Chapter 187: Tree City
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The location of the Bloody Battlefield was the famous Dark Forest in the Wizard World. To be exact, the reason why the Dark Forest was formed was because of the Bloody Battlefield…
Three months later, in the Dark Forest, in the Bloody Fortress, at the airship dock.
Rumble! The loud sound of the propeller was heard one after another, and large airships entered the airport one after another.
“Ya! Ya! The soldiers of Shadow Land have arrived!”
“Ya! Ya! The soldiers of Shadow Land have arrived!”
A hoarse hissing sound that sounded like a leaky pipe was heard. Two crows howled and flew into the sky.
The airships soon came to a stop.
Ka da! A sound was heard.
The cabin door opened. The bridge plank stretched out from the inside and connected to the dock. Then, the 2,000 to 3,000 soldiers who had been recruited walked out of the cabin door one after another.
Standing on the deck, Heath looked at the surrounding environment.
This was a very strange and magical city.
The theme structure of the city was trees.
Huge trees, which were hundreds, thousands, or even thousands of meters tall, stood everywhere. Holes were dug out from the trunks of the trees to build houses, streets, and other buildings. The trees were connected by white stone bridges.
A small boat made of large flowers and leaves floated in the air, carrying guests back and forth.
In the center of the city was an unusually huge tree. The trees blotted out the sky and the sun, and the umbrellas spread out from the branches and leaves covered most of the city.
This magnificent scenery immediately caught Heath’s sight, and he could not help but stop for a while.
“How is it? Is it very spectacular?” At this moment, a voice sounded.
At some point, a man in his forties stood beside him. He was wearing a cloak from the Tower of Order.
“When did this appear? Why don’t I feel anything at all…”
Heath was slightly shocked.
He nodded and said, “It’s rare to see a species like this in the Dark Forest.”
The man looked at the tree and agreed, “Yes, after all, this is the core of the Ancient Forest. Shadow Land is too remote.”
After a pause, he turned around and suddenly asked, “Do you know the name of this tree?”
Heath looked at the man with a strange look.
But he still carefully observed the tree and then answered, “Could it be… The Tree of Life?”
The Tree of Life was one of the oldest species in the Wizard World. It was said that this tree would bear a special fruit. When the fruit matured, it would give birth to some human-like sharp-eared beautiful creatures, namely Elves.
A smile appeared on the man’s face. “Cassandra’s letter to me said that you are very knowledgeable, and you are indeed unique.”
He raised a hand and patted Heath’s shoulder.
Heath subconsciously wanted to dodge, but for some reason, the man’s hand still accurately patted Heath’s shoulder. This scene could not help but shock him.
After all, he was now a Wizard and a Grand Knight. However, when he deliberately dodged, the other party still easily patted him.
The man said, “I’m looking forward to your performance on the Bloody Battlefield.”
After saying that, the man moved to the side.
One step…
Two steps…
Three steps…
It was like teleportation. Each step was further and further away. After three steps, he disappeared.
Heath was amazed.
“What are you daydreaming about, Heath? Go quickly,” Kane shouted at Heath.
Heath turned around. “Do you know who that man was?”
Kane asked in confusion, “Man? What man?”
Heath pointed to the other side and said, “The man who was standing next to me just now. He was wearing the cloak of the Tower of Order.”
Kane looked suspicious. “Are you kidding me? You’ve always been alone. Where did this man come from?”
Heath was stunned.
‘There’s always someone better…’
‘In this world…’
‘Wizards are nothing…’
“Let’s go.”
After leaving the dock, the Tower of Order arranged for Heath and the others to board the small boat that floated among the big trees. The small boat could hold about ten people.
They took the small boat and flew toward the ancient Tree of Life in the center of the city. Finally, they landed at the bottom of the ancient Tree of Life.
There was a huge tree hole with a diameter of more than a thousand meters.
The team stopped in front of the tree hole.
Heath sized up the tree hole in front of him. From this tree hole, he could clearly feel an abnormally surging spatial energy. Moreover, he could feel the strengthened seal on this spatial energy.
Obviously, this should be the entrance to the dimensional space.
Hua!
“Pointy… pointy ears, pointy ears!”
“So beautiful!”
“Is, is this the Elves?”
At this moment, there was an uproar from the crowd. Everyone’s attention was focused in one direction.
They saw a group of strange-looking people walking over.
They looked exactly like humans, but each of them had extremely exquisite looks. What was even more unique was that each of them had a pair of pointy and long ears.
There were about ten people in this group. Walking on the outside was a man wearing golden armor and holding a cross sword. Their armor was slightly different from human armor. It was slightly longer and had hollow patterns on it. It was as exquisite as a piece of handicraft.
Walking in the middle were more than ten people wearing robes. This was a kind of ancient white robe. The sleeves of the robe were embroidered with leaf-shaped patterns with golden and green silk threads.
Although it was just an ordinary walk, every one of them had a sense of elegance as they walked.
‘Are these the Elves?’
Heath, who had seen this strange creature for the first time, could not help but take a second look. They were one of the oldest species in the world, and it was even rumored that they were the masters of this world in the past.
The Elves came to the tree hole and spread out on both sides.
The Elves in robes raised their hands toward the tree hole, and a leaf-like pattern suddenly lit up in their palms, emitting an emerald green light.
It was said that many Elves were born with the ability to use magic, just like the talent of demonized beasts. There were even rumors that Wizards’ magic originated from Elves.
This faint green light shot towards the tree hole and lit up the tree hole.
At this moment, Heath could clearly feel that the spatial force field of the tree hole had changed. It was like a large door had been opened.
Then, the Elves spread out on both sides.
“We can go in!”
As the Wizard of the Tower of Order who was leading the way shouted, the team that stopped moved forward again and entered the tree hole.
The huge tree hole made Heath involuntarily ring out the bomb shelters and tunnels on Earth. Thousands of people walked into it without any restrictions.
Da da da da…
Drip drip…
The noise of footsteps and low voices echoed in the tree hole. From time to time, the sound of water dripping could be heard.
On the walls of the cave, there were clusters of green light, like pairs of eyes in the dark night.
When he walked past these areas, Heath could clearly feel these ‘eyes’ looking at him. Their eyes were filled with vigilance and vigilance, causing one to feel a little nervous.
He walked forward like this for over ten minutes before he arrived outside the cave.
Following that, the entire Bloody Battlefield finally opened up before Heath’s eyes…
The unprecedented spectacular picture….
