Chapter 409: Eat the Hero
"Ancient Hero Atlas?!" Anubis's voice sounded in Lin Chao's mind in shock.
Lin Chao was slightly stunned, Anubis usually sleeps in his right arm, and rarely shows up, he didn't expect this name to cause it to react, and this name seems to be a little familiar, as if he had heard it before, but he couldn't remember it for a while, Lin Chao immediately asked in his heart: "Do you know this person?" ”
"People?" Anubiston roared, "This is a true hero, and a great hero!" Do you know the origin of the name Atlantis? ”
"What do you mean?" Lin Chao frowned slightly.
"Atlantis is the strongest civilization in the fourth solar era, created by the descendants of an ancient civilization in the third solar era, that person's name is Poseidon, the ability is the water system, and among the ten children he gave birth to, Atlas is the eldest son, so the name of Atlas is used to name this race, and Atlantis translates to mean the island of Atlas."
Anubis said with admiration: "I have heard the legend of him before, this is a great ancient hero, almost close to the tyrannical ruler of the Sumerian kingdom born in the lower Tigris in later generations, in terms of combat effectiveness!" They are all terrifying beings who can easily kill the Devourer, but unlike Gilgamesh, who was exiled as a sinner, Atlas is a hero! ”
Lin Chao suddenly recalled this epic hero, no wonder he felt familiar, this is one of the great ancient heroes who have appeared in later history, his heart was full of shock, he didn't expect this super existence to be hidden in this ancient relic, this is definitely an unexpected surprise!
If this ancient hero can be brought back to Earth now, it will definitely be a major change in the pattern of history. It is estimated that only that mysterious giant-eyed creature on the land of the earth can fight against him, except for that thing, including the Queen of the Abyss, it may not be her opponent!
Of course, this is just Lin Chao's speculation, the true ultimate power of the Abyss Queen. Lin Chao didn't see it with his own eyes.
Lin Chao hurriedly asked the white-haired old man, "Where is the ancient hero Lord Atlas, can you take me to meet him?" ”
The white-haired old man didn't expect Lin Chao to know Atlas too, but he immediately figured it out, and said with a sigh: "I didn't expect Lord Atlas's reputation to be circulating in the later era, haha......" He laughed twice, suddenly thought of something, and suddenly sighed and said: "It's a pity, Lord Atlas won't leave here." Otherwise, return to your hometown with us, and with the land resources of your hometown, you may have hope to be reborn. ”
"Reborn?" Lin Chao was stunned and said, "Is he dead?" ”
The white-haired old man shook his head slightly, and said, "Of course not, how could Lord Atlas die, it's just that his body was eaten by that group of beasts more than a thousand years ago." Fortunately, consciousness is stored in the form of data into the brain chip. Relying on Lord Atlas's ability, as long as there are enough resources and environment, he can definitely reshape his body! ”
Lin Chao was taken aback and said, "That group of beasts? Here's something to eat Atlas?! ”
"You're mistaken, it's not the monster remnants you thought." The white-haired old man had an ugly face and clenched his fists. Gritted his teeth and said: "This matter is really hard to talk about, countless years ago, Lord Atlas led our ancestors to contain some monsters here. Later, the monster was destroyed, but the spatial passage was closed, even if Lord Atlas was as powerful as a god, but without the spatial mark of the earth, he would not be able to lead us out of here, unless one of our future generations could awaken the [Spatial Ability]! ”
"It's a pity that there were not many remnants of our ancestors, and the main part of our Atlantic genes is light, and there are very few paraphylaxis abilities that have been awakened, not to mention that there are countless collateral abilities, and the probability of awakening [space] is extremely low!"
"However, after a long period of time, generation after generation, finally one person has awakened the spatial ability!" Speaking of this, the white-haired old man's eyes almost erupted with flames, full of resentment.
It was the first time that Lin Chao had seen such an angry expression on the face of this old man who had always been kind since he saw him, and immediately continued to listen to him.
"This would have been a cause for joy, but not long after the birth of that beast, the corona created by the ancestors malfunctioned, and the periodic cycle broke down, and instead of alternating day and night, it hung high in the sky forever." The white-haired old man looked a little in deep pain.
Lin Chao realized that the corona he was talking about should be the artificial sun outside.
"After the corona problems, we were forced to migrate from the surface to the underground, and we also faced the most difficult problems of survival!" The white-haired old man said in a low voice: "Originally, this is a closed space, according to the law of conservation of energy, we are not worried about the problem of survival, and there are monster remnants to fight, plus the restraint and reproduction within the clan, so it has been very stable, but after the corona failure, the resources on the land were evaporated and burned dry, and the green soil became a desert, and a lot of available energy was torn apart into unusable energy by the sun's rays." ”
"Underground, the planting conditions are difficult, the monsters outside have also died in large numbers, the corpses have been burned by the sun and turned into ashes, we have begun to lack water, lack of food, our human body evolution rate, far inferior to these monsters, they have evolved to adapt to the sun's exposure after hundreds of years, but we can't."
