Chapter 262 Persuasion
Chapter 262 Persuasion
When the outside calmed down, the high priest still refused the patriarch's request to see him.
The patriarch's brows and eyes are full of worry.
The power of the high priest is so great that even if he restrained himself, the Holy Land would almost change its appearance.
If it weren't for the fact that the walls of the Holy Court were transformed by the energy of the High Priest, the entire Holy Land might be in ruins now.
The patriarch had always thought that the High Priest was spending his own energy to build the Holy Court just to protect the Tree of Life, but now he found that his understanding seemed wrong. It was not only to protect the Holy Tree, but also to guard against it.
The elf warriors guarding the holy land appeared in front of the patriarch one after another.
They didn't speak, but their expressions were full of worry and doubt.
The patriarch waved his hand and let the guardian warriors continue to perform their duties. As for rebuilding the temple, we will talk about it later.
The patriarch stopped at the ruins of a corner of the outer temple and shouted into the air: "Come out, I know you are here."
Wang Ye appeared with Xiao Leimu and Jin Bao in his arms.
The four-headed body hugged the three-headed body, and there was a smaller one squatting on the shoulders of the three-headed body. The way the three little dolls looked at him clinging to each other made the patriarch who was full of sorrow couldn't help but curl his mouth.
The patriarch didn't ask how Wang Ye slipped in, but said, "Let me see the elf mark on the back of your hand."
Wang Ye stretched out his left hand, showing the back of his hand.
Two imprints light up.
The patriarch felt that this was a real elf imprint without touching it. People with this imprint must have the friendship and a certain degree of trust between the two elves.
The patriarch also deliberately released his mental power to check Wang Ye's body, but he didn't go too far. The mental power only circled around Wang Ye, but didn't go deep.
He did this just to check whether Wang Ye was really a child as he appeared on the surface.
There is no problem with the bone age, and there does not seem to be any misalignment between the soul and body.
Most importantly, the patriarch saw the intimate atmosphere between the human cubs and their wood elf cubs and that golden elf cub. It was a very natural family atmosphere, not deliberately, nor particularly sticky, The two elf cubs were completely relaxed and trusting in front of this human cub.
"You guys go out with me, it's not good to stay here for long." The patriarch greeted the third child.
"We want to meet the high priest." Wang Ye said, "We have something very important to tell her."
The patriarch frowned, looked at Wang Ye like an ignorant child, and said, "If there is anything important, you can tell me, and I will tell the high priest for you. The high priest has a noble status, and not everyone can see it. Originally, you didn't Can't appear in the Holy Land, especially you, originally I was supposed to erase your memory, "
"This matter must be discussed with the high priest. It is related to the intelligent parasites on the tree of life, as well as the tree of life and its consciousness." Wang Ye interrupted the patriarch's words and deliberately raised his voice.
The patriarch was startled, and was about to ask for details.
The high priest's soft and tired voice sounded in the ears of several people: "A Rui, bring them in."
The patriarch pursed his lips, but in the end he didn't disobey the high priest's intention and asked Sanxiao to follow him.
A gap was opened in the closed holy court, allowing four people to enter.
As soon as the three Wang Ye entered the holy court, they found that all the plants were gone, leaving only a human tree in the center of the holy court.
"Don't get too close, just talk over there." The high priest still had her eyes closed, her face was bloodless, and she looked extremely pale.
Wang Ye carried Lei Mu and walked a few steps towards the high priest.
The patriarch wanted to stretch out his hand to grab them, but he didn't know what to think, so he withdrew his outstretched hand.
The high priest made a helpless voice: "Don't go any further, I don't want to stimulate him anymore. You just said that the tree of life is still conscious?"
"Yes." Wang Ye really wanted to shield the worm mother parasitic on the tree of life, but obviously even the high priest couldn't do it, so he could only say so.
"How do you feel that the tree of life is still conscious?" The high priest can also feel the consciousness of the tree of life, but after being pointed out by Lei Mu that there are parasites in the endless forest elves, she doubts the tree of life Being parasitized, she naturally wondered whether the tree of life consciousness she usually felt was no longer the ontological consciousness of the tree of life.
Wang Ye looked down at Xiao Leimu in his arms.
Lei Mu faced the high priest and said solemnly: "I heard that, he told me not to approach him, said it was dangerous, and told me to leave."
The high priest and the patriarch looked up at the little Leimu at the same time.
The patriarch was surprised, but surprise flashed across the face of the high priest.
"You said you heard the voice of the tree of life?" the high priest confirmed.
