"Life energy!" The moment he entered the room, Leo didn't need to carefully identify it, and he was already sure that the heart came from the tree man created by the spirit of nature, and it was probably an ancient tree man.

The Earth Federation once possessed an ancient tree heart for a period of time and conducted specialized research on it. At that time, Leo's biochemical army served as defense for the experimental base and also performed escorts when the heart was transferred.

Task.

Due to the convenience of his position, Leo once came into contact with the heart of the ancient tree man at a very close distance. It was precisely because of that contact that he felt the breath of life, and for the first time he felt the pulse of his own life.

, begin to recognize the existence of oneself.

From a certain point of view, the reason why Leo was able to develop self-awareness in the future was mainly due to the impact of life spiritual energy from the heart of the ancient tree people, so he had a very strong feeling for this specific spiritual energy.

Different from the treant weapons later created by the spirit of nature, the original ancient treant was a creature created by the spirit of nature. Just because he didn't like it, he finally gave up this life template and re-created other satisfactory lives.

Although ancient tree people are also classified as tree weapons and are regarded as the generals of tree weapons, they are not tree weapons and are real life forms, so the heart has no role in recording data.

Perhaps it is because the Ancient Tree Man was the first life created by the spirit of nature, so the spirit of nature endowed this life with a very special spiritual energy, which is also a unique spiritual energy in the universe.

It's called life energy.

All advanced civilizations in the universe have secretly conducted research on life spiritual energy, but without any exception, there has been no results. The only thing that is certain is that life spiritual energy has a strong effect in extending life span and promoting growth.

This is why the life of the Ancient Tree Man can exceed that of many Omega-level advanced life forms. Even if it falls into a black hole, as long as there are still some remains containing life spiritual energy, it can still be resurrected.

This also makes it possible that even though the Ancient Tree Man is not an Omega-level advanced life form, its life form is not much different from that of an Omega-level advanced life form.

However, what puzzled Leo was the tree man's heart at the top of the room, because he felt that the life energy in this heart was too weak, and it was not as vast and broad as the ancient tree man. It seemed that this ancient tree man was a human being.

Newborns are normal.

But the problem is that the spirit of nature did not give them the ability to reproduce when they created the ancient trees, so there is always a constant number of ancient trees in the universe.

However, the current tree man heart obviously comes from a dead tree man. The life energy in the heart is very weak compared to the ancient tree man. This is obviously contrary to the condition of the ancient tree man itself.

Just when Leo's attention fell on the tree man's heart, the others were also attracted by the tree man's heart, because after entering this room, they immediately felt the changes in their bodies, mental fatigue and physical fatigue.

The pain, and even some old wounds, are healing slowly.

"This belongs to the tribe and should not be controlled by you!" After sensing the power of the tree man's heart, Mira mentioned the old matter again.

The old wizard smiled, and did not refute Mira's words, nor did he have any intention of arguing. Instead, he motioned for everyone to sit wherever they wanted, and then asked others to step back, and then said to Leo: "Mr. Leo, I want to ask you something.

Does the employment agreement with the royal family still exist?”

"Of course." Leo said without thinking, "I will still do my best to find the Poseidon artifact here, then give it to Sean, and then take the reward I deserve from him."

Hearing Leo's words, Su frowned, but quickly returned to a nonchalant look.

After the old wizard received a positive reply, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and smiled on his face. However, his smile did not last long and was lost by Leo's added words.

I only heard Leo continue to say: "My reward is all of Earl Drake's wizard inheritance. Please remember that it is all. If I don't get what I want, then Sean will be equivalent to breaking the contract. He

Not only will he not get the Poseidon Artifact, but he will also need to compensate for my losses, otherwise I will take some necessary measures to let him understand that not everyone can be easily plotted."

The smile on the old wizard's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a solemn look. It was obvious that Leo's answer forced him into the corner. Although Leo said it was Sean, he was actually talking about it.

He came here as a scheming person.

It is not difficult for anyone with a discerning eye to see that Earl Drake's inheritance must be in the hands of the old wizard. If he does not take out this inheritance and give it to Leo as a reward, then Leo can not only use this as an excuse to cancel the

The previous employment agreement could even hold Sean accountable.

Although Sean himself is not a very important figure, he is a core member of the Donald family and has been working hard to restore the royal family to its former glory. He even recovered the Poseidon Scepter and returned it to the royal family.

of.

If Sean is abandoned as an abandoned son this time, then I'm afraid the entire Donald family will reconsider their relationship with the royal family.

In today's era when the power of the royal family is gradually weakening, the Donald family is one of the few aristocratic families that is extremely loyal to the royal family and carefully helps the royal family. They are also the core royal faction.

If the Donald family withdraws from the prince's camp because of Sean's incident, it will definitely deal a blow to the current trend of the royal family's gradual rise in prestige and power.

What's more serious is the reaction of other royalist families to this incident. They see that the most loyal Donald family is treated in this way, so how will these families be treated when the royal family encounters some difficulties?

A large number of thoughts suddenly appeared in the old wizard's mind, and he was caught up in the judgment of gains and losses. In the eyes of others, the old wizard's silence was more like a kind of pressure, a kind of mental pressure on Leo.

.

However, Leo seemed very relaxed, looking around the room, very leisurely.

After a while, the old wizard seemed to have figured it out. He sighed softly and said: "I can hand over Earl Drake's inheritance to you according to the agreement, so I also hope that you can actually hand over the artifact according to the employment agreement.

Take back."

Looking at the old wizard's compromising look, Leo didn't feel too happy, because it was obvious that the value of Earl Drake's inheritance was not as great as he expected. Otherwise, how could a wizard pay for something?

