Extraordinary pedigree

"Rong Lai, I'll leave it to you to take care of the swarm of volcano bugs nearby. You just need to keep an eye on the [Bishop] to prevent blind bugs from crossing the border."

Rong's auditory organs picked up the voice of Yan Lin, who was responsible for guarding the volcano insect swarm nearby, and he could hear the obvious impatience in the other person's words.

As guardians, they actually don't pay much attention to the work of taking care of the animals. Or should I say, they look down on this job. They feel that this kind of work should be left to the bottom mushroom farmers.

Volcano worms are small bugs that can survive in lava valleys. They feed on microorganisms in the lava and have extremely high heat tolerance. The special mineral substances they secrete can promote the growth of [Yelnia]. The bacteria grow on the bacterial culture tanks, so [Sulfide City] also specially divided an area to raise them.

The adaptability of volcano worms is extremely strong, and the inner earth world has evolved a variety of volcano worm groups. They have sulfur-colored eyes, black ink-like appearances, and bodies covered with horns.

Most volcano bugs are violent and aggressive. The danger of a single volcano worm is low, but if a group of volcanoes forms a sea of ​​​​worms, the risk factor will begin to increase exponentially.

Therefore, the important task of protecting the volcano can only be left to the most combat-effective guardians in Yerniya.

At this moment, Yanlin, who was off duty, was waving his six limbs with joy. He raised one of the limbs, and pulled off two of them with three fingers. The remaining one pointed straight ahead and squirmed in an orderly manner. Volcano bug.

"That's a convenient sheepfold made by the wise men based on the knowledge on the sacred object cube. The pronunciation of the syllables of this word is very weird. It is two steps less than the pronunciation of our Yerniya language. The wise men analyzed it through semantics , they believed that the so-called sheepfold was used to drive away some kind of creature similar to volcanoes. Through research, the wise men finally discovered the name of this creature-lamb.

Once upon a time, some wise men proposed that the sheep pen should be turned into an insect pen. However, we in Yelnia have always respected knowledge and civilization, so this proposal was rejected. It is still called a sheep pen in Yelnia, although all Yelnia Nia has never seen the so-called lamb. "

Rong's eyes looked at the strange-looking instrument. The outer shell tissue near his compound eye blinked rapidly. The power supply device in front that should have been used to connect the portable sheep pen had turned into a simple ground at some point. Heart fiber rope.

"Convenient sheep pens can be used to drive volcanoes around the turf, but it is mostly free at any time, and few volcanoes will try to cross that line. At night, put the volcanoes The worms rush across the creek and go to the circle with the largest number of volcanic worms. You will soon find that the volcanic worms will definitely stay in the circle and stay far away from the fence. The fence does not even need to carry the power provided by the device. function, so replace it with a rope, which is easier to move." Yanlin explained to Rong Xi

"What about the newly born volcanoes or the newly arrived volcanoes?"

Rong Xi asked, tilting his head and looking at Yan Lin with his compound eyes with a strange luster. Yan Lin naturally understood what Rong Xi meant.

"They will wander," Yan Lin admitted Rong Lai's conjecture, and he continued, "But they won't cause trouble and will quickly learn to be gregarious. The strange thing is that you will be interested in this phenomenon, Rong Lai - —The weird thing is, most of these volcano bugs never hit the fence and got electrocuted. Most of them were born after we disconnected the wires."

At this moment, Yan Lin was like a creator, overlooking the volcano bugs advancing in an orderly manner, and said in an extremely arrogant tone:

"So it has become a tradition for these volcanoes to never go near the rope - the volcanoes learned this from their elders, and they never question their elders' judgment!"

"Fortunately, volcano bugs can't talk," Rong Lai stared closely at the harmless rope in front of him, and continued, "otherwise, there must be a wise volcano bug among them who will ask: 'Why?' .”

