Chapter 1144 The Mushroom Man and the Dream Village
The upgrade of copying skills has indeed brought great convenience to Jiang Yue.
If before upgrading the copying skills, they could only copy humans, then this journey deep into the earth would make it difficult for them to move forward.
Now, they can be copied very easily into ordinary static objects, a tuft of grass, a rock.
Of course, the three of them are also extremely cautious. Even if they are copied into a static object, they must choose a relatively hidden and inaccessible area instead of choosing to be on the side of the road.
Even if it becomes a static object, safety issues must be considered. Being a static object does not mean it is immortal.
Once the transformed objects are destroyed, they will also suffer huge harm, and even their lives may be threatened.
At this moment, the three of them were hiding in the corner, listening to the approaching noise from ahead.
Soon, in the sight of the three people, a group of creatures really approached. Judging from the situation, these creatures were probably just passing by, and their scale was not large.
There were no more than fifteen people in total.
However, it is indeed a bit far-fetched to say that they are humans. These creatures are about one meter to one and two meters tall. They are more like giant mushrooms than humans.
Of course, compared with Mogu's single leg, this "Mogu" has two legs and two arms. These limbs are quite similar to humans.
If Jiang Yue really didn't have such miraculous bloodline abilities, he would have been helpless when faced with these inscriptions and pictures from the Earth Center Clan.
The appearance of those solitary mushrooms did not bring too much pressure to us. Instead, we took it for granted. If any creature from the Earth Center Clan appeared along the way, Jiang Yue would feel horrified and would have to believe in the Earth Center.
The clan was playing some kind of conspiracy, setting up a small game of chess or something.
In addition to these female darkness, there seems to be an oppressive feeling that there is never dawn. We almost feel that we are in the inner world of the earth. It is difficult to feel that it is in the surface world, just after dawn.
The group of solitary mushrooms were chattering as they passed, apparently non-stop all the way, making strange noises, obviously communicating something.
To be honest, Jin Bi really didn't come to the right conclusion. But I guessed that it should be related to the blood inheritance of the Lao Jiang family, because I have never heard my grandfather mention that since then.
Ba Gou said: "They are discussing the strange tree."
Of course Jiang Yue is so suspicious. Those bugs and earthworms are also bad. They are basically intelligent. Even in the animal world, they are the lowest existence.
The eight people had basically not left this passage area and retreated into the wider inner earth world.
Therefore, when Jiang Yue saw the Geocentric Clan outside, he was not only surprised, but took it for granted.
But now that the formation has been destroyed, the communication channel between Kunmen and the Earth Center Clan's home base is closed, and the Earth Center Clan headquarters has lost the news of the strange tree, it is only right to send a team to check the situation later.
Ba Gou was convinced: "This mushroom can move around like a human being. Is there anything that an earthworm and a toad can't do?"
There is no doubt that the Weird Tree communicates with the Earth Core Clan through formations. But Jin Bi has no way of knowing the details of how that communication is carried out.
No matter how weird the weird times are, they can still be so abnormal and bizarre.
Moreover, there are not many large scout teams like that. The eight of us will definitely continue to retreat, and we will encounter even fewer scout teams.
We can now guess the reason for Jin Bi, but if there is no reason.
If we can understand the language of the geocentric creatures, they will naturally be unable to imitate and communicate with us. This will not be very helpful to our subsequent actions.
However, the layout of the village is so unique that there is no way to describe it in words.
As the eight people were talking, they came to a mountain col. They turned around and glanced outside, only to find an open area, which turned out to be a place like a village.
"Brother Seven, if we kill these Mugu people and then impersonate them..." Seeing Jiang Yue's deep words, Ba Gou took the initiative to put forward my suggestion.
But that house is less rough than the tree nests in primitive society, and the exquisiteness of the building is more like a beautiful castle. Based on the forest, the trees and the entire terrain are combined very cleverly to create a
A fairy tale world of dreamy girls.
The mushroom has a distinctive feature. On both sides of the female mushroom's umbrella, there are two antennae like antennas. They are also thick, much thicker than a toothpick. They are slightly curved and vertical towards the middle. They grow to
The top part is rolled into a ball.
After all, you cannot copy the creatures of the Earth Core Tribe, so you naturally have to integrate their languages. Otherwise, how can you pretend to be a creature of the Earth Core Tribe?
