Chapter 117: Great-Grandmother
(PS: Thanks to Alliance Leader Caolv for the alliance reward. This extra chapter is added as a sign of gratitude. Thanks again for the support.)
Su Xing knew that this Demon Castle 0.6 baseline reality Dream World had many mysteries. For example, the existence of Hao Cheng's Gaia maintenance personnel team was one of the mysteries.
Chu Minghao himself clearly stated that he could not establish a shelter in a 0.6 baseline reality world, and at that time Chu Minghao's strength was even stronger than Su Xing's current strength.
Since Su Xing stepped into the Demon Castle and established a level 1 event-type shelter, he guessed that what Chu Minghao said at the time should not mean that establishing "level 1, level 2, level 3" shelters was impossible, but that establishing the highest level shelter of its standard in that world was impossible.
Sure enough, Hao Cheng's team established a building-type shelter in this world and made a fortune because of it.
Su Xing thought it was simply a stroke of genius.
Although there is a Return Room in the Demon Castle, the location is uncertain. Every time it needs to be explored by manpower, and it is very likely to encounter elite-level monsters, or even commander-level monsters, which itself is a gamble with life.
But after Hao Cheng and the others established a building-type shelter, they used the Main Brain's judgment to artificially create a pollution-free safe zone in this Demon Castle. This is simply a gospel for all people exploring the Demon Castle!
If there is no such safe zone, then even if there is a Return Room, it is impossible for explorers to survive in the Demon Castle for a long time. The accumulation of Chaos pollution will sooner or later turn them into monsters, and the uncertainty of the Return Room will also constantly reduce the number of extraordinaries in the Demon Castle.
But once there is a pollution-free safe zone, the entire Demon Castle immediately becomes a leveling and monster-brushing point for improving strength and searching for treasures. As long as you are cautious and dare to fight for your life, there are plenty of extraordinaries willing to enter it.
At the same time, Hao Cheng and the others can go to other Dream Worlds through Gaia, obtain various materials from other Dream Worlds, such as food, fresh water, daily necessities, etc. They can also build various living facilities, entertainment facilities, medical facilities in the shelter, and even rent them to those large extraordinary factions for their guilds, temples, or offices.
This is simply the most top-level land speculation behavior!
And Hao Cheng and the others went a step further, even directly issuing currency for the safe zone. The five yuan just now, and the 1,000 yuan Hao Cheng promised to lend, could hire three Saint-level extraordinaries. One can imagine the value of this safe zone currency.
Land speculation plus banking, there is no more profitable business than this. And with the expansion of the safe zone, the value represented by its buildings and territory can also increase the level of the building-type shelter. At the same time, if there are event-type shelter personnel in the team, their reputation will also be passed on to all time points of this world.
The most critical thing is that they don't even have to fight. They just need to play with buildings and play with cultivation to improve the shelter level!
When Su Xing heard this before, he was simply amazed, and he admired Hao Cheng and his captain even more.
Look at others, then look at himself. Every time he fights for his life, even his teammates have died, and the seniors have all died. It is simply unwatchable!
At that time, Su Xing determined that the other party was a capable person, and it was the kind of super capable person who could start from scratch in a peaceful world and become the president of a Fortune 500 company.
But even such a capable person actually disappeared. According to Hao Cheng, he was dragged into the 0.5 baseline reality Dream World. Although the shelter still exists, it is estimated that it is already a state of life worse than death.
This... is probably the reason why Chu Minghao said he "couldn't" establish a shelter in 0.6 baseline reality.
Besides this, the Hall of Light and the news of the first Pope brought back by Xia Luote also made the mysteries of the Demon Castle even more confusing.
Could this first Pope be a Gaia maintenance personnel?
Is he dead?
Since knowing all this, Su Xing has been even more wary of this Demon Castle Dream World.
But he has reasons to move forward, and no matter what the mysteries are, whether it is Hao Cheng's side or the Hall of Light deep in the Graveyard District, they cannot stop him from moving forward.
Qiuqiu... is still waiting for him!
"Move aside, I'm begging you, move aside... okay?"
Right in front, an eight-meter-tall Minotaur, a floating skull with a diameter of about two meters, and three Chaos-side extraordinaries who had deformed but not yet completely turned into monsters, blocked the entrance from the Reception Hall to the Sewers.
Two commanders, three of the best among the Chaos extraordinaries, they had caught up with Su Xing and his group.
The Minotaur held a giant bronze axe and just panted, while the giant skull opened its mouth: "We don't have to use force, the Demon King invites you, outsider."
Su Xing put down the meatball on his back. He thought for a moment, raised his hand and pressed it down. The entire meatball immediately turned into meat paste, then turned into powder. The Puppeteer and the Hippogriff, these two commander-level monsters, were completely killed and freed from that painful torture.
Immediately, strange phenomena appeared on Xia Luote and Ma Li, and their momentum was rising steadily. With this, they were promoted to Rank Three and Rank Two extraordinaries respectively, but it seemed there was still something unfinished, not completely sublimated, or needed some items or rituals to achieve.
