Chapter 113 The mysterious white-haired girl
The stars in the night sky are bright and shining.
Summer has just passed, and the autumn wind is blowing through, with some slight heat, blowing the weeds, making a rustling sound, the leaves are falling, and the green and yellow are connected together.
In the dense jungle, the big trees stand upright, like rows of loyal guards. Looking down from the sky, they look like bald heads. In the vast forest, there is an open space that looks very obvious.
The entrance to the dark cave is strange and quiet. With this place as the center of the circle, a circle of ravines has been dug out of the land within a radius of thirty meters, and clean water is poured into it, forming an artificial isolation zone, somewhat similar to a moat.
Inside the water circle, along the direction of the cave entrance, a road is paved with stone slabs in an orderly manner, crossing the river bank and becoming the only passage into the water circle.
This is a brand new building that was updated after the territory was upgraded to version 3.0. Of course, its function is not just for beauty.
As one of the buildings generated by the system, the water circle can be used as a moat, surrounding the entrance of the cave. This also means that the sphere of influence of the goblin territory will not only be underground from now on.
Instead, a diversified special structure has been formed with the underground city as the core and the above-ground buildings as ancillaries.
As the territory continues to upgrade, the scope of the "moat" formed by the water circle will continue to expand, and eventually an above-ground town can be formed that is as prosperous as humans.
At that time, the above-ground towns will be the surface body, and the underground city where Gu'an is located will be the core of the brain. This will not only expand the scope of harvesting energy, but also make the industrial building planning in the territory more diverse.
At the same time, these water circles also have the function of protecting the territory and fighting against foreign enemies.
For example, now.
With the rustling of the grass, a monster with black hair walked out of the woods in the darkness of night.
This is a mutant werewolf that can walk upright. Under the moonlight, the hideous sinews are clearly visible.
After it came out of the woods, it walked straight towards the moat on the outskirts of the territory like a puppet on strings. Its scarlet eyes were numb and lifeless, and there was even a trace of strange fluctuations in them.
Mutant werewolves are a medium-sized monster race. The lowest adult level is above level 23. They are famous for their speed and agility.
The woods were separated from the moat by a large open space, about a hundred meters away. The mutant werewolf was extremely fast. In just a few blinks, he was already on the verge of the city.
It came to the only passage and stepped onto the stone bridge. After taking only two steps, the water on both sides suddenly set off a wild wave, rushing up from the ravine, turning into two big hands, waving to launch a surprise attack.
Seeing this, the mutant werewolf quickly stopped and leaned back, preparing to retreat. However, the big hand formed by the water flow was faster, and it was caught by the water flow before it could make any more moves.
The turbulent water flow now burst out with power capable of tearing apart fine steel. The muscular mutant werewolf struggled desperately, but could not escape at all. He could only let out a wailing sound, and was torn in half and dragged into the water. , disappeared.
The water surged upwards, slapping on the stone bridge, and even the blood stains were washed away.
Under the moonlight, the water surface was soft, and everything returned to silence again, as if nothing had happened.
[Congratulations to the host for killing a level 29 human demon pet! 】
[Energy gained: 800]
[Total current energy: 1400]
Deep in the cave, Gu An was directing the work of the fishing goblins when he suddenly heard a system prompt.
"Level 29 human familiar."
"Is it finally here?"
Three days have passed since I learned that "Toheti wants to rescue Tiya".
During these three days, Gu'an sent ghost goblins to patrol day and night. As a result, the adventurers did not encounter them, but they caught a lot of wild boars and rabbits.
The flowers I waited for all withered and bloomed again. I looked forward to the stars and the moon, but failed to look forward to the intruder.
Gu An originally thought that the adventurers who rescued Tiya would probably die when they encountered an army of monsters on the way, and he was still a little disappointed about this.
However, the theory of relativity proposed by Saint Kong is very good. If you have hope, you will be disappointed, and if you don't have hope, you will be surprised.
Isn’t it a surprise that it is delivered to your door?
A level 29 human familiar can send out a scout with such strength. It doesn’t take much to think about it. It must be the long-awaited platinum adventure group.
