Chapter 46 The Beautiful Love Story of the Snake and the Golem (Updated Successfully!!!)
Lysa jumped away and signaled to Olenna with her eyes.
Olenna didn't need Lysa's gaze at all, she had been paying attention all the time, and when she saw that the situation was not right, she rushed forward and hugged Rand, who was still pretending to be cool, and carried Rand away from the giant snake, which had stopped twisting its body but was still rushing forward due to inertia.
Lysa flew lightly across the sky and landed on the branch of a tree, holding the emerald longbow in her hand.
She had not personally experienced Rand's blessing,2 and was not sure whether this power, which Rand said was a gift from the Mother Goddess, would be effective quickly against such a huge snake.
But it seems to be working well so far.
The ability that Rand called the desire to share was much stronger than Lysa had imagined. After a brief stagnation, the giant snake began to reverse and twist its body, knocking down a large number of trees in the forest.
At least at this moment, the giant snake, burning with desire, had no time to care about the four people watching on the side.
Ellie glanced at Rand. She had experienced this power herself before, but she didn't expect that this "cool" ability could be effective against such a huge monster.
Now she began to believe in Rand's identity as the Messenger of God. At least he should have really received the blessing of this Dark Goddess of Fertility.
Otherwise, simply stimulating desire should not be so quick and powerful.
The giant snake was still writhing, but it could not find anything that could quench its thirst in a short period of time. Compared with its huge body, everything in this forest was too small.
Except, except the Iron Golem.
Rand looked at the giant snake that noticed the Iron Golem, scratched his face, and asked Ellie beside him: "Does the Iron Golem have thoughts?"
Ellie asked in confusion, "Of course not, why are you asking?"
Rand continued to scratch his face. He always felt a little sorry for the Iron Golem.
It was unknown how much sanity the giant snake still had when it saw the huge steel golem, and its swimming speed increased significantly. At this time, the effect of the interference gem gradually disappeared.
The Iron Golem's energy was restarted, but now there was a giant snake wrapped around its body, but since it had no mind, it might not be very shocked.
Rand watched for a while and felt that the two-story-high steel golem jumping up and down there must be programmed in this way.
This should be an effective way for humanoid constructs to deal with snake-like creatures.
The reason why the Iron Golem no longer paid attention to the four-man group here was obviously because the snake-like monster was more threatening.
Well, it all makes sense, very reasonable.
Rand continued to watch the show with the three people.
Because the giant snake is very large, and the Black Goat Mother's thirst will enhance physical fitness in all aspects, the giant snake with flesh and blood entangled the golem with a body of steel, and no matter how the golem jumped up and down or rolled on the ground, it could not get rid of it for a while.
It seems that jumping up and down is not very effective against snake-like creatures. Rand took notes carefully.
While asking: "What do you do if you encounter a snake?"
Ellie pointed at the giant snake wrapped around the body of the Iron Golem: "Is it this big?"
Rand shook his head and compared his own height: "An average person is this tall."
"magic."
"sword."
"Arrows."
Well, it is of no reference value. The doctrine on life compiled by Rand before was classified by him as "Notes and Supplements on the First Article of the Doctrine of the Mother Goddess".
As for the annotations and supplementary explanations of the second doctrine, Rand intends to write some self-rescue methods when facing harsh environments, hoping that his believers can use it as a reference when they want to save themselves when facing harsh outdoor environments.
Anyway, it seems that jumping up and down will not be able to deal with the snake wrapped around the body.
I saw the Iron Golem rolling on the ground for a while, and finally it stopped moving, but the giant snake was still moving.
It kept wrapping around the body of the Iron Golem and twisting.
"Should we run away?" Rand asked. He felt that when the giant snake's thirst was over, it would come for revenge on them. They had to run away early to avoid being caught up. It would be bad if it followed them to its lair.
Ellie shook her head and explained, "If we don't use the interference gem to extinguish the energy core of the Iron Golem, then the Iron Golem will start the self-destruction program when it is about to be destroyed."
"What an evil setting." Rand complained.
Ellie was no longer surprised by the strange words that Rand would utter from time to time, and continued to speak to herself: "It looks like they will die together soon."
This is not bad. At least although the process is not quite the same as imagined, it seems that the Iron Golem will still be solved.
As the giant snake continued to demand and squeeze, the iron golem's seemingly indestructible magical metal shell began to crack.
But it doesn't seem to be deformed, and it seems to be a relatively rigid metal.
Finally, according to the Iron Golem's program, it reached the stage of self-destruction.
The golem stopped moving, and the energy center in its chest emitted a dazzling light.
Rand asked again: "Is this distance safe for us? Is the range of his self-destruction very large?"
After hearing this, Ellie's face changed drastically and she shouted loudly, "Go!"
Olenna was still leading Rand. Just as the four of them ran a distance, a loud earth-shaking noise was heard behind them.

Then came the tremendous heat.
Rand patted his burnt clothes and looked at the elf in confusion: "Why are your clothes intact?"
Lisa turned her head slightly to show that she couldn't answer.
As for the other three people, although the physical injuries were not serious and could only be considered minor burns at most, Ellie, Olenna and Rand's clothes were damaged to varying degrees.
At least if Rand glanced around, he could see some places that he couldn't see before, but because of the burns, they no longer looked white.
Olenna and Ellie didn't care much about Rand's wandering gaze. Although Rand said that he had never seen their photo crystals, they didn't believe it at all. They probably had seen it countless times in secret.
Since it has been seen before, it won’t hurt to be looked at a few more times now.
Wait until the residual heat passes. Fortunately, the season is still relatively humid and there is no sign of forest fires.
When they arrived in front of the golem, the giant snake had turned into charcoal, and the iron golem had completely lost its core. However, in addition to a lot of fragments flying out of the outer shell and cutting down many trees, many of them still remained in place.
There is no sign of melting by high temperatures.
Now the most dangerous obstacle standing in the way of the "Relic Development Plan" has finally disappeared, and the overall plan can be started.
Moreover, the letter Taner sent back recently also mentioned that the relationship between the Second Prince's faction and the Third Prince's faction has become increasingly tense. They probably don't have the time to come to this mountain valley to cause trouble for him, the illegal lord.
Looking at the almost undeformed magic steel, Rand looked at Ellie and said, "If we control the amount, can we complete the cutting of these metals?"
Ellie thought for a while and nodded: "It should be possible."
Rand was a little excited: "Come and try it!"
If these metals with almost perfect properties can be cut, they can be made into armor and large shields, which means that a legendary soldier unique to Rand is likely to be born.
Ellie carefully dipped a quill into some potion and then drew it on the surface of the iron golem.
After a while, Ellie took out a dagger and lightly scratched the area where the potion had been applied.
Nothing happened.
Ellie was startled and used a lot of strength. The fine steel that was originally invulnerable to damage by Lisa's arrows now had scratches.
Seeing this, Ellie breathed a sigh of relief.
Rand was breathing deeply, feeling excited. This meant that the legendary troops of the hideout could be put on the agenda.
