Volume 19, Chapter 153 The Tree of Sky and Earth
"Don't you really think that I don't dare to offend you Olympus Protoss?" It was clear from Pandora's expression that she didn't believe that I had such courage, but after I asked such a question, she changed her mind. He hesitated. After some rethinking, she suddenly raised her head and looked at me in surprise and asked, "Are you really planning to recruit us?"
"Originally I just wanted to give it a try, but I changed my mind after meeting you. Talents are welcome wherever they go, and you are exactly like that."
Pandora lowered her head and thought for a moment, then suddenly extended her little finger to me in the gesture of a child pulling a hook to make a promise. I looked down at her extended little finger in surprise, and then looked back at her face. "What are you...?"
"Let's make a promise." Pandora said with a smile.
"What's the meaning?"
"I won't betray Hades, but that doesn't mean I can't betray Zeus."
"You want me to dig Hades over?"
"No, we need to add Minos and Aeacus." Rhadamantis suddenly came up and extended his little finger.
Pandora's smile became even brighter, and she deliberately tilted her head in a very cute way and said, "Of course Persephone can't be thrown away."
"Hello? I want to recruit talents, not to engage in a large-scale immigration of the gods, okay? Do you want to move the entire underworld of the Olympus pantheon?"
"It would be better if you could do it."
I covered my face helplessly, and after a while I let go of my hands and turned to look at Ares. "how do you say?"
Ares didn't seem to have reacted yet. He looked at Pandora in a daze and asked, "Are you no longer on my side?"
Pandora smiled and replied: "That depends on what you decide. If you also change jobs, we will still be on the same team, otherwise we may be enemies in the future."
"Isn't it? Why do you just rebel when you say you rebel? What should I do? I won't even negotiate terms!"
I looked at Ares who was anxiously wandering around and said, "Actually, regarding your welfare, do you think if I said I had a way to solve your tragic luck, would you consider betraying Zeus and messing with me?"
Although Ares is not smart, that doesn't mean he doesn't know what he needs. Although he has super abilities, he always loses due to various accidents. The most tragic thing in life is this. Now I suddenly heard that there is a way to solve his tragic luck. Anyone with normal thinking would want it. As for betraying Zeus, it seems that Zeus relied on power to become king among the Olympus gods. There is basically no emotion between the gods and him, but more hatred. Therefore, Ares has no psychological burden at all about betraying Zeus.
"Do you really have a way to solve my luck problem?"
I didn't answer Ares directly, but clapped my hands. The door behind me suddenly slid to one side, and then I saw Jixiang and Ruyi being carried in on two simple sedans. "Let me introduce to you, these two are the mascots of our Frost Rose Alliance, Jixiang and Ruyi."
Ares nodded mechanically, and then asked: "But what does this have to do with me?"
"The relationship lies in their special skills." I said to Pandora: "Please cooperate with me." After saying that, I handed Pandora a piece of sex. "Say the number of points you want to throw, then throw it once and see."
Although she didn't know what I was doing, Pandora still obediently said that the number she wanted to throw was 6 points, and then she threw out the sex piece. The big colored stone, which was as big as a toy Rubik's Cube, bounced on the ground a few times and the last number it turned up was 4. Pandora looked at me after seeing the number, but I didn't pick up the color, just asked her to repeat it a few more times.
Pandora played a few more times as I told her, and each time she first said the number she wanted to throw, and then threw the color. It was thrown twenty times in total, and the numbers thrown out three times were consistent with the numbers mentioned before. It can be said that this probability is already quite high, which means that Pandora's luck value may be higher than the average of normal people.
After doing this, I asked Ares to repeat the same process, except that I asked him to play fifty times in one breath, and the result was that all fifty times were wrong, and none of the numbers thrown out could tell him. The numbers match up.
