Book 375 The Serpent of Division
The monster that the magicians are talking about in the underground of the town refers to a large snake.
The magical aristocrat who owned the vicinity of the city and the entire land of southern China was a king who ruled not over the nations of the secular world, but over the magical nations of the entire Asian region. After the Reformation in the wizarding world, the constitutional monarchy, and the separation of powers, the king and the royal family no longer have any rights, just like in Europe, but they have a vast and densely populated territory that can be used to absorb spiritual power, so the royal family is very rich.
As the governing body and academy of the wizarding world, Scheming Castle knows a lot of information that ordinary magicians and minor nobles do not know, such as what kind of monsters are sealed in the territory of which nobles.
Inspired by the flash, a scheming castle magician pulls out his laptop and searches through it for a long time to find out the distribution of monsters near southern China. The closest monster to the town is a creature named the Serpent of Malaheses, an alien species, a giant gray-yellow sand snake that is about the size of a gas pipe buried in the ground.
This basilisk from a desert is more like an earthworm, because when its body is cut off, it will split into two snakes, mashed into meat puree, it will split into countless small snakes like hair, and if it is burned to death, it will become a poisonous sand poisoned creature and then resurrected in carrion, which is a very troublesome thing. The royal family thought that this thing might be used in the future, and trapped it in a chimney out of animal protection.
The snake in the desert is most afraid of water, and throwing the snake of Malahseith into the water will not kill it, but it will make it unconscious as if it is anesthetized. Water is a drug for this strange creature, and the Serpent of Malaherses will never become resistant to it.
The snake will not regain its magic from wreaking havoc on the earth, because its weakness is too obvious, and it is now tied up in a sturdy underground cistern from which it cannot escape. The magicians of the Scheming Castle thought that this brother could be put to good use, so the three of them planned in the hotel room all night. Final confirmation is feasible.
Early the next morning, the group of four people found a guide and went to the outer city, preparing to find an engineering team to help them enter the crypt where the basilisk was sealed.
The location of the Serpent that sealed Malaheses is located very deep underground, and the magicians need to carve out a passage and slowly construct the building in the ground. After a prison was built for the serpent, the entrance to the passage used for construction was blown up. Prevent ordinary people from entering by mistake. Now the magicians of the Scheming Castle are trying to find someone to dig up this passage.
They had a lot of detailed information about where the Serpent of Malaheses was being held, and after two days of contacting the team, they were able to get out of the exit in minutes with engineering explosives, revealing a facility that looked very much like a bomb shelter.
In fact, this is how they fooled the construction team, saying that they were going to dig up an underground bomb shelter built during the war. But the construction workers are not stupid, as soon as they see that the building materials below are all large pieces of stone, they know that it is not the technical style of the early years. Magicians never needed anything like cement to build a building, and they turned soil into stone on the spot and fixed the pile, and soon they were able to make a medieval-style pure stone building.
In the eyes of the construction team. This thing dug up by himself is more like a legendary ancient burial dungeon than a bomb shelter. The construction team itself is not very formal, otherwise it would not have used explosives to dig holes in the countryside without government construction approval.
The magicians didn't enter the cave in the first place, and they had to prepare some gas masks, oxygen cylinders, and other things, as well as a pumping machine and generator to drain the water from the underground pool, which gave some people the opportunity to have bad ideas.
On the night of the opening of the entrance, all the members of the construction team spontaneously gathered and prepared to enter this strange facility for exploration.
As the saying goes, the Chinese nation, which has endured hardship and poverty for a long time, will do everything for money. A group of foreigners sneaked up on China to dig around. This made the patriotic sentiments of the members of the construction team somewhat unbearable. Although he took the money to work, it doesn't mean that he won't cause trouble for foreigners.
In this way, they covered their mouths and noses with wet towels and boldly got into this so-called bomb shelter. In their view, this may be a treasure cave, and they believe that the capitalist foreigners are all unprofitable.
