Monarch of Evernight: Thirty-Four Strange Trees
bsp;Not only distance, but also the concept of time is somewhat blurry on the void continent.
Human perception is completely unaware of the passage of time, and the orbital positions of the sun, moon, and even the asteroid belt in the sky are also different from other continents. The Force field clock has been running, but with the will of the void beast omnipresent, it is not known whether the environmental force on which it relies is normal.
In the following days, Qianye encountered dark race warriors twice, and both of them easily defeated his opponents. But the five opponents he met for the second time had already formed a team. Although there was only one viscount among them, Qianye still spent a lot of effort to deal with them.
Qianye noticed that the real trouble had just begun. Apparently, the powerful men who were searching for the Sleep of Behemoths on the other side of the Evernight Continent had begun to enter this world one after another.
In contrast, the suppression of the void beast's will distorts perception to the point of affecting the way of fighting. For Qianye, it is a minor trouble that can be adjusted quickly.
Perception is distorted, which directly affects vision and hearing. Everything seen and heard is quite different from the real world. In this case, long-distance sniping becomes very unrealistic.
Not only Qianye, but the dark powerhouses on the Yongye side also discovered this pattern. Therefore, once people from the two camps find each other, even if they are three to five hundred meters apart, they will charge directly and solve their opponents in close combat.
When Qianye saw three vampires appearing on the opposite side, the other side also spotted him at the same time. The three vampires all carried long sniper rifles on their backs, but they all discarded them. They drew out their short swords/guns and quickly approached Qianye with the help of terrain cover.
A silver-gray sniper rifle appeared in Qianye's hand, aiming at one of his opponents.
The three vampires all sneered. The person being targeted didn't even bother to dodge and continued to approach at full speed.
Bang!
The dull sound of gunfire echoed over the stone forest. The vampire seemed to have been hit by an invisible sledgehammer. He suddenly changed from forward to flying backwards. There was a big hole in his chest. Most of his shoulders were blown away, leaving only his arms. A small section of flesh is connected to the torso.
This shot immediately stunned the other two vampires. They are also experts in using sniper rifles, and have tried to snipe Imperial opponents more than once in the past few days. But as long as the distance exceeds 100 meters, the accuracy will drop sharply, and there is almost no chance of hitting at a distance of 200 meters.
This time the distance between the two sides was more than 300 meters, but Qianye hit him with one shot. Is this just a coincidence?
Just when they hesitated, the sniper rifle in Qianye's hand roared again. The huge power of the level 6 sniper rifle directly knocked off half of the head of another vampire.
Seeing Qianye pointing the gun at him again, the third vampire was so frightened that he turned around and ran away, not even caring about the bodies of his two companions. As soon as he exerted his strength, he escaped a hundred meters in an instant.
At this moment gunshots rang out again, and he couldn't help but turn around. I saw a Force sniper bullet flying out of Qianye's gun, far away from the target, but it actually flew in an erratic arc. But even this weird ballistic trajectory still hit the vampire's back heart and directly shattered his blood core.
After killing the last opponent, the blue light in Qianye's eyes dissipated. In this world of distorted perception, true vision is surprisingly useful. After Qianye adapted to the pressure of the will of the void beast, the pupil of true vision slowly regained its ability. Now he can at least control his surroundings during battle. Real scene within 500 meters.
Inspecting the corpses of the three vampires, Qianye unexpectedly discovered that they were all from the Monroe clan, and judging from the badge marks on their bodies, one of them had a quite high status. It's just that they were too confident and didn't expect Qianye to be able to accurately snipe his opponent within 500 meters, so they were devastated by Zhao Clan's exquisite level 6 sniper rifle combined with the magic-breaking mithril bullets.
For some reason, seeing the warriors of the Monroe clan here always makes Qianye feel vaguely uncomfortable.
Qianye collected the trophies, especially the sniper rifle he got from the vampire youth with the pure blood status of the clan, which made Qianye very satisfied. This is also a level 6 sniper rifle. Its workmanship is slightly better than the one produced by Zhao Family, and it is also more powerful.
Qianye continued to advance deeper into the stone forest. The towering, cloud-like backbone of the giant beast still seemed to be far away, not close at all. Qianye has become accustomed to it. Even his real field of vision cannot tell how far away he is from that spine.
In the next few days, Qianye encountered two waves of beasts, one of which was the double-horned sword-bone horse that he had seen before, and the other was dozens of lion-like beasts. It's just that their strength far exceeds that of lions, and each of them has the force power of an eighth/ninth level warrior. Dozens of them swarmed up, and Qianye had no time to kill them one by one, so he had to use his life force to plunder them and kill them all in one fell swoop.
