Chapter 260 110. Smart Ren

Under the shadow of the plants, Insi-Huzi stood up quickly and vigilantly with his tail coiled. He peeled off the leaves in front of him and slowly walked out of the hidden jungle. There was still something in his hand.

He was carrying a short javelin that was coated with poison and would kill him if he licked it with his tongue.

Inshi-Huz is a strange skink. He was born from the hatching pool of Hesiota in the City of the Sun last year. The strange thing is that he appears as the leader of the skinks, not as the priest of the skinks.

, he was the only tadpole born in the hatching pond last year.

When the three stars Sharib, Vedra and Rokaratia were aligned with the medieval planet, the continent of Lustria was plagued by powerful unnatural storms, and heavy rains washed away Hesiota, Inhi-

Huzi stepped out of the hatching tank and roared to the sky.

At the same time, strange lizardmen emerged from the hatching tanks that were still functioning in the Lustria continent.

As the leader of the Skinks, Inshi-Khuz quickly showed his talents. He was good at using shields and spears, and he also carried several short spears and javelins. These short spears had sharp barbs and a kind of tip.

The extremely powerful venom secreted by the water tiger lizard unique to the swamp. He has perfected this tactic of throwing short spear javelins when he charges or when the enemy charges him, and then entering hand-to-hand combat with shield and spear, of course

This set of tactics was all accomplished on the back of the cold lizard. This time he got a prophecy in his sleep and came to look for his giant-horned cold lizard.

After Bibalaleon waved lightly to the surrounding family guards and Colonia again, he jumped off the cold lizard and walked cautiously. The jungle was full of dangers, especially the tangled branches under his feet. At this time, he was

It would be a joke to trip over. After a while, he finally walked to a place not far in front of Yinxi Huzi.

"Praise Iqi! Are you a Skink from Hesiota, the City of the Sun?" Renne observed Insi-Huz, spread out his hands and asked cautiously.

"Hiss... yes, praise Ichi! You may call me... Inshi-Huzi! I come from the hatching pond of Hesiota, born when the stars aligned last year!" Inshi-Huzi

While spitting out the letter, he raised his head and said proudly.

"Nice to meet you Yinxi Huzi. My name is Renn Takaia and I am a Druchi. The hot-blooded species you call me. How far is this place from Tepok Mirror Pond?" Renn saw Yinxi-

Huzi's stinky fart, he raised his eyebrows in displeasure, but he didn't say anything. It was more important to complete Lord Darkus's instructions and get down to business.

"You are going the wrong way. This is... the northwest of Hesiota. What is your... purpose of going there?!" Yinxi Huzi asked cautiously while still confirming.

After his birth, Inshi-Huzi heard some stories about the magical Umak from the skink priest Pikipochi who served Lord Mazdamudi and managed Hesiota.

Of course, Umak is just incidental to the story. The protagonist of the story is Chupa Coco, Pichipochi’s good brother. Chupa Coco takes Umak on a journey from the northernmost point to the southernmost point of the Lustria continent.

In his limited knowledge, although Umak is sacred, it appears from the story to be just a dispensable burden. Chupa Coco went through many hardships along the way, leading the team to overcome difficulties and obstacles, and even participated in the Moon

The battle between Taraxlan and the group of green hot-blooded species re-excavated the city of lenses, Spicazuma, and discovered the city of disguise, Holoto. Of course, the most important thing is that Chupa Coco used magic in the Hall of Unknown Constellations.

Banished a Chaos Demon!

"Praise the Old Ones! I need to contact the respected Lord Mazdamudi through the Skink Priest stationed at the Mirror Pool of Taibok! I have important matters to discuss with the god Lord Mazdamudi on the orders of Ummak

.”

Ren knew these skinks, he knew them so well that he could even identify each skink by its facial features, rather than by the feathers, fur and jewelry it wore. Although the skink in front of him was taller than

The largest skink he had seen before was even taller.

In Darkus' words, he is a big skink.

The speaking level of the Skink in front of him was completely in line with Ren's understanding of the level of the Skink leader. He was dull, stupid, and stuttered. He might as well just stop talking like the Lizard and the Monitor. If possible, he wanted to hear the Skink Priest hiss.

