Those Who Had Not Died

"Green Fir?"

Linsey gazed at the Life Scholar had appeared behind her.

Green Fir is standing right here.

However, her aura blended completely with her surroundings, making it impossible to distinguish her from others!

If it weren't for Linsey's naked eye seeing it.

With his level of perception, it's really hard to imagine that someone could walk so close Ignorance.

Green Fir's ability to conceal her presence is truly astonishing.

However, Linsey soon realized an even bigger problem.

How did the other party recognize him? In the Valley Secret Realm, Linsey revealed his real name to his fellow Exploration Team.

But for the sake of convenience, he did not change his appearance back to normal.

At this moment, he has a completely different body shape and appearance.

How did Green Fir recognize his identity at a glance? In an instant, a lot of questions arose.

Linsey didn't deny her identity outright, but instead humbly asked, "Green Fir, how did you recognize me?"

"..."

Upon hearing this question, the female scholar raised an eyebrow.

She was even a little surprised by Linsey's question, and after a few seconds, she reacted with a smile and replied:

"I don't judge people by their eyes, but by their life force."

Linsey murmured, "Life force..."

Green Fir nodded:

"In Volcano City, there is a group of people who follow the path of Individual Supremacy and strengthening their own life characteristics."

"They specialize in enhancing their personal lives, and things like changing bodies are easy for them. Volcano City developed corresponding techniques to meet these needs."

Green Fir smiled and explained Linsey's doubts.

But after that topic was over, her expression immediately turned serious. "Speaking of which, Linsey, why are you here?"

"The changes in the forest are not as safe as before. I suggest you leave here as soon as possible."

Linsey shook her head:

"With the forest in this state and war raging in Nine Bends City, where can we find any safety?"

"..."

Green Fir gave Linsey a deep look.

This conversation was enough for her to deduce all the information.

I waited a few seconds.

The Life Scholar continued, "You were even willing to give up the opportunity to go to Volcano City in order to avoid me and those merchants. Now that you're staying here, I can't guarantee you'll still have the freedom to leave."

Linsey glanced at the map discreetly.

Thanks to the knowledge he inherited, Green Fir's attitude at this moment is still a friendly green.

This 'threat' was merely a test by the other party.

Having understood Green Fir's attitude, Linsey tried to tell the truth:

"Green Fir, I have a general understanding of the condition of the Forest Veins."

"My companions who entered the forest with me are now trapped in a valley because of this problem. I can't abandon them and run away alone."

Green Fir didn't comment on this reason, but instead asked another question, "Trying to solve the problem—do you know what you'll have to face if you choose to do that?"

Linsey tried asking:

"Sixth Stage great merchant?"

Green Fir nodded, but the next second she pointed to herself:

"Besides the merchants, there might also be me, and even more dangerous enemies!"

"..."

Linsey fell silent.

He knew very well that Green Fir was a Sixth Stage Life Scholar, and those who were more dangerous than her were naturally the Seventh Stage awakeners.

Linsey recalled what she knew and tried to deduce, "You mean... Mr. Han Si Ke and Mu En City Lord are also nearby?"

Green Fir nodded slightly:

"You seem to know everything."

Linsey's tone carried a bitter smile, "The message I received earlier was that both of them had disappeared."

Faced with Lindsay's emotion, Qing Yao's tone was somewhat mocking:

"To ordinary people, their disappearances are indeed considered as disappearances."

Linsey asked curiously:

"So what exactly happened in Nine Bends City before the war began?"

Green Fir completely regarded Linsey as one of her own.

She revealed the information without any attempt to conceal it:

"They did have a great battle that night and then disappeared. However, I detected their Essence aura in the nearby river and found my way here."

Linsey tentatively asked:

Can you confirm their status?

Green Fir replied in a matter-of-fact tone:

"One of them was wounded, and the other broke through in the heat of battle."

"If they hadn't been fighting to the point of death, how could they have fallen into the river together and staged this disappearance act?"

"..."

Linsey changed the subject. "I heard that Kuit was taken to Nine Bends City. How is he now?"

Green Fir did not answer directly, but stated the reality. " In Nine Bends City, there is no one who can stop the Riverbank Merchant Guild of Commerce from taking action now."

Suddenly, Green Fir extended her left hand to Linsey:

"Hand."

Linsey didn't react at first. "Huh?"

Green Fir reminded her, "Extend your hand, your left hand."

Left hand?

Is he trying to treat his injuries?

Linsey remembered that doctors were also Awakened professions under Volcano City.

Although Green Fir is Life Scholar, given this subordinate relationship, she should also have the ability in this area.

Snap—

Their left hands were clasped together.

The moment their palms touched, Linsey felt a powerful Essence flow from the other person's hand into his body.

—It is the Life Source Material.

Moreover, it is different from the Essence at the Sprout Breaking Ground stage of Linsey.

The power of the Green Fir exhibits an extremely terrifying vitality.

Linsey even felt the Essence entering her body begin to detach from its simple energy nature and exhibit active life characteristics.

Mere contact can even affect the activity of one's own body's cells! "Your injury... hmm?"

With the help of the Essence, Green Fir checked Linsey's condition.

Her expression was initially full of confidence, but after coming into contact with the power left behind by the Extinction Crown...

"Impossible!"

Just like the previous doctors, Green Fir immediately released her grip.

His expression as he looked at Linsey became incredibly complicated:

"This thing... is definitely influenced by Eighth Stage technique! Linsey, what exactly happened to you in the forest... no, this injury was in the Black Mountain World, where the Dragon Beast didn't successfully advance either... what exactly happened in the Black Mountain World?"

Green Fir was completely baffled by this.

Linsey gave a wry smile, her expression somewhat awkward:

"I was there when the Dragon Beast died, and that battle became associated with some ancient beings."

Upon hearing this explanation...

Green Fir didn't delve into it further, but just shook her head and sighed, "You're such a troublemaker."

Then, recalling the Essence she had sensed within Linsey's body, she spoke up to remind her:

"Linsey, your Life Source Material has been cultivated quite well, reaching the Second Stage at such a young age. However, for safety reasons, I suggest you find an opportunity to abolish your willpower attribute Essence."

Linsey has heard this viewpoint more than once.

The scholar Volcano City before him, Green Fir, was undoubtedly the most learned person he had ever met, so he naturally had to ask, "Isn't there any way to keep them all safe?"

"..."

Green Fir frowned.

She looked intently at Linsey in front of her, hesitated for a few seconds, and then asked, "The world is so big, there are all sorts of wonders."

"I can't be sure that everyone is incapable of doing this."

"But Linsey, if you focus on the Life Source Material, I can even provide you with the complete five-stage advancement method. Why waste your energy on this kind of thing?"
