Chapter 262: Avatar Form
The body structure of the oak is not fundamentally different from that of humans.
The internal organs are complete, and the vascular lymph is normal.
Similarly, there is no trace of the existence of the three seas, and Duke has asked the Oaks, who do not have the so-called Three Seas, and their power does not come from this.
"Like a spirit animal, the power of the spirit naturally merges with the body."
Duke looked at Afi and Afi, and his perception was exploring deep into Afi Afi's body, and the arcane hand turned into a thousand threads, constantly releasing spiritual energy into the subtleties of the oak's body, perceiving every detail clearly.
bones, muscles, blood vessels...... And then to the cells.
Xiaoyi is like a high-precision computer, constantly digitizing the perception transmitted by Duke, outlining the human structure of Afi Afei in the sea of spirits.
There are already many similar data samples in Xiaoyi's database.
Spirit beasts, elves, humans, and even ordinary flowers and plants, he has asked Xiaoyi to carry out three-dimensional modeling.
The cognition of spiritual mysteries is from these levels, bit by bit.
In order to practice quickly and lead the world.
"This spiritual force, which merges naturally with the body, is similar to the force of nature but different, or, it can be described as 'rubber'." As soon as Duke had the idea, Xiaoyi updated the new name of Oak Power in the database.
Afi Afi is an oak who has awakened the oak spell, and the rubber power in her body is similar to the power of the arc mage, so she can be called an oak mage.
Duke then examined Sikusiku's body, which, like Afi and Afi, also had a mysterious power in Sikusiku's body that resembled the force of nature, which fused perfectly with the body.
But it is slightly different from the strength of rubber.
"Let's call it 'Oak Wars.'" Duke gives a definition.
At this point, we have a general understanding of the strength composition of the Axiba tribe's oaks, which are divided into two types: rubber power and rubber war power. Master the power of oak and become an oak mage; Master the power of Oak Warfare and you can become an Oak Warrior.
"Lady Gods, I've brought the acorns you wanted." The Oak Spirit walked into the treehouse with two female oaks carrying fruit bowls.
Duke picked up an acorn directly with his hand, and then the inextricably linked tentacles had penetrated deep into the acorn to perceive everything.
"Hmm!" Duke narrowed his eyes, "The oak trees here are nourished by the spiritual spring, although most of them are not spiritual plants, but the acorns contain special natural powers, which should be the source of the power of arubber and the power of rubber warfare. β
When he finished perceiving, he handed the acorn to Afi Afi: "Eat it." β
At the same time, Ao Hand once again turned into a thousand threads, piercing into Afi Afi's body, monitoring every change in her body.
"Yes, Kami-sama." Afi Afi held the acorn and responded respectfully.
There is no need for translation, Xiaoyi is already on the Douqi holographic screen, translating what Afi Afei's words mean.
Duke calls this language Oak Language, and Xiaoyi is collecting materials for Oak Language.
When the library is expanded enough, there will be no need for the Oaks to act as translators, and Duke will be able to speak directly to the Oaks.
Then.
Under Duke's gaze, Afi and Afi crushed the acorns one by one, chewed them, and swallowed them into their stomachs.
Within a few minutes, Duke received feedback on the changes in Afi's body through the perception of the Ao Shou.
The acorns digested in the other party's stomach, and the forces of nature were absorbed by her body, and then merged with the rubber power in her body.
"Sure enough, the power of rubber and the power of rubber warfare are provided by acorns. It's just that the individual constitution is different, which causes the power provided by the acorn to change in both directions. Duke repeated the experiment with Sikusiku, and the results were the same.
Theoretically, the more acorns an Oak eats, the more Rubber Power and Rubber War Power they will gain.
However, individual physique is different, some people have strong absorption, some people have weak absorption, and only oak people with strong absorption power have the talent to become oak mages and oak warriors.
"Alright, Afi Afi, Sikusiku, thank you for your hard work, you can go back and rest now." Duke sent the two guinea pigs away, then sat cross-legged on the futon and thought, "What an interesting race." β
Bound to the oak tree, it lives almost entirely on the oak tree.
"Is it true that they are a race that evolved from the fruit of the Ancestor of the Oak Tree, as the Oak Men say?" Reason made Duke hard to believe.
