Chapter 1317: They Are, Puppet Snakes
"You have star flames? How much do you have?" Negris asked curiously.
The little fire person was the consciousness of the God Star, but it couldn't control the God Star now. How much star flame it could mobilize was still an unknown quantity. If it had the ability to mobilize the God Star's power, it would have killed the Guman Vine long ago, so it wouldn't have needed the little angel's help.
"I have, this much!" The little fire person opened his arms wide, and a large lump of star flames manifested from his embrace.
Anthony hurriedly said: "You have the heart, you have the heart. Keep it for yourself. We accept your good intentions."
If the Star Flame Giant Meburg was 0.7 equivalents, the little fire person had at most 0.1. The quantity was too small. Even if it was all given to Ang, it would be exhausted after pointing out the star-shifting ability of seventeen or eighteen Star-borns, which was meaningless.
However, Anthony still appreciated the little fire person's good intentions. It seemed that it got along very well with the little zombie and the little angel, because only when they got along particularly well would it take the initiative to help their family and companions.
"Oh." The little fire person hugged hard, and a large lump of star flames was collected into his body. It was really hard to see how he stuffed such a large lump of star flames into his small body.
Then he said again: "I know, where, there are star flames, vine, hidden."
Everyone was energized. Negris asked: "Star flames hidden by the Guman Vine?"
Ursman suddenly asked: "Why did the Guman Vine hide the star flames?"
Everyone subconsciously looked at the little fire person. The little fire person tilted his head blankly: "Don't know, I feel, star flames, are there."
Ursman hurriedly said: "I'm not asking it. I'm organizing my thoughts. Why did the Guman Snake hide the star flames?"
Anthony immediately followed Ursman's train of thought and said: "Keep it for other times? Keep it for others to use? Hoarding habit? Like to hide good things?"
Silver Coin raised his hand to add: "Sell for money and exchange for goods?"
Only then did everyone understand what Ursman wanted to say. Luther asked suspiciously: "Can star flames be sold for money and exchanged for goods?"
"Now the Guman Snake isn't using star flames as money to exchange for a way to mark Geburg? In essence, it is a commercial behavior," Anthony said.
"Since star flames can be used as money, the application of star flames should be very extensive, and everyone is willing to accept it. But this is different from the situation I observed. I have been collecting business information nearby for this period of time, and I haven't found that everyone uses star flames as money, and even star flames don't circulate in the market at all," Silver Coin said.
Anthony asked: "You mean, this is something that circulates at a higher level?"
Silver Coin nodded. In the Main Plane, besides magic crystals, gold, silver, and copper coins, there were several things that could be used as money, among which were "bearer IOUs" issued by major organizations and countries. Holding such an IOU, anyone could go to the corresponding organization to exchange for the corresponding amount of currency.
Many organizations would issue similar IOUs, but based on reputation and ability, the ones that circulated the most widely were those issued by the Mercenary Guild, the Mage Guild, and the Goblin Merchant Association.
Actually, there was an organization with stronger strength and more people who trusted it, and that was the Church of Light. However, they had Indulgence Coupons. This kind of currency that didn't need to be redeemed and only eliminated sins was easier to sell than any IOU.
Star flames were not seen circulating but could be used as money. It was obviously a high-level item that circulated in a small range. Without reaching a certain level, even if one got star flames, one wouldn't know how to use them.
Then what did the Guman Snake hide star flames for?
This was the train of thought of a wise man like Ursman. Anthony's train of thought was: "Where is it? Is there a lot? Are there many guards? Let's go, let's go rob it."
"Right, let's go chop it. Wait for my true body," the Monarch said excitedly.
The Monarch's true body couldn't virtualize and could only fly slowly. However, there was one advantage now: his Star-born clone was here, so his true body could borrow the clone to anchor the position and tear through space to drill over time and time again.
This was an extremely dangerous move for many space mages. Back then, the Big Cat, a dignified Dimensional Beast, took Xiludi and didn't dare to step into the dimensional space too much.
Now the Monarch actually broke in hard time and time again, then was bounced out, broke in hard again, and was bounced out again. Repeating this, all dimensional rifts, spatial turbulence, etc., were ignored.
You have to know that those spatial turbulences smashed Du Luo Ken's life box with one hit, but for the Monarch, it was equivalent to scratching an itch. He traveled from the Boundless Great Void to the Ancestor Cemetery this way, and now he used the same method to rush here.
"No need, no need. How can such a small matter need the Majesty to take action? Majesty, it is best for your true body not to take action for the time being, otherwise, if the Guman Snake is desperate, it might go to extremes," Anthony hurriedly said.
Anthony's mission... the mission was the little angel's, but since she was Ang's own child, her business was Ang's business, and Ang's business was Anthony's business. In the end, Anthony still had to find a way.
The little angel's mission was to help the little tree person break free from the Guman Snake's restraint. This was obviously not something that could be solved by force. Now the Guman Snake had encountered the first crisis and was seeking help everywhere. If another Star Skeleton came, in despair, it might produce the idea of "if I can't get it, I'll destroy it" and ruin the Ten Thousand Worlds God Tree, which would be troublesome.
The little tree person and the little fire person were one. To hatch the God Star consciousness, a healthy Ten Thousand Worlds God Tree was needed. Now the Ten Thousand Worlds God Tree was unhealthy, and the little fire person couldn't control the God Star. If the God Star couldn't hatch consciousness, it wouldn't be a true God Star. One hair moved the whole body, so one couldn't chop randomly.
"So troublesome," the Monarch said irritably: "If I can't chop people, then I won't come."
"Majesty, you are our strongest combat power now. Don't take action easily." After appeasing the Monarch, Anthony turned to the little fire person and said: "Let's go, take us to the place where the Guman Snake hides the star flames. We will rob all the star flames and see what it uses to give the bounty."
The little fire person covered his head with the little zombie, wrapped the little tree person inside, and pointed in a certain direction with his finger.
Everyone followed his instructions, moved forward along the branches, and came to the trunk.
Walking down along the trunk, leaving the canopy, and entering the trunk area without leaves, the guards gradually increased. By the time they came to the area where Orit dug white crystals before, they were already unable to move an inch.
"Why are there so many guards? I see several Guman Snakes, just a circle smaller. Could it be that there is more than one Guman Snake?" Negris asked frantically.
"It might be because of Geburg. The power of the Guman Snake has been fully mobilized. As for those, they might be the children of the Guman Snake," Anthony said.
Ang, who had been silent and focused on fiddling with the spacetime chessboard, suddenly looked up and said: "They are, Puppet Snakes."
