Chapter 684
Indeed, even if he told Regiment Commander Feng Yiming, the latter probably wouldn't understand.
Even if he did understand, so what?
It would be better not to know.
Lin Moyu said softly, "If you want to know more, then hurry up and improve yourself."
Regiment Commander Feng Yiming naturally understood this logic, "Thank you, General Lin, for your help."
"It was my duty. I'm leaving!" After finishing, Lin Moyu activated the Dragon Scale and vanished without a trace.
Regiment Commander Feng Yiming let out a long sigh of relief and announced that everything had returned to normal.
Shenxia Ancient City returned to its usual appearance once again.
This incident had no impact on ordinary Professionals; they had simply witnessed a rare and grand spectacle.
For Lin Moyu, it was indeed a good experience.
This was him truly coming face-to-face with a powerhouse from outside the world.
Although he didn't know the other party's true level, Lin Moyu realized once again that he wasn't strong enough; he needed to work hard and keep getting stronger.
…
Antares looked at Lin Moyu, who had appeared before him, and teased, "Hey, you came really fast as soon as you heard there were good things!"
"You've learned to be bad!" Lin Moyu shook his head and sighed.
Antares retorted unceremoniously, "He who stays near vermilion gets stained red; he who stays near ink gets stained black."
Lin Moyu continued to counter, "Then why haven't I seen you take me there?"
"How would I take you? Take you to sleep together? With your lifespan, one sleep and your whole life would be over." Antares was extremely dismissive.
Lin Moyu didn't want to deal with this guy. This guy was strong, had a high level, and furthermore, being of the Dragon race, had a naturally long lifespan.
It is said that even the worst Elemental Dragon has a lifespan measured in tens of thousands of years.
In any case, he couldn't compare to that.
Lin Moyu quickly changed the subject, "What is this good thing you mentioned?"
"Hmph, you know the answer already."
A small tower appeared in front of Lin Moyu.
It was exactly the tower-shaped object he had seen through the Ancient Thunder Tower earlier.
At that time, it had scattered infinite lightning, obscuring his vision, so Lin Moyu could only vaguely see its outline.
Now looking at it, it really was just a small tower.
Lin Moyu held the small tower; it slowly rotated on his palm, and the tip of the tower had faint flashes of electricity.
The more Lin Moyu looked at it, the more familiar it seemed. "Isn't this the Ancient Thunder Tower?"
The appearance of the small tower was exactly the same as the Ancient Thunder Tower in Shenxia Ancient City; one could say they were 99% similar.
Antares chuckled, "Your eyes aren't blind yet, you managed to see that."
Lin Moyu ignored Antares, "Hurry up and tell me, what's good about this thing?"
Antares narrowed his eyes, feigning profoundness, pondered for a long time, and spat out two words: "Guess!"
Lin Moyu threw the small tower directly at Antares, "Guess your head, hurry up and tell me!"
Antares chuckled, "You've already been inside the Ancient Thunder Tower in Shenxia Ancient City, right? How did it feel to control it?"
Lin Moyu recalled his two experiences operating the Ancient Thunder Tower, "The God-Slaying Lightning is very powerful, but my strength is insufficient, and I cannot unleash its full power."
Antares snorted, "What level are you? You want to unleash the power of the God-Slaying Lightning? You're far from it. Any other feelings?"
Lin Moyu continued, "Also, it's not flexible enough, the attack methods are too monotonous, and the defense is lacking."
Chapter 659: Your era is quite miserable
Lin Moyu listed a few shortcomings of Shenxia Ancient City.
Admittedly, Shenxia Ancient City was very strong, but it also had many deficiencies.
Antares's expression became slightly serious, "Actually, the shortcomings you mentioned don't exist at all."
Don't exist?
Lin Moyu was a bit confused.
Antares said, "The Shenxia Ancient City you saw is actually a Shenxia Ancient City that has already been crippled."
"Shenxia Ancient City is a quite decent war weapon; it has another name."
Antares clearly still wanted to keep him in suspense. After pausing for two seconds, he said slowly, "Guess!"
Lin Moyu really wanted to use Corpse Explosion on him. Did this guy really get corrupted by him?
He glared at him fiercely, his fists clenched, creaking.
Antares chuckled, "I'm not teasing you anymore. It has another name: god-slaying fortress."
"The 'god-slaying' here does not refer to so-called god-level powerhouses."
Lin Moyu was startled and blurted out, "Is it Super God?"
Antares shook his head slightly, "Then you underestimate the god-slaying fortress too much; it refers to True Gods."
Lin Moyu was shocked; this was the first time he had heard of True Gods.
Clearly, True Gods were existences even more powerful than Super Gods.
Antares continued, "Whether it's deities or human Professionals, when they reach the level of Super God, all paths lead to the same destination; they are all called Super Gods."
"And those stronger than Super Gods are True Gods."
"The god-slaying fortress refers to True Gods; this is a war weapon capable of slaying True Gods."
"Unfortunately, the Shenxia Ancient City you saw has been severely damaged in the great war, leaving only the main body."
"Even after a thousand years, it has only recovered about ten percent."
"However, even with just ten percent, it's actually quite good; it's just that you have no way to unleash its power."
Lin Moyu asked, "How can I make it fully recover?"
"Energy, massive energy. The god-slaying fortress has the ability to self-repair; just give it enough energy, and it will be fine."
