The Death Knell

As expected of a famous ancient god, Set is also one of the demon gods most closely connected with the main world. He is really smart.

Even though he most likely didn't guess what method Deathstroke used to track him, he did use his own methods to avoid being followed.

When his serpent crown is worn by some fools on earth, those unlucky ones who think they are lucky automatically share their knowledge with the snake god.

To put it simply, it is the experience of those people living in human society, as well as most of the skills that are relatively easy to operate.

For example, if someone is good at barbecue, after wearing the snake crown, the skill of barbecue is automatically shared with the snake god. This is not a superpower of the body, so Seth can master it without activating Devour to eat the pigs he raises.

But if someone shares the knowledge of flying an airplane with the snake god, then Seth may have the corresponding theoretical knowledge, but if he really wants to fly an aircraft, 80% of the time it will crash.

Skills that are too practical will not work, knowledge that is too high-tech will not work, knowledge related to human nature and human social psychology will not work, etc...

Seth's devouring method is indeed very powerful, but it is not omnipotent. .

"Fake death...how did he do it?" asked Polaris, who was supporting his sister.

Because Wanda had been competing remotely with Sisun all the way, she basically said nothing, and she looked like she was sweating profusely.

"Because he is a snake." Harley had already guessed the answer. She had a biologist as her best friend, so she knew something: "Snakes are characterized by having scales, strong appetites, and can swallow food eight times larger than themselves. prey, and the most important thing is, pay attention, da da! They are cold-blooded animals."

Little Jelly Bean grabbed Polaris's hand and counted on one finger for her when she asked for an item. For some reason, she made a rock'n'roll gesture, and she suddenly laughed again, as if she was amusing herself.

Deathstroke nodded affirmatively, and while he let Strangler pass through the manhole cover above his head to see the road conditions on the other side of the battlefield, he said to the women:

"Yes, the last point is very important. Snakes are cold-blooded animals and they can hibernate. Have any of you ever seen a hibernating frog? Does it look like it's dead?"

"You mean... when we were chasing him, he found a place to sleep." Diana took a deep breath and tightened the weapon in her hand: "How is this possible? He is not the kind of enemy who can sleep on the battlefield and is not afraid of death at all. He was running away just now."

Whether the enemy is strong or not is another matter, but Xiao Dai despises the opponent's courage.

"It is actually possible. Seth's magic allows him to fight against the cold in any environment, but if he does not fight and instead allows his body to cool down, his snake instinct will naturally make him fall into a deep sleep. "

Su Ming smiled and patted Xiao Dai's arm. He answered like this, then controlled the cloak to become invisible and crawled back to the ground from the sewer. He took everyone to hide behind a ruins to watch the battlefield a thousand meters away:

"People often cannot resist biological instincts, so Seth, who also has a body of flesh and blood and has always been addicted to the desire of mouth and tongue, is naturally the same. We are all material existences, and we are all dependent on material. Eating, drinking, sleeping, eating, drinking, sleeping are most carbon-based The commonality of living things.”

"Okay, I probably understand." Diana bit her lip. She stretched her neck and looked at the street, and then asked: "Don't say so much, just tell me how to find the enemy next."

When the death knell spreads her hands, Xiao Dai has a rather impatient temper. Although she can make correct judgments most of the time, she will occasionally be affected by adrenaline and lose her calm.

"As mentioned before, Seth most likely used the low temperature environment to put himself into hibernation to avoid being hunted by feigning death. In the current environment, where does the low temperature come from?" Su Ming used leading questions to guide her to find out on her own, and also pretended to He waved his hand to Waitress Gwen who raised her hand to stop talking.

Diana had just seen the situation on the battlefield, and naturally thought of some clues at this time:

"It's those monsters. Some monsters have ice-type energy. They can spit out freezing fog or ice and snow to attack the God Eater."

"By the way, creatures that are good at frost abilities have some common characteristics." Deathstroke nodded while holding a cigarette in his mouth, smiling and turning his palms, letting her continue to think along this line of thinking: "In appearance, they look... ..”

"They all have long white hair or blue gelatinous skin." Diana smiled. She knew she had found the answer. Although it was under the guidance of a man, it also gave her a warm feeling of cooperation.

"Yes, these first-generation demons we see are actually ancient gods born on the earth. They were just ordinary animals a long time ago, and they became extraordinary because of various opportunities."

Deathstroke also gave Diana a box of chocolates. She rolled her eyes before taking it, as if to show that she was not a little girl. Su Mingquan pretended not to notice and continued:

"It's often animals that live in cold areas that have ice abilities, and creatures that live in magma that have fire abilities. Their past living environment is often linked to their current ability attributes."

"Due to natural selection and adaptive evolution of organisms, organisms living in cold areas often have thick fur. Wild beasts have no emotions or morals, and devouring each other is very popular. If they want to survive, they will evolve camouflage color, then living in the world of ice and snow, this camouflage color is white or gray.”

Waiter Gwen interrupted again. It was difficult for her not to speak. She just couldn't control her mouth and hands.

Su Ming was not angry because she added drama to him, and rubbed her head happily: "Yes, there are probably tens of thousands of demons besieging the God Eater now. We only need to pick out the gray or white ones among them. It’s long-haired, I’m sure Seth is hiding in the long hair and enjoying the air conditioning.”

I have to say that this is indeed a good idea. Seth made himself smaller and hibernated in other people's hair. The God Eater will indeed eat other demons, but there is so much food here, and he will most likely not eat fur.

In this way, as long as the snake god stays asleep, when Sithorne either loses with Deathstroke or breaks through the magic blockade, Seth will decide his own action based on the situation.

It's quite smart. If it were anyone else today, they might not be able to catch it.

But Su Ming had already seen through the other party's plan.

Because Seth actually has no choice. If he doesn't cover up his thoughts and traces of life, he will be discovered by Harley; if he does, he will be deduced from the methods he uses, so that he can see through the secret of hibernation and find his hiding place. place.

"The number is a bit large, and the scene is very chaotic. Isn't there an easy way to find the white-furred monster?" Squirrel Girl also swung her big tail and poked her head out to take a look, and then retracted while touching her front teeth. , she wanted a simple solution, not the current needle in the haystack.

"Of course you don't need anyone to do this kind of thing. Adjutant, put some marks on my retina." Deathstroke smiled and gave the answer. He has a butler: "Select all the demons that meet the screening criteria. Regardless of whether it has the ability to use ice or not, as long as it has white fur, it will be marked."
