The Tale of Hero Alice's Social Death

The one who spoke was the oldest of all the treants. Compared to other treants, he was thousands of years old and he was still calm. Looking at the burnt marks on the little treant's head, he spoke in a low voice. The voice asked, "Just now you went to drink water, what happened? Why does your head seem to be burned?"

"I can't remember, I just remember that I was drinking water by the lake, and I was about to leave after drinking, and then I lost consciousness."

The little tree man was also a little depressed. After Alice cleared his memory for a while, he raised his hand and touched his wooden head, which had become smaller, and said, "When I came to my senses, my head already looked like this. , so I hurried back."

"Elder, could it be related to the humans who came here a few months ago?"

An old tree man turned his head to look at the oldest tree man—although there are not many tree people, they still treat the oldest tree man as an elder according to their seniority, " After that human came, the air and magic power here seemed to be polluted, maybe that guy had some evil plot against the tree man..."

The elder of the Treant tribe pondered for a while. Although the "features" of the Treant tribe were only the folds on the bark on the face, it was obvious how tangled his expression was at the moment—obviously, what the Treant tribe said was true. It seemed to be true, maybe someone really had some plot against the tree people, but he really couldn't think of anything that the tree people had to plot.

If I had to say it, it was probably the living wood, but the role of the living wood was actually not very useful, except that the tree people needed to use it to cultivate more talented tree people's offspring, probably the most important function was to host the soul.

However, there are too many props that can host the soul. Although the living wood is excellent among these props, it is not the absolute first choice. There are many props that are more useful than the living wood in terms of actual functions.

Even in terms of the difficulty of obtaining it, the difficulty of obtaining the Living Wood from the Treants is much higher than the difficulty of obtaining other props that can host souls. It is hard for him to imagine that someone would rather spend time and energy on the Treants On the living wood, they are also unwilling to think of ways to find those soul items that are easier to obtain.

Just when the elders of the tree people were entangled in what the other party's purpose was, a figure came out from the woods not far away - the other party did not hide the footsteps, so the tree people who are very sensitive to the surrounding environment noticed it instantly The breath of the visitor, and they all looked in the direction of the visitor.

The person who came was a muscular man, and just from the hulking figure, one could tell that the other person's body must possess terrifying power—but compared to his exaggerated body, the other person's face looked very Delicate, delicate to the point where it can almost be considered a woman.

Of course, for the tree people, human beings are actually similar in appearance, but the exaggerated figure made the tree people realize that they are not easy to mess with. Therefore, although they have never had a good impression of humans, the tree people did not immediately respond to this fact. The surrounding humans scolded.

"Who are you? Why did you appear in the territory of the tree people? Didn't the human guards outside tell you that humans are not allowed to enter here?"

The elder of the tree people stepped forward and looked at the strong man with an ugly expression - because the civilization of the tree people was too primitive, they naturally had no chance to touch the magic net, and they seldom even read books. Naturally, there is no understanding of the handsome image, "Or...you are the one who hurt Adams?"

Adams should be referring to the little tree man, but obviously, after hearing what the tree man elder said, the little tree man glanced at the muscular man, but showed a confused expression on his face—don't say anything. His memory of this period of time was erased, and even if he hadn't been erased, he wouldn't be able to recognize this muscular man.

It has been a few months since the last time I put on this set of magic power armor in the forest of elves. Alice, who was disguised as a strong man and brave again, suppressed her voice with magic power, and responded in a loud voice:

"Don't worry, I have no malice towards the tree people, and I was not the one who hurt this little tree man—in fact, this guy just triggered the mechanism left by a person who entered here a few months ago, so was mistakenly wounded."

Of course, Alice took this blame on the guy who set up the pollution roulette. Anyway, this damage is not even a minor injury to the Treants, and it will not affect their actions at all, but admits If it comes down, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among the tree people, so Alice still throws the blame out.

"The organ left by the person who entered here a few months ago?"

The tree-human elder was stunned when he heard the words, "You mean, do you know what that human did after entering here a few months ago?"

"Yes, in fact, I came here for this matter."

Hearing that the elder of the tree people took the initiative to throw the topic over, Alice naturally continued to talk along the topic, "Recently, you must have noticed that the air and magic power in this area have been affected. The obvious pollution should be aware of the tree people who have always been very dependent on nature, right?"

"That's right, recently we do feel that the air and magic power here are polluted, which makes our absorption efficiency of natural magic power much lower, which leads to more or less problems in our physical condition."

The tree-human elder nodded, and looked at Alice's false image, "But how can we be sure that you are not directing and acting yourself? Maybe you created these pollutions, and then you want to get more from our tree-humans. something unknown."

