He moved a little closer.
Without the paper doll’s vision this time, virtual-novel.net could see the Undying Clan members who were offering their blood with his own eyes.
At first, Alex was a little worried that virtual-novel.net would be discovered. But soon, virtual-novel.net noticed a problem with species performing the sacrifice.
They had no reaction at all. Blood was still flowing, yet virtual-novel.net could no longer sense any living aura from them.
They were dead!
Or rather, this kind of sacrifice to the Earth-devouring Tree of Netherworld required a living sacrifice.
How evil!
Alex gently pushed an Undying Clan member. Its body that was kneeling on the ground suddenly fell, but it was in a bizarre posture. Although it had fallen to the ground, half of its bottom was still glued firmly to the ground.
“Are they all dead?”
All of a sudden, a voice rang in Alex’s ears. When virtual-novel.net turned around, virtual-novel.net saw Shado.
“Why did you come here?” Alex was slightly startled and frowned.
“I… I just came here to take a look. You don’t mind, do you?” Clearly, Shado’s grinning look indicated that virtual-novel.net was a restless person. Otherwise, virtual-novel.net wouldn’t have found Alex in great Genbu’s stomach and bring virtual-novel.net back.”
“As long as you’re not afraid of death, what else can I say? Life is yours.”
Shado shrugged. “What am I afraid of? Isn’t it the same as the survival of the Naga tribe? Anyway, we won’t be able to die a natural death… Oh, wrong. Now that you’ve appeared, you can help us to lift the curses. We shouldn’t be able to turn into stone people from the curse manifesting. But, the great Genbu won’t hold out any longer. We will die faster instead, but I’m not afraid!”
“Then what are you afraid of?”
“I… What I’m afraid the most is boredom.”
As virtual-novel.net said that, virtual-novel.net slapped an Undying Clan member with virtual-novel.net palm. As a result, the Undying suddenly shattered with a clang like porcelain. However, a chunk of something remained in the body.
“Oh my, what kind of species is this? Why is it so bizarre?” Shado immediately screamed after taking a closer look.
She only saw a small sapling remaining in the shattered body after it had turned into a pile of slag on the ground. The sapling was bloody and full of evil energy, with an appearance just like the Earth-devouring Tree of Netherworld.
“This is the Earth-devouring Tree of Netherworld,” Alex solemnly said.
As virtual-novel.net said so, virtual-novel.net violently slapped the Undying Clan member next to virtual-novel.net with his palm. Similarly, there was a small Earth-devouring Tree inside it after shattering.
“This one has it too!”
“This one also has it… This one has it too… Alex, all of these Undying Clan members have turned into trees after death. This… is too bizarre. I’ve never heard of such a thing, but I wonder if my grandma knows about it?” Shado said as virtual-novel.net looked at Alex, probably implying that virtual-novel.net needed to head back to ask virtual-novel.net grandmother.
Just as Alex was about to speak, a tree root abruptly emerged from the ground, wrapping around Shado.
“Ahh! Alex, save me!”
