On the other side, Chu Hao and others naturally didn't know what happened to the Samsara Army. They were heading towards the underworld under the leadership of Ai O. As they got closer to the underworld, the land became more desolate, and there were still some occasional Wild animals have been truly extinct here, and even monsters can no longer be seen. According to Io, the only creature that can survive in the underworld is probably the monster three-headed dog. This is a kind of animal that can survive in the underworld. Monsters that rely on devouring souls to survive are called gatekeepers of the underworld by the world, but in fact they are monsters, not soldiers under Hades, and they are also the only life forms that survive near the underworld.
Along the way, when everyone was about to reach the Styx River, it was already night that day. Everyone set up a camp about ten kilometers away from the Styx River, then set fire to the camp, assigned sentry guards, etc. During this period, Pearl Hughes also took two hunter brothers to hunt down a three-headed hell dog cub, a two-headed hell dog with only two heads.
In fact, it is not entirely correct to say that it is a cub. In terms of age, this two-headed hell dog is indeed an adult. Even until it reaches old age and dies, it will not be able to grow a third head. This is related to its bloodline and strength. , maybe there are other deeper factors, I don’t know. It is said that many monsters, giant beasts, and even Warcraft have their own original ancestors. Those ancestors are said to be more powerful than gods, and their descendants inherit They have partial power and blood, but they are more or less incomplete. Not only the three-headed hell dog, but also Thunder Eagle, Hydra, etc. The strongest Hydra I have ever seen is just that. With seven complete heads, the strongest Thunder Eagle leader is only two and a half meters tall. The legendary Thunder Eagle ancestor stands seven or eight meters tall. He is covered in thunder and lightning, and can even cause thunder to fall. This legendary Thunder Eagle ancestor is The power is comparable to that of Zeus.
In the camp, Aio was talking to everyone about the rumors about these creatures that she knew, while Chu Hao was listening with interest. Although his expression still looked like I knew this, he still kept the information in his heart. It has been deeply remembered. This information may not be used now, but with the progress of the reincarnation world, it will always be useful in the future. Moreover, this information seems to contain some deep meaning.
While Aio was telling everyone the stories of these mythical and legendary creatures, dinner had been prepared. In addition to the godmother everyone brought, there was also the two-headed dog that they had hunted before. But then again, this two-headed dog The dog looked really curious, but the meat was extremely delicious, oily but not greasy, and it seemed to taste like the tenderest veal. When Chu Hao, Zhang Heng, and the few Samsara Army soldiers ate it, they It felt like the stomach was always hot. It was not painful, but there was a warm and comfortable feeling in the stomach. This also confirmed that this meat was indeed not ordinary meat.
Maybe eating the meat of legendary creatures like three-headed hell dogs and unicorns regularly can awaken fighting energy faster, which is much more convenient than staying in these high demonic planes for a long time.
Chu Hao said this very quietly, and only Zhang Heng next to him heard it. Zhang Heng immediately made a thief look and whispered: "You mean, eat more of these creatures?" Meat can have fighting spirit, the kind that is covered in golden light
It's just that Chu Hao said angrily: Just do the actions you should do normally. Don't become so obscene as soon as you whisper something, as if you want others to find out. I just mentioned a possibility, After all, we were all born and raised in a non-demon plane, and we have no chance to study the various attributes of the demonic plane, nor can we know the mechanism of awakening the inner strength of fighting energy, so we can only make inferences based on certain logical judgments. , the simplest logic is that the biggest difference between the non-demon and the demonic plane is whether there is aura, and the essence of aura is to allow living things and non-living things to absorb, thereby producing various changes in the demonic plane, such as internal force, such as Dou Qi, such as magic, or superpowers, etc. To put it simply, it is the absorption of spiritual energy, and how much spiritual energy is absorbed, which results in the difference between whether there are demons in the plane, and the difference between low demons and high demons. So to absorb, and What is absorbed faster than eating? So from a simple logic point of view, eating food from this world, especially eating high-magic food from this world, will definitely allow people to gain fighting spirit, internal power, or superpowers faster.
Zhang Heng suddenly realized and said: Oh, I understand, what you mean is that in the demonic plane where low demons begin, foodies are invincible, right
What you said makes so much sense, I was speechless and said angrily to Chu Hao.
good
Zhang Heng suddenly looked like he was trying hard, and then, with everyone watching, he walked directly to the campfire, gave Si a hind leg of the already cooked two-headed wolf, and then walked back to his place as if no one was watching. , and then began to chew and eat. By the way, the size of this two-headed wolf is not the size of a wolf on the earth. It can be directly called a giant wolf. The size is almost the same as the size of a cow on the earth. , so one hind leg is definitely not something that one person can eat.
