Chapter 109 There are always unscrupulous people who want to harm me

All over the black soil.

Not many races survived.

Basically, they are some races that survived by chance or have a certain resistance to the black soil and have been struggling to survive.

Even the entire Giant Tree Alliance has only survived to this day thanks to the corpses of giant trees under their feet and the mutual cooperation between races.

But now.

Three hundred years have passed.

The population of all ethnic groups is declining rapidly.

Anyone with a discerning eye could sense that they probably couldn't hold on for much longer, and the Giant Tree Alliance's massive population acquisition was the best proof of that.

And the appearance of living soil.

It undoubtedly gave them hope to survive.

As soon as the news spread, the surrounding surviving races gathered towards the Giant Tree Alliance, wanting to seize this last chance to continue their race!
"Come on, come on... The more people who come, the easier it will be for my plan to succeed."

Human living area.

Elvis Brown, who made all this happen, stood by the window with a wicked smile on his face, watching the increasing number of foreign tribes and refugees gathering on the street.

Behind him, a subordinate stood with his head bowed, reporting on the latest situation.

"Sir, I have followed your instructions and had the magic circle built and a large amount of Luna Stone invested."

"Well done. How about the immigrants? How are they being resettled?"

"They have been properly settled. They all live on the giant tree. However..."

The subordinate opened his mouth but hesitated to speak.

"Just what? Are you sympathizing with them?"

Elvis's face darkened and he turned around and looked at his subordinates with deep eyes.

"No, no, I just think... wouldn't it be too crazy to do this? What if..."

"Nothing unexpected!"

Elvis snorted coldly, his expression gradually becoming ferocious: "Do you know how much preparation I have made for this day? I have been in this damn place long enough!"

"But... sacrificing tens of thousands of people to open up a space channel is just a guess." The subordinate said worriedly.

That's right!

This was Elvis' plan.

By sacrificing the souls of tens of thousands of people to operate the formation, we can break through the plane barriers and escape from this man-eating black earth world!
Living soil?

That was just a means for him to deceive.

No one would be stupid enough to believe that he would hand over such a precious thing to share with others, right?

He has been preparing for this day for decades, and there must not be any mistakes!

include……

"puff!"

There was a muffled sound.

The subordinates stared with wide eyes, looking at the dagger piercing their chests and Elvis's hand holding the dagger, in disbelief.

Then his eyes went dark and he fell straight to the ground, with blood all over the floor.

"You talk too much."

Elvis snorted coldly, took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood off his hands, opened the door and went outside.

"Go, inform the refugees there that they will have an extra meal tonight."

He said this calmly, then turned and left, as if he had done something insignificant.

Not long after they walked away, another figure came running towards them.

"Sir, there is news from Crescent Valley that the entrance to the druid's lair has been discovered. It is very likely that a large number of Luna Stones are preserved."

"Druid's lair?"

Elvis narrowed his eyes and said, "Send someone over there and try to collect as many Luna Stones as possible. They will be of great use to me."

"Yes!"

The person left quickly and went outside to arrange tasks.

……

the other side.

Inside the Moon Goddess Altar.

No matter what happened outside, it had no impact on Rhodes, who continued to lead a busy and fulfilling life.

After building the granary, he took Augla and the others and spent a whole day planting all the new wheat seeds.

Thus.

He would then be able to harvest grain once more before the next black moon and fill up the remaining granaries.

"Oh, by the way, Augla, I remember you said before that the elves can't sense the existence of the Dream Forest. Why is that?"

After learning that there might be dark elves left in the druid's lair, Rhodes became more concerned about the affairs of the elves.

After all, he is really short of labor now.

"Well... could it be because our tree spirit clan is closer to Lord Tree God?" Augla guessed.

"You think too much." Alpha interrupted, "Dryads and elves were both born from the Tree of Life. This cannot be the reason."

"That's right."

Augura responded.

indeed.

In terms of closeness, the elves should be no worse than them, but why are they the only ones who sense the call of the forest first, while the elves and other races cannot?

You must know that the Elf Queen is a powerful being in the Holy Land, the closest being to a demigod, and her terrifying mental power can almost penetrate the barriers of the planes.

"Then Lord Rhodes, do you still remember what you did when you summoned me for the first time?"

"What have you done?"

Rhodes tilted his head and thought carefully.

"I remember... there seemed to be three black beasts that came to harass the altar. We dealt with them all. Then the little thing and the raven took the bodies to the tree god statue to absorb them, and then we summoned you."

After all, it wasn't that long ago, and he still remembered it very clearly.

Later, he even warned the little creatures not to bring corpses back to the altar casually.

Is it because of this?
After saying this, Rhodes was stunned.

Augla and Alpha looked at each other and looked with strange expressions at the little creature playing in the mud with Kaba in the open space in the distance.

"Could it be... because of this?" Alpha said hesitantly.

Rhodes and Augla remained silent, their expressions becoming even weirder.

Because they suddenly recalled that the little thing was born on the altar and had the blood of the tree spirit ancestor.

Is it because the ancestral bloodline in it creates a connection with Augla that it summoned him here?

"That's not right. Why didn't the mountain giants react?" Augla pointed to the two mountain giant babies in the distance.

These two little guys were also raised by Rhodes himself and were born in the woods. Logically, they should have the blood of their ancestors, and the mountain giants should be able to sense it.

