Alien Queen

Chapter 8 Giant Clam and Ground Meat

You do things for me. If there is anything in the underworld, including the troubles other strong men bring to you, I will solve it for you...

Li Junshan naturally didn't know the dirty mind of the Heavenly King, but he still said in a cold voice: When I only had one super-level summoned beast, I was able to let the Withered Bone King rule the plane of the undead. I can also let you rule with your current strength. In the underworld, it is not impossible if you act well. But if you ruin my affairs or ignore me, no matter how big the underworld is, I will find you even if I search every inch of the land.

You wouldn't believe that in today's underworld, apart from the underworld demon, you are the strongest one, right? Li Junshan added another sentence after finishing speaking.

The King of Heaven immediately nodded respectfully and responded in a low voice: That's natural. The sizes of several continents in the underworld are not much smaller than those in the demon world and the light plane. What's more, there are also many powerful people who are independent from the world. Just like the Sea Clan of our Nether Clan, they just have no interest in the mainland, but the Sea Clan has exactly the 'giant clam' that adults need, which can produce a large number of magic crystal nuclei by absorbing elemental power, and the level is not low... …”

Giant clam?

When Li Junshan heard this, his heart suddenly moved: What is that? Don't clams produce pearls?

Ordinary clams produce pearls, but this giant clam, which is only found in our Nether Tribe and Sea Clan, can float on the sea and absorb various elemental powers - any elemental power except the fire element. It will condense magic crystal nuclei in the body. I heard that the largest giant clam owned by the Mylicia Empire, the largest sea clan in the Underworld, has a body diameter of more than a hundred meters. When the elemental power is abundant, it can be within half a year. A hundred holy-level crystal nuclei were condensed.

Is it that exaggerated?

Li Junshan was shocked when he heard that a giant clam could produce hundreds of holy crystal nuclei in a month. This was something Li Junshan couldn't imagine - in his memory, clams only produced pearls. stuff.

How dare you deceive your lord.

The more surprised Li Junshan was, the happier and more confident the King felt. His seemingly rough and majestic face was extremely respectful, and he hurriedly said to Li Junshan: This is all the truth. I am 100% sure that it is the truth. Because I originally had no interest in this kind of creature. I only occasionally heard people say that when the plane of light invaded our underworld, I took a fancy to this giant clam that could produce a large number of crystal nuclei. But later, I don’t know why it didn’t seem to succeed. .”

What kind of empire is there in that secret place? How many giant clams with a diameter of over a hundred meters are there?

Li Junshan suddenly felt that a large amount of energy bodies needed for the evolution of aliens were in his mental space. He was ecstatic in his heart, but his face regained his composure and asked lightly.

There's only one that's that big, but there are countless smaller ones.

The King of Heaven thought carefully, but gave a figure that in his opinion should be somewhat conservative: I have some friendship with the king of the Mylicia Empire. According to my understanding, the body diameter is about fifty or sixty meters. There are more than a thousand, and there are even more smaller ones. After all, as the adults have said, we in the underworld are not very concerned about things like magic crystal nuclei. There is a saying that the bottom of all sea areas in the underworld , it’s the same almost everywhere, if you are willing, you can find mountains of crystal nuclei in many places on the seabed.”

Piling up like a mountain

Li Junshan's breathing became heavy. He seemed to see himself on the seabed tens of thousands of miles deep in the underworld sea. Around him, crystal nuclei emitting light from various elements covered the entire ground, and there were a large number of greedy aliens. You can’t eat all the crystal cores no matter how much you eat.

Giant clams have a characteristic, that is, after the crystal nuclei are completely formed in their bodies in half a year, they will spit out those crystal nuclei. This kind of creature can only absorb the power of elements to produce crystal nuclei, but they do not know any magic attack methods. They will then Float to the surface and repeat this repetitive nature of life again until death.

The King of Heaven saw Li Junshan becoming more and more agitated and even a little excited. He was overjoyed and said: When the plane of light invaded the underworld thousands of years ago, it looted some crystal nuclei from various sea areas. This is recorded in the history of our sea clan. However, the area of ​​​​the sea area is far larger than that of the land. Not to mention that it was impossible for the Guangming Cult to plunder them all. Even if they cleared them all, the huge number of giant clams over the past ten thousand years has already vomited out many crystal cores...

When you get back, you can do this.

Li Junshan saw the dark maze entrance next to him from the corner of his eyes. The black hole like a giant eye calmed down his excitement. He looked at the King of Heaven intently and said: If this matter is done well, I promise you peace for the rest of your life. Wealth, at least in the underworld.”

Thank you, sir...

The King of Heaven could not suppress the surge of ecstasy on his face this time, but he immediately said with some hesitation: There should be no problem with the Mylicia Empire making friends with me, but I am not familiar with other sea tribes, so I can't guarantee...

Go and get in touch with them. I only want crystal nuclei...well...and including their giant clams that can produce crystal nuclei the most. If they are willing to cooperate, everything will be easy. If any empire does not cooperate...

