Part 2: The Dust of History Chapter 492: Twin Star Corridor
…
"Kill Order: Extraction failed. You failed to obtain the status or expertise from the Serpent of the End..."
…
"Extraction failed..."
…
"Extraction failed..."
…
…
"Hmm?"
When the first message of failed extraction flashed across Roger's vision.
He didn't take it seriously.
It has been successful so many times.
There will always be a few failures.
A 95% success rate is still not 100% after all.
But what followed was a screen full of grey text that surprised him!
"You failed so many times?"
"What's going on?"
Roger looked at the prompt on the data bar seriously.
9 draw opportunities.
In the end, only three times were successful.
This is abnormal!
He stood at the tail of the giant snake and thought for a while.
His sixth sense told him vaguely.
This may be because the Eternal Snake is causing trouble in secret!
"People can't even come to this universe, so why are you still interested in messing around?"
Roger felt a little relieved.
Just three is fine.
He was too lazy to bother with the Eternal Snake.
After all, the Serpent of the End is just a temporary carrier of the Serpent of Eternity.
If this guy really dares to come to this universe.
Roger will not let him go so easily like today!
Now.
He looked at the three pieces of information that were successfully extracted.
…
"Kill Order: You have acquired the expertise of the End Serpent - Mercury Mysticism"
…
"Mercury Secret Technique: You can perform a protective secret technique by taking an appropriate amount of mercury.
When the secret technique is in effect.
A layer of mercury will form on the surface of your skin, completely isolating it from the distorted material.
After the secret technique is activated.
The time it takes to take effect depends entirely on the amount of mercury you take.
…
Warning 1: Ingesting mercury may cause symptoms of mercury poisoning.
Mercury overdose can be fatal.
…
Warning 2: This secret technique is only applicable to organic organisms.
…
“What a good thing!”
Roger's eyes lit up.
I didn’t expect that the End Snake had such a unique secret skill!
The attribute of "completely blocking distorted matter" is of great significance to Roger.
With the secret art of mercury.
Many places that he didn't dare to set foot in before can now be boldly explored!
As for mercury poisoning...
joke.
Is Roger still afraid of being poisoned?
Super high poison resistance and poison tolerance mean that he has the potential to become the Poison King.
After obtaining the secret technique.
He wished he could start swallowing mercury crazily to gain resistance to the relevant poisons!
Even if it's a bit unbearable at first.
You can hold up over time.
This is the benefit of having maximum toxin resistance!
No matter what the toxin is.
Unless he died instantly.
Often, you will get used to it after being poisoned for a while.
"From another perspective, if we can overcome the toxicity of mercury, then wouldn't everyone be able to fight against distortion substances?"
Another bold idea popped up in Roger's mind.
However, it is difficult to promote the expertise you have acquired.
He doesn't have the energy to try now.
You can only add one more idea to your mind.
Save for later use.
…
"You have acquired the expertise of the End Serpent: Ring of Corruption"
…
Ring of Corruption (Theocratic feat): You can cast a ring of corruption around yourself or another target.
After successful release.
All matter within a radius of 5 to 8 kilometers will be contaminated by negative energy.
Everything will corrupt rapidly.
Life will slowly die out.
…
But from another perspective.
This place will soon become a paradise suitable for the survival of negative energy creatures.
…
Limit: Once per day
…
"You have acquired the expertise of the End Serpent: Star Catapult"
…
"Starry Sky Catapult: When you travel in the starry sky, you can use the starry sky medium as a bowstring to launch yourself out at an extremely high speed, creating a catapulting effect similar to an 'undersea slingshot'!
…
When you use Star Sling.
You will be treated as a 'throwing object' and a 'slingshot weapon' and enjoy the related attribute enhancements.
…
Note: When using this feat, please be careful to calibrate your direction to avoid hitting unknown celestial bodies or space-time rifts!
…
Limit: 180 seconds/1 time"
…
Compared with the "Mercury Mysticism".
The latter two feats may not be as valuable.
But it also has strong practicality in related fields.
"Ring of Corruption" is a little less popular.
