Two-dimensional Raiders of Sailor Killer

"As early as when my brother did it, I was aware of his intentions. So I reached out to this little girl in time. Although she was seriously injured, she is still alive and is now receiving treatment at my place. And your friends, I have all transferred to my side with my strength. Please come with me."

"........."

Hearing this, Luke immediately doubted rather than believed.She pretended to be distressed, but actually stared closely at the expression change of Nanshijieshu in secret. After she didn't notice any suspicious phenomena, she was relieved, "Okay, take me away, get out of this ghost place quickly .”

"I understand." Nanshijieshu responded softly, and the face floating on the root of the tree disappeared immediately.The thick tree root quickly approached Luke's side, and then touched Luke's body carefully.The next moment, Luke felt a magical power gathering outside his body, and then formed a thin protective cover around his body.And although the protective cover is very thin, Luke's feeling tells him that it's not that fragile.

The roots wrapped around the protective cover, and then dragged the protective cover and Luke inside to the ground.

After ten minutes...

After a "rampage" operation underground, Luke returned to the ground under the leadership of the South World Tree.Once on the ground, the protective shield that surrounded her disappeared.

Luke raised his head and carefully looked at the scene in front of him. What caught his eyes was a giant tree that was so thick that it was indescribable.

This tree soars into the sky, straight into the sky in the true sense, with a lush crown and many branches, looking like a green ocean.And it's not alone here, Luke saw many ragged elves with pointed ears working near the tree and the tree, not only them, but also a bunch of very precious animals living on the tree, relying on this big tree The fruit that bears lives.

Turning around slightly and looking around, Luke found a transparent barrier formed by magic at a distance of about 20 meters wide with the big tree as the axis.This barrier seems to completely isolate the outside from here, and it looks very strong. Similarly, some wild beasts outside seem to be unable to see inside. It should be that some magic that affects vision has been applied, so that they do not know what is inside.

At this moment, Luke heard Pez's familiar and anxious voice, "Old Lu!!"

Turning around to look at the place where the sound came from, Luke saw that the intact Pez was trotting in front of him from not far away together with Swanden and Yang.Pez first looked Luke up and down, and after seeing that there was no wound, his face relaxed, "Great, I thought where did that monster get you? What happened to you?"

Hearing this, Luke stretched out his hand and scratched the side of his face slightly, "Well... nothing happened, it's just that the arrogant guy pulled me over to single out, and it has become like this now." As he said, Luke looked up. He raised his left arm so that others could see the monster skull hanging from his hand.Yang smiled, blew a cheerful whistle, and joked,

"Cool! That must be very handsome to hang at home!"

"That's what I planned too. But let's not talk about it, what about Tahe?"

"This..." Pez's face became complicated, she lowered her voice and said, "I suffered a serious injury, and I am now unconscious. Luke, be mentally prepared."

Seeing that Pez seemed to hesitate, Luke became even more anxious, "I understand, but take me to see her first."

Tower and Mochu have a very special meaning to Luke, so Luke doesn't want to lose her anyway. If this kind of thing really happened, it would definitely be a huge loss for Luke.

"..." Seeing that Luke was very persistent, Pez didn't say anything more, but turned around and took Luke to the simple cabin under the World Tree.Here, two elf women are using some herbs to treat the wounded lying on the ground.

And at the innermost part, Luke saw the tower and the innermost part lying on the grass swept on the ground at a glance.She hurried over, squatted down, and found that the tower and the middle left hand had disappeared, leaving only temporary healing wounds.Moreover, there was this deep claw mark on her body, which almost ripped her stomach open.Fortunately, the treatment was timely and the matter did not develop into a more serious situation.

Even in a coma, Ta and Mochu seemed to sense Luke's presence, their little faces were pale, their right hand held Luke's hand in a mysterious way, and they murmured unconsciously in their small mouths, "Monaka... very Be strong...Monaka...haven't cried out in pain...my sis...Monaka...haven't let...you down..."

"Silly boy..." Luke stroked the messy hair of the tower and the most distressed, and said softly,

"I know you never let me down."

