Chapter 623 The End Is Coming
There are thousands of living things in the world.
Each organism has a different growth rate.
Some organisms can grow into giants within a year, and some organisms can still be larvae within a year.
But no matter how fast these organisms grow, they will eventually reach an end point called "death."
As one of the thousands of creatures in the world, the gatekeeper naturally cannot stay away.
They will die too.
But they can live longer than any other living thing.
And a long period of time can also allow them to refine abilities to a level that humans can never reach.
Spudimen's ability to reject everything called "isolation" is most suitable for the identity of "gatekeeper".
If you use your abilities in battle, you can at least be in an absolutely invincible position.
So when facing a group of ants, Spudimen never thought that he would lose or die...
how can that be possible--
How is this possible?
But this is not an illusion, it is reality.
The body was split in half vertically, but the strong vitality prevented Spudimen from dying immediately.
His eyes, which were still functioning biologically, were staring at Moyu in disbelief.
He couldn't accept it.
I can't figure out how this human being did it.
Everyone present looked at Spudimen's body that was dripping with a lot of blood, and they didn't understand how Moyu did it.
In less than a minute, what happened to Moyu?
So that the power of the slash can be increased by one dimension?
Moyu looked calmly at Spudimen, where the vitality was about to disappear.
The only remaining cornerstone was originally prepared to solve the "disaster".
But after successfully controlling the leader, I thought I could save this precious cornerstone.
But he didn't expect the gatekeeper to have such terrifying abilities.
Not only can it move them across the air, it can also control the wind circle filled with dense wind blades, as well as the kind of absolute defense involving the power of rules.
So Moyu naturally wants to use the cornerstone of the matchup to deal with the goalkeeper.
So under the ability of the cornerstone to "fight certain phenomena", Moyu gained the ability to "cut off space".
It is said that it is cutting off space, but it is actually a conceptual ability that is above the rules, and it is subtly related to his lost ability of "soul echo".
That knife blow just now,
It can be said that it cuts off the space, or it can be said that it cuts off the space including the shadow.
And this "passive ability" has a restrictive price.
Moyu can cause substantial damage to the target by cutting off the shadow, but his own shadow will also become the target of the attack.
But what’s interesting is…
There was no shadow of Moyo.
So this cost is basically negligible.
Moyu's silent silence, the gatekeeper's disbelief.
The venue was silent for a moment.
finally,
The life in the gatekeeper's body was gone, and his body that was split into two finally fell to the ground.
If he had a chance to do it again, the gatekeeper who had guarded this place for many years would definitely not make the decision to "deal with this group of humans."
Unfortunately there is no if.
Moyu confirmed the death of the gatekeeper, and then asked Chiduo to organize everyone to start rescuing the wounded.
"how did you do it?"
Jin came to the body of the gatekeeper and turned his head to look at Moyu.
The battle was over too quickly.
But everyone knows how the battle will turn out.
There was no possibility of breaking through the gatekeeper's defense...
Hearing Jin's unabashed inquiry, Moyu stared down at the gatekeeper's body, thinking about a certain question, and answered the question casually.
"I temporarily 'edited' my telepathy ability."
"..."
Jin was slightly startled when he heard this.
Editing ability...
This is the most interesting part of his "Ready Player One" ability.
But ad hoc editing capabilities are easier said than done.
But if this person was Moyu, Jin had no doubt at all.
After all, he had personally experienced Moyu's ability to edit telekinesis on the spot during that battle.
"sharp."
After a few seconds of silence, Jin praised him seriously and did not ask what price Moyu had to bear.
Moyu smiled and continued to look at the body of the gatekeeper.
He is thinking——
Should we use the "gene chimerism" ability on the gatekeeper?
It is possible that the conditions for use cannot be met, or it is possible that the genetic ability of the gatekeeper is successfully absorbed.
Moyu hesitated.
Even if he absolutely absorbs the gatekeeper's genes, he cannot do it in front of everyone.
"There's no rush, let's wait until Chiduo and the others finish their work."
Moyu collected his thoughts for a moment.
This battle was very sudden, and the casualties were quite serious. It would probably take at least a day before we could start again.
