“First, I need you to hatch in your dragon form.”
Su Mo pinched the girl’s soft cheek and said simply.
“That is, the mythical form of Jormungandr, the Earthly Serpent. Only on this basis can we proceed to the next step.”
“alright, I got it.”
Miss Xia Mi nodded one after another.
Just transforming into a dragon body is not difficult for her.
“Are you sure you know?”
Su Mo expressed doubts about this and asked.
“Then let me ask you, how are you going to hatch it?”
“No need to ask – eh? That’s right! Enough food is needed for hatching, but it seems there is none now!”
Miss Xia Mi originally wanted to puff up her cheeks and ask Su Mo why he underestimated her, but before she could say anything, she suddenly remembered that the Dragon King needed a lot of food to hatch.
The form of the mortal python requires so much food that there is almost no upper limit. So far, Xia Mi has never truly obtained the complete mythical form.
“so what should I do now?”
The girl couldn’t help but look at Su Mo, instinctively feeling that he must have a solution.
“I came here to solve this problem, but I still need to confirm it.”
Su Mo didn’t show off either.
After explaining, he took Xia Mi to a place near Avalon.
The two of them stood on the water. The color of the sea under their feet had changed. The original blue-green water had turned into black.
The red rain in the sky is still falling, and the black tide under the feet is also rising. Under Nidhogg’s intervention, the planet’s biosphere is heading toward its end step by step.
“The Arctic Ocean is the sea area where sea levels are rising the fastest. As the natural womb that gave birth to Nidhogg, it can be said that it is also the first place to usher in the end. But the most dangerous places often contain the greatest opportunities.”
Saying this, Su Mo exerted his authority and with a wave of his hand, he parted the sea directly.
The vast sea surface seemed to have been dug out of the jelly in the center, leaving a piece of space directly open, revealing a huge sea bed.
The surrounding sea water sloped down like a waterfall, but not a drop dared to enter the realm that Su Mo had created. The so-called miracle of Moses dividing the sea, in the hands of Su Mo and Xia Mi today, is just as easy as snapping their fingers. things.
Therefore, Xia Mi quickly found what Su Mo really wanted to show.
“Is this… red tide?”
In front of the girl, the sea is like a cut layered cake or cocktail, showing a very obvious sense of layering.
There are four layers of sea water in total. The top and bottom layers of sea water are the most ordinary blue-green sea water, nothing special.
The second layer of seawater shows an ink-like black color. This is the so-called Kuroshio. The continuously thickening Kuroshio layer is the core cause of rising tides.
And under the Kuroshio, the red layer that is so firmly hidden by the Kuroshio that it can no longer be observed in satellite images is the component that once played an important role and carried Nidhogg’s will many times. layer.
Red tide!
Whether it is the red rain in the battle of the White King or the birth of the false god Patsy, there is the participation of the Crimson Tide behind it.
It can be said that the power of Crimson Tide is almost equivalent to the spokesperson of Nidhogg’s will.
so–
“What’s the use of this? Whether it’s red tide or black tide, aren’t they Nidhogg’s power?”
Miss Xia Mi asked this question.
“you sure?”
“Is not it?”
Miss Xia Mi was slightly startled.
“of course not.”
Su Mo shook his head and looked at the layered sea in front of him.
Neither red tide nor black tide is just sea water of different colors as the name suggests.
In fact, both tides are colored by eutrophic organisms. Both contain rich algae, organic matter, and even organisms. They contain extremely rich biological genes. Treat them as actual species. Gene pools are not a bad idea either.
As mentioned before, the red tide contains a large number of creatures carrying dragon genes. Its essence is actually connected with the underground river of the Akaki River, which is the amniotic fluid that breeds the dragon king.
The red tide can be understood as an exclusive gene pool dominated by dragon genes and supplemented by other biological genes. As the amniotic fluid that breeds Black King embryos, it will naturally obey the Black King’s orders.
Unlike the Red Tide, which is dominated by dragon genes, the Kuroshio focuses on being open to all rivers and embracing everything. As the amniotic fluid from which the tree of life was born, there is no obvious distinction between the primary and secondary in the Kuroshio. Whether it is dragon blood genes, Or ordinary biological genes, all are accepted without discrimination.
Those so-called beasts, whether they are king beasts or divine beasts, are all born from the black tide.
One is mainly based on dragon genes, and the other is inclusive of all things. This is the difference between the two.
“The red tide is the embodiment of Nidhogg’s will as the Black King and an extension of the power of the World Tree.”
“The Black Tide is the embodiment of Nidhogg’s evolved will and an extension of the power of the Tree of Life.”
