Chapter 289: Blood Demon, Holy Crow, Giant, Transaction
Joshua...... Joshua ......"
Qi Lin whispered the name of the black-haired blood demon twice, feeling inexplicably familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had heard it.
So he stopped thinking about the name, and he didn't bother with this unique black-haired blood demon.
He flapped his wings and looked at the Blood Demon who spoke first, "You just said your name was ...... Lord of Farris? Suzerain? Is that what the patriarch meant? Forget it, no matter what it means, if you are the leader of your group, then I will tell you clearly, the World Tree will not be changed, no matter what you take, it will not be exchanged! ”
"Are you sure?"
Blood Demon Lord Faris's voice was indifferent, and his scarlet eyes narrowed slightly, "Then what if, I want to exchange the corpses of your Holy Raven Clan?" To change or not to change? Holy Crow Patriarch, I'll give you another ten days to think about it, if you don't change it for a day, I'll kill ten Holy Crows, and if you don't change it for two days, I'll kill twenty, if you still don't change it after ten days, then, you Holy Crow Clan, prepare for war! ”
"Demons! If you want to fight, then fight! ”
Suddenly, there was an earth-shattering roar from the other side of the earth.
Qi Lin turned his head to look.
I saw that at the end of the horizon, countless giants with a height of hundreds, hundreds of meters, and thousands of meters rushed wildly, and the sound of footsteps was like rolling thunder, making the earth tremble.
It's a family of giants!
Seeing this, Qi Lin was immediately overjoyed.
The giants are their crows' best friends!
"Phew-"
"Phew-"
"Phew-"
Immediately afterward, there were countless crows chirping in the sky, and one after another huge crows circled the sky, their golden wings almost completely obscuring the entire sky, making the sky and the earth dark.
Soon, countless giants and crows came behind Qi Lin and joined him in confronting the Blood Demon Lord Faris.
"The World Tree is our home."
The giant patriarch, who was thousands of meters tall and as large as a mountain, crossed his arms around his chest, looked at the group of blood demons floating in front of him, and scolded coldly: "For the invaders who dare to covet our homeland, our giant clan and the holy crow clan will not be merciful, if you want war, then we will give you war!" ”
"Hey, don't get too excited."
The black-haired Blood Demon Joshua waved his hand with a smile and said, "The two patriarchs are calm and calm first, listen to me slowly, first of all, of course I know the importance of the World Tree to the two races."
After all, the World Tree is the embodiment of the World Origin of this world, in a sense, the World Tree is equal to the World Origin of this world, and the food of the two races is very large, only the World Fruit can meet your eating needs, and even if you eat a fruit, you can not eat for several years.
Therefore, it is natural that the two of you care so much about the World Tree.
But what I want to remind you is that you should have already found out, right? The world fruit production of the World Tree is declining year by year.
In the past, you two didn't need to think about saving at all, you just picked the fruit and ate it.
However, in the last hundred years, you have found that this is no longer possible, because there is less and less fruit on the world tree, so you have begun to control it, and the people have to eat only one fruit every 10 years, then one every 12 years, then one every 15 years, and then one every 20 years...... But it didn't work.
You find that no matter how much you save, the fruit always seems to be insufficient.
As a result, you are saving more and less, while the world's fruit production is still decreasing.
Then your people will become more and more hungry, and they will have no choice but to go to the lands outside the World Tree area to hunt, eat, and drink.
However, here comes the problem again.
For the sheer size of your two races, there are so few small animals and small water sources in those lands.
In less than a few years, you have turned several continents into bare wastelands, especially your giants.
So, why? ”
Speaking of this, Joshua smiled and looked at Qi Lin, and then at the Giant Patriarch, "Huh? Two patriarchs, do you know why? ”
“……”
The Giant Patriarch was silent.
Qi Lin was also silent.
Because what this black-haired blood demon said was indeed true.
The decrease in the fruit yield of the World Tree has indeed been the most worrying problem for the Ravens and the Giants in recent years.
"I'll tell you both."
Joshua smiled slightly and said, "As I just said, your World Tree is the embodiment of the World Origin of this world, and in a sense, the World Tree is equal to the World Origin of your world.
Then, the decrease in the fruit production of the World Tree actually shows that the origin of the world of your world is constantly leaking, losing, and decreasing, so the fruit production of the World Tree will decrease year by year.
World origin leakage is a very common phenomenon in the world.
