Chapter 60: The Evil Dryad
After changing several stone stairs and walking for a long time, Aaron finally came to the ground, and then looked up, and when he looked down, those stone stairs were very strange, without any support points, just floating out of thin air, there were many of them, and walking on them was like a labyrinth.
After a few glances at the stone stairs, Aaron withdrew his gaze from them, and instead looked at the castle not far away, and then walked straight towards it.
All the way through the ruins, Aaron looked at these ruins, unable to make out how much time had passed, but one thing is for sure, the time must be very long, due to the strange environment here, it may lead to wrong analysis, and the promise given by the chip is also uncertain.
The distance to the castle was getting closer and closer, and it was only when he walked in front of the dilapidated building that Aaron felt its enormity. Even if it looks so dilapidated now, you can imagine how glorious it was when it was complete.
Circling around the outside of the castle, Aaron noticed that a large section of the wall had completely collapsed, revealing a large hole from which it could be accessed.
Stepping on the gravel of the ground, through the large hole in Guò, and into the castle, Aaron came to a long corridor with a red carpet on the floor, but by this time the carpet had lost its original shine, and had become dull and dusty, and tears and tears were everywhere.
Aaron walked all the way down the corridor to a corner, and after turning the corner, what appeared in front of him was still a long corridor, but on the left and right sides of this corridor, there were some armored men, some holding swords in both hands on their chests, some holding axes, and no weapons, all kinds of shapes and shapes.
Aaron walked over, tapped the dusty armor a few times, and suddenly made a clattering sound, and then used the chip to analyze the armor, but found nothing abnormal, just some ordinary metal.
After looking at the armoured men for a while, Aaron continued to walk forward, and when he was halfway there, "There is a door, go in and see first." ”
In the middle of the hallway, a large metal door appeared on the right side, so Aaron stepped forward, pushed the horizontal log of the main door up, and then pushed it hard with both hands.
No one has opened this door for a long time, and when the door is pushed open, there is a squeaky sound, and it is obvious that the shaft of this door has been corroded by Yan zhòng, and it is crumbling, maybe if you push harder, the whole door will fall.
When he opened the door, he saw a large hall, which was also covered with a thick layer of dust, and Aaron was not interested in it, and when he walked in, he found that there was a door inside, which led to other places, so he walked there.
Through another door in the hall, Aaron found himself in the central hall of the castle, above which was a dome, but there were several large holes in the dome.
"Why is there a dead tree here?"
In the middle of the central hall, there was a strangely shaped tree, but at this time it seemed to be dead, the branches were bare, there was not a single leaf, and the bark looked like it had dried up, and there was no water at all.
"This tree must be dead! There's no sunlight or a drop of water here, it's normal to die. Aaron muttered to himself, thinking that the tree must have been dead for a long time.
"I'm still alive!"
As Aaron muttered, a dull and strange voice suddenly rang out, echoing throughout the central hall and ringing in his ears.
"Who!" Aaron was startled by the sudden voice, and quickly turned his body to look around, but looked around the entire central hall, but saw no one.
"It's been a long time since I've seen a living life!" the voice came again as Aaron looked around the hall. "I want to think about it...... It's been more than 50,000 years! Someone is finally here!"
The voice didn't answer Aaron's question, but spoke to itself.
"Five...... More than 50,000 years!" Aaron couldn't help but feel his heart pound when he heard these words, if these were true, that is to say, the owner of the voice had lived for at least tens of thousands of years!
Aaron couldn't imagine what kind of existence this was, and it seemed that in his current cognition, he had never heard of a creature that could reach such a long lifespan.
"Who are you, where are you?" Aaron asked, skeptically.
"Wasn't I right in front of you! Didn't you just say I was dead!" the voice came again.
After hearing this, Aaron gasped and focused his gaze on the dead tree: "It turned out to be the sound made by this tree!"
When he looked at the tree again, Aaron noticed that there was an anthropomorphic face on the trunk, and it was from this tree that he had just spoken.
"Little one, be careful when you speak, it's not this tree or that tree, you should call me an evil tree spirit. The face on the trunk of the tree, with its mouth open and closed, was very dissatisfied with what Aaron had just called.
