Chapter 550: Extracting the Tree of Life (10,000 Words Big Chapter Asking for Subscription)
Sharp Tooth Forest, a temperate primeval broad-leaved forest located southeast of Baldur's Gate and on the south bank of the Oisa River.
It is quite large, almost four times the size of the cloak forest closest to Baldur's Gate, and there are no complicated hills or alpine terrain around it, just oaks, beech, red pines, birches, etc., that grow on the great plains as far as the eye can see.
Together with the Viper Forest, the Riverbank Forest, and become the three major forests of the West Hartland region.
Aside from various monsters, dragons, beasts, bandits, and three Druid orders belonging to different factions, there is little trace of civilization, not even the barbarian tribes commonly found in the Northlands.
For a long time, neither the human lords living nearby, nor the woodcutters, hunters, and other professions dared to approach the Sharptooth Forest easily.
Because beasts, monsters, and dragons may not kill them, but the extreme environmentalist druids and rangers will definitely take out everyone who dares to destroy the so-called "nature".
Even civilians who dared to establish villages and clear farmland on the outskirts of the region were mercilessly slaughtered.
Over the course of a few hundred years, at least tens of thousands of ordinary people have died at the hands of the three Druid Orders, and countless villages, towns, and farms have been destroyed.
Over time, the people living in this land have come to a consensus that they should never go near the range of the Sharp Tooth Forest, otherwise the whole family will die without a place to bury.
Although Baldur's Gate and other powerful towns have organized armies to encircle and suppress these extreme Druids, they have all failed in the end.
With knowledge and control of the forest, the druids and their allies of dryads, beasts, and plants easily annihilated their enemies in the depths of the forest.
Realizing that fighting a group of druids in the forest was all about seeking death, the towns abandoned their plans and allowed them to control the forest and its surrounding lands, while acquiescing to the exercise of their power and rules in the area.
But now, with Zuosi's strong rise, all the forests, mountains, swamps, and wildernesses on the west coast of the entire Faren Continent from the south of the Meandering River have been forcibly taken under his control.
As for those forces that occupy mountains or forests as kings and form a de facto separation, they are basically either swallowed up and exterminated by the huge monster army controlled by the purgatory red dragon Vermes and the dragons under her command, or they take the initiative to bow their heads and accept the incorporation and transformation.
In particular, the Druid sect, which represents the forces of nature, has almost all welcomed the visit of Nimidonna, the god of nature.
Some of the druids, who were unwilling to heed the advice to convert and resisted, were mercilessly slaughtered;
Other groups of druids who were also reluctant to convert, but did not choose to rebel, were expelled from the Empire.
However, in addition to these two waves of people, there is another one who chooses to change his faith and become a believer in the goddess of poison and disease.
To be precise, it is another new aspect that Talona is building - the goddess of natural degradation and the cycle of all things.
Since obtaining the priesthood of spores, she has acquired the priesthood of fungi through continuous evolution and understanding, and has also acquired the priesthood of microorganisms by merging fungi, bacteria, and viruses, from which she has evolved the birth and death of life, as well as the concept of degradation and recycling of all things.
This concept directly breaks the so-called one-system balance interpretation of "nature" by Sivanus, the father of the oak tree, and opens up a new understanding of nature.
In her theory, the forests, mountains, wilderness, and swamps that Sivanus admired were only the most insignificant parts of the great nature, and there was no need to waste time and energy to protect them.
Instead, it is the intelligent creatures themselves that create civilization that should be protected to protect these natural resources.
Because if they wantonly carry out large-scale destruction of the surrounding natural environment, it will inevitably lead to a series of catastrophic consequences such as extreme climate change and soil erosion.
At that time, the entire civilization will decline or even perish because of this.
When civilization perished, there was no more man-made continuous destruction of that land, and it would slowly recover after thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of years.
From the perspective of the long evolution of nature and life, this is just a blink of an eye.
After all, all of this takes place in the interior of the planet Torrell, and the matter and energy are just being degraded and recycled in the interior of the planet.
