Chapter 513 Bitter Epilogue

In the bitter garden, raindrops exuding sweet fragrance are still falling.

The rain became heavier and heavier, and the rain quickly extinguished all the burning buildings and vegetation. The dry soil became moist again, and a hazy mist gradually rose over the entire land.

Amidst the rain, many goblins and aboriginal humans were wandering around the city blankly, like a group of unconscious zombies.

This is the inevitable effect of the forgetting potion. Under the continuous erosion of rain, people will not only gradually forget the past, but also continue to forget what they are experiencing now. They can't even remember that they are in the rain and need an umbrella. So I can only wander aimlessly like now.

"Is the dose too harsh?"

In a pavilion on the street, three clones gathered under the pavilion to take shelter from the rain. Linglong looked at the sight of a group of zombies wandering outside, and looked at the herb picker with some worry: "If this rain continues, it won't kill them all. Are you feeling stupid?"

"Are you cruel? I don't even think it's enough. If we don't increase the dose now, we will be the ones in trouble later." The herb collector said calmly.

"So, how do you plan to end it?" Linglong frowned and looked at the herb collector.

This is what she hates most about this guy. He always likes to make silent calculations alone and refuses to explain clearly to them. This makes them always feel that they can't see what this person is really thinking.

Perhaps sensing Linglong's impatience, the herb collector finally said more after a pause.

"Have you noticed that the spirits of the goblins who contracted with the Fool have become very stable?"

Linglong was startled when he heard the words, pondered for a moment, and nodded: "This is true, Xiao Lanlan won't say it, Tina and Yilijiang, after knowing everything and experiencing such a huge mental shock, did not Showing a tendency to become weird..."

"What do you mean..." The watcher vaguely guessed No. 2's intention.

"Since this is feasible, it is better to carry it forward. Anyway, our fundamental purpose is to ensure that as many goblins here survive as possible, so letting them all contract with the Fool is the most efficient way." The herb collector said.

"Are you going to... move away?" Tina asked uncertainly.

She knew that the Fools were a group of restless people, and it was impossible for a large number of Fools to stay in the Bitter Garden for a long time. If they wanted to make a contract with the Fools, the goblins would have to go out.

"Well, after all, we can't keep anyone here anymore." The herb collector nodded.

The group of fairies they banished before were in the Star Spirit Realm. If these fairies were allowed to approach the Bitter Garden, they would run the risk of being controlled by snakes. Therefore, the Bitter Garden could only stay in this secluded space.

The snake is a monster that plays with people's hearts. The most powerful seal for it is not the sealing gun or the guardian. It takes away all the people and fairies in the Bitter Garden, turning it into a deserted city.

Only when it loses all the objects on which it can exert its power will the Bitter Garden become a true prison for the snake.

"In this case, let's act quickly while our prestige is still there..." After hearing this, Linglong agreed with the herb gatherer's plan.

The next three clones immediately started taking action and rushed to three countries respectively.

When the rain stopped, the three people gathered their respective citizens and announced to them the upcoming relocation of the entire family.

At this time, the goblins and aborigines had just woken up from this rain of oblivion. Looking at the ruins of their homes around them, they had not yet figured out what had happened. When they suddenly heard such news without warning, they were stunned for a moment. I am extremely confused.

In this regard, the three of them have already discussed the reasons in advance.

The fact that the fairy's mother tree is transformed from the monster's tail cannot be disclosed among the fairies. This will shake the fairies' most fundamental world view and make more fairies become weird.

So the three of them didn't mention the snakes at all. They just said that they found a new goblin royal family in the star spirit world, so they wanted to bring them back to the star spirit world and accept the rule of the new king. As long as the goblins are willing to follow this royal family , there will be an opportunity to cultivate a new fairy mother tree in the future, allowing the fairy clan to return to prosperity.

Of course, it is actually impossible to have a new fairy mother tree. The fairy clan that has lost its population source is destined to never prosper again. But the three of them can only come up with this argument at this time. As for how to explain it later, They can't control it anymore, let the fairies and fairies have a headache.

And this reason really convinced the goblins. The withering of the mother tree has always been the most difficult thing for them to accept over the years. Now there is finally hope of cultivating a new mother tree. The goblins are overjoyed and go back to their homes one after another to start packing and preparing. migrate.

