Last Totem Novel - Chapter 320
Chapter 320 Abrupt Change
The ants immediately stopped eating and raised their triangular heads. They waved their tiny antennae to identify the direction of the fluctuations in the air. A few seconds later, they determined their direction and immediately rushed over. Along with the advancement of the ant colony, the fluctuations in the air suddenly became weak. From the beginning, the anger gradually turned into cowardice …
In the next moment, a small mountain slowly appeared in the perception of the ant colony. As they approached, the small hill gradually became clear. It was a giant termite with a thick waist, an incomparably large milky white abdomen, and slender knuckles.
The moment he saw the termite queen, the colony of soldiers instantly exploded like a pot. Driven by instinct, they excitedly let out a “squeak” sound at the termite queen. At this moment, they were like a group of rogues with red eyes and saliva on the corners of their mouths, staring fixedly at the terrified Queen of Destruction and whistling.
Sensing the restlessness of the army, Tie Zha immediately changed his mind and commanded them to pounce. In an instant, hundreds of soldiers crawled up to the plump abdomen of the Termite Empress, opened their sharp teeth, and began to clench their teeth crazily. The milky-white mucus immediately splashed everywhere, and a shrill hissing sound sounded, echoing in the empty passageway for a long time.
Not long after, the painful cries of sorrow were gradually replaced by weak cries of sorrow. The iron slag seemed to sense some kind of pleading signal through the ant colony, just like when it met the golden sandworm “Squeakkkk” in the sand sea. Feeling that there was a possibility of communication, Tie Zha commanded the ant colony to stop biting, and the ant colony immediately retreated like a tide.
Then, Tie Zha commanded a soldier ant to step forward alone and release a friendly secretion. However, just as the Termite Empress recovered her breath, she let out a loud scream and bent down to bite the ant in front of her. Tie Zha immediately frowned and commanded the army to pounce on the termite queen. In the end, the termite queen was torn into pieces. It seemed that what the textbook had said was correct. The species in the Abyss were basically savage, unable to communicate with each other.
According to biologists, the special environment of the bottomless abyss tends to drive creatures berserk and bloodthirsty, often affecting species with lower IQ. And not only that, but as the bio-level increases, the impact on them will multiply exponentially.
In the multiverse, it is the instinct of a species to pursue powerful forces and evolve to higher planes. There were always two major directions in the evolution of species. One was “evolution without intelligence”, the other was “evolution with intelligence preserved”. The former method was relatively simple and crude. It was to absorb energy crazily and produce qualitative changes with “quantitative changes”. During this process, most creatures would lose their minds and become non-intelligent creatures that acted according to their instincts. The Abyss Devil Dragon and the Abyss Great Devil were examples of these creatures. Compared to the former, the latter was more difficult. They had to learn how to use energy step by step and comprehend the mysteries of life. Epiphany produced a qualitative change, and one of them was a Saint Psionic Adept.
However, because the air in the abyss contained extremely high density of energy, which could be directly absorbed and utilized by high-grade species, it would induce them to indulge in the abyss environment and give birth to endless greed for power, thus losing their minds and becoming prisoners of power. In short, the stronger the species in the abyss, the more temptations they would face. Therefore, Saint-ranked experts in humans generally wouldn’t stay in the bottomless abyss for long, lest they be controlled by violent bloodthirsty emotions, lose their souls, and degenerate into creatures that depended on their instincts.
After cleaning the termite nest, Tie Zha twisted his neck, mounted the red comet, and returned to the stronghold.
At the same time, in the living room of a villa on the Babylonian Garden Avenue of the Central Silver City Military Academy, Eva Green, the assistant president of the Student Union, was chatting casually with a handsome young silver-haired man while drinking red wine. This man had a sword-browed eyebrow, starry eyes, and heroic aura. He was the eldest brother of the current Temple Princess, Eugene Lombar.
“Beautiful Miss Green, Rose of the Temple, your friend is in a little trouble. May I take the liberty of asking?” Eugene put down his glass of red wine and asked seriously.
“I don’t remember when …” Eva glanced at Eugene and pointed at him. “I have a friend who is a liar.”
Eugene smiled embarrassedly and said, “You must forgive me for laughing at what happened last time.” He paused and thought of the appropriate wording before continuing, “Ignorance …”
“Is it ignorance?” Eva asked.
“I think …” Eugene said sincerely. “It should be.”
“Alright” Eva sighed and glanced at him with the corner of her eyes. “For the sake of four years of schoolmates.”
“Thank you,” Eugene smiled and raised his glass to signal, “I wish us a happy cooperation.”
“If you have any instructions, please tell me, although I think the chances of being happy are slim.” Eva said unhappily.
“Here’s the thing …” Eugene looked meaningfully in the direction of Twilight Manor and said, “My father, Yoga Lombar’s father, asked me to investigate Tie Zha’s identity and rule out the possibility that he was an insecticide.”
