Chapter 256: The Sand Clan

"What, it's not human," Lu Kui looked dazed. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"It has become a deep--eschatological race." Liu Mu looked at Lu Kui and said.

"Not a professional?" Lukui said.

"It's not." Liu Mu said, "Of course, from the biological definition, even if you are a professional, you should not be considered a human being. ”

"Just get better." Luquay didn't seem to care much about it.

"Huh."

Liu Mu chuckled lightly and turned to go down the city wall.

"Lord of the city, can I stay in the city?" Lu Kui asked after a few steps.

"Someone will arrange for you." Liu Mu glanced at Tong Tianze and whispered a few words.

Tong Tianze nodded.

"I'm not human anymore, so what the hell am I?" Lu Kui looked at the back of Liu Mu leaving, and couldn't help but look at the person next to him and asked.

Tong Tianze and the others naturally didn't know what Liu Mu meant, and they were even more dazed than Lu Kui.

Liu Mu, who returned to the City Lord's Mansion, sat on the chair in the study, with a thoughtful look on his face: "The Sand Clan, it seems to be a little interesting." ”

So far, Liu Mu has encountered all kinds of monsters in the abyss, as well as the monsters on the earth that were originally and after the apocalypse.

Da Man can barely be regarded as a race with some intelligence.

And the Sand Clan in Liu Mu's mouth is the real intelligent race in the abyss.

This race is special, and they are not maintaining the reproduction of the race through more normal means.

Rather, they use the means of "infection" to turn other creatures into their own kind.

Therefore, the Sand Clan does not have a relatively uniform appearance, but has a variety of appearances.

The only thing this race has in common is that they are made up of "sand".

Like Luquay, his blood has completely desertified, but he does not realize it at all, and after a while, his body will be completely "sandified", and he will only maintain the appearance of a human being—still a part.

Liu Mu just saw that there were already fine and dense cracks on Lu Kui's face, and only then did he realize that he might be the Sand Family.

Once Luqui is completely desertified, he is really no longer human, but a sand family.

It's not just a change in the inner form, it's more about "thinking", no matter what race it is, once it is successfully infected and becomes a sand family, it will immediately betray and abandon the original race.

They will try their best to turn the creatures around them into sand clans in various ways.

Of course, this "creature" will not include plants, and generally speaking, the Sand Clan will only choose intelligent creatures to infect, and those monsters are more difficult to infect.

"It's not so much a race as a particular 'virus'."

Liu Mu carefully "reviewed" some information about the Sand Dependents in the bloodline memory, and said secretly in his heart.

"So, did Lu Kui meet a certain Sand Clan and get infected? Then this part of the memory was hidden. Liu Mu analyzed in his heart, "It's not a simple matter to find the Sand Clan. ”

After being infected, people will show some abnormalities to some extent.

And then when it completely becomes a sand family, at least some parts of its body will appear in the state of "sand grains", which is very weird.

But this state of affairs will not last long, and after a while, it will return to normal.

At this time, judging from the appearance alone, it is difficult to judge whether this "creature" is the Sand Clan or not.

"Tell the king to come to me."

Liu Mu walked out of the study and said to Lin Caihan outside the door.

Lin Caihan nodded.

After about ten minutes, Wang Li came.

"No need." Directly interrupting Wang Li's salute, Liu Mu said, "I want you to investigate a matter." ”

Wang Li nodded, the responsibilities of the ember hunters have changed now, from the original hunting monsters to the current "hunting dangerous elements".

Compared to the ember sword and shield in the open, the ember hunter is now like a poisonous snake that retreats into the darkness step by step.

Everyone still knew about the existence of the Ember Hunters, but all they knew was what Liu Mu wanted them to know.

"Go and look for people who don't bleed when they're wounded, I suspect that there are monsters that aren't human and have infiltrated the city, and what comes out of them is sand when they're injured." Liu Mu said, "Hide the purpose of the investigation, but you can let people know, do you know what I mean?" ”

Wang Li was stunned for two seconds, shook his head very honestly, and wanted to hide it and let people know what he was going to do.

He won't pretend to understand in front of Liu Mu, if he messes things up, it will be a luxury to even die at that time.

In terms of loyalty, of course, Wang Li can't catch up with Luo Cheng.

But even if it is death, it is impossible for Wang Li to betray Liu Mu, from this point of view, Wang Li is the most reassuring person.

"Create an atmosphere of terror." Liu Mu said, "I need the residents of the city to be afraid, and you can grasp the degree of it." ”

"Yes, sir." Wang Li nodded solemnly.

"If the Sand Clan does get into the city, that's a bit bad." Liu Mu said secretly in his heart.

He didn't want to wake up surrounded by a bunch of strange sandmen - even if they maintained their human appearance.

Let Wang Li investigate, in Liu Mu's opinion, it may not have much effect.

After all, even he couldn't tell the Sand Clan - in fact, there were very few ways to distinguish the Sand Clan.

Wang Li and they secretly investigated, and even if there were really Sand Clans in the city, it would be difficult to find out.

Therefore, Liu Mucai specially instructed Wang Li to create an atmosphere of fear.

This is not to startle the snake, but more to let Liu Mu create more shadows.

Liu Mu wanted a shadow lurking around everyone in the city, even the residents outside.

With the wisdom of the Shadow, of course, it is impossible to discover the existence of the Sand Clan from the clues, which is very difficult to do.

However, once the Sand Clan takes action and wants to infect others, with the wisdom of these creatures, they can naturally react.

That's when things will be simple.

To achieve this, negative breaths such as fear and fear are obviously essential.

The number of Shadows is actually far less than that of the Wild Hunt, and naturally there are only a few people in Ember City.

The City of Embers can now be described as living and working in peace and contentment, everyone may not eat well, but they sleep absolutely soundly, resulting in Liu Mu not having too many "raw materials" to create a ghost.

Now, in order to create a ghost, I can't say that I have to give everyone some nightmares.

In addition to Wang Li, the shadow can also elicit fear in people's hearts to a certain extent.

It is foreseeable that in the next period of time, the residents of Ember City may not have too many smiles on their faces.
