Chapter 143:
The city of Lamb, the Devil’s Cave, is actually not completely empty.
When Li Pan and Duan Kecheng drove to the city center...where did the car come from? I snatched it from the roadside. Duan Kecheng said that he couldn't fly in the sky because of "disguise", so he actually wanted to walk all the way from the suburbs into the city...
In short, after driving to the city center, Li Pan gradually became able to stand among the crowd of walking dead. Saw some 'other stuff'.
Those 'things' were definitely not humans, but just like them, 'extraterrestrial demons' dressed in human skin.
Although the body is barely wrapped in a skin and looks like a 'human', colorful energy radiation, liquid liquid tentacles, shadow scales, horns, and all kinds of messy inhuman organs will be exposed from under the human skin.
It's like the game characters are stacked on top of each other. Even if you don't use magical powers or have a sharp eye to see their true form, you can still recognize them at a glance.
However, according to Duan Kecheng, it is rude to casually see through someone's true identity and is an act of looking for trouble. Brother, don’t just look at it.
Because the people in the Demon Cave have the superpower to travel across all realms, they do business with various civilizations and races, and everyone who comes is a guest. Don't cause trouble on the master's territory.
So under Duan Kecheng's guidance, Li Pan drove to a five-star hotel in the city center.
Solomon Hotel, No. 666.
"It's right here, the lair of the Devil's Nest."
Duan Kecheng and Li Pan entered the hotel. The hotel's welcoming doormen were also inhuman beings with horns and tails, or snake eyes or animal eyes. The guests dining in the surrounding auditorium were also demons from the outside world. There were some mosaics on the plates. Well, it was really a mosaic. It was probably the effect of magic. They probably ate some indescribable things.
"Good night, distinguished guest, how can I help you?" The
skin-wearing customer service man at the counter was well-groomed and did not burst his skin, revealing some scales and emitting some light, but his eyes were dark. There are no whites of his eyes, as if he has a new fashionable prosthetic eye.
Duan Kecheng flicked his fingers and took out a gold coin from his fingertips. The gold coin had runes on one side and a goat-horned devil on the other side.
"Get a room and ask Belia to serve our brother... Jie Jie Jie Jie!"
Li Pan frowned and smiled sideways with his eyes like his younger brother who was a rapist.
The customer service put on a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, looked at the gold coin, then bowed with a smile,
"Dear customer, Belia has not been resurrected yet, why don't you name another agent?"
Duan Kecheng looked disappointed,
"It's all Brother, you are too harsh and you really kill people. Then you can arrange any one. We are here to do business and call someone who knows how to appraise treasures. Oh, by the way, at least
find a marquis with territory, otherwise we It can't eat the food. Jie Jie!"
"Yes, your room is ready for you."
The customer service made a call and then respectfully presented two room cards.
Li Pan looked at the room card, which had the name and logo of Solomon Hotel printed on it, as well as a ring. Then he blinked, turned over the card, and saw a golden key.
Solomon's gold key is larger than the silver key. The key handle is made into a ring, and it looks like it can be worn like a ring.
Duan Kecheng seemed to have been here many times, and he took Li Pan to the elevator by swiping his card easily.
This elevator does not go up, but down, from the lobby down, U1U2, all the way to U2513261...
Well, either the elevator display is wrong, or it is some kind of space magic.
After coming out of the elevator, it is still a hotel guest room. The floor is covered with carpets. On both sides are guest room doors and various oil paintings. There is one hanging directly opposite each door, and it seems that every painting is a magic oil painting. It will An animated GIF, and the content of the paintings is, without exception, hell.
Various skin colors, various appearances, various human or human-like civilizations were brutally exterminated and slaughtered for various reasons. Mass extinctions caused by various reasons such as plague, famine, war, execution, massacre, fire, flood, asteroid impact, etc.
To be honest, when painting the picture of destruction, the inspirations of these heavenly artists are really endless and endless.
Duan Kecheng flicked the doorway casually, and the doorway turned into a golden butterfly, flapping its wings and flying forward quietly, leading the two of them to a door at the end of the corridor.
Li Pan turned his head and looked at the oil painting at the door. The painting depicts the scene of the continental plate rupturing. Kingdoms on land collapsed in the earthquake, and countless creatures and the glorious civilization they once created fell into the bottomless abyss. .
Duan Kecheng opened the door and found that the room was just an ordinary five-star hotel suite.
"Let's wait here, brother. It also comes with a fruit platter. Do you want to eat an apple?"
Li Pan walked to the window and looked outside. The scene outside turned out to be the city center block when they came, far away Pedestrians and cars can be seen traveling through the city.
"Is this... holographic projection? Or is it a space power? Or is it an illusion?"
