【You propose to the two savages that you go to the savage chiefs next. You can pay the reward and hope they can **** you there. 】
【The two savages were indifferent to your proposal. They just warned you many times not to have any ideas about the Ring Forest, and then walked away quickly and quickly disappeared into the white jungle. 】
…”
Mu You was speechless. It was indeed difficult for these savages to communicate. When he saw Zhihe, he acknowledged him as a 'friend', but he only allowed him to walk around in the Ring Forest. As for a warm welcome, he took the initiative to invite him to the tribe as a guest. too much.
At this time, Mu You finally understood why the ancestors lost to the gods.
In fact, judging from the performance of the savages in the face of the Godslayer, in terms of combat effectiveness alone, the savages are not necessarily inferior to the gods.
The reason why they lost was purely because their IQ was crushed!
Of course, there should be smart people at the top of the savages, but most individuals are too rigid and it is difficult to effectively implement tactics.
There is no other way. Without the help of the savages, Mu You can only crawl back through the cracks in the rocks and inform Muro of the situation here.
The cracks in the stone are only the size of a baby's fist, plus stones that can block magical spells, blocking the possibility for most creatures to pass through.
At the moment, Mu You can only go deep into the Ring Forest alone, find the leader of the savage clan, and ask him to order someone to move the stones here and reopen the passage.
Next, Mu You asked about the basic situation of the Savage Forest.
According to the savages, the Ring Forest is far more than just a 'forest', but a circular area that spans tens of thousands of kilometers.
What is the concept of tens of thousands of kilometers? We need to know that the diameter of the earth is only more than 12,000 kilometers, so we can see how large the area of Jie Lin is.
From the outside to the inside, the Ring Forest is divided into seven levels according to the biological habits and environmental changes, arranged in a circular shape. The closer to the level in the center of the Ring Forest, the stronger the physical strength of the creature, and the more lush the Ring Tree grows. , the stronger the suppression of divinity.
The gathering places of the savages are located on the sixth and seventh floors in the deepest part of the Ring Forest. The sixth floor is the residence of ordinary savages, and the seventh floor is the residence of high-ranking savages.
In addition, according to Muro, there is an eighth layer in the center of the seventh layer, but no one can step on it because it is a circular lake, located in the center of the entire ring forest, and it is also the place where the entire ancestors' faith is entrusted. Outsiders are never allowed to approach the holy land, and even the own tribe can only worship and pray near the lake during sacrificial festivals.
【Before leaving, the savage puts a stone into your hand. 】
["My mother's name is Sethia, and she is the best herbalist in the tribe. If you go to the tribe and can't see the tribe leader, take this stone and go to my mother. She will believe you... If she If you are still alive," the savage said. 】
Mu You took out the stone and looked at it, and found that it was just an ordinary stone without any divinity or energy.
On the surface of the stone, with a few strokes, a pattern of a round-headed man running holding a sunflower was carved.
Obviously the pattern itself has a special meaning. It is estimated that after Muro recovered his memory, he knew very well what kind of urine his fellow savages were. It is very likely that Mu You entered the savage tribe and it was difficult to meet the clan leader, so he stayed in advance. A backhand.
Mu You accepted the stone, transformed into a bat again, and traveled back to the Ring Forest.
Also coming with him was Ava. Since she was housed in a helmet that could be freely changed in size, she could also easily pass through stone gaps.
Returning to the Ring Forest, Mu You did not act in a hurry. He first sent the Black Angel, Mechanical Heart, Dragon Crystal and other components through the game in sequence.
Divine spells and props have been greatly weakened in the Ring Forest, and gods have to degrade into mortal bodies here. Mechanical armor has become the best combat auxiliary tool.
【Item is being transferred and will be delivered in about 9 minutes and 32 seconds...】
The delay in item transmission is much higher than expected. Items that used to be delivered instantly now take ten minutes to deliver.
And this is just transportation, assembling props also has the same amount of delay. That is to say, in the battle here, it is impossible to switch equipment. What is installed in the prop column can only be used in the battle.
