Chapter 835: Sacrifice the small for the big

Giving the Dragon Oak Tree to the Kingdom of Leatherman may not gain any power of faith, but it can generate conceptual power. This totem dream generated by the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, as long as it exists, will provide the Dragon Oak Mother Tree with a huge amount of dream divine power.

As long as it still exists, even if there is a problem with the Dragon Oak Mother Tree and the Dragon Oak Dream, the Dragon Oak Mother Tree will not be completely destroyed, and there is still a chance to make a comeback.

The main function of the tree spirit dream in the tree spirit kingdom Aroshi is the same.

It's just a tree spirit dream, a standard from scratch, even with Gavin and others' unremitting help, the progress of building is very slow, and it has not yet been fully formed.

But the Kingdom of Leatherman is different. There is already a nascent form of a real dream here, with totem lands everywhere and scattered totem spirits everywhere. It just lacks a key point like the Dragon Oak Tree to string them all together.

Once it starts, I believe that the ability that will burst out at that time will be step-by-step, reaching an unprecedented height in a very short time, and even surpassing the Dragon Oak Dream.

After all, the Dragon Oak Dream has been around for less than a year, while the Leatherman Kingdom has accumulated thousands of years of history. The foundations of the two are not at the same level at all.

As for whether the Leatherman Kingdom will take the opportunity to master the dream power and start the dream priesthood.

If they rely on their own power to build a totem dream, he must be worried, because the dream spark is born with it, and naturally the dream divinity will be generated.

But if it is built based on the Dragon Oak Tree, he doesn't need to worry.

Because there is a causal relationship between the two parties, even if the Dragon Oak Mother Tree completely gives up control of the Dragon Oak Tree, the Dragon Oak Tree was born because of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree. This is an established fact that even the gods cannot change.

As long as this point exists, the dream divinity and divine power born in this process belong to the Dragon Oak Mother Tree, not the Dragon Oak Tree itself.

This only refers to the conceptual divine power.

During this process, those Leathermen developed a belief in the Dragon Acorn Tree, but the Leathermen witches found a way to forcibly lock it up and use it for their own benefit. That is another story.

This falls into the category of stealing divine power.

At that time, even if the people do not report it, the officials will not investigate it. After all, the world is so big that the belief can be collected and placed in other places, not just the Leathermen Kingdom.

This is the idea of ​​the gods of Faerun represented by the forest goddess.

"Give us this dream tree?"

The nine Leathermen witches took a breath of cold air in unison. They did not expect Gavin to make such an unexpected decision.

Even a fool can see that the tree is different. It has escaped from the mundane and entered the category of divine trees.

Even for the natural balancers, such a subtree is probably not something that can be obtained just by wanting it.

After all, this was born when the Forest Lady gathered the power of the forests of the entire Faerun. If the Natural Balancer did not make the same achievements as destroying the Lord of Withering, even the Forest Goddess would not be able to mobilize so much forest power again. After all, the gods also have many shackles on their bodies.

But in a flash, they understood Gavin's wishful thinking.

But this is an absolute conspiracy. As long as they covet the role of the Dragon Acorn Tree and the divine power of the concept dream, they must give it up to the other party.

The nine Leatherman witch councillors began to communicate quickly and secretly again.

"He is right. Our biggest problem is that our totem land is built on countless totems. It is too scattered and often there is no way to work together. If it is enough to deal with ordinary enemies, it will be stretched to the limit to deal with those powerful enemies. Using dreams to connect all the totem lands is indeed a very good way."

"Since we have found a way, we will build it ourselves. If they can build the Dragon Oak Dream, we can build the Totem Dream with millions of totem spirits. It is nothing more than spending more time and energy. It is better than being controlled by others. Even if they give up again, this tree was born by the natural balancer. This will not change."

"It's easy to say, but when it comes to doing it, it will be extremely difficult. After all, we lack understanding of the real dream. Maybe we will succeed in a year or two, or maybe we will never be able to achieve it in our lifetime. There are too many uncertain factors."

"My suggestion is to accept it first, try to build our dream with it as the core, and when we have mastered it, we We can start from scratch and use our own power to create a new dreamland of our own. After all, the real power is in our own hands, and we can do whatever we want. "

"It makes sense. I think this method is feasible."

"I agree."

"I agree too."

"I object. This method is still too risky. After all, it involves divine power, and it is a dreamland known for its unpredictable nature. It is inseparable from illusions and is the easiest to manipulate and confuse people's minds. How can we be sure that the other party has completely given up the control of the subtree? "

"Once people are greedy, they are easily deceived. The method you are talking about is taking a shortcut. It is easy to fall into the enemy's trap and fall into an abyss of no return. "

"Speaking of powerful existence, we are not completely without it. Sister Shuiling was born with the essence of the water spirit of Lake Asen, the faith of countless aquatic creatures and terrestrial creatures. If she leads the aquatic spirit of Lake Asen, perhaps we can create our own totem dreamland without being controlled by others. "

"But this brings us back to the original question, what should we do to create dreams? With what's already available, we can do it in parallel."

"Dreams are not necessary for us, so why should we be anxious? We can take our time to figure them out."

"It was indeed not a necessity before. No one controlled the dream priesthood. Now that the natural balancer has been activated, the ability to control this aspect will become stronger and stronger. And our totem land is just a small dreamland. When the time comes, , we will be completely undefended in this aspect, it is better to intervene while the other party has just entered this aspect, and take the initiative in our own hands. "

"Sisters, don't belittle yourselves. Not to mention that the other party has not yet become a god. Even if he has really become a weak divine power and controls the dream priesthood, we are not without the power to resist when we join forces, let alone they have just dabbled in it now. This field has not yet been truly enthroned. As long as we are cautious enough and control it in our own hands, there will be no problem. "

"I still think this matter is too risky and must be considered carefully."

"If the transformation is completed, it will be very beneficial to the next war. It will make it easier for us to mobilize all the totem spirit power to suppress the murderous son of god. Don't forget that the opponent's best killing power, all violent deaths, will Within the scope of his control, once a large-scale war breaks out and a large number of soldiers on both sides die, his strength is likely to increase. With our combined strength alone, it will be difficult to suppress him, and the casualties will be difficult to control. "

"I recommend……"

"I think……"

This time the Leatherman Witch Council is very divided. Some support accepting Gavin's proposal to take over the Dragon Acorn Tree and transform it.

This is represented by the water spirit witch. They believe that the advantages of this matter outweigh the disadvantages. With it, a new path will emerge for the Leatherman Kingdom, which will not only take their strength to a higher level, but also become a piece of equipment in their hands. A powerful weapon.

The Akabane witches and the others are completely opposed. They believe that this matter involves a field that they are not good at, and there are too many variables, especially when it involves divine power. If you are not careful, you will easily suffer a big loss, which will harm the Kingdom of Leatherman. If there is a fatal impact on the foundation of the country, then the gain outweighs the loss.

Both sides had good reasons. They both believed that their decision was the best for the Leatherman Kingdom and were unwilling to change their minds easily. The two sides were in a stalemate for a while.

Gavin, who was waiting aside, saw no response from these witches, so he knew that they were wary of this matter, thinking that there might be a trap in it, and did not dare to accept it easily.

This is human nature. If it were him, he would also be muttering.

After thinking about it for a while, Gavin suggested again: "If you are worried, you can allocate a small part of the power and give it a try. After you are sure there is no problem, it will not be too late to inject power on a large scale.

If something goes wrong, I am willing to bear all the corresponding culpability. "

Gavin's words not only proved his innocence, but also further showed that he had no other plans. They also showed his confidence in the divine dragon acorn tree. As long as he personally senses its ability, those who hold objections will The Leatherman witches may also change their minds because of this.

"Commander Gavin is right. Everything now is based on our guesses. Maybe he really just has good intentions. It is us who have made things complicated. Even this dream tree is not good for us. The effect is not as great as imagined. You need to see it with your own eyes to know the specific situation. "

"I agree to send someone to conduct an on-site investigation. We will make a decision after we determine the true effect of the dream."

"I also agree with this proposal."

"I know the Totem Land best and I am willing to go there myself."

"I'm also willing to go there myself."

"Then this matter is settled."

The Leatherman witches also felt that such a stalemate was not a solution to the problem, so they had no choice but to take a step back and agreed to Gavin's compromise. They each recommended a witch from the supporting and opposing factions. The representatives are Shuiling Witch and Akabane Witch respectively.

Among them, the water spirit witch is the leader, because her identity is very special. She is not an ordinary witch, or even an ordinary fey, but a primitive fey. She is the fusion of the water essence of Asen Lake and the totem way of the Leatherman Kingdom. The one who was born was the oldest, most powerful, and most low-key and mysterious among them.

Many people who don't know much about the Kingdom of Leatherman have always thought that the Kingdom of Leatherman only has eight witch councilors and are unaware of her existence.

She usually stays in Lake Asen, forming her own system, and rarely participates in the various parliamentary decisions of the Leatherman Kingdom.

On the one hand, it is caused by the natural isolation between water and land.

On the other hand, it is determined by the racial nature of the fey that they like silence and do not like movement. Even those elves who live in the dragon oak mother tree will leave the mother tree from time to time and wander in the wilderness or live alone for a period of time. The racial nature It is the hardest thing to change, it is something that is innate and integrated into the soul.

This time, the Tukan people have invaded the country, and the Leatherman Kingdom is in danger of annihilation. Asen Lake has become the most important line of defense for the Leatherman Kingdom, forcing her to show her face.

She was most interested in the Dragon Acorn Tree, because she had already heard the name of the Dragon Oak Mother Tree before Gavin came to the East Territory of Desperation. She was also a frequent visitor to the Fairy Wilderness, and the teleportation tower under the water of Lake Assen The greatest function of the door is not to teleport in Faerûn, but to be able to pass directly into the Fey Wilderness.

