Chapter 299 The Ability of the Son of Heaven

  The three of Mu You walked on the streets of the city.

The layout of this city is very orderly. It is divided into countless areas by the square-shaped main road. In each area, many square streets are branched out. If you look at it from above, the layout of all streets and buildings , are regular squares, symmetrical to each other, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a work designed by a geometer with obsessive-compulsive disorder.

  In addition, the most conspicuous thing in the city are the piles of humanoid sculptures distributed among the buildings.

  These sculptures are not statues of gods or heroes, but ordinary residents who used to live in this city, dressed in simple or luxurious clothes, doing various jobs, full of fireworks.

  The only thing in common is that next to all the statues, there is a statue of a flying mount.

   This is not difficult to understand. After all, this is a city in the sky, floating in the sky all year round. The residents living here must have a flying mount.

   "Boss, which way are we going?" After resting for a while, Xiaoya's seasickness symptoms improved a lot, and she asked Mu You while looking around curiously.

   "According to the direction on the map, we have to go straight to the west now... But this is a mirror world, let's go to the east first to have a look..." Mu You thought for a while and said.

This place is said to be hidden in the 'reflection' of the Astral World. Since the map of Dawn City is in the normal direction compared to the evil spirit sea area of ​​the Astral World, the order of the maps should also be reversed after coming to this upside-down world. .

  The three of them headed straight towards the main road heading east.

  But after walking for a while, the three of them realized something was wrong.

   "Have you been to this place before?" Xiaoya looked at the rather familiar surroundings and asked with some uncertainty.

  The buildings in this place seem to be carved out of a mold, so there is a sense of déjà vu, so Xiaoya is not sure whether the too similar scene in front of her is the place she just passed by.

   "I have been here before, and the layout of the building ahead has changed." Lin Xue confirmed Xiaoya's guess and made some additions.

   "It seems that the buildings here are changing all the time... No wonder you need a map..."

Mu You sighed, and he has already discovered that the terrain here is like a moving maze, and each plot is constantly changing, so if you walk in one direction, you will only keep going around in a circle within a certain range , can never go out.

  This is also the meaning of the map: you must move in the specified order of the buildings marked on the map in order to get out of this maze.

   And if there is no map, you need to try one road after another until you find out the movement rules of the plot. If you are less lucky, it will take ten times more time to pass?

  Of course, compared to the map, the more troublesome thing is actually the no-fly area above the head.

  Mu You has already tried it, and the flying spell cannot be used here, and flying creatures like war eagles, as long as they are summoned, will be instantly killed by a strange energy.

  This locked the possibility of them observing the terrain from a high altitude.

   "Don't go, just wait here." Mu You shook his head, and resolutely gave up the idea of ​​continuing on his way.

  Instead of running around like a headless chicken, it is better to wait here for the emperor's people to appear, and then follow them to act, so that you can pass faster.

  The two of them had no objection, and then the three of them found a hidden place near the lake at the entrance and hid themselves.

  About ten minutes later, in the lake ahead, the water in the lake surged, and dozens of boats of various types floated to the surface one after another.

  The appearance of these ships is already dilapidated, and the hull structure is maintained by magic, otherwise it will fall apart in minutes.

   Soon, a large number of people came ashore one by one from the ship and gathered on the shore.

   "There are so many people..." Mu You was secretly speechless.

  At this moment, there are at least six to seven hundred people on the shore, and judging by the action patterns, at least two-thirds of them are the main body who came in through the door.

   Mu You is not surprised by this.

  According to the analysis data of a survey post on the previous forum, the existing 'doors' on the earth are basically evenly distributed according to the region. There are about 50 doors in every 10 million square kilometers.

  According to this rule, the total number of 'doors' on the earth should be around 2,500. However, because many doors appeared in the ocean and have not been discovered so far, the number of doors that have actually been mastered by humans is about 1,000.

  However, the major forces in the world have announced to the public that the total number of 'doors' confirmed to exist is only more than 300.

   That is to say, there are still quite a few doors that have not been announced. A few of them are doors that are in private hands like Mu You, but more are doors that are used by various forces as their trump cards and kept secret.

  For example, the dragon group, which claims to have only two doors on the surface, but the actual number must be far more than this number, and it is also possible to "borrow" doors from allied forces in an emergency. Mu You believes that if the country really needs it, it will not be difficult to lend double-digit loans at any time.

  This is also the reason why Mu You had previously revealed to the Blood Emperor that he had a door, but the Dragon Group and the Dissonance Bureau did not ask any questions afterward. On the one hand, because of the binding mechanism of the door, the identity of the person entering the door is basically locked; on the other hand, the door is really not a scarce resource for the real top forces.

