The Master of the Strange Realm

A few seconds later, including the old elf who covered his ears, the four heard the voice that allowed them to turn back.

Looking behind him, Jenkins was still standing there, his face slightly red, and the barefoot silver-haired girl looked nonchalant, squinting her eyes and seemed to be suddenly interested in the thick fog around her.

Chapter 2149 World Tree Evolution

"Tsk tsk tsk~"

Seeing this scene, the old elf suddenly made such a sound, and was then stared at fiercely by the "extremely vicious" ancient silver dragon.

In short, after the silver dragon's action for a few seconds, Jenkins' last bubble was indeed filled. The newly emerged blue alien ability is [Dragon Kiss Poison], which roughly means that Jenkins can release a special toxin through the contact of his lips. Actively stimulate, there is no need to worry about becoming the source of poison.

This toxin can only come from ancient dragons and can only be produced by ancient dragons, but it has miraculous effects on all races. When the dragon poison takes effect, the poisoned person will irreversibly turn into a gray stone sculpture within half an hour to an hour.

According to the information obtained when Jenkins gained the ability, this dragon poison is related to the origin of dragons. It's a pity that there is no further information, otherwise Jenkins might be able to completely clarify the origin of the dragon in this world.

After obtaining the dragon-related abilities, the ceremony officially began.

The ritual base is a rare square. The symbol of the elves is Jenkins himself, so he stands at the eastern vertex of the square. At the same time, the east direction itself also means "leader" in mysticism.

After the ceremony was activated, the light generated by the slight movement of the ground connected the green light on the surface of Jenkins' body. The ability light spot of [World Tree Seedling] lit up first, and then a very thin green line was generated, which was connected with the light spot of [Four Seasons].

This is a phenomenon of chain ability formation. Before Jenkins completed the entire ceremony, it was indeed very similar to a certain chain ability.

As the eastern part of the ritual base was completely lit up with emerald green light, a warm east wind blew under the dark sky with ashes. This wind dispelled the burnt smell of the thick fog and made several people on the side smell the smell of vitality.

"Spring."

He said simply, and then walked along the straight edge of the square ritual base to the southern vertex. The emerald green light spread towards the south as he walked, but it did not completely light up the south.

The south corresponds to summer, and Anastasia stood at the top waiting for Jenkins to arrive. The two met together, and then the bright blue light lit up the southern part of the ceremony. There seemed to be the sound of a giant dragon roaring in the sky-high blue light. Behind Jenkins, the shadow of the silver dragon flashed by, and at the same time, the blue [Dragon Kiss Poison] in his ability light spot also lit up, and the extremely fine light also linked this ability with [Four Seasons].

The south wind whistled, and the extremely hot summer wind with a bit of the damp smell of the rainy season was incompatible with the doomsday scene at this moment. But it also blew away the thick fog in the south of the ceremony, connecting the blue light in the south with the green light in the east.

"Summer."

He said, then nodded to the silver dragon, and then walked straight along the edge of the ceremony to the western top.

The west corresponds to autumn, and at the top of the ceremony stood a huge Titan stone statue. Although the Titan's soul was defeated in the battle with Jenkins, the stone statue is indeed the Titan's body, and it still contains the Titan's power.

Originally, the church planned to study the stone statue carefully, but now it has become a bargain for Jenkins.

Jenkins came to the foot of the stone statue and reached out to touch it. As the rough touch was transmitted from the palm to the brain, a fierce red light lit up, illuminating the west of the ceremony.

The red light spread to the entire stone statue, and the autumn wind blew, blowing away the thick fog in the west. The wind carried the smell of a good harvest but corruption.

The ability light of [Titan Power] lit up, connected with [Four Seasons], which is the third ability.

"Autumn."

He said, but hesitated and did not take a step.

At the northern apex of the ceremony, Chocolate was squatting there looking at Jenkins. In a dark environment, the eyes of cats and dogs will have a similar glowing phenomenon, but the light in Chocolate's eyes is not scary at all. It looks pitiful at the moment, and looks at Mr. Writer not far away uncomfortably.

Alexia curled her lips, Miss Bronion showed an interested expression, Silver Dragon raised his eyebrows but was also interested in this scene, the old elf seemed to be observing the ceremony but was actually sneaking a peek at Jenkins at this time. Only Miss Audrey, who had not yet figured out all this, was still hesitant, thinking that Jenkins' pause was because of a problem with the ceremony.

After a moment, he still walked along the straight line outside the ritual array to the northern vertex. While bending down to pick up his cat, the ability of [Cat's Grace] lit up and was connected with [Four Seasons].

[Cat's Grace] is a red fighting ability, which should have lit up red, but as Jenkins came into contact with chocolate, the cold and sharp northern winter wind blew, and the black spiritual light representing the color of sin directly broke through the thick fog.

At the four corners of the ceremony, the green, blue, red and black lights intertwined, completely expelling the thick fog in all directions.