Kaka's babble didn't want to communicate with the leader of the skinks and ordinary skinks, but he knew what keywords to use to gain the trust of these strange creatures.

Thinking of this, Ren's arrogance slightly overwhelmed his reason. He raised his eyebrows again. Just as he was about to raise his head and look at the leader of the skinks opposite, his reason once again defeated his instinctive arrogance. He had not forgotten him.

What did he come for? This was the first mission Darkus had given him, and it was such an important mission.

Renn has been with Dacus for almost ten years. He knows Dacus well. Although Dacus shows a kind of kindness, generosity and dignity that Druch does not have, when it is so important, it is so important that it matters.

"Great cause" because if he messed up, he didn't dare to think about it anymore. He didn't want to let his unique educational and display significance bear the anger of Darkus and Malekith. When the time comes, Takaia

If the family is no longer revived, if it is no longer possible to mix in Drukhi society, his brothers and sisters will have to pay for his actions.

"Here...the distance to Hesiota is shorter than the distance to...Tepok Mirror Pool!" Inshi-Huzi said while shaking his head, his crown flashing as he shook his head.

A different color.

"Are you out on patrol or are you dragon egg bounty hunters looking for dragon eggs?"

"Hot-blooded, I got a sign and came here!" The word "Dragon Egg Bounty Hunter" triggered the final Turing test of Insi-Huzi.

At this time, Yinxi Huzi already knew that the strange hot-blooded species in front of him did have a deep connection with the lizard people. The omen he thought was that he would get a giant-horned cold lizard that belonged to him, but the result... Although

Umak is a burden, but he is also sacred. As a skink, he has the obligation to obey the envoy duties of the ancient holy messenger Umak. After bringing it to the destination, it is not too late to come out and find it during the dry season.

Inshi-Huzi felt relieved about Ren. He turned around and waved, and about twenty skinks carrying slings, javelins, spears and blowpipes came out from various parts of the jungle.

The family guards carefully watched the skinks coming out of the nearby jungle. As they expected, they were indeed surrounded, but they still followed Ren's instructions and did not draw their weapons.

Ren squinted his eyes and searched carefully, and found that among the twenty skinks, there was no skink that he had painted a portrait of in the grand market of Hesiota. It would not be so troublesome to communicate with one of them.

"Hot-bloodeds, are you going to Hesiota...or the Mirror Pond of Tebok?" Yinxi Huzi was still stumbling as he spoke.

"Hesiota!" Renn originally wanted to go to the Taibok Mirror Pool as originally planned, but he suddenly thought of something, turned his head and glanced at Colonia before saying.

Ren knew that the Quanguo Egg that Darkus gave to his sister was still in the Taibok Mirror Pool. He didn't want Colonia to know the existence of the Quanguo Egg, at least for the time being. He knew about the Quanguo Egg.

What's extraordinary, what if the egg of Quanguo happens to have hatched? How will it be settled then? He is not willing to gamble on the odds, the egg of Quanguo belongs to his sister.

But Ren also knew that there were only two seasons in Lustria: the dry season and the rainy season.

The dry season lasts from mid-May to mid-November of Euric in the imperial calendar. It still rains during the dry season, but the characteristic of this season is that rivers do not overflow their banks and many pools can be encountered. As the season progresses

Over time, many pools will dry up, and the dry season is a good time for exploration and travel.

The rainy season is characterized by more frequent storms and heavy downpours, rivers overflowing their banks, and shrinking ponds becoming part of a larger jungle ocean. The water surface rises to the treetops in many low-lying areas, so during this period

Time travel is dangerous. Having stayed in Lustria for two years before, he knew that even though the team's lineup was so luxurious at that time, Darkus stayed in the temple city honestly during the rainy season.

Now the rainy season has arrived.

What Ren didn't know was that no matter what he considered for a certain purpose, his decision was correct to a certain extent. The call between the Slann Demon Priest and the Skink Priest was one-way, and Darkus was taking risks.

On his journey, he was able to get in touch with Lord Mazdamudi. That was because Lord Mazdamudi did not meditate. Even when he was doing things, he was always paying attention to Darkus through the vision of the Skink Priest and Oracle. Now

The situation at the Taibok Mirror Pond is hard to say.

