Chapter 560: Human-Snake War

It goes without saying that the one that emerged from the cave was a snakeman. To be honest, this thing didn't look like a snake at all to Duanmu Huai. It looked more like a lizardman.

"Hey? Is this a snakeman? I thought I'd see something like Medusa."

See, even Mary thought so. Who named these things snakemen? When these things were born, snakes hadn't even appeared yet.

"Leave it to you and Lorena, no problem."

"Yes, no problem, please leave it to me!"

As long as the other party is not human, Mary doesn't seem to hesitate. Seeing this, Duanmu Huai nodded with satisfaction and then took a few steps back.

To be honest, most players actually prefer to recruit NPCs from worlds with relatively backward civilizations for the following reasons.

First, these people have less experience and are relatively easy to deceive.

Second, their civilization is relatively underdeveloped, so they will be surprised to see the player's space station and fleet, which will satisfy the player's inflated pretentious mentality.

Third, and most importantly, they are not likely to favor races other than humans.

People in these times have generally only seen humans, so once they see other races—especially those fierce, dangerous, and not very cute guys, they will only treat them as monsters at first, rather than as civilized creatures that exist on an equal footing with humans.

This is also why Duanmu Huai, Liya, and An have relatively good relations with their countries, but only maintain a certain cooperative relationship with the Star Alliance.

Because the Star Alliance itself is already a civilization that has gone beyond the stars, once they recognize the existence of alien civilizations, they will treat those aliens as equals. This is of course intolerable for the human supremacist Tribunal. The reason why Duanmu Huai let Zhen Jiling live broadcast on the Star Alliance network is also to brainwash the Star Alliance people and firmly lock their aesthetics at the human level.

In other words, even if these viewers become XPs who "like cute girls with furry ears and tails", it is better than being obsessed with those blue-skinned Asari female octopuses.

But in fact, there are alien factions within the Star Alliance. However, from the perspective of the Inquisition, whether as a player or as an inquisitor, they hope that their subordinates will regard other alien civilizations as either monster races or inferior creatures. In short, they must not think that those monsters exist on an equal footing with human civilization.

So from this point of view, Mary is actually very qualified. Although she still hesitates and wavers when facing humans, Mary can already do it without hesitation when facing monsters that do not look like humans. This is great.

Of course, people who have set foot in the interstellar era may think that this concept is too "racist" and represents a kind of "racial discrimination", but Duanmu Huai doesn't care. Humans are the most important, and everything else is unimportant. You can say whatever you want. I won't hesitate to throw an extermination order on those alien hybrids. Races other than humans are untrustworthy, and the less human they are, the less trustworthy they are.

After all, if the physiological structure is not like that of humans, it means that the two sides have nothing in common. So Duanmu Huai thought that the doctor was an idiot at the beginning. She actually wanted to make friends with the Na'vi. This is really stupid and retardant behavior. It's just as ridiculous as humans marrying sharks.

No matter how good the relationship between the two sides is, aliens are aliens. This relationship applies not only to humans and alien creatures, but also to humans and other creatures.

Just like people and dogs, some people like dogs and think they are smart, well-behaved, cute, and human. But even so, you can never guarantee whether the dog will bite you or others at any time.

In Duanmu Huai's view, it is enough to treat aliens like this. If you are too close, forget the difference between humans and dogs, and insist on letting dogs have human identity, that is another matter.

To be honest, the pro-alien faction within the Star Alliance is still very powerful. Lumiel has reported to Duanmu Huai several times. They said that "this is to better allow the Star Alliance to join the universe family" and asked other people not to discriminate against other alien races too much, and claimed that "the other party just looks different from us, but in fact we have the same feelings"... Hehe, since that's the case, why don't you run to the land of Geth and see if that group of artificial intelligences will have the same feelings as you, or tear you into pieces?

In the era of the human empire, this faction would have been uprooted by the Tribunal, and all of them would have been publicly executed by hanging on street lamps.

But now... If it weren't for knowing that the reapers would come sooner or later, Duanmu Huai couldn't help but want to take action.

Forget it, let's wait a little longer. When the reapers come, find a reason to send these people to the territories of those alien races. Since they like to communicate with aliens so much, they don't ask to be born on the same day of the same month of the same year, but to die on the same day of the same month of the same year.

While Duanmu Huai was thinking about this, Lorena and Mary had already cooperated to kill several snake people who came over. To be honest, just looking at the appearance of these snake people, it is hard to imagine that they were a race that had created a prosperous civilization on this planet before the dinosaur era and had made achievements in magic and technology.

After all, these snakemen are just like primitive people, holding spears and making disgusting hissing sounds. To be honest, ordinary humans would probably be scared when they see such monsters, but Lorena and Mary have experienced several battles, and of course they will not be scared by such bluffing monsters, and they will be completely eliminated in a few seconds.

"Speed ​​up, we must hurry."

Although these snake guards seem to just happen to come out to take a look, Duanmu Huai will not slow down. He said something and then continued to stride forward. After passing through a dark tunnel, the three of them came to another underground hall again.

"Wow......"

Seeing the scene in the hall in front of her, Mary widened her eyes in surprise again. This time, Duanmu Huai could not say that she was making a fuss. The reason was obvious. In fact, the scene in front of her was indeed surprising.

In the huge underground cave, the walls around were painted with ancient snakeman characters and sculptures, and on the huge natural stone pillar in the middle, a huge snake statue was hovering in it. In front of this huge stone snake statue is a huge stone altar, with incense burners on both sides. In addition, there are translucent things hanging from the ceiling that look like cocoons.