But the world is full of spirituality, and spirituality can create anything magical.
So, if it's really an acorn that comes down from a tree and becomes an oak, Duke won't just think it's an incredible phenomenon.
"It's not uncommon for elves to grow on trees, and then some oaks."
He rested in the treehouse, waited for his psionic energy to regain his full state, and his fighting spirit surged, and then began to explore around the Asiba tribe.
This area is basically plain, with no mountain undulations.
Not far away there is a large river, about 100 meters wide, that blocks the route of the Asiba tribe's eastward expansion. Oak fields are mostly located along the river, not next to each other, because some of the depressions are not suitable for oak trees.
"The location of the ancestor of the oak tree is here, let's talk about it later." Duke was light, bringing only a small pocket and an oak.
"Gurgling!" High Priest Abu Abu, on crutches, called out to Duke, "Lord God, please take this, Oak Heart, it will bring you good luck." β
"Oak Heart, what is this?" Duke took what the High Priest of Abu Abu had sent him like a lump of wood
The Oak Spirit said sadly, "It's a relic of the ancestor of another oak tree." β
"And another Oak Ancestor?"
"Yes, there were two oak ancestors here, and one of them gave birth to me. The other tree gradually withered and died in the process of giving birth to incarnation. Eventually, we found only a piece of oak heart from its roots. β
"What's the use of this thing?"
"I don't know, but I can feel it, it has a strong vitality, it's the life of the ancestors of the oak tree. Perhaps, find a way for it to germinate and grow into a new ancestor of oak trees...... It's a pity that the Asiba tribe has tried to find a way, but it can't make it germinate. β
"What does it mean to bring good luck?"
"With an oak heart, wherever there is an oak tree, you can get the guidance of the oak tree. Help the Oaks heal their wounds, regain their strength, and even find good things. Oak explained.
Duke shook his head: "It's a pity, I'm not an Oak. β
He handed the heart of the oak back to the high priest of Abu Abu, but the high priest shook his hands vigorously: "Gollum! β
"Abu Abu said, you are a god, and only you are qualified to use this Oak Heart. And you have protected the oak fields and saved the Asiba tribe, and the people have nothing good to offer but you with the heart of oak. β
Seeing that the high priest of Abu Abu was resolute, Duke did not refuse.
This oak heart, if it can really grow a three-ring tree king, it can be regarded as a treasure. It's just that Duke is skeptical that he can bring it back.
After all.
When he returned to the Seven Towers Federation, he needed to go through the Star Dream Realm, and it was difficult to guarantee what he could bring into the Star Dream Realm and what he could not bring in.
"Master, when you hang up, you have established breathing resonance with the heart of the oak, which has a special effect, and all oak trees within the range of breath resonance can passively obtain special vision, which greatly improves the detection effect of the breathing method."
Xiaoyi suddenly reminded.
As Duke walked outside, he stopped the air-hook breathing method and started to run it himself, and then he discovered the special effect that Xiaoyi said.
Originally, it was like a blind person experiencing the world by hearing, and his vision was blurred.
But at this time, in the vague gray perception area, there are oak trees one by one, showing bright colors.
Duke transmits consciousness to one of the oak trees.
The perception skyrocketed instantly, as if a colorful picture scroll appeared in front of him, everything around the oak tree was so clear, even an ant crawled over, and the entire trajectory could be clearly captured, which was clearer than the naked eye.
"Cool!"
Duke sighed: "Wherever there are oak trees, it's like I have an extra pair of eyes, and the whole oak forest, I can control every move." β
But then he sighed again: "It's a pity that the limited area is an oak forest. β
Once out of the oak forest, where there are no oak trees, the special effect of the Oak Heart cannot be reflected.
"But anyway, it's interesting." He wanted to bring the Heart of Oak back so that he could plant oak trees around his Duke Sage Tower, and the surrounding area would not be able to hide from him.
After playing with Oak Heart for a while, Duke handed the breathing method to Xiaoyi and moved on.
After a while, I came to the place of the ancestor of the oak tree.
There are no spirit animals entrenched.
Duke sat cross-legged on the branch, then looked at the Oak Spirit, "Come, Oak Spirit, let's try our senses together." β
"Yes, Kami-sama." Compared to the chick with a strong muscle, Oak is much more docile and almost obedient to Duke's words.
