Chapter 768
"My ...... Brooks is alive," Hildo squeezed out a sentence. She and Santis gathered around Garrod, who was unconscious. He had bruises all over his face and scars on his arms. At the Templar's prayers, several wounds on his body began to heal, leaving a few traces of dried blood.
Garrod's sister stood up with a terrible look on her face. She stared fiercely at Brooks and drew her weapon.
"No, Hildo!" Zeling commanded.
"He almost killed my Blox!"
Zeling stood in front of her. But he didn't succeed. You have no right to decide his fate. It should be Garrod in charge. She looked at Zeratul, "You said yes, right?" ”
He nodded sadly. "It should be up to him to decide, I have nothing to say." Zeratul shook his head again, "So that's why he was standing on the shore of Karanin's Well that day. ”
"I didn't know he had collected some more lake water." Ze Ling said apologetically.
Zeratul seemed to suddenly realize something, and he knelt beside Brooks. Blox's breathing had become normal, and his body suddenly stiffened again when Zeratul appeared beside him. Zeratul fumbled in Brooks' pocket.
"There are at least four more bottles...... He could have turned the lake into another well of Calanline. ”
"Isn't there a way to restore it to its original state?"
Crassus stood in the crowd the whole time, quietly watching what was happening. At this point, the consul finally spoke: "There is no way...... There's nothing we can do. It's already flooded. ”
"But we can make it another power, so that its nature is not as sinister as the Well of Calanline," said Auphilo. ”
The archon's eyes widened sharply: "Ah! Of course! ”
Zeratul hurriedly turned his head away. He asked, "How do you do that?" ”
The three giant worms looked at each other a few times and nodded in agreement. Ophiro looked at the star spirits present again: "We're going to plant a tree." ”
"A tree?" Zeratul looked at Crassus. Hopefully he can give an explanation.
But the archon's expression remained the same, and he simply replied, "Not a tree." It's the tree. ”
Soon after, they began performing ceremonies in order to reduce the impact of Brooks' bad behavior. Brooks was locked up in case he caused any more trouble. Garrod's sister offered to keep him guarded until he was finally put on trial. Under the treatment of Santis and Hildo, Garrod came to his senses. He insisted that he should not be the only one to judge Brooks, and that Zeratul's opinion was also important.
With the exception of Crassus, Rasen, and the Giant Worm. Only the Star Spirit was present. The Guardian Giant Worm did this for the sake of the Zerg, who had suffered so much and did not want the tragedy to happen again. The aristocracy, the upper class of the stars, and representatives of what was once the lower class came together. The other survivors gathered at the bottom of the mountain, and although they couldn't witness the ritual in person, they knew in their hearts that it would have a huge impact on their future.
Zeratul and the others invited came to an island in the middle of the lake. Although the sacred mountain of Caranline is towering above the sky, the summit is warm and pleasant. Maybe it became warmer after being affected by the ban.
"It's beautiful." Ze Ling said in a low voice.
"I hope it lasts," Zeratul replied melancholy. He was still thinking about Brooks.
He had come up with some ways to deal with Brooks, but the thought of putting them into practice made Zeratul heartbroken. But apparently Brooks can no longer be trusted. He lost his mind and killed many people.
His belief that the Star Spirit needed a new Well of Calanline to defend itself against a possible future attack by the Burning Legion was not enough to explain his heinous crimes.
The Star Spirits are forced to struggle to adapt to daytime combat, although their nature is adapted to being active at night. However, Garrod and the giant worm agreed to assemble at noon. Aufilo explained that the highest point of the sun was crucial to their matter, and Garrod would not argue with the giant worm.
The island is a good size, but the island is just tall thatch and nothing else. At the request of Ofero. The group chose the location of the tree in the middle of the island. Three giant insects stood very close around the center of the island.
The worm of life first began this ritual. "The planet El is devastating." Her voice rolled as the others nodded in agreement, and Ofero continued, "Among them, the Star Spirit has suffered the most loss. Your race is not unrelated to all this, but the sufferings and trials you have endured have saved you from blame. ”
A few Star Spirits glanced at the upper Star Spirits in embarrassment, but no one objected.
The palm of the bloodworm is slowly lowered. There is a seed that looks like an acorn in the palm of his hand, and it snuggles up like a baby.
Zeratul stared at the seed, feeling a tingling sensation in his heart.
"The seed is taken from the mother tree, Garnier." She said to the crowd.
Zeratul remembered the home of the deceased demigod Viana.
"Garnier is gone, and after the death of its mistress, it withered and died, but the seed survived. We're going to plant it as a big tree. ”
The Little Tiger Head Emperor stretched out a paw, and suddenly cut a hole in the ground that was not big or small. Orfilo gently placed the seed in the hole, and Cathera pushed the earth back into the hole.
Ophero looked up at the sun. Then, she and the other two insects leaned down and leaned their heads closer to where the seeds were buried.
"I give strength and health to the Star Spirits, and your life is with the tree." Aufilo announced.
As she spoke, a soft red glow emanated from her body, shooting towards the small mound. At the same time, the sunlight on the mound became more intense, radiating in all directions of the lake. Some of the Star Spirits were suddenly a little uneasy, but everyone still stood there silently.
Zeratul felt a warm sensation appear in his body, and he instinctively grabbed Zeling's hand. She didn't dodge, her hands tightened.
At this time, signs of movement appeared under the small mound. It's like a small creature burrowing into the ground, and the dirt on the mound is pushed to the side.
In the blink of an eye, the seed turned into a small sapling.
When the sapling had grown to a yard high, some shoots sprouted from it. Lush green leaves suddenly emerge from these twigs, forming a beautiful canopy.
Aufilo then took a small step back, and then the Little Tiger Head Emperor spoke, his voice mixed with a slight hiss: "The Star Spirit will once again take time into their own hands, and I will make them continue to live forever, and always have the opportunity to learn, and be with the tree......"
After saying that, a yellow aura emanated from his body, which was the same as the light emitted by the bloodworm, merging with the sunlight. The light drifted through the small sapling into the mound.
The small tree began to grow again, and it was already twice as tall as the Star Spirit, and everyone was stunned. The leaves on the trees are getting thicker and thicker, green and full of hope. The branches of the tree also gradually become thicker, showing vigor and vitality. The roots of the tree grow to the ground, as if they had many legs. The space under the roots of the tree was large enough to seat a few Star Spirits.
The Little Tiger Head Emperor nodded, and then, like Ofhiro, stepped back. Only Cathera remained.
Cathera examined the tree with her eyes closed. Despite its rapid growth, the tree is still short in front of giant insects.
"To the Star Spirits who have lost hope, I have restored your ability to dream. To be able to dream, to imagine boldly, because dreams have the greatest hope of rebuilding their homeland, regrouping, and continuing to develop......" She seemed ready to repeat what the two worms had done before, but she stopped again, and her head turned to Zeratul, "To those who follow my dear - my love, I give him and the other Zeratul the opportunity to enter the Emerald Dream Realm, and while they are asleep, they too can pass through that world, gain something from the dream, and use the power of the dream...... Better guide the health and safety of Planet El in the days to come. ”
Zeratul swallowed, not knowing how to answer. He felt everyone's eyes turn to him, and he felt Zeling touch him proudly.
Cathera looked at the tree again...... A blood-colored aura emanated from his body. Like the first two insects, her light first merged with the sunlight and then dived into the trees.
