Arad's Sword

Chapter 792 The Mysterious Frozen Ocean

Frozen Ocean, the forbidden zone in the extreme north of the eternally frozen glacier on the fourth floor of the Demon Realm.

It is said to be "the land of the extreme north", but in fact, according to Rotes, the area of ​​the ice ocean is even larger than the combined area of ​​all the land in the fourth layer of the Demon Realm.

As the only large-scale water area in the entire Demon Realm, this place is also known as the "Sea of ​​the Demon Realm", and it is the only area outside the endless abyss controlled by the apostles.

And because the fourth layer of the demon world can be said to be the most central position of the seventh layer of the devil world, and therefore, the eighth apostle Rotes can also be regarded as sitting in all directions.

However, these are old things more than half a century ago.

After Rotes was sent to the sky and sealed by the sea of ​​clouds by "tear-eyed" Herder insidiously, this unpredictable ice ocean lost its owner and became truly mysterious.

What is the current situation in the ice ocean? Even Rost himself is not clear. The only thing that is certain is that after solving Rotes, "Tear Eyes" Herder must have a backup, and he will never let it go. This vast expanse of ice ocean doesn't matter.

As for the real situation, only Midi personally investigated it.

Fortunately, at least Rotes is very clear about the various roads in the frozen ocean. In this regard, at least he can give Midi a lot of advice.

Generally, people who enter the frozen ocean, no matter if they are greedy demons or strong men who intend to test, will walk from the ocean.

After all, the temperature of the seawater in the frozen ocean is close to zero, and the resistance is huge. Even if the "awakened king" comes here, he doesn't know how long he will swim just by swimming.

However, if you really just walk across the ocean like this, you will encounter various problems instead.

Fog, storms, thunderstorms, mirages and more...

It can be said that the surface of the frozen ocean, the entire ocean surface larger than the permafrost glacier, is itself a huge magic circle!

Its name is "Phantom Mirror Array".

This magic circle is so huge that even the "Supreme Powerful" cannot control it. It is completely based on the ice ocean and operates by itself, and it has been running endlessly for tens of thousands of years.

Anyone who walks on the ocean is tantamount to throwing himself into a trap. Unless he has a very high level of breaking illusions and an incomparably strong cultivation base, he will be trapped to death in the end.

Even if it is Midi, although it is not too difficult to crack this magic circle bit by bit, the problem is that the "magic mirror magic circle" is too big, I am afraid that even if you give Midi ten years, there is no way to crack it completely , the result is no different from not being able to crack it.

Therefore, to enter the frozen ocean, one cannot walk from the surface of the ocean at all, but must dive underwater and walk from the bottom of the sea.

As for how to walk from the bottom of the sea, Rotes gave an answer——

submarine.

Although Midi dived directly into the water there is no problem at all, but to do so, he must use the power of the domain.

This will not only waste physical strength, but more importantly, the fluctuation of the power of the domain is likely to alarm the powerful people of various races in the depths of the ice ocean.

Although all these strong men were under the command of the eighth apostle Rotes and did not dare to disobey any of his orders, but now, everything has changed.

Today's Rotes only has the will of the soul left, and the power is only as strong as the second awakening, not even as good as the "awakened king".

Even if he appeared again, who would obey the former eighth apostle?

Demon world, this is a place where power is the most important thing.

No one will maintain respect for the remnant souls that are now wiped out just because you used to be a "supreme powerhouse". It is more likely that these sea powerhouses are trying to devour the will of Rotes to further strengthen themselves.

Moreover, in the sea water, Midi's concealment ability has been greatly reduced, and he is not as comfortable as he is on land at all, but the sea powerhouses are all at ease and have the home court advantage.

Therefore, the way of directly entering the water is not suitable.

Only a submarine is the best choice.

As for where to get this kind of "submarine" that doesn't even have blueprints, it's not a problem at all.

In a word - everywhere.

As early as thousands of years ago, the eighth apostle Rotes had already set up hundreds of secret underwater bases on the outskirts of the ice ocean.

In each base, there are all kinds of machinery used in deep-sea warfare that he has researched through alchemy.

Submarines are one of the most important items.

Under the guidance of Rotes, Midi quietly entered the water from the bay of death, sneaked all the way in the shallow sea area, bypassed several phantom formations, and soon arrived at a secret base at the edge of the deep sea.

This base was laid down by Rotes when he was bored 800 years ago, and it belongs to the latest generation of bases - from the perspective of the "Supreme Powerful" time concept.

And in this base, there is a submarine ready to go.

Its name is "Nautilus".

