Chapter 204 The truth of destruction!
That kind of calmness without any excitement and expressionless emotion made Lu Yuan, who was watching, feel a chill rising from the soles of his feet and rising to the top of his head.
Lu Yuan couldn't help but widen his eyes, feeling a genuine fear and dread.
This kind of calmness.
He is too familiar.
It’s so familiar that it makes me feel cold when I think of it.
Hai Luo may have little experience and has not figured out the situation. He subconsciously wanted to comfort her but didn't know how to say it.
In the end, Lu Yuan could only whisper to comfort: "Conch...or don't look at it anymore..."
…
"I want to become a god... I've been thinking about it for many, many years." The high priest said calmly.
"It's very tiring to pretend to be an animal with feelings every day."
"Your race is born with long lifespans and an excess of freedom consciousness, so you don't have much cohesion. I have to think of ways to lead you to survive on Pangu Continent all the time. It's very tiring."
"It's been tiring to accompany you from childhood to where you are now."
"It's really tiring. Do you know how much energy I spent?!"
"It's been five thousand years, and now is the final step."
"I really didn't expect that there would be people who didn't want to enter Green Paradise and wanted to witness everything from outside... It's really impossible to predict everything in the world. That place is a paradise, how can you refuse?"
"But can the fighting power of the two of you still stop me? Come, give me the Soul Stone, and I can let you die without pain."
Such strange words were spoken with such calm indifference that even the conch realized something.
The terrifying atmosphere surrounded her like thick ink.
Now, even when she was just watching the illusion, her brain almost stopped thinking.
She couldn't imagine what kind of pressure her parents had been under.
This is actually a...
【magic】!!
The wise and great high priest who had ruled the civilization for five thousand years and had been throughout the rise of civilization was actually a [demon]! The [demon] had been patient for five thousand years, just wanting to go further and become a [god]! The [demon] wanted to take over the [god]! !
But this process of taking over another's body will take time.
After all, a newly born god is also a [God], and only at the moment of birth does he have a chance to successfully take over another's body.
[Demon] cannot be disturbed by the outside world in order to successfully take over another's body.
Therefore, Hai Luo's parents, the only two living people in the square, became the final thorn in the eyes of the Devil.
If they don't die, the plan won't succeed.
"You can destroy the Soul Gem, but that is your own daughter." The high priest said calmly, "The Poppy Tree contains all the spirits of the Green Civilization and is also of great value."
"Even if I can't become a god, I can still endure until the next era and wait for new opportunities."
"If you hand over the Soul Gem, I can promise to keep the Green Paradise."
"At least, your sense of tribe still exists."
"I can even protect you and allow you to survive until the next era."
The [Devil] only wants to seize the [God]'s body, and the Green Paradise is indeed an insignificant existence to the [Devil].
But for Hailuo's parents, that is the self-consciousness of hundreds of millions of people, an unbearable burden.
Even if they cannot become gods, they want to protect this green paradise.
The high priest opened his hands, smiled and said, "How do you make your choice?"
"You should know that your true fighting power is no match for me!"
"You can't escape!"
"Come on, make the right choice! After all these years together, I don't want to destroy the green civilization. I also... have feelings, don't I?"
No one can answer this question.
Then in the silence, dark clouds in the sky blocked the sun, and heavy rain poured down on the ground.
This is an unimaginable catastrophe in the history of green civilization.
It is also an unbearable burden in the life of the conch's parents.
…
At this moment, Lu Yuan was in extreme shock. He clenched his fists and looked at the man and woman in front of him. He was almost bent over by the huge pressure.
"this……"
The conch was also completely silent, just staring and staring.
She was just a baby at that time.
But it is also the center of the storm.
…
But at this moment!
The variables happened again.
Dee suddenly let out a miserable laugh, then burst into laughter.
"In fact, I have never thought of betraying civilization. I will never, and will never, betray civilization in the past, present, and future."
"But sometimes I would wonder what consequences those outrageous acts would lead to...what if, what if?"
"My husband and I have discussed privately how we can keep our daughter alive."
"Although every method is wrong and ridiculous...but we did think about it, we did think about it!!"
Dee's voice was miserable and firm, and he smiled miserably.
"Do you think you're sure to win?"
"Hui!!" He laughed miserably and shouted loudly.
At this moment, his wife Hui pierced her arm with a very strange knife, and blood spurted out.
She collapsed to the ground.
This small knife, named "Kohler's Space Dagger", can be used to perform a short-distance teleportation at the cost of one's own blood.
The next moment, she teleported through space and came into contact with the huge poppy tree.
Then he took out a very strange thing that looked like a compass.
Her soul was sucked away by the Poppy Tree from a distance - "extracting souls" was originally the Poppy Tree's divine skill, and even the [Devil] could not stop it.
The soul of the conch mother suddenly merged into the poppy tree.
The high priest's expression changed subtly.
This woman actually thought about betraying civilization.
Moreover, as a person with high authority and a high-level warrior, she used her own soul to take over the poppy tree.
…
The poppy tree was trembling, and its branches stretched out, emitting a terrifying murderous intent.
This is a terrifying sight of a [demon] in its prime, capable of rivaling [ghosts].
…
This series of unexpected events was so overwhelming that Lu Yuan was stunned.
Especially the sudden possession of another's body at the end was definitely premeditated and planned, not a spur-of-the-moment decision.
In other words, this couple really wanted to betray civilization...
Of course, they just think about it and don't put it into practice.
But in the end, by some strange coincidence, it was actually used.
“No wonder…”
…
Because of the shocking battle, the illusion ended abruptly here.
Only one male voice echoed in a low and hoarse voice: [That was the most glorious battle in your parents’ lives.]
[Your father, that is, me, was defeated in a brief confrontation. ]
[The power of the demon is indeed beyond the reach of an individual. I use the little power I have left to leave these last words in the Green Paradise.]
[Your mother used the few seconds I bought to forcibly seize the body of the poppy tree.]
[Do you remember those experiments? There was once a powerful soul that wanted to take over the poppy tree. ]
[But these souls will soon mutate, wither, and die. ]
[Your mother still took over the poppy tree, just for a moment of glory. ]
[Thanks to your existence, we have sufficient status and authority. Otherwise, it would be difficult to implement this audacious plan.]
[It thought it had calculated everything, but it couldn't calculate the distance between people's hearts...]
[Your mother went crazy and hit the entire Sky Castle so hard that it was about to collapse with just one blow.]
【Then there was a second strike, and a third strike! 】
[The castle in the sky is collapsing, she destroyed everything... She is right... We shouldn't believe it. ]
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
[I saw the [demon] running away, looking very embarrassed.]
【But it is immortal, and it will come back. 】
[Your mother has completely lost herself and lost control.]
[She took you with her, cut off the trunk of the poppy tree, and fled.]
[I guess she might turn into another monster and fight that terrible opponent forever.]
Lu Yuan's heart skipped a beat and his eyes widened suddenly, realizing what the monster was.
【insect】.
Those bugs in the desert?! For revenge! Revenge! The world was shrouded in dark clouds, in deathly darkness.
Only that extremely weak sound finally reached my ears.
[Child, only when you come back can you hear these last words. ]
[Actually, I don’t want you to come back for revenge.]
[This place is already a dead place.]
[The Green Civilization has perished and no longer exists. Those consciousnesses were also completely destroyed in the battle.]
[But the Green Paradise is still running on the tree roots. Hundreds of millions of people, the obsession of becoming gods still remains here, and the roots of the poppy tree are still here, still able to exert one tenth of its original power.]
[This is not something you can resist. ]
[You don't have to carry a heavy yoke. ]
[Finding a place to enjoy a quiet life is all my father and I hope for. ]
【Determine your own destiny and enjoy the freedom of being yourself. This is what our souls ultimately seek. 】
[Don't worry about us, I must be happy to be able to protect you. 】
The sound gradually faded away and disappeared into the vast and boundless green paradise.
