Chapter 268: Steve Chapter 265
After conducting some tests, Fang Mo roughly grasped the characteristics of these villagers.
Firstly, they are ordinary humans, unlike extraordinary individuals like the Snow Queen. These villagers do not possess any supernatural abilities in the conventional sense.
Their intelligence is similar to that of average humans. However, due to their lack of exposure to the real world, they are missing some common knowledge. For example, they do not understand what a train is, have never seen large ships at sea, and are unaware of what steam engines and firearms are.
In other words, these villagers are like people who have come out of poor mountainous areas, unfamiliar with these novel things, but their learning ability is quite good.
Under Fang Mo's simple popular science explanations, they quickly learned to use some basic modern tools.
Additionally, these villagers have a mysterious fondness for emeralds, showing a unique preference for them over other precious metals and jewels.
Especially the top-quality emeralds that Fang Mo brought from the MC world.
These had an almost fatal attraction for them.
Besides these traits, the villagers have a special ability to always recognize the real Fang Mo, as well as other creatures from the MC world.
Even if Fang Mo hides in a crowd and changes his appearance to someone else using his custom Steve ability, the villagers can instantly identify him and treat him as their leader. They can also distinguish each other in a crowd, accurately identifying who is a creature from the MC world and who is a native of this world.
Even Fang Mo himself does not understand the principle behind this, but the villagers can inexplicably identify the truth at a glance.
Considering this peculiar characteristic, Fang Mo gradually formed a plan in his mind.
He planned to disperse these villagers throughout Egypt, using them to establish a large network on the surface. The villagers would collect information in the open, while the Goblins and Silverfish would work in the shadows, digging and excavating. By working together, they could greatly increase the efficiency of finding the Stans Arrow.
Of course, once the Stand Arrow was found, Fang Mo could also disperse these villagers around the world to establish a trade association, perhaps named the Emerald Smugglers' Guild.
After all, the world of JOJO was quite suitable for a vacation.
Even Speedwagon had a consortium, so it would be a loss of face if Fang Mo didn't play around with one himself.
This time, Fang Mo brought a large number of MC creatures, including thousands of Goblins, and no fewer villagers. After all, production in MC was very brainless, with things being generated automatically.
Fang Mo first found an uninhabited area and released all the villagers and goblins.
The Goblins turned out to have surprisingly good construction skills, quickly bringing in a lot of stone and wood, and they were not picky eaters, eating almost anything. Along with the villagers, they could quickly build a village on the spot.
As for the source of food, it was mainly potatoes and corn.
Fang Mo had the Ring of Arcana, and in the mode of the Goddess of Harvest, he could ripen hundreds of tons of potatoes in minutes, as MC players single-handedly managing an entire industrial chain was not just talk.
During this time, Fang Mo also tested the Silverfish.
With a flash of white light, a cute, large bug appeared at Fang Mo's feet.
Different from the Silverfish in MC, this creature, once materialized, was about the size of a palm, oval in shape, with a gray-white chitinous shell covering its body.
At first glance, it looked a bit like a terrestrial version of a giant isopod... well, or a pill bug.
However, what gave Fang Mo a headache was that this creature was not humanoid, and to be honest, he didn't know how to communicate with it. Could the localization mod let him talk to bugs as well as dogs?
After some thought, Fang Mo decided to give it a try.
"Bro, can you understand me?" Fang Mo squatted down, attempting to communicate with the Silverfish: "If you can understand, can you give me a sign? Like curling up into a ball or something..."
To Fang Mo's surprise, the Silverfish actually slowly curled its body into a ball.
"Wow... really?" Fang Mo was shocked and instinctively touched his head: "Is this localization mod so powerful? Just randomly catching a bug and being able to chat with it... Is this to facilitate me telling them hell jokes?"
"Hiss…"
As Fang Mo was talking to himself, the foolish insect on the ground also emitted a series of shrill cries.
Unexpectedly, Fang Mo actually understood the insect's shrill cry. It wasn't any specific speech but rather an expression of a very primitive and chaotic emotion, similar to an insect's biological instinct. The little creature was hungry.
After some thought, Fang Mo threw a potato at it. After all, it was just a mere Silverfish; Fang Mo couldn't possibly feed it meat or anything like that.
Fortunately, Silverfish was not picky about its food. It happily nibbled on the raw potato and after eating about half of it, the creature was full. It then lay down and started grooming its two small antennae.
Seeing this, Fang Mo continued to test various characteristics of Silverfish. It turned out to be a social creature. Each Silverfish could rapidly transmit information to others through pheromones, shrill cries, and antennae movements.
Their sensing abilities were incredibly strong, able to detect the slightest vibrations in the ground and air. Moreover, their digging abilities were astounding, even more efficient than the Goblins.
In addition to this, they also had an exaggerated breeding speed like insects. Once full, they could lay eggs and reproduce quickly under the right temperature conditions. In just a few days, a large number of miniature Silverfish would hatch from the eggs.