Antares was clearly extremely knowledgeable about the god-slaying fortress and gave the answer without hesitation.
Shenxia Ancient City, oh no, the god-slaying fortress had always been in the Lower Space, continuously absorbing energy from the ground of the Ancient Battlefield; maintaining this for a thousand years had only resulted in a ten percent recovery.
One can see how terrifying the amount of energy it requires is.
Lin Moyu asked, "Then what about this small tower?"
Antares said, "You said the god-slaying fortress wasn't flexible, right? It's because it was missing this."
"The Ancient Thunder Tower is the inner tower of the god-slaying fortress and possesses the core. The small tower in your hand is the outer tower of the god-slaying fortress."
Lin Moyu pondered for a moment, "You mean, using this, I can control the god-slaying fortress."
Antares's eyes lit up, "You hit the nail on the head; that's indeed the case. You can integrate your soul mark into it, and then connect it with the Ancient Thunder Tower core."
"This way, you can control the god-slaying fortress and play with it as you please."
"Of course, with your current level, it's far from enough. Let alone controlling the god-slaying fortress to fly around, even just making it leave the ground for one second would drain you into a dried-up husk."
Lin Moyu thought it made sense; such a powerful tool, how could it be so easily controlled?
Otherwise, wouldn't he be invincible? Whatever Abyss, Dragon Realm, he could just drive the god-slaying fortress and sweep through everything; who could possibly stop him?
However, although he couldn't operate the god-slaying fortress yet, there was no problem with marking the outer core with his soul mark first.
Antares said, "There was originally another guy's soul mark on it, but I've already wiped it away, so you can rest assured."
Lin Moyu said sincerely, "Thank you!"
Antares raised his head quite haughtily, "Small matter, small matter, no need to be so polite."
Lin Moyu continued to ask, "Do you know who wanted to take the god-slaying fortress just now?"
Antares said, "A little guy who just became a True God, no need to worry about him. He won't dare to come again, otherwise I'll slap him to death."
True Gods could only be called little guys in Antares's mouth; Lin Moyu had a whole new understanding of Antares's strength.
He discovered that he knew too little; even though he had learned about what happened back then from the Water God, he still knew nothing about true power.
True Gods were nothing in Antares's mouth, let alone Super Gods.
His goal had unknowingly been pushed a bit further.
Lin Moyu thought of what the old man had once said, wanting him to become the guide of this world.
It's estimated that Super God is not enough, and even True God might not be enough; he didn't know what level would be required.
The pursuit of power seems to have no limit.
And in the face of powerful strength, weakness is the original sin.
Perhaps one great battle between powerhouses, a random strike, could wipe you out.
Just like humans taking a step might accidentally crush many ants; no one cares about the life or death of the weak.
To not be killed at will, one must be strong.
Lin Moyu was silent for a few seconds, then said word by word, "I know about the events of the past."
Antares was a bit confused, "The past? Which past? What events?"
A few question marks popped up; Antares had lived too long and for a moment couldn't figure out which 'past' Lin Moyu was talking about.
Lin Moyu said, "Back then, when the Desolate Beasts and the Zerg invaded our world, the deities and human Professionals fought them, the World Power awakened, the deities fell, the Professionals faced a generational gap…"
Antares widened his eyes, "Who told you that?"
Lin Moyu said, "The Water God, I awakened her."
"Women!" Antares sighed, appearing somewhat helpless, "Forget it, forget it, since you know, you know."
Lin Moyu continued, "It's just that there's something I don't understand."
"What else could you not understand?"
"You clearly knew the whole process, why wouldn't you tell me? Were you afraid I'd be discouraged? Am I that fragile?"
Antares shook his head, "It's not fear, it's just that there's no need to rush. What if I told you earlier? What could you do? You couldn't do anything, right? When your strength reaches that level, you will naturally know what you should know."
Lin Moyu could understand Antares's words; he had also encountered similar problems, so he stopped dwelling on this issue.
He looked at Antares and changed the subject, "You must know who the mastermind behind the great war is, but I know you definitely won't tell me."
"Then I want to ask, what's the deal with the Abyssal Demon and the Dragon race? God Yi told me that even if a Super God is born among humans, it's impossible to wipe them out."
Antares said, "That guy Jiang Yi, he knows nothing. His limit in this life is Half-step Super God; he will never be able to become a Super God."
"There is no such thing as an unkillable guy in the world; it just depends on whether you have enough strength."
"Even our Dragon race has those we cannot provoke…"
Antares didn't say it clearly, but it revealed quite a bit of information.
Lin Moyu pondered for a few seconds, "So, if I possess the strength of a Super God, I can go and wipe out the Abyssal Demon and the Dragon race?"
"You can't wipe them out!" Antares told Lin Moyu very decisively and affirmatively.
Hmm?
Lin Moyu looked at him, waiting for an explanation.
Antares said, "Super God is not enough. Once you reach True God, you can wipe them out."
Lin Moyu asked curiously, "But the Demon Emperor and the Dragon Emperor are only Half-step Super Gods. A Super God killing a Half-step Super God should be very simple, right?"
"This involves the issue of World Laws. Once you become a Super God, you will understand; it's hard to explain right now."
"Laws are like a door; if you haven't entered the door, you will never know the situation inside."