Gu An, who was originally gloomy because his employees were fishing, suddenly became excited and summoned all the goblins who were working to assemble quickly.
…
at the same time.
In the forest outside.
"Lava's level 29 battle pet actually died like this?"
"This territory is really scary. No wonder even the Elf Saint has fallen."
In the grass, four men and one woman looked at the direction of the goblin territory at the same time. One of them, a skinny man, was a little surprised by the death of the werewolf.
"It's really weird."
"What the hell is that old man, Sage Toheti doing?"
"Didn't he say that those goblins were just level 20 rabble?"
"It has only been a short time, but it has become so powerful. If we hadn't known that the Elf Saint had been captured, we would have suffered a big loss."
The man named Rava was short and a dwarf.
He was sitting on the shoulders of a troll, followed by three monsters of different shapes. The eyes of these monsters were the same as the werewolf just now, numb and stiff, not like living creatures at all.
This is a method only available to the beast masters of the Cang Yue Kingdom. Its principle is to cut off part of the monster's brain and then fill it with special formation patterns. Although it is extremely cruel, the battle pet created in this way has no thinking and is completely It obeys its master's orders and is a very efficient killing tool.
Because the surgery is very difficult and the formation materials are rare, the price of each battle pet is very expensive.
Having lost a level 29 werewolf, Lava's expression was quite regretful at this time, and his tone of voice was somewhat complaining.
"us……"
"Walk……?"
Next to Rava, stood a white-haired girl, about 160cm tall, who looked very small in front of the tall troll.
She was clearly going to defeat monsters, but not only did she not carry any weapons on her body, she even had leather restraints engraved with special runes on her wrists and ankles.
Judging from the image alone, it is already very weird. What is even more incomprehensible is that the voice of the white-haired girl is obviously very beautiful, but the words used when speaking are concise and extremely abnormal. It is almost like a mentally retarded person. It is a complete pity. That delicate face.
"Elder Buch, what do you think?"
"Sage Toheti's information contains serious errors."
"According to the magic power fluctuation just now, the outer defense of this cave should be enough to resist intruders below level 32."
"You can imagine the strength of those goblins, they are definitely very difficult to deal with."
"Has the training of Primordial One been completed?"
"If she can't use all her strength, I'm afraid we just won't be able to save the princess."
The white-haired girl's words did not attract the attention of anyone present, as they seemed to regard her as a ball of air.
After a while, a man with a scar broke the silence.
He looked at the one-armed old man leaning against the tree, his expression obviously worried.
In order to save the princess, these old members of the Kingdom traveled thousands of miles, and were hunted down by monsters of all races along the way. They narrowly escaped death before arriving in Aiwen Town.
It turned out that the goblin's strength was actually much higher than what was reported in the intelligence.
Could it be that all these years of forbearance are really going to be in vain?
Thinking of this, the scarred man couldn't hide the look of disappointment on his face, and his eyes towards the one-armed old man became more and more nervous.
"A magician has appeared among the goblins. The fallen man who kidnapped the princess has become an apostle of the devil. It is not incomprehensible that he suddenly became stronger."
"Sage Toheti is trapped in the imperial city and is monitored day and night by a group of rebels. It is not easy to report the news to us, and it is really helpless if there is any deviation."
"Lava, please stop blaming him."
The one-armed old man stood up from the tree and walked to the front of the crowd. He first comforted the beast master Lava who was in pain after losing his monster. Then he looked at the entrance of the goblin territory and continued with a calm face: "Original No. 1 The training is mostly completed.”
"Although I still can't use my full strength, as long as the level of those goblins does not exceed 50, they will still not be the opponent of the original No. 1."
Hearing this, the scarred man's depressed expression finally became excited. Rava sat on the troll's shoulder and stared at the white-haired girl with eyes that were almost crazy.
"Wonderful, wonderful!"
"You old guys from the Purple Moon Kingdom are really on the verge of understanding the technology of artificial humans?"
"This trip is really worth it. Being able to see artificial war pets makes my life worthwhile!"
Lava clapped vigorously, smiled ferociously, and combined with his dwarf figure, he looked like a talking goblin.
