Just 30 years after Joshua's group of blood demons left, the fruit yield of the World Tree could be said to have dropped below the red line.

The World Fruit produced every year could not meet the most basic food needs of the Holy Crow Clan and the Giant Clan.

As a result, the Holy Crow Clan and the Giant Clan began to starve to death......

As for the continents outside the World Tree Region?

It has long been eaten up by their two clans.

The Ravens and Giants are too large, and correspondingly, they need more energy.

And they don't have the ability to "draw magic from the air to maintain the body's consumption", and if they want to recover their body's energy, they must eat, but in today's world where the production of the tree is getting lower and lower, there is nothing left for them in this world to eat.

Famine, appeared!

More and more people from the Ravens and the Giants are dying of starvation.

As the patriarch of the Holy Crow Clan, Qi Lin made a request to the Council of Elders of the Holy Crow Clan to trade the World Tree out after repeatedly weighing the pros and cons.

But the Presbyterian Church rejected the request.

Those old antiques would rather starve to death under the World Tree than hand over this old home to the group of blood demons to cut down and make some kind of staff.

On the side of the Giant Clan, a similar dilemma arose, the Giant Patriarch wanted to agree to this deal, but the Elders of the Giant Clan were also a group of old antiques, and they would also rather die of hunger than hand over the World Tree.

The most important thing is that among the two tribes, there are still many people who are willing to support the Presbyterian Church.

The situation is at a stalemate.

Within the Raven Clan and the Giant Clan, they are divided into two factions, one is the new faction that agrees to hand over the World Tree, and the other is the old faction that would rather die under the tree.

Just as the two factions were at a stalemate, Joshua reappeared.

The black-haired blood demon came to the two clans and smiled again about the promise he had made back then—the new world! A new world with endless resources, a thousand times larger than their old world that was about to die!

However, Joshua also said that he did not want to be hindered in cutting down the World Tree, so he would not allow any opposition to exist, and if there was opposition, the deal would have to be put on hold for the time being.

Thereupon......

The civil war began.

Qi Lin, as the patriarch of the Holy Crow, as the leader of the new faction, led a part of the Holy Raven to launch a crusade against the members of the old faction of the Elders.

On the side of the Giant Clan, it was almost the same situation, the Giant Patriarch led the members of the new faction to slaughter all the giants of the old faction.

In the end, both clans and the new faction were victorious.

The old school members are all dead.

Regarding the transaction of the World Tree, there was finally no opposition between the two clans.

That's when Joshua reappeared.

But he asks another question:

"Whose World Tree is it?"

Is the World Tree from the Ravens or the Giants?

Joshua claims that he will only trade with the true owner of the World Tree, and that if the owner of the World Tree is unclear, then he will not start trading, and that he will only give the opportunity to travel to the New World to either the Raven or the Giants.

The interests of the present, no friends.

In the face of Joshua's words, the Ravens and the Giants argued for a long time.

Who is the owner of the World Tree?

It has no owner.

The World Tree has never had a master, whether it is the Holy Crow or the Giant Clan, or other races in this world, they all live under the shade of the World Tree, including the Holy Crow and the Giant, they are all the children of the World Tree, so how can they be called "masters"?

But it doesn't matter.

Because the World Tree doesn't speak.

Therefore, whoever has the big fist will be able to take possession of the World Tree and become its master.

After a long quarrel, the Ravens and the Giants started a war.

Qi Lin led the only remaining members of the Holy Raven Clan and the only remaining new members of the Giant Clan to wage an earth-shattering race war for the ownership of the World Tree and the power to trade with Joshua.

In the end, the Ravens were victorious.

The Giant Clan was killed by the Holy Crow Clan with less than a hundred people, and they were no longer able to fight.

But they were deceived.

When Qi Lin and the crows with heavy losses were ready to make a deal with Joshua with great joy, they did not wait for any opportunity to travel to the New World.

In the end, the Ravens were waiting for only an army of blood demons from hell.

However, after a round of civil war between the old and the new, plus another round of racial war with the Giants, the Raven Clan had already suffered heavy losses at this time, and they had almost no resistance in the face of the powerful Blood Demon Legion, and were slaughtered in a short period of time.

