Chapter 150 How do you survive until now?

Noticing Rhodes' abnormality, Augula, who was walking in front, turned around.

He was holding a meteorite in one hand, with a few soul ravens standing on his body, and he looked very busy.

"Have you noticed the difference in this black soil?"

Rhodes glanced at him and expressed his guess.

When I learned that the black soil had life characteristics and might be a living thing, my neck suddenly shrank and I felt a creepy feeling.

"You mean, this thing is alive?"

He broke off a piece of dry bark from his body and threw it outside.

In an instant, a large amount of black gas turned into tentacles, quickly wrapped around the bark, and devoured the life on it.

"Hiss~ It seems that this is really the case."

Augula took a breath and noticed the abnormality of Heitu.

He had always thought that this was some kind of death energy, or energy similar to dark elements, but now it seemed a little different.

"Do you think it could be some kind of algae or fungus?" Rhodes guessed.

"Impossible? What kind of algae or fungus can turn the Dream Forest into this?" Augula scratched his head.

"Is it possible that the Moon God infused divine power into this plant?"

"Uh... Why did Lord Moon God do this? Do you think there are too many lives in the forest?"

"Perhaps he is not targeting the life in the woodland?"

"You mean... other gods?"

Although Augla's brain wasn't very bright sometimes, he was definitely unmatched in terms of jumping thoughts, and he jumped to the side immediately.

This made Rhodes stunned.

His original intention was to wonder if it was used to resist some cliché villains like void monsters or extraterritorial demons, but Augla suddenly brought up other gods.

hiss--

Don't tell me yet.

You really don’t want to say that.

Could it be that this black soil was really planted by the Moon Goddess to target other gods?

Ok……

There is indeed this possibility.

After all, it was once the kingdom of a main god.

Even if it is a broken version, there should be many gods coveting it.

But he had been here for so long and hadn't seen any gods appear, which made it hard for him not to wonder if there was something blocking the power of the gods from entering.

For example, black soil.

Although it was just a guess, Rhodes still raised his head: "Augula, are there many gods in this world?"

"Gods? There should be a lot of them."

After a brief thought, Augla said, "For example, the Sun and Moon Gods, the God of Death, the God of War, the God of Beasts, the God of Demons, the God of Space, and the various elements are all relatively famous, and they basically have their own professional systems."

"In addition to these, there are various less famous and weaker gods, such as the God of Harvest, the Mother Goddess of Nurturing, and even those demigods who call themselves gods. How shameless."

Depend on!
Is that much?

Wouldn’t they all be like wolves and tigers, staring at the Dream Forest?

Now Rhodes suddenly felt a little hopeful. It was because Moon Goddess messed around and accidentally destroyed her own garden, so she gave the forest to him.

This way he wouldn't have to be stared at by so many animals.

After all, various signs indicate that their Moon God is not a troublesome person.

For example, you can raise all kinds of strange creatures in the woods, or make a giant dragon by combining elemental elves and lizards, and there is also the "Guide to Cultivating Gods" which teaches others how to become gods.

It doesn't look like he cares about his own position as a god.

Instead, it's more like... he wishes someone could take away his position as the Moon God?

What a rip off.

If he meets the Moon Goddess again, he will have to ask for an explanation!

"arrive."

Just as I was thinking about it, a shout came from the front.

After nearly half an hour of walking, they finally arrived at the edge of the Elemental Forest, and the ores around them began to increase.

The little ones who came out for the first time immediately ran around excitedly and climbed onto the colorful elemental ores.

Little Stone even lay on it and started eating it bite by bite, until his cheeks were bulging.

Rhode even had doubts. Wouldn't this really break his teeth?
"Okay, no one is allowed to run around. Everyone should carry a piece of ore and then go back."

The older tree elves stepped forward and began to direct everyone's work, looking very motivated.

Because they all knew about Rhodes' plan to build a dream city located in the central area of ​​the woods to accept souls of all races to live in it.

Although it is a bit far-fetched, this grand wish still makes them yearn for it very much.

I even fantasized about the good old days where my body stayed in the sea of ​​forests while my soul entered the dream forest and lived there.

"Yeah!"

At this moment, a shout was heard.

I saw it running towards me, carrying a piece of ore that was several times larger than its body, as if asking for credit.

Seeing its swaying feet, Rhode smiled and said, "Just take the ones that are smaller than yours, and leave the big ones to Augla and the others."

As he said this, he picked up the ore on the little thing's back and asked it to exchange it for a smaller one.

All of a sudden, the little guys scattered and went around to pick out the ore that suited them.

After everyone was selected and regrouped, and after counting the number of people to make sure there were no shortage of people, they turned around and headed back towards the altar.

Each little guy was carrying minerals of varying sizes and looked extremely excited. It was obvious that going out for the first time was a very novel experience for them.

After putting down all the ores, they ran to Rhodes and looked at him eagerly.

Rhodes: ...

So you guys are working so hard just for a reward!

Rhodes didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but he still took out the recently harvested black fruit from his space ring and gave one to each of them.

"Slow down, slow down, no one is allowed to grab, one per person."

The little ones who received the fruit reward immediately smiled happily and ran to other places with the fruit to enjoy them.

When Rhode looked up again, he found that Augla and the others were also staring at him, drooling.