The other step is to figure out where you are and where the Purple Smoke has gone.
Without the Purple Smoke, it would be difficult for them to cross the undeveloped waters, let alone return to the six continents.
Thinking of going together with Mo You, there were also Mo Laowu and the others.
When they were forcibly transferred by the gatekeeper, the Purple Smoke did not come with them.
From this point of view, the transfer ability is mostly aimed at living creatures.
And the problem now is——
How to retrieve the Purple Smoke number.
This problem alone makes Mo Laowu and others feel troublesome.
Only Moyu didn't panic at all.
Before coming to the Dark Continent, he had already prepared a backup plan. As long as he had crossed the Dark Sea, he didn't have to worry about not being able to go back.
So he was more concerned about the number of "gatekeepers" than the return journey.
"We don't rule out the possibility that there is a second gatekeeper here. In short... wait for the wounded to take care of their injuries and leave the place of trouble as soon as possible."
Moyu moved his eyes away from the body of the gatekeeper and turned to look at the surrounding environment.
This is a barren flat land with no greenery at all, and the view is so wide that you can't even see the end of it at a glance.
Since there are no obvious reference objects and no buildings such as city walls can be seen, it is difficult to judge whether this is the continent where we visited the gatekeeper before.
If you have to say there are similarities...
When the gatekeeper opened the door before, he could vaguely see that the environment inside the door was similar to here, with desolate and barren land.
That night.
The team decided to rest in place for a day.
The wind circle trap set by the gatekeeper reduced Byande's team to only nine people, and Moyo also sacrificed two members with special talents.
They are Nong Wu, who is responsible for logistics and transportation, and Kong Lu, who has rich knowledge of fantasy beasts.
In addition, more than half were wounded.
Except for a few people in Moyu, everyone else suffered injuries of varying severity.
Take Peng Si, the members with weaker protective abilities, all of them were seriously injured.
Thanks to the strong medical ability of the team, they were able to save them from the gate of hell.
There was no spare time to mourn for the dead. After dealing with the injuries of the wounded, Chiduo held a meeting under Moyu's instruction to discuss the subsequent decision.
Moyo did not attend the meeting, but went to the place where the gatekeeper's body was laid.
After much thought, he decided to use the "gene chimerism" ability on the gatekeeper.
The next day, at noon.
The temperature was quite low last night, but it was extremely high during the day.
Unsure of how large the wasteland was, the team set off immediately.
After all, supplies cannot be replenished in real time in this environment. If it weren't for Axi's storage space ability, I'm afraid that even if they could solve the threat of the gatekeeper, they would still die here due to food and water problems.
Not to mention the seriously injured members of the team. Without medical supplies and equipment, they would never survive with that level of injury.
Most of the team members were wounded, which limited their marching speed.
However, the food and water sources in the mind space are still sufficient, so there is no need to worry within a week.
Several days passed.
The team has not yet left the wasteland, and food and drinking water are getting less and less day by day.
But compared to the food problem, Moyu is more worried about the possible consequences of the death of the gatekeeper Spudimen.
He didn't know the specific details of the gatekeeper, so he had this concern.
But once people worry about something, something will come.
This evening.
The marching team suddenly felt a strong sense of oppression like black clouds pressing down on the city.
Several powerful auras came from behind.
Everyone in the team looked at concentration, and Moyu, who was leading the way, ducked to the back of the team and looked up in the direction where the breath was coming from.
Under his gaze, a tall and thin figure flew quickly over the wasteland, breaking into everyone's field of vision in just a moment.
The person was about three meters tall, with flaming down all over his body. He had narrow eyes and a long black nose. A pair of arms hung down in front of his knees like bamboo poles, and terrifying telepathy surged above his body.
Obviously another powerful Warcraft clan.
Promixi is the name of this Warcraft clan.
We are all members of the gatekeeper clan, and this pursuit is for the death of Spudimen.
"You were the one who killed Spudimen?"
Breaking into everyone's field of vision at lightning speed, Promixi immediately locked onto Moyu, who had the strongest aura.
No basis is needed at all.
