Chapter 568(1/4)
Colorful balls of light hang on the branches of the world tree, swaying gently.
Each light ball is reincarnated on a green shank, with a leaf-like structure at the end like a calyx, which really looks like the fruit of a World Tree.
Looking at this mysterious light ball, Natsume was curious.
He used a [Light Body Technique] to jump off the red dragon's back and landed directly onto the trunk.
After getting closer, Natsume also saw it more clearly.
This is definitely not the light cocoon that gave birth to the player and the primitive elves, because it is too small.
These "fruits" are probably as big as basketballs. They carry a little magical fluctuations under the halo, and also emit a strange fragrance.
When Natsume smelled this scent, she suddenly felt her whole body refreshed.
At the same time, he found that the magic power in his body was circulating smoother, and even after he meditated for two hours in the morning, the increasingly dull magic circuit in his body became sensitive again.
"What is this? The fragrance emitted can help me to relieve the magic power in my body!"
Natsume said in surprise.
The magic system of "Elf Kingdom" is very real. Every player has a magic circuit and a magic pool in his body. The players' daily meditation is to expand their magic pool and strengthen the magic circuit.
However, as you meditate, the magic power in the player's body will become more and more restless.
Although this restlessness will not cause a backlash of magic power, or interfere with spell release, when the magic power reaches a limit, it will in turn suppress the activity of the magic circuit and greatly reduce the exercise effect.
In other words, the limit of meditation exercises on that day was reached.
If you have to wait for the magic to cool down, you will have to wait for a day.
This is why even though players can only exercise for up to two hours a day after meditation.
If Natsume understands it correctly, the fragrance emitted by this strange light ball may help players extend their exercise time!
What exactly is this?
It's simply a magical tool for assisting exercise!
Natsume looked surprised.
Although he has reached the level of the year, daily meditation is still effective.
Even if meditation cannot make a qualitative leap in his power or advance to a higher level, it can strengthen his magic pool bit by bit, weakly enhance his magic power, and increase his tolerance for magic backlash.
Suddenly, Natsume became extremely curious about the light ball.
After thinking for a moment, he tentatively touched it.
It's very warm when you buy it.
The light ball is not illusory, but seems to be some kind of entity, but it is completely different from the general touch.
That kind of feel is like holding a pole of a magnet to approach the same pole of another magnet.
It has a slippery repulsion, but at the same time it is not particularly strong.
This feeling is pretty good.
Natsume felt that if he put a little force on his back, this "light ball" might be deformed by him.
But he didn't do that.
He was not sure what this was, and he was afraid that his rashness would lead to adverse consequences.
You know, the place where he is standing is the canopy of the World Tree, and the World Tree is the original body of the goddess Eve in the setting of "The Kingdom of the Elf".
Everything related to the goddess must be cautious.
The goddess is not a background board, but a real NPC.
Although she appears less and less often in the plot as the number of players increases, old players all know this.
After thinking about it, Natsume simply performed an identification technique.
And as he imagined, the information returned was a series of question marks.
And what this means is that Natsume, who has spent four years in the game, can't be clearer.
Or, the identification target level is higher than that of yourself.
Or, the identification target is protected by some powerful existence.
This is the World Tree, and Natsume has not sensed a very powerful force from the light ball, so it must be the latter.
This light ball... is protected by the goddess!
In just a moment, he extinguished the thought that he had just developed in his heart and thought of how to pick these "fruits".
However, after calming down, Natsume also understood that things like this that grew from the world tree were probably not damaged if he had let him put the most powerful Six-ring magic he had mastered here.
It is probably impossible to pick it off or something.
The leaves in the world cannot be picked, and it is not that no one has tried it.
Although the people who tested the test ended up making the Elf NPC feel bad...
The favor system of "Elf Kingdom" is simply too strict. The funny players will not end up in the end. Just the punishment for the mall's exchange price can make people drink a pot.
Natsume naturally didn't plan to die.
"If this is really a fruit, then there must be a day of ripening, right? Or... Is it something hidden plot I encountered?"
He murmured to himself.
After looking around, Natsume recorded the location here and planned to leave.
The light ball could not escape, and he had already planned to come and check the situation every few days in the future.
However, Natsume has a relatively honest personality, but the red dragon he raised in a certain dog is different.
That strange fragrance attracts not only Natsume, but also the Red Dragon Lelia.
I saw the little guy sniffing a few times, drooling, then "RUA" happily, then pounced on Natsume's stunned gaze, swallowing the ball of light in one mouthful...
Swallow... swallow...
Natsume was stunned.
The red dragon ate the light ball, but the "handle" was still connected to the branches, so it shook its head vigorously, as if it was planning to bite the light ball fruit completely.
Natsume:...
He was horrified.
You know, he just confirmed that this light ball was protected by a goddess.
Although the red dragon is not very powerful, if you really make something wrong, it will be exciting.
He also wants to apply for the chief priest of the temple.
If this reduces the goddess' favorability, it will be GG!
Natsume did not hesitate and quickly stopped his large "Red Dog":
"Lelia, can't eat it, spit it out soon!"
"Aowoo~!"
The red dragon shook his head.
"If you don't vomit it out, I won't give you food! This is the goddess's body, please be careful."
Natsume said again.
When he heard the words "not giving food" and "goddess", the Red Dragon's movements were slightly over.
The little guy hesitated for a moment before he reluctantly spitting out the swallowed ball of light, and then flew to Natsume with his tail hanging down like a bullied puppy, rubbing against his contract partner's thigh while making a whimper.
Natsume was so amused and crying.
"Stop being spoiled, go back and prepare something for you."
He shook his head and smiled.
The red dragon became happy only then.
At this time, Natsume looked at the ball of light that the little guy had just swallowed.
This is a light blue light ball.
The power of the red dragon is indeed not enough to damage these light groups protected by the power of the goddess, and this light group is also intact.
I just walked in the little guy's mouth and belly, and its image didn't look very wonderful.
The constantly dripping sticky saliva and gastric juice are not mentioned yet, but they also emit a strange smell, and there are also a few undiluted food residues hanging.
Natsume:...
He hesitated for a moment, then walked forward, recited the spell of [Cleaning Technique], and prepared to clean it up.
The World Tree is the essence of the goddess.
Although no one knows what the goddess' favorability judgment mechanism is, according to the NPC system in "The Elf Kingdom", Natsume puts his heart in it and feels that it is a bit unreasonable if he just left like this.
