I'm a villain, not a devil

"There are energy fluctuations in that place, and they are different from the energy fluctuations of mutants. They may be human!"

Human?

Hearing Luo Xi's voice, Sean's first reaction was the Stoneheart people.

In the game, the Stoneheart people are a race living in the cavity in the background setting. They look roughly the same as humans and have many special abilities. However, they only exist in the setting in the game.

However, in this world, Sean has seen the Stoneheart people. When he was in the Ilia Municipal District of the Empire, Jude, the governor of the Ilia Grand District, used the special ability of a Stoneheart person to complete a sacrifice.

This underground race that will explode when stimulated, the first scene of its appearance is that it is regarded as a powerful bomb.

However, according to the setting, the Stoneheart people are relatively rare, and because the living environment of the cavity is not excellent, the development speed of this race is also very slow, which is different from the Rainbow Nest Clan, which was forced to migrate to the mountains to settle down.

The Rainbow Nest tribe at least had some information left before the doomsday, which gave them some knowledge of the outside world, but the Stoneheart people were a pure primitive tribe that appeared in the cavity before the doomsday. The race's cognition, knowledge level, and technical level were very limited.

Otherwise, Jude, the governor of the Ilia Grand Administrative Region, would not have been able to trick the only Stoneheart girl who had appeared into self-destructing.

However, according to the previous situation, the small number of Stoneheart people should have gathered in the cavity near the Ilia Grand Administrative Region. After all, a primitive race does not have the ability to migrate on a large scale, and they should not have migrated to the cavity under the Paradise City.

With a lot of doubts and a lot of bugs on their shoulders, Sean and Luo Xi rushed towards the direction of the energy fluctuations.

The two were very fast and arrived at the direction of the energy fluctuations in a short while.

There was an unequal battle taking place there. The large number of people besieging the enemy looked no different from ordinary humans, but when they fought, they would use the special ability to sneak into the ground, which was obviously the Stoneheart people.

The other side, who struggled but couldn't hold on for long, was also a foreign race... and an old acquaintance of Sean.

His expression became strange, and Luo Xi was also full of suspicion.

"Tree people... invaded this underground? Or the underground of Paradise City?"

Yes, there were more than a dozen tree people under siege.

Sean did not answer Luo Xi's question, but looked carefully at the two sides of the battle.

The Stone Heart people cooperated well, and their numbers far exceeded the enemy, which was a completely suppressed situation. Strangely, the Stone Heart people did not want to kill the other side, and seemed to have been pursuing the capture of these tree people alive-if it was the vanguard of the tree people invading, a primitive race like the Stone Heart people would not be polite, and at most leaving one alive for questioning would be enough, unlike now to capture all of them alive.

More importantly, where did the tree people come from?

The battle did not last long, and the stubborn resistance of those tree people was useless. As a stone fell, the last tree man also fainted.

The Stonehearts quickly stepped forward and used the vines of a special plant to tie up all the unconscious tree people. Tree people are a plant-friendly race, and vines are easy to use, but the Stonehearts didn't care. They just carried the tree people on their shoulders skillfully.

The leading Stoneheart was a muscular man. He looked at the glowing mushroom tree and pinched his fingers, as if he was calculating the time in a primitive way.

"It should be almost done this time, go back first." He ordered.

"Okay."

The Stonehearts carried the captured tree people in the other direction of the cave.

Luo Xi was surprised, and she said, "It seems that this group of people is not doing this for the first time?"

Sean nodded strangely: "Yes, they are all skilled workers. I feel that this group of tree people probably didn't invade the underground, but were lured here..."

"Luring, was it done by that group of people?" Luo Xi was surprised. She didn't know the Stonehearts yet.

After briefly introducing the Stoneheart race, Sean motioned for Luo Xi to follow along.

The changes that occurred near Paradise City are likely related to the sudden appearance of the Stoneheart race.

The Treeman tribe lost their Treeman King Wanmu, the evil god who served the World Tree and called him mother. He tried to be the first to descend into the world, but was finally killed by Sean in front of countless evil gods.

However, although the Treeman tribe suffered heavy losses, their invasion of the continent did not stop. Treemen began to land intermittently in the Sunken Port near Paradise City a long time ago.

The Sunken Port had already responded because Paradise City had communicated with them, and some of the Golden Ghosts also participated in the strangling of the Treemen near the Sunken Port.

Sean had always been puzzled that there were too few Treemen landing near the Sunken Port. He thought that the Treemen's hiding ability had been strengthened again, so he specifically asked his men to be more careful.

Now it seems that those disappeared tree people were probably lured here...

However, the Sunken Port is quite a distance away from the Paradise City. He and Luo Xi calculated when they went down from the inside of the big crack to the cavity. This is a passage that tilts downward, and the direction of the tilt is exactly the direction of the Sunken Port, but it is still quite a long distance.

Even if the peak king wants to travel quickly, it will probably take a day and a night.

How did these stone-hearted people lure the tree people here?

The most important thing is, why did they capture these tree people?

The Stone Heart Man led the way in front, and Sean and Luo Xi hid in the shadows behind and moved forward.

The ecology of the underground cavity is completely different from that of the ground. Various strange plants occupy every corner of the cave. The mushroom trees emitting white light are not everywhere. Some places are pitch black, and there are waves of energy fluctuations that even Sean is a little surprised.

The Stone Heart Man is obviously very familiar with this place. They skillfully avoided some dangerous areas. Not long after, a huge underground plain appeared in front of them.

At its edge, in the simple camp built with rocks and stone pillars, another group of Stone Heart Man came up.

"Why do I feel that this group of Stone Heart Man doesn't seem to have lived here for a long time?" Luo Xi asked in confusion.

Sean also nodded. The traces of life in this place are not obvious, but judging from the scale of the surrounding area, the number of Stone Heart Man is not small, even more than the number of the Rainbow Nest Clan.

This shows that the Stone Heart Man has not moved here for long.

After taking a few glances, Sean took the lead and caught up with the group of Stoneheart people who were carrying the tree people.
