Chapter 35: The Premonition of Being Targeted by the Snake
ยท
After eating and drinking, Yuan Huang was in a very good mood.
He began to inspect the intruder's bag. At that time, he caught Rin in the hall, so he threw all the belongings he found in place. Now it's next to the source phoenix.
He stared at a small, thin metal stick, the size of a finger, intricately carved and looking like it had a lot of mechanisms.
Sister Bed fell asleep, and had said that many of the scattered things on the floor of the hall were weapons, and Yuan Huang felt that he would try again tomorrow so as not to injure himself by mistake. Of course, I wouldn't give up my curiosity so honestly. He decided to try it out for a moment to see something else that definitely looked like a Celestial Staff, similar in construction to an ionization rifle, but much shorter.
Actually hidden in the folds of the cuffs, when did you do it? If it weren't for Sister Bed's sharp eyes to see it, it would really be stolen.
He placed the contents of Rin's bag on the table one by one. One mid-tier healing potion, one unidentified liquid, two seeds of several kinds, two packs and a metal military kettle, a snake and voice changer, and 27 silver coins.
and other completely different, intricately crafted leather pouches, full of tools. Small pieces, up to a dozen professional tools.
He picked up a brush smaller than chopsticks and couldn't help but have some kind of speculation: "...... Could this be an archaeological paraphernalia? "On the inside of the leather tool bag, a emblem was also found, which was a snake pattern, which was somewhat familiar.
I think I've seen this emblem in the newspapers...... Could it be the "temple snake"?
After recalling it carefully, Yuan Huang knew that it was not good. It is indeed the emblem of the "temple snake".
The "Temple Snake" is famous among the few official archaeological teams. Not only because of their size, strength, and activity, but also because of their unusually entangled style. When Yuan Huang was wandering around the big city three years ago, he occasionally heard ruffians talking about the "temple snake". The impression left on him is that revenge will be avenged, and he will never give up when he targets his prey. In fact, the "Temple Snake" often clashes with teams such as thieves, and has a very strong sense of revenge.
It can't be true, right?
Thinking of this, Yuan Huang put on his mask and went to the glass cell where Xun Rin was.
He carried the small leather bag with the emblem on it and asked, "You two are both "temple snakes"?" โ
Xun Rin nodded.
"It is rumored that the head of your family has done many terrible things, especially in terms of revenge." Yuan Huang couldn't help but ask Xun Rin for confirmation of the anecdote he had heard a long time ago, "Because the island where the destination of an archaeological work is located is occupied by a group of pirates, you and the other party have not negotiated a dispute. Because you killed one of your regiments, you not only wiped out more than 30 pirates on the island, but also killed as many as five dens, totaling more than 400 people, as a sign of revenge for your comrades? โ
"It's my eldest brother who died. At that time, the regimental commander hung the body of the pirate leader on the mast, and never put it down. The strip of rag tied to the top of the mast is the remnants of the other party's clothes, after years of wind and rain. โ
โโฆโฆโ
"At that time, the head of the regiment was probably only fifteen or sixteen years old."
Although Yuan Huang didn't say anything, he thought to himself that it was good that he didn't kill Xun Rin. The Temple Snake is so famous for its extraordinary vindictiveness that even the ruffians in the town know it. His goal was to become an archmage, and he didn't want to get in the way of his business by those crazy people. At the same time, I thought it was really bad. It is not good to find out who the person in the Heavenly Palace is, but it is the "Temple Snake", who specializes in eating this bowl of rice. It is conceivable that after letting Di Zhixue go, their regimental leader will definitely not let go of exploring this palace easily.
โฆโฆ I don't know how long I can hide from this place in the ground.
Yuan Huang suddenly had a strong sense of crisis. Is he going to face forty enemies alone? Even with ionizing rifles......
Seeing the lord of the palace who fell into deep thought just after asking this question, Xun Rin was a little surprised.
