Chapter 20: Cause and Effect (Part II)
"I'm back."
The tyrant was physically and mentally exhausted.
"Jun, how's it going? Patriarch he ......"
“…… I'm sorry ~ I couldn't convince him"
The tyrant knelt before the woman with tears in his eyes.
"Jun, don't do this...... Thank you~"
The woman smiled heartily.
"Black tea, I'm sorry for you two~"
The tyrant wept bitterly and threw himself into Black Tea's arms.
“… I believe that everything you do, you have a reason. ”
Black Tea thoughtfully stroked the tyrant's head.
"I'm sorry, tea~ It's been really hard for you all these years. This time, I have to be willful, after all, the patriarch is my father! ”
The tyrant's tears flowed uncontrollably.
"Well, I understand, he's my father... Wherever you go, I'll follow you. ”
Black tea always keeps a smile on her face.
"Woooooooooo......oo In my tyrant's life, I'm afraid I won't be able to repay you for what you've done to me......"
"It's okay, follow you, it's already the happiest thing in my life~"
Black tea stuck out her tongue like a child at this moment.
“…… Thank you..."
The tyrant's voice trembled.
"Between husband and wife, no thanks, it is enough to communicate with each other's hearts."
“…… Well! What about snacks? ”
"Sleep soundly in the compartment~"
“…… Whew~ I really want to see him grow up soon~"
The tyrant looked at the gluttony with doting.
"The child can sleep so soundly, thanks to Mr. Garlic~"
"Yes, I didn't expect the old-timed garlic to have this effect...... But it is precisely this effect that is used by some wicked person to do bad things! ”
The tyrant clenched his fists.
"Anyway, the sleep powder made from Mr. Garlic's garlic is only used to coax children to sleep."
"No, not anymore! This thing has fallen into the hands of that thief, and it has become extremely dangerous! ”
The tyrant got up and lifted the curtains.
"Are you going again?"
Black tea seems reluctant.
"Ah, I will save our father, and I will save our people!"
"Hmm...... Hmm~Go, my big hero~"
Black Tea turned her head and burst into tears.
(Reality)
"So, Grandpa Garlic, you've been to their cannibal flower family for a long time."
Bean asked.
"Well, yes, because their patriarch has a close relationship with the tyrant, that is, the gluttonous father, that's why I've been helping the family."
"Do you know the patriarch? Who are you? ”
Xiao You also showed his surprise.
"Well~huhu~"
Garlic smiled and looked at the ceiling.
(Garlic Review - re.action)
"Patriarch! Patriarch! ”
The tyrant hurriedly ran into the secret base.
"You're here!"
The patriarch turned his back to him, as if reading a book.
"Patriarch, what the hell do you ......?"
"Don't say anything, by the way, what about another person?"
The patriarch turned.
"You say, Daye, he may not have received your secret message yet."
The tyrant panicked and covered up.
“…… Well, you come over first, I have a secret to tell you. ”
"What's the secret?"
The tyrant walked over with a suspicious look.
"The secret is ......"
As soon as the words fell, the tyrant was trapped in the cage of thorns.
"Hahaha, it didn't take much effort to get there...... You rebel! ”
Duan Yi slowly walked out from behind the bookshelf.
"You!! What did you do to the patriarch, you bastard! ”
"Hmph, anyone who tries to steal my monuments will face the judgment of death!"
Duan Yi is leisurely.
"You bastard!!"
"Hey, I've been caught, and my mouth is still so hard...... Eh, I've come up with a better idea to make me the Patriarch on course, and to blame it all on you, a rebel! ”
After Duan Yi said this, the patriarch's fist trembled.
"Let's go, old patriarch~ It's time to carry out the patriarch handover ceremony."
As he spoke, the three of them came to the clan.
"Patriarch, please call your personal guard. Oh yes, there is no need to call the morning and middle classes today if they are dead. Just call the new guards and tell them to inform the people to come to the square. ”
After saying that, the patriarch summoned the thorns for secret transmission to the ground and headed towards the location of the guard. During this period, the patriarch's hand seemed to be trying his best to restrain his movements, but he couldn't help himself.
Soon, the square was already crowded. Standing on the podium was led by Duan Yi, as well as the patriarch and two guards, plus the tyrant who was trapped in the cage of thorns and passed out with sleep powder.
