Since they entered the underground labyrinth, along the way, they encountered many snake-wrapped staffs, snake-wrapped cones and other emblems related to the worshipers. Moreover, most of them were encountered in the ruins of the laboratory.
From these details, we can see that the city of Naraku thousands of years ago seems to have some connection with the Source Worshipers.
However, at this time, Angel had not yet connected the Box of Scythia with the Source Worshipers.
Until, Sicia wanted to pull Angel into the "dark space", but was blocked by some kind of power in the left earlobe. In addition, Sicia was curious about Angel's left earlobe, and what she mentioned before
"Familiar fluctuations" made Angel wonder if Sicia had sensed... Source Fire?
Just now, Sicia was "not satisfied" with Angel's answer, confirming Angor's guess that the "familiar fluctuations" that Sicia mentioned before did indeed refer to the source fire.
Since Alderkras gave the mark of fire, it has been very rare to be able to directly perceive the existence of the source fire through the mark of flame. Even Rhine can only feel the mark of flame itself, but cannot sense the things sealed in the mark.
Yuan Huo. On the other hand, Tatolo, because he is a source worshiper, can vaguely detect the clues.
Xicia can detect the source fire, and this alone is enough for Angel to ask, "Are you a source worshiper?"
What's more, Xixia's name also complies with the naming rules of the worshipers.
Bobota, Huaqiao, Duoduoluo, Xisiya... People from the source seem to be keen on using cute overlapping words to name their names.
Therefore, when Angel asked this question, he was already seventy-eight percent sure.
On the other side, Sisia fell into a long silence after hearing Angel's question.
Xicia's previous "I'm tired, get out of here after asking questions" mood seemed to have dissipated, and the dark space was filled with a stagnant atmosphere.
"...Why do you ask this question?"
Angel listened to Gu Jing Wubo's voice and thought to himself: This is right. An old monster who has been trapped in a dark box for ten thousand years can still be so passionate about "My mother this, my mother that".
It was obviously deliberately pretending. Nowadays, this cold, dark, sinister and ruthless tone is more normal.
When Angel was thinking about the "reasonableness of the voice" in his mind, he never thought that Sicia's deliberately pretended voice might be a friendly expression.
"I originally wanted to ask other questions, but this question suddenly occurred to me, so I asked. There is no reason why." Angel said it very calmly, and in fact it was true. It happened to occur to him, so there was no harm in asking.
Sisia fell into a long silence again.
But Angel could feel that there seemed to be a pair of cold eyes in the dark mist around him, secretly looking at him.
The atmosphere began to slowly slip towards indifference, and the stagnation not only remained unresolved, but actually became stronger.
In this atmosphere, Angel said: "Is the question you just asked a question? If so, I have already answered you, and it is your turn to answer my previous question."
"You are a source worshiper, right?" This time, Angel's tone had lost its doubts and became very confident.
"Does it mean something to you, yes or no? Or, do you think that if I were a source worshiper, I could be used by you like other source worshipers who were slaughtered?"
Sisia's voice was already filled with anger, and there was a trace of hatred in her words.
Even if Sicia doesn't admit it, Angel, who has captured these hidden emotions, has basically determined at this time that Xicia's identity is undoubtedly a source worshiper... To be more rigorous, at least, he was once a source worshiper.
"Ten thousand years ago, the Source Worshipers would not have been completely slaughtered. If you have been here all this time, how did you know this news?"
Sisia: "I have my own channels."
Angel pretended to be enlightened: "Oh, I remembered it. I remember that people who worship the source have a common ancestral altar, which exists in the thinking of every worshiper. When the fire of the ancestral altar is extinguished, as long as the worshiper worships the source
Everyone should be able to see it and understand what it means."
Angel: "So, did Sicia know the news from the outside world because of this?"
However, before Sisia could answer, Angel denied the inquiry himself.
"Ah, I almost forgot, you can't even sense your soul. Even if you are a source worshiper, you shouldn't be able to sense the altar. So, there are still other people who brought you news from the outside world, then... it would be
Are there other intelligent beings living in these underground waterways?"
