The hot and violent dragon blood boiled in Lu Mingfei's blood vessels. Every moment his body was bearing the impact of the huge power in the dragon blood.
The intense pain stimulated Lu Mingfei's nerves, but he seemed numb.
Because the side effects of the fifth degree of blood violence devoured his spirit like a eclipse of the moon, the mental pain after he killed Herzog was like a heavy axe falling heavily on his soul.
Lu Mingfei roared silently, golden flames flowed in his eyes. Two blazing beams of light fell from his eyes, and thick steam immediately rose when they touched the sea surface.
Xia Mi saw that the muscles on Lu Mingfei's body were originally undulating like low mountains and rivers, and at this moment they suddenly bulged violently.
Every muscle fiber beneath the scales was as clear as a taut steel cable.
"Senior Brother, stay awake!" Xia Mi yelled and approached Lu Mingfei cautiously, but Lu Mingfei suddenly stretched out an arm to stop Xia Mi from getting closer.
"I'm fine," he rasped, his chest heaving violently.
That's him taking a deep breath.
While taking a deep breath, my heart beats like a bell.
Lu Mingfei slowly looked down at the sea, exhaling a ball of hot air in the mercury-like night.
"Herzog is not dead. The White King's genes have not completely transformed his body into a dragon. That is not his complete form." Layers of illusions began to appear in his mind, and the fifth degree of blood violence had begun to destroy Lu Mingfei's bottom line.
He gritted his teeth and refused to give in.
By quitting the bloodbath, you can be free from mental torture and will not continue to fall into the abyss.
But once he did this, he would completely lose the qualifications to stand on the god-level battlefield.
Xia Mi shuddered silently.
She also slowly looked towards the sea. At this moment, a huge shadow was rising from the deep sea in the black waves. The shadow was like a mountain rising towards the sea surface, and it was so narrow and long that it looked more like a mountain range.
Yamata no Orochi, Izanagi.
This monster is so huge, yet so silent.
It surfaced, and huge amounts of sea water parted from both sides of its body.
A dark white shadow sat on the crown of the head in the center of the Yamata no Orochi, pressing its torn right shoulder with its left hand.
Just as Lu Mingfei said, when Herzog was in danger of death, the White King's genes finally completely transformed his body.
He breathes in and out, and the world breathes in and out with him.
Majesty, unparalleled majesty emanates from the newborn Herzog.
But Xia Mi suddenly looked up at Lu Mingfei.
Her pupils contracted slightly.
Because in addition to majesty, she also felt another kind of aura, another kind of aura that she was very familiar with.
death.
A certain kind of absolute death was being infused into Herzog's body along with the power and authority of the White King. Infusion might not be entirely accurate, but to be more precise, the power and authority at the top of the world were awakening the deadly poison buried deep in Herzog's blood.
But that despicable villain was completely unaware of this. His face was full of resentment and his eyes were filled with greed and anger.
"How dare you stand above me!" Herzog let out a sharp roar. Lu Mingfei and Xia Mi immediately felt their whole bodies suppressed by an extremely powerful force, which pressed them down towards the sea!
The next second all the repression disappeared, because Herzog suddenly had a huge amount of blood flowing out of his mouth and nose.
He screamed in horror, and the blood vessels under the scales on his body protruded from the surface like a dense group of snakes.
The thief who stole the White King's power no longer cared about his enemies in the sky. He felt his whole body in panic, only to find that the power he had just gained was being lost at an incredible speed, and death was inevitably approaching.
He completely evolved into a dragon.
At the same time, the highly toxic "Cui Zhi Hun" began to take effect.
Chapter 429 Dragon Body
As expected, he had endured humiliation for decades just to ascend the throne. Even Lu Mingze found him a tough enemy. The fear of death following closely only crushed Herzog's will for a short time. But after his hysterical roar, he immediately calmed down. His resentful expression and golden eyes filled with hatred calmed down like a thousand-year-old cold pond.
"I understand. This is a deadly poison that cannot be replicated. It uses the bones and blood of the Supreme Nidhogg as a guide to destroy the elemental balance in the bodies of all pure-blooded dragons."
Herzog cut his wrist with his claws and watched the boiling blood that immediately reacted violently with the moist water in the air after flowing out of the veins. Thick smoke rose up, like the reaction when aqua regia dripped onto metal.
He inherited the White King's genes and power, and naturally also gained some of the memories of the god who once roared into the world.
He staggered alone above the head of the Yamata-no-Orochi, with a dark white breath of extreme cold emanating from his teeth. Extremely compressed elemental turbulence swirled around Herzog. Lightning, rainstorms, tornadoes, and dozens of dangerous domains were subconsciously stimulated from the surface of his body after the newborn White King felt the fear of death. The boundaries of the domains merged, and white-purple static electricity and dark red high-temperature fire streams swam on the edge of the air realm, like a dense group of snakes climbing on a spherical transparent glass cover, or like a towering tree growing on the cover with its roots reaching down to completely entangle the sphere.
