Chapter 97 The Child of the Beast God

"Wait a minute." Yeyue suddenly shouted to stop, but I had already jumped out.

"Wow!" A big tree next to me suddenly waved its thick branches and swept towards me. I was forced to spread my wings and somersault back in the air, but I was hit by a vine before I landed. interception.

Yeyue's crystal goggles suddenly flashed, and the piece of rattan was petrified in mid-air. Adepana also reacted quickly and followed me with an arrow. The branch chasing me in front suddenly burned after being hit by the arrow. I stretched out my hand and used the petrified rattan as a crossbar. I spun around on the pole and jumped up to the big tree behind. Before my feet could stand still, I felt something hit my butt. The force of this thing was not small, and it knocked me away, and the branches in front of me were also swept over.

"Be careful." Jibeiyar saw that I was being attacked but was unable to help, so he had to remind me to pay attention to the attacks behind me.

I stood eternity in front of me in the air, and used the force of my forward motion to chop the branch vertically. "Break." There was a click, and the branch that was about to hit me was cut from the middle. After landing, I turned around and threw out a sword rainbow, and the big tree that hit me was cut at the waist and fell down. "Why do you think I'm easy to bully?"

"Watch the back." The Son of the Night suddenly shouted.

"Blade Storm!" As soon as I turned around, the sword wind flew randomly. In fact, I didn't see the enemy at all, I just knocked out the sword wind in one breath. The flying sword wind was like a razor, cutting down a large piece of the forest behind, and the sawdust and mud seemed to have hit something in the flying chaos. The phantom directly added hints to my vision. He also noticed something was wrong at the location I suspected and directly marked a circle on that object. "Where to run." Two and a half months flew over with white flames of life, and everything along the way was burned. The phantom suddenly caught fire all over and turned into a human-shaped ball of fire.

The human-shaped fire ball struggled there for a while and began to get smaller and smaller, and was finally completely burned with nothing left. I put half a moon on the fire, and all the flames were sucked back into the sword.

Rikard was dumbfounded and muttered: "What a terrifying attack power."

Lauder patted the Son of Night next to him: "Didn't you say he was an animal tamer?"

Night Child said matter-of-factly: "That's right. He has dual professions. When he first entered the game, he was a beast tamer and a black warrior."

"No wonder it's so powerful."

I stood on the root of the tree and said to them: "I think the monsters around here seem to be quite dense. It may not be the normal situation in the forest. The temple you are looking for is probably nearby."

Jibeiyar said: "Our mission is not like this. The mission report said that the Earth Temple is in a mysterious forest."

“Isn’t this swamp mysterious enough?”

Saint Mafiana said angrily: "If you don't want to take us away, just say so? Jibeiyar, let's go find it ourselves."

Jibeiyar looked at me a little apologetically: "Then let's separate here? Let's go find the temple by ourselves."

I didn't explain but nodded in agreement. To be honest, I really don't want to take them with me. At the very least they seriously affected my movement speed. When Jibeiyar saw that I didn't try to persuade him, he didn't want to rely on us. Several other people followed him and left our team and crawled towards the side of the forest in the direction where the monsters came from just now. According to the general concept, the place where monsters are protected is generally an important place. Since the monsters come from there, if there is not a monster nest there, there must be something that needs protection over there.

After sending them away, we moved significantly faster, and the steel claws almost jumped forward in the forest. The swamp was no obstacle to us. It's just that a large number of toxic bubbles emerge from the mud from time to time, which is annoying, and the stench of rotting animal carcasses really makes people want to vomit.

After crossing the swamp area, the contract goddess gave us new directions. As long as she remembered correctly, we should be almost at the target point. The scenery here in the swamp area is different from the outside. The scenery here is much better than outside, and there are so many kinds of creatures that you can't even see them. We seem to have entered a super zoo, where all the creatures that only appear in children's sweet dreams are gathered here. Here, they still appear in groups.

The Nightborne looked around like a child. Even Yeyue was a little too excited to control herself, but I didn't feel anything at all. I don’t know why I don’t seem to get excited easily. Maybe it’s a side effect of my body. If I’m too calm and don’t act impulsively, I’ll lose even the passion.

"Contract Goddess, you said the God of Sale lives here?"

"Yes. We lived here at the beginning. And...!" The Contract Goddess suddenly stopped and looked forward with her eyes wide open.

