Dragon Clan: Undercover at the beginning, the road to becoming a god

On the first day, the king's blood sacrifice awakened the World Tree, and the branches and roots at the top of the World Tree began to grow continuously, spreading across the entire Arctic Ocean seabed.

On the second day, the roots of the World Tree began to capture and absorb the sleeping dragon-blood creatures on the seabed of the Arctic Ocean. Starting from the Greenland Ice Sea, a terrible red tide erupted on the seabed of the Arctic Ocean again. This time the scale of the red tide was ten thousand times greater than before, almost The entire Arctic Ocean turns into a red sea.

Even if you look down from the moon to the ground, this level of changes in the sky and the earth is so obvious that it can't be observed even with the naked eye.

Within the Nibelung root, trillions of dragon blood subspecies were absorbed by the roots of the World Tree along with the red tide. Even one percent of the red tide would be comparable to the scale of Takamagahara. It was enough for Fenrir to give birth to a huge dragon body, and even if only one-tenth of the Crimson Tide was used, it was enough for Xia Mi to develop into a mythical earthly python form that was only theoretically possible and that she almost never had.

Perhaps the elders themselves don't know it, but according to the detection of the secret party's external satellites, the massive red tide set off a huge torrent of elements. This torrent of elements, which can almost affect the climate of the world, unconsciously formed the silhouette of a huge black beast. , but this huge silhouette does not look like the black dragon with wings in mythology, but instead looks like a huge catfish.

As the World Tree continued to be absorbed, the silhouette of the huge black beast continued to collapse, flowed into the sea where Avalon was located along with the red tide, and gradually disappeared.

However, after the nutrients in these red tides were fully absorbed by the World Tree, the appearance of this towering giant tree did not change much, and it still maintained its original leafy appearance.

On the third day, the World Tree took the initiative to stop absorbing nutrients from the outside world. Its roots spread all over the Arctic Ocean and quietly crawled on the seabed. The massive red tide gradually receded, allowing the sea to return to its former color.

Everything seems to be no different from the past - except for something that is bred deep in the roots of the World Tree, which is like a tree tumor and a heart.

Like other towering giant trees, there is an opening like a tree hole at the bottom of the World Tree.

But now, a strange red light is revealed from the depths of the tree hole. If you dare to get closer, you can see that there is not a coffin hidden deep in the tree hole like other giant trees, but there is a human-sized coffin. The mysterious fruit is like an enlarged version of a tree fruit, and like a constantly beating heart.

And if you are more courageous and enter directly through the entrance of the cave, you will be captured by the surrounding red roots like the white bones at the door, and you will be sucked dry in one breath.

There are many people who choose to take risks under the temptation of power, but no one can get close to this living tree fruit. The only outcome of getting close is destruction.

It was dark at this time, and bright flames and searchlights illuminated the area around the World Tree through the thick red mist.

Patsy looked at his watch by the light. Seventy-one hours and fifty minutes had passed since the ceremony started. If he waited another ten minutes, it would be three days, which was also the time when the ceremony ended.

Now, the entire Holy Palace Medical Association and the Gattuso family have left World Tree and arranged outside.

"Hiss~"

A giant snake more than sixty meters long swam past Passi. Its black scales had a faint golden sheen, like a black-gold city wall.

But neither Patsy nor the guards around him looked like they were used to it and didn't feel nervous about it.

They quietly watched the giant snake crawling towards the World Tree. The giant snake seemed not to care about them at all. Its huge golden eyes shone with an intoxicating and pious light. Even without the driving force of the Yanling Emperor, it was extremely respectful. Lowering his head, he headed towards the center of the World Tree little by little.

The giant snake's path is covered with snake mucus, which is the trace of other giant snakes passing by.

In an environment where the inside and outside were completely isolated, Patsy was not very clear about what kind of changes had occurred in the outside world, but he was very aware of the changes inside the Nibelungs.

In addition to the red mist that had filled the air from the first day, all the towering trees here were also awakened like the world tree. They closed the tree holes one after another, and the huge tree trunks began to twist and twist. The coffins hidden in the tree holes He was directly strangled to pieces by the giant tree.

What are sealed in these coffins are all famous heroes from the mythology of human history for thousands of years. All of them are the best hybrids in human beings. None of them have a bloodline lower than S level, and there are even some who can rival the Emperor during his lifetime.

There is no doubt that buried in these coffins are the corpses of heroic spirits collected by Odin. It is with them as their bodies that Odin established his own Deadpool Legion.

But now, the bodies of these Deadpool Legions, together with the red tide from the outside world, are offered as nutrients and are completely absorbed by these trees.

After absorbing such precious blood, these trees soon bear fruits that are larger and more colorful than before.

