Chapter 8: The Gluttony Instinct
How are my father and brother doing? Is the Soul Fire Demon still so naughty? Are the aunts and uncles okay? Will you ...... Will you miss me?
Su'er stared blankly ahead, her heart fluctuating. Her hands and feet have not yet been bandaged, but according to the Assassin boss Armani, she is recovering faster than a human and will be able to move normally in two days. During this time, she had nothing to do but spend the day in a daze.
Now, several people from "Si Lebing" gathered around her. It's Armani's boss who cooks, and he seems to only "cook" this cooking technique, probably because he boils a lot of poisonous 'medicine' on weekdays; Sitting in the dense canopy of the tree above his head and reading a book, it's the space mage who is not guilty, he seems to be lazy, but he is actually in charge of guarding; the magic archer Chigami has just returned from hunting, sitting on a low stump and drinking water, and wiping the dripping water from his chin with the back of his hand, which is very pleasant; the only dark elemental life that is not here, Fallen Coffee, patrols the surrounding area, and can eliminate hidden dangers in the first place. The division of labor in the team is very clear, and everyone has their own strengths.
Su'er is also part of the team, and what she has to do is very simple. Her fingers are not broken, so she can weave a web with soul 'wave' length to open up a quiet space for everyone. The tropical rainforest is covered with layers of vegetation and a humus layer underneath that emits heat, so it is both 'damp' and humid and sultry, and there are so many mosquitoes that there are different cobwebs to intercept it.
A burst of black mist flew to the ground, turning into a pretty 'girl' in front of Chisami-Fallen Coffee: "I'm back." As she spoke, she snatched the jug from the thousands, and drank it with her neck up, and drank it very pleasantly, and the water droplets were sprinkled in her bottomless 'milk' groove. Chikami looked at her pitifully: "Stay some!" ”
"It's time to eat!" The Armani boss greeted and then served the 'meat' soup to everyone. Suo'er's portion is the most, it's half a pot of soup.
The 'meat' soup is extremely simple, that is, put a little salt, not even oil, because the boss of Armani said that "the smell of thorns and 'sexuality' will attract beasts". How much you want to eat sweets! But driven by hunger, she still ate meal after meal of such monotonous and repetitive dishes without complaint. She is really fierce when she eats, and she can't wait to 'lick' the bowl after eating and drinking, which makes everyone in "Si Le Bing" look sideways.
The gluttony instinct is that Suo'er, who is in the 'spring' stage, needs a lot of nutrients, so she has to increase the amount of food. Must eat food equal to their body weight every day; The natural recovery rate of stamina, mana, soul points, and elements is doubled, and the number of 'sex' points increased with each upgrade is doubled.
"Next time you're going to have to hunt more prey." Boss Armani instructed Chikami.
She didn't know why her appetite suddenly skyrocketed, although it was good for wound recovery, but it always made her feel weird. For example, Sister Xiaowei never lets go of her stomach to eat, saying that she is afraid of being overweight! What if I eat too fat? Wouldn't it be impossible to wear a beautiful dress? The 'girl' child's mind is very complicated, so Su'er eats happily, but after eating, she is depressed.
"I'm done." After saying that, he teleported back to the canopy of the tree, spread out the book and continued reading.
Suo'er looked at him a little scared, because he made him angry a few days ago - he fed soup to himself who couldn't hold a soup spoon, and his movements were focused and meticulous, which reminded him of his father, so he said casually, who knew that his face was immediately 'gloomy', and he never took the initiative to talk to himself again.
Pointing to the tableware that he had left behind, Giarmio scolded: "Damn, don't wash the dishes!" Shall I deduct your money? As he spoke, he lightly borrowed his strength on the trunk of the tree, and in a few strokes came to Wuji's side, touched the other party with his hand, and said with his 'lips': "Do you want to tell her about the captain?" ”
"There's no need." No blame is also answered in the 'lip' language. The little girl can '' the spider silk, who knows if she will hear the voice?
"What do you say, Captain, next?"
"I don't think I'm going to stay in the country. He's so strong, he definitely doesn't want to drag down his friends and family - he's that kind of person. ”
————————————————————————————————————
"Your Majesty, it's here." In the Atlantic, the captain of the ghost fleet and the escort said to Qingyi.
"I won't stay long."
Qingyi didn't need a rope ladder to jump onto this reef, which was only seven or eight square meters, and the shadow cushioned his landing like a spring 'bed'. Gray-black 'color' light rose from the magic circle, teleporting him to the "eternal destination".
The last time I came to the "Eternal Destination" was about half a year ago, but no matter what happens after half a year or a thousand years, the island doesn't seem to change.
