Farming Tree Spirit

"Bang!"

A muffled sound echoed in the forest.

After nearly an hour of fighting, Rhodes finally eliminated all the chasing black beasts and fell to the ground.

"call--"

"Finally done."

There were so many of these gadgets that if he hadn't had a shield to resist them, he would have been smashed into pieces long ago.

Look to the side.

The giant vines and thorn guards that came to life have now returned to their original appearance.

If it weren't for the pools of black blood still remaining on it, it wouldn't look like it had just experienced a battle.

"Let's go, keep going."

After taking out a few black fruits for little Kaba and himself to restore his magic power, Rhodes sat on Kaba's back again and headed deep into the forest.

He came out this time not just for a casual look, but to find out what was going on in the Mountain Giant Forest.

And after reaching the second level, his resistance to black soil has been significantly strengthened. Counting the supplies he brought out, he can stay outside for a whole day without any problem.

So soon, they left the clearing, bypassed the tribe of villains, and continued deeper into the forest.

But just after running a certain distance, Kaba seemed to sense something, suddenly braked hard, quickly changed direction and ran to the other side.

"What's wrong?" Rhodes asked confused.

But as soon as he finished speaking, a loud bang exploded not far away.

A seemingly ordinary rocky hillside suddenly rose slowly, causing the entire ground to shake.

After a while, a rock giant more than thirty meters high came into view, staring at them with scarlet eyes.

[Mountain Giant lv32]

Dry!

Can this happen?

Rhode's face turned green when he saw the pop-up message.

They were really afraid of what would come. They had tried their best not to run into the mountain giant, but they didn't expect that this old Yinbi would hide himself.

Are you a trigger-happy Mimic? !

"Run! I'll stop it!"

A third-level black beast, and it is such a powerful monster, it is still difficult to deal with it with his current strength.

After shouting, Kabbah sped up and ran away.

The magic light on Rhodes' staff exploded, and with a roar, two cultivated and enhanced versions of the Thorn Guards were summoned in succession, one on the left and one on the right wrapped around the mountain giant's body.

The mountain giant let out a deafening roar, pulled hard, and directly tore one of the guards off, and then immediately grabbed the other guard.

But at this moment.

Several stones painted with magic patterns flew from a distance and landed at its feet.

"boom!!"

Blazing white light, accompanied by violent explosions, instantly swept through the entire forest.

The originally silent forest suddenly became agitated like boiling water, with countless black afterimages gathering rapidly from all directions.

"Get away now!"

Rhodes didn't dare to stay. He took advantage of all the small human black beasts around him to be attracted by the explosion and immediately sped away.

After getting rid of a few sporadic little humans encountered on the road, they fled deeper into the area.

And this time he learned to be smart. Whenever he encountered something like a pile of rocks or a mushroom house on a hillside, he would go around and change direction.

Don't say it.

After using this method.

Apart from occasionally encountering a few small human black beasts and accidentally catching a glimpse of a sleeping fourth-level mountain giant along the way, we didn't encounter too many dangers.

Obviously.

The black beasts here not only contain extremely high intelligence, but also retain their instincts in life. They are either sleeping or nesting in the community.

As long as you are careful enough, you won't cause too much trouble, and Rhodes will understand.

After running like this for an unknown amount of time, avoiding several mountain giants and small human groups, the surrounding giant vines began to become sparse.

"What's going on? Are you outside so soon?" Rhodes looked around in confusion.

After careful planning, they only advanced for two or three hours.

Even if Kabbah's speed became faster after he advanced, it shouldn't be possible to go outside through the forest so quickly.

Or is it that the Giant Forest is relatively small?

"Eaaah!"

Suddenly, a cry from the little thing came.

Rhodes subconsciously raised his head and was instantly stunned by the scene in front of him.

I didn't know how far away from them, I saw a giant vine that was so big that it was unimaginable, towering over the land.

Black and purple vines intertwined with each other and stretched upward from the ground to high in the sky. They were shrouded in dark clouds and it was impossible to see where the end was.

The already ridiculously large vines around it were even worse than a toothpick in front of it!

"What is this, the ladder to the kingdom of giants?"

Rhodes was surprised. Just a leaf on the vine seemed to be blocking out the sky and the sun.

Mountain giants here can only call themselves small humans.

"Let's go over and have a look!"

Such an unusual sight, you don't need to think about it to know that it must contain some secret or some treasure.

And it seems that they did not go outside, but came to the heart of the Giant Forest by chance.

He was still willing to stop and hurried towards the direction of the sky-reaching vines.

The surrounding vines gradually became sparse as they advanced, looking as if their nutrients had been drained away by the big guy.

"It's weird, why isn't there a black beast?"

While running, Rhodes looked around and found that there was no mountain giant or small human.

Logically speaking, this is the central area. Shouldn't there be a large number of fourth-, fifth-, or even sixth-order terrifying monsters gathered here?

But now let alone a monster, it didn't even have a hair on it, which made him wonder.

But right away.

Rhodes discovered that he was wrong.

As they moved forward, a dark figure under the sky-reaching vines suddenly came into view.

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Rhodes' expression changed drastically, and he immediately stopped Kabbah and hid behind a nearby plant.

Black beast.

Densely packed black beasts!

In addition to the mountain giants and small humans, there were also animals, birds and beasts of all sizes. They all gathered under the sky-reaching vines and worshiped devoutly towards the vines.

There are even several terrifying figures with level six aura among them!

This strange scene was so frightening that the leaves on his head stood upside down, and he didn't dare to let out any anger.

fortunately.

The monsters seemed to be focused on worshiping and did not notice their appearance.

