Chapter 387 New Information (Bonus Chapter)
The Holy Female is named Natia. She was an orphan of the nomadic beast tribe. Her mother died many years ago, and she did not know who her father was. She wandered around with the nomadic beast tribe.
Later, she was discovered to have manifested spiritual power by the former Holy Mother who was on a journey, and was brought back to the Holy City, entered the Holy Temple, and became one of the Holy Favored Females.
As time passed, her manifested spiritual power became the best among the Holy Favored Females. When the former Holy Female passed away, her spiritual power erupted, enabling her to communicate with the Mother Tree. As a result, the Temple promoted her to the position of Holy Female.
After telling him what he knew, Ryukas was still puzzled.
“You know her better than we do. You grew up in the temple, and all the holy females were your playmates.”
No one would have imagined that the former saint would pass away so soon.
The entire temple was in chaos.
After the death of the former Holy Queen, there were still beastmen who supported Jiang Xi to ascend to the position of Holy Queen, but she lost her outward spiritual power at that crucial moment, causing all the beastmen who supported her to instantly turn against Natia.
Of course, Jiang Xi couldn't tell him that she wasn't the original Jiang Xi and that she didn't remember those memories.
After learning about these past events, she inquired about the matter of her confused state of mind.
"Besides you, would other orcs who saw her also lose their senses?"
Ryukas: "I don't know about that."
Jiang Xi recalled that when she faced the Holy Mother at the edge of the tribe that day, she didn't see the Lion Roar tribe's orcs show any unusual behavior.
At this moment, Lu Liufeng lowered his head and said.
"Hill is outside, saying he has something to say."
Jiang Xi: "Let him in."
Along with Hill came Riley, who had jumped from the third floor.
He had already jumped down once, but Lu Liufeng blew him back. When he saw Hill coming, he quickly jumped down, taking advantage of his light.
He might want to sleep, but this isn't the time to sleep.
Hill was carrying a basket full of fruit, and he held it up.
“These were picked by Xiao Ai and Duobin from the mountain. They couldn’t squeeze in, so they asked me to bring them over.”
Jiang Xi smiled and said, "Please thank them for me, and invite them over to play another day."
Mu Ling hurriedly spoke up, "Let's get down to business. Do you know something?"
Hill placed the fruit basket on the long table and told what he knew.
"It was Xiao Ai and Hill who discovered it."
It turns out that the Holy City had taken in many orcs along the way, and some of these orcs happened to be acquainted with the outside orcs in the tribe.
They tried to talk to them privately, but found that they ignored them completely, and some even seemed not to know them, while they were extremely respectful to the Holy Mother.
If that were all, they would only think that these orcs were trying to curry favor with the Holy Maiden, which was why they were avoiding them.
But in the last two days, some orcs suddenly left the Holy City's ranks and secretly came to find them, saying that they might have been controlled by the Holy Mother before, and that they had been out of their minds, with only the Holy Mother in their eyes and no desire for anything else.
Although beastmen take pride in marrying holy females and favored females, they are not so delusional as to be unable to think straight.
Therefore, after regaining their senses in the past two days, many orcs, even those who still wanted to marry the Holy Maiden and the Holy Favored Female of the Temple, became afraid.
They approached some orcs they knew in the tribe and asked them if Jiang Xi was in the same situation. After receiving a negative answer, they asked them to help them make connections and seek protection from Jiang Xi and her earth-rank beastmen.
After hearing this, Jiang Xi thought to herself that it was exactly what she needed.
"If that's the case, then they only regained consciousness upon arriving at the Lion's Roar tribe, which means..."
She slowly followed the clues and pushed them forward.
What makes the Cursed Lands different from the outside world?
The answer is, "The power of a curse!"
Jiang Xi raised her dark eyes. "Could it be the power of a curse! The extremely strong curse power here caused them to break free from chaos and regain their senses?"
Izuki looked at Ryukas with a smile.
"In that case, you won't have to worry about your mind going into a state of confusion when you come into contact with the Holy Mother."
Ryukas's expression grew increasingly grim.
"Doesn't that sound even scarier?!"
"If the Holy Mother really does have some means to control orcs, when I come back and tell you, will you believe me or not?"
Opinions could not be reached.
Ryukas said he would never go, that he couldn't handle getting close to females, and recommended that Izumi go instead.
“Yi Yuexi has always been popular with females. Even the Holy Female treated him differently back in the Holy City and wanted to give him the Golden Soul Fruit to help him break off his marriage contract.”
Yi Yuexi narrowed her fox-like eyes.
"You stinky bird! Stop spreading rumors!"
Ryukas: "I heard everything."
Yi Yuexi chuckled and clenched her fist.
"I think you're just jealous that I'm popular with females!"
"And Duan Si, before the Holy Mother was the Holy Mother, often secretly went to the dungeon to bring him medicine and food."
Duan Si's face darkened. "You're spreading rumors about me. You're asking for trouble."
Realizing that Duan Si was really going to beat him up, Ryukas quickly tried to salvage the situation.
“But you didn’t take any of them. You would rather get hurt than accept the medicine and food that Jiang Xi and the others offered.”
As he spoke, he glanced at Jiang Xi.
It seemed to be implying something.
Seeing their disarray, Lu Liufeng frowned. "Alright, stop talking."
“I have a way to investigate, so don’t approach the people of the Holy City yet.”
