Chapter 617 The giant python of the world, the snake surrounding the atrium, the lord of the red tide

"First, I need you to hatch in the form of a dragon body."

Su Mo pinched the girl's soft cheek and said simply.

"That is, the mythical form of Jormungandr, the Earthly Serpent. Only on this basis can we proceed to the next step."

"alright, I got it."

Miss Xia Mi nodded one after another.

Just transforming into a dragon body is not difficult for her.

"Are you sure you know?"

Su Mo expressed doubts about this and asked.

"Then let me ask you, how are you going to hatch it?"

"No need to ask - eh? That's right! Enough food is needed for hatching, but it seems there is none now!"

Miss Xia Mi originally wanted to puff up her cheeks and ask Su Mo why he underestimated her, but before she could say anything, she suddenly remembered that the dragon king needed a lot of food to hatch.

The form of the mortal python requires so much food that there is almost no upper limit. So far, Xia Mi has never truly obtained the complete mythical form.

"so what should I do now?"

The girl couldn't help but look at Su Mo, instinctively feeling that he must have a solution.

"I came here to solve this problem, but I still need to confirm it."

Su Mo didn't show off either.

After explaining, he took Xia Mi to a place near Avalon.

The two of them stood on the water, and the color of the sea under their feet had changed. The original blue-green water had turned into black.

The red rain in the sky is still falling, and the black tide under the feet is also rising. Under Nidhogg's interference, the planet's biosphere is heading toward its end step by step.

"The Arctic Ocean is the sea area where sea levels are rising the fastest. As the natural womb that gave birth to Nidhogg, it can be said that it is also the first place to usher in the end. But the most dangerous places often contain the greatest opportunities."

Saying this, Su Mo exerted his authority and with a wave of his hand, he parted the sea directly.

The vast sea surface seemed to have been dug out of the jelly in the center, leaving a piece of space directly open, revealing a huge sea bed.

The surrounding sea water sloped down like a waterfall, but not a drop dared to enter the realm that Su Mo had opened. The so-called miracle of Moses dividing the sea, in the hands of Su Mo and Xia Mi today, is just as easy as snapping their fingers.

things.

Therefore, Xia Mi quickly found what Su Mo really wanted to show.

"Is this...red tide?"

In front of the girl, the sea is like a cut layered cake or cocktail, showing a very obvious sense of layering.

There are four layers of sea water in total. The top and bottom layers of sea water are the most ordinary blue-green sea water, nothing special.

The second layer of seawater shows an ink-like black color. This is the so-called Kuroshio. The continuously thickening Kuroshio layer is the core cause of rising tides.

And under the Kuroshio, the red layer that is so firmly hidden by the Kuroshio that it can no longer be observed in satellite images is the part that once played an important role and carried Nidhogg's will many times.

layer.

Red tide!

Whether it is the red rain in the battle of the White King or the birth of the false god Patsy, there is the participation of the Crimson Tide behind it.

It can be said that the power of Crimson Tide is almost equivalent to the spokesperson of Nidhogg's will.

so--

"What's the use of this? Whether it's red tide or black tide, aren't they Nidhogg's power?"

Miss Xia Mi asked this question.

"you sure?"

"Is not it?"

Miss Xia Mi was slightly startled.

"of course not."

Su Mo shook his head and looked at the layered sea in front of him.

Neither red tide nor black tide is just sea water of different colors as the name suggests.

In fact, both tides are colored by eutrophic organisms. Both contain rich algae, organic matter, and even organisms. They contain extremely rich biological genes. Treat them as actual species.

Gene pools are also possible.

As mentioned before, the red tide contains a large number of creatures carrying dragon genes. Its essence is actually connected to the underground river of the Akaki River, which is the amniotic fluid that breeds dragon kings.

The red tide can be understood as an exclusive gene pool dominated by dragon genes, supplemented by other biological genes. As the amniotic fluid that breeds Black King embryos, it will naturally obey the Black King's orders.

