The moment his golden eyes lit up, Ma Wei clearly felt the tentacles wrapped around his neck tremble slightly and quickly retracted, as if he had encountered some terrible natural enemy and entered a state of alert.
Muir is ready for battle, Mavi has blocked all escape routes, and it can only fight to the death.
But what surprised him was that Yunia did not launch an attack, but stood quietly on the spot without making any move for a long time.
"If you want, I can show you more." Ma Wei said softly as the deterrent intention was achieved.
After a while, the tentacles climbed onto Ma Wei's shoulders again. This time, the tentacles were a little cautious.
【I came to London because I was called...】
"Summoning?" Ma Wei asked curiously: "What summons? Is there a ritual that can summon you Yogkhlis?"
[It is not a ritual to summon Yugokris, but a ritual to summon extraordinary creatures is running.... We call it 'meat bait'....]
"Can you be more specific?"
[....'Meat Bait' is a special kind of ancient magic. You can understand it as part of the gods. As long as we swallow the 'Meat Bait', we will become stronger. Once upon a time, it was used by humans.' Meat bait creates traps to hunt extraordinary creatures on a large scale....]
Part of the gods?
Ancient gods or religious gods?
In confusion, Ma Wei asked: "Does meat bait refer to part of the god's body?"
[Yes, a body contaminated with the aura of a god, full of supreme power, and devouring enough meat bait, can hope to be promoted to an ancient god...]
Baji once said that the biggest difference between the ancient gods and the gods of faith is the way of promotion. The ancient gods rely on devouring their own kind to gain strength. In order to make themselves stronger, the supreme god will create extraordinary races and then devour the best of them. By.
Belief in God relies on the power of belief of believers. As long as there are more believers, the power of belief in God will be stronger.
Faith God and Ancient God are two completely different promotion paths, and they are incompatible with each other.
Ma Wei is not sure how Yugoklis was born. Like other extraordinary creatures, it must have been created by an ancient god. The extraordinary creatures created will encounter bottlenecks on the way to becoming stronger and want to break through. It can only swallow meat bait contaminated with the aura of the god, which is part of the god.
Thinking of this, Ma Wei felt a little strange, because according to the law of conservation of energy, when a god separates a part of herself, she will lose the corresponding power, and the existence of absorbing this part cannot gain more power than the lost part.
There may be some losses in the middle.
According to this idea, the group of ancient gods who have been devoured and promoted should be getting weaker and weaker!
On the contrary, if you believe in God, you don’t need to worry about similar problems at all.
This was a very strange phenomenon, but Ma Wei didn't think much about it, and instead asked about the 'meat bait': "When did you start feeling the smell of meat bait?"
【last month...】
"Why are you the only one who came to London? Where are the rest of your companions?"
[They are in the land of mist. The land of mist is isolated from the world and cannot sense the breath of meat bait. I left the land of mist because a big event happened a year ago. Many seducers died, plus countless new souls. Going to the land of death, the land of mist was affected one after another, and there were cracks in the channel with your world. I escaped from there...]
One year ago...a large number of seducers died...countless new souls went to the land of death...
Ma Wei's heart trembled and he thought: Could it be me?
A year ago, on the night when Katerina led the cavalry to a surprise attack on the headquarters of the Second Army of the Kingdom of Windsor, the priest who believed in the sin goddess Tilde launched the Death Realm and drove the seducers to harvest souls. In order to organize them, Ma Wei released the witches. Spirit puppet.
No one thought that the witch spirit puppet happened to be the enemy of the seducer, devouring countless souls and causing heavy casualties to the seducer...
As for the countless new souls that followed, it was probably because of the war.
In order to drive away the invading Windsor Kingdom, the Romanov Kingdom paid a heavy price. Unknown how many people died, and these souls also went to the Kingdom of Death.
From this point of view, the turmoil in the misty land is really closely related to himself.
"Emma, have you felt the presence of meat bait?" Ma Wei looked at his daughter.
"Hmm... It seems there is." Yunia thought hard: "I can't remember... After all, dad, you have a lot of divine aura in you!"
Mavey, who has been to many kingdoms of gods, has already left the mark of a god deep in his soul. He is born to be the biggest disruptor. It is normal for Yunia, who has always been by Mavey's side, to ignore the auras of other gods.