Next, Linglong opened the entrance from the Bitter Garden to the Star Spirit Realm, and the fairies began to slowly pass through.

In order to ensure the safety of the goblins, Dawn City stayed near the imperial capital in advance, and the returning goblins were sent to Dawn City as soon as possible.

The entire migration process lasted for nearly three days before it ended.

Due to the limited time, Mu You and Fuya rushed back to the Star Spirit World before the end of the first day, summoned fairies and fairies and submitted the task.

The original mission of the Goblin Fairy was for him to find the whereabouts of the goblins and bring back the Bitter Garden.

Unfortunately, this was obviously impossible. After Mu You summoned the goblin and fairy, he explained the cause and effect to her.

Fortunately, the goblin fairy was reasonable enough and understood the seriousness of the matter. She did not declare the mission a failure because of this. Instead, she was very grateful to the clones for their contributions over the years. In such a dangerous situation, she was able to save so many tribesmen and bring them back safely. I no longer dare to ask for more.

"Thank you for your efforts. The fairies will always remember your kindness. Leave the rest to me."

The goblin fairy bowed sincerely to Mu Xing, then went to Dawn City with him, and began to gather the returning goblins as a royal family.

Mu You didn't know how she did it. In short, the goblins and fairies successfully integrated the goblins from the three countries in just one day, eliminated the hatred between each other, and took advantage of the environment and materials of Dawn City. , began to build a statue for the God of Order on the spot.

After confirming that the situation was stable, Mu You rushed back to Earth before the door closed, and immediately summoned the big shots from various countries at the forum to hold an impromptu meeting.

Mu You did not explain clearly the three clones and the four thousand years of time confusion, but simply explained Gu She's current situation.

The goblins are directly connected to the power of the snakes. Once too many goblins die, the snakes will break out and destroy the world. Therefore, humans now need to protect these goblins.

Next, they need to select a group of elite players and make contracts with these hundreds of thousands of goblins. In the future, these players will also have to shoulder the important task of protecting their respective goblins for a long time.

Although Mu You did not provide any evidence, no one had any doubts. After all, there was no need to lie about this matter. Besides, regardless of whether there was a threat from snakes or not, contracting with goblins was a great deal for human beings. benefits.

Apart from anything else, the fact that fairies can help humans stay young forever is enough to make countless players scramble for it.

Therefore, after Mu You announced the news, no one at the scene objected. Representatives from various countries and major forces even started arguing on the spot over the number of goblins to be admitted. For such a good thing, all countries naturally want to try to get as many places as possible.

Mu You didn't care about this and let them fight for it on their own. He only had one requirement, that is, the final candidate must meet the conditions. In addition to meeting the standard in terms of strength, his character also needs to be screened, and there must be no abuse of fairies. .

Of course, there is no need to worry too much about this aspect. After all, all the elves bring to the contractors are basically benefits. As long as they are not psychopathic, no one will abuse them.

After some wrangling, representatives from various countries quickly divided up all the contract quotas and went back to start arranging manpower.

Mu You also discussed with the goblins and fairies in advance. After the goblins have carved several statues of gods in a month, they will move the whole family to the Forgotten Land and make a contract with the Fools. After that, it will depend on the goblins' own wishes and whether they are willing to stay. Those who are down can stay on the earth, and those who are unwilling can return to the star spirit world. The three sky cities of Dark Night, Starlight, and Evernight, which do not plan to fly, can accept them at any time.

…

Three days later, Bitter Garden.

"This is probably the last batch."

The three clones stood not far from the exit portal of Sky City, watching the last batch of goblins and aborigines queue up to enter the whirlpool-shaped portal.

"It's time for us to leave..."

Looking at the Sky City that instantly became empty, the watchman sighed and looked back at the red goblin floating behind him.

"Where is Miss Tina? Are you going back to lead the fairies as a royal? Or..."

"snort!"

Before the watchman finished speaking, Tina snorted coldly: "Don't think Tina doesn't know that you are actually very tired mentally and mentally. Without Tina by your side to supervise you, as your spiritual support, if you What should I do if my heart is soon invaded by snakes?”

"So, Tina will reluctantly follow you for a while... But let me tell you first, this is not because Tina wants to follow you, it is just a helpless move by Tina to ensure the safety of the world. Can you Don’t get me wrong!”

