Chapter 495: Elf Species - Devil's Deal (8200 words) The

sun is scorching.

Under the high temperature of summer, many green plants along the way have turned yellow, and the sound of cicadas is endless.

Looking up at the bright sun, Feng Qi roughly estimated the direction.

After leaving Star City, he has been heading west. Even if he took a detour when he encountered a strong tribe on the way, his current location is probably near the junction of the central and western regions of the human world.

They came here from sunset and walked all night, but they still did not encounter human forces.

This made Feng Qi feel a little strange.

Compared with the situation in the eastern region, there should be front-line supply areas near the densely populated areas of the domain field.

If the front-line battlefield is not opened up, the expansion of the domain field is inevitable.

But all the way, he did not see any human buildings appear, which means that the front line is simply unattended.

In this regard, he can only guess that he is still some distance away from the front line and has not yet reached the real core area of ​​the front line. Now he is just walking in the buffer zone closest to the domain field.

At noon, Feng Qi rested for half an hour and continued his journey with the team.

The further west he went, the more luxuriant the green plants along the way became.

It was night.

The sun disappeared in the horizon and the night enveloped the earth.

The moon was particularly bright at night.

When Feng Qi stepped onto a hillside covered with green grass, the cool night breeze blew on his face, lifting his long black hair. Looking down at the plain below the hillside, he saw a human city covered with green plants.

The city was slightly dilapidated and had completely merged with all kinds of strange green plants.

These green plants grew on the surface of the buildings, with spreading branches stretching towards the sky, spewing crystal green light spots in the night, dotted the city into a sea of ​​stars.

The scene was beautiful, but Feng Qi's expression became solemn.

These green plants were obviously not native plants in the human world, but a kind of domain spiritual plants.

The domain green plants that can survive in the human world prove that these green plants have the characteristics of domain transcendental organisms and can blend with the rules of the human world.

From this perspective alone, the situation of human beings is not optimistic.

There are many special plants that feed on flesh and blood in the field green plants. He clearly remembered that one day in the future dream line, the Star City 1500 years later was also covered by various bloodthirsty green plants.

So this city is very likely to have been occupied by field green plants.

The situation of human beings is not optimistic

. Without hesitation, he immediately jumped down the hillside and walked towards the city covered by green plants on the plain.

Seeing this, Xiaoyou and others immediately followed Fengqi's footsteps.

Fengqi didn't know the origin of the city at the end of his sight, nor did he know its history.

There is no record of this city in history books.

Gradually approaching the city covered by green plants, the things he found along the way made Fengqi's mood gradually become heavy.

There were all kinds of bright green plants along the way. In addition, he saw a lot of dead human remains blended with green plants, and their bodies were almost completely devoured, with only the withered faces still imprinted on the surface of the green plants.

These special existences that blended with human beings and green plants have formed a forest.

This scene is extremely terrifying in the night.

But for Feng Qi, he had seen all kinds of storms and waves, and this kind of scene could not even stir up the slightest ripple in his heart.

But thinking that the humans in this city had been devoured by the domain green plants, his anger was rising.

Finally, he came to the east gate entrance of the city.

The dilapidated walls were covered with purple moss, and the ground inside was blooming with purple flowers, as if it was covered with a carpet of flowers.

Stepping on the purple flowers and entering the city, the scene in front of him surprised Feng Qi.

The city was not as dilapidated as he imagined. There were no ruins everywhere, and there were no scattered gravel on the streets. The road surface was very clean.

Looking around, the domain green plants wrapped around the nearby buildings seemed to be shaking their branches as if breathing.

The crystal powder was floating in the air with the wind, visible to the naked eye.

He took a deep breath, and the crystal green entered his body through his nostrils.

It was like drinking a sip of iced cold drink, a ray of coolness wandered in his body and dissipated.

After testing, he found that the crystal green powder floating in the air was not toxic, but beneficial to the flesh and blood, just like the spiritual particles visible to the naked eye, which can be dissolved in the flesh and blood.

Continuing to walk inside, he saw many humans who were integrated with the green plants in the field again along the way.

