Chapter 786: Ancient Spirit

Following behind the woman named Sophia, Dean quietly took out the 'Thread of Destiny'.

The faint and lifeless thread of fate disappeared!

It disappeared without knowing it!

Dean frowned slightly, carefully inspecting the changes in himself with his perception.

But in the end, nothing.

"Is this the power of the 'Old Spirit'?"

Dean thought, and looked at the woman in front of him.

It is obviously not easy to be able to deal with Mobius fanatics.

Not only has his strength reached the silver high level, but he also has the help of the so-called 'ancient spirit' on his body.

Immediately, Dean became quite curious about the 'power' the opponent was in.

Of course, it's more about the so-called 'ancient spirit'!

"Sophia, what is 'Old Spirit'?"

Taking steps, Dean asked very directly.

Although he had only been in contact with her for a while, Dean was quite sure about the character of the woman in front of him. It was far less practical and effective to have a direct conversation than a roundabout conversation.

"'Ancient Spirit' is our patron saint, helping us fight against evil gods and those evil. gods. believers!"

Sophia said without stopping.

And such an answer, of course, is not much different between saying and not saying.

However, after Dean just frowned, he didn't ask any more questions.

Although he can't understand what the 'ancient spirit' is now, after entering the 'force' where the other party is, Dean believes that the other party will let him see it.

After all, it's not just about sincerity.

It also has a considerable 'warning' meaning.

A qualified leader naturally knows what to do.

Not far away.

Not close either.

At Dean's speed, it will take at least twenty minutes to do it with all his strength.

And following Sophia, this time took more than half an hour.

This time, according to the recovery of Tianshang and Liuhuo. Should be almost healed.

Still, Dean wasn't worried that the two of them would be worried if he didn't return on time.

After all, he left quite a secret code on that battlefield, and Tianshang or Liuhuo only needed to investigate to understand what happened.

Therefore, Dean looked at the scene in front of him without distraction——

Withered tree!

There is no difference from the surrounding bushes. The only difference is that the bushes here are denser, which not only violates the law of natural growth: one tree after another, but also the kind that is layered on top of each other, leaving no room for each tree to grow .

Transplanted!

or. More precisely, dead trees were dug up and placed here.

After Dean glanced around, he guessed with certainty.

"Wait a moment!"

Sophia gave Dean a stop sign.

Then, he took out a black crow feather from inside the cloak.

A burst of low and continuous spells, different from the spells that Dean knew, were uttered from the opponent's mouth.

And when the last word of the mantra is said...

In front of the dense, layer upon layer of dead wood bushes, a trail has opened up.

Huh!

Dean was taken aback, looking at the dead tree in front of him in surprise.

Look at the appearance. These trees should be dead.

However, at that moment, all these trees came alive!

That breath of life cannot be hidden!

"Don't be blinded by the eyes at any time!"

Sophia said with a little satisfaction. Then, motioning for Dean to follow, he quickly walked into the path.

Dean followed, then looked back.

The trail that had just been opened was closing slowly without any sound. There is only a faint breath of life.

"Is it hidden in the deepest part of the dead tree?"

Dean followed the faint breath of life and felt it carefully.

then. He was attracted by the gravel road under his feet.

Such roads are common anywhere. But appearing here is definitely not normal!

At least one point can be explained!

Not only are there people gathering here, but these people are living quite...stable lives!

Otherwise, there would be no such leisurely paving the way!

Following Sophia inward, Dean quickly saw the stone monuments on both sides of the road, which were as tall as a person, and there were ten stone monuments on the left and right.

Each piece has a different pattern.

It's not some abstract painting or recorded text, but an existence similar to magical defense.

At least, Dean felt a faint killing atmosphere on it!

"This is the guard of our village!"

Sophia explained.

"Nice guard!"

Dean said so.

It's not pure praise, but seeking truth from facts.

In addition to the faint sense of killing in Dean's perception, these steles also have a certain sense of danger.

And items that can make Dean feel dangerous are naturally quite good guards.

After passing the guarding stele, the eyes suddenly opened up, and the light was brilliant.

Dean looked at everything in front of him in surprise!

Lush green grass, tall and tall trees, and flowers with a faint fragrance.

