Chapter 499: 498.Fuck! A three-speed power rocket hammer? What kind of jackal black technology is this!!!!
Ouer still needs a bit of time to get well, even when walking in the swamp, he can’t recover his posture, after all, the greedy Mannis the Infinite gnawed off half of the tail of this unlucky snake in the sea of stars, even if Ninjiranka has the same snake characteristics as Ninjiranka, it’s not that easy to recover.

However, considering that unless Transylvania is pushed to the point of destruction by the jackals, needing Ouer to come out to carry the banner, or else the next probability of there will be no external forces to disturb its self-healing, so Murphy can confidently think that this wave belongs to the “future is promising”.

In his plan, the swamp serpent will be the “ballast” of the defenses of the filthy swamp, such a lynchpin must ensure that its battle condition is perfect.

As the serpent lord returned to the forbidden land with his newborn baby snake, he also conveyed his thanks to Murphy and intended to give him a “gift” in action.

Consider it as paying the “treatment fee”.

Legendary Giant Snake has its own intelligence, although it does not have to be very clever, but it can smell Murphy’s body belongs to the breath of the Endless One, which makes it think that Murphy in order to save it and that crazy bastard did some dangerous interactions before retrieving the Endless One’s venom for the configuration of the antidote.

For any sensible creature, such a “great favor” must be repaid.

Murphy didn’t refuse the favor.

Just like players always think that there must be rewards for doing quests, the vampire in order to complete this “save the giant snake” side quest did pay a lot, not to mention, just because of the relationship between the Endless One and the other star demigods have lowered the reputation of the cold or even hostile this is already a very scary “Payment” is already very terrible.

He also felt that he really needed to be “rewarded”.

Not only did he and Tris travel with him, but considering that Maxim had come, he also brought Maxim and Heru, the scout who would be covered in mud and water, along with him.

Although Heru did not have much to contribute, but he at least helped the giant snake to heal his wounds and moved his hands, so let’s consider him as a newcomer who was brought by the big brother to brush up his reputation.

Moreover, Heru is currently Transylvania’s most outstanding scout, after a long period of time sitting in the swamp, his mage tower is built enough to allow him to include the entire swamp in the psychic monitoring, the giant snake’s matter even if you do not say it can not be hidden from him, might as well give Heru now to give him a bottom.

With the competence and cunning that this young psychic master from the Tower of the Ring usually showed, he wouldn’t be unaware of the amount of trouble that would be brought about once the secret leaked out from his way.

The four of them followed the giant snake as they moved to fly towards the forbidden area of the swamp, Heru, the most rookie, didn’t have wings but he had picked up a fairly luxurious magic carpet from the ruins of the Warlock Tower and had his own flying vehicle of sorts.

As Orr approached the swamp sanctuary, the other six giant snakes that had been awakened sensed the scent of their companions.

They rushed from all parts of the forbidden land to show themselves, and seeing a legendary creature appear before his eyes, Heru’s jaw dropped in shock, and he hurriedly grabbed his arithmetic treasure pearl to record this rare scene.

“The legends are all true! There is a population of giant snakes living in the Filthy Swamp, and they already have a next generation! Gosh, this news will make the executives of the Tower of the Ring who seek to explore the mysteries of the world rejoice.”

Heru marveled, then added smugly:
“Yet they are not in a position to see this up close, for they are not welcome in Transylvania, and neither am I!”

“Look at you.”

Maxim whispered with a scowl beside him:

“Please behave decently and maintain your decorum as a commander of the People’s Army scouts! Lord Heru, you are now a military officer.”

“Oh, okay.”

Seeing General Maxim’s words, Heru immediately put away his posture of always being a bit of a bumpkin, and held his head up high with a dignified “I’m a super powerful Archmage” look.

Murphy and Tris didn’t care about the conversation between these two people, the Governor and the Grand Duke were concerned about the social structure of the giant snake colony, as expected, after the return of the oldest and largest Ool, all the other giant snakes obediently lowered their proud necks in front of him as a way to show their respect and obedience to Ool.

