Chapter 186
In the barren mountains of the Shenmu Empire, there grow countless grasses.
Apart from the clematis, no other plants can be seen in the Desolate Mountains.
Rosen was dumbfounded when he saw the towering grass, which was tens of thousands of miles tall and a single blade of grass was enough to block out the sun.
These basils grow extremely fast, and their roots are rooted in the giant mountains of the barren mountains.
There is a Tongtian grass on every mountain, and the top of the Tongtian grass is like a small world.
Countless giant birds and beasts live in the upper and middle parts of the Tongtian grass that is not covered with ash.
Rosen soared into the sky and soared ten thousand miles up. Soon he found a giant beast, the Fire Skylark.
This behemoth is not very big, with a wingspan of only a few hundred meters, but it can transform into a giant with a wingspan of tens of thousands of meters through the element of fire. When it reaches adulthood, its level is as high as Sequence 5, and there is even a high probability that it will eventually grow to Sequence 3.
The flamingos that Capac's knights and attendants ride on have the rare and extraordinary bloodline of the Fire Skylark.
Rosen did not hunt the fire lark directly, but looked at the ashes below with some vigilance.
In this area of the Desolate Mountains, only the area below ten thousand miles is covered with ashes, and above ten thousand miles there is only the Tongtian Grass with no trace of ashes visible. This means that if a god sets his eyes on this place, he can cross the void and threaten him at any time.
Of course, the world is so big, the chance of a god suddenly setting his sights on this place is no less than winning the lottery.
However, Rosen's luck is not very high now. Although the Moore family helped him recover his blood, his luck is still not at its peak. Therefore, it is definitely not wrong to be cautious, especially since he might offend the people behind the scenes by selling the Beast King Colosseum.
But he shouldn't be so unlucky, especially since he had already disguised himself when he came.
Rosen, wearing a full set of hunter's clothes, rode the Storm Thunderbird and approached the Fire Skylark.
The moment the distance was shortened to three hundred miles, the Dragon King's Wrath in sniper rifle form had already aimed at and locked onto the Fire Skylark.
Rosen sniped with one hand because he held a twin dagger in his left hand.
In this way, the attribute of the twin daggers to double the skill damage can take effect.
The time sight was locked, and the bullet fired from the future silencer appeared and hit the Fire Skylark three seconds later.
With the help of Xiaolongnu's fantasy weapon, the magic-forbidden bullet instantly hit Fire Skylark's head.
Subsequently, more Dragon Language magic bullets hit the Fire Skylark. However, the Ashes Armor Breaking skill, which doubled the damage, did not work because of the Fire Skylark's elementalization. It only caused the Fire Skylark to bear some of the true damage from the miracle characteristic.
The fire lark, suddenly attacked, instinctively wanted to find the enemy that attacked it.
However, at this time, Rosen had already used the Void Flicker to hide in the blind spot of Fire Skylark's perception.
Rosen's Dragon King's Wrath was as accurate as a machine gun, with hundreds of Dragon Language magic spells cast in three full minutes, and he killed the Fire Skylark with real damage. This was certainly due to the Fire Skylark's strong defense, but also because the damage was not strong enough.
Skill stacking can increase damage to the maximum extent, but skills cannot be stacked at will.
Eliminate incompatible skills, and the more skills you combine, the more spiritual energy you consume.
Rosen has already integrated all the skills that can be integrated into the Dragon King's Wrath, but he still feels it is not enough, so Sequence 5 must master several powerful attack skills that can complement each other. As for increasing the damage at the moment, he can only rely on external forces.
When he hunted the Cat God's clone, he obtained a pair of extremely rare Sequence 6 cat's eye stones.
As long as it is embedded in the Wrath of the Dragon King, it will be enough to greatly enhance his strength.
He also consulted an alchemist who was capable of inlaying, but ordinary inlaying was too wasteful.
The highest standard of perfect inlay that Rosen wanted was something that even the Shenmu Empire couldn't find an alchemist of that level.
However, under the guidance of the Queen of Wood Elf, he realized that the Kingdom of Divine Weapons in the Holy Continent would definitely satisfy him.
Moreover, it only takes a detour of tens of thousands of miles to reach the Kingdom of Divine Weapons. Now that he feels that the Dragon King's Wrath can no longer bring him an absolute damage advantage, he is already impatient to go to the Kingdom of Divine Weapons.
