Original War

Chapter 752 The Fifth Lock

Shao Xuan didn’t look much at the stones. He turned over Su Le’s recliner. There was a hidden compartment under the recliner, but there were only some beautiful gems in it. Important things might have been taken away by Su Le.

Shao Xuan stepped over the reclining chair and came to the reclining chair behind, where the controller who manipulated the weird man was sitting. There is also a secret compartment under the recliner, there are no gems in it, only a few bottles. Shao Xuan smelled it. Eight bottles, four bottles may be used for healing or other purposes, and should be non-toxic. The other four bottles gave Shao Xuan a bad feeling, maybe it was poison, maybe it was something else. .

Looking at the traces of the hidden grid, there should have been ten bottles in it, but two of them were taken away. Perhaps they were taken away before the other party fled.

Shao Xuan removed the entire secret compartment and put it aside. He walked around in this cabin, then changed his field of view, and scanned the cabin. There were no other hidden compartments here, but there was another layer below the cabin, and in Shao Xuan’s field of vision, there was another one below. Personally, he can only see the skeleton, not knowing what that person looks like, but Shao Xuan became vigilant after seeing the skeleton below.

The human skeleton is very bright in Shao Xuan’s vision. The bones of the strong and the weak are different. In Shao Xuan’s special vision, the bones of the strong should be brighter. Some, the bones below this are brighter than those of Ao and Zhengluo! Shao Xuan had never seen bones so bright in a human body.

The flame that had just been extinguished by the knife in his hand ignited again. Shao Xuan had to be cautious. He did not feel the breath of a living person, nor did he feel the fluctuation of other powers. He thought that there was no such kind of weird man who was manipulated here, but who was below?

Shao Xuan jumped out of the hut, raised his arm and swiped his hand. The side of the hut close to the ground was cut out with a gap, through which he could see the situation inside.

Inside, there is a long wooden box, like a coffin, containing people in it.

Still nothing happened.

A long gap was broken under the hut, and the beetles did not crawl inside. The hut seemed to be sprayed with medicine, which had the effect of repelling the beetles, so those beetles would not come close here.

Shao Xuan looked inside for a while, walked over, and dragged the coffin out with his hand without a knife.

The strange thing was that those little beetles could not get close to the coffin, and they didn’t get close at all. After Shao Xuan dragged the coffin out and put it on the ground, the surrounding beetles avoided.

Could it be that this coffin has also been sprinkled with insecticide?

“A Xuan, what is that?”

They dare not come close because of the worm infestation, so they can only stand farther and watch. Seeing that Shao Xuan dragged such an object from under the hut, others were also curious.

“I don’t know.” Shao Xuan said, using the tip of a knife to open the upper cover.

Inside was a shriveled person with bluish skin, and the clothes on his body looked a little strange and crude. It looked broken, and the ornaments seemed to be left for a long time, and they would shatter when pinched. .

If you just look at the clothes and accessories, this corpse should have been left for a long time, but this corpse looks similar to the other weird people under control. Its whole body is shriveled, and you can clearly see the traces of the ribs and the abdomen. It is sunken, but there is no trace of breaking.

Those weird people showed signs of breaking open because their organs were taken out, but this one didn’t. Is it because the people in Yanling didn’t have time to do it, or did they deliberately fail to do this step? Or is it another reason?

There was a sound of eagles outside, and Shao Xuan stopped looking at the person and put the lid back on. This kind of weird person is not suitable for exposure to the sun, otherwise the controllers would not cover the weird person with a thick cloth. In order to block the sun.

Chacha didn’t participate in the close-field warfare. It had been staring at high altitude to prevent other people from approaching and let them get the enemy. Now Chacha reminded it again, but it was not an enemy attack, but Sapphire was back.

Shao Xuan could feel it even if he hadn’t reminded him, but the appearance of the sapphire was a bit miserable. Both forelimbs and hind legs were seriously injured. One of the two forelimbs was missing, and the other was not so good. There were multiple injuries. The hind leg is similar to the forelimb injury, and there are many impact marks on the carapace. It is obviously a smooth arc, but it seems to have been smashed.

It was not so miserable when it came out of the sand before chasing the golden armor beast, obviously it was caused by continuing to hunt down.

When Sapphire came back, he was pushing a sand ball. It likes to wrap the trophy into a ball and push it.

When the sapphire was pushing the ball upside down, the sand ball was a little higher than it, and on the sand ball, two pieces of golden hard armor were shining under the sun.

It was a two-linked hard piece of the golden armor behemoth with flesh and skin on it, which was abruptly picked off from the golden armor behemoth.

Shao Xuan moved his gaze away from the sand ball and placed it on the sapphire who had already walked in front of him.

Looking closer, Shao Xuan found that the shovel-like head of the sapphire was a bit crooked, and the two paddle-shaped tentacles were hanging like folded antennas.

