Chapter 514: Finding an Intelligent Creature
The three of them came to the ancient tall tower.
This lifeless and ghostly place had collapsed halfway, and various blurry Buddha statues looked down at them grimly.
Many snake people were lying inside to rest. When they saw the three "fake snake people" coming, they all showed vigilant expressions.
"I'll do it." said Duke Magmet.
"Hiss, hiss, hiss!" The power armor imitated the loud roar of the snake man and drove these guys away.
Lu Yuan soon discovered that the snake man with a blind left eye was also running away with them. Although this guy was also pale and thin, his personal attributes were much stronger than the other snake men.
He took out a rattan whip and swung it, accurately hitting the one-eyed snake man's neck.
[Immortal Binding Rope: Made from the vines of the Tree of Life.]
[Master craftsman Lu Yuan carefully made a rope to capture extraordinary creatures. Although it was just a casual creation, he shamelessly called it the "Immortal Binding Rope."]
[Ability: Seal, the extraordinary ability to lock up captured objects. (Excellent Grade, Extraordinary Item)]
There is no better rope, so just make do with this one.
When the one-eyed snake man found himself captured, he was shocked and kept struggling, even making attacking movements with his teeth bared.
There was a slight "click" sound.
The sharp teeth hit the power armor and fell to the ground, spinning.
"Oh, you're pretty arrogant!"
Lu Yuan had never seen such a weak demon before, and he felt inexplicably sad.
Is [Demon] really a failure as a creative phenomenon? Judging from its current performance, it may be true.
I didn't spoil it and dragged it to a deserted corner.
"I'll feed it something, you guys step back."
The old cat was fine, but Duke Magmite of the Blue Roc civilization was a little worried: "What if it has spatial abilities and suddenly escapes? How can we find this guy?"
The one-eyed snake man kept struggling and roaring.
"I don't know if this guy is acting, or if his divine attributes have been greatly reduced, so he has only this IQ." Lu Yuan lowered his body and pinched the other's neck, "Old cat, lock it first."
"Relax, Lord Cat has been entangled with the Devil for who knows how long." The old cat said, "Even if it hides in another dimension, it can't escape."
The old cat's "adsorption" ability may sound useless, but it is quite useful at this moment. As long as it is locked, there is no need to worry about it running into the human city.
Lu Yuan took out a bottle of potion containing the effective elements of the mandrake fruit. He pinched the one-eyed snake man's neck and poured the potion into its mouth.
Soon, the one-eyed snake man calmed down.
"Its divine attributes have risen!"
As a price, its body is rapidly aging at a speed visible to the naked eye. The originally shiny scales have become dull in just half an hour, and the wrinkles at the corners of its eyes are gradually increasing.
It was as if decades had passed in the blink of an eye.
This mandragora fruit is really like something from the other side. It has serious side effects, but it is the only thing that can fight against the monster's mental control.
After the blind snake man ate the mandrake fruit, his one eye gradually began to shine with the light of wisdom.
When it saw Lu Yuan and the others, it was frightened and tried to escape in panic, but was forcibly pulled back by the rope.
"Who are you?"
"How did you find me?!" The one-eyed snake man was terrified and lowered his voice.
Lu Yuan was also confused by this guy's roar. What kind of acting skills is this? You asked us to come here, and now you are pretending not to know us?
He just clenched the rope tightly, thinking about what to say.
But after the old snake man roared for a while, he slowly became stunned.
Because in the snake man's palace, the cold and gloomy aura began to spread, accompanied by a shocking silence.
That is the power that comes from the ghost.
The surroundings began to darken, as if the sunlight in the air was absorbed by a mysterious force.
"Hold your breath and crawl down. Don't move." The one-eyed snake man whispered.
Everyone immediately held their breath and squatted on the ground.
Lu Yuan cursed in his heart: It's obviously you who should take the blame! But he had no choice but to do it.
Now he had to attract the ghost's attention... and that would cost him a lot of money. Besides, his human body might die, which was quite troublesome.
Almost all the snake people made the same movement, trembling on the ground, as if welcoming their king.
[Ghost] is actually not afraid of the sun. If you think that the sunlight makes it retreat back to the palace, you are very wrong!
After a long while, the cold and gloomy aura slowly disappeared.
"It didn't come out, don't worry."
The old snake man calmed down, and his one eye quietly looked at the three power armors.
And Lu Yuan was also looking at the other person.
[Unknown stranger], this line of words appeared in the eyes of the pioneer.