They were like real vegetative people. Many of them seemed to have been swallowed by the green plants recently. The small half of their bodies were still human, and their bodies were not rotten, but their expressions were dull and their bodies were stiff. The large half of their bodies had been covered by the field plants and were being swallowed quickly.

Through the things along the way, Feng Qi had expectations that there were still humans in this city, but the situation of humans here was obviously not optimistic.

The deeper you go into the city, the more scenes of humans and green plants can be seen everywhere.

He even saw a wall of a tall building, densely hung with a whole wall of human remains that were integrated with green plants.

They generally had dull expressions, as if they had lost consciousness.

Among some of the humans, he sensed that there were still life fluctuations in their bodies, but he could not wake them up no matter how hard he tried.

During this period, a strange thing happened that puzzled Feng Qi.

When Xiao You flew to a distance of ten meters, those seemingly docile strange plants suddenly became violent and attacked Xiao You.

But as long as Xiao You was by his side, these strange plants would retract and fall into a dormant state.

The situation of Po Jia and others was similar.

Crossing a bridge full of green plants.

When Feng Qi came to the central area in the north of the city, there were many tall buildings, but it was also the area with the most luxuriant green plants.

At the end of the sight, a towering tree was about to rival the sky, hundreds of meters high, and the spread branches and leaves formed an umbrella shape, covering the bottom.

The branches and leaves of the big tree swayed in the wind, casting countless crystal green.

After a brief look, Feng Qi felt the rich vitality in this tree and decided to cut it down.

But just as he was about to do so and approached the big tree, he suddenly felt a weak life wave coming from the left front.

With doubt, he immediately turned his head and walked towards the left front.

Passing the moss-covered building, he saw a skinny old man standing against the wall at the edge of the street. Green hair grew on the surface of his body, and he looked very strange.

The old man also noticed Feng Qi at this time.

He turned his head stiffly and looked at Feng Qi, his eyes full of doubts.

"Human?"

The old man took the initiative to ask in a hoarse voice.

"I am a human, from the Eastern District. What's going on with you now?"

Feng Qi took a step forward, and black energy appeared in the palm of his hand, trying to help the old man wash away the green on his body.

"Don't move, the power of the elves has long been integrated with me, and it can't be removed."

Discovering Feng Qi's purpose, the old man decisively stopped him.

"Elves?"

The old man did not continue the topic. A glimmer of light appeared in his cloudy eyes, and then he asked in a hoarse voice:

"You...are you really a human from the Eastern District? Hasn't it fallen? I heard that the Eastern District has long been a desperate place covered by the domain field."

"It hasn't fallen. I am an expeditionary soldier from the Eastern District. I want to find the humans here and establish contact with them."

The old man seemed to want to smile when he heard it, but his stiff face squeezed out a distorted expression:

"Okay...Okay, the fire of our human race has not yet been extinguished."

"Old man, where is this?"

Facing Feng Qi's question, the old man took a few breaths, and then spoke with difficulty:

"This is the most remote city in the south of the Central District, and it is also the frontline area in the south of the Central District." "

Frontline area? Why didn't I see a frontline soldier along the way?"

The old man's answer made Feng Qi feel incomprehensible. The frontline, as the most important defense barrier, must be heavily guarded.

For example, in the Eastern District where the five major cities are located, every frontline is well-equipped, and the best soldiers are stationed on the frontline.

But along the way, he didn't see a single warrior, only endless field plants.

The old man seemed to see his doubts, and replied with a distorted expression:

"I am a frontline warrior, and those humans who have merged with the green plants you saw along the way... are also frontline warriors."

"Did this place encounter a disaster recently and be swallowed by field plants?"

"No, they are still alive and working hard to protect the front line."

"What?"

"I don't know what path the Eastern District has taken, but this is the growth path chosen by humans in our Central District..."

Listening to the old man's story, Feng Qi gradually understood the situation here.

According to the old man's story.

At the beginning of the catastrophe, the Central District, like the Eastern District where he was born, ushered in a stage of intensive field arrival.

The situation in the Central District was more difficult than that in the Eastern District.

Fields expanded from all directions, and there were still a large number of field fields descending inside.

During that period, the population of the Central District dropped by more than 90%, and fell into a desperate situation.

