You and me under the world tree

He shook his head at that, and then he just laughed.

"At that time, I really didn't seem to understand these things."

So can you understand now?

Staring at Hodder at this moment, Dietrich suddenly wanted to ask this question.

But if you think about it, maybe you don't need to ask this question at all.

Because countless facts have proved that human beings can also become ruthless.

And Dietrich has a clear understanding of this point.

As long as there are enough interests, it is completely fine to abandon the so-called family relationship.

"Sorry, I want to quit."

Finally, among the scenes of memory, it was Steckard who spoke first.

"Maybe the realm of gods and the world of heroes are extremely wonderful, but I still have family members here, and I hope to be with my family members."

At the same time, Hodder also spoke at that time.

"Even if this world is unsatisfactory, I still have a few friends and a lover."

Then, when the young man spoke like this, Hodder suddenly felt uncomfortable.

Because at this moment, he suddenly felt the sight of the girl beside him.

She just stared at herself.

"At that time, we registered our marriage in the game." She whispered

"right……"

"You stayed for me?"

When hearing Dietrich's question, Hodder suddenly felt uncomfortable.

Just like the escaping instinct that all human beings have, at this moment, the first reaction that came to his mind was actually escaping.

"I can't make sure that I can change my life when I go to another world...Isn't it?"

Then, the white-haired girl didn't speak, the corners of her mouth just raised.

Suddenly, an awkward atmosphere passed over.

It wasn't until the memory picture was reversed again that this silence was broken.

"Heroes are beautiful, but I really miss my family. My sister is going to college. If I can't watch her go to college, or even graduate and start a family, I really can't feel at ease."

"I'm just... content with the status quo."

Compared with Steckard's lofty reason, Hodder's side is a bit simple.

Rather, what is revealed at this moment is the caution created by that environment.

"For us, the world on the other side is an unknown. What we hear are just descriptions from others. I really have no way to believe these."

Even at this time, the young man didn't have too much hostility toward the gods, but he was still wary.

Rather, it is actually because of Slude that he has not speculated about the gods with the greatest malice until now.

So for them, it seems that this matter is over.

Because if they say no, they really can safely exit.

However, this is a fool's dream after all.

When Hodder and Steckerd decided to participate in the Danish game exhibition and participated in the internal game test as the top 100 players in the world, they stepped into an irreversible conspiracy.

Because they were attacked while they were resting in the villa purchased by Steckerd.

Because the surprise attack was encountered in sleep without any precautions, it was almost a near-death scene.

But in the end, the two young people completed the counter-kill.

"It's not normal."

Before waiting for Huo Dedo to say anything, Dietrich suddenly spoke.

"The Uktra Hill Group...they should be more careful. It's clear that people can relax their vigilance now, as long as they don't care about anything."

"Yeah, no one will hold them hostile, but they still launched an attack, as if they were determined to win their 'heroic soul'."

Howard sighed quietly.

"Why exactly?"

"Did they find 'you'?"

"No, it's impossible, otherwise I wouldn't be able to live now, and the problem probably lies with Steckerd."

Chapter 14: The Road to Resistance

In fact, Dietrich's guess is indeed reasonable.

Still launching an attack while still leaving room for it means that World Tree Corporation and the people behind it who may be gods must be determined to win.

So why?

Could it be because he failed to gather two 'heroes'?

No, not so.

After all, Dietrich hadn't had any major problems before, but she justly refused the invitation letter due to her busy schedule and other reasons.

There is such a premise here that the problem can only be caused by the two parties involved.

However, it is absolutely impossible for Hodder himself.

Maybe at the beginning, when he was young, he definitely couldn't understand these, because he wouldn't understand what kind of path he would take later.

However, now he can see through these.

The later sage Huo De made the gods suffer so much that he even had to make concessions.

This is already a situation of endless confrontation, and now is the most vulnerable moment of 'sage', they can't let him grow up no matter what.

So, the problem should be on the other person.

