Chapter 1861 Unaffected Divine Power Crystal
In such a world with strong restrictions on supernatural powers, the birth of a god is absolutely incredible to Leo. However, the fact is that this thing really happened. The divine power crystal in his hand can only be made by the gods who have integrated the laws of this world, and can only be preserved in such a world for such a long time. So in addition to being shocked, he couldn't help but wonder how he became the god of this world, and where he is now?
As for whether this god is still alive, Leo didn't consider it at all, because the divine power crystal is the evidence of the existence of the god. If the god dies, the divine power crystal he made will also disappear.
Leo carefully studied this divine power crystal, trying to find clues related to the god, but it was a pity that this divine power crystal was very stable, so stable that it was almost indistinguishable from stone, and its hardness was not something Leo's current power could destroy.
In addition, the young Abyss Snake in the divine power crystal should have died. The reason why Leo made such a judgment is based on the relevant information of the Abyss Snake in his memory. The dead Abyss Snake will have an obvious death mark on its body. This death mark starts from the corner of the Abyss Snake's eyes, converges at the top of the snake's head, and spreads along the spine to the tail. Now this young Abyss Snake has such a death mark on its body.
Although the young Abyss Snake is dead, it does not mean that it is not dangerous. In fact, the Abyss Snake that still keeps its body intact after death is the most dangerous.
Under normal circumstances, after the death of the Abyss Snake, the death mark condenses from its body, and the body of the Abyss Snake will quickly decay, and only a skeleton will be left in the end. However, some Abyss Snakes will not decay after death, but will be preserved for reasons that even they themselves do not know. In this process, the death mark of the Abyss Snake will change into four colors. When it finally turns dark black, the dead Abyss Snake will be resurrected and become another kind of Abyss creature.
Leo didn't know what the abyss creature that the dead Abyss Serpent turned into after resurrection was, because there was no relevant record in the memory of the Abyss Serpent that Leo got. The only thing that was certain was that the Abyss Serpent was very afraid of the resurrected Abyss creature.
You should know that among the many superior races in the Abyss, the Abyss Serpent is not the top one, but it is also the one at the top of the Abyss. Even the natural enemy-type superiors like the Abyss Dragon can't make them afraid, but now they are afraid of their resurrected bodies, which is enough to show how terrible the resurrected Abyss Serpent is. Now the dead juvenile Abyss Serpent in Leo's hand is mutating in this direction. The death pattern on its body has turned blood red, and the top of its head has turned black.
Leo was a little curious at this moment. Did the god who sealed the young Abyss Snake with the divine crystal know the transformation result of the Abyss Snake after its death and resurrection? Did he know that his divine crystal was preventing the Abyss Snake from corrupting while sealing the body of the Abyss Snake? If the god knew all these things, then this matter would be worth pondering.
Although the resurrected Abyss Snake would become an extremely terrifying unknown Abyss Superior, Leo did not have any fear or terror, because according to the progress of the Abyss Snake's resurrection, the death pattern on the young Abyss Snake would probably take hundreds or even thousands of years to completely transform into black. After such a long time, Leo would have left this world long ago.
In addition, even if this young abyss snake can be resurrected quickly, with the current suppression of supernatural powers in this world, the abyss snake that mutates into another abyss superior after resurrection will probably also have all its powers suppressed. At that time, unless the mutated abyss superior has extremely strong physical strength after resurrection, it will be just a slightly tricky prey in front of Leo.
Although Leo did not feel any traces of supernatural power released from this divine power crystal, he was almost certain that his way of thinking was abnormal at this moment, which should be affected by this divine power crystal, because when he touched this divine power crystal, he felt a very strong warlike emotion in his mind. For example, he wanted to find the Mumu tribe further and learn from the Mumu tribe where this divine power crystal came from, but the method that emerged in his mind was to lead the colonial army to the tribes of the New World, arrest all the tribes of the New World for interrogation, and obtain the information he wanted.
Obviously, this method is not what Leo would normally think of. If it is a real situation, the only way he would think of is to find the Mumu tribe and get intelligence information from them through trading. Of course, he might use some tricks in the process, but he would never solve this problem by provoking a war or even personally participating in the war.
In order to confirm his idea, Leo tried several more times, testing whether he was really affected by touching and releasing the divine crystal, and then thinking about the problem. The result was as he thought, the divine crystal was indeed the source of his thinking.
As for why it was not the Abyss Snake, it was because he knew very well that the remains of the Abyss Snake after death only had some abyss aura. That abyss aura could not affect his way of thinking, let alone stimulate his emotions. Once it entered his body, it would be swallowed up by the stone pillar of the crystal snake.
Just after solving one question, some new questions came to his mind. Why can the divine crystal still exert extraordinary power? Obviously, this kind of power that can affect the way of thinking is definitely an extraordinary power. Although it seems that it needs to be touched to be affected, the problem is that Leo did not directly touch the divine crystal before, but was also affected. This means that the divine crystal can affect people near the statue by releasing it, which is obviously contrary to the laws of this world.
In addition, he has been able to confirm that the divine crystal has extraordinary power to affect the way of thinking and make people warlike, but he can't feel the existence of this extraordinary power at all. Even when he was holding the divine crystal and confirmed that he was being affected, he still couldn't feel anything abnormal, which made him very confused.