"Winter."

Jenkins did not look at the cat in his arms, who was rolling and acting coquettish with his belly exposed, but walked back to the eastern vertex from the northern vertex of the ceremony.

In this way, he completely circled the square, and the four vertices represented the colors of the four seasons. Finally, after he returned to the eastern vertex, they completely merged together. Jenkins also walked into the center of the ceremony from the east, holding the cat.

This location is easy to find, because the Four Seasons Fruit Plate, one of the core items of the ritual, is placed there. As Jenkins approaches, it connects the power of the four seasons in its four directions and incorporates those spirits into it, but no fruit is formed.

The fruit plate integrates the power of the four seasons, and then plays its original role, that is, offering sacrifice to the Great One. Those lights and the fruit plate itself are re-integrated, tempered and condensed by the fruit plate, and then given a new form of expression and integrated into the heart of Jenkins.

The fruit plate did not become Jenkins' heart, but provided him with the ability to absorb the spiritual light representing the four seasons.

The terrible spiritual light was infused into his body and accepted by his soul and body. The five abilities that lit up were connected together, but they were still not enough to form the "four-in-one" that Jenkins wanted.

[Four Seasons] originated from [Cycle], and [Cycle] was the harvest of Jenkins after listening to the whispers twelve times, representing his encounter with the immortal existence and his own understanding of time.

If you want to rely on the four seasons to nourish the world tree, these powers alone are not enough.

"Blood source."

He activated an ability again. His body was already in a special state of instability due to the influence of "blood". The use of blood ability directly linked him to the flesh and blood ability hidden in his body because he absorbed the spirit of the monster on the third floor of the hospital.

The bloody light lit up, and the strong smell of blood that seemed to drip from the air made the old elf frown.

Jenkins' blood boiled again. As his body temperature rose rapidly, every inch of his muscles felt like being torn apart, as if he could no longer maintain the human form of Jenkins and was about to fall into a pile of meat paste.

This feeling was very familiar, so he activated an ability again:

"Malicious transformation!"

This transformation was not to turn into a gray mouse, but to visualize the appearance of the world tree that appeared on the island in the middle of the lake in his mind.

The four-color light completely blurred the vision of the people standing on the edge of the ceremony. They could only see the figure of Jenkins in the light.

The powerful spirit and energy fluctuations that seemed to break the space forced them to retreat continuously. Faintly, the elf first saw the shadow of the world tree appearing above Jenkins' head:

"Not enough!"

The old elf wanted to rush into the ceremony to help Jenkins, but was stopped by Miss Audrey. He roared at Jenkins with almost all his strength. Witnessing the growth of the world tree has an extraordinary effect on the life of ordinary elves.

"It's really not enough, what else is missing?"

Silver Dragon muttered nervously on the side.

"Evolution!"

Alexia suddenly said, and then everyone saw Jenkins in the light and shadow seemed to hold something in his hand and insert it into his heart, and then gently turned it-

Click~The lock was opened.

As if time was flowing backwards, the four-color light and the wind of the four seasons retreated back to the four vertices of the ceremony in a concrete form, and then gathered in the center of the ceremony.

In the hazy light, the lush little tree stood in the center of the ritual base, the branches and leaves swayed gently with the wind, the branches were engraved with the rings of time, and Chocolate lay under the tree to rest.

When the breeze blew, everything changed.

Spring arrives, the tree grows new branches and new leaves, the cat flutters butterflies under the tree;

Summer arrives, the tree's crown is lush and green, the ground is mottled with traces of tree shadows, the cat lies in the shade under the tree and takes a nap;

Autumn arrives, the leaves on the tree are sparse, but the ground is covered with golden leaves, the cat raises its paws to knock on the crisp leaves and listen to the strange sound;

Winter arrives, the tree has no branches and leaves, but is covered with silver, the cat looks up at the falling snow obediently, looking forward to the arrival of another year.

Year after year, flowers fade, the sun rises and sets, the moon waxes and wanes. A moment is a thousand years, and a thousand years seems to be just a moment.

The light and shadow of the four seasons make the tree and the cat a little illusory, and the passing time and the afterimage of time make them gradually blurred. The years have not left too many traces on them, because they have always been there, always together.

It was only a fraction of a second, like a unicorn turning into lightning and passing through the gaps in the mountains, but Alexia, the old elf, Miss Audrey, Miss Bronion, and Anastasia, who were watching this scene, seemed to see the full mottled years.

They blinked their eyes, and the phantoms of the trees and cats disappeared, and the strange light gradually subsided. Standing in the center of the ritual array was Jenkins holding chocolate. He was still the same, with the same height, appearance, skin color, and even eye color.

But the elves, silver dragons, and demigods who looked at him could all feel that if in their eyes, Jenkins was only vaguely alienated and different from others, then after this moment, Jenkins was no longer like a mortal at all. Looking at him straight was like looking up at Him. Only the silver dragon had experienced this strange feeling in the long years.

