Chapter 79: Confiscation of property and extermination of the clan
"Yes, this place is deep under the water, forming a space of its own. Snakes themselves have extremely strong concealment. The snakes and other species here are in hibernation, so the concealment is even higher." Qin Zhiyu was also observing the weirdness here.
In all likelihood, this is the nest of the snake-man alien race, so Qin Zhiyu couldn't help but think of - the lizard man!
Where are their nests?
There are less than ten lizardmen in the stone fortress. If their cubs are also there, it is unlikely that they will not be detected.
The scale of the stone fort is much smaller than the area of the underwater bungalow and cave.
If the lizardmen were not desperate and only a few of them were left, then the stone fortress that Qin Zhiyu and the others saw should have been just a branch of the tribe.
"Boss, we're done here. There's nothing to find in the bungalow. Let's go back!" Jiang Mo looked at Qin Zhiyu eagerly.
This overwhelming, awe-inspiring feeling couldn't be better. She was willing to bathe in blood and fight for another eight hundred rounds!
"You can go back." What else could Qin Zhiyu say? He could only agree. A child whose violent genes have been aroused is really scary.
But even though it's scary, she still prefers it to be a little more "violent".
If the owner of her affiliated shelter was a weak and timid person like Lin Daiyu, she would never accept him in. Wouldn't that just be asking for trouble?
But you can take a break here and have some hot food before going back.
When leaving the shelter to go out into the wild, if conditions permit, proceed step by step and maintain your physical strength to be more conducive to survival.
"Boss, Brother Zhou Sheng is really a treasure! Where did you pick him up from?" Jiang Mo asked while eating.
Jiang Mo had to honestly say that Wen Zhousheng, whom the boss "picked up", was much more useful than her. She felt that apart from being good at eating, she hadn't discovered any other advantages of him.
"He wasn't picked up, he was..." Qin Zhiyu said halfway and thought of the time when he had just obtained Wen Zhousheng, no, 007.
"Come on, tell me, how did it come about? I want a handsome guy too!" Jiang Mo laughed and didn't feel embarrassed.
"It was given away in a lottery." Qin Zhiyu said meaningfully.
"A lucky draw? A free handsome guy? I'll go wherever there's a lucky draw!" Jiang Mo curled her lips, dissatisfied with the answer, "It's obvious that the boss deliberately didn't want me to know, humph!"
Qin Zhiyu just smiled and said nothing.
Jiang Mo was a carefree person, but he just ignored it and didn't take it to heart at all.
After a while, "Boss, I'm done eating. Let's go to the other side!" Jiang Mo cleaned up the leftovers and tables and chairs with great enthusiasm and got to work!
"Boss, if we keep killing like this, won't we wipe out their entire race?"
"It's very likely. But why are there no adult aliens here, only these pebbles?"
Qin Zhiyu frowned and thought for a moment, "Adults should live in bungalows. When the pebble matures and breaks out of its shell, it can cross the ravine and walk as an adult alien."
Jiang Mo scratched his head, "What about the aging aliens in the tribe?"
Humans have nursing homes, or they can take care of their children at home, but other races don’t know about this.
Qin Zhiyu quickened his movements. Since the ruins left no clues, he could only clean out each cave one by one and thoroughly investigate to see what the conditions for getting out were.
After cleaning up five caves, Qin Zhiyu found that there were ponds in most of the caves.
The bottom of the pool does not lead directly to the endless deep water outside. The water slowly seeps out from the ground and gradually gathers into a pond.
And not all the hatched pebbles are snake-men aliens.
The snake people only account for one third of them, and the other two thirds are pure pythons, and another race that not only has snake tails but also webbed feet!
This discovery gave her a vague idea about the relic.
…
"I'm tired and my hands are sore. How come there are still three caves to go? I'm exhausted and can't do it anymore!" Jiang Mo never expected that he was so strong that he went through more than thirty caves in one breath, and there were still more than a dozen caves to go!
"Then you take a rest, I'll clean up a few more." Qin Zhiyu wiped the sweat from his head.
"Okay, I'll rest in one cave, and I'll wait for you at the next cave entrance!" Jiang Mo also knew that he really couldn't kill anymore. If he continued to consume his physical strength, he might get into a negative state, which would not be worth it, so he decided to take a rest.
