726. The Future Prophecy of the Virtuous Wolf: Your Wife and My Wife
If an ordinary person suddenly meets his long-dead grandfather unexpectedly one day, it is estimated that there must be a lot of things that the two sides can talk about.
But this routine can't be applied to Xu Gesen and the King of Biting Bone, first, the Jackal race is emotionally indifferent, and even between father and son there is not so much warmth at all, which is not only determined by living habits, but also by the level of civilization.
Second, Xu Gesen's life experience is also quite sad.
As an orphan, it was raised by Chief Potana, and although the Mother of the Claws was kind to it, and regarded it as the most perfect work of her life, that affection stemmed more from Portana's morbid worship of the Bone-Biting King than how much Potana really loved him.
The Mother of Claw didn't even teach her three children well, so you don't have to expect her to be a good mother here with Shuckson.
If you really want to love it, you won't have left so many scars on Ugsen's body because of so many voodoo enhancements, and even the vocal cords were burned, although it was an accident, but it was not because Potana was too lazy to listen to the screams of the cubs.
It is difficult to say why Xu Gesen fell into Nanak Blackeye's feelings because this withdrawn guy has never been treated gently since he was a child, and the first female of the same age that he paid attention to happened to be the intelligent and wild Nanak, which directly caused it to fall into it and find it difficult to extricate himself.
But having that kind of childhood made Schugson destined to have difficulties in dealing with people.
In this case, when Xu Gesen encountered the "word therapy" offensive of his own great grandfather, it was normal for him to be at a loss, and as the commander of the gnolls, the great men of the jackals, although Lord Philip did not use conspiracy and tricks, it was by no means because it would not be used.
In the face of Xu Gesen, a "problem child", he easily grasped it in three or two sentences.
The grandfather and grandson were not friendly, but right next to the stone where the King of Biting Bones sat when he first appeared, under the guidance of the King of Biting Bone, the silent Xu Gesen quickly told his growth experience and his plans.
"Ah, I see, Portana wants to create another me, what an ambition! It's a pity that her strength is obviously not worthy of this brilliant ambition, look at what she has cultivated you.
I didn't see a second king of biters, I only saw a scarred dog with a broken backbone. β
Frederick was not angry at the evil deeds of the Claw Master, but said with regret:
"That ambitious chief obviously can't understand where the true power of the jackals comes from, and she doesn't know how this body of power can exert its true power, whether it's dead or not, I won't have to take the time to explain to you what cultivation is and what is utilization.
I don't have that much time to teach you to discern people's hearts and encourage you to stand up to her and eventually overcome her.
Ah, I owe that one more owe that adult.
But your leash has been loosened, and you're going to put another collar back on, hey, Chief Murphy's assessment of me is really accurate, I've tried all my life to make the jackals live like people and not beasts, but after I struggled for more than ten years and even overturned most of the world and died for a hundred years, I found that nothing seemed to have changed.
You are still so foolish and reckless, willing to be loyal dogs at the feet of others. β
"Murphy? Sir? β
Xu Gesen can't hear the name now.
It jumped up angrily on the spot and roared in this mental space:
"That vampire killed my mother! He is the most formidable enemy of the Gnolls, how can you, as the King of Legends, be part of him! β
"Sit down! Don't get so excited. β
Fredet glanced at it and said lightly:
"If you interrupt me again, I will crush every bone of you while instructing you in your fighting skills, and call this process 'education of love'. You little cub have reminded me that Potana is not your mother!
She doesn't deserve such a warm word to describe her.
She's just a careerist who wants to take advantage of you and tame you like a dog, and you can thank her for sheltering you and for leaving you a whole clan, but giving birth to more undeserved feelings because of this only proves your weakness.
I think you're probably aware of this yourself.
Otherwise, you won't have a quiet romance with the girl of the Black-Eyed Clan, and you know what will happen to your child once your affair is known to Potana, so you hide it from her.
Well done!
This proves that you are quietly resisting, and this proves that you are still a little wild and a little brainy.
This proves that you are still saved.
This act alone shows that your feelings for Portana are also complicated, and that you are not as angry about her death as you described.
I guess you even felt a strange sense of relief the moment she was confirmed.
Well, you don't need to explain it to me, I'm not interested in hearing it, and I'm not interested in counseling you, but I'll tell you something, and what I'm doing with Hogg and Chief Murphy, and it's something you have to be a part of.
I don't even need to convince you.
Because you have my blood in your body, and you have inherited my strength, and naturally you will inherit my duties and missions.
You can refuse.
I'll only say this to you this once.
I will not interfere with your choice, but you better be good in front of me, you can disrespect me, but you have to respect the power. β
ShΓΌgesen fell silent.