Some things can be determined by just one glance.
Facing Promixi's questioning, Moyu confirmed that the other party was also from the gatekeeper clan.
He did not respond to the question, and in the silence, he materialized the black knife.
seven.
This is a powerful breath that can be felt.
But the red-haired monster in front of me seemed to be the fastest, so I rushed to the front.
From this point, it can be seen that the gatekeeper clan obviously has no awareness of coordinated operations.
This is good news.
Seeing that Moyu remained silent, Promixi didn't care either.
Because just when he asked, he was already ready to attack.
Swish——
In the midst of the surging thought power, a sharp white bone as thick as a baby's arm appeared in an instant, and in an instant it was stabbed on Moyu's forehead.
There is no warning for such an attack, and it is impossible to prevent it.
By the time everyone reacted, the sharp white bone had already hit Moyu.
Promixi's face was expressionless, with a look of indifference in his eyes.
However--
The indifference in his eyes was quickly replaced by surprise.
The sharp white bone that hit Moyu's forehead actually cracked and shattered in the next moment.
"you……!!!"
Promixi's expression changed, and his slightly widened eyes stared at Moyu.
The power of isolation...
This is the innate ability of their gatekeeper clan.
Why can this human being use it too?
Just as Promise was shocked, Moyu's face was calm, and he flashed in front of Promise, and then swung his sword to cut.
The sharp sword flashed.
Before Promise could react, he felt the long-lost pain.
"How is it possible!?"
A look of astonishment appeared on Promise's face.
Then,
that astonished expression was cut in half.
Promise followed the footsteps of Spudimon and was cut in half by Moyu's sword.
The other six gatekeepers who were rushing here saw Moyu cut Promise in half from a distance, and they were all shocked and showed unbelievable expressions.
But,
Heracles, who was famous for his strength among the gatekeepers, did not even feel sad for a moment for Promise's death. He rushed to the battlefield immediately.
Moyu looked at Heracles, who was as strong as a dinosaur, and slashed again.
The slash that could perfectly target the "power of isolation" instantly cut Hercules in half as he rushed to the battlefield.
There was no time to mourn for Hercules, and the next one to appear was...
The third gatekeeper.
One minute later.
Seven more corpses appeared on the desolate land.
Everyone in the field looked at the seven corpses in a daze.
Even if you saw it with your own eyes, you couldn't imagine that these seven gatekeepers with extraordinary auras were solved by Moyu like cutting melons and vegetables.
But Moyu didn't want to wait for them to recover naturally, and called them to leave quickly.
If the situation allowed, he didn't want to kill the gatekeeper at all.
Even if "Viewing" gave him a generous reward after the battle, he would not use it to hunt the gatekeeper.
Because in his opinion, no matter what the gatekeeper's purpose was, it was a good thing for the entire human race to isolate the passage between the Dark Continent and the Six Continents.
So if the gatekeepers were gone, Lake Mobius, where the six continents were located, would probably become the next habitat for creatures in the Dark Continent in a short time.
On the other hand.
Moyu hoped that these corpses could give the gatekeepers a warning.
Leaving the gatekeepers' bodies where they were, the team continued to move forward.
Several days passed afterwards.
The sun was high in the wasteland, and with such high temperatures, the gatekeepers' bodies scattered all over the ground showed no signs of decay.
Rustle——
A slight sound of footsteps came from a distance.
A short figure slowly came to the gatekeeper's body.
This figure was a very old human, with a hunched body and a face like dry bark.
If Moyu was present, he would definitely be able to find similarities between this human's facial features and that of Geno of the Zoldyck family.
This human——
was Zoldyck Jaeger, who teamed up with Neteroline in the early years to challenge the Dark Continent.
He lowered his head, and his cloudy eyes carefully looked at the broken body of the gatekeeper. A strange expression that seemed to be neither smiling nor crying slowly emerged on his face that was as dry as tree bark.
"Good, good, good!"
Jeg muttered to himself.
On the other side.
It took about a week for Moyu and others to finally walk out of the wasteland.
Then Moyu quickly confirmed one thing.
Only one step away from the return journey.
