Chapter 253 Twin Vines
"What did you say? The plan failed?!"
The plane of the undead.
The central area with the most deathly atmosphere.
A tall skeleton in golden armor looked at the escaping lich with a gloomy expression.
For this invasion, they spent a lot of resources and undead before they finally broke through the dimensional barrier.
They were about to develop the entire Giant Kingdom into their base, but now they suddenly told him that they had failed?
"Don't look at me like that!"
The lich snorted coldly, looking extremely angry: "It's all that damn guy's fault. We had a good plan, but he let the giant king escape. I don't know where he got help from, but he ruined our plan. If I hadn't reacted quickly and escaped back, I would have died there!"
He also didn't expect that an Founding Titan would suddenly appear along the way.
Not only did it awaken the Mountain Clan, but it also uprooted the chess pieces they had placed there, destroying all their efforts during this period.
With such a big thing happening, the people who received the news must be on guard, and it won’t be so easy to take action again.
"What a waste!"
The tall skeleton cursed angrily: "We spent so much effort to help her recover her strength, but we can't even handle such a small matter."
"It's no use for you to tell me this." The lich curled his lips in disdain. "What we should consider now is how to explain to the master. Now is the critical time for them to fight for the inheritance of the throne. If we delay his plan, we will all be in trouble!"
When the word "Master" was mentioned, a trace of fear flashed in the lich's eyes, and the tall skeleton trembled all over. He didn't dare to say anything more and quickly thought of a way to remedy the situation.
After a while, he said in a deep voice: "If this plane doesn't work, let's try another one. Anyway, the Lord wants souls. As long as we can collect enough souls, it will be fine. We are already far behind those other guys."
"Also, we must find out the identity of that group of people. We can't just let them ruin our business!"
"Don't worry, I've sent people to investigate secretly, and there should be results soon." The lich's soul fire flickered, and his voice was a little cold.
……
the other side.
Inside the dream forest.
Rhodes regained consciousness and slowly woke up at this time.
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw Augla and Alpha waiting there.
"Master Rhodes, are you okay?"
Ogula spoke hurriedly. They had already learned the general situation of the Giant Kingdom from the returning dark elves, but they still seemed very worried.
After all, such a big thing happened, and it happened several months ago, but they didn't receive any news at all. This is enough to show how secretive those undead were.
"I am fine."
Rhode glanced at them and fell into deep thought again. "This time, it was all thanks to Little Stone. Its blood aura awakened the Mountain Clan. It's a pity that we failed to capture those undead spirits, otherwise we would have forced them to reveal their plans."
"Is there any new discovery?" Alpha asked puzzledly.
"Yeah." Rhode nodded. "When they broke through the plane barrier, I saw the situation over there. It should be a plane that is seriously polluted."
"Ah?" Augula was stunned. "Can those undead survive in a polluted plane?"
"Yes, so this is what I am most worried about. I suspect that the power that pollutes the plane is related to the Undead."
Rhodes' face was solemn, but he actually had one more thing to say.
That is the pollution of the plane, which is very similar to the power of death of the Undead, or even the same power.
He hadn't noticed it before because it was covered by black soil, but now that the black soil has dissipated, he discovered that the pollution in the Dream Forest was exactly the same as that in the Giant Kingdom.
It’s just that the Dream Forest is more serious.
This reminded him of the news he had heard in the Abyss of Death before. The reason why the God of Death was sleeping was to suppress the spread of a certain force. Could it be that he was talking about the force that polluted the plane?
If you think about it this way, a lot of things make sense.
Because the pollution in the Spider Demon Kingdom stopped three hundred years ago, and the God of Death also fell asleep three hundred years ago. This is too much of a coincidence.
So he had reason to suspect that the root of everything was the God of Death, not the Sun God as he had initially guessed!
It seems necessary to go to the depths of the plane to take a look.
With his current strength, he should be able to go deeper.
Thinking of this, Rhode raised his head again and asked, "How is the reconstruction work going on at the Elemental Holy Mountain?"
"It's basically on the right track." Alpha replied.
"So fast?"
"Well, it's mainly because more and more dead souls have entered the woods recently, giving us a lot more manpower."
"Have you solved the manpower problem?" Rhodes' eyes lit up. "In that case, let's start organizing and prepare to clear out the remaining Giant Forest. In a few days, many mountain giants should come to live here."
Of the four areas surrounding the altar, only the Giant Forest remains untouched. Leaving so many black beasts in there is always a hidden danger.
It's a good opportunity to clear out the place as the activity area for the mountain giants, and also to improve the strength of the little guys, so that they can at least have the ability to protect themselves during the upcoming upheaval.
He had a feeling that something big would happen when the God of Death awakened, so he had to speed up his planting and improve his strength.
So very quickly.
Augla and Alpha both took the order and left.
Rhodes got up and went outside to begin cultivating the next batch of seeds, ready to be planted in the newly reclaimed area.
