Ascension journey - 377. Chapter 372 The Great Sage and the Tree Planting Project, Ivey's Decision

Although it’s not that I can’t understand the greatness of knowledge, the restless Lacey is more adapted to actual physical exercises like using a knife than immersed in a sea of information.

This is also one of the reasons why she went to the warrior training camp after she came out of the training ground of the World Tree Sect.

Warrior class can also tap their real name power by continuously purifying and strengthening their will. It cannot be said that it has no future.

But since Lacey has chosen the path of wisdom and truth as the foundation of her faith, she must carry it out even with tears in her tears.

Even if learning is a very painful thing.

However, it is precisely because of this pain that the boring study has extraordinary significance for Lacey.

For the legendary red dragon who specializes in soul magic and has a wide range of knowledge, it is not difficult to make the learning process lively and interesting, and to make the teaching materials more suitable for active people like Lacey and focus on practical exercises. matter.

However, as he said to Lacey at the same beginning, it is not difficult to understand it is not important. To hone the will in pain and gradually change various concepts and ways of thinking in self-determination. It is he who makes Lacey. The primary purpose of painful learning.

For the Red Dragon, who does not advocate using external forces to distort the soul algorithm, as long as Lacey develops a curious baby to dig into the roots on a logical level, retain basic doubts about everything, and dare to say “why” to any phenomenon, then it will be enough. Meet the basic requirements.

With this foundation, problems such as knowledge accumulation can be solved by soul magic without affecting the soul algorithm framework.

After explaining the truth of “the current study is for more convenient learning in the future” to Lacey, who was looking sad, the red dragon who had carved out his divinity left Lacey holding the teaching materials.

The establishment of a belief connection that knows why is a complicated and long-term process, and he is not in a hurry. He has many other projects to study.

At this moment, Lacey had already left the organization that was originally used to detect overlapping planes and deal with related hazards under special approval. She could not find any excuses for getting unlimited vacations, so she could only squat in the hut and study continuously.

……

In the plane with no obvious season division and all over the plants, the elemental torrent that symbolizes the breathing of the world tree has risen and fallen several times, and the average energy density is a little closer to the peak of the elemental tide.

Beyond the ice and snow mountains very far away from the capital of the Elf Kingdom, the land that was once full of traces of natural disasters has been covered by dense vegetation.

Surrounded by dense forests, a cone-shaped volcano is very eye-catching, and heat waves and smoke continue to rise from the opening of the peak.

At this moment, two elves, one big and one small, were standing on the edge of the volcano and probing their heads towards the steep vertical inner wall below.

“That’s it…” The blond Ivey simply tied a single ponytail. With his short bow in his left hand, he looked at the inside of the crater, his eyes staying on the inner wall. On a raised rock.

Then he beckoned and asked the little elf around him to come over: “Lily, see if there is a hole below.”

The short-haired elf, who was not taller than Ivey’s chest and was obviously not yet adult, looked curiously in the direction Ivey was pointing.

Then the young elf Lily who was born in recent years slightly flicked his fingers. Some scattered light spots floated out of his fingertips like flying insects with life. After flying around for a circle, they flew down the inner wall of the crater and went around. Below that raised rock.

As soon as the spot of light circumvented the rock, Lily nodded in surprise: “Senior Ivy, there is indeed a hidden cave there.”

Ivey took a deep breath with a complex look, then raised the short bow and gently moved the bowstring, several emerald brilliance flashed in the crater.

Suddenly slender vines appeared on the inner wall of the volcano hit by a light arrow, and a simple spiral staircase was built all the way down.

Lily stuck out her tongue when she saw it, and shook her hands and asked with some guilty conscience: “Senior, won’t the spreading roots damage the stability of the volcanic rock mass? What should we do if it causes a volcanic eruption?”

“A little bit of extended rock mass outside the crater, which is so easy to have problems,” Ivey glanced at the dwarf junior, stretched out his hand to grab the vine and fell towards the crater. “Furthermore, the presence of a volcano shows that this is a matter of elemental change. Node, we will “plant trees” here sooner or later.”

“Wait, wait for me!” Seeing Ivey’s several ups and downs, like a zipline, quickly fell below the raised rock, Lily, who was not very athletic, was a little anxious.

But looking at the hot and dazzling lava pool below, he didn’t dare to play like Ivey, so he could only help the vines to walk down the plant ladder little by little.

Lily walked slowly on the swaying vine stairs full of holes, and it took more than ten times to get down to the raised rock, Lily breathed a sigh of relief.

