Divine Prison Warden, is 3rd grade, one of the two most important divine officials under the Left Divine Supervisor in the Divine Kingdom. 神狱典狱长,位列三品,神国左神将手下两大最重要的神官之一 In Mountains and Seas Divine Dynasty, all government positions also defer to arrive at the level division of 9th grade, Token Holder Master, Great Divine Advisor and Great Divine General and other giants naturally are 1st grade, Left Divine Supervisor this major giant high-ranking court officials, are 2nd grade hand/subordinate. 山海神朝之中,所有官职也都按照一到九品等阶划分,掌令师大神相和大神将等巨头自然位列一品,左神监这种各大巨头手下重臣,位列二品 Such as Divine Prison Warden and so on left and right arms of 2nd grade great divine official, naturally is 3rd grade. 诸如神狱典狱长之类二品大神官的左膀右臂,自然位列三品 Although is only the 3rd order ladder, but puts entire divine kingdom, and even in Classic of Mountains and Seas God World, is influential figure above trillion people, is prestigious, non- Heavenly God cannot hold the post. 虽然只是第三阶梯,但放到整个神国,乃至山海神界之内,都是亿万人之上的大人物,威名赫赫,非天神不可担任。 Takes Divine Prison Warden for instance, in fact manages may not only be located in divine capital's divine prison this prison, the entire prison system in divine kingdom, is controlled by it. 神狱典狱长为例,实际上所统管的可不只位于神都的神狱这一座监狱,神国之内的整个监狱体系,都由其掌控。 Appraises by powerful, is not overrated. 以位高权重来评价,丝毫不为过。 Mirror Marquis provides to Chen Gou Law Divine Class of the same name, only has the Divine Prison Warden this Divine Class exclusive ability, real power that has not corresponded. 镜侯提供给陈勾的同名法则神职,只拥有神狱典狱长这个神职的专属能力,并没有对应的实权。 And, because he eventually is not true Divine Prison Warden, therefore can only have some abilities, rather than completely. 并且,由于他终究不是真正的神狱典狱长,所以只能拥有部分能力,而不是全部。 Complete Divine Prison Warden Law Divine Class, its specialty ability is mainly two aspects. 完整的神狱典狱长法则神职,其专长能力主要是两方面。 First, to any serious criminal that has entered the divine kingdom prison, even if once entered, afterward successfully ran away, when with it fights, has nearly in the battle strength sublimation of steamroll. 其一,对凡是进入过神国监狱的重犯,哪怕只是曾经进入,后来成功逃走的,在与之战斗时,都拥有近乎于碾压的战力升华。 Meanwhile, fights when outside the prison, can from Divine Prison be detained serious criminal there to borrow strength, even summoned him to fight for oneself directly forcefully. 同时,在监狱外战斗时,可以从神狱内被关押重犯那里借取力量,甚至直接强行召唤其替自己战斗。 Second, can oppress to exploit prisoner that in Divine Prison detains, plunders its cultivation base and divine ability, and even the memory. 其二,可以压迫剥削神狱中所关押的罪囚,掠夺其修为神通、乃至记忆等。 If Chen Gou makes Cloud Guard activate Divine Prison Warden Law Divine Class, can only choose one from these two special skills. 陈勾如果让云守激活神狱典狱长法则神职,就只能从这两个特长之中选择一个。 Only if he really becomes Bixiang Divine Kingdom 3rd grade divine official Divine Prison Warden, can all want, but this in a short time obviously is not possible. 除非他真的当上毕襄神国三品神官神狱典狱长,就可以全都要,但这在短时间内显然是不可能的。 About these two options, is actually choice battle strength chooses growth simply speaking. 关于这两个选项,简单来说其实就是选择“战力”还是选择“发育”。 The first option, can promote to be battle strength immediately massively. 第一个选项,可以立刻提升大量即战力 Regarding true Divine Prison Warden...... 对于真正的神狱典狱长而言…… The True God level criminals who in Divine Prison detain are hundreds , many battle strength are exceedingly high, may be called half step God King, can with serious criminal that the divine kingdom giant fights. 神狱之中关押的真神级罪犯都数以百计,其中不乏一些战力通天,堪称半步神王,能与神国巨头争锋的重犯 So, Warden through summoning prisoner for the ability that oneself fight, is extremely naturally fearful. 