But they really didn't dare laugh. If they accidentally laughed out loud at this moment, would their lives come to an end? No one knew, so they could only hold it in, holding it in like constipation.
The forest grandmother who was watching from the side narrowed her eyes slightly, not because she was angry, but because she was laughing. It seemed that she had not seen such a happy thing for a long time, and she did not even try to stop Ivy.
"Okay... OK... Very good..." Ivy gritted her teeth and spoke slowly, "Then let's do this. If you can truly prove you have experience, you can ask me to do anything, as long as it's within my power. But if you can't prove it, then get out of here... No. Then you'll have to provide Grandma with the nectar she used to have for free, and work for the forest... for ten years, also for free."
Aesop thought for a moment and said, "It doesn't sound fair to me."
"Unfair? Ha, you underestimate what I can do." Ivy sneered, "I am an elder of the Yoel Forest. What I can do for you is beyond your imagination."
"Then can you open all the nightmare shops in the forest to me for free?" Aesop asked.
Ivy's mouth twitched slightly.
Damn, can't you just ask for something a little more refined? Isn't this kind of request really an insult to me?
Ivy wanted to say that, but when he noticed that Iso's eyes were particularly serious when he made this request, he realized... This guy really thought so! Is his understanding of me, the forest elder, just a freebie?
"No problem." Ivy took a deep breath and said to Aesop, "Forget about the Nightmare Shop. As long as we're in the Yor Forest, you can do whatever you want. Of course, the premise is that you can't take advantage of any life in the forest."
Even though she has gone too far, Ivy did not forget to make her bottom line clear.
"No problem." Aesop nodded, indicating that he agreed to Ivy's bet.
"Then how do you prove it?" Ivy folded her hands and said, "Let me make it clear in advance that bragging is not proof. You must provide solid and strong evidence."
Aesop nodded again, then fumbled in his pocket, took out a magic conch, and handed it to Ivy.
Ivy took it and was a little confused: "What is this?"
"This is a conch," Aesop said. "Haven't you seen it before?"
Ivy's expression froze, her face aching with anger. "You fu*king... I'm asking you what you're doing with a conch?! Are you cooking it?!"
"This conch is the proof," Aesop said. "Don't you feel it?"
"...What do you want me to feel?" Ivy said unhappily, "Isn't this just an ordinary conch?"
"No, it's the magic conch."
ivy:"……"
"The evidence is right in front of you. If you can't feel it, you can blow into the conch," Aesop reminded him. "But if you do that, there might be some unpleasant consequences, and you'll have to bear the consequences yourself."
Not-so-good consequences, what kind of not-so-good consequences could there be?
Ivy was very disdainful.
Now, she understood everything and knew that Aesop was a liar, just a liar with some skills.
He also insisted that he had experience dealing with mythical creatures.
Fight, why don't you fight anymore? Why don't you fight in front of me?
In the final analysis, he is still lying, and now he is playing tricks here.
It's all over if I don't expose you.
Not only do I have to blow, I have to blow hard.
Facing Aesop, Ivy was rarely aroused by the emotions of a little girl, so she looked at Aesop provocatively, and then in front of everyone, she blew hard at the magical conch.
After blowing it, he stared at the conch.
Nothing happened.
Ivy sneered: "Oh, what else do you have to say now..."
Halfway through her words, Ivy felt the temperature of the conch in her hand suddenly rise, and her palm instantly made a "hissing" burning sound.
Before she could react to what was happening, a huge flame burst out from the small conch mouth!
If it were just an ordinary flame, Ivy wouldn't have to worry about it given her strength. But this wasn't any ordinary flame; it was a cursed, black flame spreading from the Land of Despair. Ivy instinctively tried to block it with her branches, but the moment they touched the flames, they instantly ignited and consumed her, rapidly spreading upward along her body.
At this moment, Ivy felt the real danger and felt that death was beckoning to her.
Fortunately, the grandmother who was watching the fun from the side took action in time, cut off the ivy vines with her own vines, and then threw it heavily into the sky.
The flames devoured the abandoned vines, dyeing half of the sky red.
