On January 20, 838, the center of the Central Black Forest was winter, but there was no snowfall.

In the center of the Mycrov continent, there is a primeval forest that accounts for nearly a quarter of the continent. The ancient magic mixed with the breath of chaos invades this land, making it fertile and exceedingly common sense. Because of this, the various plants and trees here grow so fast that it makes the scalp tingling, and countless monsters and dragon heads are also harboring this black forest, and can reproduce leisurely and freely.

The area of ​​the central black forest was much larger than it is now. Thousands of years ago, when the Starfall Age civilization first opened, four-fifths of the entire Mycrov continent were covered by it, and only a few areas with shelter maintained a normal order environment. Now, due to the continuous development, cutting down, and the reverse erosion of the chaotic magic of various races over the years, the Black Forest not only could no longer divide the four human gathering areas, but began to show obvious shrinkage.

But even so, the base of the Central Black Forest is more than any single human force, and even the entire territory of the Helgamos Empire in the north is incomparable.

Such a vast, primitive, full of monsters, and forests full of Era ruins everywhere. Since ancient times, it has been the main stage of various legends and adventure stories. Countless adventurers have come here to try when they were young, and many powerful people have also become famous here. Here, mercenaries once discovered ancient alchemy magic maps in the depths of the forest, and then became rich overnight. Some adventurers even discovered the temple of the ancient gods and achieved great success in one step.

It is even legend that the founder of the Far South Business Alliance discovered his first pot of gold from the Black Forest, so he had wealth that was as rich as a country and a force comparable to that of the country.

Now, there are a team of members of the Northern Empire's "Imperial Foreign Exploration Department" who are undergoing arduous training in the depths of this ancient black forest.

"Prist, I don't think training in this ghost place is of any use."

Deep in the central black forest, far away from the ground, among the bushes covered by the shadows of giant branches and leaves, five young men wearing camouflage uniforms and covered with traces of mud and sweat were lying quietly on the hanging branches, looking into the distance with a nervous expression.

They were wearing short knives around their waists and a helmet with goggles on their heads. There was a layer of dull magic talisman on their clothes that was arousing, weakening the presence of everyone. There was an inconspicuous dim crystal on their wrists. It was an information terminal that has been popularized among the top leaders of the empire in the past year.

Just now, someone in the team complained to his teammates through the information terminal: "The Seven Gods are here, and our external exploration department's mission is to explore the other world, rather than fighting wits and courage with a group of brainless beasts in the primeval forest, and lying on the branches to pretend to be a bird! Oh my God, do we look like birds!"

"Like a bird?"

"It's like a bird? Ah, this smell, I feel like I'm rotting."

"I smell bad all over, vomit!"

"Okay, you just have your mouth. The monsters here may not be less intelligent than you in terms of intelligence. They may also be able to detect the spiritual fluctuations of the terminal!"

In the center of the team, a young man who was vaguely captained, replied impatiently: "Continue to lurk, not far away, the last target, Polos pythons, should be the nest of the last target. As long as they determine their specific residence, even if this training is perfectly successful, we can return to the empire as soon as possible!"

The Polos python originated from the legendary monster "Uropolos" of the ancient times. Their ancestors transcended the essence of life of mortals and mastered the ability to convert basic matter. Therefore, they have a huge size comparable to mountains and an almost immortal super-speed regeneration power. As descendants of legendary creatures, they naturally have corresponding characteristics. Each Polos python has the strength close to the gold level after adulthood. If it is slightly stronger, it can have a body size of hundreds of meters long and ten meters wide and an extremely destructive power. They can convert the solid rock wall into soil, and then easily overturn a city.

The legendary giant beast Uropolos wandered among the forests, hit the gathering place of humans for unknown reasons, died at the hands of the second generation of the Saint Sword Envoy of the West Mountain. The snake bone became the skeleton of the Fortress of the West Mountain Tranton, but its descendants still reproduced deep in the central black forest and lived and were extremely nourishing. These mysterious giant beasts have a huge range of activities on weekdays, and even scholars who specialize in studying monsters find it difficult to determine their residence.