"So the people of the tribe starved to death in large numbers."
"In the first hundred years, it has been sharply reduced from seventy or eighty thousand to several thousand, and at this time, the beast who has awakened the spatial ability, because he has been learning the use of spatial ability with Lord Atlas for a long time and understands the personality of Lord Atlas, so he used various methods to ask Lord Atlas for food."
"Lord Atlas left an incurable wound in the early battle, and coupled with the lack of resources here, his injuries have not healed, but he can't stand the beast's pleading, so he still hunts some monster relics back and rewards them."
"Later, the number of monster remnants was hunted down very quickly, and the number left was very small, and in the harsh environment, it evolved to be extremely survivable, even Lord Atlas had to search everywhere and spend a lot of effort to hunt one or two."
"Until one day, when Lord Atlas hunted again, he encountered a monster, this is a monster that has existed for an unknown amount of time, extremely strong, and injured the already extremely weak Lord Atlas again, and occupied the Desert of Death, as long as Lord Atlas sets foot on the desert, it will smell Lord Atlas's breath."
"Later, without Lord Atlas to hunt for food, the surviving clansmen soon could not hold on, and died in large numbers again, the number dropped from a few thousand to a few hundred, and the beast was also facing the threat of starvation, he finally couldn't help it, and begged Lord Atlas again."
"Lord Atlas treated him like half a child, watched him prostrate in front of him, pleaded and pleaded, and finally made a decision, which was to cut off his own flesh and feed this beast!"
Tears flowed from the eyes of the white-haired old man, and he said in a sad tone: "Lord Atlas's flesh and blood is composed of divine cells, and each piece of flesh and blood contains huge energy, which can maintain the needs of the body for a long time. ”
Lin Chao was stunned, he didn't expect there to be this story in the middle, but he didn't feel surprised, he deeply experienced the life of the afterlife, and knew to what extent the dark side of human nature would expand under the pressure of survival, but this Atlas was a little too stupid.
"Is that man still alive?" Lin Chao asked.
The grief on the white-haired old man's face immediately turned into strong resentment, and said: "After he ate Lord Atlas's body, he evolved into an extremely powerful person, and he can live in a dormant way for thousands of years, or even longer, at the beginning, there were many people who did not agree with Lord Atlas's approach, but there were also some beasts who were greedy for life and afraid of death, and chose to follow that person, and now after generations, it is said that those who follow him have almost died, leaving only his two wives, but these two vicious women also sleep with him, It's just a different way of sleeping, barely living. ”
Lin Chao was a little disappointed, counting these three people, they still had one person left to complete the task, it seemed that this battle was inevitable.
"Can you take me with you to meet the Atlas-sama?" Lin Chao asked.
The white-haired old man put away the grief in his heart, took a deep breath, and said to Lin Chao: "Yes, the three of you, please come with me." With that, he turned and walked towards the widest grotto carved in the rear.
Lin Chao translated to the second daughter and followed, although he didn't want the second daughter to go with him to see the Atlas, but the content of this matter was too long to hide the past.
After coming to the grotto, the white-haired old man motioned to several guards around him to retreat, and he took Lin Chao and the others into the depths of the grotto, and after walking inside the dark passage for a few minutes, a bright light passage appeared in front of him.
After walking to the mouth of the bright passage, I saw that it was an empty cavern, and in it was placed a silver-white mechanical spaceship similar to a flying saucer, with metal brackets at the bottom to support the ground, and a little dust on the hatch and portholes.
"Lord Atlas." When the white-haired old man saw the mechanical spaceship, his face was full of devotion and respect, and he said, "Three people from the post-era have appeared, and they want to see you. ”
After a moment of silence in the cave, a strong voice suddenly sounded, and said slowly: "Is it finally here, after so many years, it seems that the development of people in the Fifth Age is very slow...... Hey?! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly let out a shock.
"The kid in the middle, come here." An unmistakable voice rang out again from inside the mechanical ship.
Lin Chao glanced at the second daughter on the left and right sides, and said, "He asked me to go over, and you guys are waiting here." ”
The spider girl glanced at him and said, "Why did you call you over, hum, if you want to take advantage of it, no way!" With that, the first figure flashed out and flew up the stairs to the entrance to the hatch of the mechanical spaceship. (To be continued......)