The unusable divine artifact abandons the legacy of the tower wizard.

"Of course, as long as I deserve a lot of reward, I will naturally abide by the agreement." Leo suppressed the slight dissatisfaction in his heart, then looked at the old wizard very seriously and said, "But before that,

I hope you can tell me truthfully, what is going on here? And where is the Poseidon artifact?"

As Leo's questioning ended, the expressions of other people around him became more focused. They were also curious about the changes in this place and the abyss.

The old wizard was silent for a moment, and finally nodded. At Leo's request, he explained the origin of Death Valley and what happened here in detail. During the telling process, Leo used some questioning techniques to

It was confirmed that what the old wizard said was not just fabricated.

As Mira had suspected before, Death Valley was indeed formed from the fragments of the Emerald Dream.

When wizards and shamans divided the Emerald Dream, although the wizards were prepared to capture every fragment of the Emerald Dream as much as possible, there were still some that slipped through the net, and these fragments fell to various parts of the world of Velen.

place.

Most of these fragments will be assimilated by the world of Velen, and only a few fragments with special powers will be preserved. The power that allows the fragments to be preserved and developed may come from the disappeared Lord of Nature, or it may

It comes from the abyss.

The Tower Wizard has been looking for such fragments of the Emerald Dream ever since, either destroying them or taking them into use, such as the subspace location left by the Tower Wizard that Leo saw in Vinaya Port.

The surface is just a fragment of the Emerald Dream.

Under normal circumstances, the fragment of the Emerald Dream in Death Valley would be destroyed because it was contaminated with the power of the abyss. However, when the Tower Wizard came to find it, they found that there were already people living in this fragment, and

They also discovered that these people were not from the world of Velen, and they also had a certain resistance to the power of the abyss.

These discoveries made the Tower Wizard curious, so they gave up their original plan and instead left Death Valley, and built the Wizard Tower in Death Valley to allow them to study the mysteries of the abyss.

After that, things were quiet for many years. The first batch of people who settled in Death Valley had died. The wizard specially found some men and women from outside to allow these people to reproduce, because the wizard felt that these people were resistant to the governance of death.

It should be related to their physique, so as long as their bloodline is maintained, this physique can always be preserved.

In order to keep the secret of Death Valley, they also arranged for people to join the Kingdom of England and become nobles of the Kingdom of England. They also obtained Josh County as their territory, which was the original Earl of Josh.

Count Josh specially built Fort Josh, and the tower wizard arranged the Turing root, which not only sealed Death Valley and prevented the power of Death Valley from spreading to the world of Velen, but also opened up a road from Fort Josh to Death Valley.

The channel, through the convenience of Earl Josh, transports some daily necessities from the outside world to the people of Death Valley.

During this period, not everyone in the Tower Wizard stayed in Death Valley. Every once in a while, they would send a Tower Wizard to sit in Death Valley and continue research on the abyss.

Everything was very peaceful originally. If there were no accidents, Death Valley would maintain this balanced state for a long time until the tower wizard disappeared.

However, until a tower wizard was no longer satisfied with studying the power of the abyss and the people in Death Valley, he suddenly had a whim and wanted to enter the abyss to see what the abyss looked like.

In order to be able to open the abyss rift, this tower wizard even secretly created the massacre of Fort Josh, using a large number of life sacrifices to temporarily suppress the power of the Turing root in Fort Josh.

No one knows whether this tower wizard actually entered the abyss in the end, but what is known is that this wizard conducted some experiments on the residents of Death Valley for a long time and created werewolves, vampires and eagles.

There are three ethnic groups of people.

When the time to take over the garrison was about to come, the tower wizard disappeared. When other tower wizards noticed something was wrong and rushed over, they could no longer find the tower wizard, and Death Valley also

It has become unrecognizable, and the worst thing is that there is an abyss crack in Death Valley.

The Tower Wizard managed to temporarily seal the rift, and then hunted down the Tower Wizard based on the remaining traces of the Tower Wizard.

The reason why they pursue this tower wizard so persistently is not because they hate the tower wizard, but because they are worried that his colleague has uncontrollable abyss items in hand. They have witnessed the destruction of the Emerald Dream.

They are very aware of the dangers of the power of the abyss, and they are very worried that the world of Velen will become the next Emerald Dream.

However, not all of them were chasing that colleague. They still stayed alone to sit in Death Valley, and that person was Earl Drake.

Earl Drake has been sitting in Death Valley, waiting for his companions, but what he didn't expect was that his companions never showed up again, and the temporary seal built by the tower wizard had a loophole, and the abyss rift reappeared.

In order to seal the rift again, Earl Drake thought of using the Poseidon artifact passed down from generation to generation by the British royal family.

However, at that time, the British royal family only had the Poseidon Scepter in their hands. Naturally, they were not willing to hand it over to Drake, who was not yet an earl at the time. However, they thought of a compromise, that is, they told the whereabouts of another Poseidon artifact.

Give it to Drake and let him get it himself, but Drake must pay a certain price in exchange for this news, and this price is to help the Kingdom of Inge seize maritime hegemony from the Kingdom of Sigmar.

Drake agreed to this condition, and in the following years, he fought on the sea as a pirate captain, attacking and destroying the routes of the Kingdom of Sigmar, gradually weakening the maritime power of the Kingdom of Sigmar, and finally helped in the decisive battle.

The Kingdom of Inge eliminated the Kingdom of Sigmar's invincible fleet, fulfilled its promise, and obtained the whereabouts of the Poseidon artifact.

After that, no one knew how Earl Drake found the Poseidon artifact. They only knew that he found the artifact and brought it back to the Kingdom of England.