As the only "Cang Yue Kingdom" adventurer in the team, the reason why he was willing to betray his motherland and follow the one-armed old man to Aiwen Town was not to save Tiya, but to take a look at the "Beast Controller" The ultimate pursuit - artificial human battle pet.
That is, the white-haired girl in front of me who speaks a little "mentally retarded"!
"Elder Buhe, you are true."
"Since the original No. 1 has almost completed the experiment, why didn't you let her take action when she was attacked by the monster scout army before?"
"We arrived in Aiwen Town so late. If the princess is really killed by the Elf Saint, wouldn't it be a big deal?"
The skinny man was also very excited at this time. He came to the side of the white-haired girl and turned up and down in a circle. His eyes, which were almost dry, now wished they could burst into tears.
"us……"
"Walk……?"
The white-haired girl who was originally regarded as airless suddenly attracted everyone's attention.
Facing the skinny man's direct gaze, she just stared ahead blankly. There was no joy or sadness in her empty eyes, as if she was indifferent to everything in the outside world, and she was just asking for mission instructions repeatedly.
"Do you think I don't want to activate the Original One earlier?"
"The experiment has not been completely completed. The original No. 1 is still in an unstable state. The formation pattern controlling her can only last for half an hour. After the formation ends, it will automatically fall into a deep sleep."
"So how can we waste such a precious opportunity until there is a critical moment?"
The one-armed old man turned around and shook his head helplessly as he spoke, his gray beard swaying from side to side.
The Original No. 1 is a secret weapon created by the high priest using forbidden means in order to regain the Purple Moon Kingdom. It contains the crystallization of the wisdom of countless sages.
In this, the "secret" was even used.
If the original No. 1 can be thoroughly researched, the restoration of the Purple Moon Kingdom can be completed even without the need for a princess.
Unfortunately, this world-changing research was too difficult, and so many girls were sacrificed to create such a half-finished product.
As an innovator among the old school, the one-armed old man shook his head and sighed, but actually contained a huge confusion about the failure of the experiment and the fear of a new path for the kingdom.
"The devil has not yet fully awakened, and his power to affect the world is limited."
"No matter how much its apostle's strength is improved, it is absolutely impossible to break through from level 20 to level 40 in such a short period of time."
"Since Yuanchu No. 1 was able to lift the seal for half an hour, is it enough for her to do it alone to save the princess?"
Although the scarred man was excited, he had not lost his mind yet.
After all, he is not like the beast master Lava, a lunatic who is willing to die to see "art".
From the perspective of a rational person, based on what the one-armed old man said just now, it is obvious that letting the white-haired girl enter the cave alone is the most worry-free and labor-saving method.
However, this proposal was quickly rejected by the one-armed old man.
"Can't."
"The array pattern in the brain of Original No. 1 is too violent. After the seal is released, I must suppress it at all times. Once it exceeds the range of 500 meters, she will completely lose control."
After hearing this, the scarred man nodded seriously on the surface, but secretly whispered in his heart, "Does this mean that the experiment is mostly completed?"
People who don't understand taboo experiments naturally don't know how difficult it is to develop artificial human battle pets. Knowledgeable people like beast master Lava don't care at all.
It sat on the neck of the troll, folded its arms, and said sarcastically: "Knight Brondor, you are really getting lazy!" "You are protected by level 50 androids, and you are not needed to enter the cave. Does your back hurt from fighting or watching a show?”
"You're so lazy, why don't you just stay outside alone. Anyway, I want to see with my own eyes how androids fight."
Facing Lava's cynicism, the scarred man responded with a cold face and the most vicious way: "Of course my waist hurts."
"It's not like you, a little dwarf, sit on the troll's head every day and don't even know what tiredness is."
Being poked at the pain point, Lava immediately became furious and hit the troll on the head angrily: "What did you say?"
"Say it again!"
Seeing that the two people who had always been at odds were about to start fighting again, the one-armed old man sternly shouted: "That's enough!"
"When the princess is rescued, there will be plenty of time for you to argue!"
"Shut your mouths now, put on your radiant stone hat, and get ready to sneak into the goblin territory!"
