"No wonder we can't read the frescoes."

Anthony's lips were dry.

Although the stone statue in front of you has the shape and outline of a human, it is not human.

On top of that, the species carved by the stone statues, the ornaments it wears... It's humans.

The rings on the hands and the necklaces around the neck are made of human skulls.

"It's the worst truth." He said in a deep voice.

He had just finished telling the three of them his conjectures, but now he had a feeling of being slapped in the face.

Hao had seen a scene on the stone paintings of the Bozwa, that is, the ancestors of the Bozwa people embraced a mother monster and threw it into its mouth one by one to be eaten... In fact, this has already foreshadowed the situation of the human ancestors in the Dark Continent.

However, I just don't think it's that simple.

But what you see in front of you confirms the heritage of the Bozwa.

Why should a human city build a stone statue of a monster, and it is still placed in the most central position, and from the perspective of the landform, it seems that it is still a place of worship.

And this creature obviously has malicious intentions towards humans, but the Terrans respect it like a god.

This is the truth that Hao is most reluctant to accept... So he didn't say.

The stele under the stone statue of the monster is engraved with incomprehensible words and portraits.

The lines are exactly the same as those on other buildings in the city.

The reason why they can't understand it is because it is not the past or civilization of this human city... Instead, it is recording the history of this monster and this race in front of you, which does not belong to the memory of human beings! He circled around the stone statue, and even though the murals were generally incomprehensible, he could vaguely observe some of them.

Mankind... It's just too weak, and there is no so-called aura and all kinds of rendering.

For countless years, the ancestors of mankind have lived in the Dark Continent, through a despicable way... Climb powerful creatures.

Although human beings have developed their own way of living and the means to harness life energy, they are still incomparable to the powerful lifeforms that spread across the Dark Continent.

The only thing that can be done... Only reproduction.

Constant multiplication so that humanity is not extinct.

Continuing the Tinder...

Until one day, a man returned from the sea and found an island in a lake, where there were no terrible lifeforms... It is suitable for human habitation, so I choose to migrate.

As with the initial speculation, human... It is to be driven out.

Knocked out of the food chain.

"That is to say... For a long time, the human race has never emerged from the Dark Continent and has always been at the bottom of the food chain. It's because I'm so weak that I'm being ignored..."

After a while, Hao finished reading the patterns on the stone wall and closed his eyes.

The appearance of the island in the lake saved the life of the human race.

That's all.

The truth... Always bloody and naked.

"Captain..."

Men Qi looked at his expression and stopped talking.

Some thoughts flashed through his mind, and those speculations he had before were not without reason.

The gate and wall guarded by the gatekeeper are obviously the creations of human civilization.

Moreover, the costume pattern of the Kuluta tribe is very similar to that door, which means that in the core of the Dark Continent, there are human beings.

"This shouldn't be the whole truth, just a part..."

Hao opened his eyes and took a deep breath: "There should also be differences between the human groups living on this continent, and the conditions outside the wall are different from those inside the wall. ”

"According to my observations, from the perspective of the characteristics of the food chain and ecology, the weaker the race, the more driven to the edge of the Dark Continent, and the more powerful the race, the more inhabited the center of the continent, the entire Dark Continent is likely to be eliminated by countless food chains, the high-level races are inside the gate, and the low-level species are outside the door... The human race is not a unified group, and it is likely that they are fighting in silos. ”

After all, the facts are in front of him, and he can't help but believe it.

There are just a few doubts in his mind that have not yet been unfolded.

At this moment, suddenly, the square where the stone statues stood sounded with a beautiful rhythmic sound.

The three of them were terrified, and instantly put on a fighting posture.

Looking at the vicinity of the venue, there are actually many small biological stone sculptures that are exactly the same as the stone statues, each of which is more than three meters high, I don't know if I feel their breath of life, more than a dozen small stone sculptures suddenly rotate like music boxes, and begin to pluck, playing the musical instruments in their hands.

Although the stone statues have the appearance and posture of humans, the polishing techniques are very rough, so that at first glance, they appear to be columns that have been erected, and the lines of the body are not carved in detail. The thing in his hand was not a musical instrument that several of them were familiar with, so he didn't recognize it at the first time.