Although it has been lost by the creator here for hundreds of years, the hull made of tungsten steel from the Demon Realm has not changed in any way. It is not a problem for the strong man of "Alchemy Patriarch" to exist.

In just a few hours, the Nautilus had taken on a completely new look under Midi's hands, and then quietly dived into the near-zero blue waters of the deep ice ocean.

As soon as the submarine entered the water, it immediately dived close to the bottom of the sea at a very high speed.

Although the pressure in the depths of the sea is huge, the Nautilus was built by the eighth apostle Rotes himself—although it was when he was bored—he didn’t feel anything about this level of pressure at all.

And the closer to the bottom of the sea, the safer.

After all, the ocean is not calm, there are all kinds of currents and turbulence, there are also schools of fish and monsters migrating everywhere, and even occasionally there are some ocean powerhouses patrolling their own territory.

In this place, even Midi's spiritual power has been weakened a lot. Besides, in the ocean, there are many races that rely on spiritual power. Once Midi sweeps away the spiritual power for hundreds of kilometers, it may be even more ostentatious. , attracting more monsters.

Therefore, based on his own experience as Ocean No.1, Rotes formulated a plan of "using submarines to advance on the seabed".

In this way, Meddy doesn't have to do anything at all, as long as he sits on the Nautilus, he can move forward unimpeded all the way.

The single biggest remaining problem is time itself.

The icy ocean is huge, and it is not a few days to reach the deep sea kingdom where Rotes is located, from the extreme northern port of Death Harbor.

More importantly, during this period of time, the second apostle "Tear Eyes" Herder is likely to discover something.

After all, Midi had done a lot of killing in the Underdark Region, directly beheading three of the demon princes under the command of the four second apostles, and kidnapping one more.The strong men cultivated by the three great temples were also killed by Midi, leaving only two or three big cats and kittens.

It is impossible not to attract attention to such a large-scale mutation.

Even if Midi deliberately made various arrangements before leaving, how long can he keep the secret from that shrewd second apostle?

It's no secret that Lord Sulfur has returned to the Magma Deathland, and many people in the Fallen Fortress have seen him.

Everyone is dead, only Lord Sulfur is left. If you don't check him, who will you check?

Next, it was easy to find out that there were two people beside the Lord of Sulfur, one of whom was terrifyingly strong, and the final destination of these three was the fourth layer of permafrost glacier.

The reason why Midi adopted the strategy of hiding alone after reaching the fourth floor is largely to avoid leaving traces.

But even so, the trace of using the cross-domain teleportation array is already obvious enough.

At that time, the second apostle "Tear Eyes" Herder will definitely make a lot of arrangements, otherwise, she will not be an apostle who can stand on the highest point of the devil world.

At that time, how to deal with the blockade from the apostles?

Midi asked herself, but after a while, she couldn't get an answer.

"Don't think too much, I'm here."

The voice of the eighth apostle, Rotes, sounded slowly.

After spending so long with Midi, how could he not see what was on Midi's mind?

What's more, Luo Tesi also saw what Midi did along the way, so he naturally knew what the other party was worried about.

"It's true, if you successfully reincarnate and restore the cultivation of the 'Supreme Powerful', all problems will be solved. However, how long does it take to reincarnate?"

Midi shook the question out of her mind and asked again.

"It's not long or short, exactly one week. However, this refers to the time required from the beginning of the reincarnation ceremony to the end. Before that, in order to carry out this super-large life refining, we have to make some preparations." .If my deep sea kingdom still maintains a certain scale and is not completely demolished by the second apostle, it will take about three days. Otherwise, I will have to try to re-open a life refining altar here."

Rotes replied with extremely accurate words.

Midi has already brought all the materials needed for reincarnation, and the only variable is the "refining altar of life" itself.

Only the "altar of life refining" built on the ice veins deep in the frozen ocean can allow Rotes to gain the greatest power after reincarnation, and directly restore to the level of the "supreme powerhouse" back then.

Whether or not the altar can be found is the most important thing in Midi's trip.

But soon, Midi discovered that the problem came earlier than he imagined.

On the fifth day of sailing on the bottom of the sea, Midi suddenly felt an undisguised killing intent enveloped her head.

Obviously, the Nautilus, which was sneaking quietly and low-key on the bottom of the sea, was being targeted.

Moreover, judging from this area rather than just a single killing intent, it is definitely not just an enemy who is eyeing the Nautilus.

"It's a group of silver sharks, but... it seems to be a little different from the normal group of silver sharks..."

Rotes' voice sounded.

As the real number one powerhouse in the ocean, he can directly distinguish the opponent's race and strength just by feeling the killing intent.

However, despite distinguishing it, Rotes still couldn't help frowning, as if he felt something very bad.
