I didn't open it in another world, I'm sure

The kind of 'monsters' you are familiar with use this loophole to invade this world from time to time.

In essence, the folk rumors about monsters are not wrong. These monsters are indeed the vanguards of some powerful men who threaten the entire continent and invade this world.

And the powerhouses behind these monsters are the external threats I mentioned earlier. "

Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan were stunned, and Chu Xuan even said, "So that's the case. No wonder you let the outside group of qualified people move freely in this world."

Nangong Wentian said with a smile, "Xiao Xuanxuan is right. When qualified persons first appeared in this world more than ten years ago, we discovered that qualified persons are special. At that time, we thought that qualified persons The latter is a humanoid monster.

However, we soon confirmed that, in a certain sense, the qualified ones are a special group that regard monsters as 'nutrition'.

Although we don't understand the true meaning of the existence of the group of qualified people, but adhering to the concept that the enemy of the enemy is a friend, we finally decided to keep the group of qualified people and secretly observe whether the group of qualified people will bring this group to the world. some changes.

It's a pity that most of the qualified people only bring us a more intuitive human ugliness, which basically makes us lose our expectations for the qualified people.

Of course, until Xiaoxuanxuan and her good grandson returned to the world as qualified persons and rectified the group of qualified persons, the current situation of this group gradually changed our views.At least for now, when a crisis strikes in the future, the group of qualified people can still be used as cannon fodder. "

Although Nangong Wentian's words were harsh, but judging from the current status of qualified candidates, it is indeed not very useful.The potential of qualified persons is there, do they also have limited understanding of qualified persons?

Nangong Xiao thought for a while, but asked a question, "Old man, how much do you know about qualified people? Do you know our characteristics?"

"Well, I know a lot about this." Nangong Wentian thought for a while and said, "Well, your group can improve their own strength by hunting monsters, and it seems that there is no obstacle to this improvement, and killing enemies will drop I also know the strangeness of the item."

"Since you know, why don't you train qualified people? This kind of potential for barrier-free improvement shouldn't be bad, right?" Nangong Xiao asked again.

At this moment, Lyle interrupted, "Boy Nangong, I know what you're wondering about, it's not that we haven't tried to train qualified people, and we've even been doing it all the time.

After all, barrier-free improvement is basically equal to unlimited potential, but the problem is that you qualified people will be forcibly picked up by that special existence that cannot be perceived every year, and then carry out some things you call tasks. To come back, but the result is that in the past ten years, more than a dozen qualified people with good character and talent that we have secretly helped have all been lost in that broken mission.We are also very helpless. "

"I understand. In other words, Asuna is the qualified person you chose to train this time?"

Lyle nodded and said, "To be precise, I should have taken a fancy to it. I haven't told Wentian and them before. Asuna's talent in sword practice is very high. I plan to observe for a while to see Asuna's character. How to make a decision, judging from Asuna's life in this world for more than a year, all aspects meet our requirements, but then you appeared, Nangong boy, and launched a series of actions, we will just wait and see Make a change and see what you can bring.

Now it seems that it seems to be very good.At least now that the group of qualified people is restrained, no matter how bad their character is, they can abide by the rules. This is enough. At least the possibility of stabbing people in the back will be much reduced in the future.

After all, in our opinion, there is no need to consider the talent of the qualified person because of the ability to improve without obstacles by killing monsters. The key is character. There are very few qualified people who have good character and can maintain it all the time. This is also the willingness that we can only selectively cultivate individual qualified persons. "

At this time, Alan Dass, who was smoking a dry cigarette, added, "Actually, we also thought about being like Nangong boy, um, A Xiao, you do this, for example, integrate the group of qualified people, so that this group can grow healthy and so on.

Unfortunately, we don’t know whether the group of qualified people is amplified by some forces to amplify their own selfish ideas, or that undetectable existence deliberately selects qualified people. In short, most of the qualified people are selfish Self-interested people don't have to be cultivated at all, and even a bad one will bite us back.

And we don't have a better means of integration, and we have a great taboo about the undetectable existence behind the qualified people, so the group of qualified people has become the situation when you first came, A Xiao. "

"That's right. More importantly, qualified people also have a very special physique." At this time, Antulu also took over the conversation and said, "Ah Xiao, you don't know yet, but I can tell you for sure that qualified people Those who are very vulnerable to the influence of the abyss will completely degenerate and become the mortal enemy of all life."