Both large and small stone statues appear to have a thick layer of hair.

The back of the skull protrudes outward.

As soon as this rhythm was issued, the three of them immediately used their mental power to protect themselves, and at the same time shielded the five senses, however, it was useless.

They still seem to be able to 'hear' sounds.

The muscles in Anthony's face began to squirm, and it seemed as if the skull and skin were about to start to twist and deform...

Men Qi's face also quickly appeared wrinkled, showing a sense of old age.

Soul Attack!

Hao is all too familiar with this ability.

A wall made of black mist enveloped the three of them in an instant.

And in the eyes of Hazy, the space here begins to diffuse with strange fluctuations as the music plays... There were soul lines like staves wafting in the air.

"The Demon King's Dark Sonata?"

"This is the Demon King?"

His pupils shrank.

Finally, he ran into a dangerous source with the same soul ability as him.

This was to be expected.

It's just that... This gargoyle creature doesn't look like a demon king.

The Dark Sonata is a solo piece composed by the Demon King, performed by piano, violin, harp and flute... And the musical instruments in the hands of these small stone statues are not these four.

The 'staves' that others can't see are swirling in the space, constantly hitting Hao's body, and the notes dissipate one by one, obviously having no effect on Hao.

"No wonder I can't find it... As a fellow user of soul energy, it is not difficult to avoid my perception. ”

Suddenly, my heart was sudden.

Suddenly waved his hand, and the air roared in the air.

All the rotating stone statues were shattered into powder in an instant.

But... The music doesn't stop.

Hao slowly turned around, looked at the tall stone statue seat, and said lightly: "Come out..."

As the words fell, the pedestal-like stone face suddenly parted to the sides, revealing an open passageway.

Then, a group of disgusting-looking creatures dressed in black robes walked out.

A few of them still have flesh and blood, but their limbs and appearance are completely deformed, which is even more disgusting than the earthworms in the Yin Beast... Among them, under a black robe, is a moving white bone.

It's just a skeleton.

But there is a fire of the soul burning in the eye sockets... Somewhat similar to the necromancer in his memories of his past life.

These weird creatures... It's all human.

Hazy now understands what these stone statues are... It's human!

It's just a human being who has undergone a mutation after listening to something like a 'dark sonata'.

Hao glanced at it with his telekinesis ability, and this group of deformed and abnormal people were not only physical, but also souls... The soul fire in their bodies was not burning, but like a mass of slime.

Only the white skeleton was different.

"I should have thought of it..."

Seeing this, Hazy exhaled a breath of turbidity.

Since weak human beings need to cling to powerful creatures and live like parasites, they will naturally become 'slaves' of all kinds of life forms.

In the human world, consciousness disappears after death, and only a small number of people with mental ability will awaken posthumous thoughts, but it is only a single obsession, a mass of consciousness.

But for the high-level creatures of the Dark Continent, such as the Demon King... It is a way for the soul to be completely protected, to abandon the body in the way of posthumous thoughts, and to have an independent spiritual will.

The soul is also energy, but it is an unconventional energy... It also shows that the means of the demon king to control energy are unfathomable.

From this point of view alone, it is far from being able to do it.

The spirits in his ghost mist are controlled by him, just like puppets.

There are no memories and thoughts before death.

It is even more impossible to get out of too far and run out alone.

In addition, the special environment of the Dark Continent also makes things that seem impossible in the human world become commonplace.

This black robe and white bones is 'after death, still alive' in the true sense.

"The Apostle of the Demon King? Believers? ”

Hao asked in a cold voice.

The soul fire in the skeleton's eyes flickered, as if it was also very curious about Hazy.

Its mouth trembled, and it uttered words and syllables that Ha couldn't understand at all.

Apparently the language of some ancient or other ethnic group.

However, the two can communicate through soul fluctuations.

"You're... Humans? ”

And what Bai Gu said afterwards made Hao Du slightly surprised.

This guy doesn't seem to think he's a 'person'.

Then he... What is it?
