Abandoned area.

Charles, whose breath was gloomy, stood up, cough, cough, he touched his mask, and the bone damage was even worse.

The black mist that made up his body was almost dissipating, in a sense, he needed to cultivate for a period of time, and he should have been at the peak of the Rank Advancement, and he once again retreated to the ...... of the Fourth Order.

A little frustrated, only then did he have the heart to observe the environment, it seemed that this was really a world shrouded in despair, mixed with the breath of the abyss.......

The fear in the heart is like ink soaked in water, gradually magnifying, the black fog boiling, blocking the spread of fear, the original remnant soul is afraid of the fear walker, it is better to say...... Fear the breath of the abyss.

The weather here is extremely strange, and as far as the eye can see, there are cold areas and dark places, and all kinds of climates are mixed.

Overall, it's a gloomy canopy, and charred dirt.

He saw a lot of monsters, and he actually felt a sense of intimacy...... , the black mist on his face rippled, and Charles frowned, it was the power of the same origin.

Does the Transcendent Key come from the spirit realm or from the gods?

Although it is understood from the Stars that the key comes from the gods, it is still worth pondering that the spirituality can be replenished from the spirit world.

Look at the forces of the same origin.

"Spiritual creatures?"

Sometimes, under the gloomy canopy of heaven were dazzling lightning, and in the dark shelter there were the silhouettes of countless monsters, among which there were bursts of murmuring and howling......

"It's uncomfortable, it seems that something is causing distortion in the body......"

The black mist that made up the body even came with a ** feeling, and then, with the black mist of Charles's will boiling wildly, he found the source, which was similar to light.

"No wonder there's no living thing. ”

The black scythe sliced through the soil, and he found a piece of flesh that had just begun to rot, where there was a festering surface, and the white flesh had not yet rotted, because there was no life in a radius of several meters.

It is ulcerated with dimples...... , and then uses a scythe to pluck a piece out of the earth...... Battery.

It cracked a small piece, and looking at the words on it, Charles didn't recognize...... When he looked at the constant stream of radiation, he said, "Maybe it's nuclear energy? After all, only nuclear energy can produce such a big pollution." ”

He looked into the distance, and beyond the thick fog, he saw the gathering place, dirty, and ...... Dense.

This weird look of himself...... Let's give it a try and follow the locals.

Under the gloomy sky, a figure walked silently.

As he walked, he stopped because a figure appeared in front of him.

The figure was even more sleek than him, dressed in an intricate black robe, and its exposed parts were completely ...... of tree tissue.

He had a pitch-black helmet, and his eyes were blue, a light in the darkness, exuding a cold that penetrated deep into the marrow, Charles squinted his eyes, the combination of tree tissue and cold, it was ...... Uncommon.

The figure raised its palm, hesitated for a moment, and said:

"Those who have come from afar, welcome ....... ”

......

The spire castle of the settlement.

The two of them looked at the dancing blue flames and were silent.

After a long time, Charles spoke:

"In other words, we form a fragile balance with Garthus?"

The blue flames danced slightly, illuminating their faces even brighter.

Charles' tattered mask regained slightly in the light.

Slightly puzzled, there was another member of the castle, a human woman, who was not very beautiful, but she was extremely ...... Peaceful.

She looked at the Treant with tenderness, and the Treant looked at her as well, and the word "Mutual Foam" popped up in her mind, rubbing the corners of her forehead, and Charles thought she was dazzled for a moment.

"Treants are weird, why...... , forget it, this is someone's family matter, it's better not to ask. ”

The woman walked down the stairs, not knowing what ...... to prepare.

......

The treeman's fingers moved slightly, and several crystals fell from the flames, and the surging flames swelled over and over again, as if driving something......

With bursts of blue light, Charles's face was covered in black mist, and the pollution on his body seemed to ...... Gone.

He looked at Charles' slightly delighted face, and his voice was low:

"You have the weapon contamination of the Garthus civilization on you, that contamination...... Not pleasing. ”

"In a sense...... And indeed it is. ”

"The conflict was caused by weapons, 4,000 years ago and more recently. ”

"They can't make the equipment they used to have, they can only have gadgets like the one they were holding before. ”

"The Gatus civilization called it...... Nucleus. ”

"Nuclear contamination is common to most living things, and although the contamination is insignificant to us, it is difficult to get rid of it, and it will accumulate little by little. ”

He pulled a few branches from the side and set them on fire......

The dancing flames burned more and more, and Charles narrowed his eyes as he stared at the tree man, "In other words, this is the settlement of Gatus, and they ...... Attached to you?"

"It's not attachment. The Treant looked sideways at Charr, his blue eyes flickering faintly, "It's weird, I just hate the pollution, and so does the Gatus civilization, it's just a win-win ......"

When the tree man talked about this topic, his mood was a little low.

"Of course, the racial stance still exists, either you die or I die. ”

"But I'm one of the few people who is willing to share the settlement...... , the rest of the weirdness is not. ”

The Treantman's face seemed to have a smile on it, "What if...... If you want to know why, you have to go back to 100 years ....... ”

"It was a cold winter night......"

"I was born from the corpses of my first ancestors, and compared to the rest of the people, I have not experienced any of those cannibalistic histories. ”

"Although I often have disputes between spirit creatures and Gast, I still have an unbearable relationship in my bones, and time may be able to fade ...... Hatred. ”

"I hope so......"

The treeman's eyes look through the castle...... Looking at the horizon, unexpectedly, there, the sky was clear, "It was at that time that I learned to be kind......." ”

The flame flickered and seemed warmer.

"Here, at the birthplace, I also met the one I liked. ”

"That's what makes a lot of things worse......"

"I don't want to go to the first generation...... , they are against me, perhaps, they are...... That's right, only the fittest survive among the races. ”

The flames crackled and burned, and Charles's face stiffened, and he was silent for a moment, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a long time, he stood up and looked out the window......

"You also formed these barriers?"

The Treant tossed the last of the crystals in, ignoring the growing flames and standing up, "Yes. ”

"Then why...... They don't have basic livelihoods?"

The Treant waved the branch in his hand, absent-minded, hearing Charles' question...... Stunned.

Then he smiled, "You're from the spirit realm? no, you're from another world. ”

Ignoring the silent Charles, he walked to the window and looked at the settlement.

"I've heard my ancestors say that whether it's in the spirit realm or in Gast, this is the norm, the more powerless you are, the more painful it is, the more you want to protect that shadow, the more you can progress ....... ”

"Comfort brings only destruction......

"Only competition, or a great desire to protect the population, can last forever, and without desire, it will only lead to ...... Decline. ”

The Treants seemed to have something in mind...... , some unwillingly.

"You may live in a comfortable world, you haven't experienced it, naturally...... I don't understand. ”

No one understood, just like the one who longed to protect the important person, and he chose to embrace ...... Dark. ”

"He chose to be weird, and then turned on us, and casually teamed up to kill ...... , but it shakes the heart. ”

"Angry and unwilling...... No one could understand that on the day I fought him, I looked into his eyes, and it was only at that moment that I understood that his eyes were full of ...... Liability. ”
