Chapter 51
The tree god of the tree god tribe is hiding in the torrent of time. If it were not for the flash of inspiration of boss Ceobe, almost no one would remember this huge tree that has been sleeping for countless years.
Those who devoutly worship it as a god are too pious to test it, so they are not aware of its huge size, but the middlemen just regard it as a larger mysterious plant.
It was no different from other plants. He could kill it when he wanted to and pull it out when he wanted to.
While Monks and Heskaya were waiting at the B&B, the middleman traveled alone to many areas of Linling to determine just how huge the ancient tree, buried deep in the mountain, was.
The huge monster that took root in the plate and occupied the entire mountain gave him a good idea to have some fun.
What would happen if something like this started growing?
This mysterious plant, which is more than 2,000 years old, is considered to be at the top of the CPA cooperative mystery archives.
After all, other mysteries of the same era or even older are now sitting in the highest city in the world, sleeping in "Laputa in the depths of the sky".
The middleman thought with disdain.
So what if it’s been more than two thousand years?
Most of the older mysteries have disappeared in the long river of time, and even those that remain have to sleep in Laputa.
This old tree must be no exception.
Are older things more powerful?
The middleman never believes this, he only believes that the wheel of history must be brand new, he only believes in himself. Even if it is such an antique, it must be under his control, like a plaything.
"Although the process was a bit troublesome, you are really wise and finally chose to cooperate with me. Otherwise... this tree, no, the honorable tree god, no one will be able to save it."
The middleman was holding a ruler-shaped box carved from a branch. There were many empty spots on it, and nothing was left after being worn away by time.
This is the purpose of his trip, and it is also one of the ultimate mysterious items with wood attributes that the boss specifically requires.
This box, combined with the Heshu Town puppet materials brought by Sha, will be the perfect oriental wooden talisman that the boss needs.
At that time, they will be one step closer to that great wish that can fulfill the wishes of tens of thousands of people.
Ulig looked silently at the arrogant and complacent middleman, who was only half-wearing the black crying face mask, revealing his straight chin.
Those shallow, long and mean lips were smiling madly at this moment.
Not long ago, this uninvited stranger appeared in the snow and was discovered by the chief's son. The chief of the Tree God Tribe thought he was a lost tourist, so he quickly gathered several strong men and took his son to rescue him.
The middleman who came to the Tree God Tribe was respected as a guest by the simple tribesmen. He brought Ulig, who was lost in the snow, back to the tribe in order to gain the approval of the priest, and then put forward conditions that the priest could not refuse.
He has a way to revive the dying tree god.
All it requires is a tiny bit of effort from everyone.
"Don't look at me like that. Trust me, I will be the middleman between you and the tree god and fulfill your wish."
The middleman put the wooden box into his pocket, and Ulig's pale eyes shifted his gaze.
That was extracted from the tree god, something that even the Tree God Tribe, which had lived with the tree god for such a long time, did not know.
When this guy took out this thing not long ago, terrible vibrations spread outward from the tree god, like a mysterious rage.
The boy pursed his lips tightly, like a black panther on alert. His body was controlled by the other party most of the time, but he still retained his self-awareness.
"My sister is missing. What did you do with her?"
Ulig's voice was very soft. He did not continue with the other party's words, but instead asked deeply.
"Your sister?"
The middleman showed a look of sudden enlightenment, "Didn't you lose your sister yourself? Why are you asking me?"
The middleman smiled maliciously, "You were the one who trapped her in the tent in the name of protection. Now she is missing, and it is your fault. Why are you asking me, an innocent and kind person?"
"you--"
It was you who put her under house arrest—
Ulig's pale face almost turned red with anger. Little Una had the blessing of the tree god. The other party didn't think that he didn't hear him and those men in black discussing how to strip away little Una's supernatural powers for use in their organization.
He was so angry that he wanted to rush over, but the priest behind him held his shoulders tightly.
"Calm down, Young Chief... The tree spirit will soon be revived... Everything will be fine... Master Middleman, you may begin."
The priest's face was crisscrossed with ugly fleshy branches. He was the first person to accept the middleman's so-called method of "saving the giant tree" and swallowed the grass seeds. Now there were even small, delicate and beautiful flower buds on the branches.
No matter who looks at it, they cannot recognize that the monster in front of them is the messenger of the tree god and the tribal priest who was once loved by everyone.
Ulig was speechless and wanted to struggle, but the priest's hands were as hard as old trees frozen by snow in the forest, holding him down tightly. His strength was so great that it was beyond human.
