The overwhelming battle ended instantly, and the bone spear sliced through the struggling vines, splattering black blood. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Iwamoto in front of him vomited blood, was stabbed in the shoulder by a fallen female gunner, and fell in front of Tang Ze.

“・・・”

Looking at this "loyal" subordinate, Tang Ze regretted his naivety.

Even if the Seed of Greed was infinitely useful, with his strength at the time, it would be difficult for him to control a heroic druid. Why would a professional like Iwamoto Ten, after breaking free from the shackles of the "Hitomi Stone Tree", be willing to make himself a cow and a horse?

True loyalty is not in compliments, and after obtaining two special minions, he only slightly noticed Iwamoto's careful thoughts.

It was precisely because he was more human than Hitomi Rock Tree that he gave Iwamoto a chance to escape.

"I'm disappointed."

He was concise, but the disappointment was twofold.

On the one hand, Iwamoto Tian forcibly suppressed the [Greedy Seed] and tried to escape.

On the other hand, this druid thought that if he defected to the half-dead Pupil Stone Tree, he would be able to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.

As a result, it is only natural that such cleverness cannot be hidden under the power.

"Please, sir, please kill, kill me—"

Iwamoto coughed up a mouthful of blood sadly, burying his head in the soil in front of Tang Ze's feet, he didn't dare to raise his head, fearing that the effect of the [Seed of Greed] would become stronger.

The will to die is obvious, Tang Ze is a little unclear, Iwamoto Tian can be controlled by the Hitomi Stone Tree because of the "Green Demon Curse", but he can't serve himself because of the [Greedy Seed], maybe there is something he doesn't understand.

It's interesting that people's hearts change endlessly.

Tang Ze stared at Iwamoto Tian at his feet, narrowed his eyes, and his heart could give it a final try.

"You're too narrow-minded, Iwamoto."

Extremely standard Canduran.

Although it was only a bluff, Tang Ze clearly saw Iwamoto's body stiffen.

"Honor hides in the shadow of power, and swearing and spitting are only weapons for the weak to protect themselves."

"There are too many things that have no value, pompous reputations, vain praises, dirty justice, etc., you and I both know that the ultimate pursuit of power is definitely not the case."

Is Iwamoto bound by honor and dignity, or is it something else?

"Moreover, everything you have ever acquired will be inherited or taken away by those who come after you."

Tang Ze loosened his frowning brows and said lightly.

Buried in the shadows, Iwamoto's pupils shrank suddenly, touching a certain string in his heart.

"That's all Camp Rog has given you, and I can give you that too."

Tang Ze waved his hand, "Even more, including strength, including dignity, including glory, including truth." ”

After a long time, Iwamoto Tian, who was lying on the ground, grabbed the mud on the ground, slowly loosened it, and then spoke: "The ultimate thing I pursue is to protect my family, which is the root source that drives me to become a professional and kill demons." ”

"You're right, someone will inherit me, and he reassures me. I'm sorry, my lord... She's happy now, and so am I. ”

Tears slowly oozed from the corners of his eyes, painful and complicated, and as he clenched his fists hard, the rubble mixed in the mud pierced into his palm.

"Thank you for helping me lift the Green Goblin curse and give me a new lease of life, but I've repaid you."

"It's time for me to keep my old promise: Iwamoto Heaven can't be corrupted into a demon, and even if he becomes a degenerate, he can't be completely consumed by the shadows."

Unbeknownst to Karasawa, this was a vow made by Iwamoto Tenten and Matigal in front of the stone statue of Acala and the angel on the occasion of their marriage.

Comply with it no matter what.

"I see."

Tang Ze lowered his head, and for the first time looked at the muddy druid in front of him, and couldn't help but admire his will and loyalty.

As it turned out, the power of the [Greedy Seed] had not lost its effect, and Iwamoto was still loyal to him.

It's just that he somehow triumphed over control.

