Chapter 100: Encountering Zhu Zhuyun in the City of Metals
Zheng Hu had no hope of poisoning the 50,000-year-old soul beast in front of him with just a poisonous weed.
He just wanted to poison the soul beast and reduce its strength.
With Zheng Hu's current combat power, he can easily defeat a soul master in the soul king realm. If he uses all his moves, the soul emperor can also win. However, he still has some reluctance against a strong soul saint.
The 50,000-year-old soul beast in front of him was just as powerful as a Soul Saint-level soul master. In order to defeat the opponent, Zheng Hu could only use poison to weaken the opponent's strength.
After the ice bear ate the poisonous weed, Zheng Hu closely observed the ice bear's expression to determine how effective the poison was.
When he saw the ice bear's body turning black and his face howling in pain, he knew that the poison was taking effect.
This is the time when Ice Bear's strength is at its most vulnerable. If you don't take action now, when will you wait?
He immediately jumped out and threw a [Snowball Bomb].
The [Snowball Bomb] was originally only over 10,000 years old, but after being strengthened with the ten-thousand-year-old soul ring fragments obtained from the [Soul Hunting Tower], this soul ring is already as old as 52,000 years.
The year has increased fivefold, and at the same time, the effects of the soul skills have also increased fivefold.
Originally, he could only create five [Snowball Bombs], but now, he can activate five at a time.
The power of these five [Snowball Bombs] covers a 50-meter radius, and can easily kill the Soul King and Soul Master, and can also cause a devastating blow to the Soul Emperor. As for the Soul Saint, if used properly, it can also hurt the opponent.
Five [Snowball Bombs] were thrown by him, and they all exploded on the ice bear.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
There were five loud bangs, and the ice bear's whole body was covered in blood from the bomb, and blood gurgled out.
The ice bear screamed, and it noticed Zheng Hu in front of it. In an instant, the pain made it lose its mind. It hit Zheng Hu crazily, and its bulky body indicated the power of the collision.
Brutal impact?
Zheng Hu thought this was its soul skill, and suddenly felt a little disappointed.
But then he had a doubt. Shouldn't a low-end attack method like brutal impact appear on a fifty-thousand-year-old soul beast?
Seeing the impact of the ice bear, he immediately stretched out the attached soul bone and the eight blue and silver spider spears. The spider spear kicked the ground and took his body into the air, dodged to the side, and temporarily avoided the impact of the ice bear.
However, at this moment, the ice bear's whole body flashed with white light, and the soul power in his body began to churn violently.
This is the prelude for the soul beast to use soul skills.
Then, Zheng Hu felt a gust of wind blowing up from all directions and attacking him. After a while, he felt that he was frozen into a piece of ice.
It turns out that this is the soul skill of this ice bear.
After seeing this soul skill, Zheng Hu was not surprised but happy. What he was happy about was that this soul skill seemed to be very useful.
It has both damage and control, and more importantly, it seems to be a large-scale group attack skill.
Simply perfect.
When the ice bear saw that its soul skill had frozen the human who poisoned it, it was overjoyed and immediately rushed towards Zheng Hu. Its teeth and claws were dancing, as if it was preparing to tear Zheng Hu into pieces.
Zheng Hu was content and unafraid in the ice. His martial spirit, Ice Sky Snow Girl, was its ancestor with the ice attribute. How could it be afraid of this little bit of ice?
As soon as he shuddered, the ice cube immediately shattered.
Then he saw that the ice bear was already charging towards him, and the face under the mask smiled slightly, and then he fully opened his fifth level domain and charged towards the ice bear.
Under the Blue Silver Domain, the Killing God Domain, the Killing Domain, the Slowing Domain, and the Gravity Control Domain, under the fifth domain, the ice bear's impact speed immediately became a turtle speed, and its movements became extremely slow.
While you are sick, I will kill you.
Zheng Hu was not a soft-hearted person. Taking this opportunity, he immediately used the [Emperor Sword], and an ice sword came out of the air and floated beside him.
Then, the ice sword quickly shot towards the ice bear like an arrow from the string.
Without any accident, the ice sword penetrated the ice bear's body, causing huge damage to the ice bear.
However, it is a 50,000-year-old soul beast after all, so it is no small matter. This little damage is not enough to kill it.