  So Mu You is not at all surprised that a top ten power in the world, like the divine right of kings, can mobilize more than five doors.

   Closer to home, seeing the hundreds of people on the bank start to move mightily, moving towards the city, the three hurriedly and calmly followed behind.

There is also a very troublesome problem in this city, that is, non-fools will be rejected, so the remains of Vivienne and Grandma Lin Xue cannot be used here. It belongs to floating clouds.

  Now, I can only get up and grow wretchedly.

  A group of people in front of them are running fast in the city, along a winding road, the direction of travel is quite clear, this is the benefit of having a map.

  The three of Mu You didn't dare to get too close, and hung far behind.

  Fortunately, before Muyou, he used the monster thief skin to lock the fragment on the emperor's body. At this moment, he can feel the location of the fragment at any time, and will not lose it because the distance is too far.

  But just after following two streets, Mu You suddenly felt that the position of the fragment changed, and it turned to a new direction at a very fast speed.

   Mu You hurriedly caught up with the front and saw that the mighty crowd ahead was still advancing normally, but the fragment was taken by someone in a completely opposite direction.

   "The other side split up, probably realized that we were following, and moved the fragments away..." Mu You said.

   "Oh?" Lin Xue also quickly understood what the other party meant: This is forcing them to make a choice, chasing the debris or continuing to follow the main force, there is only one way to choose.

   "Which side are you chasing?" Lin Xue asked.

   "Shards!" Mu You made a decision without much hesitation.

  Of course he knew that the purpose of the person who took the fragments was to lure him away, and he would definitely not follow the map honestly, most of the time he took was a fork in the road.

   But no matter what, the shard itself is genuine. He has already snatched shard nine, and the other party only has 136 left. No matter which one he grabs, he can use it.

  As the three of Mu You walked away, there was complete silence near the entrance.

   But what neither side noticed was that shortly after everyone left, in the lake at the entrance, an octopus foot hundreds of meters long quietly floated to the surface.

   After struggling in the water for a few seconds, countless suction cups squirmed on the surface of the octopus' feet and swam towards the shore.

   After completely climbing ashore, a slit opened in the middle of the octopus' feet, and an eye grew out of it, shaking left and right, looking at the surrounding environment.

  After scanning for a few minutes, the octopus legs suddenly coiled up in place like a snake, squeezed inward frantically, squeezed into a ball of meat, and finally exploded suddenly, turning into countless small octopuses the size of palms.

  The densely packed octopuses are like maggots, piled up on the streets to form hills, and soon spread out in all directions, climbing towards all the streets in the city...

Mu You didn't know what happened at the entrance, and he was chasing the fragment with all his strength at the moment, because the expiration time of the appointment letter was approaching, he had to catch up with the other party as soon as possible to grab the fragment, and if it was not good enough, he would give a new appointment letter , remain locked.

   After chasing for more than 20 minutes, Mu You finally caught up with the figure in front of him.

  However, he was a little surprised by the scene that caught his eye.

   The only one carrying the fragments was a blond young man with blue eyes and no teammates around him, and the ID above his head was very clear: Son of Heaven.

  At this moment, the other party probably felt that they had taken them far enough away, so they didn't continue to run away, and stopped beside a stone carving, waiting for them to approach.

   Mu You approached and checked with the Omniscient Crystal.

  【The Proud Son of Heaven, Level 20 (Evolved): Strength 45, Dexterity 65, Intelligence 68, Constitution 51, HP 10500, Mana 8800, current skin: God of Words. 】

   Judging from this attribute, it should indeed be the emperor's body, not a clone.

   "I have to say, you are quite courageous, you dared to lead us here single-handedly." Mu You walked slowly, and Lin Xue walked to the other side with a sickle in hand.

  As for Xiaoya, her own combat power is too far behind, but she also holds a fragment in her hand to prevent being suppressed by human ranks, and immediately summoned a large number of summoned creatures for protection.

  The three of them gradually stood in a siege, blocking the opponent's retreat.

   "Because I need to confirm the strength of a few of them with my own eyes. Bringing other people here will interfere with my judgment." The emperor turned a blind eye to the actions of the three, and opened his mouth without changing his expression, quite honestly stating his purpose.

   "Oh? Then you're not afraid of playing off, and being left here completely by our two legendary ranks?" Mu You said.

   "I still have some confidence in saving my life."

  The Son of Heaven didn't say much, but he showed great confidence in his words: "Besides, I actually don't think that Your Excellency has reached the legendary level."

   "Then you guessed wrong, I'm really a legend!" Mu You said.

  The Son of Heaven had no intention of arguing. He took out a map fragment from his body and showed it to Mu You: "The fragment is here. If you have the ability, come and take it."

