Chapter 1250 (1/2)
The stones that were thrown away and rolled to one side were not big, and each one was about half a man's height in diameter. The stone itself is nothing special, but the surface of the stone is covered with orange red veins that radiate warm light like blood vessels. And some organs with biological characteristics slowly protruding from the stone as the potential energy on the body disappears.
It may not be accurate to say that organs are, because no one can connect the cylinder like bodies, which appear to be made entirely of broken stones, with the limbs of animals. However, when two stones use the cylinder that protrudes from the inside, straightens the body in a certain direction and opens an orange eye from the confluence of all the orange red veins, the situation is different.
”Stone man.” Cheese whispered their names.
The term ”Stone Man” is a translation of its meaning by human beings. Its original text comes from the ancient language family of dwarves, and its original meaning is the eye in stone. This is a kind of creature that even the sons of hills have only heard of in legend. According to the miner's legend, stone men only live deep underground. Their presence often means that there are dangerous lava rivers nearby.
Dwarfs will withdraw from the mine after meeting this strange creature. They regard meeting the stone man as a warning from the earth. The eyes opened from the stone also have a warning meaning in the dwarf culture.
But anyway, the stone man should not be here. Their range of activities and habits are doomed to have nothing to do with the surface life. There has never been any report of encounter with stone man on the ground in history, and they have little contact with surface creatures.
There are often deep-seated reasons behind the abnormality of things. As for the abnormal things that happen here, I'm afraid the reason can be attributed to the descendants of evil gods. It is unnatural for the formation of the rock terrain itself, and there are stone figures that should not appear in the unnatural rock ground. If the two unreasonable combinations are added, the inner part may be reasonable. Perhaps it is because this piece of rock was moved to the surface, and the stone people who originally lived here were transported together.
The problem is, no matter what the entanglement between the rock ground, the stone man and the son of the evil god, these two angry stones with open eyes do not seem to be trying to reason with the cheese makers.
Whether the stone man was originally belligerent is unknown, and there is no need to force it, because any creature will show aggression when it is forced to a certain degree, either out of fear or out of anger. The difference between the two is difficult to really distinguish.
This is also no way out. They will meet sand shell people who come together because of common interests when they meet, and stone people who have a life and death hatred when they meet.
The only difference is that if the sand husks are hostile, things may not be too troublesome. Cheese has many ways to calm these restless children down. However, the development of the matter made a joke. The stone man's anger was not so easy to extinguish.
”Do you want to fight? They don't look very flexible. We should be able to run. ” Weiya doesn't know what the stone man in cheese's mouth means. To be honest, in this situation, she is willing to put down her thirst for knowledge and choose to save herself to avoid the conflict.
Because this seems to be a disaster, these grotesque stone Cyclops suddenly burst out of the geyser and hit them in front of them, showing such a hostile gesture. Anyone who faces such a situation will not want to have a direct conflict with them, which is too meaningless. Do you want to rush up and kill the wild dog who bares his teeth to you?
Lolo looked at the grey robe. From her eyes, she could feel that she supported the female mage's point of view. They had already lost half of the members, but they had not seen the shadow of the target. Anything that might increase casualties should be avoided. If it wasn't for the calm and easy attitude that cheese always showed, she would even start to suggest that the team turn around and leave.
Grey robe, silent. His eyes are focused on the stone man, which lives in the rock strata deep underground. They are not good at moving in the open and open world. At human speed, they do not constitute a real threat. But it's not just humans here.
