Chapter 509: Xiao Shen Snake's Redemption
"Woo......"
The entire underground of the dark cave suddenly echoed with the screams of the snake, filled with extreme anger and unwillingness.
"Finally, it's over......"
The watchman was paralyzed in the enchantment like a noodle, his face was bloodless, only the blood marks in the corners of his eyes and in front of his nose were clearly visible.
"Careless, I knew that there was such a fierce ...... and I should have prepared more" The beating man smiled weakly.
"Don't talk anymore......" Tina looked at him eagerly and distressedly, waving her hands and blessings on him.
"Now that the Seal Snake is over, can he come out?" Tina asked, looking at the others.
"It's time to say goodbye so soon...... Tsk, don't say, I've been chatting with Xiaoba every day for so many years, and now I suddenly want to separate, it's really a little lonely to think about it......" The watchman recovered some strength at this time, sat up from the ground, looked at the darkness above his head, and showed a somewhat sad expression.
"If you don't give up, you can stay here." The herb picker suddenly sneered.
"Ahem, I'm talking about it...... Okay, I'm really at the limit, let me go, please......" The watchman instantly confessed.
When Mu You didn't come before, he could still hang in one breath, but now that he has relaxed in a wave, it is almost impossible to condense the previous willpower.
"Anyway, it's finally done......"
The huge body of the manticore sat on the ground, recalling the feeling of being shrouded by the snake pupil just now, and still had palpitations.
"Giggles, just such a small scene scared you to paralysis?" The bone dragon next to him immediately seized the opportunity to laugh, and boasted about his exploits back then: "I think that back then, our dragons in Dragon Valley had personally resisted the attack of the Yan Niu, and they had resisted it for hundreds of years and never let it invade the Dragon Valley for half a step, and in the end, even the Yan Niu had no choice but to retreat......
Hearing this, the manticore looked at the bone dragon with disdain and sneered, "Before you say anything, can you hide your still trembling claws?" ”
Mu You looked at the bickering of the two divine beasts, smiled slightly, and felt very relieved in his heart.
I have to say that this action just now was indeed very thrilling, if Gu Snake's resistance was more intense, slightly interfering with his actions, causing the holy spear to stab a little, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Fortunately, this is the period of decline in the strength of the snake, and if it had been carried out four thousand years ago, the seal would most likely fail.
"Thrilling ......"
"Is it just thrilling?"
The lamp god heard Mu You's emotion, but he couldn't help frowning.
"How?" Mu You looked at him puzzled.
"I don't know what's going on, I always feel that it shouldn't be so simple......" The lamp god frowned and looked at the holy spear in the distance, his eyes were a little solemn: "After all, this is the snake, even if it is a period of weak strength......"
Gods like him, who had personally faced snakes in their heyday, knew very well what the concept of the Catastrophe Beast was, and all the Protoss had a fear of the four Catastrophe Beasts hidden deep in their bones.
Therefore, even if it is now the period of weakness of the snake, even if there is a seal of a special venue, coupled with the suppression of the guards, the power is greatly dispersed to the goblins and other heavy suppressions, the lamp god still feels that the snake can burst out with enough energy to make them lose their troops, even if the seal is successful in the end, they will inevitably be exhausted, and even the end of losing many people.
And the process just now seemed thrilling, but in fact, Gu Snake did not break out into any too fierce resistance during the whole process, and they were not even forced out of a wound on the surface, which made the lamp god feel very unreal.
Gu Snake, is it really weak to this extent?
Or is it ......
"Boom ......"
Before the god of lights could figure it out, a violent vibration rose out of thin air from under everyone's feet.
Not only the ground, but all the mountains in the entire cavern suddenly began to shake.
"Huh? Earthquake? "The watchman who was about to get out of the enchantment was surprised.
"It's just ...... at this time" Mu You frowned, combined with the words of the lamp god just now, it had already given him a bad premonition.