But now, after two consecutive months of tracking and exploration, they finally found the specific nest of the Polos giant pythons, a low hill in the center of the Black Forest. They only need to observe the giant pythons entering and leaving the hidden cave below the hill, so their mission can be said to be a complete success.

"To be honest... I still don't understand. The top leaders above asked us to determine the location and ecological habits of the 'Titan Dragonfly', 'Platinum Magic Vine' and 'Polos Python'."

Although Priest, who was the captain, was scolded by the observation process, because the observation process was too tense, some people could not suppress it, and they could only vent their pressure through complaining at the spiritual terminal: "Why do these gold and even the descendants of the extremely good-level legendary monsters need us, the exploration team that has not arrived at the gold level? This is the Black Forest! If we hadn't been lucky, we would have died many times long ago, right?"

"Otherwise, what is it called training, not outings."

In response to this, Prest, who came from the North Moldavia Championship Academy and had experienced hell training designed by a legendary strong man, couldn't help but feel speechless: "And it is precisely because the Black Forest is very dangerous that it has the value of training here. Otherwise, what should we do when we arrive at another world where the environment may be even more sinister?"

The five people lurking on the trees and waiting for an opportunity to observe the Polos pythons in the distant hill are the youngest elite team in the Empire's Foreign Exploration Department. Although the dialogue in the spiritual terminal seems to be inappropriate, during the three and a half months of Black Forest training, the five people perfectly completed each scheduled task. They successfully survived with their superb survival skills in the central area of ​​the Black Forest, which is known as "no gold will die once it enters", and successfully found the location of the mission targets Titan Dragonfly and Platinum Vines.

Prest was quite disregarded by his teammates' complaints. Most of the environment in the other world is unknown. Although the Empire's Foreign Exploration Department will try its best to choose a life-like world as its goal, it is because of life that is dangerous, and no one knows what the situation in the other world is.

In the Mycrov world, the most similar place to the other world is that it is infected by the chaotic magic. So far, forty percent of the area belongs to the unknown central black forest, followed by the bottomless abyss in the deep sea in the far south. It is said that it was really connected with the other world hundreds of years ago, and there were many strange creatures in the other world, and the sea abyss demon dragon was one of them.

What's more, as the captain, Prest clearly knows the real purpose of his group to explore various powerful monster gathering places in the Black Forest.

Why did the major forces in the Mycrov world not find a way to eradicate this primeval forest? There are many reasons. According to the explanation Priest heard in Moldavia, it is actually very simple, that is, the benefits brought by the Black Forest are greater than the losses brought by it.

If legendary powers all over the world join forces, they can definitely uproot the Black Forest and completely eradicate 80% of the Black Forest area within a year or even a few months. However, regardless of how much damage it will cause to the mainland during the period, how many elements will be exhausted by the legendary power mobilized by the magic power will cause. Those monsters living in the Black Forest, which are even hundreds of millions, and are more than human population, will undoubtedly riot and rush because their homes are destroyed. Even if only one-tenth of them impact the surrounding human towns, it will cause extremely terrifying losses.

The existence of the demon tide has indeed made all countries extremely distressed, but it can also bring extremely huge economic benefits. Countless fur, flesh and blood of monsters and magic materials are almost delivered to the door. There is no need for various forces to form a hunting team to capture them. The exploration of each adventure team can also stably produce precious resources within the forest, not to mention the various relics inside the Black Forest. Once adventurers gain from it, they will have extraordinary benefits, not to mention that their exploration team is just attracted by the special environment of the Black Forest, so they were sent here for training?

Compared with this huge interest, establishing fortresses and sending troops to guard each year is just a trivial matter.

But the laissez-faire towards the Black Forest is already a thing of the past.

Since the Star Fall of 722, there have been no large-scale changes in power in the world of Mycrov. Although there will be various small frictions between various countries and forces, such as the conflict between the Holy Mountain of the Far Sea and the White Tower of Guantian and the Fishman, the contradiction between the Seven Stars Council and the White Tower of Guantian, the war between the Northern Empire and the Orcs, and the internal struggles of countless kingdoms in the West Mountain, these frictions and wars have not affected the major situation and have not caused serious consequences such as the overturn and destruction of the country.