It followed Duke's instructions and bit down on Duke's finger.
The power of the elven pact emerged, instantly melting it into a puddle of brown liquid, which was then quickly absorbed by Duke's fingers.
A crispy and sour taste to the extreme surged into Duke's heart, just like when he was combined with a chick, this is the body being pulled by the power of the elf. Hands and feet, arms, thighs, lower back, chest, and head are all changing.
"Shhh...... Hiss...... Hiss......" Duke gasped, trying to get over the strange sensation of merging.
Five minutes passed.
The merger is over.
"Kami-sama, I'm one with you." Acorn's mind came to Duke's mind with joy and joy.
"yes." Duke waited for the sourness to fade before he began to look at his new form.
The original loose casual clothes are now like underwear, clinging to the body. Most of his arms were exposed, his calves were exposed, his shoes were torn, and his neckline was broken with several buttons.
"I'm three or four meters tall, right?" Duke smacked.
The elf form that fits with the chick is just over two meters tall, and now it feels like it has doubled in height.
The abundant spiritual power wandered in the new body, and the surging fighting energy couldn't help but escape outward, and the increase in power brought by the combination was too powerful.
He snapped his fingers quietly.
The arcane light flashed, and a mirror made of water appeared in front of him, which was a very simple 1-ring arcane-water mirror technique.
"Well, is this my new form, with brown eyes, elongated ears, long flaxen hair, wheat-colored skin, and a body as thin as a bamboo pole." Duke raised an eyebrow, "It's not as good as it was when it was with a chick, and now it's more like a wheat-colored Avatar?" β
The image is not good-looking, but if you look at it twice, Duke finds that his handsome face is still maintained.
Furthermore.
Behind his back, there are a pair of bat-like wings that can be flapped as flexibly as fingers, and a surge of force swells up to levitate him.
The effect is comparable to "Duke Flying Feather".
It's this pocket-sized outfit that makes him look nondescript.
"I knew that I should take off my clothes first and then fit them, which makes it, and when I get out of fit, I'm afraid I can't wear the clothes anymore."
Duke shook his head, but fortunately there was nothing but him and Xiaodou.
So he didn't care what he was wearing, he just sat cross-legged on the trunk of the ancestor of the oak tree, and began to realize.
Maybe it's the combined oak spirit, which is the spirit of the ancestor of the oak tree.
So it was almost just a breath of time for him to fall into the time reappearance of the ancestor of the oak treeβthe flow of water brought an acorn, which took root near the spiritual fountain and gradually grew into a towering oak tree.
And around it, another oak tree also rises from the ground, growing with it, sharing the rain, dew and sunshine together.
I don't know the years.
Until one day, a group of humanoids with thin bamboo poles came to the side of the oak tree, and they bowed down and sacrificed to the two oak trees.
Then they form tribes and live around oak trees.
There is no doubt that this is the original Oak Man, who were not transformed by acorns, but perhaps gained the power of the oak tree in the process of living with it.
Meantime.
It was also under their infection that this huge oak tree began to give birth to a flower bud. After the buds bloomed, a lovely caterpillar crawled around on it, and the oaks fed the caterpillar respectfully.
Then another oak tree began to give birth to buds, but instead of blooming, the oak tree withered and died.
The oak people wept bitterly over the dead oak tree.
Another period of time passed, and the caterpillar spun into a cocoon, and then feathered into a large brown butterfly.
This is the Acorn.
At this point, time is now over, and in Duke's sea of qi, an acorn from nowhere quietly sprouts and grows into a small sapling.
In the sea of spirits.
There was also a vision of an acorn tree born, but it did not sprout, but only rolled around in the spiritual sea, blending with other visions.
"The power of acorn wood." Duke opened his eyes, "The mystery of comprehension turned out to be the wood-transforming power that the oak tree bestowed on the oaks, and when they were injured, the wound could instantly be wooden, to stop bleeding, poisoning, and slowly heal." β
I have to say, this is a very powerful ability.
But for Duke, it seems to be a bit of a chicken rib, after all, almost all of his spiritual arcane abilities are used to stack armor.
If there is really a day when the armor is broken, I am afraid that the power of woodification will be difficult to resist.
"Either way, it's equivalent to another layer of armor, which is still good." Duke complained and complained, and was quite satisfied with the power of wood.
