Chapter 170 Riddler

In fact, it wasn't just Li Lin and his group who came to Heishui collar.

Li Lin has long been aware of this kind of thing.

No matter how secret it is, it is meaningless in front of people.The secrets that Li Lin can access as an undead are often not the kind of absolute confidential documents.He just witnessed those existences with his own eyes.

So Li Lin's existence is not the only one, and he is not the only one who knows the secrets he knows.Although Ross and Li Lin have already realized this point, when they saw the half-human race in the corridor wearing a black robe and engraved with green leaf patterns on their foreheads, Li Lin, an immortal old monster, couldn't help but feel A sigh of regret came out.

The lines inscribed on this forehead were unknown until 2 years ago.Only in the second millennium of No.20, a quasi-sage-level mage changed his state of mind and cognition and gave birth to such a special profession.This kind of organization that alienates itself with inscriptions and nature is now one of the top organizations in the world.Spellcasters who indulge in the path of nature and assimilation call themselves tree shepherds.Of course, others looking at these crazy guys talking to plants prefer to call them riddlers.

There is a riddle that never knows how to communicate with people, but only knows how to communicate with nature.The green inscription on the forehead and the body that have become very close to plants, with their own growth cycle, are their symbols.

"Riddler..."

Looking at the silent humanoid creatures like plants in the corridor, Li Lin looked at the silent black robes and sneered.

The caster who has completely embarked on another path has transformed himself into an existence that has received the breath of nature, and it can even be said to be a biochemical transformation.But these fanatics don't think so, they even think that their form is much more beautiful than ordinary people.Completely immersed in that strange desire, it has become a completely different way of life from living things.

Although Li Lin himself is an undead person, he also feels a little bit of dissatisfaction with these guys who gave up their flesh and blood.He spent 4 years in this world as an undead, but no matter what, he never thought of giving up this flesh and blood body.Those guys who study nature can abandon their bodies at will, so what else in this world can't be abandoned by these woods?Li Lin doubted this very much.

"Are you awakened by the things in the Kingdom of Dreams? Don't you claim that you just need the way of natural balance? Why, facing the prophecy of the black sun and the great dark sky, you can't resist your plant tentacles and started to attack ?”

"You don't have to pretend to be so lame, Pastor Li Lin."

The body of the headed man in black made a 'gra-gra' friction sound, just like the noise made by the interlacing of countless wooden boards.

Not only the sound of rubbing, but also a rotten smell like rotten wood in the nasal cavity.The ears are filled with the sound of some creatures crawling and shuttling.Visually, you can even see the green buds hidden under the black robe.The green lines are more like some kind of lights in the darkness, shrouding the existence under the black robe in an emerald green shadow.Let him be in a state of darkness under the lights, making people unable to figure out what this person looks like.

But it's all the same for Li Lin.The undead priests who have participated in the reversal of these people's formulas know what kind of terrifying bodies are hidden under their hoods.In name it is for nature, but in essence it is just a force between human beings.

"It's very clear between you and me, Li Lin. You walked on the earth in such a form when I was a child. If the undead adult is just such a restless buffoon, I would be too embarrassed." Look down on our ancestors of the way of nature. Without the help of your information, maybe we petitioners would not be able to appear in this world."

The man pulled back his hood, revealing the appearance of the ancient tree that was almost the same inside.There are countless vines and flowers climbing on the palm, and there are small insects and vines sneaking back and forth on the face from time to time.That is not the appearance that a human being should have. It is more like an ancient tree that has lived for thousands of years, but it just happens to look a little like a human being.There were two cloudy yellow gemstone-like things inlaid in the eye sockets, and the scars on the shriveled mouth opened and closed, making sigh-like sounds.

That can no longer be described as ugly, it can only mean that it is a frightening gesture.It was as if a person had been shaped into a terrifying tree trunk, leaving traces of frightening and hateful skin on the brown bark.The vines that replaced blood and the various creatures that replaced tissues formed a small ecological cycle in this monster's body, running without any interference.This small ecological circle is also the basis for him to survive in this black water collar.In this territory where all spells are broken, this group of people can only reach the core area in this way.

