Lord: Sequence Master

Chapter 174

The Volcanic City of Chiying Principality is the most prosperous city after Chiying King City.

The volcanic city is located on the only volcano in Chiying Principality, and the continuously flowing magma contains endless wealth.

Volcano City supports half of the Blazing Shadow Principality. This description is definitely not an exaggeration.

This world is boundless and huge, and the thickness of the earth's crust is not ordinary. It is naturally more difficult to erupt the magma deep underground. Usually, any active volcano will inevitably turn into a sea of ​​​​fire with a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles.

Without the strength of a demigod, there is no way to get close to the active volcanoes in this world.

The volcano in Chiying Principality is considered an extinct volcano. It is said that the island where Chiying Principality is located was formed by the eruption of this volcano in the long past, so this island is extremely rich in minerals.

The volcano city is located in the crater of the volcano. From the outside, the crater is only a few hundred miles away.

But after entering the crater, you will find that the real space inside is at least tens of thousands of miles in radius.

This is the true size of this volcano. There are two possibilities for how small it looks from the outside. It is sealed by some powerful force and causes the volcano to shrink, or the volcano naturally contains spatial attributes and shrinks on its own.

There are various theories. The world government must know the truth but has not made the results public.

The World Government's office in the Principality of Chiying has been hidden in Volcano City for 20,000 years.

For a world government, kingdoms and principalities are essentially states within states.

As long as it does not violate the laws of the world government, Chiying Principality has sufficient autonomy.

However, the World Government cannot leave it alone, so its offices scattered in various countries are secretly lurking. They are usually responsible for keeping an eye on whether these countries have violated the laws of the World Government and whether they have done anything detrimental to the fate of the human race.

Since the main focus is surveillance, the strength of the offices in various countries will naturally not be very strong.

However, Rosen could clearly feel that the person who was sizing him up at this moment was definitely a Sequence 4.

This is very abnormal. Logically speaking, Sequence 5 is a bit overmatched.

A Sequence 4 suddenly appeared, and the Grand Duke Chiying had only had this strength in the past few years.

Rosen opened his eyes and flickered to the side instantly. Facing Sequence 4, it was almost impossible to deceive him by pretending to be comatose.

The masked assassin had a look of astonishment on his face. Sitting behind the desk opposite him was a middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses and fine clothes.

This person is Gila’s boss, and to Gila’s knowledge, there is only Badu Mendy in Sequence 5.

"Being a hereditary duke is really courageous."

Badu put down the pen in his hand and applauded.

"My courage is not as good as yours. Even a hereditary duke dares to scheme."

Rosen retorted coldly.

"I'm a historian."

Badu said confidently while holding his glasses.

Rosen's expression changed slightly. The historian of the scientist branch was known as a genius killer.

Historians become more powerful as they get older, and they are least afraid of young geniuses.

Because the historian has a method that can bind the time of himself and his opponent and then reverse them together. Genius means fast cultivation speed. He is also a demigod. If a genius reverses for a hundred years, he may be weakened to Sequence 9, and the historian's strength may still remain the same. In Demigod.

That's why historians are called genius killers, but this ability is not without any weaknesses.

Geniuses' short training time is a disadvantage to historians, but geniuses usually also have strong luck.

Historians who want to temporarily set back time on a genius will have to bear double the additional price depending on the strength of their luck.

"I've investigated you, and you were just a mediocre person in the past..."

Badu continued to say confidently, "But since you awakened your spirituality, you have begun to make rapid progress. In less than ten years, you have become a Sequence 6, and even a hereditary Duke. There must be a greater opportunity hidden in you than Gila. "

"So you're targeting me instead of Gila?"

Rosen asked unexpectedly.

"I've been keeping an eye on you since you came back to Chiying Principality."

Badu nodded and said, "But you are also a hereditary duke. There is no suitable reason to kill you. I am not sure that I can deal with the investigation of the World Government's intelligence department, so when Gila found me, I decided to sacrifice him after thinking about it. Solve you."

