Chapter 262 The First Born
After sensing the arrival of other gods, Rhodes spent the next few days traveling back and forth between the woods and the new plane.
With his continuous efforts, more and more priests began to emerge in the two tribes of Huang'e and Manshi, and the number of people who believed in the Moon God increased a lot more than at the beginning, gradually forming a mature belief system.
“I don’t know how far the people sent by other kingdoms of God have progressed.”
Inside the statue, Rhodes' consciousness muttered to itself, looking in the direction where the previous auras appeared.
Those auras came in many days later than him. Even if they moved faster, they probably had just found the right people to spread their faith.
But even so, he did not dare to take it lightly and still worked hard to develop believers here.
"It seems necessary to speed up the progress."
While thinking, Rhodes looked at a planting area on the edge of the Desolate Tribe.
Those lands were specially brought back from outside by the orc warriors when the wind of resurgence blew. They can be used to grow food crops, but the yield is a bit low.
After all, the orcs are not good at planting.
But this is not a problem for Rhodes. As a professional gardener, he is very confident in his planting methods.
This is also his current advantage, which enables his believers to develop rapidly and establish faith one step ahead of other kingdoms of God.
As long as there is enough food, why worry that believers will not develop?
Especially in this plane where food is extremely scarce, it is a huge advantage for him.
Think of this.
Rhodes' consciousness left the statue and arrived above the planting area of the Desolate Tribe.
At this time, many orcs were busy below, scattering the seeds they had collected earlier. They looked a bit like some kind of sorghum seeds.
It’s just that the seeds are very shriveled, and you can tell at a glance that the survival rate is not high. No wonder the yield is so low and they have to go out hunting frequently.
Rhodes wanted to help them, but his current faith strength could only allow his consciousness to descend. He couldn't cast spells for a long time to improve the land. He had to think of a suitable method.
"Have it!"
Suddenly, he looked at the priests on the altar next to him who were performing a prayer ceremony for sowing.
With a thought, the statue shone brightly, and the shadow of a moon slowly rose, shining on the land.
It was the second-level magic, Moonlight Magic, that he had learned before.
The purpose of this magic is just to provide lighting.
However, while casting the spell, he secretly blended a drop of moon spring water into the soil.
Instantly, a strong vitality spread out, shocking the priests so much that they all looked up.
"It's revealed! The Moon God has revealed himself!"
"Look! The seeds we planted are starting to sprout!"
“It really sprouted. This is a miracle!”
The exclamations one after another immediately attracted Barom and others who were processing dried meat. They looked in shock at the rapidly sprouting land and the phantom of the moon floating above.
When the moonlight faded and the shadows disappeared, the originally barren land became fertile, and 90% of the seeds planted before sprouted.
“How could so many of them survive?”
Barom looked a little incredulous.
You know, in previous years, it was considered good if half of the seeds they planted could germinate, but now the number has nearly doubled.
Looking at the vibrant seedlings, he couldn't help but smile.
Because in this way, they will have a secure supply of food for this year, and even have some surplus, so they don't have to go out hunting every day at such a risk of their lives.
What surprised him even more was that not only did the previously reclaimed land become fertile, but even the pollution in the surrounding land had receded and could be used to grow other crops.
At least before the next gray storm comes, they will be able to have an unprecedented bumper harvest, and expanding the size of the tribe is no longer a dream!
Gradually.
Waves of faith power flew out from them and gathered towards where Rhodes was, making his spiritual consciousness more solid.
It was somewhat beyond his expectation that he would gain so much faith just by improving the land.
"Now we just have to wait for the tribe to develop slowly and attract more people."
Rhodes' consciousness floated in the air, muttering to himself.
After eavesdropping for a few days, he learned that there were not only two tribes in this area, the Huang'e and the Manshi, but countless tribal communities of all sizes.
These tribes have always been at odds with each other, and often fight wars for resources, so from time to time displaced orcs flee here.
Even those weak tribes would be annexed by other large tribes, which was a common occurrence.
The Huang'e tribe once annexed several small tribes in the surrounding areas to reach its current size.
Rhodes also knew that this kind of thing could not be rushed.
After taking a walk around the tribe and finding no problems, he quickly withdrew his consciousness and returned to the woods.
Because just now, a lot of experience information popped up in front of him.
[Twin vines planted successfully, experience value +5]
[Twin vines planted successfully, experience value +5]
[Twin vines planted successfully, experience value +5]
……
[Level upgrade, lv57→lv58]
……
The seeds planted in the Giant Forest have sprouted!
