Chapter 258 Combat power enhancement and civilization relics
Let Guo Jiuri interact with the corpse of the three-eyed monster,
He dug out the eye-like crystal nucleus from the forehead of the three-eyed monster.

It is a hard and round spar with a diameter of about two centimeters. It is crystal clear and blood-red in color. The blood cannot leave traces on it, and the inside is as intoxicating as if it contains blood mist.

It seems that this spar is the so-called energy crystal nucleus.

strengthen!

[This energy can strengthen 80 points of combat power, please freely allocate it to physical strength or energy strength. 】

"Good guy, 80 combat power? It's more than half of the soul energy from last time."

Don't look at the low combat power of 80.

Don't forget that the protagonist Guo Jiuri's physical strength is less than 100!This 80 combat power can directly double his physique!
Moreover, 80 combat power is equivalent to 8 meritorious service. Just killing such a weak monster can increase the combat power by 80. Where can I find such a lucrative job?If Zhou Ze was there, he would definitely chase and kill monsters with energy crystal nuclei in their heads!

"It's a pity, I should have fought hard just now and left the other two three-eyed monsters behind."

Herbivorous creatures do not have this blood crystal nucleus in their heads. It seems that this thing may only be found in the heads of carnivores. I don’t know if there are in the heads of the scale monsters and multi-tailed pythons before.

Choose to absorb crystal nuclei to strengthen Guo Jiuri's physical strength.

Energy intensity doesn't matter for the time being, the key is physical strength. Guo Jiuri's physical strength is too weak. He can't do many operations. He can't even hold the gun steady, and he can't even shoot the gun accurately. What's the point of playing?

In the game screen, the crystal nucleus instantly melted, and the hard spar melted into his palm like a puddle of water, and penetrated into his skin.

"En? What's the situation... the body is so hot, it feels like it's full of strength..."

Guo Jiuri took a few steps back in astonishment, and found that his physical strength was almost doubled compared to before.

Zhou Ze explained to him in a whisper that as long as he can get this kind of crystal nucleus, the Wheel of Fortune can help him improve his strength quickly.

For a while, Guo Jiuri regained his spirits!
He used to walk around those monsters, hoping to avoid them all, but now he was full of fighting spirit, wishing to rush up and chase the two three-eyed monsters back and kill them.

Along the way, Guo Jiuri started hunting monsters frantically.

In the past, he only focused on driving away the monsters that attacked him, but now he would kill as much as he could, and only tried to drive them away if he couldn't beat them.

This is a bit similar to traditional games... Fight monsters and upgrade!Killing monsters can really strengthen oneself.

After five or six hours of travel, just absorbing the crystal core has increased his basic combat power by nearly four hundred!It can be said that Zhou Ze met the protagonist with the fastest growing strength. He was very lucky to encounter such an environment where energy crystal nuclei can be obtained everywhere.

No wonder the protagonist is so weak at the beginning of the game. It turns out that the growth brought by the environment is extremely high.

Zhou Zedu was very envious of the crystal nuclei he got in his hands. It would be great if he could get a batch of crystal nuclei himself. He could easily increase his physical strength and energy strength. How could he need to practice?

In just half a day, Guo Jiuri's physical strength was higher than that of Zhou Ze's, with nearly [-] fighting strength.

Of course, this is mainly because Zhou Ze has allocated all the combat power of the crystal nucleus to his body strength. The energy strength is still very low, and the overall combat power is only in the early [-]s, which is still not very strong.

With the improvement of Guo Jiuri's close combat ability, the effect of firearms on him gradually diminished.

Zhou Ze spent another 30 meritorious service to endow him with the saber sacred weapon.

Anyway, he didn't have to fear the crazy curse of this saber when he was alone in the tropical rainforest.

It's like snowballing.

When the sun set on the second day, Guo Jiuri's combat power was close to two thousand.

The speed at which this combat power increases is astonishing... Zhou Ze is more and more excited, and wants to spend 300 meritorious deeds to go in and get some more crystal cores, so as to strengthen his physical strength.

In reality, about three or four hours passed.

After uninterrupted consumption of krypton gold, various endowments and borrowings, Zhou Ze's more than 200 meritorious deeds have also been consumed by almost half.

Do another wave of bounties.

Open the bounty game and send Krys and Guda to the three-star mission of the plague of pythons.

