"So, he is indeed marked as a native species, so this coping mechanism won't happen to him?"

"Strange, I am also a human, how could I trigger such a reaction?"

Looking at the fungal mats and succulents that were beaten and crushed, and then comparing them with the treatment of Hobart Xinta, Yang Sheng remained calm.

These whiplash look scary and disgusting, but they are actually not very strong, as evidenced by the fact that Hoba Xinta was able to cut them off with an ordinary iron weapon.

However, the purpose of the experiment had been achieved and there was no need to continue. He tried to take off the ring on his hand.

However, just when it was less than a millimeter away, the base of the index finger suddenly tightened, and with a "click", the copper shell of the ring shattered. The mass of matter in the core area grew and expanded at a speed he could not imagine, and countless needles extended from the surface, as if they were going to directly invade his skin.

Yang Sheng’s mental power has always been connected to it, and his reaction is also extremely fast.

With a loud bang, he did not have time to activate the protection of the iron suit, and a visible shock wave burst out from his body.

At the same time, a steel-strong energy shield was instantly formed along his skin.

The special substance that replaced the ring on his index finger made an unpleasant sound like sharp glass scratching on the surface of iron. Although it was blocked by the energy shield, it still tried to merge into Yang Sheng's body.

Yang Sheng snorted, his mind racing, and he immediately thought of a solution.

He instantly put away his "Divine Muscle Iron Armor", not caring about consumption or the clothes on his body, the magical energy in his body began to surge at a high speed, and within a few seconds his skin changed from normal to fiery red, and there was actually a faint red glow coming out.

A few meters away, Hoba Xinta felt the heat wave on his face, and his skin facing Yang Sheng felt a burning pain as if it was being roasted.

【Elemental body】.

The clothes on Yang Sheng's body also disappeared at the same time. After a puff of black smoke came out, his body further upgraded from a red state to gradually turn white, and the temperature increased further. It was so high that Hoba Xinta could not stand the heat radiating from him within a few meters, and he retreated more than ten meters before he stopped.

Clusters of flagella squirmed towards him, and before they touched his body they silently turned into a ball of ashes. Then the flagella surged as if endless.

Yang Sheng did not try to grab the special ring-shaped substance on his index finger, but continued to increase his magic output to enhance the skill effect of [Elemental Body]. However, this mass of substance was really tenacious and continued to grow from its original ring shape to the thickness of a ring.

Yang Sheng's mental power was always connected to it, and he also captured some information transmitted:

"...Biometric information determination..."

"…New Promoters…"

"……position……"

“…eat it…”

Yang Sheng was a little panicked at this time. His attention was not on this information, but on seeing that his countermeasures seemed to have no effect. He was hesitating whether to cut off his fingers... a new change occurred.

An even thicker tentacle appeared on his body in a entwined posture, and Yang Sheng recognized the aura - the giant octopus Optus in the fairy paradise in the space-time rift zone in the misty realm.

"what?"

As soon as the tentacles with the unique appearance of an octopus appeared, the special substance that was still proliferating and being absorbed in his hands seemed to be torn apart by an irresistible and majestic object, and shattered into countless tiny pieces. Before they could even fall to the ground, they were burned to ashes by the high temperature emitted by Yang Sheng in his incandescent state.

Then this tentacle appeared out of thin air like a flagellum, ignoring the high temperature on Yang Sheng's body, loosened the entanglement and used the reaction force to sweep away the flagella in all directions with one blow, and then disappeared.

There was a scent of the sea in the air.

Yang Sheng clenched his index finger, and the effect of [Elemental Body] quickly dissipated from his body... The red-incandescent state was okay, but the white-incandescent state was also a heavy burden on his body.

"First of all, I want to thank you on behalf of Emily, Laurel, Zoeys, and Nina..."

"Strange, I've done tests at the base before and thought it was just a blessing to increase the affinity of water elements and related spell effects, but I didn't expect it to be a big help at a critical moment..."

"It seems that I have to find time to go visit Him later..."

New flagella continued to emerge on the ground and the walls of the cave, but they had lost their target and were exploring in a daze and disorder.

0008

Yang Sheng has no hobby of walking his bird. After realizing his light body state, he directly and accurately put on another set of clothes.

On the ground and the rock walls, translucent flagella are still spreading outward.

Although it was no longer directed and posed no threat to him, it was not a suitable place for conversation.

He put on the "Divine Muscle Iron Battle Suit" again and activated the breath-eliminating function, but did not become invisible. Yang Sheng's body first floated up, and then flew smoothly towards Hobart's tower... The previous sweep of the octopus' tentacles only wiped out a large number of flagella, and did not hurt him at all.

Everything that was happening before his eyes was beyond imagination. Not to mention him, Yang Sheng was actually a little confused, if he was not the one being attacked.

