Seeing this, everyone couldn't help but laugh.
It is indeed a very docile big guy.
As he laughed, Rogge turned his gaze to the giant tree house, and saw a hunched man in a tight green robe slowly walking down the stairs.
"Welcome to Giant Tree Island, Captain Roger."
A slightly old but very gentle voice reached everyone's ears.
"Grandma Sangla."
Diya bowed slightly towards her.
"Roar."
Tuotuo also let out a soft cry, crawled down with his huge body, and placed his furry head in front of her.
"Hello, Granny Sangla."
Rogge nodded slightly at her, and everyone behind him also greeted her.
"Eh?"
Only Iya, who was standing on Rogge's shoulder, scratched her head with a puzzled look on her face, as if she felt that Grandma Sangla in front of her was a little special.
"Go and play."
Grandma Sangla gently stroked the big head of the spiritual koala.
After getting her approval, the koala happily ran to the side and continued to sleep.
Grandma Sangla turned towards Rogge.
Her body was covered tightly by the green robe, and her face could not be seen.
However, her figure looked a little strange, as if there were some bulges on her shoulders and back.
"Captain Roger, I'm sure you must be wondering why I know your name and predicted your arrival."
Hear her words.
Roger nodded, but in fact he still had many doubts.
Naturally, he also used the power of the game to check the information of Grandma Sangla in front of him.
However, as expected, I got a bunch of question marks.
"This isn't a good place to have a conversation."
"plz follow me."
Grandma Sangla nodded slightly to Rogge and others.
Then she tapped the ground lightly with the wooden stick in her hand.
sieve!
In an instant, several thick vines broke out of the ground, grew rapidly, intertwined, and spread toward the giant tree, soon forming a long staircase in front of everyone.
At the end of the stairs, the trunk of the giant tree suddenly transformed into a green circular light gate, dazzling and eye-catching.
Grandma Sangla walked forward slowly, and Diya came to the side to support her.
"Yeah, yeah."
At this moment, the elf on Rogge's shoulder suddenly came to Rogge's ear, gently scratched his hair, and seemed to want to say something.
Hearing this, Roger listened carefully.
Yiya was telling him that she felt a very familiar feeling towards the Grandma Sangla in front of her, but she didn't know why.
Although Grandma Sangla in front did not look back as she went up the stairs, she seemed to have noticed what Yiya said and spoke with a smile.
"Gardener elves always have a special sense of the mood of life. They will actively approach and surround creatures with pure hearts."
"Captain Roger, she likes you very much."
Hearing this, Roger didn't know what to say.
Pure heart
He felt that he had nothing to do with this word.
I guess that idiot Iya was so sleepy that he couldn't tell the difference.
"You know her?"
Roger took this opportunity to ask a question.
Iya's unexpected appearance on Sea Snake Island was unknown.
Roger also asked Iya about this after obtaining the communication potion.
However, the confused elf looked bewildered, as her memory seemed to start from that ship.
There were flowers on the boat, and she was born from the flowers, but like the flowers, she did not belong to the boat.
Therefore, she had no memories of her hometown, and just because she didn't like the people on the ship, she found an opportunity to escape.
In response to Rogge's question, Grandma Sangla responded softly and answered his doubts.
"On this vast ocean, countless nations and races have risen and fallen. They have created glory and have also been submerged by the sea..."
"The elves naturally created their own kingdom and had their own era."
"A great elven king founded an elven kingdom called Vengeta, which spanned several seas and remained powerful for a long time."
"The elves under her command are good at fighting, but also kind and peaceful. They hate selfish and inherently cruel races, but they are tolerant and can live in peace with other kind races."
“This is the essence of how they created this history.”
"In order to make the elves even greater, she used her great power to modify her own extraordinary bloodline and gave birth to several elven descendants."
"This is called the 'beginning of a branch' in the history of the Vengeta Empire, and it also symbolizes the beginning of the prosperity of the Vengeta Empire."
