Chapter 59 The Origin of the Parasite
When Fang Senyan saw Travis' attack method, he immediately understood! These white men who had traveled across the ocean very likely carried some parasites that were only found in Europe at that time!
The climates of Africa and Europe are completely different, which inevitably leads to differences in species. Human parasites native to Europe may not exist in Africa at all. Or even if there are parasites in Africa, the Dubaians are likely to be free of intestinal parasites due to some unique living habits, such as eating certain plants or fruits. Therefore, after they took the Sun Ladder, the terrifying power of the Sun Ladder directly acted on their bodies, causing them to completely lose control and become tian eaters.
However, after Europeans who came from afar stole the Sun Ladder, the terrifying power in this plant, or rather, animal, might be shared and absorbed by things like roundworms, hookworms, and pork tapeworms in the Europeans' bodies. Based on their unique way of life, they evolved into a new species, which was the mutated mature body dominated by parasites that Fang Senyan had fought against!
Of course, Bernard Fok must have had some adventures back then to successfully escape this fate. He summarized this luck and recorded it in his nautical log to pass it on to his descendants. Sir Fok also replicated his ancestor's experience, and then improved on it again, which is why he became such a terrifying existence. Fang Senyan couldn't see any signs of parasites on him.
The reason why Travis showed signs that were completely different from other mutated mature bodies, Fang Senyan now tentatively estimates, is related to the fact that he had a terminal illness and had been taking medicine, and that the parasites in his body were also suppressed.
The reason why this unlucky guy was imprisoned in this place is probably the punishment of the Dubaians. On the one hand, the Dubaians may have full confidence in killing this kind of mutated mature body (because the secretions of the Sun Ladder can be said to be extremely restrained against it). Secondly, it was to make him accept this endless torture, serve as the guardian of the holy land, and punish him for blaspheming the holy land.
After Fang Senyan killed Travis, he did drop a key, but after all, luck has its ups and downs. Moreover, Nightmare Space had already stated in advance that there would be situations where the input and output were not proportional. So, in addition to getting 10,000 universal points, he only obtained one item: "Sacred Belladonna Potion."
"Category: Medicine.
"Description: Before the eighteenth century, this medicine was widely used in various aspects. Girls used it to drip into their eyes to dilate their pupils, patients used it to paralyze their nerves to resist pain, schemers used this thing to poison their opponents, and veterinarians used it to make poultry vomit to fight against the plague." "Effect: After oral administration, it can paralyze your sense of pain, and increase damage by 10% when attacked by enemies.
Duration: 10 minutes. At the same time, because holy water is added, the divine power inside may heal diseases on the body and regenerate severed limbs.
"Introduction: It was this thing that supported Travis to persevere on the African continent. It was personally prepared by Cardinal Santo Domingo of Paris... To get it, Travis paid a price of seven hundred gold coins. Now the only suspense is: Is this thing still effective after hundreds of years?" Although this item disappointed Fang Senyan, he was surprised to find that it could be sold for a considerable price of 20,000 universal points. Therefore, after Fang Senyan saw that the holy water inside might heal diseases on the body and regenerate severed limbs, he drank it very simply.
I have to admit that the taste of this potion was weird and a bit disgusting, like hot foot washing water with a little salt. After Fang Senyan drank it, he waited for a while, and suddenly felt that the surrounding sunlight seemed to gather on the broken arm. Then the wound became itchy, and the light began to slowly form an arm at the severed limb. Even the sound of hymns faintly came from his ears.
Taking advantage of this opportunity to heal the severed limb, Fang Senyan went into the stone room where Travis was imprisoned, but also found nothing. This was just a five- or six-square-meter cell, covered with dust and abnormally humid. Travis was an antique existence, not as good as Sir Fok's group more than ten years ago. After these hundreds of years, it is estimated that anything that could be used was either rusted or rotten, and everything had turned to ashes.
Just as Fang Senyan was staying here, he suddenly felt a loud "bang" outside! The small stones and dust on the cave walls shook and fell down, as if there had been a violent earthquake.
Fang Senyan was immediately shocked. It would be unlucky if he was buried alive at this time!