With a little curiosity, Lily walked into the huge cave hidden by the rock, and soon saw Ivey who was squatting on the ground deep in the cave and didn’t know what he was doing.

“It’s too slow,” Ivey frowned and looked back. “Didn’t you score well in the magic exam? There are so many spells that you need to use.”

“Uh, I thought Senior created a ladder just to save me some magic…” Lily who came by was a little embarrassed.

“…Your generation was born in magic, and there is still a concept of saving magic in your mind?” Ivey spit out something from the gap between the rocks, and then cautiously used magic brilliance. Pinching the objects he found with his fingers, carefully observe in front of his eyes.

“What’s this?” The curious Lily moved her face to look at it, and found that Ivey’s hand was an arc-shaped fragment with a delicate pattern, which looked like a part of a biological eggshell.

Ivey, who pondered for a while, didn’t know how many magical auras flashed in his hands, then he nodded, carefully sealed the eggshell fragments in his hand and sealed them with magic techniques: “This should be the red dragon’s eggshell fragments, right? , Maybe it will be useful in the future.”

“Huh?” After reacting to what Ivey was saying, Lily, with little stars shining in her eyes, turned her head and looked around. “It turns out that this is the place where the legendary great sage was born!”

“Sage…” Ivey looked helplessly at the younger generation who was running wild in the cave with joy and used the magic bracelet for video recording, and he couldn’t help but sigh softly in his heart.

In recent years, due to the great technological advancement, the elven kingdom has undergone earth-shaking changes. The identity of the red dragon who led the elven mage in the research and development of a large number of technical products has gradually been revealed. With tangible achievements, the elves who have experienced the red dragon disaster in the past have been revealed. Reluctantly let go of prejudices.

However, compared with the old-age elves who always felt weird in their hearts, the new elves born after the red dragon demon changed the elves mother tree, and the number of elves born and the growth rate became controllable, they had a higher affection for the red dragon. a lot of.

Ivey, who has experienced the Red Dragon-related incidents throughout the process, has quite complicated senses, but the sayings of the great sage circulated in the mouth of the new generation of elves like Lili are probably made by his friend Lacey.

“Believe in something like this…” Thinking of some information recently collected, Ivey couldn’t help feeling a little sad.

From his teacher Diona, Ivey learned that the magic research team led by the Red Dragon encountered some difficulties and bottlenecks. Many wizards with different concepts began to make a lot of noise. It seems that some deep-seated discoveries have caused the researchers. A certain three-view impact.

At this time, in order to verify some theories, to explore more phenomena and knowledge, and to continue to improve his real name level, the red dragon plans to break through the plane and go to other places in the World Tree.

Lacey, who has recently successfully established a special customized version of the faith connection, as a cutting-edge researcher and first believer, naturally follows his teacher and master.

Ivey’s melancholy place is also here-he and Lacey were born from the same fruit of the mother tree. He was almost inseparable from his childhood, except for the postgraduate study period after graduation, and his feelings were extremely deep.

Although the elves don’t like lively scenes, they attach great importance to feelings.

Ivey didn’t want to be separated from Lacey in different planes, and didn’t know how long it would take to meet again.

“But how do I keep up…” Ivey followed the excited Lily and explored the cave, while thinking distressed in his heart, “Is it really going to try to believe in that red dragon?”

Traveling across the plane is quite dangerous, and Iveco, who has never been in the legend, has no ability to cross planes freely.

But for no reason, the Red Dragon was burdened with a burden. Ivey, who had fought with him and had a slightly proud personality, always found it difficult to speak, but to believe in the Red Dragon…

It is not so easy to establish a faith connection with a red dragon who has only a little bit of divinity, no priesthood, divine power, and even a demigod.

With the help of bloodline induction, Lacey can indirectly contact the divine nature of the red dragon after changing the way of thinking, and finally successfully locate and connect the real names of the two parties.

Rather than relying on idealistic trust and admiration to establish a connection of faith, it is better to say that the two guys are connected using their real names from the perspective of objective materialism.

Ivey, who was originally an excellent magician, has some confidence in the matching of thinking after all these years of new-style magic training, so the difference is a little blood resonance…

——If you go to Lacey, you may not be able to use magic…

Just as Ivey was hesitating and thinking, Lily suddenly screamed. The regained Ivey also noticed the abnormal element changes coming from behind, and slammed his short bow and turned his body.

In the cave that is not a tortuous cave, the brightness of the fire light propagating in the direction of its entrance has suddenly increased by several levels, and the fire element that is almost visible to the naked eye is surging and spreading everywhere.