"Stekard? Still alive?"

"I'm okay...what the hell is going on?"

"I don't know, but it feels like we won't live long."

"I didn't expect that after rejecting their invitation, they would start to come up with tough measures."

In the picture of memory, the two who finally finished the battle met in a state of embarrassment, and then, they began to repair the entire house with half-baked magic and restore them completely.

Then the two attackers were placed together and piled up in the living room.

The last is a set of operations that both Hodder and Dietrich are familiar with now: memory reading.

Although the two attackers were killed by Hodder and Steckard by mistake, Hodder learned some magic no matter what.

"If I remember correctly, during that time, I should not have fully activated the magic."

"It can be seen that the technique is very immature."

If you want to evaluate it by the current level, you can only use 'immature'.

Huo De just looked at himself in the memory screen and used poor methods to arrange the enchantment and protect the house, and then began to use poor methods to read his memory.

However, although the method is immature, the young Hodder still read quite useful information.

Immediately afterwards, he set his sights on Steckerd.

"Are they here to attack you?" Hodder said.

There was incredible surprise in his voice, and at the same time, Steckard himself froze in place.

"Me? It shouldn't be."

"I don't think it should be, but the memory I read is like this."

"Is there no way to know the specific reason?"

"There is no way, at least for me now... there is no way."

The young man couldn't help lowering his head when Steckerd asked this question.

"Sorry, my magic... I can't use it proficiently yet."

Although his face was covered by glasses, anyone could hear the frustration in the young man's words.

Then, there was another strange silence.

The two young men who were suddenly attacked seemed to be still digesting the information they had received.

For them, it's more than just a thrill.

This even involves his own life safety.

"Well then..."

Finally, Steckard spoke slowly.

"You go now, since their target is me, it means that you are irrelevant to them, if you just get away now..."

"I can't go away, Steckard, I live with you after all."

Then, there was another silence.

"Since you can't leave, let's try to resist. We always have to find out what they want to do."

"I have family, Howard, who live not far from here, and my sister's birthday is just a few days away."

"Then send them away, do you have money? If not, I can support you a little bit."

As for how to withdraw, it depends on Steckard's own ideas.

After being stunned for a while, Steckard also nodded.

"Also, I have a friend who is also in Denmark recently and works in the company."

"Can he be trusted?"

"can……"

This is how the resistance belonging to the three began.

Hodder communicated with You Le, who knew nothing, briefly explained their current situation with him, and finally even showed him the supernatural power derived from the game.

You Le finally agreed to join after thinking about it for hours.

At that time, You Le was not the "little man who would do anything for profit" in Muth's mouth.

During these few hours, Steckerd called his parents. He said that he had something to deal with temporarily, and he might not be able to come back to celebrate his sister Su Na's birthday.

However, he has already sent a sum of money, and even bought air tickets and restaurants. As compensation for not being able to go home, he will find a way to prepare a grand 'birthday trip' for Su Na.

The destination is from Denmark to Germany, France, and finally to the Americas, and then to Asia. In short, it is a world trip starting from Denmark.

He has arranged everything.

However, this arrangement obviously led to reprimands. Although the parents were pleased with the child's growth, they still complained about the fact that he could not come back.

Not to mention Su Na who is the person involved.

"She had just graduated from high school and was admitted to the highest university in Denmark, but when she found out that her brother couldn't go home to celebrate for her, she would naturally complain."

After seeing this scene, Hodder couldn't help but speak.

However, he didn't know why, but he couldn't help feeling sad in his heart.

Is it pure sympathy, or envy for the bonds between their families?

"This approach doesn't make much sense, because once they are dismissed, it is tantamount to handing over the weakness to the 'World Tree'."

"There is no way. After all, at this time, Steckard himself is the target of World Tree Company. If he keeps his family by his side, the problem will be even bigger."

Finally, Howard couldn't help but sighed.

"And, even if I don't look at the things behind, I can probably guess where the problem is."