Lei Mu nodded, and added: "It seems to have sounded directly in my head."
"Then how do you feel about the tree of life?" the high priest asked hastily.
Lei Mu replied without hesitation: "Kindly, I want to get closer."
"anything else?"
"What else?" Lei Mu didn't know how to sum it up.
The high priest specifically said: "Have you seen the light spot, it's at the root of the tree."
"Spot of light?" Lei Mu's eyes subconsciously turned to the root of the tree of life, looked at it for a while, and said, "I have nothing..."
Lei Mu's voice disappeared, and he saw a light spot.
No, to be correct, it was not a spot of light, it was a hazy circle of light, and he saw a small tree in the circle of light, which seemed to be malnourished, with drooping branches and no leaves left A few slices, looked like they were dying.
"What did you see!" The high priest's voice hurriedly followed.
Lei Mu heard that almost ethereal voice again, he heard that voice calling him: "My child, don't come over, go quickly."
Lei Mu's eyes turned red, and he murmured: "I saw a small tree, a glowing small tree, he is dying."
A strong surprise burst out on the face of the high priest, and then tears flowed from the corners of her tightly closed eyes, "He is not dead, he still exists, and he still has... That's good, that's good!"
The high priest wiped away her tears and quickly cleared up her emotions. When she faced Lei Mu again, her expression became extremely gentle: "Good boy, don't be afraid, now listen to me, you are not an ordinary wood elf cub, Your wings are also one of the evidences, this is the symbol of the ancient elves, but we lost this feature in the process of evolution, in order to integrate into this world, we have become more human-like."
Wang Ye and Lei Mu, including all the bosses in his space, showed strange expressions.
"Here are some secrets that only our elf high priests and kings can know. I will tell you. But you need to ask the children around you to leave first." The high priest said gently.
Lei Mu and Wang Ye understood the meaning of the high priest as soon as they heard it. The high priest seemed to want to pass the position of high priest to Lei Mu.
The patriarch's body shook. He seemed to have thought of something. He wanted to stop the high priest, but after seeing the high priest's expression, all his words of dissuasion were blocked in his throat.
Lei Mu shook his head, "I will not hide anything from Xiao Yezi, I will tell him whatever you tell me, if necessary."
The patriarch kept shaking his head behind him.
The high priest also sighed softly. She finally found a wood elf who was likely to be carrying the seed of the tree of life and awakened the ancient blood, but such a precious elf was more inclined to a human child.
No matter how gentle the high priest is, he will inevitably feel a little murderous towards Wang Ye at this time.
But she quickly put away this killing intent, who doesn't have a friend or two?What's more, the hatching of this elf cub might have a lot to do with this human cub.
Moreover, this human cub was able to sneak into the Holy Land without being checked by the Guangmen. This alone made it impossible to despise him.
"Son, what's your name? Where do you come from?" The high priest formally asked Wang Yedao with a gentle expression.
Wang Ye didn't want to offend this true demigod, so he replied truthfully, "My name is Wang Ye, and I'm also called Lei Ye. I'm a student of Meteor Magic School."
"Who is your advisor? Which family is your family?" the high priest asked again.
Wang Ye counted like children: "I will recognize my aunt in my family. Now there are Mumu, Jinbao, Xiaoyun, Xiaoguang and their groups, as well as Xiaojiao and Beibei, and a few homeless old men. With my masters. My family is called Little Leaf Family, I am the head of the family, and I am responsible for supporting the family."
Wang Ye proudly puffed out his chest.
Not to mention the reaction of the bigwigs in the worm nest to the group of family members counted out by Wang Ye, the high priest and patriarch laughed when they heard it.
They didn't know who Xiaoyun, Xiaoguang, etc. were, but if a child could be called Xiao, he must either be a child like him, or be a pet, and the two didn't ask in detail.
Wang Ye started to recite his master's music again.
The patriarch had heard the report, and he already knew it in his heart. He came to the high priest before, apart from wanting to talk about the insect plague, he just wanted to mention this extraordinary human child.
They may not care about a child, but this child's background really gives him a headache, no matter how he handles it.
Moreover, the patriarch couldn't judge whether the child's appearance in their secret realm represented something, and he didn't dare to deal with it casually, so he came to the high priest and wanted to ask the high priest if he had "seen" this child in the past, or if there was any omen.
The high priest smiled after listening to Wang Ye's list of masters.
She has been away from the outside for too long, and the names of these people are very unfamiliar to her, but judging from the explanation the child gave to his masters, the child's masters should be the strongest in the world at present, not to mention that the child also has a saint. Master Wuzong's principal.