Logically speaking, Fang Senyan had reached his goal at this time and could return to Nightmare Space. However, there were still many mysteries in Fang Senyan's mind that had not been solved: such as the mystery of Mbenga's identity, what happened when he entered here back then, and Bernard Fok's adventure, and the mystery of the demonic horse Mome's transformation, and the reason for the decline of the Dubaian village. More importantly, there were bloody lessons vividly in front of him. The consequences of directly taking the Sun Ladder were either turning into a tian eater, or a stronger version of Travis if there were roundworms in the body. Fang Senyan didn't want to become either of these two disgusting monsters.
This was closely related to Fang Senyan's personal interests, so Fang Senyan planned to stay for a while longer, at least to solve this most important problem as much as possible.
After resting and recovering to his best condition, Fang Senyan went to see the "Sun Ladder" again, but just seeing this plant made him feel a strong threat. Obviously, it would be life-threatening to get closer at this time. He was no longer interested in challenging it again, so he returned to the place where he entered and restarted the upward "elevator" mechanism according to what Mbenga said.
Soon, he saw the very primitive "elevator" descending from the sky. At this moment, Fang Senyan smelled an extremely strong bloody smell in his nose. He immediately pulled out his knife, bent down, and guarded his weapon in front of him!
On the descending stone slab, there were several corpses lying in disorder!
These corpses were all dressed as Dubaian royal guards, with the image of an ouroboros embroidered on their faces. They held javelins in their hands and bows and arrows on their backs. The blood under them had congealed into a black and red mass. Fang Senyan discovered that a hairless dog the size of a calf was wagging its tail and licking the blood on the ground. Its back had a sun mark. When it saw a stranger, it immediately pounced on him fiercely!
When this big dog pounced in mid-air, its mouth had split open, turning into a huge bloody mouth, with森然 sharp teeth inside. However, this biochemical dog had also been severely damaged before, and Fang Senyan chopped it down with one knife. After a few consecutive cuts, he chopped off the huge dog's head and successfully killed it.
After entering this world, Fang Senyan also encountered many opportunities to unlock milestones. The highest level was actually to kill the huge blood-red tian eater boss... The rewarded milestone title was actually a rare silver level. Fang Senyan, of course, simply chose to refuse. What a joke!
However, after killing this mutated hellhound, he actually unlocked a milestone asking him if he wanted to activate it. That was to kill six types of biochemically contaminated out-of-control creatures. At this time, Fang Senyan had completed five types: biochemical dog, mutated mature body, tian eater, Dubaian giant lizard, and mutated spider crab. In this case, Fang Senyan thought carefully and chose to accept it, because he seemed to have seen carrion crows on the outskirts of the Dubaian giant swamp. This thing should also be able to make up for the last creature.
While Fang Senyan was considering the milestone, a scream suddenly came from above, and another person rolled down from above, with splashing blood.
Fang Senyan immediately jumped back. The man fell into the pile of corpses, bounced up, then supported half of his body, and fell down again, looking like a fierce ghost, dying. The part above his wrist seemed to have been gnawed off by a beast. The bloody wound revealed white bones, with dark purple blood scabs on the surface. Judging from the tooth marks and claw marks, it was mostly done by a biochemical dog.
After Fang Senyan cautiously walked over, he realized that he was still a Dubaian royal guard. He could barely tell that this person was still alive from his weak breathing. He carefully pulled away the corpses pressing on this person, lest it cause too much shock and suddenly extinguish his already weak life like a candle in the wind.
He saw that this Dubaian was about forty years old, his eyes showing a dazed, deathly gray color. His bare chest had spots of blood. Fang Senyan wanted to find out something from him, so he poured a few mouthfuls of water into him, pressed hard on his temple, and tried his best to treat him. But this person remained motionless as if dead. If his chest hadn't been rising and falling slightly, Fang Senyan would have given up.
Just when Fang Senyan was a little desperate, this person suddenly jumped up! His movements were so violent that the blood on his body splashed on Fang Senyan's face. He raised his arm holding the weapon with all his strength and shouted hoarsely, "Gulga!"
