Underworld Retrograde - #184 - Chapter 182 Extremely Cold Mountains

After seeing the action log of the Alpine Chamber of Commerce, Li Yelai and Xiao Kuang Wang looked at each other and understood the price of the Styx Horn.

It can indeed awaken the dead, but only if the body is well preserved.

If the brain is missing or has completely decayed, it will not be able to ‘wake up’.

The awakened dead will also turn into ashes and disappear completely after a period of time. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust

But what’s really outrageous is that the dead who wake up have consciousness before death. It is really possible to achieve a brief resurrection from the dead!

Even if it is only for a short time, it spans life and death and can bring the dead back again.

Li Yelai sighed and regretted in his heart. He really wanted to see his mother again, but the conditions at that time could only be cremated. If he had known that he would have frozen his mother’s body, would he have been able to see her again?

“Sure enough, there is no such fate.” Li Yelai sighed in his heart.

The horror of the horn has to do with the awakening of the dead.

If the corpses of strong men who died in battle can be preserved, they can be awakened if necessary.

Although this seems inhumane to outsiders, as a handler, I won’t care about this kind of thing.

The tasks that cannot be completed during our lifetime will be completed after our death!

If you are in a desperate situation, this is a trump card that can turn the tide of the battle.

This alone is valuable!

The price of using this horn is that, as the log says, the user will be gradually bewitched. As a psyker, after using it a few times, the user will want to sew the limbs of various creatures to himself. The body and the sewn limbs will become part of the user.

The grim-faced giant ape just stitched his body together step by step, and even found the hand bones of the Vast Supreme in the ruins of the city.

From this point of view, it should have the function of actively identifying the strength of corpses and searching for them.

The giant ape that was originally in one or two sleeps was killed by thunder from the sky when Li Ye came to his fourth sleep. This shows the terrible cost.

If left alone, it will continue to kill, piece together more corpses, and continue to grow.

If it is allowed to obtain the corpses of some powerful people, overlords, supremes, or even kings. I’m afraid no one in this world can fight against this kind of monster.

Fortunately, the environment in the abandoned city does not allow for growth of monsters. Even if this is a former battlefield, all the bones here will be annihilated.

“In the final analysis, this is an incident where a forbidden object went out of control.” Xiao Kuang Wang said: “So, the forbidden object must be under official control. Otherwise, various tragedies will occur.”

Li Yelai nodded, that was indeed the case.

This is also why the wilderness is dangerous, scavengers are so good at picking things up.

There are all kinds of materials in the abandoned city. If they pick up faulty technological artifacts, it means they will make a fortune.

But if you pick up some forbidden object from the corner. That’s a disaster.

This is the case for the Horn of Styx this time.

No matter which giant city you are in, for ordinary people, scavenging is the fastest way to make money.

This phenomenon cannot be eradicated.

Li Yelai accepted the diary and said to the Red Body Chamber of Commerce: “You have avenged your companions and received enough rewards. Then their bodies will be left to you for burial.”

Li Yelai pointed at the bodies of the people from the Alpine Chamber of Commerce.

“I know you scavengers don’t care about the corpse wilderness, but don’t let their corpses be desecrated by other animals.”

“Of course! Mr. Yejiang! I will bury them properly.” Xu Shi was already pleasantly surprised. Although he could not see the log, he gained a lot this time.

The remains of extraordinary creatures and the materials left behind by the Alpine Chamber of Commerce became his property. Even if they go back to Border City No. 3 now, their Red Dart Chamber of Commerce can make a lot of money. Of course there will be no comments.

Perhaps as a token of gratitude, when Li Yelai was about to leave, Xu Shi sent him gasoline as a reserve.

Li Yelai did not refuse and continued: “If you see something weird in the wilderness, don’t get close. You will die. If you encounter a similar situation again, directly notify the nearest giant city. Whether it is the city defense army or the security hall That’s fine. Otherwise, there will be a bigger disaster.”

“Yes, yes, yes.” Xu Shi nodded repeatedly, not sure whether he heard it or not.

Afterwards, Li Yelai and Xiao Kuangwang drove away.

On the vehicle, Li Yelai asked: “How to deal with the Styx Horn?”

The Horn of Styx is of great strategic significance, and as long as it is used properly, it can even turn the tide of the battle.

“Right now, I don’t have time to send it back to the giant city, so I’d better take it with me. It might be useful in the assassination of Mei Wu later.” Little Mad King said after thinking.