At this time, he suddenly felt a strange movement in the ring, reached out and wiped it, and took out a stone plate, which was the twin stones that Linglong gave him.
At this moment, a line of words has appeared on the stone plate.
"What did you do?!"
"What's wrong?" Mu You hurriedly asked with lettering.
"The goblins just rioted!"
……
At this moment, in the palace of the Rose City, Linglong stood firmly on the top of the tallest spire nearby, looking at the city below that was on fire everywhere and in chaos, and her brows were furrowed.
Beside her, the green-clothed and green-winged flower fairy was holding his head, his face full of pain.
"What the hell is going on? Elly-chan? Linglong asked.
"I received a message...... Just now, all the goblins had a picture conveyed in their minds......" Isabelli said with pain.
"What's the picture?"
"Lord of Calamity...... The picture of the fairy king cutting into pieces of flesh...... "The pain on Isabelle's face became heavier and heavier, and a trace of black qi gradually began to overflow from her body.
"This ......"
Linglong was shocked when she heard this.
The Calamity Lord killed the Elf King four thousand years ago, at the bottom of the Caverns, when only three of them, Tina and Gargamel, were on the scene, and Tina and Gargamel had already passed out.
In other words, there were only three of them who witnessed this incident, and how could the three of them spread the word...... Wait a minute!
Linglong suddenly realized something, at that time, they were not the only ones on the scene, there was also one: Gu Snake!
Did the snake pass on the image to all the goblins?
It's not impossible, after all, the snake tail with the snake is the bitter mother tree, and it is not surprising that the root of the birth of all goblins is that the mother tree and the goblins maintain some kind of connection.
In addition, the main body should have been sealing the snake just now, and it is likely that the snake took advantage of the brief interval when the sealing spear was pulled out to spread this information through the snake's tail!
Thinking about everything, Linglong couldn't help but smile bitterly.
Now it doesn't matter how the news came out, the key is the impact of this matter.
By this time, she had heard shouts from below, and many elves and a few human inhabitants were angrily rushing towards the palace, intending to storm the gates.
As the crowd approached, she quickly recognized what the goblins were shouting.
"Fool, enemy!"
"The Fool is using us to make us kill each other for so many years......"
"Kill those fools and avenge the king! Avenge your dead compatriots! ”
……
As expected, it is no wonder that the goblins are not only fighting against the Lord of Calamity, but all the fools, after all, the three of them were present in the picture at the time, and they were obviously in a group.
You must know that the establishment of the three goblin kingdoms is completely based on the personality cult of the three kings, and they have been fighting for the three kings for so many years, and now it has been revealed that the three kings are in a group, and they have joined forces to kill the goblin king, which suddenly made all the goblins collapse in faith, and almost all of them entered a semi-black state.
As for the humans in the Garden of Bitterness, most of them have not yet figured out what is happening, but there are a few who have joined the army of the Fools, and their proportion is rapidly expanding.
"Lord Linglong, this is ...... Are you sure? Isabelli looked at Linglong with a painful face, but there was still a hint of anticipation in her eyes, hoping to get a negative answer.
"It's true, but it's ......"
Linglong wanted to explain, but when she opened her mouth, she found that there was nothing to say.
Even though they had all sorts of reasons at the time, it was always true that they had killed the Fairy King.
That alone was enough to make the elves' trust in them collapse.
I have to say that Gu Snake's hand is really ruthless, and he has not endured it for so many years, and now it suddenly bursts out, which not only arouses the hatred of the goblin clan for the fool, but also perfectly eats the faith that the three of them have been operating in the goblin clan for so many years, and a wave has brought countless goblins into the edge of weirdness.
Once the goblins drop to a certain number, the snake will be able to regain its strength, and on its own it will be able to remove the sealed spear and get out of trouble.
Linglong had to sigh, no wonder Gu Snake was called the natural disaster beast that was best at causing wars by the Protoss, this trick of sowing discord had long become an instinct like eating and drinking, and it was easy to come by.
