Humans, elves, and dwarves all have the same origin of blood. The places where they were born were all forestless plains on the original continent before the ancient times. This is why the three races can freely intermarry and produce offspring naturally. The reason is that although lifespan and talent are different, at the most essential level, they are the same.
Just like humans have many races, dwarves have several major tribes, elves also have many branches, and the largest one is the elves of Far South Forest.
The sacred object of the Far Nansen elves is the [Tree of Life]. According to folklore, the Tree of Life is the first tree in the world. It has been watered by the river of destiny and bathed in the light of the primordial fire. , its leaves contain the power to revive all things and cure all diseases. Its fruits can make people return to youth, become strong and strong, and even extend the life of dying people.
Of course, these are all legends, and some things are not true. Joshua knows that the Tree of Life actually has no fruits. The so-called fruits are actually the new buds of the Tree of Life every year, which contain a large amount of Pure vitality, eating it can strengthen your physical fitness, and you can also gain a supernatural ability to be "invulnerable to all diseases".
And there is not only one Tree of Life. Every large gathering place of forest elves will have a Tree of Life, but only the huge tree nearly a thousand meters high in the Eternal Lake in the far south is the most popular. The sacred tree of praise.
Arriving in the courtyard of Beppu, Joshua saw the messenger who delivered the fruit.
This messenger is a huge blue bird.
Unlike ordinary homing pigeons, this kind of raptor named Tradewind Owl was specially cultivated by the elves. Its wings are three meters long. It is very strong and comparable to ordinary black iron warriors, and has intelligence similar to that of a child. They can fly extremely fast, maintain their physical strength with magic elements, only need to eat once a month, and have long endurance, making them perfect messengers.
There was a small bag with exquisite elf patterns hanging on the foot of this messenger. It stood quietly on the branches of the tree in the courtyard. After Joshua came over, it rolled its eyes, as if it had identified its target. .
It originally wanted to get up, fly closer, and hand over what it was carrying to that person, but when it saw Joshua and looked directly into his eyes, a terrible pressure suddenly hit the bird. The spirit of the tree made it weak all over, and it couldn't even hold on to the branches and fell straight down.
The warrior's fear aura has now evolved into an attack similar to a mental shock.
Just when the trade wind owl was stiff and about to fall to the ground, a hand reached out and grabbed its wings. Joshua took off the package from its legs, then straightened it and placed it on the ground. On the ground.
The Tradewind Owl was still as stiff as a statue, but Joshua had already opened the small package.
This package, like other storage packages, was cured with shrinkage and weight reduction spells. It contained two beautifully decorated boxes and a letter.
Joshua took out the letter first.
This letter was not sent by Claire. Elf druids are still sowing sun vines in other places in the North. This letter was written by her Windsong clan after they got the news. The following is roughly This means that they already know what happened to Claire in the North. As Claire’s relatives, friends and descendants, they are very grateful to Joshua for what he did.
They expressed regret for the excessive loss of Joshua's life, but the elves were absolutely generous to their friends. In order to repay Joshua's kindness, they were willing to send two fruits from the Tree of Life to express their gratitude.
In addition, they have also prepared other gifts, but these cannot be delivered by a messenger. The subsequent teams have already set off and are expected to arrive after a while.
"... It's been almost a month, and I've almost recovered on my own."
After reading it, Joshua sighed slightly. He knew that not everyone was like him, with the power of the Azure Orb to support him. Most people had lost their vitality and basically looked like they were dying before they were old. After a month of cultivation, almost all of his white hair has returned to black. It is estimated that he will be completely back to his full glory in just a few weeks.
Patting the trade wind owl on the head, a gentle force dissolved the stiffness in the bird's body, allowing it to move again - but to Joshua's embarrassment, after the bird regained its ability to move, He immediately took off like a ghost fleeing, and in the blink of an eye he was high in the sky, flying quickly towards the south - escaping.
He hasn't written a reply yet.
It’s not that the soldier couldn’t stop a mere bird, but taking action just for a mere bird was a bit too serious. After shaking his head with a smile, Joshua took the package and returned to Beppu.
From the window on the second floor of Beppu, Hotaru could be seen holding a hairbrush with a troubled face, brushing the sleeping black hair. However, after noticing Joshua's gaze, Hotaru looked up and smiled, waving her hand to say hello. , and the warrior nodded and waved in response.
In the study, Rin was looking at a report seriously, biting the tip of his pen. After pondering for a while, he raised his pen and commented on a paragraph, and then continued to work on the next document.
"It's really a lot easier."
With a sigh, he returned to his room. Joshua took out the two exquisite boxes from the package and opened them without hesitation.