Stand up.
He looked up at the ancestor of the tall oak tree and sighed, "This time I have realized a lot of mysteries, and I also know that the oaks are not actually the acorns of the ancestor of the oak tree, they are just natives of the rainforest, and they have accidentally obtained the power provided by the oak tree." β
Then he thought differently: "If the oak man can gain power by relying on the oak tree, will he also gain power by relying on other similar tree kings?" β
The Axiba tribe is only a few thousand people, and it is not excluded that there are more oak tribes and other types of treant tribes outside.
Flapping his wings, Duke beckoned to Xiaodou: "Come up." β
"Tsk!" Xiaodou jumped onto his shoulder.
With a flap of his wings, Duke quickly disappeared into the rainforest, and in a short time, he flew several kilometers to the top of a tall tree.
Look ahead.
"It should be where the spiritual fountain is, a small lake." Duke did not get close to the spiritual spring, because of the existence of the magic spirit field, if you get too close, you will be attracted by the illusion, and you may get lost in the magic spirit field.
Moreover, the Dou Qi holographic screen showed that there were many powerful spirit beasts lurking near the lake.
This is all due to the fact that there are many oak trees growing near the lake, which provides Xiaoyi with an excellent detection effect and finds out the dangers one by one.
"There is no doubt that it should be a large spiritual spring, but there is only the ancestor of the oak tree, a three-ringed tree king, around...... No, it was the ancestor of two oak trees before, but only one died. Duke felt carefully and found that there were still many 2-ring spirit plants near the lake.
Each tree has the hope of breaking through the 3 rings and becoming the next tree king.
At this moment, there was a sudden tearing sensation in his body, but it was the time for him and the oak spirit to merge, and it only lasted for half an hour.
"God-sama, I'm powerless." The Acorn recondenses its body.
"The first time I fit together, it is inevitable that I will not be adaptable, come to rest in my sea of qi." Duke guided the Oak Spirit into the fairy paradise in his own sea of qi, "Talk to the chickens more, it will tell you what the world I originally lived in was like." β
The Oak was submerged in Duke's air.
Duke lifted his torn shirt and saw two elven marks on his stomach, one with 2 rings and one with 3 rings.
"When I contract more elves, I'm afraid this belly will have to turn green." Duke shook his head, brushed his shirt, and barely covered his stomach, "I'll use the illusion arcane to cover it up first, and then ask the oak to weave a set of clothes for me." β
β¦β¦
Without the destruction of the scavenger beetles, the oak people began to busily work in the oak fields, constantly replanting new oak saplings.
Duke also temporarily settled in the Asiba tribe, charging the star sigil while wandering around, roughly understanding the geographical environment around the Asiba tribe, and drawing a huge map and placing it in the central square of the tribe.
The high priest of Abu Abu and the chief of Sirasila were ecstatic about this.
They mobilized the female oaks of the tribe to make a huge drawing board out of oak boards, and then carved Duke's map into the oak boards.
This is enough to be an important legacy for the tribe.
"Oak Grove...... Aciba...... Fountain of Spirit...... "Duke is learning Oak and teaching Oak Taven at the same time.
In his spare time, he refined the spiritual materials obtained from hunting one by one, and began to try to make some tools. Teaching the oaks to use these tools is secondary, and the real purpose is to make their stay in the Ashiba tribe a little more comfortable.
The rainforest was too sweltering, so he wanted to make a civilian Arcane Card-Thermostat card to change the temperature of the treehouse.
Three days passed in a flash.
Before the materials for the thermostat were ready, and the Mark of the Stars was already filled with psionic energy, Duke closed the door to the treehouse.
Then activate the Mark of the Stars, and once again come to the Dream of the Stars.
For the first time, he spread out his hand and took a look, and found that the heart of oak held in the palm of his hand was indeed brought in by him.
"Great!"
Being able to bring it into the Dream of the Stars means that it can be brought back to the Seven Towers Federation.
Without much delay, he teleported to the farthest star that was lit up, and then quickly ran to the next star.
Touch, perceive, incarnate as the king of trees, and light up the stars.
After a set of flowing movements, run to the edge of the second star, repeat the above operations, and keep moving forward.
