Ashmi likes to gaze at the stream in the forest, especially on rainy days, which gives him an inexplicable sense of security.

From raindrops to rivers, this is a life of water, and in the endless river of years, sentient beings just live a life similar to raindrops.

Dynamic streams and still forests resonate here, and Ashmi seems to hear time telling, telling a story called Creation Eternity.

"My lord, what kind of ingenuity do you have to create such a spectacular environment in nature?"

Every time he feels the magic of nature, he can't help but sigh, and at the same time, he will strengthen his beliefs.

Just as he enjoyed the serenity, a discordant voice broke it all.

"Woo, I don't want to stay here, I want to go home."

Ashmi had a headache when he heard the sound, and he didn't have to look at it to know that the crying sound was the same student he picked up yesterday, that no one wanted.

Yesterday this kid cried all night, and did not fall asleep until dawn, and now he has just woken up, and he has begun to cry again.

To be honest, he already regretted changing students a little, but it was useless to regret it.

Thinking of this, Ashmi glanced back at the other party.

"Since you don't want to stay here, tell me where your home is?"

When the boy heard this, he was stunned as soon as he cried, and the next moment he cried even louder.

"I don't know where my home is, what should I do."

Ashmi was a newcomer, and he knew that his mind was blank, and he didn't know where he was coming from.

The same encounter made him a little soft-hearted, he sighed, and couldn't help but enlighten in a loud voice:

"It doesn't matter if you can't remember, now the forest is your home, I am your teacher, and you can also see me as your relative.

From today your name is Bennu and I will train you to be a druid, and that's what you need to do next. ”

It turns out that the child, although ignorant, is not stupid.

After recognizing his current situation, Bennu acquiesced to everything Ashmi said.

He embraced a new name and a new environment, and at the same time, under the guidance of the teacher in front of him, he began his penance to become a druid.

It is not easy to survive in the forest, although the Golden Clan is immune to mycotoxins, but in this world dominated by plants, there are many things that they cannot eat.

Knowing what you can eat and what you can't eat is the key to survival.

However, for the druids, this is only the foundation of the basics.

Because druids don't just want to survive, they need to walk among beasts, dragonborns, and poachers to eradicate all kinds of threats.

Therefore, force is something that the druids must master.

Although the druids have different mentors and different areas of expertise, they are in a forest where danger can be encountered at any time, and either one needs to be taken at a critical moment.

"Don't keep your eyes on my hands, see my gaze change, and keep an eye on my shoulders with your peripheral vision, only then you can keep up with my movements."

Ashmi is armed with a wooden stick and attacks the students while constantly instructing the other party.

Although Bennu had already done so, he was quickly defeated by his experienced teacher.

"Eh!"

He couldn't help but scream out with a stick on his arm, and tears couldn't help but roll in his eyes.

"It hurts, teacher, why do we do this kind of training, isn't it good to live happily every day."

Hearing this, Ashmi opened his mouth and replied:

"The reason why living beings are born into this world is because they all have their own missions.

Even if the fairy in the forest is the daughter of the creator, she can't avoid the mission, let alone ordinary people.

And our mission as druids is to protect nature from being destroyed.

You can't do this if you don't have the strength, and it's hard to even survive. ”

Speaking of this, Ashmi looked at Bennu in front of him, and a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

"The Druid's Way is an asceticism, and if you can't stand it at this level, then you ......"

Ashmi wasn't alarmist, the path to druids was difficult, only half of his children were able to embark on the path of druids, and the remaining half could not adapt to the harsh practice, and all of them died in the forest without exception.

The main reason why Ashmi chose to teach Bennu was that he had doubts about the effectiveness of the spiritual test.

Just like what he said to his teacher Menghu before, when he was mentally tested, he was not indifferent because he was strong, he was simply frightened.

He didn't think that the mental test, which was dominated by intimidation, could determine whether a child had the qualifications to become a druid.

It was precisely because of his disbelief and the compassion in his heart that he did not hesitate to exchange students.