Chapter 170 Seven Cruel Road (Part [-])

【Cruel Road, Road to All Beings】

Having said that, the distressed feeling in Luke's heart still hasn't diminished in the slightest.She lightly stroked Ta and Mozhong's pale face, stood up when she saw that the other party seemed to have no danger of life, and asked Swanden and Yang to stay and take care of Ta and Mozhong, and she and Pez went ahead together out of here.

After coming outside, Pez subconsciously paid attention to Luke's face, and asked intimately, "Are you okay, Lu."

"I'm fine. After seeing Tahe being made like this, I suddenly feel less guilty about everything I did before." Luke said slowly in a flat tone, and then took a deep breath , There was a little tiredness in the eyes.Hearing this, Pez inevitably felt a little curious and asked, "What happened before?"

"I killed that bastard, including his soul, and all the souls he used as a shield." Luke said simply and horrified.After listening to it, Pez couldn't help but be moved. She also knew that killing someone and killing the other person's soul were two different things, but she still subconsciously said,

"It's okay, it's not a big deal. If anyone comes to make trouble later, I'll help you out."

This almost subconscious trust and goodwill are based on the decades of friendship between Pez and Luke.Not only the identity of blood-bound brothers, but also the true friendship between the two.Let Pez shoot when the opponent needs him, and Luke will also shoot when Pez needs him. They are almost indistinguishable from each other.

Hearing this familiar and warm words as always, Luke couldn't help but turned his head and glanced at Pez, forced a smile, and said sincerely, "Thank you, Pez. But I know what I'm doing, I didn't stay Any hidden dangers."

"That's the best..." Pez nodded, and the expression on her face showed that she didn't look surprised. After all, Pez knew that Luke was not an idiot.

Things will certainly not leave trouble for themselves.And at this moment, an old voice came from not far away with the sound of the crutches falling to the ground, "Your Excellency----"

Feeling that the voice seemed to be coming towards him, Luke turned around and found that it was a crooked old man with gray hair, wrinkled face and crutches, walking slowly towards him.And the face of the other party is also the face of the old man who appeared on the root of the tree before. The identity of the other party is almost self-evident, it is the South World Tree.

"Pez, can I ask you to go and see Tahe? I think this guy has something to say to me." Luke turned his head to look at Pez and said, the latter nodded after listening, turned and left without saying anything up.Soon, an old man with a cane and claiming to be Nanshijie came to Luke, "Your Excellency, I am very glad to meet you."

"I am also very happy to meet you, and by the way, thank you very much for saving the people on our side."

Out of politeness, Luke spoke more respectfully, and did not look down on others because of his strength.

"Hehe...this is what I should do..." The old man stroked his gray beard, and kept a kind smile on his old face, "I can't continue to watch my brother do anything wrong, if he continues to let him If this continues, who knows what will happen?"

"So your brother, what's the matter with the North World Tree? You don't look aggressive, but he is like a mad dog. I didn't do anything and he came to kill me." Luke cut to the point asked.

"Hey..." South World Tree sighed deeply, and then said, "This was a long time ago."

"A long, long time ago, when the world had not yet been divided into the North and South continents, the relationship between the two of us used to be very good. But since the continent was split in half by an earthquake, and the rise of human beings, in order to take care of these races, the connection between us It started to become less and less. Soon, we began to frequently find that some people who did not belong to this world began to come here inexplicably."

"A large part of them are the traversers of the sixth area. These people seem to come from the world that is bound to our world, and some people will come regularly. The remaining few people are from some of us. An unknown world, and with a very powerful force."

"It's a good thing that most of these people just leave for fun, stroll around the main road a few times, enjoy the scenery, tease the beautiful women and so on, and then leave. They seem to be [disliked] for our world, although I don't know why, but at that time we were very relieved, after all, nothing happened."

"However, there are still some people who started to run amok in this place. One of them even cooked a woman alive in front of my brother, and even laughed at him for not being able to do anything. From then on, I That brother couldn't bear it anymore, and he started to take the initiative to liquidate all the people who might be the so-called [Heavenly Strange Demon], which he also learned from those people over there."

