My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! - Chapter 1448

[1439. Chapter 1418: Gambling scene, magic and curse!]

As a zone recognized by players as unsuitable for survival, the cover of night makes this place seem even more desolate and terrifying.

And in this forgotten corner, extending to the eastern border, lies a gloomy stone forest that no one has ever set foot in.

Here, it seems like we are prisoners of time.

It was eternally frozen in a gloomy moment, forming a sharp contrast with the vitality of the outside world.

Soon, the moon rose to the zenith.

Among the towering mountains that seemed like ancient giants, the moonlight began to cast mottled shadows.

But strangely enough, these lights and shadows did not stay on the ground, but merged into the surface like water and disappeared without a trace.

As light and shadow merged, a huge stone palace covering an area of several kilometers gradually emerged beneath the surface.

The lights outside the hall are bright and the warmth is melting.

The hall was filled with an eerie atmosphere, filled with dark energy.

Rays of light shot in from outside the hall. As soon as they came into contact with the turbulent black air, they could not help but be agitated and revealed their true forms.

There are minotaurs with bull heads and red eyes, there are old women with fox tails wearing human robes, and there are muscular men who look no different from humans.

Once hundreds of figures appeared, they quickly gathered and divided into three large groups and stood together.

There are also divisions within each large group, with three or five people often gathering in small groups and being hostile to each other.

If Soma were here, he would definitely find many familiar faces among these figures.

The five royal families who had disappeared for a long time were looking at the figures that were gathering around them with contempt, muttering something in their mouths.

There is a dwarf from all nations with an old face but a strange glow in his eyes. Surrounding him are figures that look no different from humans. His eyes are fixed on a figure lying on the ground not far away.

There are plague rats in the future ruins that almost wiped out the human race, emitting a pungent stench.

There was also a lion-man with black and white hair, standing in the corner with a sullen expression, seemingly not fitting in.

About ten minutes passed until no more light or shadow could blend into the palace.

The palace door opened with a bang, and a huge suction force came.

All the figures were sucked by the suction force and flew forward irresistibly.

They walked through a long corridor and came to a huge council hall.

The seats in the hall are arranged in a circle, with fifteen seats in each circle. It is divided into three areas, separated by aisles and painted in black, white and red respectively.

As the circles go up, the status is divided.

As the three major groups took their seats, an altar automatically rose in the central open space.

There was smoke from incense curling up on it, fruits and vegetables were laid out on plates as offerings, and in the center there was a blurry human figure with a face shrouded in green light.

Facing this portrait, the three groups stood up in unison as if they had a telepathic connection.

“Bow!”

An extremely strange thing happened. All the aliens actually lowered their bodies and bowed to the statue with their hands clasped.

In a flash, black air emanated from the bodies of many alien races and merged into the surface of the portraits.

The green light that was blocking the portrait’s face was instantly dispelled, revealing a handsome and calm face underneath.

It was Su Mo!

“Two bows!”

The aliens continued to bow down, and more black air swirled and clung to the body of the statue.

There were cracking sounds, and the statue could not bear the black air, and countless cracks appeared on its surface.

“Three bows!”

More black air gathered and bit towards the human statue like a black dragon.

With a loud bang, the statue shattered into countless powders and exploded on the altar.

Along with the smell of incense, the offering fruit plate turned into powder and scattered around.

Seeing this, all the aliens couldn’t help but reveal joy on their faces, as if they had finally got what they wanted.

But unfortunately, just when everyone was preparing to celebrate, all the scattered powders miraculously converged and merged into one again.

The green light that enveloped the statue’s face also climbed up again as the statue merged into one.

“What? How can this be restored?”

“We have been offering sacrifices for five days, but this old demon Su can still withstand the destructive impact!”

“That’s strange. Could it be that the World Cauldron he holds contains all these destructions?”

“Impossible! Our Lord God has issued a divine oracle that when the statue is shattered, the old demon Su will be killed!”

“Now the statue is broken, but it can be fused again. How can this be explained?”

“Why are you asking me? What is the purpose of your god? Do you want to ask the oracle?”

“How dare you insult my God? I think you are ready to die!”

“Don’t bark at me here. Go outside and see if I can peel off this snake skin of yours.”

“I think you have been frightened out of your mind by the old demon Su. Come on, let’s see whether you peel off my snake skin today or I peel off your bear skin!”

“You insulted my Snake brother, and you are against us. Let’s go. We must fight outside today!”