Rhodes had no choice but to give each of them two, and also paid the elves' "wages" at the same time. Instantly, the whole forest was filled with joy.

"Luckily I've saved enough black fruits during this period, otherwise you guys would have eaten us all up." Rhodes complained and went back to take a look at the Moon Spring, which had increased in value compared to yesterday.

He decisively cut off the four side branches of Xiaodou and planted four small trees on the newly expanded land.

A total of eight small trees producing black fruits finally filled the gap in his "salary".

"Xiao Dou, Xiao Dou, it would be great if you were the real Tree of Life, like the one of the elves. How many fruits would you be able to grow?"

Rhodes stood under the Masochistic tree, complaining while dripping a few drops of Moon Spring on it as compensation for cutting off the branches.

But didn't notice.

After his words fell.

A faint fluorescent light suddenly appeared on the surface of the Masochistic little tree, and the mark of the tree god not far away also flickered a few times, echoing each other like breathing.

When he looked up again, he found that Xiaodou had grown greatly and had suddenly reached a height of nearly twenty-five meters.

"Fuck! When did the Moon Fountain become so powerful?"

Rhodes looked at the small tree, then at the bottle in his hand, thinking that even if it was the water of life, the effect was a little too exaggerated.

"Did you hide the nutrients secretly?"

Rhodes grabbed the shaking leaves and questioned.

Xiao Dou: ...

The whole scene was silent.

"Master Rhodes, what are you doing?"

At this time, Augula came over from a distance, looking a little curious.

"Nothing, do you need me for something?" Rhodes asked, letting go of his hand.

"I'm not the one looking for you. The elves said that the hundred-fruits they planted are about to mature, and they want to ask what to do with them."

"Mature so quickly?"

Rhodes was shocked. He calculated that he had only been planting for a few days.

Even though I cultivated it several times during this period, it was a bit too fast.

"I don't know either. They seem to say that this thing is difficult to grow, but it grows very fast, and the forest land has abundant vitality..."

Before Augula could finish his words, Rhodes had disappeared.

After hurriedly arriving at the elves' living area, I saw that the hundred-fruit trees that I had planted before were basically ripe, and were full of blue flowers and fruits.

The elves gathered around with happy expressions on their faces. It was also the first time for them to see so many hundred fruits blooming at the same time.

But before Rhodes could speak, a surprised shout suddenly came from a distance.

"Are those hundred fruits ripe yet? Let me see!"

Yilin, who had just entered the woods, ran over.

When he saw the hundred-fruits hanging on the branches, he looked at Rhodes excitedly: "Lord Rhodes, can you give us this batch of hundred-fruits? We can make hundred-flower wine and a lot of jams!"

"Is that the one I drank yesterday?"

Rhodes remembered the fruit wine he drank in the Elf Empire yesterday and couldn't help smacking his lips.

It tasted really good, but there was just too little of it.

Moreover, when he drank it, the great elf elder next to him looked like he was about to die, which made him wonder if he had drunk someone's treasured treasure.

"Yes, that's the Hundred Flowers Wine I told you about." Yilin said quickly.

"Well, keep the fruits of ten trees for seeds, and pick the rest to make Hundred Flowers Wine. Remember to send me a few more bottles, and you can take the rest for yourselves."

Ten Hundred Flower Trees will produce about 1,500 fruits. Based on a 50% survival rate, there will be more than 700 new Hundred Flower Trees.

Adding the current one hundred or so trees, that makes nine hundred.

Moreover, it would produce a round of fruits every once in a while, unlike wheat which needed to be sown repeatedly, which was more than enough for them to eat.

"Thank you, Lord Rhodes!"

When she heard that they could keep the rest for themselves, Yilin's eyes lit up immediately.

There was no need to waste time talking. He immediately called on his fellow tribesmen to start picking fruits.

Even Amar, who had just joined, came over to help spontaneously. He was no longer as shy as he was at the beginning and had obviously gradually adapted to life here.

Until then.

A group of big tree spirits including Augla ran up to Rhodes with shy looks on their faces.

"Well... Lord Rhodes, we..."

"You guys want Hundred Flowers Wine too?"

Rhodes saw through their little thoughts at a glance.

Because Augula once told him that he had stolen the Hundred Flowers Wine that was treasured by the elders, and then he was hung up and beaten severely.

Poor baby.

How did you survive till now?

Is this the secret of your strong defense?
"Okay, when we have some extra bottles, I'll give you a few more. Remember to bring some back to your elders."

The elders had helped him a lot, and had sent tribesmen to build forests to protect his safety, so it was necessary to give them something to express their gratitude.

After the greedy guys left, a series of experience information kept popping up in front of Rhodes.

[Crops mature, experience points +4]

[Crops mature, experience points +3]

[Crops mature, experience points +4]

……

The experience points given when ripe are based on the degree of growth, so some fruits picked in advance only give 3 experience points.

But even so.

The harvest from more than a hundred hundred fruit trees was enough to allow him to reach the maximum experience point.

[Level upgrade, lv21→lv22]

[Experience value: 24/360]

Swish!
A surge of life energy flows into the body.

Mental strength and magic power became stronger.

Rhodes felt that he should be able to stay in the Elf Empire for a longer time. It must be said that the Hundred Flower Fruit is really a good thing for gaining experience.

Just do this a few more times.

Wouldn't he be able to reach level three soon?