Unlike the Red Tide, which is dominated by dragon genes, the Kuroshio focuses on being open to all rivers and embracing everything. As the amniotic fluid from which the tree of life was born, there is no obvious distinction between the primary and secondary in the Kuroshio. Whether it is the dragon blood gene,

Or ordinary biological genes, all are accepted without discrimination.

Those so-called beasts, whether they are king beasts or divine beasts, are all born from the black tide.

One is mainly based on dragon genes, and the other is inclusive of all things. This is the difference between the two.

"The red tide is the embodiment of Nidhogg's will as the Black King and an extension of the power of the World Tree."

"The Black Tide is the embodiment of Nidhogg's evolved will and an extension of the power of the Tree of Life."

"Nidhogg was indeed the master of the red tide, and is indeed the master of the black tide now, but this does not mean that he is the master of both at the same time."

Su Mo smiled and explained very patiently.

The two seemingly similar trends actually represent completely different power systems.

After hearing this, Xia Mi finally understood what Su Mo meant, and his eyes immediately lit up.

"You are the one who controls the power of the Black King now...that is to say, you are the master of the Crimson Tide now?"

That's right! Before Nidhogg evolved, he controlled the Crimson Tide through his identity as the Black King. Now Su Mo is the Black King. Doesn't that mean this is Su Mo's scope of authority?

The realm of life belongs to Nidhogg, but the boss of the dragons is now Su Mo!

"That's true in theory."

Su Mo nodded.

"But you still have to try it to find out. After all, although Nidhogg abandoned the World Tree, he did not completely abandon the dragon gene."

Nidhogg, who has abandoned the World Tree, will inevitably have less control over the red tide, but it will not drop to zero.

Because, in breaking and re-establishing, he only abandoned the scope of authority. The advantages of dragon genes themselves were still dispersed and absorbed by him into the black tide, becoming one of the catalogs of life and the nourishment of the tree of life.

Now, from Su Mo's perspective, all the creatures in the black tide layer are filled with Nidhogg's name, which can be said to be the manifestation of Nidhogg's will now.

As for the red tide layer, only the areas in contact with the black tide were infected with Nidhogg's name, while the rest were filled with ordinary dragon-blooded creatures.

It is foreseeable that if there is no intervention, within two months, the black tide will completely swallow up the red tide and completely adopt it as its own nutrients.

If Su Mo hadn't thought of this, he might have given away these advantages completely without realizing it.

By that time, there will probably be nothing left to do.

But now, everything is still too late.

After saying that, Su Mo chanted the exclusive word spirit that belonged to the Black King and immediately started trying.

Under the emperor's influence, the red tide soon began to resonate.

The most special thing about the dragon gene is that it has strong materiality and spirituality at the same time.

Under the call of the Black King, the ancestor of the dragon clan, the emperor's domain covered the entire ocean, and all the red tides in the entire Arctic Ocean chose to surrender.

This process went more smoothly than Su Mo expected. Facing his call as the Lord of the World Tree, the interference of the Tree of Life was of no use.

The instinct of the dragon gene is to submit to the strongest Dragon King. This was originally a biological mechanism set up by Nidhogg to ensure his status, but now it has become a disadvantage that hinders him.

Rather than being assimilated by the Life Catalog, dragon genes are more inclined to submit to the Ancient Dragon Emperor.

As a result, Su Mo quickly became the master of the Crimson Tide.

However, just as he had expected, Nidhogg's counterattack began immediately after he successfully conquered the red tide.

The Kuroshio, which can accommodate all genes, is constantly devouring the Red Tide. Now, after realizing that the Red Tide is controlled by Su Mo, the speed of the Kuroshio's erosion of the Red Tide has accelerated almost ten times.

In order to fight back against Su Mo, Nidhogg even delayed the breeding of the beasts and spent the energy he originally had on creating divine beasts on eroding the red tide.

"Is this... urgent?"

A smile appeared on Su Mo's lips.

Of course he knew that Nidhogg was not in a hurry, at least not very much.

Although red tides and black tides sound similar, they are actually very different in size.

The black tide contains the gene pool of all life on the entire planet from ancient times to the present, and its scale is large enough to cover the entire planet.
