Zeke didn't know much about the primordial beast and urgently needed more information on it.
As the saying went, knowing thyself and thy enemy could ensure victory in a hundred battles.
Phoenix, on the other hand, was confused at Zeke's words. “A primordial beast? What is that?” she asked.
Zeke was skeptical. “You don't know about the primordial beast? Then what's the clue you said you're giving me?”
“The clue is that the sound of that bull's roar might have come from Minotaur,” Phoenix replied in a hushed voice.
“Minotaur? The Minotaur from TV shows?” Zeke asked.
Phoenix quickly shook her head. “No, of course not. Minotaur is just a code name... I'm talking about a devil.”
“Go on,” Zeke urged her.
Phoenix explained, “According to legend, there was a devil named Minotaur who ruled over the entire Theos Island before the island was discovered by Theos. Afterward, Theos and Minotaur reached some sort of agreement, and Minotaur retreated to the Beast District and only lived there. Humans on Theos Island are under the jurisdiction of Theos, while the beasts on Theos Island are under the command of Minotaur. Legend has it that Minotaur has great supernatural powers and can even transform into human form, and its strength is comparable to that of Theos.”
“I suspect that we have killed too many beasts, which has angered Minotaur, and that's why it was warning us,” Phoenix concluded.
Zeke was intrigued by Phoenix's “story.”
Legends were mostly based on the truth, after all.
The Minotaur in this legend was most likely the primordial beast they were dealing with.
The information about Minotaur in the legend was definitely related to the primordial beast.
“What else do you know about Minotaur?” Zeke asked Phoenix.
“In the legend, Minotaur can breathe fire from its mouth and nose, and the fire it breathes is no ordinary fire. The intensity of the fire is such that it is capable of causing a river to evaporate,” Phoenix said.