"How to deal with it."

Rosen sneered.

"this one!"

Badu smiled confidently, "How about you murdering the World Government employee Jira, and then being captured alive by me under my control? Don't worry, I won't kill you. I will send you to prison for a few years at most. The premise is Give me your chance."

"It seems you don't dare to kill a hereditary duke."

Rosen smiled sarcastically.

"Sometimes life is more difficult than death."

Badu put away his smile and stood up.

An hourglass instantly appeared in his left hand, and the gravel in the hourglass began to flow upward.

In just a short moment, Badu not only did not become younger due to the reversal of time, but his face was full of wrinkles and he could take his last breath at any time.

The confidence I had just now had completely disappeared, and all I had left was unbelievable panic.

Reversing time and age has caused his lifespan to pass crazily.

There is only one possibility. The life of the person in front of me is not flowing forward but in the opposite direction.

To put it more simply, the Rosen in front of him is a monster who gets younger and younger as he lives.

Rosen directly released the Nightmare Shackles, instantly binding Badu and sending him to the Void Divine Prison, unable to resist.

The masked assassin next to him wanted to escape when he saw the situation was not good, but in the shadow behind him, the self-portrait clone hidden in the void shadow, holding the portrait that had been painted not long ago, cast the death judgment and entered the consciousness sea of ​​the masked assassin wearing the cloak of the god of death.

The god of death's sickle harvested the spirit, instantly killing the masked assassin without letting him go alive.

Rosen sat in Badu's position, holding his cheeks with both hands and fell into deep thought.

He was not surprised that Badu would fail, because he was very confident that his luck was stronger than Badu's imagination.

But in his opinion, after Badu failed to reverse the time and age, he was still unlikely to be Badu's opponent. It was already a great thing to be able to escape. As a result, he never expected that Badu would almost exhaust his life and die of old age.

Now the trouble is even greater. How to explain to the world government for killing a historian?

Although Badu calculated him, didn't he fail?

The law is sometimes so painful, especially since the power behind Badu must be not small.

Without sufficient identity and background, it is not so easy to change careers to historians.

Especially in the eyes of many people, he can become a hereditary duke, and there must be a strong demigod behind him.

Badu, however, has no scruples at all. How dare he do this if he has no background?

Rosen sighed. It seems that if you want to avoid being coveted by others, you must either keep a low profile and not be coveted by others, or you can only fight your way out and pave a smooth road with blood. It is no wonder that those strong men in history have been accompanied by endless killing throughout their lives.

The power of the Time Tower covers the Void God Prison, and the imprisoned Badu begins to enjoy the torture of wanting to live but not being able to die.

Badu, who was about to die of old age due to unknown injuries, could not bear the torture of the Void God Prison at all.

So even though people were almost tortured to death, they still could not transform Badu into a crazy believer.

Even Badu's spirituality could not be weakened to Sequence 6, so Rosen could not control Badu through mind control.

It is not difficult to kill Badu, who is in the dying state of Sequence 4, but it is impossible to control him.

Rosen had no choice but to execute Badu in the mysterious study.

The kind that completely crushed Badu to ashes, and even did not use the death sentence to harvest Badu's spirituality.

The reason is very simple, killing Badu is not as simple as killing Ford.

In order to covet the power of the demon god, Ford took the initiative to erase all traces, and it was Ford who took action first. Even if the matter was exposed, Ford would be more than dead. If you want to rely on Ford to make trouble for him, it can only be a personal revenge.

But Badu is different. His status in the world government is much higher than Ford.

And the background is deeper. In this case, if someone catches him killing Badu, the evidence of white can sometimes be regarded as black.

So Rosen chose to crush Badu's bones and ash in the mysterious study, so that he completely disappeared from the world.

Since the mysterious study is known to isolate everything, even powerful prophecy methods cannot determine whether Badu is dead or alive. At most, they can only determine that Badu is missing and cannot be found.

