Chapter 296 The Leviathan Goes South
Under Ixchel's communication, Lu Chen and others visited the houses of the residents in the village.
"what is this?"
Lu Chen picked up a wooden sculpture placed on the table in the room. It has a very special image. It has a long pointed nose like that of Pinocchio in Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale after telling a lie. Long curved fangs stick out one after another. Knotted hoop.
He found that almost everyone has a wood carving like this enshrined in their homes.
"It looks kind of scary."
Lu Mingfei answered.
Ixchel nodded in agreement, "I think so too, but this is the god of rain, which represents a good harvest. Everyone thinks that the god of rain can bless the village with good weather. Although everyone is no longer farming, they still maintain this habit."
"I thought you would worship Izamna."
Zero looked at the wood carving and said.
The dragon-shaped Izamna is the head of the gods in Mayan mythology, and it is also the direct factor that the Secret Party first speculated that the Mayans were related to the dragon race, because the Mayans obviously had a prototype for their gods.
According to the secret party's speculation, Izamna should be a dragon king.
"Izamna? Granny Keya said that the gods are too high to care about the life and death of ordinary people. It is more practical for us to enshrine some of the lower gods."
Ixchel spread his hands, "As for Izamna's wood carvings, we also have them here. Grandma Keya has carved a lot of them, and they are all sold. Westerners like dragons very much. It feels like a town house when you put it home.”
"Then do you still hold sacrificial activities now?"
Lu Chen tentatively said.
"Sacrifice? Yes, Granny Keya presides over it every year. It's a tradition."
Ixchel felt that everyone looked a little serious, and explained: "It's not what you think, we all use chickens and ducks now."
Around the afternoon, everyone basically searched the village like a carpet, but no trace of the dragon was found.
At this moment, Lu Chen's cell phone rang, and it was actually the principal calling.
He walked out the door and connected to no one.
"How is the investigation of the Mayan village going?"
the principal asked.
"There is some progress. It turns out that the step-by-step investigation is so troublesome. I already want to clean up the place."
Lu Chen stretched and replied.
"Haha, in the past, the commissioner of the executive department investigated and let you solve the target, but this time the danger is too high, and ordinary people can't investigate."
Anger said, his voice became heavy again, "You can investigate for another day, if there is no result, the matter over there can be temporarily put on hold, and there is something that needs to be resolved by you."
Lu Chen raised his spirits: "What's the matter? Is there a Dragon King?"
At this time, Angers was staying with Schneider in the general command room of the executive department, looking at the 3D projected earth, which came from the sea near Greenland, and it was all red.
"There is something different in Greenland. Probably since yesterday, the local commissioner found that the temperature dropped by nearly 10 degrees in just [-] minutes, down to minus [-] degrees. The local people are afraid to go out. .”
Both Angers and Schneider had serious expressions on their faces.
"Elemental turbulence?"
Lu Chen now also knows some knowledge about the Dragon Clan.
"Well, something passed through that sea of ice, and all the seas where it passed were frozen. You must know that it is the end of summer, and now it has become colder than any previous winter. The cold spreads from the sea to the land. , to reduce the temperature in a large area, one can imagine what kind of extreme cold it is in the ice sea."
Anger sent the information to Lu Chen's mobile phone, "Let your mentor tell you, he should have more say."
"Is it the monster you have seen in the ice sea before, mentor?"
Lu Chen heard the voice and knew that the person on the other side of the communication line had changed.
"It should be, and this time we finally captured the true face of that guy, the god of death under the icy sea...it's actually a white whale."
Schneider's deep and hoarse voice trembled a little, he wasn't afraid, the old killer was excited.
"Whales? Dragons seem to be getting weirder."
Lu Chen complained, it's not that he has never seen a different kind of dragon, such as Hydera, but according to the description of the instructor and the principal, that guy may be a first-generation dragon, and the first-generation dragons he has seen are all quite serious.
"The shape of the dragon clan is also related to their own will. We don't know why it is a whale, but the tenured professors have analyzed the history of the dragon clan, and combined with the information you got in the Jinlunga corridor last time, they think that he may be a myth. The Leviathan in the game can affect the environment on such a large scale, it is definitely the power of the first generation."
