Sitting in the steam car, Lucius pinched the seed of the Ancient Tree of Life and put it in his palm to look at it carefully, as if he wanted to see what was so special about this seed.

However, after looking at it for a long time, I found that the seed was not anything special, it looked like it was just an ordinary seed.

Reimer and Shabaja stood behind Rucius, their eyes never off the seed.

It can be seen that the two of them are full of covetousness for the seed of the ancient tree of life.

It's just that after going through so many tribulations, the two of them already know in their hearts that in this sea of sand, without the help of Lucius, the two of them can be said to be unable to move an inch.

With Lucius, at least they can be assured of water to drink, plenty of food, and no fear of danger in the sea of sand.

Seeing that there was no hope of seizing the seeds of the Ancient Tree of Life, Saba Ja simply stopped coveting it, retracted his gaze and sat down beside Lucius, and said with some doubts: "Since the oldest Ancient Tree of Life has died, is the other twelve ancient trees also dead?"

Shabaja's words caught Reimer's attention, and Reimer sat down at the table.

After thinking about it, Reimer denied Shabaja's speculation: "No, I don't think it's possible, the vitality of the ancient tree of life is extremely strong, this ancient tree is too old after all, if the other ancient trees are young, I am afraid they may not have died, maybe in the sea of sand, there will really be an oasis." ”

Lucius didn't interject, but looked out the window at the sea of sand, staring at the yellow sand in the sky, and the towns that had long since turned to sand along the way.

After a long time, he sighed and said: "I'm afraid that other ancient trees may not be able to resist the curse of the gods outside, and you have also seen that the empire of the past has been continuously eroded by the curse, even my steam car, which is engraved with complex divine patterns on the surface." It will still be corrupted by the curse. ”

Shabaja was taken aback when he heard this, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Do you mean that the other twelve ancient trees no longer exist?"

Lucius nodded: "Yes, the steam car has only been driving in the sea of sand for so many days, and it has already been eroded by the curse, and now it has to be cleaned once a day to recoat the body. ”

As he spoke, Lucius pinched the seed in his hand and said, "These ancient trees of life have been stored in the sea of sand for so long. Constantly being eroded by the curse, after so many years of erosion, I am afraid that it may not be able to survive, and may have been swallowed by the curse. ”

Hearing this, Reimer argued with great certainty: "No, no, those are the ancient trees of life, they are the source of life, it is impossible. It can't be corrupted by the curse. ”

Lucius handed the seed to Reimer and said to Reimer in a deep voice, "See for yourself, I know you want this seed." If you want, take it. ”

Seeing that Lucius actually handed the seeds of the Ancient Tree of Life to him, Reimer was suddenly a little surprised.

Shabaja next to him looked very anxious. I wanted to reach out and snatch the seed, but I didn't have the guts, I could only watch. Reimer held the seed in his hand.

When Reimer got the seed, the excitement on his face disappeared in an instant, and he looked at the seed in his palm with a shocked face, and asked Lucius incredulously: "Why, how did this happen? Why did it become like this? You, you, you must have changed the bag." ”

Lucius smiled and said nothing, reaching out to take the seed back.

Holding the seed, he said to Reimer and Shabaja, "Do you think I made the bag? Hehe, I can tell you, this is the seed." ”

Reimer was a little unconvinced: "Impossible, why is there not even a breath of life in this seed?"

Shabaja was startled when he heard this, and reached out to take the seed from Lucius's hand.

After a moment of careful sensing, he was also dumbfounded, because it was just like what Reimer said.

There was no breath of life in the seeds, and the seeds that had been condensed from the essence of the ancient tree of life were like an ordinary seed in their hands.

Watching Shabaja put the seed down, Lucius continued: "It's very simple, the life force of the Ancient Tree of Life has long been consumed in resisting the curse. ”

Lucius looked at the two of them with gloomy expressions, smiled and said, "So, don't get your hopes up. ”

Still a little unconvinced, Reimer said, "Could it be that the empire is doomed to destruction?"

Lucius shook his head: "No, since the King of Hearts has prepared an inheritance for you, then I think the King of Hearts will definitely be prepared, thinking that if we enter the imperial capital, we may still be able to find a way to revive the empire, of course, you may still encounter a lot of trouble." ”

Lecius looked like an elder, talking eloquently in front of Reimer and Shabaja, and the two of them were a little unable to argue.

Without waiting for Reimer and Shabaja to respond, Lucius stood up and walked to the window of the carriage.

Looking at the yellow sand outside, he said in a deep voice: "Actually, we have a lot to face. ”

Reimer and Shabaja glanced at each other, both of them understood what Lucius meant, but Reimer said very confidently: "As long as the empire can be revived, those guys are just a bunch of clowns, sooner or later I will kill them all." ”

Hearing this, Lucius sneered and said, "You are very confident, but this time, the enemy we are facing is very unusual, I think, the two of the black spear and the prism diamond have also entered the sea of sand." ”

This time, Reimer did not speak confidently anymore, but wilted all at once.

Reimer knew very well in his heart that the appearance of the black spear and the prism diamond meant that the Holy See was about to enter the sea of sand.

With the intervention of the Holy See, I am afraid that many things may not be simple, after all, the strength of the Holy See is very strong.

And as a former genius of the Holy See, Reimer knows very well that in the Holy See, there are also machines.

On the surface, the Holy See regards machinery as heresy, but in fact, the entire Dawning Mountain Range of the Holy See is full of various mechanical devices, and the most powerful knights of the Holy See are equipped with mechanical equipment.

If the Holy See makes a move, those paladins with mechanical equipment are indeed a group of terrible guys.

For the first time, Reimer was completely unconfident, and when facing the Holy See, especially when he thought of the terrible Pope of the Holy See, anything could happen.

Looking at Remer's face, Lucius suddenly smiled and said: "Hahaha, Remer, do you know, your face is ugly now, it seems that you know the strength of the Holy See, you are afraid in your heart, right?

Hearing Lucius mention the Mechanical Knights, Reimer was taken aback, looked at Lucius incredulously and said, "You, you actually know about the Mechanical Knights?"

Instead, Reimer shook his head helplessly: "The Mechanical Knights are too powerful, in the face of such a behemoth, I really don't have the slightest certainty, I'm afraid that when the time comes, I can only count on you, hoping that your machinery can defeat the Holy See's mechanical weapons." ”

Lucius stared at the yellow sand outside the car window and said with great firmness, "Don't worry, I'll defeat those guys who steal technology." (To be continued......)
