“Why? I think it shouldn’t be any loss?”

To each other That categorical refusal, William asked with the same expression.

“There is a loss. I have been running this rebel settlement for several years. People here trust me very much, and I also trust them very much… It can be said that in order to rebel against Holy All the preparations made by Duke Tree are based on this.”

Ebony replied in a deep voice.

But William just said lightly:

“It’s not a reason.”

If you find yourself deceived, then the most stupid thing to do It is because they are reluctant to bear sunk costs and sink deeper and deeper.

After hearing William’s answer, Ebony’s eyes crossed the other side, turned to the crowd practicing against each other in the open space not far away, turned to the craftsmen who were making rune props, and finally looked towards a few playfuls. Playful children.

After a long silence, he slowly opened the mouth and said:

“Because of this, no matter what you say is true or false, I can’t afford to say this sentence. The price of coming out.”

Whether the forty-three people have been transformed into undead, as long as I pointed this out to them, it means that things have reached an irreversible situation.

If it is true, then as a listener of the “big mother”, or as a forest elf who abides by the ancient contract, he must let these people return to death completely.

And if it is false, then in the interior of the rebel army, there will be a rift that will never be repaired. It’s not even an impossible thing to split on directly. After all, slandering a forest elf as an undead is definitely the most vicious accusation in their culture.

In other words, no matter what you choose, you will lose the trust of these people.

“Is that so?”

As if he had already guessed that the other party would answer this, William didn’t reluctantly nod.

“Then go on as you wish, I don’t care.”

William shrugged, so replied.

After all, he had no hope for the so-called rebels here.

Whether these people are alive or undead, the battle strength they can ultimately provide for themselves is too insignificant. Moreover, based on his previous simple contact with the grumpy named Solo, William couldn’t be too confident that the entire Ravenwood would be handed over to these forest elf fundamentalists in the future.

To be honest, if it wasn’t for the fact that Ebony claimed to have a judgment weapon in his hand, a World Tree hundred-year life condensation that can completely heal his wounds, and most importantly, the protection of the frost witch Neh box. William might prefer to first approach the Duke of Holy Tree, who shares his surname, and then consider who he should work with.

Perhaps for the forest elves, Flaro, who abandoned the ancient covenant and chose to turn to the empire, is an out-and-out forest elves sinner and traitor. But for William, this kind of people who will give priority to actual interests, rather than blindly following religious traditions, may be more suitable for negotiating conditions. The criteria for such people to screen allies is to judge the actual strength of the other party and their ability to Gained benefits instead of listening to the voice of “God” heard in a trance after drinking a psychedelic drug.

And whether it’s power or profit, these are things William can control. But he really couldn’t control what sound the other party would hear after falling into a trance hallucination, and what he would do afterwards.

If the Duke of Holy Tree is really like what Ebony said, the kind of grass that only clings to the powerhouse, then he will only have more bargaining chips in discussing cooperation with her – after all, in William’s opinion. Within the scope of knowledge, there should be no one in the entire world who can be stronger than himself, and no one can promise more benefits than himself.

So it doesn’t matter to William whether Ebony wants to trust his own judgment or not.

“However, let me tentatively give you a piece of advice.”

Without waiting for the other party to reply, William also looked towards a not far away, where he was busy with his own affairs in the open space. The forest spirit said:

“What do you want to do with these undead is your own business. But when you finally make a choice, please don’t deceive yourself. Now you may still have a chance to redeem Some people, but if you continue to deceive yourself like this, you can’t save anyone in the end.”

William said flatly.

Although the other party seemed to rationally explain to him the reason why he was unwilling to accept the tentative plan, William could vaguely guess the reason why the other party was really unwilling to do so.

Compared with all his efforts over the past few years, he was more afraid of finding out that all of this was caused by himself.

For the forest elves, becoming neither life nor death, spreading corrupt undead, is a far more terrifying ending than death. If what William said was true, he would be the greatest sinner who brought back those who should have died peacefully as undead.

