Xing Mo took a deep breath and forced herself to remain calm.
"Don't forget the bet we made in the arena! Tonight, you have to let me suck you all night long!"
As expected, when Xingmo threw out her ultimate move, Aurora was stunned for a moment.
Then, the little white-haired girl tilted her head slightly, her cheeks flushed.
"Suck... How to suck...? Where to suck..."
what?
Xing Mo was stunned, and her face turned red all the way to her ears.
"No... not that kind of sucking! What are you thinking! Don't think about it! That's not what I meant at all..."
"Pfft..." Aurora smiled softly, turned her head, and the love in her eyes danced, "Trash~"
Before Xingmo could say anything, Aurora hugged her and pressed her cheek against hers.
"I won't go back on my word, so I'll show you..."
Green light poured into Xingmo's body. She heard Aurora moaning softly, her small body trembling.
Then, the green lights formed pictures in her eyes.
A sea of flowers, an endless sea of flowers.
In the center of the sea of flowers, a huge "Tree of Life" rises from the ground, emitting a green fluorescent light.
On the highest branch of the tree, a little girl, her delicate body adorned with flowers and plants, was sitting cross-legged and carefree.
She squinted her eyes and hummed a song. When the breeze blew, her long pure white hair fluttered in the air, rolling up pure white petals.
She looked so happy, but for some reason, when Xingmo saw her, endless sadness surged in his heart.
It took her a few seconds to understand what the sadness was - it was loneliness, a loneliness as heavy as a wave.
"call--"
Xingmo opened her eyes and found Aurora lying on her chest, already asleep.
The little girl's pure white long hair was wet, and the wet hair stuck to her cheeks, looking messy.
Her sleeping face looks very peaceful, like a cat lying on its favorite ball of yarn, without any worries.
"..."
Xingmo stroked Aurora's head wordlessly, feeling mixed emotions for a moment.
"What on earth are you coming to this world for?" she murmured in a low voice.
......
Alia walked forward in the darkness.
It was so cold and dark around her that she could hardly breathe.
She has been walking in this suffocating darkness for a long time, from the orphanage to the cage, and then to the dark underground arena.
Her title is "Spirit-Giver", which means that she can give soul to blades. In her hands, even the most ordinary dagger can penetrate armor.
But she didn't know what the point was. All she did was end the lives in front of her, one after another.
Until she met those emerald green eyes.
"..."
A green light suddenly lit up in the darkness. Alia raised her head, her gray eyes trembling slightly.
The huge tree of life covered the sky, shielding her from the oncoming storm.
A girl, a giant tree, and a dark, windy night.
The shadow that permeated her body seemed to gradually disperse, and like a drowning person being caught, Alia felt herself floating up quickly.
She kept rising... rising... until—
"She's awake..."
Alia opened her eyes drowsily and found herself lying on the sofa.
There were two people squatting next to the sofa, and Alya recognized one of them - the guy who defeated her in the arena.
"Don't get excited yet. I was the one who rescued you from the arena," Xing Mo raised her hands. "We have no intention of hurting you."
"That's right." Aurora agreed.
The two of them got up early, and Aurora performed the final "curse" to dispel Alia, and the green light symbolizing life flowed into her body.
Xingmo was still very cautious. After all, Alia was still a warrior in the arena. Who knew if she would have any stress reaction.
She watched Alia stand up blankly, rub her eyes, and look around blankly.
"'Tree of Life'..." Alia murmured softly.
"Hmm?" Xingmo moved closer. "What did you say? What tree?"
The next second, Alia jumped up from the sofa like an arrow.
Xingmo stepped back subconsciously, only to see Alia do a backflip in the air, kneeling on the ground, and bowing:
"You are the saint who serves the 'Tree of Life'! Please... please accept my gratitude!"
4) Haze in the North City (Part 8)
Alia knelt on the sofa, her body trembling slightly.
Seeing Alia's pious expression, Xingmo and Aurora exchanged glances, and a heated conversation took place between their eyes:
Xingmo: What did you do?
Aurora: Save her.
Xingmo: What should I do? She seems to know that you are the "Tree of Life".
Aurora: Does she know? She doesn't know. She thinks you're a saint serving the Tree of Life.
Xing Mo: What should I do then?
Aurora: Preaching.
"..."
After ending the eye contact, Xingmo looked at Alia and swallowed.