Two months later, the hundredth behemoth fell at the hands of Rosen.
The moment the beast died, the cross mark on the back of his hand turned scarlet again.
The surrounding space began to twist and fold, and a huge monster was transferring from other spaces. This should be the Beast King that was directly materialized from the spiritual realm into reality under the rules of the World Government.
After Rosen pulled away for a distance, a small beast king only a few meters long soon appeared a few miles ahead.
This was a white scorpion with a transparent body and wings on its back. He quickly searched for the information he had read in his mind.
"Death Scorpion..."
Rosen was slightly surprised.
As far as he knew, the Death Scorpion was an extraordinary life form with extremely fast speed, super stealth ability, and terrible poison. Being able to become the Beast King would definitely strengthen these abilities again. Although it was only Sequence 6, the threat level could even reach Sequence 4.
For a Beast King of this level, aren't those geniuses who hunt down a hundred giant beasts to challenge the Beast King really courting death?
Rosen thought of a possibility. Strictly speaking, he seemed to have hunted two hundred giant beasts.
Then the previous giant beast ran away without being hunted. Would it be possible that the two occurrences led to the appearance of the beast king-level death scorpion?
The Death Scorpion disappeared silently from Rosen's sight, and his sixth sense couldn't detect any trace of it.
However, after being alert for half an hour, the Death Scorpion still did not attack.
Only then did Rosen truly understand why the Death Scorpion, which was only at Sequence 6, was listed as an extremely dangerous life form in the book.
Because the Death Scorpion not only possesses all the qualities of a super assassin, it also possesses the powerful wisdom of an assassin.
The Death Scorpion must have noticed that he was not his real self but a clone of his self-portrait.
So even though there were many opportunities to launch a sneak attack on him, the Death Scorpion actually patiently refrained from launching an attack. I'm afraid that even if his real body didn't show up for ten days or half a month, the Death Scorpion could still hide nearby and lurk.
Rosen's real body hiding in the Void Gallery replaced itself with his self-portrait clone.
Less than two seconds after I appeared, a scorpion tail appeared silently and slowly approached from behind.
Rosen's perception was completely unaware of the danger behind him.
However, the self-portrait clone who was looking back in the void gallery saw the murderous intent coming from behind.
Seeing that the death scorpion's tail was about to pierce through his head, Rosen flashed in the air to distance himself.
The death scorpion disappeared in an instant and lurked again.
Rosen had a headache. It was easy for him to get rid of the Death Scorpion, but if he wanted to kill it, he had to find the Death Scorpion first before he could complete a counterattack. It seemed that he needed to spend a lot of money on bait if he wanted to succeed in hunting.
While thinking about what bait to put down, he kept flashing in the air to create distance.
However, at the moment when his flash in the void ended, the scorpion's tail, as if it had been waiting there for a long time, silently pierced through Rosen's head. At that moment, he was almost frightened to death, and just slapped the scorpion's tail instinctively.
The hunting mark of the miraculous treasure cat claw pendant fell silently on the scorpion tail of the death scorpion.
However, the next moment the Death Scorpion cut off its own tail and disappeared silently again.
Rosen pulled out the scorpion's tail that had pierced his head, and the huge life force in his body began to regenerate his flesh, blood, bones and brain. However, the invisible and colorless poison in the scorpion's tail actually began to dissolve his brain.
If he continued, he would be dead, and his only option was to be reborn in the divine territory.
But this Death Scorpion, could it possibly chase him to his divine territory?
He was so decisive that he immediately abandoned his tail after discovering that he might have done something to it. The Death Scorpion's wisdom was more terrifying than he had imagined. Even the demigod assassin was not as professional as the Death Scorpion.
Rosen chopped off the head with a backhand knife, and then a new head immediately grew on the neck.
The head in his hand dissolved into a transparent liquid and he casually sent it into the gluttony furnace in the Void Gallery.
It would be harder for the Death Scorpion to regenerate its tail than to regenerate a human head.
Therefore, the Death Scorpion did not take the opportunity to attack. Perhaps it did not expect that his head was not a fatal weakness.
While the Death Scorpion's tail had not yet regenerated, Rosen began to frantically set traps around it.