There is no doubt that Talona's new teachings have succeeded in freeing herself from the evil image of the past and becoming a neutral deity once and for all.
Not only that, but she is gradually moving away from her dependence on mortal beliefs and towards a grander nature deity.
If successful, it will be integrated and become part of the birth, death, degradation and cycle of life on the planet Torrell.
Even without mortal followers, as long as the cycle continues, Talona can still maintain her divine power, just like Talos, the god of storms.
But now, she is still missing the last piece of the puzzle in this grand blueprint, which is the death priesthood of the late murder god Barr.
At this moment, the avatar of the goddess was looking condescendingly at the rituals of the druids in the Sharptooth Forest below.
A man who looked to be about forty years old was seen holding up a dead and decomposing animal carcass and muttering words in his mouth, and then placing it on the altar.
Soon, under the influence of divine magic, a large number of microorganisms in its body quickly decomposed, and the corpse completely disappeared and merged into the deep pit below the altar in less than a minute.
The weeds, leaves, straw, wheat husks, rotting wood, and animal and human feces that accumulate in the pits are all completely fermented in the process, turning them into perfect nutrients that can greatly increase the fertility of the land.
Seeing this, the rest of the druids, rangers, and peasants from nearby villages immediately knelt on the ground and chanted loudly eulogies in praise of the greatness of the goddess of natural degradation and the cycle of all things.
Because these fertilizers produced through a unique magic not only prove the theory of natural degradation and recycling, but also allow the crops in the field to achieve an unprecedented harvest in the autumn.
People will always be extra sensitive to things that are closely related to their own vital interests.
For a group of farmers who depend on farming for their livelihood, there is nothing more important than increasing the output of the land.
So when Talona can bestow the priests and druids who believe in her own magic of "degrading" and "making fertilizer", she will naturally be able to win the worship of millions of peasant families in areas where the presence of the Mother Earth Goddess Church is weak or non-existent.
After all, the effects of those fermented fertilizers are something that everyone can feel.
What's more, the West Coast Empire is frantically building water conservancy irrigation projects and farms in the West Hartland region, and wants to completely build the Great Plains in the green wilderness area into a huge granary.
Feeling the divine power that more and more mortal believers brought to him, the goddess who came in the form of a black bird turned her head and asked the natural god serving standing beside her, "What do you think mortals' belief in gods comes from?"
Is it the kind of exchange of interest that Soth thinks?
Or is it based on their narrow perception of the world and the universe?
Or the awe, fear, and adoration of a powerful being that you can't understand? ”
Nimidonna lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then quickly shook her head and replied, "Sorry, noble goddess, I don't know.
Because from my observations in recent times, I have found that the reasons for mortals to have faith are often very complex.
The proportion of interests at work tends to be higher.
If joining a church and believing in a god would bring immediate benefits, then the vast majority of less determined mortals will immediately change their faith.
For example, many of the peasants you see today used to worship Loshanda, the lord of the dawn, and Heim, the god of guards.
Because the churches of these two gods once dominated the order of the region, protecting the village from evil forces and wild beasts for free.
But now, with the establishment of a new order in the place of the former by the father's empire, people no longer need the protection of the power of the church, and have begun to pursue a life of affluence, more material and spiritual enjoyment, and naturally begin to believe in you who can produce fertilizer that increases the yield of the land.
It is only when the output of the land increases that the peasants will earn more income and earn money to buy a wide variety of goods and services.
This change in attitude was so rapid that neither the Lord of the Dawn nor the Church of the Guardian God had time to react before they lost a large number of believers.
Perhaps my father saw this through and developed a series of plans to help you expand your influence and reshape your new doctrine.
After all, mortal belief is, to put it bluntly, a belief based on subjective consciousness.
And if they can benefit from their faith, they will naturally be able to strengthen this trust, and eventually become more and more religious. ”
"You're right.
Dear Soth showed me how fragile and fickle mortal faith can be.
It also took a lot of effort to pave the way for me to maintain my powerful divine power without relying on mortal beliefs.
