"Although I understand it, there are too many water wonders here, right?"
After collecting the tenth wonder, Ash couldn't help but say, "We haven't seen any other wonders along the way. They are all from the water faction! Even if the water magic environment in the Deep Blue Hell is very superior, there shouldn't be no wonders from other factions, right?"
Ash put all the wonders he collected in the Deep Blue Hell in the ocean at the bottom of the Soul Heaven, which was the only place that was most suitable for preserving these water wonders. Although the harvest was good, none of them specialized in water magic, so they could not use so many of them, so they could only be placed there as decoration.
Of course, if they have enough time, they can also learn the construction ideas of wonders by referring to these wonders. The construction of wonders is probably the most secret knowledge in this world, which cannot be passed down or recorded. Only magicians who have entered the realm of God can feel the beauty of construction from the wonders.
Sword Princess and the others have now begun to build wonders that suit them, but with their natural talents, there is still a lot of room for improvement. In addition to trial and error, referring to other wonders is the best shortcut. Just like writing, geniuses can certainly write well, but reading a lot of classic works can open up more ideas.
The problem is that what they lack most is time. What Ash needs are wonders such as swordsmanship, time, truth, soul, etc. that can immediately improve his combat power. As a result, he didn't encounter many of them on this trip.
Death Maniac asked back: "The second level of Deep Blue Hell is more difficult to survive than the first level of Desolate Hell. Why are there more demigods in the Deep Blue Hell?"
“Because of more resources?”
"To be precise, it is more spiritual resources and knowledge essence." Death Maniac said: "Unlike the Desolate Hell, the Deep Blue Hell is full of water magic resources, so abundant that no force can monopolize them. Even a helpless demigod can condense a water magic prison wing within a few years."
"If you can survive the catastrophe every year, then theoretically you can continue to condense the fifth level of prison wings in the Deep Blue Hell, and the speed is definitely not slow. However, the low-intensity competition environment in the Deep Blue Hell has caused the demigods here to have a lower combat level than in the Desolate Hell. In order to reduce the intensity of the catastrophe, they often take the initiative to maintain the prison wings at the third level."
Ash was confused: "But then wouldn't they be condensing the Water Bending Prison Wing? There shouldn't be that many demigods specializing in water buffs, right?"
Death Maniac shook his head: "You are looking at the problem from a mortal's perspective... So what if they are not specialized in water magic? They can change it."
"At worst, I can disperse all my prison wings. Although I will become the lower level of hell, I will also gain unlimited time and will not be troubled by disasters. Then I can spend dozens or hundreds of years to study water magic to the realm of God, and completely transform into a water magic demigod."
"Actually, it's not that exaggerated. It doesn't take decades to spread your wings. In an environment like the Deep Blue Hell, a demigod magician can usually advance his water magic to the legendary level in ten years, which is basically enough."
Ash blinked. "Changing your main technique just to adapt to the environment?"
"What else?" Death Maniac patted his head. "Do you think other demigods live a life of debauchery like you? Don't forget, in the eyes of the virtual world, demigods are just a group of shameless thieves. The disaster every year is the virtual world's attempt to cleanse the pests in hell. Although demigods gain eternal life, the price is that they live in fear every year and their lives are on the line."
Ash was shocked, "Is this true?"
"certainly--"
"Does what I'm doing now count as sexual indulgence?" Ash said with a distressed look on his face. "But everyone wants to pursue higher-level stimulation. I've been thinking of new interactive projects these days..."
When he saw Si Kuang raising his hand, he quickly slipped away.
"Next is the Silent Palace, one of the four palaces of Deep Blue, and then the Guiming Palace." Death Maniac said, "There should be a "Raging Waves" wonder in the Silent Palace. Paired with "Water Moon", it can not only greatly improve Sonia's combat power, but also help her break through the shackles of her realm. If you train her with Divine Power regularly, her swordsmanship can improve even faster."
"I see." Ash said, "This way, Sword Princess will definitely be the first in daily training... Hey? Is this why you are taking special care of Sword Princess?"