And the death of these two commander monsters also brought Su Xing a small amount of enhancement. His blood qi and blood were expanding rapidly. After a second or two, it calmed down. He sensed it, and with this, it was almost close to the improvement of 2,500 jin of wild boar demon meat. This magnitude was already not small. His Human Immortal Martial Arts skin and flesh tempering progress was almost completely achieved.
Su Xing twisted his body. He was still making his last effort: "I agree, I can go to see the Demon King, no problem, but wait for me to go to the Graveyard District to save my partner first, how about it?"
The Minotaur stepped forward, and light appeared in the skull's eyes. "Mortal, are you bargaining with the Demon King of the Demon Castle, the savior at the pinnacle of power and strength in this world?"
Su Xing sighed. He didn't hesitate anymore. Blood qi surged, blood qi erupted, and the red light all over his body shrank into the dantian. Then, looking at the giant Minotaur getting closer and closer to him, he cupped his fists with a calm expression and said: "Su Xing, met you."
The next moment, he appeared at the side of the Minotaur's foot, and after half a body rotation, he kicked toward the side of the Minotaur's lower leg.
With a muffled sound of "peng," Su Xing kicked the giant bronze axe that the Minotaur used to block. A huge counter-shock force erupted. He was actually shaken back more than ten meters, and this Minotaur didn't feel good either. With just this kick, it slipped and fell to the ground. The eight-meter-tall body landed with a crash, and the ground of the entire room was trembling.
While Su Xing was still retreating, his eyes couldn't stop being surprised.
That giant bronze axe actually blocked his blow? Only cracks appeared on the axe face?
Not only did it not pierce, it didn't even collapse. The defense of this thing was simply exaggeratedly strong!
What is this concept? As long as it is subject to the "Pifu" title effect, refined steel armor is almost the same as tofu in front of him, and the alloy fragments brought from Gaia, at least five centimeters thick, Su Xing can even pierce them lightly with one finger. This is a test he did specifically after obtaining the "Pifu" title!
The kick just now was the "Return Tail" in the Tiger Demon Skill. This is a move. After condensing Dan Jin, it erupted. At the very least, it was an explosive force of over 150 tons. As a result, the bronze axe actually withstood this blow!?
But didn't expect, the giant skull was trembling slightly to a degree invisible to the naked eye.
!
(I f*ck! What kind of monster is this! This bronze axe is a fantasy weapon! The famous Punishment Axe! Just such an ordinary kick actually kicked it to crack!?)
The skull is also a commander. It is actually the commander of the Library District. It has all the memories and knowledge before becoming a Chaos monster, so it is the one who likes fighting the least among all commanders. Although its appearance is terrifying, it actually gets along best with humans, because it is very, very afraid of death.
Not to mention the problem of being afraid of death, it has lived for nearly a thousand years and is extremely knowledgeable. For example, it knows that this Minotaur and the bronze axe it holds are not ordinary.
The Minotaur is the commander of the Arena District, a man-made Chaos monster, a masterpiece of the Dark Archmage, using Chaos pollution and extraordinary knowledge, and has a very perfect summoning ritual to achieve a fantasy creature, carrying the name of half a Minotaur, and then equipped with this blood clan holy weapon Punishment Axe, making the Minotaur's combat power the strongest under the three giants. It's just that under the order of the Dark Archmage, the Minotaur usually wanders in the arena and doesn't patrol around.
At this time, Su Xing had landed, and the Minotaur seemed to be crazy, roaring and reaching out to lift the ground rock and throw it at Su Xing.
And Su Xing didn't care at all, just turned his eyes to the skull, and between flashes of his figure, he came under the skull.
Because the speed was too fast, the skull only had time to see a residual image. The next second, Su Xing had jumped into the air and stood in front of it. With a flash of white light in his hand, a jade-like big knife appeared in his hand. He saw white light like a silk ribbon slashing horizontally. The dozen or so magic defense techniques laid out by the skull in advance were like paper, and didn't have any blocking effect at all.
From Su Xing flashing, jumping, to the big knife slashing horizontally, it didn't even take a second. Then, the skull's consciousness suddenly flashed through its past as a human extraordinary. At that time, ah, its great-grandmother liked to cook red vegetable soup for it the most...
"I know the layout rules of the surface of the Graveyard District!!"
Without a thousandth of a second of hesitation, some instinct made the skull roar loudly, and then the white blade light solidified a few millimeters beside its eye socket. The pitch-black eye socket seemed to be trembling violently.
Su Xing fell from mid-air without a word, and looked at the skull with a very calm gaze.
The skull's great-grandmother, ah, liked the most...
"I dare not! I absolutely will not run! Absolutely!!" The skull roared loudly.
Su Xing nodded silently, then looked back at the Minotaur.
Just in the blink of an eye, the Minotaur had expanded another circle, about ten meters tall, and the bronze axe had also grown larger. At the same time, the cracks on the axe head began to heal.
"Roar!"
The Minotaur's eyes were blood-red, and it raised the bronze axe and rushed toward Su Xing again, roaring!
At the same time, Su Xing's Heart Lake state sensed two other ripples, and these two ripples were extremely fast and heavy.
Two more commander-level monsters have come!!
