Chapter 433: Feathered Man's Curse
The scroll of spell construction unfolds on the ground.
On one side is the [Skull of the Old God], and on the other side are three slowly emerging pictures.
The remaining remains of the old gods are under the ice, among the rocks, and at the bottom of a swamp.
Noland led his group of mages and quickly dug out the wreckage. After a simple cleanup, they presented it to Lu Yao.
The skeleton had turned into fossils, and the shape was somewhat strange: a twisted skeletal arm, a torso connected to the thorax, and a strong complete leg bone.
The remains were covered in some kind of dense fibers, like hair growing on bones.
Unlike skulls and dreams, [Old God Arms], [Old God Ribs], and [Old God Legs] do not have special abilities.
The descriptions are all the same: the unidentified remains of an old god.
[Curse of True Sight] also failed to obtain any additional information and still could not confirm the identity of this old god.
The wise insect was a little surprised when he saw it: "This... this is a curse left by a winged person."
Lu Yao asked it to explain clearly.
"My Lord God, there is a curse left on the remains of the old god. Only the Curse Clan and the Curse Insects can recognize it immediately."
The red panda looked nervous. "Winged people are the name used by the Curse Clan. They are powerful beings after the Curse Clan has completed its transformation. They not only have superb wisdom, but also have terrifying power far beyond that of ordinary Curse Clan. Only the Winged People can use and display the Curse Order, making it impossible for the Curse Clan and the Curse Insects to disobey."
As described by the wise insect.
There is a clear class division within the cursed insects.
The most common and most numerous are the insects without intelligence. Even if this group is powerful, they still have the lowest status in the tribe. They either become beasts and monsters, or can only serve as soldiers.
The Curse Clan has wisdom, and because they can control their instincts and wildness, they can do things far beyond the Curse Bug stage. This class controls a large number of beastly Curse Bugs, and the difference between the two is like that between humans and gorillas.
The winged people rule over the curse tribe.
They completely transformed from cursed insects into another form. Although different winged people have different appearances, they all have feather wings, which are their physical characteristics.
Each winged person has a unique spell, which is a direct expression of their privileges.
Once the curse is marked, it represents the will of the Feathered Man. If the surrounding cursed tribes and cursed insects violate the curse, they will be noticed by the Feathered Man and then executed by him.
It's like some kind of solemn law and royal authority. Within the radiation area of the Feathered Man's curse, the Curse Clan and the Curse Insects must not disobey.
"Although I have never seen a winged person, I was already in the abyss when I gained wisdom...but the fear and memory of winged people are engraved in my body. Every cursed person and cursed insect knows it by nature."
The wise insect identified the corpse and said, "The order given by the curse is--"
"'Thou shalt not destroy.'"
Lu Yao frowned when he heard this.
The situation seems to be getting more and more complicated.
This nameless old god is actually related to the winged man at the top of the Curse Clan’s pyramid, and his identity is even more difficult to guess.
You have to go into the dream and take a look.
…
Lu Yao looked ahead.
Two meters in front of him was a thick pink fog floating. It seemed like some kind of special phenomenon, with bright lights flashing from time to time inside the fog.
Lu Yao stared at [The Remnant Dreams of the Old Gods], but was unable to obtain more information, nor did he trigger any other options or mechanisms.
It looked like a dream.
Lu Yao closed his eyes, switched the split screen, returned to the cabin, and double-clicked on the computer screen.
Simulator display.
[Sorry, you cannot enter the Old God's Dream in this way. ]
In other words, in order to enter the dream, one must come into actual contact with the virtual universe.
Lu Yao raised his hand and carefully touched the fog.
[Are you sure you want to enter the Old God's Dream? ]
[Once you enter, many props will be unusable, and the threat of death is real, so please be prepared before entering. ]
Lu Yao walked into the fog.
Stepping inside, he found himself in a strange environment. This place was different from the outside world, it was like a reflection in the water, slowly changing and distorting.
Lu Yao noticed that there were graves all around and zombies were wandering aimlessly.
Is this... the first level of the abyss? A voice came from the left rear.
"I hope today will have a good result. It's a pity that you can't go. I will try my best to remember the map over there and summarize it with you when I come back. Wish me good luck, cartographer."
"Those bugs are dangerous, I don't think this is a good idea."
It sounds like someone talking to himself.
Lu Yao turned his head to look.
On the left stood a strange-looking backpacker.