When it is really analyzed, love, honor, persistence, and will are all factors that he resists control.

But in the end, the reason why this druid overcame the control and ran away from the practice, and at the same time begged for his own death at this time, was because he had nothing to desire.

The tragedy called Iwamoto Heaven can already be brought to a happy end.

Without the emotion of greed, the effectiveness of the Seed of Greed is minimized.

"Thank you for your mercy, Your Excellency."

Sensing the weakening pressure on his head, Iwamoto was pleased to think that Karasawa understood his insistence.

Raising his head, under the gloomy rainy day, Tang Ze's red and black figure was extremely tall, exuding a strong intimidating force.

"NEW MESSAGE: Detected that the target has planted [Seed of Greed], will the [Greedy Projection] be released repeatedly?"

"New Message: Skill [Greedy Projection] has been released, [Seeds of Greed] quantity -1"

A tide of darkness swept in, and Iwamoto found himself in horror falling into the abyss, countless pitch-black colors completely blocking the faint light above his head.

The moment before he lost consciousness, he seemed to hear muffled voices.

"I don't like."

"Since the old Iwamoto Heaven is dead, you can serve me as the new Iwamoto Ten."

・・・

After quelling Yan Bentian's defection, Tang Ze gained a lot.

Although the half-dead zombie tree is a clone of the Hitomi Tree, it has no intelligence, and just attacks nearby creatures like ordinary monsters.

If it is allowed to grow, it may be a new pupil tree.

I tried to use coercion to subdue it, but unfortunately it didn't work.

After killing the zombie tree, I found some chests under a nearby tree with equipment inside, which was a surprise.

Under the leadership of Iwamoto, a lot of new zombies were captured, and there were a few pieces of equipment that could be used.

Tang Ze picked two of the best pieces of magic equipment.

Iwamoto also provided two other strongholds for the zombie tree (Hitomi Tree clone), and after completely clearing them, he also obtained some useless vanilla equipment or blue equipment that was not useful.

For example, [Staff of Swiftness], [Immortal Wrist Sword], [Normal Leather Armor] and the like.

The depraved female gunslinger next to her was used as a makeshift warehouse, with a large pile of equipment hanging on her body, and her face was expressionless.

The sweep soon ended, and the heavy rain that had lasted for a day and night gradually became lighter, and the deep dark night gradually spread purple light.

Dawn is coming.

Current zombie count: 120/200.

Glancing at the panel that Iwamoto respectfully presented, Tang Ze nodded, and finished the review.

"Master, the last three Pupil Tree strongholds have been eradicated, although there are still a few left, but it is no longer worth the loss to move at this time."

"It's time too."

The druid looked up at the night sky.

The whirlwind blew black feathers, and the dark crow swept down from the night and rested on his shoulder, his cold eyes fluttering.

Quack.

"My crow has detected that quite a few of Rog are led by professionals and have begun to sweep away demons and look for traces of the cemetery."

"At this time, it is best to integrate the team of Sinking Demons and take the opportunity to deal a fatal blow to the scattered professionals."

"Disrupt the steps of Rog's camp, we can find a place far away from the cemetery and let them fall into the fog."

Tang Ze raised his eyebrows with interest, and said bluntly: "So, you have already chosen a target?" ”

"Yes, two barbarians, an Amazon, and fifteen Rog archers."

"There aren't many opportunities for this kind of looting, uh, if the owner has a better choice..."

Realizing his transgression, Iwamoto was startled, and lowered his head in some panic, and the power of the two [Greedy Seeds] firmly bound him.

"I trust you, I'll leave now."

Tang Ze was calm on the surface, but he exhaled a long breath in his heart, he couldn't come up with any good ideas himself.

He's not a good strategist.

He didn't know the strength of Rog's camp, and he didn't have good exploration methods, which is why he had to control Iwamoto.

Only by taking the druid in front of him for his own use can he have the confidence to fight back against the professionals.