Mu You waited patiently for a moment in front of the entrance, and soon everything was delivered.
Mu You originally thought that he could rely on the Yuanchu Armor to transform into Iron Man and kill everyone in the Ring Forest.
As a result, after assembling the Black Angel, he was greatly disappointed: Dragon Crystal could not be used here!
Because the concentration of divine energy in the Ring Forest is too low, the energy output from the dragon crystal will be diluted by the environment as soon as it appears, and cannot be transmitted into the armor at all.
To control the Black Angel here, the only way is to assemble the mechanical heart and then rely on its own energy to power it.
However, this little energy in his body can keep Ava running. It can't carry a huge energy-absorbing monster like Black Angel.
There was no other way, so Mu You had no choice but to put away the Black Angel and go on the road in mortal form.
“Ava, please search nearby areas at any time and notify me as soon as possible if there is any situation.”
Muyou brought Ava with him specifically for its investigative capabilities. After all, what can be seen from the perspective of text is very limited. There is an artificial intelligence to assist, which can greatly make up for the shortcomings of the game perspective.
【You are about to set off, Ava suddenly reminds you that a divine item was scanned at ten o'clock on the left front. 】
【You walk towards ten o'clock on the left, and a familiar blue light looms in front of you. 】
【You step forward and push aside the grass to check, and you find that it is an ancient soul-inducing lamp! 】
"Huh?"
Mu You didn’t expect that Ava’s prompt would be triggered just after he set out on the road, and what he found was a soul-inducing lamp.
So to speak, this place has been set foot on by the ancestors of the Fool before.
Same, after all, this space vortex is not far from Sky City. It is not impossible for someone to accidentally break into this place under the Fool's large-scale search.
However, no news of Jie Lin was sent back in the end, so the people who came in to open up the wasteland were probably blocked by the three huge rocks and unable to go back.
Fools have a lifespan limit. After so many years, if their lifespan cannot be replenished, they will probably end up like the magic medicine master, having died in another country...
【You light up the soul-inducing lamp in front of you. 】
Mu You sighed, lit the soul lamp, and set off on the road with his character.
【You pass over the surrounding trees and formally enter the forest. 】
【These tall cylindrical trees, each as thick as dozens of people hugging each other, extend straight into the sky, with their gray crowns towering into the clouds. 】
The dappled sunlight shines through the gaps between the trees. As you gradually go deeper into the forest, some small creatures hiding in the hidden places begin to emerge one after another. 】
['Pop!' Your footsteps crushed a dead branch. Several thin-bodied birds, like paper-painted birds folded from white paper, suddenly emerged from the white trunk of Jiemu, and flew deeper into the jungle as if frightened. , the body attached to other ring trees, and disappeared again. 】
[Without time to track the paper bird, you suddenly feel a numbness on the soles of your feet. When you look down, you see a group of soft-bodied creatures with long tentacles crawling past your shoes. As they pass you, they raise their tentacles and probe towards you. It emits weak vibrations, seeming to be communicating with you, trying to tell you something, but unfortunately you can't understand it...]
The ecology here is richer than expected. All kinds of small animals that have never been seen before continue to appear along the way.
Mu You observed carefully and found that most of these small creatures can still feel some divine aura. Many abilities that violate common sense are also exerted by divinity, but their physical strength is generally stronger than that of outside creatures of the same star level. many.
Just like the soft creatures under his feet, Mu You picked up one and kneaded it. He found that no matter how hard he squeezed it, he couldn't squeeze it to death. This thing would change its shape at will like plasticine. If he was pinched hard, he would spit a mouthful of venom on his fingers. on as a warning.
Mu You rubbed the light green venom on his fingers. It was not very toxic and the damage to him was almost negligible, but it did contain a faint trace of divinity.
Mu You put down the soft-bodied creature that he was annoyed by and continued on his way.
