Chapter 61 The Tree of Impeachment(1/2)
"Are you, the rotten rope?"
The crow stretched out his neck, flapping his wings, and made an excited laugh from his throat.
"Hahahaha, this is really interesting! This is a really surprising ending. This scene would not have happened in my script... I really didn't expect that Chang Ye would not even die with you. It was useless to waste my efforts and he was too unlucky."
It has always been very confident in its control of the "script".
As long as "crow" is arranged, controlled, and incited, anyone will dance at his fingertips, like a doll pulled by a puppet thread.
——It is precisely because of this that "crow" feels extremely interesting. This plot that is separated from its own script will make the stage more vivid and colorful.
"Yes, that guy named Chang Ye Hongming is indeed more difficult to deal with! But it's a pity that he was too self-reliant and thought that mastering the power of the curse would be equivalent to invincibility. It was really stupid."
At this moment, the "rotten rope" in the posture of the witch Asa smiled disdainfully.
Of course, she was making a fool of herself and specifically put on an attitude that she had solved Chang Ye Hongming.
The rotten rope did not know what the battle situation of the "Forest of the World" was. She speculated that the mysterious black shadow living in the sea of trees should be able to be dragged for a while.
(I was cheated! It seems that the guy named Chang Ye Hongming was just a scam strategy to transfer me away. That guy Takizawa is their hidden poison bait...)
At this moment, the rotten rope finally understood this clearly.
"Takizawa is yours. I understand. He should be the thirteenth person, the one who should not appear there at the least!"
The source of dissonance felt by the people in the car was Takizawa, a man who was not among the participants in the "impeachment ceremony".
Theoretically, as the organizer, and everyone else should have noticed this and should have discovered that there was a problem with Takizawa's identity very early, but this did not happen, which means something.
"Is it based on cognitive and memory-level tampering? But how did this be done?"
Kyakaro was secretly surprised in her heart. She couldn't figure out how the other party did it all, and what reason was that Takizawa specially made such a deliberate performance?
"Royal Rope, you are still as naive as before. It seems you can't figure it out!"
The crow spoke in a deep voice like a mocking person: "Although you can guess Takizawa is poisonous bait, you must still not understand what Takizawa is from the direction of your thinking. Your limitation is that your imagination is really limited, which is why you are fooled by me?"
"Hmph, are you pretending to be a ghost!?"
Hold the rotten rope and raise it flat, pointing the tip of the knife to the other party from afar.
"Why do I need to understand these things? Even if I can't figure it out, it doesn't matter. As long as you two are solved, most of the problems will be solved!"
"That may not be," the crow's gray beak moved.
"In fact, even if you solve both of us, it will probably be useless for everything that will happen next."
"Takizawa has successfully entered the 'out there'. Everything is as we planned before. You can't stop anything now!"
Sudo also spoke: "You trust the sealing power of the secret land of the 'Ghost Wuli Village'. Indeed, relying on the power exerted by the first generation of forging academy and the empress is enough to prevent the invasion of the superior curse or evil swords."
"But the seal of the secret only has strong interference in the invasion of the outside world, and its internal structure is not necessarily perfect,"
"If a castle cannot be conquered from the outside, it can only be tried to break from the inside. Our plan is also based on this."
The man looked at her with a serious look.
"If you want to 'liberate' the adult sleeping place in the secret land, the existence of the 'poison bait' is necessary. With his power, you can even have the opportunity to awaken him!"
"Are you guys holding that idea?"
In an instant, Killer read some information from it and understood the subtext of Sudo's words. For a moment, she was shocked.
"This is really crazy! Do you really know what you are doing?!"
"Of course, we know very well what we are doing, otherwise why we would have been preparing for so long."
Sudo said slowly: "Takizawa is a chess piece we carefully selected, and his existence is for this day."
"...You guys are very planning!"
The rotten rope sneered. At this moment, she could figure out what the real goal of this group of people was...
(Is it to release that 'destroyed god'? It's such a group of lunatics. I can't figure out what they are thinking? Do these guys really know what this will bring?)
Hearing her sneer, the crow also laughed "Kukuku" in line with her.
"The rotten rope, you are actually too stupid, but you will be as emotional as humans. This is your fatal point. This problem will occur. It should be the problem caused by your father, the first-generation forging academy, which belongs to human bloodline."
She didn't react much to such almost provocative words.
"And, there is one thing I still can't figure out."
The rotten rope just stared at his eyes, staring at the gray-beaked crow.
"Speaking of this, we probably don't know each other, right? Who are you? And... Sudo, when did you join the organization called "Sakura Club"?"
The crow didn't respond, but just let out a chilling and weird laugh.
