Chapter 335: The Queen's Inner Curse
Anno sat amidst the dimly lit pile of treasures, listening to Nancy recount the deeds of the two past queens while simultaneously extracting their memories from her mother's consciousness.
After listening, she remained silent for a long time, her emotions churning like a turbulent sea.
She looked up at the portrait of the Dark Light Queen in front of her, feeling a deep sense of admiration mixed with an indescribable sadness.
The Wind Spirit Queen and the Dark Light Queen are carrying an unbearable burden.
Throughout the Zerg's history, due to their unique way of life and social structure, they have experienced many periods of underestimation.
But none of them could completely defeat the Zerg. She just didn't expect that the Zerg's most recent low point would be so close to her.
Even though this happened more than two thousand years ago, because of the Zerg's extremely long lifespan, it all seems like it happened just yesterday after we found out.
After obtaining information about the Wind Spirit Queen's past, Anno suddenly remembered that the Dark Light Queen had never opened her consciousness to her mother, Sevier, during her reign. How did she obtain such detailed memories of the Wind Spirit Queen?
She directly expressed her doubts to her mother in her mind.
She heard her mother cough softly in her consciousness and say, "If you wish, I will take you to the temple to see your mother."
In the temple, one can see the souls of the ancestors.
It seems that after the Dark Light Queen's demise, the mother went to see her.
Anno immediately agreed.
She now desperately wants to meet this legendary Dark Light Queen, not only because of her achievements and personal charm, but more so because she is her mother's mother.
She looked at the portraits of other queens for a while, and suddenly realized that in the past, queens would leave behind some things besides portraits and core artifacts.
However, not all queens leave behind personal belongings. Many items are passed down directly to the next generation for their use. They are not keen on keeping personal belongings as commemorative items for death.
The Zerg's consciousness network can pass down memories from generation to generation. When the Overlord dies, it transforms into its last energy and merges into the planet. As long as the planet exists, they exist, so they are not afraid of death.
She wanted to see if the Dark Light Queen had left any relics.
After the Dark Light Queen went to the Temple to reunite with her ancestors, her mother never entered the Treasure Hall again, and if she left anything behind, her mother would not know.
The Dark Light Queen kept her consciousness closed to her mother until her death, which must have been very painful for her mother.
She began searching through the treasure hall.
Nancy, seeing her rummaging through the pile of treasures, asked, "Your Highness, what are you looking for?"
Anno: "I want to find the relics left behind by the Dark Light Queen."
After saying that, Anno turned his head and gestured for Nancy to be quiet.
"Don't let your mother know, and don't try to communicate with her consciously."
Nancy nodded solemnly.
He knew the little princess's intentions; he was the queen's most frequent companion and a member of her family who hatched at the same time.
Naturally, they also knew about her experiences from childhood to adulthood, and the strained relationship between the Dark Light Queen and her.
After the Dark Light Queen's death, the Queen never visited the Palace of Treasures, nor did she express any longing for the Dark Light Queen. Those who had grown up with the Queen all understood that the Dark Light Queen had always been the Queen's greatest unresolved issue.
But as her dependents, they could only obey and could not provoke her.
Looking at the vast Treasure Hall, with all sorts of rare and precious items casually placed around, Anuo felt a little overwhelmed by the sheer size of the space.
She asked Nancy, "Aren't the relics of the queens kept in special storage?"
Nancy said, "The queens... basically just put things down anywhere. They like to leave them somewhere and hide the memories behind, so that the queens who come after them have to keep searching for them if they want to see their relics."
Anno: "......" What kind of conventional hobby is this?
Since that's the case, we can only call Caesar and the others to come and find them. Caesar and the others have been sent out to do errands by their mother these past few days, so they should be fine when they come back.
Just as she was about to open her personal terminal to call Caesar and the others, a star-tailed butterfly flew into the Treasure Hall, circled in front of Anno a few times, and then flew off in a certain direction.
Anno sensed a very faint consciousness on the Star-Tailed Butterfly, and with a thought, he followed it.
