Chapter 109: The Truth About Humanity
Before Hanmo could find them, someone else found him.
"I'm a military attache of the first rank of Baroni Maxi, and I belong to the gendarmerie section, and I have an adult who wants to see you, and I want you to come with me." The male rabbit man in the uniform of the Wingers said to Hanmo.
He spoke to Hanmo in a condescending manner, as if he was accustomed to a condescending posture.
"I'm sorry, but I'm not going to meet any adults." Hanmo rejected him and walked past him. Now his task is to find out whether there is such a thing as the Sixth Beast on the island, whether they are worth it, and how many islands have hidden Sixth Beast.
He didn't want to waste his time doing anything else until he had taken care of it.
"That lord is the great sage who created this floating civilization." Baroni turned to Hammer and said, then he took a letter from his bosom, "You can make a decision after reading this letter." The Great Sage said that when you read this letter, you will not refuse. ”
"Is this provoking me?" Hanmo stopped and said to him. His eyes looked at the letter, and he used his ability to see through its contents, "I can't refuse." ”
There was only one sentence in the letter, and it was that sentence that he couldn't refuse.
'The Golden Elf was created by me. ’
"The sixth beast that appeared on this island has been destroyed by you, and this place is safe." Baroni seemed to remember something, and said something like this to Hammer.
"Listen to your tone, it seems to know something." Han Mo's eyes sharpened, as if he wanted to penetrate his body and read his thoughts, "Tell me, do you know that the Sixth Beast came out of the interior of the island?" ”
The weight of the pressure made Baroni's breathing stagnant, and he couldn't help but take a step back, his body instinctively reminding him to run.
Baroni opened his mouth to deny it, but when he saw those eyes, he swallowed it back and did not answer the question.
"Sure enough." Hanmo took a deep breath and let go of his clenched fist. He wanted to go down with one punch and blow the island away. If it hadn't helped the matter work out, he would have done it a long time ago.
"Lead the way."
After he said this, he calmed down the force that was about to explode, and Baroni returned to normal.
"Okay, please come with me." Baroni lowered his head and led the way for Hanmo.
Originally, he thought that he would soon be able to meet the great sage in his mouth, but he didn't expect that even if he made an airship, it would take nearly three hours.
The number of the floating islands is arranged according to their location.
The closer you are to the center of the island, the smaller the number, and similarly, the larger the number, the farther away from the center. The island where the goblin warehouse is located is numbered sixty-eight, which is quite close to the periphery.
And the island he went to this time was numbered two, and the name of the island was 'Sanctuary'.
When he arrived, a maid of the unleashed species was waiting there.
"It's really, completely different from other places." Hanmo looked at those strange plants and buildings, the plants and architectural styles seen in other places were quite normal, but here, it was completely weird.
Not to mention the spiral tree, in the center of the island is also a huge spiral spire.
"Please come with me." The maid bowed to Hanmo, and then walked in front to guide him.
Along the way, you can feel the breath of magic coming from the space around you.
"I didn't expect to meet such a character in such a place." Hanmo pushed open the door in front of him and saw a huge black skull on the throne and an old man in a white robe.
As a human who has broken through the limits of life, he can feel that whether it is the skull or the old man, they all have the magic of the Far Away Dori in their bodies.
"This sentence should be right for us, I didn't expect that there would be a strong person like you in this world." The white-robed old man walked up to Han Mo and looked at him with a solemn face, "It's really a huge amount of life energy, it's like a ......."
"It's just like it, the star god, no, even if I have followed the star god for so many years, I have never felt such a huge amount of energy." The skull placed on the throne spoke.
"My name is Swan Kandel, that is, the Great Sage, and the bone behind me is the Black Candle King. The creator of our floating civilization. The great sage Shi Wan opened his mouth to introduce himself.
"You came to me, what's the matter?" Hanmo asked.
"How's that, can you be sure?" Swan didn't answer, but looked at the Black Candle King behind him.
"He's not a star god." The Black Candle King said affirmatively, and then added, "But it's not an ordinary person. ”
Shi Wan looked at Hanmo again with some disappointment, "Well, we originally thought you would be a star god, so we came to you to confirm your identity." ”
"Star God?" Han Mo muttered this word, which sounded like a certain kind of existence with great power, "Is it my power that caused you to have such a misunderstanding?" ”
"yes, that kind of power." Swan nodded vigorously, "When we first learned of your existence, we didn't choose to reach you. Because, your power is very strong, so strong that we dare not rashly touch you, we are afraid that this fragile floating civilization will be destroyed by you. After that, we learned about your personality through the people at the fairy storehouse,66 and judged that you would not be easily destroyed, so we chose to meet you. ”
The Black Candle King took his words and continued, "After all, the Terrans have done such an excessive thing, and it is normal for them to feel like this......
