"The guy who called himself the Night Stalker made me feel very uncomfortable because I could feel an inexplicable malice, but he didn't do anything to me as I imagined. Instead, he just let me go.
, and the same is true for Konohana Kaiyeji. After all, although her strength is not as good as before, she can still detect how terrifying the night demon is... Since then, I have never seen Konohanakai Yeji again.
, but I suspect that Konohana Kaiyeji may still come to trouble me, so I just came to you."
Taketori looked out the window, suddenly frowned and said: "I can feel that there is a very powerful existence not far away, but its situation seems to be a bit wrong, although from the pressure it is releasing now,
Look, it has reached the level of an ancient god, but I can't feel its soul, so is this a structure at the level of an ancient god? Or an artificial creature similar to Shoggoth?"
Liu Xing and others followed Zhutori's gaze and found that this direction was exactly aligned with the ruins of that ancient civilization.
Liu Xing also frowned and immediately told the situation about the ancient ruins, including what Sirius said.
"It's a bit interesting. It seems that this is an ancient civilization that is very researched in biotechnology. It allows the biological traps that are locked in a confined space to eat each other and complete the evolution. Now a creature comparable to a god has really appeared.
It is a terrifying existence, but if it only has power but no sanity, its combat effectiveness will not be fully exerted at all, not to mention that it should still be affected by the previous settings."
Taketori touched his chin and said with a smile: "I have heard a story before, that is, an ancient god was attacked while going out to do errands, and then after completing the bloody counterattack, he still couldn't hold on and fell.
In a deep mountain forest, he met an artificial creature that also had the power of the ancient gods; this artificial creature looked like an ordinary stag, but in fact it was a terrifying creature created by an ancient civilization.
Transforming reconnaissance aircraft, simply put, can transform into creatures that match the environment to detect nearby situations."
"Although this is a mechanical creature, it has the ability to repair and upgrade itself. That is to say, after it discovers that there are better materials around it, it will begin to transform itself and improve its abilities to a higher level. As a result,
Several ancient gods had fallen in that area, so this mechanical creature used various things left by those ancient gods to complete its ultimate evolution and became a powerful being with a variety of ancient god abilities."
"However, although its ability has surpassed that of most ancient gods, it is still a robot after all, so it has been programmed to become only a scout, a mercenary that cannot initiate attacks, and it
It will only run away when it encounters an enemy attack, and will choose to self-destruct if it cannot escape. Therefore, this robot has no abilities, but in the end, no one can beat it; but this biological trap is a little different, although
Traps are all about camouflage and relative stillness, so as long as we don't trigger this trap, there will be no problem, but once it is triggered, it will be troublesome, because even if it cannot kill us directly, it may collapse the entire ruins.
"
Speaking of this, Taketori continued with some worry: "I think it's better for you not to enter this ruins casually, because it is too dangerous inside. If..."
Before Zhutori finished speaking, she suddenly looked outside the door with a serious face and said nothing.
What's going on?
Liu Xing looked confused, but immediately thought of the ghoul from before.
"It's me, Chris."
Suddenly, a voice that was very familiar to Liu Xing came from outside the door. After all, Liu Xing had said a lot of things in this voice before.
Really a bloody ghoul?
Liu Xing walked forward and opened the door with some joy, because the bloody ghoul was already a powerful being that was no less powerful than an ancient god. Of course, the ancient god here refers to a non-combat ancient god like Zhutori.
Sure enough, it was Chris standing outside the door...wait, why is it Chris?
Chris saw Liu Xing's confusion and said with a smile: "In a previous expedition, I found a magic ring that allowed me to change my appearance, so now I can finally change back to my original appearance, but I just
Found a very interesting guy.”
Just then, Liu Xing discovered that there was another ghoul lying unconscious on the ground outside the door. It seemed that he had been knocked unconscious by Chris.
"This ghoul was following you before, and after I discovered it, it tried to run away, so I beat it up and now I'll leave it to you to deal with."
After dragging the ghoul into the room, Chris noticed Taketori flying in mid-air.
"Ancient God?" Chris said a little uncertainly: "I can feel the aura from her that only the Ancient God can have, but her strength seems a bit weak."
Taketori looked at Chris and hesitated to speak.
Liu Xing quickly introduced Taketori and Chris to each other.
"Haha, I never thought that I could become a partner with an ancient god, but this is also good news." Chris said with a smile: "If I am not wrong, you will come to Earthsea this time
, it’s just for the ruins of the ancient civilization’s capital, right? In fact, I’m here for this too.”
"Blood Ghoul, I have seen existences similar to you before, but their final results were all destroyed." Taketori said seriously: "It seems that you are really an exception, but since we have become teammates, then
I don’t have much to say, but I hope you can restrain your death aura a little bit, because I really feel very uncomfortable with this aura."
Chris shrugged, nodded and said: "It's understandable. After all, you are one of the ancient gods who represent life. You will definitely be unhappy with the death aura on my ghoul."
Seeing that both sides were still a bit uncomfortable, Liu Xing didn't know what to do.
At this moment, the ghoul suddenly woke up. After seeing humans around him, he subconsciously wanted to show his claws, but was directly stepped on the ground by Chris Black.
"Be honest, if you don't want to die." Chris said unceremoniously: "Tell me why you are following us, and stop struggling, kid. You won't be able to get rid of us at all."
