Chapter 1540: The Dead Star
Once upon a time, there was a beautiful planet covered by countless natural trees, flowers and plants, Star X.
This beautiful planet is very young and has great potential, and after 100 million years of birth, it gave birth to its own native life.
Djinn Tree.
Trees have a spirit and are a family of their own.
From the moment they receive their spiritual wisdom, they are eager to learn all the knowledge they come into contact with, to understand the world they are in, to understand the universe outside, and then to spread the knowledge to the whole race through their connected hearts.
It only takes one person to learn something, so that all the nearby Djinn trees can learn knowledge.
And the first giant spirit tree to give birth to spiritual wisdom and become their leader: the arbor master, can pass on their wisdom in the form of photons to the young saplings through photosynthesis.
Needless to say, nine years of compulsory education, even if it is a hundred years of compulsory education, one night is enough for them.
This unique way of growing up makes them take tens of thousands of years of detours compared to other races, and the speed of development is as fast as riding a rocket.
And it also stimulated them to give birth to two racial talents of their own.
The first is a power derived from the way it grows: psychic perception, but this ability can usually only be used within the clan, and only the Djinn Tree, which is old enough and strong enough, can manipulate this power into the minds of foreign clans.
The second is the skill that any world of Treants can have: controlling flowers and trees.
It can be as small as a flower, and as large as a forest on the ground.
Of course, the strength of this power is also related to age, and there are some giant spirit trees that have survived since the birth of the giant spirit tree, and are basically in the same batch as the arbor master, and later became elders, and it can be said that they can be able to control this kind of power.
However, the large-scale use of this attack ability will destroy the activity of the land and the landform.
They don't know earth and stone magic, and trees can manipulate restoration, but not land, and land is tantamount to one of the sources of life for them, so this ability is rarely used.
In addition, maybe it's the fairyland-like grass and trees here, or maybe their hearts are connected to each other, and they don't have the biggest characteristic of other races, selfishness, so they yearn for peace, and the entire giant spirit tree society is also calm and serene.
Even after a thousand years, when they are technologically advanced enough to step into space and successfully contact other planetary races, they will continue to survive in this form.
At first, they were also lucky, they did not encounter a powerful invading empire, and the reception of those planetary forces of peaceful diplomacy was also very smooth.
Here, you can see the most complete and beautiful flower fields in the universe.
Here, you can breathe the most refreshing spiritual oxygen in the universe.
Some will also carry gifts, ask for some tree people, and comfort their consciousness with psychic powers.
This feeling is a bit like a spiritual therapy, which will make you feel good after doing it, but the downside is that your thoughts may be exposed to the Djinn Tree.
Careful people can't do stupid things, but for those who need solace in their hearts, this planet is perfect.
Special tip 1: If you want to sleep in a clean field and looking at the starry sky overhead, no problem, but don't forget, the trees around you have eyes, so be careful with your privacy.
Special Tip 2: Don't worry about starving to death in the wild, X-Star has hundreds of edible and delicious wild fruits and delicious nuts, and the Djinn Tree hates poison.
In short, over time, it has become a mecca for tourists.
Many tourists who have troubles and want to find a temporary respite come here to relax.
Later, the Djinn Trees were known as the Colossius of the Flower Gods.
They're Groot.
The story is very good, but it doesn't conform to reality at all!"
Rocket Raccoon looked up at the drowsy sky overhead, then at the bone-dry trees around him, and finally looked down and picked up a handful of dirt from the ground.
"This place seems to be the exact opposite of what you say, like a dead star. ”
"I'm Groot. ”
Groot bowed his head sadly, walked over to a dead tree next to him, and stretched out his palm to touch the dead wood.
If the other party survives, even if it is very weak, Groot can feel the breath of life in his body.
But now, all Groot could feel was a dead silence.
And thanks to the power of the ancient deer head spirit, this sense of dead silence has also become a form of energy that can be perceived, so that Groot can clearly feel that it is gone.
Gamora walked up to Groot and patted him on the shoulder as a comforting gesture.
Quill sighed, scanning his surroundings back and forth.
It's been half a day since they entered the X-star.
When they first entered the X-star, they planned to drive the spaceship to look for it, but they were attacked by several huge wooden thorns like steel, and the spaceship was pierced through two large holes, but fortunately, the engine was not damaged, and the rocket was sure to repair the spaceship.
But the key now is that they don't know who attacked them at all, and it is obviously not a wise choice to take off the spaceship again.
But at that time, they received a communication from Nebula Nebra that they wanted to come to them, and then went to Saka together to find the Dragon King, telling him that Thanos had started the operation again.
(After the Sandar suits, Nebula's relationship with them has eased somewhat.) )
So they left Drax the Destroyer to guard the ship and wait to join the Nebula, while Quill, Groot, Gamora, and Rocket set out on a path to find the source of life for the Colossus of Flowers.
But along the way, I passed through a large field that had become a corrupted place, and came to this endless forest of dead trees, and I didn't see a single green leaf.
What are you kidding, and you don't know that there's an enemy waiting to move in that dark corner.
If it weren't for Groot's life and death, Quill wouldn't want to stay in this place.
"Groot, are you sure you still know the road?"
Gamora looked at her surroundings and agreed, "Yes, Groot, it's not an option, we can't act aimlessly. ”
"That's right, it will be even darker after a while, and the only advantage here is that there is no shortage of firewood. ”
"I am, Groot. Groot shook his head when he heard Rocket say this.
"Why can't it be used? It's all dead wood. ”
"I'm Groot. ”
"Okay, okay, it's really not good to use the corpse as firewood...... But you should be more worried about Drax, this idiot may have already done this. ”
"Alright, don't talk about that, let's keep walking, and, be careful, this forest is a little weird, maybe the person who attacked us just now is here. ”
With that, Quill took the lead and continued walking.
Although the wind was gusting along the way, it was unexpectedly calm, and no danger appeared until they walked out of the dry forest.
"What the hell is this place......
