Shan Hai Jing: Evolution from Mantis

The sea is full of trees, and the water is flowing.

Lingxu.

On the coast, Su Chen opened his eyes and came here again.

Looking at the familiar sea in front of him, a huge tentacle rushed out of the sea and slammed down.

"It's still there."

Su Chen smiled, the wind blade in his hand condensed, and he directly slashed out a pale slash. With a puff, the huge tentacle was immediately cut off, and a large amount of liquid splashed.

But the next moment, more tentacles rushed out of the sea.

Su Chen's mouth twitched, and he decisively ran towards the direction of the forest.

The owner of those tentacles, the so-called giant octopus, is not surprisingly also a giant beast here.

But it is obvious that compared with the giant beasts on land, he has no idea about these giant beasts in the sea.

To put it bluntly, it is difficult to solve. After all, he is in the sea and he is not a marine life. Compared with land, fighting in the sea is a bit too troublesome.

And this time he came here, he did not come for the giant beast.

The wings appeared behind him, and with a sudden wave, Su Chen rushed into the sky in an instant.

The mountain in the distance that was straight and rushed into the sky instantly came into view.

"Sure enough, it is still there."

Su Chen's eyes flashed with brilliance, closed his eyes, and urged his talent.

The next moment, a touch of joy jumped in his heart.

Su Chen opened his eyes, and the excitement in his eyes was even greater.

"Although the divine body of the Lord of Gold disappeared along with everything there, as expected, the treasure on the mountain is still there."

Very good.

There is one more goal for coming to Lingxu this time.

Although it is a pity that the divine item was not obtained, who let that thing be taken away by a god? And strictly speaking, the divine item was born because of the Lord of Gold, and it was taken away by the Lord of Gold. There is nothing to do.

Shaking his head, Su Chen no longer wasted time and headed straight for the mountain.

It was like a pale meteor streaking across the sky.

In a blink of an eye, Su Chen arrived at the foot of the mountain.

When he first came here, Su Chen also saw some soldiers in protective clothing surveying nearby.

Because of the public beta of the game, they all became players, but as new players, their strength was average, and they were the weakest in Lingxu, and some ordinary beasts could kill them.

So these people all carried a lot of weapons, and some of them were old players with good strength under the official command.

Seeing Su Chen's arrival, one of them immediately waved and said. "Boss."

Su Chen looked over and greeted him with a smile. He recognized this person. He was a member of Tang Wei's team, named Chen Ling. The name was very feminine, but he was actually a man.

Su Chen landed from the sky and walked in front of Chen Ling.

Chen Ling immediately introduced him to the people around him. "Come, come, let me introduce you. This is our Jiangcheng forest ranger boss. He is very powerful."

"Oh? A forest ranger?" A white-haired old man raised his eyes and asked with interest. "I have read your information, Su Xiaoyou, but this is my first time to meet a forest ranger. Can you let me see your incarnation?"

"Hmm?"

Su Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at the old man in surprise.

Chen Ling introduced quickly. "Boss, this is our Jiangcheng expert, Jiang Xuemin, who came here to explore and is responsible for collecting some information to facilitate future research on some things."

Hearing this, Su Chen smiled and said. "No problem."

After the words fell.

Su Chen's body surged with momentum.

The soldiers in front of him suddenly changed color, and felt a big stone pressing on their chests, making it difficult to breathe.

Then, a flash of light flashed behind Su Chen, and a hideous figure immediately emerged.

The mighty and domineering figure of the mantis, with a cold breath in his pupils, stared at everyone, as if emitting a chilling murderous intent, making everyone swallow their saliva subconsciously, as if looking directly at an invincible creature, and a trace of fear rose.

Especially the glittering mantis knife, which made them just look at it, as if they saw a slash coming to cut themselves.

"Gurgle..."

"What a terrifying incarnation..."

"Didn't you say that the insect incarnation is very weak? Why is this one... so powerful?"

Some soldiers couldn't help but speak.

Chen Ling laughed immediately. "Hey, hey, hey, the insect incarnation is very weak, but it depends on the person. Boss Su is very strong."

"Really powerful."

Although Jiang Lao also felt a lot of fear, he quickly suppressed it, and instead fought with his eyes shining.

Looking at Su Chen's avatar, he said in disbelief. "Although I have known about this game for a long time, and I also know the avatar ability in the game that allows people to gain power."

"But until now, it is still difficult to explain the principle of the existence of this avatar."

Hearing this, Su Chen's eyes flashed with surprise and asked. "Mr. Jiang, does the official also study the avatar?"

"Of course."

Mr. Jiang nodded and said. "Compared with the various existences in other games, the avatar can be said to be the source of the real power of the players. For this kind of power, the official will naturally conduct research. It can even be said that not only our official, but many major countries in the world have launched targeted research as soon as they learned about the game."

Su Chen asked. "Is there any progress?"

Mr. Jiang shook his head.

"Unfortunately, no."

Looking at the mantis avatar, Mr. Jiang sighed. "This power is too mysterious. It subverts all our previous theories. Maybe one day we can understand the principle, but not now."

"But there is still a little speculation about the incarnation. Do you want to hear it?"

Jiang Xuemin smiled and looked at Su Chen.