Very sharp, this guy...

Alice nodded. After all, she is a long-lived species that has lived for so long. It would be unreasonable if she didn't even have this bit of vigilance—but Alice also wanted to deal with it a long time ago. She directly relied on the big hands of the magic power armor, Grabbing the hilt of the long sword on his back, he pulled it out.

In the center of the hand armor of the magic power armor, a gap was opened, allowing Alice's hand to touch the hilt—in an instant, the long sword pulled out from behind burst into intense light, and the terrifying light-attributed magic power burst out. Instantly filled the area.

On the long sword, the mysterious god's magic pattern is impressively visible. Although the tree people don't know much about the knowledge of the new era, they obviously still know about this sword of the brave that has been passed down for tens of thousands of years.

"So that's how it is...you are a brave man."

The expression of the tree-human elder changed slightly. Although he didn't have a good impression of human beings, and naturally he didn't have much respect for the brave, but he knew that the person who could be chosen by the gods as a brave person must be a person with a noble soul and would not play with himself. Such a dirty routine.

This is not trust in human beings, but trust in the gods and the legends accumulated by the brave men of all ages—Even if the tree-human elders don’t like human beings, they have to admit that if the other party is a brave man, they probably won’t use it. Dirty tricks to cheat yourself.

Chapter 360 Isn’t it normal for a brave man to be rewarded for doing tasks?

"Is the thing that caused the pollution you said here?"

In the name of the brave, Alice brought the treants to the place where she found the pollution roulette—that is, under the tallest giant tree in the middle of the forest, and told the treants that pollution occurred in the center of the forest. The source of all is right here in this tree.

Although the tree people will not sell Alice's face because of the status of the brave, but for a person with a noble soul appointed by the gods, the tree people are still willing to believe her words, but they looked around the tree for a while, It also didn't seem to see anything wrong with the tree.

Treants are more sensitive to natural products than elves, especially plants. To Treants, they are almost indistinguishable from the same kind, so they can clearly feel the situation of this tree—except for the obvious reason of air and magic power. pollution, it seems a bit lacking in vitality, and it seems that there are no other problems.

Alice obviously knew that they couldn't see anything wrong, so she walked up to the giant tree, and then patted the tree's trunk—the phase separation technique attached to the prop was lifted by Alice. Only then did the tree people sense a sense of disobedience.

On the thick trunk of this giant tree, there is actually an exaggeratedly flexible collar-the original size of the collar is obviously not enough to bind the trunk of this huge tree, but the flexibility of this collar It was very exaggerated, stretched directly to an astonishing level, and then tied up this giant tree.

That's right, this collar is the "pollution roulette" - Alice originally thought that the props made by the power of the devil had a seemingly normal name, and the shape may be relatively normal. Who knew that after disabling the "Pretender" skill After that, what appeared in Alice's hands was still a difficult thing to show off.

The collar seems to be a collar for pets, and there are some love patterns engraved on the collar. It doesn't look like it is for pets, but it is more like something to increase the relationship between husband and wife... This thing Although it is much better than the "wrong" and "short" styles, it probably won't be able to show it to people.

However, Alice tried this prop and found that the collar is very flexible and can be stretched very long, so Alice tentatively put the collar on the trunk of this giant tree, but she did not expect it to be possible. arrive.

So Alice took advantage of the situation and applied a "phase separation technique" to this "pollution roulette", turning its concept into a "tree"-this is why these treant races didn't notice the strangeness for a long time, because in their In the original perception, this thing that is put on the trunk is a part of the "tree".

Of course, they didn't think there was anything wrong with the concept of "tree". It wasn't until Alice lifted the phase separation technique that these tree people finally realized that there was actually a black belt tied to this tree, and they were completely He turned a blind eye, as if he regarded the strap tied to the tree as a part of the tree.

"...I didn't expect that the source of the pollution in the forest center was right in front of our eyes, and we didn't notice it at all. I don't know what kind of magic that person used to make us ignore this thing."

The face of the elder of the Treant tribe became even more wrinkled because of anger. Of course, he would not think that it was Alice's fault, but very consciously threw the blame on the human who sneaked in here three months ago—but It is true that Alice did not bring the pollution roulette, so it is indeed not Alice's turn to take the blame.

She just put the pollution roulette on the bright side, so that the treants could see it more easily, and by the way, took advantage of the opportunity to decontaminate the roulette, and asked the treants for a piece of living wood.

If this thing is not removed, it will be a disaster for the treants who rely on the natural environment. Alice thinks that it is not too much to ask for a piece of living wood to help them solve this problem. Secret treasure, but obviously not something unique.