"I felt that his emotions were getting out of control. From the original liquidation to the killing, I realized that he had begun to lose control. I originally wanted to persuade him to return to the right path and seriously examine everyone. Don't Killing innocent people. But I think he can't listen anymore, he doesn't even reply to my past messages."

"The most serious time was when I really realized that my brother was hopeless. It was when he regarded those three brave men as alien demons from the sky thousands of years ago. Those three brave men were indeed With the power from beyond the sky, their equipment has this very obvious aura, but these people did not use it to do evil, but that guy still killed them without mercy."

"I have known since then that sooner or later he will face the same end. Then, it is now." The old man turned around and looked at Luke with serious eyes, "I must thank you, kill He is a correct choice. Even if it is a strange demon from outside the sky, the villains among them are also a minority among the few, and innocent people must not be killed indiscriminately. If you kill his life now, it means saving a lot of people in the future."

"You don't seem to hate me at all, Beishishu is your brother, right?"

"Although he is a brother, I can't let him continue to exist as such a beast. He has already chosen his path, so I will also make my choice." Nan Shijieshu said softly.

Hearing this, Luke couldn't help but think of some other things, and asked, "But as World Trees, if I kill one of you, will it have no effect on this continent?" South World Tree replied, " There is basically no impact, because my brother has not been in charge of human affairs for a long time. Whether it is the Northern Continent or the Southern Continent, I am basically in charge of it now, and his departure will not bring about any substantial impact. "

"So..." Luke turned around and looked at the body of the leafy World Tree. "I noticed that you have many other creatures here. Are these all protected by you?"

Hearing this, Nan Shijieshu leaned on a cane, turned tremblingly to face his own body, and said with a gratified tone, "Well, I am doing my best to protect some creatures that are about to become extinct. Including this continent original spirit

, fairy beasts, ancient goblins, etc... Although I don't know how long it will last, but I will continue to do my best. "

"By the way..." Nanshijie seemed to have thought of something, reached out his hand and took a look in his pocket, then took out a diamond-shaped badge inlaid with rubies, which looked extremely gorgeous, handed it to Luke, and said :

"This is the emblem of the brave Redwood Honoka from long ago. It is the source of her strength. The remaining two have been devoured by my brothers, and this is the only one I rescued. Since you and them are from Yu Tianwai, then I think this thing should also be given to you."

Looking at the diamond-shaped badge in front of him, Luke keenly felt the flow of the power of nothingness from it. She took it lightly, and as soon as the badge was in his hand, Luke felt a fiery power flowing inside, and...

Not too young...

"Thank you, I will cherish it." Luke accepted the badge seriously, and put it in his pocket.And at this moment, Luke noticed a slight change in the face of the South World Tree, and said with a little embarrassment, "Your Excellency, can I ask you to promise me one more thing?"

"?" Although he felt a little strange in his heart, Luke nodded and agreed, "But it doesn't matter."

"It's actually about the reproduction of the elves here."

[End of Cruel Road]

Chapter 170 Eight Race Survival Issues

"Huh? The problem of the reproduction of elves?" Luke frowned slightly, thinking that he had heard it wrong, "Are you sure what you want to talk about?"

"Yes." South World Tree nodded vigorously, his old body seemed to be trembling with excitement, and he began to explain: "The elves on our side are basically women, and there are very few men. And the elves want to The difficulty of procreating offspring is far higher than other races, only a little lower than that of the dragon race, and only those with strong blood and vitality can conceive them. That's why I noticed you..."

"Uh..." Luke pointed at his face speechlessly, "Well, I'm a woman now. You said you want me to impregnate them all. Is this a new joke? And your side There are also male elves, why can't they go up?"

"Hmm... In order to cope with the decline of the population, the elves had magic to make female elves conceive the children of other women a long time ago. And although there are men in this group, they are basically weak people, Please look this way, Your Excellency." Nan Shijieshu turned around and pointed in one direction with his crutches.Luke looked along, and immediately found a cute-looking young pink-haired elf girl playing with other children by the creek not far away.

"I saw it, what's wrong?"