As a result, a group of people walked down the spiraling staircase with dizziness, not because of lack of oxygen, but simply because of the discomfort caused by too many turns. When they finally reached the bottom, they found a natural underground cave.
"This is an underground cave?!"
Some workers who prefer to watch CCTV science channels are stunned to see the cavern full of stalagmites underground. A few of the people who owe it have already started to cut stalactites with saws, you must know that these things are all formed by wearing water drop stones for thousands of years, and they can be sold for a good price when they are taken out. If you do this kind of thing in the cave area, that person will be sent to prison for violating the mineral resources law, but there is no such concern at the moment.
The mages had detected a natural crypt large enough in this place. That's why I chose to seal the Serpent of Malahses here, the air quality in the cave is good, and it seems that there are other passages to the ground.
The leader of the construction team ordered the cave to be lit up, and it was as if God had said 'Let there be light'. Soon, a large number of batteries and engineering lamps appeared, and the cave was filled with a strong contrast of light and shadow, making the place look even more mysterious.
There are more than a dozen workers eager to hunt for treasure, and the team leader is already thinking about how to resell the stalactites. So the team was divided into two teams, one of which used a qiΔ tool at hand to cut stalactites, and did not let go of any of them. The other group went deeper into the cave with walkie-talkies, dreaming of discovering King Solomon's treasure.
In the early years, treasure hunting films were not so popular in China, and if these people had watched enough treasure hunt-themed movies, they would not act rashly. You must know that in all treasure hunt films, the three elements of organs, beasts, and monsters are more important than the heroine, and those indigenous guides who help the foreign protagonist lead the way usually do not end well.
At this time, in the hotel room of the small town, the magicians had just finished counting the equipment needed to go down the crypt, and they were checking for the last time the workflow of going underground tomorrow.
The information they had showed that the Serpent of Malaheses was kept in a sealed stone ball filled with water. The ball was about 10 times 10 in size, and the snake would not wake up immediately after breaking it, but would slow down for at least a few hours. The magicians weren't going to get the snake out, it would be too dangerous, they just wanted to cut a piece of meat from the snake, and that meat would turn into a small snake. Just feed a little meat and grow into a boa constrictor, that's what they want.
When the time comes, release the snake to the community where the bird is, and those who don't know the weakness of this monster will soon be scrambling, but there will definitely be no casualties if there are living people. After Asuka is made big enough, the magicians can continue their negotiations.
It's a pity that the magicians did everything they could, and they didn't expect the construction team to be so leisurely and go underground before themselves. Not only that, but they also found the stone ball that sealed the Serpent of Malaheseth.
"Oh my God, what is this......"
Ground floor. All the members of the engineering team gathered in front of a huge hemisphere embedded in the stone wall and sighed, and a group of experienced old engineers knocked on the door, and the stone ball was judged to be hollow inside, as if something was hidden.
At this time, the workers were holding the punching equipment and detonators, looking at their boss with blank eyes.
"Boss, shall we open it?"
The engineering leader, who was known for his courage to fight and kill to make money, felt a stalactite and fell into thought, and he did not realize that he was not the protagonist of an expedition story, or even the protagonist of any story. Under the trend of curiosity and interest. The team leader ordered the ball to be punched for a small blast.
The outer wall of the stone ball is very thick, and it has not penetrated or leaked after a few eyes. A small detonator with a limited thickness of a toothpick was stuffed inside, and the stone ball cracked after the boom.
"Strange, how did it crack?"
An engineer specializing in blasting looked puzzled, he thought that the stone ball would only be blown out of a hole, and he was completely unaware that the stone ball still contained more than 500 cubic meters of water, and the weight of the water affected his blasting results.
What happened next is quite logical. The entire stone ball suddenly exploded, and a large amount of clear water and an unpretentious earthy yellow giant snake poured out inside.
The outer wall of the stone ball that was washed away by the current slammed several people unconscious on the spot, and the ensuing stream of water washed everyone towards the depths of the cavern like a flush toilet flushing away excrement, where there happened to be a crater that looked like a sewer.
