Chapter 604 Prometheus
Dugu Bo thought it was a very strange thing that humans in this abyss ruins could produce white flutes similar to the soul bones of soul beasts in the outside world after their death.
But in the eyes of Zhou Qing, a time traveler, the most bizarre thing is that soul beasts would explode soul bones similar to human bones, which is common knowledge in the soul master world of Douluo Continent.
The humans in the Abyss Ruins can offer sacrifices just like the hundred thousand year soul beasts. Perhaps this is just due to the influence of the rules for soul beasts added by the Dragon God or the other gods in the God Realm in the Douluo Plane.
"Zhou Qing! Romantina!"
As soon as I walked into the gate of the steel base, a familiar girl's voice came from not far away.
It was Riko and the bunny girl.
Next to the two of them, there was a white-haired, round-faced girl wearing a white-green dress, a pair of dark green gloves, and a round dark green hat on her head? Or was it a helmet?
"To be honest, if it weren't for the different hair color, eye color, and clothes, I wouldn't be able to recognize who is who." Dugu Bo looked at Riko on the left, and at the white-haired girl on the right, especially since both of them had a healing face, which made him a little at a loss for a moment.
Although A-Bo and the students he led also had round, cute faces, when it came to girls—
Anyone who is not a heartless person will feel a little sympathy for them.
"Huh? Are you just the two of you?" When she got closer, Rico realized that the only people who came were Zhou Qing and Romantina, with no sign of Tang San, Xiao Wu, or Wang Sheng.
"They are busy and can't come." Zhou Qing explained briefly, and after introducing Dugu Bo to Riko and the bunny girl, his eyes fell on the girl in green, "Is this... the new explorer from Abyss Town?"
"Hello."
The girl in green smiled sweetly and introduced herself to Zhou Qing, "My name is Prometheus, you can call me Mithras. I was born on the fourth floor, and because I can't bear the curse of ascension, I have never been to the upper floors. Sandyin is my father."
Sandin's daughter?
Zhou Qing's eyes became serious.
Recalling what Sandin said before, could the Prometheus in front of him be the so-called "reserve" of Bai Di?
If this is true, Sandin's moral bottom line is much lower than he imagined.
And the name Prometheus...
"Hello." Zhou Qing also introduced his and Romantina's names to Mithras.
"Zhou Qing, Romantina, welcome to the fourth floor."
After saying this, Mithras actually took Zhou Qing and Romantina's hands and led them to the residential area inside the steel base, where he allocated three empty rooms for them.
Then, she led the three people, as well as Riko and the bunny girl, to the kitchen, and skillfully operated the soul-guided stove, making fire, washing rice, cutting vegetables, and cooking, quite skillfully.
After a while, pieces of delicious steaks were served.
"What kind of flesh is this?"
Seeing that Rico and the bunny girl had already started eating, Zhou Qing did not pick up his knife and fork immediately, but asked Mithras.
"Bird horse meat. There is a bird horse farm on the first floor. Every once in a while, a large amount of bird horse meat will be sent down." Mithras stopped the knife and fork in his hand and introduced it to Zhou Qing, with a hint of yearning for the higher level on his face.
Like the other Abyssians, Mithras was also an explorer, with a black whistle hanging around his neck, a black flute. But unlike the Abyssians, Mithras did not want to go down, but wanted to go up to see the outside world.
After learning that it was horse meat, Zhou Qing felt relieved to taste it, but Romantina had already started eating.
Dugu Bo?
He is not afraid of poison at all.
"Riko, you should know that being friends with Mithras is part of Sandone's plan, right?"
After the meal, Mithras took the dishes and went to the outside sink to wash. Romantina couldn't help but ask Riko about her doubts, "He just wanted to do an experiment!"
"I don't want to either... but Mithras has always been alone, which is very pitiful." Li Ke lowered her head. "Besides, no matter what, Mithras is also Sandin's daughter. He won't harm his own daughter..."
Romantina didn't know what to say about Riko's naivety, so she looked at the bunny girl.
"Don't look at us."
The bunny girl ate barbecue and scratched her head. "This place is not big, but not small either. Even if we try to avoid her, we will run into her. Besides, Mithras doesn't talk much to Sandin. He doesn't act like a father at all. He spends most of his time doing experiments."
Zhou Qing could also see that, although these two people were alert, their alertness was not high. Moreover, one was a bunny girl who had lost her best friend, and the other was an innocent girl. Both of them could not stand loneliness, and would instinctively get close to people who showed kindness to them.
Perhaps, only a harmonious town like Abyss, which is free from conflict with the world, can nurture people with such pure personalities as Riko and the bunny girl.
"This time, we came here to explore the bottom of the abyss ruins. By the way, I'll bring you some words from A'bo. He told you not to worry about his life. He is, as usual, personally teaching students how to become a qualified explorer..." Zhou Qing told Liko about A'bo's situation.
"Abo is still the same! I thought he would suddenly feel uncomfortable without me." Liko looked up at the dome on the fourth floor of the windowsill, and a faint curve appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"By the way, can you tell us about the situation on the fifth to seventh floors, what kind of damage will be incurred when ascending, and what strange creatures there are?"
When Li Ke came to her senses from her nostalgia, Zhou Qing asked about it again.
"This one... um~"
Just as Riko was about to say something, the bunny girl sitting next to her covered her mouth, and she could only make a grunting sound.
“By the way, you’re not going to get the relevant information out of Riko and then go down by yourself without taking us with you?” The bunny girl had a faint smile on her face, but a hint of doubt was revealed in her big eyes.
[Hey! You are wary of us! ]
Seeing that Li Ke didn't say anything at this time and just kept staring at him, Zhou Qing could only say: "This is for your safety."
"As an explorer, I'm not afraid of danger!" Li Ke said confidently, "Besides, I'm your guide. I've received your money, so I have to complete the job!"
Seeing this, Zhou Qing no longer insisted and promised the other party that he would not abandon her... This made Liko smile again.
She is an optimist. Even if others deceive her or attack her, as long as they apologize to her, she will be forgiven and receive that pure and innocent smile.
[Do you really want to take her with you? ]
Romantina took the initiative to start a mental group chat.
[What else? And we really need a guide! Besides, with the old monster here, safety is absolutely guaranteed! ]
