Volume 19 Chapter 168 A Ruins?

Ghost-hand Nobunaga, who almost went berserk after being scolded by me, looked at me angrily and held it in for a long time. His hand was always pressed on the handle of the knife, as if he was planning to use the knife at any time. However, what finally surprised me was this The guy suddenly pulled the knife that had been pulled out an inch and brought it back to its original position. Then he suddenly turned around and greeted the people around him bitterly: "Let's go."

Looking at Nobunaga, who really left, I was stunned for a long time, and then my brows furrowed into a "Sichuan" shape.

If I were a aggressive and aggressive boy, I would be happy for my opponent to give in, because that means I have defeated my opponent. But the problem is that although I have just passed the teenage stage, my experience has determined that I cannot be as innocent as ordinary people, so Nobunaga's concession will not make me happy. On the contrary, his retreat made me feel quite uneasy.

An impulsive opponent is not terrible, because they will always break out rashly before they are ready. Although this can gain a certain advantage through the effect of a surprise attack, lack of preparation means lack of preparation, and the final victory will never belong to you. That kind of people. The previous Ghost Hand Nobunaga has always been such a person, so in his battles with our guild, they always attacked first, but we won every time. However, the current Ghost Hand Nobunaga actually endured this breath, which means that he has begun to grow. The impulsive Nobunaga began to learn to calm down and learn to think first and act later. This is definitely not good news for us. However, at least for the time being, we don’t have to worry too much. After all, the current leader of the *** is our super spy Matsumoto Masaga. Nobunaga, who has almost no power left, will not be able to do anything in a short time even if he grows up. There's a big storm, so as long as I send more people to keep an eye on him, there shouldn't be any problems. I don’t even need to find someone from my own profession to keep an eye on Nobunaga. I just need to ask Masamoto Matsumoto to send someone. Anyway, he is now our remote control to control *** players. He is ready-made Why waste our human resources when our resources are not used?

Looking at the ghost-hand Nobunaga leaving, I didn't pay much attention. I used the communicator to contact the military god to arrange the matter, and then I put away the night shadow and landed directly on the solid ground.

At the foot of the Tree of Nature, there is a large piece of solid ground that is significantly higher than the surrounding ground. Because too many roots of the Tree of Nature have been forced into the land below, the ground has been significantly raised, and due to the squeezing effect, The soil here has also become firmer than in ordinary places.

After I successfully stood on land, I didn't care about the attention of the people around me. I just kicked off the ground and flapped my wings twice, landing directly on the thickest branch at the bottom of the tree of nature. Then I lightly touched the branch with my toes. At one point, he immediately took another leap and continued upwards, disappearing from the eyes of the people below in a few seconds.

Although this natural tree is an important tourist attraction, what is really open to everyone is only the open space under the tree and the root labyrinth leading from the passage in the center of the trunk to the ground. The upper crown part belongs to the combat area. Visitors must be prepared for battle if they confirm that they want to go up. Moreover, even if you are prepared, most people can only go up to the first and second levels of branches. Only some elven players or people with special attributes or those who have received related tasks can go up to the upper parts. And the higher you go, the fewer people there are.

I jumped back and forth between the tree canopies at an astonishing speed. After all, in addition to my legs, I also had wings. Although I said I was jumping up, I was actually flying, so my speed was naturally very fast. However, just after I jumped more than a dozen levels of branches, I landed on a huge branch with a diameter of five meters. Before I could use my strength to jump, I suddenly saw a light bomb flying towards me.

Generally, when an enemy shoots magic or something at me, I can dodge it in advance with my reflexes, but the light bomb in front of me was obviously fired before I flew up, and I appeared. The moment it was on the branch, the magic missile happened to reach the branch. It was like I was hitting the magic missile myself. At this relative speed, I couldn't dodge even if I reacted quickly!

When I found the light bullet, it came in front of me. Seeing that I had no time to dodge, I could only cross my arms in front of me to protect myself. Fortunately, the front ends of the arms of the Shenlong suit are very bulky due to the installation of too many mechanisms. After crossing the arms, they can basically be used as shields.

I just heard a bang and the light bomb exploded violently the moment it hit my arm. I felt a huge force coming from both arms, and then the whole person was pushed away by the shock wave. However, as soon as I flew away from the tree trunk, I felt a tightness in my waist. A rattan suddenly wrapped around my waist, and then lifted me up with a sudden pull. Because I didn't feel the intention to attack, I didn't resist, but before I was pulled up, I took the time to look at the person who attacked or accidentally injured me.

He was a very ordinary-looking local young man with almost no features at all. He was the type that would be completely forgotten in thirty seconds if thrown into a crowd. However, there were several people standing on the branches near him. I recognized all of that group of people, because those people were actually Ashford's personal guards.