Reaching out and picking up Hoba Xinta in his hand, Yang Sheng quickly flew away from this "flagella" area with him.

……

"Mr. Yang, what is going on?"

Just a few meters away from the edge area, Yang Sheng put down the Hobart Letter Tower and landed on the ground himself.

The white-haired young man, who had recovered, asked impatiently.

Yang Sheng didn't take off his uniform and shrugged:

"As you can see, the test of Mother Earth's treasure triggered its attack."

"Are those weird things attacks from Mother Earth?"

Hobart Xinta pointed in disbelief at the dense forest of flagella that was still swaying like seaweed a few meters away.

Yang Sheng nodded.

“But…but…but it is an almighty being, how could it…how could it…how could it use such a disgusting and weird attack method?”

Hobart Sinta seemed incoherent.

Yang Sheng could understand his current state: "He had long sanctified and deified the image of the Earth Mother. After witnessing the truth, the huge contrast between reality and ideal made him emotionally unable to accept it..."

Recalling his first experience of traveling through time, he felt that the true form of this "Mother Earth" might be an unimaginably huge insect...

"What do you think its true form is, and..." Yang Sheng recalled the "information" he had seen in his mind before, and said: "...The reason why I was attacked was not because

Because it recognized that I was not a native human, but because it called me an ascendant, this seemed to be its screening criteria, the criteria for screening food, so..."

He pointed to the "flagellar jungle" in front of him, where everything was thriving and vibrant.

This language is probably beyond the limit of Hobart Xinta's understanding. In his concept, Mother Earth is completely a being similar to a benevolent god. She will select humans according to certain standards and treat them as food. Even the most absurd novelist would not dare to write like this.

But he couldn't refute the scene before him... because it was the first time he witnessed this kind of flagellum attack. He even took advantage of the fact that it would not trigger the flagellum's warning and walked forward to turn over the stone at the bottom of a flagellum.

It was discovered that there were indeed some circular marks left on the stone, but these flagella, which were too thick for humans, grew out of thin air. The stone only had marks on the surface, and there were no bottomless holes under the stone.

"Oh, by the way, I'm very sorry, your ring is completely scrapped."

Before returning to the base, Yang Sheng said to Hoba Xinta.

"Ah, it's okay, it's okay. I still have other treasures from Mother Earth... but... I don't even know if I dare to use them now..."

Hobart Xinta seemed to be still frightened and turned his head to look at the scene in the distance.

Yang Sheng smiled and said, "From my point of view, you can use the treasures of the Earth Mother without any worries. First, you are still far from the standard for being selected. Second, there has been no relevant legends for thousands of years, which means that the Earth Mother rarely does this kind of thing. Maybe she is a bit picky."

Huoba Xinta smiled bitterly. These words seemed to comfort him, but why did he feel offended?

……

Yang Sheng brought a large amount of supplies and night elf units this time. Although it was not as convenient as in the magic world where he could just open the control terminal of the [base] and click to build like playing games, it was almost the same. The only difference was that the construction speed was extremely slow.

In that deep underground space, Yang Sheng established a [Dark Night Base]. Needless to say, the main buildings were basically drawn from various places in the Misty Realm.

It must be said here that the "Night Race", which can move on its own and whose facilities are mostly living units, is really convenient in this regard.

However, the ordinary world without magic is located in a dark underground environment. Apart from air and water, there are basically no available resources. This base relies entirely on special materials brought from the magic world to operate. Moreover, the generation of moon well water is extremely slow. It may not be possible to produce a cup of water in a day and a night. It is useless even if the [Moon Well Spring] in technology is enabled.

Fortunately, the investment in magic materials is just a drop in the bucket for Yang Sheng. He is not here to fight with others. The location of the base is very hidden. The output of [Moon Well] is low. A dozen [Ancient Guardians] can basically meet the daily placement needs. As long as the needs of [Elves] and a group of dark night building units can be met, there is no need to maintain the combat population.

When doing these things, he planned and designed them in the base through his "mobile phone", and the specific implementation was all handed over to the [Elf] to complete, so Hobart Xinta had no idea that Yang Sheng had another base outside this base.

The two stayed underground for a few days, and one day Yang Sheng brought him back to the surface.

Although Hobart Xinta was basically trustworthy, the cautious people still did not let him walk along the passage in person. They put on the "Divine Muscle Iron Battle Suit" and carried him out of the city drainage pipe.

As soon as he got to the ground, Hoba Xinta ran to a roadside telephone booth and made more than a dozen calls in succession before he finally settled everything that had happened during his disappearance.

His cover identity in the local area...well, actually his real identity is the operator of a small real estate company, managing all his own properties...to put it bluntly, he is a retired official who set up a small real estate company specifically to manage his own property.

As for his background as a vampire zombie, Dusk Star City was not the city where he first mingled. The gap between cities was sometimes even greater than that between countries, and it was unclear whether there was a concept of country in this world.

