Chapter 181
The Elder Roots of the Forest of Stars tells the story of the Tree Mother.
According to what it says.
A hundred years ago, there was a prosperous forest ahead. Under the management of the tree mother, the entire area was full of vitality and obeyed the laws of harmony.
This is perfectly consistent with Lindsay’s understanding.
Because long before the arrival of the dragon beast, the expedition team also recorded the situation here when passing by this canyon area.
They made no mention of any dangerous creatures lurking in the forest.
On the contrary, it was recorded that the scenery here was beautiful, and the members of the expedition team were in a good mood because of it.
They even gave it a name, the Forest of Stars, to commemorate a meteor shower they saw here.
It is a pity that the situation of the Star Forest has not remained unchanged after a hundred years.
When Dragon Head, the ruler of the Black Mountain world, comes, he will naturally not let go of such a vast area as the Forest of Stars.
The tree mother of the great forest, who originally followed the natural way, was also forced to join the dragon beast...
"Have you never thought about resisting?"
Lindsay listened quietly to the other party's news, but Hong suddenly spoke.
The girl was liberated from captivity by Lindsay before. Although she lost her memory, she also knew that her position as a prisoner and the dragon beast were definitely not good.
At this moment, I heard the so-called tree mother and chose to surrender to the dragon beast.
The dissatisfaction in Hong's heart was almost written on her face:
"If I were you, even if I risked my life, I would never give in casually."
Elder Gensu didn't care about Hong's contempt.
It explained this problem from the perspective of itself as a plant spirit:
"We creatures born from plants generally have long lifespans. Even if the dragon beast rules us, after a long time, it will eventually turn into the earth of nutrients, but the forest still exists."
"What's more, in nature, the law of the jungle eats the strong, and surrendering to the strong is not an unacceptable choice."
"Ha--" Hong snorted coldly and stopped talking to Elder Roots.
Lindsay did not comment on this, but just guided the other party to continue telling what happened:
"Since you beings in the forest accept the fate of surrender, then you should live in the forest and cannot appear here." "
Later Something else should have happened. This should also be the reason why you left the forest, right?"
"Human, you are very smart." Elder Roots agreed with Lindsay's inference, "About 52 evolution cycles...that's you humans. Thirteen years ago, the dragon beast sent an envoy into the forest."
At this point, Elder Roots paused briefly.
It seemed to think of some very terrible encounters, and adjusted its mood before continuing to speak:
"After the messenger arrived, he ordered the extraordinary beings in the forest to hand over the source of essence and help the dragon beast complete the advancement." "Master
Tree Mother originally She has a gentle temperament and loves nature."
"But as her essential power is continuously extracted, her character becomes twisted and violent. She is not like a forest tree, but an anti-beast."
The content of Elder Roots' narration is consistent with the reminder of the Corrupted Poisonous Spider. Gotta get the number.
Lindsay silently looked at the Starry Forest in the east. The green in her field of vision was endless. It did not fade even after disappearing from the horizon. Instead, it became even wider, almost becoming the earth itself.
This area is already vast.
Through the management of the extraordinary beings in the forest, it has continued to expand over thousands of years, and its area is equivalent to a large country.
Refer to the records of the expedition as they traversed the forest.
The Forest of Stars should be more than two thousand kilometers long from east to west. It has not been explored from south to north, so we don’t know how far it is.
Now the rulers are gradually going crazy in their submission.
It is completely foreseeable that some people will choose to cut off the tail of a gecko and escape.
"The tree spirits at the junction of the worlds must have escaped from here."
Lindsay sighed in a low voice.
Then he nodded slightly to Elder Gensu and expressed his approval:
"So you didn't want to accept this result, so you escaped?"
Elder Gensu quickly admitted:
"I have told you what I know. According to the agreement, you can Let me go..."
Lindsay suddenly interrupted the other party's plea:
"Yes, you have a reason to leave the forest. But this does not explain your behavior of reminding us. As an escapee who betrayed the tree mother, you are more You should be dormant here instead of coming out to alert you when you see someone." "..."
Elder Gensu was silent for a moment, but he soon found a reason.
"You two are both awakened human beings. If you are caught in the forest, you will undoubtedly help the dragon beast advance." "
I came out to remind you just to prevent him from..." "
This kind of ridiculous Don't tell me the reason." Lindsay interrupted the elder Roots once again, "How many awakened people of our kind are there in such a huge forest? Even if they are caught, two more of us will be a big problem. What can be changed?"
At this point, Lindsay's eyes became aggressive.
The neutral existence of the yellow mark will never take the risk to remind them.
Combined with the previous encounter, a bold idea emerged in Lindsay's mind.
Even if you guess wrong, you won’t lose a piece of meat!
At most, Hong would be ridiculed a little more during dinner tonight...
Lindsay made an instant decision, and the next second he asked in a stern tone:
"There should be someone else behind you, and it is precisely because of this person behind the scenes. Order, you give us a reminder."
"..."
Elder Gensu fell silent and stopped answering.
Lindsay continued to increase the coercion in his words:
"There is also the rock puppet that was lurking in my camp at the beginning."
"If you were still in the fifth stage and created such a big puppet, it might still be possible; but with you The current level four strength will definitely not have the corresponding abilities."
"Tell me honestly, who is instigating you behind the scenes!"
Elder Gensu's reaction was unexpected.
This guy who could be humble and begging in order to survive, now completely shut up and made no answer.
It was as if a decision had been made.
Even if it is killed by Lindsay here, it won't reveal any more information.
Sometimes, the attitude of not answering is itself an answer.
When Hong on the side saw the scene happening in front of her, she knew that Lindsay had guessed some truth.
But when faced with this problem, Elder Gensu chose not to cooperate.
"This is your choice!"
Hong showed no mercy to this, and her fiery red pupils became as cold as iron.
There was no hesitation in her movements, and the meteorite spear that had been hanging on Elder Roots' head immediately burst into red flames.
Boom!
Almost at the same time, the ground on the edge of the cliff trembled, making people unstable.
At the moment of Elder Roots' life and death crisis, an earthy-colored puppet appeared from the earth, holding his hands high.
It didn't know when it lurked, and it was located below the three of them.
Elder Roots is about to be burned to death by a meteorite spear.
It was also protected by its closed hands, trying to drag it underground.
"I want to run!"
Although the ground was shaking, the violence in Hong's tone was extremely calm.
boom!
The girl stepped on the ground and jumped up like an eagle.
The meteorite spear in her hand was held high in the flames, and she immediately aimed at the rock puppet that wanted to sink into the earth.
This blow will not only penetrate the puppet.
The root elder protected by it must also die!
"Please don't hurt him!" At the critical moment, a deep voice sounded from the rock puppet, "He just obeyed my instructions." "
If you want to know the truth, just follow this puppet to see me."
Whoosh - !
The next second, the meteorite spear in Hong's hand was thrown out.
The girl's cold voice was just a sentence of death:
"The truth?"
"You must die first before you tell me anything!"
