The Tale of Hero Alice's Social Death

Fortunately, the Burning Star is a forbidden spell, and all the flames produced are composed of Alice's magic power. All Alice has absolute control over these flames-seeing this guy set his head on fire, Alice With a quick wave of his hand, all the flames on his head were scattered, so that his life was not injured.

But even so, the head of the tree-human race is obviously smaller, and the outside is full of scorched black marks-it is also fortunate that the body structure of the tree-human race is actually all wood, and there are no organs or the like, otherwise the head would be destroyed. When the burning star is ignited, even if it is only for a moment, the average person would probably have melted their skulls and would have died a long time ago.

"Thank you... thank you."

After the flames on the head of the tree-human race were dissipated, she still didn't forget to say thank you to Alice, which made Alice feel that she could sell him a pair of abductees now - but that's okay, this guy My brain is not working very well, and it is much easier for Alice to ask questions.

Of course, Alice also noticed that this guy's brain is so stupid, probably because he is still young. Compared with those tree people sitting in a daze in the settlement, this little tree person is obviously much smaller in size, it should be The smallest of all treants.

If those tree people are almost as tall as trees, then this tree person is only about the height of an ordinary adult, which is why Alice confirmed at a glance that this tree person was the latest young tree person, and found he.

Because the tree people have lived in their own territory for a long time and have no contact with the outside world, even if this little tree person has lived for decades, his mind is probably not very mature, and it is much easier to deceive than those big tree people outside—— So later, in order to prevent this guy from telling those big trees about Alice, she still had to clear the little tree's memory after asking.

Alice can't tell the big tree people about her abduction of the tree people for the insignificant "friendship" of the little tree people. Alice can still distinguish the priorities.

"Since you thank me, don't just answer with words, it's better to give me some practical thanks."

Although it's not very good to deceive the little tree man like this, it's just some information-although the little tree man's head was burned off a little, but with the resilience of the tree people, it must not take long for it to return to normal.

"A practical thank you..."

The little tree man subconsciously wanted to reach out and touch his body, probably because he wanted to see what kind of practical gift he could give to Alice—fortunately, Alice found out in time, and quickly moved his hand with his thoughts. Fix it to death, or this guy will have to burn his own hands again.

Probably also noticed that his behavior just now was very stupid, and the wrinkled "five senses" on the tree man's face made a very embarrassing expression:

"That... I don't have anything to thank you for."

"Then tell me something about what happened here recently, any abnormal situation is fine."

Alice breathed a sigh of relief, and finally got to the point. The behavior of the little tree man really made her a little speechless, so she hurriedly explained her purpose directly, lest the little tree man make some unexpected actions again, "You can tell me about the polluted air in the forest, or something different from usual, and it will be a thank you."

"What happened recently..."

The little tree man pondered for a while, and then slowly said, "Apart from the fact that the air has become worse recently, there is probably only one special thing - about three months ago, a strange human entered the here."

"Strange human?"

Alice raised her eyebrows when she heard the words—three months ago, that seemed to coincide with the time when "Shadow of the Demon King" was stolen. Maybe the human who sneaked in here was the mastermind behind the theft of the book. "Does that human have any characteristics? Or, what did he do here?"

"The characteristics... can't be described. In our opinion, human beings all look similar."

The tree man replied with some embarrassment——Alice thought it was normal. Although the tree man also had the word "human", they were essentially two different species from humans. They just had similar wisdom. Just as humans cannot recognize the differences in the appearance of other animals, the tree-humans naturally cannot understand the differences in the appearance of humans.

However, although the appearance is difficult to distinguish, but in terms of body shape, this little tree man can probably tell:

"If you have to say it, that person is much taller than you, a little thin, and his expression doesn't seem very good..."

This range is too large, and based on this alone, Alice can't identify any target at all-this little tree man can't even recognize whether the other person is a man or a woman, just like it is difficult for Alice to identify these dry trees. The tree people are the same gender, very helpless.

"So, what did that human do here?"

Since the identity of that person cannot be determined, Alice can only focus on another matter first - if this human being is the culprit of the pollution in the center of this forest, then maybe Alice can take this opportunity to , to find out that source of pollution.

This source of pollution is likely to be similar to the source of pollution in the Demon Realm. It is a very important clue, and Alice cannot let it go.

