Arctic.
A time maze.
At this point, Fang Sheng had already figured out the secret of the time labyrinth, but he did not leave.
The reason he didn't go out was because he had a premonition that Fang Si might be squatting at the entrance of the Time Maze.
Looking at the snow-white landscape before him, Fang Sheng narrowed his eyes.
"Based on the information he remembers, he should have at least one or two tracking immortal gu in his possession, so even if I came here through the void turbulence, it would be impossible for me to escape him."
As he pondered, Fang Sheng's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
For him, the current situation is actually a dead end.
After all, his strength could no longer increase significantly, and there were powerful enemies lurking outside the Time Labyrinth.
Even deep within the Time Labyrinth, if Fang Sheng remembered correctly, there should still be Nyx and others trapped inside.
Therefore, the current situation can be described as "besieged by wolves in front and tigers behind".
"With my own strength alone, unless I can use the ultimate move of Heaven and Earth to ambush him, I'm afraid I'll be beaten into a super jigsaw puzzle in a head-on fight."
Now, we can only hope that Lin Qiye's arrival can bring some turning point...
Although Fang Sheng felt heartbroken about the time wasted in the Time Maze, he also clearly understood that the current situation was not the time to worry about such things.
Sending Lin Qiye here may seem like a useless move, since Lin Qiye himself couldn't withstand a fatal blow.
But in reality, that's not the true meaning.
Bringing Lin Qiye here was both to have him participate in the war and not to have him participate in the war.
His main role is to lure An Qingyu over.
Fang Sheng understood that to deal with Fang Si, besides gathering a bunch of supreme beings to gang up on him, he had to find a way to get the three pillar gods of the Khrushchev system to entangle him.
Although Fang Sheng didn't understand why Fang Si had given him such complete memories of the God-Slaying World, he knew that for him now, only by making use of what he could and conserving what he could would he have a chance of survival when facing Fang Si.
As for An Qingyu, although he has not yet fully integrated with Yog-Sothoth and his strength has not reached the peak of Yog-Sothoth's combat power, Fang Sheng believes that he will definitely come.
After all, Lin Qiye has come, and given how much Yogsothos values the Gate of Truth, he will never let Lin Qiye take it away.
Thinking of this, Fang Sheng stopped staying in one place and started walking step by step.
This time, although he did not use Mao Min to test the rules of the maze again, he was able to walk through the maze as if it were flat ground.
Clearly, he had completely mastered the rules of the maze.
Although it would be impossible to find all the nodes in the time maze even if millions of people were involved, Fang Sheng doesn't need that many.
Having mastered the divine-level deduction technique, he had already figured out the place after wasting hundreds of thousands of people.
"Next, we still need to get the chips in our hands first..."
……
Meanwhile, just as Lin Qiye was heading to the Arctic, Ye Mengli and Jiaxin also set off for the Arctic.
They wanted to find Lin Qiye, but of course they couldn't go to the heart of the Great Xia to look for him, since the two of them were still wanted criminals in the Great Xia, and had even stolen some information from the Night Watchmen some time ago.
Because Jiaxin had helped Fang Sheng pass on information, she knew that Lin Qiye was likely to come to the Arctic, so they planned to intercept him on his way to the Arctic.
However, this time their first destination was not the Arctic, but rather they planned to go to Utopia first, and then travel to the Arctic.
On the way, as they walked, Ye Mengli gave Jiaxin instructions on the precautions for refining Gu.
"Sister Jiaxin, although our target Utopia has a top-tier expert in charge this time, as long as you can unleash the power of the Gu worms left by Brother Gu, then there is nothing to worry about."
After all, no matter how strong the memorial is, there is still a difference between immortals and mortals. Even if the ceiling is comparable to the main god's combat power, it is not necessarily possible to defeat you who have inherited all of Brother Gu's methods.
Aside from combat, what you need to focus on most is the art of Gu refining.
As she spoke, Ye Mengli seemed to have a bad memory, and took out a piece of paper covered with writing from the empty Gu and looked at it.
"According to our statistics, although there are quite a few people in Utopia, the number should not exceed 500,000 at most."
Therefore, considering that refining the Immortal Gu requires the labor of 100,000 people, we only have four or five chances to try.
Hearing Ye Mengli's words, Jiaxin nodded without saying a word.
She was naturally aware of what Ye Mengli was talking about.
Although Ye Mengli had taught her how to refine Gu for a long time, she still didn't have much confidence in refining immortal Gu herself.
However, lack of confidence does not mean you can refrain from doing it.
Whether it will work or not, we have to try.
……
Within the mist, the land, ravaged by the power of the Kleptomaniac, lies desolate and empty.
Compared to the desolate land, the azure ocean, with its roaring waves, exudes an even more terrifying aura.
However, at that very moment, a colossal ship, far beyond the comprehension of ordinary size, was sailing on the sea.
The entire exterior of this enormous ship is made up of pixels, and on that ship stands a pixelated city that resembles a kingdom.
As the waves rose, Jiaxin and Ye Mengli stood on the water, facing the wind.
Jiaxin looked at the ship in front of her and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
"Although I had read some records about utopia in the Night's Watch archives, seeing it in person was still amazing."
Ye Mengli nodded as well.
"That's true, but I wonder who exactly is the leader of the Shangxie Society, who single-handedly built this pixelated kingdom?"
As she spoke, a hint of apprehension flashed in Ye Mengli's eyes.
"Sister Jiaxin, you need to be extra careful later. Since she was able to build such a huge city, her ability to imprison the void must be incredibly strong."
Moreover, looking at these strange things, I always have a bad feeling.
