“Well, I initially thought hundreds of years had passed here, but actually only three years have passed,” Izayoi Sakamaki said, grabbing a handful of sandy soil.
Senju stood there and analyzed, "The land here is alright. It hasn't been polluted by any harmful elements; it's just been drained."
"Oh, it seems you have a clue," Izayoi Sakamaki said with a slight surprise. "But is there any land more miserable than this?"
“Well, I have seen it. Not counting alien lands, I’ve seen it twice. It’s a world where all living things have been devoured by monsters, leaving behind gray dust. It’s a world so polluted by dust that even monsters can’t survive,” Thousand Hands shook his head slightly as he spoke of William and Rick’s hometown. “Compared to that, this is really a small problem.”
“Well, putting aside alien planets, in those kinds of worlds, it sounds like humanity is in a pretty bad situation,” Izayoi Sakamaki said with a slight surprise. Senju nodded. “Well, actually it is. In those two worlds, humanity is almost extinct. Let me give you a sense of it.”
With a wave of his hand, Senju entered a realistic illusion. The sky was filled with dark clouds, the surroundings were bathed in a dim red light, and fine dust drifted around. Izayoi Sakamaki raised her hand to catch it, and then felt a heat on her hand, with a small spot of corrosion on it. "What is this?!"
"Cough cough," came a painful coughing sound from the side. When Izayoi Sakamaki turned around, she saw that Jin Seral and Asuka Kudo had large areas corroded where the dust had touched them. "Hey, are you guys alright!"
"It's alright, this is just an illusion," Thousand Hands casually pointed at them, and the signs of corrosion on their bodies receded. A light shield appeared around them, blocking the black ash in the illusion. The group stood there quietly watching the illusion, feeling a chill in their hearts. Asuka murmured, "How on earth did this happen? Does life really exist in this kind of world?"
"Of course, and it's thriving!" Thousand Hands lifted everyone into the air, and then everyone knew the world had changed like this.
The reason is that there are various powerful races fighting over there, and each attack can destroy a mountain range. "They are the creations of the gods of this world. After only a few thousand years of war among the gods, it is very easy for them to become like this."
“What a despairing world,” Izayoi Sakamaki sighed, while Senju smiled and shook his head. “No, this is the kind of world that humanity is destined to destroy.”
Seeing their surprised expressions, Thousand Hands waved his hand, and the surrounding illusion disappeared. "Alright, let's talk about your land issue."
"So, you can revive this land?!" Ren Seral exclaimed in surprise. Senju nodded. "It's very simple, but what price will you pay?"
“We have items in our treasure vault that are suitable for you, sir,” Ren Seral said decisively. “If you, sir, are not satisfied, when we advance to the sixth level and reclaim our property, we can mine a vein of ‘Gold Iron’ together with you!”
Izayoi Sakamaki chimed in, "We have a pretty good library here, with lots of materials. How about we use the right to read that as payment?"
“Golden Steel and the library, huh? Well, this is worth my time,” Senju nodded. Although he didn’t know what Golden Steel was, it must be a special metal. Plus, the nameless library should contain some useful knowledge. No matter how he looked at it, he wouldn’t lose out. “Then, let’s begin!”
As Thousand Hands continuously channeled life force and earth vein spiritual energy, a shimmering white rain of light fell around them, and the land there began to thirstily absorb it. After a while, the soil in the sand painting had turned into fertile farmland, though it was still barren.
Senju casually created a pile of seeds and scattered them over the land. Then he activated his Wood Release energy, and all sorts of trees appeared there immediately: fruit trees, flowering trees, and ordinary trees. The ground was also covered with various vegetables, flowers, and unusual plants.
"It really came back to life? This isn't an illusion, is it?" Ren Seral stared blankly at the scene, while Izayoi Sakamaki was also astonished. "Wow, that's amazing. To be able to make plants grow in an instant. I'm getting more and more interested in you, Senju."
"Haha, it's alright," Senju waved casually, but Kudo Asuka said tremblingly, "Um, is this really not an illusion? Why did I see cabbages flying around?"
"Huh?!" Everyone looked over there and saw a bunch of cabbages floating in the sky. Looking down at the ground, there were also radishes jumping around, squealing mushrooms, biting tomatoes, and saury hanging from the branches. Senju was momentarily embarrassed. "Ahem, I picked up the wrong seeds. It's okay, these are very high-end ingredients."
“This is truly a sight I’ve never seen before,” Izayoi Sakamaki said, watching with a cryptic expression. “But since Lord Senju has said so, let’s have these dishes as an extra meal tonight.”