In this world, if you don't want to decline and die like the ancient sun god Amanata because he was suddenly abandoned by mortal believers, the best way is to be part of the rules.
For example, the goddess of magic, who is the embodiment of the magic web, the god of death, who symbolizes the end of life, the goddess of the night, who represents the night, darkness, and secrets, and the will formed by the planet beneath your feet, the mother earth goddess, and so on.
The common denominator of these gods is that their priesthood itself is part of the objective laws of the world.
Therefore, whether mortals believe in it or not, they will always be part of the powerful divine power. ”
As she said this, there was a hint of emotion in Talona's tone, which maintained her black bird form.
Once upon a time, like the other gods, she believed that in order to become strong, she had to constantly expand her faith, so that those mortals feared, feared, and feared herself, and then obediently gave everything.
But now, with the improvement of her horizons and a deep understanding of various philosophical ideas, she finally understands what a huge mistake she has made before.
In other words, his spirit is constantly influenced by those believers who are full of malice and greed in their hearts, and completely turns into a mad god who is manic, irritable, and cautious.
However, with the arrival of Zuosi and the formation of a new sect, a large number of believers who tend to be neutral and kind have pulled the goddess back from the evil camp.
So Talona is very glad that when Zuosi first came to this world, she was attracted to decisively lower her incarnation and forcibly turned it into her own vote.
Thinking of this, she raised her head again and stared at the Divine Servant of Nature and asked, "What are you here for this time?" Check out the state of the Druids in the region? ”
Nimidonna shook her head slightly: "No, of course not.
I have either expelled or destroyed all the Druids who insist on believing in the gods of nature.
There's nothing left to watch in the entire Sharptooth Forest.
This time I came here mainly because my father ordered me to find the whereabouts of an artifact, the Ring of Misrien.
The Elven Kingdom of the Wildas Forest believes that this is the last place where the Elven Mystery God Misryan Celett last appeared, and that the ring must be hidden somewhere deep in the forest.
As a blazing god who wields the power of nature, my perception in the forest is far higher than that of other creatures, even most gods.
So if the artifact is actually in the forest, I'm sure I'll be able to find it. ”
"Need my help?"
Talona asked with interest.
"Thank you for your kindness, but I don't think it's necessary.
After all, it had been a long time since Misryan Celet had performed miracles, and there were not many followers left even among the elves.
His father thought he was most likely too weak to incarnate in Torrell.
So it's not theoretically a very dangerous job. ”
With that, Nimidonna flapped her wings and rose into the air and disappeared into the night.
Watching her fade away, Talona whispered in a voice that only she could hear, "The Ring of Misrion?
Soth really likes to collect these artifacts and all sorts of magical knowledge.
Since he likes it so much, I'll build an artifact for him the next time we meet.
But what is the best way to present this artifact?
A weapon?
A book?
Or ordinary equipment like amulets, boots, belts, etc.?
It's best to wait until you get the Death Priesthood to be promoted to a powerful divine power before you start preparing.
This will make the artifact even more powerful. ”
With muttering to herself, Talona's blackbird avatar quickly spread its wings and flew away, intending to travel to the Riverbank Forest and the Dragon Forest to check out the Druid sect that believed in itself.
She was obviously not worried at all about the son of Baal, who was making more and more fun in the southern region, and she didn't think that the dead murder god Baal could make any trouble.
Compared to these, the goddess actually looked forward to Zuo Si appearing in front of her with the priesthood of death, and what might happen later.
……
At the same time, it was located deep in the forest of Verdas in the south, outside the temple that originally belonged to the surface elves.
Aberdale and his party had already arrived at their camp under the leadership of the Forest Elf warriors, and were negotiating with General Sopharidas who was leading the army.
The reason is simple.
The elven commander needs to figure out what the intentions of these mixed humans, half-elves, and drows are in front of him, and why they are suddenly appearing on the battlefield.
After all, he was exhausted by the deteriorating situation, and was eager to return to Sodenisra immediately to save his homeland, which was on the verge of total fall.
The constant anxiety, nervousness, worry, and fear made the commander, who had the rank of LV16 Total Warrior, seem a little rough and suspicious.
