Chapter 169: Butterfly effect

After the "Blast Furnace Oddity," no one else entered the Dragon’s Nest. The ice and snow giants were conquered by the Dragon King and became the majestic soldiers and loyal guards outside the Dragon’s Nest.

The towering giants stood in rows outside the arch, like ancient fierce beasts turned into ice sculptures, and just passing by would feel a sense of oppression.

It’s definitely impossible to break through.

Adventurers are well aware of the abilities of the ice and snow giants, which are not comparable to small monsters like the Cannibal Crab and the Fire Chicken. Especially in the northern ice and snow, they are a walking disaster.

It’s impossible to fight them, so the only option is to build good relationships and try to get something from the Dragon’s Nest. This is the inspiration that the Elf Lake treasure chest brings to everyone.

If the musk beetle is the darling of fragrance, then the split earthworm is a wild delicacy.

The earthworm’s gift failed to impress Pasha. It wasn’t interested in the earthworms. The power of the gloomy sun continued to be transmitted, and it slept and flew as it pleased, becoming stronger as time passed.

Although it didn’t eat the earthworms, Pasha used the power of the gloomy sun to turn some of the newly born split earthworms into gloomy descendants. These large earthworms can take care of the Dragon’s Nest and clear the ice and snow.

Adult split earthworms are transcendent creatures and are not affected. But before the split has transformed into two adults, they belong to ordinary life and can be transformed by the gloomy sun.

The gloomy earthworm’s surface was black, more robust than the ordinary split earthworm, with higher values and an additional "Gloomy Descendant" ability in the panel.

The gloomy sun transformed the gloomy descendants, but the snowmen were used for external sales.

Lu Yao could only say, "Impressive, Jimmy."

But then he thought again and felt that something was wrong.

Does the snowman have that kind of intelligence?

Apart from traditional skills, it is not a clear-headed and good at planning person, which is also the reason why the snowman is difficult to predict and guard against.

The snowman said, "This idea was thought up by the mayor."

Who is the mayor?

Lu Yao was confused.

Could it be that Jimmy also sought advice from Yao City and Salt City?

This doesn’t sound like something it would do.

The snowman staggered over to a big guy.

"This is the mayor of the Dragon’s Nest."

Lu Yao took a look.

Isn’t this the elder of the ice and snow giants?

What a mess of a title.

The elder has a certain wisdom. So when facing Sarina, it wisely submitted and preserved the giant clan.

"Great god, please forgive your humble disciple’s boldness..."

The elder knelt in the ice and snow, pious and respectful.

Lu Yao listened to Jimmy’s rambling and checked the elder’s words, finally clarifying the cause and effect.

The last time the "Elf God" descended on the northern new continent, trying to conquer all the ice and snow giants. Although it was quickly exterminated by Sarina and the Blood Knight dispatched by Lu Yao, it caused a strong impact on the elder of the giants.

The elder hoped to turn the giant clan into a vassal of the Dragon’s Nest. With the protection of the dragon and the snowmen, the giants would have a certain self-preservation ability even if they encountered heretical gods again.

The snowman immediately agreed.

Because it felt that the Dragon’s Nest would be more imposing with the giants guarding the gate, making people more interested in challenging it.

Then, the split earthworms were sent as gifts and offerings by the adventurers. The elder immediately discovered the special nature of these transcendent creatures and suggested cultivating and stockpiling them.

Pasha also needed to create some gloomy descendants, gradually evolving into its current appearance.

The entire northern continent is filled with gloomy earthworms.

At Pasha’s command, the gloomy earthworms would immediately split. Under the radiation of the gloomy sun’s power, their growth rate far exceeded that of the same group.

The earthworms are natural sentinels, lurking under every ice layer. Coupled with the ice and snow giants on the ground, any situation on this land can be immediately detected by the Dragon’s Nest.

After selling the earthworms, the Dragon’s Nest quickly became prosperous.

Tall and continuous ice walls were built around it, and outside the walls, magnificent dragon sculptures of various postures were erected.

Outside the Dragon’s Nest, there were towering fortresses and earthworm ranches, and inside the Dragon’s Nest, according to Jimmy’s ideas, the giants transformed it into warehouses, where boxes of gems, seashells, and gold were piled up.

Most importantly, because the Dragon’s Nest controlled the earthworm industry, many transcendent creatures became customers here.

