Chapter 1860 Objects that Should Not Exist

Although Leo found clues that seemed to lead to the entrance to the underground world, he did not immediately go deeper into the jungle to search. Instead, he returned to the pioneering group and handed over the jewelry he found from the Mumu tribe to Bernardo.

"These are the jewelry made by the Mumu people?" Bernardo looked at the burial jewelry on the table with a surprised look on his face. Although he did not discriminate against the indigenous tribes of the New World like most other people, he also thought that The indigenous tribes of the New World have a certain degree of civilization, but in his heart he still feels that the civilization of the indigenous tribes of the New World is not particularly civilized, and he also believes that the indigenous tribes of the New World do not have any aesthetic ideas.

However, now that he saw the jewelry in front of him, Bernardo completely changed his previous thoughts, because these jewelry were all very beautifully made, such as the hollow gold wire earrings. In terms of production technology alone, they were already among the top jewelry craftsmen in Novarte. It is a master level, not to mention that the gemstones set in the jewelry can have so many facets. This kind of craftsmanship is not even available in the Novat continent.

Leo did not add any exaggeration and said truthfully: "Yes, these were found in the location of the Mumu tribe. There are no people there anymore. They should have migrated to the depths of the jungle with other indigenous tribes. To such a There are a lot of jewelry, all made of gold and gemstones, but they are all underwater and require some effort to salvage them.”

Later, Leo briefly explained the water burial customs of the Mum tribe that he discovered, and said that a large number of gold burial objects were carried by the water to a lake outside the tribe's residence. The bottom of the lake was full of gold burial objects. It is not an exaggeration to call it the Lake of Gold.

This golden lake was discovered by Leo when he left the Mumu tribe. At that time, he thought that if the water-buried corpses were washed away by the river, the gold products carried by the corpses might sink to the bottom because the downstream water flow slowed down, so he decided to He found the golden lake along the river, and just as he thought, the golden burial objects had filled the entire lake bottom after countless years of accumulation. At the first moment when he saw the golden lake, even if Even Leo couldn't help but be shocked by it. He believed that other ordinary people would definitely go crazy when they saw this scene.

"Is this all true? You didn't lie to me?" Bernardo took a few deep breaths to keep himself calm and asked in a deep voice.

"Of course it's true." Leo nodded, and added: "Not only is the Lake of Gold, there is also a very huge statue of the Golden Abyss Serpent in the Mumu tribe. That statue is shocking to people. , definitely no less than the Lake of Gold.”

After hearing this, Bernardo stood up and walked back and forth in the tent a few times, trying to calm down. After trying to adjust his breathing and suppress the turbulent emotions in his heart, he habitually said with a trace of doubt. Asked: "Why do you want to say it? Isn't it good for you to occupy this treasure alone?"

Leo seemed to know very well that Bernardo would ask this question, and quickly replied: "First of all, there are too many treasures there, so much that I can't even get them all by myself, and I can't take them away. Secondly, those treasures are too big for me." , except that it looks better than the stones on the roadside, it has no other value. In the end, this is the perfect bait I found. Since it is a bait, I naturally have to take it out and use it. "

"Bait?" Bernardo was stunned and said.

"It won't be long before the legend of the Golden Lake will spread to all the colonies and even to the Novat continent," Leo reminded: "The current Mumu tribe is like a treasure house with an open door. Anyone can You can go in and take away a lifetime of wealth, but this will not always be the case. When others know the news, it will be impossible for you to keep so much wealth. There is not much time left for you, Mr. Bernardo. "

Hearing Leo's words, Bernardo couldn't help but fell into deep thought. He felt the malice contained in it. He hardly even needed to think about it, and he could easily judge what kind of movement this news would cause if it spread. , it is no exaggeration to say that an unprecedented war will break out in the New World, because not only the coastal kingdoms will covet the wealth of the New World, but even those inland kingdoms will be attracted by such huge wealth, and no kingdom can To stop this momentum, not only the colonies established by the various kingdoms of Novat Continent will go to war for wealth in the New World, but the indigenous tribes of the New World will also go to war with their colonists, and wars will not only occur in the New World, but also the Novat Continent. Will be covered in flames of war.

Thinking of this, Bernardo's face became extremely gloomy. Although he predicted what would happen, he had no way to resist and could only go with the flow.

"What's the benefit of doing this?" Bernardo couldn't help but asked Leo: "What's the benefit of bringing war to this world?"

After hearing Bernardo's question, Leo didn't say anything, just hesitated for a moment, then turned and left Bernardo's tent, while Bernardo was silent for a long time, and finally he called the attendant, He ordered to summon all the supervisors and officers of the Pioneer Regiment. It seemed that even though he knew that he would be the one to start the war, he still had to carry it out because he had no way out at this moment.

After leaving Bernardo's tent, Leo did not return to his own tent in the pioneer group, but left the pioneer group directly, re-entered the jungle, and rushed to the location of the Mumu tribe. His face was a little serious along the way, as if he had encountered some problems.

Because he already knew the location of the Mumu tribe, and the speed of the journey was very fast, Leo only took half a day to pass through the jungle and return to the Mumu tribe.

After returning to the Mumu tribe, he immediately came to the cave temple where the statue of the Abyss Serpent was located. There was no change here as when he left before. Perhaps because of the change in mentality, the statue of the Abyss Serpent, which did not have any extraordinary power in his eyes before, and the completely suppressed blasphemous words on the base of the stone lamps around the temple, all became different.

"When was I affected by the abyss?" Leo looked at everything in front of him and muttered in confusion.

Although Leo now feels normal, with no physical or mental problems, what happened to Bernardo before made him very sure that he should have been affected by the power of the abyss, and his way of thinking has also become abyssal.