"These descendants of the elves all have their own corresponding abilities and responsibilities, and have spawned corresponding ethnic groups, responsible for the corresponding work of the entire Wengeta Empire."
"Gardener elves are one of them. They communicate with plants and flowers and can use the power of dew to make plants grow quickly."
Having said this, Grandma Sangla's voice paused slightly.
"I once had a good old friend who was also a gardener elf."
The Age of Elves, the beginning of the branch!
Grandma Sangla casually brought up a piece of unknown history, which surprised Roger a little.
The elf Iya also stood on Rogge's shoulder with a serious expression. She seemed to understand what Grandma Sangla said.
"An elf leader who can modify his own bloodline!"
Mira was very surprised. She took a pen and paper and wrote down what Grandma Sangla said.
Since acquiring the skills of a history apprentice, Mira has had a new idea, which is to record these lost histories while exploring history.
"Then do you know where the gardener elves' hometown is?"
Roger looked at her.
There is no doubt that Grandma Sangla must be a knowledgeable elder.
Grandma Sangla did not answer Rogge's question immediately, but continued to explain the history of the elven era.
"Because at the beginning of the branching, elves of different bloodlines were born, and barriers arose. The once unified elven empire eventually fell apart, and the various races drifted to different seas in the world..."
“… Some say that the beginning of the branch was the peak of the prosperity of the Elven Age, and it was also the reason for the decline of the Elven Age.”
"However, no one can come up with a standard answer to the right and wrong of history."
At this point, Grandma Sangla smiled softly.
"The Gardener Elves still have a home that still exists today, called the 'Flower Lake'."
"However, it is hidden on the other side of the gray fog of the sea, and it is difficult for ordinary people to reach it."
"A lake of flowers?" Hearing this, Rogge glanced at the elf on his shoulder.
After listening to this, Yiya also looked at Rogge, but she scratched her head and didn't seem to want to go.
Seeing this, Rogge smiled and said, since Iya didn't want to go so urgently, just let it be.
He had no intention of driving away the little gardener on his boat.
Roger looked at a fruit tree below.
"Grandma Sangla, I have another question for you."
"About the Sea of Confession and the people who live there..."
After Grandma Sangla stepped onto the last step, she turned and looked at Rogge.
"I will answer all your questions for you."
"I'm sorry to bother your friends to wait here for a while."
"Come in."
Rogge looked at everyone and Diya, then slowly entered the green light gate.
"Aiya!"
The elf on Rogge's shoulder was squeezed down by the light gate, and Lina reached out to catch it.
Iya flew up, looked at the light gate with some annoyance, snorted lightly, and stuck out her tongue.
"Please follow me. Granny Sangla has prepared some desserts for you."
Diya bowed slightly and led everyone to the other side.
…
Inside the giant tree.
This is a spacious space inside the tree. There are some tables and chairs on the ground that are connected to the giant tree, as if they grew out of the giant tree.
Even some of the books on the bookshelf are connected by wooden vines.
Grandma Sangla came to a small wooden stool and sat down.
Then, a wooden chair slowly rose behind Rogge.
"Please take a seat, Captain Roger."
Grandma Sangla said.
Rogge didn't hesitate and sat down directly.
Although he knew that the Grandma Sangla in front of him should have good intentions towards him, he still cautiously saved a file before entering.
"There are always some secrets in the outside world. Their power is almost everywhere, so I can only invite you here."
As she spoke, Grandma Sangla slowly took off the hood of her green robe.
Then, a very distorted and terrifying face was revealed.
This is a completely wooden, pitch-black face with undulating black bark textures. It is hard and old, and looks terrifying and weird.
Furthermore, not only her face, but also her neck and even her shoulder blades had turned into black bark, with some black branch protrusions growing on them.
But her only intact eye was filled with calmness and gentleness.
This did not surprise Rogge, but rather made him seem calm, as he had already guessed this.
