Chapter 590 Spirit Ant Wood (Plant Source: Nine Star Spirits)
"I must quickly regain my strength before I can go out and protect the great [King]."
Underworld.
That is, inside the [God’s Space] of [The Man in the Stone].
[The Man in the Stone] is sitting cross-legged on top of a large pile of level 6 zombie soul cores.
"Huhuhu~~..."
At this moment, as [Shi Zhongnan] performed some secret healing method, the spiritual energy in the zombie's spiritual core was continuously emerging, and then wrapped [Shi Zhongnan]'s body.
His severely damaged body was recovering at a slow rate.
In the age of dinosaurs, [Stone Man] was the empire's [second greatest mage], and his attainments in magic were second only to the [chief mage] Zhan Shulong.
but,
[Stone Man] There is another thing that he is particularly good at. Even looking for book dragons cannot compare with him.
What he is good at is the use and expansion of various spiritual plants.
For example, an ordinary dog's tail grass, as long as it is catalyzed and regulated by his spiritual energy, this ordinary dog's tail grass can even become a "superior elixir" that can quickly treat spring colds.
Regarding the use of plants, others gave thumbs up and praised his method as "turning decay into magic".
As for [Stone Man] himself, he also particularly likes to study the various properties of plants, their medicinal effects, etc.
Moreover, this kind of love has even reached a very fanatical level.
For example, once, in order to obtain a rare plant - [Spirit Ant Wood], he did not hesitate to enter the cave of "bloodthirsty spirit ants".
This kind of ant is very interesting. As long as you don't bleed, it will not attack you.
And once they smell the blood on your body, they will attack you crazily until your whole body is torn to pieces.
——Blood can inspire the violent character deep inside the "bloodthirsty spirit ant".
[Shi Zhongnan] understands this, but he is confident that he will not cause bleeding symptoms in his body.
[Spirit Ant Wood] grows in caves. [Stone Man] entered it carefully. On the way, he accidentally stepped on a "bloodthirsty spirit ant", but nothing abnormal happened at all.
"Sure enough, these ants will only attack because of blood. Even if I trample their companions to death, they will still be indifferent."
[Shi Zhongnan] relaxed his guard in his heart.
Very smoothly, he found the [Spirit Ant Wood] he wanted.
There are many thorns growing on the trunk of this [Spirit Ant Wood]. If you touch it with bare hands, you will definitely be stung until it bleeds.
[Stone Man] came prepared, and he would not make such a stupid mistake.
Wearing thick gloves, [The Man in the Stone] successfully obtained the [Spirit Ant Wood] he wanted.
Can,
Just when he wanted to go out, a crossbow arrow was shot in from the entrance of the cave.
[Stone Man] narrowly avoided this sneak attack of crossbow arrows.
"Tsk~!"
However, there was a gash on his body.
Bright red blood slowly flowed out from the wound, which was not large or small.
[The Man in the Stone]’s face changed drastically:
"Oops!"
Outside the cave entrance, the man who shot an arrow immediately turned into a pterosaur and fled quickly.
Even though it was a quick glance, [The Man in the Stone] still recognized the identity of the pterosaur.
——The sneak attacker is none other than the empire’s [third greatest mage]!
Although [Shi Zhongnan] is in the position of "the second oldest person in ten thousand years", he is devoted to the study of plants and will not be jealous of Shulong who is in the "Chief Archmage" at all.
However, this [Third Mage] is the "Third Ten Thousand Year Old". He is not good at academics and has been suppressed by [Stone Man] and cannot be promoted, so he has a twisted feeling of resentment.
Since Zhao Shulong is the brother of [King], even if he gave [The Third Mage] a hundred courages, he would not dare to kill Zhao Shulong.
Therefore, he could only attack [The Man in the Stone].
This time, he happened to learn the information about [The Man in the Stone] picking spirit ant wood, so he took his crossbow and ambush at the entrance of the "bloodthirsty spirit ants"'s cave in advance.
He grasped the timing of the sneak attack very well, choosing the time when [The Man in the Stone] had just finished digging the spirit ant tree.
At this time, [Shi Zhongnan] was in a very happy mood and his vigilance was at its lowest.
Therefore, the [Third Mage] can easily succeed.
*******
"Damn, they smell blood."
[Stone Man] After he noticed blood on his body, he wanted to run out quickly, but it was too late. The "bloodthirsty spirit ants" had already surrounded him.
He can't escape.
At that time, [The Man in the Stone] had not yet become a god, and his strength was very low, and he was unable to deal with these ferocious and cruel "bloodthirsty spirit ants".
Just when [The Man in the Stone] was desperate, a man holding a silver-white spear appeared at the entrance of the cave.
There is no one in the entire empire who doesn't know that spear.
It is the empire's first artifact - [Moon-Shattering Spear].
It is said that a single shot can shatter the moon.
And the man with the spear was well known throughout the empire.
He is the most powerful man in the empire, and also the most powerful man on earth - the invincible and supreme [King].
That day, [King] just wanted to come here and practice his marksmanship with this nest of "bloodthirsty spirit ants".
Unexpectedly, he happened to meet [The Man in the Stone] who was in trouble.
So, [Wang] easily dealt with these ants and saved [Shi Zhongnan]'s life.
Just for [Wang]’s life-saving grace, [Shi Zhongnan] is already very grateful.
What moved [Shi Zhongnan] even more was that after [Wang] recognized the identity of [Shi Zhongnan]'s "second greatest mage", he immediately discovered something suspicious——
If an ordinary person is accidentally injured, it can still be explained.
However, it is basically impossible for a "second greatest mage" with professional knowledge to be injured and bleed, triggering an attack by "bloodthirsty spirit ants"!
So [Wang] asked [Shi Zhongnan] the reason for what happened.
This made [Stone Man] feel flattered. He never dreamed that the invincible and supreme [King] would actually talk to him. He didn't care about talking, and he also found out the doubts about himself.
At that moment, [Stone Man]'s admiration for [King] reached its highest peak.
In short,
Finally, under the investigation of [Wang], the murder case of [Shi Zhongnan] soon came to light.
After this incident, [Shi Zhongnan] worked harder to study potions, determined to help [Wang] realize his dream.
——That is the dream of dominating the galaxy!
[Stone Man] doesn't know much about the Milky Way, and he doesn't like things like domination, but as long as it is [The King's] dream, no matter how strange it is, [Stone Man] is determined to help [The King] realize it.
But things are changing, and a zombie crisis has broken out!
One after another, dinosaurs turned into terrifying zombies.
When the zombie crisis broke out, [Stone Man] had already reached the realm of [God], but it was of no use. A strong person who could protect [King] must be a [Creation God] level existence.
For example, looking for Shulong, the [Chief Mage] is the [Creation God].
