Chapter 924: Chapter 922: The World Key
After a brief silence, Heluo couldn’t help but step forward, glanced at Richard and said, “Let do it.”
“Alright.” Richard did not refuse.
Heluo imdiately began to speak, looking at Bobbobovic, “Unique species, simply put, are magical creatures that are unusual, unique, and powerful—distinct entities among magical creatures.”
“Oh, is that so?” Bobbobovic nodded and then asked, “Then, are there a lot?”
“Quite naturally, there are many,” Heluo said, “You must understand that, according to the widely accepted research, magical creatures have existed for much longer than humans and wizards—before humans appeared in this world, other creatures already existed.
So of these creatures mastered extraordinary abilities and beca magical creatures, and only afterward did humans appear, giving rise to the ancient wizards. For this reason, the unique species among magical creatures, both in quantity and diversity, are astonishingly vast. Consequently, in ancient tis, the main enemies of wizards were these unique species.
Generally speaking, unique species are classified into four major categories and nurous subcategories, based on the degree of threat to humans and their lifespan.”
“So complex?” Bobbobovic frowned.
Heluo pretended not to hear and continued, “Among them, the first major category of unique species is called the short-lived unique species.
This unique species has relatively low threat levels, and ordinary wizards can handle them. They have shorter lifespans, generally not exceeding that of humans. So, as long as their numbers don’t reach a certain level, they can be considered ordinary magical creatures.
Under this major category, there are mainly subcategories like mutant species, plague species, superbirth species, etc.
The mutant species are rare magical creatures whose bodies have undergone transformation due to various reasons, like the Demonized Two-Headed Wolf and the Three-eyed Demonized Cheetah.
Plague species are magical creatures that carry toxins and can cause widespread infectious diseases, like the Demonized Rotten Rat and Demonized Evil Dog.
The superbirth species are magical creatures with extraordinary reproductive abilities. While a single individual might not be very strong, given the right environnt, their population can multiply hundreds or thousands of tis in a short period, eventually forming a beast tide. Basic beast tides aren’t much, but if they evolve into Interdiate, Advanced, or even Catastrophe-level beast tides, they beco terrifying. So Demonized Snakes and Demonized Rats have such potential, but the most fearso are Demonized Ants.
I once read an account of an ancient magical ant called the Skeleton Ant, which successfully ford an unprecedented colony due to various neglects by people, leading to a Catastrophe-level ant tide.
Once the ant tide erupted, in just three days, more than ten super cities were overrun, with no life left in its wake, and a large area was in crisis. Ultimately, it took twenty powerful wizards risking their lives to assault the core of the ant colony, and only after half of them died and the other half were seriously injured did they manage to kill all the ant queens, finally halting the disaster from spreading further.
Even so, the aftermath of the event emptied an entire kingdom, causing a once imnsely powerful kingdom to begin its decline…”
As Heluo continued speaking, Bobbobovic’s mouth slowly opened wider, finally realizing the terrifying aspects of the unique species, murmuring, “A bit scary…”
Richard resonated with this, recalling the beast tide he encountered with Gregory after leaving the Blue Lion Kingdom. At that ti, the beast tide was classified under the super birth species, possibly not even considered a Basic Beast Tide.
“Apart from the first category, there is the second major category of unique species,” Heluo continued without pause, “which is the Longevity Unique Species.
Compared to the short-lived unique species, these individual creatures possess formidable strength, far beyond what ordinary wizards can contend with, unless they have mastered spells specifically designed to restrain them.
Therefore, the Longevity Unique Species can easily bring disaster to a region, requiring stringent monitoring. Fortunately, due to environntal reasons, the current era is becoming increasingly unsuitable for the survival of the Longevity Unique Species, leading to their scarcity or even extinction, so we don’t have to worry every day.
Under this major category, subcategories like aberrant species, giant dragon species, etc., are mainly classified.
The aberrant species are sowhat similar to the previously ntioned mutant species, but they are no longer re mutations and generally undergo fundantal changes in their bodies, greatly enhancing their power beyond their species’ limits.
For example, the double-headed demon wolf, a type of mutant species, is stronger than a regular demonized wild wolf, but if it faces two demonized wild wolves, it finds trouble, and against three or four, it is bound to lose.
The aberrant species are different. For instance, there is a giant serpent aberrant species with nine heads, called Lerna, which can easily kill thousands of its kind without being hard. Once, a Lerna appeared on the main continent, seemingly in a place called Neese Swamp, resulting in the deaths of dozens of wizards until a Level 4 Wizard arrived to take action and eliminate it—it is indeed very powerful.
As for the giant dragon species, as the na suggests, they include all kinds of dragons—red dragons, blue dragons, black dragons, white dragons, etc. So categories within them are even rarer than aberrant species like Lerna and even stronger, with higher danger levels.
Fortunately, according to information collected by the organization, more than ninety-nine percent of giant dragons have gone extinct due to environntal unsuitability. The remaining few barely survive in remote corners, on the brink of complete extinction. It is just a matter of ti before they are gone, no need for concern…”
Listening to this, Bobbobovic continued to express amazent with his mouth agape.
Richard, on the other hand, had a glint in his eyes, lost in thought.
About the appearance of the aberrant species Lerna on the main continent, he had actually heard about it before coming to the main continent.
That was during the ti when many wizard organizations on the East Coast united to seek revenge on Deep Blue Castle, and he t Sherlock.
At that ti, he already had plans to co to the main continent, intending to find the ultimate treasure of the Black Spirit King and then stay away from the chaotic East Coast, so he tried to learn so basic information about the main continent from Sherlock.
Sherlock spoke about the dangers of the main continent and used the Lerna Hydra as an example, also ntioning other powerful magical creatures—the unique species.
It’s worth noting that, back then, in Sherlock’s words, the unique species were indeed decreasing, as if so individuals were deliberately clearing them out. But now, according to Heluo, it was due to environntal reasons.
Is it really due to environntal reasons? Is there a significant change between the current and ancient environnts? Even if there are changes, humans can adapt without significant impact, yet the more powerful Longevity Unique Species cannot. This doesn’t seem logical, does it?
Moreover, he had personally experienced the Truth Society Wizards hunting dragons. That was the reason for Gregory’s death and also his first encounter with the Truth Society or the Supre Order Divine Society.
When all these matters are considered together, the conclusions beco quite interesting.
Perhaps the Truth Society has been secretly eliminating various unique species, while publicly attributing their extinction to environntal causes.
If this is indeed the case, what is their purpose in clearing out unique species? For world peace? To create a safe, beautiful world? Obviously not. If that were true, they wouldn’t be causing trouble on the East Coast, nor would they have directly destroyed the entire White Stone Tower.
From a certain perspective, the opponent, as a large and independent organization, has always seed to be striving to maintain world order, continually reducing dangerous factors, appearing to be a righteous and noble existence.
But this is rely a facade; they actually have more hidden and unknown goals.
He doesn’t know what this purpose is, but he has a premonition—one he’s had for a long ti—that this purpose is connected to the truth of the current world.
The Truth Society will be the key to unlocking the truth of the current world.
Thinking these thoughts, Richard slightly raised his eyebrows and looked at Heluo.