Without even asking for Sancho and the others' permission, he directly called Elhan, who was the best at interrogation under his command, as well as several priests who were responsible for casting the two-ring magic [Honest Domain].
Obviously, the forest elves wanted to use this simple and crude way to determine whether the adventurous party in front of them was an enemy or a friend.
"Damn! What do you mean by that? ”
Aberdell, who was also not very good-tempered, immediately exuded a suffocating murderous aura all over his body when he sensed what the other party wanted to do.
"Calm down, human. We don't want to be in trouble, we just want to find out if you're the enemy. Don't forget, there's a drow in your ranks. ”
As he said this, Elhan stared at Viconia with a wary gaze.
These days of desperate fighting and the staggering casualty rate have inevitably made him develop a strong hatred for the dark elves.
If it weren't for the fact that the warrior who came back to report had mentioned that the Drow woman in front of him had killed many of his fellow clans in battle, he would have even been able to skip the interrogation and have her executed.
"Humph! Stupid guys.
Who do you think you're talking to?
Do you think you can threaten us with just a few hundred troops?
Standing here at the moment is the son of Baal who has killed Ust Nasza in the dark region and terrified the dark elves of the entire city.
They can kill you all the same way whenever they want.
So shut up!
Put away that ridiculous arrogance and arrogance, or I promise you'll die an ugly death. ”
Viconia obviously didn't eat this, and directly turned on the poisonous tongue and intimidation mode.
Although she has long been out of the control of the original race and the spider goddess Rose, the contempt for the bottom elves formed by hearing and seeing since she was a child is still engraved in her bones.
Erhan was clearly enraged.
Just when he subconsciously held the enchanted scimitar and just wanted to give Viconia a little color, the priest who was performing magic next to him immediately said in unison in an extremely shocked tone: "Tell the truth! She...... All she just said was true! ”
"What? Truth! What do you mean...... Did these people really kill Uster Nassa, causing the dark elves of the entire city to flee in fear? ”
Erhan was momentarily stunned, his pupils dilated rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he seemed a little unable to believe the judgment of the priests.
After all, Uster Nasza is inhabited by tens of thousands of dark elves, and even a very small part of them will make the forest elf kingdom feel like a great enemy, not to mention killing through the opponent's base camp.
Even the bards, who like to depict heroic stories in exaggerated ways, are afraid to choreograph such plots.
But he also knew that the biggest feature of the [Honest Domain] magic was that people in the coverage area could not lie.
Therefore, since Viconia can speak so fluently, it means that there is absolutely no part of lying in it.
General Sopharidas gasped and began to quickly sweep around the squad members, before he asked, "Which of you is the son of Baal?" ”
"All three of us!"
Sancho took the initiative to step forward, first at himself, then at Aberdel and Ammon.
Next Second......
All the elves, including General Sopharidas and Elhan, opened their mouths in shock.
Because they couldn't have dreamed that half of the six-person team in front of them were actually sons of God.
In particular, the aura deliberately released by Sancho made everyone feel the urge to kneel down and worship.
At this time, if General Sopharidas, who is a high-ranking member of the Elven Kingdom, still doesn't understand what is going on, he can die.
He immediately raised his hand and motioned for all the priests to stop the magic and hurriedly stroked his chest with one hand and bowed deeply to the excessively young human boy in front of him.
"I'm so sorry, Venerable Son of God, please forgive us for our previous offense."
"Hah! It's so much fun! The way you look now reminds me of those goblin slaves who bully the weak and fear the hard. ”
Viconia sneered mercilessly.
However, just when this guy wanted to further stimulate these forest elves, Sancho stopped her provocation with a sharp look and said straight to the point: "Your Excellency, General, I know that you have accumulated a lot of resentment and hatred by fighting with the dark elves here.
But the problem is that we're not your enemies, we're Erenikas' enemies.
The reason why we have pursued him here from the Dark Regions is to be able to kill him and take back from him the fate of our companions' usurped lives.
You can understand that this is a civil war of the sons of Baal.