At the same time, all the vitality explodes and transforms into spiritual energy, which is then attached to the surface of the body to form a hollow sphere. Finally, the hollow sphere continues to expand, and through the technique of energy circle, a spherical space exploration with itself as the center is formed with no blind spots in all directions.
Of course, the price of doing so is the loss of mental defense.
However, the Death Scorpion's instantaneous burst damage was too strong, and it made almost no difference whether he had Sequence 6 defense or not.
A few minutes later, Rosen sensed that an alien life had entered the range of the sphere formed by his spiritual energy. However, the moment he noticed it, the Death Scorpion had appeared directly below him, extending its tail upwards.
Just as he and the Storm Thunderbird were about to be strung together like a candied haws stick, the time trap right below Rosen was activated.
At the moment when the time dust froze time, Rosen shot the death scorpion's tail.
This bullet is composed of Xiaolongnu's spiritual orb, which directly attacks the target's spirituality, and the power will also be dispersed and lurking in the target's consciousness. This is one of the methods mastered by Xiaolongnu to specifically locate ultra-high-speed enemies.
However, the next moment the Psychic Orb lost its target because the Death Scorpion marked by the Psychic Orb dissipated.
Obviously this was a clone, and the next moment a scorpion tail entered the coverage of the circle of mental energy.
The Death Scorpion first determined Rosen's perception range through its clone, and then, with its body outside the perception range, it extended its scorpion tail across a distance of several thousand meters and stabbed towards Rosen's heart.
By the time Rosen reacted, the Death Scorpion's tail was already within reach.
However, after realizing that the Psychic Orb marked only his clone, he immediately activated the skill Bullet Time of Dragon King's Wrath, which greatly enhanced his sensing ability, and he was finally able to be hit by a single shot.
But the next moment, the heart was pierced and the Death Scorpion's tail was broken off again.
However, this time it was impossible to get rid of the mark of the Psychic Orb because the Psychic Orb had entered the soul of the Death Scorpion.
Unless the Death Scorpion accurately peels off the soul, the mark of the Mind Orb cannot be dispelled in a short time.
Rosen immediately flashed into the void, distanced himself, locked onto the mark remotely and shot at the invisible death scorpion.
Both sides can now accurately stabilize each other's positions, and the process of fighting immediately advances from lurking and testing to frontal killing. However, the speed of the Death Scorpion is too fast. The bullet was 100% aimed when it was fired, but the Death Scorpion had already dodged when the bullet got close.
Rosen tried to use the time sight, but the time sight would only work if the target was in sight.
At this time, the Death Scorpion was completely invisible, and could not see anything by relying on the time sight alone. If the sight could not see the enemy, the future silencer would naturally not work.
Rosen and the Death Scorpion chased each other like this until the mark of the Mind Orb was dispelled by the Death Scorpion.
"Relying solely on the Hunter sequence, the gap between us and the Beastmaster is indeed obvious."
Rosen sighed and activated the Ash Curtain to project a picture in all directions.
The painting shows countless densely interwoven three-dimensional spider webs. This painting is aimed at assassin-type enemies with high concealment.
With Rosen as the center, the area within a radius of ten miles was instantly covered with countless spider silk.
As long as the Death Scorpion gets within a ten-mile radius, it will be immediately captured by the impenetrable spider webs around it.
Rosen lowered his head and looked at his heart, which had been stabbed by the scorpion's tail not long ago.
The poison should have melted his heart, but there was an ancient god sacrificial vessel on his heart. The scorpion's tail hit the ancient god sacrificial vessel and was bounced back. Although the poison remained, it was never able to completely dissolve his heart.
Because over the years, the ancient god's sacrificial vessels have been tempering his bloodline.
So far, one third of the blood in his body has turned golden.
Even though the blood of the ancient gods is incomplete, it can still have a powerful suppressive effect on the poison of the death scorpion. However, this poison is not simple either. It lingers in the heart and constantly fights against the blood of the ancient gods.
Rosen discovered that in this kind of confrontation, the efficiency of reviving the ancient god's bloodline was actually greatly increased.
Originally, it would take about twenty years for the ancient god's bloodline to fully awaken. If he had the help of the endless supply of poisonous death scorpions, it would only take a few years at most for his blood to turn completely golden.
