Regardless of how Angor and the others reacted to Pi Xi's words, Zi Gua was already very excited.
His green cheeks even turned pink from excitement.
For Zigua, his greatest pride was his sense of "moral honor," and it was precisely because of this sense of honor that he could not be greedy for petty gains.
However, the dark side of this sense of honor gave birth to a new sense of self-worth, which was called "shame".
Zi Gua was a man of high morals, but he was also ashamed of his own race. He always felt that others would look down on him because he was a member of the Peluxiu race, so he subconsciously covered his appearance.
People thought it was "shyness", but it was actually "shame". This was his inferiority toward his own race.
Moreover, under the influence of this shame, he did not have much sympathy for his fellow clansmen.
This caused Zi Gua's heart to be filled with complicated and contradictory emotions.
He was proud of what he had done, but at the same time, he felt inferior and ashamed of his birth. However, his shame never deviated from the pride in his heart.
It sounded strange, and it was true. Zi Gua's heart was twisted like this.
Pi Xi's words alone were definitely not enough to ease the twisting in Zi Gua's heart. However, Pi Xi's words gave Zi Gua a sense of "recognition".
In the past, he always thought that his sense of moral honor would become the source of ridicule for his fellow Peluxiu race.
But now, he realized that there was someone who understood him.
And this person was Mister Pi Xi!
Zi Gua never thought that he would be praised by Pi Xi! Not only did such a big shot remember his story, but he also knew many details about him.
This feeling of being recognized instantly lifted his spirits. How could he not be excited? How could he not be excited?
Pi Xi only patted Zi Gua's shoulder with a smile, as if he was saying, "Good job, young man. I have faith in you."
This made Zi Gua even more emotional.
Luigi mumbled on the side, "What's going on? Let's go. "
Angor smiled and did not say anything. His Beyonder Senses read something interesting from Pi Xi and Zi Gua's emotions.
Zi Gua was not as pure as Pi Xi said.
Pi Xi didn't care so much about this fool.
Although their emotions ran counter to each other, the greeting on the surface gave both of them some sort of spiritual satisfaction.
Wasn't that interesting?
Pici also heard Luigi's muttering. He put away his slightly proud mood because of Luigi's "worshipping" gaze and said seriously, "Luigi, let's get back to the topic. When you came, Pi Erdan should have told you about the requests of these esteemed guests. "
Zhi Gua quickly nodded. "I know. I've brought the Behemoth here. "
"Behemoth? Pi Xi was stunned. What kind of name was that?
Pi Erdan quickly explained, "Naksu is a Behemoth. "
Pi Xi frowned and looked at Zigua. "You named it? "
Zhi Gua shook his head. "No, it said so. "
Pi Erdan had clearly asked about the situation on the way here. Without waiting for Zi Gua to explain, he said first, "It's like this, sirs. After Naxu was assigned to Zhi Gua, Zhi Gua asked him for his name. Naxu didn't say that he was Naxu, instead, he gave himself a new name, which was the current Behemoth. "Behemoth?"
"Behemoth …" Pi Xi said, "What does that mean? That's strange. " "Behemoth?"
Both Zhi Gua and Pi Erdan shook their heads. They didn't know the name either.
Angor also heard the name. He felt that it sounded familiar, but he didn't think he had heard of it before.
Laplace, on the other hand, raised his eyebrows when he heard this name. He whispered in the Spirit Bond, "There's an ancient god in the Drauna Plane called Behemoth. "
"The Drauna Plane?" Angor also replied through the Spirit Bond, "You mean the plane that worships totems and worships beast-shaped gods?" "
La
Laplace nodded. "That's right. The beast god of the Drauna Plane is also called an Outer God. Behemoth is an ancient Outer God. But … "
Laplace paused. "… He disappeared tens of thousands of years ago." "
"Disappeared? Is he dead? " Luigi asked curiously.
