Farming Tree Spirit

[Cultivation successful, experience +1]

[Professional level upgrade, lv4→lv5]

The long-lost reminder appeared in front of Rhodes.

After two busy days, he finally upgraded again and crossed the level 5 mark.

"It's a little faster than I expected."

Rhodes, who was casting cultivation magic on crops, looked happy, secretly thinking that the upgrade method of the gardener profession was really suitable for him.

Although there was no way to gain experience in battle, it could be gained by cultivating and planting plants, saving a lot of trouble and risks.

Even if he had been busy with other things these two days and occasionally came to irrigate, he still upgraded smoothly.

All of a sudden.

Mental strength increased.

The total amount of magic power and recovery speed were further strengthened.

He felt that he could now cast cultivation magic for five minutes continuously, which was enough to support them to go out and explore farther.

[Magic Tree Spirit lv5]

[Profession: Gardener]

[Experience: 0/50]

[Ordinary magic: Vine whip]

[Professional magic: Cultivation]

After taking a look at his personal information, Rhodes began to prepare.

First, he picked some black fruits from the small trees, wrapped them with leaves and stuffed them into the cracks of the bark on his body, and then cut a dragon blood vine in case he found wood but had nothing to tie himself up with.

Knowing that he was going out.

After a night's rest, the little thing, which had recovered as before, was very excited and ran over from a distance, completely without the fear of the black soil at the beginning.

Obviously.

It was bored of staying in the altar every day.

But it didn't dare to run out by itself, so it could only wait for Rhodes to take it out.

What Rhodes didn't expect was.

Before leaving, the little thing suddenly turned around and ran to the statue of the Tree of Life.

"Ya."

It was seen saying something to the tree god mark, gesturing twice with its little fist, and pointing outside the altar.

The next second.

The tree god mark lit up.

A stream of light swooped into the little thing's body, forming a circle of faint leaf shadows around it, which looked like some kind of magic blessing.

Rhodes was shocked.

Is this possible?

He didn't know that the Tree God Mark had such a function, and thought it was just a mark containing the breath of the Tree of Life.

Because the little thing is a tree spirit.

So it is under the control of the Tree of Life?

After a moment of daze, Rhode suddenly reacted.

No.

I am also a tree spirit!

Even if it is a little darker and not a branch of the combat tree spirit, it should be related to the Tree of Life, right?

Thinking of this.

He immediately came to the statue with a look of expectation.

"Quick, give me some god-level protection, invincible defense, etc."

"..."

The Tree God Mark was quiet in an instant.

Although I am not a human.

But you are a real dog.

But even so, after the silence, the Tree God Mark still lit up again, and a stream of light with a long tail sank into Rhode's body.

[Get the Tree God Protection (small): When attacked, reduce 10% of the damage, lasting 30 minutes. ]

Oh!

Tree God Protection!

Seeing the shadows of the leaves around him, Rhode was happy.

I didn't expect that the tree god mark I accidentally obtained before would have such an effect.

With this protection, his exploration process became much safer, which was a pleasant surprise.

"Let's go, let's go to a farther place this time!"

Rhodes was in high spirits and finally set off with the little thing.

As before, in order to reduce unnecessary consumption, he let the little thing stay in the branches on his head to be responsible for guarding the surroundings.

Soon.

Two tree spirits, one big and one small, stepped into the black soil.

The originally silent black soil, like a cat smelling fish, suddenly became agitated, turning into a large black tentacles surrounding them, trying to drag them into the endless abyss.

Even though it was not the first time to see it.

Rhodes and the little thing were still shocked by the scene.

Dare not stay.

Immediately speed up the pace to shake off the tentacles and go straight to the area that has not been explored before.

This time.

Their luck is obviously much better.

After running for about five minutes, he did not encounter any attacks from the black beasts. He soon left the altar behind and came to a forest with black tree trunks everywhere.

It can be seen.

This place used to be a lush forest.

The remains of the tree trunks on the outermost edge were as thick as three or four people hugging together. They all stood there bare and extended for who knows how far.

Indistinctly.

You can also see something like a black ghost shuttling through the forest, and a sharp scream came from time to time.

If there were a few more crows and hanging spiders, Rhodes would immediately think of the legendary Witch Forest.

Because it really looks like it!

"Ah."

At this time, the little thing's voice sounded.

I saw that its whole body shrunk behind the branches, and it stuck its head out, looking at the dark forest with fear on its face.

"Why, weren't you very brave just now?"

"Are you afraid now?"

Rhodes laughed softly and gradually became serious.

After all, this was an area that had never been explored, and no one knew what kind of monsters had lived there before. If a blackened dragon appeared, the two little tree elves might not be enough to be used as toothpicks.

But what surprised Rhode was that

Although these trees have been eroded, they still retain most of their trunks and are not completely decayed.

As long as you take it back and water it with magic power, you should be able to remove the contamination on it and use it as ordinary wood.

Not only can it be used for fences and fortifications, but it can also be used to make tools and houses.

It is simply a natural lumber factory!

"Hurry up and mark it down."

"This will be our territory from now on."

After walking around the outskirts of the Black Forest and writing down the specific location, Rhodes came to the nearest tree wreckage and prepared to move the wood.

The little thing jumped from his head to the branch. His little hands touched the trunk that had been dead for a long time, and he almost shed tears when he saw it.

Of course Rhodes knew that it was mourning for its kind, so he comforted them: "Don't worry, their souls have rested in peace, and we will protect the Dreamland."

As if she understands his words.

The little thing didn't feel sad anymore. He drew out his short spear weapon and started to help break down the tree trunk.

This is a gift left by its companions. It cannot be allowed to dissipate in the black earth, and it is the only thing it can do now.

After the addition of small things.

Wood is collected significantly faster.

After a while, Rhodes collected a bundle of branches used as a fence, put it aside, and walked towards another tree trunk.

"Gah!!"

Suddenly, a scream sounded.

As soon as Rhodes' expression changed, he felt a black afterimage coming through the sky so fast that even a little guy with a fighting profession didn't have time to react.

Bang!

Rhodes was hit hard on the chest and his whole body flew backwards.

The little thing shouted anxiously, drew out his short spear and rushed over.

Until then.

Only then did Rhodes see what was attacking him clearly through the corner of his eye.

A black rotten bone crow.

[Corrupted Druid (Raven Form) lv6]

Dry!

I'm such a crow's mouth.

It didn't take long before the crows came.

And it's still a level 6 black beast that's one level higher than him.

What's even worse is that the predecessor of this black beast seems to be a druid who has mastered the transformation form!
