Who let him join the Sword Sect?!-Chapter 830 - 416: Today the Firefly Spirit Searches for Its Village (Part 2)

"Hurry up and confess, or I'll make you drink pesticide." Li sat on the side, alternating bites of pork rice and singing in a gruff voice.

Brother Monkey also got a bowl from Li, but he didn't speak and just focused on eating.

Da Tou Cai finally relaxed after seeing the deer-headed puppet thrown far away, then mumbled quietly to itself for a while before looking at Zhang Ze.

"Let me ask you a question first, are you with those traitors?"

Zhang Ze, "Who... those in white?"

Da Tou Cai nodded.

Zhang Ze, "No, I'm just a passing Masked Rider."

"Alright, I... can tell you, but you have to help me!"

"Help you with what?" Zhang Ze asked.

"Help me drive out those traitors who want to destroy our home!" Da Tou Cai widened its eyes and looked at Zhang Ze solemnly.

It then lowered its head, signaling Zhang Ze to touch the tuft of hair on its head.

As Zhang Ze's fingers touched the tuft, the collective memory belonging to the Firefly Spirits flowed into Zhang Ze's mind...

...

From the first sprout of life underwater... to the gigantic beasts of the Primordial Era... the first Firefly Spirit was born in the silver-white ruins on Luoyu Mountain.

Carrying fragments of memory from the fallen civilization, with fantasies eternally fixed in Earth Sea, perpetually destroying and reviving, influencing the minds of the Firefly Spirits.

Binding them to Chang State, yet also making them a part of this land.

Over the following tens of thousands of years, the Firefly Spirits roamed like dream phantoms along the roots of the Mother Tree, relying on those faint and fuzzy memories, driven by instinct to construct the home they imagined.

With the combined efforts of the Firefly Spirits and Chang State itself, this place was crafted into its current peculiar state, continuously repelling outsiders who tried to change it.

In these long ages, they hardly had their own will, acting under the drive of instinct and illusions like somnambulists.

At this point, they were less living creatures and more byproducts of the chaotic will of Chang State.

This situation was supposed to last forever.

Until one day last year, a Firefly Spirit discovered some black stones in an underwater cave near Luoyu Mountain.

Presumably washed there by the current.

The blank black stones require desire to activate, and logically, the usually blank-minded Firefly Spirits shouldn't be affected.

But for some reason, one black stone carried a message.

[Go Home]

This message was like a light illuminating the darkness.

From the moment the Firefly Spirit picked up the black stone, the thought spread among them, further affecting the entire Chang State.

The balance was broken.

The Firefly Spirits were no longer the dream-like shadows of the past; a new race was born.

They had their own will, and given time, one day the entire land of Chang State might awaken something akin to nature spirits.

But with the Firefly Spirits having acquired free will, internal divisions arose.

On the matter of going home, the Firefly Spirits split into two factions.

One faction believed that after such a long time, the Firefly Spirits already had a home, and Chang State is it, with the responsibility to protect it.

The other faction, influenced by the memories of fallen races, felt this was a foreign land, that their true home lay beyond the distant star sea, and they wanted to return there.

Seeing this, Zhang Ze casually named the two factions based on Da Tou Cai's expressions.

Deep green, expression ꐦ°᷄д°᷅, wanting to stay in Chang State, turning into Original Giants was the Frenzied faction.

Whiter shade, expression o(❛ᴗ❛)o, wanting to leave Chang State to return to their homeland, turning into supreme cubes was the Bo faction.

"What strange names, what do Frenzied and Bo factions mean?"

Due to the connection through the sacred tuft with Zhang Ze, Da Tou Cai sensed some of Zhang Ze's thoughts.

"Just code names, don't worry about it, you continue." Zhang Ze laughed trying to cover up.

"Oh." Da Tou Cai closed its eyes and continued sharing the memories with Zhang Ze.

Initially, despite differences, the two factions coexisted peacefully, with the green Da Tou Cai patrolling Chang State as usual, maintaining the environment and continuing to build their home.

While the white Da Tou Cai nestled in Luoyu Mountain, conducting research on the black stones, uncovering past secrets, searching for ways to leave Four Continents.

Zhang Ze, "Isn't that pretty peaceful? Why are you fighting?"

Da Tou Cai, "We were coexisting peacefully until those white folks found the spark." 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Zhang Ze, "Huh!"

Da Tou Cai, (๑•̌.•̑๑)ˀ̣ˀ̣

Zhang Ze quickly waved his hand, "Don't mind me, go on."

Da Tou Cai, "They want to use the spark to ignite Chang State, let the homeland soar again, sending themselves home.

"This absolutely cannot happen; Chang State is our home, those white ones are the real traitors.

"Therefore, we planned a surprise attack to destroy the spark, but unfortunately failed."

Da Tou Cai's face showed regret.

(◞‸◟)

"Then why are you on their side?" He looked at Da Tou Cai, whose roots turned from light green back to deep green due to soaking and losing color, and asked.

In the recent Plant vs. Cube battle of the new era, the green Da Tou Cai was defeated, sealed by the white ones, there shouldn't have been any catch.

"Because I'm a spy, a wet undercover agent infiltrating the traitors secretly, to sabotage the spark." Da Tou Cai raised its head proudly.

"?"

The sudden statement dumbfounded Zhang Ze.