If the growth of the five major cities in the Eastern District is accompanied by the gradual improvement of the cultivation system, the human combat power began to increase significantly, and some field fields could be dispersed to expand human territory.

But the Central District did not even have the opportunity to conduct research and development.

At that time, the Central District was in chaos. Humans did not have a stable city at all. There were battlefields everywhere and death could come at any time.

During the turbulent years, humans had collective migrations, trying to find areas outside that were not covered by the domain field.

But no matter how they tried, they failed.

Those who left never returned.

The only remaining humans built a brand new small city in the empty space where the domain was divided, lingering on, and civilization was about to collapse.

The situation described by the old man was similar to the speculation given by scholars in the Eastern District.

The terrain environment of the Central District will put the Central District in a desperate situation of being surrounded, and the challenges faced are several levels stronger than those in the Eastern District.

Feng Qi continued to listen to the old man's story.

After the old man finished talking about the desperate situation of humans in the Central District at the beginning of the disaster, he began to talk about the turning point in the fate of humans in the Central District.

The turning point came from the "elves" mentioned by the old man.

This is a magical domain plant with parasitic ability. The domain field they carried when they descended was swallowed up in the war with other races that descended on the Central District.

Fortunately, these plants called elves can adapt to human rules, but like the humans in the central area, they have become wandering forces.

The encounter between the elves and the only remaining human forces in the central area is like a coincidence in fate.

After the Elf King talked with the leader of humans at that time, the Elf King made a promise to humans that they were willing to advance and retreat with humans, but they needed to let their people parasitize on humans.

The advantage is that humans can also gain strength from its people.

This was an irresistible condition for humans who were struggling humbly in despair at the time.

With this, the humans in the central area became the flesh and blood of the elves.

In return, the elves gave humans powerful power.

This wonderful parasitism allowed humans to gain extraordinary power that was unimaginable before the disaster, and also had the strength to fight against domain creatures.

Facts have proved that the Elf King chose humans because of their wisdom.

Perhaps humans are born weak, but human wisdom is not weaker than domain creatures.

In the words of Lao Mi, human creativity is stronger than that of most domain groups. The only disadvantage is that the time of contact with aura is too short.

During the years of alliance with the elves, humans not only mastered the power of the elves, but also developed many new abilities of the elves.

Relying on the power provided by the elves, humans even defeated the domain tribes that had defeated the elves.

Even the Elf King was amazed by the potential of humans, and felt that humans' innovation and research and development capabilities completely made up for the shortcomings of the elves, and regarded humans as allies who would advance and retreat together in the future.

In the years to come, humans relied on the elves to grow rapidly, the population gradually increased, and they also regained many lost homelands.

The growth system of humans in the Central District is also called the Elf Seed.

Planting elves in the body, gaining the power of parasitic elves, and contributing one's own flesh and blood energy to grow together with the elves.

But this growth system also has its shortcomings.

The relationship between the elves planted in the human body and humans is not symbiotic, but parasitic.

One day the seed will break out of the cocoon.

In this growth system, human talent is judged by the time of assimilation.

The stronger the talent of humans, the later they will be assimilated by the Elf Seed.

This judgment is like the strength of bloodline potential in the eyes of humans in the Eastern District.

But compared with the cultivation growth system, the final outcome of the Elf Seed system is to transform into an elf, and the consciousness will also be swallowed by the elf.

According to the old man, when a human is about ten years old, he will go to the center of the main city to receive the ceremony of spirit seed entering his body.

The Elf King will sow the spirit seeds on that day.

Each kind of elf has different powers.

After the spirit seeds enter the body, some people will obtain fire spirit seeds, some will obtain lightning spirit seeds, and even spiritual spirit seeds.

Through these spirit seeds, humans grow very fast.

In terms of the use of abilities, they even surpass the naturally grown spirit seeds.

The food of the spirit seeds is the parasites and the domain creatures killed by the parasites, and the blood and flesh energy are extracted from them.

Relying on this growth system, the humans in the central area have supported themselves to the present.

But this is like signing a contract with the devil.

While they gain power, they will gradually sink until they completely degenerate into elves.

Hearing this, Feng Qi felt bad.