Chu Hao was speechless to Zhang Heng. He was too lazy to care about the actions of this idiot and funny killer. He simply ate some dry food and then walked to the place where the Styx River was by himself. He planned to see this river with his own eyes. Styx, he is very interested in this world, no, it should be the existence of the world after death.
Since Chu Hao entered the world of reincarnation, he has frequently searched for knowledge and information on various myths, history, science fiction, ghosts, legends and folk songs from various places, and even virtual information, such as the SCP series, or Cthulhu Mythology series, etc., and as far as he knows, in many civilizations around the world, there is a river in the afterlife mentioned, and this river is generally the place where the souls of the dead arrive, such as in Chinese mythology The Nai River, the Santu River in Japanese mythology, or the Styx River in Western Greek mythology, etc. This is actually a very strange thing.
You must know that these civilizations had very few exchanges in ancient times. Some civilizations even had no exchanges at all and were distributed all over the earth. Under such circumstances, the same understanding of the afterlife was almost invariably produced. The description of the river, if this situation is a coincidence, it would be too much of a coincidence.
Styx
In the darkness, Chu Hao walked to the edge of the River Styx without any worries. In fact, he really had nothing to worry about. In this world, his strength may not be comparable to any of the gods. For some legendary creatures, it may There are also inferior ones. For example, he may not be able to match the Kraken, but for most creatures in this world, his strength is overwhelming. After possessing the godhead, his strength has reached a certain critical point, and He was quite clear about this, so he didn't have any worries along the way.
In this way, Chu Hao came to the edge of the Styx River easily. What he saw next was a river as vast as the sea. It was almost impossible to see the edge at a glance. You must know that Chu Hao's eyesight at this moment was not that of ordinary people. That kind, almost as long as it is visible to the eye, he can see almost as clearly as a telescope, and there is no obstacle to his vision at night. He can see at least dozens of kilometers away, and he still can't see clearly. The end of the River Styx.
There is no need to read any further. The River Styx has no end, at least from a physical perspective. Even if it is just a tributary of a tributary of the River Styx, it still has no end. You can actually put it This is seen as a small part of the external projection of a special plane called the River Styx, and what you see is just a small part of the projection of this special plane in this plane. The real River Styx exists. At a higher level, it is something that only a saint, or a god above the gods, can intuitively see and understand. If you must describe and explain it, then you might as well identify the Styx as a concept. A multiverse concept of certain beings, similar to beings such as the Abyss
When Chu Hao looked at this endless so-called river, a voice sounded behind him. He had heard this voice before. It was the voice of Hades, and it was also one of his main goals for coming this time. But let He felt that what was incredible and inexplicable was that this voice said words that should not have been said by Hades, so he immediately turned his head, and sure enough, Hades was standing behind him, and at this moment There are many differences between Hades and the treacherous Pluto in the movie. If we must describe it accurately, Hades at this moment seems to have a sense of vicissitudes and a kind of kindness.
See you again, my lord, Hao
Hades looked like an old man. He was smiling at the moment, but he kept talking. He continued: It is a very unexpected thing to be able to come here to meet you. The road sign went to the eye of the prehistoric sea. This resulted in a slight loophole in his monitoring, but I don't have much time. This loophole will be closed in fifty-seven seconds, so I will try to keep it short.
If you want to fulfill your great wish, then first you must get back your memory, at least part of it. Secondly, you cannot accomplish anything with your great wish and memory alone, so you must get back your power, your Memory and power are in the only surviving core fragment, in the Lonely Mountain, guarded by Bahamut's direct descendant, his youngest son Smaug, the red dragon. However, please remember that Smaug is the real body and not a projection. Although Its power and memory are also sealed, but in the only plane, it has the opportunity to unlock the seal. No matter what the circumstances, you must avoid this happening. Remember
Don’t believe too much in what you haven’t seen with your own eyes or what you have witnessed with your own eyes. No matter it is good or bad, good or evil, there is no absolute good or evil in this world.
Please try to consider any conversation or decision with Daobiao. Daobiao may be doing it for your own good, but as Daobiao himself, he often cannot help himself.
Finally, as my lord's subordinate, I just hope that my lord you can think about it again at the last moment. You have done too much for our clan. This matter does not actually require you to do this, so
But Hades' words only ended here. Suddenly, Chu Hao's eyes flashed with light, and he vaguely saw a black and yellow breath sweeping past. Then, Hades showed a confused expression, and then , he seemed to be taken aback, and he made a defensive movement and floated back dozens of meters away. At the same time, he looked at Chu Hao nervously and said: "What did you do to me? Why am I here?"