Rhodes was delighted when he saw the message. He had asked people to bring quite a few seeds over. Based on 5 experience points for each seed, it would definitely be enough for him to level up a few levels.
So he just stayed on the altar and didn't go anywhere.
as predicted.
As time went by, Rhodes' experience began to soar. Almost every once in a while, a twin vine would sprout and a prompt would pop up in front of him.
Just after noon, the experience point reached the maximum value, and it rose from level 58 to level 59 in a flash, and then continued to rise.
It was almost dark when he finally received the long-awaited message.
[Twin vines planted successfully, experience value +5]
[Level upgrade, lv59→lv60]
[Advanced requirements have been met, advancing...]
"Level 6!"
Feeling the power surging into his body, Rhodes was ecstatic.
Although it is not like the upgrade from level 4 to level 5, from a mid-level profession to a high-level profession, it is at least the limit that ordinary people can achieve.
Going one step further, that is a legendary hero who surpasses the limits of his profession. To be honest, he is still a little looking forward to what a legendary gardener is like.
As for the sixth level, I heard from Erin and Augla that their fifth-level talents had been greatly enhanced.
Irene's range was tripled to five times, and Augla directly awakened the prototype of the domain, increasing the concealment effect.
I don’t know how his fifth-level talent will be enhanced.
While thinking.
The surging power in the body finally subsided.
[Advanced successfully, current level: Level 6]
[Experience value: 5/3000]
[Talent Enhancement: The occupational magic bonus effect is increased from the maximum of 50 times to 100 times, the range is doubled, and the effect can be reversed. ]
"A hundred times?!"
Rhodes was so shocked that the whole tree was stunned. Are you sure you didn't add an extra zero?
What does a hundred-fold growth rate mean?
With this addition, the growth of ordinary plants can be seen directly with the naked eye.
That's nothing.
The most important thing is the harvest magic. The one hundred times yield is horrifying. It is hard for him to imagine what the effect would be if it were added to other magic or even living people.
Needless to say, the range has doubled. Now he feels that he can cover an area of 100 meters.
What puzzled him most was the last sentence.
"Reverse effect? What does that mean?"
Rhode calmed down and tried to cast cultivation magic on the land in front of him. Then he was surprised to find that he could freely control the growth speed.
As soon as I thought of the word "rebellion", I tried to reduce the growth rate to the lowest level, even much lower than twice the original rate.
Followed by.
A strange scene happened.
The weeds on the open space that were covered by the magic range began to shrink rapidly, and in the blink of an eye they turned into small grass seedlings, with a tendency to shrink back into the ground and turn back into seeds.
"Reverse growth!"
Rhodes exclaimed, his face full of disbelief.
The counter-effect mentioned in the last sentence actually reverses the effect of the cultivation magic, turning accelerated growth into reverse growth.
Doesn't that mean.
Is it the same for other professional magic?
Think about it.
Rhodes raised his hand again.
He cast several other professional magic spells at another weed, and just as he expected, the effects were reversed.
"correct."
Suddenly, Rhodes thought of something, and he activated a treeman summon directly, while also covering it with a cultivation magic with a reverse effect.
When the light faded, the two-meter-tall tree men that were supposed to be summoned turned into small tree monsters less than half a meter tall, and even their levels shrank to level three.
hiss--
Is it really possible?
This is a good way to trick people.
Take advantage of others when they are casting spells, and turn high-level magic into low-level magic. Originally a large number of things were summoned, but in the end only one or two are left. The opponent will probably be completely confused.
It just so happens that the elemental elves on the orc plane don't listen to him, so this method should be able to play a significant role. Even if he encounters a seventh-level elf, he will be able to fight.
I can only say that this talent enhancement came at a very timely moment.
"Strange, why is my name not on it?"
After studying the new ability, Rhodes summoned the fame list and took a look, only to find that his name was not on it.
He originally wanted to secretly use his "privilege" to upgrade himself directly to level seven, but after searching for a long time, he couldn't see his name.
Logically speaking, after doing so many things, he should have accumulated quite a bit of fame.
"Could it be that the way a gardener advances is different? It can't be that the sixth level is the highest level, right?"
Not to mention, Rhodes was actually a little worried.
After all, it is a support profession, so it is not surprising that the level cap is lower than that of the main combat profession.
If he really reaches the sixth level, wouldn't he never be able to have the title of awesome in his entire life?
As if in response to his thoughts, an interface suddenly popped up.
