Chapter 548 Killing Monsters and Seizing Treasures
For ordinary people, this is probably an unimaginable scene.
The human who looked like a normal girl just now suddenly had her skin split in the middle, and then a weird monster came out of it. Its head is full of tentacles, its abdomen is full of crawling joints like cockroaches, and wings like mosquitoes grow on its back...
Sure enough, he was just an ordinary alien.
This can also explain why Baskerville's ancestors lost. After all, being able to exorcise demons is one thing, but fighting aliens is another.
Although people often confuse demons with aliens, they are actually different...well, almost the same?
"It's indeed Mi.Ge!"
Faced with the sudden change before his eyes, Duanmuhuai was not surprised. In fact, when he saw the strange instrument left by the ancestor of the Baskerville family, Duanmuhuai immediately guessed the person behind the incident. His true identity - the reason is very simple. The Migo family's brain transplant is so famous that it is difficult not to know.
Mi. Ge——an alien race from the starry sky. They have been on this planet for as long as the Ancient Ones. They even had a war with the Ancient Ones because of territorial disputes. Now they are hiding among humans like this, doing their own thing.
Strictly speaking, Migo is not an alien race that is harmful to the human group like the Shoggoth. Their biggest purpose on this planet is to collect ore, and occasionally remove the brains of humans who have discovered their secrets, and then release them. Take it away in the jar... Of course, from the perspective of the Inquisition, these are not important.
Any alien race that dares to harm humans will only die!
Moreover, among the monsters in this world, Migo ranks among the top three in the eyes of players!
The reason is also very simple. Unlike monsters such as deep divers and empty ghosts that we have dealt with before, Migo is an alien civilization. Although they themselves will also be decomposed and melted after being killed, their items are not like It is as troublesome as the decoration of the deep diver or the void ghost relic that can attract subspace monsters. If you take it to the foundation, you can even get a lot of points.
Because of this, for players, Migo is considered to be the top three best prey on their murder and treasure rankings!
By the way, number one is the great race Yis.
The reason is also very simple, because the great race Yisi will let himself enter the human body through spiritual exchange, and then learn a lot of human knowledge, and at the same time exercise his body. Therefore, some players with average physical attributes have thought of such a way to get rich.
If you have no money, no knowledge, and no physical fitness when you first arrive in this world, don’t worry about it. Just go find a converter of a great race, and then conduct spiritual exchanges with the great race, and then make a fortune in the world of the great race. After ten years, and then return to your own body, you will find that your body has become a knowledgeable, healthy and very rich person...
You can let the great race work for you for free and make money, exercise and even help you learn knowledge, and you can also fish for yourself. Is there anything more profitable than this?
And in order to avoid being noticed that something is wrong, the great race will not have long-term interactions with specific people during the period of possession, let alone any interpersonal crisis. This is simply great!
Duanmu Huai is also a player, so when he learned that there was a Migo on this land, his first reaction was - here is the opportunity to kill people and seize treasures!
Most of the Migos live incognito in the mountains. The reason is very simple. On the one hand, they are unwilling to have more contact with humans and expose their flaws. On the other hand, they also collect and refine ores here, or conduct similar remote scientific research work. Whether it is mining or scientific research, the alien technological equipment brought by the Migo family is definitely indispensable.
If you can get these things and exchange them with the foundation...hehehehe, promotion and wealth are just around the corner!
Because of this, whether as a judge, investigator or player, Duanmu Huai will not let go of Migo who dares to appear under his nose!
Like now!
"Aha!!"
Facing Migo who was rushing toward him, Duanmuhuai roared angrily and stretched out his hand to grab the opponent's head. Migo's head was like a fly's head without compound eyes, and the neck connected to the body at the back was thin and long. The head is covered with synaptic-like protrusions, but for Duanmuhuai, there is nothing to be afraid of at this level. I saw him reaching out his hand, grabbing the other person's head, and twisting it hard!
"Tear!!!"
The next moment, the Migo's head was torn off by Duanmu Huai, and its body rolled forward, and then was kicked away by Duanmu Huai. Duanmu Huai, on the other hand, didn't even glance at the corpse in front of him, and rushed directly into the room inside - he didn't forget that there was a monster hiding here disguised as a human!
“Buzz————!!!”
Sure enough, just as Duanmu Huai rushed into the room inside, accompanied by a sound like the flapping of mosquito wings, Duanmu Huai saw a black figure suddenly jump out of the bed and rush towards the window.
How could you succeed? !
Migo also has wings and the ability to fly like the Ancients, but they have not degraded due to environmental comfort like the Ancients. The most difficult thing about catching Migo is that the opponent can fly. This is also the experience summarized by many players through blood and tears. After all, except for a few players, most players cannot fly. Therefore, facing Migo who can fly, he will naturally be at a disadvantage for the first time.
