Chapter 1021 The leader of the strange beasts was once a human
Luo Du saw the incredibly cheap amulet in his hand and curled his lips: "You still believe in this!"
"Anyway, if you believe it, it will work, and if you don't believe it, it won't work! Who knows, it might really be useful!" Kong Asan hinted at something.
Luo Du looked at Kong Asan's weird look and curled his lips: "What the hell..."
Forget it, forget it. I'm already in the same boat with Kong Asan. Even if I want to leave, it may not be easy.
If that's the case, then it's better to just go with the flow.
"So, shall we go meet the leader of these strange beasts next?" Luo Du made small talk, but his hand very honestly put the cheap amulet away.
Kong Asan nodded with an expression that said, "This child is teachable."
……
I have to say that the map in Kong Asan's hand is really useful.
Because of this map, they bypassed the guards and traps along the way and went straight to the location of the monster leader.
The road was smooth and unobstructed, and Luo Du even began to doubt whether he was here for a picnic.
Not to mention, except for the narrow corridors here, there is no darkness or dampness like when entering and exiting the nest.
There is even plenty of light, and the builders wished they could illuminate all the dark corners.
"How strange..." Luo Du muttered.
The closer he got to the area where the leader was, the more Luo Du felt that everything here was familiar.
But I can't remember where I saw these.
He thought to himself: If I have seen something similar, I should be able to remember where I saw it, but why can't I remember it?
"You feel it's familiar too, right?" Kong Asan seemed to have seen what Luo Du was thinking and spoke slowly.
Before Luo Du could figure out what Kong Asan meant, he heard Kong Asan continue speaking.
Kong Asan didn't hold back and directly expressed his thoughts: "Whether it's the layout here or the decorations in the corridor, don't you think they are similar to most of the ones in the Garden of Bright Eden?"
Hearing this, Luo Du reacted instantly. Indeed, all the decorations in the corridor, as well as the plane of the map, coincidentally had many similarities with the Garden of Bright Eden.
It is no exaggeration to say that the architectural style of this underground nest is directly copied from the architecture in the Garden of Bright Eden.
"But why?" This was the answer to the question that Luo Du couldn't figure out no matter how hard he tried.
Why is it?
Just as Luo Du was lost in thought, a strange opossum beast suddenly appeared, seemingly having anticipated their arrival.
"You two have come from afar. Our leader has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come in with us!"
Luo Du was shocked when he heard this.
A strange beast that can speak human language.
It was not the kind of cunning beast they had seen before, which mimicked human cries for help to hunt enemies.
But it is a real monster with its own thoughts and the ability to speak human language.
Luo Du suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
Horrible, really terrible.
If such a strange beast that can speak human language can also mimic humans and disguise itself to enter the Garden of Bright Eden, can anyone really tell the difference between the two?
Luo Du unexpectedly thought of the fact that the Ji Tower had been sealed for three days.
He had returned to the Garden of Bright Eden before, and after hearing about this kind of thing happening, he was very curious.
He wanted to hack into the system to see what was going on, but when he hacked in secretly, he found that the description of the incident was vague.
"Come back to your senses. They invited us in. We can't just stand here. Otherwise, it would be very impolite." Kong Asan patted the distracted Luo Du and said with a smile.
Luo Du wanted to say something but stopped himself.
After a moment, he sighed and followed Kong Asan resignedly.
Although, he knew that if he went in with Kong Asan, he would definitely learn something that would challenge his cognition.
But it’s too late to retreat now!
Since we are here, we should make the best of it. It is better to just follow Kong Asan honestly...
Luo Du felt a little melancholy.
Kong Asan had no idea how active Luo Du's mental activities were at the moment. He calmly followed the strange beast in front of him and walked into the "palace" in the center of the nest.
In this huge palace, there is a rat monster as strong as four or five adults, sitting on the throne made of bones.
The strange beasts beside it respectfully fed it a huge piece of meat, allowing their king to enjoy the juicy and fat meat.
"Wow..." Luo Du couldn't help but exclaimed as he looked at the opossum monster leader who didn't even raise his eyelids.
His body was as big as a small mountain, and I had no idea how much meat he had to consume in a day to be satisfied.
While Luo Du was daydreaming, he suddenly heard Kong Asan say something beside him, "Chief, I don't mean to offend you, but... do you still consider yourself a human being?"
This sentence was like a huge wave, making Luo Du's cognition shaky.
What do you mean?
How is it possible that the thing opposite is a human?
The opossum leader, who had swallowed the steak in one gulp, sneered after hearing what Kong Asan said:
"You're really interesting! A normal person wouldn't be able to say such strange things to a beast!"
"So I'm not a normal person!" Kong Asan said confidently.
The atmosphere at the scene became a little stagnant.
Luo Du felt like he could dig out a villa with his toes. How embarrassing!
The opossum leader, who was showing little interest, ordered his men to take the food away. He then glanced at Kong Asan carefully and said, "You're very special. You noticed my difference right away..."
"After all, you haven't thought about deliberately disguising yourself, right?" Kong Asan looked over with a smile. He didn't think what he said was so shocking at all.
Even more amazing is that he immediately followed up with, "Perhaps, I can listen to your story and send you back home."
When the opossum monster leader heard this, his eyes suddenly widened, as if they were about to pop out of their sockets in the next second.
"How dare you talk to me like that? It seems you really don't want to live!" It said as it used its special move, trying to suck Kong Asan into its mouth and eat him.
The expression on Kong Asan's face did not waver in the slightest.
Even after it made such a move, the expression on Kong Asan's face showed a bit more pity and sympathy.
Kong Asan said slowly: "...You feel that you can't go back. Even if you return to your own timeline, you can't return to your "human" self."
The opossum monster leader froze for a moment, but was immediately followed by a rage.
Why are you looking at me like that? Why are you judging me with that condescending look?
Such thoughts filled its mind, making its anger grow deeper and deeper.