The reason why he thought so was that when Bernardo asked him what the benefits of doing this were, he found that he was using the gold of the Mumu tribe to provoke a war that affected the entire world, and doing so did not benefit him at all. Instead, the abyss might be able to use this war to tear a hole in the powerful laws of this world.

In Leo's estimation, once the news of the Golden Lake spreads, the first place where the war will break out may not be the New World, but the Novat Continent, because the inland countries of the Novat Continent absolutely do not want to see the coastal kingdom rise because of the gold of the New World. They will do their best to suppress the coastal kingdom, and the coastal kingdom will not give up this opportunity to completely get rid of the suppression of the inland kingdom. In this way, the war between the two will inevitably break out in a short time, and it will be extremely tragic.

As for the New World, it is more of a war between the indigenous tribes, and because there is no support from the Novat continent, they will fall into a passive position in the war situation, and even all the colonies may be recaptured by the indigenous tribes. Of course, this premise depends on how united the indigenous tribes under the control of the Paho are.

Whether it is the war in the Novat continent or the war in the New World, it can only bring death and chaos, and for the Abyss, death and chaos are the best catalysts for the Abyss power. It is conceivable that such chaos and war will bring great benefits to the hidden Abyss power in this world.

It is precisely because of this that Leo believes that he should be here in the Mumu tribe, or more accurately in front of the statue of the Abyss Serpent, influenced by the Abyss, and then unconsciously act according to the Abyss.

Although it is reasonable to say that his life form as a level nine psychic is basically immune to the influence of the power of the abyss, and the power of the stone throne can also ensure the purity of his spirit, but at this moment in this world, all the extraordinary powers are suppressed. Even if these extraordinary powers can still work in the body, it is unknown whether there will be any flaws that should not appear due to the suppression of the laws of this world.

However, compared with his own problems, Leo is more curious about how the statue of the abyss snake in front of him, which can't feel any trace of extraordinary power, affects him.

The first thing Leo thought of was the treacherous saliva in the eyes of the abyss snake. Although the treacherous saliva is also suppressed by the laws of this world, it can still maintain some power. These powers may be absorbed by him through contact with his hands when he extracts liquid, thus affecting his way of thinking.

However, this conjecture was quickly denied, because he tried to touch the treacherous saliva again, and carefully felt the reaction after the contact in his body. Although there was indeed a trace of the abyss breath trying to penetrate into his body at the moment of contact with the treacherous saliva, before Leo could react, the abyss breath had been absorbed by the stone pillar representing the crystal snake in the stone pillar square, without causing any waves.

Afterwards, Leo placed his suspicion on those blasphemous words, wondering if he was unconsciously affected when reading the blasphemous words.

So he tried to read these blasphemous words carefully again, and the result was still the same. Compared with the treacherous saliva, these blasphemous words were suppressed more severely by the laws of this world, and did not produce any abnormal reaction at all, just like some incomprehensible symbols.

"Could it be it?" Leo turned his head and looked at the statue of the abyss snake. Now the only thing that could make Leo suspicious was the statue itself.

This time, he no longer just looked at the statue with his eyes, but began to dismantle it. He did not think that the appearance of the Abyss Serpent Statue could produce any mysterious power. He felt that if there really was an unknown power that could silently affect his way of thinking, then it could only be hidden in the statue.

If it was a normal situation, he could just scan it with the mental network, but now the mental network could not be used at all, so he could only dismantle the statue bit by bit.

The first thing to be removed was the snake skin on the outer layer of the statue. When removing the snake skin, Leo discovered some hidden details that he had not discovered before. For example, among these snake skins, there were several pieces of shed skin that were suspected to belong to the Abyss Serpent. The reason for this is that the surface of those skins has scales that are completely different from normal snake scales. On the surface of these scales, there are not regular patterns, but distorted faces.

Although scales that may belong to the Abyss Serpent were found, these scales did not produce extraordinary power. Just like the blasphemous words, the Abyss power contained in them was suppressed and could not be emitted at all.

Because he was worried that his perception was flawed, in order to test whether the scales could pollute life, Leo specially caught an animal and attached the scales to the animal. As a result, after a long time, the animal was still normal.

After discovering that the scales could not produce any Abyss pollution, Leo continued to look for new clues. This time he began to dismantle the golden body of the Abyss Serpent statue bit by bit.

Because when the Mumu tribe cast this statue, they mixed unknown metal materials into the gold, making this gold very hard. Even with Leo's strength, it took a long time to cut it.

I don't know if Leo's luck is not good. He cut the golden snake from the top of the head, and finally he found the tail of the golden snake, which is the center of the bottom, where the snake's genitals are located.

I saw that there was a spherical crystal in that part, and a juvenile abyss snake was entrenched in the crystal.

This is not the snake egg of the abyss snake. Although the abyss snake looks like a snake, it is not oviparous, but viviparous. Moreover, this spherical crystal is more like sealing the abyss snake than protecting the juvenile abyss snake.

However, this is not the most surprising thing for Leo. What really surprised Leo is that this spherical crystal is not a mineral, but a crystal of divine power composed of the purest divine power.

Things like divine power crystals are usually divine objects bestowed by gods to their followers. They can be absorbed by the followers themselves to improve their affinity with the gods, or they can be made into artifacts. However, no matter which kind of divine power crystal it is, it needs to borrow the power of the laws of the world controlled by the gods. Once the divine power crystal or the artifact made of the divine power crystal leaves that world, the divine power crystal will soon disappear, just like snow under the sun.

The divine power crystal in front of us is still well preserved and may have existed for a long time. It can still play the role of imprisoning the juvenile abyss snake. This means that this divine power crystal is very likely to come from the current world, and this world that prohibits all extraordinary powers is very likely to have gods.
