Chapter 1297 101. The Secret of the Key of Power

"They are all dead, their bodies have even rotted away, and the key of power in their hands has also turned into dust. The key of power was originally created by the Lord of the Forest to stop the melee between the ancient trees of war, but the key of power The keys are not eternal, although they are the keys to unlock the seal, they are also part of our body."

"That's right, the name 'Key of Power' is a bit inappropriate, maybe we should call it 'Key of Sealing', this name is more appropriate."

"The lord of the forest originally just hoped that we could let go of our obsessions and manage this black forest together. Unfortunately, after so many years, no one has been able to gather the keys of power in the hands of all the ancient war trees and unravel the grievances that the lord of the forest has had on us. bondage."

"After that scuffle, only 49 ancient war trees survived in the forest. It is true that our ancient tree spirits have a life that is close to eternity, but it is not eternal after all. We will also be born, old, sick, and die. , After that war, until now, there are only twelve ancient war trees left in this black forest. We are all old, and the sealing circle restricts our freedom. For thousands of years, there are no new generation of ancient war trees here. Born in a dense forest, we are like the last batch of watchmen, watching over this forest."

"Look, everything here was originally dominated by the ancient tree spirits. When we were the strongest, we even drove away the dragons who lived here."

"But now, we have begun to decline a little bit, and even those reptiles from the dark forces dare to come to encroach on the Yero plane through the connecting channel."

"The twelve ancient war trees are all we have. Young humans, as long as you can get together the twelve keys of power, you can open the sealing circle that has been buried underground for thousands of years, and let us regain our freedom."

"Freedom, what a strange word this is!"

Every word of the Tree Weng is deeply engraved in my heart. These words are like a huge bronze bell, and the sound keeps echoing in my heart...

It is revealing the secrets of this forest to me, telling me the history of the ancient tree spirits on this plane.

A lot of glory of the ancient tree spirit clan has been submerged in the long river of time and disappeared in the dust of history, but this forest is still ruled by the ancient tree spirit family at least until now.

Tree spirits lived in every corner of the forest, but they disguised themselves as ordinary giant trees, and lived tolerantly until they broke the seal.

Unexpectedly, the people of the Green Empire have occupied this plane for decades, and they have never discovered that there is still a group of dryads living in the Black Forest.

……

Our team walked a long way in one breath, and the dense forest blocked my sight. Even if I turned around, I couldn't see the tall ancient war tree behind me.

Ever since Morayal had seen the ancient war tree, she had been immersed in her own world, and she followed the team towards the native village in the green valley forest.

Morayal has been thinking silently, maybe she has some new insights into some wood-type magic, I think her body is surrounded by a layer of faint wood-type magic elements, and the whole person exudes a A breath of life.

The poisonous flower vine beside her was finally able to crawl on the tree unscrupulously in this forest, like a giant forest anaconda.

"Where are we going?" Su followed behind me, staring at me curiously.

Only in front of me, she showed her lively side, like ordinary girl next door wandering in the forest with her skirt on her hands.

I looked back at Su, and every time I saw her, I could always find the shadow of Sister Guoguo in her, her frown and smile were very similar to Sister Guoguo.

At this moment, I realized that Su has grown up, and she has the right to know the truth of that matter.

"Hey, Jijia, what are you doing!" Seeing me staring at her blankly, Su whispered to me slightly shyly.

I just woke up and said to Su: "We need to go to the indigenous tribe to visit Elder Singer first. He is the elder of the largest indigenous tribe in the Green Valley Forest. He is also my old friend. I can learn from him. I bought some basic magic herbs here, such as kudzu root and silver leaf grass, you know how scarce these magic herbs are in the imperial capital."

Su asked me with a smile: "You get all your magic herbs from here?"

I walked forward side by side with Su, although the road was somewhat difficult, but this was already the road that the dryads tried their best to open up for us.

Said to Su: "I also have a medicine garden on the side of Xinliu Valley, just on the side of the round valley, where I grow some middle-level magic herbs, such as flame flower, living root grass, and golden thorn grass, which can be used to refine high-quality magic herbs. Healing potions, but some herbs are not yet fully mature, and we have to wait for a while."

