Chapter 18: Twins (+9)

"Shhhh

Hissing softly, although well-informed, in fact, the snake is also the first time to see a golden apple tree.

It was born in the First Period. In the era when [life] was not divided into two, in the artifact that symbolized the 'origin of all things', the seed of the first plant in the world was naturally born.

It is the [Seed of All Things], and if it continues to be conceived in its birthplace, then perhaps the moment the [Life Bottle] advances to the [Creation Artifact], it will be able to transform into a god and become an innate deity that truly controls [Life] and [Plants], and the artifact is its essence, just as the earth is the essence of Gaia.

It will be half great, just after countless beings have walked on the earth.

However, as early as the first time she realized this, Gaia decisively put an end to the process. The [Life Vase] is her artifact, and the artifact does not need to have thoughts. Therefore, she planted the seed of all things, watered it with the source of life, and gave birth to the golden apple tree, and shared the power of the plant with it.

"Have you made a decision?"

The golden leaves swayed, and the sound of silver bells came from the wind, like the most simple music of nature.

The snake looked up at the 'Ancestor of Ten Thousand Trees' of Kaos and couldn't help but sigh at the resemblance of the gods.

Even a god like Gaia would not tolerate his treasures being affected by other thoughts. So the gods who should have been born were strangled in the cradle.

Of course, from another point of view, this is also the 'destiny' of this world in effect. After all, even the greatness that already exists is constantly being weakened, and how can He sit idly by and watch a new greatness be born.

I've brought you in."

The answer was not asked, and on the side, Moanda said softly.

The snake knows the other party's tangled mood at the moment. After all, until now, the other party is still worried that he just wants to use her permission to enter the Golden Apple Orchard, and not really wants to help her become a god.

So she didn't tell the truth. Entering the orchard is different from touching the fruit trees, after all, the orchard exists for the golden apples, not the other way around.

So on the golden apple tree, there is an extra layer of protection. Only by touching the great being can we see the power flowing on the fruit tree.

Those who are allowed to touch it by Mother Earth will not only be cut off by this power, but will also awaken the old gods who have fallen into a deep sleep. No one can take the golden apple tree from the mother earth's body, but luckily, the snake didn't come to steal it.

"Yes, I came in. The golden apple tree is indeed a rare treasure in the world. ”

The snake's head swayed, and the branches in its mouth swayed, and the golden leaves made a rustling sound.

"So we can start the next step as well."

"Next, you're going to have to tell me what I'm going to get."

Gathering courage, the elf looked directly at the serpent on the ground.

She can do things for the other person, provided that the reward is equal to the giving.

By following Mother Earth for so long, she has both witnessed the power of this ancient god and learned many lessons from it.

"Of course." The snake's head tapped lightly, and although it kept holding a branch, it never seemed to affect its speech: "You know, in fact, as a nymph, you are very similar to the golden apple tree. And even in some places, it's not as good as you. ”

"Like, are we all plants?"

Laughing at herself, Moanda felt that if she had half the fruit of the golden apple tree, the gods would treat her as a guest.

"Isn't that enough, as a plant, you have awakened wisdom, but it doesn't."

"So what's the use of that? There are many intelligent beings in the world, and every human being once had wisdom, but they have also turned to dust. ”

The Nymph's words blurted out, and then she immediately regretted it. She felt that her words should be more tactful, but it was clear that the snake didn't care.

She saw the snake put the branch in its mouth on the ground, tapped the tip of its tail, and then 'grinned' at her.

"That's what I'm here for."

"You all have flaws, you are not perfect. You lack strength, it lacks wisdom, and you are all incomplete. ”

"So what it doesn't have, it's up to you to supply it; What you don't have, let it make you. ”

"One is the same, and the twins are two."

······

The branches of the golden apple tree originated from its mother, and now, in Moanda's hands, it has been retaken back to its original position.

The serpent's body disintegrated, and right in front of the Nymph, it redissolved into a black and white mist that slowly wrapped around the branches.

Gradually, when the original fracture healed under the strong vitality force, it began to give birth to new fruits, only this time, this fruit was a little special.