Rosen had originally planned to hunt the death scorpion, but now he changed his mind and decided to capture it alive.
His nightmare shackles can be embedded with a miracle treasure to gain special effects.
After some consideration, he embedded the Time Tower into the Nightmare Shackles.
Then the nightmare shackles began to extend continuously, and finally extended to dozens of meters and spread around.
Rosen also activated the Star Emblem, and with the help of the Ancient God Sacrificial Artifact, he raised his spiritual power to Sequence 3 within 9 seconds.
This time, his spiritual perception was finally able to capture the Death Scorpion.
Rosen flashed in the air and approached the Death Scorpion. He realized that his concealment was ineffective and the enemy's teleportation speed was not inferior to his own high-speed movement. The Death Scorpion could no longer avoid the battle. Its wildness and ferocity were completely activated at this moment.
The Death Scorpion no longer insisted on ambushing and assassinating, but instead pounced on Rosen head-on to kill him.
The scorpion tail behind it was like an automatically retractable spear, and its two scorpion pincers left dense afterimages that blocked all the bullets.
But three seconds later, Rosen shot a time bullet hidden in the barrage.
The life span of the Death Scorpion disappeared by a thousand years in an instant, and at the same time, the fierce fight just now became a distant memory from a thousand years ago.
Taking advantage of the Death Scorpion's slow reaction, Rosen seized the opportunity and flashed to the side. He threw out the Nightmare Shackles that had tightly wrapped around the Death Scorpion. The power of the Time Tower also enveloped the Death Scorpion, causing time to stop.
While the Death Scorpion had not yet broken free from its confinement, Rosen released the Void Gallery and swallowed the Death Scorpion into the Void Prison.
The death scorpion, which was imprisoned by layers of constraints, began to self-destruct the moment it was freed from the stagnation of time.
Seeing that the Death Scorpion was about to commit suicide, Rosen had no choice but to use the Time Tower to stop time again.
However, it consumes a lot of energy to activate the Time Tower at full power. As long as he releases the time stagnation, the Death Scorpion will commit suicide immediately. Although this thing has extremely high combat command, it is obviously a stubborn person in other aspects and there is no possibility of taming it at all.
In desperation, Rosen could only insert the dragon tooth dagger into the body of the death scorpion.
After a stalemate of several hours, the Death Scorpion finally collapsed spiritually and lost all signs of life.
The Dragon Tooth Dagger absorbed all the blood of the Death Scorpion, and before that it had absorbed the blood of hundreds of Sequence 6 beasts. It finally completed an evolution by relying on the bloodthirsty nature of the Beast King.
[Source Dragon Tooth Dagger: Extraordinary Item]
[Level: Sequence 5]
[Attributes: Holding the Dragon Tooth Dagger, one can completely hide in the water, avoiding some of the perception abilities of Sequence 3]
[Source Characteristics: Beast King is bloodthirsty, sharp, and has a water clone]
The source quality characteristics were only strengthened as a whole, but the properties underwent a qualitative transformation.
Originally, it could only avoid the perception of those below Sequence 3, but now even some Sequence 3 who were not good at perception could not detect this concealment.
Even though the Dragon Tooth Dagger is only Sequence 5, its value is even higher than some Sequence 3 extraordinary items.
Rosen put away the dragon tooth dagger and took out a trophy light ball from the scavenging space.
Since only this one item dropped, there is a high probability that it is an origin equipment.
Sure enough, after crushing it, a belt appeared in his hand.
[Source Essence Death Belt: Extraordinary Item]
[Level: Sequence 6]
[Attributes: Increases basic damage by 40%, can generate an immortal scorpion tail behind to condense life poison]
[Source Quality 1: Death Perception - Can sense the breath of death left after a killing]
[Source Quality Attribute 2: Super Speed - Overall basic speed increased fourfold]
[Source Quality 3: Breath Blockage - Ignore perception effects below Sequence 3]
[Source Quality 4: Death Harvest - Hunting Beast Kings can improve the quality and gain new source quality characteristics]
[Equipment Requirements: Hunter Sequence 6]
After looking at the properties, Rosen discovered one thing: the Death Belt and the Dragon Tooth Dagger both have the ability to evolve.
