Chapter 173 Outer Ring World

[The Immortal Curse] is a very evil inheritance that once caused a big disturbance in the outer ring world.

The Chris family was also exiled back to the inner ring world because of their involvement.

Chen Qi did not obtain the specific method of practicing the [Immortal Curse] in the resentment of Jomoya Chris.

Because this mysterious inheritance has been recorded in the blood of the Chris family.

Jomoya also obtained the qualification to practice the [Immortal Curse] because he awakened his family bloodline.

Of course, it is also because of this reason that he cannot awaken spiritually.

······

In fact, Jomoya's method of practicing the Immortal Curse is very simple, that is, burning the family bloodline, releasing the power of the Immortal Curse, and transforming his own consciousness.

From then on, once he dies, the resentment born will have a magical ability.

It can parasitize in the human body like a leech, and by stealing human vitality, life magnetic field, and spirituality, it will breed new consciousness in resentment.

Since the newly born consciousness has all the memories of the original body, it can be regarded as a reincarnation of consciousness.

The most terrifying thing is that the newly born consciousness can devour the host's consciousness and achieve perfect usurpation.

So there is no need to say what Jomoya Chris was thinking at the beginning.

······

Jomoya Chris dared to take a chance in the devil game because he thought he had the means of immortality.

But his luck was really bad, and he directly drew the card of death.

What's more unfortunate is that Jomoya Chris underestimated the devil game.

After he really owned the card, he found that his consciousness was locked by a purple chain, and even the immortal curse could not get rid of it.

At this time, he still did not despair, but felt that this was an opportunity to completely control the card.

According to his deduction, his resentment after death will enter the card and turn into a game character.

As long as the successor inherits the "game character", he can draw power from the successor and live again.

By then, it would be easy to devour the successor and revive him, or devour the consciousness of the card.

That's why Jomoya Chris carried a diary with him, using his property and magic knowledge to tempt the successor to keep the game character.

He believed that no matter whether the successor was an ordinary person or an apprentice, he could not resist this temptation.

As for whether the successor might be illiterate?

The probability is still very small, after all, his last will was written in the universal language of mankind.

With the 99.8% literacy rate in Lan Yu Country, there is no need to worry at all.

The reason why the literacy rate is so high is the result of Gutaf's efforts.

Jomoya Chris didn't know the reason, but Chen Qi guessed some of it.

This is to nourish the spirituality of ordinary people so that they can be harvested more persistently.

Although the card selection seems to be random, most of the people selected are quite talented in spirituality.

It is almost impossible for such people to be illiterate, so Jomoya Chris's success rate in inducing others by writing a diary is still very high.

······

The successor of the card, Elander Zoff, could not resist the temptation and chose to inherit the game character.

The next Chen Qi did the same.

However, what Jomoya Chris did not expect was that when he extracted enough power from Elander and his consciousness sprouted again.

He was actually swallowed up by the consciousness of the card, as if the latter had been eyeing it for a long time.

In this way, Jomoya was eaten every time he was resurrected until the power of the Undead Curse completely dissipated.

By the time Chen Qi inherited the card, Jomoya had already been completely dead.

Otherwise, after Chen Qi's spiritual awakening, it would be impossible for him not to find the abnormality.

In the final analysis, Jomoya still underestimated the power of the King Game.

Whether it is the Cangshou Demon Dragon or the Tongtian Giant, their power levels are all at the Sanctuary level. How could it be possible for someone to steal the house under their noses.

Chen Qi suspected that the reason why Jomoya Chris failed was because the power of the [Undead Curse] was too eye-catching and stimulated the game's defense mechanism.

It can cause a huge storm in the outer ring world. The level of [Undying Curse] must be very high.

Its appearance is like a wooden thorn piercing into the flesh. It would be strange if it is not targeted.

This is the instinctive confrontation between higher-level forces.

It is not unfair for Jomoya Chris to die!

······

The reason why Chen Qi can know all this is because the resentment actually records all the memories of Jomoya from birth to death, from the rebirth of consciousness to infinite death, until the dissipation of the Undying Curse.

This is the basic ability of the Undying Curse. Only by transcribing all memories into the resentment can the newly born consciousness be ensured to be "same root and same origin".

Chen Qi has obtained Jomoya Chris's entire life, so he can naturally know everything.

"It's rich, it's rich, hahaha!"

"The Chris family's inheritance treasure house is mine!"

"Alas, it's a pity that distant water can't quench near thirst. I can't leave the Blue Taro Kingdom now."

As the saying goes, a cunning rabbit has three burrows. After all, it is also an earl family. A lean camel is bigger than a horse, and a rotten boat still has three pounds of nails.

Most of the valuable treasures of the Chris family were sold by the prodigal son, but a large number of incomplete secret inheritances were still left.

Especially as the family became weaker and weaker, they paid less and less attention to these things. In the past hundred years, they have even been gathering dust in the secret vault and no one has read them.

Although Qiao Moya is very motivated, the basic condition for opening the family secret vault is spiritual awakening and becoming a supernatural being.