Angel actually wanted to ask directly, did the wise master of the Three-Eyed Blue Demon tell you? But he still held back. After all, these are not important.
According to the pattern of suppressing before promoting, he has already attracted enough hatred, and if he continues to attract hatred, it will be difficult to "raise" again.
"How did you know about the ancestral altar? Who told you?" Sisia's voice calmed down inexplicably. However, Angel could detect through his super senses that Sisia's calmness was only on the surface, and the undercurrent was raging deep in the depths -
—
Sisia already had the intention to kill.
After sensing the murderous intention, Angel knew that he should reveal something, otherwise, it would be really difficult to "show off".
"How did I know this secret? Of course the source worshiper told me personally."
Angel specially emphasized the word "personally".
Sisia: "...are there any living source worshipers outside?"
Sisia's voice remained as calm as before, as if she was just asking a casual question. But in Angel's perception, Sisia's true emotions were not like this.
Before, there was a turbulent undercurrent and murderous intent. But now it is a stormy sea, with a hint of hope amid disbelief.
Angel: "So, the trivia game is over?"
"Fuck the turtle quiz game, I'm announcing now that from now on, there will be no quiz game. Either you answer my question, or you get out. I don't have time to waste with you."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Xicia raised her mood again, but underneath the excitement, she was cautious. Obviously, even if Xicia changed her passionate response, she was still acting.
"Even if there is no more quiz game, I still hope that before I answer your question, you can answer my question first. Xicia, are you a source worshiper?" Angel repeated the question again, only this time
, his expression was more solemn and serious than before.
Sisia in the dark stared at Angel deeply for a while and then said: "You have already guessed it, why do you have to give me the exact answer?"
"Because, if we can't be sure that Xicia is a worshiper, then there is no need for me to stay here any longer."
Angel didn't explain why, and Sicia didn't ask. Instead, after a moment of silence, he finally answered affirmatively: "Yes, I used to be a source worshiper. And now... I am too."
After hearing what Xicia said, Angel finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It has been "suppressed" for too long. If it is not "raised", there will be no way to "raise". Fortunately, Sicia answered his question, and answered more than Angel wanted to know.
"I was once a source worshiper." There was nothing wrong with this sentence, and Sisia admitted her identity.
"Now, too." The second half of this sentence is very intriguing. Xixia is saying in disguise: No matter how my form changes, no matter whether I am alive or dead, no matter how time passes, whether there are still any living people in the worshiping source clan.
In existence, she will always be a source worshiper.
This is a clear statement. No matter what situation Xicia is in now, as long as she has anything to do with the Source Worshipers, she will always favor the Source Worshipers side.
Angel originally just wanted to confirm Xicia's identity, and then reveal some information about Bobota or Huaqiaoqiao as appropriate, so as to win the goodwill of Sicia, who is also a worshiper, so that he can better inquire about other information.
But now, Xicia has shown her attitude, which makes Angel feel more reassured. Maybe he can reveal more information, and even mention the situation of Dudolo.
Before Dudolo successfully lit the fire of the ancestral altar, it shouldn't be a bad thing to have a senior from the clan to guide him.
However, Angel plans to wait and see if we should say it now.
"I've already answered you, now it's your turn. Are there any source worshipers outside? Who did you learn about the existence of the ancestral altar?"
Angel: "So, now the trivia game is back?"
Angel suddenly said this, which made Sicia's anger rise instantly: "I'm playing with you..."
However, Xixia stopped abruptly just in the middle of her words.
Because, a faint white flame appeared at Angel's fingertips.
Feeling the familiar fluctuations in the flame, Sisia was suddenly stunned. As time passed bit by bit, the indifference accumulated over thousands of years was slowly melting away...
When her emotions reached the extreme, Sisia finally couldn't bear it any longer. She tightly covered her trembling lips with both hands, and her eyes widened. If she still had a physical body, she might have burst into tears at this time.
And the cause of everything is the flickering white flame.
Looking at the familiar and warm firelight, the coldness and loneliness of the past ten thousand years seemed to be driven away one by one. And this long-awaited reunion reminded her of the time when she had not yet transformed into a casket...