It is not so easy for the forces behind Badu to use Badu to attack him without confirming Badu's death.

Because he was secretly captured by the assassin, no one knew that Rosen had contacted Badu.

Rosen dropped a few spiritual purification bombs and disappeared in Badu's study. He was teleported back to the Blazing Shadow King City through the void phase of the Fairy Dragon Ball, and then took Jira to the Volcano City again through the teleportation array of the Wizard Tower.

After submitting the task to the Spirit World Deep Network, it took a long time before a Sequence 6 came to receive Jira.

Apparently, it was Badu's disappearance that caused the World Government's Merit System to temporarily appoint a deputy to hand over the task.

After Rosen handed over the half-dead Jira, he returned to the Blazing Shadow King City without any trouble.

He had used his merits to offset the forced conscription, and he had completed the punishment mission.

In this case, the World Government had no right to force him to do anything.

However, after an in-depth investigation, Rosen found that it was difficult for him to practice quietly.

Because after he purchased relevant information on the Spirit World Deep Network, he found that Badu's background was indeed very deep. His family had a titled demigod within five generations, and the relationship had not been severed within five generations, so Badu's backer was a Sequence 2.

If such a being really targeted him, if he couldn't attack him openly, couldn't he kill him secretly?

Rosen felt that it was a bit unsafe to stay in the Blazing Shadow City. After considering it, he decided to return to the Thunder Empire.

Anyway, there was nothing to be nostalgic about the Blazing Shadow Principality. The relatively safer Thunder Empire was more suitable for settlement.

But just as he was about to leave, Volcano City was undergoing a huge change.

Volcano City was constantly expanding and getting bigger. To be more precise, it should be the Volcano City that was once sealed and shrunk. Now it is gradually unsealing and returning to its true size. Soon, the Blazing Shadow Principality issued a call for recruitment in the name of the World Government.

All extraordinary people were not allowed to leave the Blazing Shadow Principality. As compensation, the merits gained by everyone were increased tenfold.

Rosen quickly figured out what was going on through the connections he made in the Blazing Shadow City.

It turned out that the volcano in Volcano City was said to be able to lead directly to the abyss.

What flows out of it is not normal magma from deep in the earth's crust, but magma from the abyss plane. There is a huge spiritual realm hidden here. The world government relies on the power of this spiritual realm to suppress this channel.

There are many abyss channels like this in the human world, and almost all of them are sealed all year round.

It's not that they can't be destroyed, but the cost of destroying such a channel is too high.

So it is better to seal it, and filter the abyss spirit in the magma through the seal, and then in turn harvest continuous extraordinary resources. Now that the seal under Volcano City has problems, it is not easy to reinforce the seal again.

The simplest way is to send human extraordinary people into the spiritual realm under Volcano City.

Then kill the abyss demons in the spiritual realm. The more you kill, the less pressure there is on the seal and the easier it is to reinforce the seal.

Rosen thought of a possibility. Could it be that the seal has problems because of Badu's disappearance?

He was curious why the World Government sent a historian to Volcano City. Maybe Badu's other responsibility is to guard the seal and continuously reinforce the seal. But Badu has only been missing for a short time. Is the seal so fragile?

Rosen thought, Badu has quietly become Sequence 4 but still chose to stay in Volcano City.

So could it be that Badu used this sealed abyss channel to seek improper benefits, so that the seal has already had many problems, and this time Badu's disappearance is just the last straw that broke the camel's back.

This explains why the seal had problems at this time.

Ten times the merit settlement, to be honest, is a bit tempting.

The merit of the World Government can not only offset the front-line military service, but also be exchanged for almost all treasures.

No force has more treasures than the World Government. The World Government has almost all the painter skills he wants.

As for Badu's five generations of demigod backers, if you have the ability, kill him in the mysterious study.

As long as this person does not take action openly, no matter how many assassins are sent, they are all sending treasures to him.

