Looking directly at the ancient gods for a whole year

"So... could it be the underworld they destroyed?"

It turned out that expert Fu's judgment was correct. After leaving that special residence, the two of them captured the centipede again without much effort.

It doesn't enter every door, but its "sense of smell" is obviously not that accurate, so its route of action can still be described as circuitous.

While seeing the figure in the distance and renewing their past relationship, Lisa, who had been silent all the way, also continued the topic of the underworld.

"It's hard to say. You should be able to feel that although this thing is stronger than that bat, it still doesn't have any divinity."

However, Fu Qian shook his head at the possibility she raised and did not make any rash judgment.

"In fact, up to now, no one of its kind with divinity has been seen."

"So it seems difficult for them to have any impact on this abode of the dead, not to mention that from the perspective of power, there is a vague similarity between the two."

Fu Qian’s meaning was very simple, these guys were not at their full level.

"But you said before that there might be a corpse of a god outside. Could it be Him? And these things are just products of corruption?"

Lisa obviously had no objection to the situation mentioned by Fu Qian.

However, perhaps because of the special experience she summarized, she remembered the process of the last scientific expedition very clearly.

"It's hard to say, although it does sound much more reasonable."

Unfortunately, Fu Qian’s answer to her evolutionary hypothesis remained the same.

"But this way, the situation seems a bit weird—"

Fu Qian thought about it and came up with a tongue twister-like sentence.

"A god makes the land of death die, and dies himself at the same time."

……

Although it does not seem completely impossible, Fu Qian's description brings a vivid sense of absurdity.

Lisa was speechless for a moment and refrained from commenting.

"But there is actually a contradiction in the situation we just mentioned. Did you notice it?"

Unfortunately, Professor Fu did not seem to be prepared to give her a chance to remain silent. Seeing that she did not say anything, he directly tested her the next moment.

The contradictions...

This scientific expedition undoubtedly posed a huge test on the brain, but Lisa did not mind it and immediately put all her energy into thinking.

"The corpse of a god, but the products of corruption don't even have any divinity?"

And she did not disappoint her expectations and soon reaped the rewards.

"Yeah, isn't that weird?"

Fu Qianmiao announced that his guess was correct and even looked relieved.

"The corpse was indeed my first impression, and it is still the same now. But this exaggerated scene, with no trace of divinity left inside, seems a little abnormal to be honest."

"I think this is also one of the reasons used by Linghui's people to deny Cast's corpse argument."

While the two were talking, the target being tracked had already entered behind another door.

Just when Lisa subconsciously slowed down her pace and wanted to wait for a while, Fu Qian abnormally gestured for her to go forward.

"That's true, so what do you think is the reason for this contrast?"

Although it was strange, Lisa was attracted by the question and did as she was told without any objection, while continuing to ask.

"Hard to say."

Unfortunately, Fu Qian used the same answer for the third time.

"But discovering the problem itself is a reward. In the subsequent exploration, we can try to use it to find the answer."

……

"Ok."

Although it was an admonishing gesture, it was really impeccable. Lisa sighed, stood still and did not ask any further questions.

On the one hand, it was because they had arrived at the target's foraging entrance, and on the other hand—

Not far away there is another stone pillar, and a stone sculpture with a slightly different shape on the top.

"I quickly rush into its range and deal with it?" Obviously not so naive as to hope that this was just a statue. Lisa took the initiative to confirm the action plan with Fu Qian.

It even seemed to her that this might be the reason why the other party was following her so closely all of a sudden - to deal with the hidden dangers and avoid being disturbed when tracking her later.

Her idea was very simple. She would rush to the nearby target and kill it instantly, not giving the thing a chance to absorb its vitality and launch a difficult attack.

“Do you have any more in stock?”

Fu Qian's reaction was noncommittal.

He remembered clearly that Professor Lisa mentioned that the "fangs" recovered very slowly.

"……Have."

It's a pity that the person involved didn't seem to appreciate the concern. He replied with a single word in a somewhat stiff tone, while being ready to strike back.

"But not this time."

It's a pity that someone was quicker than her.

Before he finished speaking, Professor Fu, the special guest of this scientific expedition, was already standing under the stone pillar.

  click!

In the silence, the breaking sound is so crisp.

As Lisa stared with eyes wide open, Fu Qian did not greet the gargoyle on the top. Instead, he stretched out an arm and broke the stone pillar at the root.

What does this guy want to do?

It is domineering, but it doesn't affect the bunch of question marks exploding on Lisa's head.

Of course, she was not tortured by any more doubts, because the latter had already raised the stone pillar in his hand like a javelin the next moment, and the direction the gargoyle on the top was facing was exactly the door.

Could this guy be——

Boom!

Her thoughts were abruptly interrupted by a loud noise, and Lisa watched helplessly as the stone pillar pierced through the door, the wall, and everything in its path.

……

"I have no problem with killing it now, but aren't you making too much noise?"

The hidden danger was eliminated in the blink of an eye. Lisa quickly followed and looked at the horrible hole next to her with helplessness in her tone.

This guy is indeed a man who would make a big noise if he didn't take action.

Even if that blow crushed the target directly, it is hard to imagine that there is only this one wandering down there.

It's no surprise that this kind of earthquake-like movement would attract something.

"Is that guy dead? I don't think I saw any trace."

Of course, she didn't expect Professor Fu to admit his mistake, so the next moment she looked towards the hole.

"No."

Fu Qian gave the conclusion instantly.

"Missed?"

A hint of suspicion appeared on Lisa's face, and she obviously didn't believe it.

"Missed."

Fu Qian, however, was calm.

It’s really...

Before Lisa could say anything, a bunch of reed-like claws appeared in her field of vision and floated out silently from behind a wall.

There is no doubt that it was the centipede that we had been chasing.

And at a glance it can almost be confirmed that the previous attack did not cause any damage to it.

  on purpose?

After realizing what was happening, Lisa looked at Fu Qian in confusion, only to find that the latter had actually stood directly in front of the cave entrance.

Behind the wall, a headless body stretched out a part of its body with thin claws floating below it and aimed at him immediately.

A green torrent, mixed with the sound of souls wailing, instantly filled the field of vision. (End of this chapter)
