Elves Have Migrated to My Planter

Chapter 185 – Colossal Power (15)

“Long time no see, Narg.”

“You’ve gained a lot of weight, Rubens. The chaotic world continues, but is it because I have no reason to fight?”

“sh*t, don’t talk nonsense.”

A secret place. The man, whose body was so chubby that the roomy uniform was tight, coughed and played with her mustache.

The opponent who actually made fun of him smirked with his red eyes flashing. Long white ears that stand up, even fluffy, soft white fur.

However, the muscular body clad in armor under the rabbit’s head was more like a beast than a cute one.

“Long time no see. As expected, you are already acquainted with the commander, so there is no need for a grandiose introduction.”

“Kid, you seem to be on a winning streak as well.”

“Let’s get straight to the point.”

It was at that time that Benert, who received the king’s order, appeared. Likewise, those who were already familiar with each other talked about the operation right away without making any further noise.

The content of the operation is nothing other than an invasion of the Great Forest by mobilizing a large force.

It was an operation planned in accordance with the king’s greed to monopolize the Great Forest by rejecting Heinz’s proposal to join hands and attack from both east and west.

“I heard the news. There seems to have been a commotion there recently.”

“It’s hard to be too optimistic.”

Bennet told the two of the information he had gathered about the current situation in the great forest. It wasn’t very deep information, and he only knew the revealed facts about the state of the great forest and what kind of power the elves in Eden had.

“I heard everything beforehand. To be honest, you don’t even have to think hard about it. Because they have a big weakness. The world tree, if only that was destroyed, the elves would lose their will to resist. Even the existing world tree has been burned down to the level of a young tree, so it will be easier now.”

Narg said with a chuckle. In fact, the rabbit is not wrong, it is virtually impossible to occupy the entire great forest, but the elves of the great forest must protect the world tree of the central city of Deneb, whose location has already been revealed.

The attackers have the simple objective of simply rushing in a straight line and occupying the large forest without being attacked by guerrillas.

“But recently, the elves who call themselves a new clan are deeply involved in the Great Forest and are establishing their majors. Clearly, their power, which would be maximized within the forest, cannot be ignored.”

“I prepared for that as well.”

He warned them about the power of Eden’s elves, who roamed freely on heavily armored sprite ants, but Narg, still laughing, led them outside.

Where they were headed, countless numbers of troops staying in camps outside the castle were lighting up and spending the night.

The scale was in the thousands. It was several times more than the largest army ever mobilized by Eden’s elves.

“I have already heard about the monster ants they ride. It is as fast as a horse, and many times stronger. But won’t even the basilisk, the beast that we tamed from the Pandemonium, be pushed back?”

“Those monsters heard rumors…”

Narg, who came with this great force, showed the secret weapon he had prepared. Giant lizards that have recently been tamed instead of horses. Its six legs allow it to move freely over rough terrain that horses cannot walk on.

“There is no need to rush. The elves can’t resist if we all together slowly push through the forest itself. It didn’t matter, since I needed to pave the way anyway, right?”

Narg pointed to Commander Rubens and spoke confidently. He was asking if the elves could stop the elves even if the army of 10,000 units, including the kingdom’s army and his own, slowly pushed in.

Bennet couldn’t deny that. Eden’s elves were a factor, but their numbers reported so far were very small.

“Tell the king. Just make sure to give the promised reward.”

“…The king will not make the high lord of our kingdom feel sad.”

At last he nodded. Narg, a rabbit beast, is a sort of ally of the kingdom after the Great War. I took the risk and accepted it because I knew I needed strength.

So it was beneficial to use it when it was in use.

“I was embarrassed because the environment itself was different, but I still like it.”

“Will it take long for the kingdom to flourish?”

“I don’t think so.”

This is a nearby forest with a passage leading to Eden. A few elves, including Urea, were watching the preliminary queen ants that had taken off their wings and were digging into the ground.

Unlike other people, they crossed the portal and came to the Great Forest. From now on, they will adapt to this place and create their own kingdom.

The Elves, whose prosperity is also their own benefit, had to protect the habitat from possible threats until they settled down.

“However, if a kingdom of fairy ants is successfully established, the number will increase rapidly.”

Yurea smiled faintly as she anticipated the future. The Great Grove is huge. Land that can harbor more than tens of thousands of fairy ants.

All the fairy ants that have grown up will become reliable allies to protect the Great Forest.

“Come to think of it, what happened to that giant caterpillar? At that time, he said that he would become an adult sooner or later.”

“It’s just before I become an adult. Come this way.”

At that time, Leon, who was about to return to Deneb, saw Lyn by Urea’s side and brought up her story about her slug. On the way to Eden, Leon, who was impressed by the giant slug he encountered by chance, did not forget it.

Laughing meaningfully, Lin said that the slugs were going through a very important process, and she led them away.

“Oh…”

“I can’t believe it.”

They arrived at an empty lot in the forest. Surprisingly, there was something half-exposed embedded in the ground.

No matter how huge it is, the elves knew that it was the chrysalis of some creature.

A gigantic scarab with six legs gathered on its chest and a hard carapace wrapped around its body.

A huge horn sprouted from its head, overwhelming everything around it. It was the moment when the identity of the slug, which no one knew what it would become, was revealed.

“This guy, I can feel mana in his arms. It’s a power I didn’t feel when I was a caterpillar. What did you do to this guy?”

“Bye, you didn’t do much! I just gave you something special…”

However, Urea recognized the strange power within this gigantic chrysalis. As she got closer and touched and observed with her hand, she noticed that the power was mana, and Urea glared at Rin.

Rin, who was frightened after standing there triumphantly, hurriedly shook her head when she heard the accusation.

“Some of the remains of the World Tree burned in Deneb were saved and fed? Are you insane?”

“Ha, but the elder allowed it. Since the World Tree wants his body to return to the forest in any form, it is the right use.”

Lynn, who eventually confessed to her actions, insisted that she was justified in her actions. When the entire world tree burned down, it did not disappear entirely as it was reduced to mana.

A considerable amount of burned remains remained, and the elves were unable to deal with it, which contained some of the power of the World Tree, and kept it.

But since it has to be returned to nature, the former high elf and temporary chief allowed it to be given to the slug. He judged that it was the same whether he burned it or buried it in the ground.

Unsurprisingly, the slugs gobbled up all of this special treat.

“I understand the intention, but thanks to this, I can’t guarantee what kind of change this guy’s body will have. That’s what I’m most worried about.”

“Not a bad change. It is the power of the world tree. As long as this giant beetle, grown by his own heritage, makes it home and lives in peace, that is enough.”

At Urea’s sighing words, Leon still couldn’t take his eyes off the chrysalis and laughed.

“Peace? It seems to me that Leon wants to use this guy as a weapon.”

“It could be. It will be reassuring if we fight together to protect that peace in a crisis situation.”

Yurea laughed at his words, but he didn’t bother denying her words.

Because the possibility is always open. And in fact, the threat that could come at any time was heading towards the great forest a little faster.

“The humans in the west are moving troops? Are you trying to attack us? Is it really?”

“I’m not sure. First of all, this is the information the guards found out after catching the humans who were trying to cut down trees on the western border.”

Bin informed Leon, who had just arrived in Deneb, about a news that had just arrived. It was news about the enemies moving in earnest.