Rosen packed his luggage and rushed to Volcano City through the free wizard tower teleportation array in the Blazing King City.

Today, Volcano City is so lively that 90% of ordinary people have evacuated and temporarily dispersed to nearby cities.

But there are always some who are not afraid of death and stay to make a fortune.

Hundreds of thousands of extraordinary sequences in the entire Blazing Principality, from sequence 9 to sequence 4, almost all came to Volcano City.

Those who did not come also had other duties and did not come under the guarantee of the Grand Duke of Blazing.

At this time, a demigod sent by the World Government was already investigating the specific situation of the seal and the detailed solution.

Unexpectedly, I believe the results of the investigation will be made public soon.

Badu, who was sent by the World Government to Volcano City, took the initiative to relax the seal, and traded with the Abyss Demon to obtain a large amount of extraordinary resources. After becoming Sequence 4, he found it difficult to continue to maintain the seal and caused a big disaster, so he fled for fear of crime and his whereabouts are unknown.

Rosen was shocked to know the results of the investigation, which directly picked him out perfectly.

Not surprisingly, the World Government members investigating the seal should be at odds with Badu.

It is easy to imagine that the seal has such a big problem, and the forces behind Badu are definitely not the ones who came to investigate.

Maybe it is the hostile forces that came, because it is not so easy for the hostile forces to buy them off.

Of course, this does not mean that the hostile forces have the opportunity to frame them, and there may be neutral forces responsible for coordinating the investigation.

If the investigation really finds that Badu took the initiative to weaken the seal for the sake of profit, then the missing Badu will naturally be considered to have fled for fear of crime, and it is even possible to suspect that Badu fled to the abyss.

After all, the Abyss is shrouded by the eternal will of the Abyss, and it is a terrifying existence that the World Government cannot do anything about.

Rosen saw that his troubles were solved inadvertently, and his intuition told him that this was the power of luck.

The bustle of Volcano City lasted for a few days before it became quiet, because the entrance to the Spirit Realm had been opened.

The first to enter were Sequence 4 and Sequence 5, and after several days of bloody battles, everyone returned seriously injured.

Next came Sequence 6 and Sequence 7, and Rosen also got detailed information about the Spirit Realm.

It turned out that this Spirit Realm was actually equivalent to a small, inferior Abyss.

So it is divided into seven layers in total, and the highest layer can accommodate Sequence 3.

The life in the Spirit Realm is not reset and refreshed by the Spirit Realm itself, but each layer has an Abyss gap, which requires human transcendents of the corresponding sequence level to kill all the Abyss demons in it, and then the demigods of the World Government can seal the Abyss gap.

In a sense, this Spirit Realm can be regarded as a projection of the Abyss.

It is equivalent to the outpost of the Abyss invading various worlds, so the crime that Badu bears is really not small.

There were more than a hundred Sequence 6s and more than three thousand Sequence 7s. The higher the sequence level, the more the number of people decreased.

Rosen saw a dozen very old Sequence 6s, each of whom looked very old.

But he did not underestimate these dozen people. First of all, being able to live to the end of their lifespan was a remarkable thing in itself. Secondly, after a long life, when they completely gave up the idea of ​​becoming a Sequence 5, they would break the limit of learning three acquired skills per sequence level.

These Sequence 6s who have lived for at least hundreds or thousands of years may have mastered no less than ten LV5 perfect skills.

Even if fighting with ordinary Sequence 5s, these people have an 80% to 90% chance of winning.

So these people are the main force in hunting the abyss demons this time, and the rest are just responsible for clearing the monsters.

At the bottom of the crater, the abyss gate dozens of meters high opened with a bang.

After Rosen and other Sequence 6s entered the fourth floor, the subsequent Sequence 7s also entered the third floor one by one.

The first thing they felt after passing through the abyss gate was the burning heat.

Rosen looked around and found that it was indeed a random delivery and could not be teleported to a fixed point.

