1301. The Contract in the Dream Realm

During this time, the fighting became extremely hard and brutal, and many hoplites died on the battlefield at the mouth of the cave, and injuries were commonplace.

It's just that for some reason, the ghost pattern ant queen has been dormant in the Dark Worm Valley, and has never personally launched an attack on the lord army.

Surdak was also the first to hear that hundreds of thousands of indigenous people from the southern tribes were marching to the town of Dodan overnight, they are a group of devout people who believe in nature, they seek the truth of plants and trees from nature, and they are good at using herbs.

The dozen or so girls who followed Nika had a deep dabble in common herbs, and they could find some plant rhizomes from the grass to treat the wounded warriors.

Now, Surdak can only wait and see.

Coming from the merchants of Dodan Town, it is said that this group of natives of the southern tribe only want to pass through Dodan Town, and Surdak can guess that they are summoned by the Children of Nature, and their destination is naturally the Dark Worm Valley.

This group of tribal natives must have come for the towering pod that grew in the center of the Dark Worm Valley.

In any case, this was by no means good news for the lord army of Surdak......

The noble lords of Wilkes City chose to sit on the sidelines at this time, and of course they would not help Surdak to stop these tribesmen.

If they could, they wished that Surdak's lordship army would suffer some losses on the battlefield.

At this time, the noble lords of Wilkes City would never send troops to help.

The Chester Archswordsman of Wilkes City sent a cronie to the battlefield of the Dark Worm Valley overnight, he wanted to hear Surdak's opinion, and if necessary, the Luther Legion would mobilize all the garrisons to stop the tribe natives on the prairie.

At present, the combined army of the Luthor Legion and the lord army of Surdak does not exceed 150,000, and if Surdak wants to stop the hundreds of thousands of tribal natives from moving north, he must completely abandon the battlefield in this area of the Dark Worm Valley.

And the southern tribal natives showed no signs of hostility.

They're just moving toward faith......

So Surdak hesitated and did not make up his mind to stop them.

With the revival of everything in the Dark Worm Valley, the Ghost Pattern Soldier Ant has been fighting the lord army at the mouth of the cave this month.

The Surdak lord's army has been locked in a bitter battle for the past month, and the number of casualties has been rising, and various voices have appeared inside.

Some lord army commanders hoped that Surdak could evacuate the Dark Worm Valley as soon as possible, so as to ensure that the benefits were maximized. Some lords wanted to move to the Three Rivers Plain, and in winter, the lake froze and the red-ridged giant tortoises fell into a deep sleep and took out their nests in one fell swoop. Some lords are worried about whether the battle situation here will deteriorate further once the ghost pattern ant queen appears.

The lords' fears were valid, but these proposals were not what Surdak wanted.

He hadn't thought about letting out the Dark Worm Valley at this time.

Surdak sat in the tent, took the towel handed by Selena, wiped his somewhat greasy face, and rubbed his forehead with some headaches.

Selena stood behind him with her hands on his shoulders and made him lean back with the back of her head resting on her plump breasts. Putting his thumb and forefinger on his forehead, he relaxed, as Surdak had been under tremendous pressure lately.

More than once he thought about leading the lord's army out of here......

The battle in the Dark Worm Valley has only been stalemate for a month, and there are so many voices in the Alliance Lords' army, and Surdak now has a deep understanding of how difficult it will be for Grand Duke Newman to be in Warsaw at present, and he doesn't know how much pressure he needs to withstand to maintain the current situation.

Today, the situation of Surdak's lord army is not very rosy.

Once this group of natives of the southern tribes entered the Dark Worm Valley and formed a front and back attack with the ghost-patterned red ants, his lord army would have no way out.

But even so, he was confident that he would leave here with the lord's army, so Surdak could continue to wait patiently here.

……

A familiar voice called in my ears......