The magic runes flow like water. As the box is opened, the spells attached to it are released. Suddenly, a strong breath of life turns into a breeze, blowing through the room, making people feel like they are in the depths of the jungle and experience the prosperous breath of nature. , Joshua took a deep breath of the suddenly fresh air. Even with his strength, he couldn't help but feel refreshed and his body felt much more comfortable.
This beautifully decorated medium-sized box was opened, and what was placed inside was a green tree bud. However, this tree bud was extremely huge, the size of a human fist, with a green luster flowing on it, and layers of life breath leaking out, even It forms a circular ripple visible to the naked eye, like a treasure.
Since he had eaten the Fruit of Life several times in his previous life, Joshua had no idea of appreciating it now. He simply picked it up, bit it down, chewed it a few times, and then swallowed it. Suddenly, the richness The vitality of life overflowed, and waves of warmth surged, spreading from Joshua's stomach to his whole body. This turbulent flow repaired many very minor damages on the warrior's body, and all the gray hair on Joshua's head fell off at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then new thick black hair grew.
However, that's all. Joshua's gold-level body was already nearly perfect, and he had already reached the point where he was invulnerable to all diseases. Some naturally generated toxins had no effect on him. The fruits of the ordinary tree of life were at most only Let him improve his attributes a little and heal the hidden wounds in his body. Only the buds on the eternal holy tree can significantly improve him.
However, the Tree of Life grows slowly and almost never loses its leaves. If you want them, especially the Holy Tree, to grow new buds, you don’t know how long you have to wait. This is a legendary item that you can’t buy with more money. .
"...the taste is a little better than the previous life, with mountain spring flavor and a bit sweet."
After eating this Life Fruit, Joshua knew that it was enough. Now his body was overflowing with vitality, and he even had the urge to vent. The second Life Fruit would have no effect on him unless This is the time when the warrior is injured and needs to replenish his vitality.
However, it seemed that due to the overflow of energy in his body, Joshua felt that the azure orb hanging on his chest was slowly heating up.
The warrior took out the pendant of the azure orb from his chest. He carefully looked at the cyan crystal that was emitting light. The fire in it no longer emitted bright light, but it was still burning 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 it also releases the pure brilliance of order.
"Who is the sage who left behind the Azure Orb and the Double Blade of Order..."
Looking at this fire, the inheritance crystal that could bring him into the state of the Burning Soul King, Joshua muttered to himself, and then fell into deep thought.
Evil gods, sages, these are all existences that he has not heard much information about in his previous life. Of course, according to his guess, these should be characters and content that will only appear in the fifth edition. Regardless of whether human resistance is successful or failed, The Evil God of the Void will only appear after the Abyss Invasion ends.
At that time, there will be a war between many legendary powerful men, gods and evil gods, and the information about the lost sages should also be revealed at that time.
It seems that even if you have experienced it once, there are still many things you don’t know. The real world is so vast that people can’t help but be curious.
Sighing, Joshua laughed again.
So what if he didn't know the information? In his previous life, he didn't know the information about the Disputed Continent, so wouldn't he still become a legendary warrior? The advantages in this life were so great that he had no worries or fears about the future.
However, when he recalled the abyss invasion, Joshua couldn't help but think of his final battle in Naya Fortress.
In the previous life, who betrayed them and stabbed themselves in the back on the battlefield between humans and demons
Putting his hand on his abdomen, 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 penetrating his body. Countless and most vicious curses spread in an instant. Stripped of all power from the body.
The feeling of powerlessness and unwillingness is really unforgettable and unforgettable.
He is actually more magnanimous than everyone thinks. This is the magnanimity that a strong man should have, but only for betrayers, warriors will never forgive or tolerate, and only death is their ending.
Since there has been nothing major recently, it might as well start looking for the betrayer in his previous life from now on. With a cold arc on his lips, Joshua recalled the details in his memory.
Definitely not a comrade in the war group. There will be prompts when players attack each other. The person who committed the betrayal must be an aboriginal. And there were actually not many aboriginals fighting with their war group in Naya Fortress at that time. , Joshua believes that as long as he eliminates them one by one, he will catch this betrayer one day.
Footsteps sounded from the stairs.
After temporarily stopping his thinking, Joshua raised his head and looked at the door.
Not long after, following the light footsteps of the girl, the figure of the silver-haired girl appeared in front of him, and at this time, the warrior's eyes softened a little.
"Owner."
Yingying still held the brush in her hand. She frowned slightly and seemed a little confused: "Well, the black situation seems a bit strange..."
green dove
