Chapter 5: The Dark Blood Age! Chapter 3 The Fifth Relic! Three Mysteries!
Supply base.
A crimson triangular fighter plane slowly landed on the tarmac, and an enchanting woman wearing a tight leather jacket and carrying a large sword on her back walked out of it. She had a half metal mask on her face.
"Hiss, this is a Qiankun-class intelligent fighter. Only human martial gods are qualified to purchase it. Could this woman be a human martial god?"
In the supply base, many warriors looked at the enchanting woman in awe.
"Councilor Hongxue, you suddenly came to the supply base. Is it because of Chu Zhou?"
Lu Wanjun's figure suddenly appeared in front of the enchanting woman, and he spoke respectfully.
The enchanting woman nodded calmly and said, "I will take him to the fifth ruins."
Lu Wanjun was extremely shocked.
He was not surprised that someone wanted to take Chu Zhou to the fifth ruins.
This is the reward Chu Zhou deserves after becoming the champion of the 'Global Human Genius Competition'.
What surprised him was that the person who came was Councillor Hongxue.
He knew very well that this Councillor Hongxue was one of the top figures in the Battle Axe Martial Arts School, and his status was much higher than that of an ordinary human martial god.
The Tomahawk Martial Arts School actually asked this congressman to take Chu Zhou to the fifth ruins. This shows how much the top management of the Tomahawk Martial Arts School values Chu Zhou.
Chu Zhou had also been standing near the tarmac. When he heard Lu Wanjun actually call the woman a councillor, he was shocked.
Congressman, this is a core member of the Human Alliance, and his status is much higher than that of an ordinary human martial god.
At this moment, Chu Zhou also felt the importance that the Tomahawk Martial Arts School attached to him, and he felt warm in his heart.
"Member Hongxue, I'm Chu Zhou!"
Chu Zhou took the initiative to walk up to the enchanting woman and greeted her.
The enchanting woman glanced at Chu Zhou sharply, nodded slightly to him, and said, "Get on the fighter plane!"
After saying that, she flashed and returned to the fighter plane in an instant.
Chu Zhou also quickly flew into the fighter plane.
Almost as soon as Chu Zhou got on the fighter plane, the crimson triangular fighter plane turned into an afterimage and instantly rose to an altitude of ten thousand meters. The next moment, it turned into a blurred afterimage and disappeared directly.
"Chu Zhou is incredible. There is actually a human martial god coming to pick him up!"
"Yes, that Valkyrie is not just a Valkyrie, she is also a councillor!"
In the supply base, many warriors looked enviously at the direction where the triangular fighter disappeared.
Inside the triangle fighter.
"Chu Zhou, you know my name just now, but I'll still introduce myself. My name is Hong Xue, and I'm one of 'Dragon's' assistants."
Hongxue said to Chu Zhou with a smile.
She is now a little different from the cold image she showed in front of everyone just now, and has become more approachable.
"Senator Hongxue, to be honest, I thought the person who came to greet me was just an ordinary envoy, but I didn't expect it to be a big shot like you."
Chu Zhou said.
"...'Long' attaches great importance to you. He personally asked me to come and greet you." Hong Xue said calmly.
Chu Zhou was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that it was Long who asked Hong Xue to come over.
Hong Xue continued, "Let me introduce you to the fifth relic."
"The fifth ruins is located in the Amazon rainforest. It is one of the earliest ruins discovered by humans."
"This relic is basically the safest of the eight ruins that we humans currently control. Basically, there are very few accidents after entering."
"If it is the first ruins, the second ruins, the third ruins, etc., then it will be dangerous. Even a human martial god may perish if he enters."
"Not only is the fifth ruins relatively safer, but the rewards are also very rich. As long as you can pass one level of assessment, even if you fail all the subsequent assessments, you can at least get a piece of equipment comparable to SSS level, and there are other benefits..."
"However, it is also because entering the Fifth Ruins is safer and the rewards are richer. Therefore, many kings and martial gods around the world want to enter the Fifth Ruins to look for opportunities."
"According to common sense, as a boundary person like you, you are not qualified to enter the fifth ruins."
"This time we'll make an exception."
After listening to Hong Xue's words, Chu Zhou also understood something about the fifth relic.
Soon, the triangular fighter flew across half the globe , appeared over the Amazon rainforest, and slowly descended.
Bang!
Hong Xue brought Chu Zhou out of the triangular fighter and landed on a piece of ordinary-looking grass.
Chu Zhou looked around and vaguely saw that there were many monsters living in the surrounding forests.
But these monsters didn't dare to approach here, as if this was a forbidden place.
“Ka-ka-ka…”
A sound of mechanical vibration suddenly came from deep in the earth, and soon the grass cracked in the middle, revealing a metal passage. An old man with white hair and wearing a loose white robe walked out of the metal passage.
"Councilor Hongxue, please!"
