In the depths of the mist, Roya Akate looked at the black robe priest who was kneeling on the ground in front of him and fell silent.
At this moment, in front of the black-haired boy, the body of the former old man has undergone a complete change, his legs are constantly thickening into sharp roots and plunged into the ground, his body swells in all directions, tearing his clothes, and his bronze skin. It doesn't look like bark anymore, but it turns into a rough tree.
After seeing the current state of the savior sacrifice, one question after another was solved in the heart of the young man, why this guy is not a man or a ghost, why he can survive so many years, all such questions There is an answer.
Because this sacrifice is not a human being at all, but a tree man.
Before the savior fell, one of his gods was the sun god, which is nothing to other races, but for the tree species that rely on the sun as a necessary condition for survival, it is almost natural for them to follow the savior who rely on the sun. .
Thinking about it now, the guy who could reach the status of the savior high priest in that ancient period is almost impossible to be a human. After all, unlike now, the mythical creatures of that era are still crisscrossing the heavens and the earth, and there is nothing special about human beings when they were born. The ordinary race is not the protagonist at all, and in terms of longevity, human beings are far inferior to the tree people who are known for their longevity.
The enemy’s real body was surprising, but it did not cause Roja to have too much mood swings. It was not this discovery that really surprised the boy, but the expanding tree center, something incompatible with the surrounding tree trunks and branches. .
Internal organs.
In terms of size and shape, it is probably the human heart.
"Uh--!"
The weird scream-like roar came from the old people who turned into giant trees, making the eardrum tingling, and countless branches entwined each other, making the tree man’s branches thicker and stronger, and the enemy was constantly growing. Recovering state is extremely unfavorable for Roja, but the black-haired boy is indifferent to him.
It was not because of despising the enemy, nor because of being overly surprised. In fact, at this moment, Roja was experiencing a strange feeling in his heart that he had never had before. The black-haired boy with golden pupils stared at the hidden heart position. , Suddenly felt an inexplicable connection.
It was an indescribable sixth sense, as if there was an illusion of a line connecting with that weird heart in the body. When I felt this feeling, Luo Ya once thought he had a spell, but the facts proved The boy's body was not abnormal, and the strange heart was quickly covered up by the enemy.
The combination of the body of the tree and the internal organs of humans is undoubtedly weird, not to mention that Roja felt a strange connection. Looking at the hideous ghost tree, the black-haired boy released his curse power while swiftly. Thinking about it, and soon thought of something.
"That's it, you can pretend to be human because of that heart."
Luo Ya, who was talking to himself, narrowed his eyes slightly. The first thing he thought of was the appearance of the tree man before the sacrifice. The disguise that Luo Ya didn't even notice must be realized because of this human part.
Treants are difficult to move, and they are tall. This can be said to be common sense. But in the high mountains of the Akats, the Treant who was once a member of the Twilight Sage Society once said that some fallen treants in ancient times could use certain A special kind of incantation to walk freely in the world.
The drunk tree man did not explain the casual information in detail at the time, and he probably did not expect that one day Roja would be able to personally see the incontinence technique that the fallen tree man would use. However, for this ancient curse, it would affect the present. It's not important to the young man, compared with this disgusting spell, Roja is more concerned about another issue.
That's where this heart comes from.
Looking at the tree man whose body was almost fully expanded in front of him, the black-haired boy frowned and his face was extremely gloomy. Combining all kinds of strangeness, Luo Ya could basically make a judgment, that is, the tree used by the tree man sacrifice. His heart should belong to a member of the Alder family in the past.
This is not an unfounded guess, but the reality pointed to after sorting out various clues.
In this incident, Lilian and Roja fought against the tree man sacrifice several times, but no matter which time the other party did not use the almost instantaneous erasure when dealing with other people, Lilian once said that it was due to the blood of the king. Have resistance, but now it seems that I am afraid it is another possibility.
That is, that ability was born from the blood of the king, and it belongs to the residual ability of a certain **** who signed a contract with the awakener of the blood of the king.
Roja and Lilian are not resistant, nor are they not hit, but because the blood of the two are of the same clan, the attack has no effect, just as the attacker of the spell cannot hurt himself.
Thinking of this, Luo Ya's face was heavy, and the wonderful feeling in the tree in front of him constantly moved his heartstrings, which made him more sure of his thoughts and aroused great anger.
Killing the ancestors of the Alder family and using parts of their limbs as materials for spells, this kind of hatred even more than a thousand years later still impresses Roja.
Roja could accept the death of the ancestors, but could not bear their corpses being insulted. Thinking of the desecration of ancestors like Estreid who had guarded humans all his life after death, the raging anger in the juvenile body could not be suppressed.
"Uh--!"