But he also understood that this was the only choice for the humans in the central area in desperate situation.

In the subsequent narration of the old man, Feng Qi also understood the origin of the city under his feet and the dense forest outside the city.

Humans will eventually be assimilated by the elves.

Therefore, before death comes, human warriors will take the train to the front line in advance and go to different front lines.

Become part of the human border area defense line in the central area.

Death is not the end for human warriors.

Before they completely become elves, they will leave their will and turn into a border defense line to resist the "wind and sand", standing there forever, and continue to protect their relatives in the rear in this way.

The city under his feet is actually a burial place for human warriors, and it is also the front line in the old man's mouth.

Along the way, the strange plants he encountered were all human warriors.

Feng Qi suddenly understood why the green plants along the way did not attack him, but attacked Xiaoyou and others ten meters away from him.

Although the human warriors who turned into plants are dead, the will they left behind can identify the enemy.

So they will not attack their own kind.

This is the final destination of human warriors in the central area, except for death in battle, there is no exception.

As the old man spoke, his tone became weak.

The green on his body was spreading, and there was no smile on his stiff face, but his eyes were sparkling with crystal green, and there was warmth flowing:

"Tell me about... the situation of humans

in the Eastern District." In response to the question, Feng Qi told about the situation in the Eastern District.

When the old man heard that the humans in the Eastern District had walked out of their own growth path, he could not hide his envy.

Perhaps he thought of his own situation, and his eyes finally dimmed.

Feng Qi could understand the old man's feelings.

Signing a contract with the devil is a path that humans in the Central District have to take. The old man said that they also thought about changing to other growth systems, but they never succeeded.

Now humans say that they are allies with the elves.

But more of a nutrient on the elves' growth path.

Humans fight for the continuation of the race, but they are also fighting for the elves.

The elves have gained more territory through humans, defeated many domain forces, and allowed the root territory of the Elf King to continue to spread, but humans have not gained a real future except for living.

If one day, the elves grow to a certain level.

When they feel that they no longer need human wisdom, and that humans with low flesh and blood potential no longer meet the growth needs of the elves, the Elf King will obviously abandon humans without hesitation.

This is not a pure transaction, but an alternative slavery.

But, humans have no choice after all.

Knowing the situation of the humans in the Central District, Feng Qi's fists gradually clenched.

Looking at the ancient tree in the distance, the murderous intent in his heart gradually converged.

This ancient tree was transformed from the strongest war god in the history of the humans in the Central District. In essence, it was also a human.

Accompanying the old man and listening to him talk about the situation in the Central District, after a round of sunrise and sunset, the old man's body was finally covered with green, and his stiff face was completely solidified.

Next, Feng Qi decided to go to the center of the city, take the train to the main city, go to the human gathering place in the Central District, and see the Elf King mentioned by the old man again.

Walking towards the center of the city, Feng Qi has always been thinking about a question.

How to liberate the humans in the Central District.

Planting elves in the body has become the only choice for the growth of humans in the Central District, and it is difficult to change.

The cultivation method system is more suitable for the future of mankind.

But the development of the elves has already penetrated every corner of the human society in the Central Region.

Even though they know that this path ultimately has no future, the humans in the Central Region still cannot stop.

At this moment, Lei Ting came to his side, raised his head and said:

"You want to liberate the humans here, but have you ever thought that they may not necessarily accept your ideas? Perhaps they don't need what you think is right?"

Hearing this, Feng Qi was stunned.

In fact, he had thought of this question.

The so-called liberation is just his wishful thinking. Perhaps the people in the Central District have already had many ideas of identifying with the elves. What he thinks is right, the people in the Central District may not think so.

Giving a cultivation method system to change the system of the people in the Central District seems to be a good choice, but there are too many factors involved.

Just like the view before the disaster, whether humans should have guns.

From the perspective of the former Xia country, people think that guns are the seeds of turmoil and should not be owned.

But on the other side of the ocean, there are a large number of loyal believers of guns.

From their own standpoints, each has their own views, but looking at the other side from their own perspective, they will think that the other side has problems.

Although this example does not completely match the situation of the humans in the Central District, there are some common points.

