His weak and worried tone made anyone who heard it think that he was a loyal servant who would risk his life for his master's benefit.
However, Fang Xiu was not buying it. He clearly remembered that the Kunlun maggot was only stunned after he captured the Zhoulong, so this was a rhetorical question.
"Kunlun maggot, do you recognize this black lotus?"
The Kunlun maggot cursed inwardly. So all this was a show for the blind? Cold-blooded! Heartless! Damn humans! More cold-blooded than the supernatural!
Although he was cursing inwardly, he dared not be negligent in the slightest: "Yes, my lord, this old servant will take a look."
He looked at the black lotus and was immediately shocked: "The Red Spider Lily! This is the Red Spider Lily!"
Fang Xiu's eyes flickered slightly. A flower named after the other shore? In an instant, he made many connections. Could this flower represent the other shore? And what kind of existence was that eerie black lotus with tentacles?
What is the red spider lily?
"My lord, the red spider lily is a flower that grows all over the other side of the river of death. It is an incarnation of the evil god, the Black Lotus of the Other Shore."
Black Lotus on the Other Shore?
Is this the name of the Tentacle Black Lotus?
"Since it can be named after the other shore, could it represent the other shore? What is so special about this strange god?"
Kunlun Maggot shook his head: "It is indeed quite special, but it doesn't necessarily represent the other shore. It is named after the other shore because its avatars are all over the other shore, just like the grass in the real world, which can be seen everywhere."
As for its special characteristics, they probably lie in its immortality. Among all the strange gods, the Black Lotus of the Other Shore and the Taotie are the most difficult to kill.
The reason why Taotie is so difficult to kill is its terrifying regenerative power, which can almost devour everything to replenish itself.
The Black Lotus of the Other Shore is said to have many clones, and to kill it, all the other shore flowers in the world must be eradicated.
"Is His power related to evil thoughts?" Fang Xiu suddenly asked.
"That's right. The red spider lily is also called the flower of extreme evil. Its fragrance can induce the evil thoughts hidden in people's hearts. Even if a person has a high moral standard, once they inhale the fragrance of the red spider lily, they will become an unforgivable villain."
Fang Xiu asked this question because the report stated that everyone who passed near the Red Spider Lily would undergo a drastic personality change and eventually kill each other, and a photo was attached.
The photo shows seven or eight ordinary people who died tragically, seemingly after a fierce battle. They lay scattered around the spider lilies, their blood splattering on the flowers and making the petals even more alluring.
When he was corrupted by the various evil gods, he once asked the Black Lotus of the Other Shore to come down and be a guest. She did come down, but when he was corrupted, he did not feel that she was anything special, or that her so-called evil thoughts were particularly wicked.
Now that I think about it carefully, it seems that hatred is also a kind of evil thought. Could this be the reason why I didn't realize the pollution of evil thoughts at the time?
"My lord, the appearance of the Red Spider Lily in the world is not a good omen. It means that the other shore is about to invade."
The red spider lily blooms on the other side of the river; where the red spider lily blooms, that is the other side!
"Yes, I already knew." Fang Xiu nodded calmly. He had already learned from Zhou Qingfeng about the invasion from the Other Shore in a month. Oh right, several days have passed now, and there is less than a month left.
He was pondering: where there are red spider lilies, there is the other shore. So why did he only see the gluttonous beasts and snakes wreaking havoc when he mistakenly entered the other shore, and not the red spider lilies?
After much thought, there are probably only two possibilities: either the red spider lilies aren't everywhere, or although they are common on the other side of the river, they aren't ubiquitous.
When walking in the city, you don't necessarily see grass all the time.
Either the Taotie ate them all, and where the Taotie is, nothing grows, which makes perfect sense.
A moment later, Fang Xiu picked up the phone.
"Pass the word down and bring me a black lotus from report number 108."
Shortly after, a staff member wearing white gloves walked in carrying a transparent box.
Inside the box, a black lotus lay quietly. Beneath its stem, countless tiny purplish-black tentacles wriggled like maggots, even emitting a slippery, sticky sizzling sound.
"Captain, the items have been delivered." The staff member placed the transparent box on Fang Xiu's desk.
"Okay, open it." Fang Xiu said calmly.
A hint of unease flashed across the staff member's face: "Captain, this flower spreads evil thoughts. Of course, I know you certainly won't be affected by evil thoughts, but I'm afraid I might do something outrageous..."
"Open."
"Yes, Captain." The staff member's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly opened the box.
The moment the door opened, Fang Xiu could feel a delicate fragrance filling the office. The scent was like musk and orchid, fragrant and elegant, seemingly surpassing any perfume in the world.
However, he did not perceive the so-called evil intentions.
However, the staff member in front of him changed. The once respectful man gradually revealed a ferocious look on his face, his black and white eyes filled with malice. He raised his head and stared intently at Fang Xiu.
"Why do you get to be so high and mighty, and have such a pretty little..."
"Hmm?" Fang Xiu glanced at him indifferently, his deep, dark eyes like a bottomless abyss, a hellish place!
An overwhelming sense of fear instantly overwhelmed the staff, dispelling their malicious thoughts.
The staff member, drenched in sweat, quickly bowed and apologized, "Captain, I..."
"It's alright. Even the most wicked person will feel fear. Step back."
"Yes... Captain."
The staff member quickly took his leave.
Fang Xiu casually picked up the spider lily on the table. Countless maggot-like tentacles wrapped around his palm, seemingly trying to take root in it, but no matter what they did, they could not pierce his skin.
