  Chapter 594 Sweeping the Maze (13)

   After a short rest, the Huaiguang rescue team once again started walking towards the exit under the guidance of Ian.

Not every choice point chosen by Ian can be absolutely safe, but at least it is a path that can lead to life among many deaths—but now, after Ian has the power of the dead king, all the original ones still exist. There was a choice of pale red and scarlet, all turned into a plain white.

Safety.

  There is only one possibility.

   Regarding this, Ian has only one thought.

  —Prognostic vision, indeed, still has limitations.

   "Because I have become stronger, I can't see many troubles... The stronger and weaker it is, the information in the precognitive horizon will be distorted."

   "If I become the fifth energy level in the future, then the only things I can clearly foresee in this world are the disasters that will destroy the world."

  That being said, the Vision of Foresight can still solve many small things that he may have missed, but this can only happen when Ian is lax. Once he is serious, the Vision of Foresight will not be able to clearly predict.

  Thinking in his heart, but in reality, the Knight of the Valley wielded his armor-like black long sword and charged together with Redemption and Red Blade.

  The three of them swept across everything in front of them, clearing away the dense phantom army in front of them like chopping melons and vegetables.

Led by the Knights of the Valley, the road along the way has turned into a vast ice layer, and the deadly cold air still lingers in it for a long time, and the surroundings of the road are either the mist of phantom shattering, or the heads of demonic beasts. Corpse made of ice.

And these monsters come from all over the world—the ice-armored ghost beasts in the northern part of Yanjiang are the overlords of the local area. They are extremely resistant to severe cold, and their five-meter-high bodies have been modified to have steel and iron bones. , the ice blades condensed on both arms contain a strong poison, which is enough to wreak havoc all over the place in Nanling.

  But Ian forcibly used ice to take away its vitality, and then he fitted himself together and pierced the heart with a sword, piercing the giant beast with hot blood directly, and the flesh and blood were completely frozen in place.

And the evil Poison Ivy monster, a special monster from the vicinity of Yuanjian Port, is almost immune to physical attacks. Its extremely tough and soft body is difficult to cut even with a sharp blade, and its sticky venom is almost impossible to be attacked. Freeze, so that the general method of using ice and freezing to kill will not work.

  But Ian didn't bother to think about how to solve the opponent's characteristics. He directly used all his strength to 'step on' the vine monster.

Immediately, a shrill howl erupted from the vine monster's body, and the body fluid in the flexible body burst out from the pores on the body surface as if a giant twisted a towel forcefully, and the giant body over ten meters long was stepped into by Ian The earth, from a mass of twisted vines on the ground, turned into an anemone.

   Still shriveled sea anemones.

  With the power of the dead king, Ian doesn't need to expose his skills at all, and can run over with just strength.

  Crossing choice gates one after another, crushing powerful enemies one after another, they made a way to the end of the subspace maze.

Yes. What appeared in front of Ian and the Huaiguang rescue team was nothing but a group of phantoms armed with the power of another dead king, forcibly strengthened with technology, and distorted their nature and abilities.

   A bunch of dull dolls.

  As long as he is not besieged by thousands of phantom armies, Ian believes that with the strength of the three core combat forces of the Bright Sword and the Red Blade, he can completely pass this seemingly difficult level.

Of course, there may be dangers, and people may die... But under the control of Yingguang's unique sublimation skills that can control vitality and heal wounds, most minor injuries will be healed soon, and serious injuries can also be paid for by paying future life , and speed up the recovery to the point where it does not affect the action.

   Not to mention, the current Ian, under the power of the dead king, is already invincible in this subspace maze.

The shape of the sky-wrapping armor was originally quite round and smooth, suitable for air movement, but now, under the blessing of the Nether Armor of the Dead King, it began to become sharp-edged, making the blue light and scarlet blood lines appear in the body. The surface spread, and even layers of blood ice condensed out of thin air.

  Even the Chongyuan iron sword in his hand was covered with a layer of dead ice that could take away all life and even the power of dead souls. Its surface is surrounded by clouds of white and blue mist, which distorts the refracted light.

More than that.

  Following another jump into the selection port, in a jungle-like box garden, a giant tiger monster over six meters high appeared in front of Glen Knight.

   It is the second energy level form of the sharp-clawed tiger. After undergoing the transformation of Feiyandi, the two claws are replaced by alloy sharp blades, and the muscles on the surface of the body are also neatly distributed, appearing extremely developed, like armor.