Duan Kecheng gnawed on an apple and lay down on the window, "I don't know. This is a special skill of the Devil's Crow. There are only a few people among the Devil's Crow. They are magicians with space powers."
Li Pan turned to look at him, "Human, are they human?" "
Yes?" Duan Kecheng gnawed on an apple, "I heard that they were indeed human before, but I don't know How did he get lost in the virtual abyss, drifted to a different world, was exposed to special cosmic radiation, and underwent genetic mutation, slowly turning into a human-like ghost. His skin and hands and feet have changed to adapt to the environment, but his basic appearance, The core organs are still similar to
those of human beings." Li Pan recalled the appearance of Belia and couldn't help frowning, "Is that similar to human beings?"
Duan Kecheng also knew what he was thinking, "That's not her original appearance, it was made by the Demon Cave Civilization The magic weapon is equivalent to armor.
Are the materials that can be collected in each world different? Civilization can only develop based on the materials that can be used at hand. For example, my brother likes to make metal magic weapons. Our place used to use various jade. The material is stone, and the people in the Demon Cave use lamb skin."
"Lamb skin? Is lamb skin like that? What exactly is lamb?"
"Lamb... wait, he seems to have a magic weapon here. You can watch the introductory video... Huh? ? I remember this magic weapon. She raised her hand and waved it like this last time..." "
...You have to press the switch."
"Oh! As expected of the big brother! The magic weapon in the magic cave can also find out its secrets at a glance! He is really smart. Unparalleled, breathtaking!"
"This is just a remote control... Oh, I'll do it myself."
So Li Pan grabbed the remote control to watch the hotel's TV program, and quickly found the record of 'Lamb'.
After the playback started, the customer service staff at the front desk of the hotel just appeared in the camera, and then took a whiteboard, wrote and drew, and introduced the main agricultural product 'lamb' of Mokuzhong like a teacher giving a lecture.
His crayon drawings are really abstract, and I don’t know if it’s because his hands are shaking or something else. The things he draws have seven or eight legs and tentacles, and he also blackens the picture with large areas of oil paint like a psychotic person. It’s mentally polluting just to look at it. .
Well, in short, it's an existence that lives in the 'interstitial'.
It cannot be called a 'creature', because this thing can exist in the endless abyss and chaos, and there is no so-called genetic code. It is obviously different from the 'creature' in the general sense.
According to the research of the demon cave people, these things are a combination of the remaining thoughts of those dead worlds, crawling out of the ruins of ruined civilizations and the remains of human beings, the remaining despair, unwillingness, pain, crazy will, and Something in the gap combines, an existence born from the darkness.
Some people say that this is the spirit of death in the world, while others say that it is the resentment of the extinct collective body of human consciousness. Some people say that it is something that is attracted and summoned by human despair, crawling out from higher dimensions and darker abyss.
In short, these existences are large or small, some are young, some are ancient, and do not have a certain shape or appearance. They prey on each other, hybridize with each other, and merge with each other, just like plankton in the void. And the bottom of Xuyuan's food chain is the 'lamb'.
"Why a sheep? Doesn't it have a fixed shape?"
"I don't know, maybe it's because the first one that everyone in the Devil's Nest saw had hooves and horns, and it looked like a lamb. Anyway, it became a convention later on, and it even became a certain It is the totem worship of a civilization."
Perhaps this is the case. The bones of scientific civilization are iron and the blood is oil. There is no doubt that human civilization is built on the Lamb.
Although they don’t know how they do it, it is obviously the secret of their civilization. Not only can the demons hunt, but they can even manipulate and raise lambs, and use the skin, flesh, bones and blood of the lambs to develop a strange civilization that has never been seen before.
And what's interesting is that the lambs that represent destruction in other worlds can actually live in peace with them and be used by them. Even the experts of the divine religion can't figure out the cause and effect.
So even these awesome demon sects who are coaxing and conquering the heavens have to possess their bodies and trade with them on an equal footing. According to Duan Kecheng's description, it's like the primitive tribes that occupied the Silk Road. You can only give them a small fortune because people in other places are really not adapted to life in Xuyuan.
However, the divine religion now has many ways to use lambs. Therefore, seeing that there are almost no usable materials on Earth in 0791, Duan Kecheng plans to trade the company's monsters for some lambs.
While talking, there was a knock on the door, and the people from the Demon Cave had arrived. Li Pan sat upright, secretly concentrating on gathering energy to deal with the demons of another world...
"Hey, hello, gentlemen~~ My name is Jimoni, thank you for taking care of my little sister's business~~"
The person who came in was three... Well, it seems She is some kind of resident lady who is engaged in the outsourcing service industry.