"One day, the doubter's baby volcano will touch the rope with its horns and nothing will happen, but in silence the entire volcano breeding colony will be shaken to its foundations,"

Rong Yan said this with an inexplicable tone. He swore that he had never spoken such depressing Yelniya language in the past as he did at this moment. He seemed to be returning to his younger self in the apprenticeship class, always questioning the rules of the wise and the accuracy of the "Great Code". At that time, he was always laughed at by other apprentices of the same class, so he rarely mentioned it later. Disobeying the wise men's stupid words, when he was patrolling with Guibo, he quoted the wise men's words to refute the other party's stupidity.

But now, he felt that he was back to his stupid self in the past. He retorted to Yan Lin with some obsession. He said to him extremely seriously:

"And after the silence, the volcano swarms will cross these ropes and riot!"

"I should have told you earlier," Yanlin said calmly, "A large part of the traditional power comes from the quiet animals you see over there." He pointed out a beautiful [Abyssal Moth].

It is a huge moth that is extremely sensitive to weak light. It likes to gather near aglow moss and has extremely strong fighting power. When it waves its two black wing membranes, it will cause terrifying cuts. Wind blades, these wind blades can easily tear enemies into pieces.

[Abyss Moth] and [Yelnia] are bound together through a strain of bacteria called [Symbiotic Mutual Bacteria]. They are equivalent to the "dogs" domesticated by Yelnia.

At this moment, the abyss moth looked at them from afar.

"We call him Bishop."

Yanlin continued to say to Rong Lao calmly:

"Bishop is another unfamiliar word. But what is certain is that in a certain civilization that we are not clear about, there are creatures called lambs. They have been taught everything by their elders since they were born, and they deeply believe in it. The words of the elders are regarded as the highest laws that cannot be disobeyed, even if these laws sometimes seem very stupid and ridiculous.

Of course, there must be wise men among the lambs. However, there is a creature called a bishop who is responsible for hunting wise men or driving them away. The bishops hope that the lambs will continue to be stupid. As for the reason, I think it may be because they are two kinds of people. Different creatures, that's why the bishop hates the lambs so much, wishing they would remain stupid forever. "

Yanlin patted the melted chitin shell, and then left here gracefully.

Rong Yan was silent, an inexplicable sense of absurdity pressed against him, and his mind recalled a certain scene that he had never wanted to recall before.

In the scene of his memory, he was sitting next to a weak germ lamp in a dark room, his six limbs tightly holding a knowledge cube used to spread the message of the wise man. Through the tentacles on his hands, he quickly read the content on the square, which read: "The war against Tyrannox has been won, all Yelnia rejoice!"

However, just now, the knowledge cube he received on the front line was clearly printed on it: "The war against Tyrannox continues, destroy these disgusting guys who are trying to destroy the holy objects."

Rong Yan still held the previous block in his hand, and his eyes swept from one side to the other. There was no confusion or doubt in his compound eyes.

His thoughts were filled with firm conviction, as if two completely contradictory facts were both true in his mind. His compound eyes moved rapidly back and forth over the square, convinced at one moment that the war had been won, and at the next completely convinced that the war was still going on.

This transformation was so rapid and natural, as if these two diametrically opposed facts coexisted harmoniously in his mind without any conflict.

There is a lot of information in the knowledge cube, all of which is conclusive.

Yes, with so much information and supporting evidence, how could Yelnia not believe it?

Are they contradictory to each other?

But there are so many of them like a torrent!

You didn't see it with your own eyes, couldn't you see the gaps in the truth?

However, these are the words of a wise man!

There was an absurd sense of oppression in the surrounding air, as if time and logic had been distorted, becoming something beyond common sense.

Bishop and Lamb.

Lamb and Bishop.

Bishops and wise men.

Lambs and Yernians.

Wise men and Yernians.

Bishop, wise man, lamb, Yernia, bishop, lamb...

Boom! ! !

The huge knocking sound pulled Rong Yan out of the huge sense of absurdity. His chest rose and fell rapidly, and the chest shell emitted special chemicals that Yelnia would only release in an emergency.

