Douluo Dalu Chapter 614: Sacrifice! Forest King, Tang San nine rings

Chapter 614 Sacrifice! Forest King, Tang San nine rings

The majestic voice that sounded in the head of Tang San is finally, the voice has become Nothingness 缥缈, but Tang San is respectful, you do n’t need to ask him to understand, whether the golden phantom or the majestic voice comes from The real Sea God, or Sea God, stays in the brand of this World. I finally got a glimpse of the doorway of Divine Skill for the first time.

While Tang San regained control of the body, the four Titled Douluo who had been hit hard had just risen from the ground in the distance, and their faces were shocked. In the mid-air, the purple fragments of Bibi Dong's body are condensing in a rapid circle, and under the action of purple light lines, they are stuck together like a suture. At the same time, these pieces were surrounded by a strange purple light pattern.

For Sea God, Tang San is convinced. Since Sea God said that they could not kill Bibi Dong before to turn into a God, there must be no chance. Without hesitation, when mental force was almost exhausted, he reluctantly raised a trace of energy and urged Vast Sea Protective Barrier to hide, quietly hiding in the deep forest. And none of the four Titled Douluo who got up dared to catch up. They have been scared by the real Divine Skill of Golden Thirteen Halberds.

No wonder they are so. One blow hit five Titled Douluos, including Spirit Empire Emperor, the peak level of Bibi Dong. How could they not be afraid of such strength? The Sea God Trident in the hands of Tang San gave them too much shock.

The purple moire becomes more and more intense, to shatter's Death Spider Emperor body slowly converges, and returns to the shape before to shatter. It was just a touch of gold in the purple magic lines on her body. Just after the avatar state was restored, Bibi Dong immediately lifted its Spirit avatar and turned into the body. Even Spirit was received back.

Wow, she spit out with golden blood, her body was shaking violently, and her beautiful eyes were full of unwillingness. "This person will be the biggest obstacle for me to rule the continent."

After saying this, she fell straight to the ground, and put her hands in a strange posture to enter the state of cultivation.

The Death Spider Emperor Ninth Spirit Ability that was previously used by Bibi Dong is called Undying Body. Generally speaking, for the Spirit Master, the strongest Ninth Spirit Ability will definitely not be absorbed as an auxiliary skill, but Bibi Dong is twin spirits, and she is naturally not afraid. Her Ninth Spirit Ability comes from a 100,000-year Spirit Beast, Death Spider Emperor that is the same as her Spirit. In order to hunt this Spirit Beast, it took her a full year to finally achieve her goal. Obtained this spirit ring and Death Spider Emperor Spirit Bone. Among the two skills brought to her by 100,000 years Spirit Ability, one is the life-saving auxiliary skills she just showed, Undying Body. Even if the body is separated from to shatter in the enemy's attack, it can re-aggregate. Compared with the repair ability of Tang San Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone, it goes one step further.

When Bibi Dong obviously felt that the golden trident brought her a fatal threat, she quickly switched to her Death Spider Emperor Spirit, and then used this life-saving Ninth Spirit Ability. No matter how powerful the opponent's attack was, it was not enough to kill her. Yourself. However, Sea God's gold divine force is not so easy to connect. Although she has blocked most of them with the Undying Body, there is still a small amount of invasion into the body, which requires her to resolve on her own.

In this case, let alone Bibi Dong use Mental detection to find Tang San. Even the self-protection is a problem. The four Elder of Spirit Empire hurriedly guarded her body. Of course, from their own heart, even if they can't wait for the Chrysanthemum Douluo of Tang San broken corpse 10,000 sections, they dare not chase it out. Everyone's life is only one time, so it's hard to cultivate to Titled Douluo level, who would like to take risks? At the same time, the strength shown by Tang San also gave them a feeling of weakness. What kind of opponent is this, so powerful that even the adult Supreme Pontiff was seriously injured.

In fact, Tang San's ability is certainly not enough to do this. Just like he does not understand the skills of Bibi Dong, Bibi Dong and these bits Titled Douluo also know nothing about his skills, especially Sea God Trident. In this case it can be said that he was caught off guard. Coupled with the real Sea God imprinting power, this repelled them all. If it is true that Sea God is here, then the second form Millennial Space will be enough to kill them. Even Bibi Dong will be hit hard. After all, although there is only one step between Douluo, the peak of the ninety-nineth level, and God, the strength is vastly different. And the current Bibi Dong is not a complete Bibi Dong. Some of her strengths are used for other purposes and cannot be adjusted. That other use is even more important than getting spirit ring with two Forest Kings.

