What's wrong with the doctor is so annoying

The metal boots stepped on the soft grass, and the blooming flowers tilted and swayed with petals and branches, as if welcoming visitors.The breeze blows past, the dense trees rustle, and the unique fresh air of plants fills the world, making people feel refreshed.

But Aphrodite, who passed by here, did not feel any joy, but tensed his nerves. He held the bright red rose in his mouth, nibbling the emerald green stem with the tip of his teeth impatiently, and a few drops of bitter The juice comes out and is quickly absorbed by the tongue.

no response.

The comfortable breeze surrounds the surroundings, the rustling of the branches and leaves of the trees can be heard everywhere, and the fresh petals are falling from the canopy. Only the information received by the five senses tells me that the scenery in front of me cannot be more in line with the definition of "Xanadu"—— — There is no strife, no danger, and no death.

But such a beautiful scene cannot deceive Aphrodite's innate instinct. The red rose in his mouth, which is used as a medium for reading minds, is spreading bioelectricity that only plants can receive, but after such a long time, No reply.In order to confirm this fact, he casually folded off a cluster of peach blossoms hanging down the side of his face, and folded it into several sections with a method that could not be called gentle. Let go again, and let the broken petals fall pitifully in the wind.

Aphrodite rubbed the pollen and sap left on his fingertips, and his brows frowned even more—the consciousness fluctuations released by plants when facing disasters are very violent, which is equivalent to the involuntary movement of human beings when they are hurt. Screaming, but after such a toss just now, I still haven't received any feedback.

No life response.

Aphrodite has fallen into a rare mild anxiety. He has become accustomed to finding out the situation immediately through the plant's mind-reading ability every time he goes to a strange place. On the earth, plants are widely distributed and their vitality is tenacious, which is beyond the reach of human beings. It is imagined that even under extreme natural conditions where no grass seems to grow, plants can still store and breed new life through means such as roots buried deep in the ground and spores floating in the air.

But the underworld is a place without life, which means that the advantage of reading the latest information through the live environment is gone. This is very dangerous, but there is no way out, and we must move forward.

Along the way, the vegetation density became thinner and sparser at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon there were only some low plants that could cover the feet. Aphrodite recognized at a glance that almost all of them were medicinal plants , a considerable part of them are the golden spike flowers, a specialty of the underworld. It stands to reason that the underworld has a strong breath of death. The blooming flowers should have a deep purple and black luster, but the flowers that catch the eye are all golden yellow.

Among the endless flat flowers, the isolated banyan tree looks very abrupt.Seen from a distance, a huge number of branches form a thick emerald green canopy, a large number of aerial roots hang down from the dense crown leaves, and the soil layer under the feet is also arched crookedly by the vigorous roots.

Aphrodite pondered for a moment, walked into the shadow of the tree crown, kept pushing aside the drooping branches and leaves and a large number of aerial roots like a curtain, walked to the main trunk and stood still, twirling a new red rose with his fingertips , inserted it straight into the tree trunk, then closed his eyes, raised his hand, and slowly rubbed his palm against the bark.

After a long period of silence, Aphrodite's consciousness finally caught a slight "jingle" sound, and immediately opened his eyes vigilantly - pure white lilies of the valley had bloomed all over his sight at some point, and the hanging The buds are swaying in the wind, and the voice in my mind is ringing "Ding Ding Dong Dong". Thousands of lily of the valley buds are like wind chimes hanging under the eaves. The breeze blows, and the beads and hollow metal hanging in the center The pipes are struck in sequence, playing a series of clear notes.

Something alive is approaching!Aphrodite flipped his wrist, and a few red roses unceremoniously pierced behind him!

"Alas...!" A cry came, and Aphrodite had already found the direction of the target, and more red roses whizzed out under his call, but before they had time to touch the corner of the visitor's clothes, they fell on the ground. The lily of the valley suddenly grew like crazy, and the seemingly weak and slender flower stems quickly formed a dense and hard cage, firmly protecting the man in the center, and the rose only had time to pierce the barrier formed by the twisted stems of the lily of the valley.

Seeing this, Aphrodite exchanged the red rose in his hand for a piranha rose that is more lethal. Suddenly, a hurried shout came from inside the barrier: "Please don't attack anymore! I have no intention of fighting with you. What's more... these killer plants are too dangerous, they will hurt you!"

"..." Aphrodite did not make the next attack, not because he followed the other party's advice, but because he was a little surprised by what happened in front of him-the magic palace rose nailed to the stem of the lily of the valley was slowly moving. The blood-red color faded until it completely lost its toxicity and killing intent, turning into an ordinary white rose.

He can eliminate the aggressiveness of the Demon Palace Rose with his own strength. He has only met one person in all these years, that is Athena, who is this guy?

Aphrodite temporarily put down his hand: "Report your name and identity."

The lily of the valley barrier was loosened layer by layer amidst the rustling movement, revealing the true face of the caller—a man who seemed to be around 30 to 40 years old, his brows and eyes were already eroded by the years, and his eyes were slightly crimson. The curly and fluffy hair was casually tied with a rubber band and hung on the shoulders. She was tall and thin, which belonged to the typical style of "looking thin when dressed and fleshy when undressed".

