Apocalyptic life from scratch

Chapter 499 Aries Ring

"Excuse me, where is this place? Where are the others? How are they doing?"

Hearing what the old man said, Kong Zhe rushed over and asked the question he was most concerned about.

"This is the inner space of my super artifact. I put the other people in another space, and because you are the winner, I just transferred it here. As for the others...don't worry, your companion Intact, look."

As the old man said, he stretched out his hand to randomly touch the void, and suddenly a picture appeared in the empty midair.

It was a hall, surrounded by a huge table, and there were more than a dozen figures standing in it. These figures were all just a black shadow, and there was only a clear figure in the lower left corner, with a completely normal color. It's Lan.At this time, she was standing there quietly wearing a mask, but seeing her looking around, it was obvious that she was a little anxious because she didn't see her.

No matter what, Kong Zhe was relieved to see that Lan was safe and sound.When he recovered, he had time to look at the old man.

When he got closer, Kong Zhe took a closer look at the old man. The old man was still the same as before, dressed in an ancient green shirt, and his white hair and beard seemed to have grown a bit.But at this time, the old man seems to be... uh... a little more illusory than last time, and even some parts of his body have become transparent, and he can directly see the floor behind him.

"Old man, you are..."

"Hehe, it's nothing. Don't forget that this old man is just a remnant soul. The reason why I have lived in this world for so long is to hand over the twelve star rings to a suitable owner. Now, this goal has been achieved. Naturally, it will be time for me to disappear..."

"This……"

Kong Zhe touched his head, not knowing what to say.

I have to say that this old man has broken his heart for the sake of the earth, and he is worthy of admiration spiritually, but Kong Zhe does not intend to imitate him. The reason why he came to participate in the king's trial this time is not for the future of the earth, but simply He just wants to use the king ring to improve his own strength.

Having said that, he said that he won the championship, does that mean he can get the best ring?

Thinking of this, Kong Zhe couldn't help looking at the old man's hand, but he didn't find any sign of the ring.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, it seems that you are still looking forward to the ring, hehe..."

The old man seemed to have noticed Kong Zhe's small movements, and didn't make things difficult for him. He stretched out his right hand in mid-air, and soon, the prototype of a ring began to slowly form above his palm.

This is a dark blue ring, the material looks like fine jade, the deep blue is deep, the most conspicuous is the small sheep's head carving on the ring.

"This is the Aries ring with the strongest effect among the twelve star rings. The upper limit of the star power contained in it is about one-third higher than the second Taurus ring. Now, it belongs to you, you Make good use of it!"

Following the old man's solemn words, the Aries Ring slowly floated in front of Kong Zhe as if possessing spirituality.

"Oh!"

Kong Zhe looked at the simple ring in front of him with some surprise. At this time, the surface of the ring was emitting a little bit of light, floating up and down in front of Kong Zhe, as if saying that he should put it on quickly.

Kong Zhe blinked, wiped his palms, and reached out to grab the ring.But as soon as he picked it up, he thought of a question: Where should this ring be worn?It's not going to be the ring finger of the left hand like the wedding ring...

Of course, Kong Zhe was obviously overthinking this question, and soon the Aries ring had already made his choice, and it was lightly slipped out of Kong Zhe's hand, and gently put it on his right ring finger.

The moment he put on the ring, Kong Zhe instantly felt the feeling of being full of star power coming back, and a huge star power was continuously being supplied to his body from the ring on his hand.Kong Zhe could clearly feel that the star power provided by this ring was even more abundant than the sum of the star power he had in the king's trial before.

Of course, in fact the Aries ring brought him far more than this.

After putting on the ring, Kong Zhe felt his brain start to heat up, as if something was being forced to him, Kong Zhe couldn't help closing his eyes, and a picture began to flash quickly in front of his eyes. frame.

There were more than a dozen young people in green clothes and long gowns gathered together to talk and laugh happily.

There are more than a dozen people wading through mountains and rivers, traveling thousands of miles just to find a small gem.

There are pictures of shirtless people, in a volcanic furnace-like environment, sweating profusely, constantly pounding a pile of powder.

There are also more than a dozen huge floating islands floating in the air, and the people underground are stunned and worshiping.

Finally, there are scenes of seeing off friends who have passed away.

