Chapter 238 There’s no going back


Chapter 238 I can’t go back

Aware of the sound behind him, Mumu couldn’t help but change his expression slightly and whispered.

“Hey, hurry up and hide!”

“If they find you, you’ll be doomed!”

Honestly, if there are just a few lone trees Man, Xia En really has nothing to be afraid of.

With his current strength, he can completely destroy them in a very short period of time.

But Xia En is worried that the action of killing the tree people will once again attract the attention of the entire forest, thus triggering the "giant tree craze."

At least for now, Xia En is still It does not have the strength to defeat a city with one person.

So, Xia En decisively found a place with dense vegetation and hid nearby.

Mumu took root not far from him, protecting Xia En behind her.

At this moment, several tree people walked out of the woods.

The leader of the tree people obviously knew Mumu and said: "Mumu, who were you talking to just now?"

"Haha... Could it be that you are talking to those people again?" Fantasy friends' chat? "

This tree man is much taller than Mumu, more than five meters tall, with lush branches and leaves.

According to the standards of tree people, it can be described as "strong".

With its appearance full of vitality, one can tell that it has converted to the [Giant Wood God].

"Nilge, what do I say or do have anything to do with you?"

Seeing these tree people, Mumu was not timid, but rather rude. He pushed back.

According to its experience, in this case, the more timid and fearful you are, the easier it is to be bullied.

Being more aggressive, even if you are a little bit fierce at heart, can possibly frighten these bullies.

However, the tree man named "Nigel" was not so easily frightened, it smiled lightly.

"Mumu, what you said is wrong."

"We are all old friends. Isn't it normal to care about your friends?"

It was a good thing that Nigel didn't mention this matter. As soon as he mentioned the word "friend", Mumu's eyes glowed with angry green light.

“Hey, friend!”

"Who told me before that you would never accept the [Seed of Life]? Then you turned around and became a believer in the [Giant Wood God]?"

"You have forgotten what happened in the past. Is it clean?”

Hearing this question, Nigel’s tree face didn’t look good either.

After all, it was nostalgic for the past, and what happened back then was indeed that it betrayed the friendship between the two of them, and it was speechless for a moment.

However, the other tree men next to Nigel were not so good-tempered.

One of the tree men sneered: "Nigel, what do you have to say to these conservatives who are destined to decay?"

"Anyway, in a few years, they themselves will be completely destroyed."

"By then, it will be too late for them to regret not being able to fall into the arms of the [Giant Wood God]!"

Another tree man echoed: "That's right."

"Brother Nigel has good intentions and wants to lead this guy to become a part of a greater existence. It doesn't appreciate it, so forget it, and in turn blames Brother Nigel."

In the trees nearby, Xia En secretly observed Mumu's communication with these tree people, and inexplicably thought of the bullying incident on the earth.

If you ignore Mumu and his tree-human race, they are actually just a group of young boys and girls.

At this time, deep down in Nigel’s heart, he actually didn’t feel that he had done anything wrong.

On one side is the decaying conservative faction, and on the other side is the new and growing reformist faction.

Isn’t it clear at a glance which side to choose?

It had witnessed with its own eyes the elders who were unwilling to accept the [Seed of Life], gradually decayed and eventually died.

That’s why I changed my original idea and accepted the [Seed of Life] given by the [Giant Wood God].

To be fair, Nigel didn't want Mumu to embark on this old path that was destined to perish, and kept trying to pull it onto the "right path".

In its view, it was really saving this former friend.

So Nigel advised again: "Mumu, listen to my advice."

"The old school is finished. The power of the old god is constantly weakening. This is the reason why you are becoming more and more decadent."

"Would this situation have happened hundreds of years ago?"

Hearing this, Mumu’s expression was stunned.

It knows that the conservative faction is declining and is being replaced by the growing power of the [Giant Wood God], but it does not know the reason behind this.

And this may be the reason why many tree people have changed their minds recently

Xia En in the bushes was also moved.