【3星赏金游戏：巨蟒狂灾（最高获得800功勋）（剩余游玩时间3天21小时12分11秒）】

[Do you want to send the game characters 'Ash Judge Guda' and 'Kleis Kahn' to execute the 3-star bounty game 'Python Calamity'? 】

[The match between this character and the game is 99%, and there is a high probability of reaching a high score to pass the level, and the probability of failure is 1%. 】

Well, the chances of success for the two characters are really high.

Even if he can only get less than 100 points of evaluation, this wave can still get at least 500 meritorious service, plus the remaining meritorious service from before is enough for Zhou Ze to conscript himself into "Endless World" twice.

Dispatch two game characters.

Zhou Ze also found a bounty task for himself.

【3星+赏金游戏：邪教余党（最高获得1100功勋）（剩余游玩时间3天21小时12分11秒）】

[Do you want to send the game character 'Mysterious Knight' to execute the 3-star + bounty game 'Cult Remnant Party'? 】

[The match between this character and the game is 99%, and there is a high probability of reaching a high score to pass the level, and the probability of failure is 1%. 】

"The remnants of the cult? Are they the cultists who believe in Cthulhu?"

Cthulhu was exiled from the real world by him, and he didn't expect that the cult has not completely collapsed and dispersed. Could it be that these cultists are still thinking about how to bring the god they believe in back to this world from exile?

If these guys are really working towards this, it is really dangerous and needs to be resolved.

Zhou Ze accepted the bounty task without hesitation.

As soon as he turned his gaze, he came to a dark and damp mountain cave.

The next step is to fight with the cultists lurking here, and get rid of all the cultists whose spirits are polluted.

Before Zhou Ze could catch his breath, he was teleported to another scene, and was surrounded by a large group of cultists who were doing weird sacrificial activities. Both sides were stunned, and then the battle was about to break out.

Tossed and moved a full eight scenes.

Zhou Ze's spiritual power stored in the Ring of Heaven was almost exhausted, and he finally heard the notification sound of clearing the game.

[Time rating: 115 points. (Like a god)]

[820 meritorious service will be issued as a reward! 】

"It's more deadly than imagined... I almost thought it was going to be cold."

Zhou Ze lay flat on the sofa, panting heavily, and threw away blood stains and a lot of messy and dirty clothes on his body. The sorcery of these cultists is really unpredictable.

It seems that in the future, 3-star + missions can't be randomly accepted.

Fortunately, there are many meritorious deeds... This is enough to comfort his wounded heart.

Turn your attention back to the game strategy of "Endless World".

The second night still passed quietly without any waves.

On the third day of exploring this tropical rainforest, Guo Jiuri has gradually mastered some survival rules, try to avoid those trees that look tall and dense, and try to stay away from the soft and dry ground. Most likely a predator ambush.

The tree-like plants that grow in this world are very strange. They seem to be of the same species in a row. The body of the tree is brownish-red, the bark is as thick and hard as scales, and the branches are dark green. Leaves grow, but gradually flatten... It seems to use flat branches for photosynthesis?
Under the soft soil covered with all kinds of fluorescent plants, it is very likely that there is a huge mouth hidden, and the branches above the head that are sparsely sprinkled with sunlight are very likely to pounce on a group of monsters at any time.

Hunt all kinds of monsters along the way.

There are canine-like monsters covered in spikes, human-faced spiders with fangs and fangs, and two-headed leopards with slightly rotten bodies...

When he arrived at the stone platform, Guo Jiuri's physical strength was close to 3000, and his overall combat power was more than [-], which was almost the same as the initial state of Ash Judge Guda before he was strengthened.

"finally reached."

The short end of the rainforest is this stone platform.

The surrounding area of ​​the platform seemed to have been artificially emptied of trees, and even the uneven terrain was filled in. The ground was covered with off-white stones of unknown material, which looked like granite, but were smooth and smooth, more like marble.

These stones are like floor tiles, covering the field of vision, but without the slightest sense of connection.

"It's very flat and strong, and the alloy dagger can't even scratch it."

Guo Jiuri squatted down and tried to scratch the smooth stone brick floor with the saber, but the stone surface was still smooth and translucent, without leaving any white marks. You must know that the sharpness and firmness of the saber saber can cut through steel.

Is this hardness comparable to a diamond?
If it was replaced by ordinary granite or marble, at least a shallow mark should be drawn this time.

This stone platform has a diameter of at least three or four kilometers, and a huge stone pillar reaching the sky is erected at each corner, which is obviously a man-made building.