Zheng Hu then threw at it one after another [Frost Vortex], one after another [Snowball Bomb], and one after another [Ice Pick]. Under such attacks in turn, large areas of scars appeared on the ice bear's body. , and even exposed the dense bones inside.
After dozens of seconds, the ice bear broke free from its restraints. It let out a fierce yell, used up its last bit of soul power, and continued to charge towards Zheng Hu.
At this time, the toxicity in its whole body has exploded uncontrollably, and the blood flowing out is also a green color, which is a sign of deep poisoning.
What is reflected in it is that its physical strength has begun to be greatly weakened, and it has become somewhat unable to exert its energy.
Zheng Hu raised his palm and used [Emperor Palm] to give the ice bear the final blow.
Under the huge damage caused by the poison and [Emperor's Palm], the ice bear's internal organs were all shattered into pieces, and were corroded by the poisonous water to the point of melting. At this point, it finally let out a mournful cry, and its heavy body fell to the ground. , can’t get up.
As it died, a black soul ring slowly rose from its body and suspended above the ice bear's body.
It’s done, he successfully obtained the fourth soul ring.
The process seemed easier than he imagined.
Zheng Hu waved to the soul ring, then sat cross-legged and began to absorb the soul ring.
In just one stick of incense, Zheng Hu had already absorbed it.
With the absorption of the soul ring, Zheng Hu's level also reached level 42.
At this time, he was only a little over eight years old and had already reached level 40. If word of this spread, I am afraid that the entire Douluo Continent would go crazy.
However, this is not his final level yet. Because he has absorbed a hundred thousand year soul bone before, the experience value in his experience ball has already been filled up. If these experience points are added, his level will soar higher. level.
As the level increases, it means that his combat power also increases.
The most obvious change is that he has the fourth soul skill, Ice and Snow Wind, which has the effect of attracting icy winds from all directions and blowing against the enemy. These cold winds are extremely low-temperature and can blow the opponent into the sky and freeze the opponent at the same time. , causing the opponent to be temporarily incapacitated and suffer a certain degree of freezing damage.
A group skill that combines control, damage, and ice damage effects.
This skill is great for killing group monsters.
However, the age of this spirit ring is not too high, only fifty thousand years, which is less than the age of the [Snowball Bomb].
But this is not a problem for Zheng Hu. He can use the soul ring fragments to add the year of the fourth soul ring.
After absorbing the soul ring, Zheng Hu had nothing else to do.
Where will you go to practice next?
Zheng Hu suddenly thought that he could go to the Metal City to buy some materials to strengthen equipment and evolve hidden weapons.
The game world and the real world are synchronized, so items obtained in the game can also be used in reality, such as mounts...
At the same time, items purchased in reality can also be brought to the game for use.
Although the difference is that the attributes in the game and the attribute effects in reality will be different.
If Zheng Hu wants to strengthen his equipment and weapons, he needs to purchase a large amount of tungsten steel and magic crystals.
These items are not cheap in the game, and they are priceless and must be purchased with diamonds.
Zheng Hu is very poor in the game, but in Douluo World, he has accumulated a lot of soul coins over the years.
What's more, aren't there still hundreds of millions of soul coins left in the game?
In the game, soul coins are worthless, but if they are brought to this Douluo world, they can be a lot of wealth.
Taking them to the Metal Capital to buy materials would be a great experience. I'm afraid they could instantly enhance his equipment and weapons to the highest level.
The strengthening of equipment and weapons can not only increase the attribute bonus of equipment and weapons, strengthen them to a certain level, and even activate some specific skills, which will greatly increase the combat effectiveness of the soul master.
Although today's Zheng Hu is considered a super genius in the Douluo world, with amazing talents, in the Douluo online game, compared with those wealthy players, he is somewhat inferior.
Fortunately, he also has his own advantages, such as one person and one game server, and no one competes with him for resources. Another example is that he has a complete Douluo World, and you can find some in the Douluo World. It is difficult to explode in the game. out items.
After some thought, Zheng Hu decided to visit the metal capital.
The Metal Capital, also called Gengxin City, belongs to the Star Luo Empire. It is a settlement of blacksmiths. Lou Gao, one of the three great master craftsmen in the Douluo World, lives in Gengxin City.
Even so, Gengxin City is only one of the many main cities in the Star Luo Empire. It is not a famous city at all, and it is also in the middle and lower reaches among the main cities.