The growth system of the elves has been developed for five hundred years from the beginning of the disaster to now.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it has become a part of the cultural heritage of the people in the Central District.

He cannot stand from the perspective of a savior and judge and criticize that your choice is wrong and you must do what I say.

Instead, he should think about how to change the status quo subtly and let them understand the harm of the elf race's path.

In the communication with the old man, he could hear that some humans also understood that this path was wrong.

They had tried to change the status quo.

But their efforts never paid off,

and they could not find other options. If he was angry at first, he became calm after careful thinking.

He is no longer the passionate boy he was at the beginning, and his way of thinking about problems has changed from the initial "I think" to considering from the perspective of the overall situation.

The perspective of looking at things has changed, and there will be many new discoveries.

He now has a big doubt in his heart.

Has Mu Yu ever come to the Central District, and has she planted seeds here?

If she has been here, why haven't there been historical great men like Ye Huang and the first dean of Scarlet who led the rise of mankind?

Has she never been here?

If she has been here, why didn't she try to bring a new direction to the humans in the Central District at the beginning of the disaster.

He thinks the answer to this question may be found in the main city of humans.

As for how to change the future direction of the human beings in the Central District, he gradually had new ideas on his way to the city center.

Rough changes are obviously unrealistic.

This method seems simple, but it actually involves too much.

Even if it succeeds, it will drag the human beings in the Central District into the abyss.

The development of the cultivation system is not achieved overnight, and cultivation is not a growth model that can gain strong combat power in a short period of time like energy cultivation. It requires day and night efforts to absorb spiritual energy.

If the road is forcibly corrected, the combat power of the human beings in the Central District will drop significantly. Facing the expansion of the domain field in all directions, the pressure will increase dramatically, and it may even lead to the destruction of the human beings in the Central District.

He thinks that perhaps a space channel can be opened.

Let the Star City be connected to the main city of the Central District.

After the city connection is established, the human beings in the Central District will have a brand new choice.

The two cities will also bring about changes in thinking during the exchange.

After comparing the two cultivation systems, which one is stronger and which one is more suitable for humans, the human beings in the Central District can find the answer very intuitively.

This change is like a cultural invasion.

It seems calm, but in fact, the undercurrent is surging. The humans in the central area will gradually abandon the elves and accept the growth path of practicing the exercises.

Compared with the elves' growth system, the exercises practice system has many advantages.

A perfect exercises practice system can prolong the life of humans and make them stronger and stronger, but the elves' system will eventually lead humans to the abyss of death where they are assimilated.

The growth potential is the biggest advantage of the exercises practice system.

One generation is stronger than the next, which is the most precious value of the exercises practice system.

In contrast, although the elves can make the parasites gain powerful strength in the early stage, this kind of growth is deformed and cannot be passed on to the next generation.

The strength of human blood has not changed much at all.

According to the old man's description, the elves planted by humans have become stronger and stronger in the development of more than 500 years.

But this kind of strength is essentially the growth of the strength of the Elf King, so the offspring seeds born have become stronger, which has nothing to do with the physical constitution of humans.

If this balance is broken, when humans are worthless in the eyes of the Elf King, it will be the time for humans to perish.

The thoughts in his mind gradually became clear, and the haze in Feng Qi's heart dissipated.

He had no hatred towards the Elf King. After all, the humans in the Central District were able to preserve the fire, and the Elf King played a key role in a sense.

But if the Elf King was unwilling to compromise and wanted to continue to enslave humans to fight for it,

then he would not hesitate to kill the Elf King.

Human freedom should not be determined by the Elf King, and should not be a tool for the Elf King to grow.

In fact, he had a better choice in his mind.

It was just that this choice that was more suitable for humans required the cooperation of the Elf King.

If the Elf King could be controlled by the humans in the Central District and ensure that he would always be loyal to humans, then the existence of the Elf King would be very meaningful to the Central District.

At that time, the humans in the Central District would not be completely trapped in a dead end after Mu Yu was defeated, and at least there would be a channel to gain abilities.

Before solving the problem of Mu Yu and Mo,

the collapse of the human world led to the collapse of the human growth system, which was an inevitable disaster.

He prepared two paths for the descendants of Star City.

The first was the belief growth system.

