The dirt was full of the tree-man girl's footprints when she came out, but these footprints disappeared when they reached the edge of the forest. It seemed that the tree-man girl was shaped here.

He raised his head again, and in front of him was the rotten forest full of thick fog. Let’s not talk about the smell emanating from this forest, let’s just talk about the thick fog and the denseness of this forest. Airlo is really

I suspect that I will immediately lose my way as soon as I step in. Then I will really die in this forest.

"Um……"

When he was hesitating, Airl turned his head and happened to see the tree man girl behind him who was always facing him.

Seeing this face that was exactly like his own, Airl suddenly had an idea! He turned around, aligned his eyes with the face of the tree man girl, walked backwards, and walked towards the forest.

As soon as he stepped into the forest, the smell of rot and fermentation in the air became even stronger. Airl tried his best to control his breathing and carefully stepped back step by step.

He didn't dare to take his eyes away from the face of the tree-man girl. As long as there was a slight deviation in his steps, the tree-man girl's face and her body would be slightly deviated. This deviation also made the tree-man girl's face slightly different.

Airl quickly adjusted his position so that his face continued to be vertical to his body and directly in front of his eyes.

Relying on the straight line formed by these two points, Arrow continued to move forward in the forest with difficulty.

It is really not easy to make sure that every step you take is in a straight line, but to make sure that there is really something in the direction you are going, it is even more of an absurd bet.

But, since this tree-man girl was born in this direction, it more or less means that there must be something in this place, right? So now, Airl can only hope in this direction.

The air in the forest seems to be getting more and more humid.

Every time I take a backward step, I feel like I am sinking deeply.

He doesn't know how long he has been walking backwards step by step, and Ai Luo doesn't even know how long it will take for him to reach the end of his actions...

The only thing that was certain was the eyes of the tree-man girl in front of her that were exactly the same as mine.

Well...fortunately, no one has ever said that Airl's eyes are annoying before. In fact, he kind of hates such eyes now.

However, I don’t know if it was luck or not. Ai Luo kept walking backwards for a long time without hitting any trees behind him?

This kind of "strangeness" also made him silently have some expectations in his heart. He only hoped that if he just took two steps back, he could see a dilapidated house, and then see some old man with a weird temper in the dilapidated house.

Maybe this old man can also provide himself with some magic power or combat power?

Isn't this how it is shown in novels? As long as you survive a disaster, there must be some strange grandfather who comes out to provide you with all kinds of powerful powers?

Haha, that must be the case!

While thinking about it, Airl backed up even more vigorously.

But in fact, he also knew that he was wishful thinking, but thinking randomly like this could at least make him less nervous. But that was when he stared at his face in front of him and backed away for almost an hour.

…

With a snap, his heel finally hit something.

His heart tightened slightly and he quickly turned his head!

"…………Nothing at all?"

To Aero's surprise, there was indeed nothing in front of him.

There is no small dilapidated house, no strange old man, and nothing waiting for his power.

What he hit with his heel was just a tree root protruding from the ground.

With a little disappointment, Airl could only turn his head again, wanting to look at the face of the tree man girl and continue to walk back in a straight line. But just when he turned his head, he suddenly found the tree in front of him.

The human girl unexpectedly began to...collapse quickly?

After these limbs made of branches rotted quickly, they fell to the ground and were mixed with the same rotten leaves and branches on the ground. They soon became indistinguishable from each other. That was when Airo was surprised by the changes before his eyes.

At that moment, he heard another terrible sound coming from behind him!

Turning around, I saw that the root of the tree that I had just kicked with my heel was now gradually closing up! No, it was not just this root that started to move, but all the trees, all the grass, and all the vines around it!

Everything that could be born in this rotten forest began to squirm quickly at this moment!

Those seemingly normal trees began to recede gradually, the ground rolled, and a large amount of mud surged up from the black earth, sweeping in with the smell of dampness and decayed plants, and rushed directly into Airo's nose.

.

However, the current situation simply does not allow Arrow to cover his nose and run away, because after all the healthy-looking trees have receded, one tree looks like it is about to die, like a ghost claw, and it takes almost ten people.

The giant tree that could only be hugged rolled out of the dark, smelly, and wet muddy ground. After several moves, it completely arrived in front of Airl and stood here.

Seeing this scene in Ai Luo's eyes, the president was speechless.

He raised his head and looked at this tall, weird, twisted giant tree that exuded a strange smell, and took a step back involuntarily.

(Hmm? Human being? It’s really strange, why are you still alive? Shouldn’t you be my nourishment?)

A voice suddenly broke into Ai Luo's mind, and his tone was filled with a sense of matter-of-factness, as if he didn't care about Ai Luo's life or death at all.

Ai Luo was stunned for a moment, raised his head and looked at the giant tree, swallowed a little and said: "Is it you... talking to me?"

(I wouldn't really want to talk to you if I could, human.)

The giant tree, rotting like ghost claws, moved slightly, and that faint voice echoed in Ai Luo's mind again.

(But since you are alive, I can only ask you to die quickly in a way that you can understand. Becoming my nourishment will be your best choice, child. But there is a question here, do you humans want to die?

It’s quite difficult, and I don’t want to spend so much effort to kill you... So, can you think of a quick death without me having to do it? I’d be happy to do that.)

So...are all plants inhumane? The same goes for the flower fairies, and the same goes for this ghost claw tree!

Facing such an unknown existence, Ai Luo smiled slightly, spread his hands and said: "Well...Old sir, could you please tell me your name? In this case, I will know it better. I am dead."

Whose nourishment will I become in the future?”

The Ghost Claw Tree trembled slightly, and the voice that broke into Airo's mind was a little lazy and a little helpless.

(My name? Oh...my name...my name...what is my name? Human, do you know what my name is?)

Ai Luo is very sure that this dryad is probably mentally ill!

(Ah...I remembered. I should have no name. Since a long time ago, you humans have been calling me the Tree of the World, the Tree of Life, the Tree of the Dead Sea, the Spirit of Nature and other random names. But

I don’t know what my name is. It’s just a name given to me by you humans. In addition to the names you humans give me, other races have also given me several names. In total, there seem to be thousands of them. I can’t even remember my name.

What is the name?)

Ai Luo covered his racing heart, gritted his teeth and said with a smile: "Then...which title do you like best?)

(My favorite? Well... By the way, a human once called me Devil's Hand. I think this name is quite interesting, so you can call me this.)

Where is this going?

Arrow now only hates that he is a human being! He is a human being who cannot understand plants at all! There is definitely something wrong with the brain circuits of plants! It is simply impossible to have a chat based on basic human values ​​​​with these plants! It is completely impossible!

It’s wishful thinking!

"Then...Mr. Demon Hand?"

Ai Luo calmed down his emotions a little and smiled——

"If... I won't commit suicide, then will you kill me?"

(Oh, kill you? Oh, yes, of course. I will do that. Since a life is unwilling to judge itself, then of course I need to kill you. Well... let's do it.)

As the voice in his head came, the ground in front of Arrow began to deform again. Soon, a huge tree root base emerged from the muddy black swamp ground. And a handful was covered with moss.

, the sword, whose former appearance was completely unrecognizable, was firmly inserted into the tree root base. Several vines spread out from the base and tightly wrapped the sword several times.

, it looks... almost like the sword is being imprisoned.

Arrow put his hands behind his back and looked at the "Sword of Imprisonment" with interest. While he was observing, the voice in his mind rang again.

(This is for you. Please pull it out and wipe your neck yourself. Although a long time has passed, it should still be enough to cut off your human neck. If you are really inconvenient, you can use your

Use your neck to rub it on the edge of this thing.)
