Chapter 9 Set a small goal

Nearly half a month has passed, and with the joint efforts of everyone, the tribe has regained its vitality.

As the captain, Maicha was the only one left in the end, and voluntarily quit the patrol.

The priests sent daily also stopped coming, and when Groot, who knew his situation, came, Macha recovered from his injuries within a few days.

On that day, Madza and Groot talked for a long time, and finally the two duel at midnight, and both were wounded, and the end ended in a draw.

Groot became famous because of the defeat of the enemy captain, and from time to time he received ambiguous anonymous letters and gifts, and he wanted to hide secretly but was discovered by Maggie.

The two had a big fight over this, but a few days later, Maggie offered to swim with him, and the two reconciled again.

However, those heroes who died in battle can never come back, and their families can only move forward with sorrow.

Groot tries to resurrect their bodies, but he finds himself helpless to find that his abilities are only useful for those whose limbs are intact and whose souls have just left their bodies.

He looked at the new trees planted in the cemetery and felt a little uncomfortable.

[I obviously have this power, but I still can't do anything]

[Child, never blame your past self, look forward]

Groot looked back and saw the village chief leading the crowd to stand behind him.

After deliberation, it was decided to re-hold the priesthood here.

The adjutant spoke to the crowd

[Groot is our hero, without him, we would only lose more soldiers]

[I just, did what I had to do]

[No, the difference between heroes and people is that they dare to face it, and you did it, kid]

[I'll leave this to you for safekeeping]

The patriarch took out the glimmering staff of life from his hand and handed it to Groot.

[The storm is only temporary, it is a sign that darkness is coming]

[Your new generation is our hope]

[Now, I appoint Groot McRoot as the leader of the team, and we will leave in three days]

Maggie looked at Groot's excited and surprised expression, a little overwhelmed, and turned away.

[I will definitely complete the task]

[However, you have to form your own squad]

[Yourself?]

[There is no limit to the number of team members, no gender limit, and the age is less than 16]

Groot felt a great responsibility, but it all came too quickly.

Later, the crowd surrounded Groot, asking him how he defeated the enemy captain and asking him to show him a few tricks.

[Gray, look at our daughter, do you like it?]

[Our weapons here, you use them for free, we don't charge you money]

[Groot, you're amazing]

The patriarch continued

[The man who beat you at that time, we have already found out his details]

[Thanks to the careful Fa Miaoer]

He looked at the man who was still smiling, and thanked himself

[Therefore, we are going to sacrifice you alone again, and set off for a trip to the sacrificial ground]

In the days that followed, he gathered several boys and girls like him, including Feng Xia, the daughter of the Captain of the War Bear, Millie, the daughter of the healing priest, and the female archer

Aisha and several other fighters.

He was exhausted from the tossing and turning for the past few days, and he returned home.

Maggie had her back to him and was packing her clothes.

[Maggie, where are you going]

【。。。 】

Maggie was silent

[What's wrong]

Groot walked over and smiled at his beloved, who was helping her sort out.

[This is, my clothes, what are you doing here]

[Aren't you in a hurry to leave]

Groot grabbed Maggie's hand, but saw Maggie's red and swollen eyes,

【I'm sorry】

He put his arms around Maggie and kissed her affectionately.

For a long time, Maggie was unwilling to let go of her hand and kept asking for it.

For the first time, Groot tastes the saltiness of his first love.

【Gray】

Maggie stripped off her shirt and was once again unreservedly displayed in front of Gray

[I want you to never forget this night]

In the pond behind the house, the summer night wind blows across the pond.

The two dragonflies rested on the leaves, and the male hugged the other tightly and pierced its body hard, for a long time, not wanting to separate.

Groot and Maggie gasped and sweated, caressing each other's bodies as if for the first time, careful and discreet.

Don't forget me, Groot.

When Maggie fell asleep, he put on his clothes, gently straightened the ends of her messy hair, and walked out the door.

(Midnight Altar)

【You're here】

The female lieutenant smiled at him and motioned for him to stand in the center of the circle.

The five priests were bowing their heads and reciting blessing incantations.

Groot stepped into the ring at the signal, and suddenly felt a force that tore at his soul.

[Uhhhh

Groot exudes a strong resistance all over his body, and this power does not seem to be his own.

【This is!】

The patriarch sensed a familiar spiritual power,

Why does he have the power of the Wolf King, I have been looking for so many years, and it turned out to be in him]

At this time, after suffering the pain of torn soul, Groot suddenly felt the peace he had before.

He snapped his eyes open.

A green glow filled Groot's surroundings, and in front of him were four stone sculptures three feet tall and a white one-eyed wolf of equal size.

[How--]

The Wolf King opened his eyes

[Here we go again]

【Where is this?】

[You are blind, boy, my summoning is what I gave you, this is our shelter]

Groot was a little confused, and looked at the white wolf, and then at the sculptures.

[Oh, we are the energy collection in your heart]

It continued

[As the patron saint of the orcs, we disperse and preserve the energy in your body, as long as the orcs do not die, we will not dissipate]

With that, he stood up, leaned over and grabbed Groot

[Don't be afraid, choose your second form]

He looked at the strange stone sculpture and stood up,

[I haven't mastered the power of the wolf spirit yet, so don't rush now]

The white wolf was stunned at first, then burst out laughing

[You kid, it's a little interesting]

Out of nowhere, he took out a wolf bone necklace and put it around his neck.

[Okay, touch it if you want to find me, I'll be here for you at any time]

When Groot opened his eyes again, he touched his necklace, which turned into a tattoo on his body, and his eyes also changed.

The left eye was scarred like a wolf king, and the two eyes became beast eyes, and the night became as clear as the day.

[Is this the power of blessing?]

He urged his thoughts, the tattoo emitted a white light, and a faint energy slowly flowed from the tattoo to the whole body.

The hands became wolf claws, and the body took on the shape of a wolf.

He let out a long howl at the moon

[Ahh----------h

Even Groot didn't know why, he would do it instinctively, and he was thrilled by the novelty.

[You have chosen the blessing of the wolf spirit]

The adjutant said to her

[It seems that you have mastered beasthood, and I will teach you other skills on the way]

Groot asked in a rough voice, a little confused

【Will you go with us】

[Of course, after all, I chose you by myself]

As he spoke, he winked at Groot.

[Okay, let's go back and rest]

And the chief of the patriarchs said unto the people,

【Departure tomorrow at noon】
