Volume 3: The King of Waste Chapter 363: Maeve's Departure
Following the sound, Xu Shen saw a snow-white, scaly dragon lurking in the valley.
But the four claws of this creature are all slender, snow-white long arms of a woman. It has a delicate face, snow-white scales on its forehead and jaws, strange eyes, and a chest covered with scales like a shell, with snow-white bulges.
An A-level fish!
Xu Shen raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect to encounter Daxu before entering the Xuhai.
"You go and solve it." Xu Shen said to Xing Jun.
"Do you really think I'm your subordinate?" Xingjun was a little speechless. Although he said that, he still stepped forward reluctantly and said to the big Xu: "Open your snake eyes and don't make trouble. I'm too lazy to kill you."
“But I’m very hungry.”
The big monster gazed at the star king with tender eyes and licked his lips. A long forked tongue extended from his delicate face, scratching the scales on his face, leaving wet mucus on the scales.
Then, she suddenly moved out and rushed towards the Star Lord quickly.
Xingjun snorted coldly, but was not careless. He activated his ability and suddenly shot a shot through.
With a bang, the bullet pierced Daxu's chest directly, and blood spurted out.
The sprayed blood splashed on Xingjun. Xingjun smelled the sweet scent and suddenly felt inexplicably excited, as well as a bloodthirsty and brutal murderous intent.
The dragon girl quickly wrapped her body around the Star Lord, strangling him, and her arms turned into sharp claws, trying to tear him apart.
The Star Lord activated his ability, betting that he would not get hurt. He consumed one third of his strength and slid out from the entanglement of the dragon girl like a loach. He turned over and shot again, piercing a hole in the dragon girl's head.
The dragon girl screamed, stared at the Star Lord ferociously, let out a roar, quickly turned around and rushed to the other side of the valley, hiding and disappearing in the blink of an eye.
"You just let her run away like this?" Xu Shen said coldly.
"Shut up!!"
Xingjun suddenly roared, his face was hideous and distorted, and he looked extremely violent and angry.
Xu Shen raised his eyebrows, stared at Xing Jun, and said coldly: "You have been tricked, control your emotions."
Xing Jun's heart skipped a beat when he saw Xu Shen's eyes. He realized something was wrong right after he finished yelling. Was he seeking death?
"Wait, something seems to be wrong with my emotions. I'm so angry. Damn it, that damn Xu, I'm going to kill her and skin her alive!!" Xing Jun tried his best to control his emotions, but still felt uncontrollable anger and irritability.
Xu Shen couldn't help but shake his head. He drew out his sword, and the power of the universe gathered in his eyes. In the world, twisted cause and effect lines like worms emerged.
Among them are the lines on the body of the fox.
Precise and locked.
Xu Shen suddenly swung his sword and slashed.
The line broke, and at the same time, screams were heard from the ruins on the other side of the valley.
Xu Shen asked Hai Jue to lend him a blood blade, and suddenly swung it out.
A flash of blood flew straight into the ruins forest. Hai Jue said to Xu Shen through the perception of blood: "It hit."
"Go collect the bodies." Xu Shen said to Xing Jun.
"Damn it, is she dead? I didn't kill her myself, damn it!" Xingjun had a ferocious face and suppressed his anger. He didn't dare to vent his anger on Xu Shen. He even kicked stones as he walked and chased in the direction of the dragon girl, cursing all the way.
Soon, he turned back, holding the delicate head of the dragon girl in his hand.
There was still a charming smile on that head, and his eyes were gently closed, as if he was sleeping peacefully.
Xu Shen didn't hesitate and handed it to Hai Jue and Ling Lu.
Xingjun's emotions also calmed down at this moment, and he said to Xu Shen: "I was just affected by the power of this thing, please don't mind it."
"fine."
Xu Shen shook his head.
The blood spread from the soles of his feet, covering and absorbing the dragon girl's head.
In the head, there is a Xu soldier with a weight of 15, which is quasi-legendary level.
Xu Shen asked Hai Jue to accept it temporarily and give it to her.
Later, seeing that Xingjun had returned to normal, he let him lead the way and enter the Xuhai.
Killing this dragon girl was just an unexpected episode.
Xingjun adjusted his state and first used divination to locate the position, confirming that the next matching Xu soldier in the Guibu military book was still at the location where the Xuhai crack was passing through, and then he signaled to Xu Shen.
Then he stepped in first.
It was Xu Shen’s first time to enter the Sea of Ruins, but with Pamira’s memory in mind, he was not too nervous.