"Do you think this is a man or a woman?"

"Ah?" A bad premonition rose in Luke's heart, and he said without much confidence, "It should be... a woman?" Nan Shijieshu shook his head when he heard the words, and said, "Unfortunately, he is male."

"Hey????"

This really surprised Luke. She never expected that the child who looked so much like a girl was actually a man.Looking closely, the opponent's skeleton is also very small, and it is estimated that he will be a relatively slender person when he grows up.And this kind of person, it may indeed be difficult for the elves, who are already difficult to conceive, to conceive a child.

"Are all male elves like this?" Luke asked South World Tree in disbelief.The latter pondered, and said: "60% are like this, and the remaining 4% are not much stronger. Only a very, very small number of elf children can have the physique of a dragon and a tiger, but we don't have a physique here now. of."

Well... Luke finally understands why the South World Tree wants to ask himself to do this kind of thing...

If 60% of the men in a population are like this, then the reproductive problem is definitely a big problem.

Not only that, Nan Shijie continued, "Although elves have a long lifespan, it is difficult for them to live beyond 3000 years. Most of the elves here are thousands of years old. Even if the population is protected by me, it will die out naturally. Their eggs are very rare, and it takes several years for one to mature. Now there is no suitable mating partner at all, and everything is completely wasted."

"Uh..." Luke couldn't help but feel deeply speechless when he heard that these female elves would only have a mature egg for several years. This race is really a bit too weird. It's no wonder that such inefficient reproduction does not perish .

"Haven't you considered putting them back into the human world? If I can do it, most of the humans in this world can too." Luke tentatively suggested.However, after listening to it, Nan Shijieshu shook his head violently, his gray beard shook wildly, "No, no, this group of human beings is completely incapable. I have been paying attention to the direction of the entire human world. They are now Completely insane, if I let these elves out, I'm just giving them a few more slaves, I can't do this kind of thing. And..."

Nan Shijie raised his head, looked at Luke with very serious eyes, and said: "And this is not a task that ordinary people can do, sir, although this kind of thing would be a good job in the eyes of ordinary people, but I I have to tell you that this is actually a very heavy burden. It... a

It's not easy at all, there must be a strong enough person to be able to do it. "

"That's it..." Luke sighed softly in his heart, and then said bluntly, "I'm sorry, I refuse."

"Huh? Why?" This time the other party was a little surprised.

"I don't want to be a stallion, and..." Luke turned his head and glanced around. Most of the elves passing not far away were very beautiful women, and they frequently looked at Luke, their eyes full of Spring.However, Luke's resistance in this aspect is relatively high. He didn't have any thoughts, and said in a flat tone, "I really don't have that much time to spend several years impregnating so many elves. I still have a lot of things to do." busy."

This is not a lie, Luke really doesn't have the time to devote all his attention to this.First of all, she is not particularly interested in this thing itself, and secondly, Mondry is still fighting, and Luke must always pay attention to the movement, and there is no room for relaxation.Even after it's all over, something about nothingness is going to screw Luke up.

Going back and forth between reality and nothingness, all kinds of busy things have already emptied Luke's time, so there is so much energy to be a stallion.

"Ten..." Nan Shijieshu gritted his teeth and said, looking very hard to let go, "Your Excellency only needs to be in charge of ten, their bodies are fully prepared, and you don't need to spend too much time at all. How about it?"

ten...

"..." Luke was silent for a moment, then shook his head decisively, "No, excuse me, I can't do this."

Seeing Luke's resolute refusal, Nan Shijieshu's eyes showed a hint of disappointment, and he sighed: "Is it still not possible? Well, I understand, maybe I should find some other ways." Luke couldn't help but asked again One sentence, "Since you are a world tree, can't you use your own power to make them pregnant? Why do you have to ask me for help?"

Hearing this, Nan Shijie smiled, his thin lips trembling, and there was a deep vicissitudes in his expression, "Although I am called Shishishu, this world is not created by me, but only witnessed by me. It sounds good For one thing, I am the world tree entangled in the whole world. To put it bluntly, I am just an incomparably huge tree spirit. Your Excellency, you are too confident in the power I can possess, and I have not yet reached the limit That step."