While struggling, he suddenly looked up and suddenly saw a shadowy figure in the crack of the stone dome.
It seems to be... those high school students living at the foot of the mountain?
Ulig silently gave up struggling. He did not attract any attention from others. Instead, he spoke to cut off the possibility of those people being discovered: "... Let's get started."
The middleman used his sister to threaten him into voluntarily assisting him, but now that his sister is gone, he has no reason to stand on his side.
The middleman snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "Do you need to say anything more about this?"
"Put yourself in your place. You have no right to question me."
He turned around and clapped his hands. Several members of the Keobe team who were wearing black winter clothes came over and took the small black and white pixel-like flag made of EN factor from his hand.
"Put them at the three corners centered on this place, and my special ability will automatically activate the formation."
The middleman casually threw three small flags into the hands of the unfortunate members of Ceope, then turned his back and sighed.
"Grow up, Lin Ling, curb your instincts."
His voice was not loud, but it was clearly conveyed to everyone present, carrying a special mysterious power, like a director announcing the beginning of the story.
Of course, no director would laugh so gloatingly as he does, and actually take pleasure in the calamities of his protagonists.
Even though Gu Qingming and the others were slow to react, they finally realized what Ceob wanted to do.
The tree god of the tree god tribe is about to die, and the middleman, like the priest, is eager to restore the tree god's activity for some purpose.
It takes a huge amount of nutrients to ripen such a mysterious plant.
And those villagers and tribesmen who were standing unconsciously under the stone platform were them.
As official CPA specialists, they cannot be so naive as to think that it is really just a small price to pay.
Looking at the appearance of the priest, he was no longer conscious, his body was covered with branches, and he was half-dead. However, the only thought in his mind was to save the tree god.
He looked at the gray giant tree with an extremely eager gaze, and murmured while spitting blood from the side effects of branch growth: "Lord Alin has protected us for many years. I can't repay him. Even if I sacrifice... even if I sacrifice the entire tribe, no, everyone in Linling, I will ensure your recovery..."
Gu Qingming and others: …
Good news, gratitude must be repaid.
Bad news, too much gratitude.
An atmosphere of silence began to spread in the cave. No one could remain calm in this situation. Only Gu Qingming, with a serious expression, held down Chu Zhongyuan, who was about to jump down and slap the middleman hundreds of times, as naturally as if he was holding a cow cat by the scruff of the neck.
"Calm down first. I heard footsteps. One of the three teams of Ceope that planted the flag should be nearby."
The winding green wind snake flew back from the direction of the snow cave, circled around Gu Qingming, and then turned into a green light spot and dissipated.
Before entering the snow cave, he released the wind snake to guard against the appearance of CPAs around him, but he didn't expect to use it here.
"Luo Dong, you and Xiao Unaam stay here and help me monitor the actions of the middleman. The three of us will go out..."
Gu Qingming stood up and touched the bronze snake-shaped brooch in his pocket, his voice firm.
"Pull out the flag."
The young man was tall and slender, his back was straight, and his usually gentle and silent eyes and brows became sharp, showing his determination to destroy everything.
The wind is not only gentle, it also has the terrible destructive power of a natural disaster, sweeping away everything.
Ceobe's behavior is simply dancing wildly in everyone's minefield, spending others' money generously and disregarding life...
What he did was enough for the Supreme Trial Court of the Eastern C District of the Themis International Mystical Law Society to sentence him to death.
The moment he finished speaking, Chu Zhongyuan, who had long since lost control of his anxiety, rushed out.
Luo Dong nodded without refuting. There was a silent walkie-talkie as a communication tool in the deep mountains where there was no signal. Whether the middleman's formation would be activated or not ultimately depended on the middleman's actions. They must have someone here to observe the other party's actions so that the companions fighting with Ceobe could completely destroy the flag before the other party started.
Luo Dong, who is a healing person and has certain combat abilities, is the best candidate to stay.
He watched his three companions walk willingly toward danger with the rage of a CPA.
Little Una looked at the three older brothers who were leaving. She looked at her fingers, and the light green spots disappeared. She was too young and could not control her abilities well.
"...Unagi, it would be nice if you could help me."
Little Una also realized that she had abilities but could not control them, so she was unable to catch up with her brothers and face the bad guys with them.
Luo Dong just touched little Una's fluffy hair and comforted her.
"You are already very powerful. Don't forget that the violent vibration before was blocked by little Una."
His gaze shifted to the middleman below, staring closely at his every move, and he immediately turned on the walkie-talkie so that he could contact him at any time.
"The rest... I'll leave it to my brothers."
