Chapter 1423: The Battle of the Latent Teeth (39)

In fact, seven years ago, Constantine, who was still a child, had successfully taken Elaine, a white bear man with only one head, to the body of a beheaded brown bear.

So Elaine is actually also the head of a bear man, plus the body of a brown bear - a monster with a "bear head and brown bear body".

Since the head of the bear man can survive on the body of a brown bear, it should not be completely impossible to connect the head of a lion man to the body of a human to survive.

Since there is this possibility there, there is no need to pay much attention to the details or anything.

"But you actually put your own husband's body on the Sphinx?"

"Don't say it. Rosetta sighed: "I don't know what I was doing at the time, maybe I was confused for a while, or maybe I was in the sun all day and suffered from heat stroke." Anyway, I did this kind of stupid thing, and I can't take it back like water spilled out. So be it. ＂

"But that's your husband's body!"

"Because of that. Rosetta turned to look at Palamides with a serious expression: "His body should have been buried at sea, either burned to ashes or torn to pieces and eaten by the birds of the sea." Even if I do nothing, that body will eventually be eroded and rotten by bacteria, and it will be destroyed no matter what. But I transplanted it to the Sphinx. I'm honestly glad I did, and thanks to this, my husband's body is still [alive], isn't it?"

"But that's not your husband's body anymore"

"Well, God knows. The Jewel Queen smiled mischievously, "Even though the Sphinx doesn't know what magic was used to take the body that didn't belong to him, some things still won't change. I knew he had a star-shaped birthmark on his left shoulder, and I knew he had a scar on his right lower abdomen. I even remember the size of his old two. All this, everything that should have been annihilated and forgotten with time, has been preserved because of this. So, Palamides, do you think all this is fake?"

The Leopard warrior fell silent, unable to answer.

Rosetta smiled again and continued, "Let me tell you one more good thing." My first husband was diagnosed with testicular cancer when he was thirty years old, so his one was replaced with artificial implants. Although this does not affect the sex life between us, he is absolutely infertile.

In other words, the Sphinx, who took my husband's body, no matter how much he reshapes that body and rejuvenates it, will never grow another pair [of that thing]. The Sphinx is sterile, three hundred years ago -- how old are you, Palamides?"

Palamides frowned, as if he understood something.

"If you count the seven years I have been asleep, I should be forty years old. He replied.

"Should?"

"Because I was born as an orphan, I don't know exactly when I was born. Palamides said.

"But that's telling. Rosetta continued: "You who have lived no more than fifty years can never be the son of the Sphinx." So when you told me you were the son of the Sphinx, I knew you were lying. ＂

"Ugh. The big cat shrugged slightly awkwardly.

"But the most interesting thing is that the Sphinx really thinks of you as his son, and he speaks with a firm heart voice without the slightest noise, so what he said at that time should be 100% truthful and never wrong. Rosetta took another sip of her coffee, "That's the most interesting part of things." ＂

"Is it possible that he used some method to hypnotize himself, or to hypnotize you?" asked Palamides curiously.

"Unlikely. At least I had enough anti-hypnosis measures during the meal, and I didn't think he was strong enough to hypnotize me at the time. And he hypnotized himself? even more unlikely. Self-hypnosis has a limit, and since he has performed self-hypnosis, it means that he knows that he is lying, and when he tells me that you are his son, he will show a little flaw. However, there is no flaw in his words.

He is obviously infertile, and even if he is given 10 million possibilities, he will never give birth to you as a [son], but he did not hesitate to say it, believing that you are his son. I just can't understand it. ＂

"Does he know about it himself?" asked Palamides again.

"Perhaps. He should also know very well that his body below the head was snatched from someone else, and the state of that body can be figured out with just a full body examination, including the problem of infertility. Rosetta replied truthfully, "And, he saw me when he first woke up." I don't know if he was conscious at the time, but I think he should have recognized me. After all, my appearance hasn't changed much since three hundred years ago. ＂

So the Sphinx father knew that he had been sterile since three hundred years ago, but he still insisted that Palamides was his son. So the Sphinx dad knew that Rosetta also knew the secret, but he still insisted that Palamides was his son. Where did he get his confidence?-There is one more unsolved mystery about Daddy Sphinx.