But if Roger wants to "play" a villain one day, or needs to enclose a piece of land to raise some undead creatures, this thing can come in handy.
The "Starry Sky Catapult" is much more interesting.
Despite the long journey through the starry sky.
Roger himself prefers to use transportation tools such as "Titan/Starship" to achieve ultra-long-distance crossing.
But having an extra specialty that allows you to travel across the starry sky alone isn’t a bad thing.
in addition.
Starry sky catapult can not only be used to travel and escape.
It is very aggressive!
Because the special "Super Slingshot" Roger obtained in the second upgrade can give him 10 times the power!
He now.
It is a potential missile in the starry sky!
And it is very flexible.
The kind that can hit anywhere you point at any time!
The only pity is.
Roger who was "ejected" cannot carry weapons.
That is to say.
The damage of Star Bounce cannot be double-counted with weapons.
Otherwise, Roger could really make the most of this expertise!
…
Overall.
The stuff that the End Serpent gave was pretty good.
All three specialties are relatively unpopular.
But its practical value is not low.
Considering that the Eternal Snake's small treasury in this universe has been looted by Roger.
The latter made a small profit from this raid.
certainly.
Naturally, Luo Jie would not be satisfied with this.
In fact.
He was still upset about the fakes in the half-warehouse of the Eternal Serpent.
To make up for this.
After landing, Roger ordered his men to collect the remaining spoils.
That is the corpse of the End Serpent!
But this giant snake is indeed somewhat amazing.
The two ends of its body fell onto the two stars.
A turbulent bridge was formed.
A strange gelation phenomenon occurred at the point where the small snakes that made up the giant snake were connected head to tail.
That is, all the places where breaks might have occurred are instead blurred and stuck together.
Roger took a quick look.
If you don't want to destroy the 'bridge' itself.
Then the only loot left to be picked up are the "Fragments of the Super-Dimensional Mirror", " Scales of the Serpent of the End", and a white coin engraved with an Ouroboros pattern that looks a bit like an arcade game coin.
Roger hesitated.
Finally, we decided to limit the pickup targets to these three items.
certainly.
To protect my younger brothers.
They picked it up from Mystra.
Walking along the giant snake's corpse towards Quinan.
Roger is extremely fast on his feet.
He extended the power of his domain to protect the elves who were responsible for the dirty work.
The latter's diligent work attitude also brought about high efficiency.
Not long.
They were halfway there.
It was a slightly sunken area.
Look up from this angle.
Quinan and Mixing happened to be on the left and right.
The distance between the two is already very close.
Binary star systems do not repel each other due to gravitational forces.
On the contrary, it appears more stable under the connection of the Serpent of the End!
What’s even more interesting is.
The starry sky medium, which was originally as solid as a rock near the planet, now showed a phenomenon similar to liquefaction.
Roger could feel it.
Although most of the starry sky in the fifth star orbit is still gelatinous or even solid.
But there is no more gap between the two stars!
If he wants to.
As long as you can overcome Mystra's gravity.
He can directly use "Star Catapult" to travel between the two stars.
certainly.
Ordinary people naturally don't have the same ability as Roger.
So he naturally thought:
"If this bridge is real, it seems pretty good..."
As soon as this thought came to mind.
Next second.
He suddenly had an epiphany and looked in the direction of Kuinan.
A familiar figure walked towards me.
It was a woman wearing a simple veil.
To be honest.
Roger has seen this look a lot recently.
But the moment she appeared.
He knew she wasn't a fake!
The aura that belonged only to the sea serpent queen pressed down upon her.
"Haven't seen you for a while."
"The Queen's sense of oppression has become stronger..."
Roger sighed unconsciously.
"Yeah, it tastes even fishier..."
Smith poked half of his head out of the hidden world.
then.
Under Roger's speechless gaze, it threw itself into the Queen's arms.
…
Although people are still far away.
But Beiya's voice has penetrated the starry sky:
"I didn't expect you could kill Him so easily."
Roger smiled.
He gently stroked the Panlong Spear, which had only 25% durability left.
He answered calmly:
"This is just the temporary body of the Eternal Serpent, and He is not as strong as I imagined."
