Chapter 159: The Fruit of Jealousy
No one knew that while Boris and Zeus were trying to speed up the consumption of [the world], the ordinary lizardman who was the most hidden had already woken up.
He silently felt the consumption of magic power in his body, knowing that his [world] had been exposed, but he didn't make any moves, just watched the red sea gradually shrink and darken in color, and finally turned into a strange liquid dendritic body, and on the branches of the tree, a liquid in the shape of a fruit was being transformed into a solid.
At this time, he didn't know that his plans had changed unexpectedly, and he was just caught up in memories of the past.
LIZARDMEN'S NAMES ARE MOSTLY SIMPLE, MANY SPELL THEM OUT AS A WORD IN ENGLISH, AND TRANSLITERATED, HIS NAME IS SEYER!
When he was born, in the words of the elders of the clan, the entire [Divine Grace Pool] was boiling, and the people chanted his name, thinking that he could lead everyone to revival again.
As a branch of the underground world living in the Central Continent, although they occupy the largest underground world, they have not seen the sun for too long, and the existence of light moss is completely unable to meet the needs of the lizardmen who once stood in the sun.
What's more, there is magic on the ground that is a hundred times more peaceful than the underground world, which can greatly extend the life of the clan.
But this is how he failed, and the power of prophecy brought him only infinite despair, and any attempt by his prophetic foreknowledge to change the future was finally proven to make the future more unbreakable, the only change was that he saw death once, and in the end he survived.
What saved him was the habit of keeping a diary, and Sail would record the day's encounters with the diary in great detail every day, comparing the impact of yesterday to see how much the future had changed, and then one day, he used his prophetic ability to occasionally look at his diary for tomorrow, only to find that the diary saw a record of the tribe being invaded, and a pool of blood, and at the same time, he could no longer see the future in 2 days.
Cell, who knew it, would die tomorrow if he continued to stay in the tribe, no matter how much he struggled...... So he tries to change the future, and the diary keeps changing...... Tell the elders to get ready and mobilize their people to fight to the death...... But none of this worked, and the tribe inevitably perished......
Cell, holding his diary, and without telling any of them, he fled selfishly, and in the end, he only secretly took in some of the scattered remnants of the tribe, and with the core of the [Divine Grace Pool], he came to the surface world with the help of the prophecy to hide his identity.
The more proficient he is in the use of his abilities, the more he regrets his powerlessness in the past, and the more prophecies he sees, the more he finds that he can live in the future, and he will always be strong!
Celle understands that the future he sees will always have limitations, and when this future is added by more unknown factors, it will change, although this change may also be just a struggle, after all, the future is mighty, and those who go with it will prosper, and those who go against it will die.
But he still feels that as long as he can find his strongest future...... Then he will be able to fulfill all his ambitions. He wants to be strong, he wants eternal life......
The fruit that is now condensing is the first step.
Thinking about it, Cell's subconsciously looked in the direction of the fruit, the future where he became the strongest, but at this time, he was replaced by a vague figure.
"Click!" Cell's shocked stand up, only to find that his eyes were blurry, and he couldn't see anything clearly, which means that he had just seen a completely different future, and the future that had been arranged had been changed.
For him, this is simply incredible, you must know that before this strongest future, he has been planning for 200 years, if the future of the average professional is a good road, then he has paved the rails on this road, built the train, and guided the future step by step according to what he saw in the fastest and most stubborn way.
How could such a future be so easily changed, and if the future could be so easily changed, what was his struggle for so many years?
At this moment, Cell's heart was in turmoil.
......
But the ripening of the fruit does not stop because of Cell's thoughts!
The red fruit gradually ripened, and countless negative emotions echoed in it......
At its core, however, is jealousy, and the hatred that derives from jealousy......
"Why is it that in the same big battle, I was injured, missing arms and legs, he was worse than me, but nothing happened...... Hate, hate the impermanence of the world!"
"Why is it that he is also disabled for the Empire, he can have a fruit of life to continue his life, and he will be reborn with a severed limb, but it will not be my turn...... Hate, cruel and unpredictable."
"Why do people from outside come in to have shopping and leisure, while we have to revolve around the 'tree of life' all year round, not to mention a single fruit, and can only barely maintain food and clothing, are we people destined to live like this for generations...... Ruthless!
"Why...... Envy, jealousy, hatred...... Ahh
Countless negative emotions have matured with the [jealousy] of the seven deadly sins as the core, and the entire "tree of life" has actually become a receiver for collecting "jealousy" emotions for a thousand years.
It doesn't matter if it's a race, it's a mixed race, it's even a disabled human race...... These people, who were already slightly discriminated against, were collected from their negative emotions, and unwittingly became the reserve seeds of jealousy elves.
It's just that because of the barrier of the [world], even Edison didn't find out about this, at most he felt that the people in this city had the wrong mentality and dared to do anything for the sake of financial interests.
......
When the final moment came, the moment the fruit was ripe, Cell's eyes were fixed, and he still did not hesitate to take a step to impact the legendary realm, in order to become a legend, he had been preparing for too long, not only the legendary jealous elf could not be less, but even all the ninth-order professionals present would become his advanced sacrifices!
He couldn't care about the vague figure he would see in the future, and at this time the arrow was on the line, and whoever stopped him was killing whom—that's all.
But at this moment, the original manic elemental turbulence calmed down because of the disappearance of the [world], and Edison, who had been trying to come out in frustration, instantly appeared in the position of the fruit of jealousy!
[Fate] is like an undersmoked bear child!
At the moment when everyone at the scene did not react, the legendary lust/lust elf who was having fun in Edison's body appeared, and the dagger of despair naturally appeared in her hand.
The dagger gently slashed across the branches, interrupting the fruit's last step.
The huge fruit instantly became smaller than a grain of rice, like a grape, and was eaten by her "real name" in one bite, and her face showed a look of satisfaction!
"Rei", who had already fallen into deep meditation because of jealousy of the fruit, also opened her eyes.
In the distance, sensing the sudden appearance of Edison and the fruit of jealousy that disappeared in the next moment, Cell's mouth only had time to let out a hysterical cry:
"No~~" (To be continued.) )
