PDLP Chapter 153 Eavesdropping
Chapter 153 Eavesdropping
"What...what remains?!"
After hearing the conversation, Shihui even thought that his ears were not good and he almost spit out the words.
Although I don’t know what the remains of the Outer Gods they mentioned look like, they are definitely related to the Old Ones.
First there was the strange crystal, then the remains of the Outer God. The simultaneous appearance of this series of information caused Shihui's brain to crash. She considered herself to be a single-processor, and once there were too many things, things would get messed up.
"Then you see..."
The two of them gradually walked away, and the sounds they could hear became quieter and quieter.
Shi Hui immediately became anxious, frowning and cursing in his heart: "Damn it, they're so far away that I can't hear them anymore. Is there any way I can eavesdrop?!"
Realizing that he was becoming impatient, Shi Hui immediately cancelled his invisibility and kept breathing to allow his brain to think properly.
She also thought about all the props she could use.
A man-eating book
The broken fruit that has never been given away
A fortifying agent comparable to a septic tank
There is also a broken revolver shaped like a Gatling gun.
Fortunately, this black shoulder bag has enough space, otherwise I would have to carry a sack of things.
Lime leaned weakly against the stone wall, and couldn't help sighing in his heart: "I'm almost like a rag collector."
"Let me see what's left... yes!"
Soon she found the item that had been used by the enemy in her bag.
Lime adjusts its magic power to the minimum, which can not only reduce the consumption of lifespan, but also prevent the props from being unable to withstand the magic power and breaking.
'Come out, little one!'
Following the thought, a black and golden bug smaller than a grain of rice crawled out of her waist bag. It extended its small wings and quickly chased after the two people.
Shihui originally kept this strange little thing as a collection, but he never thought it would be of such use today.
The big one put it close to his ear and listened carefully to the sound.
……
In the crystal tunnel, Momo was leisurely communicating with the monster beside him. It seemed to be a grotesque creature that was a combination of a snake and a human. Its lower body, which was half leg and half tail, was extremely disgusting, and its head was completely snake-like and a little weird.
The snake man had no hair, but had dense fangs. He grinned and stared at Momo: "I think this request is not a problem for a being like you, right?"
At this moment, an imperceptible faint breath quickly approached Momo. Due to the first operation, the little bug flew crookedly, and finally the little beetle stuck to the shoulder of the black armor.
"Hmm?... Well, ahem, let me think about it!"
Momo seemed to notice something and tilted his head slightly but then straightened it back immediately.
The snake man keenly noticed the change in the other party's tone and pretended to ask, "Do you have any other opinions? I think we can raise the price, for example..."
“For example… these mined magic crystals?” Momo turned his helmet to look at it.
The snake man's pupils narrowed into needles, and he was obviously shocked. He couldn't help but complain in his heart that he had said he was not interested before, but now he wanted to do it again.
It spit out its tongue, which hadn't completely split open. "These magic crystals are all top-quality products that can be used to make magic scrolls. How about I give you just ten crystals? After all, it's very difficult to mine and preserve the magic power of these things, and you're so powerful that you don't seem to need any magic crystals at all..."
There was a hint of doubt and confusion in its tone. After its pupils changed, it changed the subject and continued with a smile:
"We are only here to help mortals gain extraordinary powers. Everything comes at a price, right? And we can help them avoid paying the price!
Can you imagine what would happen if these magic crystals storing power appeared on the market? I’m afraid the entire underground dynasty would go crazy!!!”
Every word it spoke was about difficulty and preciousness, in an attempt to impress the other party, but because the other party's face was covered by a black helmet, nothing could be seen through the dark slits of its eyes.
This made it difficult for the company, which has always been proud of its negotiation.
Momo shrugged and said in a low voice: "Strength is innate and destined, and those who try to obtain power that does not belong to them are destined to pay the price!"
"Not to mention those pagans who have abandoned God. Even if the world collapses, I will kill them all."
The snake man turned his head and made a clicking sound, and said sarcastically:
"Mr. Momo has a deep hatred for those pagans. After all, even I find their belief in such a bizarre deity insane..."
"But in this world that is gradually going crazy and collapsing, who can remain mad? Who can remain sane? How long can you keep it?"
Shihui, who was hiding in the crevice of the rock, agreed with what Momo said. After all, she was able to bring Ou Lei and her group back from death, and the life she gave was enough for her to live peacefully for more than a hundred years.
However, these magic crystals can allow ordinary people to gain extraordinary powers so easily. It is hard to imagine how crazy it will be at that time.
