Chapter 376 Crystal Man

Seeing the giant hand made of mud coming again.

You Huan flew around and dodged the attack. At the same time, he quickly cut off a small piece of soil and put it into the container bottle.

After being separated from the main body, the soil immediately began to multiply itself, and in the blink of an eye, it filled the entire bottle!

This self-reproducing soil is about to overflow.

A small black shadow flew out from Guangsha's body and instantly sank into the mud.

As if sensing the emergence of something worth cultivating, the soil stopped growing.

Was that the seed of the technique just now?

You Huan quickly left the garden with the bottle, leaving the rustling soil behind him, and then carefully looked at the situation inside the bottle.

These soils undulate slightly like amorphous living things, and occasionally a faint colorful glow flows across the surface.

When the soil is turned, the seeds of martial arts buried in the soil will occasionally appear.

Soil, water...

Among the three items in the task item list, namely, Xirang, Crystal Pool Water and Energy Furnace, the first two should be used as seeds for the exercises.

Xiran can keep the flowers in the garden vibrant even though the ruins have been abandoned for thousands of years. It obviously has special effects on plants.

You Huan was now able to examine the Xirang in detail, and he discovered that it was actually not soil at all... but a kind of micro-machine.

By absorbing and transforming particles in the air, this group of machines, which are at least at the nanoscale, can self-replicate.

Maintaining the garden and promoting the growth of plants are their programmed programs.

However, he could only have a rough understanding of this "Xiran".

They seemed to be using some technology that was different from the original world, which he couldn't figure out by himself.

In short, one of the items on the list was obtained.

He also had a clue about the crystal pool water.

Attention shifted to the main body.

Because the little black water snake observed the traces left by its scattered companions, he followed the traces to explore.

But when he arrived at the final point of the trace, a huge cabin appeared in front of him.

Inside the cabin were countless things shining with crystal light.

Humans, as well as some other vaguely unrecognizable creatures, filled the cabin in the form of crystal sculptures.

Just by looking through the glass, one can clearly see the despair revealed in the facial expressions of these human sculptures.

He even recognized some of them as treasure hunters who had come to explore the Kana ruins and then disappeared.

It turned out that they were transformed into crystal sculptures by something and sealed here.

The crystals were found, and they matched the photos given in the mission description, but the question was - where was the "pool water"?

At this moment, a crystal mark on the ground, like the footsteps of an invisible ghost, quickly approached his feet from behind.

But before the crystal touches the ankle of the person in front of him.

He has turned around.

It was as if his eyes instantly penetrated the surface of the moldy air and saw something.

Lightly step your right foot on the ground.

When the soles of the shoes touched the ground, countless black and sticky liquids rose up instantly.

The traces of crystals on the ground were instantly swallowed, eroded, and destroyed by the black water!

Then countless black waters condensed into a figure, and a ferocious figure with a horn crown on its head could be vaguely seen in it.

A sickle-like wing cut through the air amidst the splash of black water.

Although it seemed like there was nothing, a faint wailing sound was heard in the air.

Suddenly, cracks appeared in the air, like shattering crystals!

Then a creature appeared from nothingness and fell to the ground.

This creature has a body shape slightly similar to that of a human, and its entire body appears to be made of crystal, with sharp edges and corners.

The head is a hollow crystal ball, with a light blue liquid with fine crystal light sloshing inside.

At this time, its head had been broken by the sickle wings of the black water life, and the liquid slowly flowed out.

The black water condensed into the shape of a water pump and a bowl, collecting all the flowing crystal liquid.

At present, it seems that only this liquid meets the definition of "crystallization pool water".

He walked forward and looked at the dead crystal creature on the ground.

Let's call this creature "Crystal Man" for now.

Its appearance is basically a light blue crystal shaped like a human.

The creatures in the cabin that were transformed into crystal sculptures were probably created by it.

The liquid in its head has certain similarities with black water, and can also transform external organic matter into its own appearance.

The question was where did this creature come from?

He had never heard of such a creature in this world.

He turned and looked toward the cabin ahead.

The structure of this place is very similar to a spaceship, giving him a sense of familiarity...

"Bang!"

With a loud bang as walls and glass were violently shattered, the entire cabin door and a large section of the wall were instantly shattered.

The raised dust swept through, knocking down the crystal sculptures in several cabins.

It also alarmed the existence deep in the cabin.

"*&&%…"

An unfamiliar language was heard, and several crystal clear figures rushed out.

Brilliant light shone on these crystal people, and drops of invisible liquid condensed outside.

As these liquids passed through the air like silk ribbons, they left behind a trail of floating crystals.

However, just as they were about to attack the culprit who destroyed the cabin wall.

A huge black shadow condensed behind them.

"Bang! Bang!"

The king cobra flicked its tail and knocked all the crystal people flying onto the wall.

Under the tremendous force, the crystals all over their bodies began to shatter, and strands of light blue liquid overflowed from their heads.

You Huan stepped forward and collected all the liquids.

At this time, another subtle noise came from behind my head.

"Bang!" The last crystal man who intended to launch a sneak attack was entangled and crushed by a snake's tail before he could even reach him.

Just as You Huan was concentrating on collecting the liquids, he heard a muffled voice coming from behind him.

He returned to the pile of fallen crystal sculptures and found that two of them still showed signs of life.

One of them was a familiar face to him...

With a "whoosh" sound, a black and gold flame erupted, shattering all the crystal layers on the surface of the body.

Rossi, a teammate from the southern region of the Huiyue Empire, stood up.

He coughed awkwardly and said:

"The crystallization ability of this strange life form is too hidden. I am not good at detecting it, and I got caught by accident. Of course, this crystal can't trap me."

You Huan did not comment on this.

This kind of crystal person is indeed very concealed.

They can become invisible, and their attacks are more like a phenomenon, a phenomenon that crystallizes things.

He always had the black water attached to his body, his spiritual power kept him on the lookout at all times, and the monster's shadow provided him with a multi-dimensional vision, so he was not successfully ambushed.

He pointed to a sculpture next to him whose expression was frozen in a ferocious moment and said, "This person seems to be still alive."

Rossi was stunned for a moment, then said: "My flame should be able to reverse this crystallization phenomenon. Let me try."

Just as he was roasting the crystal sculpture with fire, You Huan walked to the depths of the cabin.

A large pond that had been dry for a long time came into view.

This should be the real "crystallization pool", but unfortunately it has dried up and not a trace of water is left.

I don't know if the liquid he collected from the crystal people's heads can replace the water in the crystal pool.

"Look at this!"

At this moment, he heard Rossi's cry.

Turning around, I saw that the crystals on the sculpture that still showed signs of life were slowly disappearing under the burning of the black gold flame.

But what also disappeared was the sculpture - or rather, part of the flesh and internal organs of the strange woman.

These body parts had completely crystallized and were difficult to reverse. Under the burning flames, they melted into a light blue liquid that flowed on the ground.

This liquid looks very similar to the one in the crystal man's head.

Rossi said, "From my experience of being accidentally attacked just now, I can see that the crystal people crystallize organisms and transform them into this liquid, which serves as their food or energy source."

You Huan asked: "Where did this 'crystal man' come from? Why did he appear here?"

Rossi stroked the stubble on his chin and said, "I'm confused too, but my beautiful angel Eve might know something about this issue."

"She said that this relic is related to the origin of her family and even to part of the 'truth' of the world."

As they were talking, You Huan also discovered something new.

That is the written record burned into the bottom of the drained pool.