如此,典狱长通过召唤囚徒为自己战斗的能力,自然极其可怕。 The second option, then takes care of your pennies and dollars will take care of themselves, exploits the detained prisoner unceasingly, making it the buried treasure that can mine continuously. 第二个选项,则是细水长流,不断剥削被关押的囚犯,令其成为一个可以源源不断开采的宝藏。 And, the prisoner who detains is stronger, level is higher, can plunder that benefits also to be naturally more. 并且,所关押的囚犯越强,等阶越高,能够掠夺得到的好处自然也越多。 How to elect? 怎么选? Chen Gou does not have, does not need is too long hesitant. 陈勾没有,也没必要犹豫太久。 Because Cloud Guard even activates this Law Divine Class, cannot gain any advantage from the prisoner in Bixiang Divine Kingdom Divine Prison, let alone summoned the prisoner to fight for oneself forcefully. 因为云守即使激活这个法则神职,并不能从毕襄神国神狱中的囚犯身上获得任何好处,更别说强行召唤囚犯为自己战斗。 Bixiang Divine Kingdom Divine Prison has nothing to do with him! 毕襄神国神狱与他无关! He can only in oneself territory newly-built prison, set up for oneself exclusive Divine Prison, then makes an arrest to imprison in inside personally. 他只能在自己的领地新建一座监狱,设立为自己的专属神狱,然后再一个个亲手抓人囚禁在里面。 So, the issue came. 如此,问题就来了。 Since can be defeated by him, and imprisons in Divine Prison, obviously battle strength definitely cannot compare him, how many fight help then these prisoners can provide for him? 既然是能被他打败,并囚禁在神狱里的,可见战力肯定都比不上他,那么这些囚犯又能为他提供多少战斗帮助? Can improve on perfection, is very difficult to give opportune help! 可以锦上添花,很难雪中送炭! But option two differences. 而选项二则不同。 Through absorbing cultivation base and divine ability of prisoner, not only can continually enhance own basic strength, but can also promote the background of entire territory. 通过汲取囚犯的修为神通,不但可以不断提升自身的根本实力,还能提升整个领地的底蕴。 battle strength of prisoner may be inferior to Chen Gou, but if three walk together, one can be my teacher. 囚犯的战力可能会不如陈勾,但正所谓三人行必有我师 On for example Fang Changqing, Augustine and other Chen Gou defeated, although lost to him, but must acknowledge that these people have the original and powerful skill secret technique. 就比如方长青奥古斯丁陈勾的手下败将,虽然输给了他,但也不能不承认这些人都有独到而强悍的技能秘术。 Although due to the irresistible reason, Law Divine Class incomplete, Chen Gou actually does not care. 虽然由于不可抗拒的原因,法则神职不完整,陈勾却并不是十分在意。 Compares in summoning the prisoner fights, he to exploiting to oppress the prisoner to be interested. 相比于召唤囚犯战斗,他本来就对剥削压迫囚犯更感兴趣。 He also has bloodlines skill Divine Bestowment, can make Law Divine Class advance become law Divine Authority, the limit sublimation. 况且他还有血脉技能封神,能让法则神职进阶法则神司,极限升华。 with this thought, Chen Gou also no longer thinks, goes out to see Lì Ji directly, explained that own choice, rephrased in own words to Mirror Marquis by Lì Ji again, 一念及此,陈勾也不再多想,直接出门去见郦姬,说明自己的选择,再由郦姬镜侯转述, Mirror Marquis taking constant care of many affairs of sate, to her, Chen Gou now is also only a junior, does not want to see momentarily can see. 镜侯“日理万机”,对她来说,陈勾现在还只是个小辈而已,可不是随时想见就能见。 Lì Ji naturally incomparably cared to son's matter, does not have/leave for quite a while, brought a token to come back, was Divine Prison Warden class change token sign. 郦姬对儿子的事自然无比关心,不出半天,就带着一块令牌回来了,正是“神狱典狱长”的转职令牌。 This type of token, first is the artificial refinement, then places in Divine Prison to provide, absorbs the strength of law source(s). 这种令牌,先是人为炼制,而后放在神狱之中供养,吸收法则本源之力。 Over time, under accumulates over a long period of time becomes item that can activate corresponding Law Divine Class. 