Chapter 1016
Levin Cloud and Mariposa returned to Neo Alfheim and brought the King Moss Kinkajou. They went straight to the location of the Tree of Life. They met Anastacia there and confirmed that they are there to deliver the new guardian of the Tree of Life.
The King Moss Kinkajou did not immediately understand the thing about the guardian as it is an infant beast. It does believe that it can eat anything it wants once it has become one. The King Moss Kinkajou saw the numerous fruits trees around the tree in the center and salivated. Even the other moss kinkajous are celebrating that they will no longer starve or fight for food.
The tree of life noticed that Levin Cloud has delivered it its guardian to be. The tree of life then used some of its life energy and created a form of a small child. This small child is transparent and glows in vibrant green light. The King Moss Kinkajou was not afraid of this small child and is even enamored. .𝒎
“Come, little one.” The transparent apparition created by the tree of life stated. To those who cannot understand the language of trees, they can only hear the whistle in the wind. The voice of the tree of life shocked Anastacia because this is the first time that she has heard it.
She is familiar with the form that the Tree of Life uses as it often pranks the other guild members. There was even a time that the guild members thought that Neo Alfheim is haunted by ghosts, but she then told everyone that they have undead guild members. If there were real ghosts, then they will be the first one to notice.
“You hear that as well.” Anastacia asked Levin Cloud.
“It is not my first time that a tree talks to me. I am basically close to a living tree. We Leshies might not be like the treants but we are close to actual tree spirits. Also, the Tree of Life and Death often talks to other people that it wants to communicate.
This Tree of Life must not be strong enough to communicate with those that it wants which would explain why only the two of us could understand it.” Levin Cloud stated as he saw the King Moss Kinkajou hug the transparent green apparition.
The apparition of the tree of life then placed its forehead on the forehead of the King Moss Kinkajou. It seems that the two were communicating with their minds and the King Moss Kinkajou opened its eyes with clear understanding. The small beast now knows what the Tree of Life is asking from it.
If one took a closer look, the King Moss Kinkajou is now more intelligent that before as if great wisdom is unlocked. The King Moss Kinkajou then communicated with its companions, and they also agreed. The moss kinkajous that were playful suddenly just sat down peacefully as if they are waiting for their king.
The Tree of Life then suddenly created something like a green egg that is embedded on the lower trunk. The King Moss Kinkajou is then placed on top of the green egg looking thing and is slowly absorbed inside of it. The small beast did not even try to resist as it got willingly absorbed inside.
Since the egg or capsule looking thing is a vibrant green color, they could not see what is happening inside of it. What made them know that the King Moss Kinkajou is inside of the green egg is the time when the egg released a pulsing glow. The silhouette of a curled-up King Moss Kinkajou is seen inside.
[You have given the Tree of Life a new candidate Guardian.]
[Protect it from the other monsters trying to steal its position.]
“What the heck?” Levin Cloud stated as he suddenly saw the two notifications and a loud roar of a monster is suddenly heard by everyone in the territory.
“Monster Wave Incoming!” One of the members of the Evergreen guild on lookout suddenly shouted.
“What is going on? I thought the last wave would come fie hours from now!” Cersei suddenly stated as she went to look for Anastacia.
“Change of plans. The Tree of Life is incubating its guardian. We must stop the other monsters trying to replace the guardian. All members to your posts!” Anastacia announced as she immediately touched the tree of life and a branch suddenly carried her off to the top.
When Anastacia planted and grew the Tree of Life successfully, she received a title of Friend of the Neo Alfheim Tree of Life. It gave her complete access with the tree of life and is able to synergize her skills with it. This means that any healing spells that she casts will be amplified in range by the Tree of Life.
All of her guild members in Neo Alfheim will basically have the effects of her healing and buffs. The only downside is that she cannot go away from the Tree of Life while utilizing the effects. But this title is basically the best one when it comes to siege defense as she will not fall as long as the tree of life stands tall.
The early monster wave is not the final wave as the countdown for the last monster wave is still commencing. The monsters in this wave consisted of all monsters that can move through the trees, land and the sky. What the Evergreen guild lacks is an aerial unit but what they do have are great archers that is being led by Alder.
Alder has changed from a normal Spirit Archer to an Elemental Sharpshooter. He can now utilize all the elements at his disposal as long as he has contracted the elementals. He even has a contract with a darkness elemental that he obtained from befriending a dark elf in Avalon when he came to visit.
The flying monsters did not stand a chance against the combined might of the archers in the Evergreen guild. What they do not like are elves and elves have been masters of the bow since the beginning of time.
The monsters that move inside the jungle are then dealt with the new squad that the Evergreen guild has. When the dark elves became unlocked, many of the wood elf players in the guild changed to a dark elf in order to maximize their talents in physicality. Dark elves are more physically able compared to the wood elves that mostly relied on magic.
The Evergreen guild also has a dark elf division that uses Death Magic. They would often send some of the priest players that wanted to learn Death Magic to Avalon. Some were even personally taught by the dark elf elders because of their great mastery of it.
The Evergreen of old is no longer the one that has weak stamina and variety but is now a fully pledged guild that is stronger than before. The synchronicity of the Life and Death magic in the battlefield is torture for any enemy that faces them. They can basically gun down their opponents before they even reach the actual territory.
The Evergreen guild also hired some mercenary players and set up a leaderboard for them. What some of the mercenary players wanted are official guild membership which is coveted by anyone. The Evergreen might have lagged a bit when Neo Alfheim first fell but they are rising stronger than before.
What is even more enticing is the fact that the Evergreen guild has strong ties with the Church of Life and Death. It is not a secret that the guild leader of the Evergreen guild is the Envoy of the Goddess of Life. She also has powerful area revival spells that can basically turn the tides when guild wars will arrive.
The wave of monsters that arrived may not be getting pushed back but they are having a difficult time getting inside the territory. The battle went on for the whole five hours and the last wave finally arrived. Unlike the preliminary wave that was triggered by the candidate guardian of the tree of life, the final wave of monsters are ten times bigger than all the waves.
The scariest thing that they see in the final wave are the tree field bosses. Each of the field bosses are all in the level 300 range. The field bosses are different monsters that could be said to have great strength.
The field boss that arrived first is a Blazing Condor which is not really blazing in fire, but its name is from the extreme body heat that the monster has. Even if it dies, the meat of the Blazing Condor will retain its heat while its blood is a great alchemy ingredient for enhancement potions.
The second field boss is an Armored Rhinoceros which could destroy the gate with one tackle. The last field boss is a Fierce Lion which can eat a human with one bite due to its sheer size.
