Chapter 222: Insect King Jing and Empress Corpse Emperor
In the wind and snow, the sound of the armored city's formations can travel far away, and the lights in the city will also attract foragers in the dark, so it is not safe.
After leaving the town of Manbach and driving for about half an hour, the armored city on the flanks was attacked by unknown creatures. Although they returned in vain and only fought fiercely for a few minutes, it was still delayed for more than half an hour.
"How far is this from Manbach Town?" Li Yinguang smiled bitterly and shook his head. It was not easy for the Manbach family's armored city formation to travel more than 7,000 kilometers in half a month to reach Qingzhou Prefecture.
Xiaoman blinked: "Less than twenty kilometers!"
Li Yinguang raised his hand and touched her head, causing the little girl to roll her eyes. After the Iron Armor City formation restarted, he waved for everyone to rest.
Because of its size, and because Li Yinguang was valued by Lord Manbach, the Castle's armored city was in the center of the formation, which was relatively the safest place, right behind the flagship city.
After stretching, Li Yinguang turned around and wanted to go back to the room, but was stopped by Xiaoman.
"Brother, I have something to tell you!"
Seeing Xiaoman's serious look, the others looked at each other and turned to leave the control room, leaving only Li Yinguang and Xiaoman alone.
"Let's talk!" Li Yinguang sat back on the metal chair in the center of the control room. No one else smiled and indicated that she could talk.
Xiao Man walked up to Li Yinguang, held Li Yinguang's thighs and climbed onto him very unceremoniously, leaned in his arms, and asked in a low voice: "I want the 'worm crystal' of the hell ghost monster!"
Li Yinguang was startled. Among the most precious materials on the 'Netherworld Dragon Earthworm King' and 'Hell's Nether Monster Insect', 'Insect Crystal' is definitely one of them.
The 'soul pearl' is the 'crystal of the soul', which is the residence of the soul. However, after the death of the two insect kings, part of the soul in the body was devoured by the Yin beasts in the ancient battlefield, and the other larger part was used by Jia Xiuchuan's machine
The soul lanterns were collected and gone, so the soul beads were not formed in the minds of the two insect kings.
If the 'soul bead' represents the soul, then the 'insect crystal' represents 'power', which was the source of power in the bodies of the two previous insect kings.
The 'Insect Crystals' in the bodies of the 'Regional Nether Monster' and the 'Netherworld Dragon Earthworm King' were taken away by the female Corpse Queen, thus falling into Li Yinguang's hands!
"What do you want 'insect crystal' for?" Li Yinguang asked curiously.
Xiaoman rolled his eyes and muttered, "You must be doing something serious. I'm not ignorant about such a precious thing, so I won't let it go to waste on you."
Li Yinguang looked down at her and found that the little girl's eyes were full of cunning, because she deliberately did not want to tell him what to do with the 'insect crystal'.
Li Yinguang was not reluctant to part with him. He smiled bitterly and murmured: "You're still hiding it from me. You're not doing any good deeds, so you won't be able to see the light of it, right?"
"You just have to say whether I want to give it or not!" Xiaoman snorted, pouting his little mouth, which means a lot. If you don't want to give it up, just say it.
Li Yinguang smiled and shook his head. This childish provocation method was of no use to him. The 'insect crystals' of the hell ghost monsters were of little use for the time being. Since Xiaoman wanted it, let's give it to her.
Last night, Li Yinguang had controlled the female corpse queen to come out of the Zhenbei Iron Mine and returned to the outside of the town. At this time, the precious and expensive materials on the female corpse queen and the two insect kings were all lying among the treasures of the Iron Armored Castle.
In the secret room.
"I can give you the 'Insect King Crystal' of the hell ghost monster. Brother, I don't have to ask you what you are going to do with it, but you have to promise me one thing." Li Yinguang said.
Xiaoman blinked and asked curiously: "What's going on?"
Li Yinguang said seriously: "You can't tell anyone. Only you can know about the 'Insect King Crystal'."
"Can!"
Xiaoman thought for a moment and immediately agreed happily.
Li Yinguang also deduced from this that this girl was most likely using the 'Insect King Crystal' to practice or improve herself, rather than doing something in partnership with others.
"Wait!"
Patting her little head, Li Yinguang stood up from the metal chair and walked towards the treasure secret room. In fact, Xiaoman also knew the password of the treasure secret room. If she put something in it, if she wanted to take it, even if she didn't follow Li Yinguang
You can even take it away.
In the Iron Armor City of the Old Castle, only three people know the password to the treasure chamber. One is Li Yinguang, the lord of the Iron Armor City, the other is Alma, and the last one is Xiaoman.
The size of the treasure secret room is about thirty square meters. It is neither too big nor too small. There are many things placed in it, such as the half giant sword inserted by the "Yu Xi Giant Clan" on the head of the "Regional Netherworld Monster".
The 'Silk Book Drawings' etc. found in the alchemy notebook bought at Henry Brothers' Grocery Store at the Snowy Wasteland supply point are now placed in the treasure secret room.
Now, there are also ‘Insect King Crystals’, two Insect King-level ‘mysterious gems’, six drops of ‘Cerebral Marrow Fluid’ with the ability to reverse life, Dragon Earthworm Insect King Eyeballs with mysterious functions, etc.
