Chapter 2744 Strange Sense
Fortuna was stunned again. “What did you just say? You said I killed ten beasts? I don't remember doing it. Was I that powerful? Where are the bodies? We should roast and eat them. It's a shame we don't have spices here to flavor it.”
Zeke was on the verge of tears. Goddammit. Fortuna lost its memories again! When Fortuna was in its crazed state, I should've ignored Ossa Dei's suggestion and interrogated it! This is just great. Now that Fortuna has calmed down, its memories are beyond its reach once more. Also, it looks like an ugly eel again, unlike its majestic, draconic form from earlier. What an extreme difference.
Unwilling to give up on that lead, he asked again, “Think about it again, Fortuna.”
Fortuna shook its head. “Think about what? I want to eat delicious deer meat!”
That rendered Zeke speechless. Ugh, I should forget about it for now. I doubt I can get anything out of Fortuna. Next time, when the beasts attack again, maybe it'll remember something. If that happens, I'll see how things go.
The deepest part of Theos Island's primordial region was considered a secluded, forbidden zone. Even the Camp Masters had never set foot in that area before.
More specifically, they didn't have the guts to because of a primordial beast living there.
No one knew how long the primordial beast had been living on the island or where it came from. The only thing they were certain of was that it was very powerful and it commanded all beasts on the island.
It possessed the same status as Theos.
The center of the primordial region was a giant, silent, and lifeless mire.
No creatures dared to approach that mire. They would walk around the center if they needed to travel across the primordial region.
The primordial beast's aura was powerful enough to overwhelm all the other creatures.
The sky was turning dark as though it was about to rain.
Boom!
Finally, following the crack of thunder, rain poured from the sky, spurring movements in the mire.
The soil and algae at the center of the mire rose into the air until the shape of a buffalo became visible.
The creature was as large as a house. As a result of living in the mire for a long period, it had algae and other plants growing on its back, which helped it blend into its surrounding. One would only spot it if one paid attention.
That buffalo was one of the few primordial beasts on Theos Island.
It seemed as though it had just woken up, as seen by the dazed, drowsy look in its eyes.
Confused, it looked around. Earlier... Did one of my direct descendants ask me for help? Was it in danger? I think it also told me that “it” had returned. I doubt it since “it” should already be dead. There's
no way it came back to life.
After it thought about it for a while, the worry on its countenance faded. I think my descendant mistook something else for it. There's no way it's back. Even if it is, I doubt it can harm us primordial beasts with its broken body.
Shaking its head, it descended into the mire again and continued to sleep.
When its descendants called for its help again, it ignored their pleas. It's fine if they die. I have so many descendants that it doesn't matter if one or two of them kicked the bucket.
Meanwhile, in Camp South, the Camp Master, who was resting, suddenly sensed something. He hurriedly stood up before turning to the east, which was the direction of the primordial forest. I'm confident that I sensed the threat of a primordial beast coming from that direction earlier. Was it awakened because it detected members of its kind getting killed? That shouldn't have happened. Zeke only killed around thirty beasts, which wouldn't be enough to wake it up. I'm pretty sure he would've needed to kill around one thousand beasts to rouse it from its slumber. I bet one of the beasts attracted by the Heavenly Spirit Stone was a direct descendant of the primordial beast, which was why it woke up for a moment. Hmm, it'll be great if more of its direct descendants are drawn to Zeke. This way, it'll wake up sooner.
