He was also very curious about the reason.

"In fact, the sacred tree and the world tree are exactly the same. They were both Jianmu in the beginning."

"Before the Fifth Era, we were all the same. Although I have never met each other, I know there are many of my kind."

"Later, the Goddess of Nature sent her messengers to the mortal world and bestowed upon the human world seven world emblems, which resulted in the creation of seven world trees."

"Not far from me is Jianmu, which has the same roots as me. Its root system is not as developed as mine, and its branches and leaves are not as luxuriant as mine. It is inferior to me in every way!"

Shenmu's tone suddenly became excited.

"But it had better luck than me. When the God's Messenger was investigating, it recognized the God's Messenger's identity and secretly gave him a fruit. This is how it got the World Emblem."

"Trash is trash. Even if you get the World Emblem and become a World Tree, you still wither."

"Haha, is it worthy of being called the Prosperous World Tree? I think it's more appropriate to call it the Withered World Tree!"

Shenmu laughed hysterically.

Roland could feel the resentment of the sacred tree.

How can I not feel resentful?

There is no essential difference between the World Tree and the Sacred Tree. Obtaining the World Emblem means entering the system and becoming a world tree with an organization recognized by the Goddess.

The conditions of the Oro Sacred Tree are stronger than those of the Prosperous World Tree, which is equivalent to getting a high score in the written test when taking the civil service exam.

As a result, Prosperous World Tree got the position by bribing the examiner.

Who wouldn’t have high blood pressure if something like this happened?

Obviously stronger than the opponent, but suppressed for an entire era due to organizational issues, one can imagine how frustrated the Oro Shenmu must have been.

Roland silently endured the sacred tree crying and laughing in his consciousness, and his head almost exploded.

He roared several times, but Shenmu couldn't hear him at all.

We can only let it go crazy.

Fortunately, the self-control of the Oro sacred tree is much stronger than that of humans. Although it has suffered for an era, it is still alive, while the prosperous world tree has withered.

After venting several epochs of resentment, Oro said quietly: "I will give you a fruit that contains my power. Eat it, and you can detect the world emblem within a radius of about ten miles."

"I understand. I will try my best to find it, but I need time."

“The last thing I lack is time.”

After saying this, the Oro Shenmu fell silent and said no more.

It has said all it had to say.

Roland thanked the sacred tree again, carried the still sleeping Queen Lily on his back, and walked towards the royal city.

Ancient trees have to compete for living space, and so do people.

Whether it is the Oro sacred tree or him, they are just a small boat drifting in the sea of ​​suffering.

He didn't know whether he would end up on shore or capsize, but as long as the boat didn't sink, he would smile and steer the boat into the wind.

Volume 213: The City of Freedom: Chapter : Fairy Tales Come to Reality

With Lily's resurrection, all disputes ended.

She is the undisputed new queen.

Yet she was still asleep.

The fatal wound caused by the golden sword piercing her heart recovered well, but she never woke up.

Her heartbeat and breathing were normal, but she refused to wake up.

Roland originally thought that she would be fine after a few days of rest, but Lily had been sleeping for seven days and still hadn't woken up.

Fortunately, Princess Lucy has grown a lot after experiencing the drastic changes. She has taken over power on behalf of her sister and is quite capable.

Since I was born into a royal family, there are some educations that I cannot escape, such as politics.

She suppressed the urge to settle accounts and announced amnesty immediately.

Except for the two traitors Green and Brutus who were unforgivable, everyone else was an accomplice.

As long as you take the initiative to confess the problem, you can get a lighter punishment or even be exempted from punishment.

She did not say what level of punishment would be mitigated and what level of punishment would be exempted, but she pretended to be profound and said that actively exposing others could reduce the guilt.

Lucy publicly announced that the ministers who supported Green were following the Crown Prince in accordance with the will of the previous king and were not guilty.

After this order was issued, the political situation in the Oro Kingdom was basically stable. Although there were a few diehards who were still unwilling to accept it, normal people knew what to choose.

The residents of the royal city didn't even know what happened in the Senate, and only heard about Green's riot after it was over.

They are not interested in royal infighting, they would rather see the Queen at the new king's coronation ceremony.

Oro hasn't had a queen for many years, so this is something new.

During this period, Roland explored the remains of the World Tree around the location of the World Tree recorded in the Book of Epochs, but found nothing.

This is also normal.

The Prosperous World Tree is the most misnamed of the Seven Sisters of the World Tree.

Originally it was not even qualified to become the World Tree, but it relied on backdoor access to get to the top.

At the end of the Age of Ancient Trees, it was also the first to fall.

After two eras and hundreds of thousands of years, even if there were any remains of it left, it would be unlikely to be in the original location.

I can only say go with the flow.

The fruit given to him by the Oro sacred tree was definitely not an ordinary one. After eating it, not only could he detect the world emblem, but his ability to perceive other strange objects was also greatly enhanced.

Although I didn't find any remains of the World Tree these days, I got a lot of miscellaneous magical materials, so it wasn't in vain.