The huge pressure swept in all directions like a torrent. In front of Herzog who had completely transformed into the Incomplete White King, even Xia Mi felt as if her heart was grabbed by the devil's claws.
The four monarchs had speculated how powerful the first Dragon King created by the Supreme was. Now Xia Mi knew.
Even though the White King is dead, the vessel created by the holy remains she left behind is comparable to the king on the throne.
Legend has it that Lucifer, dissatisfied with God's order for him to kneel before the Son of God, led one-third of the angels in heaven to rise up in rebellion in the northern border of heaven, intending to overthrow God. After three days of fighting in heaven, this rebel army that almost subverted heaven was defeated and expelled from heaven, falling in chaos for nine mornings and evenings before landing in hell.
The mixed-race academic community believes that this is because the predecessors who compiled the Bible wrote part of the history of the dragon clan into the mythology. Lucifer is God's most proud creation. God refers to the Black King, and Lucifer refers to the White King.
Being able to launch a rebellion that almost overthrew the Black King's rule and ended the Age of Gods single-handedly, it can be imagined that the White King's power must be far above the four monarchs. Perhaps only a supreme being like Hela who has never been born can be comparable to him in advance.
"Lu Mingze."
"What can I do for you, sir?" The little devil with scaly armor and wings on its back, like an illusion made up of light and shadow, suddenly appeared in front of Lu Mingfei.
This little fellow had a fawning face and a cunning look in his eyes. He looked as majestic as a king, but he was rubbing his hands in a servile manner.
"What's going on?" It was strange that when communicating with Lu Mingze, the torture and pain that was weighing on Lu Mingfei's mind actually disappeared.
The voice of Herzog, who kept whispering in his ear, was gradually suppressed, until finally only the sound of wind and tide remained between heaven and earth.
He felt relaxed all over, like a traveler walking in a scorching desert who suddenly saw a chilly oasis.
At this point, he no longer cared what the little devil was, nor did he speculate what kind of existence he was.
Since it's a crazy knife that can slay dragons when it goes crazy, it shouldn't be a big deal if it comes with a refreshing positive buff and a purification effect when summoning the devil.
"You said that before being parasitized by the Holy Relics, Yuan Zhisheng used the principal's folding knife to cut his own artery. The toxin that can kill the Dragon King should have completely entered Herzog's body during the blood exchange ceremony, right?"
In another world, the weapon Chu Zihang used to kill Xia Mi was Angé's folding knife. The blade of the weapon was tempered with a deadly poison called Emerald Mix, which took away the life of the King of Earth and Mountains in just a few minutes.
One of the twin kings of earth and mountain is certainly no match for the White King, but Herzog is by no means the complete emperor either.
How could a fake king resist the poison that could kill Jörmungandr, who was also a king?
But if he couldn't resist Cui Zhi Hun, why would I be like this now...
calm?
In this world, no one knows Herzog better than Lu Mingfei, except for himself.
He has such great ambitions that he stands on the dark side of the world and uses despicable means to steal the power and authority that would allow him to sit on the throne.
He thinks like a dragon and acts like a dragon. It seems that he has been preparing for the position long before he became the king, with all the etiquette, all the majesty, all the generosity... But if someone peels off the cruel, violent and even wise shell, they will find that Herzog's essence is still human. He possesses all the bad qualities of human beings, being mean and cowardly.
In another world, Lu Mingze once commented on Herzog, saying that he only had the appearance of a king, but had a lowly human heart in his chest.
When facing inevitable death, this kind of person should show panic and madness, not the calmness he showed at this moment. The resolute expression on his face made him look like a Communist Internationalist fighter who was at the end of his rope.
"He doesn't look like he's about to die. To me, he looks more like a mad nuclear physicist who has figured out controlled nuclear fusion." Lu Mingfei said.
The little devil showed a friendly and lovely smile on his face. "The doctor is a scientist. The knowledge in his head covers all the papers and topics published in the international journal Nature in the 1920 years between 2010 and 90. He is also an alchemy expert whose theoretical knowledge is probably not inferior to that of mentor Flamel. Such people are very confident and good at finding hope in desperate situations... In fact, for those dragons who have not personally experienced the poisonous Emerald Mix, things are not without hope - of course, that is just an illusion. In short, this poison was created thousands of years after the Age of Gods, and there is no relevant record in the White King's memory, so Herzog would think he can still be saved." As he spoke, he looked at the man slithering on top of the Yamata-no-Orochi, his molten gold eyes revealing a cold murderous intent.
"Can the White King's knowledge base help him solve such troubles?" Lu Mingfei asked.
"It's difficult." Lu Mingze curled his lips.