At the same time, this is also an extremely dangerous world phenomenon, countless worlds are destroyed because of this phenomenon, after all, the origin of the world is the energy foundation of the whole world, once the origin of the world is completely lost, then the whole world will also be barren and die.
As for the World Tree, of course, it will also die completely, and it will never produce half a World Fruit again.
There are many reasons for the leakage of the world's origins.
I don't know exactly what the reason for the leakage of the origin of the world in your world is for the time being, but there is no need to know, because the leakage of the origin of the world is irreversible nine times out of ten, and even if you know the reason, it will not help.
So, for the two of you, what you should be thinking about now is not how to keep this World Tree that is destined to die in the near future, but how to continue to get enough food to ensure the reproduction of the race after the World Tree dies?
How many continents are out there?
Hehe, with all due respect, those continents are still too small and too small for you, and they will be eaten up by you in a few years, and when the whole world is eaten up by you, where will you go?
Starve?
Die of thirst?
Besides, once the World Tree dies, it means that the World Origin of the entire world has been leaked, and at that time, the continents outside will also be reduced to barrenness, and there will be no living creatures, let alone anything to eat.
What will you do then? ”
As he spoke, the smile on Joshua's face faded and was replaced by a worried look, as if he were genuinely worried about the future of the Ravens and the Giants.
"Black-haired demon, what do you mean by saying so much?!"
The Giant Patriarch had a gloomy face and shouted loudly.
"It means that my great master can help the two of them."
Joshua bowed his head and bowed, retreated behind the Blood Demon Lord Faris, looked at the other party's back, and said aloud with respect, fanaticism, and reverence on his face: "Let me introduce you again!" This is the supreme Lord of Faris! Lord of the Bloody Rain City-State! The tenth in line to the throne of the patriarch of the Lurac clan! A demon lord at the peak of the eighth order! At the same time, he is also the great master that I respect and admire the most!! ”
“……”
The Blood Demon Lord's face was expressionless.
"You demons have such long names?"
The Giant Patriarch frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I know, I'll call him Lord Faris, hey, Black Hair, so what kind of help can this master of yours give us?!" ”
"One world."
Joshua raised his head and smiled, "As long as you are willing to exchange the World Tree, then my master is willing to give you a vast world, which is far a thousand times larger than your world!" It's a thousand times!
Imagine what it would be like for the seventeen continents of your world to suddenly expand a thousandfold! Or rather, what do you suddenly have 17,000 more continents!
That's an innumerable and inexhaustible amount of resources!
Endless resources are waiting for you there!
As long as you master the use of magic, you can draw magic from the air to maintain your body's daily consumption, and you don't have to worry about eating anymore!
Think about it!
Think about it!
After the Ju Clan migrated to such a vast new world, where do you still need any World Tree? Not at all!
So, isn't the answer obvious?
Trade with us, give us the World Tree, and we will give you a new world, so that we get what we want, and you can successfully solve the problem of the reproduction of the race, such a win-win good thing, why not?! ”
When Joshua said this, there seemed to be an indescribable magic in his voice, which made Qi Lin and the giant patriarch fall into a deep longing.
A world a thousand times bigger......
Magic......
You can draw magic from the air to maintain your body's daily consumption, and you don't have to worry about eating anymore......
So wonderful?
But is there really such a good thing in the world?
"How can I trust you?"
Qi Lin flapped his wings and asked Joshua in a deep voice.
"I can take you to that world." Joshua smiled.
"How do I know that you're not trying to lure us into a trap and then take the opportunity to kill us?" The Giant Patriarch frowned, his face full of suspicion.
"There must be a basic trust in transactions."
Joshua sighed helplessly, and spread his hands, "Two, if you don't even want to believe this, then it will be difficult for us to negotiate the deal, I put forward conditions, you don't believe it, I said I want to take you to test the world, and you refuse to go, so what do you want me to do?" ”
"Speaking of trading ......"
The Giant Patriarch turned his head and looked at the giant tree standing on the horizon behind him, and asked in a deep voice, "If our World Tree is destined to die, then what do you demons want it to do?" ”
"Because we don't need it to produce fruit all the time."
Joshua smiled and replied, "All we need is the trunk of the World Tree during its lifetime, my master needs the trunk of the World Tree to make a staff, we have traveled many worlds, and finally found that the World Tree of your world can meet the needs. ”
"So you're trying to cut down our World Tree?!"