There is still not a trace of earth to be seen on the island, and it is all paved with neatly repaired red 'color' stone slabs, which are a little dazzling red, and 'shoot' seven 'colors' glow in the sun. Two columns of purple and blue 'colored' 'flowers' outlined the road, and a black 'colored' crystal tree was placed in the 'flower' garden, forming a two- or three-kilometer-long avenue, and every few hundred meters there were two guards in full armor standing face to face on both sides of the road, they did not squint, but only stroked their 'chest' when Qingyi passed in front of them. At the end of the road is a magnificent and majestic palace, two magic towers with one-man tall black 'colored' crystals suspended at the top of the palace like guards, and from time to time there are black 'colored' arcs flashing between the crystals.
With the accumulation of knowledge, Qingyi knew that the red 'colored' stone slab was another form of blood and bones, and the purple-blue 'colored' 'flower' was a handicraft shaped by pure spiritual sons, and the black 'colored' crystal tree was a fossil formed after the cold smoke elderberry was buried deep in the earth's crust for more than a few million years. And those guards who are fully armored are the eternal guards of the same level as the 'lost' soul shadow. Needless to say, there should be two lichs in charge at this time, and even "demigods" can stop you under the magic power.
Coming to the big 'gate' of the palace again, Qingyi couldn't help but stop. The 10-meter-high mahogany double 'door' has lifelike reliefs of various 'colors': on the left is a baby wrapped in young leaves, just opening his eyes, and on the right is an old man with a hunchback and crutches, who is about to close his eyes and leave the world at any moment, with dead leaves floating behind him. The two images with diametrically opposed artistic conceptions reflect each other and have far-reaching ideas.
After staying for a few seconds, Qingyi continued to walk, and the big 'door' automatically opened in front of him. After walking for three minutes and going up and down the stairs several times, he reached the lobby where the guests were to be treated. In the hall, there are long mahogany tables that are 70 meters long and 6 meters wide, and each position can be spaced three meters apart. There are bottles of purple and blue 'color' and fresh 'flowers' on the outside of the table, simple and elegant.
The old man sitting at the end of the hall spoke, "Here you are, sit down." "He's so ordinary, if he doesn't make a sound, it's really hard to get noticed. But Qingyi forced himself to pay attention to the old man from the beginning, because the other party was the master of this room, the Eternal Emperor, one of the rulers of the old era.
Qingyi had just pulled out a chair, and the old man said again: "Sit closer, let me take a good look at you." ”
"It's obviously two dead people, what kind of family are you guys!" Xue Duo couldn't change the 'fault' of chattering, and muttered quietly
Qing Yi came to the Eternal Emperor and sat down.
"You've done a great job."
System Prompt: Complete your quest "The Rise of the Necromantic Forces" and get the first stage reward: a "Wishing Stone", experience points of 3,000,000, gold coins of 1,000,000, and honor of 700,000.
System Prompt: Complete your quest "The Rise of the Necromantic Forces" and get the second stage reward: open the "Comprehension of the Law" quest, with experience points of 7,000,000, gold coins of 3,000,000, and honor of 1,300,000.
Two consecutive quest chimes indicate that the Eternal Emperor has recognized him for completing two stages of the quest. The first stage was naturally to defeat Olquila who forgot to come over to receive the reward, and the second stage was to defeat Astant. Needless to say, the first reward is so terrible that the BUG of "Wishing Stone" is terrible, and Qingyi has suffered two losses; The second reward is amazing, it is actually the "Understanding the Law" task. The player can't suddenly comprehend the law like an NPC, and can only be triggered through a quest. I heard that this task is not difficult, but it is extremely difficult to receive it, and I heard that some great gods have not yet mastered the law.
Can you open the law? Qingyi's heart warmed up.
A pretty 'maid' immediately brought a saucer covered with a metal cover to the table. Qingyi thought to herself, that would probably be another reward. At this moment, the Eternal Emperor suddenly asked an unrelated question: "June Sunshine, what do you think of this table?" ”
Yes? Qingyi turned his head and looked at the mahogany table again.
[The table is seventy meters long, six meters wide, and one and a half meters high.] The data is insufficient, and the weight has not yet been calculated. ]
[The table is extremely long and has no other features.] ]
"Yes, it's very long, and it's perfect for banquets." Qingyi couldn't think of how to answer, so he simply said a few words 'nonsense'. Let's hope this answer doesn't affect the final reward!
"yes, it's perfect for a banquet." The Eternal Emperor actually smiled slightly, nodded, and looked at the other end of the long table far-reachingly: "Once upon a time, this place was full of necromantic kings. ”
Infected by the old man's emotions, Qingyi involuntarily looked over, only to see empty 'dang' and 'dang' seats. He was fascinated, fantasizing about that scene, and then he couldn't help but be lost. The word "once upon a time" is cruel.