In the council hall, a dark aura filled the air during the worship, making it seem extremely eerie and scary.

But once the worship was over, it became like a vegetable market, with all kinds of conversations rumbling in the air.

Especially as the statue on the altar returned to its previous form, the soldiers in the back of the three major areas became noisy.

If there hadn’t been an aisle separating the two, and if the bigwigs in the parliament hall hadn’t spoken yet, I’m afraid a fight would have broken out on the spot.

“Stop arguing, or get out!”

The noise didn’t stop until Zhuhu, who was sitting in the first row of the red area, spoke.

“The Five-Day Sacrifice Method was obtained by the God Lord behind us at a great cost in exchange for the wandering gods of mankind. Since it has been handed over to us for use, its authenticity is naturally beyond doubt. However, the God Lord has stated many times that the specific effect depends on the current world environment and cannot be guaranteed to be effective.”

Zhuhu said in a deep voice that since he had suffered a big setback last time, the incarnation of the ancestor god had arrived and was killed.

The prestige of the five royal families has been weakened unprecedentedly. Now they even use the human methods that they previously looked down upon, and plan to use human methods to deal with humans.

However, the effect did not seem to be good. After five days of worship, it seemed to be showing results but it was back to square one again.

Is it possible that the current world environment is not suitable for using this method of breaking the sacrifice?
“Since the five-day method of breaking the sacrifice you requested is not effective, is it time for the method we requested?”

Opposite the red area held by the five royal families are the white areas where tall alien races gather.

These alien races had never participated in the first thirty-two game processes before, but because the external situation is now rapidly deteriorating and each tribe is scrambling for tickets to leave, they also chose to participate in the game in the Giant Mountain Star Region.

At this time, a white-haired monkey laughed, his words were extremely confident.

“What kind of magic do you have?” Zhuhu frowned.

“What we are asking for is the Seven-Day Nail Curse, which is also the method of human beings!”

“How did five days become seven?”

As soon as the monkey finished speaking, the square-faced man in the front row of the black area immediately asked back.

“Day after day, seven days of uselessness, isn’t that just another waste of time?”

“Human laws are different from ours. Time is set this way and cannot be changed.”

The monkey was not angry when being refuted, and continued to answer with a smile.

“This is getting more and more outrageous. If I were to try it this way, I wouldn’t be able to finish it even after two fights, right?”

The square-faced man frowned and looked towards the five royal families.

As expected, Zhuhu showed an embarrassed look, and it was obvious that he also had a lot of such human magic skills that he had exchanged.

“Can’t we use all these techniques together and kill him with several at the same time?”

“No, humans’ methods are different from ours, and they are mutually exclusive. The Lord God has said that if you use them rashly, you may end up in trouble.”

The ape and the cursed tiger said at the same time.

If we dig deep, we will find that no matter what methods humans and alien races use, the root of them is divine power.

But everyone has their own expertise, and the success rate of killing humans using human methods is definitely much higher than their methods.

It’s a pity that the five-day method of breaking the sacrifice failed, leaving everyone a little unsure.

If other methods requested are ineffective, wouldn’t it be a waste of time on useless efforts?

“If you ask me, why don’t we take over the Tianyuan territory of that old demon Su and put an end to it all.”

The square-faced figure thought about it again and again, and simply suggested.

It’s a pity that this proposal was sneered by not only the Curse Tiger and the Monkey, but also the other alien races in their black area.

It seems to be saying, I support your idea, but you have to go by yourself.

In the end, it was the monkeys who broke the deadlock.

“Since the rules of the game have been set, we should follow them. Otherwise, being killed on the spot is a small matter, but ruining the Lord God’s plan is a big matter.”

“Then isn’t our current method of breaking the sacrifice violating the rules of the game?”

The square-faced figure immediately sneered and asked back.

Before the version was updated, the game strictly prohibited fighting between humans and alien races.

Their behavior of harming Soma must be counted as a fight, and it is also a violation of the rules.

“That’s different. We are in this isolated palace. Unless Yugi’s real body comes to investigate, all news will be cut off.”

The most powerful of the five royal families, the Thunder Monkey, rumbled, and there seemed to be thunder as he spoke.

This isolation hall actually has a shielding function similar to the system.

It can circumvent the game’s detection to a certain extent, thereby performing some rule-breaking behaviors.

“But if you take any concrete actions outside the temple, you will be punished by the game immediately.”

“If you don’t understand the consequences of breaking the rules, just ask the Divine Master behind you.”

Neither this nor that works.