Seeing Ares about to go berserk because he couldn't throw the number he said, I quickly snatched back the color and said, "You saw it. With the same color, Pandora can occasionally hit the target when she throws it. , this is her luck, but your hit rate is zero. In other words, what you want in your heart is 100% impossible to achieve. Of course, our little experiment is not scientific, but it at least reflects from the side It’s your lucky value that may be a negative number.”
Ares said dejectedly: "I know I'm unlucky, can you stop irritating me?"
I smiled and nodded: "Okay, I won't irritate you anymore. I will give you motivation now." I said and gestured to Ruyi, and then Ruyi immediately twisted her fat ass and climbed to Pandora's side, and then She stretched out her front paws towards Pandora. Pandora bent down knowingly, and Ruyi immediately touched his forehead with Pandora's forehead.
After Ruyi finished doing it, I handed the color to Pandora again and said, "Try throwing it ten more times. It's still the same way."
Pandora seemed to understand something. She quickly reported a number and threw out the color. Then when the color stopped, it happened to be the number she said. Repeated this ten times, the result was perfect, and all the numbers reported ten times were the numbers she said.
In Ares's surprised eyes, I handed the sesame to him again, and then said: "You can try it too." After I said that auspiciously, I ran over and did the same thing to Ares. When the foreheads of Jixiang and Ares separated, Ares immediately tried to say a number excitedly, and then threw the 'color' piece. As a result, the lechon didn't know what was going on. It seemed to be possessed by an evil spirit and actually spun on the ground like a top for more than a minute without any intention of falling down.
Seeing the crazy lust, Ares was just nervous, Pandora was a little confused, but Jixiang, Ruyi, I were shocked. I never thought that Ares' bad luck could be so strong. The trick that was just used for good luck and good luck is called Lucky Blessing, which means that the person whose forehead touches them will receive lucky protection for a day, and anyone who is blessed within the validity period will be super lucky. Normal attacks almost always deal the maximum damage, skill attacks often double the effect, and killing boss monsters guarantees a 100% chance of getting good equipment. Anyway, everything related to luck will be great. If it weren't for the fact that the skills of good luck and good luck have a limit on how many times they can be used per day, I would have wanted everyone in the guild to come and receive blessings every day.
However, although this skill has a limit on the number of times it can be used, its effect is really awesome. I have tried it several times before, and it has incredible properties. Especially when facing long-range attacks, you can almost swagger through the rain of arrows without being 'shot' by any arrow. Of course, this kind of heaven-defying attribute cannot be used casually. Just like other benefits in our guild, the ability of good luck and good fortune will be clearly marked with a price every day for members to redeem with their guild contribution points. Generally, members of our guild will choose to raise funds when fighting a boss and let the person in charge of damage output in the team redeem it once. In this way, if he completes the final blow, he will definitely be able to explode a bunch of good things, which is definitely worth the contribution value. .
It is precisely because I understand the power of this ability that I am even more shocked now. Because according to normal circumstances, Ares should now transform into a lucky superman and throw out whatever numbers he wants. However, the actual result is that the sex keeps spinning. What does this mean? This shows that the lucky blessing that Ji Xiang just used is fighting against Ares's own bad luck, and it seems that the two are currently evenly matched, so that the lust can't stop at all.
Seeing that the woman had no intention of stopping, I carefully moved to Pandora and asked in a low voice: "Is there any bad god in your Olympus clan?"
"Shen Shen?"
"It's about taking care of bad luck." I said while pointing at Ares.
Pandora immediately opened her mouth as if suddenly enlightened. "We don't seem to have any gods who specialize in this, but there are several gods with somewhat similar abilities. For example, the Goddess of Doom, the Three Goddess of Fate, the Goddess of Vengeance and the Goddess of Victory all have similar abilities."
"Then has Ares offended one or more of them?"