By the time fifteen minutes had passed, more than fifty stars had been lit up in the dream realm of the stars, but there were still countless stars that had not been lit up.
The starlight recedes and the scene distorts.
He returned to the treehouse and exhaled a cloudy breath: "There are more than fifty stars lit up, and none of them are in the territory of the Seven Towers Federation, all of them are in deserted and populated places...... How big is this wild continent, and how many places have not yet been explored. β
The Federation of the Seven Towers is already large, and humanity has established eighteen regimes and explored a large part of the area.
As a result, none of the more than fifty stars lit up by Duke was on the king of trees developed by humans.
"Shouldn't there be how many stars there are in the Stars Dream Realm, and how many Tree Kings there are in the Wild Continent?" He thought of a possibility, and suddenly felt his head grow, "If that's the case, how many of them do I have to light up to find the Tree King who has an intersection with humans?" β
The stars in the dream realm of the stars are almost endless.
And the tree kings developed by human beings, not counting those that have been cut down, only counting the tree kings that are still alive, I don't know if there are 5,000 in total.
"I hope I'm lucky enough to meet one of these five thousand tree kings in advance." Duke has given up on his plans to return directly to the Federation of the Seven Towers.
As long as you can return to the human habitat, you can change a few more airships and spend a year and a half to return home.
He got up and pushed open the window of the treehouse.
In an open space outside the window, Xiaodou was fighting with several oak boys, and with one enemy, the oak boys were defeated one after another.
It's a pity that even the Oak Boy can use the power of wood, and if he is pierced by the spikes of the small pocket, he will not bleed and be injured. It has to be said that this power of woodification is a miracle for the oaks, ensuring that they can survive in the dangerous rainforest.
If humans live here, relying on the number of thousands of people in a tribe alone, even the mages and knights will not survive.
"With the power of wood, these oaks are Xiaoqiang who can't be killed." Duke sighed.
"Lord Kami." High Priest Abu Abu, walking under the tree house on crutches, said, "When the tribesmen were planting oak trees, they accidentally discovered this, and it seems to have magical powers, and I have come to offer to the gods. β
In his hand, he held a beautiful crystal clear stone.
Duke felt familiar, and as soon as he beckoned, the stone was captured by the psionic energy and fell into his hand, and then he couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Isn't this a spirit crystal!" β
"Spirit crystals?"
The chick who was teaching the knowledge of the oak spirit in the sea of qi felt something in his heart and rushed out directly from the sea of qi: "Where is the spirit crystal?" β
Seeing the spirit crystal in Duke's hand, the chick suddenly cracked its big mouth and bit down: "I haven't eaten the spirit crystal for several days...... Quack...... True...... Quack...... Delicious...... Quack...... ......"
Duke ignored the chicks.
Jumping straight down from the treehouse: "Abu Abu, let someone take me to the place where the spirit crystal was discovered." β
On the way there, Duke had already calmed down, and in fact, it was not uncommon to find spirit crystals, but there would basically be spirit mines around the large spiritual springs. Even some medium-sized spiritual springs are surrounded by spiritual ores.
Moreover, the spirit ore is certainly valuable, but here in the oak forest, I don't know how far it is from the Seven Towers Federation, and Duke can't transport it back.
So at most dig a little now and feed the chicks and acorns.
"This is it, Lady God." The Oak who saw the Spirit Crystal and talked to Duke excitedly, and it was a great honor for the Oak to be able to talk to the gods.
Duke glanced around his surroundings.
This is the Oak River, the largest river here, about 100 meters wide, and there are powerful aquatic spirit beasts that jump out of the water from time to time.
"Dig." Duke pointed to the ground.
The oaks immediately began to dig indiscriminately with their shovels, and within a few moments, they unearthed another shining spirit crystal.
"Sure enough, there is a spiritual mine distributed here, and it is a shallow spiritual mine, and the spirit crystal is naturally exposed on the surface." Duke touched his chin.
Then he ordered: "Send some people to continue digging here, and dig up more spirit crystals for me." β
Captain Batu nodded, "As you wish, Lord God." β
Duke watched the oaks digging for the spirit mine, and suddenly thought of something: "Shouldn't there be a god molting here, I have to stay away!" β
Shaking off his cloak made of leaves, Duke braved the light rain and returned to the Asiba tribe.
