As Zero said, all the food at the banquet is with attributes, and the bonus is particularly strong, that is, the duration is very short, and when Lin Shuai tries to put the food into the backpack while the people next to him are not paying attention, the system prompts that it is a special item for a special scene, and it will be invalid if he leaves the Treant Tribe, so he has to give up.

The banquet was in harmony, and the two priests seemed to be in the position of tribal treasurers, and less than 5 minutes into the banquet, they walked up to the stage and announced to the trees the overall income for the year.

They don't have any concept of money, they can grow fruits and vegetables everywhere in the forest to be self-sufficient, and the income they mean is the amount of wood spirit harvest, which is related to how many new members they will give birth to next year.

During this period, Mao Kai still gnawed on the food in front of him without saying a word, as if he didn't care about himself, and the two priests didn't say anything to him after the announcement, and their attitude was very weird, as if at the banquet, Mao Kai, the great elder, was like a transparent person.

Similarly, there are two people who have become transparent people, and the tree people who had a friendly conversation before changed their faces in an instant, and no one came to talk to the two, how to say that the two are also guests, and now this situation is too unreasonable.

If it weren't for the fact that most of the tree people still had green names on their heads, Lin Shuai would have suspected that the two of them had been quietly wanted by the tree people.

There's also a sense of satiety in the game.,If you eat too much, you'll feel supported.,Drink too much and enter a comatose state The system will automatically kick you off the game.,It's just that there's no metabolic system.,It's still a real-world need to go to the toilet or something.,The system will prompt you in a timely manner.。

Because no one paid attention, the two of them almost ate all the time, and then ate and ate, Lin Shuai also entered a drunken state for 30 seconds because he drank an extra glass of that fruit brew, and everything in front of him was blurry, and the body control was only 60%, but fortunately it was only 30 seconds.

At 12:10, there was finally movement at the banquet.

"Great Elder, it's time for the sacrifice." Almost filling their stomachs, the two priests stood up and stood respectfully on either side of Mao Kai, one of them said in a solemn tone.

The word sacrifice seemed to be very important to the tree people, and the scene of the chaos suddenly fell silent, as if the previous scene was just acting, and now everyone had torn off their disguises.

"Click, click...", the two of them naturally did not engage in specialization to attract attention, and the whole banquet was only the sound of Mao Kai chewing sheep bones.

Unhurriedly gnawed the bones in his hand, Mao Kai didn't even look at the two priests, slowly stood up and stretched.

"If only I could rest." The meaning of the unclear words said, Mao Kai turned around and walked like a high platform behind him, the two priests each took out something from their arms and handed it over, Lin Shuai sat far away, and could only vaguely see that it looked like two stones of different colors, which would not reflect light, and should not be crystals.

"Thank you to the goddess of life for giving us life." Mao Kai's first sentence first praised the goddess of life, the life on the continent is theoretically the seeds sown by the goddess of life, and they all respect her from the bottom of their hearts, especially the creatures in this forest, the goddess of life is their only belief.

Mao Kai didn't seem to have the habit of ink, and after praising the goddess of life, he directly held the two stones in his hand high, "The sacrifice begins, please the divine spring." ”

Lin Shuai clearly heard that the tree man beside him seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and said to the other tree people in a relaxed tone, "It's okay this year, goddess bless." ”

What did he mean by that? Could it be that every year Mao Kai does not cooperate with this sacrifice, their strange behavior is to prepare Mao Kai to violently capture him once he resists?

Just as he was thinking about it, a blue-green light suddenly rose on the stage, which came from the two stones, one stone emitted a white light, and the other stone was dark green, and when they were mixed together, they became the current color.

The turquoise light was dazzling for a moment, and in this small square, even the light of the sun was suppressed, and Lin Shuai had to squint his eyes slightly to look directly at that light.

In the light, Mao Kai closed his eyes tightly, his hands kept in a state of high prayer, and the two stones had already flown off the ground into the air, blending together and faintly condensing into a blue light the size of a millstone.

"Domo Salamo ......" There was a long and obscure incantation from the stage, and Mao Kai was chanting loudly, completely unable to understand what it meant, just like the incantation chanted by a mage when he released high-level magic, which did not belong to the common language of the mainland.

"Nature is the truest state of balance, eating while avoiding being eaten."

At the end of the spell, Mao Kai muttered again with an unknown meaning, because the effect of the magic microphone spread throughout the audience, and it did not belong to the scope of the spell, the two priests looked at each other with some doubts, but the divine spring had appeared, and Mao Kai had no ability to play any tricks.