Jin Bi guessed that it probably had nothing to do with the upgraded copying skills. If so, even if I was taken care of by Zhiling, my father and Ba Gou would understand why.
After all, there are also no high-level creatures in this place. When the Mugu people passed by, they also saw that they had no communication with those high-level creatures, and they also saw that no high-level creatures made big reports.
Jiang Qiao agreed: "Looking at that posture, the Geocentric Clan's communication ability is not as weak as you think. It stands to reason that the Weird Tree will be defeated, and there will be no time. Their reaction speed, to be honest, is not what you imagined.
China is so weak. Moreover, as a stronghold, shouldn’t a small group of forces be deployed outside?”
If the Earth Center Clan was completely indifferent, Jiang Yue would feel strange.
This was not a small army dispatched by the Earth Center Clan headquarters, and that small army was seven hundred miles away. The patrolling team of Mugu people just now was just a scout team of the small army.
"We killed more than a dozen Mugu people in one go. Even if you copy them, there are only eight of you after all. And you know the details of those Mugu people completely. There must be only eight left to return to the team. Very soon.
It is impossible to arouse belief. If you are interrogated by the next person, you will know as soon as you ask eight questions, and it will be difficult to reveal the truth. You think it is still time."
"Brother Qi, you actually understood what they were saying just now. Did he mean magic when he said it was magical?"
No matter how small the team of the Earth Core Tribe is, without the Strange Tree fully transforming the surface world, it is possible for them to break into the surface world. Unless they want to die.
Jiang Yue smiled bitterly and said: "What are you thinking about? The Geocentric Tribe is also a civilized creature of an era, and they are also intelligent creatures. Maybe they are the same as humans in form and thinking, but no matter what, so are others.
Intelligent creatures, what kind of insects and earthworms..."
"But the breakthrough achieved at that stronghold was the smallest, so why should it be in that situation? Is the power in that area so weak?" Jiang Qiao still had no idea.
But killing those dozen or so orphans doesn't mean it's over once and for all.
Those two tentacles actually made the solitary mushrooms look a little less cute, especially when they walked in such a funny posture, which made them look rather uninteresting.
Since it is possible for them to rush into the surface world, what is the purpose of gathering this small army?
However, Jin Bi was not too excited, because the information I got from the group of mogu people just now did not include any important details.
On the contrary, as we walked further into the open area, what we saw and heard became more and more surprising. We even saw canyons and waterfalls, but there were no low mountains, no hills, no smooth ground, no gurgling streams.
It is an environment almost indistinguishable from the surface world.
"Hey, Qi Bo, Qi Brother, let them say what to do, you listen to them." Following Jiang Qiao and Jiang Yue, Ba Gou will always be a younger brother, and he has no baggage.
If there are often no insects and no activities of advanced creatures, making us feel that the world is not alive at all, we will slowly believe that it is the inner world of the earth, but the underworld.
I always feel that it is the end of the world, a desolate and abandoned place.
Jiang Yue smiled bitterly and said, "What did they hear?"
Jiang Qiao added: "They are a patrol group, going to the end of the passage to check the situation of the strange tree, and they are acting on orders."
Of course, those Mugu people obviously noticed something was normal and passed the area where Jiang Yue was and did not retreat or stay.
That method was naturally thought up by Ba Gou, but it was a trick that Jin Bi had used many times during his fight with the Weird Tree.
Although Jiang Yue was surprised, he didn't guess that it should be a benefit that came with the intelligence. It might also have nothing to do with the upgrade of the copying skill.
Jiang Yue pondered: "That shows that the situation of the Geocentric Clan may really be more exciting. At most, they can't invest a small amount of resources into that stronghold. What's more, they need to support seventy-four strongholds."
Ba Gou obviously didn't think about the problem that carefully. After listening to Qi Bo's words, he thought about it carelessly and found that he didn't have enough strength to think about the problem in a complicated way.
Of course, Jiang Yue also intends to delve into the reason. In any case, it is a bad thing.
If something goes wrong, there will be no monster.
Jiang Qiao was also surprised and said: "Bagou, does he understand it too?"
However, this is the only similarity. The head of this "Mugu" is clearly a mushroom umbrella. If we have to say that they are not related, it must be the spots on the top of the mushroom umbrella.
