Chapter 708: Money Whip
Lu Yao sent Isabel to receive the [Plague Ghost].
The apostles suddenly arrived, and the plague demons seemed panicked, but they quickly expressed obedience and submission.
There are a total of 33 plague ghosts here, the highest level one is Zhihuan at LV77, and it is also the oldest plague ghost alive here.
It told Isabel: "We, the thirty-three Luofu plague ghosts, are appointed as Taoist soldiers by Lord Plague Lord. We are practicing in Luofu Cave and waiting for his order."
"Among the Taoist soldiers, we are not good at fighting and are prone to disasters and epidemics, so Lord Plague King ordered us to retreat from the world. When there are wars and natural disasters in troubled times, and epidemics are rampant, we will be ordered to go out of the mountains, collect the epidemic, and treat the world. That's why we were given the surname Zhi..."
According to these plague ghosts, "Plague Lord" is another title of Zhao Gongming, who can gain power by spreading plague.
But Zhao Gongming was more focused on collecting plagues, and was very restrained. As a result, he only kept thirty-three plague ghosts, which should have been able to bring great help to him, and all of them were controlled in Luofu Cave.
The plague ghost Zhi Huan bowed and said, "Excuse me, Master, are you a descendant of the Lord of Plague?"
"no."
Isabel said: "I am the apostle of God Yao, and I have nothing to do with the Lord of Plague. Where is your god?"
"I don't know."
Zhi Huan smiled bitterly, "Luofu plague ghosts live in seclusion. They usually rest in Luofu Cave for hundreds or thousands of years. The two immortal masters under the Lord of Plague in the past, Immortal Master Chen, the Envoy of Fortune, and Immortal Master Yao, the Immortal Official of Profit, would occasionally visit them and respond to people's worship and prayers in front of the altar."
Although this is Zhao Gongming's starting point and practice place, He seldom returns here.
It is mostly managed by two gods, Chen Jiugong and Yao Shaosi.
According to the observation of Zhihuan and his fellow plague ghosts over the years, the Plague King once wanted to transform this departure point, but because the transformation was difficult, he even wanted to destroy it directly. However, it was finally preserved.
"I am a humble person, so I don't know why this happened... I only know that after King Wu defeated King Zhou, Penglai was defeated and Kunlun won. Lord Plague King was forced to go to Heaven and serve as the God of Wealth. Perhaps this made Lord unhappy."
Lu Yao looked towards the altar in the center.
He clicked the mouse and obtained the relevant data.
…
【Luofu Cave】: A mythical wonder. The Taoist temple and the place where the sailor Zhao Gongming set sail.
HP: 1/2200000 [Myth]
【Nurturing the Plague Ghost】
Able to see through plague ghosts, cultivate and awaken their wisdom, and transform them into diseased bodies.
【Tomb Guardian Ghost】
Able to detain and recruit ghosts and turn them into ghost soldiers.
[Altar] (Open) Chanting the holder's prayer will allow the prayer to be sent to the altar through the altar.
Required for use: Prayer (Ranked in the Xuantan, the golden wheel is as good as it can be, when the black tiger roars, all the demons in the world are frightened...) ...
Zhao Gongming's starting point and Taiyi Zhenren's place are both mythological wonders and belong to the same level.
It’s just that Taiyi Zhenren transformed the Jinguan Cave into a huge factory integrating imitation, research and development, and manufacturing; Zhao Gongming’s Luofu Cave is aimed at ghosts, especially plague ghosts, and can directly turn ghosts into soldiers, specializing in the undead direction.
The plague ghosts' various stories to Isabel also made Lu Yao understand why Zhao Gongming wanted to abandon Luofu Cave.
When Zhao Gongming developed Luofu Cave, he was not yet the God of Wealth.
In addition to the title "Plague Lord", his other title was "Head of the Five Direct Qi in the Tomb" - that is, he was in charge of the tomb. Therefore, Zhao Gongming debuted as the Ghost King and Plague God in his early days, and the secular worship and prayers to him also started from that stage.
