Chapter Ninety-Seven: Moonlight Glade
The original location of the Cat Man Village has now been replaced by a vast forest.
Even the cat-eared little Lori, who grew up here, couldn't recognize it at all after seeing it.
"Big ...... Big brother, how can this be like this?"
Uncle almost blurted out the two words, but fortunately, Jill changed his name alertly.
Because it wasn't just them, but Calamity Wind and Vivien were also walking along.
Calamity couldn't see anything strange about this forest, but Vivien was different, she was a druid who loved nature, so she vaguely felt that there was something strange about this forest.
"This is the forest where the moon elves live?"
Calamity Wind and Chen Mo reached an agreement, she helped Chen Mo find out information, and Chen Mo provided a reward and a safe place to live.
Mainly because Vivien has always been interested in the residence of the Moon Elves. Calamity Wind had consulted with her before making a decision, but only if she had visited the place first.
It's just that no matter how she looks at it, it's just a very ordinary forest, a little bigger at most.
Chen Mo himself was also surprised, when he left, there were only a few trees and the base of buildings, how could it become such a vast forest in just a few days?
Could it be......
When Chen Mo and the others stood on the periphery of the forest, the trees in the forest suddenly moved away from the left and right sides, making way for a road.
Chen Mo himself was also taken aback.
Anyone who has ever seen a group of trees move to the left and right like automatic doors, that would be too weird.
Calamity Wind and Vivien were also speechless, because the scene was really weird, and it was probably only the cat-eared little Lori who felt fun.
But as the master, Chen Mo had nothing to fear, so he took Ji'er's hand and walked in slowly. The two girls in the back hesitated, but thought that since they had all come here, they chose to follow.
After the four entered, the entrance to the forest closed again.
In this way, the trees in front of them kept parting as they went, and then closing as they passed.
Now Calamity Wind is no longer talking about this forest is ordinary or anything, she has never seen such a strange forest in Azeroth and this world combined.
Vivien on the side was full of doubts, as a druid who loved life and nature, this forest felt very strange to her.
Like alive, and like dead.
Although the plants and trees here are full of business, Vivien has not been able to explore their consciousness and has never been able to find a way to communicate with them.
Not the kind of explicit refusal, but as if no one was home at all.
These trees look good, but they feel as if they have no soul.
But faintly, Vivien felt that these trees were "watching" them all the time......
The inconsistencies of the two puzzled Vivien.
And in this forest, there are no birds and beasts......
As we went deeper, the trees grew taller and the less sunlight seeped through the forest, and the surroundings began to get darker.
Coupled with the trees in front of which have been silently separated from the left and right, it seems to be the atmosphere of a horror movie.
The cat-eared little Lori was also in a happy mood, and her little hand grabbed Chen Mo tightly.
Suddenly, there was a faint light in front of everyone.
Not the brightness of the sun, but the soft glow of the moonlight.
After going on for a while, as soon as the trees in front of them parted, everyone could see clearly where the light was coming from.
It was a tree in a clearing, about three meters high, which could only be regarded as a small tree, and its appearance color was obviously different from that of normal trees, showing an albino state. However, this particular torso and branches and leaves are now emitting a faint moonlight.
There is not just one such tree, there is one such tree about every few hundred meters in the forest. In addition, there are no other miscellaneous trees except the grass on the ground.
Compared to the dense woods when you entered, the interior of the forest is much more empty, and the incredibly large canopy above the sky and the sun create a unique spatial environment.
Calamity Wind realized that the woods they had walked for more than ten minutes were just an outer barrier.
"This is ......"
Vivien walked over to the tree that emitted the moonlight and observed it for a moment, then suddenly knelt down and prayed, as the tree was radiating the faint power of the moon god Elune.
"This is Tsukiki, a tree that evolved after receiving the blessing of the moon god Elune. 」
Suddenly, a female moon elf walked out from behind the moonwood.
He was about twenty years old, and wore the same priestly robes as Tylanda.
"Welcome back, Starlight. 」
The other party greeted Chen Mo first, and waited for Chen Mo to nod in response before continuing to say to Vivien.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, although we are a little different in appearance, we are all from the same race, and it is rare to meet a foreign companion. I'm Anissa Moonflower, the High Priestess of the Moon Elves, and welcome you to the Moonlit Glade. 」
Moonlight Glades, the new name of this forest.
Vivien quickly stood up and said respectfully.
"I'm Vivien? Starry Night. Hello, High Priest. 」
"Anisa, tell us about the situation here, the three guests. In addition, they will stay and live, and you will arrange this as well. 」
This Moon God High Priest Chen Mo is no stranger, because the first moon spirit to appear is her, and she is also the one who speaks to call Chen Mo the light of the stars.
