Volume 7 Chapter 67, The Mutation of the Wood Ape
A few people were talking, but they saw that the face of the wooden ape suddenly changed, and a layer of frost was shrouded in the face, and the whole person seemed to wilt, "It's over, it's over, the wooden ape clan is completely finished," he said, he wanted to get up from the ground, and halfway through the climb, the whole person was planted from the stone path.
"Uncle Wood Ape!" Chen Chen didn't understand what was going on, he stretched out his hand to grab him, but he shrank back in the middle of the road, the wooden ape was huge, and he would only take himself down, besides, the height of this stone path was nothing to the wood ape, and it would be okay to fall, Chen Chen saw that his junior sister stretched out his hand and wanted to pull but also pulled empty, Chen Chen glanced at his junior sister, unfolded his body, and jumped down gently, and his junior sister jumped down close behind him.
"Uncle Wood Ape, what's wrong with you?" Senior Sister knelt beside the Wood Ape, the Wood Ape was lying on the ground, nearly ten trees were crushed under him, and the branches leaned out from under him, he looked at the sky with a dull gaze, and Chen Chen saw that there was a golden tear oozing out of the corner of his eye.
The Crystal Beast jumped onto a branch from the shoulder of the junior sister and then jumped onto the ape, squeaking and squeaking on him, looking very eager.
The wood ape didn't speak for a long time, his eyes were full of sadness, and the junior sister and the crystal beast were very anxious. "Uncle Wood Ape," Chen Chen had a bad premonition in his heart, "What happened?, how did you plant it from above, is it the reason for the Crystal of the Ancient White Tree?" "The only thing in this world that can have such a big reaction from the Wood Ape is the Crystal of the Ancient White Tree, could it be that Sa Ruo used the power of the Crystal of the Ancient White Tree?"
The wood ape turned his gaze to look at the Crystal Beast. "Crystal Beast, forget it, it's ridiculous I still believe that there are really people in this world who can resist the temptation of the Ancient White Tree Crystal, just now I have already felt the spiritual power of the Ancient White Tree Crystal continue to flow out, heh, that feeling is really disappointing!" Another tear dripped from the yellow eyes of the wood ape, "It seems that our Gu White Tree clan really has no hope of standing up again, and the wood ape clan will be extinct today!"
"Uncle Wood Ape," the senior sister had tears in her eyes, "Don't say that, our friend must be in trouble, otherwise he would never use the crystal of the ancient white tree, besides, isn't there still you in the Wood Ape Clan, as long as you live, you will definitely be able to revive the Wood Ape Clan again, as long as you live, there is still hope!"
"Hehe," the wood ape laughed self-deprecatingly: "As long as I live, there is hope, what is really nice, the life of the wood ape clan is maintained on the ancient white tree, the ancient white tree survived because of the crystal of the ancient white tree, and now both are destroyed, you say, what hope do we have, if it weren't for the young man who planted a strange power in my body, now I would have disappeared into this world, what hope do you say, when this little power in my body disappears, I will also disappear into the world, you say, what hope do I have?"
The junior sister didn't know what to say at this time, and her tears finally fell.
The wood ape sat up from the ground suddenly, and he smiled viciously: "However, don't want to live your friend, his name is Saruo, when he finishes absorbing the power of the ancient white tree, wait to be devoured by this power, then he will turn into a rotten wood, when the time comes, hahahaha......" That was a kind of crazy and desperate laughter.
Chen Chen sat on the ground with his ass. What the hell is wrong with you, Saro? How can you not resist the temptation? He punched the ground, I still guarded my fart, and my mission was over...... Chen Chen had never been so disappointed as he was now, as a guardian, Saruo was the hope of his struggle, and now he seemed to be pulled out of his whole strength. The junior sister hadn't noticed the change in him yet, but he really wanted to hug the junior sister and cry bitterly.
The wood ape's hand suddenly became like a vine again, rolling up Chen Chen and his junior sister, rolling him up with his right hand and his junior sister with his left hand, Chen Chen felt that the entangled vine became tighter and tighter, almost suffocating him.
"Uncle Wood Ape!" Zhao Chen shouted in horror: "What are you going to do?"
"What for?" said the wood ape viciously, the voice popping out from between his teeth, "Damn humans, are you so hungry for power, let me show you what power is!"
The vines that entwined them tightened again, Chen Chen only felt that his eyes were dark, but at this time he had lost all desire to resist, if Sa Ruo died, there would be no hope in this world, what else could he resist?
"Senior brother!" he heard his junior sister scream, the crystal beast became more than a person tall again, and his whole body emitted terrible heat, he jumped onto the shoulder of the wood ape, sprayed flames into the air, and then waved his fist and screamed at the wood ape, those flames were only used by the crystal beast to scare the wood ape, and they would not really burn him, Chen Chen knew.
"Xiaojing, don't stop me, I won't survive anyway, even if you burn me to death today, I will get rid of these two hateful humans now!"
The crystal beast spun around in a hurry, jumping from the left shoulder to the right shoulder of the wood ape, very embarrassed, and the flames that spewed out did not advance a few inches in front of the wood ape.