It should be called the 'fruit of reincarnation' more than the 'golden apple'. Anyone who takes it will be like going through a small reincarnation and then being reborn as part of the will of the golden apple tree.

This is actually a temporary idea. In the beginning, when it was uncertain whether it would be possible to open up a full cycle of reincarnation, this branch was used to 'ignite' the fruit tree. Compared to a newly-born dryad who is naturally close to Mother Earth, it is obvious that a nymph fairy who betrayed Gaia is more suitable.

So Moanda looked at the flowers growing on the branches and made a judgment based on experience.

"In a hundred years, three hundred years at most, it will be able to mature."

"The Lord God should not wake up before that"

A little nervous, she was originally an elf transformed by an oak with heather, and she had been watered by the life source liquid that had not yet been divided, so she had transformed into a shape. But other than that, she is nothing special compared to her kind.

But in the future, as long as she eats this divine fruit, she will become the Nymph of the 'Golden Apple Tree', coexisting with its original hazy consciousness, becoming the origin of all plants in the world, and will also symbolize half of life.

As the only god in the world to be transformed into plants, Moanda will naturally become the monarch of all his kind in the world. Unlike the goddess of the White Oak tree, formerly known as the Father's blood, the golden apple is the plant itself.

Mountains, rivers, lakes and seas, flowers and trees, since the beginning of the Silver Age, the spirit world has loosened the restrictions on the birth of the soul of all things, and the Nymph elves of Kaos can be born from all things like in mythology. But among all the elves, plants account for the vast majority, and mountains and rivers only account for a small part, because the former is easier to enrich spirituality and awaken consciousness.

Once the golden apple tree becomes the shapeshift, these Nymphs, who are born naturally from the plants, will all become her subjects.

"Moanda, what are you doing here, shouldn't you be at the Oracle today?"

"Ahh

With an exclamation, waking up from his thoughts, Moanda was startled by the sudden sound. But the next moment, she immediately reacted.

Clutching her chest, still looking frightened, Moanda turned and glared at her friend who was walking behind her.

"Vader, why don't you make a sound at all!"

"It's you who want to focus too much on things, what does it have to do with me."

Vader pouted, as a nymph born from flowers, she had grown up in the shade of Moanda's body before she knew it, so the two of them were very good friends.

"Is the golden apple branching again, the last fruit has just borne fruit, but I didn't expect the new fruit to start growing."

With a casual sigh, Vader felt that it might have something to do with Mother Earth's sleep. Perhaps because of the owner's slumber, the golden apple also became vibrant.

"Yes, if this is not the treasure of the Lord God, I would like to take one down and taste it."

His expression remained unchanged, and Moanda echoed his friend's words. She knew that no one would believe that a Nymph would dare to disobey the orders of the Lord God and take a treasure that did not belong to her.

In fact, until now, she was still a little hesitant.

Although only a little. She felt that if this divine fruit was ripe, then she would definitely put it in her mouth.

"It's true that I've tasted a lot of fruit, but I don't know what golden apples taste like."

There was some longing, but Vader didn't think much of it.

"You haven't said it yet, why did you come here today, didn't you go to see the oracle?"

Although the so-called 'care' is only a face-saving project, no one thinks that places like the Golden Apple Orchard and the Oracle of Delphi will be destroyed, and they can't solve the problem if they really have them, but they have to go anyway.

The nymphs are not harmonious, and there are not many people who don't like the presence of Moanda.

"It's the one that the main god confessed before he fell asleep, and the new god king of Mount Olympus came to the oracle house, and I was naturally driven out."

Spreading his hands, Moanda gradually relaxed.

Things have been done, and it's too late to regret it. The rest can only wait.

"You know, we don't have much status with the true God. I think the god-king is probably going to put his symbol in the temple, and we can go and see it together after a while. ”

"God-king?" Somewhat surprised, Vader couldn't help asking, "Then what does he look like?" ”

"Let's go out first, I'm here to tell you this."

"I'm telling you, the new god king looks"

Easily attracting the attention of their friends, the two walked out of Mother Earth's orchard side by side. Behind them, the golden apple trees swayed.

In the canopy, new divine fruits are being born. But this time, maybe it's no longer the gods who eat it.