However, considering the tree people's bad attitude towards humans, Alice felt that if they asked them for it directly, the tree people would probably not agree, so Alice could only use this method to ask for the living wood from them—— Alice would have to spend time arguing with this gang of stubborn Treants when she could.

"This thing exudes a very disturbing aura. Just getting close to it makes me feel like I'm about to suffocate, and the magic power in my body has also become very slow. It seems that this thing is indeed the culprit of the recent pollution here. "

After studying this thing for a while, the elder of the tree people tribe nodded to Alice, and his tone became much better—even if the brave man is a human being, it is obviously not something the brave man can stop from destroying the environment and developing civilization. In addition, now that the brave man has helped them find out this hidden danger, the attitude is naturally much better.

However, although the brave man had been asked to help find out the source of the pollution, soon, the tree-human elder asked Alice for help in a little embarrassment:

"That... Brave, although we know that this thing is the cause of the pollution, how should we get rid of this thing?"

The elders of the tree people obviously thought about solving it themselves, so that they could owe less favor to the brave, but after they experimented, they found that the ring-shaped props on the tree trunk did not have any openings, as if they were put directly from the top of the tree. It looks like it's coming down.

Moreover, this thing is very strong despite its flexibility. The most powerful tree-man elder personally tried to destroy this item with magic power, but he failed. The magic power attack disappeared like a mud cow into the sea.

Alice saw the actions of the Treants, and sighed in her heart—this thing is a genuine regular-level item, which is different from the thing that Fatty forcibly judged as an "artifact" by his right hand. It is completely in line with their own abilities, and the tree people are obviously far from having the power to destroy rule-level props.

Therefore, the return of the tree people was also within Alice's expectation. Seeing the elders of the tree people asking herself some embarrassing questions, while Alice secretly smiled in her heart, she also dealt with them in a low voice according to her original plan. said in a rough voice:

"The nature of this thing is quite serious, very similar to something from the Demon Realm... If you want to deal with it, it may be very difficult to solve it violently. It is best to neutralize its effect."

Mentioning that this item is something from the Demon Realm is also a reason for Alice to intervene in the handling of this item as a "brave". As for "neutralizing" the effect of this item...

"The ability of this item will destroy the magic power in the air, resulting in incomplete magic power. This is the source of 'pollution', so we need to find something with the nature of 'destruction' to solve it."

Alice looked at the elders of the tree people, and slowly explained, "For example... living wood and so on."

The elder of the Treant clan was stunned on the spot - although Alice just said that the essence of the pollution is to destroy the magic power, he vaguely realized something, but when Alice said that he wanted the living wood, he still hesitated stand up.

Chapter 360: I am Xiaoguang, Xiaoguang is me

Logically speaking, Alice, as a brave man, helped them find out the source of pollution in their settlement, which solved a big problem. It is only natural for them to give out a piece of living wood to solve this problem—the tree elder himself is very happy. Clearly the attitude of their tree-human race towards human beings.

To put it bluntly, the brave can completely ignore them. After all, their attitude is really not good. There seems to be no reason to ask the brave to do free labor for them.

What's more, this living wood seems to be used to solve this source of pollution, so they have no reason to hide it. It is already a kindness for the brave to help them find the source of pollution, and they can't let the brave help them think of another way. The best way is to touch this polluting thing without using the living wood?

Thinking of this, the tree-human elder sighed. Although it hurts a bit, in order to ensure that the tree-human living environment will not be disturbed, he seems to have no choice but to bite the bullet and provide the brave with a piece of living wood.

After all, although the living wood can bring a more potential offspring to the treants, if even the living environment is destroyed, it doesn't make sense for the offspring to have potential. It is not easy to find a suitable place to live.

Originally, they still had a spare place to live, which was Gryffin Forest outside the Gryffin Kingdom—but recently they heard some news from the soldiers stationed there, that half of the Gryffin Forest seems to have disappeared. Turned into several huge mountains, so now they seem to have no other way out.

"Well, since the brave man is willing to help us in this way, we can't push further, at least we have to provide the materials."

The tree-human elder sighed. Although he had to pay a piece of living wood, it was still very cost-effective in exchange for a piece of normal living territory. After all, although the tree-human tree had a history of tens of thousands of years, the number of births was not large. But in general there is still stock.

The birth of living wood has a certain degree of randomness, and it needs to be nourished by the breath of the treants for a long time, so that there is a very small probability that a piece of living wood with an irregular shape will be born in the trunk of a nearby tree—the current inventory of the treants There are about 4 yuan left, and it still makes them feel a little distressed to take out one piece.

"This is the living wood."