The ghoul who was trampled on the ground did not believe in evil, and still tried to break free from Chris's suppression, but the result was naturally in vain.
But at this moment, Chris seemed to suddenly realize something, and looked at the ghoul with some curiosity, "Huh? Are you not a real ghoul? You are not a ghoul hybrid, so how did you become like this?
What does it look like? And it also has the abilities that a ghoul should have.”
As Chris spoke, he kicked the ghoul in the chest. As a result, the ghoul turned back into a human without even taking a breath.
A young South American.
The man gasped for air and looked at Chris with a dissatisfied look on his face.
"Interesting, is this a form of transformation? No wonder I can find a ring with its own transformation here."
Chris said curiously: "Now if you can, please answer the question I just asked - who are you and why are you following us? We will not hurt you if it is not necessary."
After thinking for a moment, the man nodded and said: "I just escaped to the capital yesterday and was almost caught by your friends before, so now I want to kill you as guests so that I can stay here for a while longer.
The result is now in your hands, so you can kill or chop me up as you please, but you have to give me a good time."
Upon hearing this, Liu Xing and others knew that this person was the mysterious person they met in the building before.
Liu Xing shook his head and said with a smile: "This was an accident. We were originally going to catch other people. Meeting you was just an accident."
The man's expression suddenly became embarrassed.
"Did it turn out to be an accident?" Chris said with a smile: "My friend, since this is just a misunderstanding, I won't embarrass you, but I am still very curious about how you became a ghoul.
Yes? If you can, tell me the answer."
The man stood up and said: "Witchcraft, I can turn into various humanoid monsters through witchcraft, such as ghouls, deep divers or shoggoths. But after completing the transformation, I
It also only has the basic abilities of this mythical creature, but it will be improved to a certain extent in terms of strength and agility."
"Witchcraft, I remember that the witchcraft here has been lost for a long time?" Chris said with some sigh: "The reason why I came to South America is because I heard that the unique witchcraft in South America is very powerful, and
It’s very interesting, but after I came here I found out that the witchcraft here had been lost long ago, and now only some superficial traces are left.”
When the man saw what Chris said, he showed a sympathetic expression, "Yeah, if my grandfather hadn't inherited part of the witchcraft, I might be just an ordinary person now, but I don't know what this is.
Good or bad, if I didn't know these witchcraft, I might still be living a peaceful life in my hometown, but of course I might have been buried in the ground."
At this time, Yin En asked curiously: "Friend, I think you should be from the Cactus Kingdom, right? So how did you come to the Earthsea Kingdom?"
The man sighed, sat down cross-legged and said, "If you want to hear this story, I can tell you."
Anyway, they were idle, and Liu Xing and others were also very curious about the origin of this mysterious man who could turn into a ghoul, and why he hid in the Kingdom of Earthsea.
"My name is Santos. I come from a small town in the Cactus Country. My family was originally the largest family in this town, controlling 80% of the land in the town. This is also because my grandfather is a famous local wizard, so my grandfather
I earned such a fortune by relying on my own ability; because I am the only one in my family who has the talent to learn witchcraft, I naturally inherited my grandfather's witchcraft and became the next head of my family.
But something unexpected happened at this time. To put it simply, there was a bastard disguised as a businessman who tried to make our town switch to avocado cultivation."
avocado?!
Everyone present was stunned for a moment, and then they remembered the avocado, a famous marketing fruit, a traffic star in the fruit industry. Because the quality of the avocado itself is average in all aspects, it can even be said to be a bit poor. As a result, with the efforts of the fruit dealers
Under the publicity, it has become a so-called healthy fruit, and its value has also changed from no one to the first-tier price in the fruit industry... Then, just like the enclosure movement hundreds of years ago led to sheep cannibalism
, now that avocados are so popular, people are eating avocados.
"You should also know that avocado is a fruit that consumes a lot of water resources, and our cactus country does not have much water resources, so if you want to grow avocados, you will definitely not be able to grow other crops, even us farmers
The normal water use will be affected, so my family is definitely not willing to grow avocados, but that bastard showed his true identity, that is, the spokesperson of United Fruit Company." Santos said helplessly.
United Fruit Company.
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that this company was still alive in this parallel world.
United Fruit Company, also known as United Fruit Kingdom, also known as Banana Kingdom, because this company once monopolized the production, supply and circulation of the entire banana market decades ago. The reason why bananas are now facing the risk of extinction is also
It is because the United Fruit Company made almost all the bananas in the world relatives in order to obtain the most economically valuable banana varieties. Therefore, the current bananas are almost identical at the genetic level, so they seem to be everywhere in the world.
The banana group may be destroyed at any time.
However, this kind of little "evil" is not worth mentioning for United Fruit Company, because the bad things it has done are simply too numerous to list. If we want to select the most disgusting companies in the world, then United Fruit Company will definitely be among them. After all,
It once turned every country in South America into its own plantations. The plantations more than a hundred years ago directly or indirectly harmed countless people. That’s why this terrible South America is now like this.
, the United Fruit Company must have at least half of the "credit"... Of course, because the United Fruit Company back then was really outrageous by people and gods, it had to merge with other companies, and then disappeared. Unexpectedly, it turned out that in Grammar
In the world set in the Sulu mythology, the United Fruit Company still exists.
