Landed Xumi: There is no problem with my numbers!

Apep waited patiently for the final result.

When you are sure that the other party has gone far enough away and cannot return in a short time,

Finally, I confirmed that there were no other elemental life reactions in the surrounding area.

We have also planned an evacuation plan in case of an emergency.

This rare grass dragon, which did not use force to overwhelm others and was "extremely wise", finally began to act on its own.

In the endless yellow sand,

A team consisting of a little girl and three mushrooms was traveling through the sandstorm.

Brown mushrooms and green mushrooms are jumping around on the ground.

The blue bubble-like mushroom beast seemed to be in a state of low spirits and was currently being held in the arms of the little grass god.

Nashida tried her best to conceal the existence of the emerald green crystal in her hand as Lin Feng requested, while following the guidance provided by the fire.

With the help of Zhongli and Venti, the area where the Grass Dragon appears has actually been greatly reduced.

Lin Feng not only replaced the other gods' followers with those of the other two gods, but also deliberately created the illusion of acting separately.

Now all preparations are ready.

It all depends on whether the Grass Dragon's remaining judgment after hundreds of years of torture from forbidden knowledge can support it in seeing through this trap.

"Bait! Be careful."

After sensing the presence of something moving underground in the distance,

Lin Feng turned his attention back from the avatar that was actively led away by Apep.

It floated out from Nashida's arms and warned the little guy who might be directly attacked by Apep.

Even if they switched sides, he felt that the Grass Dragon would not be able to guess that these three mushrooms were the main force that would attack it later.

But whether the other party will show up is indeed an unknown.

After receiving the reminder, Nashida tried her best not to show any strange expression.

While looking at the three mushrooms beside him, he was a little nervous about whether this operation could be successful.

——I just hope that this emerald green crystal that was dug out from the Jingshan Palace and called the fire seed by the brown mushroom beast will be attractive enough to Apep.

At this moment, after the only abnormality in the surrounding area was led away by the other party,

If this Green Grass Dragon intends to show up, it will be in the next short period of time.

A few days ago, I learned about Lin Feng's ambitious goal of gathering the power of the seven elements.

He also learned from the Rock God that the power of the grass element would play a key role in his subsequent actions.

Nashida pursed her lips, and together with the three harmless little mushrooms around her, she alertly explored the surroundings for any signs of abnormality.

Didn't come or didn't come

"Rumble--"

!!!

And just when she even thought that this operation had failed,

It is necessary to adopt plan B, which is to have the four gods directly block off a large area and then search it bit by bit after a time-consuming and laborious process.

A strong tremor and noise, like a giant moving underground, suddenly came from under the feet of the Mushroom Team.

The wind and sand were dispersed, the rocks were crushed, and the surrounding mountains gradually collapsed.

Faced with this scene that is enough to frighten ordinary people to the point of kneeling down and begging for mercy,

The three pairs of dull and lifeless small round eyes of the mushroom beasts present suddenly burst into an unprecedented bright light.

——Finally you’ve taken the bait. If you dare to show up, you won’t be able to escape!

Chapter 223: Apep, the Self-Respecting One

On the north side of the Pillared Sand Plain, billions of grains of sand gather together.

On the vast sand dunes, yellow sand is flying all over the sky.

Around Nashida and the three mushrooms,

Violent tremors continued to come from deep in the earth.

The awakening of some giant creature caused the golden sand on the surface to retreat to both sides like flowing water.

Immediately afterwards, a huge ochre-colored monster slowly emerged from under the yellow sand.

——It was a head as huge as a mountain range.

Even if only a tiny part of the entire body is exposed above the ground,

But when it rose from under the feet of the crowd, it still exuded a suffocating and intense sense of oppression.

In a few brief blinks,

This ancient dragon, standing at the pinnacle of all elemental creatures, revealed its full appearance with an agile posture that was totally inconsistent with its huge body.

- A sturdy body, huge sandy yellow scales, and rhizome-like horn-like protrusions all over the body.

Just by appearing on the ground, it flattened the surrounding sand dunes and rocks, and completely changed the topography of the area.

Inadvertently, it showed everyone the majesty and glory that once belonged only to the original rulers of this land.

——Apep, whom Lin Feng and Zhongli had been searching for for a long time, finally showed up.

The extremely large grass dragon immediately used its huge elemental power to disrupt the surrounding earth veins after it appeared.

When it determines that there are no living creatures in the short term, it can use the ground veins to achieve rapid movement.

Apep bought himself and the weak god in front of him a lot of alone time.

Looking down at Nashida standing in front of the three mushrooms, he spoke in a condescending tone:

"——Little god, the outsider you relied on has been led away. Now there is no one who can protect a weak being like you."

