"Well, once we clear the abyss forces in the core area, we will have almost conquered them. We will then have to do another task to clear the fog barrier, otherwise the monsters will spawn again after a while."
"It's over? Didn't you say there was still a demigod boss?" Rhine asked doubtfully.
"It's not over yet. There's the Abyss's base camp in the crack. That's where the final battle is. Only by destroying the base camp can we officially defeat the Abyss. Because I can't defeat a demigod-level warrior at that time, I have to rely on the power of the plot NPCs."
At the same time, Jesby also talked about the war between the dragons and the abyss.
Because even in the powerful dragon clan, a demigod-level warrior has a pivotal position. According to the immortal cultivation novels, he is the supreme elder. Therefore, the dragon clan was really angry and sent out a more powerful team. This time it was no longer an investigation, but a crusade.
At first, the expedition team killed a lot of people in the outskirts of the Dark Continent, but as the distance went deeper, the strong men of the Dragon Clan became solemn, and when they saw thousands of monsters in the God Realm, they turned around and ran.
However, the dragon clan's continuous "provocations" have angered the abyss, and after receiving the order, the monsters in the divine realm rushed towards the dragon clan in an overwhelming manner. Unable to escape, the dragon clan's expeditionary group could only hold on to a corner with difficulty, and use special secret methods to ask for help from the dragon clan headquarters.
After receiving the call for help, the Dragon Emperor immediately summoned all the divine dragons in the dragon clan and marched towards the Dark Continent in a mighty force.
The war between the dragons and the abyss has begun.
This is why all the powerful dragons disappeared overnight.
Because the incident happened suddenly and the situation was urgent, not much information was left behind at the time, and all the dragons set off immediately after receiving the order.
The divine dragons discovered by the High Elf Dynasty were not left behind by the dragon clan, but were a breakthrough later.
Chapter 192: The Dragon Egg That Cannot Hatch
"Do all the abysses in the world have the help of story-based NPC forces?" Rhine asked curiously.
Because he felt that the dragons and high elves were not truly extinct, there was a high probability that they had established a line of defense in the Dark Continent to block the invasion of the abyss.
This would explain why someone mysteriously disappeared shortly after breaking through the divine realm. It is very likely that they were summoned to fight on the "front line".
"Yes, at least the players' worlds I know all have NPC forces. Otherwise, it would be unrealistic for a player to repel the invasion of the Abyss alone."
"It is precisely because of the restraint of NPC forces that the erosion of the abyss is limited to a certain range. This can be regarded as a kind of balance of the system." The Lord God explained.
Sure enough, it was just as Rhine thought.
For so many years, there has been a mysterious force protecting this world from the erosion of the abyss. They are most likely a guardian organization similar to the "Original Imperial City" formed by the dragon clan, high elves and other powerful gods.
Otherwise, as the Lord God said, it is unrealistic to rely on one person's strength to repel the abyss.
Wait! What do you mean by somewhat unrealistic? What does somewhat mean?
"Well, let me ask you, you didn't break through the abyss by yourself, did you?"
"Why not? Those are all resources."
"Although you can't gain experience or drop items by killing monsters in the abyss, you can gain faction contribution points."
"Contribution points can be exchanged for various resources from the plot NPC forces, especially the crystals of divine will. And if the contribution points are high, you can also gain the favor of the NPCs. When the prestige is high, you can even run for the position of leader of the NPC forces."
"So if you have the ability, I still suggest you go solo. It's best to clear all the Abyss forces in your home world and then clear out the resources in the faction store."
"Because the Abyss Map was originally prepared for players in the God Realm period, the resources exchanged are almost all only available to players in the God Realm."
"I've calculated that if all the resources in the store are consumed, it will be enough for players to reach the high level of the God Realm or even the peak. This is why I have the confidence to hunt gods after breaking through the God Realm."
"As for the final decisive battle, there will be a large number of demigods joining in, so it doesn't matter if we can't win. We can use the power of the plot forces."