When they were dormant, Ouer had been patrolling this territory belonging to them in Area A of the forbidden zone, and had not let any dangerous guys enter it to disturb the snakes for more than a thousand years, which alone was enough to make the other snakes happy and obedient.

What’s more, the little Cavendina on Ole’s head is the first descendant born besides the seven snakes, and the baby snakes who look at everything with curiosity and wail towards their “uncles and aunts” don’t understand her significance to the species.

But while children don’t understand, adults can’t help but understand.

The six giant snakes surrounded Ole, hissing with joy, and like a family in a circle of legendary creatures, they took turns passing the baby Cavendina around on their heads, as if it were a ritual.

They then hissed a sort of call and request in the direction Murphy was hovering.

The snakes were organized in groups of two to form “families”, and all three families had thousand year old eggs waiting to hatch, and one of them had two eggs as “twins”.

Now that “His Excellency the Curator” can hatch the first baby snake, it means that the rest of the baby snakes will also be given a new life after a thousand years, a new life, uh, a snake life.

The significance of this to their already infinitely endangered species is beyond words.

“I would love to, my giant snake friends, but now is not the time.”

Murphy shook his head.

He wasn’t sure if Giant Snake would understand, but he explained anyway:

“War is coming!

The war between the humans and the jackals will most likely involve you as well, and choosing to hatch your descendants at this time is not a good choice, which means that you will spend a lot of your energy on defending your pups.

However, I promise you that as soon as the war shows signs of ending, I will immediately bring the hatching of the Millennium Eggs into the process.”

At this, the giant snakes were a bit disappointed but before the example of little Cavendina, they chose to believe in the curator’s promise and then took their baby snakes to familiarize themselves with the various environments throughout the swamp eco-region amidst the hissing of the mighty Orr.

Ole himself took Murphy and his party in another direction.

It swam through the muddy water with great speed, and it took less than ten minutes to arrive at the end of the swamp forbidden zone under the mountains extending out from the Dark Mountain Range, which was also the end of the Filthy Swamp, and in order to reach it, one would need to pass through the entire Zone A.

But this was something that was almost impossible to do in times past, so it could be concluded that Murphy and the others were the first outsiders to enter this area after the Fourth Black Plague.

“Ow!”

Ouer’s big flexible head pointed towards the direction under the mountain which was covered by the mist, it hissed as if to say “the thing of thanks is there”, then it didn’t stay for much as if it was disgusted with what was there, and lowered its head to express its thanks to Murphy and Tris again, then turned around and disappeared in the surrounding swampy mist with a twinkling sound.

It can be seen that the giant snake is very resistant to the things that exist here, it is not even willing to stay here too much.

This in turn made Murphy’s curiosity pull full.

He and Tris and Maxim immediately traveled through the mist to reach the bottom of the mountain, with Heru following close behind, and they saw a large hidden cave that didn’t exactly look like it was naturally formed, and had obvious signs of having been excavated later in life.

When Maxim stepped into the cave with the black blade in his hand, he quickly saw the “previous owner” of the cave.

“It’s the Jackal! Master Murphy.”

Maxim drew his black blade and warned solemnly:

“And they are all elite Jackals from the Dark Mountains, quite numerous but all dead.”

“This is the Hunting Forbidden Legion of the King of Biting Bones, no doubt about it.”

When Tris saw those jackals lying around in the cave who had long since returned to the underworld in the passage of time, she immediately made a judgment, probably because the distinctive “clan armor” on these jackals proved their identity.

Although it wasn’t as outrageous as everyone wearing plate armor, each of these jackals in front of her had a very “exaggerated” armament, and they were unified in their style, which was obviously not something that an ordinary jackal warlord could have.

“The number is around 500, which is consistent with the records of the Fourth Black Plague.”

Heru threw out a special scrying technique, throwing a ball of unstable psychic energy deep into the cave, and then through the shockwaves generated by the psychic energy burst, he outlined the terrain of the entire cave and some obvious features inside by the principle of “echo”.

While adjusting the frequency of the echo detection, he said to the three people around him:
“In the records of the Tower of the Ring, back then, the clan of the King of Bones was bombarded by the Sun Ship of the Sanghai Empire from the sky, and it lost its most elite core strength, but there was still a group of powerful hunting guards that escorted the King of Bones out of the battlefield surrounded by the four directions.