随着时间推移,日积月累之下就会成为可以激活相应法则神职的道具。 In the hand grasps the token to size up, in the Chen Gou heart lived a subtle feeling suddenly...... 手中握着令牌打量,陈勾心中忽然生起了一种微妙的感觉…… He through Law Divine Class that Law Divine Class Conferring Token of system reward confers, as if has an extremely subtle similar feeling with Bixiang Divine Kingdom Law Divine Class. 他通过系统奖励的法职册封令牌册封的法则神职,和毕襄神国法职似乎有一种极其微妙的相似感。 This provoked the thought to him, later the organizational structures of Flower Island and even other territories, should confer what Divine Class, can definitely imitate Mountains and Seas Divine Dynasty, most makes the revision slightly. 这给他打开了思路,以后花岛乃至其它领地的组织架构,该册封什么神职,完全可以仿照山海神朝,最多稍作修改而已。 Cloud Guard first used the token, stimulates Law Divine Class Divine Prison Warden, then Chen Gou uses bloodlines skill Emperor Divine Disaster Bestowment Heavenly Emperor Divine Bestowment attribute Divine Bestowment. 云守先是把令牌用了,激发法则神职神狱典狱长”,接着陈勾用血脉技能“帝封神灾”的天帝封神属性封神 Why about must Cloud Guard gods, Chen Gou also be considered that over and over makes the decision finally. 关于要将云守封为何种神明,陈勾也是思虑再三才最终做出决定。 Actually, the Divine Bestowment specific name is not essential, what is essential points out a sublimation direction. 其实,封神的具体名字并不关键,关键的是指出一个升华方向。 But what Chen Gou ponders, is Divine Prison really only an exploitation imprisons the place of captive criminal? 陈勾思考的是,神狱真的只是一个剥削囚禁俘虏罪犯的地方吗? People build the prison, what at first is the most primitive goal? 人们建立监狱,最初最原始的目的又是什么? After ponder long time, Chen Gou gradually looking pensive, and made the decision. 沉思良久之后,陈勾渐渐若有所思,并作出了决定。 But final result, within his anticipation , many pleasantly surprised. 而最终的结果,既在他的期待之内,也有不少惊喜。 Saint graciousness Divine Prison Warden: law Divine Authority 【圣恩神狱典狱长:法则神司 Divine Authority specialty 1: Divine Might like Prison —— chooses a seal independent space to establish Divine Prison, any by the person who oneself defeat, once loses the resistance ability, but all was imprisoned in Divine Prison directly!】 神司专长一:神威如狱——选择一个封闭独立的空间建立神狱,凡是被自身打败的人,一旦失去反抗能力,皆可直接被囚禁到神狱之中!】 Note 1: Regardless of Divine Prison situated in which world, regardless of oneself are separated by far with it, every 24 hours, can open directly one time the channel to Divine Prison, the detained goal will send in Divine Prison to detain.】 【备注一:无论神狱位于哪个世界,无论自身与之相隔多远,每隔24小时,都可以直接打开一次通往神狱的通道,将被拘禁的目标送入神狱关押。】 Note 2: Divine Prison seal level is extremely high, once were delivered, is almost impossible to escape!】 【备注二:神狱封印等阶极高,一旦被送进去,便几乎不可能逃脱!】 Divine Authority specialty 2: Divine Punishment like Abyss —— everything was detained the prisoner in Divine Prison, its strength continuous was eliminated to pull out leaves, divine ability law that once in a while its grasps, will appear above Divine Prison auto-building Prison Codex automatically.】 神司专长二:神罚如渊——凡是被关押在神狱中的囚犯,其力量都将源源不断的被剥夺抽离,每隔一段时间其所掌握的神通法则,也将自动出现在神狱自动生成的狱典之上。】 Note 1: Eliminated strength, can condense is law source crystal, may transport to great formation in directly, is the revolution of law great formation provides the energy.】 【备注一:被剥夺的力量,将可以凝聚为法则源晶,也可直接输送到大阵之中,为法则大阵的运转提供能量。】 Note 2: Prison Codex records the divine ability secret technique of prisoner, does not get it done in one action, the need time collects slowly.】 【备注二:狱典记录囚犯的神通秘术,不是一蹴而就,需要时间慢慢收集。】 