Although I don't know the details of these "young people", the high priest has a very good impression of Meteor. It is a school with a very deep relationship with their elves. The window of contact with the outside world, many cubs in the growth period of the elves in the past would study in that school for a period of time.
At first, the elves and humans worked together to build the school, so that the young elves could have a foothold to integrate and adapt to the outside world.
Because of this natural goodwill and the two spirit marks on the back of Wang Ye's hand, the high priest completely dispelled his murderous intentions towards Wang Ye, and even gave birth to this young cub because the child said he was the breadwinner. A lot of good feelings.
Even if Lei Mu is what she thinks, is she going to let this child live alone like her, trapped in the Holy Land forever?
Wang Ye suddenly said: "Dear high priest, I don't know what the secret you want to tell Mumu? But based on some stories my masters told me, I think the secret you want to tell Mumu First, it may be related to the origin of the elves, second, it may be related to the relationship between the tree of life and the elves, and third, it may be related to the relationship between the parasites, elves and the tree of life. Am I right? ?”
The high priest was moved, "You are a very smart child. No wonder you have so many masters."
Wang Ye was not proud either, he just said: "I have seen the parasite race, and I still defeated... well, maybe it can't be said to be defeated. The intelligent parasite race was born not long ago and has not yet threatened the world. It happened to be defeated by me and When Mumu found out, we informed the mercenary guild and destroyed the parasitic conspiracy of the parasite tribe, but many parasites still escaped."
The high priest suddenly felt a surge of anger, which almost made her murderous intentions that had just disappeared reappear.
The high priest was angry, but this anger was not at Wang Ye, but at some despicable parasite hiding in the dark!
Stop trying to control me!
"You met a parasite race? Can you tell me about it in detail?" the high priest asked.
"Yes." Wang Ye briefly described what happened to him on Prisoner's Island.
The high priest was silent for a long time after listening.
The patriarch of the wood elves really wanted to ask the child for more details. He didn't know much about the parasite race, but he also heard about parasites from some prophecies that the high priest said before, and he knew that this race was terrible. It was so terrible that there was civil strife within the elves, and even the wood elves had to escape from the elves.
And according to the child, until now their elves, including their wood elves, are still suffering from it!
Seeing that the high priest didn't speak, Wang Ye couldn't wait... Time is running out, so he took the first step and said, "Put aside the secret you want to tell Mumu, and I will tell you some information I have."
The high priest looked at him.
Wang Ye said directly: "First of all, I can perceive where the parasites are. This may be because I contracted Xiaoguang and them, or it may be because the exercises I practice are quite special. Oh, Xiaoguang and the others were originally parasites. , but now they have mixed with me. I know what you want to say, don’t worry about Xiao Guang, they are farmers in the parasite family, they are only responsible for providing rations for the parasites, and they have no parasitic ability.”
In fact, there is Xiaoguang, but after Wang Ye made a contract with Xiaoguang, he forbade it and its group to evolve in this direction.
Xiaoguang himself has no such intentions. It is not interested in the evolution method of parasitizing other species, killing the other's consciousness and then merging, so as to evolve itself.It prefers to accumulate energy by hunting and eating prey, and then evolve in the direction it likes and needs through fighting.
Although this speed may be slower, the evolved ability is not strong, and it needs a little practice.But Xiaoguang felt that such a process was more interesting.
It can only be said that they are parasites, and not all insects have the same ideas.
Xiaoguang and his group, who can be subdued by Wang Ye, are also wonderful.
If the planktonic light worms are not strange, how could the ancient top-level war worms mentioned by Zong Lao be reduced to the bottom of the parasite race?
"You can subdue a parasite race?" The high priest felt incredible.
Wang Ye waved his hand and said indifferently: "This is not the point. The point is that Xiaoguang and I can both sense the parasite. If the parasite is not long, I can kill the parasite directly from the parasite's body, and the parasite There won't be any problems."
The high priest changed color.This is something she didn't do back then!
Wang Ye continued: "Even if the parasitism time is very long, the consciousness of some parasites is extremely tenacious. Even if the body has been fused, self-awareness still exists. In this case, as long as the consciousness of the parasite has not been completely swallowed, Then I can also help him separate from the parasite's consciousness, and then kill the parasite's consciousness alone, but the body that has been fused and transformed cannot be restored, but I think this is not too bad. "
"What did you say? You didn't lie to me?!" The high priest's voice changed.
The patriarch also looked at the child standing in front of him with surprise and expectation.