In front of Roja, the huge treant roared again after a moment of regrouping. This time the voice brought madness and murderousness. After the body was restored, the strength of the treant sacrificial rites was finally brought into play, and layers of light shrouded in light. In the body of this huge monster, everything around has also undergone tremendous changes.
As if absorbing the surrounding vitality, the land where the giant tree was located quickly became barren, the building collapsed into rubble, and other flowers and trees were withered away visible to the naked eye, and a gray area was formed, centered on it. Expanding rapidly.
The dry wind blew across his face, and Roja's long black hair moved backwards. In the dimness, the boy seemed to see the phantom of death in the wind.
Obviously it is a tree man who symbolizes vitality, but the breath of death on his body is so strong that it is disgusting. Such a tree man can be said to expose the ugliness of the fallen to the fullest, and under his command, the gray area that **** everything is also He finally showed his fangs and rushed toward the black-haired boy.
It’s just unexpected that, in the face of this strong breath of death, the black-haired boy did not escape. He stood there, calmly looking at the filthy fallen, like a handle stuck in the ground. The sword is like a watcher waiting for the death knell to ring.
Then the next moment, the world changed.
"boom--!"
Just at the moment when the gray field was about to touch Roja like the roots of a tree, it seemed as if the loud noise that was about to drown everything suddenly came, followed by a fierce light rising into the sky, in front of the black-haired boy To demarcate, countless flames broke through the ground and sprayed upwards, completely submerging the huge body of the giant tree.
The ground fire and lava were compressed to the limit and turned into scorching light, soaring from the broken stratum, lifting the entire ground into the sky, the sand, gravel and soil were melted, and the body of the giant tree was also torn apart by the roar, but everything was still not end yet.
"boom--!"
In the violent sound of the ground, the golden world snake bathed in magma rushed out of the ground, and quickly approached in the strange screams of the treant, who had fallen for thousands of years. Faced with the sinner who had fallen for thousands of years, the mother **** of the earth opened up. The swallowing giant mouth sent purification and end to his sinful life.
The huge mouthparts blocked the waist to bite it, and the huge fire burst out, and the figure of the tree man sacrificed in the fire frantically struggling, but in front of the mother god, the weak resistance of the creatures relying on the earth was completely meaningless. The body of the tree man sacrificially burned completely, and the screams mixed with the crackling sound of the burning trees echoed in Roja's ears, intertwined as a farewell song to the sinner.
The fierce fire light dissipated the nearby fog, and the sound and vibration of the ground spread across the mountains, and the burning tree man was like a torch held high, showing the outcome of the evil man to all the wrongdoers in the world.
"[Collector], are you looking at here."
Looking at the bright light in the sky, the black-haired boy spoke softly while feeling the line of sight on his body, and the voice was calm and not fluctuating.
"Originally, I thought that you who had fought with the Alder clan at least had the style of a strong man, but now it seems that no matter how you decorate it, garbage will eventually give off a stench.
"Your goal this time is Senior Sister, it's a pity that I was disrupted by me, but it's just this dirty vegetative person who can't fully vent my anger."
"Next time, it will be you."
After speaking faintly, the black-haired boy fell into silence again, and as Luo Ya's words landed, the eyes of the [collector] slowly disappeared in the dark corner.
From beginning to end, Roja did not look back, but the enemy on the other side did not choose to do something or reply, because the man in the distance knew that the black-haired boy was a decoy. Once there was any rash action, he had already fully monitored the neighborhood at this time. The rising witch king would never let him go easily.
At the same time, it was obviously unwise to deal with the two Acate family members of Luoya and Lilian, but after the [collector] chose to retreat and left his sight completely, the figure of the witch next to the black-haired boy finally slowed down. Emerged.
"I didn't get the bait, he's a smart guy."
"Ok."
The white-haired witch frowned as she said so, Roja calmly replied, realizing that it was impossible to fight. The golden snake in the sky released her mouthparts and dropped the burning giant tree to the ground. The body re-entered the ground amid the rumbling noise.
The hazy white mist dissipated with the wind after the death of the tree man at the sacrifice, and the upheaval that broke out in the small town on the border of the Austin Empire came to an end.
-------------------------------------------------- ------
In a village where the mess had been turned into ruins, the black-haired boy was silent while watching the burning giant tree in front of him, while behind him, Lilian, who was under the protection of thousands of horses, had quietly arrived.
After [Portas’ Eyes] was sealed by Roja’s frozen earth, countless flame spirits disappeared. The situation on Lilian’s side was immediately relieved, and the girl who was worried about Roja’s safety waved along with it. The army rushed to help, but to the girl's surprise, the battle here seemed to have ended earlier.
Sweeping the nearby scene like a landslide, the black-haired girl came behind Roya under the cover of the cavalry. However, something strange made her look at the young man in front of the raging fire. Her arrival.
