The unconscious monster, with the idea of ​​devouring, kept chasing after the orc for a whole half day until there was no more orc standing in front of it, and then it stopped.

The monster standing at the mouth of the valley in the freezing cold wind became an indelible terrifying experience in the minds of many orcs.

In this battle, the orc army suffered heavy losses. Not only did many soldiers die, but even Her Majesty the Queen's arm was broken here. In the short term, it is impossible for the orcs to provoke humans again.

"The dust has settled."

Tong Yao, who had been watching the war, locked her eyes on the monster walking aimlessly in the wasteland.

Not long ago, she was still thinking about how to create the third mythical life, but now everything has an answer.

Having lost his mind, his purpose of wandering is to devour more lives and intercept the superior genes in these lives, so as to turn himself into a perfect ultimate creature. Such a unique mythical life can be ranked alongside Kranos and Morphis!

Of course, this is subject to certain conditions.

Tong Yao appeared next to the crazy Devourer. After noticing her, the Devourer, who was very irritable just now, seemed to have turned over a new leaf and became extremely docile.

This reminded her of the scene of meeting Nanxing in Tanon that evening.

In the sunset, the southern star is covered by the blood-red setting sun.

And now, the light of dawn has risen, and under the same sky, Nanxing, who has turned into a monster, still maintains the same movements.

Hatred deprived Nanxing of his sanity, but did not deprive him of the love in his heart.

“Open your heart!”

The nursery rhyme injected some of the power granted by the power of life into the body of the Devourer.

When the Devourer completely digests this power, the twisted blood in its body will no longer be the fuse of its death. It will truly become a new mythical life, and that day is not far away.

Before this, the human who heard the noise and secretly came to check the situation lied after reporting back.

He said that the monster did not grow out of Nanxing's body, but after eating Nanxing, it was controlled by Nanxing's powerful will and rushed into the orc army.

As they were walking eastward, Bai suddenly stopped. As if he had a premonition of something, he reached out to tidy up Alsophila's hair.

"Can you take care of yourself if I'm not here?"

The usually stupid Alsophila seemed to have a premonition of something at this time, and tears as big as beans flowed out of its eyes.

She shook her head, then nodded, just like she had done many times in the past, she didn't want to worry Bai.

31 Walking with God, the only immortal species in the world

Bai's life is almost coming to an end.

He still looks young, but his body is already decayed, just like the aura of decay that surrounds him. He probably only has a month left at most.

Although all this was within his expectations, when this moment really arrived, he felt a strong reluctance.

If time was a little longer, he would be able to send the tree also to a safer place and teach it more life skills, so that when he left, he would have less worries.

However, this way of thinking doesn’t seem quite right.

After teaching Alsophila how to grill fish, he would start to worry about what to do if the fish turns out badly. After it turns out good, he would start to worry about what to do if Alsophila can't catch any fish.

No matter how much time he is left, his worries will not diminish.

“That’s what being a parent is.”

In the middle of the night, Bai Yang was lying on a haystack by the roadside.

He thought the tree also fell asleep due to fatigue from traveling during the day, so he decided to relax and appreciate the clear night sky.

Long ago, when he still lived outside the original settlement, he often counted the stars because he was bored, but since the night of the battle of the behemoths, he no longer had the time or mood to do so.

Now that he has the rare opportunity to count the stars again, he feels joy from the bottom of his heart.

“It’s really long.”

It has been so long that the child who was only a few years old has now grown into a sixteen-year-old girl, and it has been so long that more than fifty years have passed in this world.

But even after so much time, when he looked at the sky again, he could still find those familiar stars.

Are these stars gods? Otherwise, why are they so eternal?

You know, even mountains and rivers will change with time, not to mention the short life.

For the first time in the world, someone speculated about the true appearance of the stars.

rustle--

At this moment, a slight sound suddenly came from next to the haystack.

Bai turned his head and saw Alsophila hiding in the dark, peeking at him, looking around, as if he thought he had not been discovered.

"What's wrong, are you having a nightmare?"

He stood up quickly.

Being arrested on the spot, Alsophila looked somewhat embarrassed. She gestured to show that she was fine.

Bai said: "If you have nothing else to do, take a good rest. We still have to continue our journey tomorrow."

Alsophila shook his head.

Seeing that she was reluctant to leave, Bai had no choice but to take her to watch the stars.

There was no dark cloud in the sky that night, and every star was trying its best to show its brilliance.

Bai put his hands behind his head and expressed his feelings.

"Alternaria, the stars are the supreme gods. They are always watching us from the sky. If we are separated and cannot meet for a while, you can tell the stars what you want to say to me in your heart, and the stars will convey your words to me."

"It doesn't matter if you can't say it. When you look up at the stars, I must be looking up at the stars too. We are always under the same sky, and the stars are the bond that connects us."

"Alternaria, you..."

Bai turned his head again and found that Alsophila had closed its eyes at some point, breathing steadily, as if it had fallen asleep.

I don’t know if she heard what I just said.

That’s it, that’s it.

Bai continued to look at the stars. He thought about many things, including where people go after they die, his work in finding herbs, his ideal of finding an elixir of life, his parents, and those who occasionally came to chat with him.

Finally, he thought of the Arisaema confusa and the Alsophila spinulosa again.

He has been busy all his life, but it seems that he has not done anything well and has not produced any results. It is a bit embarrassing to think about it.

On the second to last day of his life, Bai called Alsophila to stay in a simple house by the sea.