Chapter 360

After getting the information she wanted from the little tree man, Alice erased all the memories of what happened to him just now, and then put it back—as for the little tree man's head that seemed to be burned off , it is estimated that these tree people will be confused for a while, after all, this little tree person will not remember what he encountered.

According to the place described by the little tree man, Alice quickly found the location where the human who came here three months ago was haunted—it was the most central place in the Kalu Forest, near a towering giant tree. , this tree towers into the sky, and is the tallest tree in the entire forest.

The tree people have a strange sense of belonging to this giant tree with a long history and a huge body, so when they found humans haunting the vicinity three months ago, they carried out a large-scale search here very nervously , trying to find that human, or confirm what that human did here.

However, it took about half a month, and the tree people did not find the human being in the end, nor did they find anything left by the human being here, or any traces of destruction and transformation, so the tree people put this matter Buried in the bottom of my heart, I didn't bother with it for the time being.

Reminiscent of the theft of the forbidden spell of "Shadow of the Demon King" a few months ago, coupled with the abnormal pollution in this forest now, Alice has reason to suspect that it is the human who left something here that caused the The pollution of this forest began to spread.

Although it is only in the middle of the forest for the time being, the settlement of the tree people has been polluted, but as time goes by, I am afraid that this pollution will spread to farther places. Alice can't allow the human world to change. It must be full of polluted air and magic like the Demon Realm.

Although this can also eliminate the reason for war between humans and demons, it will make the living environment of the entire world extremely bad. What Alice wants is to improve the environment of the demons, not pollute the human world— —Finding out the source of pollution in this forest may also make it easier for her to solve the pollution problem in the Demon Realm.

Alice knows that Lacey and Christine are currently researching how to purify the pollution in the Demon World. If they can get a similar pollution source for Lacey, an alchemist, to study, they may be able to research some results soon. Come.

"However, those treant tribes checked for half a month, but found nothing. It seems that that person hid the source of pollution very deeply—and maybe the source of pollution is not an entity, but something like a magic circle."

Alice looked around this huge tree for a while, but she didn't see anything unusual—even the treants who are very sensitive to natural breaths didn't notice anything unusual about this tree, and Alice was even more She couldn't see it anymore, so she didn't think about finding the source of pollution by feeling.

"I hope this trick can work. Anyway, I have used this trick a lot recently, and my proficiency should have improved, and I should be able to do more detailed operations."

Finding a suitable position, Alice closed her eyes slightly, and then activated the forbidden spell "Exceeding Thought Power" that she had learned from Christine—in an instant, the subtle power of thought spread out around Alice's body. Come, infiltrate the air and magic around you.

Under the infiltration of the mind power of the mind power transcendence technique, the pollution in the air and magic power in this area cannot be hidden in Alice's induction, and, as Alice gradually expands the range of mind power, the pollution of these pollution sources There is also a very clear distinction in the degree of density.

The pollution range of the entire Demon Realm is too large. Even if Alice uses the Psychic Transcendence Technique to infiltrate the Demon Realm, it is estimated that it will be difficult to detect the density of the pollution. However, in this space where the pollution range is not large, this kind of pollution The depth becomes so obvious that Alice can observe it.

Generally speaking, since there is a pollution source, the closer the place is to the pollution source, the more serious the pollution will be. Therefore, Alice only needs to move towards the most polluted place according to the degree of pollution she feels. The location of the pollution source can be found.

Although the expansion of the range of thought power made Alice feel a little uncomfortable, but it was probably because of the frequent use of thought power recently that Alice felt that it was still within the acceptable range, so while testing with thought power It's not impossible to search for the surrounding pollution.

But soon, Alice discovered that the location of the pollution source didn't seem to be what she thought, it was buried under the tree or hidden in the trunk - because she noticed that the most polluted area was actually in the In mid-air, the closer to the ground, the less pollution.

In other words, the other party probably hid the source of pollution on it, for example, on the crown of this towering giant tree. In this way, it will be more difficult to find the source of pollution, because generally speaking, if there are no special circumstances, No one would go to the top of this giant tree to check it out.

If Alice hadn't checked the density of the pollution through the transcendence technique, she wouldn't have thought that the source of the pollution was hidden above her head—but now that she realized this, it would be much easier to find the source of the pollution .

Flying is not difficult for the mages in this world. Whether it is wind-attributed magic or mind power cultivated to a high level, it can produce an effect similar to flying, but it is different from flying boats. It does not allow people to fly continuously for a long time.

