A million ways to survive in the dungeon

"Do you also want to destroy this tranquility that my son loves?!"

Ice Phoenix shouted loudly and spread its wings fiercely.

The violent roar of the wind stretched the entire rift valley open.

"Come, my puppets, be my strength!"

Facing Zheng Qian, who has changed drastically, Binghuang needs to take things seriously.

Use the puppets in the ice valley to restore your status, improve your attributes, and then use your numerical advantage to overwhelm your opponents.

This is why Ice Phoenix is ​​invincible on the third floor of this dungeon.

But it's a pity...

Zheng Qian didn't stop it, he even just stood there and watched it silently.

A full ten seconds.

Not a single ice golem entered the vicinity of the ice nest.

"Is it weird?" Zheng Qian tilted his head and said jokingly.

Only then did Binghuang realize that something was wrong.

"you?"

"What do you think?"

Zheng Qian smiled and said: "The Flesh and Bone God Substitute is indeed a very powerful skill, but unlike ordinary summoning techniques, the ice puppets created by the Flesh and Bone God Substitute have real life.

Therefore, controlling these ice puppets requires a huge amount of mental energy. Even if you can control a large number of ice puppets, you can only give some simple instructions.

More, it depends on the puppets' own judgment, not to mention sensing whether the puppets have been attacked.

To sense these ice golems requires extremely strong perception.

There are at least 300,000 ice puppets in this ice valley. If you really want to sense them, your perception attribute must exceed 3 million.

And obviously, even Leviathan cannot have such high perception, so you can't possibly notice that I killed these ice puppets! "

Zheng Qian's words made Binghuang choke.

It never expected that this little dragon would actually see through the biggest shortcoming of the flesh-and-blood puppet: the requirements for perception attributes are too high. Once too many are produced, the user will not be able to sense the status of the puppet.

And he actually did it so brilliantly, using this only flaw to kill all the hundreds of thousands of ice puppet monsters in the entire Ice Valley.

"To be honest, I almost died several times in the past nine days."

Zheng Qian pointed to the hundreds of scars on his body.

Although upgrades and skills can restore status, only evolution can erase scars.

These scars were all from countless battles with death in the past nine days.

It is a symbol of Zheng Qian's struggle for life.

"Your ice puppets are indeed very strong. You need less experience to kill them than the original version, and their strength is stronger than the original version. With the skill of flesh and blood god substitution, you are indeed qualified to dominate the third floor.

But you are too obsessed with the past. I once had a similar experience to you, and I also had relatives die in front of me.

Babylon told me your story, your child was truly a tragedy.

But the reason why I can win you is because my eyes are always focused on the front.

I am made of the flesh and blood of my relatives, and you are bound by your relatives! "

"Babylon?!"

Hearing this name, Ice Phoenix's body trembled violently.

It looked at Zheng Qian in disbelief, its frightened eyes gradually becoming violent: "That old immortal?!"

The ice phoenix flaps its wings and brings up an unimaginable hurricane.

But this level of wind and waves is just like a spring breeze for Zheng Qian, who already has the strongest wind attribute immunity.

The magic energy all over its body converged on its wings, and the ice-like wings emitted a dazzling seven-color light: "You are all going to die, and the world is going to freeze at this moment!"

When Zheng Qian saw this, his expression became serious.

He knew that the next blow would be the full force of the Ice Phoenix.

Zheng Qian, on the other hand, must respond with the strongest blow.

As the brilliance of its wings bloomed to its limit, the ice phoenix moved!

[Sealed between Heaven and Earth]

He flapped his wings fiercely, and unimaginable magic spurted out from them.

This cold wave is already close to absolute zero.

Wherever it goes, everything freezes.

Even the air was solidified.

At this moment, Zheng Qian, who had already used super-speed regeneration to return to full state, also used the strongest blow in his life.

[Knowing blow* Taixu Sky Pierces]

boom!

It was like a star being ejected.

The unimaginable high temperature melted the world that should have been frozen.

On one side, the entire space is freezing.

On one side, the glaciers that have not melted for thousands of years are melting.

The cold air collided with the fire, erupting into an unimaginable dazzling light.

Zheng Qian and Ice Phoenix, like line drawings, faded in this first ray of light that was like the creation of the world in a myth.

…

Once upon a time, when the underground city was first established, there was chaos.

The demonic beasts captured during the Hades era carried out brutal killings in order to carve up the territory of only the fifth floor.

Blood and fire almost covered the entire dungeon.

In the midst of these tens of millions of years of struggle, a phoenix was born.

It single-handedly quelled an entire layer of struggle.

In this underground city with only five floors, an area of ​​peace has been opened up.

Here, there used to be birds singing and flowers fragrant.

Warmth spreads throughout the earth.

The phoenix uses its ability to achieve nirvana. Every once in a while, it absorbs the hatred in the world, burns itself in the fire, and then is reborn from the fire, taking the hatred away from this pure land.

One day, Phoenix gave birth to a child.