[Abilities: Mental Thrust, Memory Library, Speech Translation, Identification Ability, Supernatural Fire]
【Shape:9.2】
[Air: 10.5]
[God: 4.5]
[Extraordinary Level: Level 1]
"What do you mean?" Lu Yuan frowned, a little puzzled, "It's not a [demon], but an alien? This guy has quite a lot of abilities."
"Do aliens... have the ability to live to this day and age?"
The ability of the devil must include the ability to possess another body and be reborn.
This strange person does not have the ability to possess another person's body.
Plus, this guy's personal strength doesn't seem that strong...
Both his personal attributes and extraordinary levels were mediocre.
"But we can't rule out the possibility that the Devil is in disguise, deliberately making it impossible for me to see his ability to 'reborn'."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Don't trust it easily for now."
"Mr. Yi Ren, you asked us to help you regain consciousness, but now why are you pretending not to know us?" Lu Yuan asked straight to the point, "No matter what, you have to tell us some information. This is your territory."
The old cat and Duke Magmet who was following behind him tensed up.
The old snake man looked confused and kept scratching the scales on the side of his forehead.
After scratching his head for a long time, he finally recovered from his confused state: "I remember now! You are still alive, it's incredible!"
This language is very strange. It seems to act directly on people's souls, making people inexplicably understand it.
"How did you survive? Didn't the [ghost] escape from the palace last night? Did it attack you?"
"I also saw the scene of a hydrogen bomb explosion, so I gritted my teeth and drew something on the wall."
"I didn't expect you guys to be alive, haha... Actually I didn't expect much!" said the old snake man, "The amnesia just now is normal. I hid here with the help of the monster mechanism and I often lose my memory. Don't mind it."
Lu Yuan was speechless.
"You are looking for us, so you must have some intelligence, right?"
The snake man with one eye blind collapsed to the ground and said in a hoarse voice: "Young civilization of the new era, remove the rope from my neck, then we can cooperate again."
"Your rope is like a dog leash. It's disrespectful to the seniors."
"Old man, it's a good thing that I have stayed here for so many years and still maintained my sanity. It's not easy."
"Who are you? Tell me your information first." Lu Yuan was very alert.
"Are you doubting my identity? Ahem, junior, you are very careful."
"Listen carefully. I was born in a great... civilization... I forgot what it was, but it was a great civilization."
The one-eyed snake man shook his head and said, "Although I look similar to the snake people around me, we are actually not of the same race. I am a king snake, and they are black vipers. We are different."
"I am an...archaeologist. I discovered this dangerous place by accident and sneaked in."
"This must be a masterpiece left behind by some top civilization, with a rich legacy!"
"But I got tricked by mistake... Oh, that's life... What era is it now?"
Lu Yuan frowned slightly. There were too many loopholes in this statement.
How many years can you live after eating the mandrake fruit? "How can a normal creature live that long? What about your people?"
"That's a long question." The old snake man laughed. "Get me some spring water from the pond, and I'll tell you."
His skinny, blue finger pointed in the direction of the snakeman's palace.
"The water in that pool has many mysteries. Resist the temptation and don't drink it carelessly. Be careful."
The pool behind the high wall has an extremely strong idealistic radiation background, and the images detected by satellite are all mosaics.
"You, a fellow of unknown origin, dare to make demands?" The old cat snorted, "You didn't come out to help last night, but now that we've survived, you come out to give us orders. Who do you think you are?"
"What can I do? That's a ghost. It can kill us all with one strike." The blind snake man said helplessly, "The monster controls our minds and makes us eat the mandrake fruit at regular times and in fixed quantities, but we can't eat too much."
“My mental state is always on the verge of confusion.”
"There are only a few moments when I can break free of that state and regain consciousness."
"Besides, if I'm too awake, won't the ghost notice me and kill me? I'm not a demon, and I can't be reborn after I die! So I've almost forgotten what happened last night."
Lu Yuan remained silent, thinking about the loopholes - there were so many of them that he didn't know how to complain about them.
The old snake man said in a low voice: "This damn place is too dangerous. If you want to be a dragon, you have to coil up, and if you want to be a tiger, you have to lie down. I don't have the ability to help you, do you understand? You should get the spring water first. It will be of great use to me."
"Don't be nervous, I'm not a demon. By the way, what is your combat power? What level of civilization? How did you get in?"
This guy acted like a familiar person and kept talking more and more nonsense.
He might not have communicated with normal life for a long time and couldn't wait to speak.
Lu Yuan took a deep breath and asked his two companions to stay calm.
"Anyway, that pool needs to be investigated... I'll climb over the wall to take a look, don't worry."