Chapter 197 Root - Part Two

"abyss?"

Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan frowned.

"This is an evil group, but it should be the aborigines of our world. It's not clear what the origin is, but it is said that in the age of the ancient gods, when the elves were just born, the abyss clan existed." Nangong Wentian explained, "To put it simply, the Abyss family is very good at demagoguery, and thousands of years ago, it once caused a disaster comparable to the catastrophe, oh, the catastrophe is also the common name for the external crisis I mentioned earlier.

The Abyss Clan, also known as the Crypt Clan, is an evil clan that relies on devouring life force and soul to grow itself.It was defeated by our ancestors thousands of years ago and completely sealed in the underground abyss.A branch of the elves, the shadow elves are the guardians of the dungeon seal.

At present, the seal is still strong, but occasionally the spiritual body of the evil god of the abyss will reappear on the surface through the spiritual penetration of the seal, and use spiritual infection to affect the mind of the surface creatures, and then provoke killing, thereby gaining life and soul energy.

Generally speaking, as long as humanoid creatures with a good heart and not weak willpower are found to be polluted by the abyss clan, even if they are polluted, as long as they are discovered in time, the pollution can be easily removed.

It's just that the qualified people are different. Once they are targeted by the abyss, more than [-]% of the qualified people will be completely polluted and become lunatics who only know how to rob life.And once the qualified people have been polluted, even if we completely purify the spiritual influence of the abyss, the qualified people will not be able to completely return to normal. It seems that once a person's negative emotions are completely magnified in the qualified people, they will not be able to return to normal. Can't restore the same.

It is also for this reason that we dare not fully integrate qualified candidates. "

At this time, Lyle said with a smile, "Boy Nangong, you are very lucky. We have confirmed that your world tree has a good effect on resisting spiritual pollution. Because of this, we finally decided to let the qualified Or this group grows steadily under the protection of Dawn City, otherwise..."

Lyle didn't finish speaking, but Nangong Xiao and the others could understand.

If it weren't for the characteristics of the World Tree, perhaps Nangong Xiao and the other qualified people who are related to each other can get the support of the strong aborigines of this world and grow up smoothly, but other qualified people don't have to think about it, and they will definitely do it for safety. , was suppressed by the aborigines in many ways.

Even Nangong Xiao suspects that the group of qualified people has not been able to really develop because of the secret interference of the strong aborigines.

Nangong Xiao didn't say anything about this point, Chu Xuan must have thought of it.Even Sayuri, who gradually calmed down, could think of it.

Lyle and the others didn't point it out, after all, this kind of thing is not a very glorious thing to say.

After understanding the general situation, Nangong Xiao did not let the topic continue, but said in other words, "Talk about the so-called 'catastrophe'. I am curious about how harmful the so-called cataclysm is."

Nangong Wentian nodded, and said bluntly, "We haven't fully understood the real impact of the cataclysm, we only know that once the catastrophe comes, the space barrier of this planet will become extremely fragile.

And at that time, it will be the time when the masters of the monsters invade here with an endless army of monsters across the world.

Even we cannot accurately estimate when the masters of these monsters will be able to break through the space barrier and enter this world.

However, according to historical records, there will be a catastrophe every few hundred to thousands of years, and the cycle is a bit long, but it can also be used as a rough reference.

Now nearly 800 years have passed since the last catastrophe. Presumably, if there is no accident, the new round of catastrophe will happen within 200 years, or within decades, or even within a few years. Appear.

No one can really tell.

Of course, we will not sit still.We have always taken measures to cultivate and prohibit the internal friction of legendary powerhouses, and indulged in conventional warfare, using the battlefield to hone middle and low-level professionals, so as to continuously accumulate high-level combat power.

Judging from the remaining literature records, the power of our world has not been much weaker than the other side. After all, we can win every time. Although the cost is high, we have survived the planetary imbalance caused by the catastrophe every time. Expect.