Of course, Duanmuhuai didn't want to fight Migo in the air, so when he saw the opponent trying to escape, he roared, rushed over, stretched out his hand and grabbed Migo, who was waving desperately. wings, and then pull hard!
“——————!!!”
Weird, terrifying, and shrill screams came from Migo's mouth, and he rushed out of the window and fell to the ground. Duanmuhuai, on the other hand, had no intention of letting it go. He raised his fist high and swung it down with all his strength!
"Pfft!!"
It was as if a steely fist penetrated Migo's thick biological armor and penetrated directly into the body. Then Duanmuhuai pulled out with force, like pulling a shrimp thread, and directly pulled out the nerve threads on Migo's back! !
“————!————!!!”
I'm afraid that as an alien creature, Migo has never encountered such treatment. At this moment, the screams coming from its mouth have been completely distorted and deformed, even causing large flocks of birds in the forest to fly up. However, Duanmu Huai didn't care. He punched Migo again, smashing Migo's mouthpart into pieces. Then Migo collapsed to the ground, unresponsive.
"Very good! Success!"
Seeing this scene, Duanmuhuai breathed a sigh of relief.
If you just kill it, then it is very simple. But although Migo is an alien creature, in fact, strictly speaking, it is more like a fungal creature... huh?
Looks a bit like a certain greenskin?
………………Forget it, put this aside for now.
All in all, if you just kill Migo, its body will decompose sooner or later, but as long as it is alive, it will not decompose.
In the game, players have also gone to great lengths to capture Migo. The reason is very simple. Unlike Cthulhu, a sealed evil god, and subspace creatures such as Void Ghost, Migo's power is currently within the solar system. . Although it is not certain whether humans will fight Migo sooner or later, the more we know about the alien race, the better. If players can summon a fleet, Migo will naturally be completely wiped out.
It is a pity that in this world, players do not have enough power to summon a fleet. Considering this, it is necessary to improve the world's awareness and understanding of the Migo clan.
Later, some players discovered that as long as the nerve center on Migo's back was removed like peeling off shrimp thread, he could lose his ability to move while he was still alive. And if you can sell the living Migo to the foundation, you can get a lot of points - after all, as an alien creature, the danger of Migo itself is relatively low, and it will not cause much harm even if it is handed over.
Of course, it's just relatively low.
After all, this group of alien hybrids believe in Shub Nicholas and Nyarlathotep. Just hearing these two names, you know how difficult this group of aliens is to deal with.
The ancestor of the Baskerville family was probably targeted by Migo for this reason. At the beginning, maybe Migo just wanted to use the power of the Baskerville ancestor to help him collect some things, but unexpectedly it made the ancestor suspicious, and finally discovered the truth hidden by Migo.
Of course, at that time, perhaps the ancestor simply thought that the alien-looking Migo was some kind of demon... But unfortunately, there is still a difference between demons and aliens after all.
After that, the ancestor was defeated by Migo and then transformed into a monster similar to a werewolf. As for why he attacked the descendants of the Baskerville family, was it to hide the secret? After all, as long as everyone in the Baskerville family is dead, Migo's secret will not be exposed.
The Migo clan, which worships Shub Nicholas, has very advanced biological modification technology. It is not surprising that they can do this.
After taking care of the two Migos, Duanmuhuai returned to the house in front of him again.
As mentioned before, this is a very remote, farm-like mansion located deep in the mountains. From the outside, there is nothing special about it. But soon, Duanmuhuai discovered a secret room in the basement under the farm, and found some strange things in it.
"The scientific research station doesn't feel very valuable."
Duanmu Huai showed a disgusted expression when he looked at the metal instruments in front of him, which had no sci-fi color at all and looked more like some kind of twisted instruments handmade by primary school students. In fact, he hopes to find Migo's mining station. The refined ore there is more valuable. After all, the technology of this alien civilization is too far away from human civilization and cannot be used at all. Even if the foundation recovers it, At most, it's just a novelty to look at, and there's no way to use it.
After all, humans don’t have mosquito-like wings or cockroach-like legs.
Forget it, that's it, it's better than nothing.
Duanmuhuai used the phone in the farm to contact the foundation.
"Du... Du... Du... Du..."
After the phone rang nine times with what sounded like a busy signal, it suddenly cut off and sounded like it was hung up on. However, Duanmu Huai didn't care and spoke.
"I caught a Migo and confiscated their scientific research station. Come and get it if you want. The location is..."
After explaining the location in detail, there was silence for a moment.
"Please wait."
After saying this, the phone was hung up.
