Gold coin is justice

Chapter 569: Hosted by Darkness

Now, the tree no longer speaks.

The huge withered tree trunk seemed to be observing a very strange little creature, completely shrouded towards Airo.At first, Airo looked a little timid at the dry branches without leaves, but after making sure that these branches didn't feel like crushing himself, he also had the courage to reach out and gently Touching those branches and leaves.

For a long time...

It lasted so long that it seemed to Aylor that the day seemed to have passed.

(Ah, I fell asleep just now.)

What the tree said again made Airo feel that all of his words just now seemed to have turned into nonsense.

(But humans, I have to admit that you are really interesting. Well, since you have dark power in your body and the power of that "old friend", then I will give you a "present". )

The voice in his mind fell, and soon, green leaves and flowers began to grow on the dry branches in front of Ai Luo.After just a few minutes of metamorphosis, an emerald green fruit hung from the branch, as if to take it away quickly.

Ai Luo stared at the little emerald green fruit, and after hesitating for a moment, he stretched out his hand.The fruit fell lightly on Airo’s palm, unfortunately, it was stained with a little mud...

(Eat it.)

To be honest, since knowing that the nature of the force of nature is not as gentle as the legend, Airo began to seriously doubt the morality of the flower fairy and the tree of life.He fixed his eyes on the fruit in his palm and asked, "What is this? What is the use after I eat it?"

(Huh! Don’t you believe me? Okay, sure enough, you still don’t believe me! Since you don’t believe me, don’t eat it!)

With that said, the branches are about to flap.Ai Luo was shocked, and quickly threw the fruit into his mouth, chewed indiscriminately a few times, and swallowed.To be honest, the fruit has no taste, neither sour nor sweet, and even not much water.

(Hahaha! You eat it! You humans are really like this, you don’t dare to eat it specially for you, but once you are not allowed to eat, you will eat faster than anyone else! Hahaha! Look at your heart, you seem to Is it a self-proclaimed smart human? How about? It feels uncomfortable to be cheated by me one after another? Hahaha! You have been cheated again!)

This tree is a monster!

Ai Luo began to regret again, why would he swallow this thing in such a panic?Can things in nature be eaten casually?If something goes wrong, it will be troublesome!

Obviously, this tree is showing a very cheerful attitude towards Ai Luo's current concerns!This time not only the branches, but even the trunks began to wiggle wildly.With such a shameless appearance, it is really hard to imagine that this tree had the reputation of "the tree of life" before?

Well, the people in the past were either blind or too wishful thinking.

"So... this fruit... what the hell is it? I won't be poisoned?"

Ai Luo clutched his stomach, the sweat on his forehead was about to roll off.

(Hahaha! It’s fun, but you can rest assured as a human being. If it’s that simple, I can kill you. I’ve done this long ago. Well... after all, killing a life is true for me It’s a very troublesome thing. Forget it, let’s not talk about those things. After eating this fruit, you will have my mark in your body. As for the effect... I can use this to monitor the dark nature of your body. The amount of power can help you restrain it when you need it.)

that's it?

Airo suddenly felt a little lost.

The power that Napa stayed in her body could at least help herself withstand a fatal injury. This tree just left a watch in her body?The thought that his life will always be watched by a talkative old man tree in the future, this feeling like being watched by a pervert really makes Aylor feel a little uncomfortable.

But, as if he had guessed Airo's mind, the tree swayed again.

(Hehe, you humans really feel that you are losing if there is no benefit. Don’t worry, although this kind of thing is nothing to me, but for a human like you, there is still a so-called "advantage" . It’s just that this "advantage" may take a while to show up, so just be patient.)

So... what are the disadvantages?

Although Airo wanted to ask this sentence very much, but after thinking about it, let it go.This tree really doesn't feel very good, so don't get too entangled in this aspect now.

After feeling his own body for a while, and didn't notice anything unusual, Airo changed the topic again: "Then the hand of the devil, my human companion...can you let him go?"

(Oh, there is another human being! Hmm, if you don't tell me, I almost forgot him.)

This tree still feels so arbitrary, without any tension at all.It seems that everything in this world has only two distinctions between "interesting" and "boring".

Although Airo still wants to ask what the tree thinks about that demon, war and other things, but after thinking about it, it may be difficult for me to truly understand the story from the perspective of nature. Right.

As Iro thought about it, the twisted body of the dead tree gradually began to stop.After a while, the sound of footsteps from behind made Aylor turn his head unconsciously.

The fog parted, and the decaying and damp forests were now retreating to both sides as if they had automatically retreated to a road.A tree man who looked very similar to cream came slowly towards this side.And its hand was dragging a person who seemed to have fallen into a coma.

"Cream!"

Seeing the assassin lying on the ground and letting him drag him, Aylor was a little nervous and rushed to take care of him.

When the cream tree saw Ai Luo approaching, he let go and let the cream lie in this muddy ground.

Now the cream is full of wounds, Ai Luo felt a little creepy just by looking at it!

Many places on his chest, stomach, legs, arms, and face were full of various scars.Several wounds are even close to the fatal place!The leather armor on his body is now covered with blood, and now he doesn't move much, it looks like he is dead.

"Cream! Are you still alive? Hello!"

Ai Luo reached out and probed this guy's nose... breathing is still there, but it's really weak!Especially the big wound on the left chest, it looked like it was stabbed hard by a slightly frustrated weapon!Through this wound, Ai Luo can even barely see the weak beating heart inside!

Seeing the critical situation, Ai Luo quickly turned his head and shouted at the dead tree: "The hand of the devil! That... can you please save my friend?! Don't let him die!"

Treant Cream walked slowly towards the dead tree. After approaching, it pulled out the two stone blades from its waist and threw it in front of the dead tree, whereupon it rotted and disappeared.

The limbs of the dead tree trembled slightly.There seemed to be a big reaction to these two stone blades.

Facing Ai Luo's request for help, some more vines turned up from the black soil, wrapped around the dying cream, and lifted it up.

(The erosion is deeper than I thought. Humans, your companions have been swallowed by this dark force. For the safety of you and your human world, I still suggest letting this human die. Then, I will Responsible for purifying his soul, I'm not joking about that.)

Ai Luo grabbed a handful of mud from the ground, turned and threw it heavily on Cream's face.With a slap, the mud fell on the assassin's face.He immediately turned around, spread his hands over the dead tree, and shouted sincerely: "Really! I really ask you! Since it can be corroded, it must be washed away? We humans are an adaptation. A creature race with very good sex! Hand of the Devil, please! Although this guy is a bit unreliable, he really asks you not to let this guy die! Please!"

As a guild leader, Airo knows that the guild members in his hands are undoubtedly his own assets.

Even if it is not about feelings, companions, or economic value, a living cream is more valuable than a dead cream.

So if he can, he will do his best to keep the assassin alive.

Perhaps it was because Airo was so sincere, and the dead tree in front of him seemed to show a little tenderness.

Many branches began to stick out under the ground all around, and they touched the cream that was hung in mid-air one by one, just as if there is no more place to save this human being.

After a long time, these branches finally retracted to the ground again.

(If you don't want him to die, then I have a way.)

The vine entwined with cream rose, and a small vine slowly wrapped around the assassin's left ring finger, covering the shadow ring.

(He can no longer touch the power of darkness for a long time. The magic power in this ring should have been declining long ago, but now it still has magic power, which is the proof that he is being constantly eroded.)

Immediately afterwards, some branches descended from the dead tree again to extend towards the stone blade.But just after touching the stone blade, the two weapons immediately overlapped with each other and turned into a stone sword.Those vines also rolled up after a pause.
