Chapter 3060 On the Throne
"My only question now is, what exactly do you want to do?"
Xia De's tone was already quite impolite, but the old man under the tree still ignored him:
"You must be wondering, the Bennet family cultivates paradox bugs and accumulates time curses for me, so why do I distribute tree holes to those families who have lived here for a long time?"
He pointed to the seat behind him:
"This has something to do with me. Only beings that are strong enough can become the guardians of the earth, wind, water and fire here. Ordinary time travel cannot create or attract suitable targets. So I gave people tree holes, and they attracted demons and cultivated dragon beasts for me. The Bennet family has been responsible for the two projects of 'Paradox Worm' and 'Cursed Tree' for generations to ensure that if there are no suitable four targets, they can always take over."
"Thomas Bennett represents water this time."
Although Xia De knew that this was not the question he was asking, he couldn't help but correct it.
"Yeah."
The old professor immediately smiled and nodded to the group of people standing at the edge of the open space, then said with some regret:
"Originally, the position of 'water' was reserved for that dead disciple Bronte. Aren't death and water very similar? You must have experienced this deeply. What a pity. If the story here could be delayed for three or four years, I could have completely upgraded Bronte and made him a real monster in the spiral of life and death. He is quite proficient in using the tree hole, and he also has this potential.
It's a pity that in just one year, you pushed the epic of "The Whispering Poems" from the first section to the eighth chapter. This time it was really fast~ So after you sent Bronte away and took away the eyeball, I had to let Thomas take over, but now it seems that he is doing a good job, isn't he? "
He sighed, looking really sorry that his arrangement had not turned out perfectly:
"Earth, wind, water, fire, earth, wind, water, fire. For ten thousand years, I have been constantly replacing the monsters that help me guard the secret. I didn't expect that at the end, one would be missing. It's like an opera that has been rehearsed countless times, and only when it comes to the stage does an omission that has never appeared before appear. But it doesn't matter. At least the purpose has been achieved. You are now in front of me."
"Since they were responsible for protecting your secrets, why did you sit back and watch them be defeated by us?"
Xia De then followed up on his question and asked. When the old professor saw him asking this, he immediately smiled:
"Of course it's for the Battle of the Chosen. If you can't find me, how can I complete the Ritual of the Chosen? The same goes for me helping you find those secrets."
Shade was almost certain that he was lying. To an outsider, Yuk Wood had absolutely no intention of becoming the chosen one.
"Oh, speaking of which, I haven't introduced the Ceremony of the Chosen One of Time yet, right?"
The old professor suddenly said:
"The time requirement is a full-moon night, and the location can be right here. Gather the branches, leaves, and roots of the World Tree, and then turn the power of the ancient tree into seeds. Time will allow them to take root and sprout. Let me think, you are still missing the roots, right?"
He moved his fingers, and a rich green light appeared directly in front of Xia De. Everyone in the team subconsciously wanted to defend, but only a black root as thick as a wrist fell from the light.
Shade frowned and stretched out his hand to take it, but he didn't expect the tree root to bypass his hand and fly directly to Emilia. The elf subconsciously wanted to dodge, but the four branches floating beside her and the green leaves in her pocket glowed at the same time.
The leaves, branches and roots turned into light and merged together, then suddenly rushed into the back of the elf's right hand.
The green leaf pattern suddenly glowed, and then several emerald green lines appeared under the leaf pattern, and then densely packed over Emilia's wrist and rushed to her arm.
When Miss Orlanod rolled up Emilia's sleeves, the elf's entire right arm was already covered with green lines. [Elf Kingship] and [Ocarina of Time] seemed to have sensed the power of the World Tree and also emitted a faint light at this moment.
The thirteen emerald life rings behind Emilia emerged without her control, and her power grew stronger with every breath she took. Although the thirteen rings were a temporary power granted by the crown and the ancient elven king, her true self did become stronger with the birth of the "seed".
"Very good, now the seeds have appeared. Now the girl from the Moon Creek Clan only needs to complete two tasks: 'defeat me' and 'make the seeds germinate', and she will be the chosen one of time."
Professor Yuk Wood said with satisfaction, and Shade looked at him sullenly:
“Back to my original question – what exactly do you want to do?”