"That's all for that weird topic. Seeing that Palamides was getting deeper and deeper, Rosetta hurriedly stopped: "Okay, you've been shopping with me all day, you must be tired, right?

"What activity?"

"Hey, you'll find out soon. The Jewel Queen smiled mysteriously.

Half an hour later. The northeastern part of the Great Rift Valley.

"Huh?" the big cat looked down from the helicopter and couldn't help but be surprised: "Why did we come to such a place?!"

"Look at it," Rosetta said with a smile, "Look, is there something under those cliffs in the canyon?"

Palamides narrowed his eyes and looked closely. Sure enough, some milky white oval objects floated in the canyon out of thin air. They look like some kind of strange building, like a high-tech legacy left by ancient people, or like some supernatural phenomenon. All in all, Palamides couldn't understand what the white oval objects were, let alone how they floated in the air.

"I don't understand" the Leopard Man Warrior scratched his head, "Is that some kind of anti-gravity device?"

"No, that's a creature. Rosetta explains: "More precisely, the cocoon of living beings. Of course you can't understand it now, come on, let's take a closer look. ＂

The big cat waited silently, and when the helicopter had landed on the cliff at the top of the canyon, he walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down.

"Wow. When he looked at it from closer, Palamides was even more surprised. Those so-called [cocoons] really floated in mid-air like that, with no support from above or below. The wind in the canyon was strong, but the wind blew against the huge white oval objects, and only slightly shook them, after all, the cocoons themselves were very large.

If Rosetta says they're cocoons of some kind of creature, what exactly is inside?

As if having read Paramidis's mind a long time ago, Rosetta the Queen of Jewels walked up to the big cat and explained softly, "These are the cocoons of the desert demon silkworm. It's the pupation period, and in a week or two, they'll be completely transformed from desert silkworms into desert moths. And now is the best time to get their silk. ＂

"Silk?" Palamides remembered that when Rosetta mended his pants before, it seemed to be the silk of the Desert Demon Silkworm. If her words were true, then she also used this magical magic silk when she attached the head of the Sphinx to her husband's body three hundred years ago. What is so special about this silk that it is worth Rosetta the jewel queen who has long been the richest man in Egypt to come and pick up the silk?

"Is it because they can create anti-gravity?" said Palamides, casually guessing.

"Anti-gravity?ha, what are you talking nonsense!" This sentence made Rosetta laugh: "It's just ordinary silk, how can it be anti-gravity?-well, it seems that you haven't understood it yet." Then take a closer look and see what is attached to those magic cocoons. ＂

Palamides narrowed his eyes and looked more closely.

That's right, there really is something there. It's silk.

Two thin strands of silk extended from the end of the cocoon, one extending upwards and sticking to the top of the cliff, while the other extended downwards, presumably attached to the bottom of the canyon. These cocoons, which are as big as a cow, look so heavy that the wind can't even blow them. But such a heavy cocoon is only held in place by two silk threads that are so thin that they are almost invisible?!

"What a strong tenacity!" Palamides couldn't help but exclaim, "Is this really possible?!"

"The facts are in front of you, aren't they?" Rosetta laughed, "A piece of Desert Demon Silk that is only a thousandth of an inch thin can withstand two tons of tension, and the cocoon of that Desert Demon Silkworm actually weighs a little five tons. In order to defend themselves against the attacks of natural predators, these silkworm babies use a silk to hang themselves in the air in the canyon. It is under the protection of this kind of hanging silk that they complete the transformation from silkworm to moth, which is a wonder in nature. ＂

"Hmm. Palamides listened quietly, not commenting. Rosetta seemed to want Palamides to do something for her, and she was probably going to bring it up soon.

"Now, can you fetch a cocoon for me?" Sure enough, the Jewel Queen ordered.