Tang San was overdrawn when he fled. Sea God Trident's consumption of mental force and spirit power was too large. Even the last attack was based on the use of Sea God to imprint its own energy, but Tang San has been used three times before. Although the body does not say that the oil is exhausted, it is weak. It is difficult to maintain the stealth ability of Vast Sea Protective Barrier.

Under the traction of the soul, Tang San soon felt the anxious soul wave of Xiao Wu, and quickly approached him. As for the situation of several Titled Douluos in Bibi Dong, his judgment is almost the same as reality. For at least half an hour, these people would never dare to leave behind Bibi Dong. In this way, give yourself plenty of time.

Xiao Wu They didn't run very far, just five miles from where they fought before. When Tang San came here, Xiao Wu was crying out loud.

"Da Ming, Er Ming, you have to hold on, you can't die! Brother will be here soon. He is a master of detoxification and will definitely save you." While crying, Xiao Wu kept injecting his own spirit power into Inside the two great beasts.

However, no matter whether Da Ming or Er Ming, the light in their eyes is still getting darker and darker, and their bodies can no longer move for half a minute.

"Xiao Wu, don't waste any more effort. We can't do it anymore. The human Spirit comes with the strongest poison in the world. The toxin of Death Spider Emperor has no solution. Moreover, the poison not only invaded our Internal organs have also eroded our souls. Do n’t cry, can you and Tang San save us and not kill our rivals, we are already very happy. We have lived for 100,000 years, and even death is not a death . Did not die in the hands of the enemy, did not become her spirit ring, we are satisfied. "Da Ming's eyes are almost closed, and even the power supporting the eyelids is about to disappear.

While they are talking, Tang San has rushed over and released the invisibility status of Vast Sea Protective Barrier.

Seeing Tang San, Xiao Wu is like grabbing a life-saving straw, and hurries him, saying, "Brother, you can save them. Da Ming, Er Ming will not work."

Tang San was shocked. Regardless of his physical weakness, he hurried to get closer, and found out two solutions Poison Drug that he had refined from Wishful Hundred Treasure Purse. At the same time urged with his own remaining spirit power.

"Tang San, do n’t waste any effort. Even if God is here, it is impossible to save us. We are not the same as your human body structure. You happened to be here, and before we die, we have time to tell you Thank you last time. Thank you for not letting us die in the hands of that person. "

Tang San hurried to comfort: "Da Ming, you will be fine. I will definitely find a way to save you."

Suddenly, Da Ming opened his eyes suddenly, and his eyes regained a strong luster, as if he had regained his vitality in an instant.

"Tang San, listen to me." With the reply from Mental, Da Ming's voice became powerful. Seeing this scene, Tang San's face changed tragically. How could he not see the deep toxicology? At this time, Da Ming was really running out of oil, and the sudden recovery of Mental was back to life!

"I don't have much time." Da Ming looked at Tang San and then Xiao Wu. The dying Er Ming beside it also opened his eyes, but his yellow eyes were already dark at this time. .

"Tang San, our own physical condition knows that this body has been completely corroded, unless you can now take out the herb that saved the Xiao Wu body last time, otherwise we have no chance. My Time is running out, let me finish. "

The herb that Da Ming refers to is naturally Yearning Heartbroken Red. Where can Tang San be found? Even if you can find it now, it's too late. Yearning Heartbroken Red is so demanding for consumers.

Tang San stared at Da Ming and nodded, but Xiao Wu leaped violently, holding Da Ming's thick neck and crying.