As the spell ended, the turquoise light finally solidified, and a clear spring floated in the air so abruptly, and the water seemed to come from the void and magically poured into the pool less than half a meter wide.

The two priests hurriedly pulled out a large pile of glowing green crystals from their carry-on storage space.

"Thank you for the gift of the Great Elder." As he spoke, the two priests leaned forward and slowly knelt down in front of Mao Kai, raising the crystal in their hands above their heads.

This action caused a series of reactions, and all the tree people suddenly left their seats without warning and fell to their knees, just like the ancient kings did when they went to court, leaving the two at a loss, but fortunately no one paid attention to them.

"What's going on, isn't it going to rebel, why are you still kneeling?" Lin Shuai was surprised in the team channel, of course he wouldn't think that these people were kneeling Maokai, but he was surprised what kind of ceremony the sacrifice was, it was so grand.

"Nativity ceremony." Zero said softly, his eyes glanced around, and took advantage of the time when the uncle next to him knelt down, and quietly put a large barrel of Baijiu fruit wine on the table into the backpack......

"Every year at this time, you always have a lot of respect for me." Mao Kai didn't pick up the crystals, and said sarcastically.

"We have always had a lot of respect for you." The priest said calmly, "It's just that you haven't liked our respect. ”

"If the respect you mean is to force me to drain my strength to bleed you every year, then forget it." The sound of the two men talking was heard through the entire square through the magic microphone.

"Ugh." The treeman who had just said that it was okay sighed again, and the two priests stood up, and the treemen all stood up.

"The Divine Spring has been opened, Great Elder, you better do it happily, otherwise the punishment of the Goddess of Life is not something you can bear." The priest was no longer respectful to Maokai's tone, and took on the slightest hint of threat.

The atmosphere of the entire square suddenly changed with his words, and an invisible slaughter began to permeate, Lin Shuai noticed that a group of heavily armed tree warriors appeared around the square, these people were not at the banquet before, and Mu Tuo, who had not been seen since the banquet began, was also among them.

"Anyway, it's going to be a fight." Although he had expected that something was wrong, Lin Shuai still didn't expect that the two sides would break up so simply, and the scene in front of him was that the whole village was dealing with Mao Kai alone.

"It's been 20 years, Mu Sen, you have tormented me for 20 years." Mao Kai sighed and said with some sadness, "You know, I used to have peace, but it was all broken by you. ”

"This is the choice of the goddess of life." The priest whose name was called said mercilessly.

"Hmph." Mao Kai sneered twice, "The goddess of life treats all things equally, and she will not interfere in the creation of a life that is born to be sacrificed. ”

"The moment the Great Elder sees you, you should know that there is no way out." Another priest said that the Great Elder he was talking about was naturally not Mao Kai, but their previous Great Elder.

"Huh, who would have thought that the seemingly most respected Great Elder of your Tree People Clan would actually be the most tragic person." Mokai scoffed.

"The Great Elder voluntarily gave his life for the birth of a newborn." Mu Sen said reverently, in fact, every Great Elder of the Tree People Tribe was elected by them voluntarily, but I don't know why, the previous Great Elder passed on the mission to Mao Kai, who was an outlier.

"I'm not as stupid as they are!" Mao Kai suppressed his laughter and tore off his ceremonial clothes.

"You're going to rebel again." Mu Sen's tone was a little helpless, this is where the drawbacks lie, in the past, there had never been a clan forcing the Great Elder to sacrifice for thousands of years, but they had experienced a full 19 years, and it would be 20 years soon.

"The mission of inheritance is on your back, your life will not end, and you will never be able to resist the arrangement of fate, why don't you understand."

"Of course I understand that at this time of year, even if I hide to the ends of the earth, the power is still tormenting me!" Mao Kai said hatefully.

Of course, he tried to escape, but as long as the god's birthday was approaching, his whole body would be in irrepressible pain, and of course the pain could be endured, but the power passed on to him before the previous Great Elder died could actually control his body! That was the spiritual will of countless tribal elders over the ages, no matter how strong he was, he couldn't resist it, so he could only watch his body walk back to the Treant Tribe step by step!

That kind of pain was unbearable for him, who had always longed for freedom.

"But—" Maokai's voice became a little eerie, and the green light in his eye sockets was silently mixed with a wisp of black.

"This life has long been out of the trajectory of fate."

As soon as the words fell, Mao Kai's eyes shone brightly, and a rich black aura gushed out from all parts of his body, and the cold wind blew invisibly, and the entire square was shrouded in darkness, only the pool of water still shone with pure light.

"Ahh Ahhh Mokai howled in pain, "You will taste remorse, you forced me!" ”