The conch cried.
Sadness spread in my heart, silently, quietly yet surging, flooding my whole body.
The story contains pain and betrayal, as well as the love and blessings of her parents.
Lu Yuan sighed softly. How could he comfort this poor girl? He could do nothing but stare at her.
The other party doesn't even have a body, so even a pat on the head won't work.
He finally understood why he could see so many stories from the past. It turned out that it was all thanks to Conch's father...
Finally, he could only bite the bullet and say, "We have to go. We are a little over time."
【Um……】
The next moment, Lu Yuan's consciousness returned to his body.
He was breathing heavily, and the horrific scene in the illusion was heartbreaking.
Even though he had been through many battles, he had never witnessed such a cruel disaster that destroyed civilization in just an instant.
Hundreds of millions of people died in an instant!
It was just a moment! For a moment, my brain seemed to be stuck and there was a tingling sensation.
Lamenting the fragility of life...
Feeling the hardship of civilization...
From this perspective, [Demons] are indeed a super natural disaster below [Ghosts].
He shook his head heavily.
What should we do next? Even if we figure out the origin of the "Ascension Ceremony" and the reason for the fall of the Green Civilization...
But the disaster in the city center seems to have no solution! He has to deal with this [field]!
Lu Yuan laughed bitterly, picked up a water bottle, and took a big gulp of water down his throat. The lubricant finally filled his rusty brain and it started to work.
"The godhood failed, the poppy tree suffered heavy losses, and all the green people should be dead..."
"But that virtual world still exists. The obsession of hundreds of millions of people to become gods has caused the remaining poppy trees to tirelessly create the illusion of the ascension ceremony."
As long as you don't become a god, this illusion will continue!!
Until the day of its own demise! The peak state of the poppy tree is a terrifying phenomenon [demon] that can compete with [ghosts]! Even if only some tree roots remain now, with one tenth of its power, can Lu Yuan deal with it?
However, if he doesn't deal with it, the entire Shari clan will be destroyed, and his pet chicken snake and old wolf may die.
The Castle in the Sky may not be able to continue for much longer.
"This world is too scary..."
"A [demon]... easily destroyed an entire civilization." The old cat understood what he said, and its two cat's eyes widened.
It originally wanted to say something, something to comfort, but in the end it could only sigh.
It's really impossible to comment on this kind of thing if you're not involved in it.
After a long while, the old cat calmly said, "That is to say, the remaining obsession in the city center sensed the arrival of the conch and activated such a huge field..."
"After all, she is an important part of the ascension ceremony."
"Even though the conch no longer has this ability, those obsessions don't care about that and want to capture her."
"Let's go. Since we can't deal with it, we have no choice but to leave."
"In a few years, when things have calmed down here, maybe we can come back..."
"The Sandi clan, run away, maybe we can save a few."
Lu Yuan smiled bitterly. How many people in Shali could he help to escape to distant places? Then, Lu Yuan was surprised to find that the mysterious [Field·Psychedelic] had disappeared?! He widened his eyes and sensed for a while.
The mental attack really disappeared?! Instead of being surprised, he felt a strong sense of uneasiness.
"What's going on?!"
"Cluck, cluck!" The chicken snake held the basket in its mouth, spread its legs, and ran back in a flash, with a smiling expression on its chicken face.
The reason was that the little chicks in the basket had recovered and were shaking their heads and chirping, like a bunch of furry balls of wool.
"you……"
Lu Yuan’s eyes widened. Even these chickens were resurrected?
Everything began to revive.
The unconscious bird flapped its wings again and started catching insects.
The little rabbit and the little mouse also hurried back to their nests.
The crocodiles and snakes swam back into the grass.
These lively scenes look extremely strange.
Then, Lu Yuan suddenly thought of something.
"conch?!"
