Chapter 227: This Is the History of My Clan (Begging for Monthly Tickets)

Greenwood City.

Early morning, a thin mist draped over the entire city like gossamer.

Sunlight filtered through layer upon layer of leaves, spilling onto the streets, dappled light and shadow swaying with the breeze.

This is a green city that coexists with vegetation.

Towering trees merged with the buildings; vines climbed the walls; green leaves and brickwork intertwined, as if every house had grown naturally from the earth.

The air of the city was filled with the fresh scent of grass and trees, and a great many bird species from Earth had made their home here.

This area had once been heavily polluted, but under the construction of the Greenwood Clan, its ecology had been restored.

It possessed the finest ecosystem of any major city on Earth.

The city's core philosophy was also coexistence with nature; even the city's cleaning system was entrusted to plants, relying entirely on their decomposing ability.

The streets were paved with a special permeable material that let rainwater seep quickly underground, continuously providing ample moisture for surface vegetation.

In the gaps along both sides of the streets and between buildings, large numbers of plants with decomposing ability were planted; their root systems could secrete a special enzyme capable of breaking down organic waste—fallen leaves, food scraps, even paper—turning it into fertilizer for the plants.

In addition, the city had set up multiple ecological treatment stations, each composed of dense plant communities.

Residents' household waste was sorted and sent to these stations, where the biodegradable organic matter was rapidly decomposed by plants and microorganisms, converted into soil nutrients, and used for the city's greening projects, forming a closed-loop ecological cycle.

Moreover, the rivers and lakes of Greenwood City also bore part of the cleaning function.

Large numbers of low-grade spiritual plants were grown in the rivers and lakes; they could purify the water and absorb harmful substances within it.

The city's domestic sewage was discharged untreated directly into the waterways, where aquatic spiritual plants and microorganisms purified it, eventually turning it into clear water that flowed back into the city's circulation system.

The Human Clan once proposed importing this technology, but ultimately failed.

It was not that the Greenwood Clan was unwilling to share it, but that the Human Clan could not master the innate abilities of the Greenwood Clan, nor cultivate these special plants in Earth's low-spiritual-energy environment.

At this moment, in the central district of the city.

Inside a building covered in greenery.

The game pod lid slowly opened, and Cang Fu bent forward and rose.

"Cough, cough!"

The moment he took a breath of the real world's air, he could not help but cough, even feeling a sense of suffocation.

A heavy, stifling smell filled the air, as if even the oxygen had grown much thinner.

Cang Fu raised a hand and rubbed his temple, feeling as if his head were stuffed with lead, impossibly heavy.

Accustomed to the Monster World's abundant spiritual energy—an environment where he could feel energy flowing with every breath—the real world's air made him feel especially unwell.

And yet, Greenwood City's air environment was already recognized as the best among all the major cities on Earth.

Even so, it was still hard to compare with the Monster World.

Every time he logged off, the feeling was utterly wretched to him; both mind and body would experience a sense of rejection.

He even wanted to log back on the very next second, to return to the Monster World.

He slowly stood up; the long gaming session had left his legs a little weak.

Stepping out of the game pod, Cang Fu looked down at his own hands—fingers with wood-grain texture trembled uncontrollably.

His heavy body brought an unprecedented feeling of weakness; even lifting an arm seemed to require enormous effort.

Walking to the window, he pushed open the window entwined with vines, letting fresh air pour into the room.

Yet the air outside was not much better than inside.

Returning to the computer desk, he looked around; vines crawled all over the walls, greenery hung down from the ceiling, and sunlight filtered in through the gaps in the branches and leaves.

Unlike before, the drooping greenery on the walls now looked like shapeless blobs of ink stains.

Their outlines blurred in his eyes, no longer possessing the crisp appearance of the past.

The sunlight coming through the window was no longer a series of bright rays, but had bled into hazy patches of light, their edges fuzzy and indistinct.

He tried hard to focus his gaze, wanting to see the dust suspended in the air, but the dust seemed to have melted into this chaotic field of vision, impossible to distinguish any longer.