"What happened?!" Black Rabbit jumped out from the side, then looked at the forest in surprise, rubbing her eyes hard. "Black Rabbit, am I dreaming again? Never mind, I'd better go back. This must be a dream."
Chapter 965 The Girl in the Jungle
"Sister Black Rabbit, this isn't a dream!" Lily, the girl with fox ears beside Black Rabbit, grabbed her hand and cheered, "It's real! Lord Senju has revived our land!"
The children who heard the shouts came out and stared blankly at the woods. After a while, they started crying, and Black Rabbit quickly comforted them.
"Alright, stop crying, we'll eat these vegetables today!" Izayoi Sakamaki said as she rushed towards the vegetables. The two girls next to her saw this and rushed over as well. Senju, however, pulled back the children who wanted to help, saying, "This is not something children can do. Growing vegetables is very dangerous."
"Sigh, but," the children stopped abruptly after saying that, because they had witnessed what a vegetable siege was all about. The three people over there had underestimated the vegetables, but they were quickly taught a lesson. Various vegetables attacked them in all sorts of unexpected ways, and the children were hit more than ten times at the beginning, running back with tears in their eyes.
The black rabbit stared in disbelief. "These are spirit plants! How can they grow in ordinary soil?! They should grow in the spirit garden, but the spirit garden is over there!"
"I don't care what kind of spiritual plants you are!" Feeling embarrassed, the group wiped away their tears and rushed in again. This time, however, they were very careful and knocked down a group of vegetables. But then, seven or eight blades of grass suddenly popped out from the ground and made a sharp cry that Qian Shou found very piercing. The children next to them were holding their ears and trying to endure it.
"Mandragora?! Mandrake?!" A gasp rang out from the surroundings. Senju waved his hand, creating a barrier to protect them. Over there, Kasukabe Yo had already foamed at the mouth and fainted, while Kudo Asuka was kneeling on the ground beside him. Fortunately, Sakamaki Izayoi reacted quickly, using the vegetables in his hand as cannonballs to eliminate several sources of noise.
"Um, could it be mandrake?" Ren asked Senju after the voice disappeared. Senju nodded, "Yeah, it probably got mixed into the seeds earlier, but it's a normal species in the vegetable garden, it's fine."
"Uh, is this really a vegetable garden?" The children were speechless. They had never seen such a treacherous vegetable garden in their lives—the legendary garden of an evil witch, perhaps...
That's how it is, right?
"Haha," Senju chuckled dryly. The vegetable garden, which had been exploding like an explosion, finally quieted down. Kudo Asuka used her Word of Power to bind the surrounding plants, then helped Kasukabe Yō walk to the side, while Sakamaki Izayoi jumped to the other side.
"Are all the plants here just left to roam around like this?" Kudo Asuka complained, while Kasukabe Akari's eyes were still darting around. Sakamaki Izayoi shouted, "Hey everyone, I found an injured girl in there."
"Ha, even the Anle Girl has grown up," Senju chuckled dryly. She was a green-haired girl sitting on a rock, her legs and arms wrapped in bandages with traces of blood. Pain flashed across her face, making her look heartbreaking.
Upon seeing the girl, the group immediately went forward. "What happened to you? How did you get such a serious injury? Let me treat you."
"Stop!" Thousand Hands shouted, pulling the group back with his magical hand. "This isn't human; it's a very dangerous monster."
"A monster? No wonder, I was wondering why I suddenly felt protective of strangers," Izayoi Sakamaki said happily, then looked at the girl over there, "Hey, what kind of monster are you? Can you talk?"
"Hmm, the Tranquil Maiden, a plant-based monster. She doesn't physically attack people, but she often uses actions to evoke a strong protective instinct in travelers. Once they can't resist this temptation, they'll be trapped and die. Adventurer parties that discover this monster must eliminate it," Thousand Hands pulled out a small notebook and began reading aloud. "She's a highly intelligent monster, and should be able to speak, but she's just been born..."
The girl opposite him looked like she was about to cry, and Senju felt he couldn't continue speaking. The others subconsciously moved closer, while Izayoi Sakamaki observed and touched everything. "So that's how it is. She really is a monster. These bandages are also disguises, and so are the stones behind her. She's really a rare item. How much can this sell for?"
"Shameless! Scoundrels!" Several girls shouted in protest, while a few other children walked away in a daze. Thousand Hands casually cast a sobering spell on them, and the group froze for a moment before running back behind them in fear. "What just happened?!"
"It's just a normal move by Anle Girl. Even the ruthless girl who wiped out Farfetch'd couldn't resist her charm," Senju cast a spell to stabilize her mind. "Actually, she's very precious. Whoever defeats her will immediately increase their strength."