When the Giant Patriarch heard this, he immediately became furious, "The World Tree is our home!" The Tree of Our Ancestors! How dare you want to cut it?! Bastard!!! ”
"Home?"
Joshua's expression was calm, and he said lightly: "I have just said that the World Tree will die sooner or later, and you will starve to death at that time, do you want to guard an old home to perish the race, or abandon the old home and go to a new world to settle down and multiply?" ”
"Say no more!"
The Giant Patriarch waved his hand vigorously, and the palm wind directly set off a raging storm, blowing the hair of Joshua's blood demons fluttering and dancing.
"There's no way we're going to hand over the World Tree to you to cut down!"
The Giant Patriarch glared at Joshua angrily, his voice like rolling thunder and thunder, "This deal, nullified!" Now, disappear from my sight, or I'll make it impossible for you to leave!" ”
"Good."
Blood Demon Lord Faris's voice was indifferent, his scarlet eyes narrowed slightly, he glanced at Joshua beside him, and said expressionlessly: "Joshua, you have wasted half a day and talked nonsense to this group of natives for so long, and in the end, you still have to go to war...... Joshua, as long as my life expectancy is, I don't think my time can be wasted in a senseless way. ”
"Master, please calm your anger."
Joshua lowered his head and whispered: "It is really unwise to start a war with the Holy Crow Clan and the Giant Clan, your election to compete for the patriarch is about to begin, before that, we should not lose a single soldier, for the sake of the patriarchal election, what we have to do is to increase the number of troops as much as possible, not lose troops because of the war, master." ”
"But I need a powerful staff to defeat my siblings!" The Blood Demon Lord said in a deep voice.
"Master, there is still time before the election begins."
Joshua raised his head, looked at the blood demon lord's scarlet eyes, and smiled, "Please leave it to me, wait a little longer, I promise, before the patriarchal election begins, you will definitely get the staff you want." ”
"What if you can't?"
The Blood Demon Lord's voice was cold.
"I will die to apologize."
The smile on Joshua's face grew gentle.
"Then this matter will be fully entrusted to you."
The Blood Demon Lord said and turned to leave.
The remaining dozen or so white-haired Blood Demons followed.
As for the black-haired blood demon Joshua, he still stayed where he was.
"Hey! Black-haired demons! They're all rolling, why aren't you rolling yet?! ”
The Giant Patriarch shouted loudly.
"Of course I can get out."
Joshua looked at the thousand-meter-tall giant and smiled, "But, after I get out, where will the two of you go?" Hehe, in fact, the pros and cons of this matter, the two patriarchs should have counted in their hearts.
However, I can also understand the deep affection of the two of them for the World Tree, after all, this is home, and it is normal for it to be difficult to part with it for a while.
So I can wait.
When the World Tree has fewer and fewer fruits, and when the two of you are getting hungry, I will reappear.
At that time, looking at the two clansmen starving to death one by one, you should be able to recognize the reality and figure out who should be chosen between the emotions of the homeland and survival and reproduction.
And the trading conditions I have given will not change in the slightest.
The conditions I used to trade the World Tree are the same as I just said, to give you a world, a new world with endless resources, a thousand times larger than your old world that is about to die!
So be it.
Goodbye, two patriarchs. ”
Joshua said, smiled and turned away, and walked in the air, and after a few steps, there was a ripple in the space around him, and then the whole person disappeared.
“……”
The Giant Patriarch looked at the place where he disappeared, and after a moment of silence, he turned his head to look at Qi Lin beside him, and said in a muffled voice, "Holy Crow Patriarch, what do you think?" ”
“……”
Qi Lin was silent.
The many holy crows and giants around them also fell into the oppressive silence of the atmosphere.
"The World Tree is our home."
After a long time, Qi Lin opened his mouth and let out a hoarse voice: "However, where there are clansmen, it is home, if even the clansmen are gone, then what's the point of sticking to the homeland?" Well...... Alas...... Alright, let's do it for now, and then wait and see, maybe those red-eyed demons are just bluffing us, and perhaps, the World Tree's fruit production will soon be better. ”
"Let's go!"
"It's all gone!"
Qi Lin flapped his wings and set off a raging storm that flew straight into the sky, towards the giant tree on the horizon.
That's the World Tree.
It is the common home of their Raven Clan and the Giant Clan.
……
……
Fantasy is always beautiful.
But the reality is always scary.
Instead of improving, the fruit yield of the World Tree is getting worse.