Su Chen smiled and nodded. "Of course."

He himself was full of curiosity about the incarnation.

Jiang Xuemin smiled. "We don't know the principle of the incarnation, but we have some speculations about its existence."

"According to our speculation, the existence of the incarnation may be attached to our player soul."

"Soul?" Su Chen was shocked.

Jiang Lao said. "Yes, it is the soul. In fact, we have not obtained any results from the relevant inspections on the physical and even spiritual aspects of the players. The only thing we don't know is the soul."

"So we speculate that the player's incarnation is actually a manifestation of the soul. This manifestation allows the player to obtain the blood and power given by the game when entering the game, so that the blood can evolve."

"This evolution will be fed back to the person, thus forming an all-round improvement."

Hearing this, Su Chen fell into deep thought.

Soul...

After hearing what Jiang Xuemin said, it seems a bit possible.

Jiang Lao smiled. "You don't have to take it too seriously. It's just our guess. To study the incarnation, besides the current technology not meeting the standards, the incarnations of the players have evolved too few times. I estimate that it will take at least six or seven evolutions to really understand the principle of the existence of the incarnation."

"In this regard, an old guy like me can't do it. At that time, I will rely on young people like you who are capable and have potential."

Su Chen came back to his senses, smiled, and said. "Do your best."

Jiang Lao nodded. "Yes, do your best. I've delayed you for some time. You can get busy next. I think you must have something to do when you come here."

Su Chen didn't explain, just nodded. After saying goodbye to Jiang Lao, the incarnation dissipated, the wings behind him extended, and he instantly soared up and headed towards the mountain.

Watching Su Chen's back disappear, Jiang Xuemin also collected his mind, and then took everyone and his students to continue to study and investigate everything in Lingxu.

After a moment.

Su Chen continued to rise and entered the area of ​​thunderclouds.

Wild thunder raged.

The power of thunder and lightning filled the mountain and surrounded the peak.

"Cry!"

A shriek, followed by a thunderbird bathed in thunder suddenly rushed out of a thundercloud and swooped down towards Su Chen.

Seeing this, Su Chen smiled lightly. "If the King of Thunderbirds was here, I would be a little bit afraid, but unfortunately the King of Thunderbirds is dead."

As soon as he finished speaking, the wind blade in his hand condensed, and he swung the knife and chopped the body of the Thunderbird in mid-air, and the blood fell like a rainstorm.

Seeing that the corpse was about to fall, Su Chen instantly touched it and swallowed it forcefully.

Unfortunately, after swallowing it, Su Chen did not find the existence of the blood of wild thunder, so he could only shake his head and continue to fly up. After a while, he came to the platform at the top.

The sea of ​​thunder surged.

It was like an ocean standing above his head.

The power of thunder filled the world.

Black clouds covered the area, so that the area could only rely on the light brought by thunder to illuminate the surroundings.

As soon as he landed, the lightning flashed in the sea of ​​thunder above his head, and the figures of thunder birds emerged.

Su Chen looked up and saw thunders coming wildly.

Su Chen stood still, and the strong wind on his body raged out, turning into a pale dragon and roaring away, crushing all the thunder, and then Su Chen swung the wind blade and burst out a sky-high slash.

With a puff, one thunder bird after another was killed, and blood spilled on the ground.

With just one knife, more than ten thunder birds that appeared all died in his hands.

The powerful strength did not frighten the other thunderbirds. Instead, more thunderbirds appeared, staring at Su Chen with sharp and cold eyes, revealing a murderous intent.

The next moment, with a scream, the thunderbirds began to dive.

Su Chen frowned slightly, as if he had noticed something. After thinking for a while, his face suddenly became clear.

"Because of the breath of the Lord of Gold?"

Unlike last time, this time, he felt the murderous intent, and although he had it last time, it was not as strong as it is now.

This reminded him of what the True King had said to him before.

The Lord of Wild Thunder and the Lord of Gold are mortal enemies, and so are the believers who follow him.

Although these thunderbirds are not believers of the Lord of Wild Thunder, they exist because of the Lord of Wild Thunder and are disguised believers. Therefore, they may have such a strong murderous intent after feeling the strong breath of the Lord of Gold on themselves.

Su Chen did not care about this. On the contrary, excitement emerged in his eyes.

"Come on, the more the better!"

With a loud laugh, Su Chen held the wind blade in his right hand and took the initiative to attack

He came here to evolve, and he didn't want to be disturbed when he was evolving!

So from the beginning, he was ready to kill all the thunder birds here!

Otherwise, with the importance these thunder birds attached to the territory, plus the murderous intent towards him now, once he started to evolve, these thunder birds would definitely come to disturb him.

That was not what he wanted to see.

The wind blade swung, and the slash burst out. With a puff, one thunder bird after another died under the slash.

Immediately afterwards, a thunder bird swooped in front of him, and the sharp claws swung suddenly, but Su Chen saw the pale wind condensed in front of him, easily blocking the attack.

The knife flashed.

The thunder bird was instantly beheaded, and its body fell to the ground.

The thunder blade in Su Chen's left hand condensed, and murderous intent appeared in his eyes. He waved his wings behind him and directly killed into the sea of ​​thunder!