'Dark, Dark! ’

Surdak opened his eyes suddenly, and saw that the dark sky was chaotic, and he was lying barefoot on the grass, he supported his body with his hands, sat up from the soft grass blanket, and looked around blankly, this was a platform that was not too big, and the ground was covered with grass, which looked like some half-plane.

Surdak only blinked his eyes when he saw Selena, dressed in a priest's robe, leisurely appearing across from him.

She's like the owner of this place, and she can control everything here......

As soon as he stretched out his hand, a tray full of wine and fruit appeared in his palm.

But just as she turned to look at Surdak, that face changed to another beautiful face.

It was that face that seemed to radiate a thousand rays of light, forcing him to not dare to look at it at all.

He didn't even have to think about it in his heart, and a thought naturally came to him, that face belonged to the goddess of the night......

God cannot be looked at, not even in Selena's dreams.

Surdak hurriedly lowered his head, not looking directly at the woman, blinking his sour eyes vigorously, and the tears rushing out of his eyes wet his sockets, and his vision was blurred.

Then, the glare slowly faded and Selena reappeared beside Surdak with a graceful smile on her face......

Holding a clay pot, she walked up to Surdak and let Surdak lie down on her large . On his legs, he continued to pour out the water from the jug to wash Surdak's eyes

The water was very cool, and it seemed to contain some kind of magical power.

"This is my dream, and I pulled you into my dream." Selena lowered her head and whispered in Surdak's ear.

Surdak looked at her face and reached out to touch it, it was soft and smooth, and it didn't feel like she was in a dream.

…… Maybe it's a real dream.

Selena didn't explain much, she stretched out her hand and pointed to Surdak's side and said, "Look over there......"

Surdak turned his head, and he saw a pod rising from the sky in the infinite distance across the meadow, exactly what it looked like in the Dark Worm Valley.

That's why he subconsciously broke out: "The pod in the center of the Dark Worm Valley? ”

Selena wiped the water from his face, pulled him to sit up, and explained to him: "Hehe, it's not a pod, it's a World Tree seedling, if it grows into a World Tree in the future, it will be the same existence as the goddess." ”

Surdak had also thought that the pod in the Dark Worm Valley had an extraordinary origin, but he never thought that it would be a World Tree seedling......

"Why did you call me into your dreams?" Surdak asked Selena strangely, the two of them have been together almost every day these days, and even if they have something to say, they can talk when they are awake.

Selena pointed to the pea-pod-like World Tree and said:

"It's this World Tree that wants to communicate with you, my dream can't accommodate it, and the goddess has helped a little...... Then she also seems to want to talk to you, and I guess she has something to tell you that she doesn't want me to relay, but you can't look at her right now, so she left. ”

'A World Tree seedling wants to communicate with me?' ’

Surdak's eyes widened, and his heart was extremely messy......

'The World Sapling revived everything in the valley, obviously an accomplice of those ghost-patterned red ants, and at this time contacted himself through the dream of the goddess of the night, did he hope that he could surrender and withdraw from this valley? ’

Surdak thought to himself for a moment, and then he looked up to see the cupola pod in the distance, but the pod in front of him suddenly turned into a tree.

The tree was at the top of the meadow, and it looked like a golden tree dozens of meters high.

The huge canopy of the tree is covered with gold leaves, and it rustles in the breeze.

The World Tree seedlings did not conjure up human faces, and a gentle force of nature came into Surdak's heart, and Surdak obviously felt that it was greeting, this kind of spiritual communication, in fact, could best express his truest thoughts, if it weren't for Selena's dream, Surdak wouldn't have lasted long.

"Hello, Human Lord, I am Wodward, a child of nature. Lynch ...... "The gentle voice of the World Tree came.

"Hello, great son of nature, Waldward. Lynch, I'm Surdak. Surdak said hurriedly.

The gentle voice continued:

"You are very good at talking, first of all, I want to thank you, it is your attack on the ghost-patterned red ants, and the danger of exterminating them, that can make me see the light of day from the stomach pouch of the ghost-patterned ant queen, where not only is everything extinct, but it will also absorb the source life in me every moment."

