The Ring: Sell Dung Beetles in Junction

Chapter 425 Bai Zhi’s Enlightenment

Doing business in the Holy Tree, Wuming felt a kind of pure happiness, just like in the beginning of Nimgefu, there were not so many complicated overall calculations, no competitors, setting up a stall, and the pace was slow.

The only fast-paced thing was probably when the black cat woke up and scratched him a few times, leaving a few claw marks on his helmet.

But after scratching Wuming, she still stayed on him, lying down very comfortably.

"Why don't you leave me?" Wuming wondered.

"It's cold, so cats like to stay in warm places," Patch said.

"Lean to a warm place..." Wuming pondered, "Isn't that the sun tester?"

Wuming picked up the black cat and pointed at it:

"Yes, you are very discerning. Come and do business with me."

"Teaching cats to do business?" Patch squinted.

"I found that when this cat is here, the business here will be better and the customer flow will be higher." Wuming said, "The Lucky Cat."

During the conversation, Wuming sold a dung beetle dew drop, a Carlia carpet, and a small sculpture.

Wuming said: "But where did this cat come from? I heard that there are cats on the tower of Kallia and there are cats on the branches of the golden tree. Maybe this is the cat of the holy tree?"

"Come from the Lake District," said Patch.

"How is it possible that it can pass through the snow in Huasheng Snowfield?"

"It came with the caravan," Patch said. "An employee in the lake area picked it up and put it in the cargo hold. It came with the cargo."

Wuming touched the cat's head:

"It turned out to be a smuggler. Now I have more reason to ask him to collect tolls. Little guy, please help me attract money and make my trade route smooth. I will give you big fish and meat."

Patch said: "I'm afraid it won't go well. The corruption of the holy tree is spreading. Maybe if we go down a few floors, there will be no human intelligent life."

"Is there other intelligent life?"

"The Corruption Families," Patch said, "The employees found a pool of corruption on the lower floors, and there are bugs living in it. We can't do business there, the merchants can't survive, and there are no customers."

"Marlenia, who is parasitized by corruption..." Wuming touched his chin, suddenly remembering what Mikaela said to him before falling asleep,

"Ah, Michaela wants me to marry his sister."

"Huh?" Patch was shocked by Wuming's sudden words, "Did Michaela say that?"

"That should be the case. I was not very conscious before I fell asleep." Wuming said, "They said that my golden needles can cure Marlenia's corruption. If I marry her, I can get the holy tree or something."

"Political marriage." Patch's first reaction was, "Michaela wants to gain your power."

Wuming nodded: "I also think Michaela's idea is too beautiful. If he wants me to marry his sister, the bride price must be no matter what -"

"Marry, why not marry?" Patch said decisively, "I'm not satisfied with giving you the Holy Tree. Is there any faster way to get the Holy Tree?"

"Ah?" Wuming tilted his head, "What do you want to do?"

"Planning for my good brother's future happiness." Patch laughed.

"Don't think about it, I already have someone in my heart." Wuming stroked his heart.

"Let me guess, the person in your heart is dead, right?" Patch said.

"There was a time when the sea was too difficult for water, do you understand?" Wu Mingmei said seriously, "Even if you die, you will always live in my heart!"

Patch said: "You can keep his place in your heart and do yourself a favor. It's all for Rune."

"Don't, don't, don't, don't." Anonymous shook his head suddenly. "I don't know what Marilynia, and people don't know me. How can I do it like this, what is Mikara said? I won’t accept an arranged marriage! Loretta also said that they are a match made in heaven. Whoever breaks up will die! I can’t – take away someone’s love.”

Patch looked at Wuming speechlessly:

"In order not to marry someone else, I really choked up a lot of good words."

Wuming touched the black cat in his arms:

"What Marlenia? I don't think it's as useful as this cat. At least the cat can help me make money. Oh, loyal cat."

Patch sneered: "Cats eat meat. When you die, they will eat your corpse."

"Even if you die, it's good if your body can make some contribution." Wuming didn't take it seriously. "For existences like ours, being able to die is a blessing, isn't it?"

Patch was at his wits end, looking sad as he thought about how long it would take to capture the sacred tree.

Speaking of Marlenia, Wuming couldn't help but think of Millicent, who had longed for Marlenia:

"By the way, I've been busy with the caravan lately, hasn't Millicent been looking for Marlenia? I feel like I haven't seen her recently."

