Law of the Swarm

Chapter 185 Poetry
It has to be said that the intelligence of the two-meter-tall lizardman Thunderclaw was not as low as System imagined.

After seeing System kill the snail, the lizardman went through the initial panic, and immediately began to draw a line with the snail Jess.

And what separates the thunderclaw from the snail is this stained hide.

Thunderclaw quickly explained the origin of this animal skin to System.

It turns out that this animal skin was obtained by Thunderclaw a few years ago when he nearly killed a magical rank lizardman. According to other lizardmen who were captured at the same time, there is a record on this animal skin. A magical spell.

But Thunder Claw was also illiterate, so he naturally didn't know what was recorded in this animal skin.

Later, Thunderclaw met the snail Jess, and after being brainwashed by the snail, he dedicated the animal skin to Jess.

Snail Jess didn't think the things recorded on this animal skin were of any use. After seeing the animal skin, he asked Thunderclaw to throw away the animal skin.

Thunderclaw didn't obey the order of Jess the snail and secretly hid the hide.

Now that the snail was killed, Thunderclaw immediately took out the animal skin, and as if he was riding the wind, he told System about the snail's previous bad deeds.

System didn't know whether it was true or not, he just listened tentatively, and at the same time looked at the unknown material animal skin presented to him by Thunder Claw.

Thunder Claw obviously didn't keep the animal hide properly, the whole animal hide looked very dirty and old, but the material of this animal hide was quite strong, there wasn't any wear and tear, and the words printed on it were also very clear.

System still didn't understand the writing on the animal skin.

But after entering the abyss, the voice of the world imparted the language of the abyss, and System knew that the language recorded on the animal skin was the language of the abyss, but he had not mastered this language for the time being.

The dead snail Jess also didn't know the characters of the abyss, so the snail said that this piece of animal skin was useless, which was probably a deception to the lizardman.

System tried to stab the animal skin with [Dragon Scale Spikes], and found that this piece of animal skin was very strong, even the sharp spikes at the end of his tentacles would only leave some slight scratches on the animal skin , and the scratches will soon heal automatically and disappear.

It seems that even if there is no spell recorded on this piece of animal skin, there must be some important things recorded.

He didn't continue to shake the animal skin, what is the animal skin recorded, just ask Ying after a while.

Although System didn't recognize the abyss characters, Shadow did.

In line with the principle of carrot plus stick.

After telling the lizardman Ant Chongshou is also his subordinate, and let the lizardman Thunderclaw come here every other month.

System did not let Thunderclaw leave immediately, but asked several soldier ant knights to carry over a set of black magic armor brought back from the demiplane treasure vault.

There are a total of thirteen sets of such armor in Rafal's treasury. Under Black's command, the ants brought back two sets from the demiplane.

Neither the ant people nor himself could use this jet-black magical armor with purple patterns.

So System decided to make use of waste and bestow this set of armor on the Lizardman.

However, it was really difficult to maximize the benefits by bestowing the lizard in this way, so System split the whole set of armor into several parts, and first gave the lizardman a helmet and a black battle ax that matched the magic armor.

As long as Thunderclaw conquers other lizardmen tribes, System will give Thunderclaw other parts of the armor according to the situation.

And if Thunderclaw's work efficiency is not satisfactory, System will let Thunderclaw get the same ending as "Soul Harvester" Jess.

Not only will Thunder Claw's magic items be taken back, but also Thunder Claw will be killed by himself, so that Thunder Claw cannot enter the kingdom of death after death, and his soul will be directly returned to nothingness.

After some verbal threats and lures, System officially gave the weapon and helmet to the lizardman.

Somewhat beyond System's expectations, when Thunderclaw put the helmet that didn't fit well on his head, the black helmet gave off a faint purple halo, and the metal shape on the helmet changed, and it fit quickly Thunderclaw's lizard-human brain.

It looks like a custom-made helmet for Thunderclaw.

However, the shape change of the magic helmet obviously has certain restrictions. Due to the limitation of the lizardman's face, the visor on the helmet cannot be put down.

System reckoned that the skirt part of this set of armor should also become strange because of the extra tail of the lizardman.

However, System didn't intend to let the lizardman wear the skirt armor to watch the effect.

After explaining what the lizard man should do, he quickly sent the lizard man away...

……

Under Ying's explanation, System quickly learned what the words on this piece of animal skin were.

There are probably more than 300 abyssal characters on this piece of animal skin, and the records are not so-called strange spells, but something like poetry, praising the legendary dragon Monad who once lived in this swamp .

"His roar resounded through the sky, and the swamps boiled with his approach.

The wyvern crawled before it, and the lizardman sang for him.

No one will know, Monad..."

The content of the poem was quite fluent. System read the poem silently twice, but found nothing unusual about the content of the poem. It was generally about how powerful the green dragon lord Monaid was and how he boasted to the green dragon lord.

But System felt that there must be some secret hidden in this piece of animal skin.

In this unshitty abyss, there are no taverns in human society, and there are no troubadours. System really can't figure out who would write Monade's deeds into poems and then sing them.

Moreover, the material of this piece of animal skin is too strong. After a simple cleaning, it becomes a brand new piece of animal skin, and there are no traces of years on it.

If System hadn't witnessed the transformation of this animal hide with his own eyes, he would even have thought that this animal hide had just been made.

"Is there a clue to Monad's treasure hidden in the poem?"

System remembered what Jess the snail once said that the reason the lizardmen fought was to obtain the treasure and inheritance left by the legendary dragon Monad.

Even if this piece of animal skin has nothing to do with Monad's treasure, it must have some connection with Monad.

System thought of Orla the butterfly. Aura, who had lost his memory, was once a fantasy-ranked frost dragon, much more powerful than the legendary dragon Monad.

As a member of the Dragon Clan, Ola may be able to see what is hidden in this poem.

Because System and Ola have gradually become acquainted in the past few months, System will not resist asking Ola about things.

However, during the process of discussing the animal skin with Aura, System did not get anything useful from Aura.

Instead, I got an unexpected news from the decadent Ola, that Ola's lifespan is less than a hundred days...