This girl seems to have developed faith in the "Tree of Life" because she was freed from the "curse"...
Now, there's no way to send her to an orphanage. If she goes around promoting the "Tree of Life," Aurora's power will skyrocket...
What should I do... What should I do now...
Xingmo was thinking, and suddenly an idea came to him.
She cleared her throat and put on a holy and solemn look.
"Alia, I am the Saint who serves the Tree of Life. Now I ask you to keep this secret and never mention the existence of the Tree of Life to anyone else!"
Alia raised her head and rubbed her eyes. At this time, the dawn light outside the window illuminated half of Xingmo's face, and her emerald eyes seemed to emit a sacred light.
Her eyes are green... the same sacred green as the "Tree of Life"...
At this moment, Alia seemed a little dazed.
Xing Mo, on the other hand, tried hard to maintain his dignified appearance and avoid being exposed.
Thanks for the invitation. The reference prototype of the pious form is: Young Master Nob Sunlight.
After a while, Alia spoke softly:
"...I...I am willing to obey God's will...But if the 'Tree of Life' can save me, can't it save more people?"
"Master 'Tree of Life' is very busy." Xing Mo refused.
Alia seemed to lose her temper.
"...There are many children like me in the port area, with no one to take care of them and no food to eat. In the end, they either end up working in factories or in the arena..."
"...I want to save them..."
The gray-haired loli raised her head, and Xingmo was surprised to find tears in her eyes:
"I want to... I want to save them...! Can you please pray to the 'Tree of Life' for me...?"
Now Xing Mo was in a dilemma. Girl, girl, if you knew that your new god of faith was the white-haired loli with a smirk next to me, would you despair?
Can you please stop believing everything? Believing everything is not good for you!
Anyway, what on earth did Aurora show her that suddenly made her so strong in faith?
When Xingmo was in a dilemma, Aurora beside her suddenly spoke:
"...Girl, our god cannot watch over everyone at once, because his power is not enough..."
"...if you will serve Him, the great 'Tree of Life,' and strengthen His influence in this world, then all people will be saved..."
Aurora's voice was so ethereal and vague that Alia was stunned for a moment.
She pursed her lips and lowered her head, but soon raised it again:
"I am willing."
"Don't you want to think about it? The Xinghai Church is very powerful, and what you are doing is equivalent to collaborating with the enemy." Xing Mo was a little flustered.
"No, don't think about it."
Alia took a deep breath, her grey eyes turning cold.
"Children who grew up in the port area no longer believe in goddesses."
......
Xingmo made breakfast, fed Alia and Aurora, and then listened to the gray-haired little Loli tell her story.
She was an orphan who had been stealing in the port area since she was young. Because of her excellent skills, she soon made a name for herself.
But she was eventually arrested.
In the prison of the port area, she contracted a black disease. At this time, "Black Wood" found her and gave her a contract.
Leave the prison and become a gladiator of "Black Wood". Once you have achieved enough victories, you can leave.
Arya was a master in the arena, and she even won a "holy artifact" for herself in the duel, and no one has surpassed her since then.
But her body was deteriorating, the dark power began to erode her, and she gradually became unable to cope.
Last night's battle was meant to be her last, and she fought tooth and nail, tearing the words out of her opponent's throat.
But in reality, Arya knew that she was dying.
The black air squeezed her internal organs, and every breath she exhaled was like spitting out fire. She knew she would not survive that night.
But the more she knew she was going to die, the more frantically she fought.
Her last wish was to at least die outside the cage.
But even if she walked out of the cage of the Colosseum, there was another cage outside called the Port Area, and after she walked out of the Port Area, there was another cage called the North City.
This world is a nesting cage, a chain that keeps on locking together, and no one can escape.
Until, Alia saw the "Tree of Life" in the darkness.
"..."
After listening to Alia's story, Xingmo fell silent.
She glanced at Aurora, who was looking at her with a playful expression, as if to say:
There seem to be many such things happening in the Goddess's land, huh?
Xingmo didn't intend to argue. She took a deep breath and asked Alia:
"Do you remember where you contracted that black disease?"
Apparently, the black gas disease is equivalent to a "curse" and is a frequent occurrence in "steam man" incidents.
The "Steam Man" is most likely currently hunting down Bishop Fry Sunlight, so this may be a very important clue.
