Chapter 338 The Zerg Queens
The interlayer of space is filled with endless spatial fragments, with diameters of tens of millions of kilometers and hundreds of millions of kilometers being visible everywhere.
Suk and the towering blue behemoth stood motionless in the void.
Allah’s excited voice rang in Suk’s mind.
"Master, master, you have earned military merit, and a very large amount of it."
"Oh? Let me see." Suk smiled slightly, glancing at the military merits that had just arrived on the arm guard screen. "920 trillion?"
Eloi exclaimed in surprise, "Suk, I just received a military merit, 80 trillion military merits."
"It belongs to King Lie Tuo," Suk said casually.
The minimum cost to kill an Immortal is 1 million, and the maximum is 1000 trillion (for killing a peak-level King).
Suk received 920 trillion, while Eloi only received 80 trillion. Clearly, the military system believed that the kill was mainly due to Suk's efforts.
The killing of King Lie Tuo was entirely due to the Death Star Vine, which was Su Ke's plant life form, so Su Ke naturally deserved the lion's share of the credit.
The fact that Eloi was able to receive 80 trillion is probably due to her previous battles and the effectiveness of her spatial sealing.
Through synchronous transmission in the virtual universe, the military system's judgment is intelligent, comprehensive, and fair, and rarely makes major errors.
Eloi said happily, "Now we've both accumulated enough military merits for our individual military merit quotas. I originally thought it would take me a very, very long time to reach my 10 trillion military merits quota."
"Yes, that's enough." Suk nodded. He had also accumulated 100 trillion military merits, and now the two of them were completely free. They could even withdraw from the extraterritorial battlefield without any problem.
"I didn't expect that we would complete our military merit quota in less than a year after entering the extraterritorial battlefield." Eloi sighed as she looked at the battlefield. "And we killed a peak-level King so quickly."
Eloi sighed with emotion, "The pinnacle of the King-level realm—that would at least be the level of the 'Phantom King' or the 'Desire King,' and the level of her King-level teacher in Chaos City."
"It's just relying on external forces; we still need to work hard ourselves," Suk said.
Eloi looked at Suk with a smile, "I've noticed it for a long time, Suk, you're really not proud at all."
Even killing a peak-level King didn't seem to cause Suk much emotional fluctuation.
For a genius who has only cultivated for a mere three thousand years, this is no small feat.
Suk smiled, then glanced around and said, "Let's leave here first. The previous battle took place in the spatial interlayer, and with our spatial blockade, even if King Lie Tuo wanted to come to our aid, he wouldn't be able to reach us for a while. However, I estimate that our message has already been sent back by King Lie Tuo."
In other words, the Zerg Alliance now knows about the intelligence that Suk and his companion revealed this time, including the information about the "King Limit" plant life.
However, Su Ke didn't care too much. If he knew, he knew. The Death Star Vine would be exposed sooner or later. Such powerful combat strength couldn't be hidden forever. It was just a matter of whether it was worth exposing. Being able to make a peak-level King fall was already a great gain.
The secret Suk truly didn't want outsiders to know was the two precious treasures he possessed, the "Soul-Flowing Star" and the "Wandering Light Gourd," and the secret of his ability to create clones—
The former will attract the covetousness of powerful individuals, putting oneself in danger, while the latter will attract the targeting of alien races.
Afterwards, Suk and Eloi left the spatial interlayer and returned to the Ice River Continent.
Inside the spaceship.
"We gained a lot from this battle."
This time, Suk and his group attacked the Yan God Clan, taking down four immortal gods and King Lie Tuo. They have quite a lot of spoils of war.
However, the treasures left behind by King Lie Tuo were the most numerous.
The wealth of a peak-level King-ranking expert!
However, as is customary, Suk and his companion first carefully checked all the items to ensure there were no hidden dangers.
The value of the spoils was only calculated after safety was confirmed.
Suk looked at the eight-meter-tall golden armor, which was left behind after King Lie Tuo's self-destruction. Even King Lie Tuo's self-destruction could not destroy it.
"The King's Armor is precious, but it can only be used by the Yan God Clan," Suk thought with regret.
The King Armor that remains can simultaneously weaken both physical and spiritual attacks, but it cannot change its size or shape. It is completely solidified and cannot be fully integrated into the body, so only the Flame God Clan can use it normally.
Immortal gods can change their immortal bodies to suit them, but this will weaken their strength and they also have weaknesses. They are truly neither worth keeping nor worth discarding.
Suk, who was less than two meters tall, was naturally unable to wear the golden armor.
"Useless." Shaking his head, Suk looked at the eighteen-meter-long golden halberd that exuded a terrifying aura. After testing it, he also shook his head.
Both the royal armor and this weapon are suitable for use by the Yan God Clan.
Even if it's special, Suk isn't very interested.
These two treasures are useless to keep, but they can be sold to the human race. He remembered that the Hongmeng shop had a "Golden Armor" on display, priced at 50 billion Hunyuan Units. Maybe he could sell these two together for tens of billions!
