Chapter 561 Unexpected harvest
With the elimination of the snake god Yige, the exploration of the underground snake empire came to an end. Duanmuhuai asked the puppets to check all the underground ruins, and after confirming that all the monsters had been killed, they put all their corpses together, and then used the black flame to completely dispose of them.
Of course, with the death of the snake god, most of the snake people in other places will also die. Although there may be some lucky ones who survived, but without the protection of the gods of the race, these guys can't make any waves.
In addition, in the snakeman's lair, Duanmuhuai and the others also found a diary left by a victim a long time ago, which recorded the reason for this tunnel—it turned out that before this, the mansion Belonging to a slave smuggler. In order to avoid being discovered by the authorities, he deliberately dug this secret passage under his mansion. It was originally intended to lead to the outside of the city, but he didn't know whether it was luck or misfortune on the way, and he accidentally dug through the snake man's cave.
From a certain point of view, it is God's will that the slave trader's snake head dug into the snake man's cave.
Although the tunnel was dug, the business was not going well, because several slaves were smuggled and disappeared halfway, and even the guards did not come back.
So the furious snake head took people to check the situation in person, and then they followed the snake man's cave to the snake man's lair—then they were caught by the snake man.
But these people were not directly killed. On the contrary, the men were killed by the snake people as sacrifices to the snake god, while the women were left by the snake people to reproduce. In fact, the white ape-like monsters that Duanmuhuai and the others saw before were the children born between snake people and humans... Well, this group of snake people really resembles goblins.
Of course, it is useless to say these things now, the recorder of the diary has long since died, the snake god has died, and the snake man has also died. It can only be said that it has been proved once again that the minds of non-my race must be different, and all aliens are different. The correctness of the basic policy of the Inquisition must be genocide.
As for what to do with the ruins—Duanmu Huai asked Mary to call Professor Palmer and ask him to take charge of the investigation and excavation here. Now that the snake god is dead, it is not a bad idea to keep this ruin. In fact, making human beings more or less aware of some things will also make them psychologically prepared, right?
After receiving Mary's call, Professor Palmer was naturally ecstatic, and said that he would immediately lead the team to Cornwall—after all, excavating ruins is a first-come, first-served thing, and Professor Palmer himself is a middle-class scholar , Fame is mediocre, if someone intercepts him halfway, it will be the end. So he also knows how to seize the opportunity, and immediately organizes the team to set off after hanging up the phone... Of course, since it is by train, there is no need to worry that he will pass through a murderous hotel.
Mary was in charge of responding to Professor Palmer, while Duanmuhuai briefly reported the incident to the client—yes, in simple terms, the culprit had been eliminated and the matter had been resolved.
It's that simple.
Although Earl Best still seemed to have some doubts, Duanmuhuai didn't care. What had to be done had already been done, and then time could only tell. Anyway, he didn't lack this little money, not to mention that after killing the snake god Yige this time, Duanmu Huai also gained quite outstanding abilities.
"drink----!"
Duanmu Huai stretched out his right hand, and the next moment, his right palm suddenly changed into several twisted translucent tentacles, which stretched forward, entangled tightly on the wine bottle, and then smashed it to pieces.
That's right, this is what Duanmuhuai got [Epolieta's Omen]. As the ability description says, it can turn any part of Duanmuhuai's body into a limb of the old ruler—in simple terms , is the tentacle.
"Well, this is quite useful."
Duanmuhuai nodded, then thought about it carefully, and then his bald head also grew hairs that stretched automatically, and then turned into long tentacles --- it looked like a snake with a head full of hair. Medusa-like hair.
"That's a little bit off."
Looking at the squirming hair, Duanmuhuai also panicked, and decisively released the form.
but……………
"If only it could be used like this."
Duanmu Huai clenched his fists as he spoke. After obtaining this ability, Duanmuhuai thought of many ways to use it. Among them, Duanmuhuai thinks the best way is to use a tentacle to restrain the enemy, and then shoot Euler at the opponent, so that he will not be afraid at all. The enemy will be knocked into the air, and it can be killed directly by Euler.
There's just one small problem.
"I only have two hands."
Duanmu Huai looked at his left and right hands, he wanted to use his fists to hit the enemy, so naturally he didn't have a third hand.
Um?
correct!
Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai's eyes flashed, and then he clenched his fists tightly. Afterwards, several thick tentacles suddenly emerged from between his buttocks, grabbing forward!
“……………………”
Not feeling right?
Forget it, it feels weird to use it against a man, and if the other party uses some method to cut off the tentacles, then I...
Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai only felt a cold on his back and a cold on his crotch.
Or think of other ways.
Duanmu Huai silently retracted his tentacles again.
It's rare to get a good skill, can it only be used on Suzume or Kanami?
This is too wasteful......
"Boom boom boom."
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and then Mary's voice came from outside the door.
"Mr. Duanmu, are you there?"
"Oh, I'm here."
Duanmu Huai put away his tentacles, moved his limbs, and then spoke. And Mary opened the door, and walked in.
"How is the situation with Professor Palmer?"
"After seeing the ruins, he was very excited, saying that they could fill in the gaps in ancient history... Is it really all right? Take those things out?"
