Chapter 1221 The Mystery in the Belly

The crystal python itself is not a mythical creature, and of course it does not possess the "mythical power", so the "mythical power" in the spiral rune can only be infused by an outsider, and this person is also the creator of the spiral rune.

After deduction to this point, Joan came up with an incredible conjecture.

Since the spiral rune is man-made, will the crystal python whose horns are implanted with the spiral rune be also a man-made product?

If this is the case... Joan suddenly shudders!

The mysterious person who made the crystal python must be hiding deep in the mine veins, and the reason why he made the crystal python may be to protect the deep-buried mines from being discovered and used by outsiders.

Not to mention whether this person has an attempt to monopolize the magic crystal mine, just because he can create an extremely powerful monster like the crystal python, how strong should he be?

Joan couldn't imagine it.

"Mr. Klein, just now you asked me whether the threads on the crystal python's horns are natural or man-made. I think the answer is probably man-made. Of course, 'man-made' is just a metaphor. In fact, this guy may not be human. "

After a long period of contemplation, Joan carefully issued a warning to his companions.

"The person who created these threads is probably also the creator of the crystal python, whose strength is too strong to guess."

"This mysterious person can create a crystal python, so there is no reason not to create more of the same monster."

"If we continue to explore, it is very likely that we will encounter more crystal python attacks, and even directly face the creator of the crystal pythons. It is best to prepare in advance."

After hearing what he said, Audrey, Holden, Klein, and Scholz looked at each other in blank dismay, all of them couldn't hide the look of horror in their eyes.

Just when everyone hadn't fully digested the shocking news, Hailaer's shout full of surprise came from behind.

"Hey! Come and see, everyone! I found something amazing!"

"Sister Cai, please calm down for a while, we are worrying." Holden said angrily.

However, the moment he turned his head to look at Hailar, his eyes were suddenly dull, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

"I didn't make a fuss, if you don't believe me, look—" Hailaer held up his hands, "I found a pair of shoes in the belly of the crystal python!"

a pair of shoes?

In the stomach of the crystal python?

What a joke!

Could it be true?

...

Countless thoughts flashed through Joan's mind, and after a short moment of astonishment, he jumped up and ran towards Hailar.

Audrey, Holden, Klein, and Scholz also came to their senses one after another, followed Joan's footsteps in a hurry, and ran over.

Hailaer was very satisfied with everyone's dramatic reaction, waving the pair of little leather boots in his hand, and giggling complacently.

"Miss Cai, tell the truth, are these shoes your own, pretending to pick them up from the stomach of the crystal python, and playing tricks on us?" Holden asked in disbelief.

"Little rascal! If your eyes are not blind, you should be able to tell that these boots are at least two sizes smaller than my feet. Unless I chop off my toes, they won't fit in at all!" Hailar said angrily He retorted vigorously.

Holden glanced at the small pair of leather boots in her hand, then looked down at her feet, touched his nose and said embarrassingly: "Well, I was wrong, these boots belonged to a girl with little feet, not You big-footed girl."

"Go to hell!" Hailar kicked up and kicked the poet's ass heavily.

Audrey took the pair of leather boots from her hand, observed them carefully, and murmured: "The size looks like a pair of children's shoes, but why would a child of seven or eight years old come to such a ghostly place?"

"Those are not boots worn by children, but the person wearing these boots is about the size of a seven or eight-year-old human child."

After all, Klein was experienced, and he could see through the truth just by looking at it, so he couldn't help laughing.

"Do you still remember the group of dwarves who were tortured and killed by the crystal python? The owner of these boots is a dwarf. How about it, does the truth disappoint you?"

"Brother, I'm afraid it's not that simple."

Holden wiped away the shoe prints on his butt, with a rare serious expression on his face.

"The crystal python did kill many dwarf miners, but did not devour the corpses of the dead. As an earth elemental creature, this monster only needs to absorb radiation energy from the magic crystal veins to maintain its activities, and it does not need to eat flesh and blood to replenish energy , why did you find a pair of dwarf boots in its belly?"

In fact, Qiao An also had the same question. He turned around and hurried to the corpse of the crystal python, peeping into the broken abdominal cavity. After careful observation, he came to a conclusion.

"The crystal python's abdomen is a smooth cavity without any digestive organs. Even if it swallows a dwarf, it can't be digested and absorbed. It can be seen that Holden is right. The crystal python neither needs nor has the ability to swallow and digest flesh and blood, so his stomach Where did these shoes come from?"

"This...maybe just a coincidence." Klein stroked his beard, trying to give a reasonable explanation, "For example, when the dwarfs were escaping from the pursuit of the crystal python, they panicked and lost their leather boots. The python tried to bite, and swallowed the boot that fell off...well, I know it's farfetched."

The dwarf brother shrugged awkwardly and spread his hands.

"Guys, please allow me to remind you to pay attention to a small detail." Scholz, who has always been taciturn, said suddenly, "In fact, what Hailar found was not a pair of boots, but two boots."

"Scholz, are you talking about tongue twisters?" Klein looked at his old partner in surprise, "Although this joke is not funny, it's rare that you have such a sense of humor, so I applaud you."

"Brother, listen to me, this is not a joke." Scholz looked serious, pointing to the pair of leather boots in Hailaer's hand, "No one grows two left feet at the same time, right?"

After he reminded, everyone's eyes were all focused on the pair of leather boots, only then did they realize that the two leather boots were left feet!

If a pair of leather boots were found in the belly of the crystal python, it can be explained by "coincidence", but the two left boots can no longer be explained by coincidence, there must be something strange in it!

"Things are getting weirder and weirder. With my brain, I can't figure out what's going on!" Klein patted his forehead with a wry smile, and then cast an expectant look at Joan: "Brother, You are the smartest of us all, can you give me a reasonable explanation?"

Joan has actually made more than one bold guess about the various doubts about the crystal python, but these guesses are not "reasonable". If he speaks out in public, he may be suspected of being crazy.
