Chapter 527 Stone Heart and Tree Man
"There are energy fluctuations in that place, and they are different from the energy fluctuations of mutants. They may be humans!"
Human?
Listening to Luo Xi's voice, Sean's first reaction was Stone Heart Man.
In the game, the Stonehearts are a race that lives in a cavity in the background setting. Their appearance is roughly the same as that of humans, and they have many special abilities. However, they only exist in the setting in the game.
However, in this world, Sean has already met the Stone-Hearted Man. When he was in the Ilia Municipal District of the Empire, Jude, the governor of the Ilia Administrative Region, used the special ability of a Stone-Hearted Man to complete a sacrifice.
This underground race, which will self-destruct when stimulated, was treated as a powerful bomb in the first scene.
However, according to the setting, Stonehearts are relatively rare, and because the living environment in the hollow is not excellent, the development speed of this race is also very slow. It is not as good as the Hongchao tribe, a race that was forced to migrate to the mountains to settle. no the same.
After all, the Hongchao clan has some information left over from before the doomsday, which gives them some knowledge of the outside world. However, the Stone Heart people, this race is a pure primitive tribe. They appeared in the cavity before the doomsday. The race Their cognition, knowledge level, technical level, etc. are all very limited.
Otherwise, Jude, the governor of the Ilia Grand Administrative Region, would not be able to trick the only stone-hearted girl who had ever appeared into blowing herself up.
However, according to the previous situation, the small number of Stoneheart people should gather in the cavity near the Ilia administrative area. After all, a primitive race does not have the ability to migrate on a large scale, and they should not migrate to Paradise City. That's right.
With a lot of doubts and a lot of bugs on their shoulders, Sean and Luo Xi rushed towards the direction of the energy fluctuations.
The two were extremely fast and arrived in the direction of the energy fluctuations in a short time.
There was an unequal battle going on there. The party with a large number of people and besieging the enemy looked no different from ordinary humans, but they would use the special ability to sneak into the ground when fighting. They were obviously the Stoneheart people.
The one on the other side who struggled to hold on but couldn't hold on for long was also a foreigner... and an old acquaintance of Sean.
His expression became strange, and Luo Xi also looked suspicious.
"The tree people... have invaded the underground? Or is it the underground of Paradise City?"
Yes, there were more than a dozen tree people being besieged.
Sean did not answer Roche's question, but carefully looked at both sides of the battle.
The people of Stone Heart cooperated well, and their numbers were far superior to the enemy. It was a completely suppressed situation. The strange thing was that the people of Stone Heart did not want to kill each other. They seemed to have been pursuing the pursuit of capturing these trees alive - if it was When the leading team of tree people invades, primitive races like the stone heart people will not be polite. At most, one person will be left alive for questioning, which is not like capturing them all alive now.
More importantly, where did the tree people come in?
The battle did not last long, and the stubborn resistance of the tree men had no effect. As a stone fell, the last tree man was stunned.
The stone-hearted people quickly stepped forward and used the vines of a special plant to tightly bind all the unconscious tree people - tree people are a race that is friendly to plants, and vines are easy to use, but The stone-hearted people didn't care, and just skillfully carried the tree people on their shoulders.
The leader, a stone-hearted man, was a muscular man. He glanced at the glowing mushroom tree and pinched his fingers, as if he was calculating time using primitive methods.
"It should be almost done this time, go back first." He ordered.
"Okay."
The Stoneheart people just carried the captured tree men and walked towards the other direction of the cave. Luo Xi looked surprised, and she said: "Looking at it like this, it doesn't seem like this is the first time this group of people have done this?"
Sean nodded strangely: "Yes, they are all skilled workers. I feel that these tree people probably did not invade the underground, but were lured here..."
"Did that group of people do the seduction?" Luo Xi said in surprise. She didn't know the Shixin people yet.
After briefly introducing the Stoneheart race, Sean motioned for Luo Xi to follow him.
The changes that occurred near Paradise City are likely related to the sudden appearance of the Stoneheart race.
The tree people clan lost their tree king Wanmu. This evil god who served the World Tree and called him his mother tried to be the first to come to the world, but was finally killed by Sean in front of countless evil gods.
However, although the tree people suffered heavy losses, their invasion of the mainland did not stop. At the Sunken Port near Paradise City, tree people began to land intermittently a long time ago.
Sunken Port had already reacted, because Paradise City had already had a good deal with them, and some of the Golden Ghost's personnel also participated in the strangulation of the tree people near Sunken Port.
Sean had been wondering before that there were too few tree people landing near the sunken port. He thought it was because the tree people's hiding ability had been strengthened again, so he specifically asked his men to be more careful.
Now it seems that those tree people who disappeared may have been lured here...
However, the Sunken Port is also quite far away from Paradise City. He and Luo Xi calculated when they descended from the inside of the big crack to the cavity. This is a sloping downward passage, and the direction of the slope is exactly the direction of the Sunken Port, but Still quite a distance.
Even if a peak king-level person wanted to travel quickly, it would probably take him a day and a night.
How did these stone-hearted people lure the tree people here?
The most important thing is, why did they arrest these tree people?
Stoneheart led the way, while Sean and Luo Xi moved forward hidden in the shadows behind.
The ecology of the underground cavity is completely different from that on the ground. Various strange plants occupy every corner of the cave. Mushroom trees that emit white light are not everywhere. Some places are completely dark, and there is a burst of light emitting from them. The energy fluctuations in the formation surprised even Sean.
The Stoneheart people were obviously very familiar with this place. They skillfully avoided some dangerous areas. Not long after, a huge underground plain appeared in front of them.
At its edge, in a simple camp built with rocks and stone pillars, another group of Stone-Hearted people came forward.
"Why do you feel like these stone-hearted people haven't lived here for long?" Luo Xi asked doubtfully.
Sean also nodded. The traces of life in this place are not obvious, but looking at the scale of the surroundings, there are not many Stone Heart people, and they even exceed the number of the Rainbow Nest clan.
This shows that the Shixin people moved to this place not long ago.
After a few glances, Sean took the lead and followed the group of Stonehearts carrying the tree men.