After about half an hour, Duanmuhuai saw several helicopters flying through the sky with a rumbling sound, circling and stopping above the farm, and then dozens of fully armed soldiers slid down the rope. , quickly arrived in front of Duanmu Huai. Duanmu Huai also kicked Migo, who had his central nervous system removed and looked like a dead fish, and threw him in front of them.
"That's it."
As for the other one whose head was twisted off by Duanmuhuai, it had naturally melted long ago.
"………………"
No one spoke, only the leading soldier nodded to Duanmuhuai, who also waved his hand.
"Then I'll leave, and I'll leave this place to you."
Duanmuhuai didn't worry about how the foundation would handle things there. He just returned to Baskerville Manor, then found the Baroness and informed her of the situation.
"It's hard to say specifically, but I think everything should be over."
Since Migo does not have a good habit of keeping a diary, Duanmuhuai has no way to learn what happened from their mouths. However, for now, based on reasoning and judgment based on the illusions he saw before and his subsequent experiences, It should be close to ten.
So for now, the Baskerville family's troubles should be considered resolved.
"That's it..."
Hearing Duanmuhuai's words, the expressions of the Baroness and the old housekeeper were a little subtle. After all, they had just discovered the secret room below and learned the unknown secrets of their ancestors. Then Duanmuhuai suddenly asked about Duomi recorded above. What happened at Nick’s house, and then went out without saying a word, and came back to tell them that everything was over......
Well, as long as you are not an idiot, you can guess a little bit.
"Please, please...Mr. Duanmu, are you an exorcist like your ancestors?"
"Similarly, there are many people doing similar work in this world. Of course, the danger is also quite dangerous. You have also seen that like that ancestor, it is not uncommon for the boat to capsize in the gutter. "
Duanmu Huai spread his hands and said.
"So I think if it's not particularly necessary, don't worry too much and live your life according to your own ideas. After all, this job is also very dangerous. As you can see, if you are not careful, you will end your descendants."
Duanmuhuai could probably guess a little about the Baroness's thoughts. She probably wanted to inherit her ancestor's last wish and become an investigator or exorcist again.
But to be honest, Duanmu Huai doesn't recommend this, it's just a normal inheritance. This thing might cut off the descendants of the nine clans. Like the Baskerville family, if the Baroness hadn't been pregnant with a child, the bloodline would have been cut off by now.
It's okay to be entangled. Now that the matter has been resolved, in Duanmu Huai's view, there is no need to jump into this deep pit on his own initiative.
After all, most of the investigators in this world were forced to get involved in the first place.
Anyone who really jumps in... Well, then we have to wonder if there is anything wrong with his ancestral bloodline. Especially those who often dream about diving into the sea, then they have to wonder if they are deep divers or something...
I don’t know if she was persuaded by Duanmuhuai, but the Baroness didn’t mention this topic again after that, and Duanmuhuai’s work could finally come to an end, and it was over.
In this way, a relatively stable Christmas came to an end.
The reason why it is said to be relatively stable is because the commotion on Christmas night still caused uneasiness among the residents of the town. After all, a sound like hundreds of dogs barking at the same time suddenly appeared in the town, causing many residents to panic. Some even called the police. Of course, because of the thick fog, the police did not dare to go out without permission. , finally the town residents ushered in the morning of a new day in panic.
Of course, nothing was found.
Compared to Duanmu Huai, Mary looked tired. To be honest, being chased by those monsters outside was nothing. Mary was used to it. But after returning to Baskerville Manor, her friend discovered that she was going out alone with a man late at night, which cost her her life. Although Mary had solemnly stated that she was just going for a walk,...
“As a lady, it’s not okay to go out alone with a man late at night!”
"That's right, Axie is also very worried. What if something happens to Mary!"
Uh... You guys probably think that Mr. Duanmu will do something rude to me.
Seeing her friend's worried expression, Mary also... felt like she couldn't say anything.
Although strictly speaking, she was already out when Duanmu Huai held her on her shoulders like a sack. If Charlie saw it, he would definitely faint on the spot.
Unfortunately, Duanmuhuai seemed completely unaware of Mary's troubles and left with Lorena after Christmas. The Baroness, who felt lonely because of this, invited Charlie and the others to stay for a few days... Well, this is not mentioned again.
When Duanmuhuai returned to his house in Wudu, he also received an unsigned black letter.
In the letter, there was only a card marked as a Class C personnel.
"Huh, it's done. This trip was not in vain."
Looking at the card in his hand, Duanmu Huai also breathed a sigh of relief. In this way, he changed from a Class D personnel to a Class C personnel. Not only did his authority rise to the point where he could approach some less dangerous containment objects, but he could even obtain a certain degree of special equipment.
In this way, he was one step closer to obtaining the manufacturing blueprint of the Reality Stabilization Anchor.
