Chapter 208: Wake up from the confusion!
"I woke up from the distant darkness, and what greeted me was a world full of vitality - and eternal loneliness..."
The towering tree man Noredar Wakewind tells its story.
Maybe it has been a long time since I met someone with whom I could have a free conversation.
This tree man, who has lived for who knows how many years, seems to be a bit talkative.
It chatters on and on, weaving in a microcosm of thousands of years of history of this land.
It has been in the company of orcs, and also had a not-so-friendly period with the elves.
There have been bloody killings, and there have also been lonely walks...
"Sometimes, when you are still awake, the world is peaceful, and the birds and animals are running and jumping around..."
"Some naughty little ones would hide nuts and stuff on me."
Noredar Awakening Wind spoke slowly to the Moon Owl on his body.
It's hard to tell whether the sound of it is one of nostalgia or some other emotion.
For a tree man who has lived for who knows how many years, will all of this be filled ?
"And when you wake from your sleep - oh, it is the howling frost, it takes everything away, leaving only the cold white..."
Noredar Wakewind slowly raised its head, its broad, abstract face vaguely revealing some complex emotions.
"After all, the emotions of tree people are not as passionate as those of humans, but I think now I should be more like a human..."
Noredar Wakewind led Moon Owl deeper into the forest.
The trees in front of it became as smooth as butter cut by a rolling knife.
The forest seemed to have really become a blue wave, and the tree people were the ships shuttling through it.
This is somewhat similar to Yi Chun's walking through the forest. Perhaps the druid was inspired by the natural instinct of the tree man.
"Gu..."
Moon Owl responded from time to time.
Compared to wild beasts, the intelligent form of tree people is easier to communicate with.
Not long after, with Noredar Awakening Wind's chattering, it brought Yi Chun to a lake.
Yi Chun was not sure whether this was the center of the entire forest .
However, after carefully looking at certain traces on the edge of the lake.
Yi Chun felt that he roughly knew where this place was.
He could imagine that, in the distant past, countless years ago, there once grew a towering tree here.
Later, for some unknown reason, it suddenly came alive.
It pulled its roots out of the earth and thus gained the ability to walk on the earth.
And where it once was deeply stationed, a huge hole that is difficult to fill is left behind.
Day after day, year after year, the accumulated rainwater or the water surging from underground undercurrents turned this place into a lake.
“This is where I grew up…”
“I woke up from here with a new lease of life.”
Noredar Wakewind stared at the lake in front of him and said dully.
"Now, I think it's time to wake up my sleeping kin."
"They call me a tree man, but I think they see me more like a tree with human features, rather than a human with a tree-like body..."
"I think I need your help - nature's ally..."
Noredar Awakening Wind placed Yi Chun in front of him and said...
…
…
For a druid, it is not a difficult task to briefly animate a tree man.
But summoning a tree man permanently is not that easy.
Fortunately, with the help of the power of Noredar Awakening Wind, the difficulty of activation is greatly reduced.
Yi Chun looked at the towering tree in front of him. He estimated that the tree was at least hundreds of years old.
Judging from the natural power contained in the other party's body, it should not be a fast-growing tree species.
"I once fought a demon lord. I defeated him and sent him back into the abyss."
"But it also left a long-lasting mark on me. Even now, the burning heat in my soul has not been completely extinguished..."
"I didn't take it seriously at first, thinking it was just a weak counterattack from the devil."
"Now it seems that I should have given it a heavy blow..."
"The burning darkness caused me to fail in my subsequent attempts to awaken my fellow tribesmen. The pollution of the abyss is more serious than I imagined ..."
"My fellow tribesmen who were awakened by me have become violent and evil. They have lost the purest nature..."
The whispers of Noredar Awakening Wind still echoed in Yi Chun's ears .
Wild dungeons do not necessarily focus on fighting of strength.
Just like for Yi Chun at this moment, he doesn't need to care about the grievances between tree people and humans.
Just complete the summoning of treemen as much as possible within 10 natural days.
but……
The rewards given by the Crazy prefix are too many...
Noredar Awakening Wind has completed most of the work, and all Yi Chun has to do is awaken the soul of the tree man.
In principle, this is the most difficult.
In actual operation, it is not that troublesome.
Like the mystery of the birth of life, nature is infinite.
But there is no need to elaborate on the instinctive reproduction between life...
After sensing the life state of the tree in front of him, Yi Chun tried to awaken it with his own will...
Nature is stretching out, everything is silent...
The sounds of birds and animals suddenly became distant and tiny.
In an instant, the light receded, and a chaotic and blurred world appeared in Yi Chun's perception...
That is the "vision" of a tree.
Even among many living creatures, even among intelligent life , not every life has a nervous system as developed and sophisticated as that of humans.
For plants, everything operates in an orderly manner in a confused and slow manner.
Therefore, as Yi Chun had thought before, he felt the "joy" of plants.
Perhaps it is not necessarily from the plant itself, but rather a spiritual evolution based on his cognition and attitude towards all things.
Whether a plant can have emotions like joy, anger, sorrow, or happiness seems to be a philosophical question...
Being in this confused state, Yi Chun's thinking seemed to be affected to some extent.
However, when two unequal consciousnesses complete communication with each other.
Having a more superior superior consciousness will undoubtedly have a more profound impact on the subordinate consciousness.
Just like the influence of a son on his father, the lower consciousness will gradually develop towards the form of the higher consciousness.
This change is wonderful, and the sacredness and elegance it presents in the realm of life are no less than the gradual condensation of new life from an embryo.
Just like a sudden blink of an eye, the whole egg broke open, and a pale yellow chick appeared unexpectedly.
And in Yi Chun's perception, a new, wise soul just appeared!
Perhaps influenced by Yi Chun’s consciousness, it is not a blank canvas.
Instead, there are still some emotions that belong to human consciousness.
Joy, anger, greed...
From then on, it was no longer a pure and cold tree in nature.
It has its own desires, it longs for light and prosperity...
"You have successfully awakened a tree man. Current progress: 1/10."
"Please note that your act of awakening the tree man has been sensed by the human prophet Amat Xi Ze, and your relationship with the human kingdom has been downgraded to: hostile!"
There seemed to be information refreshing on the retina, but Yi Chun didn't pay too much attention to it.
At this time, Yi Chun, who had returned to his vision, looked at the big tree in front of him.
It was trembling slowly, and the outline of a human face was twisted on its torso.
New life, from now on...