Beiya's tone was somewhat complicated:
“He is very strong.”
"Maybe you are much stronger than you think."
Roger was stunned for a moment.
This is touted.
He didn't know how to respond.
Fortunately, Beiya didn't remain silent for too long.
Her steps were deceptively small.
In fact, one step forward is equivalent to hundreds of steps taken by ordinary people.
After a while.
She came to where Roger was.
That is the center of the binary star.
“This is a good place to build an observation deck.”
Beiya whispered:
"Can you make the decision on behalf of Mystra?"
Roger seemed to understand her intention.
Then he nodded:
"That should be possible..."
His current identity is the Twin Star Guardian.
There is also the advanced blessing of Mystra.
Theoretically, it could represent one of the binary stars.
Beiya nodded after hearing this:
"Then let His remains be of some use."
Speaking of.
Her body suddenly rose up.
An irresistible and abundant force pushed out like an overwhelming force.
Wherever the 'wave' reaches.
All the rules have been slightly rewritten!
…
"Hint: The Sea Serpent Queen has opened the 'Land Kingdom of God'..."
…
"Beya opened the field: continent/stars/creatures/nature..."
…
"Bea used the 'Great Prophecy'..."
…
"Bea used her specialty 'All Dust'..."
…
…
Accompanied by lines of information scrolling across the screen.
The 'ground' beneath Roger's feet suddenly arched upwards.
About ten minutes passed.
Its shape changed from the drooping type at the beginning to a shape similar to a normal arch bridge!
Roger also discovered.
The remains of the End Serpent are petrifying at an extremely high speed.
He stepped lightly.
It was found that the load-bearing effect of this bridge is quite ideal.
And at the intersection of the Ouroboros.
Beiya blurred it again.
This place is made up of countless extremely tough chains.
In addition, the gelatinous remains themselves have extremely strong toughness.
In this way.
This bridge across the two stars has not only become a reality.
It also has extremely strong toughness, shock resistance and firmness!
…
“Is this the power of immortality?”
Roger looked at the Queen with a bit of longing.
He may not be inferior to Beiya in fighting ability.
But it is indeed a bit behind in terms of authority.
At least this level of transformation.
He can't do it.
But what opened Roger's eyes even more was yet to come——
…
After successfully "turning the snake into a bridge".
Beiya did not stop.
Two strange knives flew out of her hands.
The knife was deeply embedded in the remains of the End Serpent.
Not long.
There was a slight shaking sound under the bridge!
puff!
A gray light broke through the ground.
Roger took a closer look.
It was a piece of grayish-white snake tendon!
puff!
puff!
puff!
Similar sounds came one after another.
The golden knife cut through the two sides of the "Snake Bridge".
So.
Two sections of snake tendons on both sides of the "Snake Bridge" are erected like cables.
Under the solidification of the Queen's magic.
They become smooth and tough.
Its height is just right to fit on both sides of the Snake Bridge.
At first glance it looks like a guardrail.
But soon.
The two guardrails rose into the air.
The queen attacked again and again.
Countless seaweed emerged from her kingdom of God.
These seaweeds grow wildly along both sides of the Snake Bridge.
Soon a strong and dense seaweed wall was formed!
…
Roger held his breath and watched the wall of seaweed gradually rise higher than his head.
And just above the two walls.
The gray snake tendons suddenly became tighter.
Immediately following.
A dark green light flashed.
Large amounts of seaweed grow on the snake tendons.
Very quickly.
A giant seaweed cable car that can accommodate thirty or forty people has taken shape!
…
"I built the Binary Corridor in the name of the Guardian of Quinan..."
Beiya looked at Roger:
"Do you agree?"
In the dark.
A tremendous force surged towards Roger.
He seemed to see thousands of Mystra creatures standing behind him.
They looked at themselves silently.
Without saying a word.
The enormous pressure almost made him unable to breathe!
Fortunately, he reacted very quickly.
The killing field was activated instantly.
The relevant authority and person are also opened up.
Only in this way can one withstand the pain of being madly attacked by the willpower of all living beings!