“Nidhogg was indeed the master of the Red Tide, and is indeed the master of the Black Tide now, but this does not mean that he is the master of both at the same time.”
Su Mo smiled and explained very patiently.
The two seemingly similar trends actually represent completely different power systems.
After hearing this, Xia Mi finally understood what Su Mo meant, and his eyes immediately lit up.
“You are the one who controls the power of the Black King now…that is to say, you are the master of the Crimson Tide now?”
Yes! Before Nidhogg evolved, he controlled the Crimson Tide through his identity as the Black King. Now Su Mo is the Black King. Doesn’t that mean this is Su Mo’s scope of authority?
Although the realm of life belongs to Nidhogg, the boss of the dragons is now Su Mo!
“That’s true in theory.”
Su Mo nodded.
“But you still have to try it to find out. After all, although Nidhogg abandoned the World Tree, he did not completely abandon the dragon gene.”
Nidhogg, who has abandoned the World Tree, will inevitably have less control over the red tide, but it will not drop to zero.
Because, after breaking and re-establishing, he only abandoned the scope of authority. The advantages of dragon genes themselves were still dispersed and absorbed into the black tide by him, becoming one of the catalogs of life and the nourishment of the tree of life.
Now, from Su Mo’s perspective, all the creatures in the dark tide layer are filled with Nidhogg’s name, which can be said to be the manifestation of Nidhogg’s will.
As for the red tide layer, only the areas in contact with the black tide were infected with Nidhogg’s name, while the rest were filled with ordinary dragon-blooded creatures.
It is foreseeable that if there is no intervention, in less than two months, the black tide will completely swallow up the red tide and completely adopt it as its own nutrients.
If Su Mo hadn’t thought of this, he might have given away these advantages completely without realizing it.
By then, there will probably be nothing left to do.
But now, everything is still too late.
After saying that, Su Mo chanted the exclusive word spirit that belonged to the Black King and immediately started trying.
Under the emperor’s influence, the Crimson Tide soon began to resonate.
The most special thing about the dragon gene is that it has strong materiality and spirituality at the same time.
Under the call of the Black King, the ancestor of the dragon clan, the emperor’s domain covered the entire ocean, and all the red tides in the entire Arctic Ocean chose to surrender.
This process went smoother than Su Mo expected. Facing his call as the Lord of the World Tree, the interference of the Tree of Life was of no use.
The instinct of the dragon gene is to surrender to the strongest Dragon King. This was originally a biological mechanism set up by Nidhogg to ensure his status, but now it has become a disadvantage that hinders him.
Rather than being assimilated by the Life Catalog, dragon genes are more inclined to submit to the Ancient Dragon Emperor.
As a result, Su Mo quickly became the master of the Crimson Tide.
However, just as he had expected, Nidhogg’s counterattack began immediately after he successfully conquered the red tide.
The Kuroshio, which can accommodate all genes, is constantly devouring the Red Tide. Now, after realizing that the Red Tide is controlled by Su Mo, the speed of the Kuroshio’s erosion of the Red Tide has accelerated almost ten times.
In order to fight back against Su Mo, Nidhogg even delayed the breeding of the beasts and spent the energy he originally had on creating the divine beasts on eroding the red tide.
“Is this… urgent?”
A smile appeared on Su Mo’s lips.
Of course he knew that Nidhogg was not in a hurry, at least not very much.
Although the Red Tide and the Kuroshio Tide sound similar, they are actually very different in size.
The black tide contains the gene pool of all life on the entire planet from ancient times to the present, and its scale is large enough to cover the entire planet.
And what about red tide? It mainly only accumulated dragon genes and only appeared in a few sea areas. Even in these sea areas, it was overwhelmed by the black tide and was defeated.
In fact, even if Su Mo becomes the master of the Crimson Tide, even if Nidhogg leaves him alone, this power alone will not be enough to change three world-destroying crises.
However, Nidhogg was the one who knew how quickly Su Mo became stronger after all, and would not take any of Su Mo’s actions lightly.
The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength. No matter how small the advantage is, Nidhogg is not going to let Su Mo get it. Unlike Odin, he has no arrogant weakness.
This Nidhogg is obviously very strong but extremely cautious.
Faced with this kind of physical suppression, even Su Mo didn’t have any good way to deal with it.
but–
“Are you sure you want to give up the herd for the red tide?”
Su Mo raised his eyebrows slightly, conveying this news to the black tide in front of him.
In this regard, Kuroshio expressed silence. Nidhogg would not be affected by Su Mo’s two words. As long as it was an action that could establish his own advantage, he would not choose to give up.
Besides, he didn’t give up on the beasts, he just slowed down his evolution a little.
Seeing this, Su Mo was not impatient.
