Section 516 Signs of decay
Blood Pupil side aside for the time being, the other side of the universe.
In a quiet and peaceful starry sky, countless green light clusters suddenly appeared, quickly gathered into a ball, and as a ray of light swept by, the huge tree-like mothership appeared. The appearance has hardly changed from before, except that the branches and foliage of the trees have become a little wilted.
On the huge trunk of the tree, countless Mana people began to get busy, inserting tendrils into their bodies, allowing the trees to absorb their flesh and fatten. A lot of people are sucked dry in the process. Reduced to pieces of dry wood carving. But most people have survived. Begin to bury the wood carvings of companions in some of the hollows of the giant ancient trees.
These Mana people who have lost their life energy are not dead, they are just dormant. When the Mothership of the Ancient Trees returns to its peak state, it will naturally awaken them again. What is really lost is a certain lifespan. In fact, the Mana people are recognized as a long-lived race in the universe. Losing decades or even hundreds of years of life is just a snap of a finger.
But...... These losses are either not taken into account by the Mana. But at this moment, in the core of the trees, that is, the bridge of the ordinary human mothership, the loss of one person made all the Mana people pale.
"Wow......" A vomiting sound sounded, and a woman covered in green vines lay on the side of the tree trunk and vomited. After only a while, he vomited and went limp. Behind her, hundreds of Mana girls served carefully, one by one for fear of provoking her displeasure.
And before these maids, there was a figure who was also dressed in green vines, and it was the girl who had been in contact with the Elts before. I saw that she was looking at the vomiting woman with a worried face at the moment, and involuntarily persuaded her.
"Lord Green Rain, should you return right away? This life reorganization is too harmful to you. If you can't get the healing of your ancestors...... You ......"
"Don't ...... Say no more. The vomiting woman waved her hand, gasping for air. After a while, he said intermittently.
"Humans, this time the two of them were dispatched. Without me...... You guys...... No one can stop it...... Little Frey, didn't you agree to the Elt's terms...... At all costs...... I can't let you down......"
"But, Lord Green Rain." The girl named Frey was almost crying. "Your body...... It's already in a period of decay...... If it continues like this...... You're about to go back to your ancestors. ”
The decay period is a nightmare for the Mana people, and it is also equivalent to human aging. It's just that the body of the Mana people is very special, to this stage. It's not just lives that are gone, it's their abilities. The Mana people believe in nature, dust to dust, and earth to earth. When all together are at peace. They will also return to the bosom of the ancestors. Leave no trace.
It can be said that the Mana people are the purest race in the entire universe, and they continue their natural trajectory from the moment they come and go. No one is working hard to increase their longevity. Because they believe that birth and death are natural arrangements.
Go with the flow. Return to nature.
This is the Mana people. The most famous plant civilization in the universe.
It's just that on this mothership now, the attenuation of green rain makes all Mana people feel cold.
Without it, the reason is that Green Rain is one of the only three remaining nuclear powerhouses in the clan. Nuclear energy level is a term for the ancient chaotic times. The rating range is roughly equivalent to that of the current planetary to stellar ratings. It belongs to the real high-end force. Every nuclear energy level is precious. The loss of any one of them would be an unbearable blow to the Mana people.
In fact, if it weren't for the Elt's strong demand, the Mana would not have been able to wade through this troubled water. The cosmic war has nothing to do with them, they are just a group of beings who conform to nature. Accustomed to natural selection of birth, old age, sickness and death, they have no interest in any information other than nature. It's just that since the time of the Great Chaos, the Mana people have long been integrated into the ranks of this cosmic civilization, and they can no longer be left alone. …,
In a sense, the Great Chaos contributed to the splendor of the Mana people. At the same time, they were also tied to the chariot of energy civilization.
"Hmm......" Lu Yu was about to speak, and began to vomit again. The face that was already green enough was even greener.
The reorganization of the lives she used to escape the dead old man and others was no joke. It is an advanced technique that only the Mana people can master. Through their unique life veins, they will be. Even certain carriers are broken down and recombined, thus crossing unimaginable spaces. Because the reorganization of life does not involve the rules of space, even a stellar-level powerhouse cannot stop it.
However, this comes at the cost of the user's own life energy. It's okay to say if it's an individual reorganization, but this time Green Rain has reorganized a mothership and all the members on it. It would be a lie to say that the losses are not significant.
She has already entered a period of decay, and her estimated lifespan is only 300 years (the Mana people have the longest lifespan in the universe). This reconstitution will consume at least fifty years of life. It's poison to her. What's more, as she approaches returning, her abilities are also rapidly decreasing. It is an irreparable loss to the entire Mana people.
