Chapter 490: The Heart of Tree Herders

Chapter 490: The Heart of Tree Herders

After countless years of wind erosion, traces of artificial construction that are difficult to distinguish can still be seen in the forest occasionally.

The towering ancient trees spread out the canopy, and the original symmetrical gaps between the trees have disappeared. Not only the branches, but also the thick roots of the trees are closely connected, forming uneven cliff-like plant walls in the forest.

The courtyard, the broken world, everything in the past may be difficult to distinguish, but there are always some plants that have witnessed the time and survived tenaciously.

Wandering in the Goblin Kingdom, intending to capture goblins, Mu Hua took the giant trees and plants as the direction, but found a place that looked like a relic of civilization.

Well, I guess there won’t be any adventures. Not only humans do archaeology, but some demons actually like to dig graves.

Possessing wisdom that exceeds that of humans, the desire for strength and growth is even higher than that of humans. Obtaining world fragments and occupying courtyards, any valuable relics of civilization may have been plundered countless times by demons of all sizes.

If you want the relics of other civilizations, it is more practical to hunt demons directly and find them directly from the monsters instead of searching for ruins.

Of course, for the demons who have gathered countless civilizations, some things of other civilizations, since the civilization itself is gone, if they really fall out, you may only regard them as the products of demon civilization.

The flames that protect the body form a protection around Mu Hua, the flame shield, or the flame windbreaker. Originally, Mu Hua did not like this magic because it basically had no physical defense effect.

The defense of the flame shield is more about burning foreign objects before attacking the body, but if the temperature of the flame is not enough, it will naturally lack some instant incineration effects.

So it is also called the flame windbreaker. For fire magic, this magic is more inclined to be put on when fighting with the enemy in close combat. The degree of practice affects its range of influence, and close contact can burn the opponent.

And now, when Mu Hua casts this magic, it really feels like a defensive magic.

Arrows and rocks were shot out from the towering branches of the ancient trees from time to time, and these should be foreign objects shot by the goblins hiding here, but these attacks have not yet touched Mu Hua, and they were either burned without a trace or turned into magma and molten iron, dripping down beside Mu Hua.

The extreme "high temperature" increased the temperature of Mu Hua's flame, but the spread of the scorching flame was difficult to control. The magic flame with a temperature of more than 6,000 degrees could cause a large-scale fire in minutes.

However, although Mu Hua's flame windbreaker training was average, his magic power enhancement was already full, and the magic enhancement indirectly affected the caster's control over the forming magic.

Mu Hua's control over the flame has also surpassed the norm. If he deliberately controls it, he can make the flame condense without dispersing, and can also limit the spread of burning and high temperature.

Especially for magic such as the flame shield, Mu Hua can not only make the flame shield not affect the surroundings, but also the flame shield, which has a condensation effect, will burn more strongly than the scattered flame if it touches its range of action.

This is a magic that is useless for beginners, but very practical and powerful after satisfying the connection.

Walking in the overgrown forest, the grass and trees within a range of about 20 centimeters around Mu Hua disappeared out of thin air. The surrounding temperature was normal, but where Mu Hua walked, a path without any vitality appeared.

Flame, when the temperature of the flame is high enough, their annihilation characteristics are really stronger than the breath of death.

"Puff~Puff~Puff~!" Several sharp arrows pierced Mu Hua's body, and one of the arrows aimed at his forehead was slapped away by him.

There are attacks that can be burned by the flame shield, and naturally there are weapons that can break through the flame shield. The materials used to make these arrows are better, and some arrows are coated with blood. It seems that a stronger goblin is eyeing him.

The dense trees covering the sky form a natural protection. Unlike those goblins who build cities and villages, the goblins in this area regard the ancient trees as their nests.

The trees that formed barriers could no longer be described simply by their thickness. The treetops of these ancient trees could even allow goblins to live like on the ground, and they mostly hid in dense branches and leaves. It was difficult to find their traces when looking up from under the trees.

"Bang~Bang~Bang~~" More arrows and gravel rained down, and Mu Hua took out the tower shield, raised it above his head, and blocked the attack from above.

A summoned dragon tooth soldier plucked the arrows from Mu Hua's body. At this time, Mu Hua was a monster in the eyes of these goblins, and Mu Hua did not fight back and escape. This guy was simply unkillable.

Super-speed regeneration is very strong, but Mu Hua tried not to get hit if he could. This was not simply because of pain, but because even the super-speed regeneration that was integrated with the soul tide was not perfect.

The fatal injuries to most creatures may only cause some pain to Mu Hua, but Mu Hua has also discovered that those more serious injuries seem to shorten his lifespan when he recovers.

Starting from the regeneration stage, ignoring those attacks such as broken hands and feet, piercing the heart and headshot, he will still become a short-lived ghost.

In fact, Mu Hua is also puzzled. Even if he is shot through the forehead by an arrow, it will only hurt a little, but after kryptoning a lot of Hundred Refining Secret Stones in a short period of time, the reaction of the body is still unbearable.

