Chapter 237: The Purple-Faced Overlord
Where does the purple-faced overlord come from?
How to solve things suddenly
According to Xiao Liu's original plan, Suchar attracted the attention of the female corpse in front, and the bearded man and the man in black were responsible for covering on the side, solving those entangled vines while interfering with the female corpse's line of sight, so that Xiao Liu had enough time and space to go around the back of the female corpse from the left side, and drop two incendiary bombs at the feet of the female corpse, thus igniting the so-called bureau eye of the overlord unloading bureau.
Every aspect of this plan seems to be perfect, but when they actually implement it, it is full of loopholes.
The first to go wrong was Suchar.
This old guy is very conceited, he has learned the insect control technique from the ancient Mayan classics, and he doesn't know how much enemy blood he has been contaminated with in this life, even if he goes deep into the ancient tomb palace, he has never dropped the chain at a critical moment.
But this time, Suchar never imagined that his housekeeping skills would be like a three-year-old child's trick in the eyes of others.
No matter how he urged the insect mist, the five-colored insects were just flying around the female corpse, like a bunch of flies, without any aggression at all.
Suchar was furious, and he took out a black thin-spouted glass bottle from his black robe, the blue-purple bottle emitting an eerie black color under the light of the flashlight.
Suchar muttered for a while words that no one understood, and he spoke quickly, as if he were singing, his voice high and low, and his intonation was fast and slow. Immediately after, he jerked the cork off the bottle, and with a shake of his hand, a black-backed purple-headed arthropod crawled out of the bottle.
The insect was large, the size of an adult's palm, with a small head and a large tail, two pairs of dark red wings on its back, lilac patterns spiraling on both sides of the wings, and four pairs of long legs under the flat body.
After the thing crawled out of the bottle, it first shook its body, shook its wings, and kept shaking its head from side to side, as if it was looking for a target.
Suchar was still babbling, and the black-purple bug seemed to hear Suchar's voice, and it tilted its head to look back at Suchar, and after a while it turned its head to look at the female corpse.
At the same time that the insect was looking at the female corpse with a pair of bean eyes, the female corpse was also looking at it.
When the female corpse saw the insect, although her face was still expressionless, her turquoise eyes couldn't help but glow.
A light of astonishment, a light of greed.
"Purple-faced overlord!" The voice of the female corpse floated from the grudge, and the voice was eerie and terrifying.
"I didn't expect you, a guy who has become a tree spirit, to recognize it!" Suchar didn't finish his sentence, and the whole person couldn't help coughing, coughing until a large mouthful of black-red blood spit on the ground.
Suchar slowed down for a long time before he understood this breath, and he gasped and said, "Today I will let you taste the taste of the purple-faced overlord." ”
The purple-faced overlord is actually a kind of corpse turtle, a type of hammer beetle.
Corpse insects are very common, but this purple-faced overlord is a rare object in a hundred years.
According to legend, from ancient times to the present, only a few people have successfully cultivated this purple-faced overlord.
According to the oral tradition of the older generation of gold touchers, there was once a person named Luo Ziyun in the mountains of Yunnan, who was not only a craftsman who touched gold and fought backwards, but also a Gu master.
When he touched the gold again, he was accidentally bitten by the dumpling of the corpse, and the corpse poison almost killed him, but at the critical moment, he was rescued by a Miao doctor named Granny Xiong, and applied the wound with corpse turtle powder mixed with herbs, and Luo Ziyun picked up a life seven days later.
Due to his inconvenience, Luo Ziyun lived in the local Miao Village for three years, and because of his identity as a Gu master, he learned a lot of methods from Granny Xiong about the medicine of corpses and turtles in these three years.
Once, he went to catch the corpse turtle and put it into medicine as usual according to Granny Xiong's instructions, but when he opened the clay pot containing the corpse turtle, he found that there were originally four corpse turtles inside, and at this time there was only one left.
And the remaining corpse turtle turned out to be two circles bigger than the ordinary corpse turtle for some reason.
Not only that, but the head of the corpse turtle changed from gray to a dark red, and the wings on its back also appeared in a dark red spiral pattern.
It was agitated, scurrying around in the clay pot, like a cricket ready to go to war.
Luo Ziyun was very surprised at the beginning when he saw this, but then he suddenly thought that it could be that corpse turtle that ate all his companions?
With this idea, Luo Ziyun went into the old grave in the nearby mountains that night, and found 87 turtles of different sizes inside.
