[Paper Crane: A hand-made paper product with some of the atmosphere of the ancestors on it. 】
That’s it?
Mu You looked confused.
He thought the savages gave him some special props, but it turned out to be a very ordinary handmade origami with no attributes at all.
"Looking back..."
Wouldn't it be a big loss to exchange a relic for a piece of paper? Mu You went back without hesitation and chose the third option.
[You take out some wild fruits you picked up on the roadside and make a fruit basket for the other party. 】
["Well...you don't have to...starve anymore..." The savage happily took the basket of wild fruits from you, threw it directly into his mouth, and started chewing. 】
[Swallowing the food in one breath, the savage burped with satisfaction. After groping in his pocket for a long time, he took out a 'paper crane' again and stuffed it into your hand: "This is... a friend... a souvenir..." 】
[You received a paper crane (1) as a gift from our ancestors. 】
emmm…
Mu You was speechless for a moment and silently retraced his steps.
[You took advantage of the savage's unpreparedness and suddenly attacked him! 】
[However, the savages are thick-skinned and thick-skinned. Your attack failed to cause any damage, but instead angered the savages. 】
[The smile on the savage's face instantly turned to anger. 】
["You... are not friends... enemies!" the savage roared, swinging his spear and slashing at you. 】
[You were stabbed to death by a savage...]
"really……"
Mu You was not surprised at all. In this case, he just wanted to test whether there were any additional incidents. However, he thought too much and was killed without incident, so he had to backtrack again.
Now that all four options have been tried, they are all unreliable. The only thing that may change is the second item.
Is it because the things given are not high-end enough?
Mu You thought and chose 'give him a prop' again, but this time, he specially selected a valuable item.
【You give 'Thousands of People and Thousands of Faces' to the savages. 】
[The savage was overjoyed...]
[You have received a gift from the ancestors - Paper Crane (8)]
Or paper crane?
Mu You couldn't help but frown, could it be that this guy's pockets were full of paper cranes and there were no treasures at all...
[As time goes by, you give the freshly baked blood-sucking poison velvet to the savages...]
[You have received a gift from the ancestors—paper crane (5)]
…
【Time flows...】
[You have received a gift from the ancestors—paper crane (3)]
【Time flows...】
[You have received a gift from the ancestors—paper crane (7)]
…
Continuously going back and trying the items on his body one by one, Mu You gradually discovered the pattern.
This savage indeed only has 'paper cranes', but the paper cranes have different styles, with a total of nine types from 1 to 9.
Depending on the value of the things given to the savages each time, different paper cranes will be obtained. The higher the value of the item, the larger the number on the paper crane will be.
Muyou took out this paper crane and studied it, but still found that it had no practical effect. It seemed that it was just a simple 'souvenir'.
"Or maybe all the paper cranes need to be collected to trigger some event?" Mu You subconsciously came up with this idea.
Of course, this is the real world, not a designed game world like the Star Spirit World. Many things have rules to follow.
Things in the real world are often unreasonable. It is possible that even if he collects all the paper cranes, it will be in vain.
However, with a living 9-star creature standing in front of him, it was a pity to miss it like this, so Mu You decided to try more.
[Looking at the No. 1 paper crane in your hand, you did not go back in time this time, but took out the 'warm scarf' again and gave it to the savage. 】
The higher the number, the more valuable the paper cranes needed. Muyou was going to collect the paper cranes one by one, starting from 1, to see if any surprise events would be triggered along the way.
result……
[The savage who had just finished eating the wild fruit looked at the scarf you handed over, his face became serious, and he waved his hand to you resolutely: "The patriarch taught... not to be greedy... towards friends..."]
[After saying that, the savage did not accept your gift, turned around and jumped into the jungle and disappeared quickly into the depths of the jungle. 】
"You actually left directly?" Mu You looked strange.
He also wanted to play a collectible card game, but he only accepted one gift and ran away immediately after the transaction.
Muyou then controlled the character to jump around repeatedly for a while, trying to get the savage out again, but he never showed up again.
Mu You had to give up.
However, he was not in a hurry to continue the game. Instead, he took out the oil lamp, summoned the djinn, and asked for information about the savage and the paper crane.
"Savage?"
The genie was a little confused when he heard the name, but then he noticed the paper crane held in Mu You's hand, felt the aura on it, and suddenly realized: "Oh, you mean 'ancestors'?"