Laplace shook his head. "I don't know. No one saw if he died. However, many of the tribes that worshipped the Behemoth totem lost their divine protection after the disappearance of the Behemoth. In such a situation, either the gods had fallen, or the gods no longer protected the mortal world, or they had left the Drunar Plane. "
"It's been so many years. I don't think there are any tribes that worship Behemoth anymore. "
At least, Laplace didn't see any tribes that worshipped Behemoth in the Empty Mirror Sea.
Laplace learned about Behemoth from the murals in the ruins of the Drauna Plane.
"No. There are still tribes that worship Behemoth. "
While listening to Laplace's explanation, Angor realized why the name sounded so familiar.
Laplace looked at Angor in confusion.
"In the southern region, there's a continent called Ferran, far away from the Fey Continent. There are many primitive tribes in the central region of the continent, and some of them worship Behemoth. " "Luigi?"
"They're all humans?" "Yes."
Angor nodded. Since they're in the southern region, they must be humans.
"Behemoth is no longer a religion in the Sharps' world. I didn't think that humans would worship Behemoth …"
"That's normal, actually." For the Sharps in the Drauna Plane, worship was to gain power and protection. Without power and protection, it was normal for them to worship other totems. As for the humans living in the wizarding world, they were already well-protected. Their belief was to find a pillar in their hearts. "
"As long as the pillar in their hearts doesn't fall, their belief will continue. "
Luigi rubbed his chin. "So human belief is purer?" "Yes.
But it's also more obscure and twisted, "Laplace said. Laplace: "Because wizards can't let the hands of gods reach the southern region, many times, the beliefs of humans can't necessarily point to the corresponding gods. During the process of worship, wizards will do something to it. " "Yes.
"That's right. Some tribes on Ferran Continent believe in totems given to them by wizards themselves. The names used were the names of the Wild Gods and Outer Gods, but the appearance of the totems pointed to the Wizard himself. "Yes."
Wizards didn't believe in gods, but that didn't stop them from studying the power of belief.
The reason why Ferran Continent had so many primitive beliefs was that it was a research ground for wizards.
This was the so-called obscurity and distortion of belief.
Luigi: "In this comparison, the Sorcerers' schemes and methods are still stronger than these Outer Gods. "Alright.
Let's talk about Behemoth. " Luigi: "I previously guessed that Naksu's ancestors might have had a powerful bloodline, and now Naksu named himself Behemoth. Behemoth was a 'beast' god in Drauna Plane, and Naksu was also a beast. Does that mean Naksu is related to this Behemoth god? " "Alright.
"… That's not it." "Alright.
It's like the Mirror Dragon doll looked similar to the Mirror Dragon, so the Mirror Dragon doll had the same power as the Mirror Dragon?
That was obviously wrong.
But then again, whether it was naming itself Naksu or Behemoth, this invention mouse seemed to have some unexpected meanings when it came to naming itself.
There was no way to prove Naksu's uniqueness through naming, but it was still worth observing.
Luigi looked at Ziggy. "Behemoth or Naksu, the name doesn't matter. The important thing is where it is. "Alright.
I have it with me. Please wait. " "Okay."
As he spoke, Zhi Gua came to the side and began to retch at the empty space.
Judging from Ziggy's reaction, he was taking something out of the Golden Belly.
Luigi looked at his black face.
Ziggy spat out an iron cage from his mouth. As soon as the iron cage was outside, it began to expand with the wind and soon returned to its normal size.
Ziggy came back with the cage.
"Behemoth is inside, my lords." Ziggy handed the cage to Luigi.
Luigi didn't take it immediately. Instead, he carefully inspected the cage to make sure there was no dirty liquid on it.
He knew the Golden Belly didn't have to go through the esophagus to retrieve something, so it shouldn't be contaminated. But for the sake of peace, Luigi still had to check.
The cage was covered with a thin layer of black cloth, so he couldn't see what was inside.
But from the soft breathing inside, he knew that there was indeed a creature in the cage.
After Luigi received the cage, he didn't hesitate to remove the black cloth outside, revealing the true appearance of Naksu Behemoth Inventor Rat.
As Naksu's true face was revealed, Luigi was stunned for a few seconds.
After a while, Luigi realized something. "It looks like it's atavistic too?" "Huh?"