Aphrodite didn't care whether the other person was round or flat. Instead, he became a little interested in the white coat that obviously came from modern society: "Are you a doctor?"

"...Yes." The other party smiled slightly, and a small dimple appeared on the corner of his mouth, "My name is Luke, I used to be a doctor, and now I am... the guardian of the sixth prison, the second valley forest hell The one, Tianlixing Dryad."

"...!"

A sea of ​​blood-red roses instantly bloomed at Aphrodite's feet!

Luke glanced around. Most of the lily-of-the-valley bushes had been strangled by rose vines. The range of pure white shrunk sharply, and soon even his feet were surrounded by blooming red roses.But he didn't look flustered at all, he just sighed: "I thought what I said just now is enough to show my sincerity? If you didn't catch me, let me say it again—I don't think of unnecessary conflicts. In addition Let me give you a piece of advice in my own name, these killer plants don't work on me."

As if to prove this sentence, with the place where Luke stood as the center, those roses turned almost transparent silvery white as if they had been splashed with makeup remover.

Aphrodite was about to make a move when he saw this, but his legs were suddenly pulled to a standstill by a strange force. He looked down and saw countless tiny lily-of-the-valley flower stems clinging to the scaly lines of the Pisces golden holy cloth. Planning to climb all the way up, suddenly his face turned black, and the golden halo of the small universe shredded the plants around him. He bent down and grabbed a handful of white roses and pulled them hard, pulling out the roots with mud There are a lot of things, and if you look carefully, the roots of the roses are densely entwined with lily of the valley, which resembles the notorious parasitic plant Sisi.

"This is your ability?" Aphrodite smashed the bouquet of flowers in his hand with a firm grip, and his expression calmed down. He finally got the feedback he wanted from these lily of the valley plants, and his mood improved a lot.

Luke breathed a sigh of relief, he mistakenly thought that the opponent had recognized the reality and gave up the idea of ​​attacking: "These lilies of the valley are the embodiment of my ability, to be precise, it is the talent given to me by the magic star, which can help me control plants defensive and offensive, but I usually use this ability to discern medicinal properties of plants and apply them in the medical field."

Aphrodite didn't answer, but moved his cervical spine slightly, and the bone joints made a crisp "click".

Luke shook his head: "You still haven't given up, but what's the point of this besides wasting life?"

Aphrodite raised his eyebrows: "Oh? What else do you know?"

Luke looked at each other calmly, eyes full of pity and concern, he used to comfort every patient he handled with such eyes: "Your life is entangled with these murderous plants, I can even feel those extremely active plants Cell particles flow in your muscle tissue and blood vessels. They are extremely hungry and thirsty, and their poison is eroding your bones and blood every moment. Now their fusion rate with your body cells is close to 30%. Put them in 3% of ordinary people is already a fatality rate, do your comrades know that you use this dangerous way to increase your strength?"

"You're a little bit wrong." Aphrodite corrected, "The accurate data of the fusion rate is 27.94%. I'm not so stupid that I don't even know my physical condition and rush to the battlefield—this is the end of the conversation, Ming Fighter, if you don't want to fight, get out of my presence immediately."

Luke laughed angrily: "You are the adult with the worst attitude I have ever seen. Could it be that you are so old...Haven't you even received the most basic etiquette education?"

The end of the sentence has not disappeared, the small universes of both sides erupted at the same time, bloody and pure white flying all over the sky soared into the air at an alarming speed, interspersed and strangled, the scent concentration of the magic rose and lily of the valley rose rapidly in a few seconds!

After throwing a row of dagger roses, a large cluster of royal devil roses, and dozens of piranha roses, Aphrodite clicked his tongue. The effect of this kind of attack density like a hail of bullets was not ideal. The fragrance of the lily of the valley offset most of it, and the rest of the pure physical attack was blocked by the lily of the valley stems manipulated by Luke, which failed to deal any effective blow to him, but tore apart the false illusion of the surrounding peach blossoms. Scattered—there is no fertile soil under the lawn, only semi-solidified tar. A large number of dead trees are rooted crookedly here, and their branches are twisted and coiled to reach the sky. If you look closely, you will find that these so-called "trees" "In fact, it is formed by mixing together a large number of distorted souls. The branches stretching to the sky are countless pairs of struggling arms.

Seeing this scene, Luke's expression finally changed: "...what are you doing?"

"I'm just restoring hell to its original state. What have you to be afraid of?" Aphrodite unceremoniously seized the moment when the other party's spirit faltered. The ground under his feet trembled, and a dozen vines as thick as bowls sprang up from the ground. , pulled over unceremoniously, but the target was not Luke, but the huge banyan tree behind him that still stands today.

