Chapter 95: Boom! Lion G.o.d Sculpture Acquired!
There was no person in charge in the lion clan’s camp. After the sculpture fell out, there was chaos in the camp.
All the lion people were kneeling and wors.h.i.+ping as if they had seen their ancestors, and the sound of kowtowing resonated endlessly.
Taking out the binoculars, Su Mo looked at the lion warrior who was holding the wooden sculpture.
In his hand, the wooden sculpture still exuded a bright emerald light. The mystical traits of this sculpture could even be seen in broad daylight.
The wood sculpture was modeled after a lionman and almost seemed lifelike when examined from top to bottom.
Its robe had been engraved with lines that radiated a different kind of beauty. It was a pity that there were no facial features on the head of the wooden sculpture.
The lion’s face was blank.
At first glance, it looked mind-boggling. However, it was this very faceless lion sculpture that had all the surrounding lion people wors.h.i.+ping it.
The ceremony continued.
The lion sculpture was pa.s.sed around quickly from left to right. Every person who got their hands on the wooden sculpture seemed abnormally surprised and would kowtow repeatedly.
Su Mo waited patiently until it was pa.s.sed to the last person. After pa.s.sing it to the powerful lion man in the center, the ceremony ended.
The lion people that were gathered together suddenly dispersed.
Under the leaders.h.i.+p of the previous lion man, everyone began to walk in an orderly manner to their original positions.
“Good good, keep coming in my direction, come on!”
Looking through the gap between the giant logs, Su Mo watched as the lion warrior walked toward the back of the camp. Su Mo’s heartbeat sped up uncontrollably.
There was no strict discipline enforced, so the lion warrior did not know what to do with the wooden sculpture. He thus opened the door of the big house at the rear of the camp and walked into it.
After three to five seconds, the lion warrior walked out again, without a trace of the wooden sculpture on his person.
“An opportunity! I have to obtain this thing before the Lioness comes back. Otherwise, once I set off the bomb, the object might be blown up!”
Seeing the lion warrior gradually walk away, Su Mo could not withhold his inner restlessness any longer and waved his hand through the air.
A shovel with a simple shape, but full of power and beauty, appeared in Su Mo’s hands.
It was the only excellent-quality shovel that had been produced by Su Mo among all his other tools.
Su Mo moved to the rear of the big house and looked at the giant logs piled up behind it.Su Mo started digging savagely at the ground in front of the logs!
The shovel had the advanced characteristics of sharpness, labor-saving and resistance reduction after a critical hit. Su Mo dug vigorously.
Under the giant log, a deep pit that could fit half a person through was gradually forming.
As he dug into the deep pit frantically, Su Mo sweated buckets, his every shovel motion applied enough strength to displace large amounts of dirt and mud.
Using the last bit of s.p.a.ce in the storage s.p.a.ce, Su Mo filled the excavated soil and threw it aside by focusing his will.
In less than ten minutes, Su Mo had forcibly dug out a pa.s.sage under the giant log that led directly to the back of the house.
“It’s great that this house is so close to the giant logs while also coincidentally blocking the line of sight of others, creating this natural opportunity for me!”
Digging through, he saw that there were no lion people on either side and could no longer restrain the joy in his heart. He tilted his body and looked into the back of the house.
“Oreo, is there anyone?” Su Mo said softly.
Seeing that Oreo shook her head cautiously, Su Mo took two deep breaths and took out the iron axe he had made previously from the storage s.p.a.ce.
This was the iron axe that witnessed Su Mo’s formal achievement of becoming an entry-level craftsman.
The axe’s critical hits could cause wood to instantly break apart. After doing a few slow swinging actions, the axe suddenly sunk into the wood, and a piece of wood was carved out.
Fearing that too much damage would cause the house to collapse, Su Mo cautiously cut out a pa.s.sage.
Peering through the pa.s.sage, he could see the internal furnis.h.i.+ngs of the structure.
The outside of the wooden house looked unattractive, but the inside was quite luxurious.
On the right side of the room hung the heads of various species. In the middle, Su Mo even saw several human heads.
“Even children! d.a.m.n these alien monsters!”
Seeing the children’s skulls on the upper right wall, Su Mo’s hands tightened dangerously.
Like the kobolds, these lion people were not creatures with good intentions. They cooperated only because they were frightened and awed by Su Mo’s strength.
Under the skull trophies was a wooden bed covered with some thatch. There was no quilt, only some scattered thatch.
In front of the wooden bed, there was a huge wooden table with scattered pieces of parchment on it.
In the middle of the wooden house, there was also a small table, in front of which was some b.l.o.o.d.y meat and a few cups of an unknown liquid.
“I don’t see the wooden sculpture, but it should have been placed on the middle table by the lion warrior.”
Because of his angle of view, Su Mo could not see too much. He signaled Oreo to be on alert. He got down and slid into the room with both hands.
[Record]: Player Su Mo has entered the core shelter of the species “Lion People”. You have the following three options to choose from.
[Record]: First, choose to destroy the lion clan’s shelter, obtain the core of the damaged safe house, and steal a little of the lion people’s divinity.
[Record]: Second, steal the lion-man sculpture and give up on destroying the shelter. If you are noticed, you will be hunted by the lion clan forever.
[Record]: Third, kill the owner of the lion clan’s shelter. Replace the core of the complete safe house, integrate the lion clan’s shelter, and obtain the Extraordinary Lion Men Shelter.
The abrupt game panel prompt sounded when Su Mo climbed into the wooden house.
Su Mo, who was still crawling on the ground, was taken aback by the sound.
Focusing silently, the game panel appeared. Looking at the three choices, Su Mo did not hesitate to turn off the panel and stood in the room to look around.
The previous lion-man wood sculpture was placed on the small table in the middle.
Su Mo crouched down and avoided the window. He slowly moved closer and began to focus on the attributes of the lion-man sculpture.
[Lion G.o.d (Excellent, Sculpture of Sacrifice)]
[Description: After the lion people won an ethnic battle between one of the more than 300 races, they received a second chance to open the portal. In the selection process, the elder of the lion clan chose to sacrifice 300 people in exchange for the Lion G.o.d Sculpture of their ancestor—to obtain combat, life, disaster resistance and comprehensive gains. It is currently in a sacrificial state and has not yet been activated for use.]
[Special abilities:
- Sacrifice: After possessing the sculpture, for every 100 foreign enemies sacrificed, a fixed amount of the lion people’s divinity will be obtained.
- Strength: After the sculpture is activated, every point of divinity consumed, will increase the strength attribute of the owner (for 24 hours).
- Stormy Wind Shelter: A shelter with the Lion G.o.d sculpture will always receive level 1 blessing of the Extraordinary Lion G.o.d.]
[Comment: The convergence of different worlds! Enjoy the magic!]
“Three attributes, and the lion G.o.d’s blessing. It turns out that the supernatural characteristics of Magoo’s shelter were obtained in this way!” Looking at the three attributes, Su Mo exclaimed, unable to help himself.
This strange sculpture of a lion G.o.d did not disappoint.
Among the three attributes, other than the first one, the remaining two were extremely useful.
To think that the shelter would soon have a second blessing, Su Mo could not restrain his excitement any longer. He grasped the wooden sculpture and put it into the storage s.p.a.ce.
As for the prompt on the game panel about being discovered and hunted down by the lion clan, Su Mo did not even pay it any mind.
As long as it was a foreign race, they would always be considered to be an enemy, unless he had the absolute strength to suppress them.
“According to the description of the system, it seems that the battle of lion people is indeed different from that of humans. As long as humans defeat foreign species, they have a chance to get treasure chest rewards. However, foreign races can open the cracks and summon reinforcements from their clan if they achieve victory in their ethnic conflict.”
“The superiority of either party in this conflict is still unknown. However, if I don’t get rid of both the lion people and the kobolds, when their numbers increase, it will be a disaster for me in the long run!”
Walking over to the table, Su Mo took down all the parchments and looked at the strange writings and drawings on them. Then he simply stuffed them all into the remaining gaps in the storage s.p.a.ce.
After flipping through the cabinet under the table and the cardboard box under the bed, Su Mo once again saw something that had made him green with envy before this…
The Lioness’s staff!
“The kobolds use gunpowder to increase the power of their fireb.a.l.l.s. I wonder how the lion clan’s staff is used.”
Focusing mentally, Su Mo tried to summon the system to check its attributes, but like the kobold staff, it yielded no response.
Sheepishly, Su Mo just held it in his arms and squatted down.
All the valuable items in the entire Lion Men’s Shelter had been obtained, and probably the only valuable thing left was probably the house itself.
Focusing his will, Su Mo summoned a 1-catty explosive pack into his hand. After placing it in the center of the room, he pulled out a 2-minute lead wire.
Pulling the lead wire, Su Mo quickly backed away, until he got out of the wooden house and the hole under the giant log. He only felt relieved after he got out.
He summoned the system mentally and spent 5 survival points to create a lighter and ignited the lead wire.
Crackle, crackle.
The fuze began to burn rapidly, like a death waltz, gradually leading into the wooden house through the hole under the giant log.
“Dong dong.” Su Mo switched on the boost of his electric boots.
Carrying Oreo, Su Mo quickly ran back without bothering to conceal himself.
Under the wilderness, a light breeze was blowing and, as the two-minute timer elapsed, the lion people’s shelter suddenly turned into a fiery blaze.
[Record: Congratulations to the player “Su Mo” for destroying the core shelter of the species “Lion People”, gaining 500 disaster points.]
[Record: Congratulations to the player “Su Mo” for destroying the core shelter of the species “Lion People”, gaining the lion men’s divinity*1.]
Su Mo felt the shockwave caused by the explosions behind him. Hearing the prompts from the game panel, Su Mo could not hide his excitement any longer and let out an exhilarated laugh.
