Chapter 139: Obtaining the Magic Potion, the Shadow of the Society of Truth! (Please Give Me a Monthly Ticket!)
After deciding to take action against the giant dragon turtle.
Xia En first waved his hand to the dragon-turned-monkey monster, indicating that it could leave. For the sake of it helping him lead the way, it was no big deal to keep it alive.
"Gahwu! Garwu!"
The monkey monster bowed to him twice and immediately ran away in a panic.
Whether it was this bipedal human being or the sleeping giant turtle not far away, they were both beings that it could not afford to offend.
Then, Xia En looked at Joey beside him with some hesitation.
This kind of dragon turtle at least possesses the strength of a second-level mystic. During battle, he may not be able to distract himself from protecting the opponent.
Joey also noticed Xia En's concerns and took the initiative to pat his chest and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Captain, I will protect myself."
"But, before that..."
The girl turned to look at the bronze dragon beside her: "Xian Ge, do you want to try that move?"
Xian Ge blinked: "You mean, the spell just deciphered from that magic book?"
Joey nodded solemnly: "That's right."
"Isn't this not good? After all, those two spells are a bit too vicious..."
Xian Ge seemed to have some concerns: "Besides, with your current amount of magic power, it shouldn't last too long."
"No matter what method it is, as long as it can have an effect on the enemy, it is a good method."
Joey's attitude was firm and he continued.
"Besides, we only need to create an opportunity for Mr. Captain."
Hearing this, Xian Ge was also convinced: "Okay, then I'll do as you say."
On the side, Xia En was quite curious.
...good guy.
When did the two of them develop such exciting combos?
So, Xia En asked curiously: "What kind of magic is that?"
At this time, Joey's face was slightly red, and he hesitated to speak directly. He just said: "In short, it is a spell to weaken the enemy."
"Mr. Captain, you will understand later."
Shane was in a weird mood.
What kind of magic makes it so mysterious?
Could it be... some kind of evil forbidden technique?
Out of trust in the crew, Xia En did not continue to ask, but took a deep breath, adjusted himself, and prepared for battle.
Unlike [Deep Sea Scuba Diving] where you can take the waves as you please, fighting on an island can really endanger your life.
Also be prepared to run away if you can't win.
Soon, Xia En took out the Blood Demon Sword.
It is worth mentioning that in recent battles, the strength and sharpness of this magic sword have become somewhat insufficient.
Think about it too.
This magic sword has absorbed a large amount of blood from low-level vampires. Of course, these materials can be used as consumables.
But against higher-level enemies, it will undoubtedly become impurities and weaknesses in the magic sword.
on the other hand.
After leaving the [Blood Moon Secret Realm], the Blood Demon Sword has not been able to drink the blood of the vampires for some time, nor has it imprisoned new souls.
Among them, the soul power of Deirdre and others will inevitably be depleted.
When their souls are completely dissipated, this magic sword will be completely scrapped.
"However, if I guess correctly, Duke Nova himself is also a vampire."
"The magic sword made with the blood of the third-level vampires will definitely become more powerful, right?"
A flash of expectation flashed in Xia En's eyes.
In the battle with Quinn and Blood Scythe, because the situation was quite dangerous, he didn't have time to drain Blood Scythe's blood, and Quinn died from the outbreak of [Deep Touch], thus missing their blood.
"But if you have the chance, you still have to build a backup weapon in case of emergency."
Thinking of this, his eyes fell on the horn on the top of the dragon turtle's head.
Doesn't the shape of that single horn look like a big sword?
"This thing is destined for me!"
Xia En grinned, then no longer hesitated and strode towards the dragon turtle sleeping in the mineral vein.
Although this giant is dormant, it does not mean that it is not wary of the outside world at all.
The moment Xia En stepped onto the black stone vein, the jet black dragon turtle opened its huge eyes.
Those eyes were made of pitch black, and their dark red vertical pupils looked cold and ruthless.