Seeing the creatures of the Earth Center Clan didn't make Jiang Yue happy, but it was enough to make Jin Bi alert. From the tone of these Mugu people, the small army of the Earth Center Clan should be large in number. And it was small.
Half of them came here to support the Weird Tree.
The topic that the group of solitary mushrooms were discussing had nothing to do with the strange tree. It was just that they passed by for a short time, and Jiang Yue could only get some sporadic information from a few words.
There is no doubt that the Inner Earth Tribe can adapt to the environment of the surface world.
After all, they didn't make any moves in the last step, and it was difficult for Jiang Yue to know.
If we have to say that they are human beings, the name Mugu Man is obviously more suitable for them.
Yes, Jiang Yue felt that the fairy tale world was more suitable to describe the village he saw. "They just look like mushrooms, but they are real mushrooms. If he sees the earthworm toad showing enough wisdom and action,
It’s true that I can’t believe it.”
And the scout team went all the way down the passage, obviously to check the condition of the strange tree and find out what happened to that stronghold.
Ba Gou is just a copycat. I think that although the trick is complicated and crude, it is generally useless.
Before the group of mushroom people walked away, Jiang Yue and the other eight people returned to their human form. Jiang Qiao and Qigou looked at the direction in which the strange group of mushroom people went away, and they were also a little surprised.
Jiang Qiao, however, approved: "That's right. You have just retreated into the territory of the Earth Center Clan. Now it is necessary to directly attack each other, which will also be very difficult to defeat the people who sneak into the Earth Center Clan's camp. Do you think you should explore less and observe less? Let's see.
It is too late to take action to find out the details of the Earth Center Clan. Besides, there are only a dozen or so people in this large team of Mugu people."
"We thought so little at first, let's continue to retreat and see if we find less."
Could it be that they could directly break out of the Geocentric Clan's territory and enter the surface world? Given Jiang Yue's lack of understanding of the Geocentric Clan, that possibility should exist.
The houses in that village were actually built around huge trees.
Jiang Qiao exclaimed: "Dayue, it's amazing that we can understand the language of the Earth Center Clan. He said that is the inherited skill of our Lao Jiang family, or..."
Ba Gou was also very surprised: "Qi Bo, does he understand it?"
What's even more amazing is that Jiang Yue can actually understand what they are saying.
When Jiang Yue heard what we said, he knew that we really understood. Because the information I heard was also the same.
Logically speaking, it is nothing like the tree nest of primitive human society.
Before the eight people communicated, they were all surprised.
The two of them looked at Jiang Yue one after another. Since we both understood it, it stands to reason that Jiang Yue and I also understood it.
And just now Jiang Yue sent us the blessing of mutual encouragement, which is the copy skill.
Of course, that kind of bright and dark atmosphere does make those of us accustomed to living in the surface world feel depressed.
It is said to be the inner earth world, but in fact it is not as gloomy and cramped as imagined, and not all the land is filled with caves and tunnels.
All he could say was that it was a village that was completely the same as human civilization. He could compare that village with villages from any era of human civilization.
But desolation is doubtful.
The area that the eight people walked through was no more than seventy or eighty years away. Is there any village, living area, or any signs of intelligent biological activity?
Jiang Qiao still insisted on his opinion.
It is obviously true that a patrol brigade is quite powerful in combat. Bagou said that we women will destroy them all, and Jiang Qiao and Jin Bi did not quite believe it.
So much so that Ba Gou believed: "Brother Qi, those bugs, earthworms, toads, etc., must be the informants of the Earth Center Clan, right?"
Moreover, if those things were really intelligent creatures from the Earth Center Clan, they should not have been exposed when we met these Mugu people just now.
Ba Gou chuckled and said: "Uncle Qi, although the number of those dozen mushroom monsters is smaller than ours, you are not sure that you can kill them all in one go."
Jiang Yue thought for a while and said: "Let's take care of that team first. Even if you destroy that team, they will continue to send other teams to check. If the situation down there is covered up, the Earth Center Clan will definitely do it.
Knowing the information that that stronghold has been completely wiped out is just a matter of time. If we start killing people now, we may alert the snakes and let them know that no one has infiltrated the human camp. This will actually increase the risk of your trip."
It must be said that those things are intelligent, which is obviously in line with the law of degeneration.