"For the Giant Forest, the things planted must be large. I wonder if it is possible to use sky trees for grafting."
While thinking, he came under the sky tree.
I haven't paid attention to it for a while, but the sky tree has grown to a height of nearly a thousand meters. I can hardly see its top when I stand on the ground.
He had tried to use the vines above to plant before, but failed.
Now that we have the magic of grafting, we can try grafting them with other plants to see if they can survive.
"What kind of thing would be better to graft onto..."
Rhodes looked around, his sight sweeping across the plantation in the distance, and finally fixed on a familiar plant. "Got it!"
His face lit up with joy, and he hurried over and pulled up a dark red vine at the edge of the plantation.
It was the dragon blood vine that he had planted earlier!
I don't know if it's because it's been frequently irrigated with Kaba's urine during this period, but this dragon blood vine has grown exceptionally thick and has almost spread to the entire fence surrounding the forest.
Isn't it difficult for you to survive?
Then I will graft a plant with strong vitality onto you, so you will be able to survive, right?
Do it when you think of it.
Rhodes simply cut off a piece of dragon blood vine and sky tree branches and hurried to the open space.
After sitting down, he raised his arm and the grafting magic lit up, transforming into life energy that wrapped the two objects inside.
Not a moment.
The two vines merged into one another and quickly took root in the ground.
[Planting successful, experience value +5]
Seeing that there was hope, Rhodes raised his other hand and activated the cultivation magic, instantly increasing the growth rate of the vine by fifty times.
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, the thick vines grew upward at a speed visible to the naked eye.
However, this time the grafting did not merge together like before, but two vines, one purple and one dark red, entangled with each other and moved upward.
"Two...two dragons going out to sea?"
Looking at the strange plant in front of him, Rhodes had a dazed expression. He watched it grow taller and taller. It seemed to have inherited the genes of the sky tree. Soon it grew to more than 20 meters.
This was the first time he had seen grafted plants in such a symbiotic relationship, so he looked at them carefully, wanting to see what kind of fruit they could grow, and so he worked even harder to cultivate them.
[Cultivation successful, experience value +2]
……
[Cultivation successful, experience value +3]
……
[Cultivation successful, experience value +2]
……
In just one hour, his experience points increased by more than ten points, and the efficiency was much higher than the previous elemental crops.
Just as the experience was about to reach full value, buds finally bloomed on the twin vines, and fruits slowly hung down.
There were actually red and transparent empty fruits growing on the two types of vines respectively. They were hollow inside, just like small villas hanging on them.
Don't say it.
It really seems to be the case.
Rhodes tried it and found that these fruits had lost the characteristic of independent space, but the skin became extremely strong. It took a lot of effort to break a hole in it.
As long as the fruit grows bigger and is slightly modified, it can become a very good residence for residents or souls to live in, and there are transparent and opaque options to choose from.
"Good stuff!"
Rhodes' eyes lit up. He was thinking about whether he should collect some rent after the renovation was completed.
This one plant can produce a large amount of fruit. If we plant 18,000 of them, won’t it be very fruitful?
In addition, this plant provides good experience and is just right for mass planting in the Giant Forest. Maybe in the future he can really create a real kingdom of the sky for him.
"Can't wait, this is it."
After making the decision, Rhodes directly switched to ripening magic to speed up the ripening of the fruit.
Then they were all picked and made into seeds, ready to start planting after Augla and the others cleaned up the Giant Forest.
This busy work lasted until the afternoon.
It wasn't until a large amount of experience information suddenly popped up in front of him that he finally stopped what he was doing.
[Wheat matures, experience value +1]
[Soybeans are ripe, experience value +1]
[Wheat matures, experience value +1]
[Level upgrade, lv52...]
Needless to say.
It must be the second crop from Druid Forest that's ripe.
Even though hundreds or thousands of ordinary crops only give 1 point of experience now, the number is huge and the base of thousands of acres of land is there.
In the blink of an eye, his experience reached the maximum value, directly rising from level 52 to level 57, and both his mental strength and magic power were greatly improved.
"It's a pity that it only happens once a month. It would be better if it could happen more often."
Feeling his growing strength, Rhodes thought greedily.
This 5-level upgrade may seem impressive, but it is the result of a month of preparation in the cultivation area of the entire Druid Forest.
If you want to upgrade quickly, you have to use the newly planted elemental crops and the newly grafted twin dragons... No, twin vines.
With these two plants, it should be enough to support him to reach the seventh level.
"Lord Rhodes, please come quickly! Something happened to the little black dragon in the Giant Forest!"
Suddenly, a shout was heard in the distance.
Rhodes, who was feeling the change in his strength, looked stern and quickly stood up to look outside.
He remembered that Kaba followed Augla and the others to clear out the black beasts today. Could it be that he encountered a high-level black beast and was injured?