Pandora thought for a while and then said: "It seems that Ares doesn't have a good relationship with them." At this point, she mysteriously whispered into my ear: "Actually, Ares He has a very bad relationship with all the women of the Olympus Protoss. It is said that it is because he is a bit chauvinistic and looks down on women, so the goddesses of the entire Olympus Protoss are at odds with her. "
I broke into a cold sweat when I heard what Pandora said. I said, how could this guy Ares be so bad? I've been working on it for a long time. Here's the problem! But I had just promised to give hope to Ares, so I had to let the auspiciousness pass and wasted another precious blessing. If both blessings take effect at the same time, the result will be different. Almost as soon as the auspicious second blessing was completed, the sex bird stopped immediately, and the number displayed was exactly the number Ares reported before. The excited Ares immediately threw himself on the sex and cried loudly. I was confused and didn't know which nerve in him was short-circuited again.
Rhadamantis explained to me in a low voice beside him. "Don't blame him. You also know that us male gods sometimes like to get together and gamble when we have nothing to do. That guy Ares is particularly good at this, but his luck...he has never won anyway. . This should be the first time in his life that he has successfully guessed the number of points he will throw in advance. This is a record-breaking thing for Ares."
"I asked him why he was so excited."
Ares, who had been crying for a long time while holding his son, didn't remember to check whether it was just an accident a few minutes later, so he threw it several times in a row, and each time he could quickly throw it out. number. After throwing it ten times in a row, the guy immediately threw himself at Jixiang's feet with snot and tears, hugged Jixiang's hairy legs, cried and said that he would hang out with Jixiang from now on, and Jixiang asked him to go up the mountain of swords. He didn't even blink at the Living Sea.
Looking at Ares who was crying, I couldn't help but look at Pandora and Rhadamantis and asked: "Why are you Olympians so unruly?"
Rhadamantis immediately swore that Ares was a special case, and other Olympus protoss, especially the Olympus protoss of their Pluto line, were absolutely not like this.
I was talking to Radamantis, and Jixiang saw that I didn't pay attention to him. He immediately 'touched' a notice board with a stick underneath from behind, and then saw him quickly write a paragraph on it. He spoke and raised the sign in front of Ares. Ares stupidly looked at the words on the sign and muttered in a low voice: "Listen, there is a kind of Hydra there. I want to eat snake soup. You go and catch it for me, and I will take care of you from now on."
Ares immediately said in surprise after reading the notice: "But Hydra is a creature of the Pluto family. If I capture him, Hades will definitely not let me go!"
After hearing this, Ji Xiang quickly erased the words on the sign, wrote it in a new row, and stood it up again. Ares read as usual: "Then catch the Minotaur who likes to live in the maze. Beef should be good too."
As soon as he finished reading, Ares immediately said: "His name is the Minotaur, not the Minotaur. And he doesn't like to live in the labyrinth. The labyrinth is used to seal him. And he The meat on your body is not beef, and I don’t know if it tastes good or not!”
After hearing this, Ji Xiang wanted to write more, but suddenly he felt a murderous aura coming from behind him. He quickly threw the sign away, then whistled and walked toward the door pretending to be nonchalant. However, although his upper body was posed quite like that, his short legs below were still pulling at the sign, trying to take the thing away with him.
I almost got mad at this guy. He threatened in a serious voice: "Don't you want to lose weight again?"
As soon as he heard my warning, Jixiang Lima rushed back and hugged my thigh, trying desperately to act pitiful. Finally, he held up his special sign and wrote a bunch of flattery on it. With his solemn assurance, I finally did not punish him. Of course, it was not because his flattery was perfect, but because I just wanted to scare him. After all, the two pandas Ji Xiang and Ruyi are so cute. If I rape them, the girls in the guild will definitely go berserk and rape me. So for my own safety, I Don't dare to touch them easily.
After reaching an agreement with Ares and Pandora, the Saints they belonged to also immediately switched sides. Originally, the Saints of the Olympus Protoss were not the regular army of the Protoss, but a kind of existence similar to private soldiers or retainers in ancient China. These Saints are not so much members of the Olympus Protoss as they are the personal guards of these Protoss. It is precisely because of this that the Saints joined our forces without hesitation after the gods nodded.