Da Ming's eyes flashed with leisurely light, "Tang San, frankly, at the beginning, I didn't like you. Xiao Wu has been with us all the time, the three of us have lived together for nearly 100,000 years. No matter what she does, Er Ming and I support her, even if she chose to become a human in the end. When you appeared, we found that the heart of Xiao Wu had all been placed on you. Do you understand that feeling? It ’s like your sister has left with others. However, since the last incident, we all understand that you really love Xiao Wu. In order to save Xiao Wu, you would rather not have your own life, there is nothing wrong with the choice of Xiao Wu . You are her best place to go. This time, you come back together, I am really glad to see that Xiao Wu has been able to possess the soul, and I understand that you have been working tirelessly for her resurrect over the years. With Xiao Wu's vision, I found you, and I'm happy for her. I'm leaving, but I have one more wish. I hope you can help me achieve it, can I? "

Tang San nodded firmly and said decisively: "You say it. No matter what, I promise you." For nothing else, just for the relationship between Da Ming and Er Ming, he also has to complete Da Ming The last wish.

Da Ming nodded to Tang San and said with relief: "Thank you, Tang San. Today may be the most thankful day in my life. Xiao Wu, don't be sad. You have lived 100,000 years like us. You With Tang San, we have evolved into human beings and have new hope. But we have lived in this large forest for 100,000 years. In fact, we have long nostalgia for this World. In a sense, death can be regarded as the end, It can also be regarded as a new beginning. "

"Tang San, Er Ming and I see life and death very well, and death is not terrible to us. Without humiliating death in the adversary, we are satisfied. The only thing I can not rest assured is Xiao Wu. I finally The wish is to see the process of Xiao Wu completing resurrect with my own eyes at the last moment of my life.

Tang San hesitated for a moment, he did not expect that Da Ming would make such a request, and said sadly: "I'm sorry, Da Ming, I can't do it now. I don't have the strength of Titled Douluo. I'm afraid to let you down."

Da Ming's eyes suddenly sharpened, staring at Tang San, "Of course I can feel that your current spirit power is eighty-five, right? Isn't it just five-level spirit power? These five levels of spirit power and I and Er Ming can give you. However, after you have these five levels of spirit power, you must use Xiao Wu resurrect. Can you do it?

Tang San was taken aback, "Da Ming, you want to ..."

Xiao Wu raised his head sharply, grasping the scales on Da Ming tightly, "No, Da Ming, Er Ming, you can't do this."

The Er Ming, who has been silent, suddenly spoke. At this time, his eyes were already lit. Like the Da Ming, he was in a state of returning to the light, and staring at Tang San with the same eyes. "Xiao Wu, if you do n’t want us There is no value in death, so do n’t stop us. My brother and I already thought about it. Since it is necessary to die, why not die is more meaningful. Being able to help you resurrect, our death is also worth it. Moreover, we have become Tang San After spirit ring, it can be said that you are still guarding you, Tang San, are you willing? The three of us are male. For Xiao Wu, would you like to pay with us? "

Da Ming and Er Ming both know how much damage resurrect Xiao Wu wants to Tang San. The two of them know that they will die, and hope to force Tang San to resurrect Xiao Wu with them at this last moment.

The strength of Tang San they also saw, resurrect Xiao Wu means that he has to give up the last ten levels of spirit power, he will never be a real strongman, and this is even better than death for a talented Spirit Master To be scary. So they worry that Tang San will keep Xiao Wu in the current state, instead of helping her to be a real resurrect.

Feeling the eyes of the two great beasts, Tang San's eyes also light up, the cold light flashes, "Da Ming, Er Ming, what are you worried about? Although you have been with Xiao Wu for 100,000 years, I am with her It's only been more than ten years, but my feelings for Xiao Wu are by no means shallower than you. I brought Xiao Wu to Star Dou Great Forest this time. I was going to help her resurrect. It ’s useless to say more, you look at it.

While talking, Tang San suddenly snapped to the side of Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu was completely stagnant at this time, how could you think that Tang San would suddenly shoot at itself. Before she could react, the palm of Tang San was already on her forehead, Xiao Wu moaned, her body slowly fell to the ground, red light waved from her, but struggled not to return to Tang San in vivo.

"What are you doing?" Da Ming and Er Ming growled at the same time. But now they can't move at all, they can only watch the action of Tang San.

Seagod's Light of Tang San was dimmed a lot due to insufficient mental force, but when the golden light appeared, it still restrained the soul of Xiao Wu and held her inside.

Looking at Da Ming and Er Ming, the corners of Tang San slipped, and suddenly, the left hand turned Sea God Trident, and the main blade was directly cut on his right shoulder. Sea God Trident is the real divine tool. Even the toughest body cannot compete with divine tool. The blood burst, and his entire right arm was cut off immediately.

