Chapter 552 The Big Tree Among the Settlements
The journey took longer than expected, and William also started another topic in the carriage, a topic that the driver could not directly disclose.

"Do you have any guesses or conjectures about the "malignant disease" corresponding to the tenth abyss? "

For this kind of question, Jin put his head in his hands and leaned back, "Isn't William your favorite thing that requires reasoning and analysis? I don't want to think about it, anyway, it doesn't have much to do with me."

Although Jin refused to participate, the Lord Price, who was sitting across from him, looked serious.
"Hmm... The influence of the abyss explained by the coachman is related to copying, and it is copying the most prominent characteristics of the individual. If my memory is correct, the basic unit of the mask condensed on my face at that time was hair.

I can clearly feel the touch when tearing off the mask, very similar to my hair, even better in 'grounding'.

In addition, the hair engraved from the abyss can be condensed into an absolute whole. If I didn't use the moon spot to burn off a part of the mask to disrupt the whole, I couldn't tear it off with my strength alone. "

"Replicating the most prominent characteristics of an individual, not only can it be perfectly reproduced or even better in some aspects, but it also has integrity... Is it a special replicating virus?

I don't know what kind of mask will appear on my "condensed face". "

After a brief conversation, William already had a general direction, sat cross-legged, and focused on his own state.

Those abyss substances wandering in his body that were indulged by him have multiplied during this period of time, and now they can be suppressed exactly as the coachman said.

Forcing the abyss material to fail to replicate normally in the body, it is forced to flow out from the face to congeal the face.

But...William didn't do that,
Intuition told him not to limit the abyss prematurely, and must indulge long enough to let these things understand his body well enough.

He even made a bolder move, releasing the restriction of the 'umbilical cord' in the neck, allowing the abyssal substances to officially enter the brain area.

This approach woke up Yi Chen who was sleeping in the aquarium. After all, the epileptic brain is the center of open source, and if something goes wrong, it may leave permanent sequelae.

"William, you're getting crazy. ’Yi Chen’s voice came out.

"crazy?No... this can only be called a rational gamble at best, aren't we the duke's customers?It's normal to take a gamble.

Besides, there is still the heavy insurance of the little grape in the head. If the abyss virus wants to attack the epilepsy virus, it can just light up the evil sun as soon as possible.

According to my inference and feeling, the so-called "Noodles" is by no means as simple as what the coachman said, or the coachman deliberately reserved it to increase my failure rate.

"Condensed face" is not just a simple suppression. If the abyss content in the body is not enough, the final mask will inevitably be impure, and even the most basic form construction cannot be done.

Since accepting the abyss, one must accept it to the end, even the flesh is reluctant to sacrifice, so why talk about pilgrimage?
That's why I made such a gamble, using the flesh as a sacrifice and also as a container to breed the abyssal matter to the greatest extent... Especially the torso representing [new life] is definitely an excellent place to nourish abyssal pathogens.

When the abyssal pathogen in my body replicates and grows to the maximum, that is the best time to congeal. 』

"William, you are getting better and better, call me again when it is critical." 』

……

【Abysmer Settlement】

Centered on a strange big tree that transcends the conventional concept, a large number of bungalows are built around it.
There are a large number of black candles scattered among the settlements. It can be said that there is one candle in each bungalow.
The appearance and structure of the entire village are illuminated by dark light. Tens of thousands of intricate bungalows almost form a labyrinth structure. If you want to reach the big tree area in the center, you have to bypass the lengthy bungalow area.

The carriage stopped at an entrance outside the settlement.

William also saw the big tree in the center of the settlement at a glance,
"people?"

The big tree in William's eyes is more like a bloated giant with bark all over the body. It can be clearly seen that a distorted head grows on the top.

Six pairs of thymus structures hang in the middle of the trunk, constantly flowing out pathogenic juice.

The branch is the extended version of the arm, and the arm has been copied a lot, showing a flourishing shape with luxuriant branches and leaves, blossoming and bearing fruit.

It's just that the fruit on it is not the tree itself, but artificially hung up.

Those 'treasure hunters' who come to the darkest place to explore, as long as they don't choose to accept the abyss, the final result is to hang on it, and the 'rope' wrapped around the neck of the corpse is the capillary between the arms, which supplements the tree. Nutrition.

The coachman also simply explained:

"The guardian of the abyss - the black treant. Lord Karimus, he is the most powerful visitor in history, not only achieved the final pilgrimage, but even communicated with the abyss for a long time.

Rumor has it that he took the initiative to choose to serve the abyss and become the caretaker, and the [Road to Pilgrimage] is right under him..."

"Sure enough, it was transformed by the sick."

"I wish you good luck, outsider~ I hope you can go far enough, and even complete the final pilgrimage, so that my commission will be high enough.

By the way, I do not recommend that your friends set foot in the settlement. They have not accepted that once they enter the abyss, they will be regarded as "intruders". Although you are very powerful, you definitely cannot stand the crowd here.

And Lord Karimus is by no means easy to mess with.

Farewell, brave outsider. "

As the coachman left, William and the others stopped at the gate of the settlement.

"Okay, let's say goodbye here, thank you for accompanying me here.

If you still can't see me after the exploration, or if you need to evacuate in case of crisis, go directly to Mouse City and wait for me.

If you wait too long, go about your own business.

I will definitely get out of the abyss, but I can't estimate how long it will take. "

Thirteen's small hands kept rubbing in front of her face, but just as she was about to say something, she was pulled away by Jin's arm.
"Okay, let's go! Don't chatter here, and don't bother William... right, William~ I can see that you can't wait to go to the depths, stop suppressing and pretending, hurry up Go deep.

If you die here, I will look down on you. "

"Okay, I will try not to die." William made a gentleman's salute to Jin and looked at the Lord of the Mouse City, "Mr. Price, let's wait until I come out to discuss our agreement, and you must follow me." Head to 'the place' for the best food in the whole Old World."

"Ah."

William didn't stop, turned his back and waved goodbye to everyone, and stepped into this Yuanmin settlement alone.

From the very first walk to jogging, and then to the final fast run... As Kim said, he couldn't wait!Now that the existence of the tenth abyss has been verified, and the road and method leading to the tenth abyss have been determined, all that remains is to finish the journey.

He is eager to see what his [path] hidden in the abyss is like, and he is eager to reach a higher level and return to Zion.

Ignoring the unknown Abyssal residents around him, William quickly circled to the center, in front of the guardian of the abyss - the black treant, Lord Karimus.

A large number of Yuanmin are kneeling in the [Big Tree Square] praying in the abyss, trying to complete the "congealing face" under the tree.

William found an empty space in the outermost circle, sat down on the ground, and joined it...
