeared in his mind. Wei Huan said in a hoarse voice: "Butler, I'm hungry."
"Okay, Captain. I've already notified the head chef to prepare the meal. Do you also want to notify Deputy Captain Mu?"
"Yeah." Wei Huan responded. He missed Mu Zhong very much. He had already fulfilled the regrets of his previous life. What followed was the future for him and Mu Zhong. He wanted to see him, and he wanted to see him now.
Wei Huan slept for a day and a half, which was actually not very long, but it was a little rare for Wei Huan.
Wei Huan seemed to be carrying a heavy burden on his shoulders, spurring him on to keep moving forward and striving to become stronger all the time. This feeling required no one around him, even those who paid attention could notice the excessive pressure on him, otherwise he would not have been able to reach the height he is at today in just one year.
Mu Zhong didn't know what Wei Huan was going through or what he was upset about. He only knew that if Wei Huan wanted to sleep, he would let him sleep. During this time, no matter what happened, he would protect him and give him what he wanted.
Now that Wei Huan was awake, he called him over and went over happily. As expected, he saw the man who was full of energy after a good sleep.
The man was standing on the balcony, gazing into the distance with a clear face. The clear sea water seemed like light falling from above his head, shining on his profile.
When he heard the voice and turned around, looking at him and smiling, Mu Zhong heard the sound of his heart beating faster.
"Boom! Boom!"
"You..." Mu Zhong started to speak, his voice inexplicably hoarse. He cleared his throat and felt his ears inexplicably hot. His heartbeat was so loud that he was worried that the other party would hear it.
This is so weird, why is my heart fluttering for no reason? They are already an old married couple, and it’s not like they just discovered Wei Huan’s handsomeness today.
But Wei Huan is really handsome today!
Mu Zhong didn't know how to describe it. He had never felt that kind of light and bright feeling from Wei Huan before.
The man has always been like a blood-stained knife drawn from its sheath, sharp, hard and cold. Even if he occasionally gets scorching hot, he will return to silence after leaving the bed.
He had never been curious about why this happened. He always assumed that men were born leaders and always remained calm.
Now I realize why he never thought of another possibility? After all, the man is only 21 years old.
He is so young, yet he shoulders the responsibility of all mankind. Is he really happy?
"What's wrong?" Wei Huan looked at Mu Zhong with a puzzled look.
Mu Zhong stepped forward with a smile and said, "Open your mouth."
Wei Huan opened his mouth in confusion, and something was stuffed into it. He took a sip, and the cool, sweet taste filled his head. "Sugar?"
"Mint candy." Mu Zhong said.
"Why?" Wei Huan didn't understand why he was given candy for no reason. He didn't like sweet things.
"Just eat it, why bother asking so many questions?" Mu Zhong smiled and took out a candy from his wrist, peeled it open and put it into his mouth, then smiled at Wei Huan.
The two of them quietly finished the candy in their mouths before starting the formal conversation.
Mu Zhong said, "A total of 14 people were rescued. Aside from two who are still unconscious and may not wake up again, the remaining 12 are all awake. They are now isolated in Mo Yu's car. However, Xu Qingqiang is accompanying Mo Yu and he remains in that car to treat the injured. Without your permission, no one in their tank can return to the main vehicle."
Wei Huan nodded after listening and signaled him to move on to the next topic.
Mu Zhong continued, "The Heart of Life hasn't been returned to the car. It's been guarded by your undead spirits for the past few days, and they remain in their original location. They are hostile and aggressive towards everything. I can't get the Heart of Life for further research. Now that you've woken up, return it."
"Are you sure everything is okay?" Wei Huan was a little worried.
Mu Zhong said, "At least Iron Heart is sure there are no problems, but I will handle it carefully."
Wei Huan nodded.
Mu Zhong then mentioned the third thing: "The assessment on the Level 6 Highway went smoothly. The Dark Beast Kings didn't cause any trouble. I don't know if they didn't expect us to enter the Level 6 world in such a large scale at this time, or if the Mo Ji you left behind in the Dark Beast World played a role. Anyway, the latest news is that they have reached the 80th line. If they don't get the achievement, they will reach the Level 6 world at noon tomorrow."
Wei Huan chuckled: "I seem to have missed a lot of things during this sleep. Anything else?"
