Chapter 121: The Convergence of Parties
"Quick! Take me to the Holy Cave!"
The old patriarch called anxiously, and Lan Du hurriedly took two steps forward, picked him up, and trotted out of the door.
Along the way, Lan Du told the old patriarch about what happened in the holy cave: he and Lan Xiaoqi followed Professor Ada's method to let Gu worms parasitize into their hearts, and after completing the symbiosis, there was a sudden change in the cave.
They obviously didn't move their positions, but the fog around them was still getting thicker and thicker, and the Gu worms in their bodies also issued an early warning.
He and Lan Xiaoqi realized that something was wrong and hurriedly retreated outside the cave. But walking outside didn't make the fog lighten, but it was so thick that they couldn't see each other and the direction at all.
In the end, it was completely relying on the vague guidance of the Gu worms in his body that he walked out of the holy cave. And in the process, Lan Xiaoqi tripped over something.
After fumbling around, the two found that the thing that stumbled was actually a person lying on the ground. However, when they came in earlier, they had not seen anyone along the way, and there could have been no one!
At this time, although they were full of surprise and panic, they still carried the stranger who was still breathing out of the holy cave together.
When the two of them came out, Ada was also surprised to see the foreign man they were supporting, and after learning a little about what had happened, he asked Lan Du to invite the old patriarch with a solemn expression.
Ada herself, on the other hand, took care of the foreign man who mysteriously appeared, and kept an eye out for the changes in the holy cave.
As he spoke, Lan Du had already carried the old patriarch on his back to the relatively wide platform outside the holy cave.
At this time, in addition to Ada and Lan Xiaoqi on the platform, there was also a tall witch man with a beard and about the same age as Ada - he was the clan witch doctor invited by Lan Xiaoqi.
The old patriarch got off Lan Du's back, walked over to the foreign man lying on the ground, and looked at him.
It was a tall man in a tattered camouflage uniform with bronzed skin.
"Soldiers of the military?" The old patriarch frowned.
"Well, but not ordinary soldiers, it's people from the Border Special Patrol Brigade." The bearded witch doctor confirmed, "I've traded medicinal herbs with them, and I know this team logo."
As he spoke, he pointed to the right shoulder of the bronzed man.
The old patriarch nodded and looked at the witch doctor on the side, "How is he doing?"
"It's okay, it shouldn't be life-threatening." The witch doctor replied.
"Then please send him back to his troops, and by the way, let them give my people an explanation of why they are in our holy cave!" The old patriarch thought for a moment and said quickly.
"Okay, I'll go."
The witch doctor responded to the patriarch's arrangement, set up the bronze-skinned member of the special team, carried him on his back, and walked down the mountain.
After dealing with the affairs of the foreigners, the patriarch turned his gaze to the dark holy cave and asked Ada, "Have you entered the inside?"
Ada nodded: "I poked in for a short time, and saw an abnormally dense fog, the Symbiosis Gu had a strong warning, so I didn't dare to go inside."
As he spoke, a churning white mist appeared in the farthest place where the sunlight could shine in the cave.
Ada took a step forward, looking nervous: "Patriarch, it's spreading!"
The patriarch stared at the white mist, his brows furrowed, as if he was thinking about something, and after a long moment he commanded:
"Ada, go and tell all the gods in the stockade to come and assemble; Inform all the remaining clansmen to evacuate immediately!"
"Yes, Patriarch." Ada put his right hand on his left chest, bowed and turned to leave.
"Wait, after you have informed you of these two things, go to the Three Mayflies Village and tell their patriarch that history is about to repeat itself, and this time, our clan may be able to break through the shackles. Let him send someone."
Al paused slightly, then replied, "Yes, I see." ……
The ruins of a certain city in the Kingdom of Xuan, in an underground garage lit with many huge candles.
A middle-aged man in his forties is leading a group of people to kneel down on a mural.
It depicts a dark cloud filled with lightning, which is faintly visible from the clouds
to the figure of a giant creature with pairs of huge wings...
Below it are matchbox-sized houses and ant-sized humans, who are desperately fleeing forward. And behind the dark clouds, everything has been destroyed.
"He is the beginning of all things, and the end of all things...... the middle-aged man in the lead chanted as he knelt down.
"He is the beginning of all things, and the end of all things......"*N
The crowd behind repeated in unison, the sound was loud, echoing in the candlelit underground garage, but it seemed so eerie and eerie.
One strange recitation after another rang out. After a long time, it finally came to an end.
「…… When my Lord returns, all things will perish. And the godly people of the Lord will live forever in the kingdom of his God!" The middle-aged man raised his hands and closed his eyes, looking extremely fanatical.
「…… and shall have eternal life in the kingdom of his God!" Everyone in the rear recited the last sentence, and all of them made the same gesture in a frenzy.
Then, without being reminded, the crowd gradually dispersed, leaving only the middle-aged man in the lead, still kneeling in front of the mural, clasping his hands in front of his chest, and whispering prayers.
"Treading the ......"
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps behind him, from far and near, stopping about a meter away from him. The middle-aged man in the lead stopped praying, as if waiting for someone behind him to speak.
After a moment of silence, a voice like metal grinding sounded in the empty underground garage, "Something of interest to you has appeared in the Southwest Province. Maybe it has something to do with your Lord."
Then, silence returned to the garage. After a long while, the middle-aged man in the lead said, "I'll arrange for someone to go. What kind of reward do you want to get by telling me this news?"
The metal-like voice rang out again, "Share with me the information you've gotten there."
"Okay." The middle-aged man replied with a deep voice, and then he began to whisper prayers to the mural again.
Behind him, a man in a special gray cloak and a gas mask looked up slightly, glanced at the mural, and then turned away. ……
Southwest Province, Headquarters of the Border Special Patrol Brigade, Deputy Command Office.
A man in a camouflage bodysuit is at his desk reading thick papers.
And on the hospitality couch in front of him, sat a young woman in a black uniform.
Her short hair with a finger length is not exquisite, but when combined, it has an indescribable charm.
The woman wore black lipstick and black nail polish, and a slender lady's cigarette was sandwiched between her index and middle fingers. Swallowing the clouds, she flipped through the materials on her overlapping legs with her other hand.
