Si Qingxuan stared at the remains for two seconds in silence.

To be honest, this pair of bones doesn't quite fit his aesthetics.Whether it's its name or its talent, it gives people an ominous premonition - but at this point, Si Qingxuan can't help but pick and choose.

Thinking about it from another angle, back then he could even devour the Weeping Thrush, so what was a bone that had lost its flesh and blood?

He took a deep breath, and fixed his gaze on a certain point in the void—a thick, silver-white, transparent book appeared in midair, slowly opened its title page, and frost shone from every corner of the page. Light as white as snow.

"The root...collection."

Si Qingxuan murmured, as if the book had received some kind of order, countless chains extended from the center of the page—passed through the glass cover in front of him without any hindrance, and bound the book without any mistakes. A horrible skeleton, and drag it out.

Si Qingxuan looked at the Illusory Realm library and groaned as he pulled the skeleton into his own pages.The moment the skeleton approached the page, it became twisted and shrunk, and finally turned into a faint black shadow, which got into the book.

The appearance of a strange creature wearing a white cloak and extending black claws slowly emerged on the pages of the book.

At the same time, Si Qingxuan could feel the joy and encouragement of the fantasy library system.

The familiar electronic noise rang in Si Qingxuan's ears, buzzing... buzzing..., and then, a force reattached to him——

[Salute to the traveler who travels through time, space and dreams, the stars are your journey; praise the supreme primordial Lord of Yuanyue, destruction is rebirth! 】

After a long period of compliments, the system exaggeratedly opened its mouth and greeted Si Qingxuan:

【I'm back!High Priest! 】

[I'm so touched, I'm really touched, woo woo woo.You work so hard!As soon as I woke up, there was an S-level root and talent engraved in the library-oh my god, am I really not dreaming? 】

Si Qingxuan: "..."

Si Qingxuan breathed a sigh of relief, the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously, but his tone was still cold and indifferent: "If you want to go on strike and sleep, I won't stop you."

【Don't!People love to work!Long live work! —By the way, High Priest, where are we now? 】

Si Qingxuan turned his head, glanced at the collections piled up in the room, and said, "This is the storage of Si Ling Pavilion. In layman's terms, it's all my property."

The system did not speak for a long while.

I don't know if I didn't react, or I was dazzled by the great joy... In short, it froze.

[... Let's go shopping, shall we? 】The system's voice contained uncontrollable excitement, 【Can I pull all of these into the library? 】

"Enough is enough." Si Qingxuan said, "It's reasonable to lose one or two collections. I can use my authority to forcefully suppress them. But if you devour all the collections here... I'm afraid the Siling Pavilion will be destroyed tomorrow." B."

System: [Why? 】

Si Qingxuan raised his eyebrows, with pure joy flowing in his eyes: "Of course it's because - they will be afraid of being eaten by me."

System: [Okay.But how did you come to a place like this? 】

Si Qingxuan briefly explained the pollution situation in downtown Chongning and the purpose of his trip.

"If possible, we want to save people." Si Qingxuan said, "It is said that there are many survivors in this illusion."

[Liar.high priest.Let's get out of here quickly. 】The system said categorically, 【This neighborhood is full of the smell of shepherds... Among all the retinues of the ancient gods, only they will surround the territory with their aura like ignorant and uncivilized animals——and Wild animals use the smell of excrement to mark their territory in the same way.Moreover, they have a strong sense of territory: if they enclose this land, they will regard themselves as the absolute masters of this land.All intruders of unknown origin are shot to kill. 】

Si Qingxuan: "..."

[From this, it can be inferred that those survivors are probably completely cold now. 】The system said, 【There is still a [-]% probability that they are still alive—if this is the case, I don’t know whether to say they are lucky or unlucky...]

"How do you say it?" Si Qingxuan said, "Don't be so secretive."

[cough cough.There's still a [-]% chance - those pastors are preparing their ceremonies! 】The system raised its voice, and said, 【The ancient god believed by the pastors is the 'Lord of the Jungle Forest', and the name of the god is 'Slumbering Dark Green'.The Lord of the Jungle dominates and protects the creatures of the jungle, both plants and animals.And the pastors are the immediate family members of the Lord of the Jungle, managing believers of various races in the domain for God. 】

[In the cognitive concept of the pastor, there are two sacrifices that are the most important.One is a sacrifice to the lords of the dense forest to thank them for their respect for the forest; the other is a sacrifice to the source of life to look forward to their expectations for reproduction. 】

[They refer to these two sacrifices as the 'Dense Forest Festival' and - 'Original Moon Festival' respectively. 】

Si Qingxuan: "..."

He actually had an ominous premonition.