Divine Authority specialty 3: if Divine Grace like Sea —— were detained the prisoner in Divine Prison, is willing to pledge allegiance to make reparations under the divine grace impel, then may stay behind after Prison Codex life and death contracts seal, becomes the Divine Prison attached prison guard or the prison official.】 神司专长三:神恩如海——如果被关押在神狱中的囚犯,在神恩感召下愿意归顺赎罪,则可在狱典上留下生死缔印之后,成为神狱附属的狱卒或狱官。】 Note 1: the divine grace persuasion is soul level convert, pledges allegiance to submit to from the innermost feelings.】 【备注一:神恩感化是灵魂层面的度化,从内心归顺臣服。】 Note 2: After concluding the life and death seal, Prison Codex may read decides all forming seal life and death!】 【备注二:缔结生死印后,狱典将可一念决定所有结印者的生死!】 Appraisal: One such as the Divine Prison deep as sea, is kneeling either living, either is lying down dying!】 【评价:一如神狱深似海,要么跪着生,要么躺着死!】 The exclusive ability are not many, altogether three, but completely key and exists regarding Divine Prison this. 专属能力不多,总共才三个而已,但全部是围绕神狱这个重点而存在。 First specialty Divine Might like Prison, establishes Divine Prison. 首先专长一神威如狱,是建立神狱 Must decide by Chen Gou including the Divine Prison address, the shape structure. 包括神狱的地址、外形结构等都要由陈勾自己来决定。 The words of address, currently have to only have two choices. 地址的话,目前有应该只有两种选择。 Or in Flower Island, either in the territory that in Classic of Mountains and Seas God World will soon obtain. 要么是在花岛,要么是在山海神界之中即将获得的领地。 Reason that did not consider that Zhu Xian, Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio and other world , because Divine Prison not only detains the place of prisoner, will also have powerful battle strength, provides the tremendous assistance for the territory that the protection is. 之所以不考虑诛仙聊斋等世界,是因为神狱不但是关押囚犯的地方,还将拥有非常强大的战力,为守护所在的领地提供巨大帮助。 But Flower Island and Classic of Mountains and Seas God World, is the environment is relatively bad, moreover most important territory. 花岛山海神界,又是所处环境相对恶劣,而且又最重要的领地。 The shape structure refers to Divine Prison structure, such as dungeon, pagoda and cave wait/etc. 外形结构则是指神狱的的构造,如地牢型、宝塔型、山洞型等等。 Establishment that which type regardless, needs to start from the beginning. 无论哪一种,都需要自己一切从头开始的建立。 Moreover, defense from exterior attack, needs to improve...... Divine Prison only to suppress is detained in prisoner, made its inescapable, regarding coming from the attack of outside world, did not have the extra resistance. 而且,来自外部袭击的防御,也需要自己完善……神狱只能镇压被关押在其中的囚犯,令其无法逃脱,对于来自外界的袭击,却没有额外的抵抗能力。 Divine Might like Prison most important attribute, is where regardless of Divine Prison constructs, Cloud Guard in any world, can open space gate to Divine Prison every day, the captured prisoner will throw directly. 神威如狱最重要的一个属性,是无论神狱建在哪里,云守在任何一个世界,每天都能打开一个通往神狱空间之门,将被俘虏的囚犯直接扔进去。 However, this space gate can only the prisoner transmission in the past...... 不过,这道空间之门只能将囚犯传送过去…… Next specialty two Divine Punishment like Abyss, are mainly plunders prisoner cultivation base and divine ability secret technique ability. 其次专长二神罚如渊,主要就是掠夺囚犯修为神通秘法的能力。 However what is different from the Chen Gou estimate, is not direct killing the goose that lays the golden eggs -type drains the prisoner, but can the control speed. 不过和陈勾预想中不同的是,不是直接竭泽而渔式的将囚犯抽干,而是可以控制速度。 So long as is not pulls out too ruthlessly, can definitely let the prisoners absorbs heaven and earth spiritual qi restoring, while extracts to plunder its strength slowly. 只要不是抽得太狠,完全可以让囚犯们一边吸收天地灵气恢复,一边慢慢抽取掠夺其力量 And, these cultivation base strength that extracts from prisoner within the body, not only can condense law source crystal, but can also transport to law great formation in directly. 