If it weren't for her identity that prevented her from leaving Asen Lake easily for a long time, she would have long ago decided to visit the Dragon Oak Dreamland to learn from it and see if it could be used in Asen Lake.

Unexpectedly, not only did the creator of the Dragon Oak Dream come to the desperate Eastern Territory, but he also allowed the real dream to come to him and went on a killing spree in the Lesser Forest, eradicating the cancer that had been entrenched in this forest for countless years.

Now, the dream has been brought directly to Leatherman Kingdom and Lake Asen.

If it were based on her personal opinion, why would she have so many concerns? She would just accept it openly.

The dragon acorn tree was created by the purest force of nature. It was in the same line as these natural spirits, so it could only be good for them, but not harmful.

But as a member of the Leatherman Witch Council, she had to respect the opinions of other council members. As a senior witch council member, she knew very well that personal wishes and national interests sometimes conflicted. At that time , we have to give up personal wishes and put national interests first.

Because this is the foundation for ensuring the long-term peace and stability of Lake Assen. If there were no Leatherman Kingdom, the evil red-robed wizards of Sayre would directly extend their evil hands into Lake Assen and trample all living creatures here wantonly.

Therefore, when following Gavin into the real dream of the dragon acorn tree, the water spirit witch didn't seem to have any psychological burden.

In contrast, the Akabane Witch looked worried, looking at everything around her vigilantly, as if she wanted to find traps and problems.

Her attitude is not directed at Gavin. She highly recognizes the young commander's character and ability. She is sensitive and rejects the gods. As a native Leatherman witch, she has grown up The education she received was to be wary of the invasion of the gods' beliefs and to protect their totem land.

She will instinctively reject anything related to God.

When the forest lady personally descended into the divine incarnation to endorse the natural balancer, she naturally smelled a strong smell of conspiracy.

When the two witches followed Gavin into the dreamland of the Dragon Acorn Tree, the place was not empty, but instead they were in a huge battlefield.

They seemed to have entered a dream, and they seemed not to move where they were.

Because there is no difference between the scene here and reality.

The Chariot Corps and Leatherman's Army were facing each other two kilometers apart.

There is a difference.

At least there was a difference in the eyes of the two witches. The dragon acorn tree that grew into a towering tree overnight did not appear here.

The reason why real dreams are called real dreams is because all the laws here are infinitely close to reality.

Many uninformed people mistake dreams for reality.

This is probably the case for many tank legionnaires and Leathermen, because nothing around them has changed significantly.

But after entering the dreamland, the two witches who used their true vision on themselves saw more different scenes.

Here, reality and fiction are completely intertwined.

The soldiers, animals and totem spirits on both sides are real, at least the souls are, but a series of entities such as bodies, equipment, chariots and cargo are simulated in dreams.

Gavin was not stingy about his experience in dreams and taught him everything: “Real dreams are not as real as possible, because this will cause creatures to be unable to distinguish between reality and dreams.

Especially for daily dreams, clear signs must be set to distinguish reality from dreams. For example, there is no sun in the dream, or there are two suns, which can make everything here appear more dreamy and more vivid. It's a bit cartoony, and the specific state it presents depends entirely on the creator of the dream.

But I had previously planned to create a war training dream. This dream should be as close to reality as possible. Not only should it be 100% replica of their five senses in reality, but it should even ensure that the feeling of physical injury is the same as in reality, including death. Feel.

Only in this way can they accumulate combat experience to the greatest extent, fear death, and allow them to better protect themselves on the battlefield.

Otherwise, not only will it not play a training role, but it will create misunderstandings for them. When they are actually injured, they will have misunderstandings and even ignore life and death. "

"I've been taught a lesson." The water spirit witch praised her well. "You are worthy of being the creator of the Dragon Oak Dreamland. Her knowledge of dreams is indeed beyond the reach of others. It's just about the totem spirit transformation and taking over the dreamland that you mentioned earlier. How to proceed? ?”

What she cares about most now is to create her own dream.

"A stable dream is based on the support of countless soul consciousnesses. When the soul consciousness at the bottom of this dream is all replaced by your totem spirits, this dream will be under your control.

At this point, totem spirits have an advantage that other creatures do not have. They are spiritual bodies themselves and can travel freely between reality and dreams.

In fact, your kingdom itself already has a common dream form, but it lacks a powerful being to unite it.

Shuiling, you should have this ability, but once you choose yourself as the core of the dream, you will be bound by the dream. Once you choose to leave the dream, it means that the dream is awakened, and the entire dream will collapse and return to its original state. "

Gavin treated her sincerely and kindly helped Shuiling Witch analyze it.

He always believed in the truth of sincerity for sincerity.

Especially playing tricks with these powerful witches will only make things slide into a terrible abyss.
