“But I can’t do anything about my physical ailments.”
"I...can't do anything."
Nashida once again felt inferior for her own powerlessness. She lowered her head in frustration and returned to her body with red eyes.
But at this moment, she suddenly noticed something strange in her body.
In the past 500 years, because the sages were very repulsive to her and deliberately suppressed her presence, only a very small number of people in the entire Xumi believed in her. As a result, although Nashida possessed the status of a top demon god, the total amount of divine power had never increased. She could only rely on herself to accumulate it slowly, and could only explore the power on her own.
Just now, her consciousness was out of her body for a while. After returning, the divine power in her body was fuller than ever before. She had never felt so satisfied before.
Who filled her up?
Nashida's little face was full of nervousness, and she looked around, but this huge, exquisite and elegant palace was still empty. She was the only one floating in the barrier built by the emerald green divine power.
"Don't look for it, I'm right here with you."
A strange male voice sounded in her ears.
On me?
Nashida tilted her head cutely, but after she realized what was happening, her cuteness turned into alertness: "What do you want to do?"
"Originally, I didn't actually plan to do anything, but now I want to come up with a [Rainforest Collapse Plan] to rebuild the corrupt House of the Order..." Fang Yun shook his head slightly. He had just connected with Nashida with the help of the Great Compassion Tree King. He could see Nashida's situation from the lack of divine power in her body, but he was interrupted before he could finish his words.
because--
When Nashida heard Fang Yun talk about the "Rainforest Collapse Plan", a dazzling emerald light suddenly flashed on her body, and the divine power in her body was quickly condensed, as if it was about to explode in the next second.
Now that things have come to this, I can only explode
No, how come you explode faster than the Great Compassion Tree King?
Fang Yun was stunned as he realized that he had triggered the potato mine mechanism. However, he now possessed the same authority of the World Tree as the Great Compassion Tree King. With a thought, he forcibly controlled Nashida's body to stop the self-destruction.
But Nashida was not depressed. Instead, she murmured to herself, "Sure enough, dreams cannot weave such an experience that I have never had before."
She has never self-destructed, so there will naturally be no situation in the dream where she would self-destruct, otherwise the dream would collapse because it could not function.
Yes, Nashida thought she was dreaming... She just said "I can't do anything", but when she regained consciousness, she found that her body was full of strength. She even felt that she could break the divine barrier in front of her with seven punches.
But how could such an outrageous thing happen in the world? She didn't have any special account.
If it really worked, she might as well have said "Respond to me, Lan Fangyun" just now.
"So, you think you are dreaming?" Fang Yun sighed, but was also slightly relieved. He thought Nashida would really self-destruct at any time.
"Is not it?"
"It's not a dream."
"I don't believe it." Nashida tried to end the dream, but no matter how she used her mental power, she could not break the illusion.
In desperation, she had to imitate what she saw in the void and reached out to pinch her face hard, but then she realized that she had no control over her body.
Fang Yun smiled and enthusiastically helped her realize her wish.
"Ouch, what are you doing!" Nashida's cute voice with a hint of tears rang out, "It hurts!"
Fang Yun withdrew his hand. He had already told Nashida with his actions that whether it was an illusion or reality, she had already lost.
"You, look confused?" Fang Yun asked.
Volume 3: Chapter 7 Nashida: Farewell, Cage!
confused?
Nashida chewed on the word, bit her lip and nodded.
She was indeed very confused. Although she used to feel inferior because of her identity as the moon, she at least had a goal and knew what to do. But now she felt that she was an insignificant existence.
but--
"Please...please leave my body first!" Nashida mustered up her courage and said hesitantly. She didn't want anyone to stay in her body and not come out.
After she finished speaking, she gritted her teeth and added: "At least, give me back the control of my body."
Although she was full of doubts about her future, she never hesitated about protecting Xumi.
Protecting Xumi with one's life, this is the mission of the Grass God!
Since this is not a dream, the "Rainforest Collapse Plan" mentioned by this mysterious man is very dangerous... With their consciousness bodies touching each other at this moment, Nashida can feel that he is not lying.
Fang Yun could also feel Nashida's emotions, but as he looked at Nashida who was afraid but still stood up strong, he couldn't help but sigh.
"What if I don't return my body to you? Will you explode like you did just now?"
"That depends on whether you want to destroy Xumi. If you bring harm to Xumi, even if I can't defeat you, I will do everything I can to stop you."
