Chapter 214: Resurrection

Through the investigation of the underground caves.

Yu Ke and Fang Xuanhe further verified the authenticity of the phantom omen.

There is no doubt that part of the divine power retained in the Zhongshan statue is not a coincidence. It is intended to warn those who come after it, hoping to reduce the negative impact of the upcoming disaster as much as possible.

In addition, the appearance of the soul-eating insect and its body attracted Fang Xuanhe's attention, and he asked many times on the way back to the surface.

"I discovered the soul-eating insects after killing the two-headed dragon. They seem to be able to parasitize in the bodies of high-level ferocious beasts, plunder their souls after their death, and then send them back to their original bodies. Judging from the many bodies of ferocious beasts in the cave, this Part of the soul energy has other uses.”

Caressing the forehead of Feng Chi, who was squatting on the fence, Yu Ke recalled the situation at that time without hiding anything.

Although checking for omissions and filling in the gaps can allow Yu Ke to see the characteristics of things, it can only go so far. It is difficult for him to think about deeper things.

On the other hand, Fang Xuanhe is worthy of the name of Heavenly Master. As a veteran strong man, his strength and knowledge are consistent.

In just one night, he figured out the origin of the idol, and then deduced the reason why it appeared in the Mirror Lake Forest. The detection of the soul-eating insect's body was probably the key factor, which fully demonstrated his ability.

"It's nothing more than a method of resurrecting souls by borrowing corpses. If nothing else, the soul-eating insect's main purpose is to collect souls, transform them and inject them into the beast's corpse to create servants that are completely controlled by it."

Fang Xuanhe made a judgment on the purpose of the soul-eating insect's behavior, and his words soon reminded Yu Ke of Zhong Ling's dirty blood.

If the complete destruction of God Zhongshan was caused by the Soul-Eating Insect itself, then the filthy blood mist mixed with divine power that appeared at the junction must also be caused by the Soul-Eating Insect itself.

Yes, it’s no wonder that the trait of detecting leaks and filling gaps calls those blood mist Zhong Ling Dirty Blood!

"what's on your mind?"

Noticing that Yu Ke was deep in thought, Fang Xuanhe couldn't help but ask.

Regarding the fall of God Zhongshan, Yu Ke did not intend to hide it and put forward all his conjectures.

He believed that the Soul-Eating Insects were most likely forming an "army" in the border area. He had personally seen the crazy behavior of those ferocious beasts after ingesting the dirty blood of the Bell Spirit. Their strong dependence would make them rely on the blood mist that could be supplied to them. There is no resistance to its existence.

This state is somewhat like the control of drug traffickers over poisonous insects, with the latter almost allowing the former to slaughter them at will!

"I agree with your view. There are still a few days left before the meteor shower. God Zhongshan suddenly fell. The Soul-Eating Insect itself started to act at this time. It is obvious that it wants to take advantage of the opportunity. It seems that it is more powerful than the upcoming disaster. We know."

After listening to Yu Ke's speculation, Fang Xuanhe nodded in agreement, and then said,

"It's just that we may not be able to send more manpower into the junction now. After all, it is the intersection of Jinghu Forest and the Mountain Area. There are too many high-level ferocious beasts affected by the blood mist. It is not that easy to clean them up."

After all, the area where Zhong Ling's dirty blood appears is just a border area, which is very far away from the city. Compared with the large-scale disaster that will break out in five days, its importance must be ranked lower, even if it is highly likely to be related to the disaster. Method.

The operation of the disaster prevention plan requires too much manpower and material resources, and it is impossible for the Disaster Prevention Bureau to specially allocate a group of people to the junction area.

"Leave this matter to me for the time being. I will find a way to track down the situation over there in the next few days."

Yu Ke knew very well that the Disaster Prevention Bureau was short of manpower, so he took the initiative to accept this task after a brief thought.

On the one hand, the banyan tree area at the junction belongs to the Jinghu Forest and involves disasters. Investigating such incidents can increase the experience of the two professions of forest ranger hunter and disaster chaser, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone.

On the other hand, Yu Ke was quite concerned about the Soul-eating Insect's attempt to corrode the Zhongshan Divine Queen.

Others don't need to care about the situation in the border area. After all, it's quite a distance away, and Yu Ke's home is here, and he is also an ally of the forest spirit, so he is naturally more concerned about the border area.

"On the night when the meteor shower appears, I hope you can come to the mountain area. There is a tide of beasts in the illusion created by Zhongshan God. I am worried that there will be problems with the seal that day."

The fog incident some time ago affected the ground veins in the mountainous area, which in turn affected the stability of the sealing formation.

That is to say, Fang Xuanhe was at the scene and solved the problem as soon as he noticed it, and then managed to stabilize the situation.

However, this is only a temporary measure after all. Without the Bronze Cauldron, the sealing formation would be unable to completely suppress the beast tide. God Zhongshan’s warning in the illusion made Fang Xuanhe worry that the outbreak of disaster would lead to an uprising of the beast tide, but it was difficult for him to take it into account during the suppression process. outside world.

At this time, other strong people need to be stationed in the camp to prevent external dangers from affecting the interior of the ruins and creating a vicious cycle.

Yu Ke nodded to express his understanding.

The relics of the sealed beast tide cannot be lost, and he also does not want the place where he lives to become the birthplace of disaster.

It's a pity that neither Yu Ke nor the exploration team arranged by the Disaster Prevention Bureau in the mountain area have been able to find any information that may involve the hiding place of the bronze tripod so far.

"It's really strange, where else can the bronze tripod go? If it had been taken away by a vicious beast or some other entity, the remains of the sealing beast tide should have been destroyed long ago, but the fact is that the seal has not been damaged in any substantial way. Destroyed, the bronze tripod disappeared."

Whether it is the murals in the underground palace of the temple, the remains of the sealed birdman or the message left by the Zhongshan God, all of them prove the importance of the bronze tripod in suppressing disasters.

It happened that this most central object disappeared inexplicably, which really caused people a headache.

It can't be that this thing has grown legs and run away by itself, right?

The two chatted while boarding the transport plane and headed for the location of the black copper vein.

On the way, Fang Xuanhe explained his plan to Yu Ke.

If it is confirmed that the bronze pillars in the black copper vein do have a good effect on suppressing disasters.

Then he will copy the seal array today, and then bring all the bronze pillars and the black copper ore that can be collected in the cave back to the mountains, and try to arrange them in the ruins.

Yu Ke, who was holding the black copper jade ring, had no objection to Fang Xuanhe's decision. He had already got the biggest benefit. He had no way to deal with the remaining black copper ores. Instead, he let the official government take over to maximize their value.

"Of course, the black copper vein was discovered by you, and the due reward cannot be less. You can make any request for what you want. As long as it is not difficult to achieve, I can make the decision."

Although Yu Ke did not take the initiative to ask for a reward, Fang Xuanhe knew very well that if the black copper stone could really suppress the disaster, the price of the black copper vein in the border area would be immeasurable.

As the discoverer of the mineral vein, Yu Ke can completely conceal this matter with his ability. It is not difficult for him to become the top rich man in the Beijing-Hangzhou area by selling black copper ore through secret channels.

It is precisely because of this that even if Yu Ke does not say it, Fang Xuanhe will give him a big enough reward.

"Reward, there is something that has troubled me for a while. If you have a way to solve it, it would be great."

Yu Ke took out the Qingming mask and the dragon-headed zombie's soul bead from the imprint space and handed them to Fang Xuanhe.

Previously, he tried to recast them together with the gluttonous goat horn hammer, but failed. Yu Ke wanted to try again.