['Meat bait' does not always exist, it just appears suddenly every once in a while...]
Muir's voice sounded in Ma Wei's mind: [The last time 'Meat Bait' appeared was at night half a month ago...]
Half a month ago....
Ma Wei counted the dates and recalled, and suddenly discovered that half a month ago was the time when St. Paul's Cathedral was attacked and countless prisoners escaped.
In those two days, there were only two major events, the Four Pillars' invasion of London and the prisoner's escape. Mavey remembered it very clearly.
"Are you sure you sensed it correctly?" Ma Wei frowned and said, "Because half a month ago at night, the goddesses of health came to London. Could what you feel be the three goddesses of fate?"
[The aura of the three goddesses of destiny is different from the 'meat bait' aura that appeared a month ago. I can identify it...]
Ma Wei seriously suspected that the 'meat bait' was a trap set by Mr. Butler.
No wonder there have been a lot of big events happening in London recently, and the ancient gods are causing trouble in their relationships!
But what exactly is 'meat bait'?
If we want to say that the body left behind by the gods is also contaminated with the aura of the gods, Ma Wei feels that one of Odin's eyes is sealed in the Eye of the Golden Crow.
And the message carrying the Eye of the Golden Crow happens to be the key left by Nelei Yinda, the God of Apocalypse!
Plus Siren's Tears, Heart of the Jungle...
Rose Phantom Thief Laiwen Bojie has developed an inseparable connection with the Apocalypse God System, the Odin God System, and the Ancient God Asis!
More than half of the clues Ma Wei has are provided by letters!
This guy is the son of destiny!
If he hadn't lived to be 30 years old, Ma Wei would have wanted to trade with him...
This also proves that the Bojie family is no small matter. Back then, the first pope of the Apocalypse divine system was a member of the Bojie family named Yin Zhinie.
The Bojie family, which withered due to the curse, should have perished early and been submerged in the long river of history, but they inherited it firmly and ushered in the turn of the next era.
Is it possible that all of this is Yinzine Bojie's trick, and the purpose is to let the Bojie family pass on in the changing times?
Ma Wei smiled, shook this unrealistic idea out of his head, and said to Muir: "Did you get help from Mr. Butler when you sneaked into London?"
[Yes, London is shrouded in a huge forbidden magic circle. If I force it through, it will attract the attention of the three goddesses of destiny, so I can only use the protection of the funeral train. Mr. Butler said that the train is made of mithril. When passing through the forbidden magic circle, the mithril field will be activated to avoid the perception of gods....]
"You said the funeral train was made of mithril?"
Ma Wei suddenly became energetic, as if he had grasped some important clue: "It requires magic power to activate the Mithril Realm. If the funeral train can use the Mithril Realm, it means that someone on the train is providing power to the Mithril Realm... Yes Train driver?"
【I have no idea...】
Ma Wei asked himself this question. There are only two possibilities for the funeral train to activate the mithril realm when passing through the forbidden magic circle:
1. There are beings on the funeral train who can use magic.
2. Mr. Butler...has mastered the method of storing magic power!
Thinking of the monster that suddenly appeared tonight, Ma Wei increasingly felt that the latter was more likely!
The source of the power of the living statue is alchemical magic, and the butler who secretly mined the ruins of Londinium must have found the technology of alchemical magic!
Store magic...or create magic!
Once this idea is realized, what kind of situation will the belief in God be in?
Do humans still need them?
Perhaps human greed has never stopped, and the desire for the power of gods has made countless people become fire thieves intent on stealing the power of gods.
They have no fear of God!
But isn’t Mr. Butler related to the ancient god’s forces?
What benefits would it bring to the ancient gods to develop monsters that move independently?
There were too few clues for Ma Wei to figure it out, but he knew that Mr. Butler was full of mysteries and had many unknown secrets.
"Muir, you came to London for 'Meat Bait', right?"
【yes...】
"Very good. I think Mr. Butler also gave you a piece of mithril that can shield your perception, right?"
【Yes....】
"What reward does he ask of you?"
[I gave him 1 ounce of blood....]
"In other words, the deal between you and him has been completed since you left the station, right?"
【Yes....】
The smile on Ma Wei's face deepened: "In that case, have you thought about your next plan?"