As an elder with a high status, the one-armed old man's words held great weight. Under his scolding, Lava and Scar Man both suppressed their anger and did not dare to say anything more.
After appeasing everyone's emotions, the one-armed old man briefly arranged a battle plan, then put on his radiant stone hat, commanded everyone, and officially marched towards the Goblin territory.
…
Boom boom boom!
The beast master Lava opened the way, and the troll waved his big stick, easily scattering the water attack. After crossing the stone bridge, everyone entered the dark cave in an orderly manner.
This scene, through the [Lord of the Cave] skill, was transmitted to Gu An's eyes without reservation.
[Level 37 troll. 】
[Level 38 swordsman. 】
[Level 37 monk. 】
[Level 40 magician. 】
[This camp is really luxurious. 】
Through the system panel, Gu An could clearly see the information about the beast master Lava and others, and he kept praising Toheti in his heart for being such a good old man, who actually gave such a large energy gift package, and completely lived up to his expectations.
However, just when he was happy, he opened the information panel of the white-haired girl according to the order, and then he couldn't help but frown.
【Artificial Human】
[Level in sealed state: 37]
[Level after unblocking: 50]
[Introduction to Artificial Man: A taboo doll created by the power of the goddess. It is in an incomplete state, has no thoughts, and can only act according to orders. 】
The power of the goddess.
Emergency doll?
What crazy things are those old winter melons in the Purple Moon Kingdom studying?
Gu An was a little surprised, not only because of the level 50 strength of the white-haired girl after she was unblocked, but also because of the unfamiliar word "artificial human", which was also a key factor.
Because, in the original game setting, there were no taboo dolls, let alone "artificial humans".
【This is going to be troublesome. 】
[What should I do with level 50 dolls? 】
Gu An stared into the distance blankly, completely lost in thought.
After the territory is upgraded to version 2.0, the system panel can not only see the level information of the intruder, but also check whether the person carries any [magic props].
Originally, with his rich experience in game mechanics, he was able to deal with whatever special props the adventurers who came to save Tia had on them.
However, this level 50 smart doll has completely broken the common sense of the game and is fundamentally different from various [magic props].
People make mistakes and horses make mistakes.
Britney previously provided incorrect information.
Even Gu An, who has always been clever and calculating, felt a little headache at this moment, as if he had returned to the mood when he had just traveled to this world and heard the system broadcast about the invasion of the "Saint Girl".
[Why does everything involving the goddess become so troublesome? 】
The goddess and the demon are completely two uncontrollable factors. They are simply bugs among bugs.
[Teleport Block] does not support the use of the current territory.
It was impossible to escape.
The artificial humans have followed the intruders into the cave, and now they have to quickly figure out how to deal with these intruders.
Gu An rubbed the tip of his eyebrows, thinking of the introduction on the system panel, and then his eyes suddenly lit up.
No thinking?
Will you only follow orders?
What if there is no order?
Thinking of this, Gu An raised the corners of his mouth again,
…
——
In the winding and twisting passage.
The radiant stone cap emits a soft light, dispelling the darkness and illuminating the surroundings of the white-haired girl and her group.
According to the map provided by Toheti, the one-armed old man led everyone to the third passage smoothly.
While slowly advancing, Lava sat on top of the troll's head, holding his head in his hands, looking at the rocky wall, and muttering impatiently.
"What's going on?"
"After walking for so long, why haven't I met a single goblin?"
"Could it be that all the monsters here have been killed by the elven saint a long time ago?"
As a fanatical alchemist, Rava is the one who is most eager to see the power of the Original One, and is even willing to die for it.
But the Purple Moon Kingdom spent several generations of efforts and accumulated countless resources to create the only half-finished artificial human being, the white-haired girl.
To the one-armed old man who wanted to restore the royal family, she was probably more precious than life, second only to the value of the princess.
Before leaving, the one-armed old man had given instructions that unless it was confirmed that the goblins were too powerful to resist, they would never activate the Original One easily.
If the Elf Saint really kills all the monsters, or kills them miserably, the next time she sees "Original No. 1" take action, I don't know, it will have to wait until the end of the year of the monkey.
