Chapter 78 Karma (Bonus Chapter for Recommendation Tickets)
Next, Miss Wu Ge used the powerful ability of the Ring of Air, Lady Vilya, to quietly contact the City of Dawn, naturally to inquire about Treebeard's situation from Old Sindaro. However, strangely, as soon as Old Sindaro heard the name "Treebeard," he fell silent, no matter how Miss Wu Ge asked, he would not speak.
But after a while, she suddenly beckoned Fang Senyan to come over, saying that Old Sindaro's nephew, the War Tree Faleel, had something to ask.
Fang Senyan put Miss Wu Ge in his arms, and then pressed his finger on the disguised Ring of Air to communicate with Faleel mentally. War Treant Faleel said very strangely:
"Why did you suddenly think of asking about Treebeard? This is Uncle's taboo."
Fang Senyan asked curiously:
"Why?"
Faleel seemed a little embarrassed:
"If Uncle knew that I had revealed his secrets, then my end would be very miserable... Okay, okay, Mistress Wu Ge, don't be angry, I'll be honest, well, this matter must be told from the beginning."
Mr. Faleel lowered his voice:
"Treebeard is one of the three remaining primitive treants, the other two being Leafshade and Treebark. Treebeard is the leader of the Ents and the master of Fangorn Forest. In his long life, he has visited forests in many places, including the sunken Beleriand forest under the sea. During this long wandering, he met a very elegant and beautiful girl whose name was Finberthiel..."
Miss Wu Ge heard this and said strangely:
"Lady Vilya can't support such communication for a long time now. Please save time. Although it's rude to say so, what does this have to do with Grandpa Old Sindaro?"
Mr. Faleel sighed and presented all the truth to everyone in a very concise sentence:
"Aunt Finberthiel is Uncle's first love."
“……”
“…….”
Everyone was speechless. They never expected such a strange thing to happen, the hatred of stealing a wife!!
Mr. Faleel continued:
"Later, Aunt Finberthiel had a conflict with Treebeard and ran to the other side of the Anduin River to plant saplings. As a result, Sauron's evil fire covered the area, and Aunt Finberthiel disappeared from then on."
"So that's how it is." Fang Senyan murmured, "Then can you give us any advice? Mr. Faleel, we have obtained information that Treebeard will bear golden fruit recently, and our goal is to obtain the fruit."
Faleel was stunned for a long time, and said in shock:
"Treebeard bears golden fruit?? How is this possible?"
Under Faleel's explanation, everyone learned that for the Ents, bearing golden fruit is a sign of transformation, similar to tribulation, which is equivalent to sublimating and condensing their most fundamental power again. Usually, the golden fruit that is produced will be reabsorbed by the Ent.
Another situation is that some extremely powerful Ents will also use their last essence to bear golden fruit after suffering fatal injuries, which is similar to the continuation of their lives. It is worth mentioning that the golden tree seeds used by Elrond belong to this category, and their quality is far inferior to the golden tree fruit in the first case.
Hearing that Fang Senyan and the others were planning to attack the golden fruit, Mr. Faleel immediately became excited and demanded to join with a very strong attitude! Even a blind person knew how coveted he was for the golden fruit... But you must know that Faleel is a very rare existence among the Ents. He had already demonstrated his ability before, he could let himself leave the tree in a spirit form, and then directly invade other ordinary trees and transform into a treant.
The benefit of his ability is very obvious. Even if the tree that is parasitized is destroyed, the spirit body will only be severely damaged, but the disadvantage is also very direct - Faleel often has to occupy an absolute disadvantage when facing Ent opponents of the same age as him.
Since Faleel volunteered to come, Fang Senyan and the others certainly couldn't wait for this strong support to come, because as long as Faleel dared to go out and sacrifice a little spiritual power value, then he could travel through the forest at an incredible speed in the "spirit body" state (similar to wood style), so Fang Senyan and the others only needed to wait for him for more than ten hours.
While waiting, Fang Senyan and the others still had things to do, because the hidden main mission they triggered had to choose one from "Saruman's Ambition/Isengard's Hidden Dangers".
After investigation, Fang Senyan and the others found that Saruman's ambition should be related to the Rohan line. If you choose this route, you have to go to Edoras, the capital of Rohan, and join Saruman's other powerful subordinate, Grima Wormtongue, to assassinate his political enemies and clear obstacles for Saruman to rule the entire Rohan.
