"At first, there were just a lot of low-level tree spirits dying in this war, and then the war intensified, and I don't know when, after the first ancient tree of war fell in the forest, we no longer have a way to control the hatred and fear in our hearts, our life is so long, all the ancient trees of war are not willing to become losers in this war.""
This war has been going on on in the Hiero plane for hundreds of years, and the more powerful the War Ancient Tree, the easier it is to be surrounded by the combined efforts of other War Ancient Trees, they often die in the early stage of the war, but those young War Ancient Trees that are the least threatening can live a little longer.""
In those chaotic times, there were several times when I thought my life was coming to an end, but in the end I was lucky to survive.""
Finally, when the World Tree returned from the Outlands and his divine consciousness and power returned to his body, he saw the devastated Hiero Plane, only to find that the Hiero Plane had almost become a ruin, and nearly four hundred War Ancient Trees and tens of thousands of Tree Spirits died in this war, and our Ancient Tree Clan also fell in this civil war.""
It's a pity that the life of the World Tree was about to come to an end at that time, and he used his last bit of strength to quell the war, imprisoning the forty-nine ancient war trees that survived the war on the earth with magic, and limiting our ability to walk with a huge magic array, so that we can live in all corners of this forest to prevent us from fighting again."
The War Tree seems to be telling a very old story, and apparently he is one of them, sealed in this forest by the magic of the World Tree."
Is that World Tree dead?
And where did the wreckage of his body go?
Did it become the Pillar Mountain of the Hiero Plane after death?
”I couldn't help but ask.In the Black Forest of the Hiero plane, I have found no remnants of the World Tree."
Those pillar mountains are just the unique landforms of this plane, not the transformation of the World Tree after death."
The Ancient Tree of War said to me slowly.He blinked his huge eyes, like two searchlights flickering in a fog shroud.He became a little confused, and said to me uncertainly, "I don't know, it probably went to a distant star field, and it is said that it has found a hiding place at that time, and it intends to hide its body in the turbulence of time, so that those old enemies will not snatch it after its death." ”Listening to the War Ancient Tree say this, it made me think that Xinliu Valley is not in the turbulence of time, but there is a tide of time there every ten years, and it is only during that time that Xinliu Valley will be connected to the outside world.The Ancient Tree of War said, "Before it left the Hiero Plane, in order to allow the Hiero Plane to recuperate, it plunged all of our Ancient War Trees into an endless slumber, and I feel that it should have left the Hiero Plane with its main body after we fell asleep. ”Thinking of the Nine-Segment Floating Mountain Range in Xinliu Valley, I couldn't help but ask the War Ancient Tree, "Did that World Tree take away an entire mountain range?"
”The Ancient Tree of War became a little dazed again, and he pondered for a moment, then replied, "Perhaps!
It's been changed beyond recognition, and I can't remember what the forest was like anymore. ”With his thick, huge arm, he lifted us up to the canopy, and we stood at the top of the hundred-meter-high canopy, looking around for a bird's-eye view of the huge shallow lake and the Black Forest, but it was too far away to be shrouded in a faint fog to see clearly.The ancient tree of war said to me: "This is the whole picture of this forest in my eyes, imprisoned in this dust swamp for so many years, my memory has become a blank, if it wasn't for this promotion, let me peek into the dust in the depths of the memory, I'm afraid I can't remember the previous things." ”His voice was like rolling thunder, and every time he spoke, I felt as if there was a rolling thunder exploding under my feet.The Ancient War Tree continued to me, "I tried to use my spiritual power to awaken the other Ancient War Trees sleeping in the Black Forest, and only eleven of the forty-nine Ancient War Trees that had been sealed at the beginning responded. ”Hearing him say this, I thought that the Key of Power was a token to connect with other ancient trees of war, so I said, "This is the secret of the Key of Power?"
”The Ancient Tree of War once again held us up in front of his eyes and said to me: "While the World Tree sealed us, it also gave each of us a key of strength to the Ancient Tree of War, and he hoped that one day in the future, a strong man could be born in the plane of Hiero, and when he was recognized by all the Ancient Trees of War, as long as the key of power in the hands of all the Ancient Trees of War was put together, it was said that he could lift our seal." ”Having said all this, it was only at this point that I understood the role of that key of power."
It turns out that this key of power is the key to breaking the seal of bondage!"
I said to the War Tree, "But after so many years, so many War Trees have died, where can I find the key to power in their hands!"
”The War Ancient Tree said that forty-nine ancient trees were originally sealed in this deep forest, but now he can only contact eleven of them, so it means that the whereabouts of the eleven power keys can be traced according to this clue, and as for the other power keys, I am afraid that they can only be found slowly, but in my opinion, this is an impossible task."
