Chapter 226: Pause and Repair
Back in the Twisted Forest, Zell asked Maukai to help tie the Fear to the ground with his roots in case it attacked them after it was out of control.
Then he took Poluo and the others out to fight the wild, which means he hit a few spiders and triggered the plunder to obtain coins. He could get a little more mana.
July may really have a shadow on spiders. They only dare to scare the spiders from a distance. They are not as brave as April, so they fly over and poke the spiders with the Dark Night Reaper.
Under the characteristics of the fierce aura, the spider fled all the way and did not dare to fight back. After chasing for hundreds of meters, the spider suddenly fell to the ground and died suddenly.
I don’t know if it was because the Shadow Reaper died too strongly, or because the body was overheated and burned the brain because of long-distance running.
Anyway, Zel got the lucky coin he wanted and returned to the stationary site with the Polus.
"Little guys! My roots have been rooted in the soil again, and the energy has begun to slowly recover. I owe you a kindness."
As soon as he came back, Zell heard Maokai talking. His voice was loud and the leaves were shaking.
"Your leaves have turned green, which is gratifying." Ali said.
"This disaster has consumed too much of my strength. If I want to fully restore the woods, it will take a long time to break through the black fog barrier..."
Sarah: "But what we lack is time. The King of Defeated has escaped. Who needs to stop him?"
"I have no other way." Maokai said regretfully.
Olui asked with the gods, "Guardian, we have encountered difficulties... The demon Thresh destroyed the amulet used to seal Foyego before leaving. If he is not sealed, a new Soul Erosion Night will come, and it is stronger and stronger than before."
The destructive curse breaks the boundary between life and death, trapping the soul at the junction of neither life nor death.
If Foyego is defeated without sealing it, it will not be solved, because he will be resurrected again and again, just like the soul-eating night again and again, forever.
Maokai seemed to remember something: "I live alone in the mountains and forests, and I don't know much. But I know that before the ruined curse, monks and python archipelago on Fukuo Island had close contact. You can search along the coast of the python archipelago. There is a temple at the bottom of the sea where the Baru people teach the monks on Fukuo Island how to communicate with the snake mother, and maybe you can find similar holy objects inside."
"I thought those are myths and legends... But Baru's records never mention the temple under the sea."
"I'll look for it. I've seen something in the deep sea." Parker said: "Just bring me nearby, the undercurrents under the sea will guide me."
"Stop! What do you think? Do you know how long it will take to return to Bilgewater from Shadow Island? It's enough for Foyego to kill us? And who said that you will definitely find something to deal with Foyego? If it really doesn't work, let Gwen seal Foyego and we will find a way to create opportunities for her."
Although Sarah said it a little ugly, she still made sense. This time, the time for exploring the temple was at least half a month, which was enough for Soul-Erosion Night to come to the Soul-Erosion Night for more than a dozen times.
Zer listened to their discussion, looked up at the dark sky with a stunning look.
"Did you think of something?"
Roy walked into his sight, swept a piece of roots exposed on the ground with his hand, and sat down and patted off the dust stained on his hands.
Zell looked around and confirmed that Senna and Gwen were a little distance away, so he sat down and said what he thought.
"I was wondering, since what Foyego wants is Isuld, can we hand her over to him? As long as he doesn't get Isuld, the whole world will pay for him."
"It's really a cold and cruel solution." Roy looked at Gwen and the others: "The queen no longer loves Foyego. Do you want her to return to him after she dies to be tortured? Moreover, Gwen and Senna have already blended with the queen's soul. If Foyego snatched the queen's soul, they will die."
Roy felt that this might not convince Zell to put away this dangerous idea, and added: "Even if I return Isuld to him, there will be at least ten Horcruxes scattered around the world. If he insists on finding them, the whole world will still fall into the soul-eroding night. If we don't help him find other Horcruxes, do you think he will let us go?"
"I know, so I'm wondering if there is a possibility...Foyego is willing to change for the queen after realizing that he is wrong?" Zell held his chin. IfFoyego is really a purely love god of war, then it's okay to restrain his temperament in order to save Isuld?
As long as he can stay in Shadow Island without causing trouble, no one will come to him.
"Is this... possible? He was a control freak during his lifetime, and he would only become even worse after his death. It would be difficult to make him feel guilty about the queen."
"Then try it, see how much he is willing to do for the queen."
"You want to threaten him with Isuld?" Roy seemed to realize something.
Zell did not answer clearly, but just said: "If it really reaches that level..."
...
As time came, Zell asked before the others got into the tent: "Who is vigiling tonight?"
"Shopkeeper, I'll watch the night. I'm fine if I don't have to sleep." Gwen was the first to answer.
"I can do it too, I don't want to sleep tonight." Weigus said listlessly, she muttered quietly, but was still heard.
"Isn't Maukai there?" Roy asked.
"Maokai has no idea of time. I need someone to wake me up to prevent me from oversleeping." Zell said to the two after explaining: "Wake me up at about four o'clock."
Roy reached into Zell's clothes, took out a pocket watch from it and put it in front of him and shook it: "Shopkeeper, if I remember correctly, your pocket watch can be timed, right?"
"Not what if it suddenly breaks?"
Seeing Zell pressing his hand back, Roy got into the tent with him speechlessly.
Not long after, she got out of the tent again, tidied up the messy and crystal-clear ends of her hair, and covered her red cheeks with her hands.
Zell came out after him, holding a mocha pot and a can of coffee beans in his hand, and then watched her operate.
“Why did you think of making coffee here?”
"If you don't do it for too long, your skills will become rusty." She grind the coffee beans into powder and put them into the upper half of the filter pot, then poured food water into the lower half and put it on the stove to cook.
"Do you drink it yourself? Can you still sleep after drinking?" Zell squatted down and yawned. Xiao Huang took the opportunity to jump onto his back, then climbed onto his shoulder and watched.
