Who is that person
Lin Yuan didn't ask any more questions.
Because in the communication of mental power, Shi Pang had already told her the answer without any concealment.
In the White Tower, there is only one creature that looks like a human but has no human feelings at all. For Lin Yuan, there is only one - Her Majesty the Queen who rules the human empire.
Lin Yuan was often by the side of His Majesty and had clearly felt that strange and powerful inhuman feeling.
It turned out that four hundred years ago, she had come here like Lin Yuan, and worked out a human captivity plan with the natural enemies of mankind - the powerful mutants.
At this moment, Lin Yuan vaguely saw the emperor in a white dress turning around at the top of the white tower thousands of miles away, and gazing at him from afar through the long distance.
She was born four hundred years ago. By now, she has far exceeded the limit of human lifespan.
There have always been records of changes of thrones in the historical records of the empire.
Those yellowed history books mechanically record the death of each queen over the past few hundred years, and the succession of each new princess.
But in fact, the imperial power has never changed.
For four hundred years, the same figure has been standing in front of the small window at the top of the White Tower.
Her Majesty in a white dress just stood on the top of the white tower, overlooking the entire human empire.
What’s even more terrifying is that no one in the White Tower noticed the strangeness of this incident.
Humans were unaware that their emperor had gradually transformed into a monster that had lived for hundreds of years.
They don’t even know that they are poultry raised by their natural enemies.
The sentinels are still rushing to the contaminated area.
The guides were confined to their backyards, willingly giving up their own powerful abilities.
Little did they know that the empire had already captured them as tribute.
In exchange for a small circle of living space for humans.
In the spiritual realm, Lin Yuan looked at the illusory figure on the distant white tower.
I don’t know what kind of mentality the young Majesty had when he came to the depths of the contaminated area hundreds of years ago and offered the entire human race as a sacrifice.
But she knew that the world she lived in now made her hate it.
Along the way, she saw countless tears and blood shed by sentinels and guides.
Sacrificed by their own kind, the Sentinels' bones and blood turned into new mutants, and the Guide's spiritual power supported the polluted zone that ravaged the human world.
Yunluo's teacher, Du Yuanyuan's lover, those lovely sentinels who guard the post, Ni Ji's comrade-in-arms...
All the countless pains inflicted by the tentacles remain in Lin Yuan's memory.
In this nightmarish world, the grand white tower is actually built with the flesh, blood and bones of countless humans.
Shi Pang, who was sitting in the pavilion fiddling with butterflies, turned around.
She saw a cold full moon.
A huge silver moon rose, and its light and waves invaded the boundless sea of flowers, silently occupying half of the sky.
The still very young Kraken, with the silver moon behind it and golden light in its eyes, was confronting him vaguely.
"you?"
A tiny human being could actually reversely invade his mental image. Was he trying to fight against himself? Shi Pang found it very novel.
She really liked this human guide.
In the past, the spiritual world of human guides was as colorful as a dream, magnificent and magnificent. As long as they were injected with powerful strength, it was enough to support an independent little world.
Like the one she herself parasitizes,
Beautiful sea of flowers and amusement parks with colorful lights forever on. Scorching sun and a land where life begins at dusk and ends at dawn.
What a beautiful world! It is the guide’s dream deep in his spirit.
Unfortunately, over the years, the spiritual power of the cultivated human guides has gradually dried up, and it is difficult to encounter such a vast and magnificent spiritual scene again.
The little Kraken in front of her was so interesting that she couldn't let it go.
She felt that it was not easy for this little human guide to survive to this day. Every one of her compatriots who met her would be eager to devour her.
The way they express affection is different from that of humans.
Grab, devour, merge, and let the things you cherish stay forever and become a part of your body and spirit.
"You seem a little irrational." said Queen Shi Pang.
The breeze from the sea of flowers lifted her black veil, and five eyes of different sizes opened above her beautiful red lips.
