Walking on the white ground and looking at their own reflections, everyone only felt that this was not like a place where humans lived....

Even those so-called nobles are far from the environment here!

"Ivan, these woods feel like stones!" Revo banged on the wall. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

It feels like a stone to the touch and even looks at it, but when you hit it, it makes a "pop" sound like wood.

Nami casually took out a gem and touched the wall with her other hand, rubbing it carefully for a while, "Really, it's exactly the same as the touch of a gem!" ”

"This must be a special species of tree! Otherwise, I wouldn't have made it paper! Ivan replied seriously.

"Ivan!" Leo jumped onto Ivan's shoulder, looking very serious.

"What's wrong?" Ivan stopped, and everyone looked at Leo suspiciously.

Leo said solemnly: "I feel it, this big tree is still alive!" ”

"Still alive?" Violet was sure, "It's impossible, I see it's going to dry up inside...."

"It's really alive!" Leo said with a serious face: "This tree is an impossible variety, even if it is a tree with artificial devil fruits, it is not like this, the reason why this tree looks like this is that it must be the same as everyone, it has thaumaturgy!" ”

"What do you mean.... Is this a tree that ate a Devil Fruit? Ivan exclaimed.

"That's right!" Leo said seriously: "We have inherited hundreds of years of cultivation techniques, and in my experience, you can't be wrong! ”

"This tree is really all gems!!" Nami was pressed against the wall, her eyes lit up.

"Hmm...," Ivan muttered, "It's not impossible if it's a Devil Fruit, after all, a sword can eat a Devil Fruit, and it's not a strange thing to eat a tree!" ”

"If the tree hasn't died, then the reason why this tree is like this is because the power of the Devil Fruit is still there, so it remains like this!" Evely said quietly.

"Do you know which part of the tree is still alive?" Violet wondered.

She was sure that the tree was dry everywhere.

"Bottom!" Leo said seriously: "At the bottom, the vitality of the big tree is at the bottom!" ”

"Arnold!" Ivan called out Arnold directly, "Are you sure?" ”

"Chirp~" Arnold roared, signaling that it was no problem at all.

"What did you just ask?" Nami asked suspiciously, and everyone looked puzzled.

"Hey, hey!" Ivan smiled: "Confidentiality is not okay!" ”

"No way!" The crowd shouted in unison.

"Okay~" Ivan spread his palms and said, "I want to use a clone to fuse with this tree!" In this case, this base is truly impregnable! ”

"Are you going to be a dryad...," Nami looked terrified.

She's been reading myths lately, and there's a dryad among ancient creatures.

"It's a doppelganger, a doppelganger!" Ivan shouted.

Everyone retreated to the wall in unison, their faces frightened.

"I've served you," Ivan shook his head helplessly.

"Didn't you say you didn't like to be away with the doppelganger for too long?" Nami blinked wide-eyed.

Ivan smiled: "It's okay, at Arnold's current speed, no matter where I go, I can come back in a while!" And ~~"

Ai Fan clenched his fists, looked at his fist and said, "I have a vague hunch that after all the nine clones are fused with abilities, there will be great changes!" ”

"Won't you turn into a monster or something?" Everyone wondered.

"No!" Ivan yelled frantically.

........

Eventually, Ivan was convinced and decided to go with Leo to see the last remaining seedlings of the tree.

The paper clone appeared, pressed one hand on the center of the tree, and activated the ability.

Countless pieces of paper flew out, and a pitch-black passage to the bottom appeared.

However, within ten minutes, Ivan stopped moving.

"What's wrong?" Leo wondered.

"It's hollow down there! Like ..... It's like a cave dug out from underneath! Ivan looked nervous.

"No, there will be people down there?" The crowd was shocked.

The thunder clone appeared, and after careful induction, Ai Fan smiled: "It has been inducted, and there is no reaction of bioelectric currents below!" ”

In other words, there are no creatures down there, not even the heartbeat of insects!

To be on the safe side, the door clone Leo put it directly in his pocket, and then opened the air door, and in an instant it was already at the bottom.

Syllable~

The Red Knife hilt ignited a flame that illuminated the environment.

The ground was a little damp, but it was hard, and in the hollows of the trees, there were a dozen corpses lying there, and some aging tools and stuff.

It's like a mine, surrounded by gems of all colors, and there's a lot of piling up on the ground.

Ivan took a look around and found a parchment scroll on a skeleton with a diary or something written on it.

Ivan smiled, all the gems were put away, the air door was pushed open, and when he reappeared, he was already next to Nami and the others.

Whoa~~

Pouring out all the gems piled up into a small mountain, Nami jumped straight on it with a cheer.

Ivan spread out the parchment scroll and began to examine it carefully.

It was written like a diary, and although the handwriting was a little blurry, everyone could still recognize it.

It turned out that the people below were a group of explorers who accidentally discovered this place due to a shipwreck, and stumbled upon the fact that the tree statue was made of precious stones.

Just as they were happily preparing to cut down the tree, they unexpectedly encountered a "red tide".

They fled for their lives, and ended up falling into a tree hole.

It turned out that it was all gems inside!

However, they did not dare to dig down, because there was the bottom of the sea, and they dug up, and the result was good, and they dug up a huge wealth of precious stones that they could not spend in ten lifetimes.

However, the red tide struck again, and the entrance of the mine where they fell completely blocked everyone's way, and he wrote his last words, but only half a sentence....

I regret my greed and I want .............

At this point, the diary came to an abrupt end.

"It's so scary~" After Ivan's narration was finished, Nami on the side touched her arm, which was full of goosebumps.

"What is the red tide recorded in the diary?" Xia Li was slightly puzzled.

"Is it some special natural phenomenon?" Violet wondered.

"Compared to that!" Peake, who had always been silent, spoke:

"I'd rather believe it's some kind of creature! Judging from his records, the first red tide did not catch up with them, and the second red tide directly blocked them...... Avan, is there anything unusual down there? ”

"No anomalies!" Ivan shook his head and said, "Only these gems, and some skeletons!" ”

"That's right, skeletons!" Ivan suddenly remembered something, and as he spoke, the thunderous clone had reached the point of the tree hole like light.

When they came out again, more than a dozen skeletons had been wrapped together and brought out.

Under the sun, everyone couldn't help but shiver when they looked at the skeleton in front of them.

It turned out that Ivan didn't take a closer look, but now that he looks, the skeleton bones are all fine bite marks, but some of them are too fine, and they look like they have been weathered.

"Let's sort out the rest of the stuff and take a look!" Picca picked up his worn-out clothes and cleaned up a lot of clutter.

"I'll do a divination!" Xia Li held the crystal ball, and after a while, she said seriously: "These people have only been dead for more than ten years!" ”

"More than ten years!!" The crowd was amazed.

"Maybe there are names among these people that everyone knows!" Ivan joked.

"No kidding!" Everyone shouted together.

"Look slowly, Leo and I will find the last chance of life for this gem tree!" Ivan grinned and led Leo back to the hollow.