Borrowing the innate abilities in his main spiritual sea of ​​consciousness through faith to gain power.

The second was the rune transformation route.

By perfecting the rune transformation plan, humans whose cultivation system collapsed could gain power by embedding rune crystals.

He didn't mind opening up a third path, the elf species growth path.

Especially for the humans in the central area.

Compared with the two paths he chose, it is obvious that the elf species system can allow them to adapt faster.

But the hidden dangers of the elf species system are more serious than rune transformation.

The Elf King cannot be controlled, the body is corroded and assimilated, and so on.

If these potential problems can be solved, the elf species can also become a helper for humans.

Thoughts surged, and countless ideas emerged in his mind.

How to solve this problem, he didn't think about it anymore. Next, he decided to go to the main city of the humans in the central area to learn more about the current situation of the humans in the central area. When he

came to the area covered by the ancient trees, he looked up and saw countless crystal greens floating in the air, lighting up the center of the city.

According to the old man's description, this city is a small border town in the central area.

But it was abandoned for a long time after the disaster and eventually became an uninhabited area.

In the years that followed, humans who rose through the growth system of the elves gradually regained their territory. This small town also returned to the hands of humans and became an important line of defense on the border.

Today, countless human warriors are buried here, and a large number of domain field invasions have been resisted.

Continue to walk towards the central area. The closer you get to the ancient tree, the stronger the elegant fragrance becomes.

Following the guidance of the old man before assimilation, Fengqi came to the bottom of the ancient tree.

Looking up at the crown of the tree, the big tree is like a Dinghai magic needle standing in the center of Chengcheng.

Next, he began to walk around the big tree.

Finally, he saw a green staircase woven by branches and leaves, spiraling upward.

Walking along the upward stairs with Xiaoyou and others, after a long time, they came to the back of the tree, a platform in the central area.

This platform is also woven with vines and can accommodate more than a hundred people standing on it.

Connected to the platform is a track woven with countless vines, which winds to the northwest, which is the main city of the central area.

According to the old man's description, there is a train every day to send dying warriors from the main city here.

The vine track and the train on the track are driven by the energy released by the ancient tree.

You can see green energy flowing in the vine track.

When the warriors in the main city feel that they are about to die, they will take this train and come here to wait for the arrival of death and become one of the guardians of the city border.

Standing on the edge of the platform, he overlooked the city covered with green, thinking about his thoughts.

At this time, Xiaoyou floated in the air and fell asleep, Pojia was silent, Taihang stood at his feet, followed him to overlook the city, and the sound of thunder and negative consciousness bodies fighting could be heard from time to time.

Time passed quickly.

When a red sun rose from the end of the sky, he saw a green "long dragon" falling from the distant clouds and driving quickly along the track.

Soon, the train stopped at the ancient tree platform.

When I got closer, I found that this train was not made of steel, but of green plants.

The bottom of the train is a circular structure, which firmly locks the vine track and extracts the energy needed for operation.

The train is empty. There are no dying warriors sent from the main city on this train.

When the door woven with branches and leaves opened, Feng Qi led Xiao You and others to get on the train.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, the ancient tree behind trembled slightly.

The green dragon started immediately and flew backward along the track to the clouds.

Coming to the window and sitting on the seat woven with vines, Feng Qi stuck his head out and looked back. The city covered by green quickly shrank in his eyes.

The strong wind blew on his cheeks, and Feng Qi sighed in his heart. At the fork in

the road of civilization, the humans in the central area took a different path from the humans in the eastern area and developed a new civilization.

Using the energy provided by green plants as a power source, he really opened his eyes.

This also further proved his guess that the growth path of the elves has become a part of the human civilization in the central area, and it is difficult to give it up.

Turn your sight to the front.

When the green dragon passed through the thick clouds, he saw a rising red sun, releasing thousands of feet of light.

His mood suddenly improved.

Although the situation in the Central Region was not what he had imagined, at least the flame of human civilization in the Central Region was continued.

Next, he would try to change the future of the human race in the Central Region.

Uniting all human forces was his first step to fight against the invasion of the domain, and also his first step to fight against the coming of the great trend.

I will make up for it today.

I will continue to add more tomorrow.
