Chapter 7 The Fruit of the Tree of Life
Humans, elves, dwarves, and the original source of bloodlines are the same. Their birthplaces were all before the ancient times, and the plains without forests on the initial continent. This is also the reason why the three tribes can freely intermarry and give birth to offspring naturally. This is because although their lifespan and talent are different, they are the same in the deepest depths.
Just as humans have many races, dwarves have several major tribes, and elves also have many branches, and the largest branch is the Far Nansen Elf.
The holy object of the Far Nansen Elf clan is the [Tree of Life]. In folk legends, the Tree of Life is the first tree in the world. It has experienced the irrigation of the river of destiny and bathed in the light of the initial fire. Its leaves contain the power to resurrect all things and cure all diseases. Its fruits can make people return to youth, become strong, and even extend the lifespan of the dying person.
Of course, these are all legends, and some things are not real. Joshua knew that the Tree of Life actually has no fruit. The so-called fruit is actually the newly drawn buds of the Tree of Life every year, which contain a lot of pure vitality. Eating it can strengthen physical fitness and also obtain a supernatural ability of [non-invasion of all diseases].
And the tree of life is not just one. Every large gathering place of forest elves will have a tree of life. However, only the huge tree nearly a thousand meters high in the Eternal Lake far south is the holy tree that everyone is celebrating.
When he arrived at the yard of Beppu, Joshua saw the messenger who brought the fruits.
This messenger is a huge bird with a green color.
Unlike ordinary carrier pigeons, Zhang Yi, a raptor specially trained by elves, is three meters long. He is very strong, comparable to an ordinary black iron warrior, and has the intelligence similar to a child. They fly very fast and can maintain their physical strength with magic elements. They only need to eat once a month and have long endurance, which is simply a perfect messenger.
On the feet of the messenger, there was a small bag with elf patterns hanging. It stood quietly on the branches of the tree in the yard. It was not until Joshua came over that he turned his eyes, as if he had identified his target.
It originally wanted to get up, fly closer, and hand over the things it carried to the man, but when it saw Joshua and looked straight into his eyes, a terrible pressure suddenly hit the bird's spirit, making it soft all over, and it couldn't even grasp the branches and fell down.
The warrior's aura of fear has now evolved into an attack similar to a mental shock.
Just as the Fengying Owl was stiff all over and was about to fall to the ground, he reached out with one hand and grabbed its wings. Joshua took off the wrap on his legs, then straightened it and placed it on the ground.
The faithful Feng Xiao was still stiff, like a statue, and Joshua had already opened the small package.
Like other storage packages, this package solidifies the spells of reducing power and weight reduction, with two beautifully decorated boxes and a letter.
Joshua took out the letter first.
This letter was not sent by Clayel. The elf druid is still sowing the sun vine in other places in the Northland. This was written by the Wind Song clan where she was located after receiving the news. The general meaning is that they already knew what Clayel had encountered in the Northland. As Clayel's relatives and friends and descendants, they were very grateful to Joshua for what he did.
They expressed regret for Joshua's excessive life loss, but the elves were absolutely generous to their friends. In order to repay Joshua's kindness, they were willing to give two fruits of the tree of life to express their gratitude.
In addition, they also prepared other gifts, but this was not delivered by a messenger. The subsequent team has already set off and is expected to arrive in a while.
"…It's been almost a month, and I've been healing myself."
After reading it, he sighed slightly. Qiao Xiuya knew that not everyone was like him, with the support of the Sky Blue Pearl. Most people lost their vitality and basically looked like they had not yet grown old. After a month of cultivation, his white hair almost returned to black. It was estimated that in just a few more weeks, he would be able to fully recover.
After patting Xinfeng Owl's head, a gentle force dissolved the stiffness in the bird's body, allowing it to move again, but what made Joshua embarrassed was that after the bird recovered its mobility, it immediately took off quickly like a escaping ghost. In a blink of an eye, it entered the high altitude and quickly flew towards the south.
He hasn't written a reply yet.
The warriors were not unable to stop a mere bird, but they took action for a mere bird. They were too serious. After shaking their heads with a smile, Joshua returned to Beppu with the package.
From the window on the second floor of Beppu, you can see Ying holding a brush with annoyed face, giving the sleeping black bristles. However, after paying attention to Joshua's gaze, Ying looked up and smiled, waved her hands to say hello, and the warrior nodded and waved her hand to respond.
In the study, Rin was looking at a report seriously, biting the tip of the pen. After pondering for a while, he raised his pen to comment on a paragraph of text, and then continued to process the next document.
"It's really a lot easier."
With emotion, he returned to his room, Joshua took out the two exquisite boxes from the package, and without hesitation, he opened them directly.
