After hearing Shaqira's description, Hao Ren could not help but exclaim, "A brain?!"
Shaqira was startled by his exclamation. She curled her tail around Nangong Wuyue, causing the latter to scream. She then quickly let go of her tail and looked at Hao Ren in surprise. "What happened to the brain? What do you know? "
Hao Ren opened his mouth and asked a series of questions, "How big is the brain? What are its tentacles like? What happened when I fought with you? How did you... "
Before the series of questions could finish, Shaqira was already dizzy. She waved her hand and asked Hao Ren to slow down. "Stop, stop, stop... I can't react. Have you seen that kind of sea monster? Do you know where it came from? "
Hao Ren nodded solemnly. "Not only have I seen it, but I've also personally killed one... well, it should be a clone. But theoretically, that thing should not have appeared on Earth. "
Shaqira looked at the serious expression on everyone's face and knew that it was a big deal. She quickly described the appearance of the sea monster in detail, and at the same time, mentioned the process of capturing the sea monster. "The monster suddenly fell from the water dome and hit the city center. No one had seen what it was. People around the sea monster were delirious, and it could use its tentacles to attack with magic, so it caused a lot of damage. But later, Her Majesty the Queen personally led her guards to capture the monster and locked it in prison. But after that, Her Majesty the Queen's behavior began to become problematic. "
"Your Queen and her guards captured the sea monster?" Vivian's expression was very serious. "How?"
Shaqira shook her head. "I don't know. All the news was spread by the soldiers who were there. It was said that the Queen personally used magic to trap the brain. I was not there. "
Hao Ren felt something was wrong from this, and the more he thought about it, the more suspicious the whole thing became.
Let's not talk about whether the ordinary sirens, who were not good at combat, had the ability to capture the strange gigantic brain. Let's just assume that the Queen's Guards were the rare combat elites among the sirens, and they had the ability to deal with the monster. The key question was, why did the Queen of the Sirens become abnormal after the gigantic brain was defeated?
Hao Ren had dealt with that kind of 'brain monster' before. He knew that although the monster had a strong mental attack ability, this kind of attack was not long-lasting. As long as one left a certain range or destroyed the brain monster itself, the mental attack would stop. However, the Queen of the Sirens continued to act strangely after defeating the brain monster. A hundred years later, she even made a strange decision to capture her own messenger. There was probably only one possibility.
She was still affected by the brain monster to this day, and it was getting worse.
"You didn't destroy the sea monster, right?" Vivian asked before Hao Ren could say anything.
Shaqira shook her head. "No, at least the brain monster was still alive when I left more than a hundred years ago. The Queen ordered the sea monster to be locked in the dungeon at the bottom of the city, supposedly to study the monster. "
Vivian winked at Hao Ren, and the two went to the balcony together.
"I'm afraid the Queen of the Sirens has been controlled," Hao Ren said with a solemn expression. "The so-called prophecy of the Day of Return is not a prophecy of the sirens at all. It was a rumor released by the gigantic brain."
Vivian nodded gently. "And if I'm not mistaken... the current rumor of the Day of Return on the surface is a misrepresentation. The real 'return' is not what other otherworldlings think at all. Think about the Cult of Origination in Holletta — I'm afraid that's the real meaning of 'return'. "
"Return your own flesh and blood, return life to the goddess, and let all living beings in the world become a pot of broth again to erase the 'sin of life'." Hao Ren remembered the crazy teachings he saw in the 'original scripture' of the Cult of Origination. "Whether it is the Cult of Origination or the Queen of the Sirens, they are all backed by the gigantic brain... It seems that the purpose of the gigantic brain is to return all life created by the goddess of creation to chaos. But why is that? "
"Who knows? Their brains are so big. Maybe they have too many nerves." Vivian pouted. "But there are still a lot of things that can't be explained. Why was the Queen of the Sirens' first prophecy of return so vague? When the otherworldlings heard this prophecy, they all chose to pack up and prepare to return home. This is completely different from the original intention of the 'return of flesh and blood'. And how did the gigantic brain come to Earth? Why did it choose the sirens who never leave their homes as its spokesperson instead of a group of more influential people? No matter what it wants to do to the otherworldlings on this planet, it's easier to start on the surface than in the sea. Look at the sirens who came ashore, how many of them were reliable... "
Apart from anything else, Hao Ren deeply agreed with the last sentence. Those harmless water snake girls could do anything except plot and intrigue. Look at the sirens who came ashore more than a hundred years ago. Occasionally, one of them would be like Shaqira...
Hao Ren scratched his chin and thought silently. "The vague prophecy may be because the Queen was not fully controlled at that time, or the 'brain monster' wanted to cast a long line to catch a big fish. Just like in Holletta, it secretly established a Cult of Origination on the surface. But it underestimated the imagination of the otherworldlings on Earth and overestimated the ability of the sirens who came ashore. And the way it came to Earth... "
He paused, and his eyes became serious. "I'm afraid there are other gateways to the Plane of Dreams on Earth, in the deep sea."
Of course, Hao Ren could not explain why the brain monster would choose the sirens as its spokesperson, because he could not even understand why Raven 12345 would choose a clown like him as its spokesperson...
The two discussed for a while before returning to the living room. Shaqira was playing with Nangong Wuyue's tail. When Hao Ren saw this, he could not help but think of snakes. He quickly coughed to divert the two's attention. "Ahem, Shaqira, I want to discuss something with you. Can you take us to the deep sea?"
Shaqira did not react for a moment. "The deep sea?"
"The City of the Sirens." Hao Ren folded his hands and made a sincere gesture. "Don't be in a hurry to object. Listen to me: the gigantic brain you mentioned is a very dangerous creature. It will systematically destroy all life, so I'm worried that the City of the Sirens is in great danger. I've dealt with that monster before, and I know its characteristics. That guy may have controlled your Queen, so you have to take us to see it anyway. Maybe everything can be saved. "
Shaqira was stunned by Hao Ren's words, but from his expression, she knew that he was probably not joking. Thinking of the really strange things that she had experienced, she hesitated.
Nangong Wuyue gently curled her tail around the tip of Shaqira's tail. "Believe me, we won't hurt you. And I also want to see my hometown... When my mother was still alive, she always told me to stay away from the deep sea. She came ashore with you. She probably sensed that something was wrong with the Queen, so she told me not to leave the land. "
When Nangong Wuyue said this, Hao Ren remembered this, and suddenly the idea of "something was wrong in the deep sea" became even stronger. He looked into Shaqira's eyes. "I know that sirens don't like outsiders to disturb them, but this is a special situation. You've been hunted once. If you don't solve the root of the problem, are you going to hide forever?"
The others immediately followed suit. Y 'zaks said earnestly, "Girl, listen to me. You have to emancipate your mind and seek truth from facts. You can't restrict yourself by holding on to rules and regulations …"
A great demon holding the People's Daily and talking about ideological issues with a siren. The scene was as beautiful as a news broadcast.
Shaqira crossed her arms and struggled for a long time before she finally let out a long sigh. "What you guys said makes sense, and occasionally bringing a few outsiders in doesn't seem to be too serious a matter. But I have a question: Can the few of you... really solve it? "
It seemed that the biggest problem was not the rules of the city of sirens, but Shaqira could not believe that these people could really help. She did not doubt that something had happened in the city of the deep sea. After all, she knew the abnormality of her hometown better than anyone else. She was also willing to believe that these people in front of her did not mean any harm. After all, they had just helped her heal. She just did not believe that these people could solve the problem of the entire city.