Muir's voice was full of confusion: [If I find the 'meat bait', I will leave London. What do you want to do? 】
"I may not be able to provide you with the 'meat bait' that has the aura of the gods, but..."
Ma Wei stretched out his hand towards Yunia: "Emma, give me your snack box."
"oh..."
Yunia took out the snack box she carried with her and handed it to Ma Wei. After opening it, Ma Wei took out a silver melon seed full of divine aura: "Do you know what this is?"
【'Meat bait'! You have 'meat bait'! 】
"This is not meat bait, but a treasure produced by a friend of mine. Before coming to London, I prepared a hundred pieces, but Emma has already eaten almost all of them..." Mawei counted the boxes. There were not many melon seeds left in the bag: "There are 5 more, do you want them?"
【Give me! Give it to me quickly! 】
Seeing the melon seeds produced by Ailan, Muir lost his previous calmness and even his fear dissipated a lot. His voice was full of excitement. If Yunia hadn't been there to frighten him, he would have started to rob it.
Ailan can produce green melon seeds that carry the aura of the gods. It is thought that Yunia was able to complete her first promotion because she ate a lot of green melon seeds.
If Muir regards green melon seeds as 'meat bait' that can attract extraordinary creatures, then Ma Wei thinks that before the green melon seeds leave Ailan's body, the aura of the gods will not leak out, and Yunia picked the melon seeds. He just stuffed it into his mouth and finished eating it in a while. The divine aura disappeared completely before it spread out, so naturally it couldn't attract extraordinary creatures.
The second reason is probably related to the fact that Ailan is still in its infancy. At present, it is not a real alchemy tree. It needs time to grow, and the melon seeds it produces cannot be compared with the real body of the god.
but....
For Muir, who had never seen green melon seeds, the temptation was great enough.
"You can if you want."
Ma Wei threw the green melon seeds in his hand to Muir. The seeds disappeared as soon as they flew into the air and were swallowed by Muir.
【I want more! 】
"Gone."
[I have seen that there is more in the box! 】
"Oh, you said this..."
Ma Wei put away the snack box that was deliberately shown to Muir and returned it to Yunia: "The melon seeds just now are a meeting gift from me. They are considered as rewards for answering my questions just now. If you want more, you can Consider working with me.”
【cooperate? 】
"Yes, you came to London to find 'meat bait', and I can provide you with a substitute for 'meat bait'. In other words, I am the most important person to you, right?"
Muir fell into silence. After a long time, he agreed and said:
【Um】
"If I am the most important person to you, why don't you follow me? After all, I am the only one in London who has melon seeds, and you can't beat Emma. If you want to get melon seeds, don't you have to listen to me?"
This time Muir did not remain silent for long:
【Um】
Ma Wei's tone became softer and he said earnestly: "Actually, you know in your heart that the 'meat bait' is probably a trap set by others, but you just can't resist the temptation, right?"
"You have to understand that those people are very cruel. If you are caught by them, let alone 'meat bait', you will definitely be reduced to an experiment, tied to the experimental table and cut into pieces, tut tut tut... ..The scene was really horrific.”
Muir seemed to think of some terrible scene, and the tentacles wrapped around Ma Wei shook.
"Now, you have two choices before you."
Ma Wei held out two fingers and said: "The first option is that you risk your life to snatch the 'meat bait', and then you fall into the trap set by others and become an experimental subject. You live in pain every day."
"The second option is much easier. Follow me and I will provide you with melon seeds regularly. Over time, the rewards you will get will definitely exceed the 'meat bait'... What do you think?"
[I think the second option is better.... How many melon seeds do you have? 】
"Countless!"
With a firm and sincere attitude, Mawei said loudly: "We have Ailan that can continuously produce melon seeds! It will send us endless melon seeds!"
Muir was somewhat moved: [Sounds very good...]
"It's more than good?" Ma Wei shrugged: "Others covet your body and your power, but I am different. I believe that both extraordinary creatures and humans can coexist peacefully under reasonable rules!"
"And you, my friend, Muir..."
"As a representative of the Yugoklis tribe, you will try to start a life of peaceful coexistence with humans. You will become the hero of the tribe!"
【real? ! 】
"I'm a man of my word, remember, I never lie."