In a few seconds, the already difficult atmosphere in the field became even more depressing.

The fight is about to begin. In order to win, the aliens must ensure that all obstacles are removed before the fight begins.

And Soma is the biggest obstacle that bears the brunt.

“If we want to win now, we must first remove obstacles and eliminate the humans who pose a threat to us in advance.”

“Second, ” Lei Hou paused, “We must take advantage of the opportunity as much as possible and perfect the simulated first gambling scene, making it out of the realm of human expertise and suitable for us, so that we can gain the upper hand.”

In the first battle of Wanjing, the abilities of alien races were greatly restricted in a large number of survival scenarios.

This is limited by the Wanjing World, where there is too little scattered divine power to be absorbed and driven.

Especially the mysterious abilities that he relied on, only one tenth of their effectiveness could be exerted.

Beyond that, the rest happens to be what humans excel at, and there is no limit to the tools they can make.

“So for the first gambling fight, we must ensure that technology is ineffective or reduced in effectiveness. Divine arts and divine power are supreme!”

“Agree.” The old woman with a fox tail beside the monkey grinned and nodded on behalf of the white group that joined later.

What they excel at is exactly all kinds of divine arts, and creating an environment where divine arts are respected is just the right way to maximize their abilities.

On the other side, among the square-faced people, everyone had a mixed expression on their face.

Especially the short dwarf king, who couldn’t help but want to refute out loud.

Most of the people in the black camp are humanoid aliens, who are more or less related to human culture.

Including daily diet, weapons, and magic, they are all related to humans.

If theocracy is respected, it will not only weaken humans, but also weaken them in disguise.

“What about you guys?” Lei Hou’s eyes flashed with lightning as he looked at the square-faced man.

Fighting between humans and aliens is strictly prohibited, but the game does not prohibit fighting between aliens.

This also means that if there are conflicts of opinion now, a fight may break out at any time.

“I agree too.”

Being stared at by so many eyes, the square-faced man’s modified body emitted a faint fluorescence, but in the end he did not dare to refuse.

The power of non-divine systems, like technology, lies in the speed of development after they are expanded on a large scale.

For example, the dwarves of all nations will definitely not be afraid of the five royal families if they are given five years to develop.

But now it has been just over a year and less than two years, which is the time when the divine magic system is at its most powerful.

To refuse now would be to weaken the alien race’s most powerful ability.

But thinking of this, the square-faced man said loudly: “But don’t humans also have a route system and a similar divine inheritance? If their inheritance can be effective under the divine system, wouldn’t that be cutting off one’s own arm?”

“The route and heritage of mankind?”

Lei Hou seemed to have heard some huge joke and couldn’t help but sneer out loud.

“If we can’t defeat these humans with our divine magic system, then why bother betting and just surrender.”

“And you’ve also seen that these divine arts that we spent a lot of money to obtain from human gods can’t even kill an old demon like Su. So what are we afraid of human divine arts?”

“That’s right!” the monkey replied immediately.

“Since the game gives us the right to choose the first gambling battle scene, we should choose the scene that suits us best. As for how much ability humans can exert in this scene, that is their business. We can’t weaken ourselves just to weaken them, right?”

At this point in the meeting, it seemed that only the red and white sides were left singing the same tune.

Upon seeing this, the black aliens simply looked at each other and turned into pools of light and shadows, quickly disappearing in the conference hall.

“If they choose to withdraw, that’s the default. We can discuss it next.”

“It’s as it should be!”

at the same time.

“In addition to cursing and killing Old Demon Su, we should also send as many people as possible to investigate the area around Tianyuan Territory. If we can confirm that Old Demon Su is trapped in the world of nothingness, the first gambling fight will definitely be much easier.”

“Well, this matter should be left to the Demon Soul Clan.” Looking at the black party leaving, Curse Tiger pondered.

“But it doesn’t matter now. There is still a lot of time before the first gambling fight. We still have time to send people to get information. Besides, even if the old demon Su is still alive, it’s okay. At worst, we can use all our strength to win the gambling fight this time. When it comes to the third gambling fight, we can also complete the instructions of the Lord of God.”

“That’s right, but it would be better to win twice, so that the Lord God can give more rewards.”

The atmosphere in the venue was joyful.

The aliens in the front rows of both sides smiled at each other, and soon turned the topic back to the various spells they had exchanged, discussing the next curse to be used.

Only the black and white lion man sitting in the back row of the red team frowned slightly, and no one knew what he was thinking.