"Now that I've been able to sprout and grow in the Valley of the Dark Worms, I'm still weak, but at least I'm in a much better position than in its stomach."

Surdak didn't know how to continue talking, but fortunately, his gentle voice didn't stop, but continued:

"The reason why it released me was probably because it thought that I was just a seed that had entered an indefinite slumber, with no memory of anything in the outside world."

"But it doesn't know about the inheritance of the World Tree, everything it did to my mother and me, every detail is engraved on me."

Surdak then took the opportunity to ask:

"With all due respect, why would it let you out under such circumstances?"

The World Tree continued in a gentle voice: "Probably to use my strength to revive the plants and trees in this valley and grow all things, only in such an environment can the Ghost Pattern Soldier Ant exert its strongest combat power. ”

"And although it didn't guess that I had all the memories, it still had some suspicions about me, it hadn't appeared on the battlefield for so many days, it just laid some restrictions on my body, I found you through the goddess of the night this time, and I also hope that we can join forces to deal with the ghost pattern ant queen together, I need to use some of your strength."

Surdak's eyes lit up, and he was about to say, 'Yes, yes!' Feel free to ask for anything! ’

The World Sapling has passed its request: "Please listen to my conditions, if we once form an alliance...... I need you to help me do three things! ”

The World Sapling proposes three things: "First, we must join forces to deal with the Red Ant Clan, the enemy who is currently the greatest threat to me. As the guardians of the World Tree, they have completely broken their promises, and they even want to absorb my mother's power and eventually become demigods of this world, so I want them to be punished. ”

"It's easy, and that's what I'm doing right now!" Surdak nodded in agreement.

The World Sapling said again, "The second thing, when things here settle down, you have to help me clean up all the giant mushrooms here." ”

"Dig them all out of the Dark Worm Valley and take them away? That's fine, I've heard that this giant mushroom has great medicinal properties......" Surdak happily agreed.

The World Sapling then made one last request: "The third thing is that I will punish those birds. ”

Before Surdak could answer, the message of the World Sapling was then transmitted: "And some of the benefits I can give you are that everything in this valley belongs to you except for the living space I need, and this valley will be protected by me, and my followers in the White Forest Plane will work for you." ”

Hearing the World Sapling say this, Surdak suddenly thought of the aborigines of the southern tribe who were heading towards the Dark Worm Valley, and those aborigines seemed to be its followers, so wouldn't there be hundreds of thousands more people at once......

"Do you have a way to deal with that ghost-striped queen?" Surdak asked, taking the opportunity.

"As long as it can help me get out of trouble, I have a way!" The voice of the World Sapling echoed in the sea of Surdak's spiritual consciousness: "The queen ant has set some restrictions on me, all my rhizomes are entrenched in ghost-patterned worker ants at the end, and at present, as long as I move a little, these worker ants will immediately devour my rhizomes. I need your help to solve this puzzle. ”

"And I have the power of the essence of life, I think I should be able to overcome it......"

The world sapling said that it was naturally the queen ant of the ant clan!

Since someone took the initiative to stand up and wanted to help him deal with the queen ant, Surdak certainly had no reason to refuse.

And this matter is also connected by the Dark Goddess, Surdak said:

"In that case, then we can draw up an alliance contract, to be honest, I never thought that I would have the opportunity to form an alliance with a big tree in this life, and it is also a world tree......"

In this dream, Selena is the leader here, and when she waved her hand, a high-level contract scroll appeared in the palm of her hand.

Surdak unfolded the contract scroll and carefully wrote down the words he had spoken to the World Tree seedlings before signing his name.

And the World Tree seedling simply dropped a soul mark, and a pale blue leaf pattern appeared on the scroll, and then a gentle voice followed: "I didn't expect that with the help of a human lord, I would be able to get out of the hands of the ant clan." ”
