1145 House Arrest
Fang Heng sensed that the sacred tree was feeling apologetic.
"No, it's not your fault. It has nothing to do with you."
Just a moment ago, the power of the sacred tree had surged and begun to spread wildly.
To the sacred tree, this was an innate biological instinct.
Under normal circumstances, the sacred tree needed to undergo photosynthesis to maintain its energy supply, so the larger the vines, the better.
In just a short while, Fang Heng was startled when he saw that the vines were about to swallow the entire Hani City. He quickly stopped them.
At least for the time being, Fang Heng had no intention of starting a war with the Empire.
At most, they would secretly steal some things from the Empire's treasury.
Fang Heng was still unable to fully control the sacred tree after it had grown. However, there were no longer any obstacles in issuing some ordinary instructions and transmitting emotions.
It was worth mentioning that when he was near the sacred tree, he could also share the tree's perception of the outside world.
Fang Heng could sense everything that was happening around the sacred tree.
Fang Heng patted the tree trunk gently and focused on the game log.
[Hint: You have been recognized as an ally by Abe Akaya, you have obtained part of its skill description.]
Additional skill 1: Thorn piercing.
Additional skill 2: Photosynthesis.
Additional skill 3: Blood nutrient.
Additional skill 4: Rapid growth.
Additional skill 5: Plant armor.
Additional skill 6: Bloody miasma (currently inactive).
The above six skills didn't have any changes compared to when it was in its infancy. After the growth stage, it gained four more skills. Fang Heng focused on observing the subsequent four skills.
Additional skill 7: Protective barrier.
Description: Activate the power of the sacred tree to summon a protective barrier. The barrier can absorb damage and convert part of the damage into energy absorption.
Additional skill 8: Light of life
Description: The consumption of energy can activate the light of life, awakening the life energy in the sacred tree and affecting the living things in the area. It will restore the HP of the target area and dispel most of the negative effects of the target unit in the area (including but not limited to weakness, curse, broken limbs, etc).
Additional skill 8: Tree boundary teleportation (this skill cannot be used in the current trial environment).
Description: The sacred tree has the ability to travel through time and space. If you find a sacred tree of the same origin, you can complete the teleportation between the sacred trees.
Additional skill 9: Blood calamity.
Description: Transform the sacred tree into blood form. Some skills will become attack-type blood forms. The transformation of skills will consume a large amount of energy. Excessive consumption of energy will cause the main body of the sacred tree to be greatly weakened (excessive consumption will cause the level of the sacred tree to drop, and there is a probability of the sacred tree degenerating, with a very small probability of causing permanent damage).
Fang Heng carefully read the skill description and revealed a thoughtful look in his eyes.
The two skills, protective barrier and light of life, were both defensive-type skills. They could strengthen the protection of the sacred tree and its recovery ability...
Eh?!
Fang Heng's pupils shrank immediately when he saw a line of small words in the brackets of the game's description.
Dispel the curse?!
The sacred tree's skill could dispel curses? This meant...
Fang Heng's heart started to beat faster.
The vampires!
Could the curse on the vampires also be removed by the sacred tree?
Yes, this theory should be correct!
The more Fang Heng thought about it, the more he felt that there was no problem with this theory.
The fact that the vampire ancestors were able to survive the curse of the heavenly forces was most likely due to the influence of the sacred tree.
After that, the vampire ancestors had clearly cultivated the seed of the sacred tree in order to completely break the curse in their bodies!
The seed of the sacred tree was the answer!
Fang Heng was secretly excited and couldn't help but clench his fists.
After removing the curse on the vampires, the abilities of the vampires could be further improved.
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Fang Heng continued to read.
Tree boundary teleportation?
Was it a teleportation skill?
What did it mean by the sacred tree of the same origin?
Just as he was feeling puzzled, several game prompts flashed quickly on his retina.
[Hint: It has been detected that the player has unlocked the qualification to build a Tier 6 teleportation portal, and has passed the internal verification.]
[Hint: It has been detected that the player has and is bound to the sacred tree-Angetas. After internal verification, the player can now use the sacred tree, Abe Akaya, to teleport. The player's current realm mission-the World of Forests-has been completed, and the next stage of the mission is triggered...]
[Warning: Conflict detected.]
[Hint: As the player is currently in a special trial environment, the player cannot use the sacred tree-Abe Akaya to complete the teleportation. The tree boundary teleportation skill cannot be used in the current trial environment.]
[Hint: The player cannot trigger the next stage of the realm mission in the current trial state. The player will trigger subsequent realm missions after leaving this trial. The player will receive an additional 5,000 King of Gods' points as compensation after the trial ends.]
Fang Heng was moved when he saw the game prompt.
He finally understood!
The sacred tree was also a special teleportation device!
With the help of the sacred tree, he could probably enter the higher-tier game world-the World of Forests.
It was a pity.
He was currently in a trial state, so he could not use the sacred tree's teleportation passage to go back and forth in the game worlds, nor could he trigger the next stage of the mission.
Fang Heng didn't feel disappointed at all. Instead, he was very excited.
He was rich, he was rich.
With the ability to open the passage, he didn't have to worry about how to quickly bring the sacred tree, Abe Akaya, back.
As soon as the trial was over, he could toggle between the elementary game Vampire Apocalypse and the intermediate game Barbarian Apocalypse via the sacred tree!
As for the region's main storyline mission, Fang Heng was not in a hurry.
Originally, there were too many things to do in the trial. There was the main storyline of the World of Forests as well as the opening of the Tier 6 teleportation passage. It was too messy.
Now he could focus on the trail and this was a good thing for him.
The only problem was that the sacred tree could not be transplanted after it had evolved into a mature body.
It didn't matter.
Fang Heng continued to integrate his spiritual perception and tried to communicate with the sacred tree, Abe Akaya.
Abe Akaya sensed that there was a huge amount of energy hidden in the unknown stone. It wanted to get more black stones, the more the better.
The more energy it absorbed, the faster it could level up. Otherwise, it could only rely on photosynthesis to slowly absorb energy, and it would take decades for the tree to level up.
Fang Heng forced a smile.
It was too difficult.
The origin of the black stone was still unknown, so where was he going to find it?
The sacred tree, Abe Akaya, could not sense the energy fluctuations of the black stone either. Therefore, it could only find other objects that contained a large amount of energy to absorb, but the efficiency of the absorption would be very low.
Fang Heng was communicating with the sacred tree when another red prompt appeared on his retina.
[Hint: The player team has triggered the main trial mission-The Princess under house arrest..]
