His days in the prison were not pleasant. Although it was very quiet, Hailig could not fall asleep every night. It was frighteningly quiet, but at the same time, he could hear countless voices that made him restless.
His own thoughts.
In the past few days, he had been thinking all the time. What if he guessed wrong and there was no threat from the Hybrid Demon army? Would he have to stay here for the rest of his life? As a hunter, he should not want the Hybrid Demon army to appear. He knew that it would mean destruction. He could not imagine how terrifying a disciplined army of monsters would be.
Apart from that, he also thought of Chestnut. Did anyone take care of it while he was in the prison? As for Lena, who was left on the second floor, he hoped that nothing would happen to her.
"Come with me."
Elder Maza led Hailig out of the prison. The moment he walked outside, the dazzling light made him almost unable to open his eyes.
There were many busy hunters. Many flying Magic Eagles appeared in the sky, carrying many weapons and resources. The hunters and soldiers of the Beehive were busy moving all kinds of boxes and weapons.
Seeing this scene, Hailig finally realized the seriousness of the problem. The Hybrid Demon Army had really appeared. He believed that the elders would definitely be in an uproar right now.
Hailig's mouth curved. To be honest, he did not have a good impression of those arrogant elders. Of course, other than Great Elder Qiu Zhong and Elder Maza.
Perhaps Elder Maza sensed Heilig's thoughts. She suddenly stopped but didn't say anything. She waited for Heilig to lower his head with a straight face before she continued to walk.
The two of them silently arrived at the back mountain of the Hive. Hailig had never been here before because it was forbidden. No one knew what was inside.
Clearly, there was something unusual here. There was a beautiful stone road on the mountain that led all the way to the Roar Mountain. The weeds on the side of the road were also cleaned. The road was very clean.
Hailig was led to a strange house with doubts. To be exact, it was not because of its unique shape, but because it was like a thatched house. The person who lived here had the ability to build such a beautiful road, but the house was so broken. This was the strangest part.
There was still a wisp of smoke in the house, and strings of dried plants were hanging outside the house.
Elder Maza suddenly stopped in her tracks. She turned around and reminded him in a low voice, "When you see Lady Keluo later, don't speak nonsense. Answer whatever she asks. You don't have to say anything else. Do you understand?"
Koro Koro? That great prophet?
Hailig was startled. Ke Luo Ke Luo was a prophet elder of the Lesser Dragon Tribe. He had heard that the things she had predicted had all happened. Most of them were natural disasters, even including the invasion of the Hybrid Demons.
However, it was rumored that she was an extremely eccentric person who hated interacting with other people. Hailig hadn't heard any news about her for a long time. The last time he heard about her was when he was only six or seven years old in his original tribe. He didn't expect her to still be alive.
Moreover, he actually lived in the back mountain of the Honeycomb.
"Go in."
Elder Maza stood at the door and looked at Helig. It seemed like he had no intention of entering.
"Aren't you going in?"
Hellig frowned and asked. To be honest, he was a little worried.
"She asked to see you by name, not me or anyone else."
The elder shook his head and revealed a helpless expression.
It seemed that this great prophet's status was much higher than the elders.
Hellig nodded. He mustered up his courage and walked to the door. He even looked back.
He reached out his right hand and was about to knock on the door when an old woman's voice suddenly came from inside.
"I won't eat you. Hurry up and come in!"
Hellig finally understood why the elder didn't want to go in. This old woman had a bad temper.
He took a deep breath and pushed the door open.
The inside was very simple. There was a pot in the middle of the room. Other than a bed and a cabinet, there were only some bottles and jars left.
Prophet Keluo stood in front of the pot. She was an old Lesser Dragon. The scales on her body were white and falling off. She was very thin, and her back was bent like a camel's hump.
"You're the hunter who rang the bell?"
"Yes, it's me," Hellig replied.
Hellig replied. He stood at the door with his head lowered and his back bent. His face was full of uneasiness.
Seeing this, Prophet Keluo sneered and said, "Hmph, a strong young man is afraid of a dying old thing like me. Useless guy."
The old woman's words were unpleasant, but Hellig didn't dare to say anything. Besides, what she said made sense.
"Hurry up and sit down. Why are you standing at the door like an idiot?"
Keluo scolded again. Hellig didn't know what to do. He just nodded and walked into the room.
There were no chairs here. He could only sit on the ground with his back facing the door.
The old man had been busy. He put the things in this jar into another jar or threw some strange things into the smoking pot. The smell in the room was very unpleasant. There was the smell of herbs.
At this time, she was holding a small jar and sprinkling some green powder into the pot. The color of the flames changed immediately. The boiling pot emitted a pungent smell.
Hellig couldn't help but cough in a low voice. The old woman put down the jar and clapped her hands.
"Caldera is going to be destroyed."
She calmly said these shocking words. Hellig's eyes widened. These words came from the mouth of a prophet. It wasn't funny.
"This … Is the world going to be destroyed?"
Hailig was so nervous that he even forgot what he wanted to say. He wanted to ask if it was true. He wanted to ask if there was a way to change it, but in the end, he said something ridiculous.
"The world? Hmph, you don't need to worry about the world. Only we will be destroyed. The Hybrid Demon Army you're talking about, they'll kill us all. "
"Is there no one who can stop them?"
"There is, of course there is. There are many. The Demon King, the Hero, and even the so-called God. But they are not in Caldera."
The old woman laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "Caldera is the place that hates God the most. Do you know why?"
Hellig shook his head. Indeed, the races here didn't have any faith in God. Although there were prophets, they believed in magic and their own hands more.
However, Luo Xianzhi glanced at Hellig and then turned around. She picked up another jar and sniffed it.
Suddenly, she sighed and said, "A long, long time ago, this place was the center of the world. A supreme emperor lived here. He ruled the world and no one dared to disobey him. Our ancestors were his servants, serving him and living a life like a paradise. At that time, there was no war in the world. There were no Heroes or Demon King. That emperor was the only Demon King in the world. He was also the only faith of our ancestors. But everything was destroyed by those Gods. "
"This is a tragic story. That war made the world tremble. The Gods erased the world's memories, but our ancestors were the only ones who remembered that part of history. They believed that the real Demon King would return one day, so they stayed here and waited for their master to return. But one day, a guy who called himself the Great Sage came to this remote place and told our ancestors that he had a way to make the Demon King return … "
However, Luo suddenly turned around and looked at Hellig, saying, "Our ancestors were deceived. They didn't summon the Demon King, but something from hell …"