Every blink was like stirring a pool of murky lake water, making the scene before his eyes ever more blurred and unbearable.

He drew a deep breath to adjust his state, but his chest felt as if blocked by a massive stone; every breath came with a faint stab of pain.

Compared with the Monster World in the game—filled with spiritual energy, where he could soar at will—the real world was simply a cage.

In the game he possessed hawk-like sharp vision, able to see the faintest movement a thousand meters away; mountains, rivers, and streams were as clear as a painting in his eyes.

After activating the Hawk-Headed Demon perception, he could gain an unprecedented level of fine-grained vision.

But after returning to reality, he could not even make out the full view of this small room, always feeling that the things in his line of sight were veiled by a layer of gauze.

Cang Fu lowered his head and glanced at the terminal on his wrist; the screen displayed an unread message.

After tapping it, a cold female voice sounded:

"Mr. Cang Fu, your game time has exceeded the safety threshold. It is recommended that you undergo a physical examination immediately."

Cang Fu paid it no heed; he reached out, picked up the body-regulating fluid on the desk, unscrewed the cap, and drank it down in one gulp.

He pressed the red button on the desk; the lights shifted to green, and a projection descended from the ceiling, forming a light-screen image before him.

With doubts in mind, Cang Fu began to browse the clan's historical records.

Just now, while waiting out his resurrection cooldown, he had been browsing the forums and came across a post.

【Ancient legends of the Forest Realm—a newbie here, please supplement some background info, there's a video record.】

Seeing the post's title, he—who was already very interested in the Monster World's historical background—chose to click and view it.

But the video content in the post left him dumbfounded.

Isn't this exactly the origin of the Greenwood Clan recorded in history?

But part of the Greenwood Clan's history had been lost; he could not make an accurate judgment as to whether the description truly referred to the Greenwood Clan's predecessor.

So he chose to log off and look up the Greenwood Clan's historical database.

Entering the Greenwood Clan's official site and clicking the historical records category, Cang Fu began to browse the historical content archived on the Star Net.

In the database, the history of the Greenwood Clan is divided into five stages.

The first stage: The Chapter of Origins.

This portion of history is already incomplete in the database, and its narrative style leans toward mythic concepts.

It's somewhat like the unprovable myths of the human race — Pangu parting heaven and earth, Nüwa shaping mankind, and the like.

It tells how the Divine Mother descended from the heavens, bringing the light of wisdom and life.

The ancestors of the Greenwood Clan were born from the spores the Divine Mother scattered, and were granted the ability to commune with nature — this is also why the Greenwood Clan can innately feel close to nature.

During this process, the Divine Mother taught the Greenwood people how to coexist with plants, and even how to draw energy from the earth.

Through the wisdom bestowed by the Divine Mother, the Greenwood Clan built a flourishing civilization of wisdom.

The origin story also laid the faith and even the cultural foundation that the Greenwood Clan has carried down to this day.

To this day the Greenwood Clan still worships the Divine Mother, but history long ago lost any verifiable record; no one can say what the Divine Mother actually looked like, so the statue of the Divine Mother erected in Greenwood City is entirely the fabrication of later imaginations.

Whether this stretch of history even existed is hard to prove.

The second stage of Greenwood Clan history: The Chapter of Catastrophe.

This stretch of history is severely lost, only vaguely recording the Greenwood Clan's years of flourishing development, until the catastrophe descended.

The story is somewhat like the ancient apocalypse tales in human mythology — the Great Flood (Noah's Ark, Dayu taming the waters), the Skyfire that burned the world (Ragnarök), the Ten Suns rising together, and so on.

The contents likewise cannot be verified.

This stage was also the darkest hour in Greenwood Clan history; the survival of the race faced a severe test.

In the end, their ancestors chose to flee their homeland, seeking hope for the race's continuation in a new world.

The third stage: The Chapter of Exile — Hegemon of the World.

This stage has quite a bit of content that can be verified, and even a small amount of image records has survived.

It tells of the Greenwood Clan's development after fleeing to the new world.

When the Greenwood Clan first arrived in the new world, because the teleportation arrays they used differed, they were sent in batches to different regions of the world.