Isabelli was still waiting for Linglong's answer, but Linglong's silence spoke for itself.
The last glimmer of hope in Isabelle's eyes was extinguished, her eyes filled with tears, her fists clenched, and finally she turned around sadly.
"Run, I'm not going to reveal your location to them......"
"Eli-chan ......" Linglong looked at her contract goblin distressedly, and subconsciously wanted to reach out to her.
The green elf hurriedly flapped its wings to dodge, wiped away its tears, and flew away from the top of the tower without looking back.
"Alas......"
Linglong sighed, and could only watch her go away.
At this time, there was a sudden movement on the stone slab in his hand, and Linglong hurriedly raised it to see that there was an extra line of words on the twin stones.
"Remember what I told you? The location was directly north of the entrance to the cave, under the silver fruit tree ten miles away. ”
Linglong was stunned for a moment, and she confirmed this tone in a second: it was definitely that dead man's face!
As for 'that thing' he said, Linglong also had an impression.
It was shortly after the Great Calamity, the herb pickers invented the sweet potion formula, and vigorously collected the blood of true love, and in the following hundreds of years, a large number of sweet potions were produced one after another, but they did not mean to distribute them to the goblins, but instead stored all the potions, saying that they were to be used as strategic reserves.
And right now, it's undoubtedly the time when this batch of potions is needed the most!
"This dead face, did you expect this to happen at that time?" Linglong was a little surprised, but she didn't have time to think about it at this time, so she hurriedly fell back into the palace, found the little spider Gargamel and others, and immediately set off to the place written on the stone plate.
……
"You expected that?"
At the bottom of the dark cave, Mu You looked at the words on the stone plate that had just been carved by the medicine picker, and looked at him a little strangely.
Synchronizing the memories of the herb pickers, of course he knew that over the years, the herb pickers had silently stored thousands of bottles of sweet potions, all stored in one place.
At that time, when he watched the memory, he still wondered why he went to such a thankless point to make such preparations. Who would have thought that it would actually be used now!
"I'm not used to pinning my hopes on someone other than me when I'm planning things." The herb picker said expressionlessly.
Mu You was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled bitterly, what he meant by this was that even the watchman and Linglong were listed as imaginary objects of suspicion, and even the possibility of betrayal by the two of them was considered.
"The above matters, leave it to Linglong to deal with. We have a lot of problems here. ”
The herb picker said, looking in a certain direction in the distance.
In the open space over there, there were the medicine baskets and iron cages he had just brought, and at this time, the dark cave beast that was locked in the cage suddenly seemed to be crazy, and began to pound the cage frantically.
"Sure enough, it began...... "The herb picker said solemnly.
"Start what?" Mu You frowned.
The herb picker did not answer, but took out a short metal stick from his sleeve and held it in his hand.
Mu You had never seen this thing, but he still found information about this thing from the memories of Linglong and the medicine picker: Archiver!
"Turn on the lights! Maximum power! ”
The herb picker suddenly shouted in the direction of the barrier.
The watchman who was still in the enchantment was stunned, but he also saw the urgency of the medicine picker, and he didn't dare to ask more, and hurriedly controlled the light of the enchantment with all his might, shining in all directions.
Under the urging of all his strength, the dazzling beam of light suddenly reflected nearly a thousand meters away, illuminating the bottom of the dark cave as bright as day.
Everyone instinctively looked up, but when they saw it, they all gasped.
I saw that at this time, above their heads, countless dark cave creatures were climbing on the surrounding rock walls, rushing towards the ground at a rapid pace, densely packed, at least hundreds of thousands!
"Be careful, you guys!" The watchman was shocked.
Everyone hurriedly took out their weapons and prepared to meet the enemy.
These Cave Beasts are not strong, but no matter how weak they are, once multiplied by this terrifying number, they will become disasters in an instant!
Everyone was ready for a fierce battle.