Under the command of the tree-human elders, a tree-human who seemed to be of moderate size went to fetch a piece of living wood—the living wood was not big, it was about the size of a mobile phone box, and Alice didn't know if they chose it on purpose. A piece of the smallest living wood came over to himself.

But it doesn't matter, Alice took the living wood mainly to carve a figure to replace Andusia. Although the living wood is not big, it is more than enough to make a figure—I don't know if the tree people know Alice is actually holding this piece of living wood to make a figure, what kind of expression will it have.

Although Alice really wanted to know how they felt, it was clear that Alice would not cause trouble for herself now. After taking over the Living Tree from the tree-human who seemed reluctant to part with her, Alice walked to the polluted tree. In front of the giant tree covered by the roulette, he held the living wood with his left hand, and pressed the pollution roulette on the tree.

While pressing it up, under her control, Alice's magic power armor suddenly opened a groove on her left hand, the size of which was almost just enough to accommodate the living wood—then holding the living wood in Alice's left hand. The moment the wood was pushed up, the piece of living wood was directly pushed into the left hand of the magic power armor.

But this scene, in the eyes of the tree people, is like Alice pressing the living wood directly into the pollution roulette-although space magic can also achieve a similar effect, but if this kind of space magic is used , there must be very obvious fluctuations in magic power, but the treants did not feel this fluctuation.

So in this way, the tree people did not suspect that Alice secretly put away the living wood, and after Alice hid the living wood, she immediately pressed her right hand up, and opened a gap through her right hand to let her real right hand Touch the tainted wheel and regain control of the tainted wheel.

Then it was very simple, Alice, who had control over the pollution roulette, took off the pollution roulette very easily—the pollution roulette turned into a huge collar flew into the air, releasing the giant tree from its bondage It came out, and then turned into a small collar, which fell into Alice's hands.

"So, do you need this?"

Alice smiled and stretched out the pollution roulette in her hand towards the elder tree man, but obviously, the elder tree man was very decisive, knowing that he would definitely be out of control with this thing, so he quickly took two steps back, crazy shaking his head:

"No, no, we can't deal with this thing...let's ask the brave to take it away."

Alice also expected that he would not dare to take it. After all, although this thing seems to be temporarily harmless through the living wood, it is essentially a source of pollution. It won't explode again someday, it's more dangerous than a time bomb, so naturally I dare not accept it.

Nodding, Alice put away the pollution roulette, and then nodded to the tree elder:

"Now that the problem has been solved, I will take a step ahead. I suspect that this item is related to the Demon World, so I have to go back and investigate the relevant information... If I can collect any useful information in the future, I will also come and tell you of."

Alice's words also told the tree people that the reason why he appeared here was that he appeared in the tree people's territory because of the discovery of props related to the demon world. Will appear in the tree-human territory for no reason." Doubts.

The tree-human elder seemed to understand the meaning of Alice's words, but he still shook his head:

"It would be nice for the brave to have this kind of heart, but if there is any information, there is no need to tell us specifically... We tree-humans don't want to participate in these things between humans and demons."

It seems that the tree people really don't want to interfere in the affairs of the outside world at all - although there has been such speculation before, Alice still sighed inwardly when she heard the words of the tree people elder.

It can be seen from the performance of the tree people before that although they knew that a human had sneaked into their territory and even left a source of pollution, they had no intention of pursuing it from the beginning to the end—if they had any intention of pursuing it, then The Kingdom of Ryan and the Kingdom of Yimir should also pay attention to it.

After all, if this one is not good, it will lead to the tree people's revenge on humans. Even if the tree people will definitely not be able to withstand the counterattack of the human army in the end, it will be a trouble after all. of humans.

But the fact is that the Treants did not mention this matter to the Kingdom of Ryan and the Kingdom of Yimir at all, otherwise this matter should be recorded in the documents of the eldest prince Collins.

Shaking her head helplessly, since the tree people were not prepared to participate in the outside affairs at all, Alice did not force it. After saying goodbye to the tree people, she left alone.

She even suspected that the elder tree man had noticed that his behavior just now was a little abnormal. Maybe the elder tree man also suspected in his heart that the living tree was not necessary for decontamination—but he didn't open his mouth, but really followed Alice asked someone to take the living wood.

Maybe the Treants will continue with this attitude. Although Alice feels that this attitude of the Treants may bring them very bad consequences in the future, but... Alice is not qualified to tell them what to do. .

"Forget it... find someone to carve this piece of living wood into Andusia... oh no, it's Xiaoguang's figure."

Shaking her head and throwing away the thoughts in her mind, Alice untied the magic power armor on her body after leaving the territory of the treants, and then looked at the living tree in her left hand, "Andusia With Xiaoguang's face, I almost confused Andusia with Xiaoguang's appearance."
