Chapter 156 Wait, I’m also a tree spirit!
Return to the woodlands.
Rhodes ran into Irene, whom he hadn't seen for many days, and she brought him good news. After a few days of hard work, the Hundred Flowers Wine had been completed.
"Her Majesty the Queen has been busy negotiating with other empires recently, so I put ten bottles of Hundred Flowers Wine in the tree house where you live. You can take them anytime."
Yilin was in a very good mood at this time, because she also got two bottles of Hundred Flowers Wine. She showed off in front of her tribe members, which was worth her busy running around these days.
"Have other empires also sent people to you?" Rhodes asked in surprise.
"Yes, after all, the sudden opening of the Elf Empire will definitely attract a lot of attention. It is said that even people from the Kingdom of Death have come." Erin said while drinking water to replenish her magic power.
"Kingdom of Death?" Alpha appeared beside him in an instant.
"What's wrong? What's the problem?" Rhodes looked at him.
"Nothing, I just found traces of the necromancer in the direction of the Giant Tree Alliance when I was out recently. It seems that he came from somewhere else."
Alpha flies very fast and has been checking the situation in the surrounding area recently. Even the Giant Tree Alliance, which is farther away, can be reached with difficulty.
This made Rhodes realize that there was a black soil city over there that was larger than the Crescent Canyon.
"Forget it, don't worry about them. The most important thing for us now is to quickly get the Dragon God Seal and expand the forest first."
"That's right. It's still far from here anyway. We just need to pay a little attention."
Alpha nodded silently. If those people dared to disturb him in his quest to retrieve the Dragon God's Mark, he wouldn't mind burning the Giant Tree Alliance with a breath of dragon flame.
So he ignored it and went back to his own territory to plan his nest.
……
the other side.
Compared to the comfort on the altar.
At this moment, the atmosphere in Crescent Canyon seemed much more solemn.
Brent gathered with his tribesmen, his face full of worry.
"Master Sean, the people we sent out to gather information have returned. A team of necromancers has indeed appeared in the Giant Tree Alliance recently. There are at least five level five necromancers, and we cannot rule out the possibility that there are some close to level six."
"In this case, there are far more Level 5s over there than us, and the situation is a bit unfavorable for us."
at the begining of.
Because the gap in top combat power between the two sides is not so big as to crush one another, they have always maintained a delicate balance.
I thought that after the last incident with the sacrificial formation, the Giant Tree Alliance would be severely damaged and would not have the energy to consider them.
Unexpectedly.
So many forces suddenly emerged and disrupted the balance.
The Giant Tree Alliance, whose strength has greatly increased, will definitely not miss the opportunity to plunder the Crescent Canyon, and may even try to annex them.
They had rejected the Giant Tree Alliance's recruitment at the beginning, and the other party would definitely not give up so easily.
After all, on the black soil, population is a resource!
"It's really difficult to handle."
The old wizard at the side frowned and said, "Don't forget that we also have a tribe of undead living here. At the beginning, they also agreed to join the Giant Tree Alliance just like the orcs. It is hard to guarantee that they will not have other intentions."
Ever since the orcs rebelled last time, the racial alliance of the entire Crescent City has actually been in name only.
Now they are basically fighting on their own and trying their best to win over those external forces.
“This may not be a bad thing for us.”
At this time, the leader Brent finally spoke: "From the news in the past few days, those who came from the outer periphery of Black Soil are not as united as we thought."
"You mean, there might be a fight between them?" Someone immediately understood what he meant.
"That's about right. Don't forget why those people came here. They are just fighting for resources. When it comes to interests, no relationship is unbreakable. We just need to wait and see and avoid getting dragged into it."
These people who came from the outside of the black soil were less affected by the black soil, and their reproduction speed was much faster than theirs. Their strength was simply beyond their ability to contend with.
So the only thing they can do now is to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between the two tigers, hoping that the fight between these people will not affect them.
For example, bringing the conflict outside Crescent Canyon.
Thinking of this, Brent finally made up his mind: "Go, announce all the locations where the meteorites fell on the Black Soil Plain, and try to let people in Crescent City and the Giant Tree Alliance receive the news."
"Is this...not too high a price to pay?"
The people around looked at each other.
You know, that is a meteorite that can be regarded as the source of life. If they just give it up like that, how will they survive in the future?
"What else? Do you think we have the ability to protect these meteorites?" Brent asked. "Instead of being watched by a bunch of people, it's better to release them and attract those guys to fight for them. This way, we can at least buy some time, and if we're lucky, we can even weaken their strength."
The Black Soil Plain is so vast that it would take several days to cross the center by normal travel. Finding a meteorite is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
But as long as they provide the specific location, it will definitely attract a lot of people, especially outsiders.
There will definitely be a fight at that time.
have to say.
Although this move of cutting off the source of the problem is extremely costly, it is the best way they can currently come up with to protect themselves, which makes others feel moved.
