My Magic Age

The Black Forest is always rainy in this season, as if the world is soaked in water.

Kalancuo led more than 300 barbarian slaves and more than 100 orc construct warriors, and disappeared in the shadows of the trees in the drizzling rain. They went to clear the spider warriors and giant spiders wandering in the dense forest in the area west of Green Valley.

The group of barbarian slaves under Bernd have been living like stray dogs recently, and they have been holding back a fire in their hearts.

Now, they have received sufficient supplies, and the injured barbarian slaves have also been treated. Kalancuo and Justus have led warriors to join them one after another to boost the morale of these barbarian slaves, so these barbarian slaves can't wait to fight back.

The Nibru spiders have infiltrated the western area of ​​Green Valley. Giant spiders are distributed in a web-like pattern in the dense forest. The spider warriors began to attack the Yelo indigenous tribe in the western area of ​​Green Valley. During the battle, a large number of Yelo indigenous warriors were slaughtered by the spiders, and some indigenous villages were destroyed by the spider warriors. Tens of thousands of indigenous people were homeless and displaced, and they rushed to the depths of Green Valley under the pressure of the Nibru spiders.

In order to prevent the situation in the western part of Kalu Valley from continuing to deteriorate, Kalancuo thought that he should teach those Nibru spiders a lesson.

Before Kalancuo set out, I repeatedly told her that she must try to avoid fighting when encountering the spider warlord.

I told her that I would deposit some of the supplies in the indigenous tribe of Elder Singer, so that even if I was not in the Yelo plane, they could get sufficient supplies.

In this way, Kalancuo and Justus set out on the journey again, and Bernd and nearly a hundred injured barbarian warriors stayed and went to the indigenous tribe with us.

…

The wooden houses on the sea of ​​trees are connected together, and the drizzle falls on the roofs to form a light mist.

Nearly a hundred injured barbarian slaves built more than a dozen cowhide tents under the tree houses. These tents are scattered in the open space in the forest. There is a huge bonfire in the middle of the tents. Even on rainy days, the bonfire is still burning. The moment the raindrops fall, they turn into water vapor and evaporate. The white water vapor in the rain is like lingering smoke.

If the barbarian slaves were not tall and the wooden house stairs could not bear the weight of the barbarian bodies, they might be invited to the wooden house on the top of the tree by the enthusiastic natives.

The Yero natives have their own way of survival, which includes the understanding of the natural laws of the Yero plane and the cognition of the entire Black Forest. For example, they boil water with the leaves of the collected star wood, and then add it to the big wooden tub, so that the injured barbarian slaves can take a bath in the big wooden tub. This kind of star wood leaves can accelerate healing, and the sap of the star wood has a unique smell. Most mosquitoes in the Black Forest hate this smell.

The mosquitoes in the Yero plane are also extremely fierce. Even rainy days cannot stop them from flying in the forest. Most mosquitoes contain a special acid poison in their bodies. If they are bitten by these mosquitoes, the wound will not only be red and swollen, but also painful and itchy. They wish to cut off the skin and flesh on their bodies with a knife.

The way the Yero natives deal with these mosquitoes is very simple, that is, they often boil water with the leaves of the star wood for bathing.

There are more than 20 large wooden bathtubs on the open space in the forest, and the barbarian slaves lie comfortably in them.

For these barbarian slaves, it was probably the first time in their lives to experience the pleasure of taking a hot bath.

The rain kept falling into the steaming hot tub, making a ding-dong sound, which seemed to be a concerto of nature.

Elder Singer invited me, Katarina, Alia, and Betty to a two-story round wooden house on the top of the tallest giant pine tree in the tribe. This wooden house was the tallest one built here, and it was filled with various gorgeous decorations inside and outside. Some colorful magic crystal balls were hung in strings on the eaves outside the wooden house.

The skulls of various powerful monsters were hung on the walls outside the wooden house. What surprised me most was that there was actually a head of an adult dragon.