Tang San's face turned pale in an instant, but he didn't even hum, and his eyes were still so cold. With his toes, he picked his right arm into the air, and at the same time his left hand was connected and sealed The blood in the right shoulder wound.

Seeing this scene, the original sharp eyes of Da Ming and Er Ming have all changed. Tang San did not explain them too much, and proved their determination to them by actual actions. The Xiao Wu soul was trapped inside his body, and then his right arm was severed immediately.

The right arm of Tang San is where Xiao Wu Spirit Bone is located. As a Spirit Master who has not reached level 90, Spirit Bone can only be separated when it dies. In other words, when Spirit Bone falls from itself, It is deadly in itself. Tang San even used divine tool Sea God Trident in order to be afraid that he could not cut off his right arm, showing how firm his determination was.

Tang San inserted Sea God Trident aside, catching his broken right arm with his left hand, he shook suddenly, shattered the flesh outside, took out the Xiao Wu Spirit Bone inside, held it in front of the eyes of the two great beasts, said coldly: "I I do n’t have much time, it ’s a man ’s promise. ”

Da Ming and Er Ming look at each other. At this time, not only are they dying, but Tang San is also dying. As long as his spirit power can't break through the ninety level, he will definitely die under Spirit Bone.

"Sorry." Da Ming and Er Ming spoke at the same time, their sharp eyes had softened, although their bodies were much taller than Tang San, but at this moment, Tang San was far ahead of them in their hearts. Especially his madness for Xiao Wu at all costs made the two great beasts self-defeating. They asked themselves, if it was not because of their own lives, they would never be able to do the same thing as Tang San. Yes, he is a real man.

Two majestic growls sounded at the same time, and two hot red lights burned in this Star Dou Great Forest. The dazzling red light, blooming from the heart of the two great beasts at the same time, everything has become absolute stillness in that red light.

Sacrifice, yes, it is sacrifice. This is what Da Ming said, and he and Er Ming have a way to get Tang San directly to level ninety. The two Star Dou Great Forest overlords, the amplification produced by the two 100,000-year-old Spirit Beast sacrifice, are enough to make Tang San's spirit power jump five levels directly to the level of ninety.

"Tang San, Xiao Wu will be handed to you afterwards." The voices of Da Ming and Er Ming remembered in Tang San at the same time, the cold eyes of Tang San became hot, and at the moment when red light suddenly strengthened, two lines of tears remained at him Above his face. He certainly knows what the choice of the two great beasts is, he and Xiao Wu both know. But as the two great beasts said, they don't want their death to be worthless. Helping Xiao Wu resurrect is their last wish.

The red flame started to burn from Da Ming and Er Ming. It was not a flame, but a very special blood flame. And the burning of them is their blood, life and those 100,000 years of cultivation.

This is the second time that Tang San has accepted the sacrifice of 100,000 years of Spirit Beast. Although a long time has passed, at this time when he received the sacrifice of Da Ming and Er Ming, he could not help but remember the year. Xiao Wu Everything at the time of sacrifice.

Tang San's body can't move in the blood, but he said to them with his soul: "Da Ming, Er Ming, rest assured, I will help Xiao Wu resurrect and protect her with my life. At the same time, I will certainly take revenge for you, kill Bibi Dong and destroy Spirit Empire. "

The bodies of Da Ming and Er Ming have gradually faded. After listening to the words of Tang San, the eyes of the two big Forest King are filled with satisfaction. They certainly understand that this is a man's promise and Tang San will spare no effort to do it.

Blood flames are getting hotter and stronger, gradually changing from red to dark red, and the bodies of Da Ming and Er Ming also fade gradually during this transformation process, just like the increasingly transparent red crystal.

Da Ming's body fades first, all the reds expand into a huge ring and slowly shrink, slowly merging around him and Tang San's body. Bathed in the blood flames emerging from the two great beasts, Tang San constantly felt the feeling of numb itch throughout the body, and the dying feeling disappeared. spirit power, which was disturbed by broken arms in the body, was previously consumed by spirit power when fighting with Bibi Dong. At this time, it was surging in geometric multiples, and almost rushed through the barriers one after another.