But to Li Lin's surprise, these monsters don't seem to be so enthusiastic about the existence of Huaxu's country.I just came here simply following a kind of guidance.The monster tree man in the head had a dead-like expression (although Li Lin couldn't see the change in the tree's face even if he had other expressions), he said lightly.

"Not only our friends of nature, but also the chaotic believers also want to find the clues they want in this dreamland. Many people in the Blackwater Territory have even been lurking for several years, decades. We It’s just to join in the fun.”

"Oh... join in the fun? Chaos believers?"

Hearing this news, a certain pastor frowned fiercely.

Chaos believers should be said to be a group of people who actively abandoned their intelligence as intelligent creatures.These guys abandoned human civilization and turned to the embrace of chaos.He began to give up his own thinking and survive in this world as the embodiment of chaos.

Their actions basically have no meaning at all, they are just opposing for the sake of opposing.Destroying any legacy that can be found, searching for all the wealth of this world and destroying it.Corrupted by the three major curses and the tide of chaos, all he can do is carry out such destructive actions.That's what they exist for, and no other reason.

It's just a group of lunatics who appeared purely to destroy other people's plans, to destroy existence.Even death is not a difficult thing for them. There are many eyewitness records swearing that they really crucified those lunatics, but this group of bastards captured by chaos are still laughing. smiled, and stepped out from the cross.This is not something like a miracle, it is purely a chaotic performance by the demons.

But if it is about the acceptance of Chaos, Li Lin doesn't believe that those Chaos believers can be any better than him, the real undead king.He had lived as long as he himself feared, the longest time since the sages.

So Li Lin smiled coldly, and shook the black cross on his neck at the old tree man provocatively.

"I'm a member of the Holy Light Sect. As the Holy Light Sect, I'm here to arbitrate everything here. In this case, can I let you go? In the Human Council 5000 years ago, the Holy Light Sect was the arbitrator of all things. Or, the balance of truth exists. Then I ask you not to come here to join in the fun, and go back to where you came from, will you be willing?"

"...Even if this kind of unreasonable request is your order, we have no way to accept it." There was no expression on the wrinkled bark face of the old tree man, only the scar-like lips were dry up and down, Li Lin's argument was rejected.

"The Way of Nature does not have to abide by the covenant of the year. When the contract was signed, the Way of Nature did not exist, nor did it sign the treaty at that time. We are exercising our freedom as a free organization in this world. Without our signature, we will not admit it. And you are the only one left in the Holy Light Sect, Pastor Li Lin, but the arbitration team back then needed a judge, two priests, four priests, twelve You have no right to do that."

The old tree man spoke slowly, there was nothing that could be called a soul in his amber-like eyes.It was just a mechanical description of a fact that made Li Lin's face slightly distorted.Although Ci Feng was not a sharp language, it was because of that old and correct posture that the immortal priest's face became even more ugly.

"...I'm not in the mood to argue with you right now, Riddler. I don't want to know what's going on in your stupid minds. You'd better not disturb my plan, and I will respect you accordingly."

Comparing his personal anger with the gains and losses of the whole plan, Li Lin still decisively chose the latter.

With a very ugly face, he warned those wooden heads, and the old pastor turned and walked down the stairs without waiting for the tree shepherds' answer.He would rather face that naive and ridiculous young master than stay with these guys whose brains are stuffed with wood.In that case, sooner or later, worms will be born on him.

"Mr. Li Lin, before I leave, I want to give you a piece of advice." The rotten tree man said calmly behind him.

"The black sun is the symbol of the country of Huaxu. Our ancestors once saw that symbol in a document. It was the last symbol of Chaos, the king of chaos. There is a reason why many sages avoid this place, I hope Do it yourself."