"Maybe she has already gone down," Patch said. "Millicent has one of the best tolerances for corruption. She should be able to pass directly into the corruption pool."

"Yes, that's her mission, and it's time to fulfill it." Wuming said, "When the mission is completed, the child will be free."

Wuming smiled:

"The junction is still good. People will not die if they complete their mission. There will be a new future and a new beginning."

========

"Disputes will never stop. When old wars end, new ones will begin."

In the round table hall, Bai Zhi sat behind the desk and talked to several of his subordinates.

Several of his subordinates looked at each other, and the eye badges on their bodies also looked at each other, confused.

The subordinate said: "So... we don't take action?"

Just now, Momochi's men came to report that Mikaela's body, which was originally under their surveillance, was taken away by the forces in the royal city.

Judging from the direction of travel, it is likely that Michaela's body will be sent to the Holy Tree.

They judged that an interception was necessary. The subordinate said: "Sir, the strength of the forces at the border has reversed, and there may be a fight. We need to accumulate strength. You need more big runes and more demigod power."

"No need." Bai Zhi refused.

"Are you going to give up the throne?" His subordinates were shocked.

"If you don't hunt Mikaela's big rune, are you giving up the throne?" Baozhi said.

"Others will accumulate more power after obtaining the Big Rune, and it will be easier for them to win the final victory in the battle for the throne of Elden."

Bai Zhi smiled softly:

"From a strength perspective, that's true."

"Can we look at it from another direction?" His subordinates wondered.

Momochi said: "From a fate's perspective, no one will become the King of Elden."

"Destiny..." Sweat dripped from the foreheads of his subordinates. This was not a topic they could understand, nor did Sir Bai Zhi understand it.

Destiny is the domain of old women.

"Boss, I know you often talk to Shuangzhi and you are also an old man, but after all, you are not an old woman who removes her fingers." The subordinate said, "Can you see destiny?"

Bai Zhi said: "Then let me explain it to you in words you can understand - you can't hurt Mikaela, even if you want to intercept him, you can't do it. His power is charm, and nothing can harm him. Previous encounters Such a huge disaster caused the golden tree to undergo tremendous changes, but have you ever seen Michaela suffer any damage?"

The subordinate said: "Michaela has absolute protection in destiny, so there is nothing we can do? Wouldn't that mean just sitting back and watching him win the final victory?"

"Of course there are beings who can deal with him." Momochi said, "Mikayla's power is not without flaws. He can force others to have a good impression of him, but that ability... is passive."

Baizhi was playing with a statue of a royal son of ill omen in his hand: "Michaela's charm is like perfume. He can control the concentration of the perfume on his body, but he cannot control the smell of the person who smells the perfume. Excessive favorability, It is also dangerous for him, as it will make people crave him excessively, and even wish to eat his flesh alive."

"Eating its meat raw?" His subordinates were confused, "Is this love and affection?"

"It doesn't matter what you do, as long as it comes from love, it's enough." Momochi drew a triangle. "Once he loses control, he himself can become a gravitational force in meaning, making everything converge towards him. The basic concept of the Golden Law ——'Return' will be perfectly presented in him."

Bai Zhi said: "Michaela has his own baseline, and with the help of that standard, he can keep everything's favor towards him from getting out of control - his sister."

Bai Zhi pasted a portrait of a red-haired woman wearing a flying wing helmet on her back:

"Marlenia, who has been suffering from corruption since she was a child, and her brother Michaela depend on each other for life. For the sake of her sister, Michaela gave up the Golden Law and created the Pure Gold Law to curb her sister's corruption. The Broken War At the beginning, Queen Malika announced that only two demigods could be left, one god and one king. In addition, all of them were sacrifices. Malenia and Michaela had another layer of relationship. ——In order to prevent their close relatives from becoming sacrifices, they can only be each other's partners. One god and one king occupy the only ecological niche of two demigods."

Baizhi held his chin with both hands, his eyes reflecting:

"At the same time, they are brothers and sisters who depended on each other in the past, saviors who stay together now, and eternal partners and husbands in the future. Malenia's attachment and affection for Mikaela should be the highest. This kind of affection meets Mikaela's With the charming aura, Marlenia's love for her brother will be controlled on the verge of losing control. And all other things will bow down under Mikaela's knees. He is already loved by others, even if they don't love him, they will I won’t feel bad and won’t hurt him.”