The mouse in the cage was different from the Inventor Mice brought by Pi Erdan. It looked more like a small hamster.
It had grayish-brown fur all over its body, with a few tufts of white and golden fur on its head.
Apart from not being as fat as the Golden Belly Bear, everything else was similar.
"The Inventor Mouse we saw before had pure white fur, but this one is grayish-brown." "Apart from the difference in fur color, everything else is the same." Luigi whispered.
The small hamster squatting in the cage didn't look up. But after hearing Luigi's description, its round little ears twitched.
It looked outside.
It was no longer surrounded by Peluxiu. Instead, it was being stared at by a group of … humans.
In its memory, humans were no different from Peluxiu. It looked at the humans outside and lowered its head again.
"It does look like the Inventor Mouse." Angor spoke up as well.
Luigi said, "That Inventor Mouse looked exactly like Pi Feifei. This one, on the other hand, looks exactly like Pi Feifei except for the difference in fur color and being a bit thinner. Since it looks like Pi Feifei, it's atavistic too, right? " Angor complained.
"Pi Feifei is an 'atavistic' already, huh?" Luigi asked.
"I mean, let's use Pi Feifei as a benchmark." "Okay.
Angor wanted to say that Pi Feifei wasn't worth much as a benchmark. After all, the Golden Belly Bear looked just like Pi Feifei.
But he didn't want to embarrass himself in front of Luigi, so he didn't say it out loud.
Luigi and Angor didn't hide their conversation.
Not only did the outsiders hear it, even Naxu in the cage heard it.
Pi Feifei … and the Inventor Mouse that looked exactly like Pi Feifei …
Naksu suddenly realized something. He stood up from the corner and looked at Luigi and Angor who were standing outside the door.
It wanted to say something, but when it thought about its identity, it couldn't say anything.
It was a bit listless just now, but now it stood up. Luigi lowered his head and looked at Naksu in the cage. "Hey, little guy, you should be able to understand us, right?" "
Naksu didn't say anything. It only let out a low growl.
"That Inventor Mouse just spoke in a squeaky voice, but this one turned into a subwoofer," Luigi muttered. "What a contrast," Luigi murmured. "Alright.
Angor added in his mind. One sounded like a tough guy, while the other sounded like a tough guy.
"I heard you gave yourself two names. One is Naksu, and the other is Behemoth? What do you want people to call you? "Alright.
Luigi kept asking.
Naksu in the cage was very slow, like a fool whose mind was overloaded. After a long time, he said, "… Behemoth." "Alright."
"Behemoth?" Luigi's eyes narrowed. "What does Behemoth mean? "Alright.
Naksu — or Behemoth — lowered its head and didn't say anything.
At this moment, Zhi Gua said, "Behemoth is like this. If I ask it a hundred questions, it will answer me one at most. It was as if it had suffered from a serious illness before, and its originally intelligent mind had become dull and dull. "Huh?"
"Illness?" Luigi looked at Pierre in confusion. Pierre didn't say that Behemoth was sick. He only said that it was pretending to be sick.
Pi Erdan was also dumbfounded. "Has it ever been sick? I … I didn't hear anything about it. " "Yes.
Lizgua: Yes, I heard from the people in the Chamber of Commerce that it was very sick before. Its whole body was burning up. Originally, its fur was grey and gold. Later, the gold fur fell off, leaving only a small tuft on the top of its head. All that was left was grey fur. "Huh?"
Pi Erdan obviously didn't know about this. He frowned and asked, "Do you know what illness it has? "Huh?"
Luigi shook his head. "I don't know. But maybe its brain was damaged after it got sick. It used to be smart, but now it's quiet and stupid. " "Huh?"
Zhi Gua sighed with emotion as he spoke.
If Behemoth's brain wasn't damaged because of the illness, the chamber of commerce wouldn't sell it.
After all, Behemoth was the closest thing to Pi Feifei's Inventor Mouse.
While Luigi and Pierre talked, Angor kept an eye on Behemoth.
Illness? Fever? Brain damage? Angor wasn't sure if the first two questions were true. But he didn't believe that Behemoth's brain was damaged.