"Anyway, as long as we destroy the enemy's headquarters in the abyss, the crisis of abyss invasion facing the player world will be completely resolved, and the final part of the main quest will be completed. At this point, if you don't plan to enter the abyss, the player will have completed the game."
"Excuse me, how far have you progressed in the main storyline?"
"The main quest of the main world has five rings in total, and I am now in the last ring. As for the main quest of the abyss world, you can only know it after completing the main quest of the main world."
"Yes, very strong. Thank you for your answer!"
Look at others, they are almost done with the game, and then look at myself… I haven’t even finished the first part of the main storyline.
"I'm not telling you all this to flatter you. I hope you can catch up with me as soon as possible, because I don't want to be the only one pursuing eternity."
"Actually, you're worrying too much. When this game continues for a few years, you'll find that more and more monsters are popping up like mushrooms after rain. By then, you may not be able to hold on to your number one spot," Rhine reminded.
Because the players of the infinite world are only strong in the early stage, and gradually slow down in the later stage. And the worlds of most players in this game are the type that are weak in the early stage, and become stronger as the game progresses. Especially the players of the super power world, it can be basically determined that the later stage of the game belongs to them.
"Really? Then I look forward to that day."
At the same time, Jasby finally finished telling the story of the tragic war between the dragons and the abyss.
This war lasted for thousands of years.
During these thousands of years, the high elves, who sensed the emptiness within the dragon clan, took the opportunity to overthrow the dragon clan's rule. Thus, the Age of Dragons, which had dominated the world for hundreds of thousands of years, came to an end, and the Age of High Elves rose.
Upon learning of the fall of the dynasty, the dragon clan was furious and wanted to return to the dynasty to rescue the emperor, but was stopped by the Dragon Emperor.
From the intelligence they learned, there are at least three demigods among the high elves. If they want to return to the court to rescue the emperor, they must send at least three demigods back, otherwise it will be meaningless.
However, as the highest combat power, the demigods played a pivotal role in this war. Let alone withdrawing four demigods at once, even withdrawing one demigod could cause the entire defense line to collapse.
Of course, the dragons were not so noble as to be willing to sacrifice themselves for the safety of the whole world. It was just that once the defense line collapsed, the dragons would be the first to be submerged in the abyss.
In the war with the abyss, they were trapped too deeply. Although they rescued the expedition group, they also caused the entire dragon clan to fall into a deeper quagmire, and it was difficult to extricate themselves.
There is a saying that goes, when you stare into the abyss, the abyss is also staring at you. Not to mention that the dragons are not just staring, but giving the abyss a big threat, so the abyss has been staring at the dragons, and will pounce on them without hesitation if they have the slightest flaw.
But the most important thing is that after overthrowing the dragon's rule, the high elves did not persecute the dragons, but simply expelled them from the country.
If a policy of annihilating the dragons is adopted, the dragons in the Dark Continent will probably be really furious, and would rather fight to the death than let the high elves pay the price.
But the dragons were not to be trifled with, and they began to make plans to drag the high elves into the water. In order to gain the trust of the high elves, they also took out the eggs of the royal family of the Sky Silver Dragon as dragon material.
Of course, it was a "dead egg" that had been corroded by the energy of the abyss and was definitely no longer able to hatch successfully.
As for the specific plan, it was obviously not something a giant dragon at the peak of the divine realm could know. Its mission was only to escort the dragon egg and bring a "letter" to the High Elf Dynasty.
In order to make the effect more realistic, the dragon clan designated a dangerous but non-lethal escape route for the escorting dragons and secretly sent dragons to escort them.
This is also the reason why the dragon was already dying when it brought the dragon egg and the letter to the High Elf Dynasty.
Of course, the dragon didn't know it was part of the plan until it died, and the high elves didn't know they were being tricked until they were dragged into it. The story told by Jesby was also the story that the dragons wanted the outside world to know.
It was not until Rhine arrived in the Dark Continent that he learned the true "truth". He had thought that the dragon clan was so great at that time.