The Son of the Night and I also turned to look ahead in confusion. As a result, we saw a man-made building, or rather the ruins of a building. This is a building about the size of a small stadium. Looking at the remaining half of the pillars, we can guess that it was relatively majestic back then, but its glory is no longer there.

The stone pillar hugged by the four people stood on the ground less than two meters high, and there were countless rubbles scattered on the surrounding ground. The three-foot-thick stone wall is even more miserable than the stone pillars. Only a few sections of the foundation wall as high as the threshold are still there, and the rest are gone. Miraculously, there is still a broken sculpture standing on the ground in the center of the ruins. However, it is a miracle that it can still stand there. The collapse of the roof did not destroy it. The only thing that surprised me was that the shape of the statue was a little strange. Generally speaking, the statues in the temple should look like that god. But why does this statue look like a ball?

The Son of the Night also discovered the problem. "Ziri, what do you think this statue looks like?"

I shook my head: "It looks like a ball, or a sphere. Who knows! Maybe this is Picasso's creation."

The Contract Goddess still looks directly at the sculpture. "That is the sculpture of the beast god's body."

"What does the beast god look like?" It's hard to believe that the beast god is actually a ball.

The Contract Goddess slowly said: "The Beast God is not a sphere, and this is not a ball. Among the three forms of the Beast God, this is the original form and generally does not appear. I am afraid you are not unfamiliar with the other two forms. First The form is the basic form of the beast god that is half human and half beast, and the second form is what you call Chimera."

"Chimera?" I asked in surprise: "Is the beast god Chimera?"

"The God of Beasts represents all beasts. And Chimera is a creature made up of the tissues of many kinds of creatures. That is the real God of Beasts. But humans are always fussy about things they have never seen. They see beasts The Queen of Gods found many biological parts in him. So they thought it was a monster, so the name Chimera became synonymous with the combined monster. In fact, this is not surprising at all. Chimera is just a combination of its own parts. The dismantling of the forms created a large number of beasts. People are accustomed to these beasts but regard them as monsters. They are really a group of inexplicable creatures."

The Son of the Night walked over and stroked the stones of the ruins. "This thing looks very old. The surface is covered with plants, and it's almost hard to tell it's a stone."

The Contract Goddess said sadly: "This temple collapsed before I left. After my own temple collapsed, I lived here with the Beast God for a while. Unfortunately, even this temple collapsed later."

"Why are you so miserable?" Ye Zhizi asked casually.

The Contract Goddess sighed: "That period was the darkest age. The gods were competing for territory and parishes, and everyone was in a mess. Even if we, the non-mainstream small sects, were attached to the big sects, we still had to preach enough support, so we could only It’s unimaginable the hardships of surviving in a place like this. Fortunately, the War in the God Realm is over.”

"It turns out that it's not easy for gods!" The Son of the Night sighed.

"It's not easy for everyone. In this world, we can only strive to move forward and survive. No one can really relax except the dead."

The Contract Goddess nodded: "Zi Ri is right. Even a god cannot relax at will."

"Who is it?" Yeyue suddenly called out.

Suddenly a giant beast jumped out from among the trees to our side. Judging from its appearance, it is a canine monster. And it is also a very powerful attacking monster. This guy is bigger than Bailang, like a calf. The fur with black and white markings is simply a natural camouflage. No wonder it was discovered so close. But the most terrifying thing is the two canine teeth protruding from this guy's mouth. The exposed part of the two canine teeth is almost seven or eight centimeters long. It would not be a joke to be bitten.

"Roar...!" The beast roared, making my ears numb. This guy seems to be of a high level.

I looked at the Contract Goddess. "Is this the guardian beast of the Beast God?" Since there are ruins of the Beast God in this place, he should be nearby. If he accidentally hurts his guard, even if he is willing to repay the favor according to the agreement of the ring, he will definitely give it to us. Find some trouble.

The contract goddess listened to my question and replied: "This should not be the guardian beast of the beast god. I remember that his guardian beast is a giant bear. But it feels like this beast has the power of the beast god, which is really strange."

Ye Zhizi asked quickly: "You have been gone for so many years, maybe it won't matter if you change!"

The Contract Goddess shook her head and said: "The guardianship contract is lifelong just like your magic pet contract. Unless the beast god himself dies, due to the effect of the contract, even if the bear dies, it will be pulled back again and transform into a new giant bear. , so it is impossible to replace the new guardian creature."