At this point, Li Junshan stared at the Heavenly King, and then said after a moment: Erasing them from the sea of ​​the underworld or letting other sea empires annex them, different processes but the same fate, ask them which one they would like to choose.

Understood.

The excited king nodded heavily.

The underworld is different from other plane worlds. The Sea Clan, which also has environmental dependence and limited operations, may not be that powerful. The King of Heaven, who obviously prefers internal fighting more than participating in dangerous and terrifying plane wars, thinks of this sudden rise of a powerful and defiant person. The human summoner stood behind him, and he immediately felt that his waist was much straighter.

Do you have many space rings?

Li Junshan noticed a skull-like ring on the King's finger, but he estimated that it was a space ring.

Although none of our Nether Tribes can create space rings, some of the powerful people who died in our plane world during the plane war and the invasion of the light plane thousands of years ago have space rings...

The King of Heaven gestured at the ring between his fingers and said: I found this one from the corpse of a demon leader, but it's not much. At least I only have three. The other two were given to me back then. People under my command.”

Take this.

Li Junshan threw the ring with the largest space that he got from the Elf Garden of Alan Continent to the King of Heaven, and said: If I go through the maze, you can fill this space ring with crystal cores, even if not all of them are holy. Level 7, level 7 is also acceptable.

This is not difficult. The King looked very confident. He patted his chest and said, The first thing that you have been told by your Excellency, the King will definitely handle it for you.

I won't force my way into the maze. No matter how good the treasure is, it's not as valuable as my own life, so you don't have to worry about whether I might die in it and never come back.

Li Junshan changed the topic and said calmly: You go and do it now... Well, in three days at most, I will go to the Skeleton Continent where I met you and look for you again. Remember, it's only three days.

yes.

The King of Heaven bowed and saluted, and responded: If you just go to the Mylicia Empire, there won't be any conflicts. I believe that even if you don't go to Mylicia, you can find a large number of crystal nuclei as long as you find the habitat of the giant clam. , I will go back to the Skeleton Continent to find the Lord within two days at most.

Go ahead.

Li Junshan stopped talking nonsense and waved to the King of Heaven.

Be careful, sir.

As the King of Heaven spoke, he backed away dozens of meters, and then he flew up.

How about it?

The Alien Queen obviously heard about the crystal core, but it did not express any opinions. It felt its tidal spiritual power surging in the space. Li Junshan, whose soul was one, felt it very clearly. He couldn't help but ask Said: Did you find anything?

Same as what the man said.

The Alien Queen was silent for a long time, but after she recovered her mental power, she said: No wonder they said that they made a lot of marks while exploring the maze. Let alone going deeper, they couldn't even find the way back. This maze is quite deep. The place will change every once in a while, the original passage may become a wall or a ceiling, and the two marked walls may flip or become the ground, but this maze is constantly changing.”

I see.

Li Junshan put the matter of the crystal core aside, shook his head with a wry smile and said: No wonder the King of Heaven said that he has never really set foot in the deeper parts of the maze, but only lingered on the edge. It turns out that this is the case. He is. cautious.

Can you use telepathy to firmly control the changes in those channels?

Li Junshan suddenly said: Our souls can communicate and cooperate perfectly as one soul. If one person pays attention to half of the body, he should...

Three times.

The Alien Queen interrupted Li Junshan's voice and said: While you were talking to that person just now, most of the passages in the deeper parts of the maze have changed positions three times. We don't know what the most correct way to move is. Besides, there seems to be no pattern at all in the three changes, so how can it be possible to master them?

I don't know if the underworld demon has already entered? Or how he got in...

Li Junshan also knew that his idea just now was a bit too naive, but he was helpless after circling the entrance of the cave a few times. He smiled bitterly and said: We can't go in hastily, not to mention the possibility of walking too little and getting trapped by the ever-changing passages. If you can't get out, even if you are lucky enough to go deeper or even the deepest point, how can you resist the terrifying gravity squeeze?

The Alien Queen didn't speak, and it was obvious that she didn't have any good ideas.

Why don't you give up?

Just like what Li Junshan said before, no matter how important the treasure deep in the maze is, it is not as important as his own life. He thought for a long time before saying: I have thought about it for a long time, and I have come up with a way. Let the burrowing messenger drill down the maze all the way. Is there an ancient city here...

This approach won't work.

The Alien Queen rejected the idea that Li Junshan also thought was unfeasible, and said lightly: The changes are only in the deeper parts of the maze, which are probably tens of miles deep, but there is no change in the deeper parts. If there is something there, it should It is also in the center of the maze. There are not many burrowing messengers, and they cannot withstand the gravitational plunder, let alone the changes in the maze passages that may crush them into flesh in an instant.

Then I'll have to give up.

Li Junshan did not ignore some damage caused by unknown forces on the four walls at the entrance of the maze. He said: The mental power is not disturbed, but it is obviously impossible to tear down the maze violently. If that is possible, the powerful Nether clan This place has been destroyed long ago.”