Narcida's tone was firm.
She didn't know how far she could go, but even if her self-destruction could only seal the hands of this mysterious man, she thought it was worth it.
Fang Yun finally understood. Although Nashida tried to self-destruct because she thought she was dreaming, that also represented her subconscious reaction.
But fortunately, Nashida at least was thinking about sealing a pair of hands instead of sealing a bridge.
Just as I was thinking this, I heard the somewhat embarrassed voice of the Great Compassion Tree King: "Nashida is just like me, she has a strong sense of responsibility. Uh, sometimes she tends to be impulsive when she is anxious."
When you are in a hurry, you have to activate the backup hidden energy, right?
"Huh, really? Then how do you explain Lannaro and Hua Ling?" Fang Yun didn't give her face. "Lannaro can be said that the forest will remember everything, but what about Hua Ling? Hua Lings are proud to imitate the divine bird Sigmar and sacrifice themselves! This is the philosophy you left for them!"
"Then...what do you want to do?" The tone of the Great Ci Tree King was a little flustered. She remembered the method Fang Yun used to transform Zulwan last time.
Is this brat going to threaten Nashida by asking her to stay on the phone while he is harassing her?
Don't listen? Then I'll test your code!
You don't want your mother to be rubbed hard by me, do you?
But the problem is, she hasn't recognized Nashida yet, and this is taboo knowledge for Nashida!
"I'll have a good talk with her first. If that doesn't work, I'll have to ask you to come forward." Fang Yun snorted unhappily, but what he meant by coming forward was a formal recognition. He couldn't really waste time on the Great Compassion Tree King in front of Nashida.
Of course, the Great Ci Tree King still needs to be tested. He hasn't injected the Inazuma patriotic gene into the Great Ci Tree King for some time.
"I'll teach you a lesson later."
"You little bastard..."
The Great Compassion Tree King was speechless, but didn't say anything. She was already in Fang Yun's bedroom at this time.
The two chose to open Xumi's communication immediately after Fang Yun returned to the castle tower, rather than waiting until the matter was completed. This was actually the idea of the Great Compassion Tree King.
There was no other way. If she opened the communication after the incident, the Great Compassion Tree King would always feel weird. She didn't want to chat with others after being filled with wounds.
She had experienced this deeply when she was with Fucaros before: Fucaros always accused her of being unenthusiastic and restrained, as if she was afraid of being exposed.
As for now...
The Great Ci Tree King looked down at Qi Liangliang who had turned into a cat and was sleeping in the middle of the big bed. She felt that she should not worry about this warm cat.
Fang Yun turned his attention back to Nashida.
He returned control of the body to Nashida, but did not speak immediately. Instead, he looked at her first.
From the appearance, she was the same as the petite little girl in the emerald dress in his memory. Her cute toes, wrapped in step-on socks, as crystal clear as pearls, were gently curled up in an attractive arc, looking very adorable.
If there is any difference, it is probably that there is still confusion on her cute and delicate face.
"Aren't you wearing shoes?" Fang Yun suddenly asked.
"what?"
Narcida was frightened!
Seeing that the mysterious man remained silent, she thought he was planning some big move, but she didn't expect that he was concerned about her clothes.
"I don't like wearing shoes." Nashida explained weakly, "I... don't like the feeling of being bound."
Yes, she no longer has her freedom. If she is restrained even when walking, even someone as submissive as her will not accept it.
Fang Yun glanced at her pretty little feet. For the time being, he had no idea about the fact that Nashida didn't like to wear shoes.
"Who are you? Why do you want to destroy the rainforest?" Nashida asked.
She did not sense any ill will towards her from Fang Yun. On the contrary, filling her up seemed more like he was helping her.
Even though she was still in her infancy and the divine power she could carry was limited, now that her mana was full, it was enough for her to break through the barrier and gain freedom.
But it is precisely because of this that she cannot understand why the other party is coming up with the rainforest collapse plan.
"Actually, you should have some ideas of your own, right?" Fang Yun asked back. He didn't believe that Nashida would have no guesses.
Nashida fell silent. She did have a target of suspicion...Divine power carries many characteristics of the gods themselves and is extremely exclusive. If it is left in the outside world, it will produce radiation similar to that in the Wuxiang Blade Gorge. Unless it is a twin demon god or something else from the same source, it is impossible to help others replenish their divine power.
This mysterious person who suddenly appeared can not only help her replenish her divine power, but also use mental powers far superior to hers to control her body. There is only one person who can meet these conditions.