"I'm so sorry! Evil Treant!" Aaron quickly bowed his head and bowed to show his apology. "Evil Dryad, I guess this is just your title, do you have any other name?"
Aaron personally felt that the evil dryad was just a title, but this title didn't sound like a good person, and it should be a title for terrible people.
Of course, a title does not mean a qiē, and some humans like to use these strange class titles.
"Well, that's right, it's a title given to me by a human before, and I like it very much, as for my name...... I want to think about it, it's been too long to be useful......" The evil dryad didn't even remember his name for a moment, so he fell silent, thinking about his former name.
"Uh......" Aaron was a little speechless, and he could forget his name, it must have been useless for a long time, but remembering that he had said before that he had not seen a living life for tens of thousands of years, it seemed reasonable to say it again.
During the silence of the evil dryad, Aaron did not dare to disturb, just stood silently and waited, while using the chip to scan it, and the result was as expected, nothing could be scanned.
"I remember!" After a long silence, the Evil Dryad finally spoke again: "My original name was Federer, yes, Federer, but you still call me the Evil Dryad, I prefer that title." ”
Although he remembered his original name, he didn't seem to like it, preferring the name Evil Dryad, and Aaron was speechless about it.
"Lord Evil Dryad, what is this place, and why have you stayed here for tens of thousands of years?" is the question that Aaron is most interested in and wants to know the most right now.
"I didn't stay here of my own free will, I was actually sealed in this place. And this is just a super-small plane that has died, tens of thousands of years ago, those despicable mages teamed up to trick me here, and added a seal, and I was trapped in this place. The evil dryad spoke of the seal, and there was a clear hint of anger in his tone.
"However, soon I will be able to get out! This seal has trapped me here for 56,000 years, and in another 4,000 years, it will be extremely weak, and it will not be able to trap me at that time, and when I get out, I must go for revenge!"
The evil dryad seems to be very concerned about revenge, but in Aaron's opinion, so much time has passed, and his enemies should have all died, right, who to seek revenge?
Aaron just thought about it in his heart, this kind of thing, it is better not to intervene in it, and it is sealed by someone, it seems that the evil tree spirit has done something bad to be treated like this.
"Lord Evil Tree Elf, what level are those mages you are talking about, and how can they trap you here for so long?" Aaron then began to talk, he was very concerned about what the mages who were able to trap the evil tree spirit in here had reached.
"They're just sixth-level mages, I'm a seventh-level ultimate lifeform, if it weren't for them joining forces and using despicable means, I wouldn't have been able to be sealed. Speaking of this, the evil dryad's tone was once again filled with anger.
"It's just level six!" However, Aaron was completely shocked after hearing this, a level six mage! In his eyes, this was already an unattainable goal, but in the eyes of the evil tree spirit, it seemed to be just a small role.
Since stepping into the mage world, Aaron has clearly understood that every step forward is not easy, and it is extremely difficult to reach the level of a sixth-level mage.
However, several sixth-level mages used deception and dishonorable means to successfully seal the evil tree spirit, so what kind of existence did the seventh-level ultimate lifeform he claimed to be!
"Evil Dryad, what do you mean by the seventh-level ultimate lifeform you just mentioned? I've never heard of that. "It's the first time Aaron has heard that there are ranks other than mages, and he doesn't know anything about them, so he cares a lot.
"Every life in the plane has a division of strength and weakness, and the level of life forms is just a standard for dividing their strength and weakness, just like you mages have a hierarchy, all life forms have a hierarchy, it seems that your understanding of life is very limited!" The evil tree spirit was halfway through his explanation, and suddenly remembered something: "By the way, you haven't even reached the level of a mage and a level 1 life form, how did you get here?"
When Aaron heard this, he hesitated for 2 seconds, and then told all the truth, in the face of such a powerful being, it is better to tell the truth, in case the other party has any means, he can know that he is lying, then it may really be over! Besides, there is nothing to hide about these things.
"Oh, so they left a way back here, which means you can get out at any time. After hearing this, the evil dryad finally understood, and began to take an interest in Aaron.
