Chapter 39
There is a reason for the arrogance of the Langmu people. The Letterstone provided them with infinite power, and they conquered everything they went through.
Just a thousand years after the creation of the dimensional passage, disaster has crept - it is out of the forgotten dimensional passage that an otherworldly monster called Ancient Rock has emerged.
The ancient rocks are a peculiar creature. Their bodies are not large, about the size of a man's fist. Similar in shape to a modern octopus, it has seven tentacles and a spiny leg.
The Guroks are physically weak and can be easily killed, but they are naturally capable of anti-gravity flight and are adept at stealth. All these abilities are to facilitate its parasitism.
The scary thing about Gurok is that there are two things. One is that it can parasitize and manipulate any living thing, and the other is that it seems that all Gu Rok has a unified mind, and in the event of a large-scale war, countless individuals are like a whole, with strong coordination and rapid reaction ability.
According to the records of the Langmu people, these ancient rock creatures are completely incommunicative, and their purpose seems to be to devour. After Gu Rok broke through the dimensional passage, he quickly established a base building known as the Blood Nest. They then attacked all kinds of creatures around them, large and small, and controlled them into their blood nests, where they were devoured.
As the number of creatures devoured by the Bloodnest increases, it grows in size and creates new Guroklai.
Ancient Rok is constantly controlling creatures, and the blood nest is constantly devouring and growing. By the time the Langmu discovered the existence of the Blood Nest, it had grown into a massive organism with a diameter of one kilometer. Then came the beginning of the war.
The Langmu people tried to make contact and communicate with Gurok, but until the end of the war between the two sides, they were unsuccessful. There was only endless hatred and hostility between the two for hundreds of years. The people of Langmu had no idea where the ancient roc came from or what his ultimate purpose was. Its devouring instinct and intentions can only be deduced through the analysis of its behavior patterns.
In the war between the two sides, the Langmu people had an absolute advantage. Using the magical power of the Letterstone, the Blood Hive has been completely destroyed many times, but a new Ancient Rock will travel through the dimensional passage and quickly rebuild. By the mid-term, Gurok had learned to manipulate the Langmu to counter the Langmu, resulting in heavy casualties.
Although the Langmu people are tough, their population size is not large. A large number of casualties caused the gradual decline of the Langmu civilization. In the later stages of the war, the Langmu people made a desperate bet, first destroying the dimensional passage at any cost, and then taking advantage of the fact that Gu Rok is not resistant to temperature shocks, through the ability of the super letter stone, to link the global letter stone, and concentrate energy to raise and drop the global temperature in a short period of time. The temperature difference of about 70 degrees made all of the ancient rocks disappear from the face of the earth completely. And the price of all this is that 95% of the letter stones lose their energy and become fly ash.
The Langmu people detected the signal sent by the ancient rocks to outer space before their defeat - their coordinate calibration of the earth, which guided the ancient rocks to kill the earth directly from outer space. The Langmu people did not know when the ancient rocks arrived on Earth, and in order to preserve their strength in advance, they could only set up field forces on the only remaining letter stones and sealed them. Once the Ancient Rock descends on Earth again, these Letters will be activated.
The information recorded by the Langmu people in the letter stone came to an abrupt end.
Hua Banxue finished talking about these contents in one breath, and everyone fell silent.
After a while, Wang Zhifei asked with difficulty: "Senior sister, so, the Gu Luoke recorded by the Langmu people is really here?" ”
Hua Banxue said: "I'm afraid that's it." ”
Qi Yuancheng thought of a possibility, and he asked, "Could it be that the meteorite we saw a few days ago was Gu Rok descending on Earth?" ”
Hua Banxue nodded and said, "Very likely." It was by no means a common meteor, and all the visions happened after that. ”
Wang Zhifei said: "If this is the case, wouldn't it be a great disaster? He said with some trepidation: "Even such a powerful existence as the ancient Langmu people have to spend so much money to fight against the ancient Rok, and today's human beings do not have such powerful strength and magical power, how can we resist?" Is it just you who have the power of the field? ”
Hua Banxue's face was also full of worry, and said, "This is also what I'm worried about." The discovery of the letter stone here is definitely an ultra-small probability event, I don't know where the other letter stones sealed by the Langmu people will be? Even if the letter stone is unblocked, will there be anyone like us nearby who can be activated? If only some beasts were activated, wouldn't it be even worse for humans? ”
Qi Yuancheng saw that the two were a little pessimistic, and he comforted: "Senior sister, Zhifei, I think your worries are right. But these worries don't solve anything. I think that now that we have so much information, we will not be unprepared for the battle. Seeing that the two did not refute, he continued: "For the sake of today's plan, we must hurry out of the mountain and inform the government and society of this information, so that everyone can prepare in advance, so as not to be caught off guard." Although our strength is weak, it is the most basic and small amount of what we can do. ”
Wang Zhifei said: "Well, Yuancheng is right. But if we say it, will anyone believe this information? We don't have any letter stones to use anymore and we can't provide physical proof of this. Besides, your abilities don't explain the problem. He pointed at Hua Banxue and said, "Senior sister's ability is an information base and induction, and it can't be displayed; The ability of the small stone is to copy, but there is no other source field force to copy it for him; As for Yuancheng, you have unleashed your Gu poison ability, and you have not been arrested as a biological weapon? ”
The two were speechless by Wang Zhifei. Half a day, Hua Banxue said: "Maybe you can talk to someone close to us first, such as my dad." ”
Qi Yuancheng said: "That's right, Senior Sister's father, Professor Hua, is an expert in paleontology, maybe he can understand what we are saying." ”
Wang Zhifei suddenly patted his head and said, "By the way, do you still remember the stone we saw when we entered the mountain?" I've always felt that the texture of the letter stone is a little familiar, but now that I think about it, it's the same as the stele! ”
The two of them were reminded by him like this, and they also felt that the stele was also a letter stone. Wang Zhifei and Qi Yuancheng were so excited that they didn't care that it was getting late, so they wanted to go to the mountain pass to find out. Hua Banxue calmed down, and she advised: "Recently, the village has been in crisis, although we have defeated two monsters, I don't know if there will be other dangers. Besides, the mountain road is dangerous, and the night road is dark, so it is better to call the village chief and Xiaoshi to go with him tomorrow morning. ”
The two of them calmed down when they heard Hua Banxue's words. Wang Zhifei said: "It's still the senior sister who thinks thoughtfully, we are too anxious." ”
Qi Yuancheng also said: "Yes, we really need to be more vigilant." In this way, Zhifei and I will take turns to be on duty at night, just in case. ”
Hua Banxue nodded, took out the fish intestine ancient sword and handed it to Qi Yuancheng, and said, "I always feel that this sword is not simple, but I haven't retrieved the information related to it from the information database, maybe it's just an illusion." But this sword is extremely sharp, and it has done many miraculous feats, so you should use it first. ”