The Holy Crows, extinct!

As for the Giants, they were also wiped out by the Blood Demon Legion.

As the last patriarch of the Holy Crow Clan, Qi Lin fought to the death against these blood demon invaders to the end, and finally died of serious injuries, falling in the middle of a remote island in the sea, licking his wings weakly, and his vision became more and more blurred......

And in the last moments of his life, in his blurred vision, he vaguely saw the figures of the Blood Demon Lord and Joshua, as well as the conversation of the two demons.

"Joshua......"

The Blood Demon Lord stood with his hands in his hands and said indifferently: "After doing it for so long, don't you want to send troops to attack in the end?" ”

"It's really going to fight."

Joshua bowed his head and bowed down, sneering respectfully, "However, my esteemed master, going to war with the Ravens and Giants in their heyday will cause us great losses in our troops.

But now it's different, in the face of the Holy Crow Clan and the Giant Clan who are struggling to survive after both defeats, we can solve it with almost no troops.

My original goal was to start a war, but to reduce the loss of soldiers as much as possible, and now, the goal has been achieved, we have not lost many soldiers, we have obtained the World Tree, and there is still a period of time before your patriarch is elected, and this time is enough to make your staff ready. ”

"Okay, it makes sense......"

The Blood Demon Lord nodded slightly, and then said, "By the way, you asked me for materials before, saying that you wanted to build a blood pool to transform the creatures of this world?" I don't understand, this group of crows and giants almost gnawed the entire world when the World Tree's production was reduced, and they ate all the creatures, so what creatures could be transformed? ”

"Hehe, the master doesn't know."

Joshua smiled slightly and explained: "Actually, this world is a twin plane, and the land we are stepping on now can be regarded as the (1) plane, but in the mezzanine of the space, there is another (2) plane.

(2) There are many creatures in the plane, and the blood pool I built is to transform those creatures.

When the time comes, your master, your legion, will have another batch of half-blood demon soldiers.

It is also worth mentioning that the reason why the production of these crows and giants of the World Tree has decreased in the past hundred years is actually because the World Origin is constantly flowing to that (2) plane.

Judging by my experience, once this phenomenon is discovered, it is not far from plane fusion.

According to my speculation, after a while, plane (2) will merge with plane (1) and completely merge into one world, and then the world origin will also flow back to plane (1), so that the world tree will be revitalized and the high yield of world fruits will be restored.

That's why I said before that I can't wait for all the crows and giants to starve to death.

Because inferring from this time, if we wait any longer, it won't be long before the two planes will merge, the World Origin will return, and the World Tree will return to high yields. ”

"Okay."

The Blood Demon Lord waved his hand and turned to leave, "I'll go back first, you continue to stay in this world and supervise the cutting down of the World Tree...... Oh yes. ”

As he spoke, the Blood Demon Lord stopped again, looked back at Joshua, and said with a blank face, "Joshua, I have recently received some rumors that you covet my World Tree? ”

"Hehe, it's this rumor again."

Joshua bowed his head respectfully and said with a smile: "My loyalty to my master, the blood moon can be seen, the ancestors can be testified, and I have no selfish desires, as for these nonsense rumors, they are nothing more than jealousy of my status by the master's side, and they are released to deliberately smear me." ”

"Well, I think so too."

The Blood Demon Lord bowed his head slightly, casually tore open a spatial crack and stepped into it, leaving this world.

Joshua looked up slowly, still with that harmless smile on his face.

"Liars ......"

Huge as a mountain, but covered in blood, lying in the middle of the island, trying to raise his wings and slap at this black-haired blood demon, he couldn't lift half of his strength at all.

"Yo, isn't this the respected Holy Raven Patriarch?"

Joshua looked up at him, smiled and raised his right hand to greet him.

"Teng!"

Suddenly, above Joshua's right hand, a blood-red flame ablaze—madness!

"Huh?!"

After Qi Lin saw this blood and fire, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he completely understood everything, "You, you, liar, liar......"

His voice grew weaker.

He's going to die.

And before he died, the last voice Qi Lin heard was the whisper of the black-haired demon:

"Ketulu, I'll tell you a little secret."

"The devil's words must not be believed."

……

……

"Ketulu?"

