Chapter 75 The Forest That Restores Life
Chapter 75 The Forest That Restores Life
As the mark solidified, a faint smell of blood filled the air.
The three souls gradually broke free of their bodies and were about to escape, but Sabrina's sacrificial song seemed to possess some kind of magic, binding them to the spot and ultimately tearing them apart completely by the song.
The three corpses, engraved with strange runes, were completely absorbed by the carnivorous vines at that moment.
But then, all the carnivorous vines began to tremble.
A plague that was only effective against flesh-eating vines broke out in the valley through the corpses of those three people!
Sabrina, on the other hand, continued to sing the sacrificial song.
The creations of those barbarians gradually turned into rotten roots, lifelessly growing in the valley.
The life force they possessed upon death was completely returned to the earth's veins by Sabrina through the sacrificial song, completing the final step in this cleansing of the world's ills.
At this moment, Sabrina fulfilled the goddess's divine decree and finally broke through the final shackles, becoming a true extraordinary being!
Information about extraordinary professions gradually flowed into Sabrina's mind the moment she took the job.
She gained extraordinary power, the Green Scout.
As Sabrina savored her harvest, her body gradually began to glow, and her necrotic skin, like a silkworm cocoon, concealed unknown changes.
Immediately afterwards, the vines that coexisted with her gradually emerged and surrounded her.
Soon, Sabrina was completely encased in a large cocoon woven from vines, as if undergoing some kind of wondrous evolution.
With this treatment, the Blackthorn Forest finally regained its vitality.
On the other side of the forest, Otto and his companions, who had just arrived at the area where the Moonflower grew, witnessed a wondrous scene.
The roots and stems of the Moonflower that had been harvested were now growing new branches and leaves at a speed visible to the naked eye!
Even Goren was incredibly surprised to see the green flower buds about to bloom.
"We're lucky; the Blackthorn Forest seems to be teeming with life tonight."
Looking at the wondrous sight before them, Goren simply urged the two to sit down and observe, carefully sensing the opportunities brought by this vitality.
"Whether it's meditation or breathing techniques, witnessing life force changing in a concrete form right before your eyes can definitely bring a lot of new insights."
Upon hearing this, Otto did not hesitate. After offering a sacrifice to the goddess, he carefully observed the strange sight before him.
It was a wonderful feeling. Watching the tender flower buds slowly bloom, it was as if the surrounding atmosphere itself had a healing effect, gradually healing Otto with each breath.
Otto could clearly feel his fatigue disappear, and so could Tessa beside him.
But it wasn't just the elimination of fatigue; with each breath, Otto was pleasantly surprised to find that he seemed to be gradually finding the balance between the Azure Moon Breathing Technique and the Iron Wall Breathing Technique!
It's as if breathing techniques are not just a catalyst for martial arts, but have now become a complete part of Otto's body, fused with him!
Only after seeing that the two had made some progress did Goren patiently explain.
"According to the Druids, life force is a kind of tangible element. Human lifespan, the nutrients of the earth, and even the healing aura you can feel right now are all manifestations of life force."
Whether it's breathing techniques or meditation, their essence is to regulate the rhythm of life.
Therefore, in an environment full of vitality, martial arts skills and even magic can be improved.
In fact, pursuing an extraordinary career can, to some extent, transform one's level of vitality.
Of course, this applies only to living beings.
I'm not entirely sure about the specifics, but according to the druids, vitality seems to be a negative factor for the undead.
Goren is essentially a martial artist and has no understanding of the Druid tradition.
This knowledge was something Micah had taught him little by little during their past adventures.
Today, Goren is passing on this knowledge to his descendants, little by little.
As a veteran member of the Dragonbreaker, Goren only hoped to pass on as much knowledge and experience he had gained from his past adventures as possible to the two of them.
The three of them rested well for the night, bathed in the vibrant life force of the blooming moonflowers.
When Goren, who was on the last shift, noticed that the area around the Blackthorn Forest was gradually getting brighter, he immediately planned to wake Otto and Tessa, who were still fast asleep.
However, even Goren couldn't help but smile slightly after seeing the two's posture.
Although the two of them obediently rested by the tree last night, Tessa seemed quite restless after taking off her plate armor and falling asleep. She unconsciously lay on Otto's chest, using the boy as a pillow.
At this moment, the Law Priest's saliva was spreading along the patterns on the Moon Silver Carved Armor.
"What a pity, it would have been great if I could have recorded it."
Goren felt only regret. He was like an old father in the family, wanting to record the growth of his juniors, but he had no tools at hand to help him.
With this in mind, Goren had no choice but to reluctantly wake Tessa first.
The little girl opened her eyes groggily, only to find Goren pointing at her crotch while trying not to laugh.
Tessa lowered her head in confusion and immediately realized something was wrong.
Feeling the moon silver carved armor that she had been holding warm, Tessa suddenly remembered that after finishing her guard duty last night, she seemed to have fallen asleep next to Otto!
Seeing the glistening liquid that had overflowed from her, Tessa blushed and, without even looking for her handkerchief, quickly wiped it off with her sleeve.
The violent movements gradually brought Otto back to his senses.
After falling asleep last night, he spent the entire night out witting and battling with that grumpy raven until Tessa woke him up in such a strange way, thus pulling him out of the dream.
"What are you doing?"
Otto looked at the girl with some curiosity; her flustered appearance made her seem as if she had done something wrong.
Tessa's eyes darted around, and after confirming that she had cleaned her armor, she immediately stood up and greeted Otto with feigned composure.
"Good morning. I noticed your armor is a bit dirty, so I'll wipe it clean for you."
Before Otto could respond, Tessa immediately took out her plate armor from her spatial pocket and quickly put it on.
Tessa finally breathed a sigh of relief once she was back under her helmet.
Seeing the two of them making a scene, Goren finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The jagged edges, accompanied by loud laughter, actually diminished some of their intimidating power.
But Goren was warned by Tessa with a hammer and cane for this!
Seeing that the priest was about to be so ashamed that he attacked his teammates, Goren quickly waved his hand and steered the conversation toward today's itinerary.
"We have entered the depths of the forest and are trying to cross the Valley of Giant Trees and reach the cave complex where the kangaroo bats live before dark!"
Alright, little ones, are you ready for another adventure?