As he breathed, the rise and fall of his chest seemed to be the rhythm of nature, and the waving of his arms was exactly the same as the melody of the wind. The movement of the corners of his mouth reminded the old elf of the moment when the flowers bloomed in the flower forest, and the way he walked made the two fortune-tellers see that the thread of fate was touched casually.

Chapter 2150 Jenkins and the Cat

"World Tree."

Jenkins smiled at them, and the old elf closed his eyes, tears streaming down his face. Of all the people present, only the old elf had seen the real World Tree, so he was the only one who had the deepest impression of this scene.

Jenkins left the ritual matrix where the light disappeared, and placed the chocolate with closed eyes, stiff body, motionless, as if he wanted to pretend that he was a doll, on top of Alexia's head:

"[Blood Origin] [Power of Titan] [Elegance of Cat] [Malicious Transformation] [Four Seasons] [Dragon Kiss Poison], these six abilities have all disappeared, and no new abilities have appeared or changed."

He said to Alexia. It was clear that his voice vibrated the air, but Alexia felt the pressure inexplicably.

Of course, the pressure disappeared in just an instant. Jenkins was still Jenkins in front of him, and this remained unchanged.

Alexia raised her hand to steady the motionless cat above her head:

"So you have emptied out six bubbles, which is a good thing. Those abilities were absorbed by the World Tree seedlings and used as nutrients for the growth of the World Tree? The four seasons feed the World Tree, which is even more of a good phenomenon. Your body is finally able to forcefully interact with the world tree. The souls are matched...but are you a human or a tree now?"

The short lady said suspiciously, but she was actually joking.

Jenkins smiled and hugged her:

"what you think?"

Alexia took a deep breath in Jenkins' arms, with a slight blush on her face:

"Probably still human."

Then he nodded to the elves, dragons and soothsayers:

"The things here have been dealt with for the time being. The growth of World Tree is enough for me to face the disaster in the blood moon. Now I have to go to the Sage Church to do some things, and then return to the tower. Time is running out. Someone is willing Take me for a ride?"

Everyone was silent because clearly Jenkins shouldn't leave now and he hadn't said anything about his cat yet. Everyone present knew that Jenkins had always believed that the cat he was suspicious of was a normal young pet cat, and just now he had obviously used the power of the moon civet chocolate, which meant that Jenkins already knew the facts.

So he should say something now instead of thinking about leaving as soon as possible.

But Jenkins seemed to know nothing and looked at them with a normal expression.

Elves can't fly, so he was glad that this matter had nothing to do with him. The two fortune tellers hadn't made up their minds yet and observed Jenkins' expression suspiciously.

"Let me do it."

Silver Dragon broke the strange silence in time. She saw what Jenkins was thinking, so she took Jenkins' hand. Nodding to Alexia, the silver dragon then pulled Jenkins and flew into the dark sky filled with ash.

"Huh? Why didn't you take Jenkins back?"

Miss Audrey asked doubtfully.

"Audrey, don't you understand yet?"

Miss Bronyance felt sorry for her student:

"He just didn't want to face it."

"What to face...I understand."

Miss Audrey saw the cat above Alexia. The cat was still lying motionless on Alexia's silky hair, but it had already opened one eye and peeked around, trying to make sure Jenkins was really gone. .

"When did he find out?"

The fortune teller asked again.

“When I first adopted Chocolat a year ago, I definitely didn’t know;

When chocolate gradually showed its power half a year ago, I probably didn’t know it;

It was hard not to know when Chocolate frequently fell into my dreams a few months ago;

Twice appearing in front of Jenkins as a girl with a fish-shaped hairpin, she definitely knows;

If he said he didn't know when he went through the previous floors of the tower, would you believe it? "

Hearing Alexia say this, the cat above her head opened her eyes completely, moved her body to find a better lying position, and then let out a plaintive "meow~" to express her feelings.

"For someone like him, when he lives alone, he will carefully check whether the hair on the door has moved when he comes home. How could he ignore the abnormality of the cat around him? Therefore, Hathaway and I both agree that Jenkins has a serious condition. psychological problems.”

When Chocolate was not in the mood to stretch out her paws, Alexia gently touched it a few times.

"What psychological problem?"

The old elf asked curiously. He really didn't see it. In his opinion, Jenkins was a mentally normal elf.

"Solitary, not trusting anyone, persecuted paranoia, selective intermittent depression."

Alexia counted them one by one.

"Jenkins is depressed?"

Miss Audrey didn't believe this conclusion at all.

"The manifestations of depression are not just the inability to smile. If you observe carefully, you will find that when no one is with him, Jenkins often does one thing expressionlessly. This cannot be strictly defined as Depression, but I believe this is part of Jenkins' selective intermittent depression."

Alexia explained, trying to restore Jenkins' poor mental state based on the observations of other ladies:
