Silent Crown Chapter 58: Dark Earth Mother


  Extremely evil mother, the source of the beast tide, the evolutionary whirlpool...

   For hundreds of years, humans have given many ‘calls’ to the Dark Earth Mother. For the entire human world, the darkest Earth Mother is undoubtedly the most poisonous among natural disasters.

   At the end of the Dark Age hundreds of years ago, the Three Kings drove it to the Northern Ice Field. It wanders in the dark world, disappearing from time to time, and always leaving disaster-like mutations and monsters wherever it passes.

   In its own right, there is actually no body that can be described completely. It is difficult for humans to define what it really is, so countless attacks and crusades can only severely damage it, but cannot eradicate it no matter what.

   is like a deformed disease in nature. You can perceive its coming through the world around you, but you cannot really touch it.

  In the description of many classics, its pattern is defined as a wriggling ring.

  Some philosophers think that its body is an indescribable cycle, but as we all know, philosophers are useless in most situations.

   In the current description, it is a collective natural disaster formed by a collective of creatures. An organization formed by countless birds, beasts and mutant demons.

   But this description is not exact, because the Dark Earth Mother has no substance at all.

   People can feel that where it is, it is like an invisible force drawing the ground into a circle. In this circle, it is difficult for any creature to leave. This is a phenomenon formed by biological roots of attachment and strong resistance to the outside world.

   But within the circle, all living things will be liberated from ‘common sense’ and begin to grow and evolve almost crazy. Immediately afterwards, they swallow each other, deform or merge.

   Within a short period of time, young chicks will become giant beasts, insects and ants will become legions, fish will grow out of limbs and walk ashore... even humans will become monsters.

  All living things have accelerated their evolution thousands of times in a short period of time, forming different patterns based on the lack of the entire food chain and regional elements.

  In the end, even an ordinary forest will become a place for demons to live. If there is unfortunately a human village in it, the consequences will be even more troublesome.

  Because compared to the bloodthirsty beasts, once humans become monsters, they are more terrifying...

The corpse of the monster that Father    and Wolf Flute saw after they dug up the sarcophagus, even if they were already dead, still had animalistic ferocity and killing intent on the shell.

   For hundreds of years, countless blood and tears of history have proved a truth.

  ——Reckless evolution will only invite disaster.

   However, the entire "Circle of Evolution" will sooner or later collapse due to abnormal evolution. The'Dark Earth Mother' exhausted all strength and vitality in this round of'pregnancy', and then'dead'.

   At that time, the deformed monster will be the strongest in fighting for no reason, and will be awarded the title of ‘Child of Mother Earth’. Immediately afterwards, the restraint lost its effect, and the beast came out of the cage and ran in all directions...

  , the earth mother who died will be reborn from the dark world again after several years of brewing.

  -

   This pathological cycle full of abnormal evolution has existed for hundreds of years.

   It doesn't have any consciousness, it just swims in the dark world, sowing the seeds of disaster along the way. But the sons of the mother earth inherited their malice towards humans from their mothers, greedily thirsting for human bones and blood.

   It is like a necrotic cyst parasitic on the world, it is infinitely poisonous. Only hundreds of years ago, the alien creatures left behind by the Dark Earth Mother in the hinterland of mankind have not been completely eliminated.

   You know, all the demon monsters in this world can trace their bloodlines upwards, and almost all of them can find the same mother.

   Because of this, it is considered to be the most threatening existence among all natural disasters.

  Any musician must report to the church after discovering its existence. A scepter-level musician will lead a team of more than 100 people to fight against it.

  Of all the natural disasters of living creatures, the Dark Earth Mother is undoubtedly one of the representatives.

  "But not all natural disasters are as troublesome as the Dark Earth Mother. In fact, some natural disasters have no idea what they are doing... Maybe they don’t know why they exist."

   After the lecture, the teacher’s tone relaxed a bit:

   "For example, the most harmless natural disaster in the world. Every night we can look up and see it shining in the night sky like a crown..."

   "Star ring?"

   Ye Qingxuan couldn't help but blurt out, and then he was stunned: "That is also a natural disaster?"

   "Yes."

Teacher    nodded, drew the coordinates and images of the stars skillfully on the blackboard in the classroom, and finally drew a horizontal line from west to east with a chalk.

   That is the celestial phenomenon called the star ring.

   Every clear night, cloudless weather, everyone can look up and see the countless stars shining in the sky, and the river of light that seems to be a gathering of stars, running across the night sky from west to east.

  Some people call it the ‘sky orbit’, which corresponds to the earth’s axis and becomes an important coordinate point. All astrology and geology in the world are formed on this important coordinate.

   For thousands of years, it has been hanging high in the night sky. Everyone thinks that it is a dense starlight projection, but according to the researcher's exploration, it may be a phenomenon where the amount of ether is so huge that it is unimaginable.

