Chapter 60: Persistence

Although the vole sensed Somnium's magical fluctuations when Qilu disappeared, he still didn't believe that Qilu was Somnium, even though Sixteen Nights and Peach had thought so. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's a fantasy, and everything you see can be an illusion. Just now, the vole had personally experienced the power of the illusion, so now he didn't dare to be careless.

If you make this bet, you may fall into a trap!

Voles don't believe what "Qilu" says. He stood in the darkness and glanced at the hysterical dove.

Let's take advantage of the fact that the situation has not deteriorated now, and hurry up!

With this in mind, the vole flipped his wrist and turned into a knight's spear again. He retreated with his right leg and threw his spear forward with his left foot as the center of gravity.

Naturally, the vole's spear did not kill the dove with one blow, and he did not think that he would succeed in one shot. After all, the power of this illusion was too strong, and he didn't plan to go toe-to-toe with it.

Sure enough, the scene in front of me has changed dramatically.

The footage is fast-forwarding like a video. During this period, a lot of things happened to the dove, who was the main character.

The vole stood in place, looking at the bloody but true story. Like Sixteen Nights, he was able to quickly locate the monsters. Not only because his own magic is a judgment attribute, but also because of their special eyes.

As the story progresses, the seeds of the Tree of Greed take root in the dove's body. The dove is just as he had expected from a vole - a tragic background, an inspirational experience, a constant encouragement to his sister, and a spurring on his stepmother in all directions.

But such an experience does not resonate with voles. It's not because he thinks the dove is doing something wrong. On the contrary, he was very much in favor of the dove's approach.

The dove did not kill people and set fires, everything was moving forward according to the most correct path: endure humiliation and hard work.

But such a dove, the demonic beast on its body is endlessly absorbing energy. This is tantamount to showing that some kind of negative emotion in him is growing wildly.

That's the burden of desperate longing. The more you desire, the heavier the burden, and the farther away from anticipation.

It's a vicious circle.

You must stop him!The vole kept shouting in his heart, he was a divine beast, with powers similar to those of a true god.

Regardless of the constraints of the human world, he used his divine power to forcibly change the vision of the illusion.

He makes the dove meet the same person, he makes the dove go through a story beyond the pain, and even the sister in the story convinces the dove to give up his longing.

However, the dove looks down on his fellow who has given up politics, forces himself not to indulge in pleasure, and when his sister cries and begs him: "Brother, don't torture yourself", he blames the injustice of the world and his own incompetence.

"I just want to get my fair share back! I don't want to cheapen that woman. What's wrong with me?

These plots take the story in a bad direction. The Tree of Greed sees the dove's desire for happiness and makes him go sideways.

At this point in the story, the vole feels that there is nothing he can do. He couldn't change this dove, and due to his excessive use of divine power, he was now at the end of his crossbow.

"Hmph, what else are you talking about? The vole was not angry, he was unable to save the protagonist, and he was very annoyed. The more he remembered what "Qilu" said before, the more unhappy he became.

"What's wrong with the bet?" Qilu reappeared next to the vole, looking a little pale. But perhaps this is an illusion created by light and shadow.

"What's wrong!" said the vole, glancing down at Qilu. He didn't think that this person was the strange road he knew, and he deceived himself and said: This must be a monster in the illusion!

"I said he could come out on his own. Qilu said it calmly, but his eyes were clear and firm. "If you don't believe it, keep watching. ”

The more he struggles, the farther away he is from his expectations. He felt as if the world was working against him, always letting him pass by what he wanted and drift away.

In this way, the tree of greed grew bigger and bigger in his heart.

Finally, one day, the tree was already visible to the naked eye.

"Boy, do you want power, make a contract with me!"

This is the usual line used by monsters to promote themselves, and the voles who are the audience can't help but complain in their hearts about this incompetent plot. But the dove in the middle of the matter seemed to see hope. Without the slightest hesitation, he agreed.

"I want power, I want the ability to change the world!"

"If I give you my power, it will be a disservice to myself. Therefore, I need you to feed me, or I will kill your nearest and dearest. ”

"The closest person ......" Hearing this, the dove hesitated slightly, but this hesitation did not last long. He raised his head, a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth: "I'm already alone, if I don't feed you, what can you do to me?"

