"Nan Sao was eventually destroyed..."
Come back to your senses.
Roger sighed in his heart.
And about the situation in the slums.
The leader of the skirt warriors said with a sad face:
"They consumed a large amount of stones, poison needles, and mercury. The possibility of survival is very low..."
Roger nodded.
He had anticipated this result.
Although he notified the local rulers, the Spallon family, as soon as he discovered the abnormality.
The latter also took emergency measures.
But the Maid of Pain was not a whim.
These people are already in a state of depravity.
Just think of this.
He couldn't help feeling a little sad.
Since coming to Jianhai.
Roger has been thinking about a question:
Can my arrival change anything?
After the "Angry Sea Blood Whirlpool", only one in ten creatures in the sea survived.
Can I change this situation while working hard to seize opportunities?
Unfortunately.
No matter how he deduced, in the end he would still end up with a similar outcome.
The reason is actually very simple.
He is not strong enough!
In Mystra, in the City of Jewels.
The reason why Roger dared to stand out was because he knew that he was the strongest person in that area!
But in Quinan, in the sea.
At best, he is just a passer-by with some strength.
In the eyes of some people.
Maybe he is not even qualified to be a chess piece.
There is actually very little he can do.
A few days ago.
Roger sent an anonymous letter to the "Nan Sao Shi Zi" through Selina's channel, warning them that the Sea Wolf Army was about to invade on a large scale, thinking that it would at least have some warning effect.
Now it seems useless!
In this world, fists are the only thing that matters!
Roger had imagined it, too.
If he had the strength of Master Qu Feng, he could just pull the deep-sea python out of the trench and give it a good beating.
After all.
The current situation in Jianhai is caused by the fact that the god Kuinan has cut himself off from the human world and there is a lack of a truly strong man to deter the ambitious people who are ready to make moves.
The Sea Serpent Queen is indeed very strong, but compared to other ascenders, she is too young.
Only after this battle.
Only she can stabilize the situation in Jianhai and become the undisputed number one lady in Jianhai.
In fact.
The situation is similar not only in Jianhai, but also in other places in Quinan.
Jianhai was only the first region where a large-scale "God War" broke out.
Since the "Angry Sea Blood Whirlpool".
More and more "God Wars" or "Ascension Wars" will break out on the star Quinan.
Perhaps this is the sign of doom that Hediwara mentioned.
…
I thought of the god Quinan.
Roger turned his attention to the warriors in battle skirts in front of him.
Since a hundred years ago, Quinan has stopped performing miracles and protecting the world.
The number of people in the "War Skirt Warrior" profession inherited from Quinan began to plummet.
The Spallon family, the rulers of the Sea Beast Bay, is one of the very few forces that still insists on training war skirt warriors.
They believed that the current low point was just a test from Quinan.
And in the following war.
Neither the rest of the Spallon family are still warriors in these battle skirts.
They will shed their last drop of blood for the Bay of Sea Beasts.
From now on, Quinan Star may never see so many warriors in battle skirts again.
This is a very pity.
The training method of the skirt warriors is very rigorous, and requires the assistance of secret medicines and secret techniques, which is extremely costly.
But they deserve the investment.
They are true warriors, and their learnings have inherited the three powers of Quinan:
That is, "battle", "warrior" and "war".
Their individual combat effectiveness may not be particularly exaggerated.
But in a large-scale war.
The value of one battle skirt warrior is at least equivalent to that of 100 sea wolf knights!
Roger dared to break into the Sea Wolf Army alone.
But he would never dare to rashly rush into the army of warriors in skirts.
"I hope I can save a few seeds..."
As he thought about this, he chatted with the leader for a few more words.
That night.
Roger was invited to the castle of the Spallon family, and talked with the other family leader for a while as a senior believer of the Sea Serpent Queen.
What a pity.
No matter how he tried to hint at it, the other party refused to reveal anything about the training methods of the battle skirt warriors.
To this.
Roger had no choice but to give up.
…
at night.
The uninhabited island is brightly lit.
The demons are working overtime to prepare for the coming war.
The wolves who originally tried to idle away now worked diligently in the "Endless Maze" under the active leadership of Sack.