The historical records mention one point.

Those teleported down to the new world were all Greenwood children aged six to eight; not a single elder came along.

Later scholars speculate that the elders triggered some kind of taboo during the cross-spatial teleportation, causing all ancestors above that age bracket to perish.

At this point the Greenwood Clan's strength was weak and their numbers few, forcing them to attach themselves to the local powerful force, the "Red Passage Clan."

Upon brief contact, the Red Passage Clan realized the Greenwood Clan possessed terrifying growth potential.

If this force were allowed to take root in the world, the Red Passage Clan would lose its position as world hegemon.

During this stage the Greenwood Clan faced suppression on every front.

Forced under the Red Passage Clan's exploitation to mine resources and build plant-cities, they were even prohibited from using their nature-controlling talent, and the race's culture and faith were gradually eroded.

Until a young Greenwood warrior named "Cang Teng" appeared.

Unwilling to let the Greenwood Clan remain slaves forever, he rallied Greenwood warriors in the name of the Divine Mother, attempting to rebel against the oppression.

To the Red Passage Clan of that time, this act undoubtedly violated a taboo.

As the world's rulers, the Red Passage Clan well understood that faith is the spiritual core of a race.

To control the Greenwood Clan completely, they not only oppressed them physically but also tried to destroy their faith spiritually, transforming the Greenwood Clan's worship of the Divine Mother and of nature into worship of the Red Passage Clan.

They even falsified Greenwood Clan history and established a caste system.

They cast the Greenwood Clan as slaves by birth, claiming only loyalty to the Red Passage Clan could earn sublimation on the soul level.

The massive loss of the race's historical records also occurred precisely during this period of Greenwood Clan oppression.

Destroying symbols of faith, falsifying historical records, cultural infiltration (altering the script), spiritual control… every step was aimed at strangling the Greenwood Clan's future.

Cang Teng's appearance awakened the Greenwood Clan of that time.

A brutal war thus began.

Starting as a localized conflict, more and more Greenwood warriors joined the war, gradually developing into a full-scale war that swept the world.

The Greenwood Clan, having thoroughly thrown off their shackles, displayed a power — and a potential for development — that filled the Red Passage Clan with fear.

The destination the Red Passage Clan had long dreamed of was merely the starting point the Greenwood Clan could easily reach.

When the war ended, the world was occupied by plant-type lifeforms created by the Greenwood Clan, and history officially entered a new era belonging to the Greenwood Clan.

The fourth stage: Hegemon of the New World.

This stage tells of the prosperous years after the Red Passage Clan's rule was overthrown and the Greenwood Clan became hegemon of the new world.

A new leader established a new nation built on the developmental system of natural force, and restored the Greenwood Clan's faith and culture.

Although much history has been lost, Greenwood Clan scholars still strive to piece together the blurred past, compiling it into canonical texts to pass down to later generations.

Natural force was also widely applied during this process to agriculture, construction, medicine,

This stretch of history is also the pride in the Greenwood Clan's heart.

The fifth stage: The Apocalypse Returns.

A terrifying doomsday descended once more, though the description of the calamity differs from those in mythic tales.

But this disaster was still not one the Greenwood Clan could withstand.

While resisting the heavenly calamity, the Greenwood Clan, emulating the ancestors recorded in ancient texts, built cross-world teleportation arrays and resolved to flee to other worlds to seek development.

But the number of teleportation arrays was, after all, limited; in the end only a small portion of the clansmen obtained the chance to escape.

History officially entered the modern chapter — the Earth chapter.

This cross-spatial exodus also saw the loss of quite a bit of historical material.

Their generation was born on Earth, and can only learn of the Greenwood Clan's past through the surviving historical records.

As for verification — even the world has changed, so what records could there possibly be to verify against?

There are no Greenwood Clan civilization ruins on Earth; if one wanted to do archaeology, one could only return to the lost world.

But that was simply impossible to achieve.

The historical documents of the Earth chapter were the clearest, with explicit records of every process of historical development.