Mary followed Duanmuhuai to fight against the snake people, and she also read the diary, so she naturally knew how terrifying these monsters were.
"It doesn't matter, the snake gods are dead now, they are no different from the extinct dinosaurs, and they are no harm to humans. On the contrary, it would be better to study more. At least it can let humans know more about this aspect, instead of simply being passive Accept that they exist."
The more humans know, the easier it is to develop resistance to these monsters. This is another reason why Lorena sees that these monsters don't drop San very much.
"But you must be the first discoverer, and you can't compromise on this."
"Eh? Me, but...it's Mr. Duanmu, you..."
"Neither Lorena nor I have a need for this. You are a student of the History Department, right? Isn't this a very important record for you?"
This is also one of the conditions proposed by Duanmuhuai and Professor Palmer, which is to let Mary be the first discoverer of the ruins. Mary is a student of the Department of History, and she is a major in archaeology. The discovery of the ruins can be said to be a matter of course, and even a bit legendary.
how to say.
It's like a biology student stumbles upon an entirely new species.
Or like a medical student discovering a hidden serious illness during clinical practice.
For students, this is a very compelling thing.
Of course, this kind of thing is probably not very famous outside, but within the academic circle, Mary can rely on this to get ahead. At least, with this qualification, others will look up to her, which is also good for Mary's future academic development.
Just like Watson, although he is said to be a book writer, isn't his full-time job also a military doctor?
Being a military doctor doesn't affect Watson and Holmes to solve the case, doesn't it?
After handing over the matter of the relics to Professor Palmer and his team, Duanmuhuai and others left Cornwall, and Mary returned to Wudu and began to write about the two adventures and compile them into a book. But Duanmu Huai did not sit idle. After resting in the fog for a few days, he turned around and quietly went to Yellowstone Park.
And Duanmuhuai came here for only one purpose.
"It should be around here."
Strolling in the woods of Yellowstone Park, looking at the Yellowstone Volcano not far away, Duanmuhuai looked around. His purpose of coming here is very simple, that is to find the headquarters of the foundation, and then steal the "Mechanical God".
No, how can the matter of the blood duck be called stealing?
"Come on, try it."
The use of "Heart of Blood Raven" is very simple, as long as you go near the designated place and use "Heart of Blood Raven", the player has a chance to get something. Of course, if you can see what you're about to steal, you might be able to get it into your hands without anyone noticing.
But if you don't have one, it's basically a random thing to see what you can get.
Duanmuhuai remembered that the foundation base was right under the Yellowstone Volcano, and he had already walked to the side. Logically speaking, the foundation base should be under his feet.
So……………
"Heart of the Blood Raven."
While speaking, Duanmuhuai clenched his right hand tightly, and the next moment, he felt something silently added to his hand. So Duanmuhuai excitedly opened his hand and looked at the palm.
“……………………”
It's guano.
MMP, got off to a bad start, let's do it again.
After washing his hands with mineral water, Duanmuhuai tried again.
"Heart of the Blood Raven!"
…………………
A pen, well, at least it can prove that my guess is correct, at least no pens can grow on the ground of Yellowstone Park.
"Heart of the Blood Raven!"
A steaming cup of coffee, what do I need?
Again!
…………………eraser?
Come again!
……………love letter? Did you live so well down here?
Come again!
…………
Until the sun went down, Duanmuhuai didn't find what he wanted, on the contrary, there was a pile of rubbish next to him.
Is my luck that bad?
Duanmuhuai looked at the mountain of garbage beside him speechlessly. There were A4 papers, pens, erasers, blackboards, several chairs, desks, a safe, some records, and even surveillance cameras and diapers... umm, Duanmuhuai is sure that he absolutely does not want to know what research these foundation members are doing.
Do I have to empty it out? Although it's not like Blood Duck hasn't done similar things before...
While thinking this way, Duanmu Huai stretched out his hand again... Huh?
What's this?
Feeling a different touch than before, Duanmuhuai raised his hand curiously, and then...
"Soul card?"
That's right, what appeared in Duanmuhuai's hand was a soul card.
【Mechagod (Legendary)】
[Consumption: 5]
【Attack: 4】
【Defense: 5】
[Effect: unknown]
【I am the god of machinery that controls cause and effect. If you want to make the world more stable, or bring about greater chaos, everything is your freedom... Come on, what do you want? 】
【Sealed】
"There really is a mechanical descendant?"
Looking at the cards in his hand, Duanmu Huai was also taken aback. Although the players in the forum did mention this, but because no one has ever got it, Duanmu Huai just tried to see it. In fact, he originally planned to give up and go back if he couldn't do it, and then bought the blueprint of the reality anchor from the foundation and slowly studied it by himself.
It's just that I didn't expect that it was really unintentional, and I actually got it.
"Woo............Woo.........!!!"
At the same time, suddenly, a sharp siren sounded, echoing over the Yellowstone Volcano. At the same time, the lights below the mountain also flickered suddenly, and it was obvious that the Foundation had also discovered that its biggest trump card was missing.
“……………………”
Slip away, when will you wait if you don't run now?
Thinking of this, Duanmuhuai took a few steps back, and then he completely disappeared into the darkness like this, without a trace.