And he obviously does not meet the requirements.

What Qiao Moya Chris should do most is to learn from his grandfather and father, marry and have children, and give birth to offspring, and place his hopes on the next generation.

But he was obviously unwilling to live such a mediocre life, so he chose a more dangerous path and entered the devil's game.

As a result, Chen Qi is now extremely sure that the Chris family has been completely extinct.

It's not that the Chris family has not thought about multiplying the population, but since entering the inner ring world, their fertility rate has begun to decline sharply.

In the past hundred years, it has been a single-line inheritance from generation to generation.

In fact, it is not just the Chris family. All the supernatural families exiled to the inner ring world are so "sparsely populated".

This is the cruelty of fate.

······

Although Chen Qi can only stare at the secret vault of the Chris family now, there are still some good things in Qiao Moya's memory.

For example, the secret technique of identifying source ore, and some other messy things.

But because the memory is too huge, Chen Qi has to sort it out slowly.

Fortunately, the card fusion will definitely not be able to proceed in the past few days, and he has plenty of time.

The game mechanism is triggered twice a day, who can stand it.

So at the initiative of a certain enthusiastic person, under the strong promotion of the Nulis Federation, through the unanimous approval of the old players, the newly born new players were given the important task of maintaining the stability of the game.

Maintaining the smooth operation of the King's Game is related to the interests of everyone, so naturally no one will object.

Players just want to pass the game and get rewards.

But they don't intend to be eaten by the "chaotic" game.

The frequent triggering of the game mechanism makes the players' cards eager to move.

This is not a good sign.

If the game falls into turmoil again, everyone will experience a backlash again, and the old players will definitely be the first to bear the brunt.

It is precisely because they understand this that they agree to let the new players be responsible for maintaining the order of the game.

······

"Our mission is to maintain the stability and peace of the Blue Taro Country!"

"Our task is to suppress all outsiders who cause chaos."

"Our future responsibilities are to maintain the smooth operation of the King's Game."

In a high-rise building in Pucheng, the newly born [Maintenance Association] is holding its first mobilization meeting.

13 new players gathered together, and Wang Jiade was cheering on the podium.

The moment Wang Jiade finished his speech, thunderous applause rang out.

Everyone's emotions were obviously very high.

Fortunately, Wang Jiade was selected by the Nulis Federation and became the first president of the Maintenance Association.

As a smart man, Wang Jiade certainly knew why this pie would fall on his head!

Not only did he immediately run to the Metal Castle to swear allegiance, he also tried his best to invite Chen Qi to attend the establishment ceremony of the Maintenance Association.

Unfortunately, he was rejected by that adult, which is a pity.

Wang Jiade knew very well that the 12 people in the audience were giving him face now, but this was just an appearance.

We are all new players, why should you be the president?

Isn't it because you are a lackey and can flatter?

Now that you have just acquired superpowers, everyone is a rookie, so naturally you will be given some face.

When everyone is promoted to LV2, it will be hard to say.

Wang Jiade wanted to invite Chen Qi to support him because he knew this very well.

But how could Chen Qi have the leisure to play this kind of house with them?

He is very busy now!

······

After the establishment of the maintenance association, the unscrupulous foreign apprentices were immediately suppressed.

The 13 of them were not reckless, they also had a group of apprentices under them.

So under the tactics of bullying the minority with the majority, attacking the main culprit, and dividing and encircling, the arrogance of the foreign apprentices was quickly suppressed.

But these apprentices are indeed from a prosperous place, and their strength is much stronger than that of ordinary apprentices.

Even though the 13 novice players have superpowers, it took a full week to completely get everything done.

Fortunately, the time spent barely did not exceed expectations, otherwise the newly established maintenance association would be destroyed!

During this process, 3 of the 13 new players were replaced. It has to be said that the new players are weak and can be killed by apprentices.

But fortunately, the Blue Taro Kingdom has regained stability, and the King's Game is finally no longer chaotic three times a day.

······

It took Chen Qi a full 5 days to completely sort out the memories of Jomoya Chris.

The reason why it was so slow was that although many of the memories in it were not specific knowledge, they were still quite useful for broadening their horizons.

Chen Qi, who had never left the Blue Taro Kingdom, was really taught a lesson by the dead Jomoya.

Chen Qi had a vague understanding of everything about the inner ring world through the memories of the apprentices.

But those guys were just ordinary apprentices after all, and their knowledge of the world in the inner ring world was far less than that of Jomoya Chris.

Of course, this part of the memory only made Chen Qi slightly interested, and it took a little more time.

What really shocked Chen Qi was Jomoya's knowledge of the outer ring world in his memory.

The Chris family is at least an earl. Even though they have declined in the last few hundred years, they have at least been in the outer ring world. Their knowledge is naturally not comparable to that of the frogs in the well of the inner ring world.

Of course, the Chris family has been declining in the last hundred years. Many things are passed down by word of mouth, and even used as bragging topics.

All that Qiao Moya knows is just a few words, very scattered.

But even so, Chen Qi still saw a magnificent and magical huge world from it, and was deeply shocked by some of the things in it.

