Chapter 175: Dragon Valley (7)
In the end, Su Yue of course opened the window.
After all, Cang Zhi was an adult Lord God, and he had the right to see this kind of thing. And more importantly, this wasn't an R18 game. The shocking images outside the window weren't just for the fun of it; they probably contained some kind of message.
Su Yue was still counting on Cang Zhi to complete the game with him. Cang Zhi was at least one-third of his brain, so he couldn't help but show it to him.
When Su Yue moved aside the hole in the window paper, the "feast" outside had already progressed to an exaggerated level. Under the flickering light of the fire, soft limbs intertwined into waves, and amid the crackling sound of burning firewood, lewd voices rose and fell. The scene was so erotic that even the most outrageous porn movie Su Yue had ever seen in the world would lose to it.
Cang Zhi stared at the scene in silence for a long time, then took a step back to indicate that he had finished watching.
Before Cang Zhi could speak, Su Yue asked, "Do you know what they are doing?"
The Lord God is pure and holy. Su Yue was afraid that he would say something that would leave him speechless, so he took the initiative to attack the god.
To his surprise, Cang Zhi said, "I know."
Su Yue could tell from Cangzhi's tone and expression that he really knew it and was not misunderstanding anything.
Su Yue suddenly realized that the Lord God was omniscient and omnipotent.
His ears suddenly felt a little hot.
Su Yue quickly coughed and changed the subject: "So what do you think this means?"
"Death and sex are indeed the main themes of the ritual, but putting these two elements together is very strange." Cang Zhi said, "Usually, according to humans... our human nature, we would not perform such a ritual."
He suddenly added this sentence because he remembered that Zhao Shuo was also in the room. Although Zhao Shuo was asleep now, there was no guarantee that he would not hear it.
Su Yue nodded in agreement: "So this is actually a very evil festival."
After entering the Dragon Valley, they still had no way of judging which side represented the strength of the "justice side" in the game. They only knew that the goal of completing the game was to "calm the wrath of the dragon."
The Duke said that the Dragon God was angry because there were no fruits to eat, which did not sound very reliable. Moreover, they did not come back with any fruits today, but the Dragon God's anger value remained at 99, which meant that the Duke was just bluffing.
But the reason why the dragons are angry remains unknown. If you can't find the answer, you won't be able to complete the game.
The dragon that threw fireballs and stones at them was probably not a friendly force, but the Duke also did not look like a good guy, and the sacrifice used to defend against the dragon's attack was such a strange method.
Moreover, the Duke's "looking for tree fruits" resulted in the loss of one person, which directly excluded the Duke from the group of good guys.
Another known force at present is the townspeople. Although it seems that the townspeople and the Duke are both people living in this town, the young boy who looked at Su Yue and secretly shook his head indicates that there should be some discord between the townspeople and the Duke.
The problem is that they can't understand what the townspeople are saying.
"So now we have two main things to do." Su Yue thought for a moment and said, "Find a way to communicate with these townspeople, and also, go collect some fruit from the trees to see what the sacrifice is all about."
.
The next morning, the Duke came and knocked on the door, wanting to take everyone to have breakfast. On the way, they experienced another attack from the Dragon God's boulder. When they arrived at the restaurant, the Duke began to ask again who would like to pick fruit today.
Although the others didn't dare look out the window last night and didn't know what happened to the young man picking fruit from the tree, everyone knew that he didn't come back.
Picking fruit from trees means committing suicide, so naturally no one would go there anymore.
Seeing no one raised their hands, the Duke tempted again, "If anyone can bring back the fruit, I will place him in the safest room. No attack by the Dragon God will affect him."
Still no one spoke.
The Duke waited for a moment and then added, "I will also provide him with the best treatment three times a day, and ensure that he enjoys the most delicious food he has ever tasted in his life."
If you're going to die, what's the point of eating well and living well?
Naturally, no one spoke.
The Duke looked a little embarrassed. Just when he didn't know what to do, Su Yue said, "How about this? I'll go pick some fruit, and you can teach me how to communicate with the townspeople while I'm there. How about that?"
Duke: “…”
Are you bargaining here?
The Duke's face turned extremely ugly, red and black, as if his dignity had been greatly challenged. After a few minutes of silence, the Duke said, "I can open the library to you. You can go and look up how to communicate with the townspeople. How about that?"
"The library was opened to me and my companions because I was busy picking fruits and had no time to look up books," said Su Yue.
Duke: “…”
You're really bargaining!
But there was nothing they could do. No one wanted to pick the berries, but the Duke seemed to really need someone to pick the berries, so after hesitating angrily for a while, the Duke finally gave in.
So Su Yue went to pick fruits from the trees, and Cang Zhi and Zhao Shuo, as Su Yue's friends, got the right to use the library.
"This is ambergris." The Duke handed a black, shiny stone to Su Yue. "Take it and you will be protected from poisonous insects. I wish you good luck."
Yesterday, the young man also took away a piece of ambergris like this. At that time, everyone was envious, jealous and hateful of him. Now that the young man has not returned, ambergris has become something that everyone avoids.
Su Yue held the ambergris in his hand and weighed it slightly. The weight was about the same as that of an ordinary stone. When he put the ambergris to his mouth and nose, he could smell a very faint woody fragrance. For a moment, he could not tell that this stone had any other function. Moreover, this was obviously an exclusive prop in the game "Dragon Valley" and there was no way to compare it with other things.
In short, Su Yue put the ambergris into his pocket and was ready.
Su Yue then asked the Duke to take him, Cang Zhi, and Zhao Shuo to the library before he set off. The Duke thought this request was unreasonable and refused to agree, but Su Yue's bargaining skills were profound, and the Duke finally agreed with a sullen face.
The town library is located high up in the town, close to the core area of the altar. As soon as you enter, you will see many tall shelves filled with books.
The books meander along the shelves, flowing like wooden rivers in the gloomy library.
"I'm relying on you here." Su Yue said.
"Don't worry, Boss!" Zhao Shuo said confidently, "You should do your best too, Boss!"
Su Yue responded and walked out. When he reached the door, he found Cang Zhi following him out. Although Cang Zhi looked like he was just looking for a book from the shelf at the door, Su Yue had a hunch that he had something to say. He didn't know if he had found a clue or something.
So Su Yue stopped and asked him, "What's wrong?"
Cang Zhi hesitated for a moment before walking over. When he reached Su Yue, he paused for a moment, then quickly said, "Be careful."
Then he left without looking back.
Su Yue:...?