So if it's convenient, it's a good idea to point out the way to Sodenisra.
The sooner we get there, the sooner your cities and countries will be liberated. ”
"The fate of being usurped? Civil war in the Sons of Baal? You mean that Prenares has taken away the divine power and divinity of a son of Baal! ”
After realizing what Irenikas had done, General Sopharidas's breathing suddenly became rapid, and his heartbeat accelerated to three times his usual level.
He now finally understood why the once-revered High Mage had closed the entrance to Sodenisra.
It turned out that what the other party wanted was to absorb the huge energy of the Tree of Life to seal the gods.
If this blasphemous creature succeeds in the end, then every elf of Sodenisra will become a true sinner.
But soon, General Sopharidas showed an extremely bitter smile and replied helplessly: "Although I very much want to show you the way.
Unfortunately, after the raid on Sodenisra, the preando had already sealed the entrance with the help of the power of the Magic Lock.
Now even we can't find our way home. ”
"What? Is there no other way? ”
Jahira asked, frowning.
"There's a way.
In this temple, an artifact with powerful magical powers was originally enshrined, the Lamp of Lane.
It is engraved with ancient magic charms and blessings bestowed by the elven gods.
There is no force in the world that can prevent them from returning to their homeland.
Therefore, as long as you hold the Rayne Lamp, whether it is a magic lock or any other illusion or enchantment, it will instantly manifest its original form and lose its original effect.
But the problem was that it was stolen after the Dark Elves launched a raid.
Even our mages worked day and night to investigate its whereabouts through prophecy magic, but to no avail.
If you can recover the magic lamp, we can join forces to kill and make Prenares pay for his actions. ”
Realizing that this adventuring party might be his greatest helper, General Sopharidas told all the important information in one fell swoop.
Because he knew full well that in the current desperate situation, the Son of Baal was the last hope to stop Irenikas.
At this time, if you still hide it, it is tantamount to self-destruction.
"Ryan's lamp? Well, we'll figure out how to find it. ”
Realizing that he could not get any other useful information from the forest elves, Sancho ended the conversation and quickly left the humble camp with his team, intending to return to the Mage Tower in Ascatla to find his mentor first.
But before the group could go far, a female figure with pale skin and a black tights slowly walked out from behind a towering tree.
The astonishing negative energy and pungent smell of blood she exuded suddenly made the team members who were fighting at high intensity along the way, and who didn't have time to rest at all, pull out their weapons and assume a posture of vigilance.
In particular, Sancho, who could control his divine power to a certain extent, immediately judged that the other party was a powerful vampire lord who could move freely against the fiercest sunlight at noon.
"Relax, I'm not here to find trouble. On the contrary, I'm here to give you a prop you need to enter Sodenisra. ”
As he spoke, the vampire pulled out a beautiful lantern made of unknown metal from behind him.
Through the surrounding lenses, you can clearly see the dark purple glow revealed inside, as well as a large number of magical runes unique to elves on the inside of the metal part.
On top of that, it exudes a faint divine power, exactly as General Sopharidas had described before.
"Why are you helping us?"
Sancho was cautious and did not immediately pick up the lantern, but instead looked at the female vampire with short black hair and a proud figure.
"Do you think that's what I want?
No, if I had to choose for myself, I wouldn't have brought you near Irenikas.
It's a pity that this is the will of the owner.
And I can't go against the will of my master. ”
With that, the female vampire stepped out of the shadows and casually placed the Lane Lamp on a flat stone, with a look of resistance and hostility on her face.
You don't need to ask to know that she is none other than Irenikas' last blood relative in this world, the vampire queen Badi.
Although he couldn't disobey Zuo Si's order as a brigade mage, he couldn't help but feel pain and sadness in his heart when he realized that his brother was about to die at the hands of this group of people.
"Master?"
Ammon blinked curiously.
She couldn't understand what kind of person could control such a powerful vampire lord and force him to do things against her will and ideas.
Unfortunately, Badi apparently didn't want to explain too much, and immediately turned into a bat and flew away after putting down the lantern.
