Chapter 120: The truth about the benefits of time travellers?
Walking out of the competition island, his body was suspended above the sea.

Looking back at the island that had once again been enveloped by the energy barrier, Cao Lie's heart could not calm down for a long time, and the past seemed like a long dream.

He thought he would die.

The end of his life is to stand in the Soul Skill Pavilion and become a statue for those who come after him to learn and grow.

But he didn't expect that the angry god would let him go and give him freedom.

It can be heard from the words of the Furious God that he knows the biggest secret of mankind, and also knows that the Black Tide Natural Disaster will one day sweep the entire world.

But what he didn't understand was why the Raging God said that his power came from the same source as himself.

Could it be that the Raging God is also a time traveler and has the benefits of a time traveler?
The communication with the Furious God also solved a doubt in his heart, why did the Furious God let him leave after fighting against the Lord of Famine.

This is inconsistent with the character of an angry god.

Now he understands.

Cao Lie and the chosen warriors immediately bowed their heads respectfully:
"My lord!"

Therefore, they are not familiar with each other.

The Lord of Famine's answer made Cao Lie even more confused.

At this moment, a figure tore through the space and descended beside him like a god.

Coupled with the fact that the wrathful god let him leave, Cao Lie was filled with doubts.

Why is it still related to the high priest?

"Chosen by God, my name is Cao Lie. I was a member of the 34th Regiment of the Famine Legion. The legion number is CA2113."

The reason is the same as himself. The Furious God believes that the power of the Lord of Famine also comes from the same source, and may be able to provide assistance in the future battle with the Black Tide.

When he was captured by the slaves of the Wrathful God and entered the Wrathful Arena, although he was already a commander-level warrior, he was just an insignificant warrior in the huge human empire. How could he attract the attention of the Lord of War and the Lord of Famine at the same time? Come to the rescue.

It was his faith that came, the Lord of Famine.

With the sea breeze blowing on his face, Cao Lie took a deep breath of fresh air, and his body turned into a stream of light and flew towards the location of the human empire's resources in his memory.

When he appeared above the island, he saw countless figures floating towards him.

"Okay." Cao Lie nodded at this moment.

When asked, Cao Lie immediately explained his experience.

When talking about Arena of Rage, the expression of the chosen warrior changed obviously.

Realizing that his sudden appearance might be regarded as the arrival of the evil god, Cao Lie immediately restrained his outward aura to prove that his arrival was not malicious.

"Cao Lie, I never thought you could come back."

"I know you have many questions in your heart. Next, go to the main city of Imperial Cultivator. The high priest will answer them for you personally... We have been waiting for you for a long time."

Turning around, he saw the approaching figure with short hair, thick and powerful arms, and clearly visible muscle lines on his naked upper body. Every contraction and relaxation of the muscles seemed to cause the air to vibrate, and even the beating of the heart was as shocking as thunder. .

"Rescue me?"

……

But judging from the behavior of the Lord of Famine, he seems to know himself well.

In order to avoid disputes, Cao Lie immediately reported his identity information.

Cao Lie found a human resource island in the vast sea.

From this, it can be judged that the opponent is a divinely chosen warrior.

"I will convey this news to the high priest first. Your situation is very complicated, and I don't know what is going on."

The premise is that humans in this era have the ability to set foot in the legendary sea.

At this time, a phantom hovered not far in front of him.

half a month later.

The surging breath of life swept over him like a tide, but Cao Lie didn't feel any discomfort, and even felt very friendly.

Seeing Cao Lie, the Lord of Famine grinned and stepped forward to slap Cao Lie heavily on the shoulder. The heavy force made Cao Lie's internal organs tremble.

……

Judging from the rank of the legion, he was only a commander-level warrior before disappearing, and his status was far below that of his opponent.

Cao Lie was stunned.

His main belief is the Emperor Xiu God, and his battle belief is the Lord of Famine. But before today, he had never met the Lord of Famine face to face. He only met him from a distance on the battlefield. At that time, the power of the Lord of Famine was deeply imprinted on his mind. in his mind.

Hearing these words, the Famine God's Chosen Warrior frowned slightly and looked a little surprised:
"Judging from the fluctuations in your life energy, you are very strong. Why have I never heard of you? What's the matter with your sudden arrival?"

"Cao Lie... I know who you are. The Lord of War arrived many years ago and went to the Arena of Rage with the Lord of Famine to rescue you, but it seems that he failed."

He felt as if he had fallen into a whirlpool of fog, unable to tell what secrets lay behind it all.

The Famine Lord's behavior confused Cao Lie.

Judging from the energy fluctuations dissipated from the weapon in his hand, it was a divine weapon created using the cutting-edge human technology of "Divine Source Refining".

The arriving figure is wearing the God of War powered armor of the Legion of Famine. The medal on his right arm is inlaid with a gold star mark, three blue star marks, and a white star mark. He is a human veteran who has served for 36 years.