Various small creatures kept appearing along the road. Most of them were gray, white and black in color, perfectly hiding themselves in the environment. At this time, they appeared one after another. To him, they looked like a group of local tourists visiting a new species that had just arrived in the zoo. And he was the alien that was kept in the garden.
Fortunately, they are all small creatures with no attack power. They are just watching out of curiosity, and there are no stupid ones who come to attack, and Mu You is not too troublesome.
【"Pack!" A falling sound next to you caught your attention. 】
On a branch not far away, you see a group of ‘eggs’ with legs lining up to cross the branch. 】
All kinds of small creatures suddenly swarmed around and gathered around the rotten eggs. However, they did not immediately rush to feast, but consciously stayed one meter away and waited. ]【A few seconds later, you noticed that a cocoon formed on the surface of the ‘egg beast’, and a faint blue butterfly hatched out at a speed visible to the naked eye. 】
【After the small butterfly appeared, it quickly spread its wings and flew away, disappearing deep into the jungle. 】
When the butterfly disappeared, other surrounding creatures swarmed in, competing to eat the egg liquid and egg shells of the egg beast. 】
In the blink of an eye, the egg beast disappeared completely, and the ground was cleaned up, leaving only the cocoon that hatched the butterfly. 】
【This cocoon also quickly disappeared after losing its support. 】
The intelligence of these small creatures seems to be much higher than that of creatures of the same level in the outside world, and their actions are not entirely based on instinct.
Mu You was observing the ecology here with great interest, when the small animals around him were suddenly startled and all fled away.
Ava also immediately raised the alarm.
【“A large and highly aggressive beast is attacking from a few hundred meters away from the front left.”】
“Beast?” Mu You was stunned for a moment and didn’t pay much attention. The other creatures ran away, so he followed suit.
Mu You immediately controlled the character to move away from the place.
result…
"That creature is still chasing us. Its target is us. At our current speed, the probability of escape is only 14.3%." Ava warned. 】
“That means I can’t run away.”
Mu You decisively stopped the character, took out his god-slaying sword and prepared to fight.
The ground shook continuously, and a few seconds later, a one-horned rhinoceros, tens of meters tall, rushed out of the jungle, with colorful spots shining all over its body. In this world dominated by black, white and gray, it was extremely eye-catching. 】
[The rhinoceros discovered you, looked at the colorful colors on your body, roared angrily, raised its head high, and above the horn, the shadow of a giant hammer appeared. As the head fell to the ground, it hammered heavily on the ground. . 】
【A ground-breaking shock wave rushes towards you quickly. 】
【You released the Silent Domain, and the power of the shock wave was immediately greatly weakened, but the remaining energy still blasted you away. 】
【During this period, the rhinoceros kicks on the ground and rushes towards the direction where you landed. 】
【You swung your sword and unleashed a slashing attack, and a crescent sword slash took shape and flew across quickly, accurately hitting the rhino's forelimb, leaving a terrifying sword wound on its front leg. 】
【The rhinoceros was in pain, rolling over and falling to the ground while wailing, throwing up smoke and dust all the way. 】
【The rhinoceros quickly got up, raising its right front foot slightly, obviously unable to exert its strength, and looking at you with even more hatred...】
Mu You had seen this kind of rhinoceros before. It was called the hammer-headed rhinoceros. It got its name because its head could condense a hammer, and it was very powerful. The hammer on its head was said to be able to easily smash a mountain.
Fortunately, this kind of beast has a fragile skin and very weak defense, especially its four legs, which are like paper. As long as you find the right opportunity to sneak attack, it can easily lose its ability to move in a short time.
Muyou has killed many rhinos like this before.
However, the rhino in front of him was completely different from the hammer-headed rhino he had seen. Due to the influence of the Ring Forest, its hammer-head attack power was weakened a lot, but its defense was greatly enhanced!
He could stab the hammer-headed rhinoceros outside with a poisonous velvet knife, but now he used the god-killing artifact and divine power, but he only made a wound and couldn't even cut off the leg.
