After listening to William's explanation, Vigilante A looked at the remaining tree root and asked in confusion, "Tell me more clearly, what's an accomplice, and what's a sacrifice?"
William quickly explained, "When I first came in, I was with Director Hook and the leader of the evil alchemists, Countess Barito. At that time, the Countess said that she wanted to use the giant tree that the Great Wizard Abraham had turned into as a sacrifice for the Astral Formation to increase the power of the formation … However, Director Hook dissuaded her, saying that she couldn't use the Great Wizard as a sacrifice while he was unconscious. "
As for Director Hook's fate, he did not mention it because that fellow had hurt his uncle, he did not want him to come back alive …
"I see. This great wizard must have lost his mind to the murderous intent of Heaven and Earth, so he was used by others. He willingly became an accomplice in the formation and helped the alchemists to refine souls, but he did not know that in the end, it would be his turn to refine souls. How sad. "Vigilante A shook his head and sighed.
"That's right." William nodded in agreement. "I wonder if the Venerable One has any way to help this old man return to normal?"
"Let me think of a way. Such a kind person should not end up like this …" Vigilante A nodded.
In the System Space.
"Hey, we've actually met this old man Abraham once before. He's an acquaintance." Sir System said to Fang Ning.
"Oh, is that so? When? " Fang Ning did not have a good memory like Sir System, especially when it came to remembering people. He had always been too lazy to remember people's names.
"When the USA was trying to uphold justice for a few sins, this old man Abraham protected them. According to the System Map, he was an extremely kind person at that time. I didn't expect him to end up like this. Good people really don't get rewarded … "Sir System sighed.
"You're right this time. The so-called good will get rewarded is something that only happens when the fire of civilization rises. Without the fire of civilization, there will only be the law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak. Oh right, I remember that the Bodhisattva Spirit King established himself from the Upper Realm of Buddhism. He wanted to build a world where good will be rewarded. There must be a story behind this."
"Stop talking nonsense. Why don't you think we should save this old man first?" Sir System asked.
"Uh, it's him. Although we managed to keep the root, can he still be saved in his current state?" Fang Ning looked at the scene outside. It was a towering tree, and all that was left was a broken tree root protruding from the ground. He said suspiciously, "Besides, what if this old man returns kindness with ingratitude after we save him?"
"I can definitely save him, but from what you're saying, you're not going to save him?" Sir System retorted.
"No, if we can guarantee that this old man is someone who values kindness and not an ingrate, then it's better to save him." Fang Ning looked at the tree root again and said thoughtfully, "I have a hunch that he may be of great help to the transformation of this world, and in the future, he will also be of great help to us."
"Don't worry, if he's an ingrate, that's great. I was just worrying about where to find the ten billion experience points I spent …" Sir System said nonchalantly.
"Look at you, you don't even know the most basic Law of Energy Conservation. You're really ignorant and incompetent." Fang Ning immediately gave Sir System another blow.
Sir System was dumbfounded. "What are you talking about now? I really don't understand."
"I'm saying that the experience points you get from killing him will definitely not be more than the experience points you'll need to resurrect him, unless you don't use experience points to resurrect him. Otherwise, you can farm experience points infinitely … "Fang Ning said disdainfully.
"Uh, I don't understand, but I think it's awesome. Do we still want to take a gamble? "Sir System was uncertain.
"How many experience points do you think it'll take to resurrect him?" Fang Ning asked.
"This guy's strength is at the peak of Lake-level, and he still has a broken body. If we want to resurrect him, it'll take at least a billion experience points …" Sir System gave a number.
"Uh, that's a lot. No wonder you're so hesitant. Forget it, we'll take a gamble. This guy is also an important person in the USA. If we build a good relationship with him, it'll be very useful in the future. "Fang Ning finally decided.
"Hmm, this is your decision. If the gamble fails, you'll have to bear the consequences." Sir System threw out a sentence and slipped away.
"F * ck, no wonder you wanted me to make the final decision. You're really a simple and honest System …" Fang Ning said indignantly.
Sir System did not reply.
…
After a while, William saw Vigilante A wave his hand. A green light flashed and landed on the broken root.
After the broken root was shrouded by the green light, it immediately sprouted and grew rapidly. A new tree was about to grow.
William's eyes widened as he watched this miraculous scene. His heart was filled with excitement.
This was because he understood that the other party really had this ability. In that case, his lifelong regret could finally be made up for in this era of miracles.
About an hour later, the giant tree from before had been reborn!
If he had not seen it with his own eyes, William would never have believed it. Although he was the so-called Son of God, he knew that God's favorite miracle was the so-called "resurrection" …
Not long after the giant tree was formed, an old man's face appeared on the new green bark.
His eyes were clear, like an innocent child. It was a completely different person from the bloodthirsty and red eyes from before.
"Thank you, honorable Mr. Pharos of the East." The old man's face was full of shame. "I've been wholeheartedly practicing the Path of Nature, but I've unknowingly forgotten that nature, which seems to contain and nurture all things, has a violent, bloodthirsty, and destructive side. Breaking away from humanity and focusing on the Path of Nature is an incomplete path. Thank you for saving me. Thank you even more for letting me understand the true Path of Nature, giving me the opportunity to revise my own path. "
"That's very good. It just so happens that I'm about to execute a technique to change the heavens and the earth, and I want to transform this bloody place of slaughter into a place of birds and flowers. Are you willing to lend me a hand?" Vigilante A nodded.
"I'm willing to help." The old man's face on the bark was full of gratitude.
"Not bad. Your Mandarin is at least level 8 …" Vigilante A said seriously.
"…" William and the old man looked at each other and smiled at the same time.
…
Three days later, on a hill filled with greenery.
Qiao Anping and the others were sitting at the foot of the hill, looking up at the four mighty beings who were discussing important matters on the hill.
On the hill were the Bodhisattva Spirit King, River God of the Sky River, the Venerable Dragon God, Tianjing Fawang …
In the past, Old Master Ma could still be ranked among the four powerhouses and show his face at important occasions. Now, he obviously could not keep up. No wonder he wanted to train his son to take over.
"The Venerable One is truly compassionate. If such a place of massacre that can quickly increase power was in the hands of evil people, in less than a few hundred years, their magical powers would definitely increase by leaps and bounds, just like a god or a Buddha. However, the Venerable One wants to change it into a place of compassion. Such a broad-mindedness, in the Heavens and Earth, can be counted on one's fingers. "Tianjing Fawang praised.
He came from the Upper Realm, so he was most aware of the temptation of power. Even many Buddhas who had achieved enlightenment would also become demons because of it.
"Mr. Rich Boss, this old monk is right. Why do you think I want to change it? Wouldn't it be better to keep it and farm experience points every day?" Sir System suddenly regretted.
"You're so silly, really. Why don't you think about it, do you think it'll be so kind as to let us farm experience points for free? Let me tell you, whatever you eat from it, you'll have to repay it tenfold or a hundredfold … When that time comes, if it forces us to slaughter the innocent and destroy the world's living beings to harvest souls, are you still going to do it? As for playing tricks with this kind of existence, feigning civility and only taking power without doing anything in the end, that won't work. The only way is to face it head-on. "