After about five or six seconds, the burnt ashes fell like rain.
Ivy was completely stunned, staring blankly at the sky, which had almost changed color. Her lips were dry. "What... is that?"
She subconsciously looked at Aesop.
This time, Aesop's face, which seemed extremely childish to her, was filled with a depth that she could not understand, and the fear brought by the unknown.
Aesop was indeed thinking deeply.
"Miss Huang said she wanted to kill me last time, and it turned out to be true." Aesop murmured, "It seems that scratching eight times a day is indeed a bit too much."
172 It doesn't matter, I will take action
After Miss Huang's wonderful performance, not only did Ivy's opinion of Aesop change greatly, but even Forest Grandmother sat up a little straighter and looked at Aesop with a look of considerable surprise.
If she was not mistaken... the power that just surged out of the conch should have come from another mythical creature.
A mythical creature whose status is not inferior to hers, and who can be crowned with the name "He" together with her.
This little guy in front of me... I'm not bragging, he is actually related to another mythical creature.
Judging from the fact that the other party immediately came to his aid when he needed help just now, this is quite a close relationship. The other party values him very much and is even willing to use this level of power to help him.
It’s really... interesting.
Grandmother Forest smiled faintly and said, "It seems you've already lost, Ivy."
Ivy pursed her lips tightly. She was no fool, and naturally knew the significance of that power. If her grandmother hadn't intervened in time to sever her branches, she would have vanished from the world like the falling ashes.
What the hell is going on with this guy?!
He actually has a connection with mythical creatures. Also, are there really mythical creatures in this world besides my grandmother?
Watching Aesop slowly step forward and pick up the conch from the ground, Ivy couldn't help but feel a deep sense of fear and dread in her heart.
Under the protection of her grandmother, Ivy has always felt that the forest is the safest and most powerful place. In fact, she is not the only one, most of the descendants of the forest have this idea.Even though they have heard that there are other mythical creatures in this world, they all think that they are just false legends. Only grandmother is the real, living legend and real myth.
At this moment, Ivy felt that the pride that had been held in her heart for a hundred years was instantly shattered. She was about to start doubting her life and dared not refute her grandmother's words.
Besides, she had already lost.
"You truly surprise me." The Forest Grandmother looked down at Aesop and said with a smile, "I've stayed in this forest for so many years, never leaving, and never seeing anyone like me. But now, you've fulfilled my wish, letting me know that I'm not alone in this world... That's wonderful. Can you tell me about her origins?"
Aesop nodded, and then told the Forest Grandmother the origin of the Phoenix.
"A phoenix that's been wandering underground for a thousand years?" After hearing Aesop's narration, the Forest Grandmother sighed. "I heard this legend a long time ago, but I thought it was fake. I never expected it to actually exist. But wandering underground for a thousand years, unable to leave forever, must be very lonely, right? I've always thought being trapped in this forest was tragic enough, but I never imagined there were people in this world with even more extreme situations than mine."
Aesop said: "Ms. Huang will no longer be lonely now."
"Oh?" asked the Forest Grandmother. "Why is that? Is it because of you?"
Aesop nodded.
"Really? That's great." Grandmother Forest smiled and looked at Ivy, who was doubting her life. "It seems that you are to Miss Huang what Ivy is to me."
Ivy was stunned for a moment, then suddenly raised her head and looked at Grandmother Forest.
Grandmother Forest smiled at Ivy and said, "Because of you, I haven't been so lonely all these years. Everyone I knew back then is gone, and the younger generations are too afraid of me. Only you have always been by my side. I am so grateful for you all these years."
"Grandma..." Hearing Forest Grandma say this to herself, Ivy felt like tears were about to fall. "Please don't say that. I, I haven't done well enough."
Before the Forest Grandmother could speak, Aesop spoke first: "Indeed, she is still not as good as me. For Miss Huang, I still have to do more."
"Oh?" The Forest Grandmother looked at Aesop and asked, "Which point?"
Aesop raised a finger and said, "The protruding point..."
Before he could finish his words, he was suppressed by Stank, Bruce and Jer behind him.
"I beg you to be a human being!"