The "Tyrant Whale Tailbone" was found in this way.

In this way, the Dragon’s Nest deviated from its original trajectory and set off a craze for earthworm breeding and trading, even affecting the number of transcendent creatures in the entire world.

Lu Yao found it somewhat amusing.

When he released the earthworms, he didn’t think so much, he just wanted to conduct an experiment, but he unexpectedly caused a far-reaching butterfly effect in the pixel world.

This is also one of the pleasures of the gods.

...

Lu Yao clicked on the next prompt.

The screen jumped to Salt City and landed on a small person wearing a wide-brimmed hat and carrying a package.

Fabiani remembered that he was the "Fly God’s" prophet from before. After witnessing the divine being being beaten, his worldview shattered, and he became an "oddity," then began to question life.

He actually created a new profession.

At this point, the "oddity" above Fabiani’s head had become the "Yao Clan." His personal panel also had a new ability and a new history.

...

"Archaeology"

Skilled in excavating and researching ancient relics and documents, and restoring and reconstructing them to obtain historical heritage and enhance wisdom.

...

"History"

Became an "oddity" at the age of 27.

Became an "archaeologist" at the age of 35, discovered the split earthworms when excavating ancient relics.

Became a member of the "Yao Clan" at the age of 36.

...

Lu Yao remembered that "oddities" have a certain chance of comprehending special abilities.

It seems that Fabiani has comprehended "archaeology." After gaining the new ability, the name "oddity" was consumed. Fabiani has now become a member of the Yao Clan, indicating that he has also become a believer.At this moment, Fabiani stood before a rectangular building in Salt City. The structure was surrounded by numerous stone pillars, with a stone platform in front, seemingly a special place.

Many pixelated figures stood beside Fabiani.

Among those Lu Yao recognized were the old merchant Li, the prophet Dorennunu, the hammer-wielding strongman Tonghai, and the commander Yanger.

The leader was Tonghai.

Somehow, he had become the new mayor.

Tonghai declared, "Citizens, I now announce that the Archaeological Museum, proposed by Mr. Fabiani, sponsored by Mr. Pawa and Mrs. Jodi, and hosted by the Citizens’ Council, is open from today and will be accessible to all citizens."

"Inside, many important relics from our past history are displayed, which will remain in Salt City as an eternal record."

"Now, please follow Mr. Fabiani’s steps and take a tour inside!"

Many citizens walked in curiously.

Lu Yao locked his view on Fabiani’s head.

The museum’s interior was simply arranged, with ancient artifacts placed on stone platforms, all roped off and encircled.

Here, Lu Yao saw many things that stirred his memories.

【Demon Black Bear Skin】

【The First Prophet Nonglai’s Stone Shovel】

【Shaman Hunter’s Staff】

【Astrologer Shahahan’s personally written "A Brief History of the Tribes" on parchment scrolls】

...

There was even a handwritten copy of 【Advanced Mathematics】, with thick parchment filling an entire bookshelf.

Many little figures stopped here.

"No one can understand the divine book even now..."

"Those things above, truly incomprehensible."

"After all, it’s the language and wisdom of the gods, beyond mortal understanding."

The pixelated figures sighed as they gazed out to sea.

Lu Yao couldn’t help but think.

Many years later, if the pixelated figures advanced on the path of mathematics, their descendants’ first understanding of this advanced math book would surely be an interesting reaction.

He took a sip of hot water and suddenly noticed that Fabiani was leading the visiting citizens into a special room.

"This is the 【Museum’s】 【Old Gods Exhibition Room】."

Fabiani said, "Inside are the statues of the old gods who fell after challenging God Yao. I have restored these statues based on the scenes of the divine battles and various records and oral accounts."

"Success and progress are worth remembering, as are failure and the end, which are also a precious heritage."

A dialogue box appeared above his head: "Only by recognizing the former strength of these old gods can one understand the divine might and wisdom of God Yao."

"Here, the fall of nine old gods is recorded, carrying the glory of the temple!"

Exclamation marks popped up above the citizens’ heads as they gathered in the exhibition room.

At that moment, a prompt popped up in the Simulator.

【Salt City has invented the museum.】

【A new wonder prototype available: Museum.】

【The knowledge of everyone in Salt City has been slightly improved.】
