Chapter 69 Rainbow Courtyard 1
Moto Sato has said this, and it is impossible for Lijia to pretend that she doesn't know anything!
Lijia: "Alright, alright!" Don't you want to know how many elves there are in the Rainbow Gym? Come with me~ I'll take you to see and see...... Part ~"
Ink Sato: Stay-
Lijia couldn't help but pull Sato Mo away, and shuttled through the building of the Rainbow Dojo with ease, Sato Mo followed Lijia along the maze of corridors.
The building here is very familiar with Ink Sato. In the past few days since he came to the Rainbow Gym, in the process of 'exploring', Ink Sato has been here many times, although each time he will be blinded by the detour. Before he knew it, Ink Sato would return to the same place as he walked.
Lijia felt the force in her palm increase slightly, and said softly: "The corridor here is similar to a labyrinth, but it is harmless, it is full of visual guidance and geometric construction, etc. The main purpose of building it is to allow those who have strayed into it to return safely. β
"Mistakenly in it?" The word is subtle, and Ink Sato couldn't help but ask.
Lijia held Mo's palm tightly and smiled without saying a word.
This is the place where Ink Sato has never been, and the Rainbow Dojo is gradually receding from its bustle, and the breath of nature is gradually becoming stronger.
The stone road at the foot gradually replaced the wooden corridor, and the scattered buildings were successively blocked by dense trees. The secluded forest, coupled with the elves that haunt the grass, makes it seem like she is back in the wild! Mo Sato subconsciously buckled the Poke Ball.
To this, Lijia just smiled.
Lijia dragged Moto along the gravel road, eventually stopping in front of a barbed wire fence.
The barbed wire fence is about 10 meters high and covered with vines. Dark green vines obscured the original color of the barbed wire, and twisted along the sides of the barbed wire.
On the outside of the barbed wire stood a tall tree, its straight trunk pointing straight to the sky, and the huge canopy cast a shadow on Sato's face.
Under the shade of the trees, at the end of the road, stands a stone monument, the surface is cracked, this stone monument looks a little old. The stele has words: idlers are not allowed to enter, pay to collect corpses! ("Pay to collect the corpse" draws a red line!) οΌ
Ink Sato: "......"
Sato Mo tugged at Lijia and pointed to the words on the stele speechlessly.
Lijia followed Sato Mo's gaze and looked over: "That's it...... In front of me is the living area of my elves, and the combat power of most of the elves is guaranteed.
The southwest corner of Rainbow City is my family's, and it is inevitable that there will be omissions in such a large area, and even if there are no omissions, some people will artificially create some omissions.
At first, I wanted to make a fortune by 'paying to collect corpses', but who expected that the guys inside were getting better and better at digesting, those ...... Eh, a financial road is cut off! What a pity! β
Ink Sato: "......"
Hey, hey, hey! That's not the point, is it?!
Lijia pulled Momo Sato to her side, and then rhythmically tapped the trunk of the tree at the end of the roadβthree long and two short.
Da-da-da-da
After knocking, Lijia whispered to Sato Mo: "Have you remembered this rhythm?" β
"Huh? Uh-huh! This rhythm is so simple, Sato Mo remembered it at once! Sato Mo remembered it, his eyes rolled slightly, but he didn't find anything: "Sister Lijia, nothing?" Why don't you let me knock on it? β
Lijia smiled very gently: "Well, if you want to die, go ahead!" β
Ink Sato: "??? β
Lijia's eyes blinked, and she said to the trunk Nunu: "Na~ Look, it's coming~"
On the trunk of the big tree in front of him, a small lump suddenly bulged. While the lump is growing rapidly, the bark around the tree is cracking and aging at a rate visible to the naked eye.
With a soft pop, several pencil-sized dark green vines burst through the bark and eagerly emerged from the swollen bag, and then wrapped around the trunk.
The vines that wrapped around the trunk of the fried tree crumbled straight, and a brownish-black seed was pulled out of the trunk. With the strength of the vines, the seed hung in the air and shook slightly, as if sensing something.