The pupils in the five eyes were pitch black, so deep and pure that it was soul-stirring and seemed to be able to devour everything in the world.
The sea of flowers became more brilliant at that moment. Countless dazzling petals rolled up in the sky, and the colorful colors slowly drove away the moonlight and sea that invaded this corner of the world.
"You should know that you are far from being my opponent." Shi Pang's voice sounded cold and a little unhappy.
"You are still so young. You just walked through a corridor and experienced the misery of several human lives, but you have already scarred yourself, haven't you?"
Passing through that colorful corridor, Lin Yuan, who had been swept by the painful spiritual world of countless human beings, was actually already covered with scars.
The tentacles were limp and their smooth skin was covered with cuts and scars.
Many of them were even broken at the wrist, wriggling pitifully in a pile of tentacles, with blood flowing from the broken ends.
That is to get rid of the entanglement of mental power and avoid being hurt when being dragged into a deeper spiritual world.
Although he looked extremely miserable, he dared to invade the spiritual world of the Pillar of Food at this time.
Wounds, breaks, and shrinkage of the spiritual body are all manifestations of damaged mental strength and difficulty in supporting it.
Shi Pang shook his head, thinking that Lin Yuan was not a very calm and rational person.
"You should kneel before me like she did back then and beg for our charity. Maybe I will consider giving you a way out."
The voice of the Pillar of Food gradually sounded gentler, but deep in those ink-black pupils, a thick black flame slowly ignited.
Across a small pavilion, five pupils burning with black flames captured Lin Yuan.
The Kraken from the spiritual world and the queen of the City of Pon-Eaters confront each other in the sea of flowers.
In the real world outside the mental picture.
Ni Ji raised his arm to block the mutant's flying kick.
The kick was so fast that even Ni Ji's dynamic vision couldn't catch it.
The humanoid mutants were small in stature, but their attack power was extremely strong. They could kick a giant panda over ten meters away and break a heavy stone pillar.
If a human body is kicked hard, even if it does not die, it will be seriously injured.
Rachel had been kicked in the back a moment ago and was still spitting blood from his mouth, struggling to get up.
Ni Ji relied almost entirely on the physical instincts honed over the years. Before the kick was fully completed, he immediately reached out with his arms to embrace the enemy, curling up his body, and the red blade flew towards the enemy's legs and knees that were supporting the body on the ground.
In the eyes of outsiders, the two separated in an instant, and the leg whip and the red blade flashed at the same time.
Ni Ji was thrown away by the kick and fell back to the place where Lin Yuan was standing with a bang. He was unable to stand and fell into the sofa.
The male humanoid mutant knelt on the ground with one leg bent, blood oozing from his knee.
He calmly looked down and realized that his hamstrings were broken and he could no longer use that ghostly and deadly kick whip.
The female mutant landed beside him and spun the short knife in her hand. One of her arms was broken, but her expression remained unchanged, as if she didn't care.
Of course, he felt nothing at all when his companion broke a leg.
However, the human sentinels were also lying in disarray, with most of them injured and fallen.
Those who were still able to move were struggling to get up.
Ni Ji checked his physical condition and found that his leg bone had been fractured a long time ago and several ribs were broken.
The spiritual body of the killer whale was even more scarred and wailing.
Ni Ji frowned, slowly stood up, and looked up at Lin Yuan out of habit.
Lin Yuan, who had been standing there with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes.
Those golden pupils are so brilliant.
Wisps of golden light flowed in his pupils, and he glanced down from above.
Ni Ji had seen Lin Yuan's golden pupils several times.
On the altar in that dream, in that damp cave, at the most intense moments of countless battles.
Every time he saw it, he was terrified.
This time, it seemed more mysterious and mysterious than ever before, revealing a terrifying divinity.
The vast and colorful gold flowed in his eyes, so beautiful that it almost didn't look human.
Golden eyes stared at him.
Lin Yuan raised his fingers that were pressing on the sofa, grabbed Ni Ji's collar, and pulled him in front of him.