Although the dragon scales on the head of this dragon had all fallen off, and the muscles on the head had completely weathered away, revealing the crystal-like bones inside, it was still clear that it was the head of a dragon.

Elder Singer saw that my eyes were fixed on the dragon skull, and he smiled and said to me: "This is a trophy left by an ancestor. This story has been passed down from generation to generation. It is said that several dragons flew to Green Valley and built a dragon nest on the Pillar Mountain in the south of Green Valley. They flew to Green Valley to hunt every day. These dragons captured all living things in Green Valley, including people in our tribe."

"Did your ancestor kill this dragon with his own hands, and then nailed its head to the wall outside the house?" I stood under the wall. If the huge skull was fully opened, it could easily swallow me in one bite.

"...No, those Asian dragons are too powerful for us, and we can't fight them." Elder Singer said, and then he said: "It was the War Tree, the King of Dryads, who helped us defeat these Asian dragons and left one Asian dragon forever in Green Valley. Our ancestors obtained the skull of this Asian dragon."

"Okay, Elder Singer, your ancestors must have participated in that dragon-slaying operation to receive this honor. Your ancestors are really brave." I said to Elder Singer.

Elder Singer seemed very happy to hear me say this, and frankly admitted: "Yes, the Gilda tribe has never lacked warriors."

It turned out that Elder Singer's tribe was called Gilda, and this was the first time I heard him mention it.

But then I asked Elder Singer again: "Did your ancestors lead those Asian dragons to the center of Green Valley?"

"No, our tribe is the battlefield here!" Elder Singer drew a circle in the tree house area with his hand, indicating that this was once a battlefield.

"So how did Mr. War Ancient Tree, the king of tree spirits, help your ancestors?" I asked puzzled.

The center of Green Valley is at least ten kilometers away from here. The Yero native warriors, relying on the lord aura of the War Ancient Tree, probably have no way to defeat the Asian dragon. The most likely situation is that the War Ancient Tree directly participates in the battle.

Just as I was thinking seriously, Elder Singer gave the answer: "The tree spirit kings at that time had not been cursed yet, and those tree spirit kings could walk freely in the Black Forest..."

I never thought the answer would be like this, so I said: "You mean the tree spirit king in the center of Green Valley is a cursed ancient war tree?"

Elder Singer said to me: "Well, that's it. The tree spirit kings in the Black Forest were in charge of this forest. They were herders in the jungle and could walk freely in the Black Forest."

He seemed to be trapped in some kind of memory, and his eyes became very empty, as if someone had taken over his soul.

His voice became low and strange, and without emotion: "At the beginning... the dragons in the dragon nest on the cliff often hunted wild beasts in the Black Forest, and occasionally hunted people in the tribe for a change. The ancestors sought protection from our guardian war tree. The tree spirit king of the war tree is much stronger than the dragon. The guardian war tree invited by the ancestors successfully drove away the dragons. The tree spirit king not only drove away the dragons, but also killed a dragon and left the dragon's skull to us."

I took the opportunity to ask: "What kind of powerful person cursed these war trees?"

Elder Singer seemed to have broken free from the invisible binding force, and his eyes regained a clear look.

Then, he said to me with a little tiredness: "It is said that a fairy dragon from the Kingdom of Dragons accidentally traveled to the Yello plane from the outer domain and found that the entire forest was under the protection of the King of Tree Spirits. The dragons living here were almost unable to survive, so it cast a powerful curse, depriving the King of Tree Spirits of the source of power, and imprisoning all the ancient war trees in place, so that they could not interfere with the dragons' hunting."

I was speechless, paused for a while, and then asked: "Just a curse imprisoned all the ancient war trees on the Yello plane?"

At this time, Elder Singer had completely sobered up, smiled at me without comment and said: "This is just a long-standing legend."

