Chapter 728: The Way of the Wild
"I don't think we can convince each other in this regard, so let's make a bet." Gavin thought about it for a long time and finally came up with a compromise.
"Gamble? We're not going to bet on forests. The King of the Elves of the Forest of Silminster, who was sitting opposite Gavin, said stubbornly.
Although Gavin had no way to convince the other party, the natural identity of a series of blessings on his body still had some effect, at least they did not attack at the beginning, and after determining that Gavin did not have the intention of solving the problem between them by force, he took the initiative to appear from the forest and invited him into their camp.
Although the other party calls himself the king of the elves, he is actually only the leader of the green elf tribe of less than a thousand people, named Benavides Artur, a young elf who does not look more than thirty years old, but he has been active in the forest of Sylminster for more than two hundred years.
It was precisely because he arrived at their camp and saw their living conditions clearly that Gavin completely gave up and stopped trying to persuade them verbally.
The way of nature advocated by this tribe of green elves is not just words, but integrated into their words and deeds, not to mention those stone buildings, not even the kind of tree houses of elves, only low and narrow animal skin tents, which can only accommodate a few people to sleep in them.
The supplies in life are all from the forest gifts, which are called simple when they sound good, and they are similar to primitive tribes when they are ugly.
Even the clothes on the body are pitiful, only natural materials such as animal skins and leaves are used to wrap the important parts of the body, and there are various totem tattoos on the large areas of bare dark brown skin on the body.
Even Gavin, who is not particularly interested in totem tattoo painting, can't help but praise it when he sees the totem tattoo painting that they have perfectly integrated into daily life and body.
The green elf's totem tattoo painting is not just as simple as art, but rises to the level of magic.
They have a form called totem magic, which is drawn onto bodies or objects to create temporary or permanent magical effects.
Therefore, the totem tattoos on their bodies are not simply tattoos, but also have various magical effects.
The druids produced by the wild elves are the best wild druids in Faeron.
Not only can they transform into a variety of animals and plants that ordinary druids can transform into, but they can also break the limitations of their profession and transform into one or more powerful species and beings that are not within the scope of the druid's transformation - full form transformation.
Not only do they have the appearance and strength of their transformation subjects, but they also possess their innate supernatural and special abilities.
Take Gavin's supernatural transformation as an example, he can imitate Shanopa to transform into her wyvern transformation, but with only appearance, there is no wyvern toxin in his tail thorn, and there is no way to use strong acid dragon breath.
Unless he can use a high-level supermorphic change, he can imitate it 100%, but it is a ninth-level psychic ability, and it requires Gavin Psychic Warlock to reach level 18 to cast it.
This is also the case with the Druids, and the Wild Elf Druids break this limitation, but only to the kind depicted in the totem tattoos on their bodies, like a unique specialization.
Many legends about druids who spent a long time in a state of wild transformation and eventually no longer returned to human form and chose to live with those animal races come from wild elf druids.
As for the number of totem tattoos, in addition to being talented, it is mainly related to the class level, and when the class level rises, you can choose additional totem tattoos.
"The patriarch is too arbitrary, you haven't even listened to my bet, how can you conclude that I am using the forest as a bet?" Gavin replied unceremoniously.
When he was sure that he couldn't get anything from Sylminster Forest, his attitude immediately became tougher, I'm not your son, why am I used to you?
"Since it has nothing to do with the forest, let's hear about it." Benavides' attitude softened slightly.
The extreme attitude of the wild elves is mainly focused on the use of forest resources, as long as it does not involve the forest, they are still relatively gentle, at least in terms of their attitude towards Gavin, although they believe in Ririfin, but the relationship between the elven gods and the human nature gods is good, and they still have to respect Merrikai.
In fact, he still attached great importance to Gavin's visit, otherwise he would have expelled him from the forest with a bow and arrows and sharp claws in the first place.
"We are bounded by the trees of the Silminster Forest, and I restrain my people not to step into the forest, and the patriarch restrains his own people, and does not threaten my people from outside the forest, including the goblins of Bloodgap City and the kobolds of Colossus City.
I'm going to develop and transform the forest outside of the Silminster Forest in my own way, and if we plant trees around it, you can't put them in your forest, and we'll have absolute control over whether we continue to grow or cut them down.
You continue to protect the forest in your own way.
Let time tell if my balanced approach is better for nature, or if your inflexible approach to guardianship is correct. ”
Since there was no way to reach a cooperation agreement with the elves of the Silminster Forest, Gavin had no choice but to settle for a mutually acceptable amicable agreement, at least to ensure that the relationship did not deteriorate and that the racial hatred between the goblins and the elves would ruin his entire plan.