She lowered her long eyelashes slightly, lowered her head, and kissed his lips.
Ni Ji hummed.
Hmm... There are still a lot of people here. The battle is not over yet.
Too, too dangerous!
Lin Yuan, what's wrong with you
There was no time to ask countless questions. My confused thoughts were washed away.
Lin Yuan's tongue broke in and plundered his mouth wantonly.
The powerful guiding element was like strong liquor, and the smell of blood spread between each other's lips and tongues.
The smell of guide element and blood.
The concentration and terrifying intensity impacted the sentinel's brain.
Ni Ji's mind went blank for a moment and he was unable to think.
The smooth and moist invader carried a deadly scent, stirring wildly in his mouth, entwining his lips and tongue, breaking his sanity and taking away his soul.
That is the guiding element of the forest garden. Like a deadly poison, the strongest liquor.
His mouth was sealed and he could only accept such strong pheromones entering his body.
Lin Yuan suddenly kissed him in front of everyone, making him feel at a loss as to what to do and yet he fell in love with her instantly.
I should be ashamed, but I am powerless to resist.
In the chaos, the only thing that could be heard was the wounded killer whale rolling over and making comfortable calls. All its wounds began to heal in happiness.
What's wrong, what happened, why are you doing this to me.
How should we react now
Before he could figure everything out, Lin Yuan had already let him go.
A strand of watery silk thread was pulled and broken between each other's lips.
Ni Ji's eyes were blank, and he could only see Lin Yuan's golden pupils shining brightly in front of him.
She stared at her sentinel like a predator, satisfied after getting the food she wanted.
She licked her wet lips with the tip of her little tongue and closed her golden eyes again.
The bloody and fierce battlefield was silent for a moment, and both their own people and the enemy's mutants looked towards the two men.
When Ni Ji came to his senses, his face flushed and he could hardly look directly at the gazes of his comrades on the battlefield.
Why did Lin Yuan suddenly open his eyes and do this to himself
And he didn't even resist.
In front of everyone!
He didn't even know whether he should continue fighting or find a crack in the ground to bury himself.
"Don't be shy, we've already noticed something's wrong between you."
Nicole, who was standing nearby, couldn't bear to watch it anymore and spoke out to comfort Ni Ji.
Although she herself was actually stunned by Lin Yuan's sudden action just now.
They were either sentinels or guides, and were very sensitive to subtle movements and emotional changes.
On the night before departure, when Ni Ji came running over so recklessly and Lin Yuan showed a rare smile, who could not notice it
Although she was aware of the undercurrent of emotions between them, Nicole could never have imagined that Lin Yuan would be so decisive and efficient in his actions.
It was clear that two or three days ago, she was standing under the flower wall of her house, kicking pebbles with a confused look on her face, telling herself about her worries and saying that she had not figured out her feelings for Ni Ji.
Before I figured it out, I looked like a young girl, naive and ignorant as her first love.
Once they had thought it through, they wiped out the sentry within two or three days. It was obvious that the two of them had done everything in just two or three nights.
This guy is unconventional, daring to think and do, and his personality is really all-round. Even when he is in love.
In the idol dramas of Empire, there are only shy and blushing guides and charming sentinels who are pressed against the wall.
This was the first time Nicole had seen a guide take the initiative in a relationship.
Nicole held her forehead and sighed, feeling a little strange, but also very happy. It seemed that her admiration for Lin Yuan had taken on a strange new direction.
In the mental picture, Lin Yuan opened his eyes and licked his lips.
The injured tentacles healed at a speed visible to the naked eye. The arms and legs gradually became smooth and shiny, solid again, and moved vigorously in the sea of flowers.
The moonlight in the picture, which was being pushed back step by step, became brighter again, and the tide surged up again.
The cold moon shines brightly, and the ebb and flow of the sea tides occupy a corner of the world.
The bright moon, representing the spiritual landscape of Lin Yuan, invades in the opposite direction.