“Before he discovered the abnormality, the poison had already been sent to every muscle and tissue in his body by blood pressure several or even dozens of times higher than that of humans. Nidhogg’s cursed bones and blood burned in his body in an annihilating manner, destroying the organs and internal organs controlled by dragon genes… The balance of the four elements of wind, water, fire and earth will collapse first, resulting in Herzog no longer being able to use almost all of the Word Spirits. At the same time, the organs that are passively attached to the Word Spirits and do not conform to the laws of biological physiology will dry up at an incredible speed. Then the fifth element, which is independent of the four elements, will collapse. The spiritual element will be expelled from the poisoned person’s body. Expelled, the infected individual will completely collapse and fall apart soon after, like dust scattered around. This is because the bones of dragons, in addition to organic proteins and inorganic calcium and phosphorus, are also rich in the authority bestowed on this race by their ancestors, that is, those spiritual elements that can resonate with elements when chanting the Word of God. When the spiritual elements are expelled, their bones will collapse. Many years ago, Attila was able to preserve his body because he used his core to cocoon in time. The part of the spirit that belonged to the Dragon King in that body dropped to a certain threshold in a short period of time, and it could not even be identified as a pure-blooded dragon. "
Lu Mingfei has a good comprehension ability and he gets high marks in all the elective subjects he takes in the college.
"You mean the poison actually acts on the elements rather than on organs or tissues," he said.
"There was no one named Frederick Sanger among the Romans 1,600 years ago. Even the dragons had not yet developed the concept of genes, let alone genetic weapons targeting specific species." The little devil shrugged. "Dragons are keen on pursuing macroscopic power. They don't pay attention to things smaller than themselves. The essence of genetics, material science, and chemistry all fall into this category. So even though there was a glorious civilization on this planet relying on alchemy, no dragon has ever said, 'That's a small step for me, but a giant leap for dragons.'"
The arrogance of the dragon clan has prevented them from pushing their civilization into an industrial revolution in thousands and tens of thousands of years of history. Therefore, when they woke up from their slumber after entering the modern era that had already undergone several changes, it was always difficult for them to understand what was happening in the world.
"The poison targeting spiritual elements has a disadvantage. If the poisoned person transfers his nucleus in advance, the poison will not kill him." Lu Mingze said, "But the time Herzog took to become a dragon is even calculated in minutes. I think he didn't have the chance to leave his bone bottle behind."
Lu Mingfei breathed a sigh of relief, but he was still prepared to continue the fifth degree of blood burst until Herzog died completely.
The Yamata-no-Orochi is the failed product of the Holy Corpse's parasitism. It can be seen as a monster created by the White King's genes to protect itself. Although that thing is tricky, it is far less threatening than Herzog.
So in the current situation, Lu Mingfei was not prepared to kill the big snake himself.
"Okay, that's it, let's dismiss the court if nothing else." Lu Mingfei waved his hand, took a deep breath and prepared himself for the pain brought by the side effects of the fifth degree of blood burst.
Every appearance of the little devil is inevitably accompanied by the stopping of time in the real world, but this kind of time stopping does not mean that Lu Mingfei can do whatever he wants.
He had tried before to secretly eat the crispy chicken leg on Fingle's plate while he was alone, but his finger went straight through the chicken leg.
At the same time, the surfaces of the objects touched by Lu Mingfei began to ripple faintly, just like the interference ripples generated on the surface of the three-dimensional figure constructed by Norma when touching that figure.
"In fact, it's not absolutely impossible to survive, brother." The little devil suddenly showed a strange smile on his face.
"Remember what your chemistry teacher said when you were studying at Shilan Middle School? He said that talking about the toxicity of any synthetic substance without considering the dosage is just a hooliganism... If Herzog can hatch a huge dragon body in an instant, then he can use thousands or even tens of thousands of times the total amount of blood to dilute the toxicity of Emerald Mixture."
“How is that possible? Junior sister has already told me that hatching a huge dragon body is a huge burden even for the first generation. It takes a long time to prepare.” Lu Mingfei stretched lazily, pressed Lu Mingze’s head with his right hand with sharp claws, spun the little guy around, and then kicked him in the butt, sending him flying, leaving a trail in the surging clouds as if a jet plane had passed by.
It pauses and disappears.
Xia Mi spread her wings, and the golden glow from top to bottom repaired the luxurious red dress attached to her body.
In history, the only dragon king that Emerald Hun had actually killed was Fenrir, and Xia Mi's real identity was the Midgard Serpent Jörmungandr. She was Fenrir's sister and understood the properties of this poison better than anyone else.
Herzog's process of becoming a dragon is irreversible. Human genes are still making their last struggle, but this time, the human part that has always held the bottom line in the war of the DNA double helix structure will eventually fall apart in front of the ancient White King.
When the dragon part completely took over Herzog's body, that was when Cui Zhihun killed him.
The process has reached the final and slowest step.
But Xia Mi decided to pour a bucket of fuel into the blazing bonfire.
At the same time, red rays of light as bright as the sky were falling from all directions, and waves of raging tides were coming from every direction towards the sea where the Yamata no Orochi was.
The affected Herzog can no longer stop the other king from using the Word Spirit, so the King of Earth and Mountains dominates the world!
At the same time, a huge copper pillar broke out of the sea and rose into the sky!
From Lu Mingfei's perspective, that was clearly the Courtyard Snake that had appeared in an illusion created by the Yamata-no-Orochi not long ago and confronted the White King!
Its color is a chaotic iron blue, and its huge red-gold eyes are like stars burning in the sky.