Once the planet's imbalance period has passed, the planet's space barriers will recover, and those powerhouses in different spaces will not dare to stay for a long time without backup. Basically, they will evacuate every time before the end of the catastrophe. "

Speaking of this, it seemed that Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan were worried about the lack of awareness of the danger of the catastrophe. Antulu added, "Please don't underestimate the danger of the catastrophe. Every catastrophe affects the planet, The damage to the creatures of all our races is close to destructive.

Originally, there were three huge main continents on our planet, namely the Lyme Continent, the Tuva Continent, and the Huiyao Continent where we live now.

From the surviving documents, we know that theoretically, the Lyme Continent is more than six times larger than the Huiyao Continent we live in now, and the Tuva Continent is also twice the size of the Huiyao Continent.

However, the Lyme Continent was only found in documents 8000 years ago, and detailed records have not been handed down. If there is no accident, it should have sunk during the cataclysm of that period.

The Tuva continent sank during the cataclysm more than 3000 years ago. We are not old enough to participate in it.However, through the manuscripts and documents left by the survivors who experienced the catastrophe, it can be confirmed that the Tuva continent was during the catastrophe. .

Now the reef area in the West Sea storm belt is the remnant part of some mountain groups in the Tuva continent.

As for our Huiyao Continent, in fact, its original area was nearly a hundred times larger than the sum of the continents of Asia, Europe and Africa. Unfortunately, after the last cataclysm, one-third of it sank due to uncontrolled fighting. Now the Dragon Islands in the East China Sea are those Ruins of World War I. "

Antulu's words can be said to make Nangong Xiao and his party tremble with fear.

Especially Nangong Xiao, Chu Xuan and Sayuri, but they have a fairly accurate understanding of the land area of ​​the earth.

As for the Huiyao Continent, which is nearly a hundred times larger than the sum of the Asia, Europe and Africa continents on the earth, one-third of it sank in World War I, and the other two continents, which are much larger than the Huiyao Continent, are even worse. Completely sunk due to battle!

In other words, counting from the land area alone, an unknown number of earths have been destroyed!

Until now, Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan have completely understood why Nangong Wentian and the other veteran powerhouses are so persistent in getting out of this planet, because according to this trend, no one knows whether the next big battle will happen or not. Sink the entire Glorious Continent.

Whether it is to prepare for the way back, or to escape the catastrophe directly, getting out of this planet has become one of the ideal and urgent choices.

"I already understand the general situation." Chu Xuan pushed the flat mirror on the bridge of her nose at this time, and then said, "Under the premise that you can fly to the edge of the atmosphere, the circumstellar spacecraft is not a problem, and I can guarantee that it will fly within a month. Give the test items. But escaping this planet and the subsequent interstellar immigrants are not trivial matters. I can't make any promises now."

Antulu smiled kindly and said, "Xiaoxuan, this is enough, at least it gave us a glimmer of hope. Although we are anxious, we also know the rigor of technology. Whether it is escaping this planet or interstellar immigration, All require a lot of time and manpower and material resources to advance.

The first thing we need to do now is to confirm the situation outside the atmosphere. If everything goes well, pray that we can get a real retreat before the catastrophe happens. "

Nangong Wentian even said, "Little Xuanxuan, don't be burdened. We have the consciousness to fight to the death with the strong in different spaces. Now there is only one more possible escape route. If there is, it is of course worth applauding. If you don't make it in time , and we won't blame anyone.

In short, we are not vegetarians. If our ancestors could delay the end of the cataclysm imbalance period at a painful price, we will definitely be able to do it too! "

Lyle nodded and said, "That's right! These are our affairs, Xiaoxuan and Nangong boy, you just follow your ideas and develop. With us, no one in Dawn City dares to move."

As soon as Lyle finished speaking, Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan said at the same time, "No, let them move."

What the mother and son said in unison made everyone present slightly taken aback.

Nangong Xiao said lightly, "The alternation of the old and the new is doomed to the inevitability of the conflict. Forced suppression will only lead to a greater rebound. Not everyone can be convinced of the cataclysm. There will be no shortage of fluke and short-sighted people no matter what world it is. This point You should also know, otherwise the public's awareness of the catastrophe would not be close to zero.

It’s not that you didn’t think about uniting everyone, but that the span of the catastrophe is too long. Except for those truly high-level combat forces with a long enough life span, it is impossible to form a collective consensus at all. "

Nangong Xiao's words made Antulu and the others helplessly smile, because Nangong Xiao was right.

And Chu Xuan also spoke at this time, "For a power to develop soundly, external pressure is necessary. The harsh external environment can promote the technological development of Shuguang City. Although it is cruel, war is the key to promoting technological progress." Motivation at its best.

More importantly, most humanoid creatures in this world are far from meeting the minimum requirements for interstellar immigration in terms of cognition and psyche, as well as the social structure of various ethnic groups.

Changing cognition and social structure is doomed to the existence of conflicts, and suppressing conflicts will actually slow down the transformation process.

We don't have time to slowly transform the world.

A comfortable environment can easily breed decline, and crude and direct methods are more suitable for our current situation. "

After Nangong Wentian and the others heard this, they all smiled slightly.

They understand that, just as they deliberately ignore or even indulge the logic of conventional wars in mainland countries, apart from many reasons that are not suitable for integration, the more important point is that, as Chu Xuan said, a comfortable environment can easily breed decline. What's more, the long period of cataclysm will further amplify this decline. Once the whole society is full of decline, everything will be over...

Chapter 198 Interesting Creationism

In the living room of the villa, Antulu and the others looked at Chu Xuan and Nangong Xiao quietly.Qiuye and her father Nangong Lingyun also sipped tea and listened quietly, Xiao Baihe also came back to her senses, and went forward to change tea and add water.

"About the construction of the spaceship around the stars, I just made a preliminary estimate." Chu Xuan said at this time, "If you want to produce a test product within a month, at least 50 magic workers who are skilled in the transformation of the nature of magic elements are needed. Akiba, can the construction workers of the industrial mother machine in the industrial zone draw [-] people?"

Qiuye paused and said, "Princess Huixuan, there is no problem, but the transfer of skilled workers will greatly reduce the production capacity of the mother machine manufacturing plant."

Chu Xuan nodded, "For the time being, my side is the priority. You can draw some magicians from the elves from other lands for emergency training."

"Yes." Qiuye nodded.

"Ah Xiao." Chu Xuan looked at Nangong Xiao.

"Well, I will expand the construction of foreign camps and increase the collection of materials." Nangong Xiao said tacitly.

"Very good." Chu Xuan nodded slightly, and then said, "Let Asuna increase the guidance of qualified candidates, let other qualified personnel expand the introduction of newcomers, and at the same time release the news of hiring qualified candidates with scientific research background. Although the age of the qualified candidates selected by the system is relatively young, and young people with relevant professional knowledge are extremely rare, but given the particularity of the source of qualified candidates, it is possible that some special people may also have the opportunity to appear."

Nangong Xiao said, "Asuna is responsible for guiding, and the announcement of hiring scientific researchers is officially released by the Dawn City official. Qiuye."

"Yes."

Following Qiu Ye's response, Nangong Xiao looked at Nangong Wentian and the others, and said, "Since the future is not peaceful, please take care of me. Of course, the characteristics of Dawn City are destined to be the root of the conflict. We can solve it ourselves, but for the mythical powerhouse, for the time being, we don’t have many effective ways to deal with it, if possible, I hope you can hold it back.”

"You don't have to worry about this, Axiao." Antulu said with a smile, "The mythical powerhouses in Huiyao Continent are basically aware of the existence of the cataclysm. As long as Dawn City proves the feasibility of developing outside the planet, I can Guaranteed, those old friends of mine will fully support all actions in Dawn City."

As soon as Antulu's words fell, Nangong Wentian added, "Although myth-level powerhouses basically don't get involved in worldly affairs, legend-level powerhouses are different, especially some newly promoted legendary-level, or completely I don’t know about the existence of the Great Cataclysm, or I don’t care about it. For now, we have a clear agreement that there are only less than 40 legendary powerhouses, accounting for about two-thirds of the number of legendary people. .

We can't say for sure how many legendary powerhouses there are in this continent, or even whether there are unknown mythical powerhouses.

Little Xuanxuan and my grandson must be careful. "

Chu Xuan and Nangong Xiao nodded to express their understanding.

At this moment, Lyle suddenly said, "You seem to be having a very unpleasant fight with the Holy See, don't you?"

Nangong Xiao responded, "Yes, they are too greedy, we won't accommodate."

"It should be like this." Lyle said with a sneer, "Don't give face to those hypocritical guys. If those guys dare to do something, you will do it to your death. If the Holy See dares to intervene in person, let us come forward."

According to the information collected by Nangong Xiao and Chu Xuan, the Highness of the Holy See of the Holy Light, Turawa Nucent Ann Glenrose, is the highest leader of the Holy See, the official immediate boss of the Twelve Hierarchs, and is rumored to be the closest to the light Servant of the Goddess.All the year round in the headquarters of the Holy See of the Holy Light, in the Temple of Light on the top of Nalu Holy Mountain.

According to what Akiba said at the beginning, this priest is a veteran light-type legendary powerhouse. There are gossip that this priest has already stepped into the mythical level, but there is no way to verify the authenticity of this rumor.

Thinking of this, Nangong Xiao asked directly, "Is he at the myth level?"

Lyle thought for a while, looked at Antulu, Antulu shook his head and said, "The old boy likes to pretend to be mysterious, and he has special breathing skills and treasures. I can't see through it, but it must be the same as Wentian at most." , there is still half a step away from the mythical level, but this half step is far away."

After Nangong Xiao nodded, Chu Xuan suddenly asked, "I'm curious, do you really not have a cultivation method to advance to the mythical level?"

Asked by Chu Xuan, Antulu and the others were slightly taken aback, and finally smiled helplessly.

Nangong Wentian sighed and said, "Little Xuanxuan, there were originally advanced mythical cultivation methods, but there have been several major crises in which the inheritance of cultivation has been cut off, resulting in the disappearance of countless cultivation formulas in the long river of history. People of this generation only sorted out the cultivation methods of the legendary level with great difficulty. As for the mythical level, it is just a division of combat power speculated from some surviving documents. It is not clear whether it is accurate or not .

However, due to the unique advantages of the elves and treants, in theory, as long as they successfully reach the legendary level and accumulate magic power or fighting spirit for a long time, there is a high chance of automatically advancing to the mythical level, which is why the mythical level is confirmed. authenticity.

But other ethnic groups are not so lucky, basically they can only grope with their eyes closed. "

"So that's how it is." Nangong Xiao asked again, "Since the elves and tree-humans can advance to the mythical level by themselves, doesn't it mean that this advancement process already exists? Based on your relationship, I want to figure out this advancement process." The process shouldn't be difficult, right?"

Antulu said helplessly, "Yes, we think so too. Especially after I advanced, the exploration between us has never stopped, and we have been trying various methods to trace the process of advancing to the mythical level.

It's a pity that it's a sublimation process that even I, the client, can't explain clearly. We have explored it for decades, but there is almost no progress. "

Nangong Wentian also said, "Yes, according to the way of thinking of our dragon race, the legendary level should belong to the limit of 'fantasy', and breaking through the legendary level to enter the mythical level should be the so-called 'transcendent and holy'. Conceptual improvement, in general, is a word of 'enlightenment'. Of course, it is said that, the real situation is still uncertain."

"That is to say, there is no definite method of cultivation?" Nangong Xiao confirmed again. The reason why he is so concerned is because Qiu Ye and other legendary personnel are now in the situation of "nowhere to go". It is Nangong Xiao's greatest reliance. As long as there is a way, he hopes that Qiuye and the others can make further progress.

Antulu and the others shook their heads and said no.

"Okay." Nangong Xiao sighed regretfully, and said again, "The last question, if you can go to our world, can you also go to the earth?"

Antulu and the others were not surprised that Nangong Xiao would ask this question. In the end, it was Nangong Wentian who explained it himself.

"It was possible in the past, but not now. According to some records of the dragon race, more than 2000 years ago, the space system powerhouse of our dragon race accidentally discovered the space coordinates of your earth. At that time, as long as it was a legendary dragon The strong people of the human race can cross the space barrier and go to that world without paying a small price.

But not long after, our ancestors discovered that the space channel between the two worlds became more and more dangerous. Even later, let alone the legendary level, even the mythical level would have to experience the danger of a narrow escape if they wanted to cross the boundary. Now, it seems that the space channel between the two worlds has been artificially repaired or something, and it is difficult for mythical powerhouses to approach, let alone cross the boundary.