Li Yelai nodded slightly when he heard the words.

At present, the most important task is to assassinate human traitors.

Afterwards, Li Yelai followed Xiao Kuang Wang’s instructions and the map prepared by the official and galloped all the way.

After leaving the abandoned city, the roads in the wilderness have become increasingly steep. They have not been maintained for many years, and many roads have become completely abandoned.

Elevated structures collapsed, tunnels caved in, and roads cracked. This forced vehicles to drive only on rugged and steep paths.

Because, the distance to the restricted area is gradually approaching. Along the way, I didn’t see any gathering places or villages.

In the entire wilderness, traces of human life have completely disappeared. Even with Li Yelai’s eyesight, he couldn’t see any smoke.

Only wild beasts seem to be active in this land, and even wild beasts want to attack vehicles.

However, Li Yelai has the language of beasts in the virtual realm. He only needs to speak to make those beasts run away. Didn’t encounter any trouble.

However, as he continued to go deeper, Li Yelai would occasionally see traces of extraordinary creatures.

This means that the two of them have entered the radiation range of the restricted area.

“Have you seen those mountains?” Little Mad King pointed to the mountains in the distance: “That’s the outer area of ​​the restricted heaven realm, which is equivalent to the high wall of our giant city.”

The mountains are very conspicuous. This is not the original terrain of this land, but a boundary that only appeared after the restricted area was formed.

And further away, Li Yelai even saw the continuous snow-capped mountains.

“That snow mountain is also in the realm of heaven?” Li Yelai asked.

“Yeah. It’s quite special there.” Little Mad King explained: “You should know that the restricted area was transformed from the disaster fog.”

Li Yelai stepped on the accelerator, and the vehicle struggled to climb a huge steep slope. He also said: “After the disaster fog swallows up enough intelligent creatures, it will open up a new space, which is a restricted area.”

The restricted areas are all transformed from the disaster fog. The appearance of each restricted area means that it has swallowed up a considerable amount of human beings.

When enough humans are swallowed up by the mist, some kind of power will turn into rules and order.

This rule will silently transform the humans in it, making them infinitely close to the creatures in the restricted area, and eventually become vassals of the restricted area.

And if during that period, among the devoured humans, there was a strong person who could kill the mist master and destroy the rules of order in the forbidden area, then the forbidden area would not appear.

Just like the strongest human beings who once fought out of the mist, so did the old mad king. He and his comrades fought out of the mist.

And if the former Disaster Fog No. 71 continues to devour humans, it will also open up new spaces and turn into new restricted areas.

“Well, many powerful people were born among the humans who were devoured during the period when the Heaven Realm was still in the mist. Among them, there were even several supreme powerful people.”

The Little Mad King explained: “And there is the place where the last strength of human beings fights.”

“It’s a pity that they failed and failed to kill the master who had become the king. But their fight also permanently changed part of the landscape of the restricted area.”

“The temperature in that valley is extremely low, and it is called the Extremely Cold Mountains!”

“Even the psychic barrier will be frozen. It is a real restricted area of ​​life! Even the creatures in the restricted area dare not approach the snow-capped mountains. Creatures in the virtual realm will not really die, but if they are frozen, they will never see the light of day. “

“I see.” Li Yelai sighed regretfully: “If they succeed, there will be no heaven.”

“There is no need to regret, my teammates, their unfulfilled wishes will eventually be fulfilled by us.” Little Crazy King responded.

Li Yelai nodded and asked, “Then how far are we from the boundary of the restricted area?”

“If the car goes at full speed, there are still almost two days to go, but considering that there may be creatures in the restricted area moving around, we have to be careful and not rush in.” Xiao Kuang Wang responded.

When it got dark, Li Yelai, who had been driving all day, parked the car in an abandoned village.

You can drive overnight in the wilderness as long as you are not afraid of flipping over. But here, you have to figure it out slowly. The car lights are too conspicuous at night. It is easy to be targeted by some extraordinary creatures.

The abandoned town where Li Yelai stopped was no better than the big cities he encountered before, but at least it provided a place for the two of them to stay.

After stopping the vehicle, Li Yelai took out a barrel of gasoline from the trunk and filled the vehicle with gasoline.

The Little Mad King disappeared again, and Li Yelai was not surprised.

In order not to expose the fireworks, Li Yelai did not light a fire, but heated the food in the car.

Soon, a beautiful figure walked out of the shadows.

