Chapter 711 Seed: Gulu(1/2)
A dark and damp underground prison.
Water drops dripped from the walls, and black twisted plants and moss grew in the corners.
After waking up from a coma, Su Nian opened his eyes and immediately realized that his situation was not good.
The air here was filled with a damp and musty smell, mixed with a choking rancid odor that made him shudder.
The severe pain radiating from his limbs made him lower his head subconsciously.
Suddenly, he found that his limbs had been pierced by iron hooks and were suspended in mid-air. The iron chains made a cold metal collision sound as his body shook.
Beside him, there were hundreds of figures hanging in the air with their bodies pierced. Their eyes were dull, as if they had been eroded by the darkness of this dungeon.
Looking up, strange utensils were scattered around. There were dried blood stains on the rusty iron pliers and hooks. Several mutilated and rotting corpses were piled in the corner, being slowly devoured by twisted plants.
The whole prison was filled with the smell of death and despair, which made people shudder.
Su Nian tried to break free from the restraints, but severe pain hit him as his body shook, and sweat broke out on his forehead.
At the same time, a cold aura emerged from the iron chain and poured into his body, making him shiver uncontrollably.
This made Su Nian realize that he was in big trouble.
This time is no different than before, he has become a prisoner, and you can imagine how difficult it is to escape from this dungeon.
But he didn't understand why the undead creatures didn't kill him and chose to imprison him here to wait for death.
In the cold environment at this time, there was only the sound of friction and collision between water droplets and the swaying iron chains. His dim vision could not see the scene in the distance, which made him feel even heavier.
At this moment, a figure came from the darkness in the distance.
It is about 1.5 meters tall, has gray-white skin and gray pores, is hairless, and has a skinny body that makes it look very ferocious and ugly.
It dragged a half-meter-long metal hook in its left hand and a large wooden barrel in its right hand, limping to him.
Just when Su Nian was confused, the gray-white figure raised his hand and without hesitation pierced his chest with the iron hook in his hand.
"Your mother...!"
Blood suddenly spurted from the wound and slid towards the barrel in the gray-white figure's hand.
After receiving a small bucket of blood, the gray-white figure withdrew the iron hook, and then spit out a cloud of gray mist towards his chest. After contact with his wound, it turned into a transparent liquid and adhered to his wound.
Seeing this scene, Su Nian finally understood why he was not killed on the spot.
There are two types of resource lands in the domain world, namely renewable resource lands and non-renewable resource lands.
But there is also a kind of special resource land that human race has never had before. This kind of resource land is not naturally bred, but created after tomorrow.
The faith database records information about many special resources created, one of which is called the "blood slave" resource.
The resources produced by the Blood Slave Resource Land are not naturally produced spiritual springs, spiritual mines, spiritual plants, etc., but are composed of flesh and blood creatures in the domain.
Cultivating this type of resource requires capturing flesh and blood life on a large scale and imprisoning them to regularly harvest blood.
It has been recorded in the faith database that the Mists before coming to the human world also raised blood slaves, but the method was relatively gentle and they adopted mental control instead of direct imprisonment.
Thinking of this, Su Nian's expression changed.
He shuddered when he realized that he had become a blood slave of the Necrons and would endure endless harvesting of flesh and blood in the future.
But now his body is completely restrained and there is no possibility for him to break free.
At this time, the thin gray-skinned figure dragged the wooden barrel to the blood slave who was hanging next to him, harvested the blood in the same way, and after completing the harvest, it sprayed gray mist to cover the wound, so that the wound would no longer bleed.
During this period, if a blood slave is found dead, the thin, gray-skinned figure will brutally dismember the hanging person with an iron hook and throw it into a corner.
After doing all this, the thin, gray-skinned figure dragged the barrel away.
After a long time, it turned back again, and this time the barrel it dragged was filled with twisted black plants.
After the gray-white undead creatures smashed the plants in the barrel, they came to them and began to feed them one by one.
Su Nian did not resist the feeding and immediately swallowed the black plant residue.