In one side of the field, the crops have begun to mature, and many figures are walking among them.

On the other side, the houses are neatly arranged, and the barking of dogs and the cries of chickens and ducks are heard from time to time, which completely looks like a normal village.

What surprised Dean even more was that the light source above his head was emitting warmth like the sun.

Subconsciously, Dean stretched out his hand, feeling the warmth.

That's right, the sun!

Dean was unusually sure.

"This is our village!"

Sophia said proudly.

"Very nice village, especially this 'sun'!"

Dean raised his head, squinted his eyes, and looked up at the 'sun'.

The 'light source' has the same function as the sun, and Dean doesn't know what words to use to call him other than the 'sun'.

"That's a gift from the 'Old Spirit'!"

Sophia said piously.

Then. He shouted loudly towards the side of the house: "Hank is out to move things!"

As she spoke, Sophia put down the food and water she was carrying on her back.

And a dozen half-grown children rushed out from inside.

"Sister Sophia!"

"Sister Sophia is back!"

"Sister Sophia, I want to eat oatmeal!"

...

A dozen half-grown children immediately surrounded Sophia and yelled.

And Sophia treated these children patiently while taking off her hood.

Her long emerald green hair draped down her shoulders, her amber pupils were alert and sly, and she had a fair face. The slightly raised nose is indescribably naughty.

Even, there is a trace of wildness.

The children quickly cheered when they saw the food and water next to them.

Then they saw Dean.

Without exception, they all hid behind Sophia, looking at Dean timidly.

"Don't worry. He is not a bad person, even though he is an outsider! Hank, you immediately take someone to move the food and water to the warehouse. I need to take this outsider to meet the elders!"

Sophia said so.

"Okay, Sister Sophia!"

The tallest and strongest of the children nodded immediately. Then, quickly moved food and water with a group of children.

Sophia motioned for Dean to follow.

"You shouldn't be short of food and water, right?"

Dean pointed to the crops on one side, very puzzled.

"Prevention before it happens, you know?"

Sophia asked back.

Dean shrugged and said nothing more.

The other party obviously has something to hide.

However, Dean would never ask anything.

The relationship and positions of the two parties are only temporary cooperative relations, and they have not yet deepened to the extent of this kind of exploration of secrets.

naturally. In the short distance that followed, there was no communication between the two sides.

Until it stops in front of a big tree.

This is a towering tree!

Dean had such an intuitive impression the first time he saw the big tree.

And after careful inspection. From this big tree, he sensed a strong vitality to the extreme, as if he had noticed Dean's detection, this big tree even slightly swayed its branches and leaves.

Hush!

With the soft sound of leaves, a ladder was thrown down from the canopy.

"Sophia, let our distinguished guest come up!"

The thick voice of the middle-aged man sounded.

"Okay, elder!"

Sophia bowed in salute. Then, he climbed straight up the ladder.

After a while. Sophia suddenly realized that Dean hadn't followed.

"Dean, come up!"

Sophia said hello.

Dean touched the tip of his nose. Said: "I think it's better for you to go up first... I'll be there later!"

"?"

Sophia was a little puzzled, and after frowning at Dean, she accelerated her climbing speed.

However, after a while, Sophia came to her senses, her face blushed instantly, and the speed of climbing unconsciously accelerated.

When Dean watched Sophia's figure completely disappear in the canopy, he jumped up.

Just tapped his toes several times on the ladder, and his whole figure entered the canopy of the tree.

But after entering the canopy, it was discovered that there was actually a 'room' here!

Stools, tables, and a bed covered with leaves made entirely from the tree below.

Sitting on the bed was a man dressed in the same clothes made of leaves.

The hair and beard have already covered the other person's face, making it impossible to see the other person's appearance clearly.

However, it wasn't dirty in the slightest.

On the contrary, there is a sense of cleanliness.

At this moment, Sophia was on the other side, kneeling on one knee in front of a wooden statue, praying in a low voice.

mink? !

After seeing the statue clearly, Dean couldn't help but startled.

If he was not mistaken, it was indeed a statue of a mink, and it was also dyed purple by an unknown paint.

This is?

Dean wondered.

"This is the 'ancient spirit' that protects us!"

A thick middle-aged man's voice sounded behind Dean.