The time came 10 days later.

Through the teleportation array connected between the resource islands, Cao Lie's figure appeared in the main city of the human empire, "Emperor Xiu City".

Because there are criss-crossing maglev train routes over the main city, no one is allowed to fly freely in the city. Cao Lie chose to take a taxi to the Emperor Xiu Temple.

Here, he met a man who stood at the pinnacle of human power.

Imperial High Priest: Zuo Yi.

During the conversation, the truth shrouded in fog unfolded before his eyes.

Only then did he learn that he was destined to grow up to be the commander of the 11th Army when he was born.

But something unexpected happened while he was growing up.

He was captured by the slaves of the wrathful god and taken into the wrathful arena, completely cut off from the outside world.

During this period, the commanders of all the major armies tried to rescue him many times, but they were still unable to break through the island defense barrier set up by the true god of the wrathful god.

Realizing the disparity in strength, the rescue was put on hold.

But the high priest knew that he had never died, because the Emperor Xiu Shen was paying attention to his growth, and the mysterious connection between him and the Emperor Xiu Shen had never been severed.

And his birth was created by the supreme god of the human empire, "Emperor Xiu", who divided his self-consciousness.

During the conversation with the high priest, Cao Lie also learned an incredible truth.

The origin of the Furious God is also related to the Imperial God. It was supposed to be the commander of the Eighth Legion of the Human Empire.

He is the same original god as the Lord of Divine Punishment, the Lord of Death, the Lord of War, the Lord of Divine Surrender, the Lord of Famine, the Lord of Immortality, and the Lord of Destruction, the seven human gods of war, and he should also be a subordinate of the Imperial God. god.

But in the budding stage of the new era when the black tide faded, for unknown reasons, the three gods of rage, trickery, and darkness, who should have become subordinate gods, gave birth to self-awareness tens of thousands of years ago, or even earlier, and left the underground ruins. , completely out of control, established a huge force in the outer sea, and became the overlord of one party.

This is also the reason why the Raging God said that he has an aura that feels familiar to him. Because their powers belong to the same source.

Only then did Cao Lie know that there were originally ten original war gods in the human empire.

The God of Wrath, the God of Trickery, and the God of Darkness are all the original gods of the human empire.

The current commander of the Eighth Legion, the Lord of Slaughter, the ninth commander of the Ninth Legion, the Master of Divine Refining, and the commander of the tenth legion, the Master of Sickness and Curse, are all new gods created by the Emperor Cultivator through the splitting of consciousness.

His return will also fill the position that has been prepared for him.

Become the commander of the 11th Legion of the Human Empire, lead the human race to open a new front, and continue to contribute to the rise of the Human Empire.

During the conversation with the high priest, Cao Lie also recounted the information he obtained in the Wrath Arena.

Regarding the "legendary sea area", that is, the existence of the central sea area.

The high priest who heard the news seemed very calm:

"I have long known about the existence of the legendary sea. In the future, humans will surely set foot in the legendary sea and compete with thousands of powerful tribes for the resources produced by the legendary sea... But after all, it will not be my destiny as a human being. Our future lies in this land beneath our feet. Land, we will hold on to this land when the black tide comes.”

Hearing this, Cao Lie was confused:
"High Priest, when the Black Tide breaks through the high wall, we can have more buffer space by moving the human race to the distant legendary sea area. We may also be able to get help from superpowers such as the Raging God to work together to resist the Black Tide. Why should we stick to it? The front line of the coming black tide?”

Faced with his inquiry, the high priest told him the reason why humans did not move to the outer sea and chose to build the main city in this barren land.

Buried behind it is the truth about human beings who are outsiders but have not been rejected by the power of the world.

Under the explanation of the high priest, Cao Lie understood the truth of everything.

That night, he followed the high priest to the snowy north and knelt on one knee in front of the statue of the God of Fear.

While letting go of his faith in famine, he also shouldered a new burden.

Two years later.

The high priest stood on the altar and gave a speech, announcing a sensational news to hundreds of billions of people in the human empire.

This news started from the main god of the Imperial Cultivator and quickly swept through various islands in the territory of the human empire.

The 11th Legion of the Human Empire was established, with its commander: the Lord of Soul Lockers.

……

Emperor Xiu 1182.

Beyond the high wall of the North.

The black tide surged, and countless monsters condensed from the black mist, sweeping in violently.

The silent body of fear was activated at this moment.

The eyes that suddenly opened were burning with bloody flames, and when he raised his hands, the blood turned into a wave to meet the black tide, and a fierce confrontation began.

Since the development of the human empire, the output of the power of fear is still growing.

However, Ji Xiu found that the output growth rate could no longer keep up with the intensity of the Kuroshio, so he started a new growth model.

That is to absorb part of the power obtained by the commanders of the major armies from the believers, so as to make up for the growth rate of their own strength and the increase in the intensity of the black tide.