Lava didn't see any goblin along the way, and he couldn't help but feel worried and disappointed.
"It's definitely a little too peaceful."
"But haven't we already inquired clearly before? Those remaining soldiers who did not participate in the last crusade said that the Elf Saint never came out after entering the cave."
"So she must have died here."
The skinny man rubbed his sharp chin and analyzed the current situation thoughtfully.
If that arrogant elf saint really killed all the goblins here, then the princess would either be eliminated by the way, or she would also take her as a pet.
No matter what kind of outcome, it is a situation they cannot accept.
However, according to the current information analysis, the Elf Saint's hope of winning in the crusade is almost zero.
What a pity for such a proud daughter of heaven. A person like her who is blessed by the goddess will eventually become the world's top powerhouse sooner or later. She didn't expect to die like this at the hands of the devil's apostle.
"We sneaked into the cave so secretly, and we haven't seen a single sentry or scout until now. This is very abnormal."
"If nothing unexpected happens, those goblins must have been seriously injured in the battle with the Elf Saint, so they have no time to worry about patrolling."
The one-armed old man actually showed joy at this time.
Normal monster lairs will have sentries or scouts patrolling at all times to keep an eye on the movements of intruders.
What's more, this is the territory of the Demon God's Apostle, and such low-level mistakes will definitely not occur inexplicably.
As a result of the current situation, those goblins were probably still recovering from their injuries, so they had no time to worry about guarding against foreign enemies.
Since the elven saint's current strength can severely injure the goblins, then the mission of rescuing the princess does not require the intervention of the original No. 1 at all.
Being able to retain the precious number of uses of the Original No. 1, the one-armed old man was naturally extremely happy.
[Who among these people is the one who controls the forbidden doll? 】
Gu An used the [Lord of the Cave] skill to eavesdrop on the intruder's conversation, but still could not identify the key person who needed to be killed.
It seems that PlanB is now needed.
Through a message, he ordered Aaliya to act according to the plan.
"Damn it!"
"You obviously don't want to listen to that bastard, but why can't you control your body?"
Alia is a dangerous person.
There was no room for error in this mission. In order to prevent her from causing trouble, Gu An specially used the [Master-Servant Contract] to issue mandatory orders.
With her body completely out of control, Alia stood in the darkness, holding the [Sacred Feather of Light] in her hand. She pulled the bow to the full string with great reluctance, and shot a brilliant arrow with all her strength.
With the blessing of the exclusive weapon [Bright Holy Feather], although this arrow is not a goddess skill, its power is still quite terrifying.
The arrow emitted light several times brighter than the radiance stone, and burst out of the depths of the dark cave. The strong force set off a gust of wind, causing the bells to ring continuously.
"Big man, stop me!"
Rawa was walking at the front. After seeing a bright light emerging from the depths of the passage, he immediately ordered the troll to launch defense.
boom!
Although the arrows emitting golden light were powerful, Aria was behind in level after all. The troll swung his stick and swung it forward, but he still successfully blocked the terrifying light arrows.
However, because the weapon held by the monster was too crude in front of the [Bright Holy Feather], although the light arrow was blocked, the stick in the troll's hand also exploded completely, making a loud noise.
"Is this the arrow of the Elf Saint?"
"What a ghost!"
"What charm does that fallen man have that can make the elven saint, who has always been arrogant, surrender to him?"
The only person in this world who can shoot golden arrow feathers is the saint of the elves.
The scarred man recognized the true identity of the attacker, but he never expected that the first enemy he encountered was not a goblin, but a long-missing elven saint!
Surrender to the devil's apostle?
Surrender to the devil who forced himself to sign a master-servant contract?
What a joke!
The scarred man's shock hit the most humiliating pain point. This time, there was no need to be forced by the "master-servant contract". Aria's expression was so cold that she pulled the [Bright Holy Feather] and fired several bright shots in succession. Sharp arrow.
【Jiejiejiejie! 】
Along with a new round of flying light arrows, three goblins also walked out of the shadows, and the holy light sprinkled on their faces, but it still could not purify the ferocious smiles on their faces...