It cannot completely cover the world, but it has firmly occupied a corner and is competing with the land covered with flowers, confronting it from afar.
It was as if it was saying what to the spirit being in front of it.
Am I qualified enough
I may not be as strong as you, but I am not that weak either. And I also carry a granary with me, so I can replenish my energy at any time.
Look at me, am I qualified enough to stand in front of you
She was waiting for the other party's answer.
The queen of Food Pang City wore a black dress and a black veil on her face. Her five dark eyes were stained with thick black flames as she stared at Lin Yuan.
She was a very strong spirit. In that dark gaze, if she showed any sign of weakness, she would want to retreat and kneel down to beg under that gaze.
Lin Yuan is now familiar with such mature and powerful mutants. They are calm, rational, not afraid of pain, not afraid of harm, and have almost no weaknesses.
Most of the time, they don't have the emotional ups and downs that humans do. They don't have any weak spots that can be attacked.
Such an enemy is undoubtedly powerful and invincible and extremely difficult to defeat.
But Lin Yuan felt that he could understand their thoughts and sometimes could keenly grasp how to communicate with them effectively. It was even easier for him than when facing humans.
Lin Yuan thought that maybe it was because their blood was deeply buried in her body. Sometimes she also thought in the same way as them.
Strong fighting ability and unwillingness to compromise are just the bargaining chips that allow you to sit down and communicate.
Whether the fighting ability is strong or not is actually never the most important thing for the mutants.
But if you can't even withstand basic mental pressure, you are nothing more than a low-level ant in their eyes, and it will be difficult for you to even get a second glance of attention.
Now, she stood in front of this powerful mutant, her mental image and the sea of flowers invaded each other, and she was qualified to communicate on an equal footing.
These strange creatures are not human, but Lin Yuan knows that they also have things in their minds that they want to know, pursue and obtain.
There is a path that their race longs for and has been exploring.
Lin Yuan extended his tentacles slowly and cautiously along the only path of communication.
Shi Pang's five dark eyes stared at Lin Yuan.
Four hundred years ago, a human knelt before them and sacrificed the entire human race to them.
They nodded and agreed to each other's plan coldly.
Four hundred years later, a new human guide stood before him again.
She was obviously still very young, less than twenty years old, but she dared to stand up and challenge myself who had lived for hundreds of years.
She still wanted to negotiate, to overturn everything and start over.
Although she is still very weak, she is indeed qualified.
A hurricane rolled up in the sea of flowers, and the colorful petals rolled into a giant dragon in the wind.
The bright moon waits quietly while the waves of the sea rise and fall.
Above the earth, the sky is like a glass bell turned upside down on the earth. Outside the transparent cover is the scene of the real world.
In the battlefield of the real world, in the devastated castle, the corpses of mutants of all sizes piled up like mountains.
The human sentinels were covered in blood, but they always supported each other and stood up again and again.
Finally, the last two humanoid mutants fell first.
Under the transparent top of the head, Ni Ji held down the last humanoid mutant who had fallen to the ground, and the blade passed across her neck.
Lin Yuan and Queen Shi Pang both looked up.
The sentry's face was pasted on the transparent sky, magnified very large.
The mutant's blood splashed all over Ni Ji's face.
His knife was blood red, the fingers holding the knife were also red, his face was covered in blood, and there was a bloody wound cut diagonally on his handsome face. The whole person looked like he had been soaked in a pool of blood.
Only those eyes were clear and bright, hiding their determination and indomitable spirit, and their unwillingness to fall even if they would rather die.
The male humanoid mutant had his legs cut off and his stomach ripped open, his human-like internal organs spilled all over the floor. Having lost his ability to fight, he lay on the ground, looking at the roof expressionlessly.
The female mutant's throat was cut, blood spread out behind her. She lay next to her companion, blinking her eyes and looking at the roof with no expression.
The silver scales of Nicole's spirit body fell off, and half of its tail was broken. It was originally a long silver snake with shining scales, but now it has become very small.