This alloy armored tiger is almost invulnerable, and its only weakness lies in the spine on its back. However, its tall stature and dexterous movements make it difficult to get around its back. It is more difficult than Ian has ever seen in the entire subspace maze. All the second-level phantoms and beasts are enough to cause considerable trouble to the entire team, and it is not impossible to reduce staff.

  Even Ian in the past could only rely on the defensive power of the rock-forged knight to resist the opponent's attack, and then counter-attack to fight hard, and finally go to execution.

  But with the power of the dead king, Ian is just an instant body.

  His body, together with the armor on his body surface, turned gray-black in an instant, and fiber-like fine textures emerged on his body surface and spread to the whole body.

   Then, he disappeared at a seemingly slow, but actually rapid speed, turning into a blurred phantom.

   Ian, who escaped into ghost form, easily avoided the tiger smashing the ground, and the broken palm that blown the surrounding woods away came to its back.

  Finally, he turned into a prototype and returned to the physical world.

   Slashed with a sword, the originally strong muscle armor has shrunk and shriveled, and the tiger's head snapped off.

  One of the dead king's abilities 'ghost'... This allows Ian to pass through most physical barriers, even human flesh and blood, in a ghost state. Every time he passes through a flesh and blood body, he can also capture part of the opponent's energy, slowing down the opponent's reaction speed and slowing down their thinking.

   But there are also limitations. If it is a person with a fire attribute or a very high quality of source quality, passing through them will not be able to capture the essence.

  Ian is familiar with the dead king's abilities through the battles on the road, and now he has summed up a total of four.

  Almost all the 'Ghost Armor' that can withstand a part of the energy of the attack.

  A 'ghost' that allows people to transform into nothingness and move quickly to plunder the energy of the weak.

  Corruption curse can be attached to the contact attack, which can quickly destroy the enemy's physical form and decay the enemy's life for its own use.

   And the last, and most powerful ability—through the number of dead souls in the body, there is no limit to increase the energy of the source quality spirit, and all the basic qualities of the "dead king of the past".

  【Past Dead King】

  【Your body is integrated with a special kind of psychic aggregate, which will continuously convert the power in the virtual world and the subspace into pure essence source matter and spiritual energy, strengthening your life essence】

  【You will get the 'body of a large group' and 'ghost essence'. The more psychic aggregates lodged in your body, the stronger your power will be, and you will automatically become the host of all the souls around you, and your body will be regarded as the best place for soul nurturing]

  Even the silver chip gave this ability a very high rating—it won’t display general abilities, let alone give a special description.

   There is a very interesting point.

  Compared to other inheritances and psychic powers that use other people's lives to strengthen oneself, the peculiar inheritance of the dead king is that it does not have any skills to use the dead souls residing in the body.

to the opposite.

  The dead king is essentially the 'shell' that protects these dead souls.

   Moreover, the incomparably powerful power of the dead king is essentially lent by the dead souls to the dead king. If the dead souls are not willing to serve the dead king as a king, then the king has no power.

  Even, relying on virtual world and subspace, phantoms calling dead souls can't do it.

  It's hard to imagine, this looks extremely brutal, even called an anti-human inheritance...but it's just for a strong man who creates and protects the dead.

   "Really or not... Could it be that this is the real purpose of Grand Duke Sorin?"

  After realizing this, Ian actually frowned slightly. He recalled the various research conducted by Grand Duke Thorin.

  Artificial soul... Inheritance of the dead king... The technology of cooperating with Lingzhiyuan and Feiyandi, "Dead River" and "Savior"...

  Could it be that... Grand Duke Thorin's real purpose is this?

  "They are thinking about a brand new social form? One person is the country, and one is the people..."

  Ian is not sure about this, but to be honest, if it is true, then whether it is Grand Duke Thorin or Inaiga II, their thinking is a bit strange, even a little incredible.

  But now is not the time to think about this.

  Because Ian had brought the Huaiguang rescue team to the exit while Ian was killing all the way.

   This is an empty hall and a door that is not completely sealed.

  The hall is very narrow, and there is hardly any room to dodge and move. After arriving here, the more sensitive knights became nervous instantly, because they realized that if a few powerful phantoms start to attack them as soon as they arrive in Little Garden, then even well-trained They also have to pay a very painful price.

   Their previous preparations are of limited use.

   But the strange thing is that there are no phantoms or defenders here—the door to the subspace maze is wide open, and the dead king has not left any power here.

  So, upon arriving here, Ian knew one thing very well.

   It's time to say goodbye.