After all, if the druid hadn't chosen to accept Bennu, he would not have survived in the forest, and would have ended up with food for beasts and dragonborns.

However, Bennu's performance during this time made Ashmi a little shaken, and even he himself was not sure that the other party's mental performance could not be a druid.

"Let's stop here for the time being, I still have something to deal with, you can think about it yourself."

Ashmi said, sticking the stick in his hand to the ground, then turned and walked towards the Druid Ring.

…………

Bennu looked at the teacher's back and couldn't help but feel a little flustered.

The child's senses have always been sharp, and he can sense the subtle changes in Ashmi's expression.

"Isn't the teacher going to care about me, I'm just complaining a few words, and I haven't done anything bad."

Thinking of this, Bennu couldn't help but feel a little aggrieved, and he stood up and prepared to find some herbs to deal with the bruises on his hands.

However, at this moment, several figures appeared not far away.

"Isn't this the crybaby Bennu, why was it repaired by Ashmi again?"

Looking at the children of the same age in front of him, Bennu knew that they were all druid reservists like himself.

Although it has been a while since that mental test, he has been remembered by everyone for his crying fame, and there are always people who use this ugly nickname to ridicule him.

After a long time, Bennu was almost numb, he ignored the guys, and prepared to leave silently as usual.

However, a person on the other side directly blocked his way.

"Hmph, you want to slip away when you see me, aren't you going to say something to me?"

When Bennu heard this, he glanced at the roadblocker, he only felt that the other party was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember who the other party was at all.

"You are?"

Looking at Bennu's puzzled expression, the person opposite was immediately enraged.

I saw that he grabbed Bennu's clothes and said with a sneer:

"Hehe, you forgot about me so quickly.

It's clear that you've taken away what belongs to me, but you have forgotten about it! ”

Faced with this person's questioning, one of the few memories in Bennu's mind was awakened.

He remembered that the peer opposite him was the student that the teacher Ashmi had chosen, and the other party had been swapped out because of him.

"No wonder the other party is so angry, it turns out that it's because of this incident."

Thinking of this, Bennu hurriedly said apologetically:

"I'm sorry, but I didn't expect the teacher to agree to exchange students at the time."

Hearing this, the person on the other side had not yet responded, and the people around him expressed their dissatisfaction first.

"Is this kind of thing remedied with an apology, do you crybaby know who Ashmi is?

His teacher, Monhu, was a previous generation of oak sages and the leader of the entire Druidic sect.

And Ashmi, under the recommendation of Menghu, is already a well-established leader candidate, and becoming a student of Ashmi means that any fool understands it, and you can't make up for the losses you can't make. ”

Hearing this, the expression of the person concerned became even more ugly, and he looked at Bennu as if he had been robbed of his position as leader.

"That's right, let's settle the grievances between the two of us today."

With that, the man pushed Bennu away and pulled out the wooden weapon from his waist.

"Come, let me see what you've learned from the sages during your time.

Don't say I'm bullying you, we're one-on-one, and everyone else is a witness. ”

Bennu raised his hand when he heard this, and instinctively refused:

"Forget it, the injury on my hand is not healed, I don't want to ......"

However, before he could finish speaking, the other party had already rushed up.

"Didn't Ashmi teach you that as a druid, you can't run away from fighting, we are the arbiters of the forest and the wilderness, judging any living beings in between, as well as ourselves."

In the face of the opponent's stormy attack, Bennu could only parry.

But even so, he didn't last long.

I only heard a crisp click, and the branch in his hand was cut in two by the oak short sword in the opponent's hand.

Rao was quick to dodge, but the skin on his chest was still cut through by the short sword, and golden blood suddenly soaked out of the wound.

Bennu had heard the teacher mention that the oak tree was a sacred tree in the druid's mind, because it had been blessed by the fairy of the forest at the beginning of its birth and possessed all kinds of incredible powers.

Armor and shields made from its bark are sturdy, not only able to withstand elemental forces, but also to be able to take the dragon's breath head-on.

