The girl nodded.
"That's it." He confirmed, "I haven't seen it, but Felkin told me about it. There is such a person, but he is not one of you humans, but one of our own people."
"What about her?"
"died."
"died?"
"He died long ago."
According to Rip's description, the "tribesman who could play the violin" had been followed by Ferkin for a period of time, and the reason why Ferkin later founded the Awakening Alliance was largely influenced by her.
Hitzfeld was almost certain that person was Zola!
"She was the leader... That's what Felkin said," Rip recalled. "Everyone loved her and listened to her. During that time, many people actually favored the current state of the Awakening Alliance."
"But somehow she went mad and jumped into the rift and died. From then on, the tribe began to forget civilization and gradually became what it is today."
"Is the rift she jumped into the same rift that Jonah came out of?" Hitzfeld asked with a gloomy face.
"No."
You look better.
"But there is no difference...the rifts are all connected, and there is a passage underneath."
The girl's face looked unhappy again.
After saying goodbye to Ruibo, she began to wonder alone whether Jonah might be Rola's daughter.
Now we have collected a lot of evidence to prove that Roula has indeed been here...
Then her reasoning was correct—something, for whatever reason, had revived Roula, brought her from the icy waters of the Bro River into the red earth, and somehow made her the leader of these alien species.
She must have been corrupted by then. It was also because of her discipline and restraint that the tribesmen during that period were more inclined to people like Felkin and Ripple, and not as primitive as those led by Pun...
This is really strange.
One is, as Darent wondered, they were just mortals at the time, so what did they see in Roula when they took her away?
Why didn't you choose her over someone else?
Another is about Rora's madness, and her death was a suicide, "caused by her madness."
So what was it that drove her crazy?
There is still time now, and she plans to ask Felkin about it in detail tomorrow.
"Heath!"
A voice came from the side.
Hitzfeld's heart skipped a beat as he spotted a giant insect standing on the corner, with a tall figure riding on its back, covered in a layer of red light.
It's Pun.
It actually came back early, so...
"The camp is almost ready." Puen was very happy. He turned over and stamped his feet in front of her. "The statue and the altar are also ready... Now we just have to wait for the resurrection ceremony tomorrow. We will definitely be able to... succeed!"
Thanks to Xia, Hitzfeld's mastery of the Worm language has improved greatly. Now he can understand Pun's meaning completely without interruptions.
"Tomorrow..." She twitched her lips, "Uh... I thought it would be at least the day after tomorrow..."
"You can speak now?" Pun stared with his mouth stretched to his ears.
"Come on... Heath! I didn't intend for you to come so early, but I'm really... I'm really happy!"
It tried to pull the girl away by force. Hitzfeld didn't want to be forced, so he had no choice but to sit on its back and head towards the city wall with the entire army of war insects.
After leaving the city wall, they stopped at the edge of a rift.
Hitzfeld also rolled over and noticed a lot of friction marks on the ground.
Some deep and some shallow, they look like the wheel marks left by a large jeep driving through the mud.
But they are much thicker, with the smallest one having a diameter of 7-8 meters.
“It’s spectacular~”
A worm knight nearby laughed sharply.
"Those are all traces left by the emperors!"
"Huh?" Hitzfeld was suddenly stunned.
"Emperor?" She turned her head. "You said these things are emperors? ...Emperor?"
"It's the emperor..." The knight leaned back slightly, "What's wrong..."
Big problem!
Without a mirror, Hitzfeld could guess how ugly his face looked.
So this is the emperor?
The smallest of these traces has a diameter of 7-8 meters, and the largest has a diameter of 12 meters.
According to the 1:15 width-to-length ratio of the red soil worm, even the largest emperor would not exceed 150 meters in length!
Although it is huge enough and amazing enough to deserve the title of King, compared with the giant monster that attacked the patrol, the gap is more than twice!
If this was considered an emperor, then what was it that attacked them?
Just then, her left eye suddenly began to hurt.
Turn your head little by little.
A huge piece of armor appeared before my eyes.
It is over 20 meters in diameter and is rising up from the rift little by little.
A fishy wind blew in my face, and a huge feeling of oppression enveloped me.
Hitzfeld raised his head slowly and saw the familiar face again.
The daisy-shaped crack that once swallowed countless lives... the dense fangs... the seven-eyed carving... reappeared like the deepest nightmare.
"Come on, Heath!"
Pun's voice came from the side.
"This is Emperor 'Rou'!"
"She is the original emperor!"
