Chapter 2887: Planting Trees and Hunting Dragons

Xia De also agreed with her idea:

"Then I suggest you divine the chosen one ritual, not the first-priority candidate."

Luweiya closed her eyes and threw one of the coins directly into the air. The spinning coin began to show signs of rust at the highest point until it fell and scattered into ashes.

"Can just one coin divine the content of the chosen one ritual? I remember that the divination efficiency of this kind of coin shouldn't be so high, right?"

Xia De was very surprised, and Luweiya was equally surprised:

"I was just trying it out. I didn't expect... I'm not directly divining the content of the ritual, I'm divining how to obtain the complete ritual. The conclusion given by the divination is that the answer is in your book ."

This book was bought by Xia De at a charity auction under the recommendation of Professor Yuke Wood. It was written by an unknown folklorist and was not thick itself. Luweiya's divination pointed to this book, but did not point to specific chapters in the book. After all, divination is not omnipotent.

But this does not mean they need to analyze and speculate on all the content in this book. After all, the scattered poem fragments currently not only pointed out that the biggest characteristic of this chosen one was "having traveled through time," but also pointed out some needs of this ritual.

So, combined with the information passed on by the witches, the academy, and Yiluna, Luweiya quickly determined the target to be page 13 of this book:

"Creekwood Town is a town with a flourishing logging industry, so the local coming-of-age ceremony is also related to this. Boys born in the town do not take cutting down a tree that is thick and heavy enough as a sign of their sixteen-year-old adulthood. They need to choose the most suitable location themselves and plant the tree sapling they think is most suitable.

This reflects the awe and gratitude of the residents of Creekwood Town for the forest, and at the same time, this is also a means for local residents to pray for protection from the forest. Planting the sapling symbolizing adulthood in the forest, they themselves also become a part of the forest."

She finished reading this paragraph, which was not very long, and then said to Xia De:

"The content described in this paragraph is very straightforward, but if you think about its deeper meaning, there are actually other possibilities. But the core is 'planting trees,' which is absolutely correct. The core goal of this chosen one ritual should be planting trees."

"What I'm worried about is planting trees."

Xia De said in a low voice, and the purple-eyed girl raised her eyebrows:

"You're worried that Emilia will become a new World Tree?"

"Yes... Um? How do you know? Did I talk in my sleep?"

Xia De clearly remembered that he hadn't told anyone about this, and Luweiya looked at him with a smile:

"You never talk in your sleep, but Xia De, I've known you for a year. You are really too easy to read. You don't need mind reading or telepathy. Sometimes when I see your expression, I even know what you are thinking now... You are recalling the night you spent with Duoluoxi last night, trying to see if I really have this ability to understand you."

Xia De immediately held his head, and Luweiya laughed even more happily:

"I won't joke with you anymore. The chosen one of time will incarnate as the World Tree, which is not a thought I've had recently. We have known from the beginning that the existence of the World Tree stabilized the time of the material world. Now that we want to re-stabilize time, of course, we need a new World Tree."

"But I don't want Emilia to become a tree, unless it's a situation where although it's called a tree, it's actually just a title."

Xia De shook his head and touched the cat:

"I have great expectations for Emilia, but that doesn't mean I want to push her toward that kind of ending. And I have a premonition that if she finally faces this kind of choice, Emilia will definitely take the initiative to incarnate as the World Tree."

"Yes, that's what that silly girl would do. She would think this is for you."

Luweiya said, but she wasn't worried at all:

"Everything is still your guess, and I had a strange dream a few days ago. Maybe this can make you feel at ease. The content of the chosen one ritual of time, although it may be that the chosen one incarnates as the World Tree, is it also possible that it just lets the chosen one plant a tree sapling that can stabilize time? If there's really no other way, then let them go up themselves."

Xia De thought for a while:

"So this ritual is to resurrect the dead World Tree? How come I feel that this is even more difficult than letting Emilia do it herself?"

"No, no, sometimes your train of thought is really strange."

Luweiya shook her right hand. Although the vein patterns on the back of her hand had disappeared, Xia De also understood her meaning:

"The meaning of the Time War is actually to collect the power of other candidates and finally turn this power into seeds to grow saplings?"

Luweiya then nodded:

"This sounds at least more realistic than 'Emilia becoming an ancient god' or 'resurrecting an ancient god.' So my guess is that no matter who wins, they must find a way to let this power take root and sprout in the Weisi Forest. The moment the new sapling is born, the chosen one of time will appear."