The white-haired old man greeted Hong Xue with a smile, then extended his right hand and led Chu Zhou and the other person into the metal passage.
“Ka-ka-ka…”
The metal passage closed automatically, and the cracked grass recovered again.
Chu Zhou followed Hong Xue and entered a spacious hall.
This hall is filled with computers and various testing equipment. More than a dozen staff members are busy typing on the keyboards, apparently doing data analysis.
"Councilor Hongxue!"
As soon as Chu Zhou and others entered the hall, eight figures with obscure and vast aura stood up and came over to greet Hong Xue.
Hongxue nodded lightly to the eight people.
These eight people are also the ones who entered the ruins this time to seize opportunities.
Obviously, these eight people are either kings or martial gods.
But these people were very respectful to Hong Xue.
Chu Zhou took the opportunity to view the ruins and found that it was full of technology. The walls were made of alloy and were covered with many meaningless patterns.
"Nine, the nine passages of the ruins are about to open."
"Wait, each of you nine people should enter a passage. Do not enter the same passage with two people. You will be immediately expelled from the ruins and will never be able to enter again."
The white-haired old man said to Chu Zhou and the other nine people.
Just as he finished speaking, nine strange portals with rippling water suddenly appeared on the alloy wall.
"The passage to the ruins is open, please go in!"
Seeing the nine strange portals appear, the white-haired old man hurriedly said.
Chu Zhou and others nodded slightly, each chose a door, and walked over.
Chu Zhou slowly stretched one hand into the water waves, and the next moment an astonishing suction force acted on his body, pulling him into the portal.
"The assessment of Ruins No. 5 has begun again. I wonder how many people will pass the assessment this time."
"One third is good. In the previous two times, only two people passed the assessment and received the reward of the ruins."
"Yes! Ruins No. 5, although there is no danger... but it is not so easy to get the reward."
Many staff members were talking about it.
After Chu Zhou was sucked into the portal, he appeared in a crystal passage.
Suddenly, a beam of light enveloped Chu Zhou's body, and at the same time he also received a spiritual fluctuation.
The meaning conveyed by the mental fluctuations was obviously about this relic assessment. Its general meaning was: there will be three stone tablets appearing in front of Chu Zhou. Each stone tablet contains a mystery. As long as Chu Zhou can comprehend the mystery of one of the fields within seven days, then even if he only masters 0.1%, he will be considered to have passed the assessment.
Of course, the more you master, the more rewards you will get after passing the assessment.
"Hiss, it turns out to be the comprehension and mastery of the mysteries of the domain?"
Chu Zhou took a breath and was shocked.
The secret of the domain, this is a power that only the God of War can master.
Chu Zhou suddenly felt that this relic assessment was full of deep "malice" towards him.
He is just a boundary master. How can it be easy for him to comprehend and master a mystery in a short period of time?
At this moment, Chu Zhou suddenly understood why the Human Alliance basically did not open Ruins No. 5 to warriors below the level of King.
This is because even if it is opened to warriors below the King, it is basically useless. If a boundary master enters here and wants to comprehend the mysteries of a field within seven days, the possibility of success is basically zero.
In this case, the quota will be wasted.
It is better to leave the opportunity to the king and the god of war.
However, Chu Zhou is obviously not an ordinary boundary master. He has the "talent" of attribute panel. So as long as he comprehends a little bit of the mystery of the domain, he can upgrade to 0.1% through the attribute panel.
“I can’t possibly fail to reach even 0.0001%!”
He thought with a little trepidation.
Soon, three stone tablets, each one person tall, appeared in front of him.
The first stone tablet was carved with a red flame.
The second stone tablet was carved with a fist!
The third stone tablet is carved with a drop of rain!
Each of these three stone tablets exudes an aura that is almost suffocating.
Chu Zhou looked towards the first stone tablet, and in an instant, he seemed to see a red flame as big as a mountain. Terrifying temperature emanated from the red flame, and the boundless earth melted into magma.
When Chu Zhou saw the flames, he immediately felt like he was about to burn.
Whether it was his body, his blood, or his spiritual consciousness, they all became boiling hot.
At the same time, there was a hint of a mysterious artistic conception, which was constantly transmitted to the depths of his soul through the red flame as big as a mountain.
He was able to fully experience the high temperature, burning, destruction and other artistic conception contained in that flame.
"It turns out that when comprehending the mysteries of the domain in this stone tablet, the stone tablet is also constantly conveying a little bit of artistic conception to the comprehender. In this way, comprehending the mysteries of the domain is not that difficult..."
Chu Zhou felt the profound artistic conception transmitted by the flames at all times, and he breathed a sigh of relief. In this way, it would be much easier for him to grasp a little of the mystery.
One hour!
Two hours!
Three hours!
…
Chu Zhou stared intently at the flame that seemed to be able to burn everything, concentrating on comprehending the hint of artistic conception that came from it.
