"Who am I? Haha."
The old man of snake laughed at himself and shook his head and said, "I am just an existence exiled by the goddess of night in this land. I have long since remembered the name."
"Exile?" Enzo narrowed his eyes.
Hearing the words of the old man Snake and combined with the crazy curse of Grandma Wolf before his death, his thoughts flashed through his mind and made some inferences about the world under his feet.
Perhaps this is indeed the Kingdom of Goddess of the Night, but at the same time, it is also a prison cage where she imprisons some extraordinary existences.
"Forget it, I won't talk about this."
The old man snake shook his head and said, "From the direction you just now, you should have come from the wolf's hut in the forest. How about we make a deal?"
"Trade? What do you want?" Enzo asked.
"Help me steal something from the wolf grandma." A faint light flashed through the snake's vertical pupils, and said hoarsely, "It was a beating heart, which was placed in the iron box in the small house in the forest."
"Every night, Grandma Wolf will gradually relax her vigilance against the outside world. As long as you can help me get the heart in the iron box, I will tell you a secret about this world?"
The old man snake's tone was full of temptation, and the scarlet snake novices swallowed and vomited, and the expression on his face was like a devil who seduced the world to fall.
"Beating heart?"
Enzo's eyes flashed, and he took out a bright red object from his body and said, ": Are you talking about this thing?"
The old man snake's vertical pupils shrank, and a hint of astonishment appeared in his eyes. He said in surprise: How could it be in your hands? Could it be... you killed the wolf grandma!?"
Enzo's face was silent, but the Soul Bone Wand appeared quietly in his hand. The magic power in his body was slightly shocked and he could enter a combat state at any time.
"Haha, don't be nervous."
Seeing this, the old man Snake smiled on his face and said, ": I have nothing to do with Grandma Wolf. I was just a little surprised when I heard such news suddenly."
After saying that, the old man Snake sighed and murmured, "However, such an ending may be a good choice for her..."
"What's going on with Grandma Wolf?" Enzo asked.
"She is like me, she is a prisoner here exiled by the goddess of night." The old man of snake shook his head and said, "But, my choice between me and Grandma Wolf is different!"
"I have been able to face everything around me calmly for countless years and years."
"But... the wolf mother-in-law could not accept her fate. Perhaps a thousand years ago, she had already lost her mind and fell into madness because she could not be freed..."
Then, the old man snake chuckled and said.
"Although our power has been almost exhausted during the long years of being trapped here, it would not be so easy for you to kill her if it weren't for the wolf's heart's desire to die!"
Enzo's heart moved, and he remembered the crazy laughter of Grandma Wolf before her death. She did not seem to be afraid of death, but instead felt that it was a kind of relief.
"Give me the heart of Grandma Wolf."
The old man snake said again, "This thing is worthless to you. In exchange, I can tell you a secret."
"You want this heart, what's the reason?" Enzo's heart moved.
"In this black forest, there are many existences that are like me who are exiled by the goddess of the night."
The old man of snake spoke slowly and explained, ": The goddess of night left everyone with a symbol with divine power limitations and restrained us. We can only move in areas that are restricted by symbols. If we want to expand the scope, we can only plunder the symbols in the hands of others."
"But as I said just now, if we cannot leave our own area, how can we plunder the symbols of others?"
"This heart is the symbol of the wolf grandma?"
Enzo thoughtfully and said, ": So, you want to get it to expand your territory!"
Many extraordinary existences are imprisoned in the Black Forest, and the symbol with the power of the Night Goddess is a kind of restriction and constraint, but it also represents a kind of authority.
The area where the symbol belongs is a territory of a "prisoner", and other "prisoners" are not allowed to step into it.
If the old man of Snake wants to expand his territory, he needs to plunder other people's symbols, but because he cannot leave this area, he can only place his hopes on Enzo.
Outsiders do not belong to prisoners, have no symbols or territory, and are naturally not subject to regional restrictions.
"So that's what it is..." Enzo gradually realized.
Previously, Grandma Wolf wanted to deceive Enzo into eating that heart by inducing her. Because of this, she could be liberated and transfer the authority and limitations represented by the symbol to Enzo.
"Fortunately there is a reminder of chips!"
Enzo felt a little glimmer of gratitude. If he had eaten that heart, he would probably be imprisoned here forever like a wolf and an old snake.
"How is it? Have you thought about it?"
The old man snake spoke again and asked, ": Unless you want to be imprisoned here, the symbols have no meaning to you. How about exchanging my secrets?"
Enzo pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "I can give you this heart, but you must tell the secret of rice first!"
"Yes, no problem."
The old man of snake agreed readily and then asked, "Do you know, why did the goddess of night imprison us here?"
"Because... have you committed some sins?" Enzo thought for a while and replied.
"Sin? Haha, maybe!"
A strange look rose on the old man Snake's face and said quietly, "I have done a lot of things with my long vitality, but just some sins, the goddess of night who is lofty will not waste any energy for this."
As he said that, the old snake's vertical pupils flashed.
"The Goddess of the Night imprisoned us just to help her guard the "door"!"
"Door?" Enzo's eyes flashed.
"Yes, the door!" The old man of snake paused, and then said, "The land under our feet belongs to the kingdom of the goddess of night. Before she fell asleep, she left a thousand doors to store her treasures."
"And every door has a guardian. As long as someone can solve the guardian, he can obtain the qualification to enter the "door" and take away a treasure left by the goddess of night!"
Enzo's heart moved and suddenly remembered the iron door that appeared on the fireplace of the small cottage in the forest after Grandma Wolf was burned to death.
"Haha, after Grandma Wolf died, she also left her door?"
As if seeing through Enzo's thoughts, the old man Snake smiled slightly and shook his head and said, "It's a pity that after the door appears, no one will open it for a certain period of time, and it will be automatically blocked."
