Chapter 556: An Accidental Discovery

To be honest, it is not surprising that the monster is underground. After all, the monsters of this world are either at the bottom of the sea or underground. It's just that he really doesn't like the underground very much, and the reason is very simple——— most of the underground passages are very narrow, and it is very troublesome to walk. After all, if you get stuck, it's troublesome to figure it out.

But...............

"Huh? But what happened to those corpses after that? ”

"It's likely that it was poached by monsters."

"Are they so smart? No, didn't Mr. Vinscott say he blew up the passage? ”

"It's not surprising that there is more than one passage to the surface, after all, didn't Vinscot say it before, after they went down to the ground, they saw a wall sealed on the side of the passage. From this point of view, those monsters didn't go to the surface through here at all. It's just that Vinscot himself thinks that those monsters have been living underground, and maybe they will come out of a hole at every turn......... Hey, that's when I really want to fill lava. ”

Saying this, Duanmu Huai sighed. The same was true for the rats and orcs at that time, the most troublesome thing in the underground was that the underground passages were in all directions, and you weren't sure if the other party would run away from somewhere after you entered. Therefore, when encountering this kind of thing, Duanmu locust is directly filled with magma.

But not here, after all, it is located below the town, and if this is poured down, it must be roasted on top.

"So what to do?"

"Don't worry, I've already sent Suzume to investigate, she should be fine."

Of course, Duanmu Huai couldn't just crash into the ground, so he sent Suzume first, after all, Suzumi is now a black cat, petite, and can easily drill through places that humans can't drill.

"So what are we going to do now?"

"Let's go to the hotel for a night's rest, others pay for us to stay, don't we live in vain?"

Cornwall is not a particularly well-known tourist attraction, but there are still hotels that can be handled, since the Earl of Best said that the board and lodging here are all-inclusive, naturally they also booked three luxurious rooms for them, so after dinner, the group returned to the hotel to rest———Well, at least here, they don't have to worry about the idiot zombies who worship the old rulers to find trouble for themselves.

"Hoo ..............."

After sorting out her notes, Mary also breathed a sigh of relief, and then she went into the bathroom, intending to take a good shower and eliminate the fatigue on her body. I have to say that although I had thought about learning Watson's way of writing before, when I actually wrote it, Mary found that things were much more difficult than she imagined, and it was nothing if she couldn't use the names of the people involved, but it was another thing to describe the process.

Especially the final battle......... How do you write it?

When Watson describes Sherlock Holmes, it's basically a battle of wits, but ...............

"Uh..............."

looked at the record in front of him, "Mr. Duanmu punched Graki away, and Mr. Duanmu directly tore Graki in half"......... Mary was really troubled by this kind of record, how to process its art into what the reader wanted to see, of course, because it was barely non-fiction, and the process could not be changed without authorization.

After all, Duanmu Huai also said that the reason why Mary Records was allowed to be published was to hope that more people could see the strength of himself and others, and what you want to do is like a Hollywood movie, and this kind of person will definitely not be trusted by the client.

For Mary, it was a real challenge.

Duanmu Huai is responsible for the killing, but the process must be beautified......... Well, for Mary, it's also quite a headache.

"Hahh..............."

Sighing softly, Mary took off her clothes and then subconsciously looked at her lower abdomen.........

"Huh?"

Unexpectedly, the mark that was supposed to be there, is gone?

"It's ???"

Mary reached out and gently touched her lower abdomen, feeling no different than usual, if she had to say that the mark that had been here before was gone.

How so?

Mary remembers very well that she was still here before, and she asked Lorena to see it, indicating that it was not her hallucination. But now, that mark has inexplicably disappeared?

But......... It's okay to disappear, at least so that I don't have to mention this somewhat shameful question to Mr. Duanmu.

Thinking of this, Mary also breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned on the shower head in front of her and began to enjoy the bath before going to bed.

Just as Mary was enjoying a leisurely break, Duanmu Huai was also rewarded by the bell girl.

"I didn't expect you to draw a map......... It's a lot more convenient. ”

Touching the black cat in her hand, Duanmu Huai also praised her, and the bell girl raised her head proudly and meowed twice. As for the rabbit on the other side——— well, still gnawing on carrots, leave her alone.