Dozens of ferocious beasts provided Qianye with an unusually large amount of blood essence. Qianye simply rested for a day and used Xuan Pian to transform all the blood essence before moving forward. After this period of accumulation, another feather appeared on the original wings. It seemed that after a few more transformations of blood essence, the second original spear would appear.
The more killing weapons like the original gun, the better. Therefore, Qianye did not try to affect the distribution ratio of the dark force at all, and allowed the original wings to absorb the semi-dark force. The Black Book quietly swallowed up most of the rest, and the last bit left was for the blood in the body to absorb.
This world is very barren, but the essence and blood of the beasts are extremely strong, several times that of the same level of land beasts on the mainland. With a steady supply of essence and blood, Qianye doesn't have to worry about replenishing the dark force.
After walking a little further, the scenery in front of Qianye suddenly changed, as if he was suddenly in a different world.
The ground is no longer the gravel of the stone forest, but is covered with a soft and thick layer of purple-black material with bright orange spots on it. When you step on it, it looks like a living thing, and it will continue to squirm.
Qianye squatted down, stabbed lightly with a short knife, and poked a hole in the thick layer of purple substance. A translucent light yellow oil immediately seeped out from the hole. The cut wound was still stretching and contracting, like a split mouth, which was a bit creepy to see.
Qianye picked up a little of the oozing oil with the tip of the knife, looked at it for a while, smelled it, and then stretched out his fingers to get some on his skin. He now has gold-burning blood in his veins, and his resistance to most toxins is almost immune, so he is not too worried about this thing being poisonous.
However, there was nothing unusual after the oil seeped into the skin. Qianye put a little more into his mouth to experience it carefully. After trying it, in addition to the slightly fishy taste, I unexpectedly found that the butter oozing out of the soft purple texture was not only edible, but also contained extremely high energy. According to the consumption of normal people, just drinking a small spoonful can maintain activities throughout the day.
Qianye stabbed again, this time making a longer and deeper wound on the purple soft material. As expected, a large amount of yellow oil oozed out, slowly sticking the wound together.
Qianye breathed a sigh of relief. Since he fell into this world, he has traveled all the way to places where food is extremely scarce. Although he brought supplies in the Anduya space, the quantity was limited. And on the soft purple material that covers the ground in front of you, you no longer have to worry about food, there is almost never enough food.
But what exactly is this purple soft material and why does it appear here?
On this purple-black ooze-like substrate, a faint mist is constantly emitting, and the perception can only extend for tens of meters. Qianye activated the Eye of True Sight and found that the real field of vision had been compressed again. Now he could only clearly see the scenery two to three hundred meters away.
However, the gap in field of view is still enough to give Qianye a huge advantage in mid- and long-range sniping.
After walking forward for a while, the unchanging empty purple-black land in the field of vision changed, and woods appeared ahead. When he got closer, Qianye saw patches of strange plants. There are large trees growing here that are also purple-black in color and covered with orange spots. The crown of the tree is a huge oval sphere shaped like a honeycomb.
These strange big trees are hundreds of meters high. The honeycomb spheres on the top are dozens of meters in diameter. They are covered with purple-black grids, and the grids are filled with red, orange and yellow intertwined colors. It's so gorgeous that it makes people feel very weird.
Suddenly arriving at such a place, Qianye immediately restrained his breath, hid behind a big tree, and carefully observed the surrounding environment. After a while, after seeing no signs of biological activity, Qianye reached out and touched the big tree next to him.
The trunk of the big tree was very hard. When Qianye knocked on it with a short knife, it made a metallic sound. He tried sawing a few more times with the teeth on the back of the knife, pulling out sparks, but only a few white marks were left on the trunk. The trunks of these strange trees are made of an unknown material, and are harder than alloy steel.
However, the slight tremor that occurred while sawing the tree trunk made Qianye's heart move. He used the force and struck the tree trunk with a short knife. Sure enough, he felt the shock wave extending all the way along the trunk.
Qianye opened his true vision and used the force again. He placed one hand on the tree trunk and punched it with the other hand. This punch was so powerful that the whole tree was shaking, and in the real field of view, there were shock waves inside the tree like tidal waves.
There is actually the Force inside this big tree?
This discovery shocked Qianye, so he punched the tree trunk again, which indeed caused the tree to tremble again. Relying on his true vision and perception of shock waves, Qianye also had a preliminary understanding of the internal structure of this big tree.
There are hundreds of passages within the big tree, just like the blood of Force practitioners, allowing the Force to pass through. Although the force inside it is thin, it actually exists in a liquid state according to Qianye's perception. Formally speaking, it can be regarded as a source liquid that has been diluted hundreds of times.
After being diluted hundreds of times, it is still the source liquid. Based on this alone, the value of this strange tree is amazing.
The oval crown at the top of the tree is divided into spaces similar to hives. There are actually things gestating in some of the hives!