The giant snake, which looked a little short and fat, fell directly on the wet ground when the ball broke because of its weight. After decades of breathing air again, it opened its mouth comfortably, revealing a mouthful of human-like herbivore teeth, which looked very weird-
Early the next morning, Zhou Shu saw the news of the monster on TV again. Unlike in the past, this time the monster appeared on the doorstep.
"It's a good thing I didn't leave here with those second-class magicians, otherwise someone would be the protector of the city. β
Zhou Shu, who considers himself a protector, is also too lazy to go to the suburbs, and said in the news that a snake many times smaller than a thousand-foot fairy is wreaking havoc in the countryside next door to the small city, and it looks like it has eaten three or five people. Now that everyone has been evacuated, CCTV's interview helicopter is broadcasting live from the sky that this monster is happily eating the white radish in the greenhouse.
"Why is there a greenhouse white radish this season, are the farmers in my country so high-end?" Wu Lami complained while eating potato chips on the side, and also felt that this monster was nothing remarkable, and it was estimated that after a while, someone from the zoo would carry a tranquilizer gun to take it away, and he might be able to see this guy in the zoo next week.
The Grey Witch didn't know the situation and background information of this monster, there were thousands of monsters in the world that were born for some strange reasons, and they couldn't have known about every single one, and this somewhat funny-looking basilisk didn't attract their attention at all. Therefore, she didn't specifically call Zhou Shu.
The only people who were troubled by the current situation were naturally the three magicians of the Scheming Castle.
"Oops, oops, awful......"
The three of them chanted the word in a chorus.
Although they couldn't understand Chinese and couldn't understand what the host on the TV in the room was talking about, they could be sure that the guy on the TV was the basilisk they were about to release.
It was only now that the magicians realized that those damn engineering teams must have secretly burrowed into the crypt to do something, but now it's okay, the armed police have gathered with guns and are ready to get to work.
The Serpent of Malaherses belongs to the kind of snake that you don't mess with it, and its danger is very small. The more you fight against it, the more likely it is to destroy the monster type in the Miè world.
The magician then pulled the flash over to discuss it, and agreed not to mention it to each other, as if the strange snake had escaped from the stone ball that had lost its magic reinforcement. No matter which country's civil servants have a good ability to shirk responsibility, Glitter is happy to see this snake provoke chaos, and the greater the chaos, the greater the likelihood that Asuka is willing to reform himself.
Perhaps God had mercy on the battlefield mage who heard his prayers. For some reason, the armed police took the initiative to attack the strange snake, with the aim of killing it instead of capturing it.
Magicians don't have their own power in China, after all, this is a country that was unanimously xenophobic more than 30 years ago, and magicians can't say anything in the entire Chinese political circle.
They had no way to know about the snake, so they could only stare blankly at the TV scene of shooting the basilisk.
The host's tone on TV is very excited, and there is some meaning that Li Chunji is possessed. She said something like 'the murderous monster can't stay', praising the leading cadres' determination to avenge the victims.
Zhou Shu and the others watched this thing as a pastime around the TV, but soon he couldn't watch it anymore. The serpent had happily chewed on the white radish and dirt with its omnivorous teeth. The sudden rain of bullets and bullets smashed it all over its body, and blood splattered all over its body. The camera pans to a middle-aged man in a white lab coat who wants to collect some tissue samples from the snake and walks towards a piece of flesh that has been blown away.
He was just about to use tweezers to clamp the thing, when the piece of flesh under the camera suddenly shakes, and then stretches and lengthens in a strange way to produce the skin of the head and tail, completely turning into a yellow snake.
The finger-sized snake jumped up on the spot and bit off a piece of flesh from the injury on the white coat, and it can be seen from here that this guy is definitely not a snake that can only swallow raw without a jaw and bite force. It's a beast that knows how to bite.
After the meat was swallowed by the snake, the baby snake grew a little faster than the naked eye. Then he continued to jump up and pounce on the person in front of him.
