Chapter 1140: The Flesh Giant
What caught Leo's eyes was a flesh and blood giant. This flesh and blood giant was lying under the city. The flesh and blood on his body was constantly squirming and expanding like maggots. The giant's body was the main body of Odolin city. Every street in the city,
Every house is integrated with the giant's flesh and blood, and it feels like he will come alive at any time and swallow all the living creatures in the city.
However, the assassin flesh giant is bound by countless chains with Turing roots attached to the surface, and these chains are like conduits, guiding the flesh and blood constantly produced on his body to the surroundings, integrating into the earth, forming
The open-pit mines in the mountains around Odolin are absorbed, and the surrounding trees and plants are also absorbing the flesh and blood, which makes their growth very amazing, not much worse than the growth of the trees in the Black Forest.
What made Leo even more incredible was that he seemed to know this giant who was bound and assimilated with the earth, because after comparing the characteristics of each bone on the other person's body, he was almost certain that the giant in front of him who transformed into Odolin should be the giant.
In the afterimage of time, he saw the leader of the giants who led his tribe to fight against the Weiya fleet.
Although it is somewhat incredible that the giant's body has assimilated with the earth, considering that the giants on Yam Island also turned into the hills of the island after their death, this should be regarded as the traditional destination of the giants after their death.
However, Odolin's giant seems to be different from those giants that have completely died and turned into hills, because he has not completely died, and his bones and flesh are still in some way that he has not yet seen through.
It remained active, but this activity gave him the feeling that it was full of malice like the germs and cancer cells in the human body, and it also continued to grow like cancer cells.
It is no exaggeration to say that if there were not those chains to guide the growing flesh and blood to merge with the surrounding earth, sooner or later the growing flesh and blood on this giant would turn him into an unimaginable flesh and blood monster.
"It seems that the blood sacrifice back then was not as simple as the legend." After seeing this scene, Leo quickly thought of various legends about Odolin in his mind, and couldn't help but murmured in his heart.
However, compared to the flesh and blood giant, what caught Leo's attention more was actually the chains that bound the giant.
These chains come from the corners of Odolin's high wall. Although the walls of the high wall are engraved with holy symbols of gods and mantras containing divine power like the walls of other cities, the power of these gods does not affect those under the corner.
The chain, even though the power contained in the chain is completely different from the power of the gods, they can coexist perfectly without hindering each other.
These chains from the roots of the city wall contain extremely powerful power. At least Leo, a seventh-level psyker, cannot judge how powerful the power in the chains is.
In addition, the Turing root on the chain felt very familiar to Leo. After comparison and analysis, he guessed that it should belong to the same Turing root combination system as the Turing root on the surface of the stone ball that sealed the Eye of Truth.
The only difference is the level of complexity.
With Leo's current grasp and understanding of the Turing root, it shouldn't be a big problem to understand and copy the Turing root on the stone ball, but with these chain Turing roots now fully presented in front of him, Leo has
He couldn't understand many aspects, and even felt that it was contrary to the Turing root rules he had mastered.
There is no doubt that these chains that sealed the giants should have been made by the high tower wizard, and judging from the scene in front of me, the high tower wizard may have participated in the blood sacrifice that took place in Odolin City, and may even have been involved in the blood sacrifice.
Destroyer.
Just as Leo was immersed in thinking, a huge explosion sounded from Odolin's city, and then he saw a blast furnace in a smelting plant suddenly collapsed, and red and black molten iron mist spewed out.
, dyed the sky above and around the smelting plant red. Everyone in the city and outside the city who witnessed this scene screamed in surprise. Some women even covered their mouths and fainted on the spot. Apparently they had family members.
Work in that smelting plant.
However, in Leo's eyes, that place was a different situation, because that place was right near the giant's heart. When the blast furnace collapsed and molten iron spewed out, a vague giant figure stood out from the giant's heart.
He got up and tried to break out of the restraints of his body, but before he could break out of the surface, the chains that restrained him immediately burst out with beams of light, beating him like a whip and dispersing his form.
Leo didn't show too much surprise when he witnessed all this. He removed his spiritual vision ability, allowed his vision to return to normal, and then walked towards the direction of Odolin City.
Soon Leo walked on the main road outside Odolin City and came to a small town that was expanded outside the gate of Odolin City.
At this time, all the people in the town who were staying at home went to the streets. They all looked up at the molten light shining in the sky from within the high wall, and talked with each other about their opinions on the matter.
"It's the cursed land, it's the cursed land!"
"I knew something was going to happen."
"This time the Dodd Group will be in trouble. The smelter they spent so much money to build will be destroyed, and they will have to pay a large sum of money to compensate the victims."
"They deserve it. They knew clearly that there was a problem with the land and dared to build a smelter on it."
"I hope the other factories of the Dodd Group in the city will not be closed down because of this incident. They have a lot more conscience than those vampires, with high wages and good benefits."
As Leo walked through the town, he also collected the contents of the townspeople's conversations and learned about the situation.
To his surprise, the collapsed blast furnace turned out to be a smelter of the Dodd Group. This made him, who originally wanted to ignore the matter, now have to consider a solution to the matter.
Because monsters can imitate humans, before entering Odolin City, both locals and outsiders must pass some tests before they can enter. These tests include both church magic, shaman magic, and some
High technologies that shouldn't appear here, such as transilluminators.
This kind of transilluminator is a common device that is equipped on any mining ship in the universe. It is used to transmit the distribution of mineral deposits buried deep underground. However, now this kind of transilluminator is placed next to the city gate to transmit the information of those entering and exiting.
health condition.