"So, inside this big tree, we can block their prying eyes?"
Roger looked around.
This is a mysterious world where gods exist, and he has experienced the spying of those hidden beings before, so he agrees with what Grandma Sangla said.
"Yes, this is my true self, the Tree of Life. It can block out prying eyes from the dark."
Sangla nodded slightly.
Hearing this, Rogge retracted his gaze and looked at her in surprise: "Your true form? The Tree of Life?"
He thought that Grandma Sangla would be a priest or something like that, and the person who really wanted to see him should be someone else. He didn't expect that she was actually the one.
"Yes, I am the Tree of Life, my real name is Knope."
"This is my manifested body. Her original name is Sangla, and she is a kind-hearted child."
"The manifested body?"
"That's right. Due to some special reasons, I must have a manifested body to observe my own condition. Sangla took the initiative to assume this responsibility."
Having said that, she sighed slightly.
"This is exactly why I prayed for foreknowledge and found you."
Roger frowned slightly.
It seems that the "Tree of Life Nop" in front of him must have fallen into some kind of dilemma and wanted to find a solution, so it came to him through some special means.
"I saw from my foresight that you came from a dark place, seeking the truth."
The dark land... refers to the five seas after the great wave
Roger thought to himself.
"However, your current rank is not high, and knowing too much is not good for you, so I can only tell you part of the story."
There was a hint of apology in the Tree of Life's eyes.
Roger nodded.
Of course he knew that.
Some of the information he had previously obtained from the prison was still sealed in the game.
The Tree of Life then began to tell its story to Roger.
"You should know that there are many beings in this world. They are born out of faith, gather together to form a source, and control rules and authority..."
Source of faith.
Roger immediately thought of this word.
Just as the Tree of Life said, the faith of the creatures in this world will automatically converge into one source, and He will gradually gain wisdom.
Just like [knowledge and wisdom].
"There are also some who were not born with faith, but because of their own growth, they eventually stepped into the stage of mastering faith."
“They are fundamentally different from the source of faith, but can also become powerful through faith.”
Can a being born without the source of faith become an existence of the same level
Maybe this is what a transcendent person is like
Roger was thoughtful.
"In the beginning, this world was orderly. The source of faith became stronger because of faith, and naturally it would protect the source of faith."
"An existence that is not a source of faith also became one of them after stepping into it."
"Since then, although there have been occasional disputes over faith, the world has been relatively peaceful, with races rising and falling one after another..."
At this point, the Tree of Life stopped and sighed deeply.
"However, I don't know when something unexpected happened..."
"That horrible, unknown source, the beginning of all secrets..."
"A glorious being touched it, but was infected."
"Secrecy is born from this..."
At this point, the Tree of Life couldn't help but shake his head slightly, with a complicated look in his eyes.
She suddenly paused.
Seeing this, Rogge frowned slightly. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Just tell me. I have my own way to block their prying eyes."
The game can temporarily block some of his memories.
Rogge can know it first and then open the sealed memory later.
But the Tree of Life shook its head gently: "Actually, there's nothing special about it..."
"Just like human kings seek vast territories, endless power, and even immortality..."
"Desire is infinite, and it does not take the initiative to do anything, it just expands the desire..."
Having said that, the Tree of Life raised its hand.
Looking at the arm that originally belonged to Grandma Sangla, which was also eroded by the black bark, it was pitch black and extremely hard. She remained silent.
Seeing this, Roger seemed to realize something. He hesitated for a moment but still didn't speak.
But the Tree of Life also raised its head at this time and looked at him: "Captain Roger, you should have heard it too."
"I am also one of those who was infected by selfish desires..."
After hearing this, Roger fell silent.
Needless to say, the strange features on Grandma Sangla's body do not conform to the characteristics of the Tree of Life at all.
And she also said, "For some reason, a manifested body is needed to observe one's own condition."
Perhaps this is exactly what she needs from Roger.