Perhaps this is also a kind of self-protection mechanism of the body. If it is like super-speed regeneration, it will quietly reduce the lifespan, and it is possible that it will die after kryptoning.

The goblins here are very troublesome to catch, but this is not a very good nest, and there are no very strong goblins.

After all, these ancient trees are rough, but they are still ordinary trees. A fire can set them on fire.

Mu Hua can indeed burn the forest here in minutes, but he came here to find these ancient trees. As a "plant lover" who has mastered the Heart of Tree Herding, these ancient trees are treasures in his eyes.

"Flame Demon! Get out of here! We are a tribe loyal to the Goblin King. If you cause a fire here, you will be punished by the commander!"

The rough shouts echoed among the trees. The shouter cast an amplification magic on himself, and it was difficult to tell the direction of the sound.

Mu Hua, who was holding a shield, blinked. He was wearing a cloak and shielding his own breath. It seemed that the monsters here regarded him as a fire demon.

Ignoring the monster's shouts, the Heart of Tree Herding spread out strange fluctuations. Mu Hua's palm touched an ancient tree. As his mind flowed, the ancient tree that had originally nurtured vicissitudes of life changed.

The green branches fell, the green leaves turned yellow, decayed, withered, and decayed until they turned into ash. The ancient tree disappeared, and the ground sank. Whether it was branches or trunks, including the roots of the ancient tree, they turned into dust and disappeared with the breeze in the forest.

And where the ancient tree was originally located, on Mu Hua's palm that touched the ancient tree, a ball of emerald green juice exuded the rhythm of life, and the branches and leaves of the surrounding trees rustled, as if expressing their desire for the juice.

Plant essence! Foreign substances that can only be extracted from plants that have grown for enough years.

Just like the treasures catalyzed by the law of time, it can help plants restore their vitality, catalyze the growth of plants, and even change the characteristics of plants.

Although it is impossible to extract some essence from a thousand-year-old tree to catalyze another plant for a thousand years, it is always a resource that helps plants grow.

And if a plant absorbs enough plant essence, it can even give that plant animal characteristics.

To put it simply, this thing can create tree shepherds, tree shepherds with simple thinking, who can pull out their roots and run around.

Of course, it may be different from the imagined ancient war trees. The plants that have turned into tree shepherds are mainly easier to feed. In addition to the nutrients in the earth, they can also absorb magic from the air.

But they move slowly, and unless they are some special plants, they are also very fragile and very afraid of fire. If they are released to fight with people, they will basically die. In a one-on-one fight, the residents carrying a bucket of diesel may set them on fire. . .

And those who obtain the essence of life usually use the essence of life on some plants that produce treasures, such as coiled snakes. Ahem, no, come again, such as golden apple trees, ambergris bushes and the like.

Tree shepherds are basically not combat-type existences. Maybe the plants like the world tree are quite resistant, but it still cannot change its weaknesses of slow movement and clumsy movements.

Mu Hua got this kind of plant essence, and for the time being, he should use it to cultivate golden apple trees. It is estimated that he will not think about any ancient war trees for the time being.

As the ancient tree disappeared, some messy debris fell from the sky, thump thump~, a large number of goblins and dwarf orcs fell to the ground like dumplings from the sky, and even many monsters vomited three liters of blood on the spot.

A rough check showed that there was no giant monster, so Mu Hua made a "pine cone" and threw it to a place where there were many goblins.

Now Mu Hua's spirit is 900+, and his bone teeth are basically equivalent to high-level exorcism bullets. He can shoot through several goblins stacked together. The touch of jealousy strangled a bear goblin, and the goblins that could still climb up all ran away screaming.

There were not a few goblins that fell from this tree. If they knew that Mu Hua was a human, they would probably try to rush in.

But they thought Mu Hua was a fire demon. Although they didn't know how Mu Hua got rid of the tree, they saw that Mu Hua attacked them, and their first reaction was to run away.

The Touch of Jealousy caught a few non-projected goblins, knocked them unconscious and threw them aside. Although he had to continue to harm the ancient trees here, Mu Hua was still sending goblins to the Abyss Island.

The mage's hand touched another ancient tree again, and the previous scene was staged again in this ruins forest.

After the qualitative change of the Rhythm of Tree Shepherding, it became the Heart of Tree Shepherding. This ability can create an oasis in the vast desert.

But this ability is not kind at all.

Because, in addition to that oasis, the vast desert around it may also be created by this ability.

Although plant essence cannot be extracted from all plants, the Heart of Tree Shepherding is still an ability in the Gluttony Sequence.

It is hard to say what will happen to these goblins after finding such an ancient tree that can extract plant essence, but if Mu Hua cannot be driven away, it is estimated that this forest will inevitably be bald everywhere. In short, there are ancient trees with enough years here, so don't think about saving them.

The Yangtze River's waves push forward, uprooting all the old trees and planting some saplings, all of which serve as metabolism for the vast earth. . . (End of this chapter)