The children fulfill their mother's duties and together they manage this paradise on the third floor of the underground city.

Even Babylon, one of the final bosses, came to the third floor to enjoy this quiet life.

However, what Phoenix mother and son don't know is that hatred and greed cannot be completely eradicated.

When you try to erase hatred, you become the object of hatred in the world.

Dungeon Master: Leviathan does not allow the monsters in the dungeon to be so comfortable.

Warcraft must look like Warcraft, constantly undergoing a cycle of evolution and elimination in the midst of killing.

It came to the third floor and killed Phoenix's child.

He also used his skill [Tyrant] to take away the intelligence of all three-level monsters, causing them to completely lose their minds and become machines that only knew how to kill.

Phoenix still remembers what the child said to him before he died.

[How great would it be if this peace could be maintained forever? How great would it be if we could cut off the curse of this underground city? 】

Babylon, as the master of the dungeon like Leviathan, why did you let Leviathan destroy everything I worked hard to manage on the third floor?

Phoenix asked this way back then.

And Babylon’s answer was only one sentence: I tried my best.

…

"Babylon told me your story."

Facing the dying Ice Phoenix, Zheng Qian's furious eyes gradually dissolved, revealing the deepest compassion.

HP：0/24349

As a strong person, even if his HP is reduced to zero, he can still survive for a few minutes as long as his body is intact.

Its body had begun to fall apart.

On its deathbed, it focused its gaze on Zheng Qian.

"I... just want to be like before... everyone can coexist peacefully... everyone can stay with me and my children... there will be no more killings in this world..."

"But what you did was more cruel than killing."

"I... don't want... to make this world what Leviathan wants. I just want to protect the peace on the third floor... and cut off the curse that the monsters were born in... the dungeon..."

"But what you did was what Leviathan wanted most. You yourself became the monster that Leviathan wanted."

Ice Phoenix closed her eyes.

It's not dead yet, it just doesn't want to reveal its true feelings at the last moment.

Losers are not qualified to talk about dreams and wishes.

Looking at the Ice Phoenix, Zheng Qian fell into deep thought.

Until the end, when Ice Phoenix died, Zheng Qian didn't say another word.

I will cut off this curse for you.

Zheng Qian couldn't say this.

Because it's simply unrealistic.

A dungeon is a dungeon. Even if you can kill Leviathan in the future and leave the dungeon, another monster will be born in the dungeon to take its place.

What's more, Zheng Qian never thought that he was a good person.

"I'm sorry, I can't be as great as you. Big dreams will only be in vain. All I hope for is that I don't want anyone around me to leave me anymore."

Until the end, Zheng Qian finally spoke his true words.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion.

The moment he spoke these words, the unwillingness on the dead Ice Emperor's face seemed to disappear, replaced by a trace of relief.

There was a crash.

The ice phoenix's body turned into broken ice on the ground.

[Notice, the level has been upgraded, the current level is lv17. 】

[Notice, the main mission has been completed, and the 80 unlock points reward has been received. 】

The notification of truth seemed insignificant at the moment.

Zheng Qian noticed that deep in the cracks in the ice beneath his feet, there was a red wine-colored three-petaled flower.

Small, only as big as a soybean.

But it grows stubbornly in the severe cold.

As the ice phoenix died, the glaciers began to collapse, and the temperature also rose significantly.

The low temperature on the third floor is maintained by the existence of the ice phoenix.

Once the Ice Phoenix dies, the temperature will rise again.

Maybe in a few years, new green leaves will grow on this frozen world, right?

But, this is all a story for later.

Moving his vision, Zheng Qian saw an ice egg covering the north and south of Mao in a corner not far away.

Although the breath is very weak, it can last for a long time.

After confirming that Mao Nanbei was still alive, Zheng Qian finally breathed a sigh of relief.

it is finally over.

Three-level strategy: Success!

Just as Zheng Qian was about to go over and untie the ice eggs for Mao Nanbei.

Suddenly, out of the corner of his vision, he caught a glimpse of something in the broken ice of the Ice Phoenix's body.

Zheng Qian took a closer look.

I saw a crystal clear snowball emitting blue light in the center of the broken ice, probably at the chest level.

What it is?

Zheng Qian was a little curious. He walked up and picked it up and took a look. He found that it was as warm as jade and about the size of an egg.

"This is……"

"Oh? Isn't this the divine core?"

Just when Zheng Qian was confused, Babylon's voice suddenly sounded from beside him.

Zheng Qian suddenly sat down on the ground in fright.

Look back.

I saw this three-kilometer-tall giant beast unexpectedly appearing behind me.

Babylon smiled and said: "Little one, you have earned it. This is a treasure that only has a one-thousandth chance of dropping when a level 150 or above monster dies.

Although it is possible for monsters below level 150 to drop, the probability is less than one in 100 million. "

"No, your appearance is very tricky. When the hell did you come here?!"

Babylon smiled and said: "Space magic, isn't it strange?"