…
At that time, as long as every worshiper closes his eyes, he can see the eternal flame in the ancestral altar deep in his mind.
And the flames burning in the ancestral altar were the white flames dancing on Angel's fingertips.
——Source of fire.
Source fire is also the original fire, representing the original fire of civilization and the spark of creation and continuation.
According to the legend of people worshiping the source, as long as the fire of the ancestral altar remains alive, the inheritance of worshiping the source will never be extinguished.
But Xisiya knows that except for truth, nothing exists forever. Even the will of the world will fail and perish, let alone the ethereal source of fire.
Moreover, many high priests have predicted that the source fire will be extinguished, which is a disaster that the source worshipers cannot escape or avoid.
However, "nothing lasts forever", but equally, "nothing is destined".
A single spark can start a prairie fire. And the source fire is that single spark. As long as we can get another ray of source fire, even just a little flame, we can rekindle the ancestral altar.
But the premise is that there are source worshipers who are still alive and have obtained this initial fire that is almost invisible in the Southern Territory.
Thousands of years of time passed by in a hurry. During this period, not only did Xicia not get any news about the revival of the Source Worshipers, but on the contrary, every time the news brought by that existence was bad news.
One by one, the worshipers were manipulated and used, and eventually died unwillingly.
Thousands of years ago, that person brought the news of the death of the last source worshiper.
The disaster of genocide has finally become "destined".
Since then, Sicia has always asked in the dark, does she have any companions? Is she the last "source worshipper"? And...
Is she a deserter? If she didn't have the casket, could she have done something for the tribe?
Xicia thought about many things in her mind instantly, and all of this was because of the glimmer of light brought by this sudden intruder.
…
While Xicia was looking at the white source fire infatuatedly, Angel was also looking at the source fire.
However, he didn't think as much as Xixia. What he thought about had nothing to do with the worshipers, but a descendant of the demon god.
At the same time, it was also Monchi’s biggest target when he started the Rasudelan campaign—Aulusia.
At the end of the Battle of Rasudran, a total of four source fires appeared. Except for the one owned by the nightclub owner, three of them were in Angel's hands.
The most complete and brightest is the orange source fire.
The other two are one purple and one white. These two source fires were originally given to Orusia, which was used to open the way to a forgotten city. Because Orusia's body was snatched by Angel, these two
There was no harm in giving the source fire to Olusia, but what he didn't expect was that in the end, Olusia asked the young fire demon Grewu to return the purple and white source fire to Angel.
Therefore, when looking at this slightly dim white source of fire, Angel couldn't help but think of that proud but unique descendant of the devil.
"Olusia's target is said to be a lost city called Asgard. Even he, a descendant of the Demon God, yearns for it. I think Asgard hides a very important secret... I don't know where it is now.
Have you found it?"
"Also, I don't know what happened to that little kid Grewood..."
Just when Angel was thinking about unrelated things, the crisp sound of footsteps when the glass touched the smooth ground suddenly rang in his ears.
Angel raised his head and saw a tall figure slowly walking out of the dark mist directly ahead.
This is a very beautiful woman.
Wearing a purple and black slim-fitting tulle skirt, the long skirt is not only formed in one piece, but also shows off the visitor's proud figure. With the flashes of light on the clothes, she is like the goddess of the night, wearing a starry sky gauze skirt.
Come.
Her long black curly hair hangs casually on her smooth shoulders, making her look lazy yet elegant.
It's hard to imagine that such a goddess-level figure would call herself an old lady.
Yes, this is Xicia.
When Xicia saw the white source fire, she knew that it was impossible to pretend not to care anymore. Angel knew the Baiyuan tribe quite well, and he also got the source fire that the Baiyuan tribe dreamed of.
It's even possible that Angel has been waiting for this moment from the beginning.
Every word he said was pulling Xixia's thoughts.
Smart, cunning and also very evil.
This is Sisia's impression of Angel now, and it is not a good one. However, since the other party has taken out the Source Fire, even if Sisia doesn't even have a soul at this time, she must come out.
Not only for myself, but also for the possible existence of the Baiyuan clan...the faint spark.