These should also be the most important treasures on King Lie Tuo's body.
Thinking about it this way, Suk felt much better.
Then, Suk took out the item he had unexpectedly obtained in the spatial interlayer. Suk carefully examined the black stone that shimmered with golden light and activated [Eye of Insight].
With the "Insightful Eye," it's true that you can avoid many pitfalls.
After confirming there were no problems, I grabbed it and refined it instantly.
Suddenly, a message flooded into Suk's consciousness.
"This—" Suk's expression showed a hint of surprise.
"What's wrong?" Eloi, who was calculating the value of the spoils, looked up and asked.
"Hmm————" Suk played with the stone in his hand. Even with his own strength, which was comparable to that of a high-level king, he could not make any marks on the stone when he exerted his full strength. It was a very special material.
"This stone is a token, and it records a coordinate location. It's very strange—it seems that this thing was most likely made and left behind by someone," Suk said.
However, he was still a little confused as to why he had ended up in the spatial interlayer.
"What are the coordinates of that place?" Eloi asked curiously.
Suk looked at Eloi and said, "This is what I find most strange. The location of this place is very special. It is not in the normal space of the original universe, nor is it a secret realm of the universe. Instead, it is deep in the space interlayer, on the other side of the divine kingdom layer."
"What?" Aloy exclaimed in surprise. "Could this be a record of the coordinates of a divine realm?"
The divine kingdom is the lifeblood of immortal gods, cosmic venerables, and cosmic lords; they will do their best to hide it, and no one will expose it.
"Maybe, but I have a feeling it won't be that simple." Suk looked down at the irregularly shaped black stone in his hand, about the size of a fist, silently emanating an aura that seemed to contain endless eternity, and fell into deep thought.
He was very interested in the location marked on these coordinates; if he went to take a look, he might make some unexpected discoveries.
However, if it really is the divine kingdom of some powerful being, rashly intruding into a divine kingdom might contain some dangers.
In the human territory, far removed from the outer battlefield, in the capital of the Flowing Cloud Universe Kingdom, on Flowing Cloud Star, at the Su Family Manor, the avatar of the Mother of All Things, who was cultivating inside the World Ring, opened her eyes as bright as stars.
"Coordinates of the Divine Kingdom Layer—" The avatar of the Mother of All Things seemed to be deep in thought, then suddenly smiled, a smile so beautiful that it made the heavens and earth pale in comparison.
"That seems interesting."
The human entity itself seems to have made a significant gain in the extraterritorial battlefield.
Of course, I wasn't idle at home either.
In addition to his persistent research into life genes, he is also cultivating the "Six Nirvanas" and the "Secret Manual of Time," but naturally, it will take longer than before.
"At the cost of nearly 100 billion points, I wonder to what extent we can research the life genes." The avatar of the Mother of All Things seemed to pierce through the barrier and look towards the Furnace of Life.
Deciphering the essence of life is also a difficult path, one that no one in the primordial universe had ever traversed before.
Fortunately, seeing hope, Suk naturally had patience, quietly accumulating experience and waiting for the day when it would blossom and bear fruit.
On the Ice River Continent, the news that King Lie Tuo had sent back to the Zerg Alliance after his fall caused quite a stir within the alliance.
"A human with the potential to become a King of Plant Life?" This news immediately caught the attention of the Zerg ruling class in the Eleventh Battlefield.
A group of stunningly beautiful Zerg queens gathered together, each radiating an aura stronger than that of ordinary cosmic lords.
They were all high-ranking members of the Zerg.
"According to the message sent back by King Lie Tuo before his fall, that human King could unleash the attack power of a peak King, but his understanding of the laws was only at the level of an ordinary King." A beautiful blue-haired insect queen with butterfly wings and a mole at the corner of her right eye said in a gentle voice, "Sisters, you have all seen King Lie Tuo's information. In terms of strength, he is stronger than an ordinary peak King. In addition, with the unique armor of their Yan God Clan, his ability to protect himself is even stronger. It would be almost impossible for even a peak King to kill him."
The Zerg Queen present all nodded slightly.
The Flame God Clan is a powerful race in the universe, and their leader, the "Flame Emperor," is an even more powerful overlord.
The armor of the Yan God Clan is also extremely famous, making it highly coveted by all sides.
Various factions, including the Zerg, have been researching how to decipher the secrets of the Flame God Clan's armor, but without success.
"There are three main reasons why King Lie Tuo perished," said a beautiful, silver-haired queen, her naked body barely visible, her voice cold and clear. "First, the blue behemoth cast a spatial blockade, preventing King Lie Tuo from teleporting. Second, their battlefield was located in a spatial interlayer, preventing the alliance's rescue in time. Third—and most importantly—was the human king, 'King of Calamity.' He possessed the pinnacle of king-level plant life and was tens of millions of kilometers in size. In an instant, he completely surrounded King Lie Tuo. Encircled by these multiple layers of encirclement, King Lie Tuo had nowhere to escape after the opponent burned his divine power, and he was no match for him. In the end, he was forced to self-destruct."
