Chapter 246 The Puffy World Tree?
Chapter 246 The Puffy World Tree?
Hope is beautiful, but reality often falls short of expectations.
The World Tree cannot lay eggs like a mother hen every day.
Creating a world has already depleted the accumulated essence.
The World Tree has only been growing for a few months, despite its seemingly large size.
Its volume appears large, but it is actually bloated.
She extends her form with all her might, only to draw more essence from the chaos.
In the chaotic space, she would be crushed if any seemingly soft world were to collide with her.
The truly solid part is only the smallest section connected to the Unsurpassable Sacred Ground.
Being able to create a world at this time is the result of the blessing from the Unsurpassable Sacred Ground.
The Primordial Elves continue to improve their quality through two methods.
One is to continue creating worlds.
This is not something that can be done in a short period of time.
The other is to strengthen existing worlds.
The worlds created by the World Tree are merely empty, low-level worlds.
If a large amount of material, energy, and laws can be filled into them, they can grow rapidly.
When the world reaches a certain level, the quality of the Primordial Elves will also improve.
To advance to a middle-level world, at least four basic laws are needed: life, death, creation, and destruction.
This means the addition of four Law Elves.
Of course, the world itself will also give birth to corresponding laws and materials, but this process is too long for Chen Yu to accept.
It is better to foster the growth of the small world through force-feeding.
After playing with the little Elves for a while, Chen Yu took out the [Rank Two Potential Trial] stone tablet and chose to use it.
[Hint: You have activated the Potential Trial (Rank Two).]
[Hint: Please select the difficulty of the Potential Trial.]
[Normal, Difficult, Nightmare, Purgatory, Abyss.]
"Abyss."
Chen Yu did not hesitate at all.
[Hint: You have chosen "Abyss" as the difficulty. Please confirm your choice or modify the difficulty.]
"Confirm!"
[Hint: Please confirm again or modify the difficulty.]
"Confirm!"
[Hint: Difficulty selection completed. Trial begins.]
In the next moment, a force of traction surged, attempting to pull Chen Yu into an unknown time and space.
The last time he used the Potential Trial, this force was silent and took him away without him noticing.
But this time was different.
Chen Yu could clearly sense its presence.
He could even manipulate the power of the Unsurpassable Sacred Ground to repel it, making it return empty-handed.
However, Chen Yu did not do so. Instead, he went with the flow and even cooperated actively.
After a moment, the force of traction brought Chen Yu to a void, splitting into two parts.
One part fixed his body, while the other continued to pull his soul.
Chen Yu skillfully separated a part of his soul, following the force of traction, while the other part suppressed it with the path to the afterlife, remaining within his body.
Not long after, the departing soul completed its descent, and an ethereal body was instantly formed.
This body was that of a warrior, with a strength at around Rank Four and possessing 500 points of the professional attribute "Battle Qi."
The armor on his body was covered in fine scars, and the large sword beside him also had several obvious gaps.
Chen Yu looked around.
At this moment, he was inside a military tent.
There was only him in the tent, with a map hanging and a sand table set up.
It was not difficult to guess that his current identity should be that of a military officer.
On the table in front of him, there was a piece of snow-white A4 paper.
This white paper seemed out of place.
Inside the tent, everything else used to record information was parchment or cloth, without any traces of modern technological civilization.
Chen Yu picked up the white paper.
Several neat lines of handwriting appeared on the white paper.
"Trial Mission: The Hero's Anthem of the Guardian."
"Mission Difficulty: Abyss"
"Mission Content: Ensure that [Kailuo City] is not captured within three months."
After about ten seconds, a golden flame ignited, turning the white paper into ashes.
Last time, "Heaven's Way" also delivered the mission in this strange way.
It should be noted that "Heaven's Way" has always been concise and rigorous, prioritizing practicality over showing off.
It never tries to be cool or mysterious.
So why doesn't "He" adhere to the usual style and deliver information through "prompt sound" + "mission panel," displaying the mission progress in real-time?
If "Heaven's Way" didn't intentionally change its style, then He must not be unwilling, but "unable."
At this moment, Chen Yu's military tent was lifted.
A soldier ran in and said to Chen Yu, "Captain Salando, His Excellency the Warrior Commander summons you for a meeting."
"Okay."
Chen Yu stood up and followed the soldier out of the tent.
As he expected, outside the tent was a military camp, but it wasn't very large.
There were a total of about three hundred military tents.
In the center of the camp, the tallest tent was the meeting place.
At this time, more than forty warriors dressed similarly to Chen Yu were already standing in the central tent.
These warriors, including Chen Yu, held the rank of "Captain" and commanded 20-50 soldiers.
On the main case, a rough-looking armored warrior sat upright.
Chen Yu found a place to stand as he was told.
After him, more than ten warriors entered one after another.
Including himself, there were exactly sixty people, neither more nor less.
With everyone present, the warrior on the main case spoke:
"Everyone, I have received news that the damn Fallen have sent raiders again, bypassing the front line defenses and attacking our villages and towns."
"