Rubbish protagonist, I can do it too!

"hateful!"

Areei had no choice but to give up, packed up his tools and maps and fled quickly.

The three of them left the falling airship and saw a huge active figure in the canyon head-on. It was at least ten meters high and its body was made of pure rock.

The worst thing is that it is approaching in Rick's direction.

Rick's face was serious: "The spirit of the rock!"

Alei lowered his voice and asked, "No, doesn't the book say they are harmless?"

Rick nodded: "Under normal conditions, it is helpless, but because of the black ash, its spirit probably becomes violent, and it will continue to destroy the surrounding environment and life until all the elves residing in the body disappear."

Rick glanced at Ivan beside him, he was the oldest man among the three, he was the least valuable among the three, and he had already given birth to offspring.

It is impossible for human beings to fight that kind of monster. Only one person can attract its attention, and the rest can escape.

"Ivan..."

Just as Rick was about to give an order, the Rock Spirit suddenly turned around and stared at their hiding place, roaring loudly.

Chapter 237 The Price of Trust

hateful!

Rick cursed inwardly, suppressed his fear and quickly analyzed the situation, and ordered: "Escape separately! If you survive, join us at the stronghold in the eastern forest! Ivan, you go out first, and Arei will go out in three seconds."

Ivan and Arei nodded immediately, came out of the bunker and ran in completely different directions.

The person who shows up first is more likely to become prey.

After counting silently for five seconds, feeling the trembling of the ground getting closer, Rick checked his goggles, got up and moved, and at the same time glanced at the huge rocky body.

Why such a huge physical movement without the slightest inconvenience.

Rick rushed a hundred meters away in one breath, but the distance between him and the spirit of the rock was even closer.

boom!boom!boom!

The huge rock body rampaged, crushing all the wreckage of the airship on the ground and the rocks.

"Is the target me?"

rumbling~

A strange sound echoed in Rick's ears. He felt something. He glanced behind him from the corner of his eyes, and suddenly his pupils shrank violently.

A stone, whose shadow alone can cover his body, is less than five meters away from him.

If this is not too bad, the stone is thrown at a speed of more than ten meters per second. Even if it touches the body even slightly, it will be knocked into the air. If it is faced head-on, the human body will probably turn into meat paste.

To die.

If you die here...

maybe not a bad thing...

Rick, who was aware of the threat of death, was surprisingly calm in his heart, and even felt completely relaxed. This was the last kindness the world gave to human beings. Living in this kind of shit world, he was on tenterhooks every day and struggled hard to survive. We have seen Too many deaths. So far, 47 people have died because of his orders. Rick clearly remembers the reason and process of each order.

The lives of 47 people are too heavy!

If it was retribution, Rick would gladly accept it.

This is the final result of his last selfishness as a human being, struggling with all his wisdom and strength.

Even if he dies, there will be someone in the settlement to replace him.

"Go back."

There was a voice in Rick's ear, is the god of death coming to greet him?

No, is it really an auditory hallucination?

In a short moment, he clearly saw a ghostly figure passing by his side.

Naturally, it is Hall. This is the huge rock spirit that Hall deliberately attracted with magic. The purpose is to save Rick and his party from its hands and gain trust.

Hall clenched the hilt of his sword, facing the huge rock, the sword light flashed past.

boom!

The huge rock split into two halves and passed Rick's side, plowing two deep marks on the ground.

Rick stopped walking, his deep and empty eyes were condensed, and he stared at Hall's back. Only the orcs possessed such powerful power.

Why did the orcs save him as a human being?

Huo Ping raised his right hand, and a high-temperature fireball was formed in the palm of his hand. The magic eye had an insight into the movement of the elves in the spirit of the mountain rock, and found its core and weakness.

boom!

The fireball was launched like a cannonball, accurately hitting the core of the rock essence and penetrating it, and the rock body that was still running fell down like a marionette out of control, breaking into countless pieces.

magic! ?

Rick was stunned, and felt deeply horrified, because it was impossible for orcs to use magic.

Hall turned to look at Rick, and said casually, "Are you okay?"

Both of them were hidden under the cloak and hood, and it was difficult to see the whole picture of the other.

"Ah, thank you." Rick pulled down the brim of his hat, not wanting Hall to notice the vigilance and hostility in his eyes.

Even with the person who saved his life, he must maintain the highest level of vigilance.

However, if you express hostility openly, it will inevitably make the other party quite unhappy, at least not on the surface.

Human beings are weak, and this is the survival criterion of the weak.

Rick calmly analyzed the situation in his mind, and then judged that even if the person who rescued him was not an enemy, he must have some kind of purpose.

The basis of the judgment is the anomaly in this area. The number of demons and monsters is too small, and there are strange traces of battle, which is likely to be caused by the alien race in front of you.

If the foreign races have been wandering here, it is impossible not to notice their actions.

Then, only now.

"Are you human?" Hall asked in a friendly tone.

The question directly confirmed Rick's thoughts. Humans are at the bottom of the food chain in this world. Few alien races know the name of the human race, but Hall can call it out.

Immediately think about countermeasures, nodded and answered: "Yes."

Hall pulled down his mask a little, smiled and said, "This is really strange. I can't think of any human beings other than me who can survive in this environment."

Huh?

"Are you human too?"

Rick narrowed his eyes, guessing whether Hall's appearance was caused by the magic that changed his cognition. A fool would not believe Hall's nonsense. Just now Hall showed powerful physical strength and magic, which are impossible for humans to master. the power of.

What is the purpose?

If he came with malicious intentions, the purpose is not difficult to guess. Naturally, he was rescued to use this as a bait to find a human settlement.

Hall smiled: "You don't need to be so nervous. I am a genuine human being. It is not appropriate to say that. My soul and spirit are human beings. This body is an artificial human made by me, so it has powerful abilities. And can cast magic."

"Artificial man?" Rick didn't know what it meant, and it was not difficult to guess the meaning of the word from its literal meaning, but is it really possible for such a technology to be mastered by humans.

"That's right, it has become what it is now due to various reasons. If I have malicious intentions towards you, although you may be more difficult to deal with, your companion spirit is not strong, and you can get information about you with a little bit of tricks." All the information, but I chose you."

Rick thought for a moment, nodded and admitted: "It seems to be so. In front of the powerful upper race, human beings are just worthless in this world."

Hall shook his head solemnly: "No, human beings are the greatest species in this world."

Rick opened his eyes slightly, and said in surprise: "Why do you say that, human beings were not created by the gods, they are not blessed by the gods, and without power, it is extremely difficult to just survive."

"Weakness has nothing to do with value. The fact that human beings were not created by gods is precisely the greatest thing about human beings."

Rick was amazed and reassured by the astonishing statement he had never heard before.

Rick pulled down his mask, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "It is indeed impossible for a race other than humans to be able to say such a thing. My name is Rick. Thank you very much for your help."

The intelligent races in this world other than humans are all created by the gods, so it is impossible to say anything disrespectful to the Creator, let alone directly list humans as the greatest race.

"Hall, an alchemist from the east."

Chapter 238 The Essence

The gods of this world have many similarities with the gods of the DND system.

Gods are the embodiment of concepts, as long as there are concepts in this world, gods cannot be completely wiped out.

However, gods are the projection of concepts, and the reason why they can appear in the real world depends on the essence of the spirit.

The marrow is the godhead of the gods. When a god kills another god, it can devour the opponent's marrow to gain more powerful power.

Stripping off the marrow allows the god to return to a conceptual state.

Conversely, there is naturally a way to activate the essence. At present, the origin of the gods in this world is unknown for the time being. Hall knows that the god of suspicion who created the Ex-Machina was hundreds of millions of years ago, when the world was still in chaos Awaken naturally.

Fanlou, the God of Suspicion, couldn't find someone to communicate with, and after hundreds of millions of years of waiting after creating the Ex-Machina, he finally gave up thinking. Despair penetrated his soul and returned to the state of an inactive concept.

In addition, there is a simpler and more efficient way to activate the essence.

That is faith.

Faith can activate the essence of the gods and enhance the power of the gods. This is also one of the fundamental reasons why the gods created the dependents.

Human beings not created by gods are great because of this. Not being created by gods means that human beings have the right to freedom of belief, and can actively activate the essence of various concepts, and then create gods.

It is also fortunate that there are no elves in the human body, and the number is so rare that they have not been noticed. Otherwise, they will probably become the target of public criticism, and all the gods can't wait to get rid of them.

Tetu, the god of games, was born because of Rick's desperate and strong wish. The weakest god became the only god after touching the star cup.

······

"Fine, it doesn't look like it's been destroyed yet."

Rick fiddled with the projection mechanism inside the wreckage of the airship, and started drawing the strategic map held by the goblins again.

Hall drew the formation formation on the side, and put his hands on the formation formation to begin to understand the structure and principle of the airship made by this goblin-seeking species. The main target is the weapon reserves on the airship.

War is the root of technological progress, and weapons are usually the highest technological crystallization of the race.

If you can understand alchemy, you can use it.

Rick glanced at Lian Chengzhen and asked, "Hall, does the magic circle on the ground have any special meaning?"

"This is an formation, used to understand the principle of the flow of all things. I am analyzing the structure and operating principle of this airship."

Rick was very smart, and immediately understood the meaning of Hall's words, and asked in surprise, "Can it be made?"

"It's impossible. Even if you understand the principle of the airship, you still don't have the raw materials. This airship is the essence of goblin forging technology. Even an ordinary piece of iron contains the unique technology of the goblins."

And there is no need to create them. Hall can create magic guns based on the technology of goblins, but so what. Magic guns may be able to destroy some weak monsters or species, but they increase the risk of human exposure in disguise.

Once the elves are perceived by other races and notice the existence of humans, the only thing waiting for humans is to perish.

After more than ten minutes, Rick finished drawing the map and left the airship to join the two teammates at the temporary stronghold in the eastern forest.

In the dense forest, Rick took out the spiritual needle plate and was careful to be on guard. Monsters that he couldn't deal with might jump out of the surroundings at any time.

Even with the mighty Hall by his side, he wouldn't be careless.

"What's that?" Hall asked knowingly.

"Ah, this is a spiritual needle plate made by my sister and I. The main material is pyroxene, which is used to sense monsters and aliens that host elves in their bodies. However, because the nearby area has experienced war, the density of black and gray is very high. , not very useful."

"Show me."

Rick readily handed the spiritual needle plate to Hall.

Hall took the spiritual needle plate, and the magic eye analyzed its structure. It is really quite simple, except for the material, it is almost the same as a compass.

Hall uses the pupil as a circle, and manipulates the power of elves to use alchemy. The azure blue thunder flashes from his hands, flows through the spiritual needle plate, and slightly modifies its structure, making it look more like a modern handicraft overall.

The Spirit Needle, which was originally floating, stabilized and pointed straight in a certain direction.

Rick looked at Hall in surprise: "You transformed it?"

Hall threw the improved spiritual needle disk back to Rick: "Don't worry, it's just optimized the structure, and there are no elves in it. Now its detection range is more than ten times that of the original, and then it can ignore the black and gray Affected, when an individual possessing an elf approaches, the spiritual needle will tremble violently. The more powerful the individual elf or the closer the distance, the higher the frequency of trembling."

Rick said in disbelief: "Can this kind of thing be done?"