Su knew about the round valley. She was the one who discovered that there was a group of tree demons living in that valley.

When she heard me mention the round valley, she smiled and said to me: "I've always been busy in the nursing home. Looking back now, I still miss the days when I lived in Xinliu Valley."

I looked at Su Tianjing's profile and said to her, "Maybe you miss the days of reading quietly under the lemon tree even more..."

"I can't go back, can I?" Her smile suddenly froze on her face, and she said quietly.

I rubbed my hands, and then said: "Actually, when I went back to El City this time, I saw that your house was still empty, but the lemon tree grew taller, and the shade could be covered. The whole backyard."

Hearing what I said, Su's mood suddenly improved a lot. She looked at me boldly and asked: "Hey, it was winter when you went back, how did you know that the leaves of that tree can cover my backyard?" ?”

I almost tripped over a protruding tree root, and when I looked back, there was nothing there.

I said to Sue, "Looks like Tracy told me, and like Cindy told me, oh yeah, you know what? Tracy's married."

"Arent?" Sue asked me.

"Yeah!" I replied.

After all, El City is too small, and there are almost no secrets in that small border town.

Standing in the shade of the tree, Su's white and greasy skin looked translucent, and her earlobes were like the pointed ears of elves, almost translucent.

She squinted her eyes and seemed to be thinking about the past, so she said to me: "Hey, we seem to have gone a little far, didn't we just talk about magic herbs?"

"That's right, magic herbs..." I rubbed my nose and said, "There are also some herbs that come from the Pai Plateau, but this part is not entirely mine, I just manage it on my behalf."

At this moment, Morayal, who was walking at the back, interjected, "Oh, I never thought you would be selling magic herbs in the imperial capital."

I think it is necessary for Morayal to understand me now. Her impression of me is only when I graduated from the War Elementary School of Magic, and she thinks that I am an apprentice who has just been promoted to a magician.

I stopped, took her hand, and said to her: "Actually, my pillar industries are not these. Currently, the largest industry is a magic-weave spider silk workshop I opened. In addition, I also have a good profit." The rune plate workshop, the copper hot pot and exhaust fan produced there are very good magic items, I also plan to produce a batch of magic table lamps and refrigerators, at least before the summer of this year, they will enter mass production..."

She re-examined me from top to bottom, looked at me with surprise and asked, "Can I think this way, you made these during your spare time while studying at the Royal Academy of Magic?"

"Almost!" I said.

Morayaer asked me again: "In addition, those orc servants of yours are still fighting against the Nibru tribe spider people with the aborigines here in the Yero plane?"

Su added on the side: "I heard that he also built a town of Trume in Tanton City. I thought you could take us to that town to take a look. It's too far away from here. Over there, it will take seven days even if you ride on horseback, and tomorrow morning I have to return to the Imperial Academy of Magic for morning classes, and you have to return to the Campbell Nursing Home before the Sola University scholar loses his temper."

Only two indigenous girls followed, listening to our conversation quietly all the way.

Katerina has been in charge of vigilance, even if this green valley forest is the territory of dryads, even if Morayal is accompanied by a poisonous flower vine, Katerina still keeps her head absolutely clear, hiding in the All unknown dangers are detected in the shadows.

I said to Su and Morayal: "Okay, let's go to Puyaka's house and take a look."

……

When we met Elder Singer, we felt the enthusiasm of the aborigines here again. They held a bonfire dance in the woodland. Dozens of young aboriginal girls wore extremely simple bark dance skirts and surrounded the bonfire Sing and dance together.

Today's aboriginal villages have undergone earth-shaking changes in just two months. The aborigines who have been supplemented with wheat cakes and meat have ruddy complexions, and the light green vegetable color has completely disappeared.

What is more obvious is that the weapons and equipment of this group of indigenous warriors are no longer bark armor, rattan shields, wooden bows and wooden spears. Most of the indigenous warriors wear leather armor, and some burly captain-level indigenous warriors wear chain armor. He carried an alloy bow on his back and held a white wooden spear with a black iron tip in his hand.

