Needless to say, what emerged from the cave was a snake-man. To be honest, this thing didn't look like a snake at all to Duanmu Huai. In fact, it looked more like a lizard-man.
"Huh? Is this the snake man? I thought I would see someone like Medusa."
Look, even Mary thought so. Who named these things Snake People in the first place? Snakes hadn't even appeared when this thing was born.
"Leave it to you and Lorena, no problem."
"Yes, no problem, please leave it to me!"
As long as the other person is not human, Mary doesn't seem to feel hesitant. Seeing this scene, Duanmu Huai nodded with satisfaction, and then took a few steps back.
To be honest, most players actually prefer to recruit NPCs from worlds with relatively backward civilizations for the following reasons.
First, these people have less knowledge and are relatively easy to deceive.
Second, their civilization is relatively underdeveloped, so they will be surprised to see players' space stations and fleets, which will quite satisfy the players' inflated mentality.
Third, and most importantly, they are unlikely to be attracted to races other than humans.
People in these times have generally only seen humans, so once they see other races - especially those who are fierce, dangerous, and not very cute, they will only regard each other as monsters at the first time, rather than as humans. Treat them as equal existing civilized creatures.
This is also the reason why Duanmu Huai, Leia, and An's countries have relatively good relations, but they only maintain a certain cooperative relationship when facing the Star Alliance.
Because the Star Alliance itself is already an interstellar civilization, once they recognize the existence of alien civilizations, they will treat those aliens as equal beings. This is certainly intolerable to the human supremacist tribunal. The reason why Duanmu Huai let Zhen Ji Ling live broadcast on the Starlink network was to brainwash the Starlink people and lock their aesthetics firmly at the human level.
In other words, even if these viewers become XP who "like cute girls with fluffy ears and tails", it is better than being obsessed with those blue-skinned Asari female octopuses.
But in fact, there are alien factions within the Star Alliance. However, from the perspective of the Inquisition, whether as a player or as an inquisitor, they hope that their subordinates will regard other alien civilizations as either monster races or low-level ones. And other creatures - in short, they must not be allowed to think of those monsters as beings equal to human civilization.
So from this point of view, Mary is actually very qualified. Although she still hesitates and wavers when facing humans, when facing monsters that don't look like humans, Mary can already take action without hesitation - this is great.
Of course, people who have set foot in the interstellar era may think that this concept is too "racist" and represents some kind of "racial discrimination", but Duanmuhuai doesn't care. Human beings are the most important thing. Everything else is unimportant. You can say whatever you want. I won’t hesitate to throw an extermination order on the heads of those alien hybrids. Races other than humans are not trustworthy, and the less human they are, the less trustworthy they are.
After all, if the physiological structure is not like that of humans, it means that the two sides have nothing in common, so Duanmu Huai thought that the doctor was an idiot at the beginning - she actually wanted to be friends with the Na'vi people. This was really stupid and retarded behavior. It's almost as ridiculous as a human being marrying a shark.
No matter how good the relationship between the two parties is, aliens are aliens. This relationship applies not only to humans and alien creatures, but also to humans and other creatures.
Just like people and dogs, some people like dogs and think they are smart, well-behaved, cute and humane. But even so, you can never guarantee when that dog will give you or someone else a bite.
In Duanmu Huai's view, it is enough to treat aliens like this. If you are too close, forget the difference between humans and dogs, and insist on letting dogs acquire the identity of humans, that is another matter.
To be honest, the pro-alien faction within the Star Alliance is still very powerful. Lumière has also reported to Duanmuhuai several times. They said this is to better allow the Star Alliance to join the cosmic family. Because, other people should not be too discriminatory against other alien races, and claim that "the other party just looks different from us, but in fact we have the same feelings"... Hahaha, if you say that, why don't you go to Jie On the land of Sri Lanka, let’s see if those artificial intelligences will have the same feelings as you, or will they tear you into pieces?
In the era of the Human Empire, this kind of faction had long been uprooted by the Inquisition, and everyone would be hanged from the street and publicly executed.
But now... If he hadn't known that the reapers would come sooner or later, Duanmu Huai wouldn't be able to help but want to take action.
Forget it, let’s wait. When the reapers come, they will find a reason to send these people to the territories of those alien races. Since they like to communicate with aliens so much, then they do not want to be born in the same year, the same month and the same day, but they want to die in the same year, the same month and the same day.
While Duanmu Huai was thinking about this idea, Lorena and Mary had already cooperated to kill several snake-men who came over. To be honest, just looking at the appearance of these snake-men, I couldn't imagine that they were from the dinosaur era. A race that has created a prosperous civilization on this planet before and has made achievements in magic and technology.
After all, these snake men are just like primitive people, holding spears and making disgusting hissing sounds from their mouths. To be honest, ordinary humans would probably be frightened when they see this kind of monster, but Lorena and Mary have gone through several battles, and of course they will not be frightened by such a bluffing monster. Destroy them completely.
"Pick up the pace, we have to hurry up."
Although these snake guards seemed to just happen to come out for a look, Duanmu Huai would not slow down. He said something and then continued to stride forward - after passing through a dark tunnel, the three People came to another underground hall again.
"Wow..."
Seeing the scene in the hall in front of her, Mary's eyes widened in surprise again. This time Duanmuhuai couldn't say that she was fussing over it. The reason was obvious. In fact, the scene in front of her was indeed surprising.
In the huge underground cavity, ancient snake-man characters and sculptures are painted on the surrounding walls, and on the huge natural stone pillar in the middle, a huge snake statue is hovering in it. In front of this huge stone snake statue is a huge stone altar, with incense burners burning incense on both sides. In addition, there are also translucent things hanging from the ceiling that look like cocoons.