"Who broke into the territory of our beast god?" A huge voice suddenly came from a distance and quickly approached us. When this sentence was finished, the guy who spoke had already appeared in the ruins in front of us.

There were two creatures standing on the stone pillars of the ruins. The one on the left was a creature with a lion's head and human body. The sound just now was obviously made by him. There is a woman on the pillar next to him. Although this woman is basically no different from a human being. But there is a furry and striped tail behind her. And her ears were pointed and pointed upward.

The Contract Goddess asked carefully: "Are you the guards here?"

"Guard?" The lion-headed man laughed. "Who can touch a guard of our level?"

The Contract Goddess still wanted to ask, so I stopped her directly. He opened his mouth and asked: "Do you know Chimera?"

"Do you know my father?" the lion-headed man asked in surprise, and he jumped up to us. "You don't seem to be a god. Why do you know my father?"

"I don't know your father, but she does." I pushed the contract goddess out. "She is a contract goddess. She used to be good friends with your father."

"Are you the contract goddess?" The woman also jumped over and asked excitedly: "My mother often talked about you before, but I didn't expect you to come back."

I asked the contract goddess in confusion: "Does the beast god still have a wife?"

Ye Zhizi rushed to say: "You are really stupid. How did the two of them appear when the beast god has no wife?"

The contract goddess said awkwardly: "Actually, the beast god really doesn't have a wife."

I pointed at the two orcs in front of me in surprise. "Then how did they get here?"

The lion-headed human on behalf of the contract goddess explained: "Actually, our parents are the same person. He is androgynous. I am used to calling him dad, and my sister is used to calling her mom."

Wow, the beast god is actually a hermaphrodite. I suddenly thought about the origin of the strange shape of the sculpture next to me. What the sculpture depicts must be the lowest form of cellular life. The Beast God is a subordinate god to the Goddess of Life, and he should have some of the power of the Goddess of Life. The goddess of life controls the most basic essence of life. The beast god should be a more advanced microorganism. The lower the level, the closer to the origin, or the more powerful it is. The body of the beast god is a microorganism, so it divides and reproduces.

It suddenly occurred to me that the problem seemed serious. "Is your father, the beast god, a splinter breeding ground?" I hope my guess is wrong.

"Yes." The woman answered quickly, and my hope was shattered.

The Contract Goddess finally reacted. "So the Beast God has...?"

The lion-headed man nodded: "After we were born, he only left a little consciousness to teach us some necessary knowledge and then dissipated."

What a bolt from the blue! We traveled all the way to South America to find the Beast God to complete the task of the Ring of Repayment, but the Beast God is no longer there. Wait, if the Beast God split into two brothers and sisters, would the status of the Beast God be passed on at the same time?

"Has one of you two taken over the position of Beast God?"

The lion-headed man nodded: "It's not who it is, but the two of us. Now together we are equal to the beast god."

I quickly showed them the gratitude ring: "Then this thing. Do you know it?"

The two of them glanced at each other and nodded together. The lion-headed man said cheerfully: "This is the ring of repayment. According to the agreement, we need to help you fulfill your wish, but the wish must be within our ability."

"Great." It's really confusing. If they don't know this thing, they will be in trouble.

The Son of the Night asked: "Since your repayment is accomplished by making a wish, are there any restrictions on the terms?"

The female half beast god replied: "There is no limit on the number of wishes. But according to the level of the ring, we can only consume all the current mana to fulfill your wishes. Although our mana will recover quickly after consumption, we will Calculated based on the part consumed, as long as the total amount reaches the upper limit of all mana at one time, we will no longer fulfill your wish."

Nightborne shook his head. "I don't quite understand."

I interjected: "You don't understand this? Let's use an analogy. This is like buying something. Your money is fixed. Are you willing to use it to buy a truck of toothpicks or a computer? Anyway, it doesn't matter. With so much money, it’s up to you to use it as you like. They will fulfill our wishes according to their own mana limit until it is used up.”

Ye Zhizi quickly asked: "Then the upper limit you are talking about is the upper limit for one of you two or both of you together?"

The lion-headed man said: "Of course together. Each of our mana is half of my father's. Only together can we fulfill your wish."

