Before Xu Le used the tree world to descend.

In the distant lighthouse, Jin Mingzhu, who was watching the Soul Tree and the strange killings around him, looked solemn.

The Red Moon Temple Warlock in front of her was really too powerful.

"Puppet Master Duo En... She was the one who killed Xu Le in legend..."

Puppet master Dawn, a master with a gentle voice but a very eccentric personality, was secretly kept in the lighthouse by the Red Moon Temple.

This matter was not made public, only Zhou Bi and Jin Mingzhu, the leaders of the lighthouse, knew about it.

After all, he killed Xu Le. If this matter was made public, Zion, Beacon, and the people on both sides would explode.

The murderer of Xu Le in the Red Moon Temple actually appeared in the lighthouse openly.

As Zion's long-term strategic partner, Lighthouse turned a blind eye to the murderer and indulged him at will, which is intolerable.

People don't have any upper-level thinking, and they don't need to.

As long as most people are satisfied with eating and drinking, they will have some strange thoughts.

Jin Mingzhu knew it, and so did Zhou Bi, so they didn't mention it.

"Is that Xu Le really dead..."

Jin Mingzhu locked her eyes on Duo En.

There seemed to be threads in her hands that couldn't be seen with the naked eye, and she was controlling the surrounding trees.

These soul branches that were originally controlled by Xu Le have become Duo En's weapons in this black tide, and can be controlled by her at will.

call!

Dawn jumped and returned to Jin Mingzhu's side.

The lighthouse now possesses the Soul Tree, and the rhythm of the Kuroshio's strange attacks is not strong. Instead, it has become the safest place among the four major city-states.

Like a tidal wave of weird things hitting the lighthouse, they were all blocked by these trees of souls.

After they are killed by branches, they will become nourishment for the tree of souls and become part of the tree.

The soul was also sucked into the torch at the top of the tree.

In this situation of cyclic absorption, the strange black tide cannot break through the incoming lighthouse defense.

The current situation made both Jin Mingzhu and Zhou Bi deeply gratified.

But it is a pity that Xu Le, the creator of Tree of Souls, is no longer here.

"I don't think that guy will die so easily. His ability is too weird. Is it possible that he faked his death?"

"What are you thinking about?" Dawn beside him suddenly asked.

Jin Mingzhu, who was thinking, was shocked. This puppet rarely communicated with her.

She has always been mysterious, but I didn't expect that she would take the initiative to strike up a conversation at this time.

"Um, I'm thinking about how to make the lighthouse better. People can live and work in peace and contentment. At least they won't worry about their own safety, darkness, energy, food, etc. because of the black tide."

"I feel your pain. In fact, it is very simple to solve all this. Really join the Red Moon Temple.

The supreme power of the temple will solve everything for you."

"Well... this doesn't sound like a very good proposal. The lighthouse will have its own path." Jin Mingzhu directly refused. Keeping the lighthouse was their bottom line.

Even if the lighthouse is being held hostage, this bottom line cannot be lost, otherwise, they would rather die.

…

"Hmph, after possessing the Soul Tree, your lighthouse has entered a subtle state.

This tree will actively protect the city. Although I don't know whether the thing it protects is the city, at least the people living in the city are safe for now.

With such artifacts, you lighthouse people no longer need to consider too many safety issues.

Do you understand the significance of this?"

Dawn's words are a bit strange. Isn't it enough to be safe? What's the point?

Jin Mingzhu was not very good at guessing other people's thoughts, so it was more appropriate to leave this kind of negotiation to Zhou Bi.

But it's a pity that Zhou Bi is too weak to come out in the dark tide environment, so she was asked to accompany Duo En.

"Meaning? The lighthouse is safe?"

"What a shallow woman. No wonder you have no strength but let that incompetent man serve as the leader of the lighthouse."

"He is my lover." Jin Mingzhu's face suddenly darkened.

She can beat Zhou Bi, she can scold and ravage him.

But others can't.

This is also one of her personal bottom lines.

"Well, it's a boring emotional trick, but you can't maintain this carefree state for long. Soon, the lighthouse will usher in new changes, so be prepared."

"New? What do you mean?"

Jin Mingzhu stared at Duo En, with a puzzled look on his face.

"A city with automatic defense functions but no matching power. Do you think you can really control this place?

This time's black tide is a test of the Soul Tree's defensive capabilities.

When the upper levels of the Red Moon Temple receive the report on the effects of this Soul Tree, you so-called lighthouse upper levels will be dealt with one by one.

The Red Moon Temple will not allow such an artifact to be exposed."

Duo En's words were very clear, and Jin Mingzhu understood the meaning no matter how slow his reaction was.

"What kind of treatment will you talk about?"

"How we deal with you, the senior leaders of the lighthouse, depends on your level of cooperation.

Whether you want to surrender or fight with reason, the choice is yours.

But although the choice is yours, the outcome is different.

You can only bear the final result yourself."

Dawn said, his huge body raised his head slightly, condescendingly.

Jin Mingzhu didn't know that the body of Dawn in front of her was actually just a puppet, but she didn't like the condescending look in her eyes.

"I remember Lord Dorn's words, but I can't make the decision on this matter. I will discuss it in detail with Zhou Bi after I go back."

"That Zhou Bi did have some tricks, but what he didn't protect was his strength.

In this era, if you have no power, your ability will become poison and shackles.

Just like Li Wen in Zion, if the Red Moon Temple really wants to deal with him, it can do so at any time.

It’s not dealt with just because there’s no need to deal with it yet.”

The conversation with Dawn had changed from a casual chat to a blatant threat.

Dawn's threat was not concealed at all.

Jin Mingzhu was very uncomfortable, but she couldn't do anything to Duo En, so she could only breathe and adjust her mentality as much as possible.

…

"I know that the entire world is under the control of the Red Moon Temple. You are so powerful...

It’s quite funny that it’s so powerful but doesn’t end the apocalypse and darkness.”

"There is no point in being sarcastic, and the rules of this world are not as simple as you weaklings think.

Consider my words carefully, but you still have plenty of time. You can make a decision before the next black tide comes."

"Hmph..." Jin Mingzhu snorted coldly, but did not refute again.

She turned to look at the tree of souls in the distance, and her expression suddenly changed.

"Uh? Did you do that?"

Dawn was about to object, but her expression also changed.

At the far end of their field of vision, countless branches began to converge towards one location.

The branches of this tree of souls are intertwined and tangled with each other, and eventually rolled into a thick and towering giant vine that connects heaven and earth.

Although they were far away, the shock of the scene in front of them was still hard to deal with.

"Tree of Souls...what happened?"

"How could I possibly know this kind of thing? I am a warrior."

Neither Dawn nor Jin Mingzhu knew what was happening, but the changes in the tree of souls at the far end continued.

The surrounding space began to distort, but this spatial fluctuation seemed not to be in the air, but underground.

The towering giant vine branches suddenly began to shrink downwards and penetrated into the ground at an extremely fast speed.