As for the oak weapons, they are even more sharpened like clay.

Obviously, it is such a weapon in the other party's hand.

"Bennu, have you only learned to dodge like a monkey for so long......?"

Provocations tend to make people lose their minds, and the same is true of Bennu who has been beaten passively.

Impulsively, he rushed straight forward, trying to snatch the most threatening oak short sword in the opponent's hand.

However, the other party is not a vegetarian either, so he deliberately sold a flaw, kicked him to the ground, and quickly rode on top of him.

"Bennu, what you took from me can only be repaid with your life!"

Bennu couldn't help but be shocked as he watched the other party holding a short sword and slashing at his head viciously.

He was now unarmed, unable to resist the sharp oak daggers.

In a panic, his hands subconsciously groped around, and accidentally touched a wooden stick.

At the critical moment, he didn't have time to care about whether the wooden stick could be stopped, so he directly raised his hand and forced it up.

When the oak short sword collided with the wooden stick, he subconsciously closed his eyes, and he was mentally prepared to be slashed by the other party when the wooden stick broke.

However, the worst did not happen, and the stick miraculously blocked the oak shortsword.

Looking at the unscathed stick, Bennu remembered that this was the one that the teacher had stuck in the ground when he left.

…………

For the students' discouragement, Ashmi was a little disappointed.

However, he did not choose to give up as Benu thought.

He has always adhered to the principle of good beginnings and good finishes, and as a teacher, he will do his duty.

As he said to Bennu, he did have something to do.

The title of Oak Sage, the supreme leader of the Druids, is not so easy to bear.

Not only does he need to synthesize information and arrange for the druids to deal with the various threats in the forest, but he also needs to use his abilities to help other druid companions in the fight against powerful enemies.

Not everyone can be an oak sage, in addition to being affirmed by the previous sage, there is also a hard condition, that is, to have elemental power.

In addition to being a druid, Ashmi is also an awakened dragonborn.

There are tens of thousands of dragonborns in the world, but the awakened ones are very rare, and there are even fewer humanoid individuals.

It's the identity of the Dragonborn Druid that qualifies him to be the next leader.

Without this precondition, it would not have been possible for him to be a student of Menghu.

The Oak Sage is not only a nice name, but also has the ability to bless oak weapons.

The oak tree has undergone a mutation due to Thaler's spiritual seed, which can store spiritual energy and elemental power for a long time.

However, the oak tree has multiplied from generation to generation, and the energy stored has long been diluted.

Naturally, she didn't have time to tinker with this, so she told her druids the details of the operation, so that they could master the oak armament against powerful enemies.

And these have been passed down from generation to generation as the inheritance of the oak sage.

As the next oak sage of the inner designation, Ashmi naturally inherited the secret from Menghu.

Heading back to the Druid's Ring, Ashmi arrives at the arsenal and begins to charge the oak weapons one by one.

Only oak weapons with energy possess the qualities of sturdiness and sharpness, which is where the druids have the strength to fight against elementals and dragonborns.

However, the energy stored inside the weapon also passes slowly, and needs to be replenished every month by him, the oak sage.

While doing this work, Ashmi was very focused, for fear of missing something.

He heard his teacher Menghu mention that when he was young, the other party had missed a weapon because of his carelessness, so that the oak weapon was scrapped, and a druid was indirectly killed.

Menghu blamed himself for this matter, and he has been haunted by it for so many years.

Since there are lessons from his predecessors, Ashmi naturally does not want to make the same mistakes.

Besides, there are not many oak weapons in the warehouse, so if you are serious, you will not miss it.

After all, the Druids' belief was to protect nature, and they couldn't cut down oak trees just because they needed weapons.

Most of the oak weapons stored here are made of natural and man-made disasters or naturally withered oak.

There aren't many of them, and if you count the ones lost in battle, the number of weapons is even less.

The good news is that the acorn seed is produced every year without destroying the oak tree, and this is the most important consumable weapon for the druids......