Death Maniac glanced at him coldly, "Yes, I hope she can improve quickly and kill you, a little trumpet, with her sword as soon as possible. This way, the viewer can't be resurrected, and you die miserably. It's a good deal to vent your anger twice at once."
Ash smiled awkwardly, lowered his head and pondered, "I have to think about how to compensate them..."
"Compensation?" Si Kuang raised his eyebrows.
"Yeah, although I don't expect to be absolutely fair, but this time I was able to bring back two "Dead Man Recommended" level wonders for Sword Princess, and the training resources are obviously tilted towards Sword Princess." Ash shrugged, "I can't change what wonders I get, but I have to at least make my attitude clear. Since the training resources are tilted towards Sword Princess this time, I will compensate others in other ways and try not to let them feel resentful-"
"That's totally unnecessary." Death Maniac said calmly, "Isn't it natural that you prefer Sonia?"
Ash nodded, "Yes, but that doesn't mean I will ignore other people's feelings."
"Her vanity has not disappeared, it has just been transferred to you - nothing can make her heart beat faster than your special treatment. You can obviously make Sonia happy this time, why do you have to tell her that she will not get more preference than other girls?"
Ash replied: "Not all happiness must rely on hurting others--"
The dead man was aggressive: "So you hurt her?"
Ash took a deep breath and waved his hand: "We don't need to discuss this topic."
The rest of the journey was silent and short. They quickly arrived at the Palace of Silence, which was built on an underwater volcano. The Death Maniac circled the palace and his face became extremely ugly.
"What about the wonder of "Raging Waves"?" she said, "I seized this wonder in the Palace of Silence, it is impossible that I don't have it."
"Maybe it was moved away." Ash guessed, "Or maybe the 'Turbulence' hadn't been built yet during this period of time - you guys should have entered Hell a few years later than us, and maybe it was during these years that the Palace of Silence built the 'Turbulence' wonder."
"It's a bit regrettable, but there's nothing we can do about it."
Ash's tone was calm, but it became extremely harsh to Death Maniac's ears. Especially since they had just argued, Death Maniac felt that even the punctuation marks were mocking him.
There are two more wonders in the Palace of Silence, namely "Continuous Rain" and "Silent Rain". The former is a large-scale water damage wonder, but the latter makes Ash's eyes light up - "Silent Rain" is an auxiliary wonder that grants the effect of concealed attack penetration law, which means that the more difficult the attack is to detect, the further it can pass through the enemy's defense barrier and quietly penetrate the enemy's soul under the enhancement of "Silent Rain"!
The Sword Lady and the Witch are one stunning and violent while the other is bombarding wildly. "Silent Rain" has little strengthening effect on them. Instead, Vichy's sinister and treacherous fighting style is more suitable!
Si Kuang leaned against the wall of the crystal palace next to him, glanced at Ash who had a look of joy in his eyes, and suddenly raised his finger and said, "That bright spot in the rain cloud."
Ash raised his head and saw a faint white light in the lead-gray rain clouds. "What's wrong?"
"Any method will do, just click on that bright spot."
Ash didn't doubt him, and a sword light shot out from his finger, instantly touching the bright spot of the rain cloud.
Pop.
With a thunderous sound, the rain cloud broke into hundreds of magic spirits and the drizzle stopped. Ash stared at the scene in a daze, and it took him a while to realize what had just happened - the "Silent Rain" miracle collapsed.
He slowly turned his head to look at Si Kuang, who was still shaking off the cigarette ashes calmly, his arrogance and indifference clearly revealed in his every move.
She raised her eyebrows and looked at Ash. There was no apology in her blood-red eyes, only sharp and almost piercing hatred. Ash always forgot that the one who accompanied him to explore hell was not a companion who could be trusted with each other, but a death-crazy sword demon who acted according to his likes and dislikes.
Without saying a word, he gathered the "Silent Rain" magic spirits and carefully searched for the hidden supplies in the Palace of Silence.
And never talked to the Death Maniac again.