He understands that in a desperate situation, resistance will only bring physical torture, but cooperation can save energy and look for opportunities to escape.
…
the next period of time.
Su Ming tried various ways to escape, but they all failed.
He was completely reduced to a blood slave raised by the undead. His blood was harvested regularly, and his daily food was plants full of rotten smell.
Although this kind of plant tastes disgusting, it is full of spiritual energy and will not kill him.
Occasionally, a new life of flesh and blood will be sent to him, his body will be cruelly pierced, and he will be hung in the air like him.
Days like this cannot see the future and are full of despair.
But Su Nian did not give up. He felt that his journey should not end here, and there was still a world far away waiting for him to explore.
In a dark environment, negative emotions breed inside.
He can't practice flesh and blood sacrifice here because there are no resources for him to practice.
If he forcibly practices flesh and blood sacrifice without resources, his body will eat his own energy and blood, and he will easily die suddenly.
Struggle day after day from now on.
Su Nian suffered unimaginable torture in his heart. He gradually recognized the reality and realized that he would probably never get out again.
While feeling disheartened, he lamented in his heart.
He thought that such a day would come.
After all, the journey cannot always be smooth sailing, and death is always present along the way.
Faced with life-and-death crises countless times, he could never escape in a narrow escape.
During this period, the body became increasingly weak, the lips became pale, and occasionally there was a brief coma.
Realizing that he might not be able to hold on any longer, Su Nian had an idea.
When this idea emerges in my heart, it burns like a fire.
Since you have to die, you must die well and contribute your final value to the future of the human race.
When the gray-skinned undead came to life again, Su Nian took the initiative to talk to him.
Finding that the gray-skinned undead beings ignored him, Su Nian began to change the domain language in an attempt to establish communication with them.
After changing more than ten domain languages in succession, he changed to a language in the demon world:
"Hey, can you understand what I'm saying?"
During this inquiry, the gray-skinned undead creature suddenly raised its head and looked at him, its eyes full of confusion, and it even forgot about the life above that was still bleeding.
"Are you... calling me?"
The voice of the undead being is very hoarse, and he speaks stumblingly, and he seems to be unable to master his native language.
"Yes, can we talk?"
"Gulu... To complete the master's mission, we can't... chat."
With that said, the undead being who called himself Gulu found that the blood slave above him was still bleeding, and immediately started to stop the bleeding in a hurry.
After a brief conversation, Su Nian discovered that although this undead being was very cruel in his methods, his mind seemed immature.
Su Nian did not speak again, but waited for Gulu to finish drawing blood and bring the twisted plant to feed, and then took the initiative to talk to him again.
This time Gulu did not refuse, but looked at him curiously, as if he did not understand why he could speak his own language.
Facing his series of questions, Gulu quickly left impatiently.
Realizing that he had acted too hastily, Su Nian was upset, but he knew that he still had a chance.
A few days later, Gulu came again to harvest blood.
After Gulu finished his work, Su Nian took the initiative and said:
"Gulu, let me tell you about the outside world. You have never been to the outside world, right?"
"Story?" Gulu asked curiously.
"Yes, I will tell you a story."
Hearing that Su Nian was about to tell a story, Gulu nodded stupidly, came to sit in front of him and hugged his knees, looking at him intently.
Seeing that Gulu was finally willing to contact him, Su Nian finally let go of his worries.
He knew that his first step had been successful.
Next, he began to tell many stories about his journey.
The forest giant field with blooming green plants, the thousand-meter peak covered by ice and snow, the flaming mountains flowing with lava...the scenes described are only secondary. During this period, he combined with human fairy tales to weave many interesting stories.
This made Gulu gradually become curious about the outside world.
Occasionally when there is no need to be busy, Gulu will take the initiative to come and sit in front of him and listen to him telling stories about the outside world.
As he gradually became familiar with it, Su Nian also learned from Gulu about the situation of the domain forces that imprisoned it.
Gulu didn't know the name of this domain. He only knew that the ethnic group he belonged to was called "Shuo Mu Clan".
This ethnic group has a very strict hierarchical system.
There are four levels in total.