The number of people in the picture became less and less, and in the end, there was only one gray-haired old man left. The only difference was that he had more and more rings in his hand, increasing from one to twelve. , the old man took the twelve rings alone, and began the long journey of waiting for future generations...

It was not until long after these pictures disappeared that Kong Zhe took a long breath. After watching a complete period of the magnificent era, he really felt a lot of emotion.

He had always wondered before that the so-called king rings can at most improve a person's strength. Isn't twelve king rings just equivalent to adding twelve legendary masters to the earth? The overall strength of human beings compared to other The big race is still far behind, so why did the old man Chen Qiao say that the king's ring alone can greatly change human beings?

At this moment, he finally understood that the king ring is far from being as simple as he thought before. The additional functions hidden in the king ring, other application methods, and even the connection between each king ring are promising. The shocking floating city is still echoing in Kong Zhe's mind.

And how much did the human predecessors who made these rings pay for it?He could only see the tip of the iceberg just now, and Kong Zhe knew very well in his heart that to obtain such a powerful effect, the effort required must be much more than what he saw.

When he opened his eyes and looked at the old man again, Kong Zhe's expression was already full of respect.Regardless of whether such a person agrees with his approach or not, he is indeed worthy of everyone's respect.At the same time, he also had doubts in his heart about whether he could inherit the Aries ring.

The twelve rings of kings have carried the hopes of a generation for the future for thousands of years. The artifacts have spirits. In the thousands of years, even if they were just a cold stone, they now have their own spiritual consciousness.As for myself, the reason for getting the king's ring is very selfish. Can he really be recognized by the king's ring?

"Haha, when I saw you for the first time last time, I thought you had an advantage. However, there was an accident in this trial. I didn't expect you to win the championship under such circumstances. To be honest, it's amazing. More than I expected!"

The old man stroked his beard and smiled, looking at Kong Zhe with a gratified face, the more satisfied he looked.

"Well, not bad, not bad... Your words are very good... Fortunately, it's you..."

"Uh……"

Hearing this, Kong Zhe couldn't help but smiled wryly: "You win or something, in fact, it's just luck. If you want to argue about strength, there is far more than one person out of 1 people who is stronger than me!"

Kong Zhe really thought so. He was able to win this time. In fact, most of the credit should be attributed to the woman who suddenly appeared. After a strong awakening, the two teamed up to start the road to take off. Afterwards, even the No.1 did not know what happened, and the points were halved, so that he had a chance to climb to the first position.

It can be said that Kong Zhe had a feeling of being led away by good luck during the whole process. First, the King of Knights, then Lan, and then the God of Reaper blew himself up. In the end, even all the remaining people on the battlefield began to win the championship for him. And fight.Looking back on the entire trial today, Kong Zhe even wondered if he was possessed by the goddess of luck?How can a person be so lucky.

But to use his strength, Kong Zhe was very confident at first, but as the battle progressed, Kong Zhe gradually understood that he had always underestimated this awakened person on the battlefield, not to mention anything else, just the knight He will never be able to defeat Wang and Death, not to mention that there must be other masters with hidden strengths on the battlefield. It is hard to say where his real strength can be ranked.

"Haha, don't underestimate yourself. You must know that for a king, strength is not the most important thing, not even the second most important thing. And you just have the qualities that a king needs. It can be said that the right He is the most suitable owner of this Aries ring!"

The old man Chen Qiao smiled openly. If it wasn't that he couldn't stand up, he might come over and pat Kong Zhe on the shoulder: "You young people don't always believe in things like fate. Of course, I didn't believe in fate when I was young. I don't believe it, I'm like a stunned young man, pretentious, but after a thousand years, I have seen a lot of things, I began to believe in such things as fate, today you seem to have experienced all kinds of coincidences, but in fact all coincidences It is inevitable. Some things have their own definite rules, as long as they are spread out, even if you want to escape, you will not be able to escape."

"..."

Kong Zhe looked at the old man speechlessly. This man said a lot, which sounded very reasonable, but Kong Zhe always felt that he was just trying to pretend.

"To be honest, I was a little scared when I saw the end today, but in the end, fortunately, you won the championship. If that black boy really gets it, it will really give me a headache..."