The old man corrected him:
"I have helped you so many times, and even in 1821 I was forced to answer so many questions that had nothing to do with what is happening here. If you still have some basic manners and know how to respect the elderly, you should be more polite when speaking to me, and at least use honorifics, right?"
"Well, then, what exactly do you want to do? You prepared a series of stories in Vesta City, and tonight you launched a swarm of insects and tree people to attack the city. You let the 'Watchmaker' lead us into the ancient elf ruins, and finally brought us here when the time and space order of this forest is on the verge of complete collapse. What exactly do you want to do?"
So Shade really changed his words and said, Professor Yuk Wood sighed deeply, put his hands behind his back and looked up at the lush green tree above his head. The slightly glowing treetops also reflected his face green, the shadows of the trees swayed, and the old man was filled with emotion:
“Hundreds of thousands of years have passed in a hurry. The collapse of the World Tree, the appearance of the forest, the War of the Ancients, and the countless cycles of spring, summer, autumn and winter all seem to have happened just yesterday.
I have stayed here for so long that I can even clearly tell the story of the birth of every stone in this forest, the weather when the ancestors of every nest of ants arrived, and the rustling whispers of every tree.
I am a little tired of this place. If you defeat me, Emilia Sienord will inherit the power of the tree father and control time; but if I win, I can be completely free and get rid of the power that has sealed me since the Second Age. Yes, everything tonight is for this, to break free from the seal and gain freedom. "
Regardless of what the people behind him thought, Xia De shook his head with certainty:
"It's still a lie. If you wanted to leave, you could have left before any of us showed up here."
Professor Yuk Wood withdrew his gaze from the tree canopy and looked at Shade again. His eyes glowed at this moment, and the ancient and lush green color was almost the same as the glowing giant tree at this moment, which was a deeper color than Emilia's emerald green eyes.
"Young man, why do you want to expose me? Look, we have always been in sync, haven't we? I provided you with guidance and help, and you ran all the way in the direction I pointed out. Now that we have come to the end, what's wrong with cooperating with me a little more?"
He smiled and opened his arms, and his whole body radiated emerald green light. Then the light spots that made up his body flew together towards the giant tree behind the five chairs.
"What the hell do you want to do?"
The stranger who never swore finally said something quite uncivilized at this moment. Bella, Vanessa and Miss Orlanod were all very surprised. This meant that Shad was really very angry.
The old man who turned into light left only the last words under the tree:
"It's a bit too harsh to let that elf defeat me alone, so you two must fight together in the final battle of time. If you defeat me, I will acknowledge her identity. If you defeat me, you will know the ultimate secret of this forest. I will not show mercy, this is the final test. If you lose, I will bury you here and let time bear witness to everything."
As soon as he finished speaking, Professor Yuk Wood completely turned into light and merged into the giant tree. Then not only the tree crown, but also the trunk of the giant tree and the roots buried deep in the ground began to glow.
The giant tree rose upward again, as if to connect the sky and the earth; the area of the crown continued to grow until the edge of the crown could no longer be seen when standing in the open space, as if it would cover the entire Vista Woods; the ground beneath the feet appeared as strips of light because of the glow of the tree roots, and the green light illuminated everyone's nervous faces.
When the emerald green light that symbolized the tree and time finally illuminated everything in the open space, dark cracks in time opened up in front of four huge chairs with glowing backs.
From those four cracks—
Flames gushed out in front of the fiery red rune, and the fire demon Dizast tore open a gap with his claws and came to the present from the past;
In front of the azure rune, the pitch-black dragon beast squeezed out of the crack amidst the manic dragon roar;
A buzzing sound that everyone was familiar with came from the khaki runes, and then a pitch-black insect flapped its wings and flew out, peeling off its shell and transforming into a black "insect man" with an insect head;
As for the huge chair with sea-blue rune strings in front, Thomas Bennett, who was five meters tall and had limbs stretched several times longer, looked like he was in a state of complete madness, and it seemed as if he was forcibly pulled back to the present by an invisible force.
The roots of the giant tree emerged from the soil and pierced into the backs of the four monsters. Then they were controlled to sit on four thrones, as if they were perfectly integrated with their respective seats.
Then, the lights of the four elements of earth, wind, water and fire, along with the huge spirit and surging elements, gathered towards the largest throne in the center. When the four-color spiritual light merged with the emerald green light projected from the giant tree, in the pure white light, an old figure that was enough to match the throne truly appeared.
