667 Ancient life scroll (Chapter 7.6)
the macaw knew that the entire mechanical fortress was under surveillance, and troy was everywhere.
However, to the macaw, link was busy with a lot of things every day. He had to lay the foundations and make arrangements for his grand plans in the future. He definitely wouldn’t put his attention on a small figure like it who only knew how to have fun. Troy had to spend his time on the voyage and the research of the pirate ship and the medium transport ship with Helen every day. He definitely didn’t have time to care about it, right?
It was with this hope that the macaw and the Silver Hand had sneaked out, but they were still caught red-handed by link.
Link brought the bird and human back to his territory. He made a cup of tea and sat back in his chair. Looking at the two clowns who had done something wrong and were still standing there, he suddenly felt that this scene was familiar. It was like a form teacher calling the naughty children in the class to the office to give them a lecture. The scene was exactly the same.
alright, you can tell me what useful information you’ve obtained today. Link’s tone was calm, and he had no intention of criticizing the two. He immediately jumped to the mission report stage.
the macaw and the silver hand were extremely surprised. they looked at each other and asked, ” ” you’re not going to hold us responsible for sneaking into the rest area and contacting the mercenary group? ”
I was the one who sent you to Scout, ” said link, confused. how can you say you’ve sneaked in? ”
His words rendered the macaw and the Silver Hand speechless.
The macaw was also a flexible person. Seeing that link didn’t blame them and even protected them on the surface, giving the two fake envoys the title of true envoys, clearly meaning to let bygones be bygones, it immediately laughed and said,”Boss, we’ve found quite a bit of explosive information this time, including why the batins mercenary group appeared here, as well as some of their internal affairs. Allow me to explain in detail.”
The macaw moved closer to link and began to explain.
“First of all, we pretended to quarrel after we went in to attract their attention, Yingying.”
silver hand’s mouth twitched as he said this. In fact, it wasn’t a fake quarrel. It was real. At that time, all his attention was on the quarrel and he did not notice the mercenary group approaching. Now, he was naturally saying this to beautify it.
after entering the interior, I directly questioned batins based on the information I heard from the mechanical fortress a few days ago. In the end, this guy couldn’t withstand my verbal attack and directly admitted that they came to the Fandi system to carry out a mission.
Link raised an eyebrow. He suddenly had a feeling that the truth was right in front of him.
” they said that they’ve received a commission from a company called the roswell foundation to come here in search of an item. However, batins said that they only found the box and did not see anything inside. Oh, right, batins also showed me that box. the metal box was carved with complicated patterns, and the patterns carved around it were of millions of corpses, and then all of them turned into skeletons, and the final scene of the great demon’s descent.”
The moment link heard the name of the Rothschild Foundation, he could not help but smile. When the macaw talked about the metal box and the millions of corpses that had turned into skeletons, he was certain that the item the macaw was describing was the treasure he had thought of before-the ancient scroll of life.
“After that, silver hand even fought with lie Fu, who was known to be one of the top three mercenaries. Lie Fu looked big, half of his body was made of metal, and there was a reactor in his heart, which was very scary. Moreover, he had activated his third form at the beginning of the battle. Even so, he was still knocked out by silver hand with a single punch. After being killed in one hit, this guy actually didn’t get angry. Instead, he cried out,”I give it to you!” He was very grateful to silver hand. The macaw described the scene with a glib tongue. In the end, it came out of the resting area and reported the situation to link.
Link nodded. After a while, he asked, ” “Old Jin, are you sure that the metal box you saw was empty?”
The macaw nodded repeatedly, then looked at silver hand, who didn’t even dare to breathe. “It’s empty, silver hand saw it too.”
Silver hand nodded as well, proving that the box was empty.
After all, he was one of the four legends of the wasteland planet. He still had the ability to judge. Moreover, with batins ‘strength, even if he were to use illusions in front of them, he would be able to see through it with a glance.
They had confirmed that the batins mercenary group’s mission was indeed related to the Rothwell Foundation, and they would definitely get their hands on the ancient Book of Life. however, batins did not hide the mission from the macaw and said that he had only received an empty box. This was clearly half-truth, half-lie, trying to deceive the world.
if he was not wrong, the real ancient scroll of life should still be with the mercenary group members.
that’s right. Both of you have contributed greatly to the investigation this time. As for what you said about them wanting to leave early, you can use the reason that the spaceship’s maintenance is not completed to delay them for two days.