Although several people here have agreed to join our force, I can't let them out yet. If the Gods want to change jobs, they can't just say it. If they can't get out the soul seeds stored in the source of their faith, then once the main god of the tribe knows that they have betrayed, the other party only needs to crush the soul seeds. It can cause the corresponding protoss to be seriously injured, severely damaged in strength, or even killed directly. Therefore, I must not let them be 'exposed' outside until I have solved the affairs of the Olympus protoss and got out the seeds of their divine power. face.
After arranging things on Pandora's side, I quickly left the City of Commandments and started helping Mother Earth run the World Tree. I chose the Sky Tree as my first target. Maybe it was because of my luck. This tree happened to be located not far from Essinger. It only took me ten minutes to find this tree growing on a floating island. big tree.
There is no obvious difference between the Sky Tree itself and ordinary trees. If you have to say that it looks different from ordinary trees, it may be that its size is a bit large. Just like the world-famous natural tree in South America, this sky tree is also very exaggerated. From a distance, it looks like a flying castle in the sky.
"What a big tree!" Linglong immediately exclaimed in admiration when she saw the Sky Tree from a distance. However, just as her voice of admiration ended, we were suddenly blocked by an invisible wall. Fortunately, we were flying by ourselves and not riding birds, otherwise we would have knocked ourselves unconscious if we had hit each other like this. But even at our own flying speed, this hit us quite hard. "Why is there a protective shield in this place?" Linglong complained immediately after finally recovering from the dizziness.
I summoned Xiaochun to help her treat the bruises on her face and earn two more points of loyalty. Then I pointed to the tree in front of me and said, "Other than it, what else would put up protection here?" Enchantment?"
"But it protects everything around it in a protective shield. How are we going to get in?"
"This problem is the least of the problems." I said and took out the young world tree that Mother Earth gave me, and then reached out again to 'touch' the protective shield we just hit. As expected. When I held the World Tree seedling, the protective shield seemed to be completely non-existent and allowed me to get in smoothly.
When we successfully set foot on the floating island where the Sky Tree grew, we realized that this floating island was not as small as we thought before. In fact, the reason why I thought it was small before was entirely because the Sky Tree was so big. Because the size of the Sky Tree is too huge compared to the floating island, looking at it from a distance, it feels like a Christmas tree planted in a flower pot. The tree body is not even bigger than the flower pot. It is so many times bigger that we all feel that the floating island used as a carrier is too small. However, once we actually set foot on it, this idea immediately disappeared. Looking at the giant tree like a skyscraper and the huge grass field at the foot that can hold more than a dozen football matches at the same time, no one will think that this place is small anymore.
"How many years has it been? I didn't expect to see the messenger of Mother Earth again." As soon as we set foot on the floating island, we immediately heard a deafening voice above our heads. I could feel my heart trembling from the sound.
"Excuse me. Are you the Sky Tree?"
"Hahahaha... Isn't the tree that grows in the sky the tree of the sky? Don't worry, children, you have not found the wrong target. The Mother of the Earth should have asked you to extract the traces of the world, right? Come on, take that little tree The Lord of the World takes it out and puts it on my roots." Following the words of the Sky Tree, a large piece of ground suddenly rose up under our feet, and then a tree root as thick as a cross-sea tunnel came with a loud rumbling sound. Tumbled out from under the ground.
I carefully placed the World Tree sapling on the root of the tree, and then I saw a sudden flash on the Sky Tree. A layer of fluorescence suddenly gathered from all over the World Tree's body, and then flowed together to the young World Tree. seedling. In just a moment, we saw the seedling burst into dazzling brilliance, as if it was not a tree but a tree-shaped light bulb with a thousand watts. Fortunately, this luminous phenomenon is not permanent. After the flash, the brightness of the World Tree seedlings began to slowly decrease, until finally it completely returned to its normal non-luminous state.
