Chapter 184 Egg Sheath Is the Statue of God
Salina confirmed some of Bian Ye's statements.
There is indeed a powerful god named [Star Sea God] on the second layer - to be more precise, he is a demigod.
However, Salina has no intersection with him. She just passed by the second layer when she was chased by the overwriting worm. Star Sea God neither stopped nor helped, and the two sides just passed by, which is also the usual attitude between the gods in the abyss.
As for the environment of the second layer, Salina didn't know much. She only remembered that most of it was water, and there was very little land.
The apostles rested and recovered to their best condition.
Lu Yao then clicked to enter the vortex.
The screen slowly displayed the prompt [Black Abyss Second Layer].
The vortex of the second layer was on a cliff, and there was indeed a vast ocean below, with stars in the sea water.
There were several cursed monsters under the cliff, and they were gnawing at the bodies of two clay figurines.
Under Lu Yao's command, Salina quickly killed the cursed monsters.
An exclamation mark appeared above Bian Ye's head, and he walked all the way to the bodies of his kind. After the death of the clay tribe, their bodies turned into a pile of brown soil.
"They are all dead... The friends who escaped with me this time are all dead..."
Lu Yao thought to himself that since this layer is a water world, he had to transfer a professional water operator.
He asked the apostles to stand by for a while and controlled the Deep Sea Lord from the pixel world to rush over.
When Clau entered the sea, his body swelled quickly and recovered to the form of a ship carrying an island.
Lu Yao asked everyone to go to the island and use the Deep Sea Lord, a sea fortress, to sail in the water.
While Lu Yao mobilized foreign aid, Isabel learned a lot of information from Bian Ye.
"My lord, the clay tribe lives in a water nest."
She explained: "That is the wisdom given to them by the Star Sea God, allowing them to live in the water. The food of the clay tribe comes from algae, shellfish and various fish in the water. The food will make them feel satisfied, but in fact, they can survive for a long time without eating..."
Soon, Lu Yao saw the water nest in the sea not far away.
It was a large mud ball floating on the water, with a sticky green substance on the surface, which looked like grease or paint.
The water nest was pushed by the waves and slowly sank and floated.
Suddenly, a hole opened on the top of the water nest, and several long vines were thrown out, and a little clay man climbed out along the vines.
He lay on the surface of the mud ball and pulled up the vines under the mud ball. There was a string of shellfish of different sizes hanging under the vines, which looked like some kind of strange decoration.
The little man took the shells off, then crawled all the way back to the sink, and the hole was blocked again.
This is basically the daily life of the clay man after adulthood.
Wandering on the sea, foraging, raising shells, waiting to meet other people's water nests, and then maybe become friends, or become a couple to form a family.
They hide in the water nest most of the time, consume very little, and have a long lifespan.
In the past, the clay clan only went ashore to live at two times, one was when the baby was born, and the other was when they were about to die.
If they wanted to reproduce, the clay man would control the water nest all the way back to the holy place where they were born, which was also the place of divine revelation of Lord Xinghai.
In the holy land, newborn babies will be blessed by the gods and free from diseases. There are two most important things there, one is the companion vine, and the other is the artifact of the gods [Wishing Star].
The companion vine will accompany every clay clan throughout their lives.
It is a peculiar creature. Every old citizen baby will pick a tender bud from the long vine wrapped around the [Wishing Star]. This companion vine will stay with the old people for life.
The companion vine will not only be a companion, but it can also reinforce water nests, fix shells and catch fish and shrimps, and rescue its companions when in danger.
This is a gift from the gods.
It is difficult for the clay clan to survive here without the companion vine.
Once the initial companion vine is lost for various reasons, it is very difficult to get the next piece of the companion vine. Because the companion vine also needs time to grow gradually, form trust and dependence with the companion, and they have a distinct exclusive nature.
During the escape, Bian Ye's companion vine was torn apart by the cursed monster, which also made him fall into despair.
The [Wishing Star] in the holy land is a sacred artifact left by the God of the Sea of Stars. Although the God may have fallen, this sacred artifact is still immortal and cannot be devoured by the curse bugs.
[Wishing Star] is the hope in the eyes of all the old people.
Every believer can make a wish to it, and pray with the most pious attitude and wholeheartedly. The God can hear the deepest prayers and desires of the believers.
Many believers will be watched by the God of the Sea of Stars and their wishes will come true.
Unfortunately, since the invasion of the curse bugs caused the fall of the God, the apostle who controlled the Wishing Star also died. [Wishing Star] has fallen into complete silence and no longer responds to wishes.
On the island where the Deep Sea Lord is incarnated, a frightened expression with his hands on his head appeared above Bian Ye’s head.
He said: "My Lord Apostles, the holy land has been occupied by the cursed monsters, they lay eggs there... they can't get to the shore."
"The holy land is in the center of the sea, and there are cursed monsters on the water around it. They are hunting water nests everywhere. The clay tribe lives a very difficult life... most of the time we have to hide the water nests underwater."
Whether this is a measure of the cursed insects or a purely unintentional result is still unknown.
The current situation on the second layer of the abyss is that the cursed monsters are gradually replacing the clay people.
The second floor is much larger than the first floor. Even with Isabel searching in the air and the Abyss Lord moving forward on the water, it took Lu Yao half an hour to find the location of the central land.
It is called land, but it is more like a large isolated island.
The island is covered with a white floc like spider silk, like a huge spider nest.
There is a giant spherical object in the center, occupying one-third of the entire island.
It is also covered with white silk threads from top to bottom, and there is a black pod on the top. All the threads on the island come from this pod.
Lu Yao called up the [Eye of True Vision] to check.
…
[Parasitic Insect Egg Sheath LV70]: Egg sheath made by Curse Insect and Parasite Insect.
HP: 8592/24180
Damage: 42
Defense: 94
Speed: 0
[Hatch]
Consume HP to hatch the Curse Mark Monster.
[Curse Mark]
Put down the Curse Mark and absorb the Fire of Faith through the Curse Mark.
[Rumination]
The cursed monster sent the captured mature cursed seal into the egg case to concentrate the power of faith.
…
[Godhead]: None.
[Divine nature]: As humble as an ant (13478).
[God body]: None.
…
Lu Yao understood.
This [parasite] uses the cursed seal to extract the fire of faith in every clay person, and then sends it back to the egg case.
Hunting the clay people is just a means.
The egg case in the center of the land can be regarded as a statue made by the parasite.
At this time, it is the turn of the snowman to take action.
"Jimmy will definitely complete the task!"
The snowman is dispatched.
As the deep sea lord hit the edge of the isolated island, the cursed monsters crawled out of the white silk net of the holy land, and they rushed towards the invaders like a conditioned reflex.
Facing these low-level monsters, the tyrant and the blood knight launched a one-sided clearing.
Jimmy's figure was ghostly, and soon he rolled all the way to the dead ball, and grabbed the egg case with his red gloves.
Lu Yao's upper right corner shows Faith +9321.
The egg case was anxious by this, and immediately sprayed out silk threads to wrap around the snowman.
But the snowman was too fast, constantly moving flexibly, and even detoured and took another handful of it at the opponent.
Faith +1227.
At this time, the bugs that were originally resisting the tyrant and the blood knight turned around and rushed towards the snowman like crazy.
Seeing this, Jimi ran all the way back and was supported by the blood knight behind.
"My Lord God, the egg case has no props, it is very poor, only some faith fire." Jimi said.
Lu Yao thought it was not bad.
A small profit of 10,000.
The Black Abyss is indeed a treasure trove of rich products! I will come to visit more often in the future.
Next, it is time for Salina and Navid to clear the field.