Xumi Lan Fangyun who can summon the Thousand-Armed Buddha statue.
In other words, it was Inazuma Fangun who could transform into a Crow Tengu warrior.
Or maybe, he has quietly merged the two powers and become even stronger than before.
But that was precisely why she was worried. If Fang Yun had ill will towards Xumi, then if she abdicated the position of Grass God to him, wouldn't that be harming Xumi?
But it still doesn’t make sense. He can obviously inherit the position of Grass God, so why does he still have to deal with the rain forest?
Why did Your Majesty rebel?
"Wait, I understand. Are you dissatisfied with the rainforest because I was imprisoned by the sages?" Nashida seemed to have guessed the reason.
"That's a factor, but it's more than that... I won't talk about those old things. Let's talk about the present. You should know the academic atmosphere of the Faculty of Letters. And there are big problems within the Faculty of Letters regarding the affairs of the children like Cole."
"what?"
"You think too highly of those scholars. Xumi is indeed unable to compete with Zhidong in terms of military strength, but Zhidong was able to try to capture Lanaro in Xumi after the incident with Cole and other children a few years ago, and conducted human experiments unscrupulously. How could the Order be clean?"
Whether or not they can win is one thing, but after the incident with Cole and the other kids, they didn't dare to blame the Dong Kingdom, and then they helped foreigners continue conducting human experiments in their own country. This is extremely rare even among the rare ones.
And this is not just speculation or smear. In the plot of the mushroom beast activities, from the words of the doctor's subordinates, it can be seen that Zhidong has indeed planted many traitors in the Institute of the Church and has interfered with Xumi to a considerable extent.
If it weren't for the departure of the doctor and the downfall of the four sages who participated in the god-making project, these people would never have thought of being exposed, and they might have been able to live peacefully in Xumi until retirement.
Nashida fell silent after hearing this, but her breathing became extremely rapid, her breath fluctuated violently, and she clenched her fists so tightly that her knuckles turned white.
She looked at the emerald green barrier blocking her way, which was also the cage that had trapped her for five hundred years, and took a step forward.
Fang Yun was waiting for her next move, but Nashida did not move.
"What's wrong? You're obviously very angry."
"I...I don't know what to do."
Nashida shook her head blankly. The courage she had just mustered up suddenly disappeared. She sat down on the ground with her head down. "I am such a failure. I don't have a way to eliminate the dead zone, and I am unable to save those children suffering from the magic scale disease. I... I don't have the ability to govern Xumi well."
She was angry at the incompetence of the Ministry of Education when it came to human experiments, but when she wanted to take a step forward, she couldn't help but think with inferiority: If the Ministry of Education couldn't manage Xumi well, how could she?
After all, she is just an illusory moon.
Thinking of this, Nashida took a deep breath and said in a pleading tone: "Lan Fangyun, or Fangyun... I don't know how to call you, but judging from your appearance, you should have a way, right?"
"But I'm not the Grass God. Governing Xumi should be your responsibility. Don't you even have the courage to take the first step?" Fang Yun asked back.
Nashida still lowered her head: "I can't do it, and I can't leave the Jingshan Palace."
Seeing that she was still so self-abased, Fang Yun sighed helplessly: "Can you really not get out? I have given you the power to break the barrier. No, even without me, you can still leave. I don't think you need me to teach you a way, right? Can you not get out, or do you not want to get out?"
"..."
At this moment, the simple words seemed to turn into a sharp blade, striking directly at the invisible barrier in Nashida's heart.
Lies don't hurt, truth is the knife.
She sat on the ground with her hands on her shoulders and buried her head even lower. This was something she had never wanted to face.
In the past, in order to become a qualified god, she constantly acquired new knowledge through the void, constantly listened to the voices of the people, and tried to catch up with the figure in her heart. This was the pursuit of the [Moon] for the [Sun].
but--
Although she listened to the voices of the people, it seemed that she had never seriously listened to her own voice. She just mechanically and numbly set a goal for herself and worked hard.
She has been comforting herself that it is more important to interpret the message left by the Great Compassion Tree King at the World Tree and save Xumi. Being imprisoned and despised by sages of all generations is tolerable, but is she really not angry?
Of course she was angry.
Over the years, Xumi's academic decline was obvious to the common people, not to mention the sages. Couldn't she see it? Didn't she ever think of governing Xumi herself?
