Another bloody delivery.
At the same place, I watched with some disappointment as each strong scorpion man moved barrels of oil from somewhere in the city of bides to the small square in front of the warehouse, and old rob personally collected and signed it. The oil will be temporarily stored in the warehouse until tomorrow for the caravan to take away. Zero thought he could see the well of the abyss, but now it seems that he is delusional.
But this is also normal. The well of the abyss must be a secret place for the city of bides. How can outsiders visit it at will.
After old rob signed for it, he seemed to see someone, but he bowed to his chest in the direction of the South above. Zero follows his vision and falls on a strange life.
They also have female characteristics, but the underground people are thinner than the Snake Girl. Its upper body is not completely exposed to the eyes of other life, although it does not wear anything similar to clothes, but a layer of brown carapace covers its moving body. The crustacean seems to be innate, so when it spreads to the lower body, it naturally transforms into the limbs of some insect.
It has a spider like abdomen and three pairs of feet to support its body. This makes the creature in front of us look like a mixture of women and spiders, with some kind of strange beauty.
Next to the beauty spider, there are five snake women and five scorpion men. These ten underground soldiers are different from ordinary soldiers. They all have strange tattoos on their bodies, but they don't know what they mean.
When old rob bowed, the spider nodded to the old man. When it looks to zero, its eyes become sharp, with a sense of blame. Zero remembers their strange likes and dislikes, and immediately lowers his head. At this time, old rob came over and muttered, "I didn't expect the sacrificial priest to come. He's really a monster. He hasn't changed a bit in the past 20 years."
Zero turned to walk with him and asked in a low voice, "is that their leader?"
"You can say that." Old rob scratched his head and replied: "these monsters worship the abyss. They believe that Wang Naga, who is sleeping in the abyss, will wake up one day and lead them back to the abyss. Every spring, they hold a sacrifice. The thing that looks like a woman and a spider is their chief priest, who presides over the city of bides and is regarded by these monsters as the agent of Naga on the ground. "
By this time, zero had a general understanding of the strange form of this underground alien. In terms of weapons and urban architecture, they have advanced technology and technology. However, their culture remained in the stage of primitive feudal worship of gods. From the human point of view, this is a very contradictory phenomenon. The reason for this abnormal civilization may be related to their living environment.
Even zero did not know that when he was observing the underground people, the chief priest was also observing them.
In the eyes of the beauty spider, no matter zero, old rob and other caravan members. In the eyes of this strange life, they present a variety of color spectra. When these spectra overlap, they will generate three-dimensional images. Looking at these images, the chief priest said in their unique language, "how are the preparations for the ritual of the abyss?"
Standing on the right side of the beauty spider, a strong male scorpion warrior put one hand around his chest, bowed his head and said: "Dear chief of sacrifice, our king Naga's gene completion has reached 94%. If there is no accident, it will be 100% soon. "
"Well, thanks to the humans." The priest's mouth showed a cold smile: "this occupies the life of the earth, and the gene fragments in the body are so diverse and complex. Otherwise, even if I get the inspiration from my mother, I can't complete the gene of my king Naga. As long as my king awakes, it will be the time for the king of the abyss to come to the earth. At that time, the human of parvallice will be my king's first good meal when he wakes up. "
"Greedy creatures like this, peeping at the blood of our abyss, should have disappeared in the earth long ago!" Leaving this sentence, the priest turned around and left slowly with the support of the people.
It's late at night.
In the rest area of the caravan, zero opened his eyes. He sat up, soft and silent. Everyone had gone to sleep, and even the two underground soldiers on duty outside were leaning against the wall to nap. Yeliu comes to zero. She has taken off her hooded cloak and put a pasted lacquer black leather armor on her bandaged body.
The leather armour is smooth and bright, with few seams. Wearing it on Yeliu's body is just like her second skin. This is the latest stealth combat Leather Armor developed by asgat. Its thickness is less than 1cm and its weight is negligible. And the surface has a micro arc design, which can make the wearer reduce the wind resistance to the greatest extent when moving. It's just that this set of leather armor, called "latent shadow", is different from the night God's full cover design. It only focuses on protecting the chest, arms, knees and other important parts and joints, and its defense is not satisfactory.
This is the battle armor that zero bought for Ryukyu before he set out. Although the latent shadow has insufficient defense, it is very suitable for the killer of Ryukyu. The latent image is much better than the leather armor sewn by Yeliu himself. When she got the battle armor that day, Yeliu didn't say anything, but from the sparkle in her eyes, it's not hard to know that the girl loved the gift very much.At the moment, Yeliu, dressed in latent shadow, tied her long hair tightly to avoid unnecessary interference. Two blackened composite daggers are attached to the outside of one pair of thighs to facilitate extraction at any time. In addition, Yeliu has no other equipment.
For the night Messenger, her body itself is a deadly weapon.
Zero takes off the clothes for covering up, reveals the close fitting night God tactical clothes, and then carries a carrying tool from the backpack for dry food. From the carrying equipment, zero took out a watch for Yeliu to wear. In this humble watch, there are pocket tools such as laser scanning hidden, which can be used by users for terrain scanning. Zero also took out one and put it on. The two watches have been modulated, and the built-in scanning system is connected with the terminal in pavaric. When the scan was over, Beyonce and they were able to get a detailed three-dimensional map of the city.
"Listen, we're not here to fight this time, so try to avoid unnecessary conflicts." Zero said simply and said with his finger: "we are divided into two directions. You go up and I go down, and we meet in the middle. Do you know how to use the scanner? "
Yeliu shook his head honestly, and zero explained the usage to her again. It's not complicated to use. I know how to use it. After the explanation, zero made a gesture to indicate the beginning of the action. Yeliu nodded, his figure was in a flash, and he had disappeared in the sight of zero. Even zero can't notice how Yeliu moves. She can't get wind of it and her energy doesn't overflow. She should have used some special skills.