Mu Zhong glared at him, his expression as if he had just realized something, and said, "A lot. Remember I said we had a set of blueprints for a tier 7 vehicle, and seven tier 6 vehicles."
"Not six level 6 vehicles?"
"It seems that he is quite clear-headed and not easy to deceive."
"If you cheat too little, won't you lose money if you cheat too much?"
Mu Zhong laughed dumbly. "Are you kidding me? Okay, okay, here's the thing. Although we opened almost all the treasure chests in the treasury, some of the rescued challengers accidentally touched them in the chaos. After they regained consciousness, they handed the materials to us. This just happened to complete the blueprints for the seventh tier 6 vehicle."
"Who is it?" For some reason, Wei Huan's first reaction was the woman who caused the commotion.
"Your focus is a bit strange." Mu Zhong said this, and then continued, "There's a woman named Alfonso from Kangaroo Country. She's the only survivor of that chariot. She's a lightning mage, and she's probably gifted in that area. Although she's only Sequence Four, she possesses a greater lightning reserve and lethality than others."
In addition, when talking about this matter, Mu Zhong's eyes were full of disbelief: "And she happened to encounter a diamond treasure chest."
Wei Huan immediately thought of a possibility: "Professional training ground?"
"Yes, she opened the professional training ground for the wise, the 'Mage Tower'."
"Tested in that situation?"
"Luckily, the test at the Wise Professional Training Ground has nothing to do with combat, but rather a knowledge test, and she happens to be a very good student."
After finishing speaking, Mu Zhong went on to explain in detail the training methods of the [Mage Tower].
"It's more like understanding the true theoretical knowledge of magic. Not only being able to use it, but also understanding its core operating capabilities. Starting from a magic apprentice, to a first-level magician, a second-level magician, and finally a ninth-level magician. Each level represents a stage of knowledge, and only after passing the assessment can you move on to the next level. With each level passed, not only can you master more magic, but your magic damage and spiritual power will also be doubled.
Alfonso is a woman who is very good at studying. This magician tower seems to be prepared for her. She is now a third-level magician and is almost at the same sequence as her.
At the same time, her current spiritual power is the second highest we have seen so far, except for you, exceeding ten thousand points."
"Alfonso, it's her..." Wei Huan murmured. When he heard the name, he finally understood why he felt that the woman looked familiar.
It turned out that he was the "No. 1 Thunder Mage" famous on Blue Star in the previous life. The destructive power of thunder was astonishing, and he played a huge role on the battlefield. The scenes were also shocking, so he was known as the "Thunder God of War".
As expected, a genius is a genius no matter where he is, especially when it comes to adapting to different environments. Not only did she survive, but after having a professional training ground, she also digested and absorbed this belated power at the fastest speed.
Theoretically, the magician should be the strongest long-range magician, but due to the lack of a professional training ground, he has been reduced to a second-tier combat force, assisting the hunter sequence.
Now I have finally changed my destiny!
Wei Huan's expression was too obvious, so Mu Zhong asked, "Have you heard of this before?"
Wei Huan said: "Yes, the lightning talent is very strong."
"Want to invite her in the car?"
"Let her see for herself."
Wei Huan didn't force it. In her previous life, even without Wei Huan, she had grown up. Now that she was in a better environment, she would only become stronger. In addition, Wei Huan knew her talent and if he cultivated her, she would also have amazing strength. So it didn't matter whether she was in his car or not.
The world of challenges has arrived now. Humanity has experienced so many twists and turns and is rapidly discarding the barriers between countries and merging into the "Blue Star Human Race". Therefore, there is no need to differentiate too much between you and me.
Of course, the professional training ground is important, but Wei Huan doesn't want to control everything in his own hands, otherwise he would not have revealed the information about the [Natural Forest] to Osam.
Everyone knows that you can't put all your eggs in one basket. What if something happens to him one day? The people on the chariot will die with him, and so many professional training grounds will disappear with them. This will also be a huge blow to humanity.
Mu nodded and continued, "General Qiao Xi has woken up once in the past two days. He seems unable to accept the result and his condition has worsened. Xia Yu said that he has a heart disease and his will to live is not strong. It would be best to let him return to Blue Star. His family and friends may be able to help him."