Can he really do what he says?
Not bragging?
The high priest once again felt that a certain idea was about to move, and she desperately suppressed this consciousness, and confirmed with the child again.This matter is too important, if this human cub can really do what he said, then...!
Wang Ye nodded: "I can tell you clearly now that the tree of life was indeed parasitized, or by a worm mother. Please note that it is the worm mother, not the worm mother. The worm mother is the source of a parasite family. With it, it can give birth to a whole parasite family. What's more, this worm mother parasitizes the tree of life, maybe it wants to change the life form of the parasite family from the root."
"Let's put aside the discussion on this point first, and then talk about the second point." Wang Ye raised two fingers: "I can also tell you clearly that you are not parasitized, and your consciousness is complete. In addition, the tree of life The consciousness still exists, then I can help you separate the consciousness of the worm mother from the tree of life, but she has been parasitic for so long and has almost seized all the energy of the tree of life, I am sure I can't do it, I need you and the help of the Tree of Life."
The high priest was first happy, then silent, and then quickly calmed down: "How do you want me to help?"
Wang Ye: "It's very simple, lend me your spiritual power, and then you can use your power to suppress the tree of life, and I will put my spiritual power and energy deep into the body of the tree of life, looking for the consciousness of the worm mother. Etc. After I find it, I will tell you, try to entangle it, and then you and I will work together to kill the worm mother consciousness, only in this way can the tree of life and yourself be saved."
Patriarch Fei Rui took a deep breath. He was not good at expressing his opinion. He felt that the elders should be invited over at this time. This matter is too important and involves too much. Should they trust this human child?
The high priest didn't fully believe in Wang Ye either.
How is she going to prove that this human child is not infested by parasites?
If the child is parasitized, is it also part of the conspiracy that he brought Lei Mu here?
Could it be an excuse that the child said to help him get rid of the insects, but he just wanted to penetrate the tree of life with his spiritual power and energy, and then completely control the tree of life and her?
There is no evidence for all of this, and she needs to judge by herself.
So how could she believe what the kid said was true?Is it true to help her and the tree of life, not to harm them?
Wang Ye looked at the high priest's expression, even though the other person's expression was very calm and calm, he could tell that the high priest didn't believe him.
This is normal, if it were him, he would not let a stranger who appeared out of nowhere, especially a little brat, "cure" him.
"You're about to lose control of the tree of life, right? No, it should be said that you're about to lose control of the mutated tree of life, and you, including yourself, are being swallowed up by this mutated worm tree. "
Wang Ye's expression really didn't look like a child's.
Zong Lao and Landau subconsciously looked at Wendi in the nest.
At this time, Wang Ye's eyes were particularly sharp, and his little expression was even a little mocking, like a thief who heard the flute.
Wen Di raised the corners of his lips.
"Did you know that insect plagues are happening everywhere in the entire wood elf secret realm?"
"Do you know where those insect plagues come from?" Wang Ye pointed to the tree of life: "This is the tree, it has mutated, it can split countless small insects, and pass them out from the soil, which seems very consuming Energy, but those little bugs can devour the entire secret realm to replenish the energy of the bug tree."
Wang Ye said coldly: "Once this worm mother devours all the plants in the secret realm, its energy will be further enhanced. As long as its energy overwhelms you, it can eat you thoroughly and fuse your Energy. Think about it, if the energy of two demigods plus a secret realm is fused to a worm mother, what it can become."
"And the first ones to suffer are you wood elves! The wood elves in this secret realm will be the first batch of parasites and the best nourishment for the parasites born by the evolved and upgraded worm mother. They will have the appearance of wood elves, The strength of the wood elves, even the memory of the wood elves, and at the same time possess unique abilities that the wood elves do not have."
"If these mutant wood elves join forces with other parasites to attack the elf land in the endless forest, what do you think will happen?"
The high priest and patriarch did not need to answer this question because they all knew the answer to this question.
The elves have been missing wood elves for too long. When they see a group of wood elves come back, even if they have doubts, they will welcome them into the clan.
And a batch of parasitic mutated wood elves entered the land of the elves, and then brought some parasites, as long as they first attacked the high-level elves...
The high priest Mu Shou and the patriarch Fei Rui shuddered!
Wang Ye also finally understood why the elves land was breached so easily, not only because the cubs inside were parasitized by the parasites, but also because of the arrival of a group of pseudo-wood elves.
The high priest signaled to the patriarch: "Go and invite the elders."
The patriarch left quickly without saying a word.