The stability of power represents the gradual acceleration of development. War and friction are also an accelerator of technological research and development. With year after year of investment and practice, the extraordinary power of the Mycrov civilization has become more and more advanced and powerful, and even to the point where it can crush monsters of the same level. In the 810th year of Star Descent, if the unexpected tide of demons, it would be difficult for the monsters to break even a fortress.

The benefits of the original fur and magic materials are gradually unable to meet the needs of civilization. In the exploration of the Black Forest, various forces have collected enough data. Now, when the Mycrov civilization is about to explore the void, the leaders of various forces have tacitly decided that it is time to clean up the wound left by the ancient chaos and turn it into the backyard of civilization.

And Prest and others are the advance teams that have discovered further situations.

"According to the news sent from the terminal, I heard that the dean would even personally take action to deal with hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of black forest areas and open up a large area of ​​the empire's territory!"

Recalling the vague hints from many news in the information terminal, Prest couldn't help feeling a little excited: "After the task is over, you might be able to see the scene where the dean takes action himself!"

At this moment, with the surrounding mountains and rivers swaying slightly, a black shadow suddenly bulged in the hidden cave under the hill observed by the exploration team, which made Prest and others subconsciously hold their breath. In an instant, under the illumination of the winter sun, the huge black shadow revealed its true shape. It was a black and red python covered with metal scales and a sharp and protruding head like a drill. Two pairs of large houses, vertically arranged snake eyes emitted golden light, and waves of energy visible to the naked eye scattered around the snake eyes, like ripples in the water.

That was the target of everyone, Polos Python! An extraordinary giant beast that lives underground all year round and develops by swallowing metal rocks! It seems that they are tracking right. This hill is the entrance and exit of the giant pythons on the ground. In an instant, the team members who were still complaining before all entered a state of high alert. They collectively activated the function of a special information terminal on their wrists, took videos from afar, and then teleported back to the headquarters of the Empire's Foreign Exploration Department far away.

And in the headquarters of the Empire's Foreign Exploration Department located in the imperial capital, the dean of Prest, Joshua van Radcliff, was in the living room and had a very ordinary meeting with Nostradamus.

"A few days ago, the Elf Town issued an important foreign traffic notice to the Empire. They complained that your body often passes through the most popular observation ports of the Elf Town, which affects them looking at the void and dazed."

The old mage held an information terminal in his left hand, and a light curtain floated on it. He slashed a few times and then found the notice at that time. He smiled and shook his head and said, "There are also complaints from researchers in the observatory. They said that there have always been an alarm about "massive void objects approaching the world of Mycrov quickly", but after the final investigation, he found that it was just a passing silver cocoon summoning the wandering ice element."

As he said that, the old mage clicked on the fairy card table in front of him with his other hand, summoning an elemental life with a full body of ice crystals, and the upper body is in human form.

"It can only be said that there are a lot of steel particles outside the Fairy Country. My body will automatically find the way. On weekdays, I spontaneously look for places with the largest concentration of particles to patrol."

In response, Qiao Xiu shook his head. He looked at the fairy card table in front of him, and then played a card: "Just treat it as a natural phenomenon, they will get used to... summoning pirate assault soldiers and directly attacking the players, and I use the curved blade to attack you directly."

The pirate assault soldier directly attacked the health mark of Nostradamus, causing it to appear in a red -3.

At this time, on the card table, there were already three creatures on the side of Joshua, each creature had the ability to directly attack the player in the turn or cause some direct damage. However, there was only one self-freezing ice element on the field, and the health was only 17 points left.

But Nostradamus didn't seem to care about this. He looked at Joshua happily and ended the round, and then said, "You have been too low-key recently. There are even rumors that you were seriously injured while exploring the void. Now you are hiding in the territory and will die if you accidentally."

"It's just a rumor. They also rumored that the nature mentor and the Elf Queen had a leg, and that Pope Eagle had seventeen illegitimate children."

In response, the warrior shrugged, not intending to waste too much energy on such boring rumors: "Not talking about the relationship between Galan Nord and Hernvalo IX, III, III, and IGEL's hard work, how can I get the time to create so many illegitimate children?"

