The trees on the outskirts of the Emia Forest are mostly low and thick, but a few miles further in the trees become extremely tall, and the thinnest trunks have to be hugged by three people.

Because the trees shade the sky, the plants on the ground do not get enough light, so most of the plants that grow are mosses and lichens, and occasionally there are small patches of grass. The ground is still mainly occupied by dirt and entrenched old tree roots, which is extremely inconvenient to walk.

"Alright, Wood," Hua Ye looked around as he stood on a large flat rock, "look at the map and where we've probably been." ”

"I, the direction we came from, have walked, walked five kilometers, and are currently in the north and north of the forest, in the middle and middle of the periphery."

The Emiya Forest is long and nearly 1,000 kilometers long, with widths ranging from 100 to 500 kilometers. The pointed ends point north and south, and the western center of the forest faces the city of Amya.

There are countless people who enter the forest every day to explore, experience, do tasks or simply enjoy the scenery and paint, no, Hua Ye quarreled with a group of people who had just passed by.

"I found this stone first!" Hua Ye pointed to the floor.

"Fart! Our team has already planted a battalion on this stone no less than three times! Look there's the black mark of our bonfire! "A wild woman with wheat-colored skin, wearing animal bones and tiger skins crushed Hua Ye with momentum.

Wood honestly hid from the sidelines and watched the two argue, while Xinqiu kept staring at the woman's well-defined and explosive muscles, expecting to fight her.

And this woman's team plus her four people seem to be following the route of the Fauvists, and the two men are also wearing bear skulls and carrying huge bone spear bone knives. The other woman was also wearing a wolf's head cloak, and the sheep's head staff in her hand was still glowing red. All of them are humanoid beasts.

"Sister Tiger! Don't be so crooked! Let's beat him up and we'll be done! The strong man with the bone spear on his back roared from behind.

"That's right, Sister Tiger! The three of them are all weak, what is there to argue, just give it a beating! Another bear-headed man had already begun to crack the joints of his fists.

The wolf-headed woman didn't speak, but the red light of the staff in her hand became more and more dazzling.

Xin Qiu looked at the three people behind him in a posture of wanting to get up, and also excitedly stood up, while Wood walked up silently at this time and whispered in Hua Ye's ear: "I, I can use magic to create a comfortable, comfortable grass." ”

Hua Ye kicked Wood away: "I don't, I'm going to grab this stone with this group of primitives today!" ”

"Who do you say is a primitive, skinny monkey!" The tiger-skinned girl was furious, showing a pair of tiger claw fist gloves, "If you have a fight, you will fight with the old lady!" ”

"Sister Tiger is so good!"

"Sister Tiger hammers that guy!"

"Sister Tiger... Hey? Earthquake? ”

The two groups of people suddenly fell silent, feeling the sudden shaking of the ground, and the birds in the forest scattered and fled.

"Wood, what did you do?" Hua Ye looked back at Wood who was still kicked to the ground in surprise, but his head shook like a rattle to deny Hua Ye's guess.

At this time, the Tigerskin Girl also turned back and asked the Wolf Head Girl suspiciously: "Wolf Witch, are you using the power of the beast soul?" ”

The wolf-headed woman quickly extinguished the red light on the staff and shook her head in unison with Wood's frequency.

"Sister Tiger, could it be a beast tide?" A strong bear-headed man asked, "Listen to the voice in the east." ”

The group immediately held their breath and pricked up their ears to listen.

Wood silently thrust his staff into the ground and chanted a probe spell.

"No, no, no, no!" Wood quickly drew his staff, "One, one, one, a big group—"

"Run! The beast tide is coming! The domineering posture of the Tiger-Skinned Girl disappeared without a trace, and she slipped away with the other three people.

"Damn! Worthy of a barbarian, he runs really fast! "Hua Ye is really unhappy, he just came to the forest and there were moths, "We're also—"

Before they could finish speaking, they had not taken a step when suddenly the towering trees around the three of them fell one after another, just surrounding them, and the center of the giant tree encircled happened to be the flat boulder.

"Wood?"

"No, no, no, no—"

"It must be the goddess of the forest who takes care of us!" Xinqiu's brain reacted quickly at this time, "Thank you, Goddess of the Forest!" Oh, and it could be a male god! Thank you, the gods and goddesses of the forest! ”

"Can this stop the beast tide?" Although it was true that Ju Ximu was taller than the two Hua Ye even if he fell, he still doubted it.

Then the beast tide came, and Hua Ye couldn't escape even if he wanted to, so the three of them listened to the roaring and roaring of all kinds of beasts outside the wooden circle, and the trampling of hooves and claws on the dirt and wood, Hua Ye swore that he had heard more beast species in just ten minutes than he had seen in his life.

"It seems to be over, Xinqiu, you jump up and take a look."

Xinqiu nimbly jumped to the highest place, looking at the wolf around him and some unnamed animal corpses, "The beast tide is over!" But it smells so bad! But thank you, forest goddess! With that, Xinqiu covered his nose and jumped down in disgust.

"Come on, encyclopedia, tell us about the beast tide." After a few people set up camp, Hua Ye asked Wood who seemed to know everything.

"I, I, our teacher didn't, didn't teach the beast tide." Wood replied embarrassedly.

…

Looking at the dancing flames in the campfire, several people chatted and learned more about Wood.

Born into an ordinary family, Wood stumbled upon a small grass that could grow at a visible rate when he was a child, and his family sent him to study magic at the Aemia Elemental Academy. Although Wood's talent element is a wood attribute, unlike other human wood elements, his magic orientation is "life", not "control" or "extinguish", but the academy mainly teaches "control" and "extinguish", because these two magic-oriented mages are the most popular, and at the same time, they bring the most direct increase in combat effectiveness.

The orientation of life is incompatible with the extinction, because the extinguishing of the wood attribute is often to extract the living wood and convert it into destructive energy or healing energy, and the first step in mobilizing the magic element is the stripping of life, while the life orientation is mainly to use the free magic elements in the earth to create life, and the entire system of magic invocation is very different.

Later, the deputy director of the Wood Spirit Department of the academy personally trained with Wood to explore the student-oriented practice method. This deputy minister is what he calls his teacher, a freak who has little magic skills but a living library. This also contributed to Wood's habit of running to the library to nibble on books when he had nothing else to do.

When Wood graduated, that is, three days before Hua Ye recruited him into the team, due to the lack of a system for student orientation in the assessment, he had to give Wood a minimum graduation standard, that is, a junior wood elementalist. Most people believe that Wood, who casts spells slowly and non-destructively, is suitable for architectural gardening, and some large families even invite him to become a magic gardener.

"But the teacher told me that if you want to break through yourself, you have to live, life and death, so that your potential will be tapped."

Xinqiu was already asleep, still touching her belly as if she was still eating in her dreams.

"Yo, you guys are quite laid-back in this circle!"

"You four are really haunted! Isn't it just a place for camping?! Hua Ye stared at the four people standing on it in annoyance, it was the wild beast squad in front of the beast tide.