"But how far can your power fulfill your wishes?" As a businessman, knowing your opponent's bottom line is the most important thing. When you know the bottom line, you can pursue your best interests while staying safe. That's the way business is, nothing better can be done. Things are too expensive and no one buys them. If you sell too cheaply, you won’t make money. Finding a balance is the key. The mana of the Beast God is fixed, and I also need to know a balance point to decide what wish to fulfill. If there is only a fraction left in the end, no wish will come true. Wouldn’t that be a loss?

The lion-headed man scratched his head and said: "How do you want me to answer this! Although I know the strength of my magic power, I don't know what wishes you want to make!"

"Then when I tell you my wish, can you first tell me how much mana it costs?"

"Of course."

"Then can I not execute this wish first but wait until I choose the wish?"

"It's up to you."

It seems that the beast god is much more generous than the two vampires Arni and Miluole. But then again, it's because he is too generous. That's why we ended up in this situation. Although Arni and Miluole are evil-hearted. But that is the true quality of a leader. A ruler can be tolerant internally, but he must not be tolerant externally. If you are tolerant internally, the ruled will say that the leader is benevolent; if you are tolerant externally, the others will say you are stupid.

I said to the lion-headed man: "In this case, can we find a place to finish him as soon as possible?"

"Then come with us."

The lion-headed man turned around and led us towards the forest. His sister used a strange language and said something to the beast. The big guy immediately jumped into the forest and disappeared.

After a while we were taken to a large lake with a small island in the middle. We were taken to the island and discovered that the island was actually a compressed space. The island that looks small from the outside turns out to be extremely huge when you get up there. We entered the center of the island, where there are some simple daily necessities and they are all made of stone. The life of the Beast God is indeed incomparable to that of the Temple of Light. One has a more luxurious living standard than the emperor, and the other has a living standard that is even more backward than that of primitive people.

In addition to stone tables and benches, this place also has a large bed made of stone. Although the bed is large, the cushions on it are a bit unbearable. The slate bed was only covered with some dry fine-leafed plants as soft cushions. Not to mention the velvet princess bed in Al Nidi, international refugees can at least get a blanket to wrap themselves in. This is really too miserable. I guess a straw pile is more comfortable than this bed.

"You guys live here?" I asked the lion-headed man.

The lion-headed man’s sister said: “It’s very nice here.”

The lion-headed man also said proudly: "This bed used to be made of stones, and it was very uncomfortable to sleep on. Later I invented this mattress. You see, it is so comfortable to fall asleep softly on these withered plants."

Ye Zhizi leaned close to me and whispered: "Hey, Ziri, is there a need for a poverty alleviation plan here?"

I responded in a low voice: "This kind of place has no development value, but these two brothers and sisters don't seem to understand anything."

Yeyue suddenly stretched her head over. "Master, you don't want to abduct people, do you?"

"I just want to abduct people and trick the two of them back to Essinger. At least I can get some benefits for us."

The Son of the Night sighed: "Hey. The poor lamb will be dragged back to the cave by the big wild wolf again!"

"Go, this is called poverty alleviation. Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand."

Yeyue suddenly raised her head and asked the female beast goddess: "We haven't introduced each other yet. My name is Yeyue, this is my master Ziri, and this is my master's friend, the Son of the Night, the contract goddess, as you all know."

The female beast god said: "We are two individuals separated from our mother, so our names are also derived from our mother's name. My name is Kimei, and my brother's name is Kira. Together they are the current name Kimera."

I quickly started getting closer. "Kira. Do you brother and sister sleep together? Why is there just one bed here?"

"This bed is huge, why do we need to separate it?" Kira was really simple. They don't seem to have any inhibitions about this.

My purpose is to get closer. Since they don't know, I don't need to cause trouble. He quickly changed his words: "You don't even have a shed on this bed, what will you do when it rains?"

"It won't rain here." Kimei said: "My mother has created a permanent blocking space here, and the rain will not fall in. The plants on the island all rely on the water from the surrounding lakes to survive. .”

"What about your food? God doesn't seem to want to eat, does he?" Vina seemed to need to eat, and so did Arni and Michele. The only difference between them is that they eat less than the average person, but they do not eat nothing at all. Even Heaven's Grain Avoidance Technique only reduces the demand for food, not really eating nothing. Gods like beast gods themselves are relatively low-level. And the racial characteristics should be that they need to eat.