Jahira walked straight up and picked up the Ray Lamp, first carefully checked it to make sure there was no problem, and then sighed slightly and said, "Okay, I think we finally got the key to Sodenisra now." However, no matter how you look at it, I feel very uneasy. ”
"You're overthinking."
Sancho apparently sensed that this was most likely the work of his mentor, and quickly took the lantern and lit it.
As faint white smoke and brilliant light began to emerge from inside, some of the towering trees scattered throughout the surrounding forest immediately distorted.
The trunk of one of the large trees immediately swelled to a diameter of more than several hundred meters, and a spiral staircase appeared out of thin air near the branches above.
Undoubtedly, this staircase is the entrance to the city of trees, Sodenisra.
Before, it was perfectly concealed because it was protected by a magic lock.
"Are you going to inform the forest elves?"
Aberdale asked in an uncertain tone, staring at the entrance.
Without hesitation, Sancho replied, "No." This is a battle and a trial that belongs to us, and there is no need to involve outsiders. Let's go, it's time to settle the reckoning with Irenikas. ”
"I'm going to kill this evil mage with my own hands! Dig out his black heart and liver out of his stomach and avenge Dinah Hei! Minsk snarled with a hideous expression.
Although his brain is not very good, he will never forget how Irenikas brutally killed the witch he had sworn to protect with his life.
Also frightening is the fact that he has endured all kinds of torture in the Tower of Durag, and at the same time, he has been stripped of his divinity and divine powers, and almost becomes Aberdell, who has no reason and only knows how to kill like crazy.
Seeing that his teammates were mentally prepared, Sancho took the lead and was the first to get in without saying a word.
The rest followed.
However, instead of taking the Lane Lamp, they left it near the entrance.
If the forest elves send a team to patrol the vicinity, they should soon find that the entrance to Sodenisra has been opened, and then go back with the rest of the army to reclaim the occupied city.
Just as the three sons of Baal descended the staircase to the top floor, they were amazed by the beautiful city built on the tree of life.
Far away in the palace on the other side of the city, Irenikas has broken the seal and defeated his former lover, and is standing in the power nodes inside the Tree of Life, placing the insects molded by magic and divine power in their designated places one by one.
When the elven queen saw this, she immediately struggled to get up from the ground and cried out loudly, "No! Don't do it! Please! Jonnares! Turn back now and give up your unrealistic ambitions. ”
"Give up?
It's all come to this point, and you still want me to give up?
No, dear.
The last time I relented, the price was to lose everything I had as an elf and to be brutally banished from my homeland.
I won't trust you again this time.
I will take back everything that belongs to me through my wits and hands.
Look, I'll prove that those elven gods are nothing great. ”
With that, Irenikas stood at the heart of the Tree of Life and began chanting jerky magic spells.
At his urging, all the huge insects invariably plunged their needle-shaped mouthparts into the trunk of the tree of life, continuously extracting the indescribable amount of energy inside.
With this frenzied sucking, the bug's belly soon bulged and bloomed with a green glow that symbolized life energy.
At the same time, Irenikas uses a magical ritual to transfer the energy from the worm's stomach to his body and soul.
It didn't take long for him to regain his elven essence and outward characteristics, which he had been deprived of.
The most obvious thing is the automatic detachment of the human skin magic mask on the face, revealing a thin and handsome face.
At the same time, long golden and silky hair grew on the bare head again.
Obviously, this is what Irenikas looked like when she was a high mage of the elves, and the man that Queen Alistar loved so much.
But compared to his appearance, what really thrilled Irenikas was that his elven soul was back.
He didn't need to ask to know that he had already determined at this moment that as long as the entire plan was successfully completed, he could be promoted to an elven god one hundred percent.
Inadequate!
Far from enough!
I want more!
Irenikas roared in a frenzied craze.
By this time, he had completely forgotten everything, given up everything, and sacrificed everything just to finally cross the line between mortals and gods.
In about half an hour, the mad mage's body began to shine with a god-like majesty.