【Hero Title】
Senior Gardener, Moon God Messenger, Woodland Manager, Dream City Lord, Dragon Knight, World Guardian, First Born...
Huh?
I have so many titles?
and many more.
What are the World Guardians and the Firstborn?
Rhodes suddenly noticed the last two titles. He could understand the others, but he didn't understand these two. They seemed to be related to the World Tree Seedling?
He raised his head and looked at the seedlings growing in the Moon Well with a look of suspicion.
This broken sapling deserves the title of hero?
Thinking of this, he reached out and clicked on the two titles, and two pieces of information popped up one after another.
[World Guardian: Unknown, gain corresponding abilities after reaching the seventh-level legend.]
[First Born: The first life when the world was born, the others are unknown. ]
unknown.
It's all fucking unknown.
Then Rhode tried to look at the remaining titles, and most of them had clear effects.
For example, senior gardeners can improve plant affinity, and city lords can increase faith acquisition. These are relatively common titles and are not as good as dragon knights, which can at least slightly increase the speed of dragon mounts.
According to his previous guess, the information he saw before his eyes was left for him by the Moon Goddess to prevent him from being completely in the dark when he first arrived.
Since the effect is unknown, it means that even the power of the Moon God cannot detect the origins of these two titles. They must be very powerful titles!
Because the legendary hero title in this world has a very mature operating logic.
It is not that you can have the above bonus effects only after obtaining the title, but that you can only obtain the title after you have the effect.
For example, Augla's "Demon Trampler".
Because countless demons died at his hands, he became "famous" among the demons. When facing him, their momentum would be three points weaker, which would produce a suppressive effect.
"Forget it. It doesn't hurt to have more titles anyway."
Seeing that he couldn't figure out anything, Rhodes was too lazy to waste any more time. He turned back to the altar and continued to familiarize himself with his upgraded body. The sky outside gradually darkened.
……
Silent all night.
When Rhodes woke up again, he just saw Augla and the little thing rushing back from outside chattering.
Especially the small stuff.
As soon as he entered the woods, he hurried up to him, jumping around as if to seek credit.
"what happened?"
Rhode looked puzzled, and then he noticed the change in the little creature's aura, and was immediately shocked: "You have reached the sixth level?"
puff!
Rhodes almost vomited blood.
It would be fine if Kaba reached the seventh level before him, after all, he had the inheritance of the Dragon God.
Nowadays even the little things are advancing so quickly, it's outrageous!
"It seems that he was able to advance so quickly because he had the Guardian's power mark on him. We were also shocked when we saw it this morning."
Augula on the side spoke up.
Although the little thing had been stimulated by Kaba's promotion to the seventh level these days and had been with them outside to clear out the black beasts, it was still a bit beyond their expectations that it would be promoted to the sixth level so quickly.
In the end, it was Alpha who was sharp-minded and told them the key, and they learned the reason.
"The Guardian's Mark?"
Rhodes was stunned after hearing this, and suddenly remembered that when he first came to the woods, he did say that he would appoint the little thing as the guardian of the woods. At that time, the Moon Goddess statue also reacted and injected a force into the little thing's body.
Is it because of that?
"Well, I don't know what it means." Augura shrugged. "Anyway, Alpha said that guardians advance along with the ones they protect."
"So that's how it is... Then there's no running away."
Rhodes' expression became constipated.
Do you hear this is human speech?
Just as others advance, you follow suit. Isn't that cheating?
Needless to say, he knew that this must be related to his advancement last night, so the little thing that served as the guardian also advanced along with him.
I was wondering how it is possible that a little guy like you with no power, no influence, and no backing can level up faster than the descendants of demigods. It turns out that you have been gaining experience points all the time.
And he is using his experience!
"Since you have reached level six, have you realized any talents?" Rhodes looked at the little thing.
"Yeah?"
There is a big question mark on the little thing's head.
But he reacted immediately and pointed at Augla next to him.
Suddenly, a violent aura erupted from Augla's body. The seventh-level aura suddenly surged and was rapidly approaching the eighth level.
"Is this... a talent enhancement?" Rhodes said in surprise.
"It's more than just an ordinary buff." Augla interrupted, "What he realized is a racial group buff, which is effective for all tree spirits, and the effect is extremely exaggerated."
Rule!
After hearing his words, Rhodes instantly thought of a word.
He didn't expect that the little thing could actually comprehend such a powerful talent. This is definitely a huge improvement for the War Giant Tree Legion!
