Chapter 663 Chapter 60. The Sphinx's Shipwreck and the True Mirror
The eternal life gives Skeleton King enough time to do what he wants to do, such as pursuing knowledge. But unlike the lich, it did not become a prisoner of knowledge due to the emotion of annihilation.
It will still be curious, eager, and retain some of its physical senses.
Both the weirdness and the magic mirror aroused Skeleton King's curiosity.
Looking at the Skeleton King who couldn't wait to return to the tomb to study, Annan had no choice but to make the decision: "Then let's ask the locals about the Sphinx sunken ship first."
The weirdos capture a few hapless gold diggers. These vultures are neither good nor bad. Annan told them to answer the questions and let them go. As for the outstanding performers...
"I will give you a decent job."
Let Annan take out the money from his pocket and think Don't even think about it.
It’s just that there are no locals among these gold diggers, and they don’t know about it, so Annan asked them to go back to the camp to inquire.
It seemed that he couldn't believe that he was let go by a being who could drive weird things. Two gold diggers actually came back to inquire about the news.
The Sphinx is a big ship. Different from the common ferry boats in Swan Lake, it is a merchant ship, carrying rich and famous people sailing around Swan Lake. It is considered the prototype of a passenger ship... During the crisis in Yiwen City, it set out with a group of wealthy people, but an accident occurred. . Only a few survivors climbed up from the lake, and no one saw it after that. It must have sunk in the Swan Lake.
After confirming that the Sphinx Shipwreck does exist, it’s time to find where it is.
At this time Annan saw two gold diggers looking at him with flattery and expectation.
Oh, let’s reward them first.
"You have two choices. The first one is that I have some industries in Huadu that are in urgent need of employees. The salary there is generous, and if you perform well, you will have the opportunity to become a resident of Liberty City."
"Where's the second one?" A gold digger said cautiously: "I don't mean anything else, I just...want to know."
As for whether what they were thinking about was "What kind of backwater is Liberty City?" "Isn't Liberty City a nest of weirdos?" I don't know...
"The second is that I set you free."
What the hell, where did this miser come from?
The two gold diggers disagreed, but still chose the first one. There is not much oil and water left in Wenwen City, and even if you dig out a silver coin, you risk being eaten by weirdos.
"You will be grateful for today's decision."
There are obviously no survivors in the southern countries and gold prospector camps. In addition to fleeing to the towns in the south, a large number of survivors in the Lost City fled to the southern towns. The nearest northern city-state, Istrat, is where Annan came from - Huadu.
Most of them are rich and nobles. Many of the Scarlet Princess's banquet that Annan attended that day came from Lost City. And they were also passengers who had money to escape on the Sphinx.
Since the magic mirror had been certified by the Skeleton King, Annan asked the Magic Mirror for the list of survivors of the Sphinx in Huadu, and then borrowed it A skeleton carriage led the burnt girl and two guys named "Natsu" and "Abian" away from the Lost Area.
When the two gold diggers thought they were going to be killed and silenced, Annan opened the portal to Huadu.
He first told the clerk who was watching the warehouse that these two people were new employees and asked them to take them for inspection first and then arrange work.
The two gold diggers were frightened by Annan's spell to randomly open the portal to Huadu, and they promised not to leak the secret.
Annan doesn't care. In two months, everyone will know when he returns to Liberty City with something strange.
Klein arrived with two minutes left in the portal. Annan handed her the list and asked her to find survivors and map the wreckage of the Sphink.
“Did the Scarlet Princess agree to form an alliance?”
"The problem now is a bit complicated... I'll tell you when I get back." Annan couldn't explain why he ran from the Scarlet Princess to the Princess in a short time.
"Hurry up and find the people on the list. I will come back to you tomorrow."
"Okay."
Annan glanced at the green forest and went back to the lifeless one. The Lost Zone. It will take some time in Huadu, and Annan plans to complete the "businessman's" commission first.
A branch from another world should make it easier for him to face the monster in the lake.
The weirdos were driven to the outskirts of the tomb. Annan and the Skeleton King came to the depths. It looked at Annan: "Do you want to give it a try?"
"No, it's a waste of time."
Annan did remember the steps of the magic circle, but if he didn't make a few mistakes, it would be unworthy of his warlock talent.
The Skeleton King only took three minutes to set up the magic circle, and then the gray mist emerged, and the businessman with tentacles and red light restrained by gray robes appeared.
"I found the source of the strangeness."
The businessman froze for a moment and grunted.
"I'm recording." Skeleton King translated.
Annan told the merchant the answer he got from the princess, and then stared at it nervously... After all, it was just a simple story of "the power of other worlds spread from the world gate of Lost City", Not worth a world twig at all.
However, the businessman still believed that the commission was completed, and the surging gray mist lifted up a branch from another world.
It was no different from the dead branches that Annan saw outside. It was neither sacred nor ordinary... But when Annan tried to put the leaves of the tree from another world on the branches, they blended into one, as if they were growing on it. .
"How should I feed it?"
Annan asked, Da De should not be good at taking care of plants from other worlds...
"Any place where plants can grow, And human nature will catalyze its growth. "
The weird body is rich in human nature, which means using weirdness as its fertilizer... Fortunately, it can grow normally, but it will take time and I'm afraid the dragons will feel it. Long...
"I also want to entrust you with something."
Annan knows one thing. Even if the merchants are not the dead world behind the world gate, they are inseparable from them: "Can you provide a weird body?"< br>
"The powerful and weird body..." Annan pulled the monsters in front of the magic circle to give an example, "A weird thing that is more powerful than the sum of them."
The businessman gave a solution that Annan could not satisfy. For the price, Skeleton King's wealth is barely enough, but it's not worth it at all.
“Why is it so expensive?”
The merchant replied that hunting powerful monsters was not an easy task.
"The businessman calls it an 'evil spirit'. I think even in its world, it is an existence that is difficult to provoke."
"Evil spirit? It can resist several forbidden spells. ?”
Annan didn’t believe that the monster in the lake could defeat his ancestors, but he still said: It’s totally worthless.
When the businessman left, a small wooden box rolled out of the gray mist.
The businessman said it was a friendly gift based on Annan completing the commission. Open it, and merchants can appear without a teleportation array - but only in places filled with weird auras.
"Take it, even I don't have such a token." The Skeleton King said.