After bearing these fruits, these trees seemed to have exhausted their vitality, evaporating red mist on the spot, and then died completely.

Now, except for the largest World Tree, all the trees on the entire island have dried up.

And all the fruits produced by these trees were swallowed by the giant snakes.

After devouring these fruits, the giant snakes showed strong characteristics of dragon transformation. Originally, the size of the giant snakes here was comparable to that of the next generation. After receiving the bonus of the tree fruits, their bloodline and strength have been greatly improved. Amplification, unless alchemy products, it is difficult for ordinary weapons to penetrate their scales and cause damage to them.

At first, this change made everyone slightly frightened. Although the effect of Yan Ling Emperor was strong, it also depended on the bloodline of the user. If all these giant snakes go crazy, they may not be able to defeat them all with their current fighting power.

But soon, they felt relieved, and the giant snakes that devoured the fruit started a civil war the next day and began to devour each other.

On the third day, these giant snakes suddenly stopped their civil war, and as if inspired by their bloodline, they crawled towards the center of the island, where the World Tree was located.

The direction they are heading is not the tree hole with the crimson heart, but the inside of the tree trunk.

Like a pilgrim, the giant snakes entered the hollow tree trunk through the stairs originally dug by humans.

Then, as if they were falling into an abyss, they were attracted by the huge gravity and accelerated towards the sky.

Falling towards the sky, this situation may make people confused just talking about it, but Caesar, Passi and others have already seen this phenomenon, so they are not surprised.

The island of Avalon is upside down. What they think is the sky is actually the deep sea, and what they think is the bottom of the sea is actually the surface of the sea. To them, the giant snake falls toward the sky after entering the tree trunk, but to the outside world, These giant snakes are just affected by gravity normally.

At first, the interference of external gravity only occurred at the border of the Nibelungs, so the blood from Caesar's wound would naturally float to the top of his head.

But since the second day, World Tree began to absorb the red tide from the entire Arctic Ocean, the rules within World Tree have changed.

Although the World Tree is originally made of tough material, it is not completely indestructible. They can still process it with the help of large equipment, otherwise they would not be able to dig out stairs and doors.

But after the World Tree awakens, even if you use a hydraulic press or alchemical weapons, you can no longer destroy even a single branch of it. Even napalm bombs are completely ineffective, and its toughness is increasing day by day.

In addition, the space inside the tree trunk seems to be connected to the outside world, so that once entering the hollow interior, it will be affected by the external gravity and fall towards the top of the head. There is even a strange suction that strengthens the gravity. This is all of them The reason for evacuating the interior of World Tree.

Now, the inside of the trunk of the World Tree is like a huge black well, swallowing all the creatures that enter.

But inspired by their bloodline, the giant snakes on the entire island scrambled to crawl into the black well, and then fell to the sky. After falling on the top of the tree, they turned into white bones, and their flesh and blood were completely absorbed by the World Tree.

Only then did people understand that everything on this island, whether it was coffins or giant snakes, was food that Odin had prepared long ago. Their mission was to use their lives to water the heart of the god when the god hatched.

The sixty-meter-plus giant snake in front of me originally made a pilgrimage in the direction of the World Tree. However, because it was too heavy and had swallowed others of the same size similar to itself in its belly, it slowed down a lot. Didn't catch up.

It was not until the last moment that it finally had time to rush to the World Tree and squeeze in with its bloated body.

"boom!"

With a loud noise, the last giant snake fell into the sky and was completely absorbed by the crown of the World Tree, completing the sacrifice of flesh and blood.

In the tree hole at the root of the World Tree, the constantly beating red fruit has finally grown to its limit.

"enough!"

Elder Alpha, who was carefully observing the changes in the shape of the red tree fruit, suddenly spoke.

Bred in strength, the World Tree has reached its limit and is ready for the next step, which is the final step of the ceremony.

After looking at the time, Alpha didn't rush to take action. Instead, he turned around and looked at Patsy with piercing eyes.

"Let me ask you, we are just humans, why do we have the opportunity to usurp the power of the Black King?"

"Because of wisdom?"

Percy thought for a few seconds and replied.

"No! Because of sacrifice!"

Elder Alpha looked solemn, like a preaching priest.

"The World Tree absorbed not only the dragon's blood in the Arctic Ocean, but also the embryos that the Black King had been gestating for ten thousand years."

As mentioned before, the entire Arctic Ocean is the womb where the Black King hatched. The Black King's embryo is naturally in this womb. According to the prediction, the Black King's embryo will take shape in four years, but now the embryo has not started to develop. , was completely absorbed by the World Tree.

