Part 2: The Dust of History Chapter 437 Is there still room for improvement?
…
this.
It's somewhat embarrassing.
Roger turned his face away subconsciously.
But I felt a little confused.
Sophia showed her strength at an upgraded level.
Logically speaking, women of this level.
These physiological risks should have been eliminated long ago.
"Why didn't she erase... that?"
Instigated by curiosity.
Roger's mind instantly diverged into thousands of possibilities.
certainly.
All this was done in secret.
On the surface.
He still followed Sophia into the dark as if nothing had happened.
But Roger didn't expect this.
Not far.
Sophia actually stopped.
She glanced back with some disgust.
Then he explained in a low voice:
"This is the special feature of our Celestial Race."
"Upgrading does not change the most basic physiological structure. Whether it is defects or hidden dangers, they cannot be changed before becoming a god..."
"Don't think too much!"
Roger was startled.
Instinctively retorted:
"I don't!"
"Oh!"
The girl laughed dryly with disdain.
She glared at Roger again:
“I don’t know exactly what you’re thinking though.”
“But I smell dirt.”
"My perception has never been wrong—never!"
Roger was silent.
Good job.
This woman's perception is so sharp that she can sense Roger's reverie!
This sense of smell.
It's really surprising.
The atmosphere between the two of them, which had just improved, gradually became awkward again.
Roger simply threw the Hundred Battles Sword to her generously.
"As agreed."
He said with a smile.
Sophia hesitated.
After a few seconds.
She reluctantly threw the zero knife in her hand to Roger.
This was clearly stated in the agreement of the ancient contract.
Roger was assisting Sofia in completing the assassination mission.
He has the power to borrow the zeroing knife!
This is also part of the rental content.
but.
After throwing the zeroing knife to Roger.
Sophia did not stop her actions.
She quickly wiped the pads of her four fingers with the Hundred Battles Sword.
Sizzle.
In silence.
A dozen cone-shaped drops of blood were suspended in the air.
Sophia snorted.
Fingers flicking.
The dozen drops of "divine blood" flew straight towards Roger.
Roger, who was well prepared, solemnly used his killing power to collect the dozen drops of divine blood.
"Use it sparingly."
Sophia warned:
"My divine blood is precious!"
"You should be able to feel the power of it."
Roger nodded.
As soon as Sophia's divine blood was obtained.
He immediately went all out to sense, observe and analyze the origin and nature of this thing.
on the data bar.
…
"Sophia's divine blood (virgin blood): can be used to drive the semi-divine weapon bred by Sophia herself.
…
Note: Each drop of divine blood can drive the zeroing knife for 1 minute;
…
Note 2: This blood can be used to exorcise evil spirits (causing devastating damage to highly distorted creatures)
…
Please explore more uses by yourself.
…
"Copy Frame: I have sensed new data. Do you want to create an information scroll?"
…
Roger was slightly stunned.
This divine blood can power the Zeroing Blade.
It can actually be used to destroy monsters?
What kind of people are these gods?!
Why can other people’s blood be used to kill monsters?
Before he could complain more.
The hint from the replica made him hesitate.
In fact, Roger now has no intention of continuing to deceive Sophia.
But we must always be on guard against others.
He knew very well why Sophia spoke to him in such a gentle manner.
It was purely because he had demonstrated his great strength.
If a weak person gets the information about the gods and tries to negotiate with Sophia.
Then separation of head and body is inevitable.
This girl is not a soft-hearted person.
so.
Now that there is a chance to copy more Sophia-related information from the divine blood.
Roger naturally wouldn't refuse.
Now.
The copy person began his tireless work.
…
After completing the tool change work.
The atmosphere between the two of them eased a lot.
On the way to the destination of this trip.
Sophia chatted with Roger in a casual manner.
8 minutes later.
They were standing beneath a huge spruce tree.
Sophia asked to wait a moment.
Roger nodded in agreement.
The two of them lingered there for a while.
All this time Sophia was looking towards the west.
It seems like it is waiting for some signal.
Roger kept his composure and continued to sense the situation around him.
Just at this moment.
Sophia suddenly asked again:
"Why do you want to return the knife to zero?
"Is that the special effect of killing one against a hundred?"
Roger nodded frankly.
Sophia looked thoughtful.
Roger looked at her strangely.
He sensed a very conflicted emotion from the girl.