During the battle between Kunlun and Penglai when King Wu defeated King Zhou, Zhao Gongming became famous in one battle. He killed Jiang Ziya, captured Huanglong Zhenren, and injured Guangchengzi, Chijingzi, Daoxing Tianzun, Yuding Zhenren, Lingbao Dafashi, etc.
According to legend and records in the committee database, Zhao Gongming was assassinated by the [Seven Arrows Book], which resulted in his body being destroyed. He was then deified and left Penglai.
Then He became the God of Wealth and the Black Tiger Xuantan Zhenjun.
Zhao Gongming also served in the newly established pantheon [Heaven].
From the God of Plague and the King of Ghosts in the past to the God of Wealth and the True Lord, the title of the god has changed. This departure point can no longer meet Zhao Gongming's needs, so it is not difficult to understand why he wants to transform it or even build a new one.
Lu Yao returned his gaze to the flying stick hovering above the altar.
The lucky rat is holding and throwing the flying stick.
However, Feigun was extremely tenacious and kept struggling. I couldn't beat him, but I just wouldn't give in.
Finally, after being thrown, smashed and bitten by the Fortune Rat, it finally surrendered.
["Sui Zhu He Bi" discovered a unique object: a money-making whip. ]
["Sui Zhu and He Bi" conquered the "Wealth Whip". ]
Lu Yao was a little surprised. He thought it was a prop, but it turned out to be a special object.
It is said that the weapon in Zhao Gongming's hand is a magic whip, and it turns out to be a living weapon?
Lu Yao examined the whip with great interest.
Its appearance is somewhat like a small metal pagoda, with bamboo-like nodes on it and it is golden all over.
…
[Money Whip LV99]: A peculiar object of unknown origin, keen on collecting all kinds of valuable treasures.
【Leave a bribe of LV88】
The Money Whip can release golden light at close range. When hit by the golden light, a random item carried by the target will be dropped or flew out immediately. If there is no item, a random number of Fire of Faith or World Stone will be dropped. If there is no drop, the [Instant Death] effect will be triggered.
【Eyes open when seeing money】
If the opponent's props and fire of faith are knocked down, the Money Whip will collect them first, and then release the golden light again, at which time it will be out of control.
…
Lu Yao looked at him strangely.
This biological weapon is truly unique.
A whip can knock down other people's equipment and make them explode with gold coins on the spot... This ability is simply a magical skill of robbing and looting, and fighting to support the war.
Isn't this how the God of Wealth got his wealth? In addition, the additional feature of [Leave Money for Passage] is also very overbearing.
…
[Instant Death]: When the effect is triggered, the target's health will be reduced to zero.
…
Although this ability is ineffective against winged people or undead, it is a magical tool for dealing with large numbers of monsters and interrogating and confiscating their property.
Lu Yao has decided that Jimmy the Snowman will use the whip to whip the captured gods! You say it is not strong? These two abilities are indeed overbearing.
But if you say it's strong, the [Eyes Open to Money] trait will make the whip go out of control and pick up money...
This can be considered a minor flaw of this weapon.
Lu Yao put away the [Money-Making Whip].
At this time, Isabel also completed her questioning of the plague ghosts.
She reported, "My lord, the Lord of Plague has fallen. There used to be statues of gods at the altar, the four gods of Attracting Treasures, Nazhen Tianzun, Attracting Wealth Envoy, and Profit Immortal Official, who together guarded the central god, namely the Lord of Plague and later the God of Wealth. Now the statues have collapsed for many years."
"According to the memories and what the plague ghosts saw, after entering the Heavenly Palace, the God of Wealth was still active for a long time, but he rarely came back here and spent most of his time in the Heavenly Palace. One day, the statue collapsed. It is difficult to judge the speed of time here, so they are not sure what year it happened."
Okay.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Anyway, I have obtained the [Plague Ghost] and the [Money-Making Whip], which is already a great harvest.
Lu Yao first took Luofu Cave into his possession, and then tried to look towards the headquarters of the Yao clan's world.
The ability of [Nurturing the Plague Ghosts] can see through the plague ghosts, which means that this special life can now be seen.
He actually saw a plague ghost at the edge of Yao City. The level of the plague ghost was only Lv1, and its health bar was slowly decreasing. Soon it died on its own. In the area where the plague ghost appeared, there were some rabbit corpses with flies flying over them.