并且,这些从囚犯体内抽取出的修为力量,不只可以凝聚成法则源晶,还可以直接输送到法则大阵中去。 In other words, Divine Prison can definitely provide the energy for the entire territory, moreover hardly needs to consume anything. 也就是说,一座神狱完全可以为整个领地提供能量,而且还几乎不需要消耗任何东西。 tempering has above Dao Body Demigod Realm to exist, has fully achieved fasting realm, no longer needs any food, absorbs heaven and earth spiritual qi to maintain the life merely. 淬炼道体半神境以上存在,已经完全达到辟谷境界,不再需要任何食物,仅仅吸收天地灵气就可以维持生命。 Therefore, this is legendary...... 所以,这就是传说中的…… Perpetual motion machine! 永动机! Finally specialty three Divine Grace like Sea, this is most stems from Chen Gou to expect attribute. 最后专长三神恩如海,这是最出乎陈勾预料到一个属性 Can brainwash to subdue the prisoner impressively from inside to outside, in turn becomes Divine Prison to suppress the prisoner running dog accomplice! 赫然是能将囚犯从里到外的洗脑收服,反过来成为神狱镇压囚徒的走狗帮凶! Chen Gou felt faintly, this is the Divine Prison maximum value is possibly. 陈勾隐隐感觉,这可能才是神狱最大的价值所在。 Overall, the law Divine Authority of Chen Gou to Cloud Guard is quite satisfied. 总体而言,陈勾云守的这个法则神司是相当满意的。 In the long run, Disaster Averting Shaman Ancestor, Sun Goddess and Ghost Idol Tathagata promotion of law Divine Authority to battle strength already enough big, did not miss Golden Light Cloud Guard auxiliary Divine Authority to provide battle strength. 从长远来看,禳命巫祖太阳女神鬼相如来法则神司战力的提升都已经足够大,并不差金光云守一个辅助的神司提供战力了。 Divine Prison Warden like this focusing on growth Divine Class will be instead better. 有一个“神狱典狱长”这样以“发育”为主的神职反而会更好。 Just, this Divine Authority unusual place is, must first establish Divine Prison. 只不过,这个神司与众不同的地方在于,得先建立一座神狱 Therefore, Chen Gou can only wait for Mountain Range Divine Guard assessment battle to finish either, after obtaining the Mountains and Seas territory constructs, either returns to Blue Billows , after simply begins to establish. 所以,陈勾只能要么等连山神卫考核之战结束,得到山海领地后修建,要么干脆回到沧澜后再着手建立。 Although cannot obtain battle strength to sublimate from law Divine Authority temporarily, but the birth of Golden Light Cloud Guard, still made Chen Gou battle strength have a big promotion. 虽然暂时没能从法则神司中得到战力升华,但金光云守的诞生,依然让陈勾战力有了不小的提升。 Therefore, regarding forthcoming Flame God Clan younger generation the war of top-rank Heaven's Chosen, in his tactic attaches great importance to about oneself is also confident. 所以,对于即将到来的炎神族年轻一代的顶级天骄之战,他战术上重视的同时也对自己充满信心。 Several days of time in a hurry...... 几天时间匆匆而过…… On this day, the Divine Capital Yanling person Mountains and Seas huge crowd, the selection of Mountain Range Divine Guard finally starts. 这一日,神都炎陵山海人海,连山神卫的选拔终于开始。 Mountain Range Divine Guard examination official there, does not accept any private registration, all participants can only through the recommendation participation of tribe clan. 连山神卫考官那里,是不接受任何私人报名的,所有参加者都只能通过部落氏族的举荐参与。 The quota nature that not same grade tribe, can recommend is different, 1st grade are most, 9th grade is lowest. 同品阶部族,可以举荐的名额自然不同,一品最多,九品最低。 In Classic of Mountains and Seas God World, each Flame God Clan person stems from tribe, almost does not have the exception, only if oneself tribe, because the population are too few has exterminated the clan, in the in the divine capital Flame God Clan spectrum was removed. 山海神界内,每一个炎神族人都出自部落,几乎没有例外,除非自家部族由于人数太少已经灭族,在神都炎神族谱上被除名了。 At this time, his remnant clansman, even if had natural talent peerless, can only offer services to other tribe, participated taking advantage of its quota. 