Chapter 1174 - 1177: Meeting

"They couldn't possibly be the natives of this world, right?"

Natives of this world?

When they heard Murin's words, everyone's expression turned a bit strange.

They thought that the passage would direct them straight towards the beast world's planet or something like that. After all, there were so many magic beasts here that everywhere they looked at, they would see more magic beasts.

But what if this was another world like Afirer Kingdom?

No one knew how these magic beasts destroyed these worlds and used it to cross into other worlds.

The Green Planet's Consciousness would not be kind enough to tell them everything about its affair. When Riya came to find the Green Planet's Consciousness, she only asked a few questions that were relevant to herself and didn't ask about other things.

Because Riya knew that the Green Planet's Consciousness would not necessarily answer her.

For Riya to be able to enter the world where the Green Planet's Consciousness was located back then was also due to the Green Planet's Consciousness's own tacit understanding and agreement.

Otherwise…

Hehehe, it would be highly impossible for Riya to enter that place and communicate with the Green Planet's Consciousness directly.

"It's unlikely." Riya shook her head.

"Are you sure?" Dina glanced at Riya with skeptical look.

Riya nodded.

She might not ask the Green Planet's Consciousness directly, but since the Green Planet's Consciousness dared to send them here and even cut off contact… it meant that this should be the place where the magic beasts were mainly located.

These magic beasts had indeed occupied many other places.

But they still have a place where they came from.

"Why?" Murin frowned.

"That rank 9 Frozen Golden Crow… it looked at all of us with contempt and inquiry in the beginning. This meant that the rank 9 Frozen Golden Crow had never seen human before," Riya replied slowly. "What followed afterwards is greed or perhaps gluttony… meaning that the rank 9 Frozen Golden Crow could sense that we're beneficial to it."

Just like how the magic beasts were beneficial for human consumption.

The feud between humans and magic beasts might have occurred thousands or even millions years ago as Riya was not entirely sure when it happened exactly.

Who could say for sure that humans have existed that long ago and have direct conflict with the magic beasts?

At least, Riya couldn't be certain of it.

The historical books in Afirer Kingdom didn't record such things.

On the Green Planet?

They didn't even know the existence of magic until a few years ago, so it was impossible for them to know more than the people in Afirer kingdom.

But what Riya knew for sure was that if this is a world where the magic beasts and humans have conflicted for a long time, that rank 9 Frozen Golden Crow would not react the way it was when it saw them.

The reaction was wrong.

"So it's the rank 9 Frozen Golden Crow's reactions…"

"No wait, how did you know about it so much?" Murin looked at Riya in disbelief and then he asked, "Does that rank 9 Frozen Golden Crow have high intelligence?"

"Yes." Riya nodded and looked at Murin strangely. "Any magic beasts above rank 6 would have intelligence just like human children and the higher their ranks, the smarter they would be. It was said that rank 10 magic beasts are even capable of commanding an entire army of magic beasts on its own."

This is public knowledge.

At least, for those who fought against the magic beasts, they had to learn about these things so that they would know what to do when facing certain magic beasts.

The magic beasts' species number was indeed a bit too much…

But at the very least, Riya knew very well that their behavior at certain ranks were somewhat consistent.

"The magic beasts on the Green Planet are dumber!"

"That's because they're restricted when they're on the Green Planet." Dina was getting upset by Murin's multiple questions. She glared at the other party and said, "Are you stupid or something?"

"What did you say?" Murin also glared at Dina and the small magic beast on his shoulder hissed as if it was about to move.

But how could these returnees be afraid?

They were not afraid of facing an entire group of magic beasts surrounding them, so they would not be afraid of a small magic beast on Murin's shoulder.

And Dina, being a demonic magician, was even more daring.

Her physical strength might be weak, but if Murin were to fight with her, it was really unknown who will lose or win.

"The description of the magic beasts on the Green Planet is inconstant with the record from Afirer Kingdom. Have you never questioned this matter before?" Dina retorted in annoyance.

She felt that Murin's IQ were all only directed towards his magic beasts.

His knowledge of the outside world was terribly poor and she felt truly exasperated to talk with him.

Murin frowned.

He did find some of the records inconsistent, but he never thought about it too much.

After all, it didn't affect his life.

But now…

"How could it be?"

"Why not?" Dina rolled her eyes, annoyed at Murin.

Even though four of them came from Continent Z, Dina felt that Murin was truly annoying and just wanted to stay as far away as possible from him.

Riya also disliked Murin, so she ignored him and instead focused on the figure that came towards them. There were three people and based on the aura emanating from them, Riya estimated that they were about the same ranks as them.

Rank 9 magicians or magic warriors depending on the paths they took.

Seeing them walking nonchalantly on the icy road and their ease when dealing with the magic beasts, Riya pursed her lips.

"It seems that the first thing we need is survival lesson."

"Huh?"

The other returnees were confused by Riya's words, but seeing the three people coming closer, they all assumed battle stance.