Duanmu Huai touched the black cat while looking at the drawings in front of him——— Suzumi brought him two pieces of paper, one of which was a map of the underground cave, and the other was a drawing of several monsters. Obviously, Suzume not only went down this time to draw the map, but even figured out the situation of those monsters.

First of all, as Vinscot said before, the kind of monsters that look like monkeys with white bodies, according to Suzume's report, these monsters are not threatening, they just like to hide in narrow crevices and sneak attack.

The second type is the first ghoul that Duanmu Huai encountered......... This thing is really like a cockroach, it's everywhere, it's annoying.

This could also explain why Vinscott and the others' attacks were ineffective against ghouls, after all, they had high physical resistance.

On the contrary, it was the last monster that gave Duanmu Huai a little headache.

"Snake man ...............?"

That's right, what appears on the painting is a monster that resembles a walking lizard. When humans think of snake people, they think of Medusa, whose upper body is a human and whose lower body is a snake. But the snake people in this world are completely different, they look like snakes with arms and legs that can walk upright.

The snake people, like the Ancients, were a race that flourished in this world before humans, and they even built glorious empires. It's just that unlike the ancients who were overthrown by their own slaves and eventually had to flee into the deep sea, the demise of the snake people was more unlucky.

First, the civilization that the snake people first established was destroyed in the age of the dinosaurs. Then the snake man fled into the ground, and after the dinosaurs became extinct in the Xiaoice period, the snake man returned to land again, looking like "I Hu Hansan is back again, I vomited everything I ate, and I returned everything I to", trying to rebuild the glorious civilization of the snake people.

And then they met ............... Mankind.

Because humans claimed ownership of the territory of the snake people, the two sides fought like this, and in the end, the snake people were defeated in the face of human expansion, and finally perished.

It can be seen that human beings in prehistoric times were also very fierce, after all, the snake people at that time even mastered very superb technology and magic skills, and they were actually destroyed by humans...............

After being destroyed for the second time, the survivors of the snake people fled underground again and began to hibernate again. Their plan is simple, just like in the previous days of dinosaurs, to sit back and wait for humanity to be destroyed by some natural disaster, and then they will come out and take over the world again.

Well............... How does this style of hiding if you can't beat it sound so much like some mechanical ribs?

Of course, this does not mean that snake people are no threat to humans.

However, for Duanmu Huai, the trickier thing is............... This time he's going to face the last god.

The snake people have their own god to worship, and that is the old ruler ——— the snake god Ig.

Unlike the weak Graki who had been killed by himself, the snake god Iggy was the old ruler who had survived from the time of the Ancients, and he also sheltered all the snake people who believed in him. This also means that when Duanmu Huai kills into the ground, he will inevitably have a dragon fight with the snake god Ig.

Although the snake god Iggy is not very famous, its strength should be on par with Cthulhu——— simply put, it is not impossible to deal with Duanmu Huai.

At least it's much easier to deal with than the King of the Yellow or the likes of Yogosothos and Azatoth.

Now it seems that the previous white-haired apes and ghouls should be subordinates of the snake people, and since there are snake tribes below, there must also be snake people temples and snake priests.........

"It's a little bit of a problem."

Duanmu Huai couldn't help frowning and began to look at the map. The only fortunate thing is that according to the detection of the bell girl, there is only one entrance and exit of the snake man, but the problem is that this place is heavily guarded, and entering will inevitably be discovered by the snake man, and if the other party summons the snake god Igge to come out, it will be more difficult to deal with——— mainly because Duanmu Huai does not want to fight underground, and it is still a trouble to accidentally collapse and implicate it.

But now it seems that this is the only way to go.

Now there is only one question left.

Duanmuhuai remembered where he had heard before that there are two kinds of people in this world, one is afraid of having many feet, and the other is afraid of having no feet.

The snake god snake god, as the name suggests, once it appears, it must be full of snakes all over the ground. In fact, in the game, there have been players who have said that fighting with the snake god is a nightmare, not to mention the intensity, the scene of snakes crawling up and down, left and right, is enough to leave a psychological shadow for a lifetime.

In fact, there are not a few players who have crashed because of this in the battle with the snake god, after all, many people hate that kind of smooth thing, and it would be even more of a nightmare if this thing appeared in hundreds or thousands.

I don't know......... Lorena and Mary......... Afraid of snakes?
