Mystery: She came from the Chaos Sea.

Chapter 2 I ate the remains of the baby dragon

"Your dragon language is very standard..."

"Who taught you?"

Language is a product of civilization, and also a symbol of civilization.

Based on Helmani's survival memories and the short videos she saw on Earth, Zhou Mingxiang basically confirmed that she had descended into the early to middle period of the Second Era of the Mysterious World, the Age of the First Flame!

In this era, under the leadership of their race leaders, later known as the "Eight Ancient Gods," various extraordinary races shed their initial barbarity and developed their own civilizations through generations of reproduction and survival.

Even vassal states such as sea monsters, tree people, and humans gradually developed their own cultures and languages.

However, the languages ​​of subjugated races such as humans can only serve as means of communication between races.

Races like dragons, giants, and elves, who are naturally blessed by nature, have developed languages ​​that, in addition to serving as means of communication, can also leverage the power of nature!

This results in vassal races like humans, even if they risk their lives to absorb the special characteristics, still being far inferior to races like dragons and giants in the application of extraordinary abilities!

Therefore, among the weak but more rational human tribes, outstanding individuals gradually emerged who secretly learned extraordinary languages.

Hermaine is one of the best among them.

In addition to the languages ​​used by many races to communicate, they also learned the language of giants and the language of dragons.

Hermaine's tribe is a vassal of the giants, so if they really wanted to learn the giant language, they could always find some way and method.

But dragon language is a language that humans cannot understand!

Because weak humans only appear before dragons as food!

Faced with the curious questions from the veiled monster woman, Zhou Mingxiang swallowed hard and forced a smile, saying, "I once ate the remains of a young dragon."

The woman in the black dress said calmly, "I knew it."

Zhou Mingxiang was stunned. Hearing the woman's words, it was as if He could easily deduce the secrets that Hermione had carefully hidden.

For reasons unknown, the woman in the black dress, who had concealed her monstrous features, slowly said, "By devouring extraordinary individuals, one can gain all the abilities of the devoured one... This is not a secret among extraordinary races, and only humans who have never produced a powerful being are unaware of this common knowledge."

The secret that Helmaenie obtained after surviving countless near-death experiences was merely common knowledge among extraordinary races... The gap between races was like an insurmountable chasm.

Zhou Mingxiang lowered his head and smiled bitterly.

The woman in the black dress then said:

"Among extraordinary races, this behavior is called devouring traits, but not all traits can be devoured at will."

"The ability to indiscriminately consume will drive one towards madness..."

"Even similar characteristics can pollute spirituality and increase mental burden."

"Take you as an example. If you consume a few more dragons with similar characteristics, your abilities will be amplified, but you will also go completely insane, and your body will undergo mutations."

This monster woman's attitude was surprisingly gentle... Zhou Mingxiang, who thought he was going to become her food, lowered his eyes to hide the thought that was rising in his mind.

At the same time, based on the monstrous woman's explanation, Zhou Mingxiang couldn't help but think of—

The woman's description is remarkably similar to the potion system explained in the video!

The potion system refers to the system in the mysterious world where humans who want to become truly extraordinary must use evil spirits, dragons, monsters, or corresponding parts of magical trees, flowers, or crystals, combined with other materials, to concoct potions, which they then consume and absorb to gain different abilities.

The video also points out that the potion system is a progressively stronger chain of twenty-two pathways. Within each pathway, the lowest is sequence 9 and the highest is sequence 0. Since sequence 0 represents the level of a true god, it is also known as the twenty-two divine pathways!

In the same process, take Sequence 9 first, digest it completely, then take Sequence 8, and so on... Taking multiple doses of Sequence 9 or multiple doses of Sequence 8 will also increase the risk of loss of control.

Did I really travel to the mysterious world described in the video?

A shadow crossed Zhou Mingxiang's eyes.

She still had doubts, because the video described Zhou Mingrui as the protagonist of the story coming to the fifth era of this mysterious world.

Moreover, the video emphasizes that Zhou Mingrui's arrival was not a time travel! Rather, time was frozen by a pillar-level being!

In the video story, Zhou Mingrui, who is constantly searching for a way back "home", eventually discovers sadly that he has always been on Earth... The hometown in Zhou Mingrui's memory is a prehistoric civilization on this Earth that has long been destroyed.

Thinking of this, Zhou Mingxiang sighed softly: Zhou Mingrui, who was so attached to his home, would definitely find it hard to accept this reality if he really encountered that day in the story...

Thinking of this, Zhou Mingxiang sighed inwardly, ceasing to dwell on the events yet to come. He thanked the seemingly kind-looking monster woman before him, saying, "Thank you, madam. My name is... Helmani. I don't know your name yet."

Zhou Mingxiang, who is always adaptable, has no trouble accepting her identity in the new world, even though that identity is that of a woman.

At this moment, the monster woman replied, "I know who you are; I've heard of you."

"You enjoy a high reputation among humans... though I don't think such high profile is a good thing. You should be thankful that extraordinary races don't care about the growth of a weak race like humans."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Seemingly realizing she had said too much, the monster woman paused before continuing, "'Misfortune.' That's what the dire wolves call me."

doom……

Neither the memories of the indigenous people nor the narratives in the videos had ever heard of this name.

"Are you also... a dire wolf?" As she gradually accepted Helmani's identity, she tried to ask the woman in front of her, "To be honest, you look very similar to a human woman, and you are the kind of human woman with an elegant and charming demeanor."

Helmayne spoke sincerely, and a slight smile appeared on her tightly pursed lips beneath the veil of "misfortune," but it vanished in an instant.

The woman resumed her calm tone: "I am the Demon Wolf."

This woman named "Misfortune" is nothing like a ferocious wolf; her temperament is quite similar to that of a human!

Helmani remarked, "Talking to you almost made me think I was communicating with one of my own kind."

"Misfortune" narrowed its gaze slightly, as if recalling something. After a few seconds of silence, it said in a slightly icy tone, "In this world... there are few humans as bold as you. You seem to have forgotten that you are the rations that the 'King' rewarded me with."

Helmani vaguely remembered this incident; she was searching for materials rich in special properties in the wilderness when she unfortunately encountered a demon wolf on a hunting trip.

Because she was a rare human extraordinary being, she was captured alive and sent to the palace of the "Demon Wolf King." However, the legendary tyrannical "Demon Wolf King" had no interest in a weak human like her and didn't even have the appetite to eat her.

So much so that Helmaine didn't even get a chance to see the appearance of "King of the Dire Wolves" Fregra before being swept in front of "Misfortune" by the strong wind emanating from the palace.

The wolf clan seems to regard this phenomenon as a reward from the "king," and they all tacitly agree that Helmaine, the human woman, belongs to the "goddess of misfortune."

Helmaenie sighed:

"When I was captured and brought to the royal palace deep within the Demon Wolf Clan, I knew I had no hope of escape. Now my life is entirely in your hands. If you really want to eat me, I have no choice but to give up this piece of my flesh."

"but……"

"I beg you to shelter me."