Lijia pulled Sato Mo back two steps before she spoke, "Mu Ye, come out quickly!" I've taken a few steps back! β
The seed jumped twice, and when Lijia was sure to be far away, a faint blue flame suddenly erupted from the seed. In front of him, there was obviously a beating flame, but Sato Mo felt that the temperature around him had dropped by a few degrees.
The flames swayed, and the outer flames suddenly shrank and changed color rapidly, and the dark blue flames turned into a red one-eyed, and the black pupils stared directly at Sato Mo.
Ink Sato was stared at so much that his heart was straight hairy!
Lijia waved her hand, attracting the attention of the red one-eyed: "Shuye~Sato Mo is Lijia's friend~"
Red One-Eye: "......"
A handful of dark blue flames burst out of his pupils, and the red one-eyed sighed very humanely, even if it was the first time they met, Sato Mo could feel the helplessness of this little elf.
The tree trembled slightly, and some cracks and local bumps appeared on the ground inexplicably, slowly spreading to the feet of Amu Sato and Rika.
Sato Mo noticed that there was something wrong, and subconsciously lowered his head: "Hmm? What is it? β
Lijia's face changed, and she hurriedly supported Sato Mo, and shouted: "Momo, don't move!" That's the rhizome of the tree! β
The brown rhizome that crept out of the ground was wrapped around Sato Mo's ankle, although it was as slender as a hair, with the touch of the ankle, Sato Mo could feel the power contained in the rhizome, a very contradictory power: the vigorous vitality of the plant, and the destructive power that was very similar to the dark blue flame.
"It's, it'...... Sister Lijia, I'm so cold! β
"It's okay, Momo, it's not cold soon!"
"How do you feel like I don't have much to live? ...... Sister, please change your words! I'm panicking! β
Lijia ignored Sato Mo's poor mouth, turned her head to look at the red one-eyed and said, "Master Shu, you can prepare!" β
"What are you going to prepare? ...... it!! β
There is no need for Lijia to answer, Momo Sato already knows what the preparation of "Tree Master" is!
The brown rhizomes that emerge from the ground grow wildly like hormones, and the sharp points are used as nodes to separate into dense hair-like slender rhizomes, and in a short time, Sato Mo is wrapped in rice dumplings.
Sato Mo tried to struggle for a while, and found that the rhizome on his body was as hard as steel. Sato Mo suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and subconsciously glanced at Lijia, emm...... Forget it, bundle play and bundle play!
"Look again, gouge out your eyeballs! ...... Tree, I'm kidding! β
After Lijia said something, Sato Mo watched with palpitations as the rhizome in front of his eyes slowly moved away. The slow speed has a posture of digging out her eyes as soon as Lijia changes her words.
After waiting for a while, as if knowing that Lijia was really just joking, the tree master gave up.
"Momo, close your eyes! If I don't speak, don't open my eyes! Don't speak! β
"Oh-"
After seeing Lijia close her glasses, Sato Mo glanced at the fiery red one-eyed floating in the air, and then closed her eyes in the same way.
The rhizome covered the eyes of the two for the first time, and the fiery red one eye looked at Sato Mo for a while, and finally set his eyes on Lijia.
The dark light flickered in the one-eye, and the rhizomes wrapped around the surface of the bodies of Lijia and Sato Mo glowed with a faint green light, and Sato Mo only felt a warm vitality burrowing into his body.
But I didn't notice that the tip of the rhizome, which was broken through the surface and exposed to the outside, was pitch black. The black color spreads until the shadows of both Sato Ink and Rika are infected.
As the black rhizomes began to return the way they came, the shadows beneath the two of them rippled like unsettled water. At the same time that the black rhizome sank into the ground, the two people who were entwined by the rhizome also disappeared into the shadow.
The red one-eyed turned into a faint blue flame again, dissipating into the air, and the swollen lumps on the trunk of the tree looked like they had never appeared at all.