"What are they doing?"

Rhodes revealed half of his head from behind the vines and observed secretly.

"Eh?"

"roar?"

Little Kaba looked at him and then looked into the distance, obviously not quite understanding either.

but.

The black beasts quickly gave them the answer.

A soft light suddenly lit up on a certain leaf of the sky-reaching vine, turning into a life energy and blending into a pile of rocks below.

Rumble——

After a loud noise.

The pile of rocks came to life again, turning into a new mountain giant, wandering towards the outside.

I see.

After the death of those mountain giants, the stones transformed from the corpses will be carried here by the little humans and other small animals and resurrected, forming a cycle!

After seeing this scene in the distance, Rhodes finally realized.

I finally understand why after so many years, there are still so many mountain giants in the forest.

In other words, as long as this sky-reaching vine remains, there will be an endless supply of black beasts in the Giant Forest.

If you want to eliminate the black beasts here, you have to start from this aspect.

It is definitely a very important piece of information for Rhodes, and this trip was indeed not in vain.

only.

It's not that difficult to get close to the sky-reaching vines in front of so many terrifying black beasts, and you have to go back and make long-term plans first.

And he had to figure it out.

This vine is so tall. Where does it lead to, or what is on it, and it can attract so many black beasts.

Could it be that the Moon God left some treasure?

"Eaaah!"

Suddenly, the little thing's voice sounded.

Rhodes, who was thinking, looked in its direction and saw a black afterimage appearing on the opposite side, rushing to the sky-reaching vines at an extremely fast speed.

After this change, the black beast suddenly became restless, roaring and chasing after him.

But the black shadow seemed to be familiar with the road. With a few moves, it was able to shake off the pursuit of the black beast and climb quickly towards the top of the sky-reaching vines. In the blink of an eye, it climbed to an altitude of several hundred meters.

"Alive!"

Rhodes and Little Thing looked at each other with shock in their eyes.

Only living creatures will be attacked by black beasts, which means that the black shadow is a conscious living creature just like them!

And it seems to be from a small human race!

What does that guy want to do?

Climb to the top of the vine?

Rhodes' attention was immediately attracted by the little human race.

Looking up, I watched the figure keep climbing upwards, from hundreds of meters to thousands of meters, almost reaching the clouds.

If it weren't for his excellent eyesight after he advanced, he wouldn't even be able to see clearly.

But what Rhode didn't expect was that just when he was about to reach the clouds, the guy seemed to have insufficient stamina and his speed slowed down a lot.

In the end, he slipped and fell from a high altitude. Little Thing and Kabbah were so frightened that they let out a low cry, and Rhodes' heart rose to his throat.

Immediately afterwards.

A scene that surprised them happened.

The little human turned over in the air, took out something like a paraglider, and used its strength to fly outside.

With that skilled look, it was obvious that this was not the first time he had done this.

However, it still attracted a large number of flying black beasts to pursue him and launched a fierce attack on him. It seemed that everything was in danger.

Whoosh!

At this time, a sound broke through the air.

An afterimage swept up into the sky at a faster speed, caught the little human race, and then quickly escaped from the center.

Not someone else.

It was Kabba who was commanded by Rhodes.

"Quick, get out of here first and find a safe place to land!"

In this forest, Rhodes did not dare to let Kabba fly for too long.

Fortunately, those who were chasing him were low-level black beasts. After throwing them away, he immediately turned around and landed in a dense forest several kilometers away, hiding.

Until then.

The little human finally came back to his senses and looked at Kabbah under him in surprise.

"Thank you for saving me. Is this the latest model of paraglider?"

Paragliding?

What the hell?

Rhodes and Little Thing were stunned and couldn't help but look at Kabbah.

Doesn't this guy even know what a dragon is?

"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself."

This young-looking little human introduced himself in a familiar manner: "I am a Tata who lives outside the forest. You can call me Manta. Are you here to climb the Sky Tree as well?"

"Sky Tree?"

"Yes, as long as you climb to the top of the Sky Tree, you can reach the Sky Country where any wish can be fulfilled. That's what the legend says. Don't you know?"

"..."

After hearing this, Rhodes looked at the huge monster towering between heaven and earth in the distance. Are you sure there is such a thing on it?

And this little human is too stubborn. He didn't even ask about their origins, and just chatted with them as "climbing friends".

It can be seen.

In addition to this Manta, there should be many people who try to climb the Sky Tree.

So much so that it is preconceived that anyone who appears here is here to climb the vines and enter the Sky Country.

"Have any of you fulfilled your wish?" Rhodes asked.

"No." Manta put his hands on his waist as a matter of course.

Good guy.

It turns out that it's just a legend!

Rhodes was amused by his words. What kind of tribes live outside this forest?

What a pity.

Without giving him a chance to ask more questions, Manta suddenly said: "Okay, I should go back. This climb failed. I have to go back to improve the paraglider. We will meet again if we are lucky."

After that.

He waved goodbye to them and suddenly jumped onto the vines around.

With the help of these plants to avoid the erosion of the black soil, he turned into a shadow and quickly swept to the other end of the forest, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

"Leaving now?"

Rhodes was stunned. He still had a lot of things to ask. Why did he leave just like that?

It seems that he has to find a chance to go out and take a look.

If he guessed correctly, there should be a tribe of dwarfs surviving outside the Giant Forest, just like the black beasts in the forest.

As for whether there are other races, he doesn't know.

"Let's go, we will go back too."

He encountered too many bizarre encounters along the way, and he didn't want to continue exploring.

He glanced at the direction where Manta disappeared, and turned back to the direction of the altar.
