Chapter 96 My Ancestors Are Great
In order to unlock the secret hidden in the horn and to avoid the "sourcing" dinner, Lin Taiping had a very bad premonition after hearing the invitation from Zhu Instein, he still bit the bullet and accepted it helplessly.
But soon, he realized that he had made a big mistake. For a moment, he even felt that he should stay for that hearty dinner. At least, compared to a messy and evil invention, moldy biscuits and the like would not kill people.
"I was wrong, really, I was wrong, even my pants were wrong." Passing under a crazy fire-breathing candlestick, Lin Taiping touched his almost burnt hair, and looked at the messy inventions brought out by Zhu Instein, and suddenly felt like he was crying.
But unfortunately, no matter how much he regrets it now, it is useless. Zhu Instein, who has been holding it in for more than ten years, finally met a guy who knows things. Of course, he was so excited that he trembled all over. So in less than a moment, he brought out all his great and evil inventions and introduced them in detail without getting tired of it.
A huge rust trapped with poison that is said to be deadly, and the foot bath makes any dragon stop breathing within a few seconds. As for why the dragon race does not choose to fly, but wants to walk into the trap stupidly, it is not within consideration;
A bottle of black viscous liquid is said to be the most terrifying and terrifying dark virus in the world. Just pour a drop into the water to cause humans on the entire island to be infected with plague. The only problem is that this dark virus needs to be led by dragon blood grass, and the precious plant dragon blood grass was completely extinct hundreds of years ago;
A pair of weird black boots, which seem to be made of scrap iron, can make any creature lose its self-consciousness and become a loyal and pathetic slave after wearing it, but because the boots exuded an evil dark aura, so until now, no fool is stupid enough to take the initiative to wear it;
Of course, these are nothing. The most shocking and great invention is the huge metal instrument placed in the center of the temple, assembled with hundreds of complex parts, and will make terrifying noises as long as it runs, and emit powerful magic fluctuations...
In fact, when Lin Taiping saw this giant, he felt his scalp numb and couldn't help but ask in awe: "This. Can I ask for advice on what is the use of this thing?"
"Of course." Zhu Instein leaned against the huge metal instrument, spreading his claws with pride. "Seeing that this handle does not exist, as long as I pull it down, the red gear will slowly rotate, and then drive the belt below to run, then tighten the wire above. Then stimulate the energy of the fire element, causing flames to emerge from the spray port in front, and... lit the candle ten meters away."
He was solemn and respectful. Lin Taiping felt awe-inspiring. He felt that the cold sweat was flowing down like a waterfall: "So, the only use of this thing is to light candles?"
"No, it's not lighting candles. It's lighting candles ten meters away!" Zhu Instein corrected it seriously, raised his head and raised his chest and looked proud, "How is it? Is it very clever? Is it very great? Do you feel shocked?"
There is really, Lin Taiping nodded very seriously and thought about it, but he couldn't help but raise his hand and ask: "What, it's really a shocking invention, but... I have a small problem."
"Ask!" Zhu Instein waved his hooves without even blinking his eyes.
"Can you really ask?" Lin Taiping looked at the metal instrument that was so complicated that it took half an hour to start, took a deep breath, and then asked carefully, "Okay, actually, I really want to know why we should build such a complex candlelight machine instead of just walking over and lighting candles?"
Good question, the originally proud pig Instein suddenly felt like he was stuck in his throat by an apple core, his face was dull and his face turned pale. After ten minutes of silence, it took a deep breath and hesitated to raise its hooves-
"Because, I can!"
Very very powerful, Lin Taiping didn't want to say anything. He suddenly realized that the brain structure of dark creatures was completely different from that of humans, just as Ye Ge thought it was natural to give birth to a child. Zhu Instein obviously felt that this useless invention could prove its evil wisdom.
In fact, Pig Instein is indeed very proud of his evil wisdom. It even touched the candlelight machine with love on his face, and opened his eyes wide with hope: "Lin, what do you think of my inventions?"
"Well..." Lin Taiping wanted to complain, but seeing Zhu Instein's pitiful look, he decided to be a good person occasionally. "Ahem, I think it's very good. These inventions express a strong postmodernism spirit and a modern scientific thinking art of discussion. They are wild and a bit unruly, unruly and a bit exquisite, and exquisite and..."
Well, even he didn't know what he was talking about, but Zhu Instein was obviously very happy, so happy that even Little Green Claw was trembling: "Is that right? Wow, I knew, Lin, you are a person who can deeply understand the scientific spirit, and are completely different from those idiots with IQs of less than 60."
Thanks to the praise, Lin Taiping wiped his cold sweat speechlessly. After thinking about it, he couldn't help asking: "But, there is one thing I don't quite understand. Why do you want to study these great inventions by Zhu Instein?"
"Because this is my ideal, the great and evil ideal." Zhu Instein raised his big head and looked at the sky heroically, with a fanatical light in his little eyes. "There will be one day when I will use my great and evil alchemy invention to conquer the entire Continental world, let all creatures kneel in front of me, take away their wealth, and take away their women, oh roo roo!"
To be honest, this ideal is indeed great. In fact, Lin Taiping was a little awe-inspiring: "Okay, it's really an ideal that makes people excited. It even reminds me of Dr. Octopus... But then again, man, how many islands have you conquered so far?
Very very powerful. Pig Instein was like being poured into a basin of cold water and suddenly became dejected: "Not yet, not one, I can't blame me. Although I have been studying the entire book of alchemy very seriously, so far, no alchemy invention can come in handy."