Baizhi rubbed the statue of the Bad Omen Young Son:

"If at this time, there is a being who loves him more than Marlenia, he will cross that dangerous boundary, lose his mind, go completely crazy, and make transgressive actions."

"Blood King?" said his subordinates, "Why does Blood King love him more than his sister?"

"Maybe it's just that he has a 'sensitive sense of smell'." Bai Zhi said, "Through Mikaela's experience, have you felt it? That invincible power is its essence."

The subordinate hesitated and asked: "Destiny?"

"Yes, fate." Momochi said, "In other words, it is cause and effect. The basic concept of the Golden Law - the cause and effect of regression and cause and effect. Queen Malika has knitted everything. The strongest demigod Latarn has There is no way to resist corruption, and in order to compete with Latarn and for her brother, Malenia will definitely release the corruption to hurt both sides. Invincible like Mikaela, there is also Monger to deal with him. And Monger himself is vindictive by Mikaela Charming to the point of being irrational. Larcade and the serpent are locked in each other's tail, and there will never be peace. Although Menggert won, he felt ashamed of the bad omen and refused to become king, watching his beloved world forever in war..."

"What a mess..." his men muttered.

"Yes, it's a mess." Momochi said, "Although Queen Malika said she wanted only two of the demigods to fight each other. But in fact, her real purpose is to make this battle never end. Let the demigods be trapped in this eternal cycle of pain forever. This is the curse of Queen Malika."

Bai Zhi couldn't help but feel horrified:

"Return and cause and effect govern fate and eternal cycle. Now this power acts on people, locking the struggle and never ending."

The subordinate said: "But that's not right, there are also faded ones. You are the faded one. You are blessed and guided to hunt these demigods."

Another subordinate added: "And the demigods are not in pain now. Almost all the demigods we have are out of trouble."

"The Faded Ones should indeed be the ones to break the situation. There is still a weak point in this mess, and there is a thread - Greg. As long as the Faded Ones seize the opportunity and slowly accumulate strength, they can hunt down one big rune after another. Eventually this balance will be broken." Baizhi said,

"So - a nameless person suddenly appeared at the junction. The demigods did recover, but the number of big runes controlled by the faded ones also decreased. Even if there was such a huge change, the situation did not get better, it just went back to the past. . With the dislocation in strength and status between Gold and Moon, a new battle will surely begin again."

Baizhi said: "Why did I not take action when the epileptic fire was raging, because I knew that epileptic fire could not achieve anything. The purpose of epileptic fire is to stop the pain and strife, which is contrary to Queen Malika's wish, so epileptic fire is doomed to fail. .”

Baizhi looked like a teacher who had finally finished his lecture and sat behind his desk with satisfaction:

"Now you know, Queen Malika's curse, and the fate of the junction."

The subordinate hesitated for a moment:

"So what you're saying is that whether we participate or not, there will continue to be fighting in the Borderlands and no one will ascend the Elden throne. So what we have to do is-"

"It's messed up, that's right." Bai Zhi changed into a comfortable position, "It's enough to lie down flat. Who, please put a piece of fur on the chair for me."

"Let's... go look for it." His subordinates said goodbye and left the round table hall.

The subordinates discussed with each other:

"Where is there a lot of fur? Nimgefu?"

"Are you really going to look for him?"

"Otherwise? What do you want to do?"

One of his subordinates snorted:

"When Colin left, he said that Gideon no longer looked like a leader of the round table. Now it seems that what the prophet said is indeed true."

The subordinate raised his head:

"Gideon doesn't seek advancement, and we don't need to follow a 'Round Table Leader' who has no future. We have already obtained Mikaela's information and can capture the Great Rune ourselves. If we obtain the Great Rune, we will have it." The ticket—the ticket to Elden’s throne.”

"But Jazz also said that we can't hurt Mikaela. I'm afraid she has already switched sides before we even get close." Some of his subordinates were worried.

"Momochi is not the only one who has glimpsed fate." The subordinate said, "As smart as Mikaela, can't he see through the world? A perfect god has ended up like this. If Mikaela is unable to change, wouldn't he seek death himself? Want a change? This is our chance."

The subordinate encouraged others:

"We are going to do big things, big things!"

The badges on the eyes were wiped away, and these assassins and eyes and ears, who were originally hidden in the shadows, gathered in the Holy Snowfield, preparing to intercept Menggert's convoy and intercept the two night cavalry.