But at this time, Tang San was not excited at all because of his spirit power promotion, but his heart was full of sorrow. This improvement of his strength was obtained through the sacrifices of Da Ming and Er Ming. If there is a choice, he never hopes to rely on this method to improve.

Da Ming, Er Ming, you go, I will avenge you. Spirit Empire, one more hatred between us.

Finally, the light on Da Ming completely faded away. A blood-red Right Arm Bone flew uncontrolled and flew to the broken arm of Tang San, which was inserted into the wound forcefully.

Da Ming's final voice reminded me of Tang San, "You are the best human I have ever met. In fact, both Er Ming and I like Xiao Wu. It is only because we are brothers that we do not want to hurt each other, so we are cheap. .Tang San, I use Spirit Bone and spirit ring to compensate you. Maybe you do n’t necessarily need to downgrade. So, we do n’t owe you. Do n’t forget your promise to protect Xiao Wu for us. At the moment you break your right arm, Already you are a brother ... "

"Da Ming ..." The tears of Tang San finally stayed, Da Ming's voice disappeared in weakness, his huge body had also turned into a cyan snake lying on the ground, the cyan light faded gradually, and disappeared. For a dead gray.

At this moment, Tang San's Blue Silver Emperor has emerged through the body, and there are also eight spirit rings: yellow, yellow, purple, black, red, red, red, and red. The huge **** halo formed by the energy of Da Ming slowly converged in the air, converging around the body of Tang San, and finally solidified in the final position.

Yes, under the joint sacrifice of Da Ming and Er Ming, spirit power of Tang San finally broke through the bottleneck of level 90 and was promoted to level Titled Douluo. The spirit ring converted by the Da Ming sacrifice also became his ninth spirit ring. Emperor in the forest, 100,000 years Sky Azure Bull Python ninth spirit ring.

At the same time, as the blood-red Right Arm Bone was inserted into the broken arm of Tang San, the energy caused by Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone of Tang San fluctuated sharply, layers of blue gold color halo surging, and the crystal blue light continued Circling around the wound, the muscles and meridians began to swiftly move around the blood-red Right Arm Bone, growing discernibly with the naked eye.

Titled Douluo level spirit power makes the Wildfire Burns Without End, Spring Wind Blows New Life skills of Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone fully displayed. The 100,000-year Spirit Bone technology requires Titled Douluo level spirit power to be fully excited.

Da Ming can be said to be the first strongest in Star Dou Great Forest. Although he is the same as the original Xiao Wu for 100,000 years, it can be imagined that his spirit ring and Spirit Bone quality must be above Xiao Wu. This is why he said that he did not owe Tang San. Even if Tang San loses Spirit Bone and all spirit ring, the two Spirit Bone and two hundred thousand years spirit ring with him and Er Ming can definitely make up most of it. After all, the lost spirit ring can be hunted again. It is not easy to find two 100,000 years spirit ring plus two 100,000 years Spirit Bone. When seeing the four hundred thousand years of spirit ring on Tang San, Da Ming has understood that Tang San resurrect Xiao Wu does not need to give all spirit ring to Xiao Wu.

The red flame on Er Ming is still burning, but it is much darker than before. The spirit power that can be given by the sacrifice has been injected into Tang San. If it is not as powerful as his and Da Ming, it would not be possible. Help Tang San to improve the five-level spirit power, and break through the most difficult ninety-level bottleneck.

Seeing that Tang San's right arm has grown back, the ninth spirit ring has also completed the fusion with Blue Silver Emperor. The low voice of Er Ming sounded, "It's my turn. Tang San, please don't tell Xiao Wu that my brother and I have liked her. We don't want her to be miserable. You should always make her happy and make her happy. I believe that you Be able to do this. If one day you really break through the hundred levels and become a god, then you will have the ability to unite our souls and release them from spirit ring, Spirit Bone for a short time. At that time, we will contact Xiao Wu again Get together. Also, the quality of your current spirit ring is too high, and you must not lose all to Xiao Wu, as it will have a counter-effect. In fact, we still owe you if your brother is wrong. If it was not your rescue today, we would even offer There is no chance to sacrifice. Take advantage of the skills we have given you. Love Xiao Wu and wish you happiness.

The blood flame aura expanded again. Looking at the soft eyes of Er Ming, Tang San clenched his teeth.