Six hours later, two flames suddenly appeared in the depths of his eyes.
"It's done. I have gained some understanding."
Chu Zhou immediately looked at the attribute panel.
"Fire of Annihilation (Secret): 0.0001% (Can be increased)"
When he saw this, Chu Zhou smiled.
As he expected, he might not be able to master 0.1% of the secret in a short period of time.
But 0.0001% is still okay.
Of course, for other people, 0.0001% is almost the same as no understanding at all. They still have to put a lot of effort into comprehending and mastering the secrets.
But for Chu Zhou, it was enough.
Chu Zhou did not rush to upgrade the Burning Fire (secret) through the attribute panel immediately, but shifted his attention to the second stone tablet with a fist carved on it.
Suddenly, a terrifying fist occupied all Chu Zhou's sight.
That fist was extremely terrifying, and circles of real shock waves continued to spread out.
Wherever the fist passed, mountains, forests, and rivers were all shattered in an instant.
A hint of the artistic conception of shock kept coming to Chu Zhou's mind and continued to accumulate in his heart.
Three hours later, a gleam of brilliance flashed in Chu Zhou's eyes, and then he looked at the attribute panel.
"Shock Fist (Secret): 0.05% (can be improved)"
Looking at the information on the attribute panel, Chu Zhou smiled: "It seems that as a super-system evolver, it is much easier for me to comprehend the power related to the body than to comprehend other things."
Still no rush to upgrade Shock Fist (ultimate skill).
He continued to look at the third stone tablet and at the drop of rain.
In an instant, Chu Zhou found himself in the midst of heavy rain. Dense raindrops descended from the dark sky and fell to the ground.
Drops of rain hit his face, giving him a cool feeling.
He looked up at the sky in a daze, watching the rain emerge from the dark clouds, watching the rain drops fall, and then watching the rain drops fall to the ground.
A trace of inexplicable artistic conception was transmitted to his heart through the rain.
The artistic conception contained in this rain is much more complex than fire and fists.
This rain is born in the sky and dies on the earth. The period in between is its life, which is also like a person's life.
This rain, falling heavily, nourishes the earth and nurtures all things.
This rain is like tears all over the sky, as if someone is crying.
…
Various artistic conceptions continued to surge into Chu Zhou's mind.
"But, rain is rain. It is rain first, and then there are other things..."
Five hours later, a gleam of brilliance flashed in Chu Zhou's eyes, and all his insights quickly gathered together and became his achievement.
"Heavy Rain (Secret): 0.003% (can be improved)"
Seeing this, Chu Zhou smiled.
He has comprehended all three mysteries.
It is now possible to improve it directly using the properties panel.
"To be on the safe side, I want to upgrade the Fire of Annihilation (Secret) to see how many attribute points it will cost. At least make sure that I can master one of the secrets to a certain degree."
Chu Zhou muttered this to himself, and his heart moved.
"Upgrade the Fire of Annihilation (Secret) to 0.1%!"
In an instant, a boiling force flowed through Chu Zhou's body.
Chu Zhou felt as if he had turned into a ball of terrifying fire that could burn the world to ashes.
Countless mysteries about fire flooded into his mind.
After a moment, everything calmed down.
"Fire of Annihilation (Secret): 0.1% (Can be increased)"
The Fire of Annihilation (Secret) was successfully upgraded to 0.1.
At the same time, he found that 1 million attribute points had also been consumed.
Seeing this, Chu Zhou breathed a sigh of relief.
He still has 37.4 million attribute points, which should be enough to increase all three mysteries to 1%.
"Increase the power of Burning Fire (Secret), Shocking Fist (Secret), and Heavy Rain (Secret) to 1%."
He continued to give instructions to the attribute panel.
The next moment, a boiling hot current appeared in his body again.
At the same time, a shocking force and a force like rolling rain appeared in his body.
The three mysterious forces were constantly tempering and transforming his body and even his mental will, making him stronger.
After a long time, everything stopped.
He looked at the attribute panel again.
"Fire of Annihilation (Secret): 1% (cannot be increased)"
"Shock Fist (Secret): 1% (cannot be upgraded)"
"Heavy Rain (Secret): 1% (cannot be upgraded)"
All three mysteries have been increased to 1%.
The consumption of attribute points is quite exaggerated. He originally had 38.4 million attribute points, but now only 8.4 million are left.
Just when Chu Zhou raised the three mysteries to 1%, an extremely strong colorful light flashed in the entire crystal channel.
"This examinee not only comprehended all the mysteries of the three stone tablets within one day, but also mastered 1% of them. He is only 17 years old, the first time such a person has appeared since the establishment of this examination base. He meets the requirements of inheriting the highest achievements of this civilization."
An electronic sound was heard in the passage.
The next moment, an ancient black book, a star map that sparkled with countless stars, and a knife that seemed to be made up of countless feathers appeared in front of Chu Zhou.
