Chapter 672: The Swarm Kingdom! Mental Backlash!
“没想到你还有这样的手艺.”
Romantina praised Rico and thought she could be a chef.
"You don't know how many dark dishes Riko made during the six months on the fourth floor." The person who has the most say in Riko's cooking skills is the bunny girl.
I have to say, although the dishes made by Riko don’t look very good, not many of them are inedible, and they can basically fill the stomach.
After everyone had filled their stomachs, Zhou Qing saw Li Ke yawning, so he took out the soul guide alarm clock and said, "There should be no sun and moon rotation on this floor... It's already night."
"No wonder I'm so sleepy." Liko said, and yawned again.
"Then, let's find a place to rest. Once everyone has rested enough, we can continue on our journey."
Zhou Qing made the final decision.
Fortunately, there are quite a few petrified buildings on the first floor with large cavities inside, which serve as natural shelters.
Eight hours later.
After everyone woke up and ate some egg dragon eggs, they set out for the center of the sixth floor.
Or walk.
Rico and the others were enjoying the exploration and adventure of this level, while Zhou Qing and Romantina wanted to determine the resources on the sixth level so that they could find ways to develop and utilize them in the future.
But to Zhou Qing's disappointment, there seemed to be not many rare mineral resources in this layer. The land was quite barren, with only some strange low plants that could withstand high temperatures and strong light. However, the juices were very sweet and had an exceptionally high sugar content.
In addition, the only resources that can be considered are the egg dragons and their eggs that can be found everywhere.
Coupled with the high temperature and strong light along the way, everyone's interest was not high. Even Riko, who was very enthusiastic at the beginning, no longer had the interest in adventure.
However, to be rigorous, Zhou Qing delayed for two days before arriving at the central Zerg Kingdom.
As far as the eye can see, the area within a radius of fifty kilometers is covered with a thick black rock wall, covered with gullies of varying sizes and lengths. In addition, there is a pillar that penetrates from the top at a height of nearly two thousand meters. The whole thing looks like a pancake pierced by black chopsticks.
"Is the Swarm Kingdom in there?" Timitite said cautiously with trembling eyes, "It looks like a hornet's nest that fell on the ground."
"Don't be afraid, Timidite, I've been to the sixth floor..."
Just when everyone thought the bunny girl was new to the place, she smiled and said, "...but I've never been here before."
Rico: →_→
"Don't look at me like that. I was just trying to liven up the atmosphere. Just like Timitite guessed, at most I'll just get stung by a wasp."
"Some wasps can sting people to death!"
Zhou Qing said suddenly.
Among the soul beasts, there is a kind of soul beast named killer bee. It is rumored that it can sting to death a strong soul douluo level.
"I'll go in first!"
Approaching the rock wall outside the insect kingdom, Riko saw a transparent crystal. She bumped into it, but did not go in. Instead, she took two steps back and said with a dizzy head, "Huh? Isn't it the same energy film as the entrance to Nami Village?"
Zhou Qing went forward and knocked on it. He heard a "tapping" sound and carefully felt the slight vibration. He sniffed it and said, "The material is similar to colored glaze, but harder and has a light sweet smell. It may be something like specially processed beeswax."
"How do I get in then?"
Riko only knew that if she didn't actively attack the insect swarm, she wouldn't be attacked. But in this situation, if they wanted to get in, they would probably have to break through a hole to get out.
Isn't this going to cause a conflict with the insect swarm? "Let's look around first. The range of this insect swarm kingdom is indeed much larger than that of ordinary ants and bees, but their habits should be similar. They always need to find food from the outside world... I think those low-lying plants with high sugar content, those egg dragons, and the eggs they lay, may be the main food source of the insect swarm kingdom."
Zhou Qing analyzed, "There must be a passage leading to the inside."
"I come!"
Romantina's martial spirit possesses the body, and the first soul skill: mental detection is activated.
But at the moment of launch, the entire swarm of insects stopped their work for a moment, and an unparalleled mental power burst out.
Magnificent!
Pure!
Suddenly, Romantina’s eyes widened, her body straightened, and she fell backwards!
"Hey! Romantina!"
Zhou Qing hurriedly supported her and shouted, but Romantina did not come to her senses, and even the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm did not respond.
But after a careful examination, he was relieved to find that Romantina had just fainted and was not hurt.
But I couldn't help but lose my mind -
[No way! Even the spiritual power of the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm cannot be resisted? 】
For a moment, a drop of cold sweat dripped down Zhou Qing's cheek.
Even though the spiritual power just now was incredibly huge and pure, and was only directed at Romantina who dared to scan the entire kingdom, but based on his perception, even if it was only directed at Romantina and the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm and Ice Emperor in her sea of spirit, it should not have caused such an outrageous effect that even the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm could not withstand it... What kind of kingdom is this?
Dugu Bo, however, was sweating profusely, muttering, "Awesome! This thing is really amazing!"
"Old monster, what's going on?"
Zhou Qing asked immediately.
Although Dugu Bo's understanding of inner vision is far inferior to Zhou Qing's in terms of basic theory, he is a Titled Douluo after all, and perhaps he can perceive the phenomena that he, who is only at the Soul King level, currently ignores.
“Although the spiritual power just now was pure and majestic, it was also magnificent and vast, like a world.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Dugu Bo frowned again and changed the subject, saying, "But the strange thing is that that spiritual power does not seem to have an independent consciousness belonging to a certain existence. It is just a simple, pure spiritual power... To be honest, I think it may not be spiritual power."
Mental power is the embodiment of human active consciousness.
Without self-awareness, there can be no spiritual power! Even the soul master community, which has a weak cultivation theory, has a consensus on this point.
However, the Zerg Kingdom erupted with a spiritual force that did not contain any self-awareness.
Unbelievable!
"Pure spiritual power?"
Zhou Qing leaned Romantina against the black rock wall, gave her some water, and then looked at the huge insect kingdom with a thoughtful look.
"Is Sister Roman okay?" Riko asked worriedly.
"It's okay, but it may take seven or eight hours for her to wake up." After saying that, Zhou Qing carried Romantina on his back again and prepared to find a place to make plans.
After all, after Romantina used her mental power, she suffered backlash, which would inevitably alarm the insect swarm in the kingdom. In order to avoid unnecessary danger, it would be better to stay away from the limelight for the time being.