It can only be said that the creatures in the Ring Forest cannot be treated with the common sense of the outside world...
As he was thinking, the rhinoceros from the opposite side was charging towards him again, and Mu You quickly retreated to avoid it.
At this time, Ava reminded him that the little creatures that had escaped just appeared again, hiding nearby and watching him from a distance.
This scene is the same as when the 'egg beast' died just now. It is estimated that these little things are waiting for him to die, and then come over to rub the remaining body parts.
Mu You didn't pay attention to these small animals, and he controlled the character to swing his knife repeatedly, constantly causing wounds on the rhinoceros.
No matter how thick-skinned and thick-skinned this rhinoceros is, it can't withstand such a torment.
Soon, after Mu You slashed dozens of swords, the rhinoceros let out a mournful cry and collapsed to the ground, dying.
【You have spent a lot of effort and finally killed this giant beast, but the energy in your body has been almost exhausted. 】
【Seeing that you actually killed the rhinoceros, the surrounding little creatures were frightened and fled away. 】
【This mutant hammer-headed rhinoceros is at the top of the food chain at the first level of the forest. Even it can kill you. Other small animals naturally dare not mess with you. 】
“It turns out to be the top of the food chain, no wonder...”
Mu You breathed a sigh of relief. Even though he killed the rhinoceros without any injuries, he was actually not relaxed at all.
Using that beheading knife also requires energy. In order to kill the rhinoceros, he directly used up all the energy. At this time, if another offensive creature comes, he has no means to deal with it.
Fortunately, this thing is already at the top of the first level. Mu You killed it to establish his authority, and the watching creatures in the distance did not dare to offend him easily.
【You noticed a familiar cocoon formed on the top of the dead rhinoceros carcass in front of you. 】
The cocoon hatched quickly, and a blue butterfly, much larger than the one just now, emerged from the cocoon, spread its wings and took off from the rhinoceros. 】
"Huh?"
Mu You was stunned. He thought that this kind of insect egg butterfly was a unique phenomenon after the death of the "egg beast". Did all the creatures here produce butterflies after death?
“Is this some kind of trophy?”
Thinking about it, Mu You subconsciously controlled the character to chase the butterfly.
You raise your hand to catch the butterfly, but the butterfly is invisible and passes through your hands like a phantom. Its blue wings sway, carrying a string of blue light, flying deep into the forest and disappearing. 】
On the rhinoceros carcass, the insect shell that hatched a butterfly gave off a faint fragrance. You try to touch the insect shell and find that the insect shell has an entity. Do you want to pick it? 】
Mu You was not in a hurry to choose. This place was full of strange things, and he just noticed that when those small animals were eating the egg beast, they seemed to have deliberately avoided the insect shell. In the end, only the insect shell was left uneaten. Poisonous or cursed or something.
After waiting for about half a minute, a new prompt popped up.
【Because you have not picked for a long time, the insect shells will automatically shatter and disappear. 】
“Will it disappear if you don’t pick it?”
Confirming this, Mu You went back in time and prepared to pick it up to see the situation.
Now it is much more convenient for him to backtrack. He does not need to press the watch anymore. As long as he makes a thought, the pocket watch will automatically respond to him, and he can go back as many seconds as he wants. For some simple options, he does not need to wait ten seconds every time. Long.
【As time goes by, you picked the insect shells in time. 】
【You obtained ‘high-quality biological insect slough’*1】
As the shell of the rhinoceros was removed by you, the rhinoceros' body suddenly shriveled up like a deflated balloon, turning into a puddle of black scorched dust in the blink of an eye, blending into the black soil and disappearing. 】
"I see…"
Mu You somewhat understood.
This kind of insect shell will disappear quickly if left alone, but the body of the creature can be preserved. If the insect shell is removed, the insect shell can be retained, at the cost of the creature's body withering and disappearing.
In short, you can only choose between insect shells and biological remains. The reason why those small animals deliberately avoid touching insect shells is to eat flesh and blood. (End of chapter)