Lillian, who found something wrong with the teenager, raised her heart again. She thought about it, and walked up to Roya in silence, and asked while confirming the teenager's state:
"Roya... are you okay?"
"Senior sister...I'm sorry I just wandered, I'm okay here, senior sister, how about you?"
"I'm fine. Originally, I was also a feint. Although the flame spirits are strong, they don't know how to cooperate with each other, so they didn't cause any trouble. On your side, I didn't expect the battle to end so quickly."
"Well, it's good luck, that is the true body of the savior's sacrifice, and it is perfectly restrained by the mother **** on my side."
The black-haired boy pointed to the red lotus fire in front of him and whispered the battle, Lilian couldn't help but nodded slightly.
"It turns out that the words of the tree man really can't challenge the majesty of the mother god, besides, after using a strange spell, but that heart..."
"..."
Thinking of Loya's speculation just now, Lilian couldn't help but frowned her delicate eyebrows, anger and sadness appeared on her face illuminated by the fire.
If the juvenile’s speculation is correct, it means that the remains of the two ancestors who were killed by believers in the savior have been treated as curses for more than a thousand years.
Insulting the ancestors, this is a hatred for any family, even if the Alder family is no longer there, the surnames of Roja and Lilian are different, but this matter still makes the teenagers and girls resent hard. level.
Looking back and forth at the still burning corpse of the enemy and the heavy-faced teenager around her, Lilian couldn't help showing a distressed look on her face. The girl stretched out her hand to hold Roja's palm, and after thinking for a moment, she softly persuaded:
"Roya, although this matter is very uncomfortable, you can be regarded as revenge for the ancestors, so don't look at it."
The girl who said this stretched out her hand and stroked Roja's cheek, not wanting the young man to witness these ugly and cruel things, but Roja shook her head after a slight daze.
"No, Senior Sister, although it is indeed a bit sad, but I have not yet reached the point of sadness. Fighting these fallen people is the long-cherished wish of the ancestors to die in the battle, but it is a pity that I am actually waiting for this here. Burn it clean, and then take out the heart of this ancestor."
"Huh? Take it out? In such a fire?"
"Senior sister, have you forgotten? Ancestor-sir's spells are not effective for us, so on the other hand, the spells we use through our bloodlines can't hurt him according to this rule, right?"
"Ah, that's it."
The black-haired and purple-eyed girl nodded after listening to Roja's words. The two watched as the corpse of the tree man sacrificed gradually disintegrating in the flames. After the fire was slightly extinguished, the golden snake that Petra had transformed entered again. Into the ashes.
The search for a moment soon yielded results. Under the slightly nervous gaze of the young girl, the golden snake smoothly took the red heart that Roja had seen from the fire.
The heart stained with lava is still beating strangely at this moment, bits and pieces of lava dripping down to the ground and making a scoffing sound, but even under such high temperatures, this organ from a thousand years ago is Still unscathed.
The young man who had turned the guess into reality looked at the heart in front of him and remained silent for a while. Lilian beside him didn't know what to say. After a while of silence, Roja took the lead in reaching out his hand.
The two searched out the remaining heart from the ashes naturally not for viewing. In fact, in addition to wanting to bring it back to the ancestral land of the Akat collar for burial, the black-haired teenager has another purpose, that is Save people.
Although the battle is over, Paul and others are still missing. Then there is only one possibility, and that is that the spell that made the search team disappear out of thin air has not been lifted. Now all the clues point to this apparently still remaining divine power. Luo Ya naturally can't take it lightly.
Looking at the heart that was stirring and exuding layers of heat in front of him, the black-haired boy felt a little discomfort in his heart, but his expression did not fluctuate, and he still insisted on touching it, just at the moment Roya's hand held the heart. Countless memory fragments belonging to others also followed, completely submerging the teenager's consciousness.
"this is!"
"Roya, what's the matter with you?"
In just a few moments, Roya's brain turned white after seeing many things, and he couldn't help but stretch out his hand to hold his forehead and body shaking. Seeing this, the girl with black hair and purple pupils was taken aback, and hurriedly helped him up and took a look. The defensive spell was activated immediately after being nearby.
"[Ten Cities]."
With some anxious and worried voices, Lilian built a wall that was stronger than steel around Lilian, while the soldiers and horses that had been surrounding the two of them set up a defensive position.
Although the enemy has been turned to ashes in front of him, as the saying goes, Lilian will not make fun of Roja’s safety, so in the ruined town, the boy and the girl hugged each other until a long time later, When the mist was about to dissipate, the boy who relied on Lilian finally opened his golden pupils.
"Roya, are you okay? What was it just now..."
"Well, I'm fine, I just saw a lot of things."
The wryly smiling teenager answered the black-haired and purple-eyed girl in this way, then shook his head and whispered everything he saw.