The Tree of Greed was silent, not knowing if he was regretting it or if he had something else to think about.

"Come on!" Born in the wizarding world, Dove has read books since he was a child, and should know how to make contracts.

Wouldn't this be the case! Wouldn't there be no way back if this continued? The vole tried to stop it, but he was stopped by Qilu again.

The vole was in a hurry.

"Don't think you're a kid and you can't do anything!" shouted the vole.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not a child. Qilu said seriously. He held a joystick in his hand, and from the four corners of the joystick extended olive-like branches, tightly binding the vole's posture.

"What are you going to do?" the branches were so tightly bound that the vole couldn't break free at all.

"Please take a good look, he will find his opposite. ”

With the help of the Tree of Greed, the dove became a smooth sailor. He got his wish and pulled his stepmother down from the high position and won the public's expectations. The family business began to develop in a good direction, and all the people under it were happy and happy.

That's what I want! I can bring happiness to more people than that extravagant woman!

There was a feeling of satisfaction in the heart of the dove.

"Now, it's time to feed me. ”

The dove glanced at the tree with disdain. He knew that the plant monster did not eat fertilizer, but living creatures. With a hint of "gratitude", Dove buys back a batch of living animals from the slaughterhouse and feeds them all to the Tree of Greed.

"So you are content. ”

The Tree of Greed didn't speak, not knowing if it was a food trap or if it was something else he thought.

The status of the dove is getting higher and higher, and the profit is getting bigger and bigger. The family began to grow, and more people came to him. The dove took them under his command one by one. He also found the former person who was in sympathy with the disease and gave him help.

"It's time for you to feed me. ”

The dove frowned, and he asked, "Why do you still want to eat?"

So the dove bought back the live animals from the slaughterhouse, this time five times as much as the last time. He thought that he would be able to get close for a while.

Without the stress of life, he began to revisit his previous happiness. He made a lot of friends, and most importantly, he was able to bring a smile back to the smile of the only sister he loved.

It made him feel satisfied.

"I'm hungry. ”

The begging of the Tree of Greed became more and more mundane, and the dove was already impatient.

"If you quarrel again, I'll cut you off!"

The Tree of Greed was silent for a long time before it spoke, "You can try. ”

"Do you think I won't dare?" said that, the dove turned into a scythe and slashed at the demonic beast.

His blade slashed a vine from the beast, and at the same time he had an additional wound on his arm.

"What's going on?!"

"You should know that you and I are connected to the same air. ”

The dove began to become worried.

However, this is not a big problem. Now he has money to buy enough live animals from the slaughterhouse.

Until one day-

"I don't want to eat cattle and sheep, I want to eat people!"

Although the dove is paranoid, he has his own principles. He wouldn't have agreed to such a thing. Helplessly, the monster was already strong enough, and he had already threatened the dove itself.

"I need you to feed me, or I'm going to kill your nearest and dearest.

One by one, his subordinates died, and his family began to become a terrifying place of death.

"I'll kill your nearest and dearest. ”

Even so, the dove still can't kill him.

When the contract was concluded, the dove did not expect that the future would be like this.

In the end, only his dear sister was left in the family.

He finally couldn't take it anymore, he picked up his scythe and slashed at the Tree of Greed. With each slash, a splash of blood would splatter from the tree, and an additional wound would appear on his own body.

The branches of the tree of greed were cut and grew, broken and reborn. It's simply an endless battle.

Finally, the dove sat down on the ground weakly.

"No, I don't want anything!"

The dove's appearance was frozen in front of me. Qilu untied the vole's shackles, and he clapped his hands.

"I said he was able to come out on his own. There was a hint of joy in Qilu's tone.

Voles have nothing to refute. Indeed, at the last moment, the dove regretted it. This is more effective than any persuasion.

And this is an illusion, and the dead are not real humans, so they didn't cause a tragedy.

But......

"And how do you deal with that beast?" the vole asked, pointing to the wildly growing Tree of Greed.

Kiru glanced up at the vole, then turned his head to look straight ahead. He bowed slightly, and a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"How could it have escaped. ”

The vole felt that he might have some auditory hallucinations. He seemed to hear a sense of revenge in Qilu's tone. He looked intently at Qilu.

Qilu hugged the doll tighter and tighter, and between his eyebrows and eyes showed a determination that was not suitable for his age.