When the Green Wood Clan had just descended upon Earth, although they received support from forces of the Earth Alliance such as the Eclipse Clan, they still lived in utter misery.

The main reason was that Earth's environmental pollution was severe — for the ancestors who had descended at that time, it was simply a nightmare.

During this period, large numbers of clanspeople died because they could not adapt to the environment. In the end, the Human Clan provided land and the Eclipse Clan provided technology, helping to build the early Green Wood City, which finally curbed the continuous deaths caused by environmental pollution.

The Green Wood Clan thus merged into the Earth Alliance, and within a short time became one of the ten great clans of the Earth Alliance through natural techniques.

But Earth's resources were limited, and the Green Wood Clan's development had already hit a bottleneck, making it difficult to continue climbing.

The present Green Wood Clan simply could not compare with the Green Wood Clan recorded in history.

But relying on the natural techniques left behind by their ancestors, they still held a certain voice within the Earth Alliance.

During this period, the Green Wood Clan underwent great changes; the internal political system was revised, and they thoroughly merged into the Earth Alliance.

The former system of a supreme sole leader was changed to learn from the Earth Alliance's parliamentary system.

The present Green Wood Clan was jointly governed by twelve administrators.

Moreover, they had connected to the Star Net platform very early, were granted an A-rank advanced intelligence brain by Star Net to assist the clan's development, and had also obtained fairly high administrative permissions in the Star Net world.

After reading through the historical materials, Cang Fu felt a surge of emotion in his heart.

The glorious history of their forebears wielding nature and building a brilliant civilization was the spiritual anchor of their pride.

But the epic sealed away by the years was ultimately the past; compared to the present, there was only a sense of severance.

They had also tried to search for the lost natural techniques, but by today, they had basically given up.

The present Green Wood Clan was no longer that glorious Green Wood Clan.

Even judging from the trend of historical development, the Green Wood Clan was undergoing decline.

Besides the technological decline brought by the massive loss of natural techniques, there was also decline at the genetic level and in life intensity.

Living in Earth, this weak spiritual-energy world, the Green Wood Clan's bodies had undergone five declines.

The first was during the initial crossing and descent, when they suffered the inability to adapt to the new environment.

Large numbers of ancestors experienced various discomforts due to Earth's environmental pollution, and clanspeople kept dying during this period.

But with the help of the Eclipse Clan and the Human Clan, the Green Wood Clan finally endured through the most difficult stage, and the trend of population shrinkage was curbed.

After this, the Green Wood Clan underwent the second life decline.

In order to adapt to Earth's heavily polluted environment, which long lacked the nourishment of spiritual energy, the Green Wood Clan's life form autonomously degenerated.

The body strength of the new-generation clanspeople dropped sharply, the spirit patterns on their woody skin surfaces dimmed, and their natural affinity also weakened.

The third decline came shortly after the appearance of the third batch of Earth-born infants.

Many of the Green Wood Clan's inherited arts could no longer be used by this generation; the Green Wood Clan's life intensity declined further, and the new-generation clanspeople had fragile bodies and were prone to illness.

The fourth decline was the drop in birth rate, with a marked decrease in the number of clanspeople awakening natural talent.

The Green Wood Clan's inherited arts were nearly broken off, recorded only in history, and even if this generation of clanspeople learned them, they would find them difficult to use.

They could only master some shallow techniques for harmonizing with nature.

By their generation, the fifth decline brought a marked drop in lifespan.

Regarding this, the Green Wood Clan's administrators had also thought of solutions, but apart from renovating Green Wood City and building a better urban environment, there was nothing they could do.

Under the influence of the greater environment, the Green Wood Clan's efforts could hardly reverse the trend of bodily degeneration.

After reading through the historical materials, Cang Fu felt puzzled in his heart.

In Monster World, the historical story of the Green Source Clan was strikingly similar to the ancient history recorded by the Green Wood Clan.

The difference was that the Eclipse Clan had embellished and altered this stretch of history.

For example, in Monster World's backstory, the Green Source Clan chose to face the Black Tide catastrophe head-on, fighting to the death and unwilling to leave.