After discussing for a while, they finally unanimously agreed to this method. Brent made the final decision and started sending people out to spread the news.
The entire black soil plain surrounding the Death Forest fell into turmoil again.
……
And at this time.
On the altar of the moon goddess.
Rhodes, who was cultivating plants, soon waited for Suramar and his patrol team to arrive and brought a large number of Moon Stones.
"This time we found a small mine during our patrol and collected more than a hundred pieces of Luna Stone. Lord Rhodes, do you think it's enough?"
Suramar and his men piled the Moon Stones on the open space, almost forming a small hill.
"That's enough. It's definitely enough. I didn't expect you to bring so many this time."
According to Rhodes's estimation, it would be good to get 10 to 20 dollars per trip, but he didn't expect it to be so much.
With these Moon Stones, there will be no problem in repairing the Tree of Life statue, and there will even be some left over.
"Here, take these three thousand kilograms of food back to feed the tribesmen." Rhodes took out the packed wheat and cabbage.
After the last harvest, he had stored up nearly 30,000 kilograms of food, which was just a drop in the bucket for him. But when Suramar and the others saw the full bag of food, they were still very excited.
"Thank you, Lord Rhodes! We will go back first then."
Three thousand kilograms of food would be enough for them to eat for half a month if they were to eat frugally, and that was three meals a day.
They had never dared to imagine such treatment before, and their joy was beyond words.
They immediately used the space props given to them by the Great Elder to load up the food and hurried back in the direction they came from.
After they left, Rhodes brought the Moon God Stone to the tree god statue and piled all of it on it.
All of a sudden.
The light shines brightly.
As the Moon God Stone was absorbed, the Tree God Statue was also repaired quickly.
Branches extended from the trunk, and in a blink of an eye they were covered with dense leaves, turning into a huge tree statue.
hum-
The vast and boundless breath of life spreads out.
The shadow of the sacred white jade tree reappeared, standing proudly between heaven and earth.
This time, the phantom was more solid than any previous one and looked as if it were real.
What’s even more strange is that with the appearance of the phantom, a faint fluorescent light appeared on the plants in the entire forest.
Thousands of strands of light turned into silk threads connecting the shadows, as if all nations had come to pay tribute and submit to this sacred tree.
finally.
The energy of all the plants gathered together and poured down towards the statue of the Moon Goddess below.
The Moon Goddess statue, which was originally built by Rhodes with random stones, was also being repaired at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it already had a hint of life.
"I see. It turns out that the Moon God statue can only automatically repair itself if the Demigod statue is completely repaired. No wonder it can't absorb the Moon God Stone."
Seeing this scene, Rhodes suddenly realized and finally knew how to repair the Moon Goddess statue.
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard the screams of Augla and Irene from afar.
"Advanced! I've reached level six!"
"Me too! I feel the breath of the tree spirit!"
"The tree god has revived!"
Excited shouts echoed throughout the woods.
Augla, Irene, and even all the direct descendants of the Tree of Life, have a thread connecting them to the phantom of the tree god, and their aura continues to surge.
"What happened?"
Rhodes was startled and ran over to check.
As expected, Augla and Irene both successfully reached the sixth level, and the strength of the others who had not advanced also increased dramatically.
Even the little creatures playing hide-and-seek in the woods soared to near the third level and were looking at the silk threads on their bodies with curiosity.
"and many more!"
"What about me? I'm also a tree spirit! Why didn't I react?"
Rhodes looked left and right and found that among all the natural life in the entire forest, only he had no thread, and he suddenly became anxious.
No.
Old Tree, are you treating me differently?
Why did they all advance, but I didn’t even have one?
As if in response to his words, the shadow of the tree god slowly dissipated, turning into fluorescent light that fell all over the sky and merged into the plants.
For an instant.
All plants grew rapidly.
Dense experience information pops up.
[Crops mature, experience points +1]
[Crops mature, experience points +4]
【Crops mature, experience...】
Rhodes opened his mouth and looked outside.
The wheat and cabbage that would have taken several days to mature, as well as the fruits and mushrooms that had just been planted, all matured in a short period of time.
His experience bar skyrocketed like a rocket.
[Level upgrade, lv22→lv23]
[Level upgrade, lv23→lv24]
[Level upgrade, lv24→lv25]
Upgrade three levels in a row!
Rhodes was shocked when he felt the huge amount of magic and mental power surging in his body.
All the plants matured instantly, allowing him to reach level 25 in one go, and even gain more than half a level of experience!
【Demonized Tree Spirit lv25】
[Occupation: Gardener (Level 2)]
[Experience: 311/450]
[Normal: Light of Life (forbidden spell), Thorn Guard, Life Shield...]
[Occupation: Cultivation, Harvest, Ripening]
"This... this is right!"
Rhodes slapped his thigh.
I just want to ask how can we treat them differently?
You finally got the point.
Although the improvement was not as dramatic as that of Augla and the others, which went directly from level five to level six, it was still an improvement of three small levels, and one step closer to level three.
