Chapter 108 "Prometheus's Fire."



"Well, you are well-informed." Qiao Zhuang nodded casually: "But what if Si Que is not Si Que?"

"What?"

"No, just pretend I didn't say anything." Qiao raised his hands and smiled.

"Let's go back to what happened just now. You saw that the World Tree used you as a source of energy. Ah, this brings me to another thing. Do you know why the Watchers must stay in this world?"

Su Mingan paused for a moment and said word by word: "Because they are... the heart of the world?"

Qiao smiled calmly and said, "It's just like a person needs a heartbeat to live, and that's the role of the Watcher. It used to be Ijurel, and the backups were Si Que, Su Wenjun, and Qi Zhou... But now, they're all gone, so the World Tree has no choice but to find you."

"Did you do it on purpose?" Su Mingan suddenly said.

"What do you mean by intentional?" Qiao was surprised.

"You did it on purpose." Su Mingan said in a positive tone, "You led me here."

Su Wenjun could obviously burn the books first and make Qi Zhou lose his ability to resist instantly, so why did she pretend to fight with Qi Zhou for a long time until he arrived?

Of course, Su Wenjun couldn't burn all the books, but if he ignored Qi Zhou, he could burn many more books.

"Oh..." Qiao smiled mysteriously: "Guess what we talked about?"

Su Mingan also smiled: "You Luowasha are really talented. You set traps for me to step into. You don't regard me as an ally at all."

He wanted to say "heartless and righteous", but then he thought, the two worlds are in a cooperative relationship, who stipulates that they must love each other. It's just a world game that makes many unrelated people become close friends. Of course, some people in Luowasha are from Zhai Xing, but the vast majority are not.

Qiao did not deny it, but smiled and said, "Aren't we all trying to survive? It's just that saviors like you often like to use emotional statements instead of rational ones to inspire the tragic and heroic spirit of salvation in most people. But in fact, if you have the opportunity, you can take everyone to hide in someone's dream and give up Luo Vasha. I like to speak openly, I hope you don't mind."

"I don't care." Su Ming'an said. He was not angry at the bridge at all, but calmly said: "So, you want to trap me here. You take the Book of the Complete Works and take Luo Vasha to happiness?"

"I am a selfish person, and I really want to do this." Qiao spread his hands: "But the problem is, we have received your kindness. If I really do this, I will be criticized by thousands of people as a person who crosses the river and destroys the bridge. So, I am also in a difficult situation and want to talk to you."

"I have a question." Su Mingan looked around.

"Um?"

"I just tried it. This is the core of the World Tree, where the rules of the world are. All super-standard abilities are ineffective here. So, if I use our old relationship to lure Noel Akinni here..."

Then, he would hand over his Watcher identity to anyone he trusted. That person was equivalent to the new Ijurel, borrowing the advantage of the field and the power of heaven and earth... Players, can you take this opportunity to get rid of your identity and leave?

This plan no longer requires him to sacrifice himself, as someone else will take over his fate.

…He seemed to understand why the bridge appeared here.

"What happened back then, exactly? Did you pass on your witch identity to Si Que at the cost of your own death? Are you dead or alive?" Su Ming'an said.

"Hmm." Qiao said, "I'll leave this final story for Si Que to tell you in person after he wakes up. Time is urgent, so I won't say more."

He waved his right hand and the apricot tree disappeared.

In an instant, branches and leaves swarmed up like hungry blood-sucking worms.

The bridge took the initiative to stretch out its hands.

The branches and leaves found a new target and immediately drilled towards the bridge, greedily sucking the blood from the bridge, no longer paying attention to Su Mingan.

Su Mingan stood aside and watched this scene.

...What a primitive thirst for blood.

Nature is primitive and cruel, and so is the World Tree. It is just a spiritual tree that has the needs of survival, follows the laws of nature, and filters the lens of dramatic memory. Humans are just willingly moved and give it all kinds of praise.

"If I didn't agree to attract Noel Ajinni, I would be the one being sucked blood by the branches and leaves now." Su Mingan said lightly.

Qiao turned pale and squinted his eyes: "The savior is a smart man, why ask some superficial questions. You are great, but I am a rational guy. I hope you don't hate the whole Luowasha because of this. I am just a very selfish person among them."

"Aren't you afraid that I will run away after agreeing to it?" Su Mingan said.

"I'm afraid, but as a small person like me, I can only pray for a promise from a 'big person'. Apart from this, there is no other way, right?" Qiao said with a smile.

He stroked the branches and leaves of the trees around him as if he were stroking a kitten licking milk.

Drops of blood fell to the ground and were greedily licked away by the branches and leaves.

Su Mingan glanced at the anthology book and knew that he couldn't take it away, nor did he need to. He squatted down, cut off a piece of Qi Zhou's cat-ear hat, put it in the compartment of his backpack, and turned to leave.

"I hope you can hold on until the next time I see you."

Although every word Qiao said was about interests, he did not hate such people.

"Don't worry, I have a strong vitality, and the World Tree knows restraint. It's just a greedy kitten..." Qiao's voice floated behind him.

The lake water flows, the branches and leaves sway, and the smell of burning remains in the wind.

Su Mingan took a few steps forward and took out "Siber's Tracking Compass".
