The merchants respected Lu Zhengkang very much and took the initiative to give him some treasures. They found some useful things from their inventory in twos and threes and lined up to hand them to him.
But Lu Zhengkang declined them all. He still wanted to travel lightly, but he couldn't bring too many things.
The merchants felt that Lu Zhengkang was too raw, and they were also worried about his misfortune, so they insisted on asking Lu Zhengkang to pick three things.
In desperation, Lu Zhengkang took two talisman slots and a pair of very high-quality bone nails.
Now he has three bone nails. The largest one is the dullest. The smaller one is the gift he just received. It is the sharpest and has beautiful lines on it. It can be said to be a refined bone nail. The smallest one is the sharpest one.
I bought it before and it is the easiest to wield.
Bundle the largest bone nail vertically, and arrange the remaining two at the right shoulder in order of size, forming a semi-fan shape. You can pull it out by raising your hand. The round shield is tied through the bone nail in one place, which is exactly three bones.
At the intersection of the nails, the crossbow and grappling hook were tied to the waist, the lantern was hung under the cloak, the water bottle was placed on the back of the waist, and the map was placed in the bag containing Geo. Finally, Lu Zhengkang attached the two talisman slots to his chest.
On the carapace, attach the amulet obtained from Gruz's lair.
A strange power spread from the amulet, and Lu Zhengkang felt that his body suddenly became extremely light, and he was about to be blown away by the wind. But after all, he did not really become lighter, but there was an uncontrollable, jumping feeling in his heart.
impulse!
Lu Zhengkang bent his legs and jumped up suddenly, like a cannon, soaring straight into the sky. The merchants on the ground exclaimed as they watched this unruly warrior spread out high in the air.
The cloak, like a strange bird, glided away into the distance.
"Take care along the way!" they shouted and wished, and Lu Zhengkang, who turned into the breeze, carried a heavy responsibility, like a free swift, and flew in the direction with the most abundant water vapor.
The misty lights of Shangchong Village below gradually faded away, and Lu Zhengkang saw the cave wall not far ahead, with a raised platform hanging in the air. He quickly took out his crossbow, wound up the grappling hook, and estimated his gliding
After a distance, he shot the grappling hook diagonally upward, and the hook was firmly nailed to the stone cone on the roof of the cave. Then he grabbed the rope and swung forward. After passing the lowest point, he rose again, retracted the grappling hook, opened his cloak and slid again.
This time the distance was enough, and Lu Zhengkang landed firmly on the platform.
There were blue dreamy water waves flickering in the depths of the platform passage ahead. Lu Zhengkang walked quickly. After passing the passage, there was a huge natural cave. Now he was standing on a platform near the top of the cave. He walked to the edge and went down.
Looking at it, the beautiful pure blue lake water gathers into a gem-like water body, and the light projected from above is clear and beautiful. It seems that the whole world is hidden in the lake, fully revealing its beautiful side to all tourists.
Lu Zhengkang was not a very talented person, and he was rarely poetic about beautiful scenery, but his pursuit and judgment of beauty were not a problem.
The Blue Lake is indeed the most beautiful scenery he has ever seen in his life.
Open the map. There are many small roads around the Blue Lake. There is only one leading to the resting place. It is directly opposite, so there is no need to worry about finding the wrong one.
So Lu Zhengkang glided. Once the height was too low, he used the grappling hook to lift him up again. He flew like this over and over again for a long time. The blue lake was too big, and Lu Zhengkang's gliding speed was not very fast. Fortunately, the blue lake was not very fast.
Looking at the glistening lake water can relieve his mood, and Lu Zhengkang's own physical strength is sufficient, so he doesn't worry about exhaustion while rushing on the road.
At some point, the other side appeared.
It was a wide beach, with water plants growing from the lake to the shore, and some shells and conch shells walking on the shore. It looked like a summer beach, very relaxing.
Lu Zhengkang landed, and even with his current physical strength, he could barely breathe for a while.
Somewhat sleepy, but not enough to sleep.
Lu Zhengkang cheered up and looked ahead not far away. There was a passage there, and it looked extraordinary at first sight.
The style of the crossroad is a spiral shell, including the stones on the ground, cave walls, and houses, all have threads, but this passage is different. Although it is still a dark blue rock, the carvings are no longer threads, but pictures.
The slender mask was like a plump melon seed, with a sharp lower jaw and two mysterious and deep eye holes. Lu Zhengkang looked at these carvings carefully and thought, this is the face of an alien!
It really looks like an alien notebook icon.
But this is supposed to be a symbol of soul and death. A long mask.
The concept of death in insects has a long history, and Lu Zhengkang thought he could learn more about it when he had some free time.
Now he has completely confirmed that this road leads to the resting place, exactly like in the game.
Entering quickly, the blue lake behind him is getting farther and farther, and the beautiful and misty light is also dim. Lu Zhengkang walks into the darkness, just like all the bugs in this world, running around in the dim light, but bright
The beautiful world is always rare, just like a dream.
Entering the resting place, the terrain here no longer extends in all directions, but is very similar to that in the game, which brings great convenience to Lu Zhengkang.
Go all the way, jump up the stairs, open the mechanism, and enter the upper platform.
When I first arrived at the upper platform, I found that the ceiling was very low. I looked around and realized that I was standing under a bridge. There was a platform above. Lu Zhengkang climbed up and took a look. There were merit pillars scattered around.
There are long pillars with sculptures, all of which commemorate the insects that contributed to Hallownest. One sculpture is particularly large, with a pair of sharp horns, like an abstract insect. Lu Zhengkang walked to the sculpture, and there was a stone slab carved on it.
At the bottom of the statue, there is a message: Curse those traitors who betrayed the king.
Lu Zhengkang knew that this was the statue of the warrior Zeruo, and he might deal with the warrior's lingering dreams in the future, so he turned around and left without stopping.
After passing through another passage, we came to a larger forest of merit pillars, and in the center of the cave there was a raised altar with three extra tall pillars. Each pillar had a relief of a pale mask, and there was a monument in front of the pillars.
.
Lu Zhengkang walked to the altar and looked up at the three long pillars. The middle one was higher than the two sides, and carved on it was a one-eyed mask; the left pillar was carved with four-hole masks, a pair of big ones, a pair of small ones, and a small one.
The eye holes are like eyebrows, distributed on the big eye holes; the mask on the right side has three pairs of eye holes, which looks particularly terrifying and cruel.
There are insect inscriptions written on the monument.
"To protect the container, the Dreamkeeper is sleeping.
Teacher Monomon
In her archives, it is shrouded in clouds and mist.
Watcher Lurian
On his spire, overlooking the city.
Beast Hera
In her lair, in the deep darkness beyond the kingdom.
Through their devotion, Hallownest will endure forever."
Lu Zhengkang nodded and thought, "Predecessors always thought that future generations would never decline, but rise and fall are natural phenomena. How can there be an immortal dynasty? So these words can only be regarded as wishes for future generations. It's a pity.
No insects would come here, and few insects would remember such inspiring words, such a kingdom..." Just before his mind slipped into paranoia that denied everything, Lu Zhengkang came back to his senses in time and stopped thinking about it.
In the original work, at this time, the protagonist will be pulled into the dreamland of the moth clan, where he chases the light moth. After proving his determination, he will obtain the Dream Nail, a powerful artifact, but that may be the honor of the container, and Lu Zhengkang did not get it.