Under the dim light, you can see that there seems to be a snake-like shadow curled up inside.
"Hiss..."
However, at this moment, an unbelievable scene happened.
The stone snake statue that looked like it was wrapped around a stone pillar suddenly began to move slowly. It widened its eyes and glared fiercely at Duanmu Huai and the others. Then it opened its mouth, and then countless snakes seemed to appear. Water spurted out from the stone snake's mouth like a waterfall, covering the ground in a matter of seconds, and climbed up towards Duanmu Huai and the others.
"Alas-----!!"
Seeing this scene, both Lorena and Mary couldn't help but scream. Not only did Mary turn blue, but even Lorena took a few steps back while holding the holy book - this is normal, after all. These snakes are only of average size, and even if Lorena wants to attack them, it is almost impossible.
Only Duanmu Huai stood there, staring at the group of snakes in front of him, while not forgetting to tease the two of them.
"Why, didn't you say you're not afraid of snakes?"
"There is a limit! Who wouldn't be afraid of so many snakes?"
"There are so many snakes here, what should we do? Mr. Duanmu?"
Mary was even more frightened and stood there, at a loss.
"Nothing else to do, I want to see if they dare to come over!"
Duanmu Huai still stood where he was, then he stared at the snakes and snorted coldly.
"roll!!"
Following Duanmuhuai's angry roar, the group of snakes that had been advancing finally stopped the next moment, but they did not leave. Instead, they stuck out their tongues not far from Duanmuhuai and made a "hissing" sound. Like an army under command, they faced Duanmu Huai from afar.
"Wow... I didn't expect Mr. Duanmu to be so powerful, he could even scare snakes."
"Snake is nothing. Lord Knight has scared ghosts before. When we were with him, ghosts didn't even dare to come to us."
"Huh? Is that so?"
"……………………"
After hearing the subsequent conversation, Duanmu Huai rolled his eyes helplessly.
Why does Lorena tend to get closer to Ogis?
But now, I have more important things to do.
"Come out, Ig, I know you're here."
Duanmuhuai stared ahead and said calmly.
"Rumble, rumble..."
As soon as Duanmuhuai finished speaking, he heard a roar from the ground, and then he saw the huge stone snake wrapped around the pillar in front of him began to move slowly. It quietly fell from the pillar, then raised its head and stared at Duanmu Sophora japonica. Duanmu Huai also stared at it and clenched his fists.
Immediately afterwards…………
"hiss!!!"
The stone snake opened its mouth and let out a scream, then it flew out like a sharp arrow and rushed directly towards Duanmu Huai. At the same time, the hundreds of snakes made the same sound, opened their mouths, exposed their fangs, and pounced towards Duanmuhuai.
Oh, why do you think I'm easy to bully?
Seeing this scene, Duanmu Huai's face also darkened. Although they are both the old rulers, the snake gods Ig and Glaaki are existences of completely different levels. Perhaps in its view, they are just foreign gods who overestimate their abilities?
Very good, I will let you see what the God of Destruction is!
Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai clenched his fists, black flames instantly burst out from his body, and then Duanmu Huai punched the ground!
"boom!!!"
The huge fist hit the ground hard, and then the black flames spread out like ripples in a pond. Not only did the originally smooth ground shatter into pieces, but under the impact of the black flames, the group of snakes that rushed towards them also also Directly reduced to ashes. The huge shock wave made the stone snake that rushed over couldn't help but raise its head and stop its movements.
However, at this moment, Duanmu Huai swayed and came to the stone snake. Then he clenched his fists and blasted hard at the stone snake in front of him!
"Eula! Euler Euler Euler Euler Euler!!!"
The punch was like a storm-like bombardment, hitting the stone snake directly. The stone snake was obviously carved from hard stone, but at this moment it was completely like a sandbag, allowing Duanmuhuai's attack to fall mercilessly on him. .
"Euler————!!"
With the last roar, Duanmu Huai's clenched right fist shot out again, hitting the stone snake seven inches in the face. The huge stone snake was knocked off the ground by Duanmu Huai and fell backwards. It flew out, hit the stone pillar heavily, and then completely collapsed.
"Wow..."
Seeing this, Mary was shocked.
Strictly speaking, this was the first time she witnessed Duanmu Huai's unreserved burst of combat power. When she was in Antarctica, because her attention was focused on her friends, Mary didn't care too much about this aspect, but now... …………
"Wow."
However, at this moment, suddenly, a soft sound came from the ruins of the Stone Snake, and then, a figure slowly walked out from the dusty debris.
It looks like it has a male body that is almost as strong as Duanmuhuai, with a long snake's tail behind it, and its whole body is covered with dark green scales. And its head is also like a snake. This monster is just staring at Duanmuhuai, a long snake letter spits out from its mouth, and its two golden eyes are exuding a cold light.
Just seeing it there, Mary and Lorena felt cold all over their bodies. Just by being glanced at by it, they felt as if there were countless snakes crawling on the surface of their skin - but luckily Duanmu Huai turned sideways to block the sight of the snake-headed man, and the two of them could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"You finally came out, Ig. I thought you would hide."
"Foolish mortal."
Snake God Ige stared at Duanmuhuai and said calmly.
"You have no idea what the cost of offending me is."
"It doesn't matter."
Duanmuhuai clenched his fists again and moved his joints.
"I have only one purpose here, which is to completely destroy you and your deformed descendants... Now, I think you are ready to die."
"madness."
Ige raised his hands, revealing his sharp claws.
"What you are doing is just pulling you into destruction!"
"Well said, because.........Destruction is my strong point!"
Before he finished speaking, Duanmu Huai suddenly rushed forward. At the same time, he clenched his fist and swung it hard at Ige!