"Ahem, everyone is quiet and quiet, today is the patriarch's big day. Because, the patriarch and his old man plan to let our powerful clansmen inherit his position as patriarch. So, who will be the lucky one......
Duan Yi's words were interrupted.
"What? What happened to the patriarch? ”
A clansman asked.
"Why?"
"I think it's supposed to be me."
"you! I'm obviously better than you, and I don't know where to go. ”
"Just the two of you turtle grandsons, are you embarrassed to mention the position of patriarch there? Shameless! ”
"What do you say?!!"
The scene was a mess.
"Quiet!!! This is the decision of the patriarch, so next, ask the patriarch to announce the name of the new patriarch! ”
Duan Yi yelled.
“……”
"It's me, it's me, it's me! ……”
After a brief lull, the square was boiling again.
"I... Announce... Under... The first patriarch is ......"
The patriarch tried his best to restrain himself.
Some of the clansmen were still concerned about whether the patriarch had encountered any accidents, but they would also be like those clansmen who coveted fame, eager to hear their own name.
“… Duan, Yi ......"
The patriarch finally didn't mean it.
The scene descended into chaos.
"Just the idiot who violated the rules of the clan on stage and showed his eyes out?"
"Let's not talk about whether it violates the rules or not, just by the color of his hair, he is not our clansman, where did he come from? Patriarch! I don't agree with this! ”
"Besides, what qualifications does he have to be the patriarch? Patriarch! Think again! ”
"Patriarch, it's up to you~"
Duan Yi put his hand on the patriarch's shoulder.
"I didn't ...... That's right! That's my decision! ”
The patriarch spoke intermittently, but no one noticed his abnormality. Because, in their eyes, only jealousy remains.
"Hmph~"
Duan Yi looked contemptuously at the clansmen under the lookout.
"Now, I, declare...... The position of the patriarch, officially... Hand, give...... Duan Yi ......"
As soon as the words fell, some clansmen who didn't know whether they were alive or dead rushed to the podium, as if they wanted to kill Duan Yi. However, it backfired, and they were easily pierced by Duan Yi's thorns and turned into purple mud.
The people in the audience were shocked, this is human nature!
"I'm the patriarch now! It is a felony to kill the head of a clan! You need to know! Only the strong are qualified to be the patriarch, you say yes, old patriarch~"
Duan Yi happily patted the patriarch on the shoulder.
"All the people obey the order! From now on, I will be your new patriarch! As long as you listen to me, you can be stronger! Now, I'm going to show you the scum of the show! That's this guy! ”
Duan Yi pointed to the tyrant in the cage.
"Now I will list all his sins to you, and I hope you will take them as a warning. First, the rebel tried to defy the policy of outcasts within the clan. Second, I tried to kill our old patriarch, but fortunately, I found it in time, so I prevented this tragedy from happening. However, I still went too late, causing the patriarch's personal guard to die tragically! Perhaps that's why the patriarch thinks I'm trustworthy. However, since the patriarch trusts me so much, I will definitely not disappoint his kindness! This concludes today's meeting, and I invite you to gather here again tomorrow morning. Tomorrow we will execute this rebel in person, and give you the secret to becoming stronger! Meeting! ”
The people cheered, but it was impossible to determine whether it was the execution of the cheers, the cheers getting stronger, or both.
It's just that they have completely forgotten about Duan Yi's violation of the rules of the clan to the clouds.
(Evening)
Cannibal Flower Prison
The tyrant was lying on a straw mat with a dazed expression.
"Jun..."
The tyrant heard a faint voice.
"Patriarch?!"
Outside the cell, the patriarch trembled and unlocked the lock.
"You... Hurry up, let's go ......."
"Patriarch! Patriarch! So you're not being controlled! Great, let's get out of here! ”
The tyrant excitedly took the patriarch's hand.
"Don't, touch... I...... I, insistence...... It won't be long before ...... There are too many doses of sleep powder, and I just rely on this awareness, which is hope, hope, that you can be well, ......"
The patriarch restrained the flow of magic in his body.
"Patriarch, I'll help you! Together, the two of us will be able to unlock the control technique in your body......"