In addition, to be honest, Chen Mo didn't know much about the situation here, and he didn't know how to explain to the two of them, this place had changed too much compared to when he left.
So now, he's going to find the guy who understands what's going on.
"Obey you, Light of the Stars. Come with me, several. 」
After Ainisha saluted elegantly, she led Ji'er, who was a little uneasy to leave Chen Mo, and left with a curious face.
Chen Mo walked to the original site of the Catman Village.
But that place has now been replaced by a giant tree of unimaginable size.
It was the tree of life planted by Chen Mo himself.
When Chen Mo left, the Tree of Life was only 100 meters tall, but now it is more than 1,000 meters tall, so I really don't know how it grows.
Only in this way can the amazing canopy of trees cover the entire forest.
Moreover, this giant tree also belongs to the moon tree, and its body exudes the richest moonlight in the forest.
The Moon Elves have established a village under the Tree of Life.
Unlike in the game, buildings are all combat units.
In addition to some of the moon elves of combat professions, there are also some ordinary people with various crafts.
After all, the classes in the game don't need to eat, sleep, and replenish, but in reality they can be different.
When you are hungry, you need to eat, and weapons and equipment need to be built, which requires a lot of manpower to be responsible.
But one thing, there is no need to worry about any resources or energy here, just go all out.
Because on the surface, this is the residence of the Moon Elves, but secretly, it is also the development base of Cashindran.
Beneath the Tree of Life, there is a Crystal Cave.
The crystals here take the place of the game's gold mines, providing the Tree of Life and the forest's endless energy.
Chen Mo walked into the crystal cave, and a voice suddenly sounded in his consciousness.
"Welcome back, Commander. 」
"Adjutant, report on the current progress of the base. 」
"Report to you, Commander. 」
At this time, a stream of information came into Chen Mo's consciousness, and Chen Mo guided him into the library to build a book and browse it.
As Chen Mo expected, most of this forest was created by Barton.
The outer forest when they came in was actually a crystal replica of Barton after analyzing ordinary trees, which is why there were so many of them in just a few days.
Because of the mimicry effect attached, they look the same as normal trees. Vivien couldn't feel the soul because they didn't have such a thing at all, but the system mastermind managed it uniformly.
In the near future, Barton plans to add replicas of birds, beasts and insects, so that it can be regarded as a complete ecological environment.
They are the perimeter of the base's defenses, watching over everything that enters the woods and preventing them from approaching the forest. In addition, they will expand outwards as the Tree of Life grows, making the interior of the base more and more space.
As for development, the ground is dominated by the Moon Elves, Patton does not intervene except to provide energy and resources, and Cashindran's development is underground.
Deep in the underground of the forest, Barton carved out a large space, and all the earth and stone were converted into energy crystals by Barton. That's the terrible thing about Cashindran, as long as there is matter, there is no worry about not having energy.
Chen Mo was then teleported into this underground space.
It's like the Cashindran style that Chen Mo knows, with crystals everywhere.
There are also crystal towers and crystal turrets that Chen Mo has seen have also been built here, so that whatever situation is on the ground, it can be teleported in real time.
In addition, there are a lot of armor and the like, and there is also a team of crystal replicas of the moon elves, which are no different from real people after mimicry, and are used to deal with the guys who invade the forest.
After all, the current strength of the Moon Elves is still too weak, and it has only been developed for a few days. With such a team of powerful Moon Elf clones here, it can come in handy many times.
Anyway, there is no one in the forest, and the intruder probably can't tell the difference.
However, the armament aspect is still secondary, and the main building in this space is the research center that Barton said.
It's a huge crystal pyramid, and the reason it's huge is that it has to carry more units of computation to study and parse.
Generally, after obtaining a sample of the replica, it will be used to study how to make the replica stronger and more perfect.
Like the woods on the ground and the mimicry of the Moon Elf clones, this ability is deduced from this place, and it can be said that it is a very important building.
And now most of the resources here are studying how to make the crystal seed grow in Chen Mo's astral boundary. Barton, who had actually seen the existence of the astral plane, knew that it would be a long project.
But as long as the research is successful, Cashindran may have an unprecedented evolutionary direction.
"But there's something to report to you, Commander. 」
Barton said, and then another stream of information was transmitted to Chen Mo.
It was a sight.
At the edge of the forest, a group of canine-like monsters wandered.
And the one who leads them is the werewolf hunter of that evil camp.
