Chapter 428 Great Coming

When the forest demons withdrew their troops, You Huan immediately noticed this change.

The white spirit-materialized giant snake gradually dissipated, and the black giant snake with flesh and blood also gradually shrank its body and lowered its height.

On the quiet misty plain, he looked at the corpse on the ground.

The body of the forest demon leader had completely disappeared—another work of Thorlan.

Only the body of Thorlan, the culprit who had taken away his food twice, was left on the ground.

It was already difficult for him to deal with the king cobra by himself, and with the materialized spirit body added to the mix, he certainly had no power to resist and was quickly killed.

To be able to become the Investigator of the Heavens in the Fenyu World, this guy must be very capable.

But now, he died so easily, not much more resilient than the forest demon cub he stepped on to death.

In fact, all life in the world is pursuing the truth, and the path to pursuing the truth is so equal.

Every life has the possibility of disappearing like dust in an instant.

Of course, You Huan didn't feel sentimental for too long.

He was in a very happy mood at the moment.

He poked the tip of his tail at the lion's body, which was twisted and deformed due to the invasion of toxins and the simultaneous crushing of two snakes, one black and one white.

Then, with a few "slaps", it used its wings to smash the corpse into a pancake-like shape.

Well, I feel happier.

Just as he was whipping Sollan's corpse, a figure seemed to be pieced together from nothing and appeared beside him.

Joshua cleaned the blood of the forest demon from his claws, glanced at Sollan's body on the ground, and said in a brisk voice:

"I knew that this crazy carnivore would die one day, but I didn't expect it to come so soon."

When You Huan killed Sollan, he didn't care too much about whether there would be any negative consequences.

There are really few people who can make him unhappy and hold a grudge against him. If such a situation occurs, of course it must be resolved as soon as possible so that he can feel better.

But after killing him, he still asked Joshua one more question: "Will anyone else know that I killed him? Or will it attract the attention of your world?"

Joshua shrugged. "Don't worry. The surviving investigator, that is, I will be responsible for submitting the report on the Gusbot family's illegal invasion of the world. I will not write anything that should not be mentioned."

"Of course, there is no problem even if it is mentioned. The death of a life is like a wave of disturbance on the surface of truth. To the whole world, it does not matter whether it is good or bad, serious or not. Everything is a natural state."

Then he changed the subject: "You didn't completely destroy the clan leader's nest, did you?"

Are you referring to that weird building that can barely be called a castle?

You Huan said, "No."

"That's good. The treasure that is suspected to be from the city in the intelligence should be in the clan leader's lair."

——The forest demon invasion incident has come to an end, and the Gusbot family, who violated the law, submitted the "Crime Elimination Agreement".

The contract stipulated that the Gusbot family had to sacrifice the lives of their strongest men and a large number of their clansmen, as well as all available resources, to eliminate their sins of violating the laws of the gods.

This punishment is quite severe.

But in You Huan's eyes, there are still residents in the Fenyu world who continue to do things that violate the law.

Joshua said that most of the reasons for this situation were for the truth.

Or, to use the common language of other worlds, it is to "become stronger."

In order to gain the truth beyond their current realm and level, many lives will risk breaking the law.

This is a pursuit engraved in the bones of intelligent life. Even sometimes, even if this truth does not bring them practical strength, they will do everything for it.

In fact, this behavior is not uncommon anywhere.

However, as a high-level world, the residents of Fenyu World are particularly powerful, and they are contaminated by the truth that has a great impact on the life of the outside world.

If they were allowed to pursue the truth freely, the entire heavens would fall into chaos.

Therefore, the formulation of laws of the gods and the establishment of investigative officers are both very necessary.

While Joshua was explaining some of the situations in the Fenyu world to You Huan, two "people" also entered the patriarch's lair.

The appearance of forest monsters is quite similar to that of humans, so the design and placement of items in their nests are also similar to those of humans.

However, the architectural style is far beyond the limits of human imagination, and even You Huan finds it difficult to describe.

After entering the lair, the two of them split up to look for the so-called treasures of the city, and at the same time searched for some other items that they liked.

That's right, now it's time for some fun loot-hunting, and the right kind of loot-hunting.

You Huan was not particularly interested in the various forest monster items in the nest. He just collected some samples to study the characteristics of the forest monster as a life form.

At this time, there are only a dozen seconds left in the time limit of Function Card·Summoning Shadow (III).

Before the Monster Shadow could no longer be used, he summoned the Light Fury.

This is the monster he owns that is most closely related to the urban world.

Especially after his trip to the Lost City, Guangsha developed an indescribable "sense of smell" for the city.

Similar to Joshua's ability to feel the breath of the world - this ability is not possessed by everyone in the Fenyu world, it is a rare ability.

Come to think of it, the bug I encountered in the world of the cabin in the woods could also distinguish the aura of the world...

The thought flashed through my mind.

The king cobra that had merged with the Light Evil suddenly raised its front half, then flapped its wings and flew to the top floor of the nest.

He sensed something related to the city...

On the way, Joshua met up with him, and the two of them thought of a way to open the blocked door on the top floor and entered a secret room.

In the secret room there is a high platform made of hay, dead branches and fresh fruits, like some kind of bird's nest.

An object similar to a scale was quietly placed on the stage.

Although it is called a balance, it actually only barely resembles a balance.

There is a transparent container at each end that seems to be able to place or take out items. The top is connected by a clear pipe, and there is a silver-white support or conversion device under the container.

In short, the appearance was very strange, and You Huan had a hard time describing it with anything he had ever seen.

This thing exuded a strong urban atmosphere, which both he and Joshua could feel.

As he approaches, a prompt appears on the panel:

[An external item that can be converted into a function card has been detected. ]

[Item information:

Name: Unknown

Origin: Dream City

Era: Unknown

Function: Input enough cost, drive the rules with magic energy, and transform and output the required things. ]

From the previous prompts, you can fuse titles, and even if it has not been converted into a function card, you can still view some information about the item.

As You Huan's monsters become stronger and move towards the realm of truth, the panel becomes more powerful.

Judging from the information on this item, it is no wonder that the forest monster wants to launch a large-scale world invasion to take lives.

They must be trying to use these lives as input to have this object output something very... "huge".

It is probably related to the strengthening of the ethnic group itself.

You Huan used the excuse of "what I sensed" and selectively told Joshua some of the characteristics of this item.

Joshua said, "Something like an equivalent exchange? Since this family has made it the core of their plan, it should be quite useful, but—"

He and You Huan took a step back at the same time.

Look into the depths of this secret room.

In addition to the platform that holds the treasures produced in this city, there is also a sophisticated magic circle engraved on the wall of the secret room.

A sculpture carved from bones hangs in the center of the magic circle.

This sculpture looks different at different times, from different angles, and even every time you blink, as if it can reflect thousands of images.

But overall, it gave You Huan the feeling of "some creature embraced by vines."

At this moment, the sculpture and the formation on the wall both lit up slightly.

The next moment, there was no overly loud noise, just like a trance, a blink of an eye.

I don't know how much time has passed. When You Huan realized it, a living being had already appeared in this secret room.

He was standing face to face with him and Joshua on a high platform, with his head slightly lowered, as if observing the object from another world on the platform.

The god worshipped by the forest monsters, "the great mother of spiders", "the breeder of thousands of elephants", "the echo of the mist field" - the Spider Mother of All Elephants, has descended here.