But in the Green Wood Clan's fragmentary history, when their ancestors faced the unknown catastrophe, they chose to flee to other worlds, unwilling to stay and face it.

In terms of details, the Eclipse Clan had also fleshed out and supplemented this backstory, including the Divine Mother's descent to sow seeds of wisdom after her arrival, and the growing years of the Green Source Clan.

After watching the video content in the forum post and comparing it with the Green Wood Clan's history, it could basically be confirmed that the Eclipse Clan had tampered with their Green Wood Clan's ancient mythological history.

But this kind of embellishment and alteration only made Cang Fu feel angry.

Because this stretch of history was entirely fake.

Mushroom birthing seeds, the Divine Mother's wrathful restraint, the terrifying Black Tide, the Green Source Clan… these fabricated histories were a desecration of the Green Wood Clan's true history.

Filled with anger, Cang Fu immediately decided to contact the Green Wood Clan's administrators.

Pressing the contacts list, he tapped the avatar of one administrator and sent the email's contents.

He gave a detailed account of everything he had seen and heard.

……

Two hours later.

The Green Wood Clan administrator "Cang Yu," who was on duty, was checking emails sent by clanspeople when he saw Cang Fu's email.

At first, Cang Yu paid it no heed.

But when he saw the historical fabrication, he could not help frowning.

He then decisively logged into Monster World's official website and began to look through the post Cang Fu had mentioned.

After locking onto the post through the search function, he clicked in.

The video content inside made Cang Yu's blood pressure soar.

Especially the segment in the video where the giant mushroom gave birth to the Green Source Clan — it was practically a slap in the face to the Green Wood Clan.

Wasn't this secretly mocking their Green Wood Clan as descendants spawned by a giant mushroom?

Although the ancient history was fragmentary, the historical clues obtained after repeated verification by the clan's scholars could prove that the Green Wood Clan was a race created by the Divine Mother.

But in the backstory woven by the Eclipse Clan, the Green Source Clan — clearly modeled on the Green Wood Clan — was actually born from a giant mushroom.

What's worse, this story's background actually gave a name to the deity mother they worship: Anger's Restraint.

Blaspheming faith, rewriting history… the Eclipse Tribe has bullied us far too much!

Even if this ancient history was beautified, it still isn't the truth.

The story looks glamorous on the surface, yet has nothing to do with the Green Wood Tribe's real experience.

The Green Wood Tribe's true history is their foundation, and moreover carries the meaning of bearing the clan's faith and culture — all of this must be built upon real history.

Monster World's influence is growing by the day; it may well affect the next generation's historical memory.

Carrying his anger, Cang Yu closed the forum, then summoned the Earth Alliance's executive officer contact platform.

He placed a call to the Eclipse Tribe's Executive Officer No. 3.

Before long, the call connected, and the figure of the Eclipse Tribe's Executive Officer No. 3 appeared in the light-screen image.

His facial contours in the image were sharply defined; though the years had left some traces on his face, they did not detract from his innate noble bearing, and instead added a touch of maturity and steadiness.

Beneath his Gao Ting nose bridge, the lines of his lips were resolute; after the connection was made, he gave a slight nod toward him:

"Green Wood Tribe Executive Officer."

"Executive Officer No. 3, I need you to explain to me why you altered my tribe's history and turned this history into game background content?"

Executive Officer No. 3 was stunned for a moment, then seemed to think of something:

"You mean Monster World's background story?"

"Exactly. Back when we connected to the Star Net, you clearly promised us that you would not casually browse the data and information our tribe stored on the Star Net, and that you would grant us absolute data security and trust."

"But this time you not only secretly browsed my tribe's historical data content, you also altered my tribe's history and turned it into a game. I need you to give me an explanation."

Although he knew that within the Earth Alliance, the Eclipse Tribe had always held a leading position.

Cang Yu still wanted to question the Eclipse Tribe.

Centuries of friendship between the two tribes, cooperation across several generations — why must the Eclipse Tribe humiliate the Green Wood Tribe like this?

