By daybreak, Bedwell had already evacuated with a large force.

They were stationed in an abandoned stronghold not far to the west.

It was once an outpost of the Emerald Leaf Garden, but was quickly abandoned as the wither spread and supplies were scarce.

At this time, supplies from Green Leaf Town are being sent here in a steady stream.

Previously, while the fog in the Huahua disaster area had basically dissipated, the two airships went deep into the hinterland with the speed of light to pack all the loot.

Whether it's a man-eating flower or a leader-level bug, even if these powerful creatures die, their corpses are still surrounded by pollution, and it stands to reason that airships are not easy to pretend.

But the Fire Copper is different.

Last time, most of the deck was sprayed by a dung truck, and it didn't have time to repair it, and now it is just used to transport these loot, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise.

Now only Kaena is the boss on the surface of the Blight, but the bugs and blighters have not been completely eliminated.

According to the plot in the game, even if the dungeon ends, the follow-up cleanup will take less than half a year.

So you can't rush, you have to take your time.

It's also a good time to train.

After arranging the logistics, the small airship with enough "sincerity" carried the three skeletons and the gray moon deep into the insect-plagued area, and met Heine, who rushed there in Huiyu.

……

Insect-infested areas.

The leader known as Kaena, the Mother of Worms, is a beautiful creature that is half-human, half-worm.

Her upper body is a plump female body, with transparent wings on her back, and her bare skin is covered with sky-blue phosphorus pink lines, reflecting a dreamy luster.

She had hair on her head that couldn't tell if it was tentacles, or some kind of elongated sarcoma.

These things naturally droop, covering the vital points, and hanging down to the slender waist.

As for the waist down...... It's a mountain of meat.

The belly of the huge worm, which is three or four meters high, is like a granary, with a pale blue texture on the top, and the lower end is soaked in a pool of waxy yellow gelatinous material, and it is still contracting and expanding rhythmically.

At this point, everyone is in a spacious treehouse known to the player as the "boss room".

Heine stood on a high platform, eye level with Kaena.

Their path was unimpeded, and the other side gave up resistance completely.

Listening to the player's discussion, this boss known as the worm mother will basically only summon mobs throughout the whole process.

Unlike her usual production, her "spawn" during combat consumes additional vitality.

When the life force is exhausted, the boss battle is over.

But this time, apparently, this link was omitted.

Heine didn't talk nonsense, and explained the status quo in a few words.

Kaena was surprisingly calm, and there was no hint of anger in her dark eyes, which had no whites.

There is a kind of clear stupidity when you look at it......

"So, you're here for the third communication station?"

Her voice sounded exceptionally gentle, as maternal as her face.

But it doesn't quite match temperament.

"Yes." Heine nodded.

The communication station in the beast-stricken area was also purified by him.

Like the Flower Disaster Area, it was also a huge spherical Yuan Spirit Array.

Then, when he followed the silk thread of the ember in the insect plague area, he found that all the black threads were connected to Kaena's body.

"Is it a silver ball that you're looking for?" She asked.

“…… Be. ”

Heine had a bad premonition.

"That thing fused with me a long time ago."

Really......

"That's why our home is different from the other two."

Kaena said slowly, "Through that thing, I have made a connection with each of my children, and although they are also in contact with the other two communication towers, they will definitely listen to me as long as they are here." ”

She smiled at Heine.

"I can't control the little ones, but I can feel it, they like you, and it seems to be affecting me...... That's why I like it too. ”

Heine was stared at and his back was chilled.

No wonder she couldn't feel any Yuan Spirit, but she locked it up with her body......

Wait, doesn't that mean she's also a psychic!?

"You can also hear the voice of the Yuan Spirit?" He asked.

"Voice?"

Kaena shook her head.

"No, I can just feel a faint emotion."

It seems that the affinity of Yuan Ling is not too high.

But then there is a problem.

Now that the three communication stations have been purified, the path to the center has been opened.

Why not now?

Could it be that Kaena is also a pollutant to the circle?

"Do you know Quircus?" Heine asked again.

"Quarkus?" Kaena nodded, "Of course I remember, it's a very important name, and my ancestors followed it here in the first place. ”

Sure enough, there was something!

As soon as Heine pricked up his ears to listen carefully, he heard the other man say:

“…… But it's been dead for a long time, so why did you mention it all of a sudden? ”

"Dead?"

Heine was stunned.

"How did you die? When was this? ”

Kaena looked thoughtful: "Is it time...... Probably dozens, a hundred snow seasons ago? I wasn't smart enough to remember that much.

"I just remember a strange group of people coming in and building the building you're looking for around here, and since then it's been talking to us less and less.

"Then one day, he summoned us and said that he was going to die, and everyone's life would be very difficult in the future, but if you believe him, you can make a contract with him, so that even if you die, you will not be captured and eaten by that strange bird."

When it comes to "strange birds", she seems to have some lingering palpitations.

Apparently it's Hui Yu.

"What contract?" Heine asked.

"We all got a part of it, and after that, we became wiser, able to remember more, to understand more."

Heine was shocked and hurriedly asked, "Is the process of making the contract a summoning ritual where you have to chant a spell on its corpse?" ”

Kaena tilted her head.

"How do you know? Would you do that spell too? It's ......"

“Ego sum te peto et uidere queo……”

Both spoke at the same time.

Same.

This is exactly the necromancer's summoning spell.

"The dead are still alive when they see their fate, and the resurrection of the dead is close to me"

Heine breathed a sigh of relief.

Enlightened.

"......I see," he muttered.

…

Catching sheep: "Hurry, hurry, so what does he understand?" What about half of the elves in the perennial mixed human area? Hurry up and translate it! ”

The remaining two echoed one after another: "Mr. Sa, speak!" ”

Mr. Sa: "How do I know this...... Besides,I went to the same area to see all the books of the worm mother and the knife girl.,Who watches the plot? ”

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

…

Fortunately, the eldest sister came out at the critical moment.

Gray Moon couldn't help but whisper, "What are you talking about?" ”

Heine explained, "After the mages of the Courtyard of Truth came here to build a communication station, Quarkus soon died.

So it called together the creatures that had been parasitic on it all year round, and taught them necromancy.

"When the day of death comes, it divides its soul and takes a part of it."

Gray Moon frowned when she heard this: "So, those souls we saw running towards the center ......"

"Yes." Heine nodded: "That's all Quarkus's soul returning, in general, I haven't figured out the details yet, after all, consciousness and soul can't be cut...... Wait......"

Heine suddenly remembered the name of a man.

Co-founder of the Metamorphosis School

Barry Githiler's Initiator

Hunter and tree herder, and necromancer.

Also know Quarcus......

"I seem to know!"