I have to say that this is indeed a good way to identify monsters. No matter how the monster can imitate the appearance of humans, its internal organs are completely different from humans, and they can be easily distinguished through a transilluminator.
In addition, judging from the fact that the transmission spectrum of the transilluminator has been adjusted to a range that humans can bear, it is obvious that the person who installed this transilluminator should have mastered the use of this transilluminator.
Although most of the people in the city are ordinary people, there are also many mutants. Some of these mutants only have body or blood mutations due to certain reasons, and some are dependents. No matter what kind of mutants, they are all
Being incorporated into the city defense army, it is obvious that when they are attacked by monsters, these mutants, who are beyond the strength of ordinary people, need to stand in front of the monsters immediately and fight them head-on.
Because of this, ordinary people in Odolin do not look at these mutants with discriminatory eyes, at least on the surface, and even some of the true gods' dependents such as the Lord of the Sky and the King of the Mountain will become their worshippers.
objects, even if these true God's Familia have been completely dehumanized.
Just now, Leo saw several miners leaving the city, worshiping in front of a member of the Hill King who was an officer of the city defense army and whose body had mostly turned into stone. This kind of worship ceremony was for church believers to worship priests.
Clergy such as priests performed religious services, and neither the miners nor the family members felt any discomfort at all. Others around them seemed to be accustomed to this situation and would not give it a second glance.
According to common sense, families of True God like this should be picked up by their respective True God churches, and then given special status and treatment, at least at the bishop level.
But the problem is that as changes occur in the world, the number of True God Familiar clans has doubled. If all these Familiar clans are taken back, even the Lord of the Sky Church will not be able to bear it, so each True God Church will only send those with special
The true God's Familia with divine power will take them over for training. As for the other Familia whose body and bloodline have only mutated, the church will no longer invest resources and energy.
Although the church no longer pays attention to these true god's dependents, for the believers of the church, these true god's dependents are very special existences. No matter how powerful they are, they all contain a trace of true god's breath or blood, and they can
It is regarded as the incarnation of the god, so there are also some worship activities among the people for the true god's dependents. In the view of the church, as long as such things do not go too far, they usually turn a blind eye and close one eye.
Not interfering too much.
Leo did not use any psychic skills to avoid these inspections at the city gate. Instead, he followed the rules and procedures like everyone else. After getting a voucher from the hands of a Sky Lord family member who was on duty at the city gate, Leo
Entered the city of Odolin.
After entering the city, Leo immediately rented a carriage near the city gate, and then ordered the driver to go to the smelting plant where the collapsed blast furnace was located.
That smelting plant is a property of the Dodd Group. If Sylvia was really in the city and such a big thing happened, she would definitely go there to deal with the aftermath of the disaster.
Because it is a newly built city, urban planning and road construction are very reasonable. Coupled with strict regulations, the roads in the city are not as chaotic and congested as other places. The carriage rarely encounters any problems such as congestion along the way.
Soon we arrived outside the smelting plant.
At this time, the area around the smelting plant was already crowded with people watching the excitement. A large number of city gendarmes and police were maintaining security around the smelting plant. Judging from the collapsed walls of the surrounding factory area, the previous commotion was much greater than expected. In addition, there were constant
Bodies wrapped in white cloth were carried out of the factory and sent to corpse trucks waiting outside. More than a dozen corpse trucks outside were piled with corpses, and new corpse trucks joined in. It can be seen that the factory
The casualties inside were very high.
However, some careful people can find that there are no injuries on these corpses, otherwise the corpses should be stained red with blood, and judging from the condition of some corpses exposed under the white cloth, they should not die of burns or the like.
Therefore, many people around speculated that these people were all killed by the explosion that caused the blast furnace to collapse.
However, under the examination of Leo's mental network, the real cause of death of these factory workers may be related to the little giant drilled out of the flesh and blood giant's heart. The appearance of these workers' bodies looks normal, but their internal organs, including flesh and bones, are
All the organs in their bodies have aged to the extreme, as if all the vitality inside their bodies has been directly sucked away.
After Leo got off the carriage, he walked directly into the factory. Neither the police maintaining security nor the factory employees stopped Leo, as if Leo didn't exist, and allowed him to enter the factory area where the dust had not yet completely settled.
After entering the factory area, Leo directly used the mental network to quickly scan the inside of the factory area, and soon found Sylvia surrounded by people near the ruins of the collapsed smelting plant.
Although more than twenty years have passed, Sylvia's appearance has not changed much. The only difference is that her power is more powerful, and she is already very close to the level of a seventh-level psyker. She should be the same as when she was wearing
Like the Ice Queen of Liat, she is just one step away from being able to step into the alertness of a demigod.
Perhaps it was because her power had become stronger. When Leo's mental net fell on her body, she also felt something. Then she was stunned for a moment, and then she seemed to think of something, and a surprised smile appeared on her face.
, then turned to look in the direction of Leo, then gave a few instructions to the subordinates around him, and then walked towards Leo impatiently.
Her subordinates were extremely puzzled by Sylvia's behavior, because in their opinion, the current situation did not seem like a happy thing. For a while, they all looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
On the other side, Leo and Sylvia soon met each other in a cloud of dust. Although more than twenty years had passed, neither of them showed that kind of particularly exaggerated emotion, but they felt like an old couple.
So reserved, the two of them smiled at each other as if they had only been apart for a month or two, and then hugged each other, feeling each other's body temperature and smell.
At this time, Sylvia's subordinates of the First Witch Group also caught up. They were also puzzled by Sylvia's sudden departure from the scene of the incident. When they caught up, they wanted to ask Sylvia what happened.