"A bad feeling?" Jia Xin didn't react much to Ye Mengli's words, since it was normal for Ji Nianhui to be very strong.
However, she still frowned when she heard the ominous feeling.
"Mengli, what do you mean by this ominous feeling?"
Chapter 592 Entering Utopia.
Upon hearing Jiaxin's question, Ye Mengli considered it for a moment before answering.
“I always felt that her forbidden realm, like ours, seemed to have some kind of peculiar feeling.”
Hearing Ye Mengli's words, Jiaxin narrowed her eyes. Although she didn't know what Ye Mengli's so-called strange feeling was, she became even more wary of Ji Nian.
“Let’s go. Even if she really did something wrong, we must proceed as planned in order to gather the necessary materials for refining the Gu.”
Ye Mengli nodded and, without further delay, flew into Utopia with Jiaxin under the cover of night.
In fact, Ye Mengli herself cannot fly. If she wants to fly, she needs to rely on Gu worms to do so.
Therefore, she is now being carried into utopia by Jiaxin.
Woohoo!
As the two entered Utopia, they immediately triggered the alarm system throughout the entire Utopia.
As the alarm sounded, a series of footsteps followed.
Seeing this, Jiaxin narrowed her eyes.
"It's best not to make loud noises in public places."
As she finished speaking, a translucent worm with faded oracle bone script-like tentacles and no eyes, its mouth closed like a slit, suddenly raised its head in her blessed land.
At the same time, a strange light emanated from Jiaxin's body, instantly sweeping across the entire world centered on her.
In an instant, the pixelated city, which had been filled with footsteps, shouts, and sirens, fell silent as if it had been submerged in water.
This Gu worm was one of the trump cards that Gu Li left for Jia Xin.
The Five Refinements of Gu Insects: The Master did not speak of them.
As everyone realized that no matter how they spoke, they couldn't make a sound, and no matter how they moved, they couldn't make a noise, they were immediately filled with horror.
Just as they were about to retaliate with their pixel weapons, another Gu worm appeared in Jiaxin's hand.
This worm resembles a twisted, multi-legged centipede, with fleshy, tumor-like eyes on its back and lightning-like patterns on its limbs and claws.
It exhales blue smoke that coils into strange shapes; touching it causes hallucinations and loud noises, and it becomes agitated and struggles wildly when it encounters regular objects.
This is precisely the kind of legalistic and superstitious practice that is associated with "What the Master did not speak of," and includes "strange phenomena, physical strength, disorder, and spirits."
If these two Gu worms are used separately, Zi Buyu has the ability to silence everything, while Guai Li Luan Shen will allow one to transform energy into the purest power and increase it by about two times.
However, once the two are combined, they can form a powerful, mortal-level killing move: "The Master did not speak of strange phenomena, physical prowess, disorder, or spirits."
The effect of this killing move is that within the range of her power, all extraordinary powers will be suppressed, leaving only the purest physical power.
At this moment, as everyone's supernatural power was suppressed, the pixel weapons in their hands instantly turned into wisps of green smoke and dissipated.
Suddenly, the Utopia guards, who had previously had an advantage in weapons and numbers, became lambs to the slaughter.
As they turned into ordinary people, Jiaxin activated the Fangyuan Two Gu to trap their bodies, while Ye Mengli threw them all into Jiaxin's blessed land.
Immediately, with the two working in perfect harmony, they quickly filled half of the population in the eastern part of Utopia City into the blessed land.
However, although they were very discreet, they were inevitably exposed later on.
After all, no matter how discreetly they tried to do it, the city would inevitably send out alarms due to the large number of missing people.
……
Utopia's main city, the headquarters of the Upper Evil Society.
Ring! Ring! Ring!
As the phone rang, the Shangxiehui security personnel on duty that day immediately answered it.
"Hey, this is the headquarters of the Shangxie Society."
The other party did not reply.
"Hello? Say something?"
There was still no sound.
Upon seeing this, the security guard frowned, glanced at his phone, and offered a reminder.
"No matter who you are, I want you to understand that under the new Utopia Law, maliciously making emergency calls is illegal, and your phone number and address are being monitored. Once we find you, you will face imprisonment."
Although the security personnel had made their point clear enough, no matter how much he inquired, the other party simply wouldn't answer, but stubbornly refused to hang up.
However, little did the security personnel know that on the other end of the phone, a PhD student in the laboratory was sweating profusely with anxiety.
His mouth kept opening and closing, but he couldn't make a sound.
His hands didn't stop either; he kept smashing everything around him, trying to get the sound of breaking things into the phone.
The doctor didn't know why the surroundings had suddenly become silent, but he knew that if he didn't send a message to the center of Utopia, the people in his area might be doomed.
Although it appeared that only a security guard from the Utopia Evil Society answered his call, in reality, his call went directly to the headquarters of the Evil Society.
This might be hard to understand, but it's much simpler to put it another way.
For example, when a small village was being attacked by terrorists, the village chief called the central government.
At this moment, although the doctor was still unable to make a sound, the guards of the Upper Evil Society were not fools and realized that something was wrong.
The security personnel gradually became more serious, and while answering the phone, they also started typing on the keyboard.
"You can't make a sound, is that right?"
no answer.
"Can I send a text message?"
Upon hearing the security personnel's words, the doctor on the other end of the phone gave a wry smile.
With his intelligence and education, how could he not have thought of using text messages to transmit information when he couldn't speak?
The reason I don't send it is because I can't send text messages either. Even when I type on my phone, I can only see what I'm typing; it can't be sent out at all.