"Hot-blooded race, the stars have been revealed, and our destinies are connected!" Yinxi Huzi hissed. This sentence was the most fluent one he had ever spoken since he was only a year old.

Pikipochi learned this secretly, and he would say this sentence every time Pikipochi asked him to do something.

Renn nodded. He originally wanted to imitate Darkus and stepped forward to shake hands with Insi-Huzi, but after thinking about it, he decided against it. After all, he was not familiar with him yet, so there was no misunderstanding.

"It seems that your negotiation was successful?" Colonia looked at Ren who turned around and walked back and asked with a smile.

"Fortunately, the leader of the Skink opposite looks like he's not very smart. Maybe it's because he was just born? But it's not important. We don't need to go to the Taibok Mirror Pool. We will go directly to Hesio next.

Tower, a great city!" Ren was rummaging around in the saddle, shrugging and saying nonchalantly. He wanted to find out the potion that the Druchi cold lizard fear knight usually put on his body and give it to the skinks. He knew

Neither the cold lizards of Naggaroth nor Lustria are skinks, only certain lizard knights who can emit stinky smells.

"You have never told me before that you can speak the language of the lizard people, and my brother has never told me. I thought you were just a guide who knows the way. Ah, I should have thought of it before, but just like you

As you said, it's not important. What's important is that you can teach me the lizardman language? I will need to exchange some magical mysteries with those mysterious Slann priests." Colonia lay on the saddle and watched.

Ren said with a smile, she only talked about magic, but she didn't tell Ren about the curse.

"Okay." Renn stopped what he was doing and glanced at Colonia blankly. Although he didn't know why Colonia wanted to learn lizard language, in his opinion

Being able to speak Lizardman is not important at all. His sister can speak a few words of Lizardman when she exchanges magic with Lord Mazdamudi. As long as you have the talent and are willing to learn, you can still learn it. And with the arrival of the Black Ark Fleet,

In the future, more Druki will master the lizard language. What is important is the ability and trust that Darkus appreciates. He nodded and agreed.

The team took a brief rest, and then this strange team consisting of a sorceress, a slave master, a cold lizard fear knight and a skink continued to set off.

But the journey was interrupted again when a family guard coughed violently and continuously.

"Asphyxiating pulmonary failure!" Dr. Lane made a diagnosis directly after observing the symptoms of the family guard.

This is a worsening of the lung condition caused by a combination of spores produced by mold in extremely humid conditions and foul gases seeping from Lustria's swamps and pools. Asphyxiative lung failure narrows the airways, leading to violent coughing

, and then make a harsh whooshing sound when inhaling.

Renn did not seek help from Colonia and the Skinks, but took out a bottle of potion from his saddle bag, covered his mouth and nose and handed it to the family guard. As a man who has been in Lustria for two years,

A 20-year-old Druchi polymath, he knew very well how to deal with these emergencies, and he made some corresponding preparations before setting off from Krakalund.

"Check again to see if you have any symptoms of discomfort!" Renn ordered loudly while looking at the family guards around him.

"I feel like my eyes are a little blurry." A family guard said with a bitter expression. He kept wiping his eyes as he spoke. As he wiped, blood and tears flowed from his eyes.

"Hemorrhagic eye rot! Keep holding on." Renne made a diagnosis after observing closely for a while.

This disease causes the eyes to discharge foamy yellow-green secretions, blurring the vision of the affected person. The affected person will shed a steady stream of bloody tears and find that their vision is getting blurry. Although the disease is rarely fatal

, but will make the victim weak and disabled.

Ren knew that this kind of symptom could only be alleviated by the corresponding herbal medicine, but he hadn't seen it yet, so he could only ask the family guard to persist. He checked again, and luckily there was no other transmission through mosquitoes.

It can cause vomiting malaria and blind worm spasms. The repellent lotion brought before departure and the odor emitted by cold lizards can drive away mosquitoes.

Vomiting malaria is a common, non-dangerous infectious disease in Lustria. It is preceded by a sudden onset of nausea, resulting in vomiting of large amounts of yellow liquid, followed by fever within a day, followed by a longer illness.

Fatigue and discomfort.