Perhaps because the stone platform is too conspicuous, there are no herbivores or carnivores here, and it is clean, even the dust and stains cannot be seen, making one wonder if there is someone who is responsible for cleaning it every day.

"Is this a relic of civilization?"

Zhou Ze looked at the flat stone square through the screen, and turned his attention to the nearest celestial pig.

Let Guo Jiuri walk to the left along the edge of the gray and white stone platform, which is the closest to one of the stone pillars, less than half a kilometer away.

Even if it is 500 meters away, it feels like it is standing directly under the stone pillar. After all, the stone pillar itself has a diameter of nearly 80 meters, and its height goes straight up to the sky. I don't know if it is nearly a thousand meters or thousands of meters high.

Looking up at this sky-reaching stone pillar of unknown height, both Guo Jiuri and Zhou Ze were filled with shock, as if they were ants standing in front of a magnificent palace, how insignificant.

When he was close to less than a hundred meters away from the stone pillar, Guo Jiuri froze on the spot, his eyes widened, as if he had seen something unbelievable.

The shallow concave-convex lines are engraved on the stone pillars, which are... monster murals, densely carved murals!

The lines depict grotesque monsters, which are lifelike and ferocious, eating and killing each other, but they all climb up along the uneven gray and white stone walls.

Looking up at a glance, there are endless monsters climbing on the sky-reaching stone wall.

The monster carvings are crowded on the surface of the stone wall, and you can only distinguish the appearance of these crowded monsters if you look closely.

The lifelike monster carvings are as if they were printed on them by living creatures. They are more vivid than the top carving masters on the earth. If you look carefully, you will find that among the dense monster lines, there is not a single monster that looks like this. Repeated.

"It's really a huge building. I don't know how much thought and time the civilization of this world spent building this stone pillar."

Zhou Ze couldn't help muttering.

If this stone pillar was built with countless manpower, material resources and decades of time like the pyramid, then it means that the civilization of this ruin is not necessarily stronger than that of the earth, but if it is just a routine operation completed in just a few years... then , its cultural heritage is hard to estimate.

These stone pillars and the floor are obviously made of the same material, they are smooth off-white, without a trace of dust and dirt attached, they are as clean as new.

From the outside, you can't even tell how many years this platform ruins have gone through.

Guo Jiuri didn't dare to get too close to the stone pillars, and stopped when he was ten meters away. These stone pillars looked weird enough, and he was afraid that approaching rashly would cause unnecessary trouble.

"Monsters are engraved on the stone pillars. Does this mean that the civilization of this world worships monsters? Or hates these monsters..."

"The monsters engraved on it are so ferocious and brutal, and they are fighting each other and scrambling to climb up... From this point of view, the attitude of this civilization towards monsters should be one of fear and hatred, right?"

"However, the stone pillar murals built by this civilization may also be these worshiping monsters."

"This stone pillar may be like something like an ancient Chinese totem. Some bears, wolves, dragons, plants, etc. are regarded as the patron saints of the tribe, and they acted out of awe and worship."

This guess is quite reasonable.

Although the monsters depicted on the stone pillars are ferocious, didn't human civilization have a period of worshiping those ferocious beasts?Carve totems, pray for protection, and yearn for the mighty power of these beasts.

"There is also a possibility that the stone pillars built by civilization here are simply recording certain historical events, or they are simply used as metaphors for certain things behind the monsters."

"Don't you think it's strange that these monsters are scrambling to climb up? Is there something at the top of the stone pillar that attracts them?"

As for what the top of the stone pillar looks like.

It is impossible to know unless the goblin card is lent to Guo Jiuri and asked him to go up and take a look.

No matter from a very far distance or standing at the foot of the stone pillar, looking up, you can only see the stone pillar piercing straight into the clouds and mist.

The stone pillar with a diameter of nearly [-] meters means that there may be a platform of nearly [-] meters at the top, and it is impossible to make a valuable guess without seeing the whole picture.

For the time being, give up and continue to explore this stone pillar.

The entire huge platform paved with gray bricks is generally circular, with a diameter of more than three kilometers. It is about the size of a dozen football fields combined. It is extremely flat, and it is easy to see the other side.

"Except for the four stone pillars, there seems to be nothing on this platform."

Zhou Ze frowned and said that he wanted to explore the ruins of civilization. Is there any mechanism hidden somewhere that can lead to the bottom of the platform?Like a dungeon?