"What an unlucky little fellow," sighed a plump Zerg queen.
Who can argue with that? In the outer battlefield, even immortal plant life forms with the title of King are extremely rare, let alone those at the limit of the title of King. For King Lie Tuo to encounter such a low probability event is simply incredibly unlucky.
"King Lie Tuo has fallen, and the matter of his resurrection is naturally for the Yan Clan to handle; our alliance need not interfere," said the blue-haired insectoid queen. "What we need to discuss are this suddenly appearing 'King of Calamity' and 'Lord of Myriad Stars'."
Before his fall, King Lie Tuo naturally sent all the information back to the Alliance so that they could avenge him—although he knew the chances of that happening were slim.
The Zerg Alliance only then learned of Suk and his companion's titles.
The alluring Queen Mother, clad in a purple gauze robe that vaguely revealed her naked silver hair, shook her head. "We have compared the information of all the powerful figures and geniuses in the Hong Alliance of the human race, and none of them match the descriptions of this Calamity King and the Lord of the Myriad Stars Realm. It's as if they appeared out of thin air."
"Based on this situation, either the other side is a former powerful member of the human race who has cultivated in seclusion to improve their strength and has returned to the outer battlefield after changing their appearance," said one of the Zerg queens. "Another possibility is that they are a peerless genius who was hidden by humans, who has broken through and is now venturing into the outer battlefield. Both of these are possible."
"That Calamity King does indeed resemble the behavior of a human who has just broken through to become an unparalleled genius." The blue-haired Zerg Queen nodded slightly.
Human beings are all super geniuses, geniuses at the core of the five major human forces, and geniuses ranked in the top 100 of the human realm. They all possess combat power close to that of a king.
Once you break through, it's normal to have "high-level kingship" combat power.
Moreover, according to the message sent back by King Lie Tuo, the human's understanding of the laws of kingship was only comparable to that of an ordinary kingship, which is in line with this standard.
As for the ability to unleash "Peak of Kinghood" attack power, there are too many reasons. It could be an amplification technique, a treasure, or even the level of life genes. However, according to intelligence analysis, it should be because the "Limit of Kinghood" plant life formed the battle armor attached to the body.
"Only those who break through to the next level possess the strength of a high-ranking king; they are not worth worrying about." This was the thought of the Zerg queens.
If someone possessed this level of strength without having broken through to the next level, that would be terrifying.
However, these queens never expected that the "Calamity King" who appeared right under their noses was actually the peerless human genius "Suk" whom they had been thinking about killing day and night.
Firstly, according to intelligence, Suk should be cultivating in Chaos City with his wife Eloi, and it's still early in the season.
Secondly, they received news that Su Ke had already passed through the "Lord-level Primal Tongtian Mountain", and should theoretically have the understanding of the laws of the 20th level of the Tongtian Bridge.
However, the "King of Calamities" clearly does not conform to this.
The silver-haired, alluring insect queen glanced at her sisters around her. "This Calamity King is nothing to worry about, but that plant life at the limit of the King-level is very troublesome. Even with King Lie Tuo's abilities, he was forced to self-destruct. We other peak King-level beings, or even those at the limit of the King-level, would probably be in danger if we encountered this plant life."
The Zerg queens were filled with emotion.
"indeed."
"Plant life at the King level is extremely rare. None of us have been able to cultivate it. I really don't know how this human managed to cultivate it at the King level."
"Yes, the limit for becoming a King-level expert, what a huge price must be paid to cultivate one."
"Perhaps there is a super being of the human race standing behind him, and it is his beloved descendant who caused this."
The focus of the Zerg Queen's discussion quickly shifted to "plant life." Clearly, in the eyes of the Zerg high command, the human coronation was far less important than this plant life.
The news of King Lie Tuo's fall spread like wildfire among the thousands of kings on the Ice River Continent, and even to the eleventh battlefield.
The fall of a powerful King-level expert, especially one at the peak of the King-level realm, is incredibly explosive!
On the Ice River Continent, the powerful kings are quite leisurely. When kings fight each other, it rarely comes to a fight to the death, because kings are very difficult to kill.
Now that a peak-level King has fallen, this news has naturally attracted the attention of countless powerful figures.
The name of the human "King of Calamities," including the news that he possessed a King-level plant with extreme life, spread quickly.
Many powerful figures were astonished. How could a high-level King-ranked individual possess a plant life form at the King-ranked limit? It was truly unbelievable.
However, this also made many people realize that if they don't want to become the second King Lie Tuo, they should stay far away from this King of Calamities. Otherwise, if they get entangled by that plant life, their fate may be dire.
Meanwhile, on the eleventh battlefield, a sword-shaped spaceship was flying along a winding glacier on the Ice River Continent.
Elo and his companion finally summarized the lessons learned from this battle.
"The treasures of King Lie Tuo, not counting the golden armor and halberd, total 139 billion Chaos Units," Eloi said happily.
Suk nodded slightly, not too surprised. This wealth was higher than the average level of those who were high-ranking or peak-ranking kings.