"Well, you sit here and rest. Qin Lan, you stay with Jiang Mo." Qin Zhiyu gave her a small bench so that Qin Lan, who had worked very hard along the way, could also take a rest.
Qin Zhiyu walked into the cave. This cave was much smaller than the other two caves around it, and the light was not as good as the previous caves.
Will the pebbles in this cave be malnourished or underdeveloped when they hatch?
Only a faint light leaked from the cave entrance, allowing people to barely see things in the cave.
After thinking about it, Qin Zhiyu took out a torch, lit it and stuck it aside. The torch would not cause a fire, and it would be brighter with a torch.
When Qin Zhiyu turned around, he was horrified! There was a complete corpse of a snake-man hanging high above the cave, face down, staring at Qin Zhiyu with a ferocious look.
The snake-man alien race was abnormally grayish-white all over, and even their scales were dull and covered below the waistline.
This snake man was actually pierced through the scapula and then hung horizontally on the ceiling of the cave!
Its wide-open eyes revealed the despair and helplessness before death.
"You will die with your eyes open."
"What unfulfilled wish of yours is so unresigned that you are still so unwilling to die?"
Qin Zhiyu's fingers gently stroked the scales on the snake's belly, and her well-defined cheeks flickered in the firelight.
"These pebbles are your children, right? Or, should we call them—bastards?"
"Will you rest in peace only after you have completely cleared the pebbles from this cave?"
Qin Zhiyu used his long sword to cut through the pebbles that were hatching at his feet. Warm liquid splashed onto the snakeman's scales. He then said coldly, "Is it only by destroying this sinful place that your resentment will dissipate?"
At this time, looking at the loose scales on the snake man's waist and abdomen, the familiar relief under the firelight.
She'd never seen any of those webbed aliens before. It turned out this was where they'd spent so much time! No, their breeding ground.
This way, everything makes sense.
Qin Zhiyu saw webbed footprints near the ruins. The sacrifices were all performed by aliens with unclear facial features, but there were no small aliens or female aliens with distinguishable body shapes.
The mural here continues, and many aliens with different body shapes from adult male aliens are all thrown into the altar.
Year after year, day after day, the entire ethnic group has no offspring, no breeding "machines"!
Now they panicked and prayed to their gods again, but the gods only gave them a painting, and in the painting was a female snake person being hung up!
At this time, the female snake people still lived happily and carefree underwater. Under the leadership of the female leader, the tribe lived a peaceful but satisfying life.
This group of alien races facing genocide naturally thought that this was a gift from the gods and a guide for them!
The adult aliens were stronger and taller than the snake people. The snake people of the original tribe were no match for the invaders and were defeated in just a few days.
All the male snake people were killed, and the female snake people stayed to reproduce, which led to this astonishing scene appearing in countless caves.
Due to incomplete reproductive isolation, not every birth of a female snake person is of the invader race. Sometimes the baby is a snake person, and sometimes it is a python, the ancestor of the snake people.
The invaders were very dissatisfied with the result, so they dug open the belly of the pregnant snake person. The pregnant woman's instinct would cause the snake person to spontaneously supply all the nutrients in her body to the pebbles after being hurt.
Under the large-scale massacre, the female snake people watered it with their lives, leaving behind holes of "evil seeds".
Just because the invaders believed that the fetus was not completely contaminated with their scent, many of the children born were not of their race.
They are brought out from the mother's body to breed when they are pebbles, relying on the strong vitality of the alien race and because the pebbles have enough contact with them.
Anyone who is sufficiently imbued with their powerful aura will be able to become an excellent warrior of pure blood in their clan!
For the snake people, all of this is simply a desperate nightmare. They have witnessed countless innocent people being slaughtered, and they have to pretend to be submissive and serve their enemies!
Qin Zhiyu didn’t know how the snake people went through all this, nor did she know how heartbroken and helpless the snake people’s queen felt.
Through the mural reliefs, we can see the absolute power and unrivaled authority of the invaders. Under the strict system, the female snake people are completely helpless.
The anger, pain, sorrow and helplessness are so intense that it is no exaggeration to say that one cannot wait to eat their flesh and drink their blood!
Then, the style of the mural suddenly changed!
The invaders, who were originally focused on breeding offspring, stopped focusing on the female snake people all day long after they had enough offspring. Instead, they began to pay attention to other things.
The female snake leader understood that this was a great opportunity for them to take revenge!
Taking advantage of the invaders leading the way, every time she hung out with her, she would fan the flames and deliberately induce them to invade other tribes to show her own strength.
As expected, the invader had other ideas and was unwilling to stay underwater all day.
They miss the days when they conquered the world. Now they have enough outstanding younger generations, so there is no reason to hesitate.
All the alien races they targeted were killed by them, and the female snake man also achieved her goal.
Watching the number of invaders in the snake people decrease day by day, their leader is still indulging in the pleasure of bullying other tribes.
The female snake knew that she only needed an opportunity, an opportunity to annihilate them all.
She finally waited for this day!
Under the guidance of the gods, the leader of the invaders saw a fragile yet rich race that he had never seen before, the human race!
The distant yet charming temptation appeared in the mind and ears of the leader of the invaders from time to time. He felt that it was time to set off!
But I didn't expect that no one would come back after this trip.
The female leader of the snake people made all kinds of plans, but she still didn't expect that after the invaders left, the entire snake people race would be turned into a nest for nurturing pebbles!
She hates it!
She is powerless!
Even until her death, she could not escape the guilt towards her people and the grief for not being able to kill her enemies...
At this point, the mural came to an end, and Qin Zhiyu also fully understood the ins and outs of the bloody open and secret struggles between the two races, and the nailed queen hanging high on the cave ceiling.
"I haven't settled the score with you for bringing trouble upon myself. Now I want to fulfill your wish. What can you give me in return?" Qin Zhiyu said with a forced smile.
"Boss, you haven't finished solving it yet. Do you need my help?" Jiang Mo looked at Qin Zhiyu who had been in there for a long time and felt a little worried. To be on the safe side, he still asked.
"Come in." Qin Zhiyu had no intention of hiding the struggle between the two alien races from Jiang Mo. The world of natural disasters is cruel, so it's better to understand it early and adapt to it early.
"Boss, your speed is not good enough. Is it because I'm not with you? Hehehe." Jiang Mo came in with a playful smile on his face.
Qin Zhiyu said nothing, waiting for Jiang Mo to react.
"Oh my, what is this?! A living one! No, a dead alien?! The third race!" Jiang Mo was shocked by the snake man hanging straight above his head!
This snake tail, this waist, this scapula, and this snake face!
Oh my God, not to mention that this snake man is even more terrifying than the previous lizard man and the human-armed kangaroo at home!
"The fourth one is on the wall, take a good look." Qin Zhiyu said softly.
"Okay, let me see. Such a large wall is covered with murals. No wonder you have been delayed for so long." Jiang Mo said confidently.
Qin Zhiyu stared at the female snake leader expressionlessly for a moment, then took her body down from the cave.
The iron chain had rusted into the bones, and the bones and chains became one. After death, they turned into shackles, tightly binding the snake man.
I will cremate your body in this cave. You will just have to wait and see what happens next.
Qin Zhiyu waited for Jiang Mo to finish looking at the murals, and then worked with her to burn down this cave full of blood, tears and sin.
"Boss, I feel so bad! I want to kill all these cubs! They carry the sinful blood of their fathers, suck the flesh and blood of their mothers, and even attack humans when they grow up." Jiang Mo gritted his teeth with anger, "They don't deserve to live in this world!"
"After cleaning up this place, we will probably find a way to break the cave." Qin Zhiyu's eyes flashed as he looked at the blazing flames in the cave.
"We must act separately and make sure that these evil aliens can never continue to survive in this world. They don't deserve it!" Jiang Mo's voice drifted to Qin Zhiyu's ears with the wind, and the word "unworthy" echoed in the cave.
You also feel unworthy, right?
Then let us take your place and finish everything you haven’t completed!
Qin Zhiyu turned and left the fire scene. With a wave of his sword, the lives of the pebble cubs were harvested one after another.
She could understand why the Snake Queen, the leader of their race, made such a choice.
These hatched alien races, even the snake people, are born violent, bloodthirsty, aggressive, and unwilling to be lonely.
The sinful blood has flowed through every capillary of Pebble. Her people cannot be saved and will disappear from this world forever.