Maybe this is the skin disguise she used. In short, she looks like a call girl wearing a low-cut dress and heavy makeup. Except for the dark eyes, she doesn't have any other horns, tail, hooves, small wings or anything like that.
Duan Kecheng said, "Jie Jie Jie! A Duke is here! I'm very satisfied! You've served our brothers well and I'll give you extra time! Jie Jie Jie Jie!" Seeing Li Pan squinting at him from the side, Duan Kecheng hurriedly sent a message
,
"Brother, you should also smile twice to show your friendliness. Don't scare others."
Your sister is so stubborn that it will only make her more scary!
Li Pan had no choice but to follow the local customs and say "Jie Jie" twice to deal with it.
"I, Li Xuehong, please take care of me when we meet you for the first time." This
is probably not the first time Jimoni has dealt with people from the Divine Cult. She is not embarrassed. She smiles gracefully and takes out her business card from her small purse. "It turns out to be the Divine Cult
. Master Li, I'm glad to meet you. My little sister is an angel from the Devil's Cave, Duke level. This is my contract."
Li Pan took it and took a look. The business card was densely packed with otherworldly characters. It was indeed a contract, and then He blinked and saw the words twisting and changing like worms, changing into a format he had seen before.
Jimoni
ACA Antique Collectors Association
S56 site manager
DU level collector
"Collector..." Li Pan looked at her, "Did you join the ACA individually, or are you all the ACA?"
Jimoni was very interested. Da Dao,
"This master seems to be very clear about the affairs of Tianwaitian..."
Duan Kecheng, "Of course! My eldest brother has great powers! He knows everything! He knows everything! Jie Jie!"
Jimoni and Li Pan were silent He glanced at him, then turned around and said,
"I don't dare to hide it from the two masters. We, the Abyss Demon Clan, have signed a contract with the Outer Clan, accepted a joint venture, established a business alliance, and become a core member of the ACA Collectors Association. We have joined Their trade agreement between the heavens.
Now our goods can travel all over the world and all over the heavens. As long as you can afford the price, I will have whatever you want in all the heavens and realms." "You join
. Trade agreement??"
For a moment, the hair on Li Pan's back stood up.
The company doesn't know about this.
Doesn’t joining the Heavenly Trade Agreement require a show of hands vote by the Security Committee?
The dignified committee members didn’t know that the committee had signed a contract with a competitor behind their backs?
Or is it that the superiors are hiding the truth from the department managers below...
Taking a step back, if forces like the Demon Cave Clan, which deal directly with the heavens and other worlds, really join the trade agreement, then TheM Company's 'monsters' will definitely monopolize trade. It's about to be forced to stop.
Late~~autumn~~~ ruins people’s wealth! Killing parents! It seems that there is really going to be a war.
Jimoni stared at Li Pan and said,
"Oh, Master is so powerful. He actually knows everything about the outsiders..."
Duan Kecheng said, "Ha... Jie Jie! That's natural! All major events in this world cannot be controlled by my elder brother. All changes are clearly visible! What can you, the people in the Little Devil's Cave, hide from Big Brother's fiery eyes! Jie Jie Jie!"
Li Pan and Jimoni looked at him silently again, then turned around and said,
"I heard that Tianwai Someone has a monopoly on the 'outer trade'. You must be ready for war, right?"
Jimone smiled,
"People die for money, and birds die for food. With such a huge profit, how can you know if you don't fight for it? , Besides, the master also knows it very well, right? We have no way out."
What does this mean?
Li Pan glanced at him, and Duan Kecheng sent a message to him attentively,
"Oh, the Demon Sect is about to go through a thousand-year catastrophe. There are a lot of thieves there, and they are constantly trying to overcome the catastrophe. Now the new generation of disciples have cultivated to the point of practicing Qi. "Become a God," we are about to start a massacre and annihilate our karma.
Now Emei Mountain has led a group of demons to form an alliance, preparing to slaughter the heavens and sweep away all realms. The demon lairs are the first to bear the brunt. They will probably be exterminated when they come to kill them." Old Man Li
Pan Look at the subway expressions.
"Emei???"
Jimoni smiled bitterly,
"Yes, they are the demons in Emei. Your sect refused to save them, so we had no choice but to seek medical treatment and seek help from everywhere."
Duan Kecheng, "Jie Jie! It's just Emei! What a big deal! Our divine sect raises our hands to destroy them! If we don't destroy them now, it's just that the time has not come yet! Jie Jie!" He shouted while transmitting a message, "Brother, please do it
!
" Don’t get entangled with her about this. Now is a catastrophe that happens once in a thousand years to the Demon Sect. It’s the time to compete for energy. The entire Demon Sect swarms up, and everyone is acting crazy. It’s really cruel. We are also here. Those who are inevitably invaded will be even worse than them when beaten, and there is nothing I can do to help."
