Chapter Seventy-Two: The Deep Diver
It wasn't long before Arya came out with little Ruby, who was sleeping in a daze, with only a few simple salutes.
She knew that Yang Hao's willingness to help them was already a great kindness, she was not a woman who didn't know what to do, and she didn't bring much at home.
Yang Hao asked their mother and daughter to ride black beans with him and hurried on the road.
was stopped by Jackson's servants at the entrance of the village, and Yang Hao only left a sentence
"The mission is already in sight, I'll go back and prepare first. My family is short of two maids, so I will take them away, and I ask Lord Jackson to help me with the cooperation. ”
Then he left the dust, leaving behind the embarrassed servant.
Arya and Xiao Lu didn't have any connections with Farya, so Yang Hao could only take them home.
Mother Yang was very happy about the arrival of the two, after all, Xiao Lubi was loved by everyone.
Every time Yang's mother educates Yang Hao, she laments why she didn't give birth to a daughter, and now she has got her wish.
"I'm sorry, but there's nowhere else now, so let's stay as a servant of my family first."
Yang Hao, as a modern person with a very positive outlook, was a little reluctant to accept Alia's mother and daughter as maids.
But this is the best thing for Alia, she has no life skills, it is difficult to find a job to support herself and her daughter, and now Yang Hao has solved the things she has been worried about before, which makes her overjoyed.
Regarding Yang Hao's words, Arya thought that Yang Hao didn't want them to have a burden in their hearts, and she was even more grateful to Yang Hao in her heart.
Yang Hao looked at Arya, who suddenly became extremely moved, and was a little at a loss, and didn't know how to deal with it, but fortunately, Lilian helped him out.
"Oh, look, just a few hours after going out and bringing back two, Geralt, aren't you afraid that your little girlfriend will be jealous?"
Yang Hao: "..."Didn't you also bring it back from me?"
"Lillian don't kid, I have something important to tell you." Yang Hao is colorful.
"It's about Isabella again? I'm not interested in arguing with you, so I'd better do something serious than be cranky. The teacher sent me a message, and there is a trace of the Skinning Sect in the north, I must go there immediately, will you go with me? ”
Lillian said impatiently.
"Well... I have other things to do, so I won't go. ”
Yang Hao thought to himself: Since Lilian doesn't want to believe in herself, there is no need to force it, the Wolf Warrior Mercenary Group has always relied on itself!
"Humph! Hello for yourself! ”
After Lillian finished speaking, several thick vines grew from her feet, wrapped her in and pulled her into the ground and disappeared.
"Gale informs everyone that there is an emergency, and a meeting will be held tonight."
Yang Hao looked at the gloomy sky and sighed, the wind and rain are coming, am I ready?
….
The night wolf mercenary group is stationed
Yang Hao told everyone all the information he had learned, and said, "Do you have any opinions?" ”
"Brother Hao, there is definitely something wrong with those Inns, I feel like they are monsters." Cheng Fat Man was the first to speak.
"That's right, I actually have some personal speculation about the identity of the Indians."
"Brother Hao, we have known each other for so long, I don't know you yet, all the speculations you are about to say, you have already been sure in your heart." The gale urged.
"That's right, Brother Hao, say it quickly, say it quickly! Everyone believes in you! Old Wei said.
"Well, how many people know about the Cthulhu Mythos?"
Yang Hao looked around, and few knew.
I only heard about it, and I didn't have an in-depth understanding.
So he continued, "Earlier, Gale and I met a cultist affiliated with the Skinning Sect in the north of the town, who worshipped an evil god named Cthulhu. ”
"Brother Hao, you mean there is also Cthulhu in the game?" Makoto exclaimed.
"Yes, but I wasn't sure that there would be monsters from the Cthulhu Mythos in the game, until today's trip to Farya. From the information from the villagers, I am 80% sure that the Inns are the deep divers of the Cthulhu mythos.
The deepdiver is characterized by the appearance of a half-human, half-fish, bulging eyes that can never be closed, gills on both cheeks, a slimy body, scales on the back, and a white belly. At the same time, it has a bit of frog characteristics in its body shape, and often jumps forward in a peculiar way.
This is exactly the same as Becky's narrative.
In the real-life Cthulhu Mythos, deep divers live in the sea, especially in the depths of the ocean, as their ethnic names reveal; Although they are aquatic in nature, they can also come ashore and live on the surface for a period of time.
The entire race of deep divers is extremely long-lived, and it is unlikely that they will even die of natural causes unless they are killed by violence or accidents. The entire race collectively worships the Father God Dagon and the Mother God Hundra, as well as Cthulhu, the old ruler of the City of Leah, and is hostile to the Ancients, a mysterious race in Antarctica, who are a great threat to them due to their powerful magic.
Crucially, deep divers have a peculiar habit of mating with humans.
They often lure humans into human sacrifices with their abundant catches and gold, silver, and jewelry, and mate with them.