"My mother too!"
--------
Ahem, I am considering changing the update time. There will still be 3 updates tomorrow, before 12 noon.
Chapter 85: Sanfeli's Heir
Emperor's Softness!
Hitzfeld took two steps back and stared at the huge shadow in front of him. Many of the confusions in his heart finally had answers at this moment.
This name is a clear sign.
Tell her clearly that it was this thing... it was Emperor Rou who pulled the strings at that time - it was this thing that made the sound!
"Is this what you mean or hers?" Taking a deep breath, Hitzfeld asked Pun beside him.
"Of course that's what I meant." Pun was very proud. He didn't understand how much shock this scene and this name brought to Hitzfeld. He still looked very proud and kept introducing to her the status of this "original emperor" in the tribe.
"Of course, my mother also had some thoughts about this... My mother said that she had always wanted to meet you, and also said... well... she also said that she was the one who discovered your talent for sacrifice..."
it is as expected.
Hitzfeld's heart sank slightly.
The title of Emperor may not be obvious, but after the explanations of Rip, Felkin and especially Jonah, she has deeply understood the biggest difference between the Emperor Worm and other worms.
That is wisdom.
Even if they do not possess any other abilities, the mere fact that they have awakened their wisdom is considered an extraordinary breakthrough for animals other than humans.
That is why emperors have such a status, and that is why they are said to be the most loyal believers of the Seven-Eyed Evil God, because faith and belief are things that can only be reconstructed by wisdom.
This is the most dangerous situation.
Emperor, 'soft'.
The pronunciation of "rou" was undoubtedly from Roula. So she didn't need to think about other possibilities. She only had this one choice... to confirm that Roula-Dalent was transformed into the first emperor worm in history through a mysterious method.
Suddenly, she seemed to have thought of something, and her lips were tightly pursed as she looked at the giant insect.
"It's not because of me..." she said.
"It's not because of me that we survived, but because of Mapus...You gave Poon the order, so you wouldn't kill him in the first place!"
Possessing wisdom, faith, and the ability to communicate with lower-level clans, Hitzfeld could no longer treat the other party as a simple beast.
Don't forget, they have met before. On the cliff platform of the camp, she and Rou had a short but long confrontation. Rou should know that she knew the true name of the Seven-Eyed Evil God from that time.
Yes, she knew it all.
Hitzfell's identity... her purpose... her and her companions' plans... and possibly even the Awakened Alliance, this giant and terrifying Mother of Worms knew it all.
She has intelligence, thoughts, and memory, so she still remembers who Darent is.
When the team was discovered and surrounded, Pun walked towards them with a long knife in his hand. He didn't mean to kill them all. He probably just wanted to kill everyone except Darent.
It was even possible... She had seen him clearly when she attacked the camp, and the reason why the patrol was able to keep so many people and slide down - slide into the tunnel leading to the underground cavity was because she gave him a break for Darent's sake.
What about the illusion and mirage…?
The illusion that once deceived Hitzfeld was also controlled by Rou.
Did she really want to eat them all up this way?
Or... did she want to confirm something with the sound of the piano in the illusion?
After a brief goose bump, there was a chill.
Hitzfeld suddenly realized that Rou was not incapable of killing them all.
She didn't do it not because she couldn't, but because she didn't want to, and she hesitated because of someone among them.
This person is Darent.
It turned out that it started from that time...
[Aisun...]
A magnetic, deep female voice suddenly broke into my mind.
Hitzfeld half-closed his eyes, looked up and "met" the giant insect with a look of surprise on his face.
[it's me. ]
The worm's body had no eyes, but it was clear that she had some way of seeing her, and her body trembled slightly.
[You guessed right. I really didn't intend for Puen to let anyone else go, but you are different. You gave me a special surprise.]
"Because I can chant His name?" Hitzfeld looked up at her. "Why? Is this so important to you?"
[Very important.]
The female voice was calm and soft.
[The me you see now is not what I looked like at first.]
[I was once like a pure beast, muddleheaded and shameless...]
[But I am a part of her after all, and some memories came back to me.]
[I was once human.]
[It was Jodin Frentes who took me away from the icy river and told me at that time that he needed me and this place needed me.]
[He said... the Red Earth Plains were not like this before. It was the evil spirits that polluted this land and distorted the cognition of the creatures on this land. He also said that the reason why Weng Saiyin has not faced much pressure for many years is because he is guarding it. He alone has kept the secrets here...]
"Yordin-Frentes?"
