The Evil God of Hogwarts - Chapter 398 Things that invade dreams
Just as Xing Ze expected, the screams of the two demons attracted other creatures in the lair. The first ones to come were the group of ape-like monsters.
Xing Ze originally thought that they would regard the corpse as food, but they seemed to be full of fear of monsters and ghosts. They only circled the corpse for a while and then continued running deeper.
After these little monsters left, there was a sound of sneaky footsteps, and the air around the corpses fluctuated slightly. Xing Ze knew that it was another demon, but he was not waiting for this, but for what came after that demon.
It was a snake man, a wise snake man to be precise. During the conversation with Scia Reese, he used his excellent dark vision to see some snake people hiding in the dark. They obviously did not have much intelligence, and their behaviors were more like ordinary beasts.
As their leader said, a strong body is always available, but a smart mind is not so easy. The snake-man vomited a message and squatted down to inspect the body, but it didn’t take long before it stood up cautiously.
The time cannot be delayed for too long. Xing Ze understands that the chameleon spell can allow them to blend into the environment, but it cannot cover up their body temperature. The snake people’s thermal sensing system is quite developed, which is their most common method to find enemies in the dark.
Before he was exposed, Xing Ze rushed out as quickly as possible. Behind him, the eldest lady tacitly threw a dazzling light ball.
The demon protecting the snake man was scratched by the light and temporarily lost its threat. Xing Ze sprinted very fast and arrived in front of the snake man in just one breath.
Blue Beak turned into a sharp blade and struck out. Although the snake man was also disturbed by the bright light, he managed to avoid Xing Ze’s sneak attack with his dexterous body and fighting instinct.
It spun around quickly, opened its mouth and spit out a burst of poisonous mist. The mist suddenly filled the air around it, and the poor demon struggled in the poisonous mist.
However, it obviously didn’t expect that the other party didn’t care about the poisonous gas at all, but continued to charge. The snake man was slightly stunned. Its vision returned to normal, and it could see its enemy clearly through the light.
But that’s all. The deadly Death passed through the thick fog, and the sharp blade pierced its abdomen. The opponent’s other hand pressed on its face, and black particles flew from its mouth, nose and ears crazily. Influx.
Xing Ze needs an intelligent creature who knows this place well, so that he can read the other party’s memory for his own use without wandering around here.
The snake man kept struggling, and its consciousness violently resisted Blue Beak. This was the first time Xing Ze invaded the brain of a dream creature. Compared to humans and wizards, dream pollution naturally invaded his brain unstoppably.
Various fragments flashed before his eyes, including his parents, childhood memories, painful past, and even the warmth of him lying in his mother’s arms as a baby.
Xing Ze gradually began to sink and get lost in the past. Until that voice rang in my ears.
“Xing Ze! No matter what you are doing, hurry up! We don’t have time!”
Ai Li’s voice was like a heavy hammer, instantly waking up Xing Ze who was immersed in illusion. He regained his consciousness and threw away the snake man’s body. The poor guy’s brain was completely burned out and there was no hope of survival.
Xing Ze took a deep breath, then turned around and walked quickly towards Ellie and said, “Follow me, I know the way.”
The eldest lady didn’t ask any more questions, she just waved her wand to cast a spell. The passage in front of them shook, and with several loud noises, falling stalactites and fallen stalagmites completely blocked the road.
“This should be able to block them for a while.” Ai Li followed Xing Ze and said.
Those unintelligent snake people are rushing here. Xing Ze can hear the sound of them crawling on the ground, walls, and ceilings. The noise made by the two of them has put the entire lair on alert.
“We are going to Scia Reese’s laboratory. There is what I am looking for there.” Xing Ze explained.
The eldest lady quickened her pace and said, “Let’s go then. I hope there won’t be too many surprises on the way.”
“Hey, wait.” Xing Ze pulled Ellie, “If… if something unexpected happens, just use Apparition and leave me alone.”
Something flashed in Ellie’s eyes. She shook off Xing Ze’s hand and said, “You’d better pay more attention to yourself. Just don’t hold me back.”
Xing Ze nodded apologetically, letting Blue Beak invade the Snake People was a very risky move, and he was taking a big gamble.
Although we almost died together, we still got a lot of useful information. He was lucky that the snake-man was not a complete snake-man, it was transformed from a human.
Xing Ze was also quite surprised when he got this information. He now finally fully understands why the snake people have such superb biotechnology but still live in the sewers of Liverpool.
They have lost the most important thing – wisdom. Yes, the key to this population’s survival is their intelligence and technology.
The Snake Man’s technology is certainly powerful, but many technologies have become a pile of waste after losing the necessary conditions and operators.
According to the information obtained, Scia Reese is the only one in the entire lair who can manipulate and use existing technology, but even it needs to find the necessary snake-man holy artifacts before it can use the lost technology again.
Technology is the only way for the snake people to resist the curse of their gods. These snake people from Youss Fortress betrayed their original god, the snake god Igg, and were cursed by the snake god.
The curse will cause them to gradually degenerate and eventually become just like ordinary beasts. This is simply a disaster for a creature like the Snake Man, which attaches great importance to wisdom.
Although the snakemen of Youss got a way to resist the curse from their new god, the price they paid was quite heavy, which indirectly caused them to slowly weaken in the subsequent natural disasters and wars.
As Xing Ze walked forward, he told the eldest lady the information he had obtained. They use the chameleon spell to escape the overwhelming numbers of ape-like creatures.
These ugly and savage creatures are actually degenerated humans. Their ancestors are the black slaves and overseers. Long-term inbreeding and the deliberate modification of the snake people have made these creatures look like this.
It can be said that Scia Reese relied on experiments on these humans to invent the human assimilation serum. This strange serum can transform humans into snake-men, or half-snake men to be precise.
“Is that Snake you just killed Frank? That squib detective Frank?”
“Yes, Scia Reese wants to use the serum to assimilate humans to make up for the snake people’s mental degradation. It needs assistants and managers, not a group of similar people who only know how to kill.”
Ai Li saw Xing Ze’s steps gradually slowing down. She swallowed the question on her lips and looked at the suddenly bright future.
Looking at the yellow translucent cocoons hanging at the top, the eldest lady couldn’t help but guess: “Let me guess, this is the hibernation room of those snake people.”
