Chronicles of Primordial Wars

Chapter 58: Skeleton in the cave

Views:

I don't know if it was because of the stone worm king bug, when Shao Xuan came to this point, he also encountered the bug that dragged him over before, and the rest of the creatures were not seen.

Probably because the king bug woke up and walked around for a while, so those eyeless spiders and bugs hid in their dens

As for the bug that Shao Xuan had just cut, it was probably under pressure to seek revenge.

If that's the case, do you want to turn back and go to the fork to change lanes

never mind. Shao Xuan shook his head and decided to continue to follow his feelings. This mountain is very strange.

Shao Xuan rolled the antennae cut off from the insect's head onto his arm. Except for the jagged hook at the top, the rest of the antennae was very soft, and Shao Xuan didn't feel any pain when wrapped around his arm.

Shao Xuan doesn't know where he is now in the mountains, because, after staying in the mountains until now, he finds more and more that the sense of direction that used to be strong in the past is not useful at all now. This is a very strange thing. The phenomenon.

Even if he played maze games in his previous life, he could remember where he walked in the maze. When many people felt headaches and couldn't tell the direction in it, he was still able to quickly find the correct direction. Even if Shao Xuan was asked to return from the hunting route, he could go back according to the route accurately. But now, Shao Xuan was confused.

There are many caves in the mountain. In addition to the stone worm king worm, there are various other creatures. The eyeless spider and the worm that Shao Xuan cut off are just two of them.

It stands to reason that there should be traces of various creatures living in the cave, but unfortunately, nothing can be found in the cave. No scratches, no other wreckage, no spider beetles, nothing seems to have existed. Just like every time the hunting team marked the cave in the mountain and then walked, all those traces disappeared.

If the power of the totem can really tell the lost person to choose the right direction and path, how could those ancestors get lost

According to the feeling, Shao Xuan continued to walk forward, and when he encountered a fork, he also felt carefully, relying on the special ability in the body to choose which way to go. Shao Xuan only hoped that, with intuition, don't strike, and don't lie to him, otherwise he will be dead, just like the ancestors who opened up the hunting route that Lang Ga and the others said, they can't go back if they get lost.

Compared with the intuitive sense brought by the fire, Shao Xuan's sense is even better when he uses that special ability.

Shao Xuan felt that he was going down, and he probably left the position on the mountainside long ago and went to the bottom of the mountain. However, that kind of feeling still made Shao Xuan persevere.

On the way back, I also encountered some small bugs the size of fists. In Shao Xuan's field of vision, they were all gray and white, and only a rough outline could be seen.

There were insects approaching Shao Xuan, and Shao Xuan drove them away with the tentacle whip. Those little bugs seemed to be a little afraid of the tentacle whip. When Shao Xuan threw the tentacle whip over, they avoided it as if frightened.

Shao Xuan speculated that these little bugs were probably the usual food for the big bug with long tentacles. Look at their panicked appearance.

In addition to the long tentacle whip, the tooth knife also carried the breath of the tentacle bug.

Fist-sized worms were densely distributed on the surrounding cave walls, and Shao Xuan could even clearly hear the small and dense clicking sounds they made as they walked on the cave walls.

But wherever Shao Xuan passed, those bugs avoided them.

Wouldn't it be very troublesome now if I didn't get rid of that tentacle bug? Even if these bugs are not big, but there are many, it will be difficult to deal with.

Originally, I just wanted to take revenge and cut off the tentacle bug, but I didn't expect such a harvest.

The strange induction is getting stronger and stronger. If it was just a breeze blowing and gently moving the leeward vane, now it is blowing violently, and the direction is quite clear.

This should not be the way out of the mountain, but whether it is the power of the totem or that special ability, there is a meaning for him to go there.

what exactly is it

treasure

Although the direction was clear, Shao Xuan did not speed up his pace, he still maintained the rhythm of the pace just now, and was alert to the surroundings.

The good thing is that apart from those little bugs, no other creatures were seen here.

getting closer...