"It's too late! That...... Bastard, it's coming! …… You, you still have, your wife, your children...... Therefore, you must, well, live, and prove to me that mine, the abandoned son, the policy, is wrong! This is, Father's command! ”
The patriarch exhausted all his strength.
"Nope! Father!! ”
"Yo yo yo, I said why is it so lively~ Father and son reunion, this is."
Duan Yi walked slowly.
"Bastard! Isn't he your father?! ”
"So what? I only care about the people who betray me, and they will die a miserable death! ”
Duan Yi glared angrily and stared at the patriarch.
"Hmph, heh... Oh, yes, the ability, just untie it, my technique, let me, also dignified, right, is betraying you, once ......"
“…… Hmm, don't think I don't know what your old thing is up to, unravel your trick and create a chance for you, the rebel's son, to escape, right? But anyway, I'll let you know what it means to be desperate and what to do! What do you mean, obviously your son is right in front of you, but you can't save him, watching him die a tragic death! ”
Duan Yi's face distorted.
"You go!"
"Nope! Father! I can't go! ”
"You!"
"Hahahaha, look at you, how funny it is, one for salvation and one for sending. Hahahaha, it's game over! ”
Duan Yi directly struck down his dead hand, sending out a huge number of thorns to break through the prison, and stopped at the position where the thorns touched the tyrant a few millimeters away.
I saw that the thorns penetrated the patriarch's chest, and the tip of the thorns was only a few millimeters from the tip of the tyrant's nose.
"Ah!!!!!h
The tyrant has collapsed!
"Kid, is it so useless? Whew, whew......"
The patriarch hugged the thorns on his chest and gasped.
"Let's go!!"
While Duan Yi was distracted, the patriarch sent out a vine without spikes to knock the tyrant away, and Duan Yi wanted to catch up, but was blocked by the wall of thorns summoned by the patriarch.
"Huo? ~Is this going to break the jar? ”
Duan Yi stopped and laughed leisurely, as if he felt a lot more relaxed about not chasing the tyrant.
"I said, old thing, you have to use so much thorn power with this amount of blood, you really don't want to live."
"Hmph, as long as I can destroy you, then I don't have any regrets!"
The patriarch's whole body spurted blood, dense with blood-colored thorns, surrounding the prison.
"That's your last resort?"
Duan Yi stood in his cage of thorns, his arms folded. But the patriarch has been pierced by his own blood-colored thorns.
"Boredom~"
Duan Yi destroyed the thorns around him and opened his huge mouth.
The prison collapsed.
In the smoke of gunfire, thousands of years later, the first seed owner was born again.
"Hahaha! My kingdom is born! ”
Duan Yi licked his seed.
On this night, the tyrant disappeared, leaving black tea and a little gluttony alone in the empty room.
The next day
A feeble knock at the door.
"Jun! What happened to you? ”
Black Tea looked at the tyrant with a dejected face. Asked worriedly.
"Patriarch he...... Sacrificed ...... to protect me"
The tyrant said that the tears could not stop flowing down.
"Don't worry, you speak slowly~"
The voice of black tea is always so gentle, and the tyrant who has been hungry and cold all night outside, his mood has calmed down a lot at this moment.
After that, the tyrant told his wife everything that had happened yesterday.
"Devouring? I didn't expect our race to have such a history? ”
Let's cover your mouth with black tea.
"Yes, and, last night, I saw with my own eyes, that bastard has grown seeds! It is estimated that it will soon affect ordinary people! ”
"Listen to what you mean, if he destroys the ancient monuments, the source of the people's memories will be confused, which will lead to the collapse of the race?"
"Well, not only that, but they also listed me as a key target!"
"So, what do you mean?"
"Now, immediately, immediately, leave with the child, and go as far as possible!"
The tyrant got up and turned his back to Black Tea.
"Hmm~I won't leave you~"
Black Tea shook her head.
"Presumably, Xiaoshi won't want to leave, you see."
"Baa... Baa. ”
The little gluttonous eater is on the wooden couch, looking intently at the tyrant.
“…… Well... You ......"
"Oh, what is the big man crying like~ Don't think of yourself as a lonely warrior or something, don't forget, you still have us~"
Black Tea hands the tyrant a tissue.
“…… Hmmm, good! Then I have decided, I will spend every happy day with you from now on......"