He didn't expect that the people who came down from the sky would actually know the name of the "temple snake". Is it someone from the Starfall Continent, or an omniscient celestial? The only thing that is certain is that the lord of the palace is also worried about revenge by the head of the regiment? The regimental commander is really great.
Yuan Huang was worried that one day he would have to take on forty elites alone, so he was in no mood to ask. "One last thing โ why did you take cover and the other person escaped? Isn't it common sense that the elders should let the younger companions escape, and it looks like you'll be able to escape faster. Is he the deputy head of the regiment or something? โ
"All of us are mentally prepared to die for work, regardless of age. Just because in general, archers have a restraining effect on mages. Originally, it was intended to shoot and kill before you cast your magic. "Of course, who would have thought that the lord of the palace would be invulnerable.
Although he still has a lot of questions, he probably can't know more if he doesn't do something like torture, but he doesn't know that kind of technique. The most he wanted to know at the moment was where his companion had fled, but Rin would definitely not say.
Yuan Huang left.
Xun Rin also wanted to know if Di Zhixue had succeeded in escaping, but looking at the atmosphere, he probably succeeded. Other...... As a prisoner, he was not qualified to ask questions.
There is nothing to complain about.
At the same time that Sister Bed was preparing dinner for Yuan Huang, two high platforms were also raised in Xun Rin's cell, which contained water and food.
The water tasted good, was very clean and must have been magically filtered.
This water container is very strange - it is neither glass nor crystal, it is not so hard and transparent, and it is about half a meter long. It rose above Yuanhuang's chest, and then a metal water pipe protruded diagonally from under the container. The key singularity is that there is a metal ball blocking the mouth of the water pipe. Xun Rin had to stick out her tongue to lick the ball before the water could come out.
The problem is the posture!
He bent over, tilted his head, and kept licking the ball. Water is delicious, but why is there always a feeling of giving water to livestock? Even if you look up...... It always felt like this was not a device built to make humans drink water.
The food tasted delicious, even to the point where it made him feel like it would be nice to go to jail forever.
The food was a very disgusting-looking green gooy, like porridge with less water. Super like the feces of some kind of herbivore. The slimy green food is served on a lightweight, transparent plate made of the same material as a water container, but with a firm grip on the floor. Probably because he was worried that the prisoner would pick it up and use it as a murder weapon, no, such a light and not hard material can hurt people, so why should it be fixed on the ground? It's not always the worry of being stepped on, right?
The question is still posture!
He had to lie on the ground and dig through the food with his hands. It tastes like meat and vegetables are mixed with delicious spices and then chopped and stirred, but it's actually delicious. It was not surprising that he, as a prisoner, had to eat in such an ugly position. But I always feel that it was not built for the convenience of human food.
The containers were all raised from the floor and lowered back again.
It is worth mentioning that when Yuan Huang left, Xun Rin inadvertently scratched his head twice. It's not because of the itch, it's just a subconscious action that feels awkward.
Five metal tentacles came out of the floor!
Lisso stripped him of his clothes and sprayed him with water. He thought it was the same as the water magic in the cell, but the water was very warm, and it didn't hurt to smash, so it was super comfortable. Then he sprayed the liquid that seemed to be soap melted all over his body, and he didn't feel pain if he accidentally got into his eyes.
What happened next was amazing. The ends of the five tentacles turned into the five fingers of a human and began to grope for his body and hair.
For a long time.
The spray of water washes off the foam all over the body, and the warm wind of wind magic blows to dry the body quickly.
Be dressed.
The tentacles burrowed back to the floor again, as if nothing had happened. In addition to the freshness on the body.
โฆโฆ Did you just bathe me, who is a prisoner? Funny, right? How do I think of brushing the backs of cows in my hometown?
Is this really a prison cell?
Rin's suspicions are very keen. Neither he nor Genhuang knew that the original intention of this "observation room" was actually to raise kidnapped alien creatures. It's the kind of facility that uses a ray of light to take away the cows and raise them here. That's why Sister Bed said that this is not a prison cell.