In fact, it is also a good choice to die of old age on this island in the middle of the lake."
The War Ancient Tree said slowly.It is not known how many years it will take for an ancient tree to die of old age, and it is said that their life is as eternal as time."
But you gave me the key to power."
I looked down at the emerald green leaf that hung around my neck and said to it.I reached out and took the Key of Power off my neck and said, "I'm sorry, I don't have the ability to help you find the rest of the Key to Power for the time being, maybe you can wait for me to get rid of these things around you, and then I can help you find the other Key of Power." ”The Ancient Tree of War did not take back this key of power, it said to me, "It was only a token for you to take it to the Green Valley Jungle in the first place, but now you should keep it as a souvenir, no one can gather forty-nine keys of power anyway." ”I was silent for a moment, then looked up and asked him, "I'm going to the Green Valley Forest, do you need me to bring any message to that Mr.
Shuweng?""
The War Ancient Tree didn't speak."
If not, then I'll go first!"
I said.It turned out that this key of power turned out to be the key left by a world tree on the Hiero plane a long time ago to break the seal.Being able to hear the murmurs of the dryads in the Black Forest may be one of the abilities that come with this key of power.Seeing that I had taken my leave to it, the Ancient Tree of War had lowered me and Katerina, the Minotaur Ruka, to the ground of the island, and we jumped off our huge arms.The two Hiero maidens were waiting quietly on the island in the middle of the lake, and the four Gubolai horses stood peacefully on the grass beside them, bowing their heads and grazing.Lakeside, meadows, maidens, horses.We said goodbye to the ancient trees of war, left the small island in the middle of the lake in the mud swamp, and walked south along the trails in the Black Forest.After five nights of continuous travel, I finally saw the edge of the Green Valley Forest on the sixth day.I could feel the dryads in the forest welcoming us.Through the message of the tree spirits, I found Karantso and Justus in the Green Valley Jungle, who were staying in the eastern part of the Green Valley Forest with four hundred barbarian slave warriors and one hundred orc construct warriors, surrounding the spider camp in the eastern part of the Green Valley, and suppressed the Nibru spider people in the spider camp and did not dare to come out.In addition, 3,000 El Oro native warriors were also in the area, fighting in conjunction with the orc warriors of Karantso.The indigenous warriors set some traps in the dense forest, and with the help of the dryads in the green valley forest, they can kill some lone spider-man warriors in the dense forest with their standard crossbows and short flying spears.Occasionally, the indigenous warriors meet some spider-man warriors' five-person patrol team, and they can also set up ambushes in the forest, although the combat effectiveness of the indigenous warriors is not too strong, but they are native to this forest, and they are extremely familiar with the environment here.I took Katerina straight to the eastern part of the jungle and found Karantso's secret camp in the eastern part of the green valley jungle.This is a very dense red pine forest, the forest is full of seventy or eighty meters high giant pines, some indigenous warriors hidden in all corners of the pine forest, after our group entered this forest area, even if we walked into their sight, from time to time there are some aborigines with hardwood bows and standard crossbows, probing around the giant pines to explore our side.These Hierro warriors don't know us, so they are wary of us, but they don't want to come near us.A dense sound of horses' hooves sounded, and a group of orc knights ran out from the depths of the forest, and Karantso rode at the front.As she walked through the forest, she would bow her head to avoid the branches, and she rode like a gust of wind on her horse.Karantso ran out of the depths of the forest with a team of orc knights to meet me, the orc warriors had improved a lot through this time of fighting, and they rode on horseback, becoming more and more like the knights in costume.The camp was set up on a swamp, all the tents were built on the roots of some huge old trees, and the living conditions were very simple, nearly half of the tents were soaked in muddy water, and the barbarian slaves were also covered with mud, but they didn't seem to care about the muddy environment, only the heavy crossbows hung from the trunks of the trees, and were wiped clean.This forest area is home to nearly 100 centuries-old tree spirits, so the indigenous people of Hierro strongly recommend this place as a campsite.I brought some new supplies to the Orc Warriors and the Barbarian Slave Warriors, and I opened a portal in Karantso's camp to allow the Barbarian Slaves to carry out the supplies prepared in the underground warehouse, including some replenishment weapons, arrows, corpse oil, first aid healing potions, hemostatic bandages, and marching rations."
How long are you going to stay here this time?"
Karantso leaned against the post at the door of the tent and asked me with his hands around his chest."
I'm leaving with you to pull out the spider camp on this side of the east!"
I sat on the roots of a tree outside the tent and said to Karantso as I watched the barbarian slaves carry boxes of supplies out of the tent.