The hybrid between a deep diver and a human is indistinguishable from a normal human when they are young, but as they pass middle age, they tend to become more and more like a deep diver, and eventually transform into a deep diver completely. ”
"Brother Hao, are you saying that those cute women are used to mate with monsters?" Haiqing's sister felt cold hands and feet, she couldn't imagine how desperate it was, and her voice trembled.
"I'm afraid yes, Jackson's greed and stupidity have led them to find the easiest way."
"Bump!" Gale angrily slapped the case and said, "Brother Hao, let's go kill them all right away, as well as that dog. Mother. Raise. 's Jackson was also killed. ”
"That's right! Right! ”
The crowd immediately responded, stood up one after another, and asked for battle with emotion.
"Let's calm down first, calm down first, and let Brother Hao finish his words!" Lin Tian loudly reassured everyone.
"I can understand everyone's emotions, but we can't fight unprepared, and it's clear now.
Farya is a demon cave, and the villagers have been forced to become accomplices of monsters, and they will not admit the existence of deep divers, so they have been pretending to be deaf and dumb all these years. These villagers are not worth saving, and Jackson deserves death.
The immediate priority now is to ensure the safety of White Rock Town. I saw more than 300 empty graves of the Indos in the cemetery, and counting the original ones, the number of deep divers had reached a terrible level.
The Skinning Sect worships Cthulhu, and the Deep Diver is Cthulhu's subordinate minions, so there must be a connection between them.
I don't know how strong the deep divers are in the game, but it is undeniable that they have been hidden in the shadows all this time, and they are definitely a major threat to White Rock Town. ”
Yang Hao explained the situation he would face in the future in one breath.
"Brother Hao, can we ask Augustus or the army for help." Gale calmed down and analyzed rationally.
Yang Hao thought for a while, shook his head and said:
"There seems to be a problem in the north as well, Augustus is dealing with it, and Lilian has been called away just now. As for the army, don't count on it, the threat of the wolf clan is still above the cult.
The black wolves we usually kill are just miscellaneous soldiers who sneak in from the blockade line, you don't really think that the demonized wolves act alone, do you? ”
"That means we're on our own." Lin Tian woke up.
"Well, starting tomorrow, so the commission will be postponed, and we will go to Red Iron Town to transport a few batches of fine iron back to build new heavy spears and chains, which are about to be scrapped after being used once last time. Gale you know NPCs well, I'll leave this matter to you. ”
"Okay, wrap it up on me." Gale was already familiar with this matter, and said with a full mouth.
"Well, it's not safe in the town, let's send all our relatives to my house, although there is no place to sleep, but the elders drink tea together and chat well."
The members of the Wolf Warrior Mercenary Group are not much different in age from Yang Hao (you can ask the other party to disclose some of the true information when you add friends), so the members of the team have their own parents or other relatives in Baishi Town.
Now that chaos is about to begin, the "heavyweights" of these mercenary groups must be arranged.
"That's a good relationship, my old man has become younger, and he has a lot of spirit, so he should find something to do." Lao Wei thought about the interesting story with his father and said with a smile.
"Brother Hao, that's great. My mom nags me every day that the little sisters who can't see her in the game, and the people who don't talk to me, are almost annoying to me. Liuzi said happily as if grasping at a life-saving straw.
A year after the birth of the sixth son, his father died for some reason, and his mother raised him alone, and he suffered a lot.
"Stinky boy, you won't spend more time with your aunt!" Lin Tian is like Liuzi's brother in the game, and he knows a lot about Liuzi.
"Isn't it like I'm going to follow Brother Hao to make a career, and my mother dislikes me." Liuzi is quite heartless, and he seems to understand many things when he is still underage.
"Stupid boy!" After all, Lin Tian is not the sixth son's own brother, and he can't say much about his family affairs, just a little reminder.
Regardless of this episode, the members of the mercenary group agreed with Yang Hao's proposal, and even suggested whether it could be done for a long time.
Yang Hao didn't agree, if this was the case, wouldn't his home become a teahouse? How can this work!
However, he proposed to use the public funds of the mercenary group to buy a large house and build a decent teahouse.
opened a teahouse in the Western Magic World, Yang Hao is also the first time in the history of games.
Then he explained some trivial things, such as collecting consumables, food, medicine, etc.
At the end of the meeting, everyone dispersed.
Yang Hao didn't fight monsters today, and the mercenary task was not completed, but the daily task of wolf removal did not fall.
"Ding, congratulations on reaching level 7, strength +0.1, agility +0.1, constitution +0.1, spirit +0.1."
Yes, Yang Hao has been upgraded, these days he is either fighting bosses, or he is in a group of monsters, and the acquisition of experience points is like riding a rocket, rising rapidly.
The joy of upgrading slightly dispelled the haze brought by the Peeling Sect, and Yang Hao walked in the direction of his home, and today he was going to carry out the fourth fierce poison refining.
