Chapter 1736 Hiding Identity
After hearing this, Liu Xing began to suspect that the Isco brothers were actually the Wilbur brothers in the Dunwich incident. Among them, the big Isco was responsible for showing up outside like the big Wilbur. In the end, because of a certain The life and death of this incident are unknown, and this little Isco has always been hidden in the dark, letting others know that a person like "him" exists, but no one has seen his true face.
After all, little Isco should look as inhuman as little Wilbur.
Therefore, combined with the fact that New Ains Town is located near Arkham City in New Marseille, Liu Xing felt that he had reason to suspect that Big Isko might have led the Morel brothers to find trouble with Miskatonic University in an attempt to obtain Miskatonic University. A certain magic book collected by Miskatonic University. As a result, they were definitely unable to defeat the professors and watchdogs of Miskatonic University, so they directly played GG.
Of course, Liu Xing also suspected that Isco might have died on the spot, but after learning that his brother and the rest of the Morel brothers were gone, in order to complete the goal that they had not achieved, Isco He sneaked out of the town of New Ains, and then did some things in the name of Isco, thus creating the illusion that Isco was still alive; after all, Isco was also famous, and he was The reason why he has been hiding at home and not showing up must be that his reputation is not known, and he is even suspected of being a "person" like himself.
Therefore, instead of trying to make a name for himself again, it is better to replace his brother's "account" directly. This way, he can also contact some old friends more conveniently, because the word "tea cool" is not just a talk.
But having said that, why did the two Isko brothers come to the Morrel family?
The movie goes on.
Carter took another sip of wine before continuing: "There are still many theories about how the Morel brothers disappeared. In short, it is certain that the Morel brothers were with a group near Arkham City. The mysterious man fought against each other, and was finally defeated because of the defeat. However, because the scene was very chaotic, the faces of those who fell on the ground could not be clearly seen. We could only compare their clothes and the items they carried with them. The distinctive scars and birthmarks confirmed the identity, so in the end it was confirmed that the Morel brothers were almost wiped out!"
"The reason why we can be so sure is that each of the Morel brothers will have a special symbol tattooed on their arms. It looks like there is an extra eye in the five-pointed star..."
Before Carter finished speaking, Liu Xing subconsciously pressed the pause button, because the tattoo of the Morel brothers was obviously an old mark!
But here comes the question, why did the Morel brothers get the old seal? It stands to reason that Isco should be the initiator and leader of the Morel brothers, so it is unlikely that he would let all of his own people wear the old seal. After all, the old seal is used to disgust mythical creatures and the old rulers. , and this big Isco can be regarded as a half-mythical creature?
I'm a little confused.
Liu Xing shook his head and could only wait to see what Carter would say next.
"At least in our new Marseilles state, no one except the Morrel brothers will get this kind of tattoo, and this tattoo will also add or remove certain patterns depending on your status among the Morrel brothers. For example, for outsiders who later joined the Morrel brothers, their tattoo lines were intermittent and were not directly connected. If these people were approved by the Morrel family, then the tattoo lines would be completely connected. And when they go one step further, they will add the finishing touch like the children of the Morel family, making the eye in the tattoo red."
"As for the eldest of the Morrel brothers, Morrel Jacks, the patriarch of the Morrel family at the time, would also add a small crown to his tattoo, while Isco would have his tattoo blackened. Five corners were found; because no one found Isco's unique tattoo at the scene, some people believed that Isco was the only Morrel brother to escape. But the problem lies in a certain tattoo on the ground. Some people suffered a certain degree of burns, so some people who were similar in size to Isco could no longer tell whether they had tattoos, so some people thought that Isco was one of them."
"In addition, the Morrel brothers also like to modify their weapons, especially plating them with gold and silver. In short, each one is more fancy than the other. At the same time, they also leave their names on the weapons, which also makes these weapons become became more valuable, so under normal circumstances the Morrel brothers would not abandon their weapons; as a result, the people cleaning the battlefield discovered a large number of weapons belonging to the Morrel brothers, including Jacks and Dayi. Sco’s exclusive weapons, and most of these weapons are relatively intact, so there is no possibility of giving them up voluntarily.”
"Finally, and most importantly, for the Morel brothers, or for all the people on this continent, their most important wealth and companions - horses are nearby! You must know that this weapon can be thrown , but horses can’t be lost. After all, except for some big cities with railways, if you want to go out in other places, you have to rely on horses to travel. And for the Morell brothers, who are causing trouble everywhere and licking blood from their swords. For them, the most precious thing they have is their mount! After all, if the mount is not good, they will not be able to achieve such a big reputation, because patrollers are not just for free."
"So after the first operation, the Morel brothers used all their money to exchange for a group of good horses. Most of these horses were bought from overseas. After all, everything is good in Liga continent, but there is a lack of excellent horses. You should also know that if a large animal like a horse wants to cross the ocean, it will escape death if you are not careful. Therefore, the price of these sweat-blooded BMWs is not low! Therefore, these BMWs under the Morel brothers were produced in New Marseille. After all, apart from them, there were only some wealthy people who kept one or two horses at home, so if you saw a group of people riding good horses on the road back then, you could be sure that these people were Morrel. brother!"