The watchman looked at her with a smile: "That's great. With Miss Tina here, I feel much more at ease."

At this time, not far away from the two of them, Linglong knelt down on the ground with her hands on the ground, looking like she had been devastated: "My harem... I spent four thousand years of hard work to collect three thousand The beauties were all sent away... Iri-chan is also missing... Why am I the only one who is unlucky..."

"It should have been disbanded long ago. This is simply an unhealthy life..." While Linglong was thinking about it, a voice suddenly came from behind.

Linglong suddenly turned around in surprise and looked at somewhere behind. On the branch of a small tree there, a green fairy sat on a leaf, blending perfectly with the surrounding plants. If she hadn't taken the initiative to speak , it is difficult for a few people to find anyone there.

"Iri-chan! I knew you wouldn't leave me!" Linglong suddenly smiled and rushed over, holding Isabelle in her hands and rubbing her in front of her face.

Isabelle pushed Linglong's face away with some disgust, hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed: "You have to promise that if anything happens in the future, you won't hide it from me again... Also, you won't eat or drink too much in the future. , to maintain a regular life..."

"I know, I know. As long as you come back, I will follow you. You are indeed my favorite!" Linglong nodded obediently.

Just when the two clones were enjoying themselves with their respective goblins, on the other side, the lonely herb gatherer suddenly walked away, walked to the side road, and reached out to push aside a bush on the side of the road.

"ah……"

Behind the bushes, Gargamel's old figure was exposed.

She had been hiding here and peeking from afar, but she didn't expect to be discovered like this.

Being pulled out in this way, Gargamel was so embarrassed that he wanted to dig a hole on the spot to bury himself.

"Old, teacher, I..." Gargamel had to pretend to be calm and sit up, lowering his head and weakly trying to defend himself, but he couldn't think of a suitable reason for a while, but his hands were tightly grasping the hem of his clothes, shaking nervously.

"Glat, you have worked hard all these years."

The herbalist suddenly said: "Because of your efforts, we can successfully save the past and the future."

"Teacher..."

Gargamel looked up in surprise, and tears filled his eyes for a while.

She had actually learned before that the teacher asked her to stay in the Bitter Forest not for her studies, but just to let her wait for someone to appear and complete the closed loop of history.

She was sure that she was really just used as a tool. It was impossible to say that she didn't feel sad at all.

But at this moment, hearing the teacher's words, the grievance in her heart suddenly dissipated completely, as if with this sentence, everything she had paid before was worth it.

"Have you been suffering these years?" The herbalist spoke again.

"Ah... No, not at all!" Gargamel was stunned for a moment and shook his head hurriedly, but his slightly shifted sight still exposed her insincerity.

The herbalist sighed, looked at the old man in front of him, and took out a metal short stick from his sleeve.

"This is the archiver. As long as you touch it, you can go back to the past. You will have a youthful appearance and a young heart again, and forget all the memories that make you painful."

Gargamel stared blankly at the short stick handed by the teacher, and subconsciously stretched out her hand, but when she was about to touch the short stick, she hesitated for a moment, but then retracted her hand.

"Is this the gift that the teacher prepared for me..."

Gargamel laughed bitterly: "If it is such a gift, please allow me to refuse..."

"Oh? You don't want to regain your youth?" The herbalist looked at her in confusion.

"No, I just don't want to forget these years..." Gargamel said with a wry smile.

Four thousand years ago, before she touched the archiver, she and her teacher didn't have much interaction. It was after the Great Disaster that the herbalist officially accepted her as his apprentice. Most of the things she and her teacher experienced together were after the archiver. If she touches the archiver now, these precious memories will disappear, and she and her teacher will become strangers who met by chance again, not even formal friends.

This is something she absolutely cannot accept. She would rather be old than not want to forget this memory.

"It seems that Linglong is right..."

The herbalist looked at her and did not take back the metal short stick, but took out a bottle of potion from his body with his other hand.

"This is a regeneration potion, specially formulated for you. After taking it, it can help your body regenerate to around 18 years old. It will not affect your memory, but there may be a deviation of five to ten years, which is slightly risky."

"I originally thought that this memory in the future should be a painful memory that you want to erase, and the archiver is the most suitable choice for you. Since you don't think so, then it's up to you to choose whether to forget this memory."