The "gods of the old days" Nigel spoke of undoubtedly refer to the Elf Goddess.

In other words, the power of the Elf Goddess is weakening?

What role does [Giant Wood God] play in it?

While Shane was thinking secretly, Nigel continued.

"Not only that, in a while, it is said that the executioners will carry out a major cleansing of the [City of Giant Wood]."

"If we don't fall into the arms of the [Giant Wood God], it will be too late!"

Hearing this, Mumu finally showed an expression of disbelief and murmured.

“The Executioner…The Great Purge…”

“No, this is impossible!”

"Uncle Farner is an elder among the executioners. If there is such an action, he will definitely tell us as soon as possible."

At present, although the old guard who insists on being loyal to the Elf Goddess is declining, they are still there after all. An old force passed down from ancient times.

The rotten ship still has three pounds of nails!

So, there are still some respected old tree people who are unwilling to betray their beliefs.

Most of their strength continues to weaken with the erosion of sea water, but their past identity and status are here.

Some are even elders in the tree people community.

Among some tree people, they still have a high prestige.

Old Hunter, as well as Uncle Farner as Mu Mu said, belong to this kind of remnants of the old era.

Hearing this name, Nigel couldn't help but look at Mumu with pity.

“Don’t you understand yet?”

"The elder Fana you trust has become one of us."

There was a "buzz" in Mumu's mind, and time went blank for an instant.

If the betrayal of his friend Nigel is still within the acceptable range, Mumu can accept it.

Then Elder Fana’s defection was something that he simply couldn’t believe.

In the heart of this little tree man, Fana's status is almost the same as that of old Hunter. They are both elders who have watched him grow up with his own eyes.

The other party also said personally that he would be incompatible with the followers of [Giant Wood God].

Those beautiful past events and precious memories are still vivid in my mind.

Why now...

"Brother, you..."

On the side, several tree men followers couldn't help but look at Nigel with surprised eyes.

Information like this is quite secret among them.

The elders have ordered that secrets must be strictly kept.

Theoretically, it is impossible to tell these conservatives.

Nigel waved his hand: "I have my own arrangements."

Mumu shook his head, shook the ridiculous possibility out of his mind, and asked: "Impossible... You must have lied to me! "

"This is fake, right?"

There was even a hint of pleading in its tone.

Looking at Mumu at this time, Nigel had a flash of sympathy in his eyes, but he still said.

"I wouldn't lie to you about this kind of thing." "Actually, this time we..."

At this moment, a voice sounded from behind Nigel.

“That’s enough.”

“Let me explain the next thing to it.”

Immediately, a slender-looking tree man emerged from Walk out of the crowd.

Its branches are much thinner than those of ordinary trees, and its leaves are light red and exquisite, giving people a pleasing feeling.

Among tree people, it might be a rare beauty.

Even its voice is very clear and sweet.

"Ge Lisi..."

Seeing this beautiful tree man, Mumu's voice trembled a little.

Seeing the other party's appearance at this time, it understood everything.

The reason is simple.

This Ge Lisi is the granddaughter of Elder Fana.

——Treants are of course genderless, but they also have different self-perceptions and preferences, and they have something in common with steam armor.

Ge Lisi is a rare tree person among the tree people who identifies as a woman.

Strictly speaking.

Ge Lisi should be regarded as Mu Mu’s childhood sweetheart.

After all, the two are close in age, both are conservatives, and they have close elders.

As time goes by, we naturally become childhood sweethearts.

Only in the past few months, the number of times Mumu saw Gelisi has been greatly reduced. Sometimes she would even see Gelisi moving in a hurry in the sea, as if she was hiding from herself.

Mumu originally thought that she had done something wrong and made Ge Lisi unhappy.

But now, it understands everything.

The vivid appearance of Ge Lisi regaining a new life is the state that can only appear after accepting the [Seed of Life].

Even if Ge Lisi used [Seed of Life], Uncle Farner’s attitude was already obvious.

"So...you have all already..."