Equipment manager Cindy was also diligently cleaning the 5697th grid.
Seeing the servants working so hard for their own tomorrow.
Roger was relieved.
He turned and went back to the barracks.
Then he took out the "Encapsulation Card" that he had begged from Sensonia.
The so-called encapsulation.
In fact, it is a means for upgraded Contract Masters to compress demiplanes or similar spaces into the form of cards.
Packaging is very difficult.
Even if one is promoted to a Contract Master, he can only seal two or three cards at most in his entire life.
The encapsulated demiplane will be isolated from many laws and form a self-consistent, semi-closed loop.
Most of the time.
The function of the package card is to provide a steady supply of resources.
It is usually a blessing left to future generations by powerful contractors.
Between thoughts.
Roger placed the card with flames all over it in the palm of his hand.
A prompt immediately appeared on the data bar.
…
"Contractor: You can explore, plunder, occupy and destroy the 'Immortal Fountain'"
…
"Immortal Fountain (Record): The previous contractor only chose 'Occupy'"
…
“You actually chose the option with the lowest return?”
"Sen Sonya is such a coward as a devil lord..."
Roger smiled silently.
Decisively chose "plunder"!
The next moment.
A dark red portal was reflected in the card.
Roger walked in.
…
"Hint: You have entered the sealed demiplane, the Immortal Spring Volcano"
…
"Hint: You encountered a little devil"
…
The temperature around suddenly rose.
The air under high temperature has some distortion.
Roger took a closer look.
I found myself standing on the mouth of a volcano.
The magma is boiling in the belly of the mountain.
It seems ready to burst out at any time.
Not far away.
A little devil with flapping wings spotted him and flew over with bared fangs and claws.
As a result, he was captured by Roger.
Under the suppression of Piaoyun Palm.
The little devil immediately begged for mercy in anxious colloquial language:
"Are you here to subjugate the Rotnik clan?"
"I can lead the way..."
Roger thought about it.
Finally, it was given a mark of guilt.
The next moment.
He exerted slight force on the base of his thumb.
The Piaoyun Palm, which was half a person's height, crushed the little devil into pieces!
…
"You killed a little devil."
…
"Your evil nature has been slightly enhanced."
…
"Evil nature: Your nature will tend toward evil;
When your evil roots accumulate to a certain amount, you will be recognized by the will of Purgatory and gain relevant permissions;
If your evil roots continue to accumulate, you will have the opportunity to become a devil monarch or even the lord of the Nine Layers of Purgatory.
…
"Lord of Purgatory?"
“Not interested!”
Roger shook .
Purgatory's will is evil and lawful, which is completely inconsistent with his style.
So this attribute is useless to him.
Now.
He circled the crater.
The distribution of the "Karotnik Clan" was quickly confirmed.
Strictly speaking.
This devil clan is the object of the contractor's encapsulation.
This is also the reason why Roger started begging for alms.
He walked down the mountain road.
Reached the mountainside.
Several "volcano demons" that were dark and burning with flames discovered him.
These volcano demons are members of this devil clan.
They rushed forward.
But Roger is faster!
Floating Cloud Palm!
In an instant.
Two half-human-high translucent hands appeared above the heads of the volcano demons, and then slapped them hard!
With the blessing of "Ten Years to One Sword".
Three volcano demons were beaten into meat patties!
The follow-up will be better.
At most, the head was hit into the chest.
This is not a fatal injury to the devil with strong vitality.
But then.
Roger rushed forward waving the Red Moon.
The level of the volcano demon is Lv60.
Because they have been encapsulated, the number of elite templates is pitifully small.
Under the agile sword light of Nineteen Moons.
Roger didn't even use his Dharma image and cleaned up the mess easily and happily.
on the data bar.
…
"You killed 8 volcano demons."
…
"The acidity of your body fluids has increased slightly."
…
“Fuck!”
“What a pity…”
Roger had originally hoped that the demons here could give him some good attributes, so that he would be more motivated to plunder in the future.
But what is “body fluid acidity”?
Want to turn yourself into a lemon man?
Now.
He went on somewhat disinterested.
If you encounter a volcano demon, just kill it.
