I just want to be free

Chapter 74 Awakening
In the last 30 years, the most famous of the survivor bases is 'Wooden City'.

Legend has it that this is a place chosen by the gods. In the past 30 years, countless zombies have never stepped into this area.
Some people also said that the city actually reached some kind of agreement with the zombies so that the zombies would never attack.

Various speculations have covered the city with a layer of mystery, but the people living in Mucheng know that they are indeed sheltered, and the reason why those zombies dare not approach is because of the wood god in the city lord's mansion.

The older ones all remember the heavy snow that year, and the endless zombies outside the city, the tragic war, the snowflakes all over the sky seemed to drown the city, and finally, the sweetheart of the city lord came on the snow and defeated The Zombie Emperor, but herself, turned into this towering tree, continuing to protect here.

At that time, Mucheng lost a future wife of the city lord, and added a wood god. Even though the zombies passed by, they would never approach Mucheng again. The city owner said that this is the spirit of the wood god who has been guarding the city.

In the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion, a large tree with a diameter of nearly [-] meters rushed to the sky.

Although Mu Yuan turned into a big tree and fell asleep, she still retained a little consciousness for self-defense.
At first, when he finished absorbing the nearby energy, Lin Yu appeared and sprinkled crystal nuclei all over the ground, and then the spiritual spring water kept irrigating, and it didn't take long for him to grow to his current height.

Over the years, it took more than ten years to repair the soul. After the recovery, I checked the seal and found that Li Nuo and the system inside were in a state of pause.

Carefully separate the two of them and seal them, and then look at Li Nuo's soul, it's a system, what a hegemony, it's just that the controller of this game throws a bunch of system seeds, let them devour each other and grow, Even if it is the final winner, I am afraid there will be no future.

Just like raising Gu, thousands of insects eat each other to form Gu. Of these one hundred thousand systems, only one will survive in the end, and this one will be the finished product that the game creator wants. accepted.

But being able to create this game must be an extremely strong being. She is still too weak. She cannot escape even if she escapes. Even if she escapes, it cannot be said that she will not be captured again. As expected, she can only become stronger and become Only when you are strong enough can you control your own destiny.

The first step to becoming stronger starts with Li Nuo and his system.

Assimilate the unconscious Li Nuo little by little, seeing that his system is already shut down, but his own is still useful, so I just need to learn from you first what you are.

After decomposing and absorbing this system, Mu Yuan finally had a partial understanding of it.
The subsystem produced in the advanced plane is divided into two parts. One is the system panel that is linked to the main system.

The other is the system seed. When the initial system seed merges with the host for the first time, it will undergo phagocytic evolution. If successful, then this seed will become the new host of the system, and the swallowed host can only be used as nutrients. It disappears and the game starts from the seed.

If the seeds are swallowed by the host, then the system panel will have an additional function of automatically extracting energy, extracting the power of the host, storing it, and waiting for the seeds to be born again. I have been sleepy and tired before, and my recovery is slow because of this.

There are two types of system evolution,

One is energy devouring, which is to absorb all the energy from the host,

The other system duel is what Li Nuo wanted to do before, devouring the opponent's system, if successful, then all the energy of the devoured party will belong to the victor.

But there is a prerequisite for this, which is to use the system to swallow it. There has never been a situation like Muyuan swallowing it with the soul, and the system is shut down, so naturally it cannot contact the main system.

And this Li Nuo, was devoured by the seeds of the system from the beginning, but left behind an obsession, which is his name Li Nuo, and every time the system goes to a world, it will find a person named Li Nuo to parasitize. If the world doesn’t exist, create one.

Li Nuo in this world, also known as Xiao Nuo, would actually be imprisoned by the material on the door panel and die after being locked up. However, the arrival of the system provided him with the vitality to survive, and this was how he met later. .

Looking at her system that was still under seal, Mu Yuan felt that she still had a certain chance. After all, she didn’t know if the system was malfunctioning at the time, and she actually found her, a ghost who didn’t have a body for the system to store, and it was okay. The split ghost is probably a bug that the game setters didn't expect.

Using the information obtained from Li Nuo's system, I processed my system in the suspended state, added a control setting, and then allocated a small part of my soul to continue living with it. In the future, as long as I want, I can use it at any time. Shut up in a small black room, and it will not affect your own soul subject.

It's not that I don't want to destroy this system, it's just that I need to use it if I want to become stronger.

I looked at the few things I still have, the seed of space, the seed of life, and a sealed power of faith. These things are not planned to be moved for the time being. The stronger the soul, the more you can discover these things. Trouble, once it is used, it may be targeted as a delicacy at any time.

The power controlling the big tree outside shrunk until it reached the height of a person, and then turned into a human form.

Lin Yu came here to water the tree every day. When he arrived here today, he found that the tree seemed different from usual. He stopped, and soon found that it was getting smaller, and then turned into a woman with long hair in purple.

"City Lord Lin, long time no see!"

Mu Yuan didn't expect to see Lin Yu as soon as she became a human. Looking at his wrinkled face, human beings can't escape the traces of time. Even with the space against the sky and extraordinary strength, they will still grow old. After a few decades, he will die.

"Mu Yuan, long time no see, you slept for a long time this time!"

At first, she thought this tree was her. She had thought countless times about when she would turn into a human and say hello to herself. But now, she has really turned into a human and come back. She wants to say I love you and wants to ask if she hates me, but Even a welcome back can't be said.

"Yeah, I've been sleeping for about decades this time. You look old."

Lin Yu is old, and I don't know when it started. Lin Yu found that he had lost the drive of his youth, and even often recalled his first encounter with Mu Yuan. She was very cute at that time, and he didn't have so many thoughts and ideas Goal, looking at the reflection in the water after washing his face, there are already two or three wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, even though he is much younger than others, but it is undeniable that he really cannot compare with the past.

"do you hate me?"

In the end, this question that has been in your heart for decades is still asked, and you should hate it.

"If you had to choose again, would you change your choice?"

Mu Yuan didn't say whether she hated it or not, but instead threw him a question, seeing how he froze, the answer was self-evident.

"sorry!"

Lin Yu held back for a long time, but in the end it was just an apology.

"Don't talk about this, don't worry, I don't plan to do anything to you. After all, I have guarded the city for decades. I will leave soon, but before that, I want to take something from you. .”

Mu Yuan watched him relax and then tense, but luckily she never expected it.