"Of course the most important thing is that horses are spiritual animals, so after getting along with them for a long time, you will definitely regard them as your own family. Especially for the Morel brothers, these horses have been with them for many years. , so they take very good care of their horses. They usually give their horses the best living conditions after returning to New Ains Town. As a result, the people cleaning the battlefield found many horses belonging to Morell nearby. Brothers’ horses, so under normal circumstances the Morel brothers would definitely ride away their own horses when escaping, so everyone thinks that the Morel brothers have been wiped out this time.”
At this point, Carter frowned, "I know you are more curious about the situation of the Morel brothers, but I have to say that the mysterious people who fought against the Morel brothers are also very special. Although they also left behind many People, but these people have obviously been treated. Simply put, they poured a bucket of oil and lit a fire, so there is nothing special about these people at all; however, as far as I know these people There were no weapons left behind, and of course no accessories or anything like that... But that’s not the point. The point is that I have a buddy who is a professor of medicine at the only university in Arkham City, Miskatonic University.”
When Carter said the words "Miskatonic University", Liu Xing's heart was not disturbed at all, because this was already within Liu Xing's expectation.
However, Liu Xing noticed a detail in the movie, that is, the expressions of Yin En and Ao Ling did not change at all when they heard Carter mention "Miskatonic University". It seemed that they did not know about Miskatonic University. Because of the real situation, Miskatonic University was regarded as an ordinary university.
"My buddy went over to help because his father-in-law was the patrol chief of Arkham City, so if such a big thing happened outside the city, someone must have been on the scene. And my buddy happened to be having dinner at my father-in-law's house at the time, so he was arrested They pulled us together; there was no one who could move at that time, so my buddy was naturally useless as a hero, so his father-in-law let him move around freely, so he went to check out a mysterious Man, he found out that this mysterious man is a little different from us humans. To put it simply, he has a few more bones!"
At this time, Ao Ling said subconsciously: "I know this. I heard that people in different regions may have differences in the number of bones, but it seems that the difference is only two pieces at most, right? Because people in different regions live in different The environment, so over time, certain bones will be different."
As a doctor, Liu Xing couldn't help but nodded.
"Yes, there are certain differences in the number of bones between people in different regions. Of course, even in the same region, people with the same living conditions may have this difference! For example, 90% of people in New Marseille Adults have 206 bones, while the remaining 10% of people have 204 bones! At the same time, the two bones that are different are not very important toe bones. From the appearance, It won’t make any difference.”
Hearing that Ao Ling also knew this knowledge, Carter immediately became energetic, "So this is actually quite normal, because we humans have more than 300 bones when we are born, and as we As we grow up, certain bones in our bodies will fuse together, and eventually there will be only these two hundred bones left; but the problem is that those mysterious people have several extra bones, and they are concentrated in the hands. , so after completing the restoration, my buddy discovered that these mysterious people have very long fingers!"
Hearing what Carter said, Liu Xing's eyes suddenly became sharp. This was not because Liu Xing guessed that the mysterious person in Carter's mouth was a mythical creature such as a ghoul, so their fingers were so long, and they were also The companion was completely changed beyond recognition. After all, this was not something ordinary people could see casually.
There's something wrong with this Carter.
Liu Xing could tell from Carter's words that he also had some research in medicine, because for ordinary people, they can only remember that the human body generally has about two hundred bones, and some people may have more. Two bones were produced. As for the specific number and location of these bones, who would remember so clearly? Anyway, this is not usually needed.
Secondly, human beings do have more than 300 bones when they are born, and they continue to fuse as humans grow and develop. This is unknown knowledge to most people, but Carter found it at his fingertips.
Of course, it is normal for an author to know a lot of trivial knowledge. After all, these are writing materials. That is why some people now joke that online novel writers know everything because they are rigorous in the writing process. In order to prevent readers from finding faults, I will flexibly use various search tools when encountering some unclear points, so as to know various cold knowledge that is of little use.
but!
According to the usual movie routine, the person who comes out to chat with the protagonists and has so many lines at the same time is definitely not a passerby character, so Liu Xing suspects that this Carter's buddy is called Carter! The reason why Carter moved to New Ains Town was probably because those "mysterious people" aroused his curiosity. Then the only clues he could collect were the Morell brothers, so he could only follow the clues. This clue came to the town of New Ains, trying to find out the true identity of these mysterious people.
But according to what the bartender said before, this Carter has been in New Ains for more than ten years, and it has been about twenty years since the destruction of the Morel brothers, so something should have happened during this time. , which led Carter to come to New Ains Town.
Maybe it has something to do with Isco?
If Carter is really a professor at Miskatonic University, then he may indeed have met Isco Jr., so after knowing that Isco Jr. was related to the Morel brothers, he recalled those mysterious people, So in order to find out the truth of all this, Carter came to New Aines Town?
This makes sense.
But Yin En and Ao Ling don't seem to have discovered this yet.
"In short, my buddy is a little suspicious that the Morrel brothers kicked the iron plate this time, so they ended up being wiped out! And what they provoked may not be humans, but the legendary lizard people!"
As soon as Carter said this, there were exclamations one after another in the cinema. It seems that there are also legends about lizard people in this parallel world.
"Lizard people? I've heard of this too. Their history seems to be as old as the Liga continent." Yin En frowned and said: "But these lizard people are not friendly to us humans, so they often attack passers-by in the dark, and even We will also take action against some small towns with small populations!”