"Is it possible that all the mountain giants are sleeping?" Alpha glanced at him.

Upon hearing this, Augla slapped his head and said, "That's right, they all seem to be sleeping now, it would be strange if we can sense them!"

Case solved.

The reason why the tree spirits can enter the forest is entirely because of the existence of this little thing!

This result made the three of them feel incredible and they stared at the open space in the distance.

"Yeah?"

Feeling their gazes, the little thing turned around, his face full of question marks, completely unaware of what was going on.

"how about you?"

Augla looked at Alpha again: "You also have the blood of the Fire Dragon ancestor. Why haven't you seen the Fire Dragons wandering outside enter the forest? Or have they become extinct?"

The lives that are chosen by the Moon Goddess and stay in the Dream Forest have the purest souls and more or less possess the blood of their ancestors, just like the little thing.

Not to mention there is also Kaba who has the blood of the Dragon God.

"I think it has something to do with the statue."

Rhodes pointed to the two dilapidated statues at the other end of the altar. If he guessed correctly, one of them was carved with the Dragon God.

However, without the mark of the Dragon God, the statue cannot be activated.

Therefore, there is no way for him to contact his former relatives and descendants like the tree god statue.

"I see."

After hearing this explanation, Augla and Alpha suddenly understood.

Especially Alpha, with worry in his eyes.

The Dream Forest has been gone for so long, he doesn't know if there are any surviving dragons in the world.

It seems that we have to find the Dragon God Mark as soon as possible, and then ask Lord Rhodes to help see if we can contact them.

Perhaps guessing his worries, Rhode said comfortingly, "Don't worry, wait for the demons to send the first batch of flame mushrooms to help you recover your strength. Then you should be able to go to Moon Bay to have a look."

"Yeah, I know. I'll go recover first."

Alpha nodded, said nothing more, stood up and sat on his favorite big rock to continue repairing his soul.

In this regard.

Rhodes was powerless.

Because he had given Alpha the Moon Spring before, but the effect was not as great as that of Augla, it just made his soul more condensed.

According to Augla, his soul was forcibly extracted and sealed, and the damage was very serious, and it could not be completely repaired by external forces alone.

Only things containing fire energy can have some effect.

Seeing that all the work was done, Rhodes stood up and left, preparing to study the principles of magic in the open space.

"Puff, puff, puff~"

Suddenly, the sound of flapping wings was heard.

A small gargoyle flew across the sky and fell towards him. It was news from the demon tribe.

Rhodes' eyes moved slightly, and he reached out to catch the gargoyle, closed his eyes and felt the spiritual information retained on it.

"What's wrong?"

Augula came over carrying a piece of wood.

"This is news from the demon tribe. They said they have found the exact location of the Giant Tree Alliance and discovered a big secret."

Rhodes opened his eyes in surprise.

The information left on the gargoyle is very detailed, including the general situation of the Giant Tree Alliance and what is happening outside.

Now he finally understood why the black beasts in the druid's lair rioted. It turned out that those guys were playing a treasure hunt and feeding game in there.

Where is the Druid's Lair?
An underground kingdom inhabited by numerous ferocious beasts!
Black beasts of level four or five or above would occasionally appear on the ground, not to mention inside the nest. If you break in, wouldn't that just be feeding them?
However, these have no impact here for the time being.

What surprised Rhodes the most was the secret told by the demons.

Giant Tree Alliance.

It seemed that a large magic circle was being prepared, a sacrificial magic circle that almost covered the entire gathering place!
This news was accidentally learned from a human male wizard when a succubus from the demon clan was seducing men.

Well known.

When a man is doing something, his willpower is the weakest, so this news is most likely true, and Rhodes doesn't know how to comment on it.

After hearing his story, Augula, who was standing by, was also surprised.

"Large-scale sacrificial magic? What do they want to do? Do they want to sacrifice all the tribes they have recruited?"

Augla doesn't have much feelings for races other than these guardians. If they die, they die.

What concerned him most was the sacrificial array.

Generally speaking.

The sacrificial array is only activated when one's own strength is insufficient, and one will sacrifice something to obtain the matching energy.

It goes without saying that the sacrificial array that covers an entire large gathering place would require an enormous amount of energy.

"It seems... that some space channel is about to be opened. That's what the information says." Rhodes extracted the information again.

"Space channel?"

Augla's expression became serious: "We must stop them! If they do this, they may summon other gods!"

The Dream Grove is the power of the Moon Goddess.

Now that the Moon Goddess is gone, the Dream Forest will surely attract the covetousness of other gods, but they are temporarily unable to come because of the plane blockade.

But if the plane channel is opened, it is not certain, and no one knows what will happen.

Rhodes didn't expect that things would be so serious.

He is just a small gardener, but he cannot stop those wolf-like and ferocious gods. Aren't they deliberately destroying his leisurely farming life?

"Stop it! We must stop it! These unruly people are rebelling even with me around!"

"Then what should we do? This place is so far away from there. By the time we get there, the war will probably have already started, and it won't be easy for us to get there."

"Simple, I have a way."

Rhodes chuckled and immediately came to the lantern forest outside the altar.

After walking around for a while, I finally found the only red lantern tree.

"I've raised you for so long, it's time for you to make great contributions."

As he spoke, he picked a few red lantern seeds from it, input a piece of mental information, and let the gargoyle take the seeds back.