Who said? At least you can light a candle ten meters away! Lin Taiping couldn't help but complain to himself. But when he saw Zhu Instein's frustrated look, he could not help but feel a little sympathy and gently patted Zhu Instein's shoulder-
"Do you know? In my hometown, there was a very poor young man. Although everyone laughed at him, he still dreamed of opening a bank in the future, and worked hard year after year for this great ideal, and then..."
"And then, he finally opened a bank?"
"Absolutely. He later worked as an administrator in a bank and was responsible for opening the door of the bank every morning."
"Well…………"
Completely speechless, Zhu Instein was already full of hope, but when he heard this, his face was full of strangeness. He couldn't help but sighed, lowered his pig's head in frustration and disappointment, and even his big ears fell: "Lin, are you kidding me?"
"Of course not." Lin Taiping put his shoulder on it and said seriously from the bottom of his heart. "I just want to tell you that the true meaning of life lies in struggle, the result is not important, the important thing is the process of enjoying it. So as long as you persist, even if you cannot become a great and evil alchemist in the future, it will be enough to win the respect of everyone, including me."
"Um..." Zhu Instein slowly raised his big head. Looking at Lin Taiping's sincere eyes, for a few seconds, tears suddenly flashed in its small eyes.
A long time later, this evil pig-head alchemist who wanted to conquer the world suddenly held Lin Taiping's palm hard, and said word by word: "Lin, let's be friends!"
"Huh? Do I look like a rich man?" Lin Taiping touched his chin speechlessly, and then decided to change the topic. "So, let's talk about something else. Actually, I really want to know how you learned these alchemy knowledge?"
Speaking of this, Zhu Instein, who was originally a little emotionally complicated, suddenly felt energetic and proud: "Oh huh huh huh huh, I knew you would ask this, it's actually very simple, because my great-grandfather's great-grandfather's great-grandfather's great-grandfather's great-grandfather's great-grandfather's great-grandfather's great-grandfather's great-grandfather's great-grandfather... Well, in short, my ancestors were once the great alchemists of the Dark Dynasty!"
Sure enough! Lin Taiping's heart was slightly shocked. This answer was very close to his previous guess. The group of strange pig-headed monsters on Red Clay Island were obviously not because of genetic mutation, but because they were influenced by past history, so they loved alchemy inventions so much.
"Yes, my ancestors are great, very great." Zhuinstein waved his hooves with a passionate face and raised the dilapidated alchemy book high. "It is said that it was once the chief alchemist of the Duchy of Flan and created countless great alchemy inventions, but later, for some reason, suddenly went into exile to this island, and then..."
Without further discussion, Lin Taiping gradually understood that the high-hat pighead monster in the horn image was the ancestor of Pig Instein. For some unknown reasons, it fled to this island and brought the accompanying pighead monsters to reproduce and develop, gradually forming today's pighead monster tribe.
The silver-white horn must be the personal belongings of the Pighead Monster ancestor. Together with the golden high hat and the ragged alchemy book, they have been passed down from generation to generation. For some reason, the Pighead Monsters lost the horn, which led to many things now.
It seems that the so-called Dark Dynasty treasure is probably the legacy of the ancestor of the Pighead Monster and is hidden on this red clay island. However, judging from the current situation of Pig Instein, it obviously has not found those legacy, and maybe it doesn't even know whether there is any legacy.
However, since he had already asked this, he still hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively: "So, Zhu Instein, do you know what legacy your ancestors left?"
To be honest, when Lin Taiping asked this, he did not give any hope.
But beyond his expectations, Zhu Instein nodded desperately without hesitation: "Of course! Dear Lin, of course I know that my ancestors have left a lot of wealth, such as my alchemy book and the high hat, were all picked up from the ancestors' laboratories."
"Are you sure?" Lin Taiping suddenly felt heartbeat and couldn't help but open his eyes wide.
"I'm pretty sure." Zhu Instein nodded with a smug face, but for a few seconds he was happy. He sighed depressedly, "But the problem is, hundreds of years ago, my great-grandfather's great-grandfather's great-grandfather's great-grandfather seemed to touch something when he entered the laboratory. As a result, the laboratory suddenly lost control and rushed out of a large group of monsters..."
This is the fact. Because of this bad accident, the laboratory suddenly became a dangerous area. Any pighead monster who dared to break in without permission would be eliminated mercilessly. It is precisely because of this that although Pig Instein knew the existence of the laboratory, he did not dare to get close there at all. He could only sigh at the legacy left by his ancestors.
"So, where is that laboratory?" Lin Taiping finally couldn't help asking when he heard this.
"It's in the Red Pine Valley on the east side of the island." Zhu Instein replied dejectedly, but suddenly shivered and raised his head with horror on his face, "Lin, are you planning to go..."
"It's not me, but us." Lin Taiping looked at it with a smile, and the demon's tail behind him was shaking again. "I know it's dangerous there, but danger is proportional to the reward. Don't you want to find the knowledge left by your ancestors, don't you want to be a real evil alchemist, don't you want to conquer the world?"
I dreamed of it! Of course, Zhu Instein nodded desperately with his eyes shining, but no matter how he thought about it, when he thought of the terrible danger of the laboratory, he still couldn't help but tremble, and he felt that his legs could not move.
"Go and see, let's go there first, let's talk about it, how about it?" Lin Taiping continued his persuasion work. "If there is really any danger, we will retreat immediately. With me and my companions here, even if we cannot defeat those monsters, we can guarantee that everyone will escape unstoppable. Don't you believe in our strength?"
"Well..." Zhu Instein couldn't help but feel a little moved, but hesitantly scratched his big head, "I believe it, but that laboratory is really scary. The pig-headed monster who escaped back said that they had just entered the first passage and saw... Huh? What is that?"
In a state of hesitation, Zhu Instein subconsciously raised his head and suddenly showed a confused expression-