After coming back, Luo Ziyun threw the 87 large and small corpse turtles into the clay pot, and buried the clay pot under the old locust tree in the backyard of Granny Xiong's house.
In the next few days, everything was as usual, Luo Ziyun still decocted medicine, lit the fire, and cooked, he didn't mention the seemingly mutated corpse turtle to Granny Xiong, and Granny Xiong didn't ask why the clay pot suddenly disappeared.
It was as if the two of them had suddenly forgotten the clay pot.
It wasn't until the night of the seventh day that the cloudless sky suddenly turned into a violent wind, and the downpour swept the whole land almost instantly, and countless thunderbolts swept through the sky, turning the whole sky as if it were day.
The wind and rain continued all night until the next morning.
And it was at this time that people found out that Granny Xiong's house had been scorched by last night's thunder.
The older generation of people in the village, accompanied by a few bold young people, entered Grandma Xiong's house, but those people searched inside and outside the house several times but did not find Granny Xiong and Luo Ziyun.
In the end, a young offspring found them under the old locust tree behind Granny Bear's house.
The old locust tree behind the house had been split in half by last night's thunder at this time, and Granny Xiong and Luo Ziyun were lying under the broken tree.
At this time, the two of them were charred and carbonized, and they were lying on the ground face down in a figure-eight shape, their hands and feet bent like insects, and they looked terrifying.
And the most terrifying thing is that just when the villagers wanted to move the two of them and wanted to bury the two, Luo Ziyun, who was suddenly charred as carbon, suddenly moved, and he twisted his body in an extremely strange posture, and then a crack opened in his chest, and a corpse turtle the size of an adult's palm, with a purple face and black back, came out of it little by little.
Seeing that the dead man had been resurrected again, the villagers present were all panicked, and everyone shouted and scattered in all directions, and fled the scene one after another.
However, this was only the beginning of a nightmare for them, and in less than a week, all 720 people in the village died in one night.
The expressions and postures of each of them after death were the same as those of Granny Xiong and Luo Ziyun, lying on the ground face down in a figure-eight shape, with their hands and feet bent like insect claws.
No one knows why all the inhabitants of this Miao village died overnight, and no one knows how they died, only that they all saw a purple-faced and black-backed turtle before they died.
Later, people gave this corpse turtle a name, called "Purple-faced Overlord".
It was also since then that few people have ever seen this purple-faced overlord again, let alone control this purple-faced overlord to defend against the enemy.
At this time, Suchar released the purple-faced overlord that he regarded as a treasure, obviously planning to break the net with this female corpse.
But what Suchar never expected was that the purple-faced overlord stopped at the mouth of the blue bottle, and after looking around twice with a bean eye, he turned around and slumped back into the bottle.
The angry old guy almost smashed the bottle in his hand.
Suchar stomped her feet angrily, but the female corpse over there didn't intend to watch the excitement all the time, and several vines waved in the air, and rolled straight towards Suchar's neck.
Suchar was shocked, he hurriedly shrank his head, and then shook his body, and the whole person moved to the side with a very strange body method, but his thigh was scratched by himself before, and his speed of action was obviously limited.
Suchar felt a hot pain spread from the back of his thigh to his back, and then, Suchar fell out in a standard dog nibbling position, almost falling to the seventh floor below.
Suchar and his purple-faced overlord fell off the chain at a critical moment, and the bearded man and the man in black didn't bargain at all.
When the two of them saw that Suchar was moving, they rushed over from the side with an arrow, but who knew that the vines next to the woman's corpse seemed to have eyes, and they curled their bodies like poisonous snakes and attacked them.
Seeing dozens of damn vines attacking him, the bearded man and the man in black pulled the trigger almost at the same time, and two fiery snakes suddenly erupted, and the 7.62mm bullets mercilessly hit those vines, splashing countless dark green liquids.
But just when the bearded man thought he had succeeded, he suddenly felt a cold wind hit his back.
Years of combat experience made his heart tighten, and the beard subconsciously jumped out to the side, and at this moment, the position where the beard was standing suddenly let out a "boom", where the incomparably hard white marble brick was smashed by something.
The bearded man was startled, but when he raised his head and looked over there, he was stunned.
Because at this time, he saw four white giant beasts, this giant beast looked like a man but not a man, like an ape but not an ape, more than two meters tall, huge in size, a bloody mouth couldn't help but let out a roar, and a white giant beast rushed towards the man in black.