One of them evolves by sucking blood, and the other one hunts the beast king.
Rosen quickly refined this source equipment. Strictly speaking, the value of this source equipment is even greater than the Dragon Tooth Dagger.
The value of basic damage is there, and he tried the back of the belt, which could extend a freely retractable scorpion tail. This scorpion tail is exactly the same as the scorpion tail of the Death Scorpion, and both have the effects of regeneration, retraction, defense breaking and life corruption.
Especially the life poison, after being injected into the heart, it can stimulate the ancient god's bloodline and accelerate recovery.
And if someone attacks him from behind again in the future, he will have to see if he can withstand the sneak attack from the Immortal Scorpion Tail.
Rosen continued to try out several characteristics. The perception of death can be combined with the sixth sense. He can clearly feel the breath of death on his body, and can judge what kind of life he has hunted in the past few days through these breaths of death.
It could be as accurate as the day, minute and second, and at the same time, these breaths of death seemed to him like torches in the darkness.
No wonder, his concealment was useless in front of the Death Scorpion.
Rosen continued to sense the changes brought about by the speed, and he immediately realized that this was the most terrifying characteristic of the Death Scorpion.
Because not only the basic speed of movement and attack speed increased fourfold, but also the reaction speed and thinking speed increased fourfold. This is definitely not a power that a normal Death Scorpion can master. If nothing unexpected happens, this is the power that the Death Scorpion obtains as the Beast King.
The remaining breath is blocked, which is like the relationship between spear and shield with the perception of death.
If he already had this ability, it would not be easy for the Death Scorpion to find his trace.
Rosen looked at the map, locked onto the route to the Divine Weapon Kingdom and began to move forward.
On the way, he familiarized himself with his stronger strength and finally arrived at the Kingdom of Divine Weapons after half a month.
…
Before Rosen even got close to the Divine Weapon Kingdom, he could already see the entire picture of the Divine Weapon Kingdom.
The huge volcano with a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles is looming in the cover of billowing smoke. At the foot of the volcano is a lava river surrounding the volcano. The lava flowing continuously from the crater has painted the entire volcano golden red.
Rosen entered the Divine Weapon Kingdom from the air and kept approaching the crater.
There is only one city in the entire Divine Weapon Kingdom, and that is the Divine Weapon Sky City located on the crater.
Normally, people would travel to and from that city through teleportation arrays from various countries. However, the Shenmu Empire was still in a closed state and the teleportation array could not be used. He could only climb the mountain on his own and try to reach the top of the mountain across 80,000 to 90,000 miles.
This mountain climbing trip is enough to make people clearly realize how insignificant humans are in the face of nature.
Unless it is Sequence 0, it is hard to imagine how to fight such a volcano?
During the climbing process, Rosen picked up many special and extraordinary materials from the magma.
The treasure hunting ability of Miracle Pocket can easily locate countless ownerless extraordinary materials here.
It is no wonder that the Divine Weapon Kingdom has become a holy land for scientists in the Shenmu Continent.
This is not an empire simply because it is not the turn of a titled demigod to rule here.
If we really compare combat power, I'm afraid the Divine Weapon Kingdom is far superior to the Divine Wood Empire.
Not long after the Storm Thunderbird climbed the mountain, Rosen had already discovered a shaky airship in the billowing black smoke.
It looked like it was only at Sequence 6, and was being chased by some stone men with black smoke coming out of their bodies and made of lava. These stone men kept throwing lava balls to attack the airship, and if nothing unexpected happened, the airship would soon crash.
Rosen drew out the Dragon King's Wrath, and the dragon language magic crushing technique killed these stone men almost one by one.
The knight driving the airship realized that he was rescued, and he ran even faster without stopping.
"People's hearts are no longer the same as they used to be."
Rosen shook his head. He didn't care about thanks, he just wanted to find a local to get some information.
I didn't expect that the person would just run away. This is a bit unkind.
Rosen was just about to continue on his journey when his death perception suddenly detected the direction in which the airship had just escaped. He could smell the breath of human death coming from about several thousand meters away. It was obvious that they had encountered new danger not long after escaping, but this time no one saved them.
He followed the breath of death and got closer, and through the billowing black smoke he saw a stone man that was a thousand meters tall.
