Chapter 53 Undercurrent I
Lina's desperate efforts can be said to have harvested the blood crystal in the end. The blood crystal that condenses all the essence of the Children of the Forest, I don't know what I will get after absorbing it, and the most likely thing is that it will awaken or have a powerful ability, which can be said to be priceless, and it is not under the top sacrifice at all. However, once the Children of the Forest were allowed to escape, with his terrifying speed and concealment ability, it was impossible to find him under the suppression of the will of the forest, even if he had turned into a corpse.
If the greatest gain of this battle is the friendship between Neris, Agamemnon and Richard. On the verge of life and death, when facing a real enemy, they help each other and rescue each other, and do not hesitate to use their own flesh and blood to block the enemy's spear, or lay the foundation for their companions to finally kill the enemy. At that moment, the decision did not allow any room for entanglement of interests, and only instinct was to react.
Richard, Neres, and Agamemnon, with their own appearances and personalities, all have a volcano hidden in their hearts. Although these young people have begun to possess great power, they have not yet been consumed by too much reality.
As for the post-war period, they didn't need to say much to each other, occasionally drinking wine and tea together, and most of the time they were busy with their own affairs, and they had less time to get together.
In the afternoon, the three of them got together again, but it was a routine discussion about the next step of the battle.
The elven tribes around the base city must have suffered a heavy blow, and a tree of life has been moved, and it will not be able to give any help to the elves attached to it for at least a dozen years. The elves killed in battle were almost all the warriors of the two tribes, and the number of druids killed in battle was close to or more than that of all of the tribes, and the most tragic was the fall of the sons of the forest.
Richard had already learned from the elves who had belonged to him that the so-called children of the forest were in fact the patrons of the supreme world tree in the sea of green forests. He was the most outstanding genius among the elves, and he was also a gifted person who was naturally able to communicate with the World Tree and use the power of the World Tree.
Each child of the forest has a unique ability, and where there is a forest, it is their home field. Individual sons of the forest can even communicate with a qiē plant, and all places with green have their eyes and ears.
The Green Forest Elves are attached to the Tree of Life, and when the Tree of Life develops to the extreme, it will grow into the World Tree. In every vast area, there will only be one World Tree. In this area, the World Tree is the equivalent of the Green Forest Elves, and the Children of the Forest are similar to the Divine Messenger or Divine Son.
In addition, each Child of the Forest carries one or more leaves of the World Tree with them. They will take the young leaves before the battle, thus gaining the power of the World Tree and activating some of their powerful abilities. For example, the Children of the Forest, who had severely damaged Richard's team with his own strength, his true strength was only between the eighteenth and nineteenth levels, but in the forest environment, the power of the World Tree was obviously stimulated, and it became so terrifying. Even the veteran Sanctuary powerhouse, Scheer, couldn't resist a little, and was instantly killed head-on by him.
After discussion, the three of them agreed that the elves would not dare to provoke again in a short period of time, and the third tree of life might also move to the depths of the forest sea. The next time I fight with the elves, I'm afraid I will need to face more sons of the forest, as well as similar powerhouses, so I must plan early.
Schumpeter did leave them a very good legacy, which was an invisible deterrent to the powerhouses of the Green Forest Plane. Elemental extraction and crystallization toxins obviously left a deep shadow on the natives, so when the forest was able to surround the city steadily, powerhouses of this rank such as the Ancient Tree of War and the Children of the Forest did not appear. It wasn't until Richard and they took possession of a tree of life that they caused a violent backlash from the natives of the plane. If not, Richard would have faced an even more difficult situation if these strong men had been engaged in the battle from the beginning. But it also gave the three of them a new understanding of the strength of the Schumpeter family.
And the blood crystal, which condensed the essence of the ability of the children of the forest, the result of the final discussion between the three of them was to simply take back Norland for auction. All three of them already have a strong bloodline inheritance and awakened abilities.
Especially Richard, even the existing bloodline must be selectively abandoned, and it is pointless to have another bloodline ability. And when Richard awakened his true name for a while, the power of the Akmund bloodline increased greatly, and it suppressed the silver moon elf bloodline to a certain extent. Once the new bloodline appears, it will definitely be suppressed by Akmund.
As for the followers of the three subordinates, they either already have a strong bloodline ability, or there are other ways to improve their ability faster, and using this blood crystal is also a waste, or the existing strength is not enough to absorb this blood crystal, and it will become very dangerous to forcibly absorb it.
But this thing is not of much use to the trio and their followers, but it does not mean that it is useless to others. On the contrary, for some potential heirs of wealthy families who have noble status, but have not inherited the bloodline, or have not been able to awaken the ability of the bloodline, this blood crystal is invaluable!