This is mainly because in Douluo Continent, soul masters are the most noble beings in the world. Other professions are not taken seriously, and the same is true for blacksmiths.
Zheng Hu wanted to go to Gengxin City, but it was not close and there were some troubles along the way.
The biggest trouble is that this is considered a cross-border journey, and there are border guards stationed between countries, so not everyone can cross it casually.
Of course, there is no way to go cross-border.
As mentioned before, the Star Dou Forest straddles the two empires and is in the middle of the two empires.
Among them, the northern part of the forest belongs to the Tiandou Empire, and the southern part of the forest belongs to the Star Luo Empire.
As long as Zheng Hu traverses the entire Star Dou Forest and goes south, he will be able to enter the territory of the Star Luo Empire.
There are no border guards stationed here.
The Star Dou Forest is very vast. Zheng Hu walked south along the depths of the forest and met many powerful spirit beasts along the way. Fortunately, he was not weak now. As long as he did not enter the center of the Star Dou Forest, Tianqing Lake Inside, his safety is still guaranteed.
After walking hard all the way, he finally entered the southern part of the Star Dou Forest and officially entered the territory of the Star Luo Empire.
Speaking of the Star Luo Empire, the first thing that came to Zheng Hu's mind was of course the Nether Civet.
However, according to time calculation, the girl should be about the same age as him now. She is only about eight years old, and she is still an ignorant child. Even if she meets him, what will happen?
It’s better to wait until everyone grows up before going to play with her.
As for now, business matters were important, and he wanted to rush to the Metal Capital as soon as possible.
The people of the Star Luo Empire were actually not much different from the people of the Tiandou Empire. They almost spoke the same language and wore similar clothes. When Zheng Hu entered them, there was no barrier at all.
Along the way, he met many soul masters from the Star Luo Empire who hunted soul beasts.
After traveling through the Star Luo Empire for almost half a month, he finally arrived at the gate of Gengxin City.
The entire city wall of Gengxin City is iron-gray, as if it is made of metal. People who come in and out of the city gate have a metallic aura about them.
After entering the city, the smell of metal became stronger, especially those buildings with the unique style of Gengxin City. The overall look was like iron knots, very strong.
Zheng Hu looked at these buildings and felt amazed.
The most numerous blacksmith shops in Gengxin City are over a thousand. At the same time, there are also some iron ore shops.
These iron ore shops specialize in selling freshly mined iron ore. Many blacksmith shops come here to buy iron ore and then refine the refined iron for use in forging various instruments.
Zheng Hu entered the iron ore shop. At this time, he was wearing a mask on his face, and by changing the length of his bones, his height had reached the level of a fifteen or six-year-old boy. It was impossible for ordinary people to see his actual age. .
Seeing Zheng Hu come in, a clerk immediately came over enthusiastically and asked, "Master, are you here to buy iron ore? Our iron ore is of the best quality in the entire Gengxin City."
Zheng Hu smiled slightly and said, "I'll take a look at it myself first."
Iron ore is divided into different levels in the game. Level 1 iron ore is the cheapest, and level 5 iron ore is the highest quality and also more expensive.
At least in his previous life, Zheng Hu had never obtained a piece of fifth-grade iron ore, which shows how rare it is.
Zheng Hu had systematic assistance, so he could tell the rough grade of the iron ore in front of him by casually glancing at it.
The only role of iron ore in the game is to strengthen hidden weapon equipment. The higher the level of the hidden weapon, the greater its lethality. At the same time, it also increases the player's attributes in various aspects, which can be regarded as PKing enemies in the game. An essential item.
He roughly calculated in his mind that if he wanted to strengthen his sleeve arrows to the maximum level, he would need about 1000 pieces of first-level iron ore, 500 pieces of second-level iron ore, 300 pieces of third-level iron ore, and 100 pieces of fourth-level iron ore. stone, and 1 piece of fifth-level iron ore.
Zheng Hu took a cursory glance at the entire iron ore shop. The iron ore inside was all within the scope of his needs, so he waved to the man and said lightly: "Man, all the iron ore here, I Want them all.”
When the man heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned. He thought he heard wrongly, so he couldn't help but repeat: "Young master just said that you want to buy all the iron ore?"
Zheng Hu nodded slightly and said, "Hurry up and pack them all up."
While he was speaking, a man and a woman walked in. The woman in the lead was only about fifteen years old, and she looked somewhat similar to Zhu Zhuqing...