Mumu smiled bitterly, feeling quite sad that there is no greater sorrow than death.

The feeling of being betrayed by a friend once was already very uncomfortable, and now, he was also betrayed by his elders and childhood sweethearts one after another.

Probably only it can experience the taste.

"I'm sorry."

Ge Lisi sighed softly: "But, I can't... go back."

As a bystander, Xia En looked at Got to have a weird expression.

Damn it, are there cows?

He thought it was just a simple bullying incident, but he didn't expect that it would involve so much love and hatred.

Putting aside Mumu’s tragic experience in this incident, Xia En still had a lot of fun watching it, it was simply a good show.

At this time, Gelisi continued.

“Actually, after I accepted the [Seed of Life], not only did I get rid of my original decayed body, I was also honored to be chosen as the saint of our Lord.”

"Being able to give the [Seed of Life] to the residents of [City of Giant Trees] on his behalf..."

Hearing this, Mumu suddenly realized something was wrong and said warily.

"Wait, Gelisi, what do you want to do?"

Nigel took a step forward, and together with other tree people, vaguely blocked Mumu's retreat, and said at the same time.

“Do you think, knowing so many secrets, you can still leave like this as if nothing happened?”

Mumu suddenly panicked.

It belatedly realized its dangerous situation and threatened.

"If I die, Grandpa Hunter will never let you go!"

Nigel shook his head: "You are wrong again."

" How could we kill you?”

"I have always treated you as a brother and a dear friend."

Gelisi took a step forward and walked towards the withered tree man who was constantly retreating, and said softly.

“Don’t be afraid, although it hurts a little at first, you will get used to it soon.”

“After that, you will become one of us and become a greater Part of it."

The other tree men whispered together.

"...Become a part of a greater existence."

They all have a fanatical and twisted look on their faces.

That look made them look extremely strange, as if some mysterious and evil will had descended on them and replaced their original souls.

Mumu couldn't help feeling frightened and panicked.

It doesn’t understand why Nigel and Gelis, who have been together for several years, have become so strange.

Mumu instinctively sensed that the existence called [Seed of Life] was definitely not a good thing!

But now, it has to accept the [Seed of Life] under the pressure of its former friends.

What an ironic and ridiculous thing this is!

As Gelisi got closer, a green "seed" gradually appeared on its arm made of branches.

It was said to be a seed, but it was about the size of a basketball. And it's still beating.

It feels more like a living heart, which is constantly activated under the stimulation of Song Lisi.

The extremely strong breath of life escapes from the [Seed of Life], making the tree people look intoxicated and enjoying themselves.

Looks completely harmless.

It even gave Mumu a strong attraction.

It was like there was a voice in the dark, driving it to accept the seed.

But the more this happened, the more Mumu became afraid of the [Seed of Life].

“If this seed enters my body, I will definitely become another strange me like Elise and the others!”

In this situation, the only way to save me is It seems that the only one I have is that weird human of unknown origin.

But Mumu held on and did not ask for help.

In his understanding, human beings have always been weak, so how could they be the opponents of Gelisi and the others in their prime?

"Please, please don't come out..."

At the same time.

Xia En was silently observing the strange seed.

“Is this the [Seed of Life]?”

He and Mumu felt similar. They both felt that although this seed exuded strong vitality, it also carried an order. The breath of boredom.

Suddenly, in a trance, some chaotic ghosts broke into Xia En's field of vision.

The [Seed of Life] in his eyes no longer looked like a seed, but quickly turned into an extremely ugly tumor!

Many tiny tentacles poked out from the sarcoma, groping around, as if they were imagining roots to take root in Mu Mu's body.

The flesh and blood is squirming, shrinking, talking in sleep...

One eyeball after another opens from the surface of the sarcoma, and there are countless compound eyes in each eyeball.

When Shane saw these eyeballs.

The eyeballs also saw Xia En.

The next moment.

All the eyes on the sarcoma suddenly burst open, and hundreds of tentacles also made a harsh and painful hiss...