Schneider explained.
And Lu Chen looked at the information sent, it shows that marine life is also migrating on a large scale, making way for Supreme's travel.
"Can you locate him now?"
He is more interested in cutting down the first-generation species than leading the freshmen in activities, but he finds it a bit troublesome for the targets in the sea, and he can't do it well.
"Currently, it has only been photographed accidentally in a Russian military satellite, and there is no trace at other times. It must have dived very deep, and technology cannot accurately track it."
Schneider paused, "But we can judge its approximate location through the trajectory of the elemental turbulence. At present, it is inferred that he is heading southwest."
Lu Chen thought for a while, "Can you find a way to bring Leviathan to land to fight?"
"This cannot be guaranteed, but the academy is discussing countermeasures to try to create a good battlefield environment for you."
Schneider has asked the tenured professors and the students above A level in the academy to gather for meetings separately, in order to come up with reasonable countermeasures.
Opponents in the sea are very troublesome. Human beings can go to space, but they have not been able to explore the deepest part of the sea. If Leviathan avoids the battle and dives into the deep sea, human beings will have nothing to do with him.
We can't let Lu Chen go down in the submarine again. Even if Lu Chen can withstand the water pressure, his strength in the deep sea is not one in ten.
"I see, I will end things here as soon as possible."
After Lu Chen replied, he cut off the communication, and their team might be able to test the results of the special training.
It was another day of investigation. After everyone gathered in the evening, Lu Chen felt that if there was no abnormality tonight, he would ask the executive department to drive away the Mayans here, and then he would wash the ground. Regardless of whether there was any result, he would To snipe Leviathan.
Lu Chen didn't go out at night, and sometimes he wondered if he had scared the dragons.
At about two o'clock in the middle of the night, Lu Mingfei was suddenly woken up.
He rubbed his eyes in a daze, and sat up, only to find that everyone in the room was already awake, and Senior Brother Lu was standing by the window, looking out.
Lu Chen looked at the scene outside the window, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up, and finally let him wait.
At this time, the village was still eerily quiet, only the lit candlesticks were flickering, and the night wind was whistling, like a ghost whispering.
The candles on both sides of the narrow road are not orange, but a strange blue. The villagers walked quietly on the road, reminiscent of the ancient road of Huangquan.
Lu Chen led the freshmen out of the door, carefully joined the girls, and observed the villagers from the shadows.
It seems to be in a state of sleepwalking, their eyes are dull, and they don't know what they are doing.
"Godzilla, I seem to hear singing."
Erika said in a low voice.
"singing?"
Lu Chen was a little puzzled, and the other students were also at a loss. They didn't hear any singing.
"What exactly is the sound?"
Lu Chen asked, he knew that Huiliyi's dragon blood was much higher than his own, and he could hear some voices that ordinary people couldn't hear.
"It's ugly, sharp, eerie, and kind of scary."
Erika thought about it, and concluded that if she encountered this situation alone, she would definitely feel a little scared, but at this time everyone was by her side, including Godzilla.
"Look at it."
As Lu Chen said, he walked into the road without any scruples, passing each and every one of the villagers, carefully examining their physical condition.
The breathing is steady, as if falling asleep, but when you look closely, everyone has a peaceful smile on their faces.
There is nothing wrong with the smile itself, it is like a person having a sweet dream, but in such a weird and gloomy environment, it looks a little scary.
Lu Chen stretched out his hand and shook a villager, but he didn't respond. He stopped in front of him, and the opponent bumped into him again and again like a broken robot.
Other freshmen also walked into the road to check the situation of the villagers.
"It should be the effect of some kind of speech spirit, such as a nightmare, but the source of the speech spirit cannot be sensed."
After looking around, Zero returned to Lu Chen to report.
Erika glanced at the villagers on the road, wondering, "Where's Ixchel?"
a few minutes ago……
In the dim room, the girl turned over and kicked her legs a little irritably. She felt something pushing herself.
The thing seemed to be dislodged, and she had a moment of peace, but then something arched her arm, her face again.
"Toot... don't make trouble."
Ixchel muttered.