She seemed to be making an important decision.
Half a minute later.
Sophia seemed to have made up her mind.
She opened her mouth and was about to say something.
But at this moment.
Suddenly, a loud roar was heard in the western sky!
A giant with flames burning all over his body appeared out of nowhere !
He is tall and upright, with three heads and six arms.
Endless flames and carbon ash fell from his body.
Every movement he made caused the hundreds of thick iron chains on his body to make a rustling sound!
boom!
The giant held an axe that was almost as tall as his huge body.
The mountains west of Ice Dragon Canyon are being chiseled frantically!
Just a moment.
Roger's vision seemed to be dyed by flames.
He subconsciously glanced at the data column.
…
"Hint: You have encountered the Flame Marshal (upgraded level/high-level alien hero from the Fire Elemental Plane)"
…
"The Fire Marshal is wreaking havoc..."
…
"quick!"
“It’s our turn!”
Sophia moved at the sound.
She led Roger to the north of the spruce trees.
I don't know what means she used.
After a few short shouts.
An extremely narrow cave entrance appeared in front of the two.
Sophia led Roger into the cave.
Not long.
The noise outside was left behind by the two of them.
The earth is still shaking.
There is tension in the air.
Two top rogues walked quietly.
Through the dark and dry cracks in the stones.
Past the gleaming moss.
Not long.
Roger reached the end of the cave.
What appeared before him was a long and narrow underground canyon shrouded in darkness!
…
"Hint: You have discovered the 'Wandering Canyon'"
…
"Is the Flame Marshal one of yours?"
Standing outside the canyon.
Roger asked in a low voice.
Sophia shook her head.
"The hot-tempered and brainless Marshal of Fire Element does not belong to any camp."
"We just took advantage of his brainless and destructive nature and dumped him here at the right time."
Perhaps it’s because the ancient contract has come into effect.
The girl revealed more than before:
"The location of the Ice Dragon Canyon is very sensitive. It is where the Material World and the Totem World overlap. If the Flame Marshal destroys this place, it is equivalent to destroying the Totem World. The Star God Clan will naturally not sit idly by."
"This level of chaos is enough to give us an opportunity to assassinate the Stone Angel..."
"But Stone Angel is in charge of the central army of the Star God Clan. According to my intelligence, only by crossing this Lost Canyon can we more efficiently reach locations near him."
Roger nodded.
Before we take any action.
He hurriedly asked again:
"How are you going to assassinate the Stone Angel?"
"How do you need my cooperation?"
Sophia shook her head and said:
…
“The Stone Angel Aziz cannot be killed.
He is Alston's servant.
He is the leader among the Stone Angels.
Before the fall.
The Stone Angel Clan is actually a member of the Celestial Clan.
They were once the glory of the Celestials.
But that is in the past.
I have no idea what happened back then.
I only know it after the fall.
The stone angel gained the characteristic of immortality.
They cannot be killed by anyone.
Disease, disaster, suffering...
None of these can erase the life of the Stone Angel.
This trait allowed Az and his compatriots to live for a long time.
Even today.
That's why.
Stone angels always appear wise and experienced.
Az is one of the best.
They are very difficult to deal with.
…
But there are always exceptions.
Based on our people's observations and research over the past hundreds of years.
We find that the life of the Stone Angels is based on their rationality.
That is to say.
As long as their rationality remains.
They will be immortal.
But this is not an easy thing to do.
The boring and tedious life of eternity can easily drive people crazy.
What's more, they have already been infiltrated by distorted matter.
If it weren't for the "Ouroboros Secret Technique", one of the three main gods.
I'm afraid they would have been wiped out long ago.
so.
Killing them is also very easy.
Just destroy the secret foundations in their bodies..."
…
Having said this.
Sophia took out a light green crystalline particle and placed it in front of Roger.
Roger took a closer look.
…
"Deactivated evil species: cannot infect ordinary creatures, but can greatly amplify the concentration of distorted substances in monsters..."
…
"This is a rare item extracted by the alchemist in our clan."
Sophia explained:
"The 'evil seeds' from the Endless Abyss can infect normal creatures and turn them into monsters, but they are ineffective against the Star Gods who possess the Ouroboros secrets. However, the inactivated evil seeds can detonate the distorted matter in their bodies, achieving a similar effect from another angle..."
"This is our secret weapon against the Stone Angels."