On the other side, Sudo said slowly: "Sir Kyūroki, do you think it's meaningful to ask this question now? Will the current situation change after I give the answer?"
The man looked at the rotten rope with a calm expression.
"I didn't stand here after accepting someone's orders, nor was I brainwashed, blinded or confused. I chose to 'betray', it was purely my own will..."
The moment he spoke, several figures suddenly jumped out from behind Sudo and rushed towards her like a wild beast.
"Round rope, you can stay this trip!"
###
After passing through the door, Takizawa felt a flash in front of his eyes and the surrounding scenes changed. In his vision, the first layer of thin layer of gray and white mist was spreading outward.
He lowered his head and suddenly realized that the ground paved with stone slabs under his feet had turned into a piece of black soil, and in addition to the fog, it also turned into an empty area that could be seen at a glance.
"I... didn't I pass through that stone door just now, it's really strange? Where is this place?"
A thin mist was floating in the air, but the light around him was not bright. He thought for a while and looked forward in confusion. In his hazy vision, he found a figure wearing a windbreaker quickly getting closer.
——Because Sudo was also wearing a windbreaker, Takizawa quickly became alert. He stepped back a few steps and was about to take out his pistol.
However, he soon realized that if the other party was Sudo who could "turn a disaster into a ghost", he would not be useful even if he had a gun.
After all, the remaining bullets in his gun are not the bone-making spell bullets that can fight against the ghost. If they really encounter them, they will only be a death sentence!
"Takizawa...you are here!"
The man approached Nikaido, and the man looked at him in surprise.
"—Ryuzaoji wondered why you disappeared? By the way, how did you come here?"
"Wait a minute, what is this place? I just walked through the door just now, why did it suddenly become what I am now?"
Takizawa spoke in a panic, his speech was surprisingly fast.
Nikaido was very calm, and his answer was also very simple.
"This is not a strange place, and you should be able to guess where you are..."
"What do you want to say?"
"'Ifu Yezaka's Cave'... Do you still remember?"
Nikaido replied calmly: "This is the 'Ifu Yezaka Cave' that Guiwuri Village has been guarding, but it has another name, that is 'Huangquan Hirasaka'."
...
"Ifu Yezaka's Cave" is also called Huangquan Birasaka. This is a legendary path to Huangquan, which is the "Root Country". In other words, it is considered to be the underworld or the underworld where the dead are located.
"The underworld and other things should be just the level of rumors, but it is indeed a bit special here..."
The two of them walked through a rocky area and could see some ruin-like buildings around them. These buildings were grayish-white, mostly very old stone houses. At the end of these buildings, there was an ancient tree with countless snake-like roots exposed on the ground.
The roots of the ancient tree are set up with huge altars like stages. Large swaths of roots pierced the stone altar and extended down along the gray-white stone staircase, covering the entire staircase.
Just below the stairs, there were dense figures of people kneeling, all of whom were villagers from the Essay Village.
The leader was an old lady, that is, the mother-in-law Ashililala, who were praying like devout believers.
"Are these people kneeling down to worship this big tree?"
He looked at the strange big tree, his pupils tightened, and the man suddenly realized that it was an extremely strange giant tree.
Takizawa also knew that there were many wonderful plants in the world, but this big tree did not belong to this type of plant. This tree had a strange appearance. It was a twisted and spiral growing tree.
The reason why it looks huge is because it was grown from the ground by three giant trees that merged together. The tree had no leaves. The branches and black trunks were covered with scale-like textures, spiraling out like flowers, and some dark mud kept flowing down from its bare trunks.
However, nothing is that, the key is that above the deformed and twisted tree, there is an amazingly long stick-shaped shuttle object that pierces the tree like a spear, nailing it to the stage-like altar, as if deliberately preventing the tree from stretching out its "limbs".
"They... are not worshiping this big tree, but bowing to the spear that pierced this big tree!!"
Suddenly, Takizawa woke up this point and then carefully observed the stick-shaped schizone. This schizone was a huge metal stick, with a length of more than 30 meters, and "penetrated" through this spiral-growing giant tree at an oblique angle.
...I really don't understand! What is this?!
Although he couldn't figure it out, it did not prevent him from feeling a strong sense of irritability in his heart. Along with this strong sense of irritability, there was also a headache like needle-like pricking.
Cold sweat oozed from Takizawa's forehead, and he reached out to hold the position of his temple. At this moment, his eyes became a little dazed, and a slight whispering sound came into his ears - it was the sound of floating along the wind, as if some special living creature was constantly dancing in his ears.
(The sound seems to be coming from the direction of the tree, it's really strange? Why do I feel that the tree seems to be calling me...)
"Takizawa, are you okay?"
The red-haired woman approached from behind, and the female ninja from "Izusatoyuan" was a little worried about his situation.