After listening to Eugene’s narrative, Eva was immediately shocked, but on the surface, she calmly lengthened her voice and said, “So …” She smiled and asked, “You want me to investigate for you?”
“Oh … Miss Green, you are truly worthy of the reputation of a Temple Master Teacher. In my opinion, your intelligence is no less than your beauty …” Eugene smiled and praised.
‘”Don’t come” Eva frowned and said seriously, “I am a member of Her Highness the Princess, and I am also a member of the Wilderness Knights. Aren’t you afraid that I will give you the wrong information?”
Eugene put away his smile and said seriously, “I believe in the wisdom of Temple Rose. If you even protect him, then …” Even if he is a monster, he should still be a monster of value. ”
“If that’s all the Golden Duke is worried about, I think you can rest assured. He is neither an insect nor a monster. He is just an ordinary psionic martial artist.” Eva said.
“How did you judge it?” Eugene asked.
“I’m responsible for myself, understand?” Eva leaned forward and whispered.
Eugene couldn’t help but sigh as he revealed a surprised expression. “Oh my God …”
“Don’t tell your sister. Thank you.” Eva smiled sweetly and added.
Before Eugene could recover from his shock, his communicator suddenly rang.
“Dudu … Dudu … Dudu … Dudu … Dudu … Dudu … Dudu … Dudu …”
He opened the screen and saw that it was You Ge’s voice communication. She didn’t expect Little Sister’s information to be so well-informed. She had only just gotten off the aircraft when she found out.
“Brother, come here for a moment. I have something I need to talk to you about.” After getting through, Little Sister’s clear voice came from over there.
“Alright.” Eugene replied straightforwardly. He didn’t dare to neglect this little devil, especially not long ago, there was a gap between the siblings because of the matter with Tie Zha.
‘”Good thing ~ I asked you to escort a beauty home ~” You Ge added, “Didn’t you yearn for her before? Now that I’ve given you a chance, you should make good use of it ~”
“Muyu Ling Lan?” Eugene suddenly jumped up and asked.
“Bingo!” You Ge snaps his fingers.
“Alright, I’ll be right there!” Eugene said hurriedly with a pleasantly surprised expression on his face.
Afterwards, Eva looked at Eugene Lombar’s hurried departure and couldn’t help but curse in a low voice, “What a big and small pair of demons!”
An hour ago …
The cool summer breeze blew gently through the quiet garden and through the deep path, causing the petals to tremble slightly. Under the curtain of night, the Whispering Manor was as calm as ever, as if everything was sleeping peacefully.
“Push! Push! Push! Push! Push!”
In silence, a burst of hurried footsteps suddenly came from far to near and quickly disappeared from the porch.
Seconds later, an urgent and urgent letter was delivered to the owner of the manor. In this era of highly developed communications, sending messages in such a primitive manner was a matter of great importance, and it was a matter of deep secrecy.
Opening the letter, there was only one line of words and one sentence on the snow-white paper.
“Sacrificial Priest is seriously ill, please return quickly.”
The instant he saw the news, Mu Yu Ling Lan, who had always been as calm as a mountain, actually felt his feet soften and he almost couldn’t stand firmly. For a moment, the grief of losing a loved one, as well as the complicated and messy considerations, pressed down on her like mountains and seas …
After dozens of breaths, Mu Yu Ling Lan gradually regained her calm. Afterwards, she called Mu Yu Qin Xin and handed the letter over.
“Mother” Mu Yuqinxin took her hand and took a glance. The tears flowed out uncontrollably and fell to the ground along her delicate face. This simple sentence was as heavy as a thousand juns. Because this meant that their adoptive mother was about to die.
“Xiaoqing, arrange the Yuze and prepare to set off at any time.” After Mu Yuqin calmed down, Mu Yu Ling Lan instructed in a deep voice.
“Yes.” Mu Yuqin answered with tears in her eyes.
‘”Also, I have to go to Twilight Manor” Mu Yu Ling Lan said quietly, as if she was talking to herself.
“What’s the matter?” Mu Yuqin was puzzled.
“I want to tell the princess …” Halfway through, Mu Yu Ling Lan stopped. After pondering for a while, she took a deep breath, clenched her fists, and said resolutely, “Borrow troops.”
The sudden death of her mother had already disrupted all of her rhythms, and the originally stable structure of Silver City No. 13 had also shattered in an instant. She could only give up everything and return to the Divine Rain Prayer Palace. However, at this moment, she had yet to enter the Saint Stage, so whether she could successfully enter the Rain Prayer Divine Hall was still unknown.
Over the years, the forces of the Rain Prayer Temple had mixed in with the forces of Silver City No. 13. Even if they were loyal to the Rain Prayer Sacrifice, they would remain neutral in the internal struggles of their successors. Under such circumstances, she and Mu Yuqinxin had nothing but the support of the nuns.