Under the dim light, you can see a snake-like shadow curled up inside.

"Hiss... ..."

However, at this moment, an unbelievable scene happened.

The stone snake statue that looked like it was wrapped around a stone pillar suddenly began to move slowly. It widened its eyes and stared at Duanmu Huai and others fiercely, then opened its mouth, and then countless snakes sprayed out of the stone snake's mouth like a waterfall, covering the ground in a moment and crawling towards Duanmu Huai and others.

"Ah————!"

Seeing this scene, Lorena and Mary couldn't help but scream. Not only did Mary's face turn blue, but even Lorena took a few steps back holding the Holy Scripture—this was also normal. After all, these snakes were only of ordinary size. Even if Lorena wanted to attack them, it would be a little bit short.

Only Duanmu Huai stood there, staring at the snakes in front of him, and at the same time did not forget to tease the two.

"Why, didn't you say you were not afraid of snakes?"

"That has its limits! Who wouldn't be afraid of so many snakes!"

"There are so many snakes, what should we do, Mr. Duanmu?"

Mary was even more frightened and stood there, at a loss.

"Nothing to do, I want to see if they dare to come over!"

Duanmu Huai still stood there, then he stared at the snakes and snorted coldly.

"Get lost!!"

Accompanied by Duanmu Huai's angry shout, the next moment the snakes that were advancing forward finally stopped, but they did not leave. Instead, they stuck out their tongues not far from Duanmu Huai and made a "hissing" sound, just like an army under command, confronting Duanmu Huai from a distance.

"Wow... I didn't expect Mr. Duanmu to be so powerful that he could even scare snakes."

"What's a snake? The Knight used to scare ghosts. When we were with him, even ghosts didn't dare to come to us."

"Hey? Is that so?"

"…………………………"

Hearing the conversation behind, Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes helplessly.

How come Lorena also has a tendency to approach Ogis?

But now, he has more important things to do.

"Come out, Iger, I know you are here."

Duanmu Huai stared at the front and said lightly.

"Boom boom boom..."

As soon as Duanmu Huai finished speaking, he heard a roar from underground, and then saw the huge stone snake wrapped around the pillar in front of him slowly move. It quietly fell from the pillar, then raised its head and stared at Duanmu Huai. Duanmu Huai also stared at it, clenching his fists.

Then...

"Hiss!!!"

The stone snake opened its mouth and screamed, then it flew out like an arrow and pounced directly at Duanmu Huai. At the same time, hundreds of thousands of snakes also made the same sound, opened their mouths and showed their fangs, and pounced at Duanmu Huai.

Yo, what do you think I'm easy to bully?

Seeing this scene, Duanmu Huai's face also sank. Although they are all Old Ones, the snake god Yig and Graki are completely different levels of existence. Perhaps in its eyes, it is just an outsider who overestimates his own abilities?

Very good, I will let you see what the God of Destruction is!

Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai clenched his fists, and black flames instantly burst out from his body. Then Duanmu Huai punched the ground!

"Boom!!!"

The huge fist hit the ground heavily, and then the black flames spread out like ripples in a pond. Not only did the originally smooth ground break into pieces, but under the impact of the black flames, the snakes that followed were directly reduced to ashes. The huge shock wave made the stone snakes that rushed over raise their heads and stop their movements.

However, at this moment, Duanmu Huai had already shaken his body and came in front of the stone snake. Then he clenched his fists and punched the stone snake in front of him!

"Ola! Ola Ola Ola Ola Ola Ola!!!!"

Punches hit the stone snake like a storm. The stone snake, which was carved from hard stone, was like a sandbag at this moment, allowing Duanmu Huai's attacks to fall on it mercilessly.

"Ola————!"

With the last roar, Duanmu Huai's clenched right fist hit the stone snake's seven inches again. The huge stone snake was hit by Duanmu Huai and left the ground. It flew backwards and hit the stone pillar heavily, and then collapsed completely.

"Wow........."

Seeing this, Mary was stunned.

Strictly speaking, this was the first time she witnessed Duanmu Huai's unreserved burst of fighting power. Before, when she was in Antarctica, because her attention was on her friends, Mary didn't care too much about this aspect, but now...

"Crash."

However, at this moment, suddenly, a light sound came from the ruins of the stone snake, and then a figure slowly walked out of the dusty debris.

It looked like a male body that was about as strong as Duanmu Huai, with a long snake tail behind it and dark green scales all over its body. Its head was also like a snake, and the monster stared at Duanmu Huai, with a long snake tongue spitting out of its mouth, and two golden eyes emitting a cold glow.

Just seeing it there, Mary and Lorena felt cold all over. Just being swept by its gaze, it felt as if countless snakes were crawling on the surface of their skin. Fortunately, Duanmu Huai blocked the sight of the snake-headed man by leaning sideways, which made the two of them feel relieved.

"You finally came out, Yige, I thought you would hide."

"Stupid mortal."

The snake god Yige stared at Duanmu Huai and said lightly.

"You don't understand at all what the price of angering me is."

"It doesn't matter."

Duanmu Huai clenched his fists again and moved his joints.

"I came here for only one purpose, which is to completely destroy you and your deformed descendants... Now, I think you are ready to die."

"Stupid."

Iger raised his hands and showed his sharp claws.

"What you did is just dragging you into destruction!"

"Well said, because...destruction is my strong point!"

Before he finished speaking, Duanmu Huai suddenly rushed forward, and at the same time he clenched his fists and swung them hard at Iger!