The magic runes flowed like water. As the box opened, the spell attached to it was removed. Suddenly, a strong breath of life turned into a breeze, blowing through the room, making people feel deep in the jungle and experiencing the thriving breath of nature. Joshua took a deep breath of the air that suddenly became fresh. Even with his strength, he couldn't help but feel his energy and felt much more comfortable.
This beautifully decorated medium-sized box was opened and placed in it was a green tree bud, but the tree bud was extremely huge, as big as a fist, with a green luster flowing on it, layer by layer of life spilling over, and even forming circular ripples visible to the naked eye, like a treasure.
Since he had eaten the fruit of life several times in his previous life, Joshua has no idea of appreciating it now. He simply picked it up, bit it, and after chewing it a few times, he swallowed it. Suddenly, a rich vitality of life spread everywhere, and a warm current surged from Joshua's stomach to his whole body. The turbulent current repaired many very slight damage in the warrior's body, and Joshua's hair, which was still spotted on his head, fell all at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then new thick black hair grew.
However, that's all. Joshua's golden-level body was already nearly perfect and had already reached the point where all diseases were invincible. Some naturally generated toxins had no effect on him. The fruits of the ordinary tree of life would at most improve him a little attribute and heal the hidden wounds in his body. Only the buds on the eternal holy tree could significantly improve him.
However, the tree of life has grown slowly and almost never falls leaves. If you want them, especially the holy tree, to grow new buds, you don’t know how long it takes to wait. This is a legendary thing that you can’t buy with no amount of money.
“…The taste is a little better than in the previous life, the taste is mountain spring, a little sweet.”
After eating this life fruit, Joshua knew it was enough. His body was full of vitality now, and he even had a urge to vent his hands. The second life fruit had no effect on him, unless the warrior was injured in the future and needed to replenish his vitality.
However, it seemed that because of the energy in the body overflowing, Joshua felt that the sky-blue beads hanging on his chest were slowly heating up.
The warrior took out the pendant of the Sky Blue Orb from his chest. He carefully watched the blue crystal that was emitting light. The fire in it no longer emitted a dazzling light, but it still burned slowly in the crystal. The sacred runes flowed around, exuding reassuring power.
Now, due to the overflow of Joshua's power, it seems to be stimulated and also releases the pure glory of order.
"Who is the sage who left the Sky Blue Pearl and the Double Blade of Order..."
Looking at the inherited crystal that could take him into the state of the Soul-Fired King, Joshua murmured to himself, and then fell into deep thought.
Evil gods, sages, these are all things he has never heard of in his previous life. Of course, according to his speculation, these should be characters and contents that will appear in the fifth edition. Regardless of whether human resistance is successful or failure, the evil god in the void will appear only after the invasion of the abyss is over.
By that time, there will be a war between many legendary powerful men, gods and evil gods, and the information of the lost sages should have been unveiled at that time.
It seems that even if I have experienced it once, I still don’t know many things. The real world is so vast that people can’t help but feel curious.
After sighing, Joshua laughed again. Even if he didn't know the information, he didn't know the information about the disputed continent in his previous life. Didn't he also become a legendary warrior? His advantage in this life is so great that he has no concern or fear about the future.
However, as soon as I recalled the invasion of the abyss, Joshua couldn't help but remember the final battle he had in Naya Fortress.
In my previous life, who betrayed them and gave myself a backstab on the battlefield between humans and demons?
Putting his hand on his abdomen was where he was pierced by the mercury blade in his previous life. Joshua's face was solemn and his eyes were cold. He seemed to recall the touch of ice-like metal piercing his body. Countless most resentful curses spread, instantly depriving all the power in his body.
That feeling of powerlessness and reluctance is really memorable and unforgettable.
He is actually more magnanimous than everyone thinks. This is the demeanor that the strong should have, but only the betrayer, the warrior will never forgive and will never tolerate it. Only death is their ending.
Since there is nothing big happening recently, it is better to start looking for the betrayer in the previous life from now on. There is a hint of cold curve on the corner of Joshua's mouth, and he recalls the details in his memory.
It is definitely not a comrade in the battle group. There will be a prompt between players to attack each other. The person who exposes a betrayal blow must be an indigenous person. At that time, there were not many indigenous people fighting with their indigenous person at Naya Fortress. Joshua believed that as long as one by one, he would catch this betrayer one day.
The sound of footsteps sounded from the stairs.
After stopping thinking for the moment, Joshua looked up and looked at the door.
Not long after, with the sound of the light girl's footsteps, the figure of the silver-haired girl appeared in front of him, and at this time, the warrior's eyes calmed down a little.
"Owner."
Firefly was still holding a brush in her hand, and she frowned slightly, as if she was a little confused: "That, the black situation seems a bit strange..."