This sounds indeed more in line with reality than Xia De's idea:

"Then what exactly should we do? I mean planting a small tree."

Luweiya then picked up the second coin, but this time the coin fell normally after flying to the highest point. There was no answer to this question for the time being.

Although all parties were making preparations, the people living in the forest city didn't feel that this Wednesday was any different from the past. The sun rose from the east as usual and then fell into the distance of the forest in the west. The people who went out to forage like ants also returned home after going out.

When night fell, even the "First Snow Concert" had completed all the arrangements for the second day, and the city fell into silence in the thick night.

From the morning, today's weather was not very good, just like Margaret's mood. And when dark clouds covered the moon and stars, this city located in the center of the forest seemed even more like it had fallen into eternal tranquility.

Deep in the dense forest in the east of the city, three expressionless great witches and Xia De surrounded the small tomb. The surface of the large tree entwined by tree roots cracked, and inside the crack was a corpse of an old man who looked as if he had just passed away not long ago.

The elf retreated to the side of the little unicorn behind Xia De at this time. She was mentally exhausted and hugged the neck of the pure white little beast to rest, not caring what Xia De would do next.

"Then let's begin."

Xia De said, so the little witch of the earth, Vannisha, raised her hand. With the slight tremor of the ground, the roots entwining the tree began to wriggle actively. The roots that were originally tightly entwined on the tree trunk underground finally showed signs of loosening, so taking advantage of this opportunity, Miss Jia Lin Na and Xierweiya narrowed their eyes, and the corpse flew out of the crack in the tree trunk out of thin air.

Due to the influence of gravity, the limbs of the corpse hung downward. Xia De said sorry in his heart, and his right hand pulled out a scarlet great sword from the air.

At the same time that the witches gave up control of the corpse and let it fall naturally, the sword light in the cave seemed to have turned into real bright red moonlight, and this sword hit the neck of the corpse.

Boom~

Above the low hill, a burst of rumbling thunder came from the depths of the dark clouds. While the cold night wind traveled through the forest, in the deepest part of the dark clouds, a huge and twisted dragon beast head probed out.

Although it didn't know why it was lured here, and although it didn't know what place was below, it still defied the order and opened its mouth in infinite anger, and a beam of pitch-black thunder was spat out from the dragon's mouth.

That beam of thunder broke through the silent night and hit the small hill below. So amidst the infinite light and heat, a mushroom cloud rose. In the loud noise, the small hill and everything around it were razed to the ground, but before the dust settled, fireworks symbolizing the official start of the action bloomed from the forest in the distance.

A shrill whistle sounded from the forest below. The melody of the sage-level relic 【Griffin Hunting Flute】 made the black dragon hiding in the clouds fall directly. That ear-piercing sound made its body out of control, and the huge body even trembled uncontrollably during the fall.

But it was not a real griffin after all. Before truly falling into the forest sea, this flesh-deformed behemoth controlled its body and soared into the sky again, but that "Blade of the Firmament" falling from the starry sky came head-on.

On the surface of the mutated body, thick white fog formed a chaotic time flow to protect it. The giant sword composed of starlight shifted its trajectory under the action of time, but the attack of the Paladin was not intended to kill with one blow.

At the same time the white fog appeared, the golden light flow rippling from the ground erupted toward the sky. The divine art ritual array composed of hundreds of devout ring warlocks of the Dawn Church made the holy emblem of 【Mr. Dawn】 clearly appear above the forest, and then this ritual to stabilize time rapidly reduced the white fog around the dragon beast.

The monster, realizing that the situation was not right, avoided the hundreds of wonder attacks coming from the ground and spread its wings to fly high, wanting to stay away from this place, but the thirteenth-tier - Behemoth Hunter - Mr. Bill Kamola of the Nature Church, who had been hiding in the depths of the clouds, revealed his own life ring.

This thirteenth-tier warlock who had supported Moon Bay had not been arranged to come to Weisi Forest to perform the mission, but in order to deal with this dragon beast, he arrived locally in the evening, so he was in the form of an adult now.

In fact, the church, which attached great importance to this "hunting operation," did not arrange for any thirteenth-tier in the form of a child to participate in the operation.

"Wonder - Dragon Hunting Net!"

Mr. Kamola reached out to the area below, so a brass-colored giant net that covered the entire forest area in the east of Weisi Forest spread out, and then shrouded the entire forest area. The dragon beast's body hit the giant net fiercely, but the top-level divine art that was most restraining to it, which was cast by the thirteenth tier to the limit, could not be broken just by hitting it. ===== CHAPTER 2888 =====
