Mo Xiao had expected what the highlanders would say. It would be nothing more than some accusations, or even direct action. But so far, the development of things is far from what he expected.
Speaking of which, not only Mo Xiao, but also several people present did not expect to hear the word "demon" from the mouths of people from the demon world.
"Do you know about monsters?" Patty blurted out with wide eyes.
"Sure enough! You are it!"
Before Morga could react, several highlanders sitting next to him took the lead and roared with excitement. Mo Xiao estimated that if the situation was not a bit serious now, they would have to jump up and down.
No.
Mo Xiao and others also looked at each other. They had already inquired at Guili before. Compared with "human beings", a term that has been passed down from ancient times and is almost no longer used, there is no such term as "monster" in the demon world. At this moment
It was quite shocking to hear the question from the highlanders to the ears of Mo Xiao and the others.
"Calm down first." Mo Xiao rubbed his temples, "Can you tell me, who told you the word monster?"
Morga breathed a sigh of relief: "Ahem... before I answer your question, I want to know first, are you monsters?"
"That's right." Mo Xiao replied decisively, without any hesitation.
The others immediately looked at him strangely. Of all the people present, you are the least qualified to say this, okay?
The highlanders who were immersed in excitement did not notice their gazes. When they heard Mo Xiao's answer, the excitement on their faces became even stronger. This made Mo Xiao and the others very confused. They didn't know what they were happy about. "Okay, let me answer your questions first. First of all, no one told us the word monster, but we have always known it... Before this, do you know about the Creation Slate?"
Mo Xiao said seriously: "Are you referring to the second creation tablet that records knowledge related to life transformation?"
Morga's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "It seems that everyone is familiar with the Creation Slate, so there is no need to explain it from the beginning. Yes, it is the second Creation Slate. We Highlanders are not only early research
One of the results, I also joined the research of another group in the later period, and the 'demon'... is a new species born after we made changes to the spiritualization technology based on the birth of evolvers."
Mo Xiao listened very seriously, but suddenly thought that Anadel was also unfamiliar with the word monster, but considering that Anadel had a long period of sleep, it was understandable.
But he immediately realized another problem: "Wait... it's recorded on the gray and white stone tablet..."
"The monsters they call actually refer to elemental creatures." Patty whispered.
"So the gray and white stone tablets are what they left behind."
Ye Xiaoying also murmured. Following this line of thinking, they couldn't help but think of the Tianxin Tower that could repair itself. They subconsciously thought that the Tianxin Tower was also made by highlanders, but they immediately discovered something was wrong. From what they had seen before, the Tianxin Tower's
The technical level is not low, but the living standards of the people in the Highlands are not far behind that of the Beast Tooth Village.
Although Mo Xiao and the others spoke in a low voice, Morga and others could still hear clearly. He couldn't help but said: "The gray-white stone tablet... that is, the memory stone tablet in Tianxin Tower is indeed left by us, but what you say is
What are elemental creatures?"
"Elemental creatures are just another name for monsters," Mo Xiao replied casually. He was too lazy to explain more clearly, and what he said was correct.
Morjia and others have no doubt that he is there, but Ye Xiaoying still has questions that he wants to ask clearly: "Is the Tianxin Tower where you built it for research?"
"...Of course not, we just borrowed it. No one knows how long Tianxin Tower has been there." Morga's expression became a little obscure, "The reason why we chose Tianxin Tower as a research site is because the Highlanders
My ancestors heard a... mysterious voice in Tianxin Tower."
Mo Xiao suddenly became serious: "What is the sound? Tell me in detail."
Morga sighed softly: "It's been too long, and many previous records have long been lost in history. We don't know the specifics, we can only give a general idea, and this matter is very important. Even if you don't ask, we
I will also take the initiative to explain.”
"According to records, the first person to hear the mysterious sound of Tianxin Pagoda was the ancestor of the Highlanders Monir. It was more than 6,700 years ago. Because the spiritualization technology was mature at that time, this technology was used by two major
The empire has become semi-public."
"Monier participated in the research on the slate at that time. As the first batch of life-transformed people, the Highlanders have greatly enhanced their bodies and senses, but their intelligence has been relatively weakened. Perhaps because of this,
Ancestor Monir’s learning and research on slate knowledge has not progressed satisfactorily.”
"For some unknown reason, Monir discovered Tianxin Tower. When he explored it for the first time, he heard a mysterious voice in the tower. This voice appeared in his mind out of thin air and answered all the knowledge he did not understand.
, so the highlanders started researching monsters around Tianxin Tower."
"The research went smoothly at first, because with the help of the mysterious voice, any difficult questions could be answered after a while. The first monster (elemental creature) was successfully created. Monir's ancestors regarded this voice as divine will." The hearts of Mo Xiao and others moved slightly. The meaning of "take it as God's will" is very obvious. I am afraid that things may not have a big turn, but they did not speak and quietly waited for the next step.
"The success of research on monsters made ancestor Monir worship the Tianxin Tower and the mysterious voice to the extreme. So he wanted to go one step further and make up for the shortcomings of the highlanders, that is, the overall intelligence is slightly lower than other ethnic groups."
Mo Xiao raised his eyebrows, guessing the next plot development: "He failed?"
"No, he succeeded. Monir successfully found a way to improve the lives of the next generation of people." Morga said unexpectedly, and changed his tone, "It's just... there was something wrong with the research process, and part of the people under study
The volunteers have mutated."
"What mutation?" Patty was indeed more interested in researching experimental matters.
"Thus the snow monster was born."
Morga's tone was a little heavier: "The specific process is unknown. We only know that the Tianxin Tower and its surroundings have been blocked, and this continues to this day."
"Damn it, you really did create the snow monster."
Reyes, who had suffered a lot, hated the snow monster: "What happens next? We didn't hear any strange noises when we entered the tower before."
"Because the mysterious voice moved after Monir died." Morga shook his head and pointed at his head with a painful expression. "We thought the mysterious voice would not appear again, but it rang in our heads.
, it no longer answers the question and becomes a meaningless noise that keeps repeating itself. It is like a curse that has been tormenting us for thousands of years."
