Chapter 254: The Tool Scorpion
"The destination has arrived, and this is where the 'mudless cloud bricks' are located."
Killing thousands of scorpions along the way, Ling Fan finally came to the depths of the Death Desert.
"Boom"
A huge deep pit appeared in front of him, and the sea of sand returned to the stream, falling suddenly, forming a huge sand waterfall thousands of meters high, the sound was deafening, and the scene was very spectacular.
Not far from the sand fall, there is a wide sunken platform, and dozens of caves are opened on the four walls of the platform, and every few moments, hundreds of scorpions crawl out of the caves.
In the center of the platform, there is a brick-like object composed of clouds and gas, which is thought to be a "mudless cloud brick".
It's just that at this time, the red substance is wrapping around the mudless cloud bricks, like ropes tying the "mudless cloud bricks" in place.
A contradictory feeling that does not exist in the real world, but really exists in front of him, emerged in Ling Fan's perception.
"A familiar breath, this is the red origin substance."
The red origin substance appeared in front of Ling Fan's eyes again, and this substance was often accompanied by the conspiracy of the alien species.
Except for the Empress Clarna, who had gone to support the human powerhouse, and Ling Fan's mount, Xiaolu, several other ten-star contract beasts all expressed their desire to absorb this red substance in their soul connections.
What could make Ling Fan's contract beasts express this longing emotion was nothing but the red origin substance.
"Let's go."
As soon as Ling Fan's mind moved, the fawn instantly accelerated, and then jumped up, crossing an extremely graceful trajectory in the air, crossing a distance of hundreds of meters, and landing lightly on the platform behind the sand waterfall.
The smell of the human being and the vibrations produced instantly alarmed the scorpions on the platform, and the scorpions were in a commotion, but they did not rush up to send warmth to Ling Fan like their "heroic sacrifices".
"Click, click, click......"
With a slow rhythm, the tapping of feet and limbs on the floor of the platform made a crisp sound, and a scorpion man covered with long white hair appeared in front of Ling Fan's eyes.
"Oh?"
Ling Fan looked at the scorpion man in front of him with interest.
This scorpion man is different, in addition to his white hair, he also has four eyes of different sizes on his head.
The scorpion man has lived under the desert for a long time, his vision has deteriorated, and his eyes have turned into a few small black dots, while the scorpion man in front of him has four eyes, which can be described as standing out from the crowd.
The white-haired scorpion man stopped the scorpion's attack on Ling Fan, and the pupils of his four eyes spun and stared at Ling Fan, there was inquiry, fear, and more of a thick doubt in his eyes.
"You...... There should be no human being. ”
The white-haired scorpion man opened his mouth to speak, although he stumbled and slurred his words, but he was finally recognized by the system as a "language" and was translated.
Obviously, this white-haired scorpion man is a high-ranking existence among the scorpions, and he has the most critical language ability of a race, and he has a lot of wisdom.
An existence like the white-haired scorpion is the key to the evolution of a race into a civilization, otherwise, the scorpion will always be just a group of beasts.
"We, the scorpions, are willing...... Stop, human, stop attacking. ”
The white-haired scorpion man thought for a moment and continued:
"Pay sincerity, I'm willing to lift, this object."
The white-haired scorpion man pointed to the "mudless bricks" with a pair of appendages.
"This object, restricted, lifted, can be taken away by humans."
"Otherwise, it is impossible to take away, objects, humans, restrictions, impossible to lift."
Ling Fan smiled meaningfully:
"What you mean is that it is impossible for humans to lift the restrictions on the red substance on the 'mud-free bricks.'"
"Do you want to lift the restrictions of this 'Mud Cloud Brick' so that I can take the 'Mud Cloud Brick' in exchange for the peace of the Scorpion Clan in the Ten Thousand Clans Arena?"
"No mud, cloud brick ......"
The white-haired scorpion's four eyes of different sizes rolled.