······

For example, some continents in the outer ring world have life.

Billions of intelligent life exist in it, creating some very incredible existences.

The outer ring world is also divided into different circles. The farther away from human civilization, the more dangerous it is.

Orcs, alien races, super life forms, various evil existences, many relics of civilization, the entire outer ring world is simply an endless treasure house.

But at the same time, it is also a cruel hunting ground, with endless lives fighting every moment.

In general, the Outer Ring World is still dominated by human civilization.

Because the core world tree of the Outer Ring World is always in the hands of the World Government.

······

There is a very magical saying about the origin of the World Tree, or this civilization community.

It is said that a million years ago, this world community was just a magma purgatory.

Endless spiritual energy gushed out from the depths of the earth, boiling all the substances into a pot of soup.

One day, a giant flaming bird flew over here and dropped a seed.

Miraculously, the seed survived and began to germinate and grow in this boiling soup.

In the process of growth, the seed continuously draws spiritual energy from the depths of the earth. Finally, with the birth of a seedling, the boiling magma world actually stopped expanding.

As the saplings grew bigger and bigger, 100,000 years later, the original magma world had shrunk by billions of times, leaving only a small magma lake.

And this magma lake was the former Outer Ring World.

At this time, the sapling had grown into a giant tree that covered the sky and the sun, and its height was simply incalculable.

And just after the towering tree grew up, the giant bird of fire descended again and made its home on the tree.

Ten thousand years later, one day, the towering tree suddenly began to burn and turned into a pillar of fire that reached the sky.

This fire burned for 30,000 years, and finally, with the rise of two suns, one large and one small, the giant tree, which had burned out its power, collapsed completely.

The collapse of the giant tree once again tore the earth apart, and everything seemed to be repeated under the gushing of spiritual energy.

But after the death of the giant tree, a new seed was bred.

With the rebirth of the little tree, the spiritual energy gushing out from the depths of the earth was completely swallowed up, and even the original magma lake disappeared completely.

This is because the energy here is no longer enough to supply the little tree to grow again.

In the end, the little tree stopped growing, and this world was completely stabilized.

The following years were the emergence of endless life.

Until 500,000 years ago, intelligent life finally defeated all races and successfully occupied the World Tree.

They moved a bird eggshell to the tree and used it as the foundation to build the royal court.

It is rumored that the eggshell came from a giant flame bird, and it had its own time and space inside.

But everything has its ups and downs, and at this time, the world that the eggshell turned into was already the headquarters of the World Government.

······

Chen Qi was naturally not very convinced by this exaggerated myth.

The Outer Ring World was so huge, but it was just a small magma lake hundreds of thousands of years ago. This was a bit beyond his imagination.

As for an eggshell being able to form its own world, it was even more incredible.

Perhaps only when he entered the Outer Ring World and saw the so-called World Tree, could he truly appreciate the magnificence of this myth.

Unfortunately, even at the peak of the Chris family, they were unable to witness the existence of the World Tree with their own eyes.

It was really because the Outer Ring World was too huge and too dangerous.

It was not a place where you could travel around at will!

In Jomoya's memory, there is also a description about the outer world that Chen Qi cares about.

The speed of time in the outer world is different from that in the inner world.

Especially on those lands with life, the higher the spiritual frequency, the faster the time flows.

On the most exaggerated continent, the time passes a thousand times faster than in the inner world.

And that is also the place with the most abundant spiritual energy in the outer world, and the battlefield where countless intelligent races fight and kill.

It can be said that although Chen Qi did not gain too much extraordinary knowledge from Jomoya Chris's memory, just a few words about the outer world have already satisfied him.

······

After dealing with Jomoya Chris's memory, Chen Qi started the deep fusion of cards again.

But this time, he was not so smooth.

The LV5 that can stop countless players finally made Chen Qi hit a wall.

It took more than half a month, and Chen Qi just figured out a clue.

But whether it can work, Chen Qi himself doesn't know.

According to his feeling, the probability of success is only 30% at most.

"No, I can't work in seclusion anymore."

"I have no inspiration now, and continuing to work in seclusion is just a waste of time."

"Since the King's Game has turned into a battle game, let's use actual combat to verify everything I have conceived."

"I remember that there seem to be a few of my enemies who are still alive and well. This won't do."

Inside the metal castle, Chen Qi, who had figured out everything, began to look through his little notebook to see who was recorded in it.

The first place was naturally Yin Xie San Ren, but unfortunately the old man was dead.

After passing by a few more dead people, Chen Qi finally found a target.

Spade A Finks, the former owner of the Geomancer Compass, this guy left a deep impression on Chen Qi at the time, and he had to send him off.

After turning a few more pages, the next target came into view.

Yu-Gi-Oh, this digital elf seemed to have a grudge against me.

I had to strike first.

But there were only two enemies, wasn't this too few?

Chen Qi searched again unwillingly and finally found another fish that slipped through the net.

Everic, this old man stole what the Prime Minister left for him, and threatened to report him, which is really hateful.

He must be added!