When Sapphire was chasing it, Shao Xuan didn’t let it fight to the death, but he didn’t expect that this guy would chase it to such a point.

Sapphire seemed to be anxious to explain something, because there was a conscious connection, Shao Xuan could also roughly know why it failed to bring Su Le and the manipulator. Su Le and the others have reinforcements, otherwise it wouldn’t be so miserable.

Sapphire rolled the big sand ball in front of Shao Xuan, which meant that Shao Xuan checked the results. The two folded tentacles swayed, a little hurriedly and nervously.

Seeing the sapphire like this, Shao Xuan smiled, broke the sand ball with a knife, and dug out two golden ring-shaped hard armor from the sand ball. There was no one inside, but there were still two small bottles, and Shao Xuan The eight bottles found in the secret compartment of the hut should be together, perhaps dropped by each other when they were chased by Sapphire.

The mouth of the bottle was tightly blocked, and Shao Xuan looked at it. The bottle was not broken. The medicine inside had a refreshing smell, which refreshed people, because it should be a healing medicine.

In addition to these, Shao Xuan also dug a palm-sized blue metal plate from the sand ball, with lettering on it, engraved with the number “twenty-two”.

Let’s not talk about the meaning of this number. The palm-sized metal plate in Shao Xuan’s hand is similar to the new bronze of Yanjiao. It should be made by the people of Yanling with the blood of the blue-faced fangs, but the texture is slightly different. It’s better than Yanjiao, and it’s more refined.

Looking at the big blue beetle standing in front of him nervously, Shao Xuan asked, “Do you want to unlock the last lock?”

The two tentacles of the sapphire vibrated, and the part that was folded down seemed to be lifted up, and the missing hind legs kicked on the sand, which was agitated.

In fact, Shao Xuan didn’t plan to unlock the fifth lock so soon. One was that he didn’t wake up long after unlocking the fourth lock of Sapphire. If he unlocked the fifth lock so quickly, there would be certain risks.

Second, it is also the one that Shao Xuan considered the most. The more slaves he unlocks, the stronger his own strength. Many slaves who break free from the shackles are unlocked after unlocking the second and third locks, relying on their talent and will. Force to rush. Sapphire’s body is different from the slaves of the other three locks. When Shao Xuan enslaved it, he put down five locks, and now he has unlocked four locks.

Shao Xuan didn’t know if this big beetle would break away from the control of the owner after the fifth way was unveiled, or even break free from the power of enslavement, but after he left the desert this time, he didn’t know when he would come next time, and whether the injured sapphire would come. Will be watched by the people of Yanling, what will happen then? Shao Xuan could not predict.

The people who did not catch Su Le this time, with Su Le’s vengeful temperament, will definitely do everything possible to get revenge. Yanjiao is too far away from the desert, and it is unlikely that Su Le will leave the desert, so he can only use the sapphire. Now, the target of the insect tide is too big, it is not impossible for Su Le to find the sapphire, and he can even make some traps to lure the insect swarm.

Many factors need to be considered. If you are not careful, the knife in your hand may become a tool for stabbing your own. But Sapphire’s performance this time made Shao Xuan decide to unlock the fifth lock.

Jiju said that the loyalty of the first slave was much higher than that of other slaves. Shao Xuan was also willing to take a gamble. Even if it really breaks free from the control of slavery in the future, it will not turn against Shao Xuan.

In addition to sapphire, this time he came to the desert, Shao Xuan discovered that the sapphire faintly affected the other beetles that followed it. The insect swarm has changed. Some beetles larger than other beetles appear in it. When the sapphire is dormant, those beetles are sweeping the desert with the swarm. In each sweep, beetles die and new beetles join. The colony is larger than before. However, according to the conditions here, the number of beetles in the colony may eventually stay within a range and fluctuate. If there are too many beetles and the food they can catch is limited, they cannot survive normally.

However, what happens to the insect swarm in the future depends on sapphire. A herd with a leader is completely different from a herd without a leader. A herd with a leader knows how to cooperate strategically, while a herd without a leader will be more sloppy and survive. It won’t be long.

“I don’t know what will become after you fully unlock it.” Shao Xuan whispered while looking at the big beetle kicking excitedly in front of him.

When the worm tide receded, the people in Yanjiao took off the armors from the slaves who were willing to have only bones left. In the words of tough armor, they were all good materials for casting.

The two pieces of golden hard armor that Sapphire brought back were also carried by Yanjiao everyone. Shao Xuan carried the wooden box like a coffin, and he planned to go back and study it.

Everyone did not stay in place for a long time, and left after a short rest to prevent the people from Yanling from coming.

When approaching the edge of the desert, Shao Xuan unlocked the fifth lock for Sapphire.

Perhaps, after all unlocked, it can attack the King Beast’s goal like other fierce beasts.