After a brief silence, Executive Officer No. 3 nodded and said:

"Green Wood Tribe Executive Officer, the game Monster World was produced by the Star Net; we did not participate in the process at all. This is clearly a misunderstanding. Perhaps when the Star Net was making the game, it retrieved data stored on the network and inadvertently captured historical documents your tribe uploaded to the Star Net, referenced part of the content, and turned it into game content."

"Don't worry, the friendship between our two tribes will not be damaged. I'll inquire with the Star Net about the specifics right now, and give you a clear answer in three hours."

"If the fault is clearly on our side, I will certainly give you a satisfactory compensation and offer a sincere apology."

Seeing the Eclipse Tribe's Executive Officer No. 3's attitude so sincere, Cang Yu's anger largely subsided.

The Eclipse Tribe's response had already given ample face.

The fact was, even if the Eclipse Tribe gave no answer at all, or even refused to acknowledge them, the Green Wood Tribe had no recourse whatsoever.

Viewing the Eclipse Tribe from a historical perspective.

Back then, if not for the Eclipse Tribe and the Human Tribe coming to the rescue, the Green Wood Tribe might have already perished in Earth's highly polluted environment.

After that, the Eclipse Tribe also provided a large amount of technological equipment to the Green Wood Tribe free of charge; calling the Eclipse Tribe the Green Wood Tribe's benefactors would not be an exaggeration.

Thinking of this, Cang Yu eased his tone:

"Sorry, I was too agitated."

"I can understand your feelings. History is a clan's foundation. Your Greenwood Tribe and our Eclipse Tribe are both outsider clans, so naturally we place extra weight on history... If there's nothing else, I'll hang up first. Next, I'll go ask the Star Net about the specifics."

Eclipse City, Eclipse Tower.

After Executive Officer No. 3 hung up on Cang Yu's connection, he fell into thought.

After a brief silence, he opened Monster World's official website, entered the forum, and typed "Green Wood Tribe" into the search bar.

But no information was retrieved.

Then he typed "background materials" into the search bar, and immediately a large number of posts lined up on the interface.

Sorting the search results by posting time, Executive Officer No. 3's gaze focused on the most recently posted thread:

【Ancient legends of the Forest Realm, newbie here for some background material supplements, with video documentation.】

He clicked the post, and the screen jumped to the detailed page.

The video in the post made Executive Officer No. 3 realize he had found the root of the problem.

This background material history clearly overlapped to a high degree with the Green Wood Tribe's historical information in terms of historical trajectory.

The key point was that the Green Wood Tribe believed this history had referenced the Green Wood Tribe's history.

After a long silence, Executive Officer No. 3 came up with one possibility.

Just as he was preparing to set about handling it.

The projection lamp at the top of the room activated automatically, and the projected light wove and converged beside Executive Officer No. 3.

At this moment, the Star Net descended in the form of a projection.

"Star Net." Seeing the Star Net's arrival, Executive Officer No. 3 rose and nodded respectfully.

The Star Net also nodded:

"I already understand the situation. It can basically be determined that the Green Source Tribe's history is the Green Wood Tribe's history. This branch of the race once came from Monster World, and has now returned to Monster World in the guise of players… but the Green Wood Tribe has developed a cognitive error regarding their own origins, and even regarding the truth of their early history."

Hearing the Star Net's account, Executive Officer No. 3 could not help but ask curiously:

"Star Net, you looked through the Green Wood Tribe's history?"

"Mm, just now I browsed the Green Wood Tribe's historical data and information and made a comparison. After all, this blame has already been pinned on us for sure — whether I look or not doesn't affect how we handle things going forward."

Saying so, the Star Net raised a hand and pointed forward, and a light-screen image popped up.

"This is the timeline I derived after comparison."

"What can be confirmed is that the video documentation in the forum is the true historical answer. At that time, the Green Wood Tribe — that is, the main force of the Green Source Tribe — did not flee Monster World; they only sent the newborns of the tribe to another world."

"But in the Green Wood Tribe's erroneous historical records, the Green Wood Tribe fled their homeland world as an entire tribe."