Following closely behind the Star Lord, Xu Shen also stepped into the crack of the Ruins Sea.
Before his eyes was a gray, foggy world. Xu Shen felt his body being pushed by a force, sliding forward, as if he was standing on a skateboard, with flowing fog all around him.
Suddenly, there were bursts of whispering voices.
These whispers were not some mysterious ancient language. Instead, they felt like being in a market with all kinds of noisy sounds filling one's ears.
Some people talk about paintings.
Someone was making love and moaning.
Someone was yelling and arguing about something.
All the sounds were changing and disappearing quickly, like a noisy train rushing past, with conversations in every carriage.
After a moment, the fog in front of my eyes suddenly disappeared, and a scarlet light was cast down.
Xu Shen saw a desolate, ancient and barbaric world.
The mountains and the sea are connected, and the earth and the sky seem to be connected as well. The scarlet sky and patches of mottled cloud-like objects look like rotten rust.
The soil under my feet was damp and soft, like rotten meat, and it gave off a fishy and unpleasant smell.
Although he had glimpsed the Xu Sea in Pamira's memory, when he was there in person, Xu Shen immediately felt the danger and terror here. Such a strong sweet smell was exactly the habitat that Xu liked.
Xu Shen looked back and saw a crack behind him, which must be the crack he had passed through before.
If I step back now, I will be back to the outside world soon, but the short return and return will end up being three months .
Xu Shen checked the information. Three months is 90 days, which means 45 days in total.
Why is it 45 days? Xu Shen was able to find out that the number was related to the Luoshu Nine Grid, which involved some ancient materials and culture. Maybe it was a coincidence, or maybe it was a long time ago that the Xuhai existed and was discovered by the ancients.
Only the king can enter here. Xu Shen feels that this is a world deeper than the fourth world.
This may be extremely far from reality.
Even though there is a crack channel, just traveling through it and distorting time requires a cycle of 45 days.
Xu Shen recalled the whispers he had heard before. Some of the language and content in them seemed to have happened in the distant past. It was very likely that this passage spanned time and space, and Xuhai was an independent world with another timeline.
"There are no ruins around. We are lucky."
The voice of Xingjun came from the front. He had just come in and was scouting the surroundings, worried about being ambushed by Xu. Fortunately, there was no Xu hovering near the rift.
Xu Shen thought of Pamira's memory. In her memory, the two states were once sent into the sea of ruins for experiments.
When the second state entered the sea of ruins, it sank directly into the ground beneath its feet, as if it was dissolved. Then Pamela returned to reality, but was unable to find the second state. The other party seemed to have evaporated and disappeared completely.
This is why only kings can enter the Xuhai.
Once you enter, the longer you stay, the harder it will be to leave the sea.
The material from the sea of ruins will cover your body, and you will not be able to escape on your own. You must find a shell from the sea of ruins and use the power of the shell to cover up the material before you can return to reality.
The quasi-legendary soldier in the dragon woman's body was the shell she found here, and she was able to escape with the help of this shell.
However, once you escape from here, the shell will be useless and cannot be used to escape again.
Either turn around and leave, or find a new shell to leave.
This strange situation also makes the Ruins Sea a taboo place for kings, who are unwilling to enter rashly. After all, one may not be lucky enough to find the shell every time, and it is easy to be trapped inside.
"Um?"
Xu Shen suddenly discovered that an important figure was missing from his side.
Maeve didn't come.
Earlier, outside the crack, Maeve was following him like a shadow, but she didn't come in at this moment.
He looked around but still didn't see Maeve. He couldn't help but wonder, could it be that she hadn't had time to enter yet?
"The thing is in that direction, go forward." The Star God had already divined the location of the next matching Xu Bing in the Gui Department's military book and gave guidance.
Xu Shen shook his head and said, "Wait a little longer."
"Um?"
Xing Jun looked at Xu Shen in confusion: "What are you waiting for?"
Xu Shen didn't answer, but looked around and waited for Maeve.
Without Maeve by his side, he felt like something was missing and was inexplicably uncomfortable.
Time passed by little by little. After a long time, Xu Shen still didn't wait for Maeve. He couldn't help but frown, and had the urge to turn around and step into the crack to take a look outside.
But it took three months to go back and forth, and another three months to go back again.
He finally held back.
It looks like Maeve didn't enter here.
"I can't blow myself up easily here."
The minotaur suddenly said to Xu Shen.
"Why?" Xu Shen asked.
The Minotaur said in a low voice: "You know the reason. My soul core will be exposed."
