I said a few humble words to him, and I thought that this fat man had a good mentality.

It is estimated that seeing that the wound on his back is too serious, the old turtle also said: "Xiao Zhu, go back quickly, take care of the injuries on your body, and rest for a few days, by the way, don't mess around with those girls during this time, take care of your body." ”

The fat man Xiao Zhu smiled, bent down and saluted the old turtle: "Don't worry Uncle Turtle, Xiao Zhu, I am a minor injury, just wait until I go back and eat a fruit, it is completely a little KS!"

After saying this, he saluted me and Wen Ru again: "Okay, this evil ghost brother, and this curly-haired brother, Xiao Zhu, I will go first, let's get together if it's okay in the future, I live on the thirteenth floor of the Divine Tree, and it is estimated that I am not far from you, this time we can be regarded as not knowing each other, and we can be good friends in the future." ”

Since the attitude of the people is so sincere, I had to talk to him for a few words, and after finishing speaking, Xiao Zhu said goodbye and left, at this time, the corpses of the demigods on the ground had been almost cleaned up, and the other savages also returned to the original way in an endless stream.

Wen Ru looked at Xiao Zhu's distant back, and suddenly smiled: "This fat man seems to be quite interesting!"

I couldn't help but ask the old turtle, "Why do you have so many divine power fruits? Also, are the fruits in the pyramid also provided by you?"

The old turtle shook his head: "Demigod, you are wrong, we don't have many holy fruits on hand, every time before the transformation, we have to ask the tree god to declare to the temple, and then the people of the temple will send the number and category of the holy fruits we need to the holy orchard, and then the people from the orchard will send someone to send us over, and every time we use the fruit, there will be a detailed record, these are strictly regulated." ”

Hearing him say this, I thought of the skeletons buried in Stonehenge and the wooden spear array, as well as the holy fruits enshrined on the river beach, these are obviously related to the God Protector Clan, this mystery has been confusing me for a long time, since the old turtle is the leader of the God Protector Clan, I think I should be able to get the answer today.

I got up and walked to the carriage, this time I didn't sit with the elder, it was really awkward to sit all the way with the unsmiling fellow, I pulled the old turtle and sat in another carriage with me, so as to continue my questioning.

The carriage began to start, and under my repeated questioning, the old turtle finally told the secret of the mysterious sacrifice ceremony, the reason why they set up these sacrificial points around the island, in fact, there are two functions in it, one is to place these holy fruits in the places where those survivors appear, which is conducive to screening out the real demigods, once someone takes the holy fruits, the black skeletons buried in the rocks will have a sense of resentment.

After all, they are all eliminated demigods who were killed by the tree god, although their bodies are dead, but there are still some divine consciousness left on the skeletons, they are obsessed with and love for the holy fruit during their lifetime, and they are also full of persistence after death.

Each time the Sacred Fruit was taken, the Protectors would take the skeleton hidden there and give it to the Dryad to test, who would search for the location of the eater based on the resentful divine consciousness left by the skeleton.

If you eat the fruit and die, you will give up, but once the eater is alive, the people of the God Protector Clan will spare no effort to find him according to the clues provided by the tree god, and then arrange all kinds of troubles for them according to the instructions of the gods, and then give them a comprehensive quality assessment.

The demigods who pass the standard will be sent to the Divine Tree for transformation, and then a new round of assessment and elimination will be carried out, but this has nothing to do with them, and the higher-level screening and elimination belong to another group of people, and after several rounds of cruel screening, until the last seven are left to enter the final battle circle.

The Protectors are responsible for this part of the transformation, which is an important part of the Gods Project.

Another function is that the distribution of these sacrificial points on the island is also to pay tribute to those demigods who unfortunately died in the battle, of course, this role is also equivalent to a disguise, the real role of the sacrificial point is to lure those survivors to the bait, but what the Protector God Clan did not expect is that their fruit has attracted the attention of some people in the outside world, and among these people there are big guys like Guo Datong.

Although I have seen and heard a lot of strange events on the island, but the old turtle still shocked me very much, the fog was finally dispelled, but the content of the fog is more intricate, as if rubbing away the thick dust on the slate and thinking that you can see the truth, but I didn't expect the picture that appeared inside is another kind of mystery.