He immediately activated the authority of the Black King and activated the alchemy kingdom, [Life Creation], which has now reached the LV7 level.
As the authority of the ocean and water system, Life Creation is the part closest to the Tree of Life in the World Tree system. It can even be said that Nidhogg’s idea of creating the Tree of Life was derived from the power of the alchemical kingdom of [Life Creation]. sprouts growing out of.
The tree of life theory is not something that Nidhogg came up with out of thin air, but is the result of further development based on the study of life itself by the authority of the water element.
Although it is not as direct as the control of the tree of life theory, with the blessing of this alchemical kingdom, Su Mo can indeed greatly increase the corrosiveness of the red tide.
After the Kuroshio erodes the red tide, it will be eroded back by the red tide. Even if a dynamic balance cannot be formed, it can at least slow down the erosion of the Kuroshio.
When it comes to genetic manipulation, the World Tree is indeed inferior to the Tree of Life.
In the end, with Su Mo’s full intervention, the red tide was still eroded three times faster than before.
“Then should I start hatching now before the red tide starts to be devoured in large numbers?”
Noticing the confrontation between the red tide and the black tide in front of her, Miss Xia Mi couldn’t help but ask.
Although the scale of the red tide in front of her was enough for the Black King to give birth to a dragon body hundreds of times, she still felt a little unsure when she saw the speed of the black tide’s erosion.
“Not urgent.”
Su Mo shook his head.
“I have high expectations for you. It will take at least three days for you to hatch, so there is no need to rush.”
“More than three days?”
Miss Xia Mi doubted her ears.
With their current strength, they can hatch dragon bodies much faster than ordinary dragon kings.
Just like the pseudo-god Pasi had hatched a hundred-meter-level dragon body in almost half an hour, although he was not the completed Black King, the hatching speed had not been compromised.
As long as there is enough food, even Su Mo, the Black King, can hatch a mythical body within half an hour.
In the same way, Xia Mi can only hatch the dragon body faster, but now Su Mo actually said that it will take more than three days.
Thinking of this, Xia Mi finally realized something.
“Hey! Su Mo, do you really want me to hatch the kind of body that surrounds the atrium in mythology?”
The girl was shocked.
Only then did she understand why she had mastered so many dragon forms, but Su Mo had chosen the mortal python form.
Although the dragon body form does not affect the use of authority, Jörmungandr’s earthly python state does have one special feature, that is, there is no limit to this size. As long as there is enough food, you can be as long as you want.
The setting in the myth is not an exaggeration. As long as the conditions are sufficient, Xia Mi still has the ability to become the snake surrounding the atrium, even in the shameful state of being the Dragon King at the beginning.
The so-called “circling the atrium” means that the body is long enough to circle the earth.
Even in the entire history of the planet, there has never been such a huge life form.
“It only takes three days at most to hatch a prototype, but I do intend to let you reproduce this level of form. Anyway, with your cocooning skills, you can continue to grow in the future.”
Su Mo did not hide his intention, he admitted it directly and asked.
“Why, don’t you want to?”
“It’s not that I’m unwilling. Rather, I really want to try it if I have the chance.”
Miss Xia Mi shook her head, her eyes slightly excited.
She has always had the potential to develop into an earthly python, but this potential has never been realized because she has never had the opportunity to obtain enough food to hatch into a mythical form.
In the past, she had never thought that one day she could hatch into a mythical form and kill everyone. However, in dragon battles, body size does not equal combat power. Instead of becoming a huge living target, it is better to maintain a human form to facilitate escape, so for Xia For Mi, the human body shape is more familiar.
She naturally didn’t want to refuse this opportunity to realize her dream.
“However, these red tides are our last supplies. The more we use them, the less they will be. Rather than giving them to me, it would be more efficient for you to use them.”
The girl said very seriously.
The so-called talent of infinite growth is naturally possessed by the Black King as the origin of the Dragon Clan, but generally for the sake of mobility, the Dragon Kings generally prefer balance rather than excessive pursuit of body shape.
Although he didn’t quite know what Su Mo wanted to do, Su Mo could take advantage of this himself, and Xia Mi didn’t want to affect the overall situation by taking care of himself.
“No! The Black King’s power has other uses. I can only ask you to do this.”
Su Mo shook his head and emphasized this point again.
Seeing that Su Mo really didn’t take care of her specially and really needed her to play an important role, the girl readily accepted it.
Later, Su Mo taught Xia Mi how to use [Life Creation] and the power of the water element to delay the erosion of the black tide, and he opened a space door to the Pacific Ocean.
Before leaving, Su Mo said this.
“Nidhogg has been clinging to the red tide, and I’m going to scare him.”