这个时候,其残余族人纵然有天资绝世者,就只能投效到其它部落,借其名额参加。 Some tribe, the temporary shortage in the clan, this generation does not have young Heaven's Chosen the time, will accept this offering services, making it replace this clan to go to battle. 有的部落,在族内青黄不接,这一代没有年轻天骄的时候,就会接受这种投效,令其代替本族出战。 Because of the each time Mountain Range Divine Guard selection war, in fact also relates to the assignments of future some time certain benefits. 因为每一次连山神卫选拔战,实际上也关系到将来一段时间内某些利益的分配。 Goes to battle with the juniors result to rank, naturally can assign to more benefits. 出战子弟成绩排名好的,自然就能分配到更多的利益。 Since this method since the Flame Emperor time spreads, in quite alleviated the battles among various clans to a certain extent. 这个方法自炎帝时代流传至今,在相当一定程度上缓解了各族之间的争斗。 Chen Gou here, naturally joins through the recommendation of Lì Clan. 陈勾这里,自然是通过郦族的举荐加入。 Lì Clan such 2nd grade tribe altogether two avoid the preliminary test and second examination, directly enter the quota of finally selecting, 1st grade tribe is three, 3rd grade tribe is one. 郦氏这样的二品部族总共有两个免于初试和复试,直接进入最终选拔的名额,一品部族则是三个,三品部族是一个。 It seems like not many, but, can enter selects assessment finally, altogether also only has 50 people. 看似不多,但要知道,能够进入最终选拔考核的,总共也只有五十个人不到而已。 Is equal to 3rd grade tribe, divided most probably, the remaining 20 quotas, will strive for by several thousand various talent juniors of tribe recommendations. 等于上三品的部族,就分走了大半,剩下的二十个名额,将由数千名各部族推举的天才子弟争夺。 Therefore can say, each quota needs to experience struggles hard layer on layer/heavily, after beating at least over a hundred of the same generation competitors, can obtain difficultly. 故而可以说,每一个名额都需要经历重重苦战,击败至少上百个同辈竞争者之后,才能艰难得到。 As for the assessment place, comes as a surprise to most people finally, almost shocks entire divine capital. 至于最终考核的地点,出乎绝大多数人的预料,差不多震惊整个神都 Because the place impressively is Southern Wilderness northwest corner, place of Western Wilderness bordering on God Burial Mountain. 因为地点赫然是南荒西北角,与西荒接壤之地的葬神山 This mountain in the name of "God Burial", obviously its bad risk and uncommonness. 此山既以“葬神”为名,可见其凶险与不凡。 Not only the region length and breadth, after supposing is Divine Territory, top-rank Divine Body that can activate known has more than three types! 不但地域广袤,设为神域后,能够激活的顶级神体已知的就有不下三种! But is actually located above the border, belongs with the Western Wilderness Metal God Clan dispute territory. 但却位于边境之上,属于和西荒金神族的争议领土。 Now although grasps in the Flame God Clan hand, but two clans often have the friction for this territory in recent years. 如今虽然掌握在炎神族手中,但近些年两族为这块领地时常发生摩擦。 Therefore, the Divine Dynasty giants this Mountain Range Guard assessment place, and territory of final reward place God Burial Mountain profound meaning since parting, was worth pondering. 所以,神朝巨头们将这次连山卫考核的地点,以及最后奖励的领地放在“葬神山”别后的深意,就十分值得玩味了。 Various views cause a clamor, the conspiracy theory emerges one after another incessantly. 各种说法甚嚣尘上,阴谋论层出不穷。 No matter what, even the mountains as selects assessment to hold as scheduled, after enters the assessment people come out finally, with one and by the direct transmission that sending enters God Burial Mountain. 但不管怎样,连山身为选拔考核如期举行,等所进入最终考核的人都决出后,将和“报送”进入的一并被直接传送到葬神山 Chen Gou besides preparation, in the heart the mood is more complex than everyone. 陈勾除了备战之外,心中情绪比所有人都复杂。 Because, is labeled as sin clan later Flame Emperor lineage/vein most clansmen, in God Burial Mountain is battle slave! 因为,被打为罪族之后的炎帝一脉大部分族人,都在葬神山战奴