After handing the egg and the letter to the High Elf Dynasty, the dragon dragged its broken body to a random island overseas and waited for death.
Originally, its mission was completed here, but unexpectedly, after several life-and-death crises, it developed a relationship with the egg and regarded the egg as its own child.
So it left its legacy behind, so that it could help the child in the future. But it didn't know until its death that the egg it was escorting was an egg that could never hatch.
The one who later inherited the dragon's legacy was the founder of the Dragon Bishop.
The truth he came into contact with was what the dragon believed to be the truth.
"So the dragon clan asked the high elves to save the egg? Did they save it in the end?" Rhine asked Laplace.
"It was saved, and there was nothing wrong with the egg itself. But there was an unknown energy that had been eroding the vitality of the dragon egg. The High Elf Dynasty tried many methods but to no avail. This is why the dragon egg was placed in the Fountain of Life, so that it could provide a continuous supply of vitality for the dragon egg." Laplace replied.
"That should be the power from the abyss." Jesby replied.
"Well, if we take the egg out of the fountain of life, won't it be dead if it doesn't get any vitality and is eroded by the abyss?" Rhine suddenly thought of a blind spot that he hadn't thought of before.
"You, the Dragon Tribe Bishop, should have a way to deal with it, right? Otherwise, you are harming it instead of saving it."
“………” Jesby was silent, because there was no relevant information in the memory inheritance left by the dragon, and she only found out about it today.
Looking at the confused Jessby, Rhine sighed.
"Fortunately, I have figured out a solution."
(As I said before, this book has two main plots. The main plot is to unify the world and repel the abyss, and the hidden plot is to conquer the abyss. The first five volumes mainly write about the main plot and intersperse the hidden plot. From the sixth volume onwards, the main plot will be the hidden plot, so this book will be very long. 5 million words is a conservative estimate. I don’t know how many people will be around when it is finished.)
The bounty is still 9 chapters short.
Chapter 193: Confiscating the House! Oh no, emptied the secret realm!
"Let's put the egg issue aside for now. How's Lucela?" Rhine asked Natasha.
After all, their original purpose was to save Lucela, so they could talk about saving the world later.
"I went to see it before you came."
"Xiao Lu's conjunctivitis has been cured under the effect of the Fountain of Life, but because of the mutation of the seal, Xiao Lu's consciousness is also in a dormant state. If you want to wake her up, you must first lift the seal." Natasha replied.
"It's good that you're cured. Tell me how to unblock it." Rhine instructed Jesby.
"Yes, young master. In fact, the entire park is a super-large formation, and the tower is the center of the formation. We only need to destroy the cores of the mazes in different areas of the park in a certain order, and finally destroy the core of the center of the formation, then the entire seal formation will automatically collapse." Jesby replied.
"Laplace, just in case, I have to ask you a question before unblocking." Rhine said with a serious face.
"Your Highness, please ask."
"Is there something powerful suppressed under this paradise of yours? As soon as the seal of the Fountain of Life is lifted, it will jump out."
It's not that Rhine is suspicious, but most film and television works or games follow this routine. It is impossible for the "director" to let the protagonist achieve his goal so easily. There will definitely be some accidents at the last minute to create suspense and conflict. This has almost become a rule.
"Your Highness... you are truly amazing. There is indeed a giant beast at the peak of the divine realm suppressed beneath the paradise. The high elf royal family uses formations to extract its vitality to nourish the Fountain of Life. The energy needed to support the operation of the entire paradise also comes from this suppressed giant beast."
“… See! I told you! This is called professionalism! I feel like I can even apply to be a drama director!” Rhine said loudly.
"Honey, this is a behemoth at the peak of the divine realm. Why do you look so happy?" Natasha asked puzzled.
In today's era, let alone the behemoths at the peak of the divine realm, no one would be able to counteract even the behemoths at the initial stage of the divine realm.