There are all kinds of folk rumors, and there are all kinds of messy news, but one thing is true, that is, he has indeed been very low-key recently.

Since Joshua returned from the sacrificial grounds of the world and returned to Moldavia, he has been staying in the main city and has never left the north. He usually just skis the dragon and looks at the sea, takes a group of people at home to go out shopping, patrol the Winter Fort Academy, occasionally go to the abyss to see the scenery, catch a demon or two to ask about the situation in the sixth abyss, and lives a leisurely life.

Among them, there is indeed nothing happened recently. No further news has been heard from Karlis or deep space observations, and the vision on the Void Whirlpool cannot be changed in one or two months. Therefore, recently, Joshua has basically stayed in his own territory, and he is at ease to think about the power of his latest practice in his body to create a new material ability.

If the power of steel represents the origin of all matter and the essence of all known phenomena in the material world, then the power of fire is completely idealistic and can change the world with its own will.

The power of steel held by Joshua can simulate various extreme situations, such as degenerate armor, quasi-absolute smooth matter with infinite friction close to zero, mirrors that can reflect radiation light almost 100%... These special substances provide great help to the warriors' daily battles, and can help him adapt to various battles and environments.

The flame power from the power of the Soul Burning King can directly reverse the reality of destruction with the burning soul as the source, causing an extinguished world to rekindle the flames. Combined with the creative power of ancient dragons, it can even bring a world close to the end chaos back to order.

These two forces complement each other, and combined with the Soul Abyss held by Joshua himself, it is even more powerful, giving the warriors great confidence in countless battles. However, now, facing the legendary powerful man who also has all kinds of unique authority and even does not even have the power of physical laws, Joshua feels a little difficult, so he uses a small world that is being born in his body as the source and develops the ability to create some substance that does not conform to the usual theorem.

A world itself should be self-consistent, can exist stably and forever, while the various common sense theorems in each world are actually slightly different, just like the organs and circulatory systems in each different organism are different. The world does not seek perfection, as long as it can exist normally, it is enough.

How should its common sense theorem be determined in a newly born world? According to Joshua's experiments and speculations, it should be through the "order resonance" method between the worlds, similar to the collective opening of the creation phenomenon in the great vortex of the void. These worlds born around the Siberian world should have common sense theorems similar to the Siberian world. Similarly, the Karlis world around the Mycrov world also has a similar environment, and the races in the two worlds can even immigrate to each other.

If Joshua doesn't care about the small world in his body, then its internal theorems should become extremely similar to the Mycrov world, but if this is the case, there is no meaning. Therefore, Joshua, with the advantage of this newborn world, is his own body itself, added a special substance, a kind of thing to the new world.

But just adding such a substance makes the world's prototype on the verge of collapse, and Joshua stays for a long time and he also understands that such substances that completely transcend theorem of common sense in the ordinary world are extremely difficult to create, and every attempt is a subversion and challenge to the existing order.

But everything is worth it, because for Joshua, having such a super-light speed-level information exchange medium is enough to make him many times stronger than before!

Humans, or in other words, have an upper limit on the thinking speed of all living things, because the transmission of information is not instantaneous. Whether it is neural microcurrents, optical fibers, or multi-core joint thinking, the process of information transmission, acceptance, storage, and extraction requires corresponding time. Even the linkage between countless basic soul particles requires time. However, the upper limit of the thinking speed of ordinary living things is higher than that of the material brain.

Even the old pope who transformed into light, his thinking speed and information storage and extraction speed are nothing more than the speed of light. The amount of information that can be stored in a certain band of light waves is limited. Therefore, even legendary powerful people will have "unable to react" and "unpredictable" errors in extremely small time periods, "unexpected" and "not noticed" but the possibility of such errors is extremely small.

It is precisely because of this upper limit that too large biological reactions will become slow. If it is like the ultimate void beast, which is comparable to a super red giant, even if it attacks the other party, it will at most cause instinctive counterattacks in the relevant areas of the other party. Because of the overly bloated thinking system, its core thinking center cannot even accept and process the information it is attacked.