These naturally hatched Silverfish also obeyed Fang Mo's commands. This was exhilarating for Fang Mo.
So, he brought out several Anubises, a bunch of mummies, and a whole three Geochest full of Silverfish.
As for the monster spawning cage, Fang Mo tried to materialize it. To his surprise, it turned into a one-way portal, a star-shaped spatial rift filled with a chaotic, deep void.
People on this side, whether it was others or Fang Mo himself, could not enter the portal. However, Goblins would emerge from the portal at intervals, joining Fang Mo's goblin army with a sleazy laugh.
To help these creatures find the Stand Arrow more quickly, Fang Mo even paired them with a Lich as a magical guide and gave them a set of golden apples. These were mainly for the villagers to eat, not to enhance their strength but to rapidly improve their learning abilities after their bodies were strengthened by the golden apples.
In this way, they could quickly integrate into human society and learn knowledge. Considering it was still the year 1890, and there was hardly any modern high-tech in Egypt, these villagers could quickly blend in and search for the Stand Arrow for Fang Mo with terrifying efficiency.
After all, Anubis and the mummies were originally from Egypt, so having them help with grave digging was like 'Egyptian trickery'.
Uh... Egyptian trickery? That sounds weird, doesn't it?
Anyway, things on this end were quickly settled. Fang Mo left the task of finding the Stand Arrow to these MC creatures. Since they now had their own intelligence and could communicate across species, there was no need for Fang Mo to keep an eye on them all the time.
Soon after, Fang Mo teleported back to England. However, what he didn't expect was that he had just returned and found himself in a carriage.
But embarrassingly, the carriage was already full. Erina and Jonathan sat on the left, Zeppeli and Speedwagon on the right, and a dog was lying in the middle. Fang Mo teleported in suddenly with no place to stand, almost crashing into Erina's arms.
Luckily, he reacted quickly, twisted his hips, and plopped down on Danny's lap.
"... "
Everyone in the carriage seemed to have been talking about something, but upon seeing Fang Mo's bizarre appearance, they all stopped in unison.
In an instant, the atmosphere in the carriage became extremely awkward.
Even the humanly Danny couldn't help but turn back to look at Fang Mo, his eyes seeming to say, 'Do you think I look like a horse?' filled with doubt.
"How come, is there something on my face?"
Finally, it was Fang Mo who broke the awkwardness, a bit annoyed and angry, he said: "Look at this crappy horse carriage you chose, would it kill you to leave me a spot?"
"Cough, cough, Mr. Mage."
Speedwagon also coughed awkwardly and then explained: "It's mainly because we didn't expect you to come... So, did you come specially because you don't trust us in subduing Dio?"
"I just sorted out the mess in Egypt, and just came over to take a look if there's nothing else."
Fang Mo said: "I thought you guys were still cultivating, but you found Dio's whereabouts so quickly?"
"Yes, I've been tracking Dio's trail recently."
Speedwagon nodded and said: "According to the information from my informants, someone has seen a person resembling Dio in a small town called Wind Knight's Lot, and... there seem to be many disappearances nearby."
"It seems we really don't have much time."
Zeppeli spoke: "Actually, JoJo, your Ripple training is not yet complete, but the more people the vampire consumes, the stronger it gets. If this continues, Dio will become invincible, so I can only let you complete the final Ripple training in real combat."
"No problem, Mr. Zeppeli."
Jonathan clenched his fist and said: "I'm ready for the fight."
"JoJo."
Erina placed her hand on Jonathan's fist, speaking gently: "Danny and I will fight alongside you, please don't worry."
"Woof!"
Danny barked in response.
"Me too!" Speedwagon immediately shouted: "Mr. Joestar, I will try my best!"
"You better not."
Fang Mo, hearing this, also glanced at the spirited Speedwagon: "Our lineup's output is enough already, even a hundred heads wouldn't be enough for Dio to die. You just need to calmly do the commentary."
"So what exactly is commentary..."
Before Speedwagon could finish, the galloping carriage suddenly entered a cave.
As darkness enveloped them, the carriage suddenly stopped, and a sense of crisis instantly covered everyone. Zeppeli and Erina quickly reacted, pulling their companions to jump off the carriage.
In the next second, they witnessed a horrifying scene.
The horse pulling the carriage suddenly started bleeding profusely, followed by a sound, and a long wound appeared on its stomach, with a pair of hands slowly reaching out, then the wound was torn open, revealing a sinister and evil smiling face.
"What the hell is this! How could it lurk inside a horse's body?"
Speedwagon, who a second ago didn't know what commentary was, awakened his talent seeing this scene, uncontrollably shouting: "Mr. Joestar! This guy is tough to deal with! He's even more cruel and insane than Dio!"
"You said you can't do commentary?"
Fang Mo was the last one to get off the carriage, still complaining about Speedwagon, but when he turned his head and saw this horrifying scene, he couldn't help but exclaim.
"Holy, a horse hunter!"
