"This ......" Qin Hao turned around to look at the Palace Master of the Scorpio Palace, hesitated for a moment and asked, "This terracotta figurine is the ecliptic?" ”

At this time? The palace master of the Scorpio Palace was still transformed from a "small fish" into his body, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly: "Isn't he who he is?" ...... You don't think that the old man of the zodiac can transform into a human form like us, do you? ”

"......," Xia Duoduo looked at the already torn villain, his eyes blinked, and he gave up the idea of taking it for himself. However, he still took out a pile of bottles and cans from his backpack, took out a drop of water from the pool, scraped shallow debris from the rockery, and dug up a root on the small tree.

"You ......" The palace master of the Scorpion Palace was speechless for a while after seeing Xia Duoduo's actions, but then remembered that they were all peerless treasures, and the key was that these were lifeless, equivalent to corpses.

Corpse? He was taken aback at the idea. If the old man of the zodiac was still there, he would never have said such a rebellious thing. As for now, he watched Xia Duoduo's unbridled plunder, as if he had eaten a dozen lemons.

"I'm going to take it back and study the composition of these ingredients and life forms, so that I can make the best use of them." Xia Duoduo glanced at the Scorpio Palace Master: "If you like it, I'll give you one." ”

What to send? This is the property of our zodiac in the first place! There, it's your turn. The Scorpio Palace Lord's eyelids went up, and although he didn't dare to say it blatantly, he explained everything with a contemptuous look.

"In that case, why does the battle of the zodiac continue?" Qin Hao saw that the expressions of the two were a little funny: Although this is the inheritance of the zodiac, but a lot of research is for the entire human race, so he will turn a blind eye.

"Maybe according to the rules that were originally set." The Scorpio Palace Lord thought for a while: "The zodiac is the zodiac that leads our zodiac to operate according to the laws of time and space, and once the laws are formulated, even the zodiac as a manager is powerless. ”

Qin Hao was stunned.

"In this way, a normal challenge is a game, a pit to eliminate dissidents." He thought for a moment and said, "Since there is a challenge from the Aries Palace, and it is you who are instigated by him, then he must know the situation here. ”

"You mean...... Is he the one who comes into contact with the Dark Clan in the Zodiac? "The Scorpio House is not stupid, and it quickly deduces who is behind the entire Zodiac Challenge.

"It's not necessarily," Xia Duoduo finally packed up all the materials, and then came together: "The black hand will not be so simple, as long as the Aries Palace is not a fool." Perhaps the Aries Palace is also a pawn, used as a gun by the real black hand. ”

"There is a high probability of this, and there is another scenario: the Aries Palace is being coerced into joining. It is precisely because of this that the Aries Palace did not rush to war with us directly. Maybe it's not just to hide it, but to save the power and save the life. Qin Hao thought about it for a while and said something different.

"Shhh...... Survival? Right! A thought suddenly came to his mind in the Scorpio Palace, and he eagerly activated the internal contact mechanism of the Zodiac Palace, only to find that the Aries Palace did not react at all.

On the contrary, the other nine palaces received information one after another, and then came back with a news that made him look like ashes: in addition to the Aries Palace, the Capricorn Palace had also lost contact.

"Let's go! Something is wrong with the Aries Palace! He didn't have time to think about it, and he rushed towards the location of the Aries Palace.

At this moment, the Aries Palace was full of people, and there were other palace masters and some vassal groups watching. Qin Hao unexpectedly found Pisces Palace, Tiemu, and Katie in the crowd.

Tie Mu glanced at the two of them, and said with a serious expression: "The Aries Palace has been sacrificed, and there is a demon teleportation circle under him. ”

“

The House of Aries was sacrificed? By whom? Capricorn Palace? Qin Hao raised his eyebrows upwards and said in a low voice.

Tie Mu let out another "um", and he whispered to Qin Hao: "Libra Palace has announced that the challenge against Pisces Palace will be invalid because of the death of the initiator, and the challenge will be invalid according to the laws of the zodiac!" ”

"Are you sure you haven't taken half a step out of Pisces, they haven't left your sight?" Xia Duoduo held his chin on one side and said slowly.

"No," Temu finally exhaled with the breath he held in his chest, "Not only us, but also Mila of the Lion Palace and Ambonina, the ambassador plenipotentiary of Sagittarius, are there, and they don't have the time to commit the crime. ”

"Since that's the case, then there is a problem with the other palaces...... Xia Duoduo suddenly paused, turned his head and looked at Qin Hao: "Can you feel the demonic aura here?" ”

"Hmm," Qin Hao pointed to the demon array in the distance: "The Aries Palace was sacrificed to provide the energy that gave the demon array the energy to work. However, this demon circle requires three or five paths to activate. ”

"You mean there are at least two demons here? But I can't sense their ......," Temu, who was proficient in the Holy Light Combat Technique, muttered with a panicked look on his face, "Is the Holy Light Crusade's greatest reliance against demons about to be lost?" ”

"Maybe they chose ..... Purify," Katie looked up preoccupiedly, "I can feel the breath of life here...... A completely different type of life energy from what is currently known. ”

"Life?!" Qin Hao seemed to have been splashed with a basin of ice water on his head, and when his mind had not yet eased up, his body subconsciously shivered; The strange energy he could feel just now turned out to be like this.