Before the tyrant had finished speaking, he heard a noise outside the house.
"This is it, isn't it?"
"Who knows, just slam the door!"
"I'd rather kill a thousand by mistake than let go of half!"
"You take the child and hide first!"
The tyrant finished his command and went out.
"Who? Noisy at my door early in the morning? If you have any questions, why don't you come with me to the park? ”
"Yo, really!"
A cannibal said.
"Don't pretend to me! You should know what we are talking about today, right? ”
Another cannibal interjected.
"Hey! I ask you, how old is your son? ”
The third cannibal asked casually, but the tyrant was furious.
"You don't need to know! Also, don't hit my son's idea!! ”
The tyrant directly knocked the cannibal flower man away with his steel teeth, and then he also frantically pounced.
The other two followed in a panic.
"What are you going to do as a wanted criminal?"
"Let's get caught!"
"Don't hurt my family!"
The tyrant kept destroying the cannibal flower people on the ground with his steel teeth, and he was already completely skinned in a few days.
"Suffer death!"
The other two took advantage of the gap to clamp down on the tyrant from the left and right.
"Heh, have you started devouring it?"
The tyrant looked at the seed that was biting his own hands.
"I said, if you are arrested now, maybe you will be able to spare your life."
"That's it, in other words, our new patriarch is really a very good person~ Just a moment of kung fu, our ability is good!"
"Phew! He is also worthy of being called the patriarch? ”
"Watch my mouth!"
A cannibal stun the tyrant with his elbow.
"Let's go!"
"And what about this dude?"
"If you want to blame, blame this wanted criminal, you can only fight one person."
"Otherwise, let's devour him~"
"Devouring whom? This wanted criminal? No, the patriarch ordered us to take him back. ”
"No, I mean this dude. Isn't it already impossible to get up anyway? ”
“…… Reasonable! But who devoured him? ”
“……”
The two fell silent.
"Otherwise, one and a half!"
"Does this really grow seeds?"
"No matter, anyway, we don't grow seeds today, so it's better to use them for our seed experiments. If it doesn't work out, there's nothing to lose us. ”
"Makes sense!"
"Hmm!"
After saying that, the two brutally tore their companion who still had a trace of breath on the ground in half, accompanied by a scream that resounded through the sky.
In the small window of the cabin, there was a frightened look on the woman's face, and she had unconsciously stroked the white-haired boy's head very hard.
"Ahh Yes...... Ahhhh......h No way! No way! Isn't there a stronger and more qualified one?! The reason I gave you to become stronger was that you could survive by just one tail? Fast! Fast! Go to gladiatorial fights! I want stronger seeds! ”
In the patriarch's office, Duan Yi was rolling frantically on the ground, and the blood on the carpet had grown several millimeters thick due to coagulation and coagulation.
Looking at him, he seemed to be very dissatisfied with the food just now, and saw him pull out the third seed in extreme pain. Even though the blood was overflowing, he did not forget to lick the seeds of the old patriarch.
"You two, go and recruit talents, I want at least three or more people in the gladiatorial arena to be my baptists! Just go! I can't help it! ”
Duan Yi roared at the two guards.
"Yes, yes!"
The two guards left tremblingly.
"What are you doing back?!"
Shortly after one of the guards went out, he turned back to the office.
"Patriarch, the prisoner has been caught!"
“… Yo! That's nice! That's great! Keep looking for someone! When I went out, tell the three boys that I will come after changing my clothes. ”
Duan Yi was already close to being moody.
(Hmph, as long as it's against me, let me die, hahahaha, kill the chickens and make an example!) Come on, let the world be chaotic! )”
Duan Yi thought about it while planning to tear up the monument.
(Wait!) Now I need to calm down. After all, it is not clear how much turbulence the destruction of monuments will cause. If I do this now, it may cause inconvenience to my path to becoming stronger. No matter! It's important to try the prisoner first! )”
Duan Yi tried to convince himself.
"Then, today, it will be a feast for everyone's eyes! This sinner of the ages, tyrant! We, in the next few minutes, will show you that sinners do not die well! ”
One of the three people who had previously escorted the tyrant said this from the podium.
"Kill him!"
"Such scum will only harm the clan in the race!"