Mu You nodded. After all, Savage was just a name given to the other party by the Fool's ancestors. The previous game text also specifically mentioned the 'gift from the ancestors'. It seemed that 'the ancestors' was the other party's real name.
"What are the ancestors?" Mu You was curious.
"Strictly speaking, the ancestors were the first 'civilization' in the Gaotian world. Before the rise of the gods, the Gaotian world was always ruled by the ancestors." The Deng Shen said.
"Oh?" Mu You was surprised. So the Gods were once under the rule of these savages?
"A long time ago, when divinity and authority did not appear, the Gods were actually a very weak race. In terms of physical ability alone, they were crushed by most high-level beasts. They didn't even have names. They could only live in the real world. Living in a corner, survival is a problem.”
"Until a million years ago, an extraterrestrial meteorite hit the center of the world, bringing divinity and divine authority to the world. It also caused the creatures in the entire world to begin a crazy evolution. All creatures were affected by divinity and gradually transformed into gods. Sexual creatures have evolved various unique magical arts, and their combat effectiveness has been greatly increased."
"The meteorite shattered into countless fragments and flew around the world. These fragments are actually pieces of authority stones. In this catastrophe, we discovered that our weak race is lucky to have the ability to fuse authority stones. , so he seized this opportunity, successfully stood out from many creatures, and named himself 'God Clan'."
"But the original overlord ancestors were unlucky enough not to catch up with this wave of opportunities. Their affinity for the energy of divinity can be said to be the worst among all real creatures, and they are almost completely unable to use the power of divinity. . Of course, because of this, they have extremely high resistance to divine spells, and ordinary divine spells can only have less than one-tenth of the effect against them."
"Millions of years ago, after the evolution of most races was basically stable, the rising protoss relied on the conveniences brought by divine power to start a protracted status battle with the weakened ancestors... The final result was naturally that the protoss After victory, the ancestors were completely defeated and signed a peace agreement with us. From then on, they will live in seclusion in the corner of the world and will not take the initiative to set foot on the territory of the Gods. However, at the same time, the Gods can no longer kill them in any form. The two sides draw a boundary between each other. No contact." said the Djinn.
Mu You was a little surprised after hearing this. He really didn't expect that the Gods had such a history of rise.
But to put it this way, are the existing energy and magical systems in Gaotian World actually brought by foreign 'meteors'?
"Then what's the use of this kind of paper crane?" Mu You raised the paper crane in his hand.
"This is really unclear."
The Djinn God said that he had no idea about this aspect, because since the war between the two races, they had very little contact with their ancestors.
"It can't really be a souvenir..." Mu You looked helplessly at the paper crane in his hand.
"Are you okay? I'll go back if you're okay..."
After Mu You finished asking, the djinn yawned and prepared to go back to sleep in the lamp.
"Oh wait..."
At this time, Mu You remembered the previous encounter on the top of the mountain. Taking advantage of the presence of the djinn, he hurriedly consulted the big bird from before.
"The big bird living on the lonely peak is chasing you inexplicably?" The genie was confused.
"Are you talking about Kunpeng?" The Deng God thought of something and looked at Mu You with a strange expression.
"What is Kunpeng?" Mu You still doesn't know the name of that big bird.
"Kunpeng is a pet kept by the Crow people, or a means of transportation..." said the Deng Shen.
"Transportation... tool?" Mu You was surprised when he heard this: "Creatures of this level can actually be tamed? What are the Crow people?"
"There is nothing that cannot be tamed. Moreover, Kunpeng is a very gentle creature and rarely shows aggression. It is closely related to the Crow people and is naturally friendly to the Crow people. It is not difficult to tame them. As for the Crow people, they are a race that makes its fortune as a trader. , the arakkoa people have two forms, the crow and the arakkoa, and usually earn the price difference by trading goods among various races in the world." the genie explained.
"I see……"
After hearing this, Mu You felt a little clearer. It is true that not all powerful creatures are highly aggressive. For example, elephants have the highest combat power in the animal world, but they are much gentler than those carnivorous beasts such as ligers and tigers, and it is not difficult to tame them...
But wait! So, why did this gentle bird suddenly want to hunt him down?