Soon, however, the cave beasts landed one after another, falling straight down like a raging black waterfall, but the target was not them, but the snake!
Countless pitch-black creatures washed over the surface of the snake's body like splashes of ink, filling the entire underground almost instantly.
Everyone drew their swords and looked around in a daze, and they didn't understand what the situation was for a while.
"Wait, that's not right!"
At this time, the watchman suddenly shouted.
"What's wrong?" The lamp god asked hurriedly.
"The snake seems to have escaped!"
"What?" The lantern god was shocked and hurriedly looked towards the holy spear.
However, the holy spear still stood firmly in place, unmoved like a mountain, and the snake under it was also safely suppressed, and there was no sign of getting out of the trap.
"Not the body of a serpent, but its soul...... A large part of the consciousness of the snake just now disappeared directly! The beater's forehead was sweating, his heart was beating wildly, and he had a premonition that something was wrong.
He was directly connected to the will of the snake, and he had the clearest perception of this connection, and he could be sure that the part of consciousness that had disappeared had completely escaped from the snake's current body!
"Hachi, what did you do?" The watchman hurriedly questioned in his consciousness.
"What did I do? Hehe, didn't you teach me? Gu Snake's sneering voice sounded: "The way of salvation is in it!" ”
"Ah......h
The watchman was stunned for a moment, and immediately recalled the past.
After he became the caretaker, he and Gu Snake can be said to hurt each other mentally every day, although he never gave in, but he was indeed tossed by Gu Snake enough, and there was no time to sleep peacefully every day.
Until one day a few years later, when the watchman was bored, he accidentally told Gu Snake about the movie "The Shawshank Redemption".
Miraculously, since that day, Gu Snake no longer mentally tortured him 24 hours a day, but would set aside an hour a day as a 'truce' for both sides to rest.
I didn't think much about it, but I thought that Gu Snake was also harassed by his words, and he had to set aside a little quiet time for himself every day.
It was only at this point that after most of the snake's consciousness had escaped, the remaining will could no longer resist his inquiry, and some deeply hidden memories were finally revealed.
It was from these memories that people were more horrified to discover that Gu Snake had been secretly planning to 'escape from prison' all these years!
I don't know what day it started, Gu Snake suddenly discovered that the seal of the holy spear had been loosened to the point where it could slowly molt its body!
Although it can only shed a snakeskin the size of gravel every day, it can't carry its will at all, but as long as it has enough time to accumulate, sooner or later it can accumulate to the point where it can carry its thoughts!
And its will + its snake skin can be equated with one of its incarnations! It doesn't matter if this incarnation is very weak, it is originally the incarnation of natural disasters, as long as you can escape from here, go out and absorb negative emotions, you can grow up quickly, and then come back and pull out the holy spear and rescue the body!
However, this matter must be carried out in absolute secrecy, because the snake scales it sheds are too fragile before they are formed, and these people can destroy them with a single blow.
And it is always connected to the will of the guards, and once it has the slightest intention of escaping, the guards can immediately detect it, and thus interrupt its plans.
Therefore, Gu Snake has been mentally harassing the watchman every day for many years, just to make him exhausted, and at the same time leave an hour of rest, so that the watchman has to seize this hour to sleep.
It is only during this hour of sleep that the caretaker's mental connection will be slightly relaxed, and this is also a rare free time for the snake to secretly carry out its molting plan, but it also needs to be careful, once the watchman shows signs of waking up halfway, he must stop immediately, and even eliminate all thoughts about prison escape from his consciousness.
In this way, the snake carefully shed a trace of snake scales the size of gravel every day, and persisted for a full 4,000 years, and finally gathered sand into a tower, condensing a snake skin large enough to carry most of its will to escape from this place!
The watchman saw these hidden memories of Gu Snake, and was immediately dumbfounded: ", I'll tell you a story, it's to let you reform yourself, be a snake, and achieve self-redemption, not for you to learn from other people's prison escapes!" ”
