Chapter 3: The World Tree
And when Feng Jie and the others left this world, Feng Jie suddenly turned his head to look at a place, and for some reason, he suddenly felt that there was an aura that made him feel familiar in that place.
It's just that the next moment, he has been teleported out of this world by the main god, and there is no way to continue to investigate.
“…… Did my brother find out about us? ”
Behind a huge rock about a kilometer or so from the battlefield, Shanshan poked her retracted head out again......
Shadow shook her head and said, "You shouldn't have found it, right?" Otherwise, my brother would have already said this, and we wouldn't have known about it. ”
Shanshan sighed and said, "When I used to play Legend of Sword and Fairy, I saw Li Xiaoyao go back to the past through the Soul Returning Immortal Dream, and I also complained about why Zhao Ling'er didn't recognize Li Xiaoyao. Now it's our turn, and although the process and reasons are different, the result is still about the same......"
Shadow was silent, and after a moment of silence, Shadow said, "Okay, I've seen my brother and them, and then, we should also go to the apple tree." ”
"Hmm." Shanshan nodded, and didn't say anything more.
After Shanshan and Ying'er learned the truth about the legendary world of Narnia from Fu Zhanpeng, they finally had a chance to resurrect Feng Jie.
After being told in detail by Fu Zhanpeng about the World Tree, Shanshan and Shadow did not immediately set off for the World Tree.
Instead, they came to the Houtu Reincarnation Platform, hoping to see Feng Jie and them again......
Although the timeline in the world of Sword and Fairy seems to have only passed for a few days, in fact, the timeline of the world of Sword and Fairy has been disrupted and restarted tens of thousands of times. And when Shanshan and Ying'er retrieved the memories of the N Zhoumu who were tortured and killed again and again, they could be said that in fact, they had spent quite a long time in the world of fairy swords. It's just that in these years, all of them are desperately trying to escape this terrible endless reincarnation, in order to end the memory of being tortured and killed again and again by the entropy demon.
Under the impact of these memories, they even felt that the faces of their partners in the Middle-earth team had become a little unfamiliar, and it was precisely because of this that they wanted to take a look again...... The Legendary World of Narnia can be said to be a horror movie where all the members of the Middle-Continent team gather, and the scene of the reunion of all the members of the Middle-Continent team, but even the real world can no longer be seen......
Closing his eyes and imprinting all the appearances of everyone in his heart, Shanshan and Shadow all nodded heavily, they didn't say anything, but they all made up their minds in their hearts...... No matter what, even if you want to take their lives, you must let everyone of the Central Continent team gather again and turn back into the former Central Continent team!
And now...... Their first goal is to go to the Apple Tree, where they can only change the timeline of the world of Narnia and put the Angel Legion back into standby, so that they can have a chance to resurrect Feng Jie using the Reincarnation Table.
"It's time for us to go...... This is not our battlefield, at least not yet. ”
"That's right, the battlefield we're going to face next may not be easier than the one here, but we don't have a choice."
Shanshan and Shadow quietly retreated, and they left the Houtu Reincarnation Platform and headed to the place where the World Tree was.
In the world of Narnia legends, is there such a thing as a world tree?
In fact, if you look at it according to the original book, there is absolutely no such thing as a world tree, whether it is the plot description in the original book, or the religious metaphor in the original book, there is no setting for the world tree. After all, The Chronicles of Narnia borrows a lot of religious metaphors from Christian culture, and many of the plots in it are very similar to those in the Bible.
The World Tree is derived from Norse mythology and legends, and can be regarded as one of the creation myths of Norse, that is, it has nothing to do with the world of Narnia legends. On the contrary, it is the appearance of an army of angels in this world, which seems to be able to be justified.
However, since Fu Zhanpeng swore that the apple tree that made the magic wardrobe and the apple tree seeds that were traded from the lion king Aslan, that apple tree was a world tree. Not only that, but it was also manipulated by the white-skinned saints and became a remote control to lock the timeline of the Chronicles of Narnia.
