The flames were burning and the black stone emitted a bright and warm light. There was no smell at all.
"A day has passed and she still hasn't come back."
Suddenly, Shia, who was fetching water, came in from the cave. Heilig sat in front of the bonfire and looked at the spear head engraved with words.
Mr. Rabbit was sleeping on the side with nothing to do.
"You don't have any fever, right?"
Shia came in and asked. Heilig came back to his senses and slowly put down the spear head.
"No, thanks to your treatment, I feel much better now."
"I just did my best. Speaking of which, will Reina be okay?"
"Don't worry about that guy. She is very powerful. Even Wu Ku is not her opponent. Rather than worrying about her, it is better to worry about our current situation."
Mr. Rabbit suddenly waved his hand.
"You are a Hybrid Demon, right? Shouldn't you be safe here?"
Shia frowned and asked in confusion.
"Of course not! Different species of Hybrid Demons will kill each other. You don't even know this. In the past, it was still okay. At least I knew where I couldn't go. But now, do you know? Everything has changed after those flying insect Hybrid Demons appeared. "
Mr. Rabbit sat up and complained endlessly. He had a lot to say, as if he couldn't finish talking.
"Hybrid Demon army, how much do you know about them?"
Heilig asked indifferently. He was still using his left hand to repeatedly play with the iron spear head. Perhaps he was getting used to the situation with only one hand.
"I don't know at all. But what I can be sure of is that these guys are different from me or the previous Hybrid Demons. At least I can't feel anything in common with them."
Shia, who was boiling water, raised her head and asked.
"Instincts. Although you call us Mantis Demons, we also have the most basic of living creatures. One of them is instincts. For example, when your finger is pricked, your body will automatically retract your hand. That is instincts."
"Of course we know this, but what does this have to do with what you said?"
Heilig knew that he liked to talk nonsense. He didn't like to waste time at this time.
"It has a lot to do with it! They don't have this instinct! Even if you pull out their teeth in front of them, they won't even frown, if they have eyebrows. "
"This may also mean that they don't feel pain, just like the Distorted Demons."
"No! They were different! I mean, they don't even have fear. Twisted Demons have fear. Even if they aren't afraid of pain, sometimes they are afraid of death. It's just that their brains don't let them realize most dangerous situations. "
Mister Rabbit was a little excited. He wanted to prove that he was different from the Hybrid Demon army.
Shia pinched her chin as she began to think.
"Speaking of which, since they can form an army, they must have a language to communicate with. That … Mr, Mr Rabbit?"
"Just call me Big Brother Rabbit."
"A stupid rabbit is fine too."
"Hey! Don't think I like this name! I know what that word means! I am the smartest of the Mantis Demons! "
"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's get back to the main topic. Mr. Rabbit, how do you think those Hybrid Demons communicate?"
Heilig found that Shea's attitude had changed. Before, she was still so … annoying, but now she was polite.
"I don't know. They didn't communicate at all."
Mr. Rabbit shook his head. He was very good at observation. When he was hiding in the mountains, he had been observing the new generation of Hybrid Demons. But they were like wood. There was no way to understand their behavior.
"That's impossible. Without effective language, how can they form an orderly army?"
"I think so too. At least they won't be like a swarm of bees. They must have a leader and discipline. And what supports all of this is effective communication."
Heilig nodded.
Mr. Rabbit shook his head and said, "Definitely not. I've observed them for so long. They don't even touch each other. If you want to talk about communication, these days, the creator's voice seems to be much more frequent. "
As he said that, his ears moved.
"Voice? Creator? "Shia heard this for the first time.
"That is the source of the abyss. The demon that created these Hybrid Demons is still sealed and can't leave for the time being. But I don't hear anything. "
"Do you think my ears are just for decoration!? Really, oh! I forgot that you can't hear its voice. Only our Hybrid Demons can. Hehe ~ "
Mr. Rabbit scratched his head awkwardly, but his words made Shia and Heilig's ears perk up.
"Tell me about that voice! What, what is it saying? "
"I don't understand."
"Ah?!"
Shia and Heilig both opened their mouths wide.
"I used to understand it, but ever since we stopped following its instructions, it has switched to a different language."
Mr. Rabbit shrugged.
The two seemed to have thought of something. These voices might be related to the Hybrid Demon army.
"Can you hear it from anywhere?"
"How is that possible? If I could hear it from anywhere, I would be annoyed to death. I can only barely hear it when I'm so close. Farther away … Speaking of which, it's strange. Its voice seems to be much louder now, and it comes from different directions."
Hearing this, Heilig's eyes widened. He looked at Shia, and the latter nodded at him.
Perhaps the one controlling the Hybrid Demons was the so-called Artisan!
"It's a voice?"
Suddenly, he thought of the Hybrid Demons that surrounded Reina and the others. Those Hybrid Demons that surrounded the foot of the mountain but did not dare to go up.
"Right! When you were on the mountain, did you hear a voice? "
"No, I can't hear it clearly."
"Damn it! Those Hybrid Demons are chess pieces! This war is just one of its chess pieces! "
Heilig suddenly became angry. When he thought of the countless people that died in this war, he was furious. He lowered his head and tried to calm himself down. He saw the spearhead in his hand …
"Wait! You said that you can't hear anything from the mountain. "
"Yes."
"But the Hybrid Demons reached the Stairway to Heaven. That's not right. That mountain is so close. Why would … Wait? Seal? Who is the sealed guy mentioned in the letter? "
Heilig held the spearhead and looked at the words on it. He was very excited at this moment. His eyes were wide open.
Perhaps this was fate. This was a prophecy. This was definitely not an ordinary coincidence.
"It's a terrifying guy. To be honest, it doesn't even seem to be a living creature. It emits the aura of an creator …"
Mr. Rabbit told him what happened that day. Although there was a lot of nonsense in the middle, Heilig was very happy to listen. He even wanted to hug him and kiss him fiercely.
"I know! I know! I know how to deal with these Hybrid Demons! "
He stood up excitedly and looked at the spearhead in his hand.
"First, we have to bring this letter back …"