The bloody little snake struggled to surge in the battlefield, using its tiny body to desperately lift up the fallen Du Yuanyuan, providing her with spiritual energy.
Du Yuanyuan opened her eyes, touched the already tiny silver head with great reluctance, and slowly stood up with her blood-stained body trembling.
Rachel reached out and pushed Yun Luo beside him. Yun Luo's face was pale and he had lost consciousness.
However, his spiritual body, the black unicorn, did not disappear after the main body fell into a coma. It dug at the remaining black hoof smoke, lowered its head and stubbornly stayed on the battlefield.
Several wounded soldiers supported each other and managed to stand up.
They held out their hands.
Lin Yuan in the mental picture is looking up.
On the transparent dome, Ni Ji's wounded palm stretched out, superimposed on it were Rachel's beastly lion claws, the sharp horn of a unicorn, Du Yuanyuan's bandaged hand, and Nicole's delicate little hand.
Several people worked together and pressed their stacked palms down together.
No one spoke. The hands held together encouraged each other.
Lin Yuan looked up. Outside the sky, the sticky blood on her companions' arms mixed together and dripped from above, falling on the dome and touching her heart.
The arms dispersed, and the warriors raised their broken bodies, stepped on the corpses of countless mutants, and faced the queen standing on top of the stone pillar in the hall.
That is the real body of Queen Shi Pang.
The spirit body of Queen Shi Pang faced Lin Yuan in the mental picture.
Her original body was standing in a hall full of corpses, facing the human warriors who had killed all the mutants in the castle.
Would she be afraid? Not even close.
But at this point, she couldn't help but feel that she was shocked by something.
Sometimes humans are ridiculously weak, pathetic and inferior. But sometimes, they do have something that can capture their hearts.
Although now, she still hasn't fully figured out what it is.
"You don't have any good intentions towards us."
In the mental image, Shi Pang's dark pupils looked at Lin Yuan and spoke slowly,
"Your intentions are obvious. If you succeed, I think you humans will still go to war against us, and will want to kill and expel my people and take back our land."
"You hold such a mindset and do not even try to hide it, yet you still want our support?"
Lin Yuan only said one sentence, "But, such a future has infinite possibilities. Infinite possibilities for both of us."
Give freedom back to mankind.
This is a way to survive, for both hostile races.
Although we don’t know what the future holds, the possibilities are endless.
Unlike today, the world is dead, dirty and corrupt, and the entire human race is slowly sinking into the quagmire.
Humanity is slowly heading towards destruction, an outcome that any wise person can see. By that time, the mutants that parasitize humans will eventually have no way out.
Lin Yuan walked for a long time, groping for the secrets hidden in this twisted world.
Now, I have come to the present moment, standing before the queen who represents the mutant species.
She threw out her true thoughts and demands to this natural enemy of mankind.
Give freedom back to mankind.
The wind in the sea of flowers stopped, the black veil fell, and the corners of Shi Pang's mouth curled up slightly.
"I like you, you give me a different feeling."
"Indeed, I don't like the plan of keeping humans in captivity either. Then I will support you this time. From today on, we will no longer provide bones to the White Tower. We will no longer trade with the human emperor in the White Tower."
She took off the emerald necklace on her chest and handed it to Lin Yuan.
"You want this, right? Since I promised you, I'll give it to you."
"Act according to your own ideas, cute little Kraken. I want to see how far you and your sentinels can go in the end."
Lin Yuan reached out, took the green gem and held it in his palm.
She wanted to say thank you, but she also didn't want to say thank you.
"We may have a chance to meet in the future." Lin Yuan said honestly, "When we meet again, it may still be a battlefield like this, and you and I will still be enemies."
"That's hard to say." Shi Pang stood in the sea of flowers and laughed.
"I understand humans just as well as you do. You humans are actually a strange race. Perhaps in the future I will see some humans actively looking for us to communicate, trade, or even establish diplomatic relations."