"Oh, so that means there will be benefits to killing her?" Izayoi Sakamaki clenched his fists, while the girl looked bewildered. She then leaned towards Izayoi Sakamaki with a relieved expression, as if she were a daughter seeing her father.
The people around also looked on with pity, and Izayoi Sakamaki paused, stunned. "Did this guy really grow from a seed?"
“That’s right, it probably got mixed into the seed just now,” Thousand Hands nodded there, his expression indifferent. “It’s best to kill her now, otherwise, your community will probably be killed by her.”
"...Are you going to kill...me...?" The girl sat trembling on the rock, her eyes filled with tears. Kudo Asuka stood in front of her, saying, "You can't hurt this child. She was only born recently."
"I'm sorry, I'm alive. If I were a monster... I would cause trouble," the girl said haltingly, her eyes slowly dimming as she lowered her head. "For the first time... humans... spoke. In the beginning... and finally, it was you. Thank goodness."
She clasped her hands together in a prayerful gesture, "Rebirth, no, monster, that would be good..."
After saying this, she closed her eyes, as if resigned to her fate. Those around her simply couldn't bring themselves to harm her! However, Izayoi Sakamaki watched with great interest, "What an amazing monster! So why do newborn monsters talk so normally?! Who taught her that?"
"You mean, she's actually a dangerous monster too?!" Leticia exclaimed in surprise. Izayoi Sakamaki nodded. "That's right, Asuka, you can get people to tell the truth, right? Why don't we try it on this monster lady and see?"
Chapter 966 The Conversion of the Happy Girl
“But,” Kudo Asuka looked at him with a reluctant expression, then looked apologetically at Anraku, “I’m sorry, but to clear your name, I have no choice but to do this. Tell me what's on your mind!”
"I'm so hungry! Why did I suddenly grow so big? I haven't stored up enough nutrition yet. These people look like good food. If I eat them, I need to grow properly too," the girl said fluently, startling the people around her. Kudo Asuka's face turned red and then green. She hadn't expected to be deceived by a newborn monster. "Damn it, let me kill her!"
"..." The girl was speechless for a moment, then said softly, "Um, what you just said, can we pretend we didn't hear it?"
"You think you can speak fluently?! How dare you mess with me!" Asuka Kudo pulled out a silver cross-shaped sword, intending to kill the monster opposite her, but was blocked by Izayoi Sakamaki.
"Okay, let's stop for now, Asuka. I have a good idea. Let's have a Gift Contest with her. We happen to need a maid."
"Sixteenth Brother, you mean?!" Ren looked at Leticia to the side and immediately understood. "The kind of Gift Game of the Garden Knights? Using Gift Games to bind her and make her work for us? That's really a good idea."
“Good, everyone can rest assured now,” Izayoi Sakamaki nodded with a smile. Meanwhile, Black Rabbit, who had been protecting Anraku Girl, turned red with anger. “Lord Izayoi, I’ll apply to the Little Garden immediately! I’ll make sure she apologizes to everyone properly!”
The group huddled together and discussed for a while, then a piece of paper fell into Anle Girl's hand, with Izayoi Sakamaki threatening beside her, "If you don't agree, we'll get rid of you like a weed!"
The Gifted Competition: The Apologetic Maiden of Peace.
Contestant: Anle Girl.
Organizer: Anonymous.
Victory condition: Run ten meters within one second.
Failure condition: Failure to meet the victory conditions.
Victory reward: Being cleared away as a weed.
Reward for failure: Evolve into human form, move freely, be completely owned by Nameless, and serve Nameless wholeheartedly for life.
Nameless seal.
The girl named Anle reluctantly agreed, and then a second later, a light emanated from her body, and she stood up from the ground. She had completely transformed from a half-human, half-plant monster into a humanoid girl who could move freely, and then consciously stood aside.
“That’s a good idea,” Senju nodded. Actually, this method is a competition that the vampires in the Little Garden often play. After they lose, they are restricted from drinking blood but can still maintain a normal life. Of course, Remilia and the others did not play this kind of blessing game.
“But I’ll still clear this area,” Senju said, looking at the dense forest on one side. “Who knows what might be hiding inside.”
“No need for that,” Izayoi Sakamaki waved her hand. “We shouldn’t destroy plants that have grown with great difficulty. We can build a training ground here; there are many interesting things inside.”
"Are you sure?" Senju asked somewhat dejectedly, because he didn't know how much he had planted inside. After all, he had collected hundreds of thousands of seeds and had planted countless of them just now. It wasn't as simple as it seemed.