"Don't worry. This giant beast has been sucked of blood and squeezed for tens of thousands of years. I estimate that even if it is not dead now, it will soon become a mummy. How is it possible to still maintain the strength of the peak of the divine realm?" Rhine said confidently.
The most important thing is that the current game environment will not allow the peak of the Divine Realm to appear. He estimated that this dragon is most likely around the Half-Step Divine Realm, with a small chance of being at the initial stage of the Divine Realm.
"Your Highness is wise. According to the information fed back by the formation center, the giant beast's realm has now fallen to the peak of the half-step divine realm."
"If you are only a half-step god, then you don't have to worry at all, because the tower's own defense power is enough to suppress those below the god level."
"It's bad! There will definitely be problems if you say that. Are you sure you can defeat the initial stage of the Divine Realm?" Rhine asked.
"This... you can try it."
"Rhine, why don't you let me try to see if I can break through the divine realm?" Natasha suggested.
“No, not to mention that you are not sure about breaking into the God Realm now, even if you are sure, you have to bear with it.” Rhine said solemnly.
"Why? Are you afraid that I will encounter the curse of the divine realm?"
Tens of thousands of years have passed since the fall of the High Elves Era, and new gods have been born in these tens of thousands of years. Although the number is not large, there are still more than ten or twenty of them.
The problem is that these gods disappeared between heaven and earth shortly after the breakthrough. The one who persisted the longest was the Demon God Emperor, who was at the peak of the god realm. But unfortunately, he disappeared like the other gods in the god realm, and the Demon God Era fell apart.
No one knows where they went, as if they suddenly disappeared from the face of the earth, so it is called the curse of the divine realm.
Only Rhine knew that this was not a curse, but a conscription of men.
He was afraid that after Natasha broke through the divine realm, she would be taken away by the mysterious force that guards the world, otherwise he would have given her the blood fruit of the original elves long ago.
He had just confirmed his relationship with Natasha, so how could he bear to separate from her? The plot of him traveling thousands of miles to chase his wife was too stupid.
"That's about it. You have to hold it in until I can fight against the gods." As if afraid that Natasha would misunderstand, he added, "Don't worry, it won't take too long. You've already waited for more than four hundred years, so you don't mind waiting a few more years, right?"
"Yeah." Although Rhine was a little overbearing, she knew that he was caring about her, and she really liked it.
"Because there is still a key person missing to lift the ban, we can't start the action until tomorrow at the earliest. The main task today is to search the house! Oh no, move!" Rhine said excitedly.
The reason why he had to wait until tomorrow was because Hedgehog Head's cooling period had not yet passed and he could not enter his world. And the way he saved the dragon egg was to use Hedgehog Head's ability to kill the abyss energy on the dragon egg.
Because the abyss energy is not artificially created, the Hedgehog Head's Star Creation Map was changed from realm judgment to energy level judgment, that is, who has a higher mystery.
According to the current situation analysis, the energy level of the abyss invading the player's world will never exceed LV7, while the energy level of Hedgehog Head's Star Creation Map is the peak of LV8, which is an absolute crushing victory.
"Moving?" Everyone looked at Rhine in confusion.
"Just pack up all the valuables first."
The reason why Rhine is so anxious is because he is afraid!
What are you afraid of?
They were afraid that this paradise would collapse after the seal was lifted, and that it would be destroyed in the battle with the behemoth beasts from the divine realm.
He didn't want to be like the protagonist in Tomb Raider or Uncharted, who had to go through so much trouble to find treasure by solving puzzles every time, only to be taken advantage of by others every time, or the island sank or the cave or building collapsed, and after all the hard work, he still got nothing.
If nothing unexpected had happened just once, the treasure could have been brought home, but if it had succeeded, there would have been no sequel.
Because he is possessed by the protagonist's halo, he is now suffering from PTSD and always thinks the worst of everything.
If he doesn't empty the secret realm now, after rescuing Lucela and the Silver Dragon's egg, the secret realm will most likely collapse and finally disappear in the turbulence of time and space.
With his understanding of the game, this situation is not impossible, but very likely!