"They're just enjoying a grandparent-grandchild scene! And you're still telling dirty jokes here!"
"We really want to go back alive!"
Under the joint suppression of the three, Aesop finally stopped discussing the exact point with the Forest Grandmother.
And Grandma Forest didn't hate Aesop's nonsense... It can't be said that it was nonsense. Grandma Forest felt that what Aesop said was quite logical, but this logic was different from that of ordinary people.She had been in the forest for so many years and had never seen anyone like Aesop, so she was also very interested in Aesop.
"Can I chat with Miss Huang?" asked the Forest Grandmother. "It's rare to meet someone like her. I really want to see what kind of person she is and what kind of life she leads."
"No problem," Aesop said, "but it might not work today."
"why?"
Aesop answered seriously, "Because she said that if I harassed her again today, she would really kill me."
The Forest Grandmother was slightly stunned, and then laughed out loud.
"You are really...interesting. I haven't met someone so interesting in a long time."
The Forest Grandmother smiled so broadly that her gigantic body began to tremble, and the leaves on the thousand-year-old vines above her head began to fall, cutting the sunlight coming in from the roof into countless spots of light.
Ivy was also staring at Forest Grandmother in a daze. As far as she could remember, she had never seen her grandmother so happy.
"Very good, I'm very satisfied with you." The Forest Grandmother laughed until tears came out. After rubbing her eyes, she looked at Aesop again, "Now, I believe that you have the ability to deal with mythical creatures. But I am not that Miss Huang. The experience you gained from Miss Huang may not be applicable here. It's not just a matter of status... For example, how are you going to solve the problem of body size?"
As she spoke, Forest Grandmother leaned forward slightly, and everyone in the hall immediately felt the ground beneath their feet shaking.
"What you see of me now is only about a quarter of my original form," said the Forest Grandmother with a smile. "The vast majority of my body is buried deep underground, untouched for millennia."
The words of the Forest Grandmother deeply shocked the men present.
Because the Forest Grandmother in front of them was already huge, even bigger than the largest creature they had ever seen before - the Dragon Lord Murreg.
But now, the Forest Grandmother told them that what they could see was only a quarter of the Forest Grandmother's complete form...
My goodness, how big is she when she is whole?
Several people felt terrified just thinking about it.
By this time, Ivy had recovered and realized that thinking of strange things now would not only be useless, but would also delay the fulfillment of her grandmother's last wish.
What Aesop had shown her had already convinced her of the truth, so her tone of voice softened considerably. "Grandmother now is at her smallest. The grandmother of the past, before her branches and vines withered, was the true... ancestor."
The few of them didn't say anything, but thought about it in their hearts, as if they understood the meaning of the four words "Forest Ancestor".
"Let's not talk about the past." Grandmother Forest smiled at the people in front of her. "Let's just say that my body is healed now. My body can't get any smaller. This should be the body I'll be buried in. It's a bit embarrassing to say that for so many years, I've always wanted to find a partner and experience the happiness I've never felt... but it's a pity."
The Forest Grandmother sighed.
"No one's size is right. They're all too small. Too small."
After that, she looked at the quartet and smiled again.
"So, who among you can match it?"
Everyone fell silent.
Logically speaking, no man would be willing to admit that he is not strong enough.
But in front of the Forest Grandmother, no one dared to speak out...
"It doesn't matter." Aesop said, "I will take action."
The words are powerful!
You come to form the crotch
"Aesop, have you figured out how to proceed?"
After leaving the Forest Mother's Hall, several people immediately asked Aesop if he had any ideas.
But unexpectedly, Aesop shook his head and said, "Not yet."
Stank was slightly stunned. "Not yet? Then why did you say that so forcefully just now?"
Aesop replied: "Because it is more handsome."
Several people:"……"
"Hey, hey, hey, don't do anything rash." Bruce said worriedly, "The person you made a direct promise to this time is Forest Grandmother. You've already seen how powerful Forest Grandmother is. If you piss her off and then fail to keep your promise, the consequences may be very bad."
Jer said, "It shouldn't be a problem. Miss Huang will protect you, right?"
