Chapter 394: Inheritance
This is a large western-style banquet, with junk food from various worlds placed on the long dining table.
Among them, there is a kind of strange bone that is extremely delicious. After being cracked open, the marrow is eaten, which has won the praise of everyone.
"It is said that these bones come from a place called Giant Bone Mountain, where a large number of bones of various giant and strange creatures and rotten leaves of vegetable plants are spewed out every day. Most of these garbage have one characteristic, that is, they are extremely delicious and can be eaten without cooking. They are natural delicacies, but it is also one of the most dangerous places in the garbage world, where dangerous mutant creatures gather together. This time I am lucky."
Tie Xin explained while eating with a greasy face.
"Why do I feel that it sounds like something from the food hunter?"
Boss Xiao looked at the big bone stick that was pried open in his hand, and always felt that there was a lot of saliva on it.
Banquet scene.
Men and women from various cities walked around the banquet holding sour wine brewed with hundreds of unknown liquids, exchanging experiences of picking up garbage and interesting things in the garbage world, and occasionally facilitating a clever friend transaction.
Boss Xiao, who was in the limelight, naturally became the target of many forces. Forces who wanted to get to know him came one after another, and some people wanted to buy special products.
Putting aside Boss Xiao's personal strength, Wanjie City does have a lot of good things.
"Mr. Xiao Yang, thank you for saving me from the female corpse. My name is Dai Shan. Can you tell me where you live?"
The Latin American big-breasted girl from Transformation City took the initiative to come to the door, suggesting that the two sides could complete a transaction of several hundred million yuan, but unfortunately Boss Xiao euphemistically said that he had an appointment tonight.
"Boss Xiao's competition today really opened our eyes, and there are those auction items in Wanjie City. Maybe we have the possibility of further cooperation..."
Madam Hua from Pea City came over with a sour wine glass. Next to her was a half-century-old man, who had peeped at Boss Xiao at the auction.
"It's just a little trick. This senior is..."
Xiao Yang looked at the old man. Although his power was very restrained, it could be seen that he was a very powerful seventh-level psychic. The cane in his hand was full of vitality, as if it was a plant.
"Boss Xiao, allow me to introduce you to Master Muran from Wandou City."
"Boss Xiao is a young talent. Seeing is worse than hearing."
"Master Muran is too polite."
"..."
After a few pleasantries, the group got down to business.
The content was nothing more than some cooperative projects and some secrets of the garbage world. The old man was actually much older than he looked and knew a lot of strange stories in the world of scavengers.
"Boss Xiao, do you know why the Star Gate is called the Star Gate?"
"I'd like to hear more."
"More than a hundred years ago, when the black hole first appeared in Gaitaia, humans at that time thought it was a space-time wormhole. Passing through the interstellar gate once excited all of humanity. It is said that the Star Gate was established from the beginning to study black holes."
"You should also know what happened later. Black holes are not space wormholes at all. No matter whether it is supernatural power or scientific means, it is impossible to pass through black holes. On the contrary, endless garbage has brought about the destruction of the world."
Boss Xiao was stunned.
I didn't expect the origin of the Star Gate to be so long ago. I don't know how far they have studied black holes and whether they have realized anything.
"By the way, Master Muren, I heard that Pea City is the place with the most plant species in the garbage world, and it is very knowledgeable about plants from other worlds. I wonder if Pea City has collected some special bamboo plants. I just need some different kinds of bamboo species..."
The evolution of the green bamboo fairy insect requires the assimilation of different kinds of bamboo, and Boss Xiao placed his hopes on Pea City.
"Bamboo? Although I didn't pay special attention to it, I think there should be some special species. Since Boss Xiao needs it, I'll let Xiaohua help you find it."
"Thank you very much."
...
The banquet lasted for several hours, but Boss Xiao ran away in advance. He came to the Extraordinary Power Research Institute in Star City, where the Lord of Star City promised to give him a reward.
In order to thank Xiao Yang for solving the strange female corpse in the ghost domain and saving the reputation of Star Gate, Star Gate decided to give him what he wanted, saying that he could let Boss Xiao choose two undeciphered materials from the extraordinary documents collected by Star Gate and take them away.
"Boss Xiao, all the documents and materials that we collected from Star Gate that are suspected to be related to the use of extraordinary energy are here. Only a small part of them have been deciphered, and most of them are very obscure and difficult to understand." Old Yak took Xiao Yang to a warehouse. Inside were rows of iron racks, which were piled with all kinds of broken and sundry items, including a large number of paper books, various incomplete iron pieces, wood pieces, jade slips and other items. These things were piled up in different categories, and they were labeled according to their text forms, such as circular civilization, square civilization, etc., and the place of origin was indicated. Boss Xiao looked through it carefully for a long time and was slightly disappointed. He thought that there should be many powerful martial arts secrets in the warehouse of Star City, but in fact, it was not as rich as he imagined. Most of them were meaningless books and chapters, or fragments of words, and only a few were complete scrolls of magic, and most of them were some three-legged cat martial arts secrets and low-level small spells, both Eastern and Western. Most of the secret manuals that Star Gate has cracked are of this level, because the words they use are relatively easy to interpret.
This is normal.
According to the settings of most worlds, advanced skills are often hosted in obscure runes, or directly passed on through divine thoughts such as jade slips and scrolls.
The former requires a deep study of fantasy power to comprehend, while the latter can be read directly with mental power, but it is basically used by scavengers.
Both things are very rare.
"The law cannot be passed on lightly, and it is naturally even less likely to fall into the garbage world."
Boss Xiao shook his head.
At this moment, a five-color jade bi in the corner attracted his attention.
The jade bi is very simple and has some cracks. The five corners are engraved with five mysterious patterns that resemble gold, wood, water, fire and earth. It is obviously a product of oriental fantasy.
"Suspected to be related to the five elements?"
Xiao Yang picked up the jade bi.
"Boss Xiao likes this jade bi? According to our research, this should be the kind of item that can be read directly with soul power, but it seems to be protected and needs to meet certain conditions. I guess that only those who meet the five abilities indicated above are qualified..."
Old Yak explained.
"This thing has been in the warehouse for a long time, but unfortunately we have never been able to crack it. Have you seen the magical water-based supernatural power secret of Deputy City Lord Xinglan? The jade disc and the secret of that square civilization are produced from the same garbage dump."
"Five supernatural powers?"
Boss Xiao was overjoyed.
"Could it be that only those who have the power of the five elements or the five elements spiritual roots can obtain the inheritance inside?"