After all, for Ole, there are only two paths to choose from: warrior or astrologer. As for how far you can go, it all depends on your talent.
She couldn't help but think to herself, 'No wonder I can feel a certain connection with these crystals. Although it is very weak, it can connect with me.'
At the same time, he also recalled the invisibility scroll used by the knight trapped in the basement. Although it was of a crude level, it was indeed effective.
Shime immediately reflected on herself: "I was wondering if there were many witches in this world, but judging by the ghostly looks those people gave me at first, I'm afraid the profession of witch is very dangerous in this day and age..."
Just as Shime was still immersed in her own thoughts, Momo's voice interrupted her again.
Momo seemed to be giving a warning but his tone was not serious: "And the magic crystal... magic crystal, you are now using super high temperature to barely ensure that the power will not be lost, but if the uncontrolled power explodes, I am afraid there will be no living things within a hundred miles..."
Perhaps it was his heroic and righteous nature that made him unable to help but remind the other party of the risks one after another.
"Don't bother with that, Your Highness Momo. After all, benefits often come with risks. If you don't even have this little courage, I wouldn't be here to trade with you!"
The expression on the snake man's face never changed from beginning to end. It seemed that Momo's warning fell on deaf ears to it.
Seeing this, Momo was too lazy to talk nonsense with it and said bluntly: "I need that egg now, and we can trade it immediately. As for the transaction location, how about you decide it?"
Giving the right of choice to the owner of the chassis is both a respect and a trust in the other party.
The snake man bent down as if flattered, and said solemnly: "It is an honor for me, Naga-Milaishuoga, to be trusted by the legendary dark hero Momo!"
The Naga looked around at the natural and strange crystal cave, and its snake eyes were filled with thoughts. It smiled:
"This place is not a good place for trading. How about we go outside, right at the entrance of the mine? After all, this place is really... too out of the way. I will immediately order my men to bring the eggs, and then you can leave with confidence!"
"Well, that's great. We are at the entrance of the mine." Momo's tone was still calm, but the last three words were deliberately bolded.
The smile on the lime's face in the crevice suddenly froze. It turned out that he had been discovered a long time ago, but the other party had deliberately let him hear this information.
She also pinched her chin, thinking about the meaning of the other party's last three words, and muttered in her heart: "...This guy, it seems like he wants me to muddy the waters..."
For some reason, Shihui had an inexplicable confidence in making trouble, but she was not a naive person and had her own thoughts in mind.
"The problem isn't that I messed up the deal, but the other party's revenge and pursuit. I originally ordered Oulena and the others to ambush at the No. 6 railway station, which might have harmed them..."
Thinking of this, Shine couldn't help but hesitate. On one side was the request of the Dark Hero, and on the other side was the safety of her companions, but her eyes became firm the next moment.
"Even if Momo dies, we can't let anything happen to Oulaina and the others!"
At the same time, she also looked through the general skill panel, trying to find the most perfect combination. The skill at the bottom caught her eye.
"I...cough cough cough, I almost forgot about this skill!"
Perhaps because she had been stuck in this confined crevice for too long, Shi Hui felt that breathing was becoming increasingly difficult. However, in order not to miss Momo's deal, she chose to activate the Phantom Shift and teleport out.
The miners who were working hard at the bottom looked up, their faces full of confusion.
"Where does the cool breeze come from underground?"
"Could it be that it was dug through from above?"
"Who cares? Let's get to work!"
……
Outside the mine...
Momo was still riding the tall and mighty black warhorse. The black armor covering his neck and abdomen looked very strange under the bloody moonlight.
The Naga held a mysterious fiery red egg in its inhumanly slender arms.
"If the item is confirmed, then hand it over, Master Momo!"
"Um"
Momo lifted the blood-red cloak on his back and took out a strange eyeball from it. The moment this thing appeared, everyone felt dizzy and suffocated, and felt that a powerful thought wanted to penetrate into their minds.
I even felt that the space around me began to distort, and strange sounds and knowledge flashed by like fragments.
Naga's face revealed a look of madness, and he couldn't help but murmur: "This is... the last piece of the puzzle!"
Looking at the other person's crazy look, Momo held the wreckage tighter. He was anxious and waiting.
"I hope the princess can understand what I mean. Hurry up, hurry up!"
"Uh-huh!!!"
Just as the two were about to hand over, a silver light instantly passed between them, as fast as lightning, stirring up astonishing gusts of wind and dust.
Naga looked at his empty arms, bewildered: "What the hell just passed by?!"