Then Li Pan also understood and smiled,
"It's just a demon sect, it's not a problem. If Miss Jimoni wants to seek shelter, my god There will always be a place for you among the billions of heavens under your command. But we are here to make a deal this time..."
Duan Kecheng also raised his hand and took out a pair of bows and arrows,
"Look, look, he's not bad! Jie Jie. !"
"Huh?" Jimone looked surprised, "The Bow of Artemis? It's so well preserved, and the seal of the godhead is not damaged at all... Which world is this projection of?" Duan Kecheng smiled arrogantly, "
Jiejie ! Don’t worry about where it was made, just give me a price! How many sheep?"
Jimoni looked at Li Pan, "As far as I know, such ancient gods will be devoured by the masters of your sect and will not be used. It's for trading. Unless it's something on the other side of Tianwaitian. But the things there are still so complete... they should have been stolen from the company." Do you really know the company... Duan Kecheng continued to be shy, "Of
course
! My eldest brother is full of ideas and can do anything! It’s just a company, it’s just a chicken or a dog! Jie Jie!”
Li Pan coughed quickly, “Miss Devil Princess, there are some things that everyone knows. Since you want to join the trade agreement, Sooner or later, we will have to confront the company. Even if we steal other people's things, so what."
Jimoni smiled, "Yes, you can take whatever you want, so what. I will give you a hundred sheep, and everyone will give it to you. Friend."
Li Pan frowned, "Only a hundred..."
Duan Kecheng immediately pulled his face,
"You bastard! How dare you play tricks on me! A mere hundred sheep want to trick my brother's treasure! They are looking for death!"
Jimoni said. Stunned, "One hundred sheep is a lot. Artemis is just a god on earth, and her godhood is only worth fifty sheep. However, it is indeed rare to have such a well-preserved sheep. My little girl has already given a lot to make friends with you two." ."
Li Pan shook his head, "You're not sincere if you haggle like this. I don't care if you lower the price, but you have to know that we are not doing serious business. Do you understand that rare goods can be bought? It's not that everyone knows it
. Regarding the company's conduct, I am taking food from the tiger's jaws, and I am taking huge risks. If this matter is leaked, they will have to send at least seventeen or eight fleets to attack me.
Capital will only dare to take risks if the profit is appropriate. You can't even part with 300% of the profit, you just want to sit back and enjoy it. There is no need for us to cooperate in the future.
Brother, let's go."
Duan Kecheng simply got up.
Upon hearing this, Jimoni hesitated for a while, then nodded.
"Wait a minute, okay, what you said does make sense, 300% profit... Okay, I'll pay for two hundred heads, but this is a big amount, and I have to get the goods from other hells." Duan Kecheng twisted his face
,
"Brother, I don't think this girl is sincerely deceiving her. Maybe she is really short of money. How about..."
Li Pan sighed, "Oh, what are you trying to do to undermine my business deal with her? That's all. Just two hundred, we'll lose." Oh..."
Duan Kecheng said, "Brother, I was wrong. Hey! Didn't you hear me talking to you? Give us some small gifts! Bring us another plate of these apples!" Jimoni said, "...Yes,
you Wait a minute, I'll make arrangements right away."
As soon as the other party left, Duan Kecheng immediately became happy,
"As expected of the eldest brother! I originally wanted to sell all those junk things and exchange them for seventy or eighty of hers! You can Two hundred sheep at once! That's amazing!"
Li Pan was curious, "Aren't you going to break the limit of heaven, so seventy or eighty sheep are enough?"
Duan Kecheng laughed, "Of course! One lamb has to eat five It takes one hundred thousand people to grow, two hundred! Hahaha! I don't know where to find so many people to herd!"
Li Pan was stunned for a moment, "This sheep...cannibalizes people? Wait a minute, aren't you talking about gods? Does the teacher... disdain killing people..."
Duan Kecheng smiled and said,
"Of course, the people in that world are not of much use and can only be used as fodder for shepherding sheep. When the lambs grow up, they can be sacrificed.
No. They eat humans, what else can they eat? If they want to go against heaven and erode the way of heaven, they have to eat humans. Don’t worry,
brother, we don’t need to bother catching people to feed them. We just need to put these lambs on the ground and they will grow on their own. It's just like the sheep looking for grass to eat by themselves.
According to my estimation, as long as it eats a population of 40 to 50 million people, it will be enough to break the heart of heaven, reshape the way of heaven, and welcome the entry of my god's army! Haha!
Two hundred! If we eat 100 million of them, there will be 13.9 billion left on the earth, which is enough for us!"
