"Tell me, what happened here? Why did everyone turn to stone?" Yaroslav asked, his facial expression and tone maintaining the same seriousness as when he stepped onto the edge of the "artillery settlement".
The bloody and scarred deserter just raised his head and glanced at Yaroslav's stern expression, and then instantly let out a harsh, male-female two-tone mixed scream from his throat that did not belong to his body.
Immediately afterwards, the deserter knelt on the ground, crawled to the left, hugged the broken table leg, and murmured:
"A monster...a monster with...a snake-like body..."
"A monster with a snake body? Do you think you are telling a mythical story? Even if there is Medusa, the Gorgon in central mythology, she should have been pierced through the heart by the leader of the dragon clan with sharp claws, and she would never appear in Cruise
In the northern territory of Germany." Ross, who was standing aside, analyzed it using his knowledge of history and mysticism.
But Yaroslav did not pay attention to Ross, but softened his tone a bit, and continued to ask questions amid the sound of artillery fire around him:
"Be clear, soldier. If you can describe in detail what you saw and heard, I will not report your escape. You know, according to the "Federal Military Law", escapees must be shot, and
Your family will also be affected by this, and will be expelled from major cities in the federation, wandering in desolate strongholds where supplies are scarce, hot and cold.
"So, I hope you can use the little courage you have in your body where it is needed."
"He's not Medusa... He's not Medusa... I heard His voice... His voice..." After the deserter answered two or three times in a crying voice, he finally calmed down and started twitching.
After a few times, I took a deep breath and was finally able to speak properly:
"That monster can speak our language. It is not ancient Krust German, nor is it Central German, but the same Krust German as ours, a language that has not changed for hundreds of years."
"Go on," Yaroslav ordered.
"He does have a snake body, about 10 meters tall. However, the upper body is that of a plump human woman, and the lower body... the lower body is a snake body covered with black and green scales.
"He has hands, but they are covered with fish skin, and the back and back of the head are all small snakes with independent consciousness. Some... are thicker than our human thighs, and some are only slightly wider than fingers."
"What else?" Yaroslav asked.
"And..." The deserter's lips visibly trembled a few times. He swallowed and continued:
"That face has a pair of fish gills on it, and there seems to be thin blue dragon wings on the left and right edges... It also seems to be a fish tail. In short, it looks like a strange combination of a human face and several aquatic species.
things.
"By the way, He also holds a lyre in His hand, and a bow and arrow that can penetrate everyone's chest. When I secretly observed Him near the stone, He was introducing Himself in our language."
"Introduce yourself?" Yaroslav looked at the deserter with doubtful eyes, seeming to have strong doubts about his story.
But the deserter raised his head high, stared at the swaying simple chandelier that emitted dim yellow light, and said His name:
"Novasnerava, this is His name, and His official name is 'New Snake Girl'. The banned organization once captured Him, but due to the pressure of Ivan XXV, he was forced to
He handed it over to the armies of the old empire.”
"The sequence...is it a monster?" Yaroslav whispered, as if he had already guessed such a result.
"That's right." The deserter did not notice the subtle change in Yaroslav's attitude and continued:
"The banned organization named it 'MB-1918: Newly Created Snake Girl'. Rumor has it that it was created by Ivanov, a scientist from the time of Ivan XXII. You should know that it is the technology of the old empire.
In the most romantic period, countless conceptual and imaginary scientific products were constantly turned into reality.
"Ivanov once used extremely poor techniques to draw an image of the so-called 'artificial Medusa' in a notebook he wrote called "Fantasy Gods and Witches" and wrote, 'She may
It is just a fictional thing created by the patriarchs of the Central Empire to intimidate the pagans, or it may be a great work of art constructed by the Creator in an era when the power of magic was abundant. In short, if humans want to occupy the position of gods, they must make gods.
Behavior. Creating monsters is a required course for God.'"
"So, you mean... He... that 'newly created snake girl' told you that she was created by humans?" Igor's heart was beating fast, feeling both nervous and uncomfortable.
I didn't believe it, so I simply asked.
The deserter nodded, expressing his approval of Igor's guess, and continued:
"Didn't the Zinni people in the south also create several powerful humanoid monsters? In fact, one of them is still controlling the poor lost people of the 'Chaos Group'.