Ivey, who mobilized magic power to weave the language of runes and inspired a group of fire element protection spells, looked back at Lily, who was protected by her own spell.

Some nervous young elves nodded to Ivey, some inconspicuous light spots flying around in his hand in the bright light, and then a burst of magical brilliance connected to the magic bracelet, projecting a clear three-dimensional picture in front of him Picture.

In the picture, the lava pool outside the cave was boiling violently, countless flames exploded on the surface of the tumbling lava, and a vortex slowly formed in the center.

At the core of the vortex, a monster with a rough human-like upper body and a lower body purely composed of lava flames slowly formed, and its body began to grow and grow bit by bit with the gathering of fire elements.

The incomparably familiar feeling outside the cave made Ivey’s eyes twitched slightly, and combined with the images shown by Lily, he immediately understood what was happening outside: “The phenomenon of overlapping planes…the fire elemental creatures coming from the elemental plane? ..”

After thinking for a while, Ivey put away the short bow and took out a dice-sized translucent cube green crystal from his arms.

A flat seed full of rune words difficult to discern by the naked eye is vaguely sealed in the crystal.

“Just so, planting a tree will kill three birds with one stone…”

At this moment, it seemed that the existence of two elves in the cave was sensed. The Fire Elemental Life slowly turned around and cast his ignorant gaze towards the entrance of the cave, and then raised his arm made of pure lava flames towards the cave. Stretch out.

The sturdy arm that couldn’t even be distinguished by the fingers had swelled to the point where it was thicker than the entrance of the cave, but the fire elementary creature pushed hard without paying attention, deforming the elemental arm and stuffing it into the cave, digging into the depths.

In the cave where a large piece of rock melted and the temperature jumped wildly, Ivey and Lily retreated to the dazzling elemental arms that were randomly digging out, and quickly retreated to the widest part of the cave.

Ivey, who silently preset the teleportation magic just in case, breathed a sigh of relief, put the square crystal in his hand on the ground, and took Lily back to the corner of the cave with a stable structure, triggering the unlocking procedure of the crystal from a distance.

The translucent square crystals on the outer layer disappeared instantly, and the seeds exposed to the air suddenly spread out countless layers of extremely complex rune arrays.

The raging flame tentacles swallowed this magical seed on the spot.

But in the next moment, the dense forest surrounding the volcano was like a huge network, gathering the infinite emerald elemental energy and throwing it into the cave inside the volcano.

The tall volcano was broken out by a large number of thick roots in the next instant. The powerful plants grew and grew at a terrifying speed inside the volcano, bursting the entire mountain in an instant.

It was an ancient tree of Demon Reformed War that was several levels stronger than the original.

The towering trees spread out the emerald green canopy, and the tremor of the space spreads in all directions along with the convergence of elemental magic.

After the angry fire elementary life struggled to burn a few thick roots, it was directly blown up by the space turned inside and outside, turning into nutrients and blending into the magic torrent of the ancient war tree along the roots.

The distorted space turned the vector upside down, and the volcanic lava that was stimulated by the dying eruption of the fire elemental creatures and the spread of roots to the eruption, was forced back under the control of the incredible space of the ancient war tree, and the unstable position in the depths of the lava pool The overlapping phenomenon was also completely suppressed by the growing old war tree.

The branches of the ancient war tree protected Ivey and Lily all the way. Ivey controlled the huge growing tree and lifted the two to the canopy with its branches.

Glancing at Lily, who was using various magic props and adjusting the operating parameters of the ancient war tree with the latest magic knowledge system, Ivey sighed slightly, looking into the distance in a daze.

In the distant woods, one can see huge trees that are similar to Ivey’s feet at standard distances.

The third-generation mobile magic furnace uses ancient war trees as a carrier and is connected to a vast enchanted dense forest. The magic network planned by the elves is laid out to a wider space outside the border, facilitating migration and expansion after the population skyrocketing. The future clansmen of the elves provide endless magical powers.

Witnessing the shocking tree-planting project caused by the arrival of the red dragon, and recalling the earth-shaking changes of the elves during this time, Ivey’s heart moved slightly, and a trace of inexplicable complex thoughts was mixed in his attachment to his friends. .

“That red dragon, maybe a letter is also good…”

——Isn’t it the lifelong pursuit of a master to explore the rules and chase the truth? For now, Red Dragon really represents the most advanced and cutting-edge…

With all kinds of thoughts in his mind, Ivey checked the working status of the magic furnace of this node, and then rushed to the next node with her junior intern Lily…