Xu Shen suddenly thought of the reason why it was immortal. The strange bean sealed its soul and allowed it to regenerate infinitely. Could it be that the bean would be exposed here?
But outside, the bean is hidden in a deeper world.
Xu Shen looked at the world in front of him and suddenly realized.
Is there only one world here, with no levels?
Is this the reason why Maeve didn't come in? If she did, she would be exposed directly in front of him...
Xu Shen understood in his heart, and then he thought of Maeve's pretty smile, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Is she not ready to actually meet me?
But in fact, I am no longer afraid of you...
Shaking his head secretly, Xu Shen didn't wait any longer and said to Xing Jun: "Let's go."
Xing Jun felt puzzled. He thought Xu Shen and others had some plans here, but he turned out to be in a daze, as if he was trying to adapt.
He secretly complained in his heart and led the way.
The pitch-black mountains were connected to the dark red sea. Along the way there were bare trees that looked like strange limbs, and swamp-like lakes. The two of them moved forward all the way. It was impossible to fly in this sea, and unless one had special abilities, one could only walk.
Not long after walking, Xingjun suddenly stopped and looked at a hill in the distance: "Did that mountain move just now?"
Xu Shen stared at it intently, his eyes gathering Xu power, and threads gathered one by one, but there were only a few, floating and entwined on the hill. He nodded slightly: "It's a Xu."
"Take a detour? Or solve the problem?" asked Xing Jun.
"You go and solve it." Xu Shen made a choice.
Xingjun cursed in his heart and walked forward reluctantly. He pretended not to notice the ruins disguised as a hill, walked slowly closer, and then suddenly jumped up and pulled out a gun.
A gun pierced into the hill, creating sparks.
The hill roared and began to shake. It turned out to be a Daxu that looked like a giant pangolin, but with a handsome face, like a weird young man. There was a diamond-shaped purple crystal on his forehead, shining with cold light.
It roared and pounced towards the Star Lord, stirring up sand and gravel on the ground. The terrain changed, and the earth seemed to stretch out five fingers, trying to grab the Star Lord.
The Star Lord moved as fast as a dragon, changing positions quickly and getting close to the beast, stabbing its eyes with his spear.
With a bang, the gun barrel pierced through it, and black blood spurted out. Daxu let out a painful and angry roar, lifted up more boulders to cover Xingjun, and sprayed stones like raindrops.
Xingjun dodged left and right, but was still hit and fell to the ground.
He had an ugly look on his face. The big ruins in this sea of ruins were more ferocious than those outside. Having been living in this environment for many years, they were all powerful predators.
He got up from the ground and rushed towards Daxu again, crushing stones along the way, and stabbed the gun into the weak part of Daxu's face again.
But this time Daxu was prepared. He raised his hand to block it. A thick stone armor grew on his face, covering his head. It then rolled up on the ground and rolled towards the Star Lord like a stone ball.
The stone ball has a diameter of tens of meters. When it rolls, it makes a terrifying sound, and the ground nearby is shaking.
Xu Shen's face darkened slightly. With such a big commotion, he was worried that it would attract more enemies. He stopped watching the show and quickly moved forward.
The ruins, which had wrapped up the weak parts of the body and rolled into a tumbling boulder, was hard to deal with, but Xu Shen directly slashed the causal line on his body with a sword. At the same time the line broke, a torn wound appeared inside the boulder, and an angry roar came from the stone.
"Sea Lord!"
Xu Shen called out.
Hai Jue understood, and a large amount of blood suddenly gushed out, covering Xu Shen's body. In a blink of an eye, flesh and blood grew, and a giant over a hundred meters tall appeared.
Covered in flesh and blood, Xu Shen's armor was wrapped inside, revealing the form of a naked giant.
He suddenly threw a punch, and the quadruple fist force hit, covering it with a small but powerful and enhanced force. With a bang, it actually stopped the rolling boulder.
Then Xu Shen grabbed the crack and tore it apart with force, forcibly prying the curled up body apart.
The moment they were opened, streams of blood shot out from Xu Shen's shoulders, piercing into the soft part of Daxu and piercing his body.
The blood was invasive and seeped into its body. Hai Jue made a ruthless attack. In a blink of an eye, the blood spurted out of the body of Da Xu and it was torn apart while screaming.
On the other side, the Star Lord, who was frantically dodging the rolling boulders, was stunned when he saw Xu Shen's majestic figure. Although he had seen Xu Shen's giant posture in the battle of Pamyra before, he had already fled far away at that time. Now he was watching from close range. The shock was indescribable, as if he was facing a god directly!