   For a long time, few people may have thought that in the night sky, there is a silent rush of a river formed by the convergence of ether.

   is obviously a natural disaster, but its presence is so thin for most people. In history, almost never had any impact on the human beings on the ground, nor killed anyone... Of course, the two of those two years ago grew up looking up at the starring, so they also want to fly after they grow up. Sky, confidently studied the aircraft, but the pair of musician brothers who flew halfway up exploded were not counted.

  Remember what are they called? Brother Wright?

   For a period of time, many musicians lived on this paragraph...

   On the podium, after the strange teacher finished this paragraph, he laughed at the table for a long time. As a result, the people below didn't find the laughing point at all, and there was only an awkward silence.

   "Ahem, just to liven up the atmosphere just now, don't care."

   He finally finished laughing, dragged a chair and sat down, resting his elbows on his knees, propping up his chin.

   was only smiling, but his eyes became cold, like a sword in his hand:

  "What I will tell you next, I hope you can listen carefully.

   If there are idiots who don’t think it doesn’t matter, that’s okay. It’s just that even if you hang up because of this in the future, there is nothing to be a pity if you want to come? "

  "If the Dark Earth Mother is the source of disaster that the entire mankind is afraid of, then this is the natural enemy that all musicians need to watch out for the most.

   Since the Dark Ages, it has appeared with the fall of the first musician and has become a mortal enemy of the Order. For hundreds of years, it has deceived countless lost musicians into the darkness and became their own minions. "

  He paused and said the name softly:

  "Its name is-Cthulhu·Hundred Eyes."

  -

   Before the voice fell, a voice rang outside the door.

   Outside the classroom, Bain, who came from nowhere, knocked on the door: "Sir, if it's convenient, would you like to take a step to speak?"

   "啧."

Teacher    grumbled uncomfortably, and stood up and waved to the students: "You read the book by yourself first, and I'll be back later. That who...save me some durian!"

  "……"

  -

  -

  "Mr. ‘Administrator’, long time no see."

   Outside the lecture theatre, Bain stroked his chest and saluted: "I didn't expect a representative of the Musicians Association to come here. I'm sorry for the loss of welcome."

   "I remember you are... Mr. Bain?" The administrator cast a glance at Bain: "If there is anything you'd better say quickly, I'm a little unhappy to be called out during class time."

   Bain was taken aback for a moment, his expression turned a little ugly, but he was not easy to attack.

   He took a deep breath, lowered his voice and said:

  "The school just learned that someone from the Musicians Association replaced the teachers in the first class. Although the Musicians Association has certain jurisdiction over all musicians, it would not be too dismissive of the Royal Conservatory of Music. Inside?"

  "Maxwell asked me to take this class. You don’t know it’s your own problem. What can I say to Maxwell."

  The administrator said lightly: "Of course, if you don’t put your principal in your eyes."

  "...Since it was arranged by the principal, that is another matter."

   Although that is what he said, Bain’s expression like eating a fly still illustrates his current entanglement in mood.

  Whoever comes across this kind of opponents who wear small shoes, put on eye drops, and put some stumbling on you from time to time will feel upset, especially when the principal is born on the side of reason. The public refutation is definitely The most unwise choice.

   So, he changed the way and took a look at the direction of the lecture hall: "However, Mr. Administrator, it’s better not to tell the evil spirits to them at this stage, right?"

  "Mr. Bain, have you lived in a greenhouse for too long?"

  The administrator looked at him with a strange look: "When did the musician start, has he become a title of respectful gaze in the luxurious banquet of the upper class?

  If you become a musician, it’s a matter of course to step on the battlefield, right? Isn’t it justified to know your enemy? "

   A ruthless irony made Baine's expression look ashen~IndoMTL.com~ He tried to restrain his anger: "For them, it's too early to hear this.

   Besides, Cthulhu's secrecy level is not something they can touch. "

   "The content of my arrangement naturally has reasons for my arrangement, and it is not my turn to interrupt. If you have something to do, please talk to your principal."

   The manager became a little impatient: "Is it just for such boring things? I'm going back, why should you go. What a good musician, what kind of intrigue every day... …"

   Bain's expression turned blue and white, but he reached out and stopped the administrator.

   "What do you mean?" The administrator squinted at him.

   "The person who came out for you is actually not me."

   Bain reluctantly stepped aside and looked at the direction upstairs: "Today is the first day of school. A distinguished guest came to the college to visit the new generation of musicians on behalf of Her Majesty the Queen. He saw you in class. I'm looking for you to relive the past."

   "Oh?"

  The administrator thought for a moment, then cast a glance at him, then laughed softly: "So...it's no wonder your mouth is sour, because I took your chance to show off."

   Bain turned around in silence, leading the way.