"Alternaria, this sword is a holy sword that takes lives. It was once our hope. Without it, we couldn't resist the orcs, but more often it is an ominous sword. I have thought about finding a new owner for it, but it is too difficult. I can see death, but I can't see through people's hearts. Once this sword falls into the hands of someone with bad intentions, it will surely cause endless disasters. It is better not to find a new owner for it. After a while, help me find a place where others will find it hard to throw it away."

He placed the Horn of Murphys in Alsophila's hand with great care.

He suddenly felt fortunate that he had escaped with Alsophila. Otherwise, once he died, there would surely be people with ill intentions coming to fight for the sword. When that happened, how would Alsophila be able to keep the sword?

She is too naive and too weak.

On the last day of his life, feeling the increasingly foul smell of death, Bai, who originally thought he had let it go, suddenly felt endless fear.

He doesn't want to die yet, he can't die yet, this world is too dangerous, and he still has many things to teach Alsophila. Even if he teaches it all, can Alsophila really do it alone without him protecting it?

Bai, lying on the ground, struggled to get up.

Although there is only a little time left, he can still try. What if he finds the elixir of immortality?

He staggered up, then staggered and fell down. When he tried to stand up again, his hand was suddenly held.

The one that appeared next to it was naturally Alsophila spinulosa, but the difference from before was that this time there was no confusion or weakness in Alsophila's eyes, only a reassuring strength.

At this moment, Bai suddenly felt that his body was not so tense anymore.

People always have to leave. He is not immortal and he cannot take care of the tree also for a lifetime.

Alsophila is silly, but she is not always silly. At least, she learned to lie to reassure him a long time ago.

God.

If the stars in the sky are really gods, please help me keep an eye on the Alsophila spinulosa!

Under the brilliant starlight, Bai gradually closed his eyes and there was no sound.

At this moment, the silent crying turned into a vibrating text frame that shook Tong Yao's entire vision.

【Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah--】

Even the mute girl has strong emotional outbursts, but most of the time, others can't see them.

But her god is different.

When she saw Alsophila spinulosa, she had a premonition that Bai was going to leave her.

She saw that Alsophila's heart was filled with fear and anxiety.

She saw that when Bai was looking at the stars and expressing his feelings, Alsophila deliberately pretended to sleep.

She saw Alsophila trying its best to pretend that it knew nothing in order not to make Bai worry.

She saw Alsophila hiding in a place where Bai couldn't see her, practicing over and over again what Bai had taught her.

When the end of death finally came, Alsophila cried silently all night. At dawn, she dug a hole on the beach with pointed stones and buried Bai in it. She then spent half a day dragging a large flat stone and placed it in front of the grave.

After doing all this, she was exhausted, but she still followed Bai's example and went to catch fish in the nearby ditch.

In this way, she was busy until almost midnight, when she finally skewered the fish and placed it on the fire.

By the time she ate the grilled fish, her stomach had been rumbling for a long time.

[My dad lied to me. The fish I grilled is not as delicious as his.]

[I roasted two more sticks. I almost forgot that my dad is gone. I'll eat them all by myself.]

[My dad said I am the daughter of God, but is there really a God in this world? If there is, can God come to see me? It is so scary to live alone.]

After tossing and turning until the second half of the night, Alsophila finally fell asleep, hugging the Horn of Murphys.

Although her father asked her to throw away the sword, she didn't want to do so. It was the last thing her father left her. If she threw it away too, wouldn't there be nothing left?

She decided to finish what her father had not done and find a suitable owner for the sword, an owner who could lead mankind to stability like her father.

Although her father said it was difficult, she was still young and she could take her time looking for it. It would not be too late to throw the sword away when she really couldn't find it.

There are always more solutions than problems, her father always said this, and she remembered it very clearly.

When Alsophila fell asleep completely, Tong Yao appeared in the simple little house. Looking at the nervous Alsophila, she was speechless for a moment.

Isn't this kid afraid of being accidentally pricked by the Horn of Murphys while falling asleep?

She was not sure whether the Horn of Murphys could kill the immortal species of Alsophila in one go, but this kind of thing was always dangerous, and no one would be willing to try it.

What if I die?

Tong Yao used her magical power to gently wrap the Horn of Murphys around, so that the Horn of Murphys would not pierce the tree also when it rolled around.

She also wanted to see whether the incomplete power of death and the flawed immortality seeds could create sparks and give birth to the complete power of death when they were combined.

If this were accomplished, the threat of psionic energy to civilization would be much less. At least, it would no longer turn life into a chaotic state that was neither life nor undead, like what happened to the Winged Man after his death.

Moreover, after mastering the power of death, perhaps she will be able to completely free herself from death in this world and become an eternal life.

Therefore, we cannot let the tree also die inexplicably.

The moment the divine power came out, some of the slightly cool simple houses became warm.

In his sleep, Alsophila felt all of this.

She turned 90 degrees in the direction of Tong Yao, then opened her arms and hugged Tong Yao's legs while she was thinking about something.

"Mother."

It was not until an indistinct sound came out of Alsophila's mouth that Tong Yao came out of her thoughts and calmly looked at Alsophila who had his face pressed against her legs.

Alsophila's breathing was steady, with a smile on his face.

This was the first time she smiled all day, even though it was in a dream.

As the only immortal species in the world, she will have plenty of time and opportunities to laugh in the future, but this smile was the most unique.

Tong Yao originally didn't intend to do anything extra, but now she stretched out her right hand.

Suddenly, a bird appeared in her palm. She had caught this bird from somewhere else. It was a bird that was very afraid of loneliness and liked to fly around sticking to other lives.

With it accompanying the tree also, this empty beach will have more different sounds.
