Chapter 136 Dark Forest
Chapter 136 Dark Forest
"Annihilation," Shui Jiaolong returned to the bedroom after the court session. After dismissing all the palace servants, she could not help but shout, "What did you just say?"
[Shui Jiaolong,] Annihilation's voice was low, [Send someone to Wuling Port to check. The power I left there no longer has a host to rely on.]
[You know, if the host dies, my power will be wasted and cannot be recovered.]
"You mean Wuchen and the others? How could they die?"
Shui Jiaolong, dressed in a gorgeous dragon robe, paced anxiously in the bedroom, and then suddenly raised her head, "What happened in Wuling Port?"
[Shui Jiaolong, my strength,]
"Hahahaha," Shui Jiaolong narrowed her beautiful eyes, which were full of danger, "Are you going to say that your strength is not enough again?"
Suddenly, Shui Jiaolong was no longer panicked.
"It's okay. I'll have them collect some untouchables." She gently took off her heavy dragon robe, "I'll torture them myself so you can absorb the power."
[Shui Jiaolong, are you crazy? I told you...]
The sound of annihilation is rarely panicked.
But no matter how he shouted, Shui Jiaolong didn't care.
In the Chu State Palace, screams of palace maids were soon heard.
Ten days later.
[Shui Jiaolong, as long as you promise not to abuse the Chu people anymore, I will give you the blueprints for the new weapon.]
Shui Jiaolong finally waited for this day, she was naturally happy, "Okay, I promise you."
[Shui Jiaolong, don't break your promise. If you make me unhappy, I will die with you.]
Shui Jiaolong was about to get what she wanted, so how could she go against Annihilation? She quickly agreed, "Yes, I understand."
The tone was respectful, a long-lost note.
Annihilation was satisfied, and Shui Jiaolong's mind flashed with several drawings and a unique recipe.
"This is?"
[The blueprint is for a musket, and the recipe is for gunpowder.]
[Shui Jiaolong, with these two things, the Chu State will be invincible. ]
Shui Jiaolong laughed freely, and she had long forgotten that she had not reviewed memorials for a long time since she ascended the throne.
If she had reviewed the memorials, Yanmie would have known that Xia Kingdom now not only had powerful thunder bombs.
They even created an indestructible torpedo warship...
Qian Qian had no idea how proud Shui Jiaolong was.
At this moment, they had arrived at the entrance of the dark forest in Zhaocheng.
Erdan suffered a lot of injustice along the way. As soon as he got off the cart, he put his big head in Qianqian's arms and cried.
Li Huan felt distressed when seeing this, and quickly ordered Jinzi and Yinyin to build a stove so that he could make a good dog meal for Erdan.
Lin Jin...
Lin Yin...
Along the way, the two of them did not encounter any crises, and their skills in building earthen stoves became increasingly advanced.
The group had a hearty meal outside the dark forest. As the sun rose to the top of the sky, Gu Feiyun was a little hesitant, "Shall we go in together?"
She looked at the princess, then at Chu Qiyun.
Qian Qian waved his hand and said, "Erdan Huanhuan and I will go in and check it out first."
"Gold, silver and other secret guards will stay outside to protect you."
"This," Chu Qiyun instinctively wanted to refuse.
Qian Qian waved his hand immediately and said, "If there is any accident, Er Dan can carry us out. It will be difficult for him to make a choice with so many people."
There is another reason. Huanhuan has eaten many red fruits since she was a child.
His five senses are very strong, and he is immune to all poisons. Even if there are any poisonous creatures in the dark forest, the two of them and the wolf can completely avoid them.
Chu Qiyun and Gu Feiyun looked at each other and actually felt that what the princess said made sense.
So it was settled, Qianqian took Li Huan and Erdan into the dark forest.
As soon as he entered the dark forest, Qianqian felt a chill all over his body.
There was a strange smell in the air. She and Li Huan rode on Erdan's back, and Erdan slowed down to look around carefully.
It is really pitch black in the dark forest.
Qianqian looked up and saw that the trees here were tall and the leaves were dense.
But the density of the leaves should not be enough to make the entire dark forest appear so dark.
If it hadn't been a short time since they came in, Qianqian would have suspected that it was already dark outside.
Suddenly Qianqian felt a palpitation. She felt uncomfortable and asked Erdan to stop.
Erdan was very obedient and followed the orders. Qianqian covered his chest and waited for the palpitations to pass.
Gradually, the dark forest became brighter.
"Princess," Li Huan said in a panic, "Why is it suddenly bright in this forest?"
He looked around and said, "This looks like an ordinary forest. There shouldn't be a way in and no way out, right?"
Just as Qian Qian was about to answer Li Huan's question, a familiar voice suddenly came from his mind.
【Princess.】
It was Tongzi's voice. Qianqian was surprised. [Has your hidden device expired?]
[No,] the system took a deep breath, [Princess, when I entered this dark forest just now, I felt the power of annihilation.]
[I used my super energy absorption skill to absorb most of the annihilation power in this dark forest.]
[The remaining half, I cannot absorb even with super absorption. ]
[So I used the system attack power enhancement talisman to disperse the remaining annihilation power. ]
Qian Qian frowned tightly, "What do you mean? Is there a power of annihilation in this dark forest?"
[Hmm,] the system taunted, [that guy may have foreseen that he would leave Chu State a long time ago.]
[He should have imprisoned part of his power in the dark forest when he was at his strongest.]
[If, when he leaves Chu, his own strength is insufficient, he can take back the power imprisoned in the dark forest to replenish himself.]
【Look at it this way,】 Qian Qian tilted his head, 【Was Annihilation particularly powerful before it happened?】
[Yes, I feel a strong sense of oppression from the power he left behind.]
【But he should be very weak now. 】
[This is a lucky coincidence. Is this dark forest of Tongzi dangerous? If we hide our troops here, is it appropriate? ]
The system smiled, [It's suitable. Not only is the geographical location good, but the resources in the forest are also abundant.]
[Okay, you absorb the power of annihilation first.]
[Well, Princess, I have one last hidden device left, I will continue to use it. ]
[There is still the power of annihilation in this Zhaocheng. I cannot take the risk.]
[Yes,] Qianqian nodded heavily, [We should still be cautious, you continue to hide.]
[Okay, Princess, you must be careful and don't act impulsively.]
[Don't worry,] Qian Qian comforted him, [I will take good care of myself.]
"Ah," Qian Qian exclaimed.
She even forgot to tell Tongzi that her space was already suitable for planting and Erdan could also enter the space.
After another round in the dark forest, Qianqian got out of it before dark.
Seeing them come back, Gu Feiyun, Chu Qiyun and others finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Qian Qian told the two of the situation in the dark forest, and they immediately planned to investigate the dark forest tomorrow.
Li Huan was responsible for cooking dinner, and Qian Qian would bring people to help when he was free.
Erdan and the secret guards were alert to the surroundings.
The next morning, everyone entered the dark forest.
After exploring the dark forest, Qian Qian ordered the secret guards to deliver a letter to inform everyone in Qiankun Port that they could send people over one after another.
That night, the group set up camp in the dark forest.
Qianqian was awakened in the middle of the night by a strange pungent smell. She tightly grasped the dagger at her waist in the tent.
Erdan, who was guarding her, ran out yelling.