At this point in the discussion, there was nothing else to do, but none of the three people left, but sat silently, all of them seemed to have something on their minds, but none of them spoke.
In the end, Nereus couldn't help but ask, "How is Lina?"
Richard hesitated for a moment before saying, "The situation is still very bad. Her magic can actually be restored, but ...... It can take a long time to recover. ”
"Does she know her condition now?"
Richard shook his head and said, "I don't know yet, but I'm worried that she won't be able to stand it when she comes to her senses." Is there no other way?"
Nereus looked at Agamemnon, who pondered for a moment before saying, "There are only two ways I can think of, one is to sacrifice and see if I can get a similar divine grace. The other is promotion, and every level increase after entering the Sanctuary is a process of comprehensive transformation of the body to adapt to more powerful forces. In this process, the original structural defects of the body will be repaired, and the scar may be restored. In addition, perhaps the great priests of the Eternal Dragon Hall may have a way, but there is little hope. ”
Richard sighed, both of which would take a long time, and the sacrifice was even more ethereal. No one was sure if he could solve this problem, at least not in the long list that Richard had read. But the gods of eternity and time are so great that the Norlanders have developed a habit of instinctively pinning their last hope on sacrifice when there is a problem that cannot be solved.
"What about you, Richard. When will you be able to recover your lost mana this time?" asked Neres.
Richard carefully sensed his state and said, "It's okay, the loss is not too big, and it will be able to recover to level fourteen in about a month." ”
Nereus nodded, apparently relieved, then remembered something and said, "That's right, Richard." Regarding Lina, I suggest that you can ask Luoqi, she may have some solution. ”
"Can she cure Lina?" Lee perceives incredulity.
"It's not a treatment, it's a comfort! A woman's mind is very special, we may not be able to guess it, so ask Luoqi, who is also a woman, maybe there will be some good way. ”
Richard nodded in agreement, and the regular meeting between the three of them ended here.
Richard first went to the Dragon Mage's residence. Under the influence of medicine and divine magic, the dragon mage is still in a coma, slowly pulling out the power of dragon flame in his body. When Richard arrived, a priest was coming out of the room, his face slightly tired.
"How's she doing?" asked Richard.
The priest said respectfully, "Today's magic has been cast for Lord Lina. Her condition is very stable, Long Yan has been weakened a lot, and in a week at the latest, Lord Lina will be able to wake up, and the magic of the Lord will soon be restored. ”
Richard nodded and walked into the dragon mage's room. The dragon mage was lying quietly on the bed and falling asleep, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he didn't know what happy things he dreamed of. Above her lips, she was covered with a soft scarf. Richard lifted the scarf slightly, revealing only half of his beautiful and charming face, and the other half of his face was covered by large scars. This is the scar left by Long Yan, and even divine magic can not completely repair the vitality of the damaged body. Looking at the large scar, Richard could only sigh wordlessly.
He knew that the dragon mage was strong on the outside, but he was actually weak on the inside. Beautiful appearance and strong strength are the two pillars that support her, once she knows what she looks like now, she doesn't know what kind of blow she will suffer.
Richard lifted Lina's quilt again, gently pulled down the clothes on her chest, and put his hand on the dragon pattern, carefully feeling the structure inside the structure. After a moment, Richard breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the structure had only a minor damage that would not affect normal use, and that he was capable of repairing the damaged parts.
This construct is close to a fourth-order build, and its main purpose is to strengthen the connection between Lina and the red dragon Carlo, and to create a spatial portal when summoned, so that the red dragon Carlo can enter the battlefield through the guò portal. It can be said that it is the key to most of the strength of the dragon mage.
Richard instructed the maid to take good care of Lina, and returned to his magical room. As soon as he entered, Richard saw a sight that gave him a headache.
Luoqi crouched in front of the real stage, concentrating on drawing the parts of the assembly. To her left was a stack of already drawn composition intermediates, and to her right was a neatly arranged array of magic paints and composition base paper. At this moment, Luoqi was holding Richard's artifact magic pen in her hand, and the movements of her slender five fingers stretched and steady, and thick or thin magic lines flowed out of the tip of the pen like water. This artifact magic pen can adjust the thickness and thickness of the lines according to the user's will, and at the same time increase the stability of the user's technique.
Luo Qi already has a pair of steady hands, and her heart is even stronger, she can work on boring and single work for several days, and her concentration will not be reduced in the slightest. When she was drawing the build, the workbench in front of her was her whole world.