The potato chips in Ula My's mouth were spit out by her, she couldn't eat them anymore, the camera shook for a while, the scene was full of noise and screams, and then the signal was cut back to the studio, and the host said with an embarrassed face that he had encountered some technical glitches.
In this regard, Zhou Shu said indignantly: "Why did the thing that appeared in Russia die when it was hit by guns." This is so troublesome in my country!"
He knew that this picture was probably broadcast all over the world by the synchronization of CCTV's courtesy exchanges, and he was expecting to raise the prestige of our country, but then it was embarrassing......
Although Yu Feiniao didn't know this monster either, she knew very well the physiology of similar creatures.
"The snake's body tissue can split on its own, and I wonder if this thing really has a brain. Maybe it's just nerve cells that play a simple brain role, just like earthworms. The evidence of this is its dividing pattern and velocity, which suggests that its body structure is fairly simple, and I was curious about its cells. β
Zhou Shu smiled bitterly when he heard this, "Your family really likes earthworms." β
Yu Feiniao kicked him, "This is not my family's monster, I'm just guessing casually." β
"Is this thing a hassle?"
"No, it won't. Yu Feiniao waved his hand, "Judging from the TV, its cell assimilation ability is very strong, and it can turn other animal tissues into its own cells, so as long as it doesn't let it eat the meat and then slowly grabs it and locks it up, it should be no problem, you can also see, this monster is nothing special in terms of strength." β
Zhou Shu heard the premise of 'not letting it eat meat' that Yu Feiniao said, and felt that this was completely a flag, and the monster would definitely be able to eat to its heart'......
As Zhou Shu expected, the snake of Malaheses, whose body was damaged by machine gun bullets, turned into tens of thousands of small snakes, and fled without knowing where to go, and only a few were captured.
The army was not hurt by this little snake, at most a few people were about to break their boots and lose a few toes of Cheng DΓΉ. And yet just a day later......
The next day, Yang Xi came to Zhou Shu to play here during the school holidays, but in fact, she grabbed her mobile phone and wanted Zhou Shu to take a picture of her wearing the golden knight's armor.
Zhou Shu pointed to the TV at the girl and asked her to watch it honestly. Almost all TV stations have to insert a statement every half an hour, saying that a kind of basilisk is abusing the land of my God, specifically the one acre and three points of land around the small city. CCTV warns the public not to kill the snake after discovering it, try to catch it as much as possible, and you can take things to set up a location in exchange for a monetary reward. If you are too big to be subdued, call the police and remember not to hurt the snakes.
This is followed by a promotional video of snake catching skills, the little snake has a very low IQ, and can attract all its attention by finding a wooden stick, and can subdue and anesthetize it with a water gun and a water balloon. However, this thing has a strong bite force, and luckily it is not poisonous.
Yu Feiniao laughed, "It seems that the country has discovered that this snake will be divided." β
Wu Lami thinks that the practice of letting the people catch snakes and receive rewards is completely a mentally retarded policy, and does he still think that this is the era of exterminating the four evils in the past?
I know it with my toes, not to mention whether the person who grabbed it will think that this strange snake has a strong appreciation potential and will not hand it over, and what is even more terrifying is that if it is discovered, this snake can be divided indefinitely, as long as it is given meat, it will soon grow up and then split. The number of snakes will increase dramatically, and everyone will start raising snakes and receive rewards from the government.
"It's simply the level of a planned economy. Wu Lami scoffed at the policy that he came up with with a pat on his head, and he ordered his man unceremoniously: "Zhou Shu, you go to the market to buy a few hundred catties of chicken, duck and fish meat, and come back, the price of meat food will definitely rise in a few days, let's stay first." β
ps: The cruel things in our book will be brushed aside, and the style is like this, and the chaos caused by the monsters will be very large, but it will not involve a large number of casualties.
I just read a book of the end of the world yesterday.,As long as it's a female character, there's a lot of description of rape.,All kinds of abuse.γ The world is declining, and there are really not many Qingshui writers like us.