Of course it wanted to resist, but it turned out that the Lord of the Biting Bones was not enough to hit it with one hand.
In the next few minutes, the Lord of the Biting Bones briefly described his origins and the fall of the Lord of the Hunt to Hygesen, explaining the origin of the birth of the Gnoll and Hogg's upcoming journey.
It didn't need to say more, Hugeson was smart enough to understand what this operation meant for the Gnoll civilization.
But there are still doubts.
After Philip had finished speaking, it asked, rather incomprehensibly:
"I can understand why you have to destroy the Lord of the Hunt, but why work with Murphy? Is there anything unique about that vicious vampire? Could it be that this plague is also in your plans? β
"I've already called him 'sir', what do you think he is?"
Philip said in a calm tone:
"Chief Murphy is the Creator's last hope for this world, and you may be caught up in the trap of not understanding the tragic role that the Gnoll civilization plays in the conspiracy of the subspace, or you may still be resentful of the Trancian for the tragic defeat they have given you, but you must understand the difference between the primary contradiction and the secondary contradiction.
You can't be a gnoll like Hogg who has the future of an entire race in mind, and your experiences as a child make it difficult for you to empathize with the suffering of other gnolls, but you should at least think about your lover and your children, Hygeson.
The Lord of the Hunt cannot be born, or the only person you care about will suffer as a result.
This is the only request I have for you, in this matter, you will do your best to assist the Virtuous Wolf and Murphy and the Godslayers, and I have no intention of participating in your feud with Translasia, and I don't care where your future ends.
You have my war blood in your veins, and perhaps dying on the battlefield is the best fate for you.
Got it? β
"Hmm."
Hearing the Lord of the Biting Bone mention Nanak and her child, ShΓΌgesen could no longer utter any words of resistance.
In fact, it was not only the Lord of the Biterners who described to it the threat of the birth of the Lord of the Hunt, but even the dead Potana had said similar things, which was enough to prove that his grandfather, Lord Freret, had not deceived him in this matter.
And Hygson did have a common interest with Hogg and the God Eaters in this matter.
It says:
"So, shouldn't I be the chosen one of the hunters? Maybe I should take this opportunity to attack the shrine? With a weapon like the Wolf Blood Holy Sword, maybe it only takes one chance for me to do it."
"Don't try it, I tried your martial arts just now, and now you can't do it, Potana used voodoo to interfere with your power so that you didn't use the destructive power of this blood and bone at all.
It's three times stronger, barely about the same.
That shrine was personally carried out by me in the Gnoll Civilization Pavilion with the Creator's lathe, and I know better than you how strong it is, not to mention that it is now blessed with divine power. β
Frered shook his head and said:
"So we have to take a more adventurous approach, you, you follow your original plan, return to the Mossy Valley to become the Chosen Choice of the Lord of the Hunt, and use the divine power to cleanse the body of Potana's voodoo.
I'll leave you some of my understanding of martial arts and power, and after you're purified again, you'll be able to learn about it.
You don't have to fear that you will be polluted by the Lord of the Hunt.
Chief Murphy has a magical talent that can easily purify this power from the evil gods, as long as you keep the high ground of your soul and don't let the mind of the Lord of the Hunter eat away at your mind, you can return to a pure state after the great things have been done. β
"I won't ask him!"
Xu Gesen stubbornly said:
"Murphy is my enemy! As you say, Potana may only want to use me, but without her, I wouldn't be alive today, and Murphy killed her, and I must get revenge! This is a tradition of the gnolls. β
"Whatever you want! Lao Tzu said, Lao Tzu is really not interested in how you arrange the end of your life, and you don't have to report to me when you run to die. β
Frederick sneered and said:
"In fact, even without the help of Chief Murphy's talent, you can rely on your own strength to fight against the mind of the Lord of the Hunt,
It sounds difficult, but Lao Tzu is the perfect creature of the Golden Age, born to be the superior protector of the Creator sequence, you have inherited my potential and genes, although not full strength, but your resistance to subspace things is more than a hundred times stronger than ordinary gnolls.
After all, it hasn't been born yet, and it doesn't corrupt your mind so easily, but if you can't resist that temptation to become a demon, then you can't blame others.
Now listen up.
Once you become the Chosen One of the Lord of the Hunt, the priests of the Bloodscar Clan will definitely ask you to perform various sacrifices in the physical world to hasten the birth of the Lord of the Hunt, all you have to do is delay the process as much as possible!
At least until Hogg's journey to find his roots is complete, and at least until the faith of the Creator takes root in the Gnoll civilization!
In this way, even without the Lord of the Hunter, our civilization and the soul consciousness of our people will have the right destination.