…
"Can!"
Under high pressure.
Roger simply threw out one word.
The Queen nodded gently:
"It's done."
The words fell.
Two soft white lights burst out from the ground of Mixing and Quinan.
The white light flowed along the two snake tendons.
Finally disappeared.
But Roger could feel it.
This bridge across the two stars has been recognized by the will of the two stars!
Both ends of the bridge will also dive deep into the ground of the binary star.
Become an inseparable part of the binary star system!
From now on.
People on the binary stars can travel freely through the "binary star corridor" in front of them.
The seaweed on both wings previously provided enough oxygen.
A divine barrier symbolizing the Beiya Divine Kingdom even emerged on the periphery.
If you have a good relationship with the Sea Serpent Church.
You can also ride the "Twin Star Cable Car" made with snake tendons as the base!
At both ends of the corridor.
Beiya used magic to diffuse the snake's body.
More seaweed will grow along the snake's body to all parts of the binary stars.
Although the speed is very slow.
But in time.
This magical bridge may closely connect all regions of the binary star!
At this moment.
Roger completely understood the intentions of the two stars.
I also understood the deep meaning behind her actions——
The bridge was clearly not built for the enemy.
But it is against the backdrop of frequent disasters.
It's time for the alliance led by Beiya and Roger to speed up the unification of the two stars!
That's the only way.
Only then can Roger's plan to save the binary stars be realized!
…
“It’s a little spectacular…”
"If you think so..."
"The Eternal Snake has made quite a contribution!"
Roger was filled with emotion.
In the starry sky.
Beiya landed slowly:
"Do you understand my idea?"
Roger nodded.
"I can handle this for Quinan."
Beiya's tone was calm.
But there is a kind of resounding confidence:
"As long as the Eternal Snake cannot descend, no one above Quinan can be my opponent."
"Just give me a little more time..."
“When I reach that time, even if He comes again, it’s hard to say who will be the salary…”
Roger looked at her in surprise:
"You gained a lot in the Black Crystal World?"
You know.
Before this, the queen was pessimistic about the situation on the ancient continent.
Otherwise she wouldn't have asked Roger for help.
This is certainly due to the Eternal Snake.
But there is more.
It should be that her current strength has greatly improved!
Recalling Beiya's work when he first "built the bridge".
Roger gradually had a clue in his mind.
And about this.
Beiya did not hide it either.
She said directly and frankly:
"It can be considered an encounter..."
"I have gained two authorities and some persons..."
Roger felt jealous when he heard this.
Why do others feel so happy when they enter the black crystal world?
And apart from capturing Quentin, the Asgardian traitor, he basically gained nothing?
The Will of Black Crystal treats people differently, right?
Just when he was full of complaints.
Beiya casually dropped another bomb:
"I'm close to level 190 now."
"Within two hundred years, I can try to impact the gods."
Roger was completely convinced.
I glanced at the XP pool which was becoming increasingly shallow.
He raised his head and sighed:
"I'm still far from being a god!"
Beiya chuckled, a rare moment.
She seemed quite satisfied that she was able to suppress Roger firmly in terms of rank.
But the next moment.
Her attitude became serious again:
"I went to the Black Crystal World to look for you this time. Although I came up empty-handed, I did meet a lot of people."
"One of them might be someone you want to meet."
"I brought her here."
Roger was slightly stunned.
Just wanted to ask in detail.
But a flash of blue light appeared in the Beiya Divine Kingdom.
A girl in a white dress with a helpless look on her face walked out.
As soon as she came out.
He looked at Beiya helplessly:
"I'm really not who you think I am..."
"I have some relationship with her, but not very close..."
"Huh?"
"Father?"
The girl rushed over excitedly as if she had found her savior.
She took Roger's arm.
Eyes full of little stars:
"Please help me persuade this elder sister!"
"I am Mystra, but not that Mystra!"
Roger watched all this in bewilderment.
Suddenly.
He felt a faint murderous aura coming from Beiya!
Roger glanced at the data column instinctively.
…
"Hint: You encountered 'Mystra. White'..."
…