The hidden dangers of Isengard listed several major forces around Isengard that might threaten the city, hoping that Fang Senyan and the others would weaken them. Among these potential forces were the water monsters of the Isen River, the bandit forces of Dunland Kashamo, and in addition, the Ents of Fangorn Forest were also impressively listed.
Since this is the case, then Fang Senyan and the others decisively chose the hidden main mission: Hidden Dangers of Isengard, and immediately obtained a reminder from the Nightmare Mark:
"You have obtained the hidden main mission: Hidden Dangers of Isengard."
"Difficulty: Unable to evaluate."
"Completion time limit: Twenty days."
"Mission introduction: Since you have chosen the hidden force Saruman, you should serve this force."
"Mission objective: Within twenty days, weaken the forces that can pose a threat to Isengard, and obtain any one of the mission items: the water monster's black dorsal fin/the Dunlending's gold tooth/the broken Ent heart."
"Mission reminder: The drop rate of mission items is not high, you have to hurry up."
"If the main mission fails: you will be immediately teleported back to the Nightmare Space, and 100,000 universal points will be deducted."
"You have obtained the hidden side mission: Saruman's Commission."
"Difficulty: Unable to evaluate."
"Completion time limit: Nine days."
"Mission introduction: Seize the golden fruit before Treebeard's golden fruit matures, so that Treebeard's power is greatly weakened."
"Mission objective: Seize the golden fruit."
"Mission reminder: Although the Ents love peace and have a gentle nature, once they know your purpose, they are likely to immediately transform into creatures more ferocious than the Ringwraiths."
"If the main mission fails: part of the related abilities you have already obtained will be forcibly stripped away."
Fourteen hours later, Fang Senyan and the others met Mr. Faleel on the scenic Isen River Dam. Miss Wu Ge had already found a large black maple tree for him to parasitize. The branches of this maple tree were strong and vigorous, as if carved out of steel, full of exuberant vitality, and even the branches and leaves had a kind of unyielding tenacity.
Mr. Faleel plunged into the tree trunk, and it took a lot of effort to drive away the original will in the tree, shaking and letting the magical power make the tree's roots grow feet, turning it into a large walking war treant.
This time, the war treant generated by Mr. Faleel also had a circle of black vines wrapped around his neck, which looked like a black scarf. For the enemy, this was a very deadly weapon. Mr. Faleel could skillfully use this vine to entangle his opponent, and then use sharp, poisonous branches to stab him.
Under the leadership of Mr. Faleel, they skillfully traveled through the dense forest that no one had ever been to. The treants are known as the masters of the forest. This sentence is definitely not said casually. The journey along the way can be said to be unimpeded. Ferocious beasts, crazy insects, poisonous vines... did not appear in the lives of Fang Senyan and the others. After walking for about five or six hours, this strange combination climbed onto a mountain ridge. Mr. Faleel grabbed a gust of wind in the air with his arm and sniffed deeply:
"Let's rest here. Fangorn Forest is ahead. There may be a heavy rain later. Entering Fangorn Forest in the dark and wind and rain is not a good idea - especially when we are harboring bad intentions."
Fang Senyan and the others had already purchased various things in Isengard - camping tents and the like were quickly set up. It is worth mentioning that they even got five powerful magic arrows from Mr. Gantoshaar.
These five magic arrows were all made by mixing pig iron. The seemingly curved marks on the arrow shafts seemed useless, but if you penetrated them with spiritual power, you could feel a magma-like hot magic power slowly flowing, making the detector feel an indescribable scorching heat all over his body. Once it hits the target, it will explode violently and ignite the enemy into a blazing fireball at the fastest speed.
Obviously, these five magic arrows pose a considerable threat to the flame-fearing Ents.
After preparing everything for the camp, the sky quickly darkened. Fang Senyan looked at the distant forest, the green waves surging, the overlapping peaks, and couldn't help but mutter to himself:
"Is that Treebeard's Fangorn Forest? It doesn't look like anything special."
Mr. Faleel walked to his side with heavy steps and said in a muffled voice:
"If you think so, then you are very wrong. Look at the forest over there, and then look at Fangorn Forest? Take a closer look!"