"The Black King spent 10,000 years nurturing a new life, His Majesty Odin spent a thousand years laying out this plan, and the family spent hundreds of years executing the core of the plan. Now His Majesty Odin's life and death are unknown, and the Gattuso family is almost completely Destruction - after making such sacrifices, we can finally reach this point, and finally be able to walk in front of the throne of God! Now the power of God is close at hand, and you are about to win the crown of God and become one of the gods of the new era. Man, you will carry the glory of the Gattuso family and the power of the gods, and rule the new world with unparalleled majesty!"

As he spoke, Elder Alpha's voice gradually became impassioned.

"Glory, strength, victory... and even the whole world will be in your hands. You have to understand that all of this is due to the sacrifice of your family! And for the sake of victory and glory, everything in front of you, including our group of elders, is A sacrifice that can be sacrificed. Therefore, at this most critical moment, you cannot be as merciful as Caesar. No matter what sacrifice you face, you must restrain yourself until you fully grasp the power of God!"

When the ceremony was about to succeed, the emotions of the elders were also aroused. They issued their final advice to Passi, the experimental subject of the plan and the future emperor.

"Yes, I know."

Patsy nodded calmly.

With his keenness, he could naturally hear the meaning of the elders. They did not want to be like Caesar, who would rather give up their position as gods because they could not bear to see some sacrifices.

In fact, there is no need for the elders to say this. He and Caesar are not the same type of people. He has nothing, so he is not afraid of losing anything.

He was very familiar with the plan and had already guessed what the victims the elders were talking about.

As mentioned before, everything on the entire island is food prepared by Odin for the Black King. Of course, in addition to coffins, giant trees, and giant snakes, there is another group of life on this island. They are indigenous women who have lived here more than ten years ago.

The Frigga bloodline contained in their bodies is the last link in the sacrificial ceremony and the last link to complete the Black King's power.

Only by acquiring Frigga's blood can the Black King's power be complete, and the toxicity of the Black King's blood be completely filtered, allowing Patsy to usurp the Black King's power just like Eri usurped the White King's power, and from then on become the most powerful person in the world. God.

As for these sacrifices, although Patsy had dealt with Naina among them, it was only to ensure the safety of outstanding sacrifices, and there was no friendship.

He would not want to protect Naina just because she was Nono's true form. In the face of the power of God, the weight of these sacrifices was insignificant.

As for the safety of Nono's mother Arush and Nono himself, he was not worried. He had already arranged for them to be placed under house arrest in advance.

Anyway, Alush herself does not have the blood of Frigga. Her entry into this place was entirely due to Odin's will. It would be of no use if she was sacrificed. It would be better to use it as a weakness or to please Nono.

Although Nono was the best sacrifice and the best witch, he did not intend to sacrifice Nono, and even reserved the position of the Queen of Gods for her.

Apart from these two people, he didn't care even if all the others, including his subordinates, died.

Hearing Passy's slightly cold answer, the elders nodded with relief. Taking advantage of Caesar's past experience, they were not afraid of the heir being ruthless, but they were afraid that the heir would be too affectionate.

"In that case, let's get started!"

Elder Alpha continued to issue instructions.

Under his instructions, one artificial blood bag after another was pushed into the tree trunk along with the trolley, and then fell into the black well toward the sky.

These are the blood they collected from those women through food as a strategy during this period of time.

If quality is not enough, then quantity will make up for it!

Anyway, they have more or less activated some Frigga bloodline, which will definitely be useful.

As Frigga's blood was absorbed by the tree top, the crimson fruit deep in the tree's roots also calmed down, and its color gradually turned a light golden color.

The dragon's blood absorbed by the World Tree is clearly more than billions of times more than this bit of human blood, but this little bit of Frigga's blood is like tofu in brine, completely changing the scent of the tree, turning it from irritable to gradually... Stabilize.

After all the blood bags were sold out, there was only one minute left before the ceremony ended.

Patsy, who noticed this, couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Is one minute enough to throw in all those indigenous women and absorb them? Is this time a little rushed?

What he didn't notice was that the guards of the Holy Palace Medical Association unknowingly stood in front of him and surrounded him.

Soon, in front of the tree trunk hole a hundred meters away, which was the entrance to the black well, the sacrifices carefully prepared by the elders were pushed out.

Not a group of women, not Naina, but simply one woman.

She had quite distinctive long dark red hair, and her eyes were also dark red. She had no restraints on her body, but she stood at the entrance of the black well willingly.

The moment they saw this slender figure with a slim waist and long legs, Patsy and Caesar, who was under house arrest by guards in the distance, instantly had bloodshot eyes, and unparalleled rage surged into their hearts.

"Nono?!"
