Chapter 540: Well Done, Sister Butterfly
Lu Yao had never expected to find a Voyager when he opened the box.
His first subconscious reaction was, how about putting the bull back into the dark treasure box?
On the screen.
The black bull had a snorting nose and a savage look in his eyes, looking wild.
I don’t know if it’s easy to put it back into the dark treasure box.
However, after being shot down from the sun ship, the black bull became motionless.
Lu Yao checked.
…
[Imprisonment]: cannot be moved.
…
It turns out that this state is in effect.
Unlike those time-limited status bars, the [Imprisonment] on the black bull’s head is blood red, and there is no sign of it disappearing.
Lu Yao thought that this should be related to the [Curse of the Old God].
He tried to communicate with the bull.
A dialog box can be clicked on the black bull’s head.
——How did you get locked up?
Black bull: “?”
——Don’t understand what I mean?
Black Bull: "?"
No matter what kind of text Lu Yao inputted, the other party couldn't understand it. He even typed an emoji of a sweating soybean, but the other party still got a question mark reply from Black Bull.
The communication attempt failed.
It seems that the other party can't communicate at the text level.
Lu Yao remembered another thing.
According to the timeline of the virtual universe, the God of Darkness has locked the Black Bull in the box for at least a few hundred years. Going back to the God of the Forest, the earlier Rose Kingdom, and even the dike builders, it may have been thousands of years ago.
The Black Bull is a navigator and the main god of the virtual universe. He is either an outsider who has entered through a dimensional reduction like Ju, or a local god.
For this bull, the God of Darkness did not mention it in the background of the Abyss World.
Then we can only change the information source.
Lu Yao opened the committee database and began to check the strategy.
Fortunately, this bull is not an ordinary person, and there are many relevant records.
"...In ancient Egyptian mythology, Atum is the head of the nine gods, often represented as the black bull Monur, and also has the appearance and identity of snakes, lizards, beetles, lions, bulls and ichneumons."
"Atum controls the sun at dusk, and together with Khepri, who controls the morning, and Ra, who symbolizes noon, they form the three sides of the sun god. They patrol the world in the sun boat of the Milky Way to resist the dark side brought by the ancient demon of destruction [the Terrible] Apophis."
"...In Egyptian mythology, the sun god, as an important main god, has experienced many Over the course of many eras, theocracy and titles have been constantly alternating, confusing and merging, and eventually evolved into a trinity of three gods with three sides. "
"Three sides in one body, namely, morning, noon and dusk are each represented by a god. Morning is opened by Khepri, who coexists with the scarab, symbolizing revival and regeneration; noon is owned by Ra, who has the most powerful and pure power, representing the peak of powerful divine power; dusk belongs to Atum, who coexists with the primitive wildness of the world, giving a fair ending to all things."
...
Lu Yao extracted all the key information and copied and pasted it on the computer document.
The conclusion is as follows.
First, the black bull Monur is Atum, one of the sun gods in Egyptian mythology.
Second, the driver of the sun boat Dusk is the black bull.
Third, the title and power successor of Atum requires wild natural life, and the black bull is indeed a cow.
In this way, some of the previous strange situations are easy to understand.
Although the Black Bull has the identity and godhood of a sailor, he still cannot understand what Lu Yao means because he remains in his original wild state.
Monur can control the solar boat, but he is still a bull.
If one day the Black Bull loses his wildness, he may lose the power of Atum.
This beastly sailor makes Lu Yao feel mixed emotions.
The advantage of the Black Bull is that there is no need to worry about him doing something tricky. He will not think about it at all. He completely lets go of himself and his instincts, and he is consistent inside and out.
This is also the disadvantage.
He is brainless and cannot get more information from his mouth. He relies heavily on Lu Yao's unilateral operation guidance to obtain information.
Lu Yao selects the Black Bull and clicks [Curse of the Old God].
The content of the curse is: Monur needs to eat 99 suns to break this curse.
The current completion of the Black Bull is 0/99.
Lu Yao can only say sorry for disturbing him.
Temporarily giving up on breaking the curse, Lu Yao began to look for other superficial values of the Black Bull.
Suddenly he came to his senses.
Can the black bull eat the sun?
Will he swallow it in one gulp, or spit out the dark core inside, or just eat the core?
Lu Yao prepared to give it a try.
He asked King Wuji to open the treasure chest before, take out the broken sun inside, and feed it to the black bull.
As soon as the dark red sun approached, the black bull opened its mouth and sucked it into its stomach.
Then a faint red light emanated from his body, which was fleeting.
The black bull was fed and stopped emitting white air, and his attitude seemed to have improved.
The simulator displayed.
[The black bull Monur has changed from hostile to neutral towards you. ]
Lu Yao understood.
Feeding the sun can also increase favorability.
A digital progress bar (1/99) also appeared after Monur's [Old God Curse].
