Chapter 29: Rebirth, Elemental Spirits

Rhodes was amazed.

His eyes were fixed on the black moon in the sky.

He saw it very clearly.

It was because of the residual soul energy of those corpses that dyed a small half of the black moon white, turning it from a full moon to a crescent moon.

Then he clearly felt that the black soil outside seemed to be less agitated, and even the force that tore at his soul had weakened a lot.

"It's them! They are using their soul energy to purify the Black Moon!"

Rhodes' face changed, but he quickly came to his senses, his eyes fixed on the black beast's corpse.

These corpses were originally the guardians of the Dream Forest.

Even after three hundred years of destruction, it still retained a trace of soul, and at the last moment it rushed towards the black moon without hesitation to protect the only remaining fire in the forest.

this moment.

Rhodes was deeply shocked.

I don’t know how to describe this complicated feeling.

Is it really worth it to protect the safety of the forest for three hundred years, even at the cost of one's own soul?
He couldn't comment.

Not qualified to comment.

This may be the gift these predecessors left for him, the latecomer. If there was no Augla today, this would be his only hope of survival!
At this moment, Rhodes felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavy and he felt like he couldn't breathe.

"Lord Rhodes! Are you okay?"

At this time, Augla, who had just finished fighting, rushed back.

His body was covered with wounds and scratches from the battles, and his solid soul had become extremely illusory, as if it would disappear at any moment.

"what happened to you?"

Rhodes was shocked and asked quickly.

"fine."

Ogula smiled and waved his hands: "I have consumed too much soul power, and I have suffered a lot of attacks. I have to go back and recuperate for a while. I can't stay here any longer."

His words were full of regret.

I had been thinking of taking this opportunity to show my abilities and strive to become the second greatest contributor to the forest, but I have to leave so soon.

Rhode understood what he meant, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "If it weren't for you this time, we probably wouldn't be able to hold on. I'll give you a big credit, and you can have as much food as you want next time you come over!"

"Really?"

Augla's body trembled, his eyes gleaming with brilliance.

He was very greedy for the fruit from Lord Rhodes. One fruit was enough to earn him several times the extra money. It was simply incomparable to ordinary things.

This deal is worth it!
"By the way, wait a moment."

Suddenly, Rhodes thought of something, plucked a few leaves from the mutant tree, turned around and ran to the Moon Well.

When he came back, he had a ladle of Moon Spring Water in his hand and handed it over directly.

"This is?"

Augura looked puzzled.

He didn't know that this thing was like holy water to all the Moon God believers, and the elders in the tribe had to offer it up when they saw it.

"It's nothing, just something to heal your wounds. See if it can help you."

"Oh."

Augla didn't think much about it.

He took the water scoop made of leaves and drank it all in one gulp.

But before he could react, his soul suddenly turned into a stream of light and sank into the mark of the tree god in the distance, taking the leaves in his hand away with it.

"Yeah?"

The little thing next to him looked up in confusion, as if it didn't understand why he disappeared and looked a little worried.

"Don't worry, he just went back to recuperate and will be back soon."

According to Augla, his soul cannot leave his body for too long, or he will be lost in the Dreamgrove forever.

This is also a major feature of the Dream Forest, so as to prevent too many foreign souls from disturbing the tranquility of the forest.

As Augla left, Rhodes' expression became more solemn, and he looked up at the black moon in the sky again.

This time the Black Moon incident came too suddenly.

It caught them off guard.

I thought the biggest danger came from the black soil and black beasts, but I didn't expect that such a huge change was hidden on this land.

What is a surprise?

This is such a surprise!

Rhode couldn't hold it in any longer. What kind of mess did the Moon Goddess leave for him?

"A full moon is violent, a waning moon is weak."

"Does this mean that every full moon will experience a black moon?"

Rhodes couldn't help but guess in his heart.

Don't say it.

It's really possible.

My period comes once a month.

Why can't Black Moon do that?
And no matter whether this is the case or not, he has to prepare in advance to avoid being caught off guard like today the next time the black moon comes.

"Let's go and see what's going on at the plantation."

After that, Rhodes brought the little creature to the place where the battle had just been most intense to check the conditions of the plantations and wheat fields.

What made him extremely distressed was.

Although they reacted quickly, several plants were still affected and destroyed by the aftermath of the attack.

Including the wheat seedlings that were eroded by the black soil at the beginning, nearly twenty plants were lost. These were all his hard work.

Not to mention the little things.

Looking at the dead plants, he was about to cry. He pouting his lips, he collected all the scattered leaves and branches, holding them in his arms and refusing to let go.

"You damned bastards, sooner or later I will destroy your entire nest!"

Cursing angrily, Rhodes quickly began to cast spells on those plants that had been severely damaged but still had hope of being saved, to restore their vitality.

Now the black moon has not completely retreated, it is just temporarily suppressed by that soul power.

So when casting the spell, Rhodes could clearly feel that the loss of magic power had become much faster, just like someone was pressing a vacuum cleaner directly on your head.

This feeling of having debuffs all over the body.

The situation was not relieved until a prompt message popped up.

[Cultivation successful, experience value +1]

[Professional level upgrade, lv6→lv7]

……

【Demonized Tree Spirit lv7】

[Occupation: Gardener]

[Experience: 0/70]

[Ordinary magic: vine whip, rain spell]

[Professional Magic: Cultivation]

Swish!
A breath of life surged into the body.

After many days, the upgrade was finally successful.

"At this rate, we should be able to reach level 10 soon."

Feeling that the discomfort in his body was relieved, Rhodes felt much better.

After all, more and more crops are being grown now.

It would be quite difficult for him to cast spells one by one. The consumption of mana alone would be a big problem.

According to his current estimate.

At level 7, his magic limit should be around 70.

Assuming that elementary magic consumes 10 points of magic power per minute, he can only last about seven minutes before he has to stop and slowly recover.

This does not take into account the consumption of mental energy.

Young couples need to rest for a while after communicating their feelings, let alone such a high-intensity magic infusion.

But it would be different if he were to advance to level 10, as his total magic power would increase significantly. Then he would be able to do many things that he couldn't do now.

"Gah~"

While I was thinking, I heard the cry of a raven nearby.

The little creature that was burying the plant corpse with it seemed to have discovered something extraordinary and started calling out continuously.

"what happened?"

Rhodes rushed over after hearing the news.

It was discovered that where they had buried the bodies, thumb-sized spots of light slowly rose up, accompanied by laughter and joy, flying back and forth within the altar area.

[Elemental elves: special elves that breed magical elements. They will only appear under certain conditions. When they reach the lower level of elves, they have a chance to be born with intelligence and derive different attributes.]
