"If you have this determination, then I will tell you the whole truth!"

He sighed slightly, and as the old man in black began to slowly tell the history of the Mist Village, Zhao Mu's expression became more and more shocked.

This fog is not a natural phenomenon, but the product of the death of a fallen true dragon.

The world outside the fog is not the world of monsters, and even the invisible things active in the fog are not real monsters.

Those invisible objects are the products of the villagers in the foggy village who want to escape the fog, or return to the fog after death. They can all be regarded as part of the real dragon.

As for the villagers living in the fog, most of them are the "paintings" of the real dragon during his lifetime.

Only beings like Ada and Zhao Mu are the creatures truly born in this fog, and are called "sons of the fog" by those who know about it.

Before Zhou Sheng appeared, the "Children of the Mist" could live normally to adulthood.

It wasn't until Zhou Sheng plundered part of the power of the real dragon and created a sacred object called the "Mirage Pearl" that the "Children of the Mist" were considered real creatures.

However, as a price for plundering the power of the true dragon, the invisible beings that could still coexist peacefully with the villagers began to reject the Mist Village.

And this kind of rejection became more frequent as time went by and the villagers' desire to leave the fog became stronger.

This situation lasted until Zhu Nu broke away from the painting and fell in love and combined with Zhao Mu's father, A Da, reaching a certain extreme.

In desperation, in order to save the villagers and at the same time for his own son, Ah Da voluntarily reached a deal with Zhou Sheng and became the carrier of the new generation of "mirage beads".

Perhaps because of his status as "Son of the Mist", Ah Da, who also transformed into a skeleton giant, did not quickly lose his mind and be completely swallowed by the mist like his predecessors.

On the contrary, Ah Da, who transformed into a skeleton giant, persisted for more than ten years. It was not until recently that he voluntarily escaped from the fog and became a part of the invisible thing.

"Your mother also chose to be the carrier of the 'Mirage Pearl' for you, and that's how we are now."

Looking at the old man in black blankly, Zhao Mu was silent for a long time, and then finally asked softly.

"In other words, my mother has completely lost her mind? And she is still disappearing?"

When he said this, Zhao Mu looked at the violent skeletal giant not far away, and seemed to see the strong and gentle mother again.

At the same time, Zhao Mu finally understood that his father did not abandon his mother and son, but chose to become the "monster" he feared in exchange for the power to protect his mother and son.

"What should I do to save my mother?"

Looking at the old man in black with a firm expression, Zhao Mu knew that the other person would not simply tell him the history of the village when he chose to show up at this time.

The old man in black, or the old village chief, would choose to appear at this time, it must be because there is something that only he can do.

For example, his identity as "Son of the Mist".

"You're smart, so that's why I'm here."

Staring at the child he had watched grow up with a complicated expression, the old man in black finally hardened his heart and calmly stated the ultimate purpose of his trip.

"If you replace your mother and become a skeleton giant, maybe your mother can be saved."

"And compared to your mother, I believe that you, like your father, can protect the peace of the village for another ten years."

As soon as this was said, the scene fell into silence again.

The words of the old man in black undoubtedly told Zhao Mu to die. After all, he did not conceal the final outcome of the skeleton giant.

With the exception of Ah Da, the other skeletal giants were unable to cope with the increasingly frequent mist disturbances, and would eventually become invisible objects that completely lost their minds.

"I promise you."

Not letting the silence last long, Zhao Mu, who had already made all kinds of psychological preparations, spoke decisively.

"I will replace my mother and become a skeleton giant."

"But if you can't make my mother change back, believe me, even without those monsters living in the fog, I can destroy the village forever."

Faced with Zhao Mu's determination and vow, the old man in black did not show any anger, but accepted the condition very calmly.

"Of course I know this."

By this point in the conversation, both parties have basically made it clear what the other party wants.

Therefore, Zhao Mu did not hesitate at the moment and asked the most critical core question of the entire incident - how to become a skeleton giant?

"What should I do next? To replace my mother and become a skeleton giant?"

Hearing this, the old man in black stretched out his hand and pointed at the skeleton giant who was still fighting with Ah Da, or to be more precise, he pointed at the orb on its bone crown.

"That is the 'Mirage Pearl', the source of power of the Skeleton Giant."

"I will take off the 'mirage' later, you just need to swallow it."

boom! boom! boom!

On the other side of the battlefield, the battle between the four-armed giant and the skeleton giant once again became tense.

Ah Da was originally the strongest skeleton giant in the past, and he had the entire fog as his power backing. His strength was far beyond what this new skeleton giant could match.

However, this new skeletal giant was transformed by Zhu Nu. Even if Ah Da had ten thousand abilities, it would be difficult for him to be cruel to his wife.

After all, the reason why he was willing to become the carrier of "Mirage Pearl" in the first place was for his wife and children.

Therefore, knowing that the continuation of the war would be detrimental to him, the four-armed giant transformed by Ah Da was still unable to kill the skeletal giant.

boom!

Just when the four-armed giant once again turned into reality and avoided the attack of the skeletal giant in the form of mist, a dark light and shadow suddenly joined the battlefield.

Sigh—boom!

Like a sharp saber tearing through the battlefield, the black shadow that was too fast to be seen just passed by and successfully cut off one of the Haigu Giant's thighs.

Rumble...

Following a violent turmoil, the skeletal giant who lost one leg fell to the ground without any accident.

This sudden scene not only made Ah Da a little stunned, but even Zhao Mu on the side couldn't help showing a shocked look.

Is the old man in black in front of him, who is as fast as the wind and very aggressive, still the old village chief he knows?

Even though Zhao Mu had long accepted the fact that all the villagers had another side, he was still shocked by this sense of gap that broke his three views.