Lu Yao vaguely understood the intention of the God of Darkness.
He deliberately left the black bull, not only as a kind of evil taste of the dark side towards the light camp, but also to leave it to the successor to tame and control this beast-like sun god.
I think after the curse is lifted, Atum's normal form should be quite powerful.
It just consumes a bit of sun.
While Lu Yao was thinking, he found that the black bull shook and a glittering object was vomited out by it and fell to the ground.
It looked like a gold nugget.
…
[Monur's Stone]: The stone produced by the black bull Monur after eating, which contains a large amount of high-concentration light elements.
…
Black bull's bezoar?
Lu Yao was a little amused.
Apart from the stones vomited by the black bull, eating the sun does not produce anything else. This also made Lu Yao basically certain that feeding the sun was mainly to tame the black bull and remove the curse.
Bezoar is an unexpected derivative.
Lu Yao put away the stone and threw it to Philus, asking this apostle who specializes in element research to use it for experiments.
The skeleton apostle was very excited, and an exclamation mark lit up above his head.
"This is a substance that has never been seen before, pure and full of energy, light element... It turns out that the sun contains a lot of this element."
"Subordinates will definitely not waste this precious material! Make good use of it!"
Lu Yao looked back at the abyss layer.
Lightning flashed in the void from time to time, illuminating the Dark Temple from time to time. Next to the temple was the black bull that could not move because of [confinement].
Looking back, Lu Yao had already gained amazing results from the initial development of the seventh floor of the abyss.
The god King Wuji inherited the title of [Sun Hunter] and had the special ability to hunt the sun in the outside world.
By opening the treasure chest, Lu Yao obtained the mythical wonder [Sun Clock that spans the world] and the mythical item [Sun Boat·Dusk].
If the sun is captured and the curse is broken, it is very likely that Atum, one of the sun gods, will pledge allegiance.
In addition, Lu Yao also received a total of 2,248 world stones, 4.93 million fires of faith, and 1 divine principle.
It must be said that the Dark God is indeed a big family with endless treasures in the abyss, and this is only a part of the legacy he left behind.
Just as Lu Yao was about to leave, he noticed something strange.
Under a stone road in the lower left corner of the seventh floor, the light of the fire of faith flickered.
There is also a sealed passage leading to the eighth floor.
But next to the sealed passage, there are some things emitting a faint white light.
Because the light is dim, and it is obscured by the flame of the fire of faith, and the angle is tricky, Lu Yao did not notice this abnormality before.
He clicked and found that, wow, there are actually a bunch of [broken suns] here.
But these suns are dying, their mana is close to zero, and the color has turned into a darker yellow-white. In addition to the sun, there are dark cores that have turned black on the ground.
This also proves that the dark core is indeed the next form of the broken sun after shrinking.
Lu Yao counted.
There are 47 broken suns and 18 dark cores on the seal side, and they overlap in a pile.
So what's the matter with these unpacked suns?
Lu Yao opened the backstage encyclopedia of the abyss and found the relevant description at the bottom.
[The black scepter was triggered successfully: the broken sun was obtained. ]
[The black scepter was triggered successfully: the broken sun was obtained. ]
...
Lu Yao dared to confirm it.
The sun extracted by [Obsidian Butterfly Goddess] with [Black Scepter] really came to the seventh layer of the abyss.
The process of extracting the sun by the Black Scepter is far inferior to that of the Black Bull. After extracting the fire of faith, it only became a broken sun, and it has not yet become a crystalline dark core.
The Butterfly Goddess is quite diligent and has already dealt with so many suns.
Wait.
Lu Yao was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed.
The collection of suns that was originally thought to be difficult to complete in a short period of time, lifting the seal of the Black Bull, does not seem to be so far away!
Well done, Sister Butterfly.
You have to live longer, at least until I can collect 99 suns.
Lu Yao sincerely wished her peace and success, and that she could withstand the siege of the gods of Aztec mythology.
The originally complicated task of collecting and hunting suns was shared by the Butterfly Goddess, and the progress suddenly increased.
Lu Yao immediately ordered King Wuji to focus his main energy on hunting suns.
Lu Yao also controlled the Yunzhong Temple, using the gravity of the vortex world to collect all the gravel worlds within the field of vision.
There are very few gravel worlds with suns, and the naked eye cannot distinguish them directly, so the only way to win is by quantity.
As long as the world is large enough, a few suns can be screened out.
Under Lu Yao's anchor, King Wuji stepped into the gravel worlds one by one, looking for the trace of the sun.
This process is boring and tedious, and failure still runs through most attempts.
Sun +1
None
None
None
None
Sun +1
…
Lu Yao focused on the operation to find the sun until the alarm on his mobile phone rang.
He realized that it was time to meet with Song Shiyi.
So Lu Yao cleaned up his mood and sent Isabel to the appointment.