It glanced indifferently at Xia En, who was not far away, as if it was angry that this little bug dared to disturb his sleep.
But at this time, Xia En has already started to charge!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Every time his footsteps fell, the ground continued to vibrate, causing large areas of cracks and dense lines to appear on the surface.
Many fine black stone ores began to tremble violently.
The momentum of Xia En's charge also increased with his speed, and the strength in his body continued to accumulate, just like the calm sea before a tsunami.
Seeing this, the giant dragon turtle's eyelids twitched slightly and quickly became alert.
"Roar……"
Its huge body slowly stood up and let out a low roar of protest.
In its eyes, what was charging was no longer a tiny insect, but a ferocious dragon whose size was not inferior to its own!
Rumble…
In the process of sprinting forward, Xia En could feel the blood and power in his body roaring, and the beating speed of his heart suddenly accelerated, with a sound like a drum.
At this time, the dragon turtle had also stood up, and dark secret power was accumulated in the sharp horns above his head.
The whole body is pushing forward like a mountain!
A giant beast that was more than ten meters long and covered with dark edges and corners came crashing down on it.
When ordinary people face this scene, they will probably freeze up and collapse to the ground in fear.
However, in response, Xia En's lips curved into a smile.
"Well done!"
Shane's hair kept fluttering in the strong wind.
When the distance between the two was less than ten meters, his speed skyrocketed again, like a bolt of lightning.
Immediately, the bloody sword light struck down on his head!
Boom——
The big sword and the pitch black horn collided violently!
It was like two meteorites colliding!
The air waves roared and spread from the center of the collision to the surroundings, causing the black stone veins to tremble. The ground deformed as a result, and spiderweb-like cracks continued to expand outwards...
Not far away, watching this scene, Joey couldn't help but open his mouth slightly, his eyes full of shock.
Although she had previously noticed that the captain was getting stronger day by day, and had reached a level beyond her reach.
But she didn't know exactly how strong it was.
After all, when Xia En really went on a killing spree, he was in [Deep Sea Submersible] state.
There are only a handful of times when he can show his strength on ships and islands, and the occasional battles basically end with instant kills.
But now, I directly witnessed Xia En's fight with the giant dragon turtle.
Only then did Joey clearly realize what kind of terrifying power his captain had!
In fact, among the crew members of the [Black Swan], except for Feiya, who had personally experienced Xia En's majestic power, the other crew members lacked a deep understanding of Xia En's strength.
Xian Ge stared at the battle intently and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Fortunately, I gave in decisively the day I broke out of my shell, otherwise I would have become a feast of dragon meat by now."
"This is the bronze dragon's vision. It's worthy of me!"
"However, with this kind of physical fitness at the second level, can the captain be human!?"
Xian Ge thought confidently: "Even if he is not a dragon, at least he is some other non-human being."
Seeing that the battle situation in the mine was gradually becoming more and more anxious, neither one person nor one dragon forgot their responsibilities, and soon began to recite ancient and mysterious spells.
While casting the spell, Xian Ge also glanced at the dragon turtle not far away with pity.
The combination of these two spells is a bit too cruel, so much so that it cannot bear to be used on ordinary enemies.
Soon, two dark spells were generated around Joey and Xian Ge.
It turned into two streams of light and quietly fell on the body of the giant dragon turtle.
Compared with the huge size of the dragon turtle, these two spells can only be described as "insignificant".
As a result, Xia En and Long Gui, who were fighting, did not notice it for a moment.
boom--
The dragon turtle raised its hoof-like and claw-like feet, and then stepped down hard, trying to crush the tiny existence in front of it into a pulp.
However, Xia En is not an extreme player who specializes in a certain attribute, but a hexagonal warrior!
With his full burst of speed, he easily dodged the fierce stampede.
And while the dragon turtle was raising its feet, he slashed out with one sword!
Click!
The black stone-like scales on the dragon turtle's knees shattered, a deep wound appeared, and a large amount of blood spurted out.