“I…”

Looking at William’s dull eyes, Ebony could only utter one syllable for a long time.

“I suggest you investigate the priests under your command, especially what the alchemy potions of suspended animation they make… But these are things to come later. Give me your reward. The previous agreement between us is still valid, you pay me, and I will help you sit on the throne.”

William spoke slightly faster.

William was more interested in this than the truth of the matter.

Seeing that William didn’t tangle too much on this topic, Ebony Weiwei sighed in relief, and continued:

“The thing is in the deepest part of the tree hole, and there are three It is protected by a layer of seal. When everyone is here and the meeting is over, I will take you there to open the seal.”

William hearing this frowned said:

“You want to accompany these people It’s your own business for the undead to play the house, I’m not interested. I’m only interested in the things you said earlier.”

William said, pointing to the deep invisible not far away The dark hole at the bottom asked:

“Is the tree hole you said there?”

Ebony nodded, but before he had time to say anything, the man beside him disappeared.

All that remained was a human-shaped silhouette flickering with tiny electric lights.

And as for where the other party went, it goes without saying.

“However, without my help, those three seals would definitely not be able to be opened…especially the third.”

Wu Mu was stunned for a long time before spirit slowly recovers. said.

…………

“This kind of boring cutscene cg can finally be skipped freely.”

Standing at the bottom of the tree hole , said William, who was stroking the invisible Formation with his hand.

Although he is indeed very curious about why the forest elves who were “rescued” by Ebony keep the spirit of living people. But compared to this, at the moment, he is still more concerned about the phylactery of his past partners.

After confirming the authenticity of those things, I have the time and means to investigate other things.

When he came to this tree hole, he found that the scenery here was a little familiar, as if he had been to a similar place in the past – but this is also a normal thing , Previously in the game, there were about seven or eight copies of Underground City around the World Tree. If you are playing the forest elf archive, there will be three more special copies of Underground City.

Therefore, he couldn’t remember for a while, which dungeon the scene here was more similar to.

While thinking, William used the deformation system spell to tear the First Layer of the three Formations torn a crack enough for him to pass.

The magical accomplishments of these forest elves can only be described as tragic, and it can be seen that those who perform these spells have tried their best to make the seal of this cave a little stronger. But in William’s eyes, this level of Formation is not much stronger than plastic wrap.

Second Layer is a Formation built by life magic, which is much stronger than the previous one. But just like the Formation that uses the [Green Guard] outside, this kind of strength is just relying on the huge life force of World Tree, and the number is just flying. William repeated the trick by grafting an external source of magic, and it was equally easy to crack it.

But the third Formation stopped William.

The third Formation looks like a translucent film with a light frost, and like the first Formation, it’s actually not much stronger than plastic wrap. Some impatient William, with his fingers infused with a lot of magic, easily tore it to shreds.

However, just as he tore the Formation apart easily and was about to step over, the Formation instantly recovered and stopped him outside.

Not patched, nor rebuilt.

It’s like replaying a video of a broken mirror, and it’s restored like a time-lapse.

Facing this situation, William was silent for a moment.

In his cognition, there is only one spell that can do this, and that is the Frost-type Peak spell [Anti-Entropy].

The effect of this spell in the game is to backtrack the time within a certain range to the state five seconds ago. Whether it is the state of the body, the position of everyone, or the cooling time of the spell, it will return to the state five seconds ago regardless of the enemy or the enemy. Of course, this spell can only affect everything that is still alive, and cannot be traced back. Save the dead.

After crossing over, William found that he could more precisely control the specific range (not exceeding the maximum casting range) and the length of time (within five seconds).

In William’s cognition, apart from himself, there is only one person in this world who has learned the spell of [anti-entropy].

And that person also obtained the title of Frost Witch because of his accomplishments in Frost spells.

“Nich, is that really you?”