It is nothing more than the abandonment of some of the natural resources that come from the Schillminster Forest.
Overall, it will not have much impact on the development of Bloodgap City and Colossus City, after all, Gavin is not prepared to cut down trees on a large scale here.
Not only are they not prepared to do it here, but they are not prepared to do it elsewhere.
His gaze was primarily fixed on dark forests and trees like those previously polluted by the Root of the Gods, and the more extreme naturalistic protectors of this wood would have to be raised.
Because this is not only the process of cutting down trees, but also purifying nature, only by completely removing the dark forces here can new trees be planted and the forest can heal itself.
The Dragon Oak Mother Tree is about to enter an attack mode, declaring war on the dark forces in the Elven Wilderness, and in the process, it will be easy to get a lot of dark wood.
Benavides' rigid face finally showed a hint of a smile and said: "You said earlier, Lord Guide, if you had made this point of view clear from the beginning, things would have been much simpler, as long as Lord Guide made sure that your people did not enter the forest on a large scale without permission, bringing destruction and threats here, we would naturally follow the path of peace." ”
Their attitude towards protecting the forest is tough and extreme, but they are not crazy.
At least they didn't jump out to intercept the conquistador's army as they built a road along the outskirts of the Silminster Forest.
When aiming the bow and arrow at the goblins in Bloodgorge City, he was also very restrained in not aiming the arrows at the core goblins of Bloodgorge City, even if he treated those goblin minions, the main thing was to expel them, and did not hurt their lives.
By the time they reacted, the number of goblins and goblins in Bloodgit City had reached a terrifying number, and once it really caused a full-scale war, it would be their beloved forest that would suffer in the end.
Their main intention is to draw the attention of the person who can make the decision to the other party and clarify their attitude to reach an agreement.
"Then we follow the ancient law, on the periphery of the Silminster Forest, standing stones as the boundary, so that everyone knows clearly where the boundary is, and I hope that the next time, when there is a dispute, it will be resolved through negotiation first, not by force.
While there is a long-standing racial feud between elves and goblins, but between the forest of Sylminster and the Bloodghm, we have shown enough sincerity and restraint to fight back if the cause is yours next time. ”
Gavin also took the opportunity to show his attitude, warning the elves of the Forest of Sylminster not to try to do whatever they want under the guise of protecting the forest, and if they did too much, they would not be polite.
"As long as they can abide by the protocol today, nothing like this will happen again." Benavides assured, "Now that business is done, we can talk about personal matters, I feel the breath of the totemic spirit in you, it should be the predatory bear that the hunting god Gurla tried to take from Usgar, if you can dedicate it to Ririfin, I believe that the Lord of the Leaves will send you a divine blessing." ”
The Beast Cult is not a god system, because it does not have a main god, and many of them are not even gods, but can only be regarded as quasi-gods or divine beings.
But it does not prevent it from having many peepers, because it belongs to primitive worship and has a very wide popularity among those beasts, primitive people and druids who advocate wild transformation.
As the spokesperson of the wild elves and the guardian of totem magic, the patron saint of the wild elves, Ririfin, also has a peep into the beast cult.
He fused a bear's primordial spirit, Magnar, and a treeman's primordial spirit, Rika, as his divine incarnation and physiognomy on the side of the Woodwoods, and gained a certain popularity among the half-elves and wood elves there.
Naturally, it was full of peeps at Gavin's Blue Bear Totem Spirit.
"If you do this, you won't be afraid of causing a conflict between the Lord of Leaves and the Father of Battle?" Gavin took the opportunity to inquire about the information, and at the same time felt the preciousness of the blue bear totem spirit, which was a treasure that even a medium divine power could be cared about.
"Failing to defend the blue bear, being corrupted and plundered by the god of hunting, is the responsibility of the father of battle, from that moment on, the blue bear is no longer exclusive to him, now you take it back, the ownership is in your hands, you can dedicate it to any god related to it, the father of battle has no right to hold him accountable."
Benavides patiently explained, "You don't have to make a decision in a hurry, we can guide you to feel the wild way of the Lord of the Leaves, he is the most suitable owner of the blue bear." ”
"Yes." Gavin nodded without hesitation and agreed, anyway, there was no harm in this matter.
I didn't make any commitments.
Although he knew that once the Blue Bear was dedicated to the Lord of the Leaves, Ririfin, his relationship with the wild elves would be greatly improved, and he could take the opportunity to expand his influence.
However, this is not in line with his original plan, and returning it to its original owner, Usgar, is the right way, which can not only expand his influence in the Usgar clan, but also pave the way for the future layout of the human war god system, such as the common plot to predator Calagoth.
