Chapter 301: The Fifth Knight Order (The Book Has Reached One Million Words)

~14 min read 2,639 words

Undead creatures have souls, but in fact, these are two different things: one is a spirit, and one is a soul. The spirit is consciousness, and the soul is the container. Ang meant that there is a consciousness on this straw owl.

This is not a rare thing. Some soul artifacts also have consciousness, such as the Earth Holy Hammer, the Brass Book...

The spirit on the straw owl is essentially the same existence as Nai Ge Li Si. However, when Ang touched it, he immediately felt the difference. This consciousness was muttering to itself:

"Child, take care."

"The Magic Rice is still a little bit away from success. I am not reconciled."

"I am the strongest druid."

"Dragon poop is really smelly..."

None of them were anything other than the content Ang had received from the residual consciousness of the Spring Breeze skeleton. There was nothing new.

Ang tilted his head and pointed to the little guy: "This consciousness, he created it."

Only a raw, created consciousness would be so rigid and monotonous. But this is already a very magical thing. A small child who hasn't learned anything could actually create a consciousness out of thin air based on the residual consciousness of the skeleton. This is definitely not a simple thing.

Nai Ge Li Si was stunned. Whether it was molding straw out of mud or a raw consciousness, neither was a normal power system. Only divine arts could have such magical effects.

But a child of a few years old defining a divine art? Are you kidding me?

"Xiao Bu, wait a minute. Why call him Xiao Bu?" Nai Ge Li Si thought of a question and turned to ask Kai Di.

"Did you give him a name?" Kai Di asked.

Nai Ge Li Si frowned and thought for a while, but couldn't remember if he had given him a name, and even less remembered if the Spring Breeze Arch-Druid had given him a name.

"So I temporarily call him Xiao Bu. Does Lord Nai Ge want to give him a name?" Kai Di asked.

Nai Ge Li Si shook his head: "Forget it, just call him Xiao Bu. It sounds pretty good."

Pausing, Nai Ge Li Si continued to ask: "What did you mean just now when you said he used mud to mold this straw owl? How can mud be molded into straw?"

Kai Di spread her hands, looking blank: "I don't know either. I just saw him molding it, and it turned into a lump of straw."

As she spoke, Kai Di turned to Xiao Bu and said softly: "Xiao Bu, how did you do it? Show Lord Nai Ge, okay?"

"Awoo, awoo!" Xiao Bu shook his head and hugged the straw owl tightly.

Nai Ge Li Si was stunned. Why does everyone know Awoo language? Taught by the little angel?

He could understand Awoo language. Xiao Bu said: "Change one, can't change."

The general meaning is that he has already changed one and cannot change a second one.

Nai Ge Li Si leaned in front of Xiao Bu and asked kindly: "Xiao Bu, why did you think of changing into an owl?"

Xiao Bu pointed to the straw owl and said in standard common language: "Wind Grandpa."

The little guy couldn't even speak clearly, but he said these few words so standardly. Someone must have taught him very patiently.

Nai Ge Li Si flew up and sighed to Kai Di: "Sigh, this little guy has never forgotten the Spring Breeze Arch-Druid. Maybe the Spring Breeze often transformed into an owl, so he thought the owl was his Wind Grandpa. Sigh, too pitiful. He remembers everything from before."

Kai Di nodded: "Yes, poor little guy. He still often wakes up from dreams and then hugs me and cries, saying the poop is really smelly. What kind of poop is it that he can remember it until now?"

Nai Ge Li Si scratched his nose awkwardly and was about to change the subject when he suddenly heard the sound of Awoo behind him.

Turning his head, he saw that the little angel had already dragged Xiao Bu to the mud ground next to him. Together with Ang the little zombie, everyone was kneeling with their knees hugged, forming a circle. Ang was pouring water inside the circle.

After the water was poured, the little angel "Awoo"ed at him.

"Awoo?"

"Awoo!"

"Awoo~"

"Bang!"

"Waa waa...!"

"Bang!"

After a friendly and enthusiastic communication, Xiao Bu, with two black eyes, aggrievedly started mixing the mud. He had just said he couldn't change it, but now, a new mud owl was slowly taking shape in his hands.

Nai Ge Li Si didn't know what to say. These guys who only know how to Awoo, their communication method is even more rough and direct.

Kai Di felt heartbroken, but didn't dare to say anything, and could only wring her clothes there.