There was also a faint curse aura starting from the wound and spreading to all directions.
Roar! ! !
This sword wound once again angered the ancient dragon species.
It let out an angry roar, opened its mouth wide, and the dark secret power from all over its body continued to flow into its mouth, gradually forming a terrifying energy mass.
Filled with the mysterious atmosphere of withering and decay.
"It's the dragon's breath!"
Xia En was shocked.
The characteristics of withering and decay are originally the power carried by the black stone.
And this dragon turtle has occupied the black stone veins for many years, feeding on the black stone, and has accumulated an unknown amount of the secret power of the black stone in its body.
Such a dragon breath offensive cannot be underestimated!
Xia En shook the [Giant Wristwheel] on his wrist and was ready to transform.
Because the side effects of [Giant Wristwheel] were so severe, he really didn't want to use his true body to transform.
But if it comes to a last resort, of course it is more important to survive first.
But just as the power of the dragon's breath continued to accumulate, the giant dragon turtle suddenly stopped!
This meal is no small matter.
This directly caused the violent secret power in its mouth to almost go berserk, and numerous withered turbulences escaped from its mouth.
"Huh? This is..."
Xia En immediately noticed something unusual about the dragon turtle.
There was a very strange expression on the ferocious turtle's face, as if he was in some pain or trying to endure something.
"Is it the kind of magic that Joey and Xiange talked about?"
"The effect is actually so good?"
"But why is its expression so strange?"
Xia En's mind flashed and he was a little confused.
But of course he would not miss such a good opportunity.
"Xiao Hei, help me!"
[Yes, Master! 】
next moment.
The double blessing from the power of the ship soul suddenly descended on Xia En.
Immediately, he stepped on the ground with his legs, jumped up, and quickly climbed up the dragon turtle's body.
In just two breaths, Xia En came to the top of the dragon turtle's head.
At this time, the dragon turtle was still trying to control the turbulence in his body, trying to continue breathing.
"Shut your mouth...shut it!"
Xia En raised his sword, burst out with all his strength, and jumped high using the upper jaw of the dragon turtle as a springboard.
Terrible power was infused into the bloody sword, causing it to tremble and buzz continuously.
Immediately afterwards, the big sword and Xia En's body were smashed down from a high place!
The air was torn apart, and the air flow roared and made a sound.
The sword light was like a big mountain, crashing onto the dragon turtle's upper jaw.
Roar——
Even a huge giant turtle could not withstand such a heavy blow, and the upper and lower jaws were forced to close under the huge force.
As a result, the secret power of the black stone previously accumulated deep in the mouth has nowhere to vent, causing them to explode!
boom!
A low roar sounded in the dragon turtle's throat.
This kind of injury that directly affects the body is far more terrifying than external wounds.
Visible to the naked eye, the aura of this giant turtle has become sluggish, and there are some signs of decay on the body surface.
This is a sign of backlash from the secret power of the Black Stone.
But suddenly, Xia En smelled an unpleasant stench.
He tried hard to identify the source of the stench and found that it came from the back of the dragon turtle's body.
Moreover, one of the dragon turtle's claws was also placed on the abdomen, and the feeling of forced endurance seemed to become more obvious.
"Wait a minute, is the spell Joey cast..."
Xia En's expression was a little strange, and he suddenly realized something.
Gululu——
Poof!
A strange sound began to come from the dragon turtle's intestines.
The previous stench spread again.
But for some reason, the Dragon Turtle could only continue to endure and could not let it go.
Shane: "..."
Why do you feel like the style of painting has suddenly become weird?
It was obviously a thrilling hunting battle just now!
However, Xia En has always been a pragmatist, and without hesitation, he once again launched an offensive against Dragon Turtle.
While you are sick, I will kill you!
laugh!
The blood sword pierced the dragon turtle's huge eyeball, and then stirred twice to destroy its brain tissue.
The dragon turtle twitched violently, and after a few seconds, it completely stiffened.