This is a choice made out of necessity.

Although doing so will cause certain limitations on the strength growth of the legion commanders.

But if we don't do this, when the body of fear falls, mankind will usher in the black tide of natural disasters.

The current human empire is very strong.

Any team led by a divinely chosen warrior among the major legions can easily destroy the Yu Jing Kingdom when the Imperial Cultivator was founded.

But no matter how strong it is, it can't compete with the Kuroshio Natural Disaster.

The gap between the two is huge. Even if the Dark Tide Demon King is defeated, there will be the First Disaster, the Second Disaster, and even more Black Tide Demon Lords behind him.

The development of the human empire will continue, and we must first ensure the stability of the high wall.

This is also the reason why he chose to extract the power of the legion commander to strengthen the body of fear.

As of today, the Human Empire has given birth to 14 legion commanders.

They are:
The First Legion: Divine Punishment Legion-Lei Yan (Lord of Divine Punishment)
Second Legion: Death Legion-Chu Dingtian (Lord of Death)

The Third Legion: War Legion-An'an (Lord of War)
The Fourth Legion: The Divine Legion-Le Yi (Lord of the Divine Advent)
Fifth Legion: Legion of Famine-Satu (Lord of Famine)
The Sixth Legion: The Immortal Legion - Daxing (The Immortal Lord)
Seventh Legion: Legion of Destruction-Wu Mo (Lord of Destruction)
The Eighth Legion: The Killing Legion-Gu Yun (Lord of Killing)
Ninth Legion: Divine Refining Legion-Du Si (Lord of Divine Refining)
The Tenth Legion: The Disease Curse Legion-Lin Ji (Lord of the Disease Curse)
The Eleventh Legion: Soul Locking Legion-Cao Lie (Lord of Soul Locking)
The Twelfth Legion: The Scourge Legion-Pang Yan (Lord of the Scourge)
The Thirteenth Legion: Ghost Face Legion-Huo Hong (Lord of Ghost Face)
The Fourteenth Legion: Pagoda Legion-Cui Yan (Lord of Pagoda)
……

The total population of the human empire has reached 1390 billion, and its territory covers 83522000 square kilometers.

The area of ​​the main city of Imperial Cultivation has long been expanded to the front of the high wall in the north, and there is no longer unused wasteland within the territory.

The number of warriors exceeded 300 billion, and the rest of the population all had the core mission of serving the major legions in expeditionary warfare.

This is the powerful human empire that Zuo Yi expected, but this development is far from the end. It can only be regarded as a new starting point for the rise of the human empire.

Because the territory of mankind is advancing towards the legendary sea, sooner or later, mankind will face unprecedented challenges.

The resources and land in the legendary sea area are controlled by powerful clans. If you want to enter the legendary sea area, you must drive out a force from it or destroy it.

Different from the hostile forces in the outer sea, the opponents in the legendary sea area are all super beings like the Furious God.

Even the dependents of these super gods have the ability to kill gods. You can imagine how difficult it is to snatch resources and territories from them.

But this is the path humans must take.

As the Raging God said, entering the legendary sea is the initial ticket to transcending the end of the era.

No matter how many resource territories there are in the outer sea, it is not as good as having a resource land in the legendary sea area. The gold content of this kind of resource land has surpassed the level 10 resource land in the scope of human understanding, and can even be called a resource god land.

The creation of resources in a god-level resource land does not even require active mining, as resources are exploding every minute and every second.

The pure divine power refined by humans after slaying gods is produced every day in the god-level resource fields.

It is conceivable that with a land of god-level resources, humans can completely create a super army with all members equipped with divine weapons.

This is also the reason why Zuo Yi is eager to enter the legendary sea.

The Kuroshio will eventually come. The sooner we enter the legendary sea, the more comprehensive strength humans will have when facing the Kuroshio.

Today, Ji Xiu has a guess about the cause of the bug and the creation of "travelers".

He had thought about a question before.

Why after cutting off one's consciousness, each new consciousness can acquire a powerful plug-in ability after reincarnation.

What I thought at the time was that every divided consciousness was understood as a time traveler by the rules of the world, and a super power with unlimited potential would be implanted in this newborn soul during the process of restarting the conscious soul.

Just like the challengers from previous eras, they all have superpowers bestowed by the world.

But now he believes that the reason why the "travelers" obtained super powers is probably related to the black tide.

Especially after the appearance of "Lin Ji", the leader of the Disease Curse Army.

His disease spell ability reminded Ji Xiu of the first disaster of the Kuroshio Natural Disaster, "Ultimate Nagisa".

According to Zuoyi's description, the first calamity after the preface, Nagisa, is a demon king who masters plagues and curses, and his abilities are very similar to those mastered by Lin Ji.

This made him wonder, did the abilities of the "travelers" come from the Demon King in the Black Tide Natural Disaster?
(The description of the first disaster is in Chapter 86.)