However, there was no problem with the short flight. With the help of her mind, Alice threw her body upwards, performed several jumps in the air, and soon came to the crown of this giant tree—— Compared with the height of the tree of nature in the forest of elves, this tree is still a bit short.

Stepping on the thick branch of this tree, Alice conducted a detailed search on it again, and finally located the source of pollution on a branch.

This branch looks no different from other branches. Although it is smaller than most of the branches of this tree, there are not no branches smaller than it, so it looks very mediocre and normal-but in Under the perception of Alice's mind power transcendence technique, this branch is very extraordinary.

Around this branch, the air pollution is very serious, so severe that Alice will feel very uncomfortable just by approaching it. According to the perception of the transcendence technique, the pollution around this branch is also very terrifying, so If Alice guessed correctly, this branch should be the source of pollution.

The person who sneaked in here used some method to change the source of pollution into the shape of a branch and implanted it into this tree, or implanted some magic into this branch—in short, the source of pollution That's right.

"I want to see what you are."

Alice squinted her eyes, endured the discomfort caused by the pollution, stretched out her hands and grabbed the branch that was about two or three fingers thick, and then snapped it hard, breaking the branch off.

Chapter 360 How does the real devil make props

Although the branch was indeed naturally attached to the tree by a special method, it did not seem to have any reinforcement or protection measures. Alice broke the branch very easily. The only trigger point The countermeasure is a small current, and Alice ignores it with her physique.

Probably that person also knows that this is the territory of the tree people, and other races including humans cannot approach at will, so he didn't take too many protective measures for this branch, but added a simple counterattack ability, In case it is taken away by something like a bird.

"It doesn't look like anything special, and it swings like a normal branch."

Alice held the branch with her left hand and waved it around, feeling like a little girl picking up branches in the countryside for fun - if it wasn't for the obvious pollution felt by the left hand holding the branch, Alice would have doubted Have you found the wrong source of pollution?

You know, Alice's current physique is not weak. The body made by God has the talent of a brave man. In terms of magic and physique, it goes hand in hand, regardless of level. Although Alice looks like a child, her physical strength may Already able to wrestle with a top human being like Catherine.

But even so, the pollution of this branch can still make Alice's left hand feel obvious discomfort, and even the magic power in the left hand has become very difficult to operate, which is enough to show the pollution ability of this branch to the surrounding area How strong.

After testing the branch's ability with her left hand, Alice transferred it to her right hand—she just wanted to test the branch's pollution ability with her left hand just now, but now she uses her right hand to see through the branch. true colors.

[Weapon: Incomplete Demon King Power - Pollution Roulette]

【Quality: Rules】

[Effect: Strength +5000, Constitution +7000, Speed ​​+5000, Spirit +7000, Control +5000, Magic +7000]

[Additional abilities: Forbidden Pollution (passive skill, you will not be affected by any spiritual attacks and curses, curses with mental power lower than yours will be countered to the caster); Immortal Blood (passive skill, use the devil's Blood infestation and got the breath of the devil); Pretender (active skill, by devouring an object, allowing the user or the weapon to freely transform into the size and shape of the devoured object); Rule Breaker-Magic (passive Skills, continuously releasing pollution that destroys the rules of magic power)]

Good guy, although Alice has long thought that this thing might not be a mortal thing, but never thought that this thing is actually a rule-level prop, and judging from the name, it seems to be the incomplete power of the devil, and "wrong" The "short" weapons are the same.

But obviously, the devil who built this weapon is much more reliable than Andusia and the glasses girl. At least the name of the weapon made by this guy is very normal, so normal that Alice doubts this weapon. Is the original owner of the demon king?

If Andusia were to see this weapon, she would be ashamed to death—Alice could not wait to let Andusia see how other people's demon kings made weapons. The power of the demon king makes props, while others are obviously much more serious.

At the same time, Alice also knew why this weapon looks like a branch. Among the skills of this weapon, there is a skill called "Pretender", which can camouflage the user or the prop itself at will. ——But in order to pretend to be something, you have to devour something.

The person who sneaked here should have swallowed a branch with this weapon, so this prop can become the appearance of that branch, so lifelike, there is no flaw at all.

Maybe Alice can feed her magic armor to it later?In this way, Alice can directly use the "pretender" skill of this weapon to become a muscular man in the future, and it will be much more convenient to act in other postures in the future, and there is no need to wear the closed and unsightly weapon. Convenient magic power armor.

