Chapter 208: Treasure
Lynn talked a lot about this strange standing scorpion.
From the beginning, it asked Lin about the reason for the war, and when it arrived, it became Lin asking him questions, and Lin found that it did not have a strong hatred for the Emerald Dragon like other scorpions, but a calmer feeling......
Why is this happening? Maybe it's because the brain was affected when it was transformed, and indeed, those flying scorpions were also not very angry with the jade dragon.
However, because of this, Lin was also able to learn some details about the scorpion.
The Scorpions have always maintained a relatively peaceful lifestyle, in fact, they discovered the Emerald Dragon City very early, but they had no intention of attacking it.
The scorpion also does not have a leader, but maintains a group life with a personality but a similar division of labor.
So far, these are just as Lin imagined, and if she asks the scorpion some questions about their life in detail, it will explain, and Lin will tell it something about the life of the Emerald Dragon, and she has a strong curiosity and likes to listen to it.
Actually, the word 'curiosity' is very strange, because the mind has no thoughts, so why should it be curious?
Lin was able to confirm that it was pure curiosity and had no other purpose, because Lin did not tell it about the combat strength of the Emerald Dragon's army, but only about the habits of the Emerald Dragon, and it was obviously very interested.
And under the exchange of information between the two sides, Lin asked step by step about the transformation of the scorpion, why was the scorpion able to transform like this? And why does it start to deform until the end?
When Lin asked him these questions, he uncharacteristically said nothing, as if the scorpion did not want to tell SΓΉ Lin about the answer.
This may be because of the military secrets at stake in them. As a matter of fact. Lin didn't think there was any need to hide it. Now the emerald dragon knows that eggs are standing scorpions that give birth to various forms, and they will definitely find various ways to destroy these eggs in the future.
If there is a later.
Under repeated questioning, the scorpion finally uttered one word: "Treasure." β
The word treasure refers to a large and abundant resource, but it also refers to something very rare and valuable, but what does the transformation of the scorpion have to do with treasure?
Here's what the scorpion said: "We have acquired the treasure, so we are able to have this ability. β
But it refused to mention the other details, and then it continued to ask Lin about the life of the Emerald Dragon and so on......
It seems difficult to get more information.
But about the 'treasure'...... Lynn should have looked into it.
It was impossible for the scorpion to deceive Lynn. Because Lin can sense whether the other party is telling the truth or a lie, when a creature says something that does not match his thinking, it will always have some special expressions, and the feelings will be different.
This treasure, Lin speculated, was probably a remnant of the Ates, and perhaps it had some special function to make the scorpion deform, but there were limitations...... Where the hell is this thing? Does it have anything to do with the mastermind?
Lynn's spy talked to the scorpion for a while, and Lin asked about the mastermind here, and the scorpion said that the brain was brought here from underground, but it didn't look useful.
It seems that they don't care about the dead masterminds of the Ates. Lynn told it that she didn't plan to leave until it got dark.
And this standing scorpion seems to intend to stay here. It didn't fight, and it wouldn't say why it was here.
Anyway, let's find out where this 'treasure of the Ates' is.
Lynn may have some clues...... Maybe you'll find something in the Crystalline Glade, the scorpions did live outside at first, but when all the crazy scorpions they had in the ground were dead, they ran there and dug up something, maybe they found something there.
However, we also need to look among these pyramids.
Seeing Lynn's spy standing up, Scorpion asked, "Going?" β
"yes, I'm leaving." Lynn replied simply.
"Nope." At the moment when he finished making this sound, the scorpion rushed over! Its forelimbs slashed at the Spy's neck.
However, Lynn dodged it easily.
The scorpion looked at the spy and said slowly: "The war is not over yet, Jade Dragon...... Can't live. β
"Then keep up the good work." With that, Lynn's spy disappeared into thin air.
Although it has been communicating with it for so long, it seems that it still maintains the idea of killing the jade dragon, which is a rather peculiar thing.
Generally speaking, after communicating with a creature for a long time, they will develop 'feelings', which will prevent it from wanting to attack the other person, but the scorpion does not seem to do this, it is purely asking about what it wants to know.
Soon, Lin left the Scorpion City and headed in the direction of the Crystalline Glade, hoping to find something there.
On the other side, Lin is also exploring the island about the White Skeleton Dragon, and the two forces are exploring separately from the coastline of this continent at the same time, and the island is probably very close to the land, so it should be easy to spot.
Now, at the edge of the swampy jungle, the Emerald Dragons were ready to deal with the Flying Scorpion, and under Susumi's command, the Emerald Dragons worked quickly, but it still took a lot of time to prepare.
And the group of flying scorpions has been hovering in the sky almost all the time, and has never intended to attack, and the jade dragon has never dared to slack off, each of them holding bows and arrows, looking nervously at the sky.
Until Susumi prepares a special weapon made of swamp wood.
The emerald dragons first climbed up the tree and tied it to the crown with a rope made of soft and resilient vines picked from the swamp, and then the emerald dragon below pulled the whole tree down with great force.
The swamp wood was one such plant, and it itself was able to bend so much without breaking, and the emerald dragon below pulled the entire tree down to near the ground, and then they braided the large leaves of the swamp wood into the shape of a bowl, and then placed a stone in the bowl of leaves.
Next, just let go of the rope and the swamp wood will bounce up instantly! Stones will fly into the sky, too!
After a series of adjustments, Susumi had tested this method from a distance, and finally they were going to directly hit the standing scorpions in the air at the edge of the swampy woodland!
While the war was still going on, outside the distant Emerald Dragon City, twelve gray figures also came to this place. (To be continued......)