It may not work.

The Alien Queen suddenly said something after a while. It turned to look at Li Junshan and said: Let that thing out.

what?

Li Junshan didn't understand, but he instantly sensed that the Alien Queen's mental power had locked onto the stake-like meat grinder rooted in the fungus carpet in his mental space. The meat grinder that day in the Demonic Mountain City suddenly appeared in his mind. The sight of roots or vines almost bursting half of the giant peak made me feel happy.

It was just a moment of joy. Li Junshan then shook his head and said: It is true that the power of the meat grinder is not based on the power of magical elements, but this weird life form, the vine root, may not be able to withstand the terrifying gravity in the maze. I guess Tanman As soon as I entered, I was crushed to pieces.

Its power is not based on the power of magical elements, and the power of my faith is also not based on the power of magical elements.

The Alien Queen said calmly: I want to give it a try.

Yes, then why don't you try to use the power of faith to destroy this maze? Li Junshan couldn't help but be overjoyed after hearing this.

not good.

The Alien Queen said: This maze is extremely huge. Let's not talk about whether it can be destroyed with the power of faith. Even if I can, I'm not sure that I can destroy it all the way to the deepest part. What's more, I have to be distracted by the gravity squeeze. There is no guarantee that it will be just right so as not to destroy the treasure you imagined deep in the maze.”

But having that thing is different.

The thing the Alien Queen was talking about was obviously a meat grinder. It went on to say: Just stand here and use the power of faith to protect part of its vines. I think it shouldn't be difficult. We just need to let it violently destroy it in one direction. Just a passage leading directly to the center will be enough.”

Then try it.

When Li Junshan heard that he didn't even have to go in, which meant he didn't have to take any risks, even if there was any damage, it would just be the cane sticking out of the meat grinder. He waved his hand in agreement excitedly.

However, a meat grinder that was five to six meters high and half a meter in diameter appeared in front of Li Junshan who jumped into the entrance of the maze. As usual, Li Junshan hit the ground of the cave with his palm, but the ground did not look like him. The imagination exploded.

This is the entrance that has already been disturbed by the power.

Shaking his head and smiling bitterly, Li Junshan simply took out a giant ax from the space ring and violently smashed open a knee-high tree hole. After the meat grinder walked in with its limbs covered with tree whiskers, he still wanted to speed up the destruction. Li Junshan took out a large bottle of the Moon Well Spring of Life holy water from the neutral plane elf queen from his space ring and poured a lot of it into it.

This kind of holy water does not mean holy as advertised by the light force. This kind of spring of life produced by the moon core, which is derived from the power of the source of life, can not only replenish mental power and magic power, but also the elves. Everywhere he goes, a large number of plants can be spawned to form a castle in the shortest possible time, all relying on this holy water.

The fact that the meat grinder can be summoned by Li Junshan shows that it has some commonalities with flesh-and-blood creatures, and its extremely special body and characteristics show that it also has some similarities with plants. Li Junshan has also experimented with it a long time ago. The holy spring water will make its explosive power and attack power much stronger.

Click...

After pouring almost half of the bottle, Li Junshan heard the sound of cracking on the stone ground under his feet. He saw that the cracks visible to the naked eye were rapidly expanding, and the hole he was in was about to collapse. He immediately flew out and hung in the air. beside the alien queen.

It's up to you.

Putting away most of the bottle of holy water, Li Junshan looked through the light of the crystal core suspended above his head, which was obviously dimmed due to the interference of some mysterious force in the maze. He saw that the crack on the ground at the entrance of the cave had now expanded by about half a meter, but it was not even close to that. Take a closer look...

With a boom, the entrance of the cave collapsed, and a large amount of gravel and stones were instantly buried by the meat grinder.

The cracking sound continued, and huge and terrifying cracks were opened on the four stone walls centered on the collapsed cave entrance. It was hard to imagine how the meat grinder did it, but Li Junshan could clearly sense it. The large amount of holy water poured on the meat grinder made the meat grinder fall into a state of extreme excitement and violence, just like a real life.

Completely letting go of his mind, Li Junshan's spiritual power in the form of a soul contract surged behind the meat grinder. At this moment, he seemed to have become the latter. He could only feel the countless thin vines protruding from his body. The vines expanded rapidly and cracked the hard stone ground. Immediately, the tiny vines and spikes that sprouted out pierced into the small cracks and expanded and cracked again...

Orderly and extremely fast, the Meat Grinder used this method to push its vines into the maze. It was invincible along the way, and the hard stone ground became the most dense as its flexible vines stretched and expanded. Fragile tofu.

This is just the entrance. I hope it can explode the stones, slabs and strips that make up the maze just like these rocks.

Thinking a little nervously, Li Junshan, whose mental power was firmly locked on the vines that were rapidly protruding from the meat grinder, felt that the vines of the meat grinder that were just growing in one direction suddenly disappeared, but they finally penetrated into the maze passage. among.