The surrounding environment is full of erupting volcanoes and magma. The volcanoes here are normal in size, with a diameter of several thousand meters at most. There is a kind of soft coral-shaped plant living in the rolling magma. These should be lava coral grass that can absorb high temperatures.

Rosen took out a special thermometer. The normal temperature of the surrounding environment is less than 90 degrees.

For Sequence 6, this temperature should be like a breeze.

However, he felt very hot. Does this mean that the high temperature here can directly affect the spirit?

This information does not say that, but not saying it means that abnormal changes have occurred here.

Rosen activated the Void Shadow Escape and escaped into the shadow. At the same time, he released the Hunter Eye from his right eye.

He looked around from high in the sky and soon found many dangerous abyss demons.

Those lava snakes shuttling in the magma, those fire demons absorbing volcanic heat in the volcano, those abyss bone demons running on the flames, and those abyss stone demons flying in the sky in groups. There are at least hundreds of Sequence 6 within a radius of dozens of miles.

Rosen did not find any other human traces in this range. This was not the size of the space that the fourth floor should have.

And one person had to face so many sequence 6s. Could he let them come in and die?

He activated the Lazy Foot and tried to leave this spiritual realm, but the Lazy Foot was completely unable to penetrate the surrounding space.

You should know that his Lazy Foot can freely travel to the spiritual realms below sequence 2. The spiritual realm sealed under the volcano is only sequence 3. Although there is a seal of the World Government outside, even if the Lazy Foot cannot leave, it will not be unable to shake the space.

Rosen immediately thought of a possibility that there might be something wrong with the abyss gate he passed through.

He sensed the noble sequence ancient tree of the spiritual world at the first time, but as expected, he could not sense it at all.

This means that there is no spiritual world where he is currently.

"This is the abyss, the real abyss..."

Rosen said the truth that he could not believe.

At the same time, the abyss gate in Volcano City was already in an uproar.

The World Government's special envoy, Sequence 3 Demigod Alvin Kevin, has discovered that all Sequence 6s who entered the Abyss Gate have lost contact. No one can do this under his nose except the Abyss Lords of Sequence 0 in the Abyss.

The good news is that the power that the Abyss Lords can quietly infiltrate is limited through the seal.

So the missing Sequence 6 should be randomly teleported to a certain layer of the Abyss.

The Abyss is extremely chaotic. Unless it is an Abyss Demon God who can control part of the Abyss' will, it is difficult for ordinary Abyss Lords to find those Sequence 6s scattered on different levels, so they don't have to face Sequence 0 directly.

But the bad news is that it is almost impossible for those Sequence 6s to come back after falling into the Abyss.

This time there was such a big mistake, I am afraid that the punishment he will receive from the World Government afterwards will not be small.

Rosen tried various means of contact and found that the Lord God's computer was completely unaffected and could log in to the Lord God Network and the Deep Network of the Spirit World at will. In addition, the Star Emblem of the Hereditary Duke can also contact the Deep Network of the Spirit World, but the network connection is intermittent.

Basically, it can be understood as a change from gigabit broadband to the old dial-up Internet.

It takes several minutes to upload a sentence on the Spirit World Deep Web.

Fortunately, he can still contact, and Rosen directly logs on to the official website of the World Government to ask about the Abyss Gate of the Principality of Blazing Shadow.

Two hours later, Rosen finally understood what was going on.

It turned out that the Abyss Monarch took action, so now he can only find a way to return to the main world by himself.

As compensation, the World Government gave him super high merits, and if he can rescue some sequence 6, there will be additional merits and rewards.

But people in the Abyss plane can't spend their merits. If he unfortunately dies here, those merits are all empty promises.

The only good news now is that after being located by the Spirit World Deep Web, he is now on the top layer of the 99-layer plane of the Abyss, that is, the 99th layer. Anyone on the 98th layer of the Star Emblem cannot receive the signal of the Spirit World Deep Web.