But this mystery was finally resolved, and I was able to dispel a depression in my heart.

The carriage swayed forward, looking down at the wounds on his chest and shoulder, miraculously the wounds had healed completely, and there was not a trace of wounds on his skin.

The old turtle glanced at me, and then smiled cautiously: "I heard the elder say, demigod you want to help us defend against strong enemies here?"

I nodded, and the old turtle suddenly sighed: "Actually, you can go with the demigods, you don't need to follow this muddy water." ”

I didn't know what the old turtle was having, so I asked tentatively, "What do you mean by that?"

The old turtle cautiously lifted the curtain and glanced outside, then turned his head and said in a low voice: "Let me tell you the truth, your current degree of transformation is quite high, and the general demigods can't reach your current level, and the tree god left you because he wanted to use you to help him fight! When the time comes, if you die, it will be in vain, and he will definitely not save you." ”

I was a little dazed by his words, it is said that the old turtle is also a member of the God Protector Clan, he said this is a bit abnormal, a little bit of sowing discord, I want to see what he says: "Then what are you going to do with me?"

The old turtle glanced at me and Wen Ru, and I noticed that his eyes were a little floating: "There are some things that I shouldn't say, but I don't want you to be kept in the dark, the relationship between the elder and the tree god has been a little tense in recent years, although they seem to be harmonious on the surface, but in fact, there are already contradictions inside, especially the matter of the elder cultivating the reapers, which makes the tree god very angry, because these reapers will consume the force of the god tree, which is also harmful to the tree god's body, and the two also quarreled over this matter." “

Speaking of this, a treacherous expression appeared on the old turtle's face: "This new elder is still selected by the Tree God, it has only been a few decades, and the two have begun to have an awkward quarrel, no wonder, the Elder's predecessor was also killed in a fight with the Tree God, and I estimate that he will not live long now." “

The old turtle began to smile weirdly again: "Actually, I like this elder a lot, although he is a little eccentric and trendy, but he has a straightforward personality, and he does things informally, and in recent years, there have been a lot fewer conflicts with the border, in fact, the clansmen here like him very much, if it weren't for this, it is estimated that the tree god would have caught him a long time ago." “

The old turtle looked down at me, still with that nasty face: "Although I don't know what you said that day, but today's reaction from the elders is very fierce, I suspect that the tree god wants you to be the new elder?"

I was shocked when I heard this, I didn't expect this old guy to actually suspect this! Wen Ru smiled and said, "It's also good to let Brother Zhao be an elder, so that we can live happier." “

The old turtle's face became gloomy: "Demigod, I know you won't say it, but I guess the tree god roughly means the same, and it is because of this that I think you are in danger." “

I couldn't help but ask, "Why do you say that? What danger will I have? Isn't this the tree god covered? Where does the danger come from?"

The old turtle's face was solemn, he cautiously lifted the curtain again to look outside, and then lowered his voice and said: "If you really have this ambition, the elder will never let you go! You see, if the tree god really wants you to be an elder, this one will definitely kill you now! And with your current divine power, you are no match for his reapers, and the ironclad guards are not at all his opponents!"

"Ironclad Guards, could they be those giant warriors wearing armor?" Wen Ru couldn't help but ask the old turtle.

The old turtle nodded solemnly: "Demigod, have you ever thought about why the Fog Hidden Demigod was killed by the Iron Armor Guard at the last moment? Based on the battle situation at that time, you could obviously take down the Fog Hidden Demigod, why would the elder meddle with the mouse at that time? Have you ever thought that it was a deterrent warning from the Elder to you?"

I'll wipe it! This old turtle's analysis is really a little interesting! Wen Ru listened with a blank face: "Brother Zhao, what should we do now?"

I started to set off that kind of chaotic storm in my head again, I tried to calm myself, first of all, this old turtle is not a good thing, he and Wang Jun designed to attack the Japanese area just to join forces to get me, I absolutely can't believe his nonsense!

No matter what conflicts there are between the Tree God and the Elder, now that I have accepted the task, I have to get the job done steadily! After all, this matter involves a treasure clue!

So I pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "Then you mean to let me go quickly, and don't you get involved?"