"—hand over the fire in your hand and leave,

I can, for the sake of justice, not pursue your entanglement with me over this period of time."

"."

Do not rashly attack living beings protected by the laws of nature. This is the consensus of all ancient beings.

Therefore, out of fear of the rule maker,

Even though Apep was very annoyed at the extremely weak god in front of him who was still chasing him at the risk of his life, he still did not intend to use violence at the beginning.

"——You should know that we have no ill intentions and are here to seek cooperation, Apep."

Under the absolute power gap,

Nashida, who was originally in a weak position and should have been trembling in fear in Apep's opinion,

Facing the Grass Dragon's show of strength, he showed no sign of fear at all, but continued to speak with full confidence:

"In the history that has been preserved today, it is clearly recorded that you and the Great Compassionate Tree King have both contributed to stopping the spread of forbidden knowledge."

"Even though that may not be your original intention, now that I have inherited the throne of Grass, I still have the responsibility to fulfill the promise I made back then."

"—I know you hate gods and humans, but we are here to save you, Apep."

The size difference between the two sides was so huge that Nashida was like an ant in front of the other.

He was not intimidated by the other party's momentum at all, and stated the core purpose of his trip very sincerely.

"."

"Haha, stupid god, even though he has evolved, he is still as innocent and naive as he was back then."

"—I don't need to be saved, especially by despicable thieves like you."

Among the seven ancient dragons, Apep was the most steadfast follower of the Dragon King.

Unlike those who have become too close to the gods,

Even when it was at its weakest, it never truly trusted those who had stolen the power of the ancient dragons.

And Amon, who had plotted against it and caused Apep to fall into its current situation, made it completely lose the intention to communicate with these guys.

"Humph, there's no need to say any more useless nonsense. I have no intention of cooperating with the gods."

"——Hand over the elemental crystal in your hand, or you will pay a heavy price. Don't think that I really don't dare to take action."

The green light in Apep's vertical pupils, representing the elemental power, became brighter and brighter.

It is obviously not just talking about the constant worry about the outsider's return.

".You are just like Amon. You only existed for a short time, but you relied on the glory of heaven to claim to be the lord of this place."

"Weak god, do you think you have any chance of defeating me?

Or do you still have some unrealistic expectations, thinking that someone can save you in this desolate and dead land?"

I originally thought that as long as I made a request, the weak god in front of me would be tactful and hand over the crystal.

But facing Nashida's obviously abnormal reaction,

No matter how much Apep threatened, he was still worried and checked the surrounding environment again.

——No problem. Apart from the gods in front of me and my three followers, there are no other elemental reactions. There is no way anything could happen.

!!!

No! Why did two more elemental reactions appear behind me?

Suddenly, he realized that his "follower" had never communicated with him since he appeared. This was completely different from the previous state where he was always trying to transmit information.

Thinking back to the fearless attitude of the god in front of him and the "we" she mentioned, Apep instantly realized that he might have been fooled!

as predicted,

After confirming that even face-to-face communication would not lead to cooperation,

The blue mushroom that looked like a floating bubble beside Nashida gradually lost its disguise and turned into a black-haired boy.

The figure holding the green chess piece-shaped God's Heart just appeared.

An aura that was a mixture of various powers and whose strength was even not inferior to it spread around the opponent.

"."

".Sure enough, you weak gods, even after thousands of years, still only rely on the power of outsiders."

"——You cunning fellow, that's all. Don't think I will surrender."

Apep, realizing he had been tricked, was extremely angry at the despicable nature of the gods.

Even so, it didn't think there was any point in fighting with the other side, so after saying the harsh words, it immediately turned around and prepared to hide under the yellow sand again.

"Hey, the power of outsiders? Old man, it seems like someone is looking down on you?"

"——Who said we can't stop you by ourselves?"

"."

Just as Apep was about to turn around and retreat, he heard two auras of authority coming from behind him.

Listening to these words carried to my ears by the breeze,

It had been active since the Demon War, and it instantly remembered to whom such power belonged.

"——Barbatos! Morax! Why are you also helping this outsider?!"

At first, when he saw Nashida alone, Apep felt that he had an overwhelming advantage in strength.

At this moment, I have realized that I am the real loner.

Looking back, it originally thought that there were only two gods in Xumi, and at most one of its followers had been replaced.

Desperately, I discovered that the other two stupid mushrooms had also lost their disguises.

Transformed into two young men surrounded by cyan and gold elements,

They each held a chess piece called the Heart of God, and in the gathering of countless elements, they revealed their true form as gods.
