Struggle in the Steam Age

Naturally, such a clean-up work does not require someone with an identity like Lawrence to come forward in person. And because of his status and the contribution he made in the battle, no matter what spoils were seized, his share would not be missed. So that night, when everyone was clearing up the scattered murloc army, they began to use the excuse of rest to check the harvest this time.

For those people, they had already discovered the existence of the monster when it appeared, and they also felt that the monster was related to the gods. So they were actually very curious about how Lawrence and the others defeated the monster. However, because it is a taboo to inquire about other people's superpowers, they can only suppress the curiosity in their hearts and watch Lawrence and the others go to rest.

After returning to his room and making sure that no one was around, Lawrence immediately asked Nora to help him keep watch to ensure that no one would come in and disturb him. Then he lay on the bed and communicated with the Jianmu space. After a few seconds, his spirit body appeared in the Jianmu space smoothly.

As soon as he entered the Jianmu space, Lawrence felt a lot of information pass into his mind. It turned out that the tentacle filled with the power of death just now tried to attack this space after entering this space.

But since the last time Jianmu Space successfully devoured part of the godhead of the Nile Civilization Harpy God, it has been greatly strengthened. So without Lawrence's intervention, Jianmu in the space has successfully suppressed and devoured all the power in this tentacle.

And after devouring this section of tentacles, the entire Jianmu space has been improved again. Jianmu, which was originally located in the center of the space, suddenly became 1/3 larger in size.

At the same time, the original space with a diameter of more than 1,000 meters also suddenly expanded outwards, and expanded to about 1,200 meters at once.

That is to say, if the Jianmu Space wants to upgrade on a large scale, it must devour the power related to the gods. Lawrence looked at the Jianmu Space, which has been significantly upgraded as a whole, thinking thoughtfully.

Thank God, it seems that Jianmu is not very picky now. As long as it is related to the gods, the type of these powers is not specified.

If Jianmu only needs the power related to the real gods to be able to upgrade, then it really can't afford it, because there are not many real gods, and there are very few things related to them. Therefore, it is not only difficult to obtain those things, but it is also easy to cause unnecessary conflicts with the gods.

Leaving aside the powerful combat power of the gods, just being rejected by the entire civilized world after a conflict with the gods is enough to give Lawrence and the others a headache.

After all, he has now chosen the camp of civilization and order and has gained a lot of benefits from it. So don't want to give it all up.

Fortunately, Jianmu Space now seems to only ask for things related to the power of the gods, which is much easier to find than things related to the gods. Compared with gods, which can be said to be extremely rare, the number of existences with a certain degree of divinity but nothing to do with existing gods is hundreds of times that of gods.

More importantly, most of these existences are far less powerful than real gods, and they are all recognized as very evil existences. In this case, not only would hunting them not be rejected by the world, but they would be able to obtain sufficient support, such as intelligence or logistical support.

At least Lawrence can confirm that the Church of Knowledge is willing to provide sufficient information and some logistical services to those superhumans who are willing to crusade against all kinds of divine monsters. Even for superhumans of Nora's level, they can still Send a team or two of church members and friends of those churches to help.

After these things are over, go back and rest for a while, and tidy up the internal affairs of the island by the way. After all the trivial matters are dealt with, go to various churches to find information about monsters with divine nature. Lawrence thought so and floated to Jianmu Go up, and then start to check the harvest this time.

After the last space upgrade, Jianmu could produce an extra fifth fruit after receiving certain high-value sacrifices provided by Lawrence. This tentacle obviously belongs to this kind of high-value sacrifice.

Therefore, Lawrence saw five black flowers bloom on the Jianmu tree, and at the same time, a shadow of a person appeared in the glazed leaves embedded in the Jianmu tree trunk.

This person looked like a long-faced western young man, who looked no different from ordinary young people. If you want to say something special, you can only say that his eyes are different from normal people. At first glance, it seems a bit dull, but if you look closely, you will find that there is an indescribable strangeness in his eyes.

In the mirror, this man was wearing a black suit and sitting at the desk writing a book. From time to time, I dropped my pen and scratched my hair. Looked like he was in a breakdown.

As the picture changes, Lawrence can see through the wall behind him and the change in costume that his financial situation is getting worse.

Who is this person? After watching for a few minutes, Lawrence looked confused. We all know that writing a book is a dead end. So it's not easy to identify who this unlucky guy who is obviously getting poorer and poorer is. After all, in his impression, there are not many famous authors who were rich during their lifetime, and the poor ones who jingle in the car Bucket volume.

Fortunately, at the end of this short animation, some dark purple lines emerged at the bottom of the pattern. Then a string of characters was formed to explain the identity of this person: Howard Phillips Lovecraft [Howard Phillips Lovecraft]

Lovecraft—mmp, what I found this time is just a tentacle, there is no need to summon this person. Lawrence almost jumped up after finding out the memory about this person in his mind, because The man conjured up is a very special writer.

Since the last time he summoned Shao Yong and obtained Plum Blossoms, Lawrence knew that those ordinary things in his hometown might become extremely powerful after interacting with extraordinary power. Things that were only fantasies in the original world are likely to become reality in this world.

The problem is, this Lovecraft is the creator of the Cthulhu mythology. In normal mythology, the gods are often very tall, and at the same time take the image of a human or animal as their appearance and can interact with intelligent creatures. Or simply put, these gods belong to the existence that humans can communicate and understand.

But this is not the case with all the gods in Lovecraft's works. Those gods are completely chaotic and chaotic in appearance, such as a dark, chaotic shapeless mass, made up of a bunch of tentacles, flowing Huge chunks of flesh with mucus-filled mouths wrapped in black mist, or composed of countless sarcomas-like glowing spheres.

Intrinsically speaking, the gods in the Cthulhu mythology have no traditional good or evil. They have no sinister intentions, no clear hostility, or even malice. Human beings are like ants to them, and naturally they cannot understand them. And this position can breed the deepest fears in the human heart.

Sound powerful? But the problem is that Lawrence can feel that the power contained in the tentacles is not even as good as the godhead last time, and the exchange of the building wood space is strictly based on the principle of equivalent exchange.

So under such circumstances, if some evil talent is acquired, it is easy to become a public enemy directly, and then be beaten to death because of lack of strength.

This is why Lawrence is entangled. After all, the gods in the Cthulhu myth are powerful enough, but their characteristics are too bad.

It's all about building, I hope this time I can be given a talent that can be used. So at this time, Lawrence closed his eyes and prayed silently under the tree with his palms together, and then raised his head to look at the five flowers in the sky. black flowers.
