I became a member of the ancient gods

Chapter 254 Breath of the Abyss

Lin Zhong turned his head to look at Fran, very surprised.

But Fran didn't look at him, her eyes were still staring at Irene.

This straightforward answer made Eileen fall silent. She raised her eyebrows and smiled softly: "It's nothing. I just didn't expect that after not seeing each other for a few days, you actually called me."

"So, you should know that you are really in the way now." Fran pointed at Irene and said, "Finish the matter and go back early."

"I just like to get in other people's way. And sometimes the food on other people's plates looks more delicious, doesn't it?" Eileen winked at Lin Zhong intentionally or unintentionally.

Lin Zhong rolled his eyes in return.

"Does it make sense? No matter how hard you work, no one really likes you." Fran said expressionlessly.

The smile on Erin's face faltered.

Lin could clearly feel the atmosphere at the scene, and it suddenly solidified.

After a moment, Eileen smiled and replied: "What you said is really interesting..."

But before she could finish speaking, Fran added: "Am I wrong? Those puppets of yours have all been washed away their independent personalities, and they are no different from the ones I made with parasites. And no matter what you are now No matter how hard you try, Lin will never like you. Is there any point in doing this other than to make others uncomfortable? "

"Actually, I never thought about it before I met Brother Zhong. It's actually quite interesting to be annoying. Watching a useful man clearly hate me, but still having to keep in touch with me for mutual use, is actually better than playing around wantonly. Those useless men are much more interesting," Erin replied.

Lin Zhong frowned when he heard this.

"Can you only find fun in this kind of thing? Wouldn't it be better to develop some new interests?" Fran looked at Eileen, "Do you want me to teach you how to cook?"

Erin's smile disappeared.

Fran didn't mean to be sarcastic, she just said her thoughts directly.But the words sounded unusually spicy to Erin's ears.

Lin Zhong remained silent. For the first time, he experienced the sharpness of Fran's words. People who don't have a spare city sometimes go straight to the point, and sometimes they are more harmful.

Irene was silent for a while, and finally let the smile return to her face, but this time, in Lin Zhong's opinion, the smile was not as amusing as usual, but with obvious helplessness.

"No, maybe it's because I'm only allowed to survive, so my interests are a little distorted. Sometimes I really envy you..." She looked back and forth between Lin Zhong and Fran, "Freedom, you can choose your own way of survival. . If I can only live for myself for a day or two, and then die at someone's hands, I probably think it's worth it."

Lin did not comment on this passage. Regarding Irene's words, he would not specifically try to figure out whether it was an act or the truth. He would only consider whether the other party's words were of value to him, whether they were truth or not. Still a lie.

"Of course, if possible, I still hope you can show your respect when the time comes." A familiar smile appeared on Eileen's face again, and then she raised her hand and pointed towards Fran, "You tentacle girl is really annoying when you talk, and I don't like it either. I don’t want to talk to you anymore. I’m going to leave after talking to Brother Zhong about the business this time, so don’t get in the way, okay?”

"That's best." Fran seemed to finally accept it.

"First of all, congratulations to Brother Zhong for becoming an apostle. In this way, with the core you obtained before, you should be able to participate in the battle for demigods with the Lord of Time." Irene clapped her hands at Lin Zhong first.

"At this stage, it's time for you to provide information on the demigod's evolution ceremony, right?" Lin Zhong said seriously.

"Brother Zhi, have you been to the center of the abyss?" Eileen asked.

"I've been there. There is a time-deceleration barrier in the center. The closer you get, the slower the flow of time becomes. If you don't have apostle-level resistance or the ability to accelerate time, you should be severely affected if you get close to the center. Lin Zhong replied, "Is this the remains' protection for themselves, or is it a test for those who intend to become demigods?"

"You can understand it however you want. In short, this is an effect that exists in the center of the abyss and is released by the remains. In fact, the center zone of each abyss has different trials. There is mental interference in the center of the No. [-] abyss, and there is mental interference in the No. [-] abyss. It contains substances that can cause life forms to undergo apoptosis, and Abyss No. [-] is a time-deceleration barrier... In short, the effects of the eight abyss correspond to the abilities of the eight ancient gods. It can be said to be the release of the power of the ancient gods, or it can be said to be the release of the apostles. Our trial." Erin said.

"Then I can evolve as long as I go in and get the remains now?" Lin Zhong asked.

"You can try, but no one has succeeded. I don't recommend it. After all, the power level of the remains is still above that of the apostle, and it is impossible to completely avoid the impact." Irene replied, "It is best to wait until the abyss needs to move to a suitable cycle. point."

"The operating cycle of the abyss? It refers to the cycle of its contraction and expansion?" Lin Zhong asked.

All abyss will continue to shrink and expand to a certain extent. The first researcher to discover this law once compared this to the "breathing" of the abyss.It's just that this "breathing" cycle is very long, and it may take several days for one expansion and one contraction, which will cause the boundary of the abyss to deviate by several kilometers. This is common sense to abyss hunters.

"Yes, the abyss can 'breathe'. Moreover, in recent years, the abyss will take a 'deep breath' every once in a while. It is a huge contraction and expansion, and the movement of the boundary can reach more than Thirty kilometers. And when the abyss expands to its maximum, the power in the central area will be much thinner than usual." Irene said.

"Is that the best time to enter the center?" Lin Zhong asked.

"Yes, at that time, the apostles who have the ability to resist the central effect will move closer to the corresponding abyss. When the apostle cores concentrated in the central area reach a certain number, the remains will appear. Kill the competitors in the central area, and only one will remain, that individual , you will obtain the position of demigod." Irene explained.

After listening to this, Lin finally thought about it and asked, "When will the next violent expansion of the abyss be?"

"This is difficult to predict. We can only continue to observe it through satellites and drones. Before it expands violently, it will shrink significantly once, and then it will start to expand about five to ten days later. If the contraction is observed, that is The time has come. Apostles who are qualified to become demigods seem to sense it in advance, as if they have been summoned." Irene explained.

"What's that feeling like?" Lin Zhong asked.

"This is meaningless to explain. Brother, you will understand it when the time is up." Irene smiled, "By the way, there is actually an abyss that is entering a period of substantial contraction, and it should start to expand soon. ."

"Which abyss?" Lin Zhong asked.

"Abyss No. [-], the site of giants." Irene said with a sudden smile on her face, "Brother Zhong, do you have any acquaintances who 'just happened' to explore the abyss recently?"