Fu Zhanpeng dared to say this, Shanshan and Ying'er definitely didn't have any doubts, and from the perspective of time, Fu Zhanpeng could do it...... After the Middle-earth team and the Celestial team entered the legendary world of Narnia, they first teamed up to kill the White Witch, and then controlled the passage and key of the white-skinned saint ruins respectively, almost tacitly, choosing to enter the ruins on the last day of the mission.
And the period before entering the ruins, it was basically the time for two teams to manipulate the army of the White Witch side behind their backs and the army of the Lion King Aslan's side to play strategic games.
During this time, if you want to say that Fu Zhanpeng didn't do anything secretly behind his back, I'm afraid even Akuya won't believe it...... Not to mention anything else, just the transformation of the demon army of the original Aslan army that appeared on the battlefield at the end was obviously the result of Fu Zhanpeng's secret attack during that time.
After all, when Fu Zhanpeng was in the reincarnation world, there was still a black cat as his doppelganger to move freely.
Just judging by the information he revealed to Shanshan and Ying'er...... During that time, he must have done more than just Aulis, the centaur leader. Even the hidden plot of this world, the apple tree, was found by him.
Well...... If Feng Jie knew, I was afraid that he couldn't help but scold Fu Zhanpeng: "Old coward, how many things do you still hide from me?" ”
Then Fu Zhanpeng will say: "What is the use of mortal wisdom when I talk to you?" It's just a waste of my tongue. ”
Then there's the farce that often happens in the Middle-earth team...... Feng Jie beat Fu Zhanpeng.
Ahem, it's a bit of a stretch.
When the time changed from night to day, Shanshan and Shadow felt a great sense of oppression coming from the direction of the Houtu Reincarnation Stage, and then disappeared again. This let them know that fortunately they met Fu Zhanpeng, otherwise they would definitely not have even half a hope of resurrecting Feng Jie.
Even if they weren't wise men and didn't see anything with their own eyes, they could guess it...... It must be an angel legion that has the last laugh, after all, it is a combat weapon made by a saint, even if Fu Zhanpeng transforms Aslan's army, it is absolutely impossible to defeat the army made by a saint.
Then, Shanshan and Ying'er didn't stop for anything, but continued to follow the direction Fu Zhanpeng told them. Fortunately, Fu Zhanpeng gave them a detailed coordinate map, and it was an electronic map made of alchemy, although there was no GPS positioning, but it could also show where they went.
With Shanshan and Shadow's strength, as long as they strictly follow the route on the electronic map, it will only take about forty-eight hours to reach the location of the World Tree.
It's just that what they don't notice is ...... Just after they had walked all night, a huge figure dripping with blood flew away from the direction of the Houtu Reincarnation Platform, and the direction in which it flew away was also the direction in which Shanshan and Shadow were going!
………………
…………
……
"It's here...... This is where the World Tree is located, right? ”
Shanshan and Ying'er hurried with light effort, and finally arrived at the location marked on the electronic map - a huge forest after more than 40 hours.
The forest is huge, although the world of Narnia, like many fantasy worlds, is a very well-greened world, with a lot of vegetation. For example, this is the case of the grove where Shanshan and Shadow came into this world.
However, this forest was seen from Shanshan and Shadow from a great distance, and they couldn't see the edge at all, and they didn't know where the forest extended.
The main tree of this forest is a giant sequoia...... This tree also exists on the earth in the real world, and is the tallest tree in the world, with an average height of 60 to 70 meters, and a few can exceed 100 meters.
And Shanshan and the giant sequoia forest in front of her are incredible, and its area is far larger than the American giant sequoia national park on the earth.
However, according to Fu Zhanpeng's words and the display on the electronic map, in the very center of this giant sequoia forest is the location of the World Tree.
Well...... Even if you want to find an apple tree in a grove of giant sequoias, it sounds weird.