"But having said that, this 'newly created snake girl' does have the power of the so-called 'Medusa' in mythology. When its eyes emit a deep red light, all free creatures with independent consciousness will be able to see it as long as they look into it.
It will be wrapped in gray energy and become a rock.
"This is a completely irreversible process. Once the human body turns into stone, it changes from organic matter to inorganic matter, similar to a hard-boiled egg. It is absolutely impossible to return to its previous appearance. These 'comrades' who were petrified before
They are actually dead, and their brains and the consciousness they carry stopped abruptly when they came into contact with the red light."
"So, where is that monster now? The monster that has hurt so many of our [Warriors] can't just run away, right? Since it was created, it should be responsible for destroying something or guarding it.
Destiny." Yaroslav analyzed based on his experience as an officer.

Body. At this moment, He is hiding in the intoxicating world created by the crimson blood, waiting for you to appear in front of Him." The deserter said, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, showing a very scary and proud look.
Yaroslav, on the other hand, really got up and walked to the window, preparing to look a few hundred meters away to find traces of the "newly created snake girl". But just when he was about to take a step to the window, Yaroslav seemed to
Thinking of something, he suddenly turned around, took out the officer's gun from his waist, turned around quickly, and put it against the deserter's head:
"You are not human, who are you?"
"Who am I? Of course I am a [soldier] of Krusted, a soldier preparing to escape." The deserter replied leisurely, which was in sharp contrast to Yaroslav's urgency and seriousness.
"Human?" Sophia said in a teasing but vigilant tone:
"Humans have human voices, beasts have beastly voices, and when a voice comes from another body, it always makes people feel weird, right? Deserter.
"Also, you just said that you saw the appearance of the 'New Snake Girl', heard her voice, and learned about her past through her narration. In fact, Huang Huan's time has just ended less than half of the time.
Hours later, the abnormality at the gap in the 'Wind Wall' had only occurred less than 15 minutes ago. In such a short period of time, let alone whether the monster could accurately convey so much information, even if it wanted to remember such complete information,
You have to be a genius, right?"
"What do you want to say?" The deserter lowered his head and asked in a particularly cold and gloomy tone.
"Actually, you are Him, and she is indeed...you." Sophia said.
As soon as she finished speaking, Yaroslav suddenly raised his right hand and pulled the trigger towards the center of the deserter's head!
Bang!
The silver bullet used to deal with special and extraordinary objects immediately penetrated the deserter's head, and a bright "Flower of the Other Side" made of blood appeared on his face.
However, the deserter did not die immediately. A low, hoarse, gloomy, strange and dark sound came from his throat, which sounded like a man's sobbing, but more like a woman's cry.
If you are not a warrior who has experienced hundreds of battles, you will inevitably collapse and go crazy under the fear that brings people as much as the underworld.
The sound of artillery outside the house, the blood-red sky, and the shrill screams made everyone present feel like they were falling into a bottomless abyss. When the short-term fear temporarily subsided, the heads of the deserters finally scattered.
It turned into a terrifying existence like petals.
when!
Taking advantage of Yaroslav's distraction, the center of the petal suddenly shot out several silver-white needle-like bone spurs towards his throat. Fortunately, Sofia had quick eyes and quick hands, and picked up the helmet left by the soldier who had already turned to stone.
, withstood the attack.
"What has become of him?" Yaroslav, who was in shock, put his hands on the wooden table and asked heavily, breathing heavily.
"I think he is indeed a human being, but when the 'New Snake Girl' fired scarlet light at him, part of his consciousness was forcibly poured into him and he became her servant." Igor said with an apology.
The tone said:
"I just remembered that I have indeed read the book "Fantasy Gods and Witches" and a related document "Krusted-22-01-SSR". They are mentioned in the contents of both books.
He found this 'newly created snake girl', and the description inside was basically the same as that of the deserter. However, there was one thing he didn't mention."
"What? Just say it!" Yaroslav ordered.
"The original intention of the creation of the 'New Snake Girl' is to protect...to protect the 'power of divine punishment created by the great emperor, which is enough to create a new world'."