Qi Lin's consciousness gradually cleared up.

Who is he?

The last patriarch of the Raven Clan, Keturu?

No, it's not!

He is a human from the earth, all here!

Those experiences just now are not his memories, but Ketulu's!

"Huh?!"

Qi Lin, who was completely awake, suddenly opened his golden eyes, and then was slightly stunned.

Because at this time, he was on the boundless grassland, and there was a giant tree in the sky, and its huge system of branches and leaves seemed to completely cover the sky of the whole world, and the light that illuminated the world was provided by the golden fruits on the tree.

"World Tree?"

Qi Lin subconsciously pronounced out the name.

"Alas......"

A faint sigh came from behind, full of indescribable pathos: "It's a pity that this place is all illusory, and the real World Tree no longer exists......"

Qi Lin hurriedly looked back.

I saw a giant golden bird as tall as a kilometer and as huge as a mountain standing not far from him, its golden eyes full of sadness.

It's a holy crow!

"You ......"

Qi Lin looked at the holy crow in front of him and hesitated: "You, are you Kaitulu?" ”

"You've seen almost my whole life, can't you be sure?"

The Holy Crow lowered his head slightly, and lowered his eyes to Qi Lin, "Yes, that's right, I am Kaitulu, a sinner who caused the destruction of the Holy Raven and the Giant Clan because of stupidity. ”

"Maybe it's not your fault."

Qi Lin frowned and thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "I seriously suspect that at that time, the reason why you led the Holy Crow Clan and the Giant Clan to start a race war should be that Joshua subtly influenced your thinking through some means, such as ...... Mad Fire!

It was a combination of the power of the blood demon and the power of the heart demon, and in Joshua's hands, the mad fire was likely to have the effect of mind control!

Otherwise, there is no reason why you and the giant patriarch can't see such a simple divisive plan, and Joshua finally deliberately showed you the madness before you died, probably because he was proud of his own means! ”

"Maybe."

The Holy Crow sighed and said, "But it doesn't matter, because it doesn't matter if it's stupid, because it's influenced by bewitchment, it doesn't affect the final result, and the result is ...... I am the one who is the one who brought about the destruction of the Ravens and the Giants. ”

“……”

Qi Lin was silent.

He didn't know how to comfort the last patriarch of the Raven clan for a moment.

But the key now doesn't seem to be comforting the other party.

It's about figuring out a problem......

"You're still alive?"

Qi Lin looked at the Holy Crow Patriarch in surprise.

"Between life and death."

The Holy Crow lowered his eyes and looked at Qi Lin, and his voice was low: "About me, it's a bit complicated, and it's not important, it's not too late to talk about it later, and now, I want to talk to you about another matter...... Human, do you know that you have been targeted by Joshua? ”

"Yes."

Qi Lin nodded with an ugly face.

"Nope! You don't know enough! ”

The Holy Crow's voice suddenly became excited and sharp, and while flapping his huge golden wings, he roared: "That liar has waited for so many years, and finally waited for you, an existence like him, with the same power of blood demons and the power of heart demons!"

You're a lot like him!

Too much like that! Too much like!! Your breath is exactly the same!!

I'm telling you, human, Joshua must be preparing to make a swap with you right now!

Joshua definitely wants to change you into the Blood Pool Seal, and then swap yourself out, so that he can get out of trouble and get free, and at the same time, he will not trigger the alarm of the Blood Pool Seal, which can make the Blood Demon Lord who is far away in Hell mistakenly think that the seal is still in effect, and then run away by himself!

And you, as a victim of this exchange, will be trapped in the seal of the pool of blood, like Joshua before, and you will never be able to live beyond the !! ”

"Huh?!"

Qi Lin's complexion changed drastically.

"I can help you! No, it's not like I can help you! Can you help me!! ”

The Holy Crow lowered its head suddenly, stretched its huge palace-like head out in front of Qi Lin, and looked at him excitedly with its golden pupils, "Human! Work with me! I can help you escape the fate of being sealed in the blood pool by Joshua! And you! You can help me get my revenge too! Let that damn liar be completely gone! ”

"Soul Flying!"

"Soul Flying!!"

"I want that liar to be completely gone!!"
