Chapter 1435: The Tree of Life
"I don't understand why you would choose the divine power as the filler, do you think it will make you feel more like a living being?" Swell asked puzzled, in other words, he would definitely choose a powerful magical element as Mr. Zero's filler, so that Mr. Zero's power can be maximized.
"It's not up to me to decide. Mr. Zero replied dryly. Swell couldn't tell from his emotionless tone whether he was resentful or resentful.
"Could it be that the divine power that now fills your body comes from the crown of Gyllenhaal?" Swell guessed, and only the former Pope, whose fickle personality, would have made such an unexpected choice. And Mr. Zero calls him his master, which is enough to prove everything.
"The master condensed his life's divine power and poured it into my body as a filler before he fell. Mr. Zero confirmed Swell's speculation.
"So you're still the embodiment of Gyllenhaal's crown. Swell said. He knew that divine magic could be cultivated to the extreme, and he could condense the life mark, even if the physical body had died, he could still inject the life mark into another life's body, and continue to survive in a situation similar to reincarnation or relinquishing. It is likely that Gyllenhaal's crown used this method to make Mr. Zero a continuation of life.
"No, it's not. Because the materials used to make me were too special for the master's life mark to linger in my body for a long time, he eventually fell in earnest. Mr. Zero still insisted on denying it. But there is still a message in his words that Swell has keenly captured, that is, the previous pope did have this intention at first, but it eventually failed due to some kind of accident.
"Okay. Could you please tell me what exactly was made of you?" asked Swell, with a long breath. In this way, he had intended to try to get out of the realm of the previous Pope's oracle foresight, but it didn't seem to work well, and he finally had to ask the question, which was obviously already ready for answer.
"My skeleton was carved from a section of the trunk of the Tree of Life. Mr. Zero's answer moved Swell.
"The Tree of Life!" Swell exclaimed, "how is this possible?"
The Tree of Life "Axel", also known as the World Tree, is the mother of the entire world, and it is she who gave birth to the twelve main gods and their divine realms, as well as the main space of the Ariant continent and countless subordinate planes. It has disappeared into the void as early as antiquity.
Although the elves, one of the three major races in the continent, claim that the big tree they live in, "Watheim", is the embodiment of the tree of life, and the enviable long life of the elves comes from the nourishment of Watheim, almost all races believe that it is the propaganda of the elves themselves to put gold on their faces.
Especially after the Great War of the Ten Thousand Races, with the seclusion of the elves, the Watheim they lived in disappeared from the continent, this statement is even more verifiable, but one thing is certain, that is, the trunk of the tree of life definitely belongs to the top treasure of the continent, and the entire continent is a legendary existence, and no one has ever heard of it.
Now Mr. Zero actually said that the bones of his whole body were carved from a section of the trunk of the Tree of Life, and if he hadn't lied, it would have been enough to make the entire continent go crazy.
Even Swell, who has always been heartbroken, unconsciously brought a trace of heat to Mr. Zero's eyes when he heard the news at first glance, this is really a baby bump!
"I know you're still suspicious, so I'll give you proof. Mr. Zero said to himself. He gently cut off a small piece of his finger with the finger knife just now, peeled off the skin, and handed the "bone joint" to Swell, "You can test it yourself, even this small piece of bone is still full of life." Only the trunk of the Tree of Life has such an effect. ”
After Swell took it, he sensed it carefully, and found that it was indeed the case, he still did not believe in evil and injected a little divine power, this bone joint immediately exuded a rich life force, and then injected it into his body along his arm, almost instantly replenishing the divine power he had consumed.
Now Swell was completely convinced that only the Tree of Life had this ability to feed, and it was no wonder that Mr. Zero said that he could accept other magical elements as fillers. Theoretically, the Tree of Life, which gave birth to the twelve main gods, has the broadest tolerance in the entire continent, and all energies can be perfectly compatible with her and exert the greatest effect.
"Mr. Zero, I've verified it, I believe what you say. Now hurry up and take this joint back, the news about the Tree of Life must not be leaked for half a minute, otherwise it will cause great trouble. After a flash of burning in Swell's eyes, he firmly handed the trunk back.
Mr. Zero put his hand behind his back and did not accept the trunk: "This trunk belongs to you now." As long as you help me with Plan X, that's one of your rewards. ”
"It's so precious. Even if you don't have this reward, with Gyllenhaal's edict, I will do my best to help you complete Project X. Swell said after swallowing hard. It is impossible to say that he is not interested in this trunk, but he knows the truth of his guilt, with his strength, he simply cannot keep this precious trunk, and the strong man who gets the news will come and tear him to pieces like a shark that smells blood in order to get this trunk.
"This trunk is necessary for you to complete Project X, otherwise this plan would not be able to be kept secret. Mr. Zero insisted.
"I'm sorry, I don't quite understand your words. Swell was stunned, isn't this trunk the reward for completing the plan?
"Project X is a big deal and must be kept secret until it is completed. Once you are involved in this project, you will not be able to communicate with the outside world, and you must have a foolproof plan to avoid unnecessary trouble. Mr. Zero said.
"Do you have to cut off contact with the outside world to join Project X?" Swell was shocked when he heard this, something he hadn't expected before.
"And your identity is sensitive, if you don't show up for a long time, you will definitely attract countless inquirers, and then the secret will be preserved. You know how much trouble this kind of plan can cause if it leaks out. Mr. Zero's answer silenced Swell. Only then did he realize what a huge pit the previous Pope had dug for him.
As soon as Swell heard it, he understood that Mr. Zero was by no means alarmist. Don't look at Swell's being played by the previous Pope, it's because the other party's status is too high, even if he is replaced by Ishtar, he doesn't dare to have any objections to this, knowing that there is an abyss in front of him, he has to jump head-on.