Zero smiles, empties his mind, and starts the ability of shadow jump. With the shadow of the corner as the medium of ability, zero's figure disappears quietly in the room. In the room, everyone was sleeping soundly, but no one found that zero sum night Ryukyu had gone.
Yeliu's movements are light and quick. She can always make herself appear in the hiding places of various buildings or in the dead corner of the sight of patrol soldiers by using some specific footwork. She is like a cat walking at night, walking in this huge city with gentle steps. She is like the wind. Her actions are unpredictable. At this time, she is at the bottom of the overpass, but at the next moment, she climbs on the vertical cliff.
Compared with Yeliu's varied and complicated special actions, zero action is much simpler, but its efficiency is not inferior to that of Yeliu. For zero, the environment of the city of bides is almost advantageous. The three-dimensional city construction makes shadow areas appear in many places. With the support of the ability of wandering shadow jump, zero constantly flashes among various shadow areas.
The distance of each flash is about 100 meters. After dozens of flashes, zero has come to the bottom of the city of bides. This underground city has very clear class characteristics.
Zero in the mobile at the same time, do not forget to observe the surrounding environment. He found himself and his caravan in the upper central part of the city of bedes. Most of the people living in this area are ugly dwarves. If divided by human cities, the area from the middle to the top should be a slum or something, which is also the area inhabited by the lower class in the city of bides.
The lower the class, the higher the class. Soldiers like snake woman and scorpion man live in the lower part of the central part of the city. They occupy one third of the whole city. As for the lower area of the city of bides, the buildings are more and more complex and exquisite. We have seen such decorative techniques as relief here. It can be seen that the nobility of the underground people live in this part of the area.
It's easy to understand from old Rob's words that the underworld is an alien group that worships the abyss. According to class status, naturally, the closer the area is to the abyss, the more noble it is. As for the forbidden area of bides, the well of the abyss is at the bottom of the city.
Another shadow jump, zero appears on the periphery of a square building. When he came here, he had seen several buildings like this. He knew that the underground people could distinguish their functions by building shapes. This kind of square building should be similar to the function of human laboratory. But the buildings below the city not only have their unique symbols on the outer wall, but also have a circle of relief on the top of the building. The content of the relief is a picture of a variety of people bowing to the king of Naga. Such content appears in many places throughout the city. It is not difficult to see the status of the king of Naga in the minds of the underground people.
Zero wanted to go through the edge through the shadow, but he heard a low voice from the other side of the wall. It doesn't sound like a human, but it sounds like it's made by the underground people. Although I don't understand this foreign language, it's not difficult for me to hear the pain in my voice. He moved in his heart and his figure flickered. When he appeared, he had entered the interior of the building.
Zero appeared behind a load-bearing column. Looking out behind the column, I found that it was a hall of several hundred square meters. There are stone beds in the hall. The stone beds are arranged 10 times 10, and there are as many as 100. On each stone bed lay an underground people, including snake women, scorpion men, and even a few dwarves. From time to time, these underground people groaned with pain in their voice.
Lying on the stone bed, the underground people look tired, and their bodies fester in different areas, just like the precursor of human gene collapse. But in the corner of the hall, there is a medicine rack on display. Zero figure flickers, appears in one of the drug rack, only the drug rack is placed on the antibiotics, there are some commonly used drugs, such as aspirin.There were quite a few medicines in the goods delivered by the zero recall caravan, among which aspirin and antibiotics were the most. In asgart's related materials about alien race, it is almost not mentioned that alien race will use human drugs, because different races have great differences in body and gene structure. This makes drugs that are useful to humans potentially toxic to other species.
But the underground people use a lot of human drugs, which is strange. When he was thinking, he heard a cry in his ear. But on a stone bed in the distance, a male scorpion soldier suddenly grabbed his body so hard that when his hands rose and fell, he took up a large part of his flesh. As soon as the call started, the sound of footsteps sounded outside the room. Zero knew he couldn't stay, and his figure flashed and disappeared in the hall.
The hall should be a ward like building, and the people lying on the stone beds are undoubtedly patients. I just don't know what kind of disease they are suffering from. It seems that they are in severe condition, but they use human defecation drugs. It's really strange.
Zero did not go far, but hid outside the ward. A moment later, a few dwarf labourers pulled out a body from the hall. It was the scorpion man who just yelled wildly. They also did not see how to deal with it, but directly threw the body into the abyss. Zero body slightly forward, then disappear in the shadow. When it reappeared, it was under an overhead overpass.
In the air came the vibration of heavy objects falling down. Zero leaned out of the overpass and reached out to catch the body left by the dwarf. Zero immediately flashed again in the shadow of nearby buildings. He quietly put down the body and took out a vessel from the carrying tool. This is a container for storing gene samples. Without shaking one's hand, a scalpel can be produced with an energy tool. He shrewdly cut off a piece of flesh from the body, put it into a container, and then carefully put it into the carrying tool. He's going to take the specimen back. Maybe someone under Beyonce's staff can test what's wrong with the underground people.
This may be a major breakthrough for the study of the underground people.
After all this, zero threw the body into the abyss. And he continued to explore under the city of bides. When zero blinked for the second time, he heard a "plop", which should be that the body had fallen to the bottom. From the sound, there seems to be an environment like a lake at the bottom of the city of bides, otherwise the sound of bodies falling into the water would not be heard.
Zero suddenly in the heart of a jump, it may not be the lake, but the oil mine.
Well of the abyss!