Shane thought the battle was over.
But at this moment, a gap suddenly opened on the skin of the Dragon Turtle's face.
Then, a pale, human eyeball opened there!
Indescribable evil and blasphemy are hidden deep in this eyeball.
Immediately afterwards.
It's the second one, the third one, the fourth one...
It was not until the entire body of the dragon turtle was covered with dense eyeballs that the changes finally stopped.
Even if you are not a patient with trypophobia, your scalp will definitely be numb and you will feel physiological discomfort when you see this scene.
"Is this the blasphemy that Xian Ge said?"
"But what the hell are they?"
Xia En frowned slightly.
He could feel that these eyeballs were very different from the dense eyeballs of [Sir of Yousui], like a cold dead thing.
Suddenly, the [Salary King's Certificate] on the back of Xia En's right hand became slightly hot and slowly appeared.
Such changes quickly attracted the attention of many eyeballs.
What surprised Xia En was that a weird sound that could not distinguish between male and female came out of his eyeballs.
"...The legacy of Experimental Subject No. 8 was detected..."
"...Start scanning..."
Countless eyeballs fell on Xia En.
But soon, the tone of the eyeballs suddenly became sharp and painful.
"...Scan failed... ███ error occurred! Error occurred!"
"Target ████!"
"██Flee...Flee!"
In these sharp words, there were many words that Xia En could hear but could not understand.
The next second, all the eyes on the dragon turtle's body suddenly burst open, and even a faint scream of pain could be heard!
The cracks on the dragon turtle's body closed at an extremely fast speed.
But the moment they all disappeared, Xia En heard them shouting something loudly in a trance.
【The truth...I already know it! 】
This all sounds like a long time, but in fact, it takes less than half a minute from the time the eyeballs appear to when they completely disappear.
But the amount of information displayed made Xia En unable to recover for a long time.
"What exactly are these eyeballs?"
"The legacy of Experimental Subject No. 8 refers to the [Certificate of King Xin]?"
"Then Experimental Subject No. 8 is..."
Xia En was shocked and a little unbelievable.
The powerful King Xin, who burned like a torch, was actually just an experimental subject of certain existences. No one would believe it if he told it.
Moreover, No. 8...
Doesn’t it mean that there were seven similar existences before him?
However, this is just a one-sided statement from the weird eyeball after all, and cannot be used as real evidence.
"But then again, why are they so afraid of me?"
"Also, the last words left by the eyeballs..."
The more he thought about it, the more Xia En felt that there was still endless fog between him and the truth.
I just came to conquer an ancient dragon species, why did I encounter such a strange thing?
After looking at [The Blessing of the Sea], Xia En sighed silently, collected his thoughts, and began to harvest the spoils of this battle.
[It has been detected that "Secret Sea Crystal" (special) is present in the corpse. Should it be absorbed? 】
"absorb!"
[Ship Soul Experience +5%! 】
[Black Swan "Solid" +1! 】
[Talent: Dragon Physique (Inferior) → (Ordinary)! 】
[Comprehensive quality: 0.51→0.53! 】
The familiar feeling of secret power rushed to his mind, and Xia En felt that his body was slightly stronger.
——For ordinary humans, obtaining [Dragon Physique] should have a huge increase in physical fitness.
But for Xia En, who is already superior in various attributes, the extent of improvement is naturally very limited.
[Get the trophy: the horn of the Black Stone Dragon Turtle! 】
[Quality: precious]
[Type: Material]
[Description: The horn of a giant dragon turtle living in black stone veins has the characteristics of "withering", "decay" and "dragon power"! 】
[Can be used as the main material of the great sword. 】
In addition to the dragon turtle's horn, its turtle shell is also a good material.
Xia En originally wanted to dismantle the flesh, leather, and bones of the dragon turtle and have a feast of dragon turtle meat tonight.
But after seeing the description that appeared on the panel, he couldn't help but frown slightly.