One of the 'maids' standing by the wall couldn't help but let out a sob.
The old man woke up with a sob, put away his smile, and said, "Open it and take a look, this is an extra reward for you." ”
The shadow reached up from under the chair with a hand and removed the metal cover for Qingyi. Qingyi's body shook. On the plate was a heart-shaped soul gem.
"Don't rejoice too soon, it's just a virtual will. It supports the Necromancer's exclusive abilities and allows you to continue wearing the Necromancy's exclusive gear, but it doesn't allow you to comprehend the laws or step into the third turn. If you want to go to a higher level, regain your own will. ”
was poured cold water by the Eternal Emperor, and Qingyi didn't care. Although the "Will of the Necromantic King" is a rare thing, for the Eternal Emperor, seven or eight can be used at the same time, so if the other party does not give it, it must be the system that restricts itself. It sounds like you need to get a true "Necromantic King's Will" in order to truly open the Law Quest, so what does it mean to "regain your own will"?
"Also, don't think about using the 'Wishing Stone' to gain your will. I recommend that you keep the 'Wishing Stone' and not use it for the best way to use it. It is precisely because I am afraid that you will be anxious, I will give you the virtual will, and you have no reason to use the 'Wishing Stone' now. ”
"There are many reasons, such as resurrecting dead subordinates or something." Qing Yi pressed the heart-shaped soul gem into the 'chest', and the White Bone Tyrant template worked smoothly. "But after I thought about it, I realized that it was really safe not to use it for the time being."
The "Wishing Stone" is a unique thing of the sovereign state, and it is also the treasure of the bottom of the box of the sovereign state, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is extremely valuable. In addition to the meaning of use, it also has a deterrent meaning, even if it is not used, it can make the enemy deeply jealous. Bigbowo's conversion of colonial aggression to economic aggression is likely to prevent other countries from using the "wishing stone".
The Eternal Emperor smiled and nodded, this smile was not gentle at all, but was so cold that people were about to 'pee' out, and said, "When you attacked Astant, I saw it very clearly. Why didn't you kill your defeated men at that time? You've killed two of his heroes, and it's a no-brainer to take down Astant. ”
Qingyi replied: "Because I'm tired." ”
"I thought that the Necromantic King would never get tired of fighting."
Qingyi shook his head: "I'm not exactly the Necromancer. In the real world, I'm human, and I'm tired. If you're not satisfied, we're sorry. ”
"Actually, I'm very happy with you." As if he didn't hear the sarcasm of Qing Yi's last sentence, the Eternal Emperor seemed to smile: "The necromantic kings of the new era are all adventurers. You don't follow rigid traditions, you have a personal will and a soul that will go on the path you believe...... I am very satisfied. Look at this. ”
What to see?
Qingyi stared at the blue 'colored' projection screen that suddenly appeared above the long table, and saw himself and Captain Pisa of the ghost fleet.
……………………………………
When I first went to Cornhill by boat......
Pisa stared at Qingyi's face: "So, what do we necromantic creatures believe in, Your Majesty?" Do you believe in the God of Souls who can resurrect us? Or is it faith in the Grim Reaper, who plunges people into eternal sleep? Or even faithless like a pathetic human being? ”
Faith...... What the?
Under an inexplicable thorn 'agitation', Qingyi transformed into a hideous-looking white bone tyrant and blurted out: "Believe in yourself!" No one is our savior, no one is our ruler! Only you are your own master! Necromantic creatures should be free in their minds because the fire of our souls burns only for ourselves! To live is to live, to make up for the regrets of life, and to be the enemy of the world for this reason! ”
"That's right!" Pizza was so angry that the whole body burned blue, changing into a bloody skeleton. The whole ship trembled with him and creaked: "We repay those who are kind to us; We take revenge on those who have enemies against us! If someone stands in our way, we will go to the bottom with him and never back down, because 'forward' is the right we have to fight back! The rights of human beings are given by God, and the rights of the necromancy are fought for by themselves! ”
……………………………………
The scene is frozen.
Qingyi smiled awkwardly: "Haha, you also keep such an old thing...... Anyway, how do you see it? ”
"I know everything. Your words hit the nail on the head, so I treasure them. The Eternal Emperor's fingers opened slightly, and the entire blue 'colored' screen condensed into a 'Soul Diamond' and landed on his hand. "I'm satisfied, because you don't blindly follow my wishes."
"Really? Maybe. "Qingyi is ambiguous." Is there anything else to command? ”
"No more. Go ahead and do what you think is right. ”
Qingyi got up and strode on the carpet.
The journey will begin again. The next destination, the "Huaxia" continent, the ghost city of Fengdu.