It was the missing little mad king, and she said: “I have checked the surroundings, and there are no extraordinary creatures worth noting. This place is still some distance from the boundary of the restricted area, so it is considered safe.”

“That would be easier.” Li Yelai said.

“Yes, but the weapons must be kept at your side.” Little Mad King reminded: “Some extraordinary creatures are good at night attacks.”

After eating some food, Little Crazy King took out a sleeping bag and blanket from the car and handed them to Li Ye and said, “Let’s take turns to keep watch. You go to bed first and I’ll keep watch.”

“Okay.” Li Yelai didn’t refuse. He had a bloody battle with the monster today and drove for more than ten hours.

Although, as a psyker, he was physically strong, he was also mentally exhausted.

After briefly washing up, I found a corner in the abandoned house and got into my sleeping bag.

Seeing Li Yelai accepting it so quickly, the Little Mad King was also a little dazed.

“It’s really strange.” She whispered. In the past, she had no fixed teammates to cooperate with.

When in dangerous areas, in most cases, she would hide herself in some dark corner and close her eyes to rest. Any slightest movement would wake her up instantly.

Even if you are cooperating with colleagues and having temporary teammates. Her teammates wouldn’t let her keep vigil either.

The curse of distrust prevents temporary teammates from entrusting their safety to her. Even in battle, temporary teammates will subconsciously be wary of her direction. Lest she backstab them.

This made her very painful as she had just become a psyker at that time. She thought that after becoming a psyker, she would be able to gain the trust of her companions. But it was paid by mistake after all.

At that time, she wanted to make changes. Make everyone willing to believe her. Counteract the cursed effects of that nightmare.

She worked hard to get promoted and faced powerful enemies single-handedly. Delivered a dazzling record.

Her status also gradually increased, second-level handler, third-level handler, night without charge, elite night without charge.

Even after becoming a captain-level powerhouse, it failed to change everyone’s concerns.

She has also become the only official captain who is strong at captain level but does not have her own team members or team captain.

Because she has always been alone, and who is willing to trust her? (The other person is naturally a doll.)

After a long period of pain, what comes is endless numbness.

But when she was completely numb, fate allowed her to finally find a teammate who trusted each other.

This made the little mad king a little surprised and a little helpless. If only I could show up sooner.

The doll is really lucky, the little mad king thought to himself.

The only dissatisfaction is that they are a little weaker in strength. If Li Yelai is also a captain-level expert, they can enter the restricted area and hunt down the traitors. When the time comes, it may be possible to kill an overlord.

“Little Crazy King, please, don’t look at me with that kind of hateful look.” Li Yelai in the sleeping bag yawned and complained: “You stare at me like this, I will be the next day.” You can’t sleep for five hours when you wake up, let alone sleep for six hours during dinner.”

The little mad king twitched the corner of his mouth and responded: “Good night then, teammate.”

“Well, good night.” Li Yelai fell asleep quickly.

The Little Crazy King lit a scented candle in the room, and fine smoke rose up, dispersing the smell of the two people and hiding their breath.

But Li Yelai saw a strange scene in his sleep. A vague voice seemed to be calling him, but it was definitely not Mr. Shadow. He was not so polite!

In the dream, in the fog, a blood-red figure emerged. Judging from the body shape, he seems to be a strong male. He was carrying a strange giant ax on his back.

At the same time, vague sounds came from the fog.

“Where? Come with me to please my lord and sacrifice blood to the blood god.”

Blood God? My lord? Damn it!

Li Yelai was shocked. Is this the bloody god?

Have you chased them all into your dreams? Are you so persistent?

Li Yelai would never forget that the other party wanted to twist him into the God’s Chosen, but he didn’t expect that the Blood God was still sending people to look for him. And, is it almost found?

Li Yelai thought for a moment and didn’t know how to speak.

He planned to wait until he returned to the giant city and let the officials arrange for the eight hundred swordsmen to be lured out. Should I say something first now?

However, Li Yelai soon escaped from the dream and was awakened.

The Little Mad King shook him to break him out of his dream.

“Is it time to change the shift?” Li Yelai sat up and patted his face to wake himself up.

The little mad king shook his head: “No, there is a situation.”

And on the other side, in some ruins in the wilderness. In a mysterious team, a strong man opened his eyes: “That person didn’t respond to me, but I have a vague feeling that he is near the boundary of heaven.”

“Is he a creature from the restricted area? Not a human from Border City No. 3?”

“Whoever it is, let’s go! We must take away the person our Lord has sent the oracle to!” (End of Chapter)