"Oh, you finally stopped being in a daze. I thought you would continue to stand there for a while, but I didn't expect you to wake up before the low-radiation pulse came. It seems that your cognitive impedance coefficient is slightly higher than I thought. Is it higher because of the difference in the brain? Is Yelnia like insects in the world, without a cerebral cortex and just a simple organ composed of a few main nerve masses (segments)? "

A gentle voice was transmitted into Rong Lai's mind through his sensory organs. He looked forward subconsciously, and then his pupils tightened. He didn't know when it started, but he was pulled into an extremely strange space.

In the dim room, the weak light barely illuminated a few pieces of furniture.

A low wooden coffee table stood quietly in the center of the room, with a slightly old book and an untouched cup of black tea placed on it. There is a rocking chair in the corner, lying there quietly, as if waiting for someone to come and sit down.

In one corner, an ancient desk lamp casts a faint light.

Under the dim light of the desk lamp, the center of the table is particularly eye-catching. A chessboard is neatly placed there, with black and white squares clearly visible. The chessboard appears as a square, divided into 64 small squares, each square taking turns to display black and white. White for a sharp contrast.

Eight rows and eight columns are arranged neatly, with clear boundaries and full colors.

On one side of the chessboard, a man wearing strange clothes and a transparent glass cover on his head was sitting next to a chair. His index finger rhythmically tapped the empty table on the side of the chessboard. It was the same person who woke up Rong Xi just now. Strange knocking sound.

"Where is this place!!!"

Everything around him was too unfamiliar to Yelnia, including strange furniture, strange decorations, and strange creatures.

At this moment, the flowers on Rong Lai's head suddenly bloomed, and the terrifying bacteria began to spread outward. At the same time, the chitinous shell on his appearance also began to expand violently.

"Unlike other insects, the compound eye structure of ordinary insects is relatively fixed and will not change due to the insect's emotional or psychological state, such as fear or anger. However, Yerniya is obviously different. Their eyes have obvious emotional feedback. And compound eyes are very sensitive to changes in light."

The strange creature ignored him. Instead, it continued to play with the white chess piece in its hand with great interest and talked to itself.

And this made Rong Li even more angry. He hated this strange species that pretended to be gods and ghosts, so he decided to use violence.

His body swelled to the extreme under the influence of various enhanced bacteria, and the surrounding area was covered with toxins. His body sank slightly, and then shot out like a cannonball, with six limbs blasting directly towards the opponent's facade.

"Buzz——"

A strange sound sounded, and Rong Yan felt his feet stagger at this moment, and his core was unstable.

So, he quickly adjusted his limbs and then raised his head again.

"how come····"

The beak-like organ in Rong's mouth opened in surprise at this moment, and his compound eyes couldn't help but reveal an inexplicable horror.

He returned to his original location.

It was as if he were traveling back in time, following the clock in the opposite direction and returning to the starting point.

"When you see aliens, oh, we are all from Terra, so to put it another way, when you see an alien species, you shouldn't be curious. Why did you come up here and intend to crush me to ashes?"

Rong Yan saw the strange creature in front of him tilting his head and talking to himself in the most authentic Yelnya language.

He felt like he was going crazy.

What is going on with all this inexplicable stuff!

He needs someone to answer him.

"Who are you, the new bipedal species of Tyrannox?" Rong Lai asked, suppressing the fear in his heart and looking at the strange species in front of him with extreme fear.

Dong Dong Dong~

The strange creature stretched out its hand, knocked on the glass mask above its head, and continued to speak incomprehensible words in Yerniya.

"The bipedal walking species seems to be indeed the mechanical species of [Amoni City State]. Are bionic humans or simple robots?"

"Answer me, what on earth are you!!!" Rong Lai let out a wailing roar like a beast on the verge of death.

"What am I?"

Rong Yan saw the strange creature in front of him lowering his head and thinking. He seemed to be thinking about how to answer his question.

"If you ask me my current name, then you can call me, Hugh Abraham; well, if you follow the script that is going to follow, my name should be Mephistopheles.

Of course, I can provide you with another code name now, which is more suitable for our current situation. You can call me: Lawyer. "