The mud molded into the shape of an owl. Xiao Bu carefully carved the details there. The eyes and feathers were lifelike. After everything was carved, Xiao Bu reached out and picked it up.

Of course, mud couldn't be picked up, but Xiao Bu used a lot of force. When he forced it up, the mud owl scattered into a lump of straw.

"Hiss, it really changed. From mud to straw, how could this happen? It wouldn't be an illusion, right? Doesn't this mean changing elements?" Nai Ge Li Si gasped and muttered in disbelief.

This kind of change from one substance to another substance had already exceeded his understanding. He couldn't understand how this was done at all. Divine art?

Only divine art would have such unreasonable changes, or rather, it followed another set of laws—the laws of gods.

Thinking of this, Nai Ge Li Si hurriedly flew over to ask Ang: "Is he your believer? Can you stop squatting? You're such a big person, and a god at that. A bunch of people are watching you. Don't be like a child."

Only Ang could do this—a dignified Trinity God actually squatting on the ground watching a child play with mud.

Ang nodded.

"Which divine status?"

"God of Planting."

"I guessed it," Nai Ge Li Si had an "as expected" expression: "Then does this count as defining a divine art? Can you use this divine art?"

Ang nodded, molded a bone out of mud himself, and then picked it up.

The bone molded from mud instantly turned into a bone made of straw.

"... Can only change into straw? Can't change into other things? What's the use of mud changing into straw..." Nai Ge Li sighed: "I knew I shouldn't have had expectations."

Originally, he thought Ang could be a bit more capable and improve this divine art. After all, Xiao Bu is just a child under five years old. He can change into straw. If Ang improves it, can't he change into other things? For example, changing into gold or silver.

This is the conversion of elements, equivalent to changing earth elements into "wood" elements. It is simply a divine skill of creation. Of course, there is no "wood" element.

Ang tilted his head and thought for a while, picked up the straw bone, and threw it at Lei Dian: "Eat."

Lei Dian bit it in his mouth and asked while chewing: "Why let me eat? It's so hard to eat, it pricks my mouth. I want to eat the tender sprouts of the World Tree."

Although it was hard to eat, Lei Dian still chewed it up and swallowed it. He thought what Ang threw over was special straw. After all, it was changed. He didn't expect that after swallowing it, he found it was just a lump of straw, and even the texture was exactly the same.

How long had Lei Dian not gnawed on straw? He hadn't gnawed on it since following Ang. At the very least, it should be beet leaves.

"Pfft, really hard to eat." Lei Dian spat out some prickly bits.

Only then did Ang say: "Can eat."

Nai Ge Li Si understood what he meant and said irritably: "Yes, yes, yes, can eat, can take it to feed horses. Mud changes into straw, go feed horses."

This is fundamentally impossible. Don't look at mud changing into straw; both are worthless things, but it must require divine power. Consume a bunch of divine power just to change into straw to eat? Crazy.

For the time being, this is all he can do. The fundamental reason Ang is stubborn is that he can only change into straw.

"Then what about this spirit?" Nai Ge Li Si pointed to the consciousness in the straw owl.

Straw is straw after all. It's impossible to use it as a carrier for consciousness. It will fall apart before long. We have to find a way to transfer it to another place.

Ang took out a straw hat. He had collected many straw hats when he was on the farm, but most of them were broken until Nai Ge Li Si got the Point-Gold Rod and repaired them.

But it was meaningless at that time. There were many straw hats in Du Luo Ken's palace.

Transfer the consciousness to the hat and put it back on the straw owl.

"Hmm, this works too. The straw hat is the main body. As long as the hat isn't broken, it's fine. If the straw scatters, just tie it again," Nai Ge Li Si nodded and said.

The consciousness and the hat slowly merged together. Suddenly, with a "poof," the straw owl transformed into a simple owl—a living one.

However, anyone could see it was fake. The intensity of this consciousness was too low. Everyone present could see through this illusion.

Only Xiao Bu didn't care. He hugged the straw owl excitedly and shouted excitedly: "Wind Grandpa."

Under the illusion of the hat, the owl spoke in human language: "Dragon poop is really smelly... I am the strongest druid... Child, take care..."

Nai Ge Li Si had black lines on his forehead and turned to warn: "Don't let Nai Aili see it."

Kai Di nodded, not knowing why.

There was one more consciousness, but it wasn't complete. It was more like a remnant spirit body like a ghost or phantom. However, its significance was particularly important because it was created by Xiao Bu.