Roland was happily mining until he was stopped by the sad Princess Lucy.

"Roland, my sister hasn't woken up yet. I'm very worried."

"Don't worry, I guarantee that her soul is intact and her body is fully recovered. She may have a reason not to wake up."

"Help me, Roland!" Lucy's eyes were red and her voice was trembling.

Roland stopped, he couldn't refuse.

Lily had indeed been sleeping for quite a long time, and he was a little worried.

Following Lily back to the royal city and straight into the palace, I saw the maids bowing to Lucy along the way, and I felt as if I was in another world.

Lucy had a cold expression on her face as she headed straight for the bedroom where her sister was sleeping.

After sending the maid away, Lucy closed the door and pulled Roland to the bed.

"No matter when I come, my sister always seems to be asleep. But people can't sleep all the time."

Roland didn't say anything. He knew that Lucy hadn't finished her words and was still thinking.

Sure enough, the little princess who was forced to take charge of the country at a young age raised her head, bit her lip and looked at him. She looked a little hesitant, but her eyes did not dodge at all.

"Roland, have you heard of "Sleeping Princess"?"

Roland thought to himself, the Sleeping Princess had never heard of it, but Sleeping Beauty had.

Would this guy let him kiss the sleeping princess?

Princess Lily's soft lips must taste good, but this kind of fairy tale-like plot will never happen in reality.

How is it possible that a person in shock can be woken up by a kiss?

How much garlic do I need to eat to wake myself up?

Just as Roland's thoughts were flying, Lucy cleared her throat and began to tell a fairy tale.

Although the course of the story is completely different from Sleeping Beauty, the ending is no different.

The handsome prince kissed the princess who was cursed by the witch, lifting the curse, and they fell in love and lived happily ever after.

Sure enough, people from ancient times to the present, from China to the West, and even from other worlds, all have this beautiful vision.

Everyone is the same.

After telling the end of the story, Lucy murmured softly, "Roland, if I let someone else try, my sister would definitely be angry, but it's different for you."

"You are special. I have a feeling you can wake up my sister."

Young people should read less fairy tales, and should not live in a fairy tale world.

Roland wanted to wake her up, but he couldn't resist the girl's soft gaze.

Just try it, it won't change anything anyway.

Roland is very confident in his charm.

He is handsome, capable, and noble. He is indeed outstanding.

But this does not mean that he can violate objective laws.

"I can try, but I can't guarantee whether it will work or not."

Hearing this, Lucy was overjoyed and pulled Roland to the bed and gave up her seat.

"Wait, take a shower and change your clothes first. You've been out for several days and you smell."

Roland wanted to protest. He was a super magician, so how could he have any smell?

But he thought that the clothes on his body were just ordinary things after all, and even if they didn't smell, they would still be dusty.

Lucy was about to ask the maid to take Roland to the bathroom, but Roland directly refused.

"Do you think I don't know how to take a shower? I don't like being looked at by strange women."

Since Roland was asked for help, Lucy certainly didn't dare to object, so she took Roland to the bathroom.

"You can take a bath in peace. No one will disturb you. Someone will bring your clothes to you soon."

Roland felt a little uneasy when Lucy pushed him into the bathroom.

It can be seen that although Lucy said she was just trying it out, she actually had high hopes for it.

If he couldn't wake Lily, she would probably be disappointed.

Roland casually took off his coat and looked down at his muscular body, his mind going blank.

Hot water was already ready in the bathroom, so there was no need to wait. Just as he was about to step into the bathtub, he was surprised to find that this was a bathroom for women only.

The washstand is filled with women's cosmetics and skin care products.

There is also a faint floral scent in the air.

It is easy to tell from the exquisite decoration that this is the bathroom of a noble woman.

In the entire palace, the only ones who were qualified to own this kind of bathroom were the old king's concubines and Lily Lucy.

First, exclude the old king’s widow.

Lucy is a very reliable person and she definitely wouldn't do something so outrageous.

This bathroom looked like it had been used not long ago, and the scent of floral water was still there.

The answer is obvious, it's Princess Lucy's bathroom.

She is not risk-averse at all.

Roland smiled self-deprecatingly. Princess Lucy was young and probably wouldn't think so much.

She probably wanted to find a high-end bathroom, so she pushed him in.

Since Princess Lucy was so frank, there was no need for him to have any extra thoughts.

Taking a shower and changing clothes before doing important things is not a formality, but a means to adjust your mindset.

Through the solemn sense of ritual, you can clear away distracting thoughts, concentrate and calm your mind, making it easier to perform at your best.

The girl's bathroom had a faint fragrance, which made Roland's heart beat faster and his blood flow downwards involuntarily.

This time when I went out, Melanie followed me, but there was no time and space.

He had to keep an eye out for assassins every night, and the thousand-day guard against thieves was very exhausting. After arriving in Oro, he was busy helping Lily consolidate her power, and he had no time to be intimate with his wife.