Ren, noticing Senju's worry, explained, "Lord Senju, please rest assured, this land still belongs to the Nameless One. In a moment, we can have a blessing contest with all the plants on this land, which will allow us to control them."
With the help of Black Rabbit's authority, Nameless and the plants here held a gift competition, and a forest elf was born in this forest as a contestant.
Although she could launch all sorts of strange, exploding vegetables and fruits, emit sound waves and poison gas, and even use parasitic vines and white zesties, she was ultimately defeated by Izayoi Sakamaki, and the plant was also restrained.
"Is this even possible?" Senju was slightly surprised. It seems that the Gift Match has a lot of potential. Izayoi Sakamaki picked up a few vegetables that had fallen when she knocked down the forest elf and threw them into Anle Girl's arms. "Anyway, let's try these vegetables and see what they taste like."
“I can’t cook, I only need to photosynthesize,” Anle Girl shook her head, then took out a fruit. “How about we all try this? It’s a fruit I grew. It’s not very nutritious, but it tastes pretty good.”
"Hehe," the others around him became somewhat wary, and Kudo Asuka asked, "What exactly is the effect of this fruit?"
"Ah, that is, it makes people not feel hunger, pain, or fatigue, and can make them fall into a hallucination, after which they weaken and die," the girl said nonchalantly. "According to my memory, after that, they can take root and absorb nutrients."
"Is this really a plant?" Kudo Asuka rubbed her head, feeling a headache coming on, while Sakamaki Izayoi remained calm. "It's normal, isn't it? There are plants like Venus flytraps in nature, so it's normal for other worlds to have man-eating plants."
Senju nodded, "Actually, the Anle Girls are quite famous in the other world. Those old and sick adventurers often seek them out to relieve their pain."
"Can she still heal injuries?" Kudo Asuka paused for a moment, while Kasukabe Yo and Sakamaki Izayoi smiled wryly. "If that's the case, then I finally understand why she's called the Girl of Peace and Joy. She's a monster who never gets a wrong name!"
"What are you talking about?" Asuka asked, looking completely bewildered. Senju coldly replied, "It's just about helping them find complete liberation. And there's only one way to truly feel no pain: death!"
"Death?!" Asuka shuddered, glancing fearfully at the girl beside her. The girl beside her was somewhat indignant. "You can't say that! We didn't do anything wrong. Helping people escape suffering is our instinct. We were this kind of creature from the beginning!"
"Heh," the people around her sneered, but the girl in peace and happiness looked indifferent. According to the memories she had inherited, she used to have to wait for her prey every day, but now that she could move freely, losing a few things didn't matter.
"Sister Black Rabbit, you are..."
"What are you doing?" A child suddenly noticed the black rabbit squatting there, trembling incessantly, and couldn't help but ask. Then everyone's eyes turned to look, and they discovered that the black rabbit was munching on a cabbage.
Chapter 967 Water Tree
"Black Rabbit, even if you are a rabbit, you don't have to start eating it now," Izayoi Sakamaki teased. Black Rabbit immediately retorted, "No, this cabbage is delicious. Even in the old Spirit Garden, this was a top-grade product among top-grade products. Lord Izayoi will know once you try it!"
"Is it really that delicious?" Izayoi Sakamaki casually tore off a piece of vegetable leaf and tasted it. "Wow, it's really good. I've never eaten such good vegetables before."
"Let me try some too," several people on the side tasted it, and their determination to protect the vegetable garden became even stronger! Then the boys gathered vegetables and fruits from the forest, and the children on the other side were organized to carry the vegetables and fruits back.
"Ugh," a low groan came from the side while they were moving things, and Kasukabe Yo, who had been unconscious, woke up. "What was that noise just now?"
"Yao, you're awake!" Kudo Asuka exclaimed happily, then recounted what had just happened, "That looked like a mandrake, but thankfully Izayoi-kun destroyed it."
"Mandragora?! That legendary plant?!" Kasukabe Yao was pleasantly surprised, only then remembering what had just happened. However, seeing everyone working so enthusiastically, she joined in as well.
Senju stood to the side for a while before remembering that he was supposed to be looking at Mizuki. He told Renji, who then led the way for him, "This way, Lord Senju. Mizuki is over there."
Following him, Senju arrived at a small lake with a long stone bridge over it. In the middle of the bridge was a circular altar that constantly spouted water, and on top of it stood a tree several meters tall. "Is this the Water Tree? It's so small."
“Lord Senju, this is actually quite large,” Ren explained. “This water tree not only solves our community’s drinking water problem, but can even be used for bathing.”
"Uh," Senju muttered speechlessly, the living conditions here were really tough. After watching for a while, Senju asked, "How many years did it take for this to grow this tall?"