He has only one arm and one leg, and walks by hopping lightly.
The man's face was blurry and only a pair of dazed eyes could be seen. He wore a wide-brimmed straw hat and carried a tattered backpack.
The backpacker has one hand and one foot, but he is very flexible. He can complete any changes and adjustments, and his joints are as soft as dough. This seemingly unbalanced physiological structure shows a light and agile jumping posture.
He was carrying a small white mouse, which was sniffing around on the ground and moving very quickly.
The strange thing is that the backpacker calls the little white mouse a cartographer. Although the man and the mouse have different tones, they have exactly the same voice.
Lu Yao followed them and walked forward.
Neither humans nor mice noticed his presence at all.
Lu Yao made a preliminary guess in his mind.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Judging from the wreckage, the old god should be this backpacker.
In the remnant dream of the old gods, the Curse of True Sight could not identify the people and rats here, as if they did not exist at all.
The props really didn't work.
Fortunately, the Yellow Turban Warrior was not affected.
As the cartographer walked further and further into the abyss, his pace became slower and slower.
"Do you really want to go to the other side? You will be alone and helpless there." The little white mouse was very worried.
"Hasn't it been decided before we came here?" The old god said, "If we can't cross that hole and enter the other side of the world, we won't be able to be sure of everything. A long time ago, I always wanted to go there, record what I saw and heard over there, and tell those who came after me."
The mouse said, "Are you sure? That's the world of insects..."
"No, it's not the world of insects. That's the other side of this world. Cartographer, the void in our eyes is actually the soil where they live, and the virtual worlds we live in are just expanding holes in their eyes..."
The old god waved his arms and said excitedly: "The so-called cursed insects are just a general term for a group of life forms that live on the other side of the world. They are actually no different from us. In our eyes, they are insects, but in the eyes of the cursed people, we are also moving disasters."
"It's like the most basic land and ocean. Together they form a basic world. When we stand on land and see fish fins sticking out of the sea, we think they are monsters. But only when we enter the sea can we see their true appearance and understand their environment."
"Both of us tried to enter the other's world and eliminate the so-called disaster, which led to the current situation of endless war between the cursed insects and various divine beings."
"This can be stopped, as long as there is a god who can truly complete the journey inside and outside the virtual universe, draw a complete map, and officially announce this matter to the public!"
The old god announced: "Ignorance is the greatest danger. We must take this step. The tombs here are full of pioneers who have gone forward one after another. I am not alone."
"Forget it. Most of the guys who died here were killed while hunting cursed insects. What kind of pioneers are they? They are nothing but adventurous gamblers." The little white mouse sneered.
At this moment, sounds like rocks breaking were heard from all directions.
Huge figures appeared in the darkness. They had different shapes, but there were about thirty of them in number. They moved silently and quickly towards the old gods.
What was strange was that these cursed insects, which looked like monsters, rushed towards Lu Yao when they got close.
Although Lu Yao was confused, he was not afraid.
In the abyss, the Yellow Turban Warrior Unit-01 is in its complete form, LV199, with a health bar of 800,000, a damage of nearly 1,000, an iron wall, and built-in [Advanced Immunity].
The opponents are just a group of bugs whose level is less than 100.
Lu Yao clenched his fists and walked towards the swarm of insects.
…
After smashing and blasting each cursed insect to pieces, Lu Yao still felt a little unsatisfied. The feeling of punching into flesh was really comfortable, completely different from the feeling of striking remotely on a computer.
Since his panel is strong enough, he only needs to beat whoever he catches.
Unfortunately, the fierce battle only lasted for more than half an hour, and the cursed insects suddenly disappeared.
Lu Yao guessed that this should correspond to the personal experience of the old god. Maybe the head and tail worms were stuck at this level and could not withstand the attack of the curse worms.
A ray of light appeared in the darkness in the distance.
A white figure slowly flew out from inside. It was shaped like a stream of light, but it had six feather wings on its body. There were clusters of blue spiral light patterns on the wings, and looking directly at them for a long time would make you feel dizzy.
At this time, the old god suddenly became exhausted. He said, "Amer, is this your way of hospitality? Are you going to kill me?"
The voice of the person in the light covered with feathers seemed to be far away and near.
“Come on…come on.”
The entire dream scene suddenly froze.
What's even more strange is that the person in the light can still move. It slowly turns around and faces Lu Yao.
"Who are you?"