Just take these things and sell them for money, and you can at least buy the armored city formation of the Manbach family outside.
The 'Empress Corpse Emperor' stands gracefully and magnificently in the center of the treasure chamber, with her eyes closed tightly. There is no breath of life on her body, and she can be used as an air conditioner even if it is cold.
I don't know if it's because of the lighting, or because Li Yinguang's eyesight is not working well, but I always feel that her complexion seems to be much more rosy than when she was first brought from the 'Corpse Cave'.
Although it is still so pale and gray, it is more like human skin. The color gives people a feeling that it has a little warmth.
Li Yinguang took down the "Insect King Crystal" of the "Hell Netherworld Monster" from the treasure shelf. In fact, in terms of strength alone, although the "Hell Netherworld Monster" is not the "Insect King", in terms of strength, it is really
It may not be weaker than the 'Dragon Earthworm King', and the treasures on it are only a lot more than those on the Dragon Earthworm King!
The 'Two Insect Kings' were full of treasures, but it was a pity that they fell into the hands of the 'Iron Armored Army'.
Li Yinguang couldn't help but smile, shaking his head and saying to himself: "You can't be too greedy, as you will overflow when you are full!"
Li Yinguang and the Castle Iron Armored City as a whole have made a lot of money from the two insect kings, the 'Netherworld Monster Insect of Hell' and the 'Dragon Worm King of the Underworld'.
This is equivalent to a thousand-fold increase in one's worth in one day and one night!
What else is there to be dissatisfied with?
Li Yinguang took the 'Insect King Crystal' and walked to the door of the treasure chamber. After he paused, he tilted his head and turned back to the 'Empress Corpse Emperor'.
After looking at her for a while, he raised his hand and tried to wipe the corner of her mouth, muttering: "Why is there blood stains on the corner of her mouth?"
Li Yinguang thought it was the result of drinking a lot of blood from the Insect King's body that day, and didn't think about other aspects.
After cleaning her, he turned around and walked towards the door of the treasure chamber again.
creak,
The moment the secret room door was closed, the 'Empress Corpse Emperor' who had closed her eyes suddenly opened her eyes. Li Yinguang didn't even see that one of the two insect king eggs in the treasure secret room had been broken, and the creature inside was broken.
It was hollowed out and eaten clean by something.
One of the three insect king eggs that was carried back from the 'Corpse Cave' that day was still being 'roasted' in the bilge smelting furnace. Xue Niang tried it with ordinary flames but couldn't bake it at all. After all, they are also the two insect king eggs.
The offspring are a strong alliance, in order to develop stronger genes and cultivate stronger offspring. How can they be roasted casually?
Who is Li Yinguang? He's a guy who doesn't achieve his goal and feels itchy in his heart. Since it can't be cooked with ordinary flames, let's try using a smelting furnace. After throwing it into the smelting furnace, it hasn't been taken out yet and it's still being roasted.
In the ancient battlefield, when the Empress Corpse Emperor sucked the blood from the bodies of the Underworld Monster Insects and the Underworld Dragon Earthworm King, she was not fully awakened. It was just her own instinct to eat. She felt that the blood of the two insect kings was too sweet and she could not control her appetite.
The tooth pierced in.
The lifespan of the 'Dragon Worm King of the Underworld' has exceeded a thousand years, and the age of the hell ghost monsters is several times older than this dragon worm king.
Even a drop of the blood of these two creatures can burst the body of an ordinary human being, but the Empress Corpse Emperor is not a human. She has essentially completed the transformation of yin and yang. The genes in her body have long been non-human, and she has completely become someone else.
a species.
Therefore, the 'Empress Corpse Emperor' can not only withstand the energy contained in the blood of the two insect kings, but also absorb and transform them into her own energy without restraint.
With the blessing of the blood power of the two insect kings, they have accomplished what the zombie keepers have not been able to do for decades.
After the empress woke up, her memory was still in chaos, but because of the 'mysterious gem' stitched in Li Yinguang's heart, she had used energy to model her system, which meant that she actually had a 'primary' and 'secondary' relationship with Li Yinguang.
Due to the contractual relationship, as long as Li Yinguang uses energy, he can control the 'Empress Corpse Emperor'.
This kind of control is protected by the contract rules, and the Empress Corpse Emperor has not yet thought of a way to lift it. In other words, the 'Empress Corpse Emperor' can still be controlled by Li Yinguang, but she cannot resist under the constraints of the contract rules.
Therefore, after meeting Li Yinguang, for the sake of her own safety, the Empress Corpse Emperor still pretended to be in an 'unawakened' state.
In her mind, she now has the memories of her life and the memory of her bloodline instinct to become the Corpse Queen.
And although these memories have made her extremely powerful, they also understand more clearly what the most basic 'contract rules' in the world represent.
'Contract' is the most basic and strongest rule in this steampunk world that cannot be conquered or destroyed by force. It is everywhere, transformed into rules and regulations, like countless invisible tentacles, controlling this bizarre world, allowing those who see it
It is like an extremely powerful creature that wants to crawl at the feet of the weak, making those useless things become hot. It can turn human beings' cunning and selfish genes into sharp swords, cut through all races, and stand at the top of the pyramid without falling.
