Chapter 80 The Heart of the Grass God
When the Void in the Sky said that she was the new God of Wisdom, Nashida was a little angry at first.
It has never called itself the God of Wisdom in the five hundred years since its birth. How dare it be so ignorant?
But Nashida quickly calmed down. She saw many inconsistencies in the void in the air, which were contradictions that only imperfect man-made creatures had.
"Let me handle it, and you take the final step."
Nashida pulled Liu Bai's hand and said to him.
"Okay, girl, don't force yourself. This guy looks much weaker than Brother Zhongli. If you really can't do it, let me take care of it."
Liu Bai was a little worried, but he still let go of her hand and reminded her.
"Um……"
"As a tool created by the Great Compassion Tree King, you are born with the ability to absorb the power of the Heart of God to drive yourself, but the master of the Heart of God is not you after all."
"You call yourself a god, but you are just relying on the connection with the Heart of God to barely glimpse the outline of the World Tree. Without the Heart of God, you are probably not even a false god!"
Nashida responded, then looked up into the void, ruthlessly exposing its true face.
"…What about you, Buyel? What kind of a god is it who needs human protection!"
Void was silent for a moment, and asked angrily as if he was embarrassed.
"Because I will protect them too."
Nashida answered calmly, and then walked along the streets of Xumi towards the void.
As she walked, a green light emanated from Nashida's body, covering the unconscious people around her with her power.
"You rely on the power of the people's wisdom to drain the energy of the Heart of God. I don't even need to take back the Heart of God. As long as I awaken the people of Xumi, the power you hold will disappear."
As Nashida spoke, she woke up the unconscious people. Those closest to her woke up one after another and looked around in confusion.
"How many people can you awaken at once? Even without the Heart of God, the energy stored in the Order is enough for me to defeat you."
The void flickered with red and green light, gathering a new round of energy rays to attack Nashida.
"Is that so? Then you, who have gained omniscience from the World Tree, should know how to stop others from cutting off the energy supply."
"Supply?! Wait, wait..."
Nashida's reminder made Void a little flustered.
It just glanced at the World Tree, and in that moment of omniscience it elevated its ordinary consciousness, but it did not maintain omniscience all the time.
Inside the Order Institute, following the traces of grass elemental power gradually emerging on the ground, Seno came to the control room where energy was stored. The thirty-man mercenary group guarding here had already fainted.
"……snort."
Purple wolf claws appeared on Seno's body, and then he swung his claws to violently destroy the main control switch, causing it to stop supplying energy outward.
Most of the energy stored in the Order is prepared for various experiments, and some is extracted from the earth veins. They are completely sealed in special energy storage devices using the Order's advanced technology. If no major experiments are carried out, they are enough for the Order to use for hundreds of years.
And after the energy supply is cut off, the Void will no longer be able to launch energy rays at will.
Given the degree of control it has over the Heart of God, the energy it obtains from it is only enough to maintain consciousness, divinity, and physical functioning, not enough for it to squander too much on attacks, so the attacks it launched from the very beginning used the energy provided by the House of the Decree.
"ended."
Seeing that the biggest threat to the void had been eliminated, Nashida raised her hand again and used all her elemental power.
The grass elemental power that had just been spread out immediately took root in various places in Xumi City. A large number of thick vines attacked the air, entwining and fixing the void.
"Xiaobai, I have determined the location of the Heart of God. It is where the Patisalan is blooming."
After controlling the void, Nashida turned around and reminded Liu Bai who was standing beside her.
As she spoke, vines circled around the Void's body at about one-third of the way up, and many conspicuous purple Patisalans grew on the surface.
"Heart of God...? Oh, I found this."
After hearing what Nashida said, Liu Bai was stunned for a moment. His first reaction was not to understand what it had to do with the Heart of God, but he still raised his hand as he listened to what Nashida said.
The next moment, a chess piece shining with emerald green light appeared in Liu Bai's hand, with some forbidden power still remaining on it.
Ever since the legacy of the Great Compassionate Tree King was restarted, the Void has been relying on the energy supply of the Heart of God to drive it. If the Heart of God is lost, the House of the Order will need to expend a large amount of energy to continue its operation.
And now that it has lost the Heart of God and its energy supply has been cut off, the Void has lost all energy. After slowly flashing twice, it completely stopped moving and was held up in the air by the giant vines controlled by Nashida.
The rubble that had surrounded it due to an invisible force fell down and scattered around the Ordinance House.
As the void closed, people wearing void terminals gradually woke up.
Because it needed to integrate the wisdom of the people to maintain itself, the Void did not attack any people throughout the process. Even if there were casualties, it was before it developed consciousness.
The guy who claimed to be the new god came and went quickly. Most people had no idea what happened. They just wondered why they were unconscious and why the void was shut down again.
When they came outside to look, they noticed the miracle of the giant vine holding up the Void's body.
To be able to control plants to this extent, it must be the power of the Grass God, right?
Although they didn't know what happened, the miracle before them made some people worship God again.
Such a conspicuous miracle can be seen almost throughout the entire Xumi City.
"..."
On the street, Liu Bai and Nashida stared at each other, and then Liu Bai carefully held the Heart of God in his hand in his arms.
"Girl, I really picked this up. I thought you didn't want it anymore..."
Holding the Heart of the Grass God in his arms, Liu Bai continued to look at Nashida weakly.
"Well... I understand. I'll leave it with you for now."
Seeing Liu Bai's expression, Nashida felt it was not right to ask for the Heart of God back, so she could only nod.
At this time, the people around who had been awakened earlier had already gathered around. They could see with their own eyes how Nashida controlled the vines to subdue the strange device in the air.
"You must be the Little Auspicious Grass King! Great! I finally see the Grass God!"
"Lord Grass God is above!"
"May the God of Grass bless me to pass my thesis defense..."
Although the Little Auspicious Grass King had no reputation in Xumi, when she appeared in person and performed miracles, ordinary people in Xumi would still be excited to see her.
Looking at the people worshipping Nashida, Liu Bai touched his chin and thought for a while.
"Please, little girl, bless me to collect all seven God's Hearts as soon as possible, bless me with a system that gives me a reward every day, and bless me with double the funding for each operation..."
Then Liu Bai imitated them and put his hands together and prayed devoutly.
"..."
Nashida looked at Liu Bai helplessly, then she responded to the worshippers with a gentle smile.
What made Nashida not know whether to be thankful or sad was that, except for the people who were awakened by her first and witnessed her controlling the vines to control the void, other people, even if they heard the name of the Little Auspicious Grass King, just took a look at her appearance from the outside and left, without showing any respect for the gods of a country.
But it’s better this way, as she and Liu Bai won’t be stopped on their way back to the Church of the Holy Spirit.
In the House of the Decree, Seno sorted out the whole story and took immediate action after discovering that the great sage Azar had escaped. The group of disciplinary officers headed by him also took action.
"Reporting to Lord Little Jixiang Grass King, all the remnants of Azar have been arrested, but he himself is still missing."
When Nashida brought Liu Bai to the gate of the Church Order Institute, Seno, who had controlled those people, was already waiting at the gate, and a group of unrelated scholars were watching curiously around them.
When the grass elemental force appeared on the ground to guide him, Seno had already guessed Nashida's identity.
Since ordinary people were not allowed to enter the Jingshan Palace, even though he was a senior disciplinary officer, he had never seen this little auspicious grass king before, so he did not recognize him when they first met.