The macaw’s sharp senses told it that link had some sort of plan in mind, and it was most likely for the metal box. It couldn’t help but ask, ” “Link, tell me the truth. Is there a story behind that box?”
link knew that even if he didn’t say anything, the macaw would find a way to investigate. In order not to cause any trouble, link decided to tell them the truth.
the Roswell Foundation is a well-known company in the mowall galaxy cluster. Its main business is to study the ancient ruins and ancient products in the Galaxy. You can understand them as the joint pharmaceutical company in the mowall Galaxy, but they are neutral and not considered the villains.
The macaw and the Silver Hand were suddenly enlightened. This explanation was very simple and clear. They instantly understood what the Rothwell Foundation was doing.
“As for this box, it contains the ancient scroll of life. I believe you can tell the story from the appearance of the iron box. Some kind of plague descended, and all living people turned into corpses and skeletons, becoming the slaves of the God of plague. The end of the world had arrived. This ancient scroll of life is used to fight against the God of plagues.”
The macaw and silver hand were dumbfounded.
why was it that they could cause the end of the world and the universe’s crisis just by getting involved in a matter?
Link was afraid that the two still didn’t know the God of plagues ‘strength, so he gave another example.”Grace’s gray mist and mutated cells are actually one of the products of the God of plagues. the god of plagues can sense it through rituals and give so-called ‘blessings’ to expand its influence and believers in the universe.”
The macaw and Silverhand gasped. They were very clear about the power of the gray fog and the mutated cells. These were the two most powerful points of the grace alchemy Army.
The macaw clenched its wings and slammed the table angrily, ” “So grace, with her long legs and big boobs, is actually the God of plagues” Lackey!”
Link quickly comforted the macaw. grace only got this at the cost of her life. In reality, she has no direct contact with the God of plagues. She doesn’t even know about his existence. I’m just giving you an example to show you the tip of the iceberg of the God of plagues ‘strength. I’m not trying to make my own people my enemy.”
“I’m telling you all this because I want to tell you that we must get the ancient scroll of life,” said link. The God of plagues was still cultivating believers in the universe to develop his forces wantonly. One day, it would completely explode and become a disaster that would sweep across the entire universe. If we can get the ancient scroll of life and make preparations in advance ... That way, we won’t be affected by this disaster and might even play a decisive role in the counterattack.”
Link didn’t forget his position just because of the mercenary group’s imagination. Furthermore, they were a newbie that had entered space from a level-0 civilization. Now that the ancient Book of Life was right in front of him, as long as he seized the opportunity to make further preparations, he would definitely be able to seize the initiative and shine in version 3.0.
The macaw’s eyes flashed with determination, then it stretched out its wings and gestured at its neck, ” “Why don’t we just kill them and get the ancient life scroll?”
Link’s mouth was wide open in surprise,”you can’t have the idea of killing and robbing.” Besides, who do you think I am? Do I look like someone who would kill for a mere scroll of life?”
Link’s words were powerful and resonating, and the macaw and silver hand couldn’t help but be shocked.
we have the treasure-hunting mouse and the agent mouse team. We just need them to sneak in quietly and steal the scroll of life, right? ”
The turn of events happened too quickly. The macaw and the Silver Hand didn’t have time to react. Their mouths twitched, and they were speechless.
In version 3.0 of doomsday echo, the Rothwell Foundation had used the ancient Book of Life to unite all the major organizations in the morwall Galaxy to fight against the God of plagues. In the end, they had even received the attention of the deep space Galactic Development Alliance. as the first mercenary group to bring the ancient book of life back to the morwall galaxy group, the batins mercenary group had also received the support of the roswell foundation and became the top mercenary group in the galaxy group.
Now that link had run into her, she naturally had to say, ” fellow Daoist, please wait. I think we’re fated.
Now that he had decided to obtain the ancient scroll of life, he had to solve the second problem.
In the version in his previous life, the Rothwell Foundation had found clues in the research of interstellar ancient culture and ancient ruins, and had then entrusted the batins mercenary group to search the target location. in other words, the roswell foundation knew what was inside the metal box. If he took it from the batins mercenary group now, it would definitely arouse the Rothwell Foundation’s suspicion, and they would point their fingers at him.
he was only a wasteland expeditionary force from a level-0 civilization. although he had the black throne, he was definitely not a match for the old golden foundation in the galaxy.
When it was time to be domineering, he had to be domineering. When it was time to be humble, he had to be humble.
Hence, Link’s plan was to retrieve the ancient life scroll, duplicate it, and then return it without anyone knowing.
Now, there was only one problem left. How to completely copy the ancient scroll?
There were a few options before link.
One was ya Jiko’s analytical ability.
The second was Troy’s data analyzing ability.
...
The third was to see if Helen had any good ideas.
