Chapter 10: The Will of the World
Because Rena established the teleportation coordinate anchor point, coupled with the recovery power of the Moon Demon Powder, the succubus took Anno without any accidents, and they were directly teleported to the deepest part of the Turbid Abyss together smoothly.
Upon arriving here, Anno looked above the corpse of the Mother of Doom as if she had felt something.
As Rena quickly unraveled the concealment technique, the hidden body of her in-game body immediately appeared in front of Anno.
The succubus nervously tried to explain the situation to Anno, but was stopped by the elf with a raised hand.
After that, Anno emitted a dark green natural light, and then closed his eyes and suspended his body in the air directly opposite, as if he was sensing something.
Soon after, the elf opened his eyes again, and with a flick of his wrist, the box he had taken out of the room appeared in his palm.
After Anno quickly opened it, Liao Ji found that there were many things inside, and they were all extremely precious... No, if you put it in the game, it is estimated that it will be a special item of the "Unique" level.
The seed of the leyline, the sunflower sunflower, the mermaid's tears, the snow lotus seed, the manro flower, the first leaves of the world tree...
What the elf took out of the box was a leaf that exuded the smell of antiquity.
The first leaves of the World Tree.
Unlike ordinary World Tree leaves, the first leaf is the first leaf that grows at the beginning of the birth of the World Tree, and its effect is...
Liao Ji recalled the words of Professor Einz at that time.
The World Tree is the connection of souls.
It is rumored that every leaf of the World Tree stores a part of the soul of the elves, and the elves are connected by the sacred World Tree.
Liao Ji really understands this, in fact, from the cyber version of the world tree that can connect the servants and form a network of servants.
And Anno, as the most powerful elven species, the elven soul stored in the most powerful "first leaf"...
It should be Anno's own soul.
The next elves, seemingly trying to put the leaves in the mouths of their in-game characters, quickly fail because they are unable to take off their cloaks.
Yes.
This is something that "they" in the game have never done and dare not do, so it is the first time that Anno has tried to take off his cloak for Lord Ash.
However, it is like the force of rules, and then restrain them, prohibiting this act of "taking off the cloak", no matter what they do, they will not see their true face at all.
"How... Damn it! Why! Why can't you take it off! ”
Rena went crazy, but Anno quickly changed her strategy and resolutely used her magic power to crush the precious "First Leaf" into pieces and turn it into powder, and then directly sprinkled it on her game character.
Liao Ji saw that after doing this, Annuo's breath suddenly withered a lot, and his body seemed to be a little shaky, because the act of grinding the first leaf was equivalent to grinding his own soul, and the pain in such a soul would not be much less than being cut by a thousand knives in the body.
Even so, Anno still didn't make the slightest sound, and soon operated the secret method of the elven clan, as a "guard system", Anno has more protection capabilities, one of which is... Soul Link.
"It worked... Succeeded, Sister Anno! ”
"The loss of the soul of the Gray Lord is slowing down! Fast! Sister Anno, bring back the soul of the gray adult! ”
After Anno connected his soul to the Gray Emperor, it could be seen from Rena's breathing a sigh of relief and extremely excited voice that it had indeed worked.
However...
Anno's answer next made the expression on Rena's face instantly freeze and stiffen.
"I'm sorry Rena, I... Can't do it. ”
"What... What did you say! Why! Is the enemy too strong? No, the Mother of Doom has been exterminated by the Ashes Adult, what else... What else can threaten Lord Ash, what the hell..."
Rena was a little incoherent, very different from her former image of intelligence, or rather, a little broken.
But what the succubus didn't expect was that Anno shook his head again.
"No, not an enemy."
"After being linked to the soul of Lord Ash, although I can't fully understand it, I can vaguely feel that Mohu will become what it is now, this is... Ash the will of the adults themselves. ”
Self... Own will?
In other words, is it the Gray Lord himself who is dividing the soul?
Are you kidding!
"Anno, what the hell are you talking about!
”
"You mean, Lord Grey is deliberately leaving us?"
"No, not to leave us."
After a pause, Annuo sighed and said, "Lord Ash, you are leaving this world. ”
"Now there are two forces, one is the power to divide the soul and body of the Ash Adult, this I can stop, and I have stopped it, but the other one, that is, the will of the Ash Adult, if the Lord insists on leaving, I... There's nothing we can do about it. ”
"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible, Anno you must be mistaken, impossible! Right... It must be the first force you said is doing tricks, didn't you say, there is no enemy, what is the first force! ”
Rena shook her head frantically, the succubus not accepting Anno's explanation.
"I've been vaguely aware of this force before, and just now, when I tried to remove the cloak of the Gray Lady, I was completely sure that the two forces were the same one."
"They are... The power of rules. ”
"Regulation... The power of rules? "Rena had never heard of that term.
Seeing that the succubus didn't understand, Anno changed his words.
"You can think of it as, the will of the world."
"You mean, Lord Grey is actually the embodiment of the will of the world? The savior who saved us, nurtured us, ate with us, fought together, experienced many together, created empires together, and defeated turbidity together was not a living creature at all, but only the will of the world, an illusory concept? ”
Rena seemed to be laughed at angrily, and asked Anno in a hurried tone with great anger.
Fortunately.
Anno's answer was no.
"No, quite the opposite."
"Lord Ash is not the embodiment of the will of the world, but the will of the world... At this moment, I want to replace and become the embodiment of the gray adult. ”
Anno's words seemed to break Rena's worldview all along, and the succubus still couldn't understand, let alone understand, how Anno knew so much.
"World Tree."
"Let's transfer the body of Lord Ash to the World Tree, where Rena should be able to understand what I'm saying, and even with your abilities and warlocks, you should be able to see more than I do."
"See... More? ”
Anno was silent, and finally decided to tell Rena the biggest secret that this elven species had always been a long time.
After all, this may also be the only way to... A way to get back to the ashes.
"That's right, with the World Tree, although I can't do it, but Rena you should be able to, you can see more... World. ”
"Worlds other than us."