"Remember, it's very valuable, and I only have less than 20 of them!"
The more Roger listened, the more frightened he became.
The amount of information contained in Sophia's words is getting higher and higher.
…
First of all, this "evil seed"!
Roger had an impression in his mind.
In the battle with the ancient green dragon Augustus.
Roger is very interested in the Mikado Green Dragon that can provide curse resistance.
Afterwards, he discovered a substance called "Mikado Evil Seed" in the green dragon's lair.
At that time, he guessed that was the origin of the Mikado Green Dragon.
And now.
He saw the evil seed again.
It's just in an inactivated state.
The effect also becomes to amplify the concentration of distorted matter.
This made him even more interested in the origin of the evil species.
…
Secondly.
Roger heard the word "alchemist" from Sophia's mouth!
Isn't it true that all kinds of supernatural powers are prohibited on this continent?
Is alchemy considered magic?
Could it be that the alchemists of the gods are different from others?
Or maybe…
They control a deeper power.
So alchemy can be performed on the ancient continent?
Roger remembered what Cindy said.
“Could it be…”
"Did the Red Valley Alchemist really leave behind a legacy?"
"Are they related to this tribe of gods?"
For a while.
Roger's mind was full of thoughts.
but.
He quickly put these doubts behind him.
Because Sofia was already urging him to get on the road.
As she walked, she introduced quickly:
"There are three types of monsters in this wandering canyon."
"They are not totemic creatures, nor are they related to totemic gods. They are pure monsters."
"While Marshal Flame is attracting the attention of the Celestials, let's quickly pass through this place..."
"In my plan, I only reserved 8 minutes for this step, so please don't hide your weakness on purpose. Let's split up and I'll deal with the first wave of monsters..."
But when it comes to this.
She was interrupted by Roger.
"No need."
"Leave it all to me."
Looking at the entrance to Lost Canyon.
Roger said energetically.
Sophia looked at him hesitantly:
"But time..."
"I guarantee you'll make it in time!"
Roger rubbed his hands and said:
"Just follow me!"
Finish saying this.
He didn't care whether Sophia agreed or not.
Dive straight into the canyon!
Not far away.
There was a strange, short cry.
A smile from the heart suddenly appeared on Roger's face.
"Think about it carefully..."
"It's been a long time since I encountered a monster!"
"Let me see how good you are..."
…
The beginning of the canyon.
Roger was on a roll.
Break through the gray fog.
In the dark.
He did not draw his sword.
Instead, he rushed towards the first huge monster shadow with bare hands!
boom!
A punch came down.
The strange shadow screamed and shattered into pieces.
Can be on both sides of the canyon.
More and more huge strange shadows came rushing over.
Roger didn't dodge.
He was rampaging in the canyon like a ferocious beast!
This moment.
The extremely domineering attributes of the nine-sided warrior are displayed to the fullest.
No strange shadow could delay him even for a second!
on the data bar.
A lot of information is jumping around.
…
"Hint: You smashed the shell of the Giant Ant with your fist..."
…
"You killed a giant ant"
…
"Your brain sharpness has been slightly improved."
…
"Fate Dice: Sin Mark has been refreshed"
…
"Your scalp oiliness has slightly increased"
…
"The sin mark has been removed!"
…
…
"You killed a satyr."
…
"Your rectal temperature has increased slightly."
…
"Your herbivorous ability has been slightly improved."
…
"……Cancel!"
…
…
5 minutes later.
In the middle of the canyon.
Roger glanced back expressionlessly.
Sophia jumped lightly over the hundreds of monster corpses.
Roger breathed a sigh of relief!
Although these two monsters do not give good attributes.
But the pleasure of close combat alone is enough to relieve stress.
He turned his head.
No need to attract monsters.
Monsters that look like giant mosquitoes are approaching.
"Just a reminder."
"Although they look ugly, they are indeed real dragons."
"If you need help, let me know anytime."
Sophia whispered.
Roger nodded:
"If it's a real dragon, that would be easier to handle."
Speaking of.
He took out the long-silent "Dragon Slaying Sword" from the tinder bag.
Then he rushed into the crowd of monsters without hesitation!
…
"Hint: You killed a Mayfly Dragon"
…
"Your greed has been slightly increased."
…
"What?"
Roger was shocked:
“Is there still room for improvement?”
…