The demons, who represent death and destruction, have learned the life energy that symbolizes hope and new life! These two completely contradictory energies have converged and escaped the detection of the Light!

What are the consequences of this?

Is it as pervasive as a virus? The existing defense system that relies on holy light and life energy to suppress and defend against demons and demons has all collapsed!

Always cautious, trembling humanity will fall into despair again. The shattered Interstellar Alliance is full of loopholes because of this.

Hopefully, it will cost a lot of money for the devilmen to conduct this kind of research, and the success rate will not be too high, and the energy consumed is very large. Otherwise, humans will be slaughtered like fish.

The scene was unusually depressing. Only the Scorpio Palace and the Pisces Palace, who don't understand the power of it, looked at the four of them with a worried look.

"Maybe there's a turnaround, after all, humans still have the Stone of Aftersound." Xia Duoduo couldn't stand this atmosphere and took the lead to speak: "Maybe the Stone of Aftersound is the foundation for dealing with demons one day in the future." ”

"No, the Stone of Aftersound was originally a hypothesis, and it was ......issued by the Eundi Federation," Katie glanced at Tetsuki, and said coldly.

"You mean that even the Federation can't prove that this Aftersound Stone is useful?" Xia Duoduo had a look of great disappointment and even some despair on his face: "They said that only when I find you can I recover my cold ice and clan?" ”

"Can't...... At least not now, maybe everything is possible with the Origin Guardian, but after I came here, I vaguely sensed in my heart that the Origin Guardian was no longer there......" Katie's face was lonely, disappointed, hesitant, bitter, and even a hint of relief.

"It's gone...... Xia Duoduo shook his head bitterly as he remembered the tree he had seen in the Zodiac Secret Room. Trembling all over, a trace of inexplicable panic surged in his heart, and he put his cold hand into Qin Hao's wide palm.

Tiemu seemed to have sensed something, and when he looked at Qin Hao, he found that Qin Hao shook his head quietly, so he guessed

When it came to the result, he stepped forward and hugged Katie tightly.

It's just that in Katie's eyes, Xia Duoduo's words seemed to follow her own words, and she continued: "If the Dili people lose their original protection, their long life will end. Now that life expectancy has plummeted, the longevity advantage over humans may end in this generation. ”

"What would happen if the lifespan was the same as that of humans on Earth?" Xia Duoduo asked thoughtfully.

"I don't know...... However, the Dieley's body is worse than that of the earthlings and Martians, perhaps this shortcoming will be infinitely magnified, and at the same time, their talent for controlling battleships will be greatly reduced, and they may be inferior to the young talents of the earth and Mars. ”

"Let's go over and see what we can find." Tie Mu looked at Qin Hao, turned around and walked into the Aries Palace.

Where is the eye? Capricorn in and out of the picture, this is the only picture saved by the Aries automatic recording device. Perhaps it is because of this that people begin to doubt Capricorn.

And in the very center of the Aries Palace, there was a circular demonic circle with a diameter of three feet. The black-green cast marks were broken at three, seven, and eleven o'clock, which seemed to confirm that the three of them were casting spells together.

And on top of it was the corpse of Aries Palace dressed in a white robe and with horns on his head, and a finger-thick crystal knife stuck in his heart. Other than that, the blood under his body has dried up.

Xia Duoduo carefully put the demonic magic circle casting materials the size of a fingernail into a brown crystal bottle. He took out a white marble spoon and gently placed the blood stained with the casting material into another square crystal bottle. He picked up another handkerchief and gently pulled out the ritual dagger, scraping the bloodshot from the tip of the knife into the glass bottle.

The palace master of Libra Palace, who was standing on one side, looked at him with a puzzled expression but did not speak.

Xia Duoduo glanced left and right and beckoned to the fort: "Analyze these three materials and pay attention to protection." ”

The turret took it and walked towards the corner of the side, and under the gaze of everyone, he took out a bunch of instruments from his backpack, and even moved out a laboratory table with its own sink.

With the "humming" sound of the machine, the ingredients in the crystal bottle began to gradually become clear.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xia Duoduo looked up at the palace master of Libra Palace wearing a high crown: "Please ask Your Excellency, who discovered the change here?" ”

"Who are you? I have not seen Your Excellency from the Zodiac. The palace master of the Libra Palace arched his hand towards Xia Duoduo, and then glanced at the orderly fort in the distance.

"We are Pisces Guest Secretaries, investigators from the Union of Youndi." Seeing this, Xia Duoduo no longer concealed it, and told everyone the purpose of coming here.

"Oh? Are you the guardians of Erth? The palace master of Libra Palace was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "In this way, we do have some origins, and the origin guardian of this little doll is to be taken care of by us." He glanced at Katie.

With this relationship, the lord of Libra Palace, who is the ruling of the Zodiac, seems to believe that Xia Duoduo is a person who can remain fair. agreed to Xia Duoduo's next investigation, and turned around and called a handsome girl: "This is the person who found the white sheep, and the guests can ask it." ”

Xia Duoduo raised his head to look at this woman, but there was an inexplicable sense of intimacy in his heart, as if he had seen it somewhere, and his voice couldn't help but soften: "Who are you?" Have we met? ”

The woman's expression was a little flustered, and after glancing at Xia Duoduo, she was stunned for a moment before replying: "Back to my lord, the villain's surname is shallow, and the sparse is shallow." Although I have a sense of déjà vu with adults, I don't know adults. ”