I opened my mouth and listened to Elder Singer telling me this long-ago story. It seemed that I heard something from it... It turns out that a long time ago, those ancient war trees could walk freely in the forest! No wonder the Nibru spiders of the Abyssal Dark Forces are so afraid of these ancient war trees that they slowed down the siege of Duke Samoyed and concentrated their forces to eradicate the twelve remaining ancient war trees in the Black Forest.

It seems that the Nibru spiders are worried that once the curse of these ancient war trees is lifted and their mobility is restored, they will become the biggest obstacle for the Nibru spiders to establish the Spider Empire on the Yello plane.

Ancient war trees deprived of the source of power?

The ancient war trees in the Dustwallow Swamp were once sealed for a long time, and then they lost a lot of memories. They probably have forgotten what happened before. When I thought of the ancient war trees in the Black Forest being deprived of the source of power, my mind suddenly flashed, and my hand involuntarily touched the "Key of Power" hanging on my chest, thinking: Maybe this leaf called the "Key of Power" has a certain connection with these things.

At this time, Elder Singer walked to the door of the wooden house, and the door was pushed open from the inside. Two beautiful indigenous girls poked their heads out of the door and saluted Elder Singer.

Then, Elder Singer said a lot of words to the two indigenous girls in Yelo language, and the two girls didn't even dare to raise their heads.

After giving instructions to the two indigenous girls, Elder Singer turned around and said to me: "Lord Jijia must feel a little tired. Please take a rest in this tree house for a while. Let me gather all the other elders in the tribe, and then we will discuss the matter of "trade."

"..." I was speechless. I didn't expect Elder Singer to entertain me with indigenous beauties.

After saying this, Elder Singer left in a hurry.

The two native girls only had two banana leaves wrapped around their chests and hips. They were both of good figure and appearance, except that their skin was slightly bronzed. These looked quite normal. What I couldn't accept was their hair. It looked like they had been smeared with some green tree sap, and finally all the hair was shaped into a very strange shape, like a crown, or like a spittoon on their heads.

I walked into the wooden house with my head held high and found that the round wooden house was also decorated very luxuriously. Several beast skins were hung on the walls around it, and some precious furs were also spread on the floor of the wooden house.

Alia stood at the door of the wooden house, looked at me with a smile, and said, "Do you want me and Katarina to leave for a while, so as not to affect your mood for receiving gifts?"

Hearing Alia say this, Katarina couldn't help but chuckle, but didn't say anything.

I wiped the rain off my forehead with a handkerchief, and then glanced at the big bathtubs of the barbarian slaves under the tree house. The water vapor was steaming in the open space in the forest. It seemed that the barbarian slaves who didn't like water were enjoying it very much.

I first said to the two native girls in the Green Empire language: We also need the big wooden tubs under the tree for bathing, and we also need some leaves of the star wood.

But after I repeated these words several times, I found out helplessly that the two native girls didn't understand the Green Empire language at all.

So I had to use gestures and some pictures formed by manipulating water elements to explain to the two native girls what we needed, and finally let them understand.

After the two native girls ran out to make these preparations, I took a brief tour of this huge round wooden house with Katarina and Alia.

This round wooden house has two floors. When we walked in, we were on the first floor. When we walked upstairs along the exquisite wood-carved floor, we found that the upper part of the wooden house was divided into two parts. One part was a very private lounge, and the other side of the big house was full of wooden shelves. Rows of wooden shelves were filled with bundles of dried kudzu root, as many as hundreds of bundles.

Kudzu root is one of the main magic potions for preparing primary healing potions.

I didn't expect that there were so many magic herbs in Elder Singer's wooden house, so many that it felt suffocating.

Alia and I looked at each other. Alia's sexy eyes were shining brightly. She licked her lips gently and said to me: "Jijia, if Duke Samoyed knew that these natives' wooden houses actually stored so many magical herbs, would he regret his strategy for dealing with the natives of Yelo?"

I stood next to the shelf and smiled, saying: "In fact, what I want to know most is that Duke Samoyed has been operating in the Yelo plane for so long, why has he never discovered these secrets of the natives!"
