Chapter 1110: The Man Behind the Scenes
The runes on it came from an ancient script, which was difficult and obscure, and in the beginning, it took scholars almost weeks to translate each word, not to mention that there were some ancient magic runes mixed with it, and deciphering it was definitely a difficult systematic project.
Fortunately, this kind of thing is always the hardest at the beginning, and as more and more things are cracked, the process becomes easier and easier.
At this time, Lu Kuan was holding the two scrolls, which clearly indicated the location of the Golden Flying City and the Silver Wing Flying City, among which the Golden Flying City was speculated in various ancient records to be the least damaged in the Great Tribulation, that is, it was most likely to have a complete color-resistant core.
"Good things come in pairs~"
Lu Kuan played with the scroll in his hand, and thought with a smile: "If the Steel City can find the color-resistant core here, then the tasks of the Golden Flying City and the Silver Wing Flying City will not be stressful, anyway, even if you get two color-resistant cores, the current Rune City does not have the strength to make two floating cities at the same time~"
With the experience of his previous life, Lu Kuan knew how rare the color-resistant core was, and even knew that even if he got his hands on this thing, it would definitely take some time to transform it into a tangible and tangible benefit, unless you sold it after you changed hands.
Lu Kuan was thinking about it, a white light lit up silently in the air, Dan En stepped out, stood in front of Lu Kuan and bowed down, and said, "Great Lord, fortunately, that thing will come out soon." ”
Lu Kuan stood up, nodded with a smile, and simply came to the entrance of the cave, but in just over ten seconds, the steel golem walked out, carrying an octopus-like thing in his hand.
This guy has a dark purple body, like a sea cucumber that has been beaten by someone, and he looks very miserable, with more than a dozen long tentacles hanging under him, and purple mucus dripping down.
At this time, there was a piercing wound in the center of this guy's body, as if it had been burned, the edges were charred black, and there was a faint smell of barbecue.
"That's it? He's dead? Lu Kuan asked Dann while looking curiously.
"Yes, it wanted to sneak attack me, and I killed it, but the body is parasitic in this monster's body, and it is still well preserved, and it seems that it has been trapped here for a long time."
Dane replied, then stretched out his withered right hand, reached into the wound and groped for a few times, and pulled out a sticky tadpole-like thing.
It's the body of the Soul Eater!
This one is a little smaller than the one I've seen before, with an oddly long tail, and nothing else special.
As if seeing Lu Kuan's doubts, Dan En used the fingers of his left hand to pull twice on the body of the Spirit Devouring Tailed Beast, and Lu Kuan took a closer look and suddenly found the difference.
In addition to the one eye on the other party's head, there are three smaller eyes directly above the body, which are tightly closed and covered with mucus, if it weren't for Dane's reminder, Lu Kuan wouldn't have found it at all.
"This is an elder-level Soul Eater, but as they get older, their eyes will increase, and as long as they can always find new and suitable parasitic targets, their lifespan is almost infinite,"
Dane explained to Lu Kuan: "This guy has been locked in a cage for thousands of years, and in order to prolong the life of the parasite, it is estimated that he has been in deep sleep, which means that when he was captured by Ilmanno, it is likely that he already had three eyes. ”
Lu Kuan was curious when he heard this: "How powerful are the three eyes?" ”
Dane thought for a moment and said, "Let's take the Firefeather Saker as an example, if it is this one in the Flamewalker clan, even if there are ten Firefeather Sakers, it will not be able to escape its erosion, and it will not take more than 10 years. ”
Lu Kuan was shocked when he heard this: Good guy, it is really the most terrifying of these yin players.
Dane also said that the cage that trapped the soul-eater-tailed beast was a rather spacious laboratory in itself, fully equipped and containing a large number of specimens of plants and animals, many of which were rare otherworldly creatures.
Hearing this, Lu Kuan had already reacted: "Could it be that the master of the Steel City caught this guy and wanted to do experiments?" ”
"Eighty percent of the time." Dane nodded.
Lu Kuan suddenly, after making trouble for a long time, this Spirit Devouring Tailed Beast has been alive for so long?
And as early as the period of the Naese Empire, some bigwigs had already thought of this kind of thing, so it is estimated that there are some great traits in the Spirit Devouring Tailed Beast that make Ilmanor and Dane attach so much importance to it.
"But isn't Ilmanor a golem expert? How did you change to biology? Lu Kuan couldn't figure this out.
Dann said calmly, "Looking at the equipment left in the laboratory, Ilmanor should be trying to combine machinery and powerful creatures. ”
Lu Kuan raised his eyebrows, and he didn't ask about the next things, but it is conceivable what Dane saw in the laboratory inside.
"Dane,"
Lu Kuan paused before saying: "Remember, passive mechanical transformation is allowed in Rune City, such as a person who lost his thigh leg in the war and missed the best time to cast the severed limb recontinuation spell, if you can install a mechanical leg for him in the future, I am in favor of it with both hands, and forget the rest...... You get the idea, right? ”
The high priest's face was still flat, and he bowed slightly and said, "Don't worry, Great Lord, so far, the goddess of nature has not abandoned me. ”
"Haha~That's good~" Lu Kuan said with a hearty smile, there are red lines in this regard in the game and in real life, Lu Kuan doesn't want Dan to develop too casually, and finally be erased by the system.
At the end of the conversation between the two, the Soul Eater Tailed Beast was captured, and Dane immediately transported it to the Mage Tower in Hat Hunting Town, where it was safely kept, and the excavation work on the side of the Vine Spirit Realm was no longer hindered, and the heat began in full swing.
And Lu Kuan spent half a day connecting the entire storyline of the Vine Spirit Realm.
The story begins with the Nexus Empire, when Ilmanor captured a live soul-eater-tailed beast for research, and it may not be long before the cataclysm struck and the Iron City was buried deep underground.
Most of the most dangerous species such as the Soul Eater Tail Beast will be killed after research, and it may usually be anesthetized or sealed, so when the disaster comes, all the people in the city will die, but only the Soul Eater in the cage will survive.
I don't know how many years have passed, it may have woken up on its own, or the seal was loosened, and the spiritual energy of the Spirit Devouring Tail Beast began to escape from it, just in time to meet the underground gnomes who came here.
The Soul Eater Tailed Beast should have been very weak at this time, and there was a giant dragon on the opposite side, so it began to move its spirit tentacles elsewhere.
As for the small one above, it may have also escaped from the Steel City, or it may have inadvertently fallen into the Vine Spirit Realm, but it doesn't matter, the important thing is that as soon as the two guys of the same clan meet, they quickly target the Flamewalker clan.
After a few hundred years, it seems that it will be completed, as long as the Ant-Man clan is brought out of civil strife and then annexed, it can be planned to break the protective shield and rescue the main body.