Chen Chen felt that the vines wrapped around his body were getting tighter and tighter, tighter and tighter, he didn't struggle, he took one last look at his junior sister, and then closed his eyes, he thought they were dead, but he felt that the vines that were wrapped around him suddenly became loose, and they were actually put on the ground again.
Chen Chen opened his eyes and found that the wooden ape was standing in place with his eyes closed, frowning, as if he was feeling carefully, his junior sister ran to his side, threw herself into his arms and cried, Chen Chen did not push her away this time, and now it is too cruel for her to push her away, he patted his junior sister's back to show comfort, he saw the crystal beast fall to the ground, looked up at the wooden ape strangely, the trees on the ground were crushed by the wooden ape, and there were a few trees on the edge that stood up and erected again after the wooden ape stood up, each of these trees had to be at least as thick as a few people hugging each other, the weight of this wooden ape......
After a while, the ape opened his eyes, and there seemed to be a very ashamed look on his face.
"Uh...... Uh......" he said, "I was in a bit of a hurry, and I didn't feel it carefully...... Only...... Just ......"
The junior sister raised her head from Chen Chen's arms and looked at the wooden ape, Chen Chen gently pushed the junior sister away from his arms, her face was still a little pale, obviously she had just been frightened.
"The spiritual power of the Ancient White Tree Crystal has stopped leaking out again, and the spiritual power that has just leaked has returned to the Ancient White Tree Crystal," the wood ape's face was a little unnatural, "I misunderstood your friend." β
Chen Chen's face changed after hearing this, he rushed to the side of the wooden ape's leg and kicked him hard at the top of his foot, he could only kick here, otherwise he would definitely kick him in the stomach.
"Damn!" Chen Chen scolded, and then walked forward without looking back, burrowing into the forest. Chen Chen was angry not only with the wood ape, but also with himself, as a guardian, as a friend of Saruo, he didn't believe in the object of his protection and his friend so much, Saruo would not be tempted, he said to himself, the object of his protection is worthy of being guarded, in the future, no matter what happens, he must absolutely believe in his friend, he must try his best to survive, not to die, only to save his life, in order to fulfill his duty.
After entering the forest, the sunlight dimmed, and even the temperature became lower, and the deeper the forest went, the thicker the trees became, the branches were staggered overhead, blocking most of the sunlight, many of the trunks were wrapped with vines, some of the roots were exposed, covered with pale lichens, and the ground was covered with a layer of rotten leaves, which was very soft to step on, and he huffed across the roots of several trees, but when he went further, he was blocked by a vine, and he had to bypass these vines and continue to move forward, it seemed that it was very difficult to walk in this forestγ
"Senior brother, senior brother," he heard his junior sister calling him from behind, and had to stop, it is very easy to get lost in this forest, and it is easy to get lost if you don't walk together, "Where are you, wait for us." β
The Crystal Beast caught up with him first, stopping in front of him, its little paws pointing back, signaling Chen Chen to look back. I saw the branches separated, and the first thing that appeared was the foot of the wooden ape, the wooden ape strode over, and his body was getting bigger and bigger in front of him, and there was no trace of the junior sister, and after a closer look, I realized that the junior sister was sitting on the left shoulder of the wooden ape. Couldn't help but say, the wooden ape's right hand turned into a vine, rolled Chen Chen up again, the wooden ape took Chen Chen in front of him, split his big mouth, and said: "The little guy has a big temper, I admit that I was in a hurry, and I apologize to you here." The junior sister also said on his shoulder: "Senior brother, you can forgive Uncle Wood Ape, after all, the crystal of the ancient white tree is too important to him." β
Chen Chen was put on the shoulder by the wooden ape, Chen Chen didn't sit down at first, and grabbed a beard on the side of the wooden ape's cheeks, and then sat down, and the wooden ape hissed in pain: "You little guy, pull out my beard, it's too grudgeful." β
Chen Chen heard his junior sister laughing on the side, "Who told you to misunderstand your brother's brother!" At this time, the crystal beast had also returned to the junior sister's shoulder, waving his little claws there.
"You little girl," the wooden ape said as he walked forward, "I'm just old, and my heart is too anxious, I misunderstood your friend......" Chen Chen can feel deep helplessness from his voice, yes, he is the only one left in the entire wooden ape clan, and he wants to know which day, he doesn't protect Saruo, and the entire human race will be left alone, he doesn't know, he will still have the same courage to face it as Uncle Wooden Ape, so he said: "Uncle Wooden Ape, I was too anxious just now, I shouldn't have kicked you, I'm sorry." β
"Hey, don't even say I'm sorry," the wood ape said, "I really want to meet your friend, I vaguely feel that he seems to be in some danger, which attracted the power of the ancient white tree crystal, but he relied on his super strong will to save the day, and forced that power back into the crystal of the ancient white tree, it is really rare to have such a strong-willed person in this world, if he can keep persisting like this, not affected by the spiritual power of the crystal of the ancient white tree, then my wood ape clan really has hope for revival!"