Finally, why the Mumu tribe has been exposed to the statues containing the crystals of divine power for many years, but has not been affected at all. You know, demigods like Leo can be affected unconsciously, let alone ordinary people. However, the Mumu tribe, which should have become extremely warlike, has become very peaceful. Leo analyzed the situation of the Mumu tribe’s settlement and other information. The Mumu tribe is not only not a warlike tribe, but also very peaceful. There are some medicinal materials and tools for making medicine in every room in the tribe. It can be seen that the Mumu tribe is famous for medicine. Except for those symbols related to blasphemous words, most of the decorations are natural patterns. It doesn’t look like a warlike tribe at all.
All kinds of questions made Leo more curious about the Mumu tribe, but he did not immediately look for the whereabouts of the Mumu tribe. Instead, he wrapped up the crystals of divine power, left the Mumu tribe, and returned to the camp of the pioneer group.
It was the next morning when we returned to the pioneering group camp from the Mumu tribe. Judging from the situation in the camp, Bernardo had obviously made a decision and planned to use the map provided by Leo to occupy the Mumu tribe and the surrounding areas first. A fully armed team of 4,000 people had already set out, and the person leading this team was Bernardo.
Although Bernardo was worried about the subsequent impact that the Golden Lake would inevitably cause, he had no way to stop it. He could only take the lead and make the most of it before things got completely out of control. At that time, whether he stayed in the New World or returned to the Novat Continent, it would not be a problem for him.
Leo did not go to see Bernardo, but went directly back to his tent in the camp, because nearly half of the elite pioneers had left, and the remaining people could not fill the tents of the entire camp, which made it feel much quieter. However, the officer in charge of logistics in the camp learned that the Natural Association and Matou Bay would send no less than 10,000 people to support Bernardo's pioneering group in the next few days.
Obviously, after Bernardo talked with Leo yesterday, he realized that he couldn't swallow such a huge benefit. He needed someone to help him resist the threat from other forces, but he couldn't just ask for help from one force. If he simply asked the Nature Association for help and showed the Golden Lake as bait, he would most likely be swallowed by the Nature Association along with the Golden Lake. So he needed to pull in a reliable support, and Matouwan should be the only reliable support he could find in a short time, even if there were estrangements and differences between the two before.
Although it is not known how Bernardo contacted the Governor of Matouwan within one day and convinced him, from the fact that the army in the Matouwan permanent camp not far from the Pioneer temporary camp began to dress up and move a large amount of stored materials to the Pioneer temporary camp, the two should have reached an agreement that satisfied both parties, and the previous contradictions and conflicts have obviously disappeared.
Leo was not very interested in the next move of the pioneer group. He only needed to wait for the pioneer group to fight with the indigenous tribes of the New World and find the Mumu tribe and the entrance to the underground world. Therefore, he did not plan to go deep into the jungle in a short time, but decided to stay in the pioneers' temporary camp and wait for news.
After returning to the tent in the camp, Leo took out the divine power crystal and put it on the table in a simple wooden box.
He planned to test whether the divine power crystal could release extraordinary power and make it work. According to previous experience, the divine power crystal could affect people nearby even if it was not directly touched, making people warlike.
As for how long it would take, Leo felt that it should not be long. After all, he had been in the temple for less than an hour and was already affected. For ordinary people, the time of being affected might be shorter.
Later, Leo's guess was confirmed. Less than twenty minutes after Leo returned to the camp, he heard a burst of noisy sounds coming from outside the camp. He lifted the tent curtain and looked out, and found that many people gathered on the lawn in the middle of the camp, and more people were rushing over there.
Leo casually grabbed a servant who was in charge of the scholar consultant's daily life and food and asked about the situation. The servant told him with a bad attitude that he had never had before that a fight had broken out on the lawn. Without saying who was fighting with whom, he rushed towards the lawn, looking as if he couldn't wait to join in.
It is obvious that both the servants' bad attitude and the fight on the lawn are affected by the crystal of divine power, and this crystal of divine power has some extraordinary power that is not restricted by the laws of this world and cannot be normally perceived.
"If the secret can be cracked, perhaps..." Leo immediately had an idea in his mind. He thought that if he could find out how the crystal of divine power can use extraordinary power without restriction, then he might be able to use his own power in this world by this method, which would be of great help to him in finding Sylvia's whereabouts.
Although Leo already had an idea, now was not the right time to study this matter, because under the influence of the crystal of divine power, everyone in the pioneer camp became extremely belligerent. With a little friction, even if it was not even friction, just a hostile look at each other, both sides would start to fight. If the crystal of divine power continued to stay in the camp, perhaps by tomorrow, there would be only a handful of people in the camp who could survive the civil strife.
Thinking of this, Leo picked up the crystal of divine power again, and then left the camp quickly, entered the jungle near the camp, found a place a little far from the camp, dug a pit, buried the crystal of divine power, and then moved a huge stone to press on the crystal of divine power.
After doing all this, Leo returned to the pioneer camp. Although there were still some conflicts in the camp that had not subsided, compared with everyone being caught up in a frenzy of fighting just now, the atmosphere in the camp returned to its original state at this moment. Many people felt that their actions just now were a bit inexplicable and did not understand why they had such a big temper.
Although the fight subsided, the follow-up reaction caused by this fight has just begun. The most troublesome thing is that the people who supported Matou Bay thought that Bernardo's pioneer group did not intend to cooperate, and even thought it was a trap. All kinds of materials that had been sent to the pioneer group camp were transported back, and the officer in charge of leading the team said that he would report the matter to the governor of Matou Bay and support the pioneer group when the governor had a definite order.
This is not good news for the pioneering group, but it is in the interests of the Nature Association, because without the participation of Matou Bay, their control over the pioneering group will increase significantly.