"Who can say for sure? Like you said, everything is possible."
"I am looking forward to that unknown world."
Following the voice of the Food Queen, Lin Yuan's spirit body withdrew from the mental image of the sea of flowers.
She opened her eyes and found herself back in the almost ruined castle.
The corpses of the mutants were scattered all over the place, the columns had collapsed, and the ground was littered with debris. In front of the steps, the figure of the Food King Queen disappeared.
Her companions, who were covered in wounds, turned around and looked at her in surprise and joy.
Lin Yuan lowered his head and opened his palm. Just like in the mental image, he held the green gem in his palm.
"You can go back now."
Lin Yuan looked at the green gem in his hand and said, "I got what I wanted and also knew everything I wanted to know."
She tightened her fingers and held the green stone.
Finally, we were able to withdraw, everyone was badly injured, but everyone was still alive.
The wounded companions supported each other and walked out on the ruins.
Scattered petals, cool and quiet night.
The green gem in Lin Yuan's hand glowed brightly all the way.
That is the Queen's necklace, a special gem condensed from this world. It can shine on the Box of Truth and guide them on their final path.
In fact, there is no need for guidance, everyone already knows how to walk their own path.
The tentacles moved underground, sharing the truth that Lin Yuan saw in his mental vision with all his comrades in the team.
Rachel carried Yunluo.
Yun Luo, who was hanging on his shoulder with one arm broken, said softly, "So. Back then, the teacher was sacrificed as a sacrifice."
Du Yuanyuan carried Nicole on her back. Nicole had used up too much energy and fell asleep on her back.
"So, he was not allowed to come back alive because he discovered this secret and found out that they were secretly sacrificing the guide."
Du Yuanyuan's voice was not loud, but she spoke with gritted teeth and deep hatred.
Ni Ji remained silent all the way. He knew from a very early on that his teammates were killed innocently.
Revenge on the White Tower was his only obsession.
Walk out of the castle, in the sea of flowers at night.
Du Yuanyuan took out the key to open the door from her bosom. When they were outside the gate of Food City and going through the entry procedures, the mutant gave them the key to leave.
The key is a tiny cicada shell, as translucent and beautiful as jade.
As long as you apply for entry in accordance with the regulations, you will be given a key to leave, which is the characteristic of this food city.
At first I thought the mutants here could communicate, which was very humane and a good thing.
Now that we know the truth, we realize that the contaminated area is easy to enter and exit. From another perspective, it is because the column has matured and completely lost its human nature.
The contaminated area welcomes and desires humans to come and go at any time, so that they can devour the spirits of sentinels and ordinary people who died in the contaminated area and strengthen themselves better.
On the contrary, places like the Golden Tree Contaminated Area where keys are difficult to obtain are because the Pillars still retain their consciousness from their human days and do not want to see their compatriots being devoured endlessly, so they exclude humans from entering and leaving.
The truth of the matter is so cruel. It makes people sigh in every aspect.
Du Yuanyuan threw the key into the air.
The escape door to the outside world was opened in mid-air.
The comrades carrying the wounded stepped away first. Rachel carried Yunluo, and Du Yuanyuan carried Nicole, and their figures disappeared from the door.
Lin Yuan was about to enter.
The escape door that was opened in the air suddenly closed when she was about to step in.
"He is carrying the Queen's belongings. He is a distinguished guest."
A voice sounded in the air as the door closed.
"Please go through the main entrance, our distinguished guest. We will see you off politely."
There was no room for argument, the door closed and the voices disappeared in the air.
Go through the main door
Do I have to run through this sea of flowers again
These deformed creatures who like to imitate humans but fail to imitate them properly always come up with some confusing rules.
Lin Yuan turned around and looked at Ni Ji.
In the silent night, the smell of battle and blood still lingered on him.
The two people left behind had to go through the long sea of flowers before they could return to the outside world.
Just the two of them walked through the sea of flowers again.
For some reason, the sentry's ears turned red.