Although I am very curious as to why the Iron Crusaders surrounded a local boy here, I have no time to mind my own business right now. Besides, it seems that the Iron Crusaders are bullying others. As an ally, even if I show up there, I won't be able to help the young man deal with the Iron Crusaders. Instead, I might get the reputation of bullying the weak. I'm too lazy to do such a thankless job. Watching the fun also depends on the situation.

With the traction of the rattan, my ascent speed was many times faster, and soon I was pulled into the densest part of the canopy. The branches here are so densely crisscrossed that it is almost impossible to walk. Fortunately, as I got closer, the surrounding branches took the initiative to give way, and eventually I was pulled into a hole in the trunk by the rattan.

As soon as I entered the cave, I immediately felt my eyes light up, and then I found a green, hedgehog-like ball of light floating about two meters away from the bottom of the cave, emanating from it. The energy fluctuations in the circle will even cause the surrounding air to generate buzzing sounds.

"I didn't expect you to be responsible for this task." The Tree of Nature may also be a little surprised by my appearance. After all, this is not my first time here, and as the most famous one among the World Trees, the Tree of Nature is very interested in me. The player community knows far more than the other trees, so he knows very well who I am.

I smiled and handed the seedling over and said, "I am a human being too. Mother Earth's mission is so rewarding, how can I not accept it?"

Seeing the seedling I handed over, countless green vines immediately stretched out from the green light in the air like tentacles and rolled the seedling in, and then the light ball flashed and continued. : "It takes an hour to fill. If you feel impatient to wait, you can go down and have fun first, or you can help me invite those annoying guys down just now. They beat me back and forth, but not many of them died. It’s so big that there are holes all over my body!”

"It's not a big deal, I know those people, just go down and ask for favors." I said and ran out of the cave, then jumped in.

Although there was no help from the rattan when I went down, the speed of falling was already fast, and the natural trees would actively move the branches that were blocking the way, so I almost fell in a free fall motion. Within a few seconds, I hit a thicker branch with a thud.

My sudden appearance shocked everyone present, but their expressions changed after they saw clearly that it was me. Ashford's gang of men were relieved to see that it was me. After all, they were an alliance guild. At least they weren't worried that I would help their enemies. As for the young man, he feels a little guilty and a little nervous now. The guilt was probably due to the accidental injury to me just now, and the nervousness was naturally due to the fear that I would come back for revenge. However, as soon as I spoke, his guilt disappeared and was replaced by deep worry.

"Hey...why did you guys come to this place if you didn't follow Ashford in Europe?"

As Ashford's personal guard, these people naturally know me. One of the guys heard my words and immediately said respectfully: "The president received information that a secret ruins were discovered in South America, which may contain prehistoric technology, so he brought us here to investigate."

"Then what? Why did you separate from Ashford?"

When I asked this, the group of people immediately glared at the young man angrily and said, "It's all this idiot native's fault. We had already found the entrance to the ruins, but because we didn't buy his so-called map, this guy took the ruins' entrance." The agency has been activated. The president has already hung up!"

"What? Ashford hangs back? This kid is really unlucky! But if you don't go back to pick up Ashford, why are you hanging around him here?"

"That's right. The mechanisms in that ruins are very powerful. We think that even if the president comes back, we still have to go in. If we don't know how to solve the mechanisms, we have to go back. So we want him to turn off the mechanisms."

I nodded and said: "Your idea is good, but can you do me a favor and move to another place?" Seeing the confused look in the other person's eyes, I had to say directly: "This world tree is alive, he has feelings. . I just went up to find the soul of the World Tree to do a mission. When you fought with him, you always accidentally injured his branches, which made him very angry. So I was sent down to help him get you away. So..."

Upon hearing my words, the other party immediately said with a sad face: "President Ziri, it's not that we don't give you face, it's that we can't help it! In fact, we don't want to fight here! But that guy is just a monkey, He is so agile in this tree that we can't hit him at all, and he has injured several people before. If we could get him down from the tree, we would have got him out long ago. As long as we get to the ground, we The Teutonic warrior feared no enemy."

"That's it!" I said, turning my eyes to the young man, and then said: "Then I have to trouble you. Do you want to go down by yourself or should I ask you to go down?"

"Hmph, none of you foreigners are good." The young man said and suddenly turned around and burrowed into the densely packed branches, hoping to cause trouble for our pursuit, but he ignored one problem.

I have said before that I came down to help World Tree drive away people, which means that World Tree is with me, and he actually wants to use the branches of World Tree to resist us. This is not because he is unhappy. ?

Sure enough, the guy jumped up suddenly and was about to hook a branch and jump up. Who knew that just when he was about to touch the branch, the branch suddenly moved upwards by more than one meter. As a result, The guy grabbed horizontally and vertically in the air but still couldn't catch it, and his body fell directly downwards. Although the guy was stunned when he realized that he hadn't caught the tree trunk, he didn't panic. After all, there are branches everywhere here. Even if you don't catch one, you can just catch the others. So he quickly reacted and looked down to find a place to stay. As a result, before he could start, he found that all the branches under his feet had automatically moved away from the direction of his fall, revealing a large blank area.

