"Lord Gu, I just killed these zombie giants by accident. I am not the man of destiny as you said." Lin Ziluo quickly waved his hand to refuse.
I heard Gu Zhuang shout out that the child of destiny was Gui Tong, not him.
So logically speaking, he didn't understand the meaning of the Child of Destiny.
Gu Zhuang shook his head and said, "Son of Destiny, you have just awakened and don't understand many things. Actually..."
"Father," Gu An stood up, interrupting Gu Zhuang and saying, "We still need to find someone to clean up here, and we also need to deal with the corpses of the zombie giants outside the high wall. It's really not suitable for a conversation."
Looking at Gu Anshi's eyes, Gu Zhuang finally understood.
Gu An meant that there were too many people around here and it was not appropriate to talk about private matters.
Gu Zhuang changed the subject and said, "He's almost dead, and his thinking has slowed down quite a bit. He actually forgot about this. Son of Destiny, let's go back to Taize Town and talk about it first."
Lin Ziluo nodded.
"Then are these people..." Gu An looked at the service personnel who were still alive on the high wall and said hesitantly.
"Forget it." Gu Zhuang stopped Gu An and said, "I'm dying soon, so let's stop killing and take them to Taize Town to rest first.
"The truth will eventually come to light. With the zombie giant incidents happening one after another, the news will soon be impossible to suppress. By the time the whole country knows about it, we can let them go."
After hearing these words, Lin Ziluo roughly understood.
It seems that the reappearance of zombie giants is not only here.
But the news is still blocked now.
If they encountered a ruthless manager, the poor people who knew the news would probably be killed.
"Son of Destiny, let's talk somewhere else." Gu Zhuang said to Lin Ziluo.
......
Taizé Town, High Priest's Palace.
Lin Ziluo, Dasha and Guitong followed Gu Zhuang into the high priest's mansion.
In fact, Dasha and Guitong were also imprisoned with the group of service personnel at the beginning.
But Lin Ziluo explained their relationship, so he let them move freely.
The High Priest's Mansion was not as magnificent as Lin Ziluo had imagined.
Although it is different from other buildings, it is at best just a residential house with somewhat luxurious decoration.
But when Gu Zhuang brought them into a hidden house, something still caught his attention.
There is a wall in this room that is as white as jade, and the entire wall is carved with exquisite murals.
The mural depicts a giant beast engaged in hand-to-hand combat with a zombie giant of the same size.
There is a scene where three giant beasts gather together to fight against the swarming zombie giants.
There is also a scene where a giant beast steps on the corpse of a zombie giant and roars to the sky.
Without a doubt, the most conspicuous monster in this mural is the giant monster of the waves - Hercules.
"Heglas, one of the top demon gods in the empire, killed countless zombie giants when he was at his peak." Gu Zhuang looked at Lin Ziluo's attention on the mural and explained.
Then he sat on a chair in the room and motioned Lin Ziluo and the others to sit down as well.
Lin Ziluo was not polite either. He sat down on the chair and looked at Gu Zhuang.
"Okay, there are no outsiders here now. Son of Destiny, I will try my best to answer whatever you want to know." Gu Zhuang said.
Lin Ziluo naturally said without hesitation: "I want to know what the Child of Destiny is."
Gu Zhuang thought for a moment and said, "A long time ago, there was a popular saying in the empire that only giants can defeat giants."
"Because at that time, in human cognition, only summoned demons could defeat giants. As for ordinary humans, unless they used weapons and human lives, they would not be able to punish the zombie giants at all."
"But soon, the appearance of the first Child of Destiny shattered human cognition."
"That child of destiny was actually able to fight a fifty-meter-tall zombie giant, and even killed it with the help of others."
Fighting a fifty-meter-tall zombie giant?
Lin Ziluo thought about it and felt that he could easily fight against a 70-meter-tall zombie giant.
"Since then, children of destiny have begun to appear across the country. Some have mastered flight, some boast incredible speed, and some can manipulate water and fire... Most of them claim to have awakened suddenly. Some, like you, awakened in times of crisis."
"That's why we call these people the Children of Destiny. They are humans who transcend the control of fate. You are the same. Your strength is even far greater than those newly awakened Children of Destiny."
"Originally, the Empire thought that with these Children of Destiny, we could still resist the zombie giants, but it is clear that we were naive. The number of Children of Destiny is too small, and we can't even form a team."
Gu Zhuang gave a detailed introduction and did not forget to sigh after the introduction.
Lin Ziluo nodded.
He asked the Child of Destiny this question only to make his identity more reasonable. In fact, the following question was what he cared about most.
"What about the zombie giants? I heard from the villagers that the zombie giants seemed to have disappeared for a long time, and they even thought it was all a rumor. This is the first time we know about the existence of zombie giants." He asked.
"Zombie Giants... Well, actually, you're right. They have indeed disappeared for a long time. They haven't appeared near our empire for nearly a hundred years. Only a very few people know of their existence."
"However, just last month, the fourth area of Gulan High Wall was suddenly attacked by zombie giants. However, because there were only three zombie giants, they were easily defeated by the demon summoned by the high priest there."
"At the time, we didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just a coincidence. But what happened today proves that the reappearance of the zombie giant is definitely not a coincidence. I just sent someone to pass the news to the emperor to let them understand this."
Sure enough, this wasn’t the first zombie giant attack; it had happened before.
"What exactly is the situation with the zombie giants? What happened back then? Why did humans suffer a crushing defeat and therefore build a high wall? Where did the zombie giants hide?" Lin Ziluo continued to ask.
What Gu Zhuang said was too superficial. He wanted to understand more deeply so that he could better target the zombie giant.
"What exactly happened back then?" Gu Zhuang recalled and said, "These things should have been top secret. Only family heads like us are qualified to know."
"But as the child of destiny, you will be informed once your strength reaches the standard, so it is not against the rules for me to tell you now."