"Yes, yes, I, that means, correct."
The white-haired scorpion man waved his appendages up and down, indicating that Ling Fan's comprehension was very strong, and that was what he meant.
The corners of Ling Fan's mouth raised slightly:
"To ensure your sincerity, I feel you need to clear up some of my little doubts."
"You, say."
"Do you know what this place is called?"
"All races, the arena."
Ling Fan continued to ask:
"You scorpion clans, did you know in advance that humans would enter the arena before the arena opened?"
The white-haired scorpion's four eyes were fixed on Ling Fan, and after a minute, he said:
"No, answer, question, your, this question, I can't say."
Ling Fan nodded in understanding, and then he asked:
"Okay, then let me change the question, is it related to this red substance that the scorpion clan can enter the arena of all races?"
"Can't answer, question, stop."
white-haired scorpion man says:
"That's enough, you ask."
"Restrictions, only I can lift."
"Trading, both sides are beneficial, otherwise, you will never get no, you can't get 'no mud, cloud bricks'".
The smile disappeared, and Ling Fan's expression became cold:
"You're smart."
"It should be a pivotal presence within the Scorpion Clan."
"It's a pity that you died, and it helped me even more."
Ling Fan had never thought of letting go of any xenomorphs, nor had he ever had the slightest idea of making any kind of transaction with xenos.
From beginning to end, Ling Fan's attitude towards the alien species was only one word, kill.
Without warning, a frost blow descended on the dense scorpions.
Most of the scorpions within a radius of two hundred meters were directly frozen, and some of the stronger scorpions were frozen in layers of frost.
The white-haired scorpion man was covered in frost that emitted endless cold aura, and he couldn't move for a while, his four eyes looked at Ling Fan in shock, full of doubt.
"You don't, you want, that thing, do you?"
Ling Fan looked at each other coldly, and did not answer the white-haired scorpion's question, Xiaoshu strode forward and blew the white-haired scorpion man with a few punches.
"It seems that my previous suspicions have been partially confirmed."
"The scorpion clan does know about the existence of human beings, and they know in advance that human beings will enter the arena of all races."
"There is a powerful existence hidden behind the scenes, knowing the existence of the Arena of All Races, aimed at the humans of the earth."
"In addition, it can be confirmed that the Red Origin Matter is the key item they use to break the rules of the Ascended Continent."
How can such beast-like scorpions, who don't even have a universal language, be able to compare their thinking to that of humans?
The question Ling Fan asked was not a specific question such as "what is the red substance" or "how did the scorpion clan enter the arena of all races".
Rather, it is a leading question, whether the scorpion person answers it or not, it can reveal some information.
For example, if you go to an interview, the examiner asks you, "With your current level, I'm afraid you can find a better company than our company, right?" ”
If your answer is "yes", it means that you are "in Cao Ying, and your heart is in Han"; If your answer is "no", then you are in a dilemma because of your ability or lack of self-confidence.
And if you say "I don't know" or "I don't know", you are suspected of refusing to answer.
If you answer this kind of inducing question directly, you will express your true thoughts no matter what you say.
In general, in intimate relationships, such problems often come from the mouths of women.
Lu Xun said: Women in love are a collection of contradictions and wrong logic. I have to say that there is some truth in this sentence.
Therefore, in response to this type of question, the positive answer is wrong, and the key to response can only be to answer vaguely, or change the topic and avoid answering.
Scorpions, after all, are just scorpions, a primitive beast-like civilization, how can they understand the key to Ling Fan's question.
For the two key questions asked by Ling Fan, the white-haired scorpion man replied "can't say" and "can't answer", which means that he knows, but he can't say it.
That's enough.
Now that Ling Fan has obtained enough information, then the scorpion man can go and die.
The poor white-haired scorpion man didn't know that he had become a "tool scorpion man", so he was torn apart and died in Huangquan with doubts and incomprehension.
