Chapter 371: The Troubled New York City (5K Chapter!)

By the riverbank of the Ivi tribe village.

Hawk and Peter stood side by side, chatting while waiting for Felicia, who was talking to the High Priest of the Ivi tribe not far away.

After Felicia finished talking to the High Priest, they could leave.

Hawk had originally thought about going to talk himself.

But...

He didn't know how to bring it up, and Peter was as introverted as he was, so this matter could only be entrusted to Felicia.

In any case, the High Priest had not hidden anything, and Hawk had indeed found the Adamantium based on the clues given by the High Priest.

Although Hawk felt that the current Ivi tribe could no longer return to their so-called ancestral land to live again.

After all, without Kong's protection and given that they had already degenerated into indigenous people, if they returned to the ancestral land, they would likely be eaten alive by the terrifying creatures there, which were no less dangerous than those on Skull Island, before long.

But Hawk could not make decisions for the Ivi tribe, and similarly, Hawk did not want to make decisions for them.

Respect the fate of others.

So after returning, Hawk told Peter and Felicia the origin and truth of the Ivi tribe's ancestral land, and then the three of them voted two to one to let Felicia tell the High Priest about this matter.

Hmm.

It was very democratic.

Peter, standing on the side, said in a low voice, somewhat puzzled: "I still can't understand why the ancestor of the Ivi tribe, the Ikaris you mentioned, would kill his own descendants with his own hands."

Hawk shrugged: "Maybe he didn't want his own bloodline to suffer."

Why Ikaris did this, combined with what he had seen and heard and the plot he had once watched, he had also roughly guessed some of it.

As Eternals created by the Celestials to clear out Deviants and guard the final completion of the 'Emergence', their memories would be wiped after each 'Emergence', and then they would go to a new planet to guard the next 'Emergence'.

So the Eternals did not know the truth about the 'Emergence'.

The members of the Eternals knew they were sent to clear out Deviants, and after clearing them out, they would wait quietly for a new Celestial to be born, and then their mission would be completed.

But they did not know the true cost of the 'Emergence'.

The birth of a new Celestial comes at the cost of the destruction of a life-bearing planet.

However, it would be useless even if they knew the truth, because their memories would be completely wiped afterward, and then they would enter the next 'Emergence' cycle.

However...

Ajak, the leader of the Eternals, was an exception.

As the leader, Ajak's memories were always preserved, and she had always known that the cost of the 'Emergence' was the destruction of a life-bearing planet.

Not a joke!

In the past millions of years, Ajak, who had been faithfully fulfilling her mission of insisting on the 'Emergence', suddenly fell in love with Earth after coming here to execute this 'Emergence Plan'. She couldn't bear to destroy the Earth, even began to doubt whether her mission was correct, and gradually began to want to stop the arrival of the 'Emergence'.

For this reason, she found Ikaris and told him the truth about the 'Emergence Plan'.

After all, Ikaris was the future leader of the Eternals she had chosen.

So she hoped that Ikaris could also be like her, reject the mission, and protect the Earth.
