Wei Huo glanced at Auntie Li and realized that she was bowing respectfully at the end of the road before leaving.
Wei Huo continued walking forward. When he reached the end, he first saw nine pillars. The pillar in the middle was the tallest. The other pillars were scattered around that pillar, forming a clock-like structure.
Wei Huo then saw a gigantic white stone golem. The stone golem was about 70 to 80 meters tall, and half of its body was embedded in the mountain. Green moss covered half of it.
Wei Huo saw the stone golem looking up at the sky without moving. If it was not for the system notification, he would have thought it was a huge statue.
Wei Huo discovered the golem’s identity thanks to a system notification.
Mountain Giant, Epic, genderless, 398 years old.
“The sun should have reached its highest position 200 years ago. However, it has only just risen. Are we almost there? Or is this too slow?” the Mountain Giant mumbled. It was speaking the mountain language.
Wei Huo’s lips curled up slightly. “Are you saying the day has not grown? It’s because our reflexes and movements have accelerated? Is that why you think the day has been extended?”
Everything around him was still, as though he had reached the speed of light.
The Mountain Giant lowered its head and curled its lips slightly. “It’s very interesting. I really didn’t know what the statues protected by the golden light were at first. I didn’t expect them to come alive and call themselves humans a few days ago. I’m really curious about you guys. Why are you so special?”
Wei Huo stroked his chin. “Is that why you’re protecting them? Are you observing humans and trying to understand them? If you are, what will you do?”
The giant said, “I don’t know if I’ll do anything. Yes… As long as this doesn’t threaten my safety, I’ll be a pacifist. I believe that all living creatures in the world are equal. Humans, plants, and golems are all equal. I hope to get along well with all of them.”
Wei Huo nodded. Since such an Epic-ranked creature was living there and there was the natural barrier of the rose bushes, this place was indeed a paradise!
The Mountain Giant lifted its head and looked at the sky. “A hundred years ago, a group of humans riding pegasi appeared. All of them were at the Epic stage. They moved mountains and filled the seas, transformed mountains and rivers, and captured Epic-ranked creatures. More than a century ago, there was an extremely irritable Magic Tyrannosaurus nearby. However, it was captured. Otherwise, I would not have become an Epic creature.”
Wei Huo knew who the Magic Tyrannosaurus was.
One could not be too arrogant regardless of whether one was a human or a beast…
Wei Huo had been talking to the Mountain Giant for a long time. They were about the same age and they could talk about things. The Mountain Giant had its own views and thoughts on many things. Although these thoughts and views were not mature, they gave Wei Huo new inspiration.
During the conversation, Wei Huo thought to himself, I’ve never thought about these questions. I only answered them with the knowledge I acquired back then.
For example, the Mountain Giant had its own opinion on time. “There are eight hours of daylight and eight hours of night. Look at the pillars I erected on the ground in front of me. I named them Sundial and I use them to record the time. Look, the shadow has reached the longest pillar. That means one hour has passed.”