They were chased all the way into the Filthy Swamp and disappeared.

This is the final whereabouts of that group of hunting guards, and I’ve heard that the remains of the King of Bites also appeared on the battlefield in Plague Town, so it seems that all those outrageous rumors about ‘the King of Bites not being dead’ can finally come to an end.

But a new problem has arisen.

Why did these absolute elites among the Jackals die here incognito? They should have had enough strength to escape the giant snakes and return to the Dark Mountain Range.

There are no obvious fatal wounds on these corpses, which is enough to prove that they didn’t die in battle.”

“It seems that someone gave them an order, an order that could not be disobeyed, and these jackal warriors then died of old age just to fulfill the order.”

Murphy narrowed his eyes and spoke, turning his head to Heru:

“I guess they must be guarding something, can you see into the deepest part of the cave?”

“Just a moment, Lord Governor, I’ll adjust.”

Heru hurriedly threw out a second echo scout, this time deeper into the cavern, and after several minutes of waiting, a sweaty Heru reported:
“There is an enclosed space in the deepest part of the cave, your guess was correct, there should be something hidden there. But there is also strange spiritual energy coiled there, I guess it should be related to the truth of this cave. Perhaps these jackals just ‘seem’ dead!
Spare the time and life, but they are still guarding the place of their mission.”

“All the more reason for us to go in and take a look.” Murphy gave an order, and the three vampires immediately took to the air.

Maxim carried Heru in both hands and followed the two Vampire Venerable Lords as they flew towards the lowest part of the cavern, not touching anything they shouldn’t have along the way, and having Tris here was enough to make sure that those hidden organs wouldn’t be triggered.

In the deepest part of the cave, in an area dug out like an altar, Murphy saw a stone bed and a pile of things placed on the edge of the bed.

It was a full set of armor, two weapons, a heavy shield, and a leather pocket containing other weapons.

In the altar area, there was an excessively large wolf lying there, seemingly the last guardian, the bones of this wolf have also weathered, but it is not difficult to see that this thing is also definitely the “giant species” of its race.

“It is the mount and hunting companion of the King of Bones, who affectionately calls it ‘Benny’.”

Tris said softly:
“This guy is the king of the Dark Mountain Range’s Seat Wolves, the most trusted companion of the King of Biting Bones, and the fact that he left it here as well is enough to prove that what the King of Biting Bones left behind was by no means just his own weapons and armor, and that there are other things hidden here as well.

But it can’t be searched.

There is a ‘divine spell’ arranged here, it should come from the divinity of the Lord of the Hunt, it cannot be dispelled nor purified, once we touch the core of the divine spell, the dead in the entire cavern will probably be ‘resurrected’.

This level of divine magic has already departed from the degree to which jackals can summarize their knowledge by groping around haphazardly, if the King of Biting Bones was able to unleash such divine magic with the Lord of Hunting’s gift a hundred years ago, I can’t hardly imagine to what extent the Lord of Hunting’s divinity will swell a hundred years from now.

The worship and chanting of the jackals day in and day out has also given the Lord of the Hunt its first form, and the vibrations of subspace may actually complete the final molding of the Lord of the Hunt in this Black Plague.

When the Lord of the Hunt emitted its first roar in subspace, the Jackals would truly have a deity that belonged to them, which would undoubtedly raise the intensity of this Black Calamity to an even more brutal level once again.

Alas, one bad thing after another.”

“So as long as we don’t touch the exciters, we can take the rest, right?”

Murphy didn’t respond immediately as he carefully surveyed the altar deep in the cavern in front of him, frowning tightly as he observed the few weapons in front of him, and after a few seconds he quirked his head in question.

The Scarlet Witch would have already figured out the general principle of this divine art by now, and she nodded her head and said:

“It’s a spell similar to a death ritual, it’s not hard to understand in principle, but because of the tainted divinity trying to dismantle it requires a priest to come over. You can disarm those and I will alert you after the core of the divine spell appears.