"Heh." This time, Wei Huan sneered without any sympathy. "A general who overestimated his own capabilities killed his own crew and caused the deaths of so many others. He should reflect on this."
Mu nodded. "Nearly five thousand people died this time, which is no small number, especially after training to this level. It's a blow to humanity as a whole. General Qiao Xi lost his crew and his chariot is in disrepair. It will be difficult for him to make a comeback this time. He may say goodbye to challenging the world. However, General Qiao Xi is very close to our General Osam and is also dealing with Hodgson. It was he who revealed Shi Hengjun's true identity and investigated the Xu family father and son, all for our benefit. With the information we have and the influence we have, it's actually easy to get him back. It all depends on you..."
"Let him reflect for a while." Wei Huan was also a little angry, but the reason why he did not refuse directly had nothing to do with whether he supported him or not. The issue of stance was just a trick of politicians. The reason why he did not say death was because General Qiao Xi helped him solve the hidden dangers of this world by accident, so that he would not have to wait until the army came to plant the World Tree before something happened. At that time, more people would probably die.
Mu Zhong naturally fully supported Wei Huan's decision. After secretly noting it down, he said again that the other people who were rescued all possessed destructive power and lightning attributes.
There are also many criminal sequences among them.
The criminal sequence follows the "devil's way" and will eventually become a "demon god of destruction". Their main focus is the "law of destruction", which is why the criminal sequence is not affected by any illusion and can become an anchor point.
However, in this battle, precisely because the criminal sequence could not be fully controlled, they were targeted and killed first. The criminal sequence that was left at the end were mostly those with outstanding talents who were able to survive the targeting of the gods. All of them would achieve great things in the future.
Unfortunately, there was no Wei Huan in the previous life, so no one saved Xu Qingqiang, and there would be no professional training ground for criminals [Endless Prison] to come into being. Therefore, the criminal sequence was like a rat in the gutter, barely surviving and not taken seriously until the destruction of the human race.
Wei Huan's attitude towards the other survivors except General Qiao Xi was very consistent.
After the background check is clear, you can be invited to get in the car, but it is not mandatory.
When they were almost done chatting, Liu Chengzhi flew up pushing his food cart.
This dining cart is a flying vehicle specially developed for him by the veteran. He loves it so much that he carries the dining cart with him wherever he goes. Now he comes up to deliver meals to Wei Huan, which not only contains delicacies carefully prepared in the kitchen, but also food baked on the spot.
In addition, Liu Chengzhi was a good talker. He served food to Wei Huan while chatting and laughing. In a blink of an eye, Wei Huan finished his meal and was in a very good mood.
Moreover, he discovered that after he finished eating, his spiritual power increased much more than before. He gained 3 points of spiritual power after eating a meal.
"Has your strength improved again?" Wei Huan asked curiously.
Liu Chengzhi said, "You discovered? Hahaha, that's right. I found that this chef also seems to have levels that can be upgraded. That day, while cooking, it was as if his Ren and Du meridians were opened. The dish he made for me was so smooth and flowing, as if it was divinely assisted. When I came to my senses, I found that all my attributes had increased by a full 100 points. I feel so powerful now!!"
Mu Zhong had never heard of this before and was surprised, "Cooking to improve attributes, or is it a sudden enlightenment? Is there a secondary profession in the challenge world?"
"What's the difference between this and a game?" Liu Chengzhi had actually suspected this a long time ago and asked it today.
Mu Zhong thought about it and said, "If this were a game, your example wouldn't have come up until today. This must be a special case. You possess unexpected talent in non-combat areas, and you love to immerse yourself in research. You spend all your training time improving your culinary skills. Perhaps it's just that hard work pays off, and your strength is improving in another way."
Liu Chengzhi thought about it and said, "Then can I consider the direction of cooking god?"
Mu Zhong smiled, "Absolutely. In the past, we were limited by the pressure of survival and could only focus on exploring the limits of our combat power. Now the situation has improved so much that we can explore and challenge the true wonders of the world." Having said this, Mu Zhong paused, looked at Wei Huan and said, "Perhaps this is just the beginning."
Wei Huan nodded, and also felt that Mu Zhong's inference made sense. Challenging the world is a competition of civilizations, but it is also a self-evolution.
"Evolution" should be multi-directional rather than a single force evolution. It should be more complex and not restricted to a single pattern.