The **** halo fell on Tang San. Suddenly, Blue Silver Emperor quietly disappeared, and the nine haloes on his body also converged. In its place, the black Clear Sky Hammer appeared in front of Tang San, floating quietly there.

The dark golden lines on Clear Sky Hammer are flowing like mercury, it seems as if you already know that you will have your first spirit ring, looking forward to it in excitement.

The **** flames converge and become a huge spirit ring covering the bodies of Tang San and Er Ming. When the aura shrinks to only surround Tang San, the body of Er Ming has completely faded. red light finally solidified on Clear Sky Hammer. The **** light made the Clear Sky Hammer domineering breath thicker. The Slaughter God Domain inscribed on the hammer also emitted a white light at this moment. Let the blood color on this first aura infiltrate it, making Slaughter God Domain's A little **** luster was added to the white light.

Da Ming became the last spirit ring of Tang San Blue Silver Emperor, and Er Ming became the first spirit ring of Tang San Clear Sky Hammer. If the 100,000-year spirit ring appeared in the ninth place, then the 100,000-year spirit ring transformed by Er Ming and the first spirit ring on Clear Sky Hammer can be regarded as unprecedented.

Tang San has just reached the age of 25 this year, not only creating the record of the youngest Titled Douluo in history, but also creating the first Spirit spirit ring is 100,000 years of terrifying records. Although there is no one who has never come, there is absolutely no one before.

At the same time, Da Ming and Er Ming fully took into account the capabilities of Tang San during the sacrifice. The Da Ming has a long body and is similar to the single root form of Blue Silver Emperor of Tang San. Naturally, it is most suitable to become spirit ring of Blue Silver Emperor. Er Ming is known for its violence and strength. Meet the needs of Clear Sky Hammer. Tang San has never applied spirit ring to Clear Sky Hammer. He never even thought about it. The first spirit ring of Clear Sky Hammer was so powerful.

However, all this is not over. With the appearance of the first spirit ring of Clear Sky Hammer, a bright red Spirit Bone appears in front of Tang San as the Er Ming body becomes transparent and disappears. It's Left Arm Bone together. Although the sacrifice of Spirit Beast for 100,000 years will inject their souls into spirit ring and Spirit Bone, they can also decide how their own energy will form Spirit Bone during the sacrifice. Left Arm Bone and Right Arm Bone echo each other, and at the same time, Clear Sky Hammer of Tang San appeared on the left hand. Therefore, Er Ming chose to apply its own Spirit Bone on the left arm of Tang San.

The bright red Spirit Bone blends in instantly, unlike the soft but endless spirit power of Da Ming. When the Spirit Bone transformed by Er Ming and the left arm of Tang San are merged, the whole body of Tang San uses a feeling full of explosive power. Although there is no change in the surface of the left arm, the Tang San feels that its left arm seems to be expanding wirelessly, filling the arm with a strong feeling, and the meridians under the skin continue to squirm. At the same time, the two 100,000 years spirit ring The addition of Spirit Bone also made the Tang San's whole body crackle.

Whether it is spirit ring or Spirit Bone, it will increase the attributes of the body of the absorber, and 100,000 years spirit ring and 100,000 years Spirit Bone are undoubtedly the leader. Tang San already owns eight powerful spirit ring, and its body has been tempered by Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, which is quite powerful in innate attributes, surpassing the ordinary Titled Douluo. At this point, adding the two strong spirit ring and two big Spirit Bone, he suddenly felt like his body was about to burst.

The various attributes, mainly strength, have risen wildly, and the skin of Tang San has also become blood red. The meridians in the body have jumped, and the speed of blood circulation has been increased more than three times. Even mental force is moving at a rapid pace. With.

The energy absorbed by the human body into the body is of course a wonderful thing. It will enhance all aspects of your body. However, if the energy absorbed by the human body is too large, especially in the case of one-time absorption, then once it exceeds the range that the human body can bear, the result is absolutely terrible.

This is also an important reason why Tang Hao, the father of Grandmaster or Tang San, was found to warn him not to easily apply spirit ring to the second Spirit after Tang San was found to be twin spirits.

Tang San did not expect that his second Spirit just absorbed the first spirit ring and this kind of physical overload occurred. In fact, of course, this situation does not occur because of his poor ability to bear. On the contrary, it is because of the physical tolerance of Tang San that this situation has only now occurred.