   Mu You rushed forward and launched an attack.

  The opponent made it clear that he wanted to verify his strength, so he was waiting for him to do it, but the fragments were already in front of him, so it was impossible not to grab them, so it was better to fight quickly.

  Muyou's magic wand moved in unison, and several wind blades were fired at the beginning.

   Facing the invisible wind blade, the Son of Heaven did not dodge or dodge, until he was about to hit, he suddenly said: "Obstacle!"

   "Bah bah..."

  Amidst a series of crisp collision sounds, the wind blade seemed to have hit some kind of invisible wall, and disappeared in front of the emperor without hurting him at all.

  Mu You didn't care either, and after making a move, he shook out of the Dark Realm on the spot.

  It is already late at night, and the bonus cost of the vampire skin is already close to the maximum. The use of the dark realm here is mainly to block the opponent's sight.

  The effect of the dark world, the closer to midnight it is released, the more powerful it is to deprive it of light.

  The sky was filled with pitch blackness, covering several miles around in an instant, and the area was completely in a state of being invisible.

  Mu Youlin Xue and Xiaoya all have night vision training from the forest elves, so they can ignore the darkness. This is an absolute home court advantage.

  However, before this home court advantage was brought into play, the three of them heard the encircled Son of Heaven utter a word clearly: "Light!"

  The body of the Son of Heaven was instantly illuminated by white light, but the light did not spread out, but formed a sphere with a radius of about three meters around him.

  The inside of the circle was as bright as day, but outside the circle, it was still pitch black.

  When the white light was on, Lin Xue's attack had arrived first, and the sickle slashed at the emperor from behind.

  The Son of Heaven seemed to have eyes behind his back, and when the tip of the knife was about to approach him, he uttered another word: "Flash."

  His body suddenly twisted into an incredible angle, narrowly avoiding the blade.

  Lin Xue slashed through the air, and at the same time as releasing her strength, she heard another word from the emperor: "needle!"

  Countless small bone spurs suddenly appeared around Lin Xue's body, piercing towards Lin Xue like ten thousand arrows piercing the heart.

   At this time, the escape route was blocked. No matter how fast Lin Xue was, it was too late to dodge. Because of the cooling effect, her scarlet cloak could only block one blow. Facing such intensive blows from such a wide range, she was most helpless.

   Fortunately, when the bone spur was about to hit, Mu You remotely supported a life barrier.

  The next second, countless white thorns pierced Lin Xue's body, and her life dropped rapidly. However, under the illuminated life barrier, she kept the last bit of life, and hurriedly exited the range of white light.

  The Son of Heaven did not chase out, but stayed in the center of the white light, looking around vigilantly.

   "Speaking spirit?"

   Mu You frowned. This person's fighting style made him realize that the skin name he saw just now, what is the "Speaking Spirit God Envoy", it seems that it really is the ability of speaking spirits, as long as he speaks it, it can be realized immediately.

  Of course, the actual effect is not that terrible, the opponent's speech ability obviously has a huge limit.

  First is scope. Judging from the spherical white light, the opponent's speech can only take effect within a radius of three meters.

  Secondly, speaking spirit also consumes mana, and the consumption is directly proportional to the content of the speaking spirit. The stronger the effect of the speaking spirit, the stronger the consumption. If the mana is not enough, it cannot be activated.

This is also why when Lin Xue entered the attack range of the emperor just now, the emperor did not directly say the words of letting her die, because the words of direct death are too outrageous, and the magic power consumed must have far exceeded his upper limit , so only ordinary attack methods can be used to indirectly complete the kill.

  The opponent's ability is scary at first glance, but since it has shortcomings, it is much easier to deal with.

  Mu You first tried to release a "throat lock tongue" towards the opponent. Since it is a "speech" spirit, as long as he is not allowed to speak, it is naturally the most direct way to target.

   Yan Ling couldn't dodge the directional spell of sealing the throat and locking the tongue, and hit it smoothly as soon as he made a move.

  But unexpectedly, a voice came from the side of the emperor: "Solution!"

   Then the effect of the throat lock was removed.

Mu You heard it clearly, the voice did not come from the mouth of the emperor, but from his body, probably some kind of magical vocal ability that can bypass the vocal cords, it is right to think about it, the other party knows his own shortcomings, and will definitely Make up in advance.

   "Don't get close to the opponent, use long-range attacks, and shoot with all your strength!"

  Mu You spoke to the two of them, and immediately launched an attack, firing fireballs and wind blades continuously.

  Since you can't stop the other party from speaking, you can only use it up. When you have magic power, the other party's ability is almost invincible, but as long as the magic power is exhausted, the speech spirit will naturally break down.
