Chu Yuan had never expected that Hope, with his thick brows and big eyes, was actually such a ruthless bastard?
Hearing how the primordial beings had been born...
His first thought was that those primordial beings were each walking treasure troves;
Aside from possessing souls...
Their manner of gestation was almost exactly the same as that of Origin Armaments?
No wonder they devoured one another...
If they had existed in this era, primordial beings would probably have been the favorite prey of every race...
Ignoring Chu Yuan's strange look, Hope continued;
"At the beginning, we attacked and devoured each other;
If we encountered someone weak, we struck;
If we encountered someone strong, we fled and hid...
But later, the aberrations appeared;
We did not believe those things posed any threat, but we received the summons of the Great Universe Will..."
"There were aberrations even in the primordial era?" Chu Yuan frowned. "Then what happened?"
Hope let out a sigh;
"Then... I was ambushed while heading to the First Battlefield;
I fell in... what is now the territory of the Demon Race.
Fortunately, I had some means left and wasn't completely dead..."
"Who ambushed you? An aberration? Or one of your companions?"
"...There were no companions. They were primordial beings." Hope shook his head and named several people. "Thousand Eyes, Centipede Serpent..."
A mocking curl rose at the corner of Chu Yuan's lips. "A bunch of useless mud that couldn't be plastered onto a wall..."
The aberrations had appeared, and even the Great Universe Will had issued a summons;
Yet they were still fighting among themselves?
They deserved to be abandoned by the Great Universe Will...
Hope sighed softly. "How much could one gain from killing aberrations?
How could it compare to directly killing a primordial being...
We had no race