According to Elder Singer, these indigenous warriors who stayed in the village were just a reserve army that stayed behind in rotation, and the real warriors were all hunting the infiltrating giant spiders in the green valley forest.

There are also some things in this village that I can't accept, that is, wherever I go, I can see the faces of some giant spiders, and the disgusting and terrifying faces of countless giant spiders are made into dry skin, and then hung under the tree like this , There are still ten giant spider eyeballs on the dry skin, as if their souls are still imprisoned in this dry skin, people will feel the pores are creepy after seeing it.

After trading with the merchants in Tanton City, the aboriginal villages continued to increase some daily necessities from Tanton City, and these aborigines also began to gradually accept some new ways of life, such as linen, Various styles of clothes made of cotton and wool have replaced the bark armor worn by the aborigines, and various iron pots have gradually replaced stone slabs.

For Elder Singer, he knew that some herbs in the forest could be exchanged for more food, weapons, armor and some daily necessities.

This is the gift of the forest, and no one knows where these magical herbs are found better than these aborigines.

Morayal and Su stared dumbfounded at the sacks of wheat flour being carried out from Xinliu Valley by a group of female half-orcs. The natives in the village would each take a bundle of herbs and wait in line to exchange for these grains.

The mysterious big witch in the indigenous tribe still didn't see me, but he summoned Su and Morayal, and felt that when they came back from the big witch, they all got a little something, but unfortunately they didn't say what they got from the big witch .

After coming out from the big witch, when the natives in these villages looked at Morayal and Su, there was a kind of worship in their eyes, as if there was an urge to prostrate at their feet all the time, regardless of whether Morayal and Su Wherever Su went, the natives in the village would all avoid him one after another.

Morayaer saw the seeds of a few ghoul vines on the tassels hanging from the eaves of a tree house. He just reached out and touched them a little, and immediately a group of natives held a lot of them. Ghoul vine seeds are scrambling to give them to Morayal.

At the beginning, Morayaer thought that these natives wanted to trade with her, so she took out some magic crystals to exchange with these natives, but who knew that these natives put the seeds of the ghoul vine in Morayal On the palm leaves in front of Rayal, there was nothing to stop and run without turning around.

Kalancuo sent some seriously injured orc warriors and barbarian slaves to the aboriginal village to recuperate.

Orc warriors have an extremely powerful self-healing ability, and they will basically not return from the battlefield with not particularly serious injuries.

This is especially the case with the murderous barbarians, who prefer to die on the battlefield rather than recuperate their wounds.

It seems that the battle situation on the western front is more tragic than I imagined. There are nearly forty barbarian slaves in the indigenous village. They were basically stabbed from the left rib by the spider warrior with a black iron spear, and injured their inner organs. abdominal organs.

This happens to be the biggest weakness of this set of Nacoma black iron armor. The armor covering the left rib is not as strong as it looks, and the spider warrior can pierce the armor on the left rib with a full blow of the black iron spear.

As for the wounds on the orc warriors, there are all kinds of injuries, some are even strangely caused by eating some kind of berry in the forest by mistake, and the whole body is covered with green spots, and some are caused by the acid of giant spiders. The venom hurt the wound so much that it couldn't heal the worsening wound by itself, so it could only be sent to the indigenous village.

Fortunately, with Su's help this time, it was much more efficient for the two of us to treat the injured orc warriors and barbarian slaves together.

Su's healing experience is richer than mine, and her healing prayer is several times stronger than my hydrotherapy technique, and with the healing ability increase of that healing leaf, for these orc warriors, it's almost a 'healer'. Prayer' can make an orc warrior stand up again alive and kicking.

It was only after seeing Su's ability that I truly understood that this might be the ability possessed by the priests and battle priests in the Temple of the Statue of Liberty.

It's a pity that for some unknown reason, the Statue of Liberty would rather give up the belief of all the people of the entire Grimm Empire in order to issue an oracle to restrain the priests and priests in the temple.

The time I stayed in the indigenous village was very limited. I didn’t even have time to sit in Pujaka’s wooden house. I stepped on the dawn before the dawn of the imperial capital, passed through the portal of Xinliu Valley, and drove away from the plane of Yero. return.