All this is because of the task that Frey has just accepted......
Leaning on a tree trunk, Green Rain stared blankly at the starry sky in the distance. His face became greener and greener. There was still digestive juice that had just vomited out of his mouth. (The Mana people have both plant and biological characteristics)
"Frey ......"
"Lord Green Rain. Please take a break. Here's the dew and honey that was just collected today, and maybe it will make you feel better. The Qingteng girl in the back hurriedly said. At the same time, he motioned for the maids to bring things up.
"No...... No need......" Green Rain waved his hand. Motioned for them to stand down. That's when he said to Frey.
"It doesn't make sense to me anymore. My dear disciple. I already feel that the veins in my body are crumbling, and my life is withering. The gods of nature have stopped paying attention to me, and the day of my return to my ancestors is approaching. ”
"My lord......" Frey suddenly choked. I just felt like I had made a huge mistake.
In fact, this is the reason why the Mana people are involved in this mission. Mainly because she coveted the Elt's magic crystal. It is important to know that above the third realm, Mana energy and Elt magic guide crystals are almost synonymous with energy civilization. Almost all magic suits use both of these energy sources. Among them, the Elt Magic Guide Crystallization is even higher, and has always been regarded as one of the specialties of the nobility of the universe......
Naturally, Frey doesn't care about titles like the nobility of the universe. But what she cares about is the Elt Magic Crystal. The Mana have analyzed this crystal more than once and have come to the conclusion that if it can be integrated into the Mana civilization system, it will greatly alleviate the problem of Mana decay. Never before has more Mana people been able to evolve to a higher level.
It's just that she didn't expect the human reaction to be so fierce, not only sending two powerful mechanical motherships, but also two strong men who are enough to affect the balance of the world.
Dead old man and old woman.
The strength of these two people, even in the Third World Lu Realm, was enough to shock the energy civilization. So in order to get enough of an advantage. The Elts made a request to increase the amount of force. The Mana Council also had to send new reinforcements after some discussion.
That is Lord Green Rain, the patron saint of the Mana clan.
The Mana clan has a total of three nuclear powerhouses, and Green Rain is one of them. It's just that compared to the other two, Green Rain's lifespan is shorter, and it is about to return. This dangerous task fell to her. It shows how careful the Mana Council is with this mission. I am afraid that once I fail, it will affect the survival of the race. And Green Rain, as the strongest person who is closest to returning, naturally has the responsibility to make this mission. …,
It's just that no one expected it, and they didn't really enter the mission area yet. Green Rain was hit so hard.
Looking at Green Rain's increasingly decaying face, Frey regretted it incomparably. It would have been nice to know that Lu Dao was not so greedy. What is the benefit of this mission for the Mana people? Is it just for the Elt crystal? Let's not talk about whether the conditions for obtaining crystallization can be achieved, even if they do, will the Elts willingly offer the crystallized energy structure diagram? That was the highest level of energy in the Third Realm, or even the Second Realm, and it was really impossible to think about it.
But it's too late to say anything. Lord Green Rain has already paid the price. What Frey needs to think about is not to let this cost go to waste.
So look at the face of the green rain and ashes. She first turned blue, and then recruited a maid at random. Said coldly.
"Contact the Elts right away, and I'll know how long they plan to drag it out. We Mana have completed our mission, and if they cannot travel the promise, I will appeal to them. ”
"Yes, Mistress Frey." The maid immediately agreed, and hurried away.
The Mana have a unique way of communicating, and she is sure that she can connect with the Elts even over endless distances. All that is needed now is to wait in silence.
Looking at the back of the maid as she quickly departed, a trace of worry flashed in Frey's eyes. Turning to Green Rain, he said.
"Lord Green Rain, please go back to the capsule liquid depot and rest first. Your body is more important, this mission is not over, and there is still a lot to rely on you. ”
"It seems that this is the only way to go." Green Rain also sighed and nodded helplessly.
The sac reservoir is where the roots of the ancient tree mothership are located. It is of all life energy. In normal times, no Mana would have entered it, because it would be harming the life of the mother tree. But at this moment, Green Rain doesn't have much choice, and for the next journey, she must maintain enough combat power. And the capsule fluid bank was her only option.
But before she could start, the maid from before she ran in again. Exclaimed anxiously.
"Mistress Frey, there's a response from the Elts. They say that the entry path of the target has been found, but it will take time to crack it, and they ask us to block the human mothership again!! “
"What !?"
This time it was not only Frei, but Lu Yu's face also changed......
There was a flash of yellow. (To be continued)