Or……
Combining the characteristics of the Crow people described by the Djinn God just now, Mu You has already thought of a possibility.
"Kunpeng, then it probably isn't chasing you, but wants to take you somewhere... I guess there should be a Crow Tribe near where you are now." The Deng Shen said.
"..." Mu You was speechless.
The djinn reminded him and he quickly figured everything out.
The Crow tribe's tribe was probably on that dangerous peak, and the reason why Kunpeng was specifically looking for him and not anyone else was because he had the most divinity at that time!
At that time, he had just finished hunting a nest of scorpions, and his stock of divinity reached 2000+. From this point of view, it is very likely that the Yao tribe had set instructions for Kunpeng. As long as he detected the presence of people with more than 2000 divinity around him, he would If it is determined that someone wants to do business with the Crow People, Kunpeng will go out and take the initiative to take the target to the Crow People tribe.
After thinking about this, Mu You suddenly felt a little embarrassed. This whole thing had been going on for a long time. They didn't come to kill him, but to pick him up. In the end, he spent a long time playing hide and seek with Da Niao, and finally made Da Niao angry. gone……
Seeing that Mu You understood what he meant, the Djinn didn't say any more and got back into the oil lamp.
Mu You took a breath, returned to the game, and decisively controlled the character to return to the short mountain.
[You return to the top of the short mountain, put all the divine crystals on hand into your bag, and hold them high...]
【Waiting……】
At this time, Mu You was also a little uneasy. The big bird from before was obviously a little angry before leaving, and he didn't know if he would still come to pick him up.
[You stood at the top of the mountain for a moment, and suddenly heard a familiar sound of hoofbeats high in the sky...]
[After a few seconds, the silhouette of a giant bird appears above you...]
[After hovering above your head for several weeks, the giant bird lands towards you, you choose...]
"Stand still!"
Mu You breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the giant bird had a good temper and didn't argue with him. As soon as he found out that he met the conditions, he came to pick him up again.
Now that he knew the purpose of the giant bird, Mu You would certainly not move again.
[Two bird claws were the first to break through the clouds and mist, and they stepped on the ground next to your body without hurting you at all...]
[A few seconds later, a bird head pops out of the cloud and rests on top of your head. After confirming your position, the bird's beak opens and swallows you into its mouth...]
[The bone dragon not far away saw you being swallowed, and it suddenly became extremely anxious. It opened its teeth and claws at the giant bird, and was about to attack the giant bird. 】
[You hurriedly poked your head out of the air hole at the front of the bird's beak, and gestured to the bone dragon to calm down, telling him to come as soon as you go, and let it wait nearby with peace of mind. 】
[The Bone Dragon confirmed that you were intact and then calmed down, but it still stared at the giant bird and let out a threatening growl...]
[The next moment, the giant bird takes off, carrying you towards the dangerous peaks in the distance...]
【In flight...】
…
The in-flight prompt lasted for about two minutes, and a new prompt popped up.
[With the sound of hoofbeats, you feel the giant bird landing in an open space. 】
[The next moment, the bird's beak opens, and you step out of the bird's beak. Looking left and right, you are already in the middle of a mountain top. There is a bottomless cliff ten meters away in front of you. Judging from the topography, this should be the same dangerous peak you see through the fog-breaking mirror. 】
[At this time, the giant bird is crawling in a huge bird's nest at the back. The bird's nest is made of dead branches and grass leaves. Directly in front of the bird's nest, there is a wooden board hanging with some information written on it in divine characters. 】
[Kunpeng rental rules: Each person must take the initiative to feed 30 points of divinity for each ride. The first ride is free for each person, and a maximum of 500 people can be carried each time. Kunpeng can only transport targets to nearby mountains, or pick people up from nearby mountains to the Crow Tribe. 】
"It's really a 'taxi'..." Mu You was stunned, and then he didn't hesitate. He controlled the character to take out 60 points of divinity and fed it to Kunpeng.
The first ride is free, but if you let someone else's trip go in vain because of your poor behavior, you still have to pay what you should pay at this time. After all, you will probably have to deal with this big bird frequently in the future.
[You take out 60 divinities and place them next to Kunpeng’s nest. 】
[The big bird, which was resting with its head on the edge of the nest, glanced at you in surprise, opened its mouth to inhale the divine crystal storm, and looked at you with a much friendlier look. 】