After walking into this giant sequoia forest, Shanshan and Shadow really felt as if they had entered a giant realm, as if they had been shrunk several times and turned into a dwarf. The shade of these giant sequoia trees is not dense enough to completely block out the sunlight in the sky, but for the size of the giant sequoia trees, it is enough to block out most of the light.
Because of this, it seems that the giant sequoia forest is quite dark.
"That's amazing...... I didn't think there would be such a big tree. ”
Although Shanshan and Ying'er are definitely super daughters in some respects, they have never visited the world-famous giant sequoia National Park in the United States, and it is the first time they have seen such a super giant tree with an average height of more than 60 meters.
"It feels like you've stepped into the Lord of the Rings world." Shadow said with some emotion, she still clearly remembers, after the Middle-earth team left the world of Narnia legends, she was immediately issued a punishment mission by the main god and was forced to enter the world of the Lord of the Rings, and therefore, Shadow also stayed in the world of the Lord of the Rings for a period of time and experienced the customs of Middle-earth.
"Uh-huh...... This kind of forest really feels like a fantasy world. "Although Shanshan did not enter the world of the Lord of the Rings in person like Shadow, because of the enhanced attributes of the heterogeneity, she also shared all her memories with Shadow, which is equivalent to her own entry into the world of the Lord of the Rings.
"Be careful of the shepherds, though." Shadow reminded.
In Fu Zhanpeng's explanation, this giant sequoia forest is not a scenic tourist resort, and it is impossible for the white-skinned saint not to leave some "insurance measures" here.
In this giant sequoia forest, there is a race called "tree herders", which is, to put it bluntly, similar to the group of tree people in the Lord of the Rings world. When Shanshan and Shadow watched the Lord of the Rings trilogy movie, they also felt very shocked, worthy of being a world-renowned magic blockbuster, and the tree man who appeared to attack Issinger in the second part of The Lord of the Rings is also impressive.
And the shepherd in the legendary world of Narnia, to be more precise, the shepherd in this giant sequoia forest, is a similar race to the world of the Lord of the Rings, but more powerful.
These shepherds can wake up their kindred by blowing the horn flute...... This clan is very interesting, in the concept of tree herders, all trees are their kindred, and awakening their kindred, in Fu Zhanpeng's view, is actually equivalent to them turning all ordinary trees into identical tree herdsmen like them.
In this way, it is not difficult to imagine what kind of terrible existence these shepherds will become in this giant sequoia forest...... I'm afraid that the entire giant sequoia forest will become a tree herder at that time, and how many giant sequoia trees are there in this giant sequoia forest?
Just thinking about it makes your scalp tingle...... What the army of the White Witch, the army of Aslan, is a compared to these shepherds, this is where the most powerful army in the world of Narnia is located!
This kind of terrible enemy, unless it is a super strong person of the level of Feng Jie, if you put them in the Lord of the Rings world, I am afraid that you can dominate the world of Middle-earth.
"According to what Fu Zhanpeng's brother said, these shepherds have never been attacked in the Chronicles of Narnia world, so they have never awakened, so as long as we are careful, they should not be attacked. Well...... At least not until we get to the World Tree. ”
Fu Zhanpeng naturally wouldn't give them an impossible task, although these shepherds were guards arranged by the white-skinned saints, if they didn't encounter an attack, they would basically not wake up, and they didn't look any different from ordinary giant sequoia trees.
Therefore, as long as Shanshan and Shadow are careful not to kill themselves and do anything like setting fire to the tree, they should be able to avoid alarming these tree herdsman guards and reach the World Tree safely, although it is unknown if it will trigger any defense mechanism at that time.
With a cautious thought, Shanshan and Shadow were like two elves, speeding through the woods, and the light skills they practiced played a great role at this moment, I am afraid that the jungle elves in the Lord of the Rings world may not be as agile as them.
After a few hours, they estimated that they were about to reach the location of the World Tree, and were wondering if they should stop and rest for a while.
But at this moment, a giant sequoia tree more than 100 meters high in front of them suddenly stood up from the ground!
