The word centipede seems to have awakened Moran's memory.

She remembered how she had fainted.

Countless centipedes appeared as if out of thin air, densely wrapped around the poor snake...... Although it seemed to kill her, Moran was deeply sympathetic to what happened to her.

Moran quickly dodged and subconsciously hid behind Silai.

"I'm sorry...... I have a natural fear of bugs...... Most of the girls ...... I mean, that's what most human women are...... Please don't care......" Moran said in a panic.

Then Moran whispered in Silai's ear, "Can you believe it? I saw countless centipedes entanglement around their prey...... That's why I fainted. ”

"Then you'd better stay away from that clearing. Silai replied with a smile.

Moran was in his impression that she was completely unafraid, and when she was in the Misty Castle, she did not change her face in the face of the tragic situation in the basement, but now she ...... Afraid of bugs? He suddenly thought, this is very cute.

Of course, Silai doesn't know if he thinks Moran is cute because he is "afraid of bugs", or because he thinks "Moran is afraid of bugs".

"What?" Moran suddenly panicked, grabbing Cele's clothes with both hands, "What's over there?"

Without waiting for Silai to speak, the Phantom Centipede answered first.

"There's my essence there. ”

As soon as the words fell, a purple centipede more than ten feet tall appeared alive in front of Mo Lan's eyes, and the gurgling sound of the joints was like countless insects crawling on her body.

"Ah——!h

A piercing scream cut through the air, and Moran fainted again, unsurprisingly. Silai caught her in time, so that she did not let her stand upright on the ground.

"It turned out to be really scared. The voice of the centipede's phantom body fluttered.

Silai dared to be angry, but he asked in a different way, "You should have known from the moment Moran woke up, right? Why didn't you tell me?"

"I'm asleep. The centipede phantom replied lightly.

He couldn't refute this answer, so he had to persuade the centipede to make its body invisible and then wake up Moran.

After waking up again, Moran turned into a timid rabbit shrinking behind him, never leaving him half a step away, for fear that a centipede would emerge again.

But the truth is, they also need to rely on the strength of this centipede.

"Excuse me...... Do you know how to get out of here?" Moran asked with courage.

"No, you need to be my son's friend!

The Phantom Centipede's attitude was tough, and there was a hint of murder in his words.

"Son?" Moran wondered.

"The wild man, Bazel. It is an adopted human child of the Phantom Centipede. Remember what Selinya said in her diary? She was pregnant. Cele said, and he took the opportunity to point the matter to Moran, hoping that she would not tell her that Selinya was the one they killed.

"Uh...... I see. Moran was shocked in his tone, but he clearly understood something.

"You mentioned Selenya, the human. Do you know her?" asked the centipede phantom body.

"Recognize. Sile replied preemptively, "But I've only heard about her." I heard that she is a witch and has the ability to transform into mist. But more than ten years ago, she disappeared inexplicably and never appeared again. ”

The centipede phantom nodded, as if accepting the answer.

"What to do?" Moran asked.

Celestial naturally understood that it was the centipede phantom body that said that it made her feel embarrassed to let them stay and be friends with Bazel.

But now there is only one way.

The words of the old crow Eloise still entered his ears somewhat, such as the last sentence, "If you want to leave this place...... Then come to me, but remember, you can only be alone. 】

Cele needs to gain the trust of the centipede in exchange for the freedom to enter and exit the Phantom Forest.

"We can stay here with your son, but we need to prepare a room, plenty of food, and protect our lives. In return, we will teach you the language of the human race, and some basic human civilization. ”

"Yes. The centipede replied.

Being able to let my son learn a little more about human beings is exactly what they are here for.

Moran thought that Silai would at least bargain with the other party, set a time, and let them go back in a few months. But she also understands that Seeley is not such an easy person to dominate, and he may have his own ideas.

Moreover, in such a situation where she did not know anything about it, it was wisest to choose to trust her companions.

However, he didn't know what the Phantom Centipede said to Bazel, and he immediately came out of his frustration and danced happily.

Whimpering and whining, as if to keep them up with him.

Bazel led them away from where the Phantom Centipede had rested, returned to the surface, and led them around in a half-circle.

Only then did Moran discover that there was a cave directly below the hot spring halfway up the mountain, and there was a simple stone bed covered with dried leaves, and some rough and simple amethyst tools were discarded at random on the side.

These tools are like those made by primitive people in the Stone Age, only the materials used to make them are different.

Moran was curious to go up to see the spear hammers, but was stopped by Silai.

"Trust me, it's better not to touch those crystals. ”

Moran was particularly obedient here, saying that if she didn't let her touch it, she wouldn't touch it, she was already scared by the centipede. From Xilai's words, I always feel that the formation of these amethysts is inseparable from centipedes.

The centipede phantom body, which had never left, spoke up, "Human, you'd better close your eyes. I will enslave the centipede and make two more spaces in this cave for you to rest in. ”

"Let's open three. Moran suddenly spoke.

"Why?"

"Three people, three bedrooms, of course. And here, as a hall. ”

"Bedroom, hall...... Is it the layout of your human house? Yes. What else?"

"Kitchen, bathroom...... Anyway, there are no facilities here. ”

"Don't worry, I can use illusions to conjure those things. ”

"Illusion, isn't that fake?"

"As long as I'm alive, they're real. ”

"Very powerful...... "Moran thought to herself, she would wait a moment to ask Silai what this phantom centipede was all about, "I'll tell you, the layout of the kitchen should be ......"

The centipede's phantom form floated down, its translucent fingers on Moran's eyebrows.

"Don't bother, you just have to imagine what you want to look like and I can read your thoughts. ”

"Ah, good ......"

Moran hurriedly closed his eyes.