"Okay, my mission here has been completed. You can take the little guy and leave now." Surprisingly, Sky Tree completed his work in just a few seconds. However, just when I took back the World Tree sapling and prepared to leave, the Sky Tree suddenly shook its body and said, "Oh, I almost forgot. In addition to the Trace of the World, I should also give it to the Messenger of the Mother of the Earth." A little reward." As he spoke, he suddenly used the thick tree root from before to roll out a giant olive-shaped crystal that was five or six meters high from a small hole that suddenly opened in the center of the tree. "Take it away, kid, this is your reward."
"Excuse me, what is this?"
I took the crystal and studied it while asking casually. Unexpectedly, Sky Tree answered directly without any concealment: "Oh, this is my excrement."
When I heard what the Sky Tree said, I almost threw the crystal out, but considering that it was the Sky Tree, the excrement it produced was completely different from the excrement of animals. Besides, this thing must be valuable as a reward, so in the end I was reluctant to throw it away.
"What, I don't want to ask the specific origin of this, I just want to know the purpose of this thing."
Sky Tree suddenly laughed. "Hahahaha, it's just a joke, I want to scare you. That's not my excrement, and trees don't produce any excrement. It's a crystal naturally condensed in my body, for you This one takes ten thousand years to take shape. Its function is to shield gravity. As long as you put a little magic into it, it can turn the surrounding area into an absolute zero-gravity state. You can use it to make aircraft Or something else, it has a lot of uses anyway.”
"What, can this thing be disassembled and used?"
"Even if you grind it into powder, it can still be used. But you have to find a way to deal with the flow of magic power. It will not create a gravity barrier when there is no magic power."
"I understand. Then I will accept this gift. I have to find the other five World Trees, so I won't disturb you."
"I really hope you can come and bother me often. It's really lonely floating here alone."
When I heard Sky Tree's words, my originally opened wings closed again. "Um, are you saying polite words? Or do you really want someone to chat with you?"
"Of course it's true. If you were to float alone in the sky for ten thousand years, how would you feel?"
I have no intention of guessing what Sky Tree is thinking. All I care about is his protective shield. When I just hit the protective shield, I already discovered that the protective shield of the Sky Tree seems to be not comparable to ordinary protective moves. Its defensive power is the second most powerful among the various defensive energies I have seen so far. The only protective energy I have seen that surpasses it before is the absolute defense of me and Jingjing. However, the absolute defense has a time limit, but the protective shield of the Sky Tree can always be open. Moreover, the Sky Tree itself grows on a floating island. If the ground of this floating island is transformed into a city, then we can use the protective cover of the Sky Tree to make it an unsinkable air carrier. Of course, whether this island can be converted into a weapon of war depends on the intention of the Sky Tree.
After some exchanges, Sky Tree immediately agreed to my proposal to transform the floating island, but Sky Tree did not let me change it into a weapons platform. However, he can accept turning this place into an observation base. Anyway, the floating island can fly everywhere, and the Sky Tree can also control the wind to drive the floating island to move at high speed. Even if it cannot be equipped with weapons and turned into a mobile turret, It is quite good to use it as a transport aircraft and a reconnaissance vehicle.
After discussing the general plan for building the city with Sky Tree, I left all the subsequent tasks to the people in the guild to handle it. As the boss, I only need to be responsible for the direction and negotiation. Someone will naturally calculate the specific details. No need for me to do everything myself.
After leaving the Sky Tree, my next destination is the Earth Tree. Easier to find than the Sky Tree, the Earth Tree grows directly on the top of a barren mountain, and the tree is entirely made of stone, with no green color at all. After I took out the juvenile World Tree, the Earth Tree immediately completed the task of delivering the trace of the world, and then left a prize for me according to the rules of Mother Earth. However, compared with the previous anti-gravity crystal, the Earth Tree left The fine gold you put down seems less valuable.
"Where should we go next?" Linglong asked after leaving the Tree of Earth.
I didn't answer Linglong's words, but asked instead: "Can you come to my training space to stay with Ling and the others for a while?"
"Why?"