Lu Yao opened the backstage and saw a description that was not there before.
[The rule was successfully triggered: the plague ghost was born. ]
【The plague ghost becomes weak.】
【The plague ghost disappeared.】
Lu Yao clicked to view the relevant details and found that the duration of the plague ghost's appearance was related to many conditions, such as the wind, heavy rain, drought, and whether there was life that could be transmitted. If there were a large number of corpses piled up or poisoned, the plague ghost would be born, but it would also die naturally.
Generally speaking, under good sanitary conditions, it is difficult for plague ghosts to be born in the city. They almost always wander around outside the city and then disappear.
So far, there have been a total of six plague outbreaks in the Yao clan's cities, but they have all been controlled with targeted treatment in each city and have not spread or expanded.
Medicine and Potions became the invisible guardians of civilization.
…
Lu Yao was checking records related to the plague when his work phone suddenly rang.
It’s Song Shiyi.
He asked Isabel to come out and answer the phone, and he put on the Bluetooth headset.
The call is connected.
Song Shiyi's voice sounded a little tired: "Ms. Mary, I have an important message for you. I was planning to call you this afternoon, but ended up having a meeting until now."
Lu Yao looked at the time.
It's already ten fifty at night.
The committee has been working a bit overtime lately.
Song Shiyi said: "There is a big problem with the Feathered People. A large-scale black tide has erupted in some parts of the Leap Zone. This black tide covers a wide area and is closely related to the [Virtual Mirror]. "
"If you are still in the leap zone, please be careful. The Kuroshio radiation range is very large, and there are repeated outbreaks in the same area. It may be safer to move to the tree-like civilization or the boundary zone."
Lu Yao thought to himself that this was the case.
Mr. Smile from Utopia has already reminded us that it seems wise to move ahead of time to prevent natural disasters.
"Ms. Mary, I'm on my way to the garage. Can you come to the previous parking lot? I applied for a [Luban Counter]. With this, you can better judge the undercurrent. This is an important equipment for the committee. I had to wait in line to apply for an extra one."
"This is also a device independently developed by our committee. It is currently only for internal use, and each machine has been registered."
Lu Yao nodded to Isabel.
The young apostle said, “I’ll be there soon.”
In return, Lu Yao also instructed Isabel to share the battle in hell with Song Shiyi, and asked her to be careful of the demons roaming around and appearing.
"Got it. Please be safe. These are turbulent times. Everyone please be careful."
Not long after, Isabel came back with the [Lu Ban Counter].
This prop looks like a small calculator, the size of a palm, with a thick black plastic shell that feels heavy in the hand.
There are four buttons on the counter. The two large buttons on the outermost left and right are [Menu] and [Volume], and the two small round buttons in the middle are [Switch] and [Signal].
At this point it is already turned on.
The black and white screen displays [0/Shift].
Song Shiyi talked about its usage.
"You just need to turn it on and off, and the signal will be displayed. If the number is between 0 and 2, it is normal, but if it exceeds 10, you should be careful, because it means that the degree of distortion in the nearby space is high, and the interference and overlap are around 10. We used this machine to track the distorted double slit before, and it is very accurate."
"If it reaches 30 shifts, it reaches the standard of dark tide, which means that the distortion of the nearby space has reached a very high level, and the probability of dark tide is 50%."
"If it reaches 50, the probability of a dark tide is 99%, and above 70 it is 99.99%... In addition to the dark tide, it can also be used to detect and find some space gaps with stronger reactions. But for now, you should still use this to guard against the dark tide. Please be careful. Once the dark tide breaks out, even the Lord God will find it difficult to contain it."
Lu Yao expressed his gratitude to him.
He put the [Lu Ban Counter] into the prop bar, then switched the perspective and returned to the headquarters of the Yao clan world.
Before clicking on it, Lu Yao noticed that there was an extra row of numbers in the upper right corner.
【Luban Counter: 2.07】
This is conveniently displayed automatically.
Safety.
Lu Yao felt relieved.
He began to consider promoting new men of God.