[Now I know why I advised you to run away? 】The system gloated and said, 【If you don’t want to see a group of half-human, half-beast shepherds rushing in front of you to flatter you, hoping to get your blessing of reproduction through scenes of self-blasphemy and pseudo-sexual intercourse--】

The corners of Si Qingxuan's eyes twitched violently twice.

"So, let me make sure of one thing first." He held his forehead and said, "The followers of the Lord of the Jungle don't belong to my hostile faction?"

【Does not belong.They are centrists.The old neutrality - the neutrality of the wall. 】

Si Qingxuan was speechless.

[Let’s get back to the topic, about those survivors. 】The system said,【Even if they didn't die, they would still be treated as sacrifices in the ceremony, and they would probably die even worse, the kind that would be disemboweled and made into human sacrifices... It would be better to give them a good time at the beginning. 】

It sounds like a primitive tribe.

Si Qingxuan nodded, and began to think about whether he should go into this muddy water or not.The Bureau of Prevention and Control dispatched Zhaolin, apparently determined to take back Chongning City.Perhaps, without him alone, the situation can be brought under control...?

【Ah, I seem to sense that there is still a 'root' that hasn't dissipated around here! 】The system suddenly said, 【How about we go and have a look~】

Hearing the system's suddenly rippling tone, Si Qingxuan had to temporarily put his calculations behind him.

Now that he's here, he still came in a team with a few kids... Although Si Qingxuan never claimed to be a man of integrity, he didn't want to leave them alone.

Gu Kai and the others are all too young, but they are also talented. In time, they can become high-level awakeners in the human group.Even from this perspective, Si Qingxuan was unwilling to give up on them.

While thinking this way, he walked towards the direction he sensed just now—he had sensed two roots that hadn’t completely dissipated before, one had been swallowed by him, and the other seemed to be buried in the corner of this room...

In the absolute silence, only the sound of his footsteps was very clear.

Suddenly, the system reminded him: [High Priest, take a look at the collection cabinet on the right. 】

Si Qingxuan's eyes subconsciously turned to the right.

It was a small booth.Inside is a scalpel that is as clean as new.

There is a nameplate in front of the booth.

The nameplate read: "Sanchez Bagot's Scalpel".The talent level is divided into A-level, named "transplantation".

If they felt right, the "root" was attached to the scalpel.

"Aren't the 'roots' usually attached to the bones?"

[There are always exceptions...]

Unless, this scalpel is closely related to Sanchez Bagot's talent, and this connection even surpasses the connection between his body and talent.

In other words, Sanchez Bagot mainly relies on this scalpel to display his talent.

"Transplantation..." Si Qingxuan silently raised his eyebrows as he recited the talent name.

[Transplantation, as the name suggests, is to transplant the characteristics of one creature into another. 】The system said, 【Here, I see there is an album next to the booth—you can go and see for yourself, and you will know what's going on. 】

Si Qingxuan walked to the side of the booth and picked up the thin album - the album was written in a foreign language, and it was an ancient hand-painted version.The cover is painted with a sphinx, the strokes are strict and regular, but lifelike, with a weird and strange vitality.

The first page of the booklet reads "The Circus Opens".Pages of hand-drawn drawings that followed showed what the circus had on display—very grotesque in the extreme.

The circus exhibits are not the usual animals like lions, tigers, monkeys or even bears.

What is shown in the atlas is mostly a mixture of humans and animals, and sometimes people can find traces of them in various legends:

A "human-faced eagle" with a human-headed eagle body.A "horse man" with a human head and a horse body.With a body and limbs similar to a deer, only a head similar to that of a human, a "deer man" who can walk upright... and so on.

It's hard to imagine a scene of these creatures gathered in a circus.

Si Qingxuan thought it was just a fictitious manual, but unexpectedly, he found clearly marked visit fees on the display pages of various creatures.

Is this circus real?

The content recorded in the manual, combined with Sanchez Bagot's so-called "transplantation" talent, gave Si Qingxuan a bad association.

【This circus really existed. 】The system said nostalgicly, 【Sanchez Bagot and his grotesque circus.At the beginning of the last century, in the era when civilization and barbarism were fighting each other, and science and ignorance were entangled, paganism and occultism ushered in the biggest development in the past 500 years-the awakened people at that time were all high-profile Very, it can be called a hundred flowers blooming.But even so, Sanchez Bagot's circus was once famous...]

While the system was talking, the scalpel in the display cabinet suddenly lit up.

A thin, pearl gray figure suddenly appeared in the dimly lit room.He is like a transparent ghost, exuding the breath of dust all over his body.

Suddenly, with a bang, there was an ear-piercing sound of glass shattering—with Si Qingxuan as the center, all the glass covers on all sides exploded, and the fragments emitted a sharp and dazzling light.

The scalpel left the display cabinet at some point and returned to the shadow.

The cold light flickered and came straight for Si Qingxuan's throat.