This was not the consciousness of the Spring Breeze Druid, but Xiao Bu gave this consciousness some similar behavioral characteristics based on his own memory. If something exceeded Xiao Bu's memory, it wouldn't exist.

For example, in his cognition, Wind Grandpa was an owl. He might have forgotten what the Spring Breeze Arch-Druid looked like in human form.

"Cultivate him well in the future. He's so capable at such a young age. Who knows what big things he can do in the future," Nai Ge Li Si sighed.

"Okay, then should we send him to the Star Academy? Xi Lu Di said there is an enlightenment class there. Three-year-old children can be sent in to receive magic enlightenment. She said the earlier you learn magic language, the better. Children's language talent is the best, and it degenerates when they grow up. I want to learn Awoo language, but I can't learn a single sentence, and he learned it easily," Kai Di said chattering.

"There's also..." Just as he was about to say something, a low voice suddenly rang out: "Woo woo woo woo—Tree Man Na Na Geer—Enemy discovered—Engage!"

The low voice could travel very far, and the entire City of the Goddess of Beauty instantly boiled over.

Ang immediately stepped into the air and looked toward the Falling Longhu in the west.

The Falling Longhu and the Great Rift Valley form a straight line, looking like an exclamation mark from the sky. The City of the Goddess of Beauty is built on the plain between the Great Rift Valley and the Donghe. Two hundred kilometers further south is the Hope Oasis.

If the enemy came from the south, they would first have to pass through the oasis and the desert.

Nowadays, the oasis economy is very active and traffic is busy. A large group of enemies cannot silently cross the desert and oasis to attack the City of the Goddess of Beauty from the south.

Attacking along the river is also impossible. The defense of the Donghe is the top priority. Some river sections even require manpower to pull boats across. A large group of enemies attacking along the river is completely a dream.

The only direction that can silently attack is the Falling Longhu in the west. The Falling Longhu is several hundred kilometers wide, like a vast ocean. It is too easy to find a direction to drill in.

Of course, Ang wouldn't analyze so much. He looked this way mainly because Tree Man Na Na Geer was also on guard this way.

Just at this moment, Ang sensed Andongni's urgent call in his soul: "My lord, my lord, the information I received is that the consumption of forage by the Flying Long Qishi Order has dropped sharply recently. I suspect they have set out. I don't know if the target is me or you. Please tell Lord Nai Ge to increase his vigilance."

Ang replied: "It's me. I see flying dragons."

I saw that on the surface of the Falling Longhu, a black mass of flying dragons was almost pressing against the water surface, pressing toward the direction of the City of the Goddess of Beauty.

The Flying Long Qishi Order, the fifth-ranked aerial knight order in the plane, has a total of only one thousand. Their mounts are very common flying dragons, a type of low-level dragon beast.

However, although they are low-level dragon beasts, the flying dragons have a body length of six meters and a wingspan of eight meters, easily carrying fully armed knights for long-distance raids.

Unlike ordinary horses, horses have to stop and rest after running dozens of kilometers. Flying dragons don't need to. They can fly thousands of kilometers in one breath, can breathe fireballs, can tear enemies apart, and even if they fall to the ground, they are behemoths with a body length of six or seven meters.

When the number of such behemoths reaches one thousand, flying like clouds, it is a black mass.

Compared with such flying dragon knights, the flying wing knights encountered at the beginning were simply pediatric. Although the number was similar, the combat power was completely different.

Although the combat power of the Flying Long Qishi Order is strong, in the ranking of aerial knight orders, they can only rank fifth because the top four are even stronger.

For example, the first-ranked Dragon Legion, the second-ranked Star Mage Group, the third-ranked Two-Headed Chimera Knight Order, and the fourth-ranked Dwarf Griffin Knight Order.

The Flying Long Qishi Order belongs to the Light Church and is commanded by Gu Li Guli Guli Anni himself. Obviously, after being rejected at the Plane Security Conference, Gu Li Guli Guli Anni decided to execute the motion to expel the Abyss Nomads himself.

The Plane Security Conference is a regular meeting to coordinate major forces in the plane. However, if one party does not abide by the agreement and insists on doing it hard...

Then, unless the other parties directly send troops to intervene, they can only scold them at the next meeting.

In the Security Conference, Ang has four allies who will help him scold people when the time comes. But now he needs to wipe out these flying dragon knights first. ===== CHAPTER 302 =====

In the security meeting, Ang has four allies who will help him curse others when the time comes, but for now, he needs to dispose of these wyvern knights first.