"Meow~meow~"
Dudu screamed a little anxiously, seeing that the master was still asleep, he made a trick and bit the girl's arm lightly.
"what--"
Ixchel sat up screaming, "Dudu, what are you doing, why are you biting me?"
"Meow, meow~"
Dudu mouthed Ixchel's underwear and pulled it down. She didn't have any spare money to buy such things as beautiful pajamas and nightdresses.
"Go, go, little pervert."
Ixchel yawned, hugged Dudu aside, and said in a daze, "Dudu, your mouth stinks."
Dudu rolled anxiously on the bed, jumped onto the window sill, and called back to Ixchel twice.
Ixchel finally regained consciousness, a little confused, "What's going on outside?"
Dudu is usually very sensible at night, and never affects his rest. Could it be that thieves broke into the village?
She got up and got out of bed, walked carefully to the window, opened the gap in the curtain, took a look outside, and was stunned for a moment.
What are you guys doing! ?
Do you not sleep in the middle of the night and march together?
No, everyone walks in a strange posture, as if they are sleepwalking.
As if sensing the girl's gaze, a villager suddenly turned his head and looked directly at Ixchel.
His pace didn't stop, and as the angle changed, his head turned more than ninety degrees, the flesh on his neck seemed to be twisting, and there was a strange glint in his eyes.
Ixchel was so frightened that she covered her mouth, she knew that person, it was Uncle Gu Ge, what happened to him?
crunch - crunch -
Suddenly Ixchel heard the creaking sound from the beams again, as if some heavy object was crawling on the wooden house, or...in her room, hanging from the ceiling?
She hugged Dudu tightly, trembling all over, leaned against the corner of the wall, and boldly glanced up.
"what--"
She screamed, and there was an upside-down black figure on the beam, which seemed to be still dripping blood, and there was a rancid smell in the air.
She finally realized that it wasn't Dudu's stinky mouth just now, but a monster hanging upside down in her room.
The monster seemed to be rotten all over, like a rotting corpse soaked in seawater for several months, the skin on its face was gradually falling off, its eyes were protruding, and they turned around, then stopped suddenly, staring at him.
A mouth that seemed to be bonded opened, and Ixchel could hear the sound of carrion tearing, the corners of the mouth were cracked all the way to the ears, and there were pieces of meat hanging between the teeth, showing a "smile"
In an instant, Ixchel connected the events of the past two days. She thought of those strange archaeological students who often asked herself if there was anything wrong in the village.
Now the weird thing appeared in front of her eyes, but she was so afraid that she couldn't even move her feet.
She let go, "Doo... run."
The girl's voice was crying, obviously she might have seen something frightening, but she was also trembling with fright.
boom--
The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground sounded, and the rotting corpse fell to the ground and staggered towards Ixchel, blocking the girl's escape route.
Ixchel was terrified, but kicked Toot, why didn't the stupid cat run away.
However, Dudu stood beside Ixchel, just meowing and rubbing Ixchel's leg, as if he was not afraid at all, as if he didn't see the carrion walking towards them.
"boom--"
The wooden walls shattered, and sawdust flew in the bedroom. Ixchel closed his eyes in fright.
"Ixchel?"
After waiting for a few seconds, there was no death, but she heard a familiar voice. She opened her eyes and saw the other person clearly under the dim light of the moonlight night. It was Mr. Lu.
Looking at the room again, there were no rotting corpses, only the messy pieces of wood, and there was no smell of rotting flesh in the air.
"what's your name?"
Lu Chen was a little confused. Just now when Erika mentioned Ixchel, he thought of coming over to take a look. As soon as he walked to the door, he heard Ixchel screaming in horror.
"Lu, Lu, Mr. Lu, there was a monster here just now."
Ixchel walked quickly to Lu Chen's side, feeling a little safe, and pointed to the beam.
"monster?"
Lu Chen looked up at the roof, there was nothing, and there were no traces of fighting in the room, or the smell of other creatures.
"Really, it was there just now. It looks like a corpse soaked in sea water. It can move. If you don't believe me, look at my bed sheet..."
As Ixchel said, he was stunned, obviously just now he saw rotten flesh and blood dripping on it, but when she looked at it now, there was nothing but sawdust.