But if Joshua's thinking communication and information transmission medium become super-light speed level, then it can be said that his thinking speed and reaction speed can be improved without limit! Even if his body is huge enough to be comparable to a galaxy, as long as the super-light speed medium is enough, he can instantly react any information on the outermost periphery of his body! The larger his thinking organ, the faster his thinking speed. Joshua can even divide his thinking center into hundreds and thousands and place it in every corner of the multiverse, and he can still guarantee his thinking ability!

This is the horror of the super-light speed thinking medium. The unlimited increase in thinking speed will gradually turn Joshua into an existence beyond the ordinary material world. For the legendary strong man, it is also a momentary microscopic particle impact and splitting phenomenon, which is just slow motion for him... Of course, this is the most perfect situation, and in fact, this is impossible to accomplish in the short term.

Because this special super-light speed particle only exists in Qiao Xiuya's body, and the world in Qiao Xiuya's body has not yet been opened, the mass of his body is limited. Only after the opening and the world continues to expand can he have the ability to make a large number of such extraordinary particles and then rapidly improve his thinking speed.

However, now, Joshua can use this super-light speed information transmission ability to ensure that he can contact the family of the Mycrov world in real time and transmit information in the void and even the other end of the multiverse. In this way, unless the enemy also has quantum entanglement-level attack methods, no one can destroy the warriors in an instant.

As long as there is enough superluminal medium, he can even maintain information transmission all the time. Even if an incarnation is destroyed, his body can receive information like other incarnations.

At this time, Joshua and Nostradamus were still playing cards while chatting. The two began to talk about the removal plan of the Black Forest, which was the biggest move for major forces in recent times.

"Isrell means that in order to make the Black Forest an imperial farm that can safely produce various warcraft resources, others also want the Black Forest to become a back garden. If you want to achieve such a goal, you must suppress and eliminate all dangerous warcraft clans inside the Black Forest."

The old mage now has only 3 points of health left, and the creatures on the field have also been cleared. It can be said that they are in danger of being in the wind. In contrast, Joshua still has 20 points of life and has as many as five creatures on the field. He can directly defeat the old mage in the next round.

But Nochard Denmark seemed to be completely unwilling to care, and he smiled and said, "We will naturally feel at ease when you take action, but Joshua, I must remind you, don't kill too much, what we want is a safe black forest, not a piece of white land!"

"…Do I look so cruel?"

Joshua was speechless about this: "I always thought that I was a very kind-hearted and kind person with a sense of justice. How could I do a big destruction?"

In response to this, Nostradamus only said one word: "Ural Plain." Suddenly, Joshua could only sigh and ensure that he would not go too far. He accidentally washed the black forest on the edge of the empire into white ground. After all, in order to search for the Temple of the Mother Earth God, the earth-shaking Ural Plain stirred by the warriors has not yet recovered its ecological balance.

At this moment, a trace of information came from both of them. Joshua and Nostradamus were slightly stunned, and then they both learned the corresponding information through the information terminal.

"Have you found the gathering place of Polos pythons? Yes, so I can suppress it as soon as possible so that they will not notice the legendary aura and escape, causing great damage in vain."

The warrior's mouth raised, and he looked very satisfied with the efficiency of Prest and others: "The exploration team's cooperation is very tacit. I think they can try to explore the real void world."

"Well, that's true."

In response to this, Nostradamus clapped his hands with relief. Compared to Joshua, he was more happy with the growth of the younger generation: "These young people are just a little less accumulation and can achieve the golden realm. They are much faster than our generation."

"After all, the resources are much richer now than they were decades ago. The average height of the new generation of empire residents is 8 cm more than fifty years ago."

Joshua casually reported a number, and he reminded: "My turn is over, hurry up and play the cards or admit defeat."

"No hurry, no hurry."

Now the fees for both sides have reached 10 fees, and Nostradamus has only three cards left in his hand, there are no creatures on the field, and his health is only 3 points left, no matter how you look at it, it seems like you are going to lose. But the old mage still draws a card from the deck library slowly, and then smiles and says, "The victory and loss have just begun now. My turn, play cards."

Then, he played the card on the far right side of his hand!
To be continued...