"I want to raise my own children! Are you planning to usurp power with your grown up children?! ”
"Me! You are not allowed to speak of my son!!!! ”
"Say what's wrong with your son?! You scum! ”
"Hmph, people eat people, is that what you call justice? Isn't it considered scum? ”
"The world of the jungle is like this! Give me a stop! ”
The cannibal flower people on the stage whipped the tyrant hard.
"Presumably, all the clansmen think the same way~"
Duan Yile walked over leisurely.
(Are the people below really so numb to devouring?) It's all cheering, and even if there are a few people who don't make a statement, it's just that part of the weak. Also, even if there is opposition, it will soon be overwhelmed by this sea of people...... )”
The tyrant looked at the noisy clansmen in the audience and shook his head in disappointment.
"Yo, isn't this my old friend, Mr. Tyrant? Why are you standing in front of this shelf with your arms outstretched? Do you want to hug my people? Hahaha......"
"Phew!"
The tyrant has a mouthful of old phlegm.
"Made! Lao Tzu has never been so angry when he is so old! Serve him well! ”
Duan Yi hurriedly wiped the phlegm on his face with a hand towel.
"I met it today, hahaha! Uh-a-ah......"
"Call you kid stinky mouth! Call you kid stinky mouth! ”
The two cannibals frantically beat the tyrant, and soon the tyrant was covered in scarred gaps.
"How? Is your mouth still that stinky now? ”
Duan Yi pinched the tyrant's chin with his hand while continuing to wipe his face with a hand towel.
"Hehe, phew!"
Another mouthful of old phlegm.
"Ahh Hit me, fight to the death!! ”
Duan Yi jumped up and down like a mad dog.
"Patriarch? …… Is that all you can do? …… uh..."
The tyrant endured the whip and mocked Duan Yi.
"Whew...... Call...... Call...... Call... Don't push me! ”
Duan Yi gasped.
"Hmph, you're just like that~"
The tyrant looked at the embarrassed Duan Yi with disdain.
"Huh! Hehehehe...... You're just trying to provoke me, and I already know everything about you. You're running out of options, hahaha, quick, quick! Tell me where the guy who was with you at the time?!! ”
Duan Yi showed a collapsed expression.
"Hmph, if you are no longer afraid of my humiliation, why are you so far away from me?"
The tyrant looked at Duan Yi, who was several feet away from him, with disdain.
"Say it quickly!! Tell me quickly!! ”
Duan Yi roared.
“… Patriarch, forgive me! ”
Tyrant yin and yang weird.
“…… Ahh Hit him beat him hit him!!! ”
Duan Yi roared impotently.
“(… Eh, there is. )”
Duan Yi went back and forth and suddenly stopped.
"Stop! Hmph, you, don't tell me, do you? ”
Duan Yi once again dared to enter the range of the tyrant's phlegm attack.
"Yo, huh...... Call... Aren't you afraid? ”
The tyrant gasped.
"I, why should I be stuck in such a trivial matter? I mean, aren't you afraid that your wife and children will die because of your willfulness, because of your so-called brotherly friendship? ”
“…… You repeat! ”
The tyrant bowed his head.
"Huh? Didn't you hear me? ”
"Say it again!"
"Then I will tell you again with great mercy! I say, "Your wife and children will die...... Yes!! ”
Duan Yi was overwhelmed by the oncoming punches, and the naked tyrant broke free from the shackles with red eyes, and fought his way out of the cannibal flower group.
“…… Hehe, hahaha, hahaha...... Hehehe, that's it, that's it, so that there is the feeling of prey and predator, fast, fast! Go, hunt him down, kill him! His family, one who did not stay, killed !! ”
Duan Yi looked at the fleeing tyrant and showed a sickly smile.
The crowd in the square was crowded, and the overwhelming force overshadowed the tyrant. Along the way, the tyrant overcame all obstacles and killed red eyes.
Finally, the sea of people defeated him, and just as he was about to be devoured by his people, he finally got his first seed!
Presumably it was caused by the piece of meat that he accidentally swallowed when he bit the clansman earlier.
"It turns out that all this is fate! I'm sorry, but for the sake of protecting my wife and children, please forgive me! ”
In an instant, the sea of people was disintegrated by radial thorns, leaving only a half-naked tyrant covered in blood and a sea of blood.