This kind of sensitive goods can only be sold in one, and it is impossible to eat both benefits.
Compared to the extremely stubborn wild elves, Gavin preferred to include the Usgar barbarians in his sphere of influence first, because it was easier to do and more useful than the wild elves - even if they changed their view of themselves, their role was limited to the forest, and they would never easily follow him out of the forest to fight.
Not only them, but most of the elves as well.
The totem ritual of the wild elves is a combination of primitive people, which is to walk naked into the glade full of totem runes and live for a night, feel the breath of nature, and merge with it, so as to further find the wild power in the body.
Now that it is autumn, before the sun sets, the temperature in the dense forest has plummeted, and the cold is overflowing, Rao is Gavin is now in an amazing physique, and before he has the ability to be immune to cold, he still has to be affected by the external temperature.
It didn't take long for the cold to completely penetrate the tentacles into every bone of his body, firmly grasping Gavin's brain, making him feel the urge to give up, and at the same time, he couldn't help but wonder if this group of green elves was taking the opportunity to deliberately torture themselves?
But what good is it for them?
Instead of panicking Gavin, adversity made his thinking sharper and clearer.
What the other party wants to plot is the totem spirit in his hands, and if he offends himself, he will only push it away completely.
There must be a deep meaning in this that I haven't yet understood.
Since it is to tap into their wild transformation ability, most of them want to let themselves enter the transformation state, and perhaps in that state, they can taste the difference.
Wild Morph Gavin didn't.
The Blue Bear Totem Transformation He has one, which was previously given by the totem spirit Blue Bear in the process of enlightening the Blood Bear Tree.
When this ability was activated, Gavin involuntarily roared, the bones of his body clicked, and thick blue hair quickly emerged from his body, his head stretched forward, his mouth extended, and huge fangs grew out at a speed he could clearly feel.
The muscles of the arms swelled and lengthened at a visible rate, becoming as thick as the thighs.
This is the first form of the blue bear totem transformation, half human and half bear, and in general, the form of man and bear is mixed.
Then the body continued to swell until the whole body became fluffy, like an upright bear more than a human, it was a bear man state, at this time he had doubled the size of the original, and had a large size.
This is not the end, immediately after the waist and spine click, the body leans forward, the palms fall to the ground, and the body then expands in the form of a balloon, and soon grows into a behemoth with a body size of more than seven and a half meters.
The blue bear totem is not an ordinary giant bear, but a fierce blue bear, with a super large size.
This totem transformation is not the only transformation ability Gavin has, and he has no less use of supermorphosis transformation.
I don't dare to say that there are thousands of changes with supermorphosis transformation, at least the number of changes exceeds the seventy-two changes of Sun Monkey, and many objects can directly imitate changes - daily household items, common animals and plants, and so on.
But there is a limit, that is, there is a limit to the size of the transformation, small cannot exceed the small, large cannot exceed the large, and can only simply imitate the appearance, as for those creatures to make toxins, dragon breath and a series of supernatural and special abilities, there is nothing to be done.
The Ferocious Blue Bear is the only super-sized being on Gavin's side that can transform.
As for the five willow super complete body, it belongs to the merger skill, the five willow itself belongs to the plant, and there is no pain, and Gavin's own body shape has not completely changed.
It felt more like manipulating a giant machine, and Gavin dubbed it the Goliu Mecha for a reason.
Whether it is the supermorphic change or the blue bear totem transformation, although Gavin has used it before, it is only a superficial taste.
Not only because he is too busy to have time for deep research, but also because he has too many and too many abilities now.
Why use the ability to transform to blast enemies with a single blow of a war marauder or blast their heads open with a single shot of a death roar?
This is the first time that the Blue Bear Totem has been transformed for a long time, so take the opportunity to dig into this aspect of the ability.
Although he is not a true druid, the possibility of truly unlocking the ability to transform into a wild in the future is very slim.
But he specializes in the Changeling, and the ability to change is even more powerful and perverted than the druid's wild transformation.
Wild transformation only gives the druid the ability to transform into animals and plants, and the supernatural transformation of the changeling can incarnate everything in the world (theoretically).
The fourth-level supernormal change is only a low-level version, and there is a high-level high-level supernormal change of the ninth level, and that kind of transformation is not just a simple imitation of the appearance, but can also imitate a series of supernatural and special abilities of the other party.
Except for the duration of possession and the nature of the species does not change, all other aspects are exactly the same as the transformed species.
It's not easy to find a powerful changeling, but it's not difficult for Gavin to find a legendary druid to learn the way of wild transformation and improve his abilities in a roundabout way.