The journey was smooth.
After 2 hours.
Roger successfully killed the last volcano demon nearby.
So far.
All the members of the Kalotnik clan in the entire packaged card have been wiped out by him.
Immediately following.
A wooden treasure chest appeared in front of Roger.
It contains the rewards for this plunder.
Next to the treasure chest is the return portal.
There are also new prompts on the data bar.
…
"Contract Master: You have successfully plundered the 'Immortal Fountain'"
…
"The first looting is complete. You have obtained the 'Secret Magma of the Immortal Fountain', the 'Genealogy of Kalotnik', 29 mithril, 33 ancient bamboos, 64 emeralds..."
…
Silently moved the heavy treasure chest.
Roger left the packaging world.
After returning.
The color on the packaging card turned gray, and there was a countdown on it.
This means that after 7 days, the sealed world will be reset, the volcano demon will be reborn, and Roger can make a choice again -
Exploration means wandering around;
He had plundered once;
The occupation is to collect a small tax from the volcano demons living in the encapsulated world.
Destruction means directly destroying the entire encapsulated world.
This move can obtain a large amount of resources, but it also cuts off the possibility of long-term profiteering.
For Roger.
Plunder is the most profitable.
It is just more tiring, as you have to spend 2 hours every 7 days to brush the dungeon.
Unlike the endless maze, the encapsulated world can only be entered by the contractor himself.
This means he can't hire a substitute.
"Or you can pick a subordinate with good qualifications and train him to be a contract master..."
Thinking so.
Roger opened the treasure chest and took out two of the most precious things.
…
"Secret magma of the Immortal Fountain (10 portions): After taking it, you can gain an extra rebirth ability."
"Requirements: Only for infernal creatures."
…
"Genealogy of the Kalotnik Family (Purgatory Item)"
「Blank list: 60」
"Description: Write the real names of lower-level devils on the family tree, and they will be promoted exceptionally;
They can obtain the Kalotnik family name and some of the volcano demon's abilities."
…
"The devils' promotion is really troublesome."
"I have done my best for my brothers..."
Now.
Roger spread out the "family tree" and placed it on the table, and took out a feather pen that had the effect of a contract.
Immediately following.
He called over the horned demons and ordered them to line up and wait outside.
"Come in one by one."
Roger said as he picked up his pen.
The first person to come in was a familiar face with a confused look on his face.
"Don't be nervous, it's just a promotion."
Roger chuckled.
He casually wrote "Woodpecker" on the blank family tree.
Then look at the other person.
The latter looked at him nervously.
"Can you detect any reaction?"
Roger was patient.
He knew that the woodpecker's perception was very low and it was confused, so it might not be able to notice his changes.
The woodpecker looked hesitant.
Roger comforted calmly:
"It's okay."
"Just feel it slowly."
Suddenly.
He noticed that the woodpecker seemed to have something to say:
"If you have anything to say, speak up!"
"Yes, Master!"
The woodpecker immediately shouted loudly:
"Report to the master!"
"My name is not Woodpecker!"
Roger was stunned for a moment.
Then he crossed out that line of words on the family tree with an expressionless face.
After a moment.
The awkward atmosphere gradually disappeared.
Accompanied by drastic changes in the woodpecker's body.
on the data bar.
…
"Your servant 'Woodpecker' has completed his promotion and gained a new surname, bloodline, and abilities."
…
"You have gained a new shared ability: Lava Spray"
…
"Lava Spray (7th level spell-like ability): You can spray a large amount of 'Purgatory Lava' at once;
You can designate any body organ as the spray point;
The range of the lava jet is locked to the 'effective attack distance of projectiles';
Lava ejection consumes your energy and stamina, and the number and quantity of ejections also depend only on your energy and stamina;
…」
…
"Um?"
"Which organ should I specify?"
Roger was surprised and delighted.
He didn't expect that by improving his younger brother's strength, he would also benefit from it.
But since it is a shared capability.
Then woodpeckers must have this ability as well.
He immediately consulted a professional devil for advice.
The woodpecker answered as if it were a given:
"Of course it's here..."
After saying that.
He raised his hand and touched a certain part of his body.
…