"You!" Luke finally lost his composure, turned back and went straight to the banyan tree, Tian Lixing's dark clothes clattered and put on his upper body in an instant, he took the blow, but immediately he was killed by more vines Wrapped in death, unable to move, he could only watch as Aphrodite commanded the vines to continue chopping towards the branches of the banyan tree with no expression on his face, until the hard outer skin was smashed to pieces, revealing the soul wrapped in layers. Canthus tearing apart: "Stop! Don't touch him!—"

Aphrodite didn't even bother to care, the vine stirred and dragged the soul out, and the information was read continuously, he couldn't help but took a deep breath, as expected, it was this kind of spiritual saturation that made him feel at ease.

A few seconds later, Aphrodite was finally willing to turn his attention to Luke who was struggling desperately: "This man is called Rugnis, your brother, who served in the army, but suffered from PTSD in the war after retiring, and finally died at home. He killed himself with a gun, because he accidentally turned the washing machine to the highest setting, and the metal fuselage made a 'rumbling' sound and was still shaking violently, which reminded him immediately of the sound of tanks running over the streets on the battlefield. And the movement of machine/gun sweeping/shooting, he realized that he was sick and rushed into the bedroom to take medicine, but he forgot to turn off the power to the washing machine, the noise became louder and louder, he finally collapsed, pulled out the silencer pistol/gun and pointed it at The temple..."

"Shut up!!!" The lily-of-the-valley stem grew wildly, wishing to strangle everything around it!

Aphrodite's cold exposition continued, like a sharp scalpel mercilessly cutting through all the camouflage: "...and you didn't find his body lying in the bedroom until four days later, and no one noticed him When your brother had an accident, you were in the hospital rescuing a group of teenagers who were drunk/suicide/suicide, and one of them had a rare blood type. You had to contact other medical sites urgently to call the inventory, and when you finally got this group The guy who wanted to die was pulled back from the gate of hell, so he had time to go home and take a look... Finally, you took the handle/gun from your brother and pulled the trigger on yourself."

"You just said that this is forest hell, the final destination of suicides. They think they can escape everything after death, but they don't know that it is a sin to injure themselves wantonly-you think that fabricating a paradise with illusions can appease their suffering souls, In fact, you are deluding yourself, there is no soul saved here, including yourself."

"What do you know?! You don't know anything! You can only accuse like this!" Luke finally broke free from the shackles of rose vines, and the wildly growing lily of the valley plants covered the sky with his angry and soaring small universe. "Who doesn't want to live well?! You think it's easy to end your own life?! If you can see even a glimmer of hope while you're alive, who wants to die?!"

The giant net bag made of lily of the valley covered his head and face towards Aphrodite, but the other party's reaction was only to move his fingers.

Luke only had time to feel a chill in his chest, and the roots of the rose had spread wildly along his heart veins, and began to greedily squeeze every drop of body/fluid in this body, and the outside lily of the valley bushes sensed that something was wrong, and immediately turned around Clinging to the master's body in an attempt to provide more strength, his whole body almost merged with the wreckage of the banyan tree trunk.

The power of the enemy's small universe declined, the lily of the valley withered, and the roses bloomed. Aphrodite stepped on the blood-red road paved by the roses of the magic palace and walked to Luke. He reached out and pressed the half-stained bloody rose on his chest: "I I know what you want to say, you think I am a cold-blooded animal, I have no sympathy for suicides, let alone sympathy for suffering people-what is sympathy? It refers to awareness and empathy for external objects, if this is sympathy for The definition of heart, then from the moment I was born, I was forced to share the joys, sorrows, sorrows and joys of all living things, and I am afraid that there are not many people in the world who are more 'compassionate' than me."

"You are a warrior of the underworld, and I am a saint warrior. It is only natural for me to kill you. What does your pain have to do with me?"

After finishing speaking, the vines beside Aphrodite, which had been moving for a long time, scattered and smashed the dead trees that imprisoned the soul one by one, until there was no target, then turned around and rushed towards Luke, and quickly swallowed him and the wreckage of the banyan tree The sound of Mingyi and broken limbs was mixed with the "cracking" sound of the rapid growth of the vines, and soon disappeared completely.

Some of the vines turned around a little too late, and didn’t get any food. They could only lie on the ground and squirm irritably. One of them even turned its direction slowly and crawled towards Aphrodite’s heels. The next moment it was covered by golden The small universe was directly crushed into powder!

Aphrodite stared at the trembling Demon Palace Rose, and the corners of his eyes were filled with evil spirits: "Why, do you feel that you have grown up, dare to show your teeth and claws at me? Get out of here after the task is completed."

The flowers all over the ground disappeared in an instant, and the only few vines retreated as if fleeing for their lives, and quickly disappeared behind Aphrodite. As if he was still not satisfied, he raised his hand through the hanging hair, pressed hard on the back of his neck, and put Those wriggling granulation forcefully pushed back.

The fusion rate rose again, and he couldn't help frowning.

There is no life here, which means that the power lost after using the magic palace rose cannot be replenished by contacting other plants. Their only nourishment is their own flesh and blood.

"...Do you want to rebel? Hmph, you are not qualified yet."

After the destruction of the forest, the world was completely open, and Aphrodite left in the direction of the next area without hesitation.

Under a mess of banyan trees, a small golden snake pushed through the ruins on its head, and jumped out after him a few steps.
