Chapter 7 Shit!

Fruit of life.

It is said that this fruit can only be grown on the tree of life, the totem of the elves.

One can bring a person back to life and help him appreciate nature.

It is the greatest treasure of the elves.

But the problem is.

More than two hundred years ago.

The elves' tree of life no longer bears fruit, so even if you want to pray, you won't get any.

Now the Moon God directly rewarded him with two of them, which shocked and excited Thomas.

As long as these two fruits are there.

His hope of advancement grew again.

"My efforts must have been praised by the Moon Goddess!"

Thomas' old face flushed red, and he carefully put the fruits away. At the same time, he became more determined to collect seeds for the Moon Goddess.

The only pity is.

He is currently unable to establish a stable connection with the Dream Forest.

Because the induction is too weak.

Even with his current mental strength, he can only interpret a very small part of the will of the gods intermittently. He hopes not to make the gods unhappy.

After checking that nothing is missing.

Thomas took a deep breath, and the corners of his mouth finally curled up.

If those old guys knew that I had received the gift from the Moon Goddess, and it was such a precious fruit of life, they would probably go crazy with jealousy, right?
I happen to be free today.

Go and tease them.

After thinking about it, Thomas opened the door and walked out.

As soon as I arrived at the first floor of the tower, I met the apprentice who came to report, and told him about the baron's visit.

"Baron Wright?"

"The new Earth Knight?"

Thomas frowned.

He wanted to refuse directly, but considering the powerful force of the Temple behind him, he changed direction and went to the lounge.

The father and daughter, who were chatting, stood up hurriedly when they saw him come in.

"Sir Thomas!"

"You're here."

The words are full of respect.

Especially the Baron.

I thought that after my advancement, the gap between me and Thomas would be greatly narrowed.

But look at it now.

The other party was filled with magical power.

It is actually even stronger than what I saw at the beginning.

There is no sign that his life is coming to an end as rumored.

"Sir Thomas, you... have advanced?"

The Baron couldn't help asking.

Thomas glanced at him and smiled slightly: "No, I just got some opportunities. Sit down and tell me what you want to see me for."

The father and daughter were skeptical.

But he didn’t ask any more questions.

He began to explain his purpose.

After listening.

Thomas fell into deep thought.

"Withering Curse? This is indeed a bit tricky... You should know that life magic requires a huge amount of magic power, and I'm not sure it will be effective."

"I see."

The baron quickly replied: "We will do our best to provide all the magic power you consume, and we have also prepared generous rewards. We only ask that you come to my territory."

It’s different now than before. Once the magic power is used up, it can be restored by meditating for a night.

After the disappearance of the Dream Forest, no new elemental elves were born, and the magic elements withered away. Therefore, the only way to restore magic power is through magic equipment and alchemical potions, or one can only wait for an extremely long period of natural recovery.

So generally.

Magicians try not to use magic as much as possible.

Of course Thomas would not say that he had the fruit of life.

Just one and the Baroness would wake up immediately.

His eyes moved as he thought of something, and he said, "If I remember correctly, Baron Wright once saved a druid and received a staff from him..."

The level of that staff is not low.

It is said to be made of dragon blood vine and painted with fifth-level natural magic, which can greatly enhance the affinity of natural magic.

If we offer it to the Moon Goddess, perhaps she will be able to bestow more blessings.

Thomas couldn't help but think in his heart.

If the Baron knew what he was thinking, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood.

You know, that staff is equivalent to their clan treasure, and they are reluctant to use it on weekdays, but in the end it is only worthy of being used as a sacrifice?

But when he thought of his unconscious wife, the baron finally gritted his teeth and said, "Sure! As long as you can cure my wife, the staff will be yours!"

"Great, let's get going."

Thomas is not an unreasonable person.

After instructing the apprentices not to enter the top of the tower, he got on the carriage and left with the baron's team.

……

the next morning.

Rod prayed his usual prayers.

However, when he finished praying and stood up, he found a staff in front of him.

The staff made of blood-colored vines, with a huge black protrusion on the top, floated quietly in front of him.

"What the hell?"

“Shouldn’t we give you seeds?”

Rhodes was startled by the sudden appearance of this huge thing.

I thought the seeds of something else could be this big.

I’m afraid that when the Moon Goddess was taking a bath, she confused her little toys and seeds, so she hopes she doesn’t get any sticky stuff stuck to her.

Take the staff.

Rhodes began to observe carefully.

To his surprise, he could actually see the staff's information.

【Dragon Blood Vine Staff lv52】

[Attribute 1: Magic Recovery +8]

[Attribute 2: Casting speed +10%]

[Magic: Nature's Blessing]

[Requirements: Fifth-tier magic profession]

Shit!

A piece of shit.

Where can he get the level 52, fifth-order magic system requirements?

It would be better to use the wood taken from the bodies of the companions, at least it can be used as firewood, instead of wasting the opportunity to transport a large object.

Cursing, Rhodes pried open the protrusion on the top of the staff and took a look inside.

This sight actually surprised him.

At the top of the tangled vines, there was an oval object the size of an egg and shaped like a thorn ball. It looked like a seed.

Rhodes suddenly realized.

It turns out the seeds are hidden here.

No wonder he got a magic wand.

This seed should not be simple to be able to serve as the magic core of an advanced staff.

After some effort, Rhodes finally succeeded in getting it out.

Then he threw the staff aside, ran happily to the altar, and planted it next to the extra seedlings.

The little creature that was digging the soil saw the staff, looked at it curiously, picked it up and stuck it into the soil, using it as a protective fence for the seedlings.

A fifth-level staff that drives countless people crazy.

It was ruthlessly dismembered and returned to its original appearance.

[Cultivation successful, experience value +1]

[Professional level upgrade, lv3→lv4]

As soon as the seeds were planted, a prompt appeared in front of Rhodes.

After several days of unremitting efforts, he finally reached level 4 and his total magic power increased again.

【Demonized Tree Spirit lv4】

[Occupation: Gardener]

[Experience: 0/40]

[Ordinary magic: None]

[Professional Magic: Cultivation]

With his current strength.

If I encounter the black beast again, I shouldn't be as embarrassed as before. I will just fight it until my magic power is exhausted.

And what made Rhodes happy was...

Today, the Moon Spring seemed to be rising faster than before, and was about to overflow from the small pit in the middle.

Although it is still pitifully small.

But it is enough to deal with some emergencies.

Maybe it was because the Moon Goddess saw how hard he worked to maintain the forest that she gave him a special "salary" increase?

Rhodes guessed silently in his heart.

Just in time.

A soft light comes on.

A faint breath suddenly emanated from the Moon Goddess statue, which had been silent.