[Dragon turtle meat contaminated by "truth"]
[Quality: Poor]
[Type: Material]
[Description: The original nutrients and energy of the flesh and blood that have been parasitized by the "Eye of Truth" have been absorbed. 】
【Not recommended for use as food. 】
In fact, after cutting open the dragon turtle's skin, Xia En also keenly discovered the difference between them and ordinary flesh.
Wherever the eyeball has grown, the flesh and blood become extremely pale, and the fibrous tissue is completely destroyed.
When you touch it with your hands, it no longer feels like flesh and blood, but more like rough white paper.
In fact, not only the flesh and blood on the surface, but also the internal organs and bones were obviously alienated.
Only parts like the horn and the turtle shell still have secret power left.
"Why does it feel like your head has been robbed?"
Xia En let out a breath, feeling slightly unhappy.
At this time, Joey and Xiange confirmed that the overall situation was decided, and then trotted over.
Shane looked at Joey and said with a strange expression: "Now, can you tell me the name of the spell you just cast?"
Joey's face turned red and he hesitated: "They are acute gastroenteritis burst surgery, and...and..."
Seeing that she really couldn't speak, Xian Ge added: "And...anal tightening surgery!"
"hiss……"
Shane took a breath and stood in awe.
Acute gastroenteritis surgery can also be called diarrhea surgery.
Just talking about this spell is outrageous enough.
Imagine that you suddenly have unbearable abdominal pain during a fight. Whether you spray or not spray, it will cause both mental and physical damage.
And once combined with the anal tightening technique, the power of this combination is not as simple as one plus one.
The final effect is chilling just by imagining it.
This is even more unethical than a spell like [Coughing Spell] that interrupts spell casting.
No wonder Joey refused to say anything before.
However, being able to use it against a creature with certain spell resistance, such as the giant dragon turtle, shows that Joey's magic skills are much higher than before.
It can be considered a hidden trump card.
Xia En couldn't help but sigh: "There are really all kinds of spells in that magic notebook..."
After seeing this weird and unique combination of skills.
He felt that no matter what weird spells appeared in the notebook, he would not be surprised.
Later, Xia En asked: "Xian Ge, have you ever heard of...'The truth, I already know it'?"
"truth?"
Xian Ge murmured with a thoughtful expression on his face.
"I seem to have heard this sentence somewhere..."
"The truth...that's right! It's the Truth Society!"
The bronze dragon was startled and said in a very fearful tone: "This is an ancient organization that was passed down many years ago."
"No one knows what their true purpose is, but their shadow seems to be found behind many historical events."
Xia En frowned: "Is it older than your previous life?"
Xian Ge was silent for a few seconds and shook his head slightly.
"……I have no idea."
"I don't remember if this is a memory from my past or a message I heard in the Ember Shelter."
"As you know, the Class A beings in the shelter are each weirder than the last. I sometimes hear their conversations."
Xia En murmured to himself: "The truth will..."
Suddenly, some of the clues in his mind suddenly connected together.
Judging from the situation on this island, it is obvious that the Truth Society has done something here to leave a blasphemous pollution to the ancient dragons and ancient dragon species.
Moreover, it has only been in the past ten years or so that this kind of pollution has become severe.
It just so happened that Joey's mother, Diana, suddenly disappeared during this period.
Is it possible that Diana accidentally stumbled into the actions of the Truth Society and was kidnapped by them?
Or could it be that Diana was one of the targets of the Truth Society?
Suppose this conjecture is true.
So, the place where Joey was born is undoubtedly one of the strongholds of the Truth Society!
Shane's thoughts fluctuated.
Although this is just a guess, it is highly likely!
After thinking for a moment, Xia En silently glanced at the huge corpse, then at Joey, and finally suppressed his chaotic thoughts.
In any case, only by gaining enough strength can you have the capital to explore the truth.
Thinking of this, Xia En strode towards the depths of the black stone vein.
The last magic potion he needs [Black Stone Essence] is right there!