Shao Xuan shook the knife in his hands, a little nervous.

After walking in the cave for so long, Shao Xuan could feel the slight wind movement, but now, the further he walked, the more he felt that there was no road ahead.

Continuing to walk forward, the little bugs gradually disappeared around the cave wall.

The surroundings are very quiet, and when the movement of those little bugs is completely gone, there is only dead silence left.

In addition to no other sound, not even the movement of air can be felt.

Ahead, there seems to be light...

Shao Xuan took a step. Light

Change the ordinary vision, it is still black, and only with the vision of special ability can you see the light spot in the dark.

Continuing to walk towards the light spot, Shao Xuan suddenly felt an inexplicable blockage in his heart.

I can't tell what it feels like, it's like some kind of... ancient breath, showing desolation, and endless sadness.

The light is getting bigger and bigger, like a light mask, covering that small place.

When Shao Xuan finally approached and saw the scene inside the mask, his eyelids twitched violently.

Inside the mask, there are four skeletons, at least in Shao Xuan's vision.

There was a man kneeling in the middle of the mask, and the other three were all around him.

The four skeletons are all kneeling in the same posture, and they use the highest ritual of kneeling to the totem when offering sacrifices in the tribe—kneeling on both knees, staggering their hands in front of their foreheads, and kowtow in the same direction.

Beside them, spears, stone knives, etc. were all inserted into the ground. In Shao Xuan's field of vision, these tools and weapons were all very dark colors, especially the spear beside the man in the center, which was almost black. Excellent stone. At the same time, it also shows that these people were all powerful warriors before their lives, especially the one in the center, whose status in the tribe is definitely not low.

As for the direction of the four people's kneeling, although the sense of direction is now chaotic, Shao Xuan has a feeling that that direction must be the direction of the tribe.

After Shao Xuan's gaze swept over the four skeletons and the stone tools beside them, he stopped on the skeleton kneeling in the middle.

The skeleton wore a bone ornament on its chest. I don't know what kind of creature's bones it was made of. In Shao Xuan's vision, the bone ornament was brighter than the bones of the four skeletons here.

Since getting such a special ability, Shao Xuan has been groping and knows that the bones of totem warriors of different levels are different in color. The bones of the junior totem warriors are dark white, the intermediate warriors are white, and the more advanced ones, such as the leader of the tribe, Ao, are Bright white, and at this time, the bones of these four skeletons are all bright white. Although the degree of brightness is different, it is indeed the case. Among them, the one in the middle is the brightest. But even so, they couldn't match the brilliance of that bone ornament.

However, this is still not the most important thing.

The most important thing that caught Shao Xuan's attention was a ball on the bone ornament. It was not a bone, but it was like a light bulb, illuminating the surroundings, which was the mask Shao Xuan saw.

Switch the field of vision, withdraw the special ability, and look at it with normal eyes, it is still pitch black, and no light can be seen, but then replace the field of vision that can be seen with the special ability, the sphere is still bright, allowing the surrounding shrouded in its light.

Looking at it again, Shao Xuan also found that the skeleton in the middle remained intact, but the three surrounding skeletons were different. Some of their skeletons touching the ground had partially submerged into the stone surface in the cave, and the closer they got to the edge of the mask, the more they sank. the deeper.

Within the scope of the light cover, you can still see some scattered stone tools. The stones are all very good, but some of them sink into the ground, and only part of them are exposed outside.

Outside the range of light, Shao Xuan did not see any stone tools, skeletons, etc.

The mountain will "eat" people. It not only eats people, but also "eats" other things, such as the worm that Shao Xuan has chopped down. If there are no other creatures to eat, the remains of the worm may also become like this, and gradually be eaten by this worm. Mountain engulfs.

The mountain has "eaten" a lot. There are dead people, dead insects, and things that have been placed there. Except for those holes, nothing else has been left.

But now, even though it has been hundreds of years, the people and stone tools in the mask have been preserved to this day because of the light ball.