Moreover, the belief in the creator can divert the control of the hunter over the tribe, so that even if the worst happens, the tribe will not all fall at the moment of the birth of the hunter.
But you have to be smart.
There's a trick to stalling, and from that point on, your enemies are also your allies, and you just need to work with their strategy to do it.
At last!
You're going to take this opportunity!
The Virtuous Wolf has done to save the souls of his people, but the Gnolls have been savage for too long, especially in the hundred years since I died, and the rise of the Bloodscar Clan has led our people to become more and more brutal and see it as a virtue.
Well, I'll admit, it's a bad start.
But now that that's the case, it's up to you to take the opportunity to clean up these most brutal bastards!
Recruit them in the name of the Lord of the Hunt and throw them into the battlefield to consume. β
"But won't this hasten the birth of the Lord of the Hunt?"
Xu Gesen asked rhetorically:
"All He needs is torture, war and death, and the fiercer the fighting on the front lines, the sooner He will wake up."
"You'll wake up like Him if you don't do anything, but taking more Brutal with you will make the war easier for Hogg's Godeaters when they storm Mossy Valley, especially the members of the Bloodscar Clan."
Frered shook his head and said:
"These are not things you need to think about, you just need to do what you want to do according to the plans of those guys, you just need to make sure that your soul does not fall too quickly. You have taken on the most important part of this devouring of the gods.
Ultimately, you will have a choice.
I will not hide this.
Whether this thing can succeed or not, your choice at that necessary moment is crucial, and if you can, I really don't want to give such a task to a guy like you with a serious hole in his heart.
However, as fate would have it.
Anything else you'd like to ask? Hogg can't hold it anymore, I need to get you out as soon as possible. β
"Do you regret it?"
Whitson said:
"Potana used to wonder about the question, if you were given another chance to live, would you still start that war that turned the world upside down?"
"What's this stupid question?"
Philip smiled sinisterly, and said:
"I am the Son of Creation!
I was created to defend a thriving world under the blueprint of the Creator, and you all thought I went to war to rule it.
No!
No!
You cannot comprehend the pain and loss in my heart when I awaken in this age.
I didn't start the war because I wanted to destroy this world, on the contrary, I just wanted to accomplish my mission, I just wanted to turn the wrong fate of the world back on track and then protect it in my own way!
So in the face of this stupid question, I will tell you that if I were given a chance to start over, I would have started a war, I would have destroyed this era built on the ruins of the Golden Age, and then rebuilt it and defended it.
We are gnolls!
We are savage but not depraved, we are ignorant but not stupid, we are chaotic but not chaotic, we still have hope, but if you make the wrong choice at some point in the future, then we have no hope again.
Keep that in mind. β
Philip stretched out his hand and touched it lightly on Hurgeson's forehead, and as he sent it out of this mental space, it said:
"Don't live for anyone else, little one, and live for yourself in the future, you know?"
"Buzz"
Before Xu Gesen could savor what his grandfather said, his consciousness returned to his body, and it seemed that a long time had passed, but in fact, the dialogue in the spiritual world had only passed for less than a few minutes in the material world.
It also maintained the movement of holding the holy sword to kill Hogg, but the virtuous wolf in front of him was already crumbling due to the exhaustion of energy.
Xu Gesen subconsciously grabbed it, and stuck the wolf blood holy sword on the ground again.
This scene surprised Nanak very much.
What's going on with these two men?
Just now I was fighting to the death, how did I suddenly feel like I had become a good friend.
"Well, it seems that you and Lord Philae had a good conversation."
Hogg was helped to sit on the ground, and the wolf gasped for breath, and he stared at Ugson in front of him, and said:
"You may not know it, but there was a time when I envied your physique, and even had the opportunity to mold myself into such a perfect posture, but I eventually realized that it wasn't what I needed.
Power is not necessary in many cases, especially if you have it but can't use it well.
Listen to me, Your Excellency Spect.
Give up that sword in your hand when necessary!
That's not what belongs to you, it will only bring you bad luck.
I can also guess that Lord Philae has given you a very dangerous mission, and you may have a choice at some point in the future, but if it is Master Murphy standing across from you at that time, you can choose to trust him.
The Lord never disappointed those who had hope for him, even the enemy. β
Xu Gesen opened his mouth.
But in the physical world, the damaged vocal cords still failed to make a sound.
However, the clever wolf seemed to sense what Xu Gesen was trying to say, and he nodded and said:
"Go in peace, I will take care of Lady Nanak in your place, and if you do not return, I will adopt your children and become their fathers, and do my best to raise them into the last splendor of humanity as we tradition.
Rest assured.
I'm not Portana, and I'm never going to be her. β