"Sapling or something, you are really humble..." Luke smiled slightly, and he naturally didn't believe the other party's claim that he was a dryad. The South World Tree must have a lot of power, there is no doubt about it.But it remains to be seen whether the other party is actually unable to impregnate these elves, but Luke doesn't really care.

Feeling that the words were almost finished, Luke asked South World Tree a question that he was more concerned about, "Okay, I think we have talked enough. Now I am planning to leave, but there is still time to go." There is one thing I need to ask you, I will not live in seclusion like a hermit in this world, on the contrary I will also participate in some political activities, national wars, I want to ask you where is your bottom line?"

"I know what kind of war you are going to participate in, is it about those demons?" Nan Shijieshu looked a little more serious, and said: "I will not take care of this matter, as long as your army maintains the current practice , if you don’t carry out large-scale massacres and don’t promote Khorne, then I won’t control you at all.”

"What if many enemies come to seek death on their own initiative?"

"An eye for an eye is enough." South World Tree replied.

"........."

After getting the answer he wanted and understanding the bottom line of the South World Tree, Luke didn't stay here any longer, but quickly left here with the others.She herself has no interest in this South World Tree, or the whole world, so she just got to know it a little bit, and she doesn't plan to stay any longer.

Ta and Mozhong's wounds were only treated briefly, barely hanging their lives, and she must be given better treatment as soon as possible.

A few hours later, Luke and others returned to the manor.

After handing the tower and to Lorena for more proper treatment, Luke also contacted Meggis and told about the situation here. The latter quickly understood and said that he would come to pick him up soon They are there for healing.

Although I don't really want Tahe to go to Mondry's side for treatment, it is undeniable that the medical level of Mondry's side is the strongest that Luke knows so far.Tahe didn't suffer a minor injury, so it's best to go over there and have a look.Then…

Conference room on the fourth floor…

"I've been waiting for you two for a long time."

After finishing the contact, Luke came to his seat from the window and sat down, looking up at Swanden and Yang who were sitting not far from him.The former still had an unsmiling look, and his face could be described as facial paralysis.There was a slight smile on the latter's face, which looked a little weird.

"So, what do you mean by cooperation?"

Chapter 170 IX Agreement with Red Hunter

Hearing this, Swanden nodded in understanding, her emerald green hair rippling slightly with the shaking of her body, and even the commander's rank on her chest seemed to be shining, "Glutton..."

"You can call me sir." Luke reminded intimately.

"Okay, Mr. Glutton." Swanden reacted, and then took out a bag from his pocket.

Xiaobao put the things in a small sampling bag on the table and gently pushed it towards Luke, "Please look at this."

"..." Seeing something slide over, Luke looked down and found that it was filled with a very familiar fiery red ore.She just thought about it, and recalled that this was a coal-like resource they had obtained in this world, but according to the locals, there seemed to be fire magic power in this ore, so it was far away. It is much more resistant to burning than ordinary coal.Its name is also called fire coal.

Just a piece of coal the size of a fist is enough to keep the family fireplace burning for a whole day.The only disadvantage is that fire coal is not a particularly stable thing. Burning fire coal is very easy to blow up some sparks, and sometimes even hit people's legs.

"I know this, this is fire coal, is the cooperation you mentioned related to this?" Luke looked up at Swanden.The latter looked serious, and said: "Yes, Mr. Taotie. To be honest, we really need to use this kind of thing to temporarily replace the energy we use now. You should know that to maintain all the high-end equipment in our entire Red Hunter Machinery requires a huge amount of energy, and our reserves are already insufficient."

Listening patiently to what the other party said, Luke reached out and picked up the small piece of coal in front of him, and asked while looking at it, "But as far as I know, your machinery doesn't support this kind of energy supply, right? Are you going to How do you use something like this?"

Hearing this, Yang on one side took up the conversation, "In fact, we have already negotiated with Mondry. They have some idle scientific researchers who can help deal with this energy conversion problem. What we need is only It's [-]% interest."