Seeing that she could no longer redeem her former lover, Alixing closed her eyes in despair, lying on the ground and crying silently, while her physical condition was deteriorating, emaciated, and aging at an unimaginable rate.
If you look closely, it is not difficult to see that her situation seems to be closely related to the tree of life that covers the sky and the sun at her feet.
The more energy Irenikas extracted, the weaker the elven queen became.
It is foreseeable that if the entire tree of life is completely drained, then Alixing will inevitably die with the former.
But unfortunately, there is no one in the entire palace to stop Irenikas at the moment.
The elven warriors, mages, and priests who looked at death were all mutilated and piled up in the room at the entrance.
And the queen herself has been drained of all her power, and now she can't even release the most basic zero ring magic technique.
Irenikas proved how terrifying a legendary mage can be when he goes all out, and can easily destroy a city or even a country on his own.
Even the Elven Realm, which has a large number of high-level warriors, mages, rangers, and priests, is no exception.
Just as Alixing began to feel that her body was getting heavier and heavier, and her consciousness began to blur, she suddenly found that Zuo Si's figure actually appeared on the stump of a tree only a few steps away from her, and she even held a handful of Raspberries from Sodenisra in her hand, and threw them into her mouth one after another, looking relaxed and comfortable.
"Your Majesty Soth?!"
The elven queen first rubbed her eyes, confirmed that this was not a fantasy, and then opened her mouth to try to call the other party.
"Shh
Zuo Si put a finger on his lips to signal silence, then walked straight to the front to help Alixing up, and asked with a smile: "Dear Queen, you don't seem to be looking good now, why don't you eat some raspberries and take a break?" ”
Alixing smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Thank you for your kindness, but I can't just eat a few raspberries."
If no one can stop Irenikas, the Tree of Life and I will end up with death.
And it will also wipe out all the plants within a radius of several kilometers around it.
The elven villages scattered around the Forest of Verdas will also disappear due to the loss of protection.
But I'm a little curious, are you ready to intervene when you appear inside the Tree of Life at this time? ”
"Hehe, of course not.
Actually, I'm just here to see the show.
Just half an hour earlier, my disciple Sancho and two other sons of Baal had arrived in Sodenisla.
Now they are fighting demons, beasts, golems, golems and other creatures in the city.
It shouldn't be long before we get here to fight Irenikas.
So you don't need to be so pessimistic at all, but believe in the arrangement of fate.
Come, eat some raspberries to lighten your mood. ”
As he spoke, Zuo Si graciously grabbed a handful of raspberries and stuffed them to Alixing, eating them while admiring the magic god sealing ceremony created by Irenikas in the distance.
I have to say that as one of the two existing magic systems in the Faren Continent, the elves' high magic does have its own uniqueness.
At least with enough time to prepare, the dominant magical system that has evolved from the Netharel era today is hardly going to take advantage of the confrontation.
In particular, those insects that absorbed the energy of the Tree of Life gave Zuo Si great inspiration and inspiration.
In his opinion, it was similar to the Elder Gods of the Azeroth universe next door.
They are the kind of people who can be like parasites, sneaking into places with huge energy sources to draw power, and then exert influence on the energy sources to gradually transform them in the direction they want.
It's just that the workmanship of these bugs of Irenikas is still very rough, and many details are not perfect, and there is considerable room for improvement.
But considering Irenikas's tight schedule, it was not easy to complete such a huge amount of work in a short period of time.
As for the other party's practice of stimulating divinity by absorbing a large amount of life energy, Zuo Si didn't want to make too many evaluations.
Because the risk is just too great.
You must know that Irenikas does not even have a single believer in the mortal world, let alone an organized church.
This also means that even if he succeeds in becoming a god in the end, he will soon fall to an extremely weak state without the support of mortal beliefs, and even go directly to the astral realm to lie down.
The elven gods don't even need to fight, just drag it for a while and this guy will blow himself up.
Therefore, Zuo Si believes that the deepest desire in Irenikas' heart is not so much to become a god, but to hold his breath to ask the elven gods for what he thinks is "justice......