"Wait." Hanmo interrupted, "I don't want to know what you're going to do, I'm here because the letter says, 'I created the Golden Elf. Since you would write like that, I think you should know the purpose of my promise to come here. ”
"Of course." Swan nodded in affirmation, "You're really just like William in this regard." Noticing Han Mo's surprised eyes, Shi Wan added, "I forgot to say, we all survived five hundred years ago, I am William's friend, and it used to be William's opponent. However, none of this mattered after the appearance of the Seventeen Beasts. In order to survive, we led the surviving races to create this floating civilization. Do you know the origin of the Seventeen Beasts? ”
"Seventeen beasts were turned into humans, right?" Hammer told what he knew.
"You actually know this, understand this, you can still know the seventeen beasts...... You're not quite right, though. Swan stretched out his finger and shook it, "More precisely, it was the humans who turned back into the Seventeen Beasts. ”
"In other words, all human beings are transformed into seventeen beasts?" Hanmo thought of this speculation and immediately turned around and prepared to leave here. If that's the case, then William is at risk of turning back into the Seventeen Beasts at any time.
"A long time ago, the star god came to this planet......"
Many years ago, a race known to later generations as the 'Star Gods' lost their homeland. They wander through the universe in a spaceship and eventually reach the planet. When they first arrived, the planet was desolate, with no other creatures except for a few less advanced native species.
Because of nostalgia for his hometown, the star god has transformed the planet. They used their soul fragments to transform the native species of the planet into creatures that resembled themselves, that is, later humans.
They planted vegetation and created other creatures to make the planet just like they were from.
However, the soul fragments come from themselves, and the star god who tears his soul apart will die. As humans multiply more and more, the number of star gods decreases. Until 500 years ago, there was only one known star god in the entire world, the newborn young star god Ai 6 Ke Hawksden.
Without the source of soul fragments, humans will revert back to being inhuman, only instinctual 'beasts'. In order to prevent the end of humanity, they sent the strongest team of brave men of our time to crusade against their creator, the last star god.
Of course, the slogan they propagated to the outside world was to destroy the demon king who destroyed the world and save mankind.
And Swan and William, who were part of the crusade team at that time, the Black Candle King, were the last Star God's subordinates.
The Brave Squad defeated the Star God's men and killed the Star God, but they were almost completely wiped out themselves. Their operation was a success, but it also failed. The surviving team brought back the corpse of the last star god, hoping to use her soul to maintain her human form.
And the ending is already clear.
They failed because without the corresponding technology, even if there were raw materials, they could not use them. Thus, the human race continued to revert to the Seventeen Beasts. The so-called Seventeen Beasts exterminated humans in one year, but in fact, humans turned back into Seventeen Beasts in one year.
During the battle at that time, Swan transformed himself into an immortal in order to complete his mission, and the Black Candle King also began to awaken after some time had passed after being defeated by William. Seeing that apocalyptic stance, Swan brought the last remaining subhumans to create a floating civilization. And in order to reclaim the land, together with his former enemy, the Black Candle King, he used Ai 6 Ke's soul and necromancy to create a golden elf.
Both the Golden Elves and the Humans are made up of the souls of the Star Gods, so they can also use the Holy Sword.
"You created the Golden Elves only as weapons?" Han Mo's eyes gradually became cold, "The humans of this world can really do anything." ”
Because they want to change back to their original ways, they directly crusade against their creator? Such a thing is really done.
Rather, Han Mo could understand why human beings had only become Seventeen Beasts five hundred years ago.
"Unable to control his desires, he desperately reproduced, causing the star god to no longer be able to bear the burden of transforming humans, and finally killed his own creator. I really can't think of any need for such a human being. ”
He felt a pang of sorrow, sorrow for the star gods, he didn't know what purpose they had, sacrificing themselves to create humanity, but in the end, they were still exterminated by humans, which was really sad.
Hanmo felt injustice for the Star God race, but so what, it was their own choice.
"If we don't do this, we won't be able to use the Holy Sword, and there will only be seventeen beasts left in this world." Shi Wan said in a heavy tone, "But too much knowledge has been lost, and even we can't make the Holy Sword." ”
What he said was the truth, although the strength of the two of them was very strong, they were still far weaker than Han Mo, so they did not have the ability to clear the Seventeen Beasts. Not to mention anything else, the huge jelly-like monster that Hanmo encountered before was not something they could solve.
"Then again, I don't like Terrans myself, but this guy has become an undead, and he is not a Terran anymore." Black Candle Gong said on the side, and then it changed its words, "Golden goblins are actually necromancers, and in the process of their growth, they will encounter the erosion of consciousness and awaken the memories of their previous lives. How about we make a trade? You help us destroy the Seventeen Beasts, and we help you to make the Golden Goblin a normal life and live. ”
At times like these, there's no point in hiding things. This kind of thing, as long as he continues to stay in the goblin warehouse, he will know, so Black Candle Gong said it directly.
Hanmo looked at them and said in a deep voice, "Yes." ”
