Chapter 120: Brain in a Jar

After waiting for an hourglass in the passage of the "North Tower", the Thor Stone Monster that had gone to explore the path finally returned. This protist of the earth elemental plane with three arms, three legs and three eyes was very excited, and as soon as he saw Sneijder, who had made a pact with him, he spoke non-stop in the Turkish language of the elemental plane.

"Mr. Mage, what about the agreed reward, if you are not willing to pay, you can replace it with maintaining me on this physical plane for a while longer. The voice of the Thor Stone Monster is continuous and dull, and it uses gestures to help it speak words that are not found in the Turkish language.

With its strange and fierce form, people who don't understand the language will really mistake it for an attack. Thankfully, two of the team, including the half-lich Snead and Quis, could understand what it was saying. Sneijder was in charge of communicating with him, and Quest was in charge of translating to everyone.

The steampunk half-lich manipulated the mechanical prosthetic leg and handed over the promised reward for the blue crystal cluster, while asking, "The reward can be paid, and the summoning time on the material plane is no problem." But first, tell me why this proposal came out of nowhere, and how we agreed to give me a map of the complete traps and structures of this place. ”

Perhaps because of his anatomy, Sneijder's Turkish language always had sounds like gears grinding and the clanging of wrought iron. As he spoke, he handed Thor Stone an enchanted scroll. Using this scroll, the message it wants to convey can be projected out of the brain intact. Perhaps pleased with the summoner's generosity, the monster took the scroll for a copy of his memory without thinking about anything else.

At the same time, it continued: "Generous summoners, you have come here to find a good place to hunt for treasure. Not far from the ground there is a large chamber with many delicious crystals in it. The Thor Stone Monster danced and described what he had seen as he showed the copied memory scroll to the crowd, a room with many cylindrical crystal walls and various synthetic beasts sleeping in it. It's just that for the strange monster who responded to the call, the cylindrical crystal walls are his favorite: "Although there may be some dangerous creatures locked up in those crystal walls, I think it shouldn't be too much of a problem to just dig a few small pieces of each wall and eat them." It's just that the hardness of that thing is comparable to diamond, and I only picked off two or three small pieces after a long time, and I guess I can't bite the teeth of the cubs when I bring them back to my hometown......"

The Thor Stone Monster seemed to be stimulated to talk about sex, and its "boom" like falling rocks kept talking, but it did not forget its duty. In addition to the "delicacies" that he had in mind, he carefully marked the locations of almost all the traps in the North Tower, and was also very enthusiastic to explain to the summoners of these material planes.

"This passage is really just a spiraling downward branch, and although it leads to the secret room full of food, it seems that there will be a lot of trouble in the middle," said the Thor Stone Monster, pointing to the wall of the corridor where everyone was staying, "We can go this way, and if any of you can help me dig together, we can quickly open a way to a steam manhole from which to fall vertically into the chamber below." ”

While it explains, the half-lich uses a "detection lie" without a trace. The results showed that the creature was not enchanted or otherwise disturbed, meaning it was true. After communicating with Quis and the others, Sneijder, as the summoner, first fulfilled his promise and extended the time to summon Thor Stone again, and then used "Fossil as Mud" for the location pointed out by Thor Stone. The granite walls, which had been relatively hard, turned into a puddle of soft mud, and Quest used his field ability to clear the mud, and a self-carved shortcut appeared in front of everyone.

However, due to the fact that Thor Stone Monster survives in the high-pressure and high-temperature earth elemental plane all year round, it ignores that this "shortcut" path may be dangerous for creatures in the material plane. As the rock was cleared out of the mud, a stream of scorching steam erupted. Fortunately, the team members present were all "rough-skinned and thick-skinned" blood cows, and this accident did not cause any harm to everyone.

"It's not a manhole, it's supposed to be a power facility that collects geothermal energy. Kiss, who had fused the heart of the golden dragon, was naturally not afraid of the heat, and he walked at the front of the line and stroked the wall of the vertical passage that the Thor Stone Monster called "Manhole", which felt very similar to some kind of cement material. In this steam pipeline, there is a turbine structure in the shape of a fan blade every few tens of meters, and the heat drawn from the underground volcano causes the transpiration gas to rise, and then pushes the turbine structure to rotate, converting the heat energy into kinetic energy.

After determining the approximate depth of the chamber with Thorstone, Quest and Sneijder still released the "Feather Fall Technique" for everyone, but this time they also needed to impose "environmental resistance" on the members other than the two of them as insurance. The descent through the steam tunnels was certainly not pleasant, but it did arrive at its destination without incident. Still using the "Fossil to Mud" spell to open the way, the delicious and fertile land in the mouth of the strange man appeared in front of everyone.

Unlike the previous "North Tower", this secret room is not only extremely spacious but also very bright. The source of the light was a green fluorescent powder that smeared the ceiling and floor, allowing even ordinary humans like Paladin Jensen to see their surroundings clearly. The air here was dry, and there was only a slight amount of moisture due to the fact that Team Quest had opened the steam pipes, and there was not even the slightest hint of mildew that could be smelled in the usual crypt chambers.

Strangely enough, the top and feet were so bright, only the walls were dark. However, this also reflects the environment of the "secret room", and highlights the countless synthetic beast cultivation tanks displayed here. Sneijder, who has also been immersed in his own experiments for many years, is no stranger to biochemical modification experiments, and as an expert, he is full of praise for the environment here.

Some probes protruded from his mechanical prosthetic body, and the data he came up with after fiddling with it confirmed his suspicions: "It's really professional, even better than my previous lab." The temperature and humidity were kept fairly well, and we didn't get a lot of steam after opening the steam tunnels, probably because the Soulbinder Mage had specially designed some ventilation and dehumidification facilities. ”

Quisi Yinghe, who was standing in front of a culture tank and observing carefully, said: "Not only that, but the lighting here is not the usual warm light, and the light emitted by fluorite powder has almost no effect on the increase in temperature. Moreover, under the irradiation of these fluorescences, the flesh and blood tissues labeled with special materials in advance in the culture tank can intuitively show their growth and development. A truly genius design. ”

The two exchanged voices very loudly, and it was obvious that they meant something. In fact, as early as when they entered this secret room, they felt a spell fluctuation similar to the one that existed on the captured Soul Binding Crystal before. Not surprisingly, the loud praise of the two has not yet ended, and the main owner here "can't wait" to reveal his figure.

With the sound of rubbing between the rocks, a crack opened in the ground in the middle of the chamber. A spell detection ripple spread, and the young blue dragon, who had been prepared for a long time, directly took out the crystal of "Beast Heart and Beast Body" that he carried with him and had been merged into one, and this spar also emitted a light of the same color as the detection ripple. As if it had been verified, a culture tank slowly rose from a crack in the ground in the middle of the chamber. Through the glow of the fluorite powder, everyone could clearly see what was suspended in the cultivation tankβ€”

An intact brain.