After finding nowhere to stay, the guy didn't despair. He suddenly pulled out a whip from behind and swung it forward. The tip of the whip wrapped around a branch, allowing him to easily swing out. However, just when he was about to 'swing' to a branch with the help of a whip, I suddenly appeared one step ahead of him at the place where he was about to land. Then I raised my hand and flicked it, a flash of silver light flashed, and in the guy's hand The whip broke instantly, and then the guy fell straight down the trunk of the tree. However, he did not fall all the way down, but fell on a branch that was not moved away. Although World Tree can move, he is still a tree after all, and his speed cannot be too fast. The guy who swings over like this will definitely not be able to get out of the way of World Tree.

After successfully landing, although the guy fell quite awkwardly, he did not sit still and wait for death. Instead, he quickly rolled to remove the impact and immediately jumped up and ran towards the roots of the branches. He has now discovered that World Tree is helping us, but he also knows the weaknesses of World Tree. Suppose you put a pet cat on your head and then grab a fish in your hand to lure it. You can move your hand quickly to prevent the cat from jumping to your hand accurately, but if the fish is on your shoulder, then you are completely helpless, because your shoulder is fixed to your body, no matter what you do, Twist, the shoulder also has a fairly limited range of motion for your head. The same is true for Yggdrasil. Its branches can be moved at will to prevent the young man from touching it, but the part where its branches connect to the trunk is fixed. It is impossible to move in this place.

Watching the guy run toward the root of the branch, I immediately knew his intention, but I wasn't worried about it because he was suddenly blocked by a beautiful figure just halfway through. But when he saw the lower part of the beautiful figure, he was so frightened that he rolled back.

I have to say that Yeyue's snake tail is really convenient. Even though she has no legs, she is even stronger than most of my ground magic pets in terms of athletic ability. First of all, she can swim very quickly on the ground. She can also reach a very high position by adjusting the proportion of the erected part of her body. She can even use the change of support points to easily swim on rough roads and even rocks. She ran at the ultimate speed in the pile, and now, with her tail wrapped around the branches, she was even faster. The young man who was jumping up and down like a monkey before was completely suppressed by her in speed. The two were simply not on the same level. .

After the young man changed nine branches in a row and was blocked, he finally realized that he could not outrun the strangely beautiful monster with a snake tail in front of him. In fact, he has always regarded Yeyue as a kind of terrifying wild monster in his heart. Although there are legends about Yeyue and other creatures in European and Asian mythology, and most people who know me are not familiar with Yeyue, my main character. He has a deep understanding of combat power, but the young man in front of him happens to be the type who has little information and a low level of education. He has never heard of the legends about races like Yeyue, and he has no idea who I am. In fact, when he still ran away after I spoke, I knew that he must not know me. Otherwise, it would be hard for me to imagine that a person with such a low level as him could think of running away after having contact with me. If he was a slightly higher level, or if there was more than just him, resistance would be understandable. But he is only one person, and I obviously have the right time, location, and people. In this case, it would be a ghost if he could run away.

"Why didn't you run away?" After the guy was blocked for the ninth time, I quickly fell behind him and Yeyue sandwiched him in the middle, while the nearby branches were full of people. As for Ashford's personal guards, even if he jumps down now, he will definitely be entangled by one of Ashford's personal guards, and there is no possibility of running away.

"Don't come over here." The guy pointed his sword at me nervously and threatened.

Oh, after he finished shouting, I took out the Eternal sword and swung it like lightning, and then took it back. After a second, I heard a "dang" sound, and the guy's sword suddenly broke at the root, leaving only the hilt. Holding it in his hand.

"Your weapons seem to be of very poor quality!"

"You...what did you do to my sword?"

"It's nothing, it's just a touch. But if you don't cooperate, I don't mind touching your limbs again with my sword."

"Hmph, I know you want me to help you disarm the trap. But I tell you, if you don't buy my map, I will never help you even if I die."

"How much does your map cost?"

"Five..." The guy was about to shout, but suddenly paused, and then said: "Including the compensation for the attack on me, it will cost a total of five hundred crystal coins."

Wow, I threw a bag of crystal coins directly into his hand. "What now?"

The guy hurriedly opened the bag and looked at it, then excitedly threw a rolled piece of bark and said: "The opening and closing methods of the mechanism are marked on the map. Couldn't you have bought them earlier and nothing would happen?"

Looking at the Ashford Guards with black lines on their faces, I handed the map to them in a funny way, and then said: "Don't be sad, rigidity is both a shortcoming and an advantage of the Germans. You can't expect yourself to be a perfect superman, right?" ?”