Blindworm spasms are contracted from the bite of the pallid bug, a large, carnivorous cave worm that lives in wide rock crevices and camouflaged burrows. The pallid worm lies just below the opening of their nest, in a jagged shape

Its lower jaw opens like a bear trap. Two thin fangs extend upward. If a creature touches them, the worm will jump out and bite off a large piece of meat from the prey. Although it can cause damage, blind worms

The attack itself is rarely fatal.

What is terrifying is the ensuing blindworm spasm. When the pale blindworm bites, it will inject tiny blindworm larvae into the blood of the victim. The first sign is a brief abdominal discomfort, as the tiny parasites devour

The contents in the intestinal tract of the infected person become larger and larger, and as the body tries to expel the larvae as quickly as possible, the discomfort will turn into severe pain, accompanied by bloody stools.

This is not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is that the terrible wounds left at the excretion port and the tearing of the intestines will cause subsequent symptoms.

The team then continued to set off, encountering all kinds of terrifying and deadly animals and plants along the way. Just like Renn's first pioneering journey to Hesiota with Darkus, it was dangerous and deadly, even when moving in the jungle.

Even an experienced skink can be hit accidentally.

"It seems that the situation got better after getting that strange flag." Ren held the repeating crossbow in his hand, and while thinking, he looked around for herbs. At the same time, he also looked at the dangerous animals and plants around him with vigilance. He remembered that it was in He

After Siota comes out, the luminous flag will drive away the surrounding creatures, thus freeing the team from the deadly troubles encountered while traveling in the jungle.

Renn saw a skink squatting down and picking up a green tiger iguana with blue spots on its back from the grass and holding it in his hand.

"Tiger iguana, this is a large reptile like a gecko, with pads on its toes that can easily climb. They are nocturnal creatures that live in trees and are widely distributed throughout the Lustrian rainforest. They are

It will prey on some of the more dangerous insects in the jungle, such as blood maggots and carrion ants." Ren once again transformed into a Lustrian naturalist and explained to the Druchi around him.

But it was obvious that only Colonia was listening carefully, and the family guards were not interested in this at all. They only had one idea in their minds, and that was to survive in this jungle!

"Can I keep it as a pet?" Colonia asked with interest, looking at the chirping tiger iguana in the skink's hand.

"Of course, tiger iguanas can be trained to make loud noises when they detect intruders." Ren said eloquently. He looked at Colonia's longing eyes and then added, "This kind of creature is the only one in the jungle."

It’s everywhere.”

"Be careful to lower your head! Don't touch that vine, it's a poisonous snake vine!" After a while, Renn reminded the family guard walking at the front that the Skink that had passed was too short, but the one riding on the Cold Lizard

It's different with Druchi, they can just scratch it.

The poisonous snake vine grows high in the jungle canopy and usually does not cause trouble to creatures walking on the ground below. However, if you accidentally touch it, the danger will appear. The vine is famous for its dark green leaves that are hard and have sharp edges.

The leaves grow along with the vine, injecting poison into anyone unfortunate enough to be stung by its barbs.

There were many scary plants encountered along the way, but Renn also found herbs that could treat hemorrhagic eye rot.

Piercing spines, a ground-creeping plant, can be identified by their small olive-green leaves and needle-like spikes. When the plant senses the vibrations of nearby hot-blooded species, these spines will flip upward, and the spines are strong enough to puncture the hot-blooded species.

The soles of boots.

Grappling vine, a mobile plant. Succulent, thorny leaves grow on vines that coil around the jungle floor and tree trunks. If you accidentally bump into the vines, the leaves will entangle and puncture it,

Feeds on spilled blood. Once its prey dies, the grappler pulls the corpse toward the trunk of the plant so it can be used as fertilizer.

When I caught the creeping vine, I was named "Untouchable" by Ren!

Bloodthirsty spore clouds and pink fungi are a fixture on the Lustrian forest floor, usually found in moist areas where vegetation is rotting. Apart from its conspicuous color, this fungus appears to be harmless. But once stepped on

This fungus can have disastrous consequences. The fungus releases a cloud of spores that can lead to a terrible infection. This may be how the family guard suffered asphyxiative lung failure.

Wren was speaking tirelessly to his only audience, and Colonia kept nodding while listening, and sometimes asked some questions, just like two naturalists talking about professional issues, and sometimes Colonia

And some sampling using black magic.

Although Malus is dead, his spirit still lives on...