But for now, Alice is not ready to put this idea into practice immediately - because the skill "rule breaker-magic power" of this item is obviously the culprit that caused the pollution in this area, and this skill is not an active skill. It is a passive skill that continues to take effect. If this skill is not removed, it is impossible for Alice to bring this item with her.

"But I didn't expect it. The essence of this 'pollution' is not just pollution, but the destruction of the entire 'magic power rule'... This is quite in line with the characteristics of the power of the devil, the white-haired loli said , the power of the Demon King is the malice born to break the rules."

Alice had always felt that this pollution should be similar to poisonous gas in essence, but this kind of poisonous gas would damage the magic power if mixed with the air, and it penetrated very deeply, so it was difficult to eradicate... But it didn't What comes to mind is that the essence of this pollution is actually breaking the rules of magic, and the discomfort of the air is just a negligible side effect.

No wonder I felt very uncomfortable holding this branch with my left hand just now. The magic power is not running smoothly. It turns out that the rules of magic power have been disturbed-and the demon organs evolved by the demons in the demon world are probably used to Make up for the normal parts with the incomplete magic power.

If the magic power of the human world is a normal file that can be read directly, then the magic power of the demon world is now like a fragmented file, and the organ of the demon race is a file processor that can integrate these broken files , become a normal file, and then read it.

But now that Alice realizes the nature of this pollution, she understands it - if the "pollution" of the demon world is not removed, one day, the rule of "magic power" will be completely destroyed, and then the demon world will be completely destroyed. Without the concept of "magic power", it is not something that can be handled by the evolution of some organs.

"At least now I know what the essence of this 'pollution' is—that is to say, there should be something similar to this 'pollution roulette' in the Demon Realm, which was hidden in a certain place in the Demon Realm by someone tens of thousands of years ago." It caused the demon world to become what it is now."

Alice frowned, "This guy...couldn't be the original Demon King?"

The more Alice thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible. The power of the Demon King chose the first Demon King. This Demon King also hated humans and wanted to destroy the world. But obviously, at that time, the Demon World and the Human World There is no direct conflict, and there is almost no difference between the two races except for the area they live in.

It may not even be called two races, but both are called humans.

So at that time, the target that the first demon king hated may not only be humans in the human world. The "demon race" in the demon world was no different from humans at that time, and should be one of his hated objects, so he created a monster that can pollute the human world. The props from half the world have polluted the demon world.

From that moment on, due to the deterioration of the environment, the demon world began to have a growing sense of aggression against the territory of the human world. The first demon king took advantage of the situation and led the humans in the demon world to launch an attack on the humans in the human world, detonating the war in this world.

Afterwards, the first generation of demon kings was sealed by the first generation of brave men, and the "humans" in the demon world had to accept the fact of failure, continue to live in the demon world, and gradually began to evolve organs that humans in the human world did not have—they obeyed the name of the first generation of demon kings He called the place he lived in "Demon Realm" and his race "Demon Race". The largest race in the world split into two worlds.

——Of course, this is all Alice's guess. There are very few records about the first generation of demon kings and first generation heroes because of the age. So this guess is still possible.

"In short, let's take a look at what this 'pollution roulette' looks like."

Alice sighed, now holding the branch in her right hand, she has absolute control over this "pollution roulette", so not only will she not be affected by the pollution of this "rule breaker-magic power", but she can also Unlocks its active skill "Pretender".

As long as this skill is unlocked, you can see the original appearance of this "pollution roulette".

Chapter 360 The Fame of the Brave I'm afraid...

"I am back."

The little tree man released by Alice, after staying in place for a while, quickly left from the lake, returned to the tree people's gathering place, and opened his mouth to express his sense of existence, letting these tree people know that he He didn't stumble into the river and get drowned.

The tree people have long been used to this situation, so they don't care much, they just turned their heads and glanced at the little tree man who came back—but this glance shocked the other tree people, because they all noticed it. , the little tree man who came back from drinking water, his head has obvious burnt black marks.

It is not a thunderstorm now, and the center of Kalu Forest is not too hot because of the luxuriant leaves, so it is logically impossible for flames to appear, so the scorched marks on the head of this little treant are very abrupt. The tree people suddenly tensed up, and they stepped forward one after another, surrounding the little tree people.

"What happened to your head?"