"The reason for the historical deviation is that after the Green Wood Tribe's newborns fled to the new world, they were enslaved. The local powers, in order to control the Green Wood Tribe, carried out a great massacre, during which they destroyed large amounts of the historical materials the Green Wood Tribe had carried with them during their flight — including many ancient natural technologies, which were also lost during this period."

As he spoke, two historical timelines surfaced in the light-screen image.

The historical information presented above, compared starting from the origin stage, has the points of historical divergence marked on the information line in red text.

Through the comparison of the two historical lines, one can intuitively see at which time nodes the Green Wood Race's historical information contains erroneous perceptions.

Therefore, what the Green Wood Race sees as desecrated and beautified is the true history, while the origin story in the Green Wood Race's eyes is the false fabrication.

More importantly, the video released on the forum clearly recorded that the Green Source Race's Divine Mother is "Nu'e".

But what made the Third Ruling Officer feel both amused and exasperated was that the Green Wood Race instead believed this was the Lunar Eclipse Race presumptuously bestowing a name upon their Divine Mother, an act that desecrated the Green Wood Race's faith.

"Star Net, what do you think we should do about this?"

Star Net did not answer directly, but looked at Ruling Officer No. 3 and asked back:

"No. 3, what do you think should be done."

Facing the inquiry, No. 3 was briefly silent before saying seriously:

"We must offer a solemn apology and provide resource compensation. Although the error is not ours, this matter involves a high-dimensional deity. Without his permission, we cannot reveal any information about him. Even if we have to pay a greater price, we must bear it... Fortunately, this issue is not difficult to handle. The Green Wood Race needs to give their people an explanation, and our compensation and admission of fault have already shown sufficient sincerity. The Green Wood Race's ruling officer will surely agree."

Upon hearing this, Star Net smiled and nodded:

"We'll handle it as you say. The specific arrangements will be your responsibility."

After speaking, Star Net's figure faded away.

Ending the conversation, the Third Ruling Officer immediately contacted the Green Wood Race's ruling officer.

Without any explanation, the Lunar Eclipse Race's Third Ruling Officer, upon connecting the video call, sincerely apologized and opened the permission to retain the apology footage.

After obtaining the Green Wood Race ruling officer's forgiveness, the Third Ruling Officer then expressed willingness to provide the Green Wood Race with additional D-grade resource assistance, to make up for Star Net's oversight in producing the Monster World game.

But Monster World is already officially running, and its content cannot be changed; he hoped the Green Wood Race could understand.

After this combination of moves, the anger in the Green Wood Race ruling officer's heart completely dissipated, and he finally nodded and said:

"Our friendship shall continue. I also apologize for my earlier rashness. Thank you to the Lunar Eclipse Race for your continued support and assistance to the Green Wood Race."

After ending the conversation, the Green Wood Race's ruling officer contacted "Cang Fu," who had sent the email, and explained the specific situation.

At this moment, in his room, Cang Fu, who had been waiting for a reply, saw the Lunar Eclipse Race ruling officer's apology video, and the doubts in his heart were resolved.

No wonder it looked familiar; this background material was indeed adapted from the Green Wood Race's mythological history.

From this, it can be seen that the Senluo Forest Region was also produced by referencing the content the Green Wood Race uploaded to the Star Net database.

This gave rise to a thought in Cang Fu's mind.

The natural techniques the Green Wood Race takes pride in were largely lost during the course of historical development.

Among them were many abilities to manipulate natural plants for combat.

So is there a possibility that the nature-manipulation abilities the new generation of the Green Wood Race can no longer use could be reapplied within the game scenes of Monster World?

Thinking of this, Cang Fu was amused by his own idea.

No matter how realistically Monster World is crafted, it is ultimately just a game.

Between a game and reality, there must be a significant gap in the operating laws of the world.

If the real-world environment cannot support this generation of Green Wood Race people in performing their inherited nature-manipulation abilities, then it is even less possible in a game.

If it could really be done, the Monster World game would simply be more realistic than the real world.

While finding his own idea laughable, Cang Fu could not help but think again:

"Hiss~ how about giving it a try?"

(End of this chapter)