But I think you’d better not get too greedy, the King of Biting Bones put his most precious armor and weapons here as an obvious bait to punish the greedy.

I’m guessing that only those it chooses will be able to get the information it left behind without triggering the divine magic punishment.”

“We should probably seal off this place permanently, master.”

Maxim said seriously:

“Whatever information the King of Biting Bones left behind, that shouldn’t be accessible to the current Jackals!”

“Good idea.”

Murphy had stepped in front of the huge flail and metal scepter, and with an odd expression he reached out and grasped the steel hunting scepter without turning his head:

“Or, we could make this a truly optional ‘Great Secret’!
I used to be unimpressed by what the King of Biting Bones left behind, but I suddenly realized after seeing it with my own eyes that I seem to have underestimated how rich and expensive a gift a barbarian king who nearly toppled a continent can leave to his descendants”

The vampire lord had to exert a lot of force to lift the hunting scepter of the King of Biting Bones in his hand.

But the real reason why he felt the heaviness of this thing was not because it was really heavy, but because this scepter that was written about in the history of the clans and named “Skull Shatterer” was very different from the barbarian scepter in Murphy’s imagination.

No!
It really is not barbaric at all, and from its appearance alone, it is even full of the “future technology style” that is familiar to Murphy and Tris.

The whole is rounded in the form of an iron rod, at the top there are four armor-breaking cones forming the attack part, the upper, middle and lower three different modules are combined together in an ingenious way, and there is almost no assembly port or remaining screw holes visible on the silver-gray exterior, and there is a nozzle at the top of the scepter that resembles a flamethrower.

Murphy didn’t know where this thing came from, but he was certain that it was definitely not something that could be hand rubbed together at the level of civilization of the Jackals.

The vampire lord relied on his “experience” in the land of creation to look for the handle of this steel scepter, and soon found a hidden sliding module that could be snapped, and the moment he snapped the module, the originally delicate scepter immediately moved, and the top layer of the armor-breaking cone popped out and spun up at an even speed in the rotation of the gears.

As Maxim and Heru watched dumbfounded, Murphy pushed the sliding template into the third mode, and the armor-breaking cone was incorporated into the body of the scepter again, popping out at the top of the mechanically linked structure into a hexagonal warhammer head, and behind the head was an exaggerated three-pronged nozzle micro-rocket booster!

“Fuck! Rocket-powered hammer! I knew it .”

Murphy bemoaned, and instead of energizing the rampaging contraption he activated item identification, and seconds later, the specific information of the contraption popped up in front of Murphy’s eyes:

Item Description:

[The King of Bone Biters has never mentioned to others the process of acquiring his ‘Skull Shredder’, it has always referred to it as a supreme gift from the Lord of the Hunt, and many Jackals believe that the Skull Shredder represents a gift from the gods.

Although this was not the case, it didn’t stop the ‘Skull Shatterer’ from stirring up bloodshed every time it made its appearance on the continent one hundred and ten years ago.

The weapon’s kill list currently includes the Brass Dwarf King of the Hills, the Forest Elf Ranger General, as well as the Shadow Elf Matron and Vampire Lord, so perhaps you could try to write more legends with it?”]

“Alas, the shape of this thing doesn’t suit my temperament.”

Murphy shrugged and tossed the weapon in his hand to Maxim beside him as he said:
“A few of us have our work cut out for us today, the rest of the King of Biting Bones can’t be touched, but the armor and belongings of these corpses can be taken back. The warriors have taken Wolf’s Keep, they need awesome rewards, ah, I don’t need to rack my brain to come up with a new suit for them again after all.

You’re off to war Mark, I have nothing to give you, consider this my allowance for your services.

Also keep a low profile, I don’t have any gifts for Adele or Phymes, and the other things left behind by the King of Biting Bones really aren’t too good for them either.”

“Master! A supreme loyalty such as mine needs no reward”

“This is the legendary ‘Skull Shatterer’ . Just tell me if you want it or not.”

“Uh, yes! Why not? As the warriors brag in the taverns, when I hold the legend, I shall step into the legend, let’s use this battle to make the legend of the Skullcrusher light up again!”