It had been several decades since he was wanted by the Mother Earth Club. The owner of the Mother Earth treasure did not have any special ability in terms of longevity, and did not even have any means of anti-aging. Even if those people who chased him back then were not all buried, they are now too old to walk. The wanted warrant for him has long been in name only.

Yang Sheng originally brought him up because he wanted to act alone, but since there was a local native who had lived long enough and had access to high-end resources, it was quite convenient to get information from him.

After thinking it over, they decided not to refuse Hobart Xinta's invitation. The two of them first came to a parking lot and found a car with a bunch of tickets stuck on the windshield wipers, which looked a bit like the T-type sedan from the Republic of China era.

Hoba Xinta didn't even look at the ticket, he stuffed it all into the toolbox, then politely opened the door for Yang Sheng, invited him to get in, and started the car like a professional driver.

"Mr. Yang, what are your plans next?"

"Please arrange a place for me to live first. Also, I need you to take care of my identity issue."

"No problem, leave it to me"

The car was the one he drove when he locked onto the alien demon's activity area and fought with it.

When he came out and passed by the newsstand, Yang Sheng subconsciously wanted to buy some newspapers, but then he remembered that he was illiterate here...

The scale of Dusk Star City was very large. When he had done a rough reconnaissance in mid-air, he had discovered that the city covered dozens of kilometers of land, so Huo Ba Xinta had driven for two hours before arriving downstairs of the residence he had prepared for Yang Sheng.

Of course, traffic jams are also partly to blame.

It was a high-rise apartment, or villa, with at most two or three residents on each floor. The usable area was definitely more than one thousand square meters, and there were two floor-to-ceiling windows. The floors themselves were relatively high, so one could stand in front of the glass and have a bird's eye view of half the city.

The sea and the port part of the city can be seen in the distance.

"Are you satisfied here, Mr. Yang?"

"Can"

"As long as you are satisfied, I will go to check in now. This is the key to the apartment. I have a spare key in my company. I will have someone send it to you later. There is also one at the security office downstairs. However, the security company here is professional, so you don't have to worry about them stealing from you."

Huoba Xinta introduced in detail and respectfully. After that, he bowed and took a step back. "Then I'll take my leave for now. I have to go back and tidy up my appearance. There are still some things I need to deal with. If you have any instructions, please call me."

……

After he left, Yang Sheng first took out his "mobile phone" and took a look at the progress of the base construction in the deep underground space.

The main buildings of the [base] are ready-made and were brought here in packages, so the main work in the base is to level the ground and upgrade various barriers and spell protection facilities.

In the ordinary world, [elves] cannot lick the ground like they can in the magical world, breaking up stones and soil and taking them away in a few licks, so they need to wander over the ground over and over again, slowly leveling the ground or filling holes and gaps in a grinding manner.

Although the [Elves] have no physical strength limits, their special abilities are not. Moreover, because the output of Moon Well water is extremely low, there is no way to quickly replenish it with Moon Well water. So although the [Base] is fully functional, the ground is still a mess and is only slightly better than the original natural landscape.

As for the operation of upgrading the facilities, it is to cover the exposed array patterns or magic symbols with inert materials without affecting their functions, just like wrapping electric wires with insulating materials. The advantage of doing so is that it can greatly reduce the daily natural dissipation rate of magic power in the entire [base].

If Yang Sheng did not intervene, these two items would be long-term jobs, with the wages calculated in months.

So he just checks the progress on a daily basis.

Then he was ready to start learning more about the world - starting with watching TV.

Television programs often have subtitles, but for news and variety shows, the subtitles often have little to do with the images, or may even be advertisements.

So Yang Sheng looked for TV series with subtitles.

The spoken and grammatical aspects of Chinese in this world were basically the same as what he knew. The only and biggest difference was that the Chinese characters were completely different.

For Yang Sheng, this language is not difficult to learn as long as he compares the corresponding characters.

Watching TV series is the best way to do this. It not only allows you to avoid exposing yourself as an illiterate, but also gives you a little understanding of local customs and culture.

But this idea was too idealistic. He admitted that he underestimated the lethality of the melodramatic TV series, especially the dialogue style full of interjections such as "oh", "roar", and "ah"... He said to himself over and over again:

“I’m doing this to learn…”

“I’m doing this to learn…”

“I’m doing this to learn…”

……

After watching the TV series for a long time, not only did the number of characters he mastered increase dramatically and he was already able to read and write them, but Yang Sheng also became quite angry.

Hobart Xinta took care of the affairs at hand and also found servants and cooks for him. Although it felt a bit strange, it seemed to be standard in this world, so Yang Sheng naturally followed suit.

And the chef’s skills are pretty good.

Yang Sheng had dinner with Hobart Xinta. There were only two of them at the table and the servants had all been sent away.
