Hollow Knight: Hallownest

Chapter 177 Journey

"Huh~, I haven't felt so comfortable for a long time."

Mo Rong leaned against the edge, his body paralyzed in the water, and breathed a long sigh of relief. Even the hornet next to him snorted softly.

"How is it? This hot spring is very comfortable."

Mo Rong turned his head and looked at Bumblebee, who was imitating him and leaning on the shore, and chuckled.

"Yeah, but this hot spring also has those... heads?"

"Where did they come from?"

Bumblebee looked at the giant skulls behind them. A steady stream of hot spring water gushes out from their mouths and poured into the hot spring pool below them. There was some doubt in their eyes.

Mo Rong followed Bumblebee's gaze and stretched out his hand to scratch the mask.

"Hi~, I really haven't thought about your question."

"But I guess that water may have come from very deep underground? Then it was discovered by insects in the past and carved into this shape?"

"Is that so?"

Bumblebee turned his head again, his eyes flashing with thought, and after a while he frowned again.

"Then why do I feel like I'm being filled up in this pool?"

This feeling was really hard to describe. She thought about it for a long time and didn't know how to describe it.

Mo Rong's eyes were strange, what kind of tiger-wolf talk is this? But he soon understood what Bumblebee meant.

"Is it that feeling of gradually filling up from the inside out?"

"Uh-huh!"

Bumblebee nodded, holding a pool of water in his palm and savoring it carefully.

This was not a problem for Mo Rong. The reason why Bumblebee felt this way was simply because she had the blood of the White King in her body, and the hot springs also happened to have the effect of replenishing the soul. He was about to open his mouth to help Bumblebee clear up his doubts. But just as he was about to speak out, he paused.

No, Bumblebee had always called White King 'Uncle King' before. Is that possible?

"Sister Wasp, you...do you know your life experience?"

"Why are you asking this suddenly?"

"Uh... just think I'm just curious."

Bumblebee stared at Mo Rong, unable to tell anything from his eyes. He was silent for a while and said:

"I was born in the Deep Nest since I was a child. My mother also lived in the Deep Nest. However, my mother sent me to the palace when I was still young. What happened after that..."

"Sorry to interrupt, but... where is your father?"

Mo Rong sat up straight, fearing that he would miss something next.

Hearing Mo Rong's question, Bumblebee was speechless for a moment, with a little sadness in his eyes.

"My father... died before I was born, that's what my mother told me."

"This...I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked this question."

Seeing Bumblebee's depressed expression, Mo Rong was sure that it turned out that Bumblebee's life experience had been concealed all along, and neither Hera nor the White King and his wife chose to tell her the truth.

Then it would be inconvenient for me to talk too much.

The atmosphere became deserted for a while after this topic ended, and Mo Rong did not dare to say anything at this time. After a while, when the soul in his body was filled, he stood up and extended his hand to Bumblebee.

"Sister Wasp, shall we continue moving forward?"

"Ah."

Bumblebee shook his head slightly, his eyes clear again, but instead of taking Mo Rong's hand, he stood up and glanced sideways at him.

Murong smiled and pretended that nothing happened, turned around and walked forward.

Ever since they got off the tram, the two of them haven't encountered any big troubles. Those scurrying Gapids also easily escaped under the leadership of Murong. Occasionally, Ke Chen emerged from the ground. Needless to say, Mo Rong didn't even need to take action, the hornet had already chopped it into several pieces.

It seems that he has a grudge against the person who carved the dust.

Bumblebee looked at Mo Rong's back. In fact, she also had a lot of doubts in her heart. After holding it in for a long time, she still couldn't help but speak out.

"Uncle King, did he give you the map?"

"Map? What map?"

Mo Rong asked while looking ahead. Bumblebee was stunned and spoke a little hastily.

"A map to my house, don't you have one?"

Mo Rong withdrew his gaze and looked at Bumblebee behind him, with a speechless look on his face.

"Sister Wasp, you have been following me all the way. When did you see me take out the map?"

"Then you don't know the road and you still walk so easily!"

Bumblebee stamped her feet anxiously. Seeing that Mo Rong had been walking in front of her, she thought he knew the map to where her mother was.

"Uh... no, don't you know the way home?"

"I......"

Murong's words made Bumblebee choke for a while. She held her forehead and looked at Murong again.

"I have been sent to the palace by my mother since I was a child. This is my first time back. How can I know the route?"

"Then you didn't say anything at first? I thought you knew."

Bumblebee ignored Mo Rong and walked up to him in three steps. He looked around carefully and sighed slightly.

"Forget it, let's keep going. Maybe it will bring back memories of my childhood, and I might be able to find it then."

After saying that, Bumblebee continued to move forward, and Mo Rong quickly followed her pace and walked aside.

He wasn't too anxious, after all, the deep nest was not very big, and he could always find it if he walked around a lot.

The deeper you go, the more complicated the rustling sounds coming from your ears. Because there is no earthquake, there is no need to worry about Gapid suddenly jumping out.

"It's Spider-Man!"

The dim light emitted by the light fly lantern shone towards the stone wall, reflecting the figure of the deep nest hunter. Upon seeing this, Mo Rong pulled out the bone nail and was about to strike at it, but he was stopped by the hornet before he could take two steps. .

"What are you going to do?"

"Crack it."

"Why did you chop it?"

"Because it..."

Murong was just about to say that these Deep Nest Hunters would spray venom, but then he suddenly remembered that the Deep Nest Hunters were not infected by the radiation plague. He looked at the Deep Nest Hunters, and sure enough, the eyes on its head were not what he had imagined. orange, but the normal black.

"Sorry, I was confused, I thought it was going to attack us."

"Don't worry, it won't."

Bumblebee gave Mo Rong an affirmative answer, with a little excitement in her eyes. The appearance of the Deep Nest Hunter meant that she was not far from her mother. Thinking like this, her pace accelerated a lot.

From here on, Murong felt that the White King's worries seemed a bit unnecessary. Whether it was the hunters of the Deep Nest or the small weavers who suddenly appeared, or even the stealth believers lying in some passes, these kind of people who were one of the best in the Deep Nest Strong enemies will not show the slightest hostility towards Bumblebee.

Instead, Mo Rong, who was walking next to Bumblebee, became the target of the stealth believers. Fortunately, Bumblebee stopped him with words, otherwise he would definitely have been hit a few times.

Okay, okay, Mo Rong finally understood. It turned out that the words that King Bai said before leaving were meant for him.