Kimei smiled and clapped her hands, and the beast that left just now came back with a big beast in its mouth. "With Gangya helping us hunt, food here won't be a problem at all." As she said that, she took the beast and tore off a piece of red meat and handed it to me: "Want some?"

faint! Although I am not allergic to body parts or bloody scenes, I do not eat raw meat. This kid, Ye Zhizi, even made trouble for me: "Ziri, please eat more. I'm specially prepared to treat you as a guest."

I glanced sideways at the Son of the Night, a cold light flashed in my eyes, and the Son of the Night suddenly trembled. I smiled and pushed the piece of meat away: "Thank you, I'm not hungry! Give it to the Son of the Night, he kept shouting that he was hungry on the way here. He can eat this whole beast by himself."

Kimei is indeed simply cute. She immediately happily handed the whole beast to the child of the night: "Eat. We have a lot more here."

The expression on Ye Zhizi's face was as if he had eaten a dead fly. He held it in for a long time before suddenly thinking of a solution. "...Ah, I'm too hungry, and now I can't eat anymore. I'll put it away first and eat it when I'm hungry." As he said that, he quickly opened the Phoenix Dragon Space and threw the meat in.

Kimei smiled and said, "I'll help you prepare more later."

The child of the night could only nod awkwardly.

Kimei and Kira have no evil intentions at all. They believe whatever others say. They are as pure as lotus flowers. It was only when I was with them that I really felt like I was in black. Dark from the inside out. The sadness behind the glitz cannot be escaped by those of us in modern society.

"Kira." I called the lion-headed man to me. "Isn't your place a little too crude?"

"It's great!" Kira has never seen the luxurious world, and he doesn't know that everything is not perfect.

"Kira, Kimei. You may not think of the life here. But in fact, it is incomparable with the outside world. I think you might as well go back to my place with me? The conditions there are much better than here. Now, and there are only the two of you here, you can meet a lot of friends outside. What do you think?"

Before I came here, I had told the Contract Goddess that I wanted her to help me win over these lower-level gods. Now when she heard my words, she immediately understood that I was trying to win over these two beast gods. She also quickly helped me lobby for her own treatment: "Kimei, you two are my best friends now. I live in the city of Ziri now. The conditions there are much better than here. Why don't you come over? Come with me. This way I can take more care of you. After all, you are also the continuation of Chimera's life, and I should do my part for you."

Kira said cheerfully: "I have no problem, she is my sister...!"

Jimei said: "I can't bear to part with Gangya."

I laughed. "I didn't say you can't bring Gangya with you. And it's not like you won't come back. I think the environment on this island is pretty good. How about I build a city here? What do you think?"

"Build a city?" Kira pointed at his feet: "Here?"

"What's wrong? Isn't it possible?" Isn't the Beast God asking me for land occupation fees?

"No." Kira shook his head: "I just want to ask what a city is?"

"Huh?" My jaw almost dropped. "This... the city is... how do you want me to explain this! The city is... it is... there are many houses gathered together, and there are many, many people living in them. Build a very tall building outside these houses. The wall surrounds these houses and it becomes a city.”

Kira nodded: "Oh, so the city is just a lot of houses surrounded by a wall. But, I know the wall. But what are houses?"

faint. "Didn't you say that Chimera once left Genshen to teach you some necessary knowledge? Why didn't he teach you what a house is?"

Kimei said: "My mother wanted to teach me, but her original god only existed for 30 days. My brother and I learned surprisingly slowly. My mother planned to teach us everything she knew in 30 days. But then we learned too slowly, so she had to choose some of the most important things to teach first. As a result, the things we knew were paragraph by paragraph, some we knew and some we didn't."

Education is not like a factory producing screws. Each student has his own characteristics, but teachers unilaterally plan their own education plans. As a result, unqualified students like Kimei and Kira appear. The beast god Chimera must have used his adult intelligence to calculate the time required. Unexpectedly, the newly split child did not have the intelligence of his adult body, so the speed was horribly slow. It was a blessing to be able to learn all the words. .

Looks like Kemei to me. "The things you brothers and sisters have taught you are too 'messy' and you don't know a lot of basic common sense. I think you should go to my city. I can arrange for someone to teach you. There is no time limit and I can teach you until you know how to do it."

"Is it really possible? I want to learn. The things my mother taught me were all messy, and I just want to learn them all from scratch." Kimei shouted out almost without thinking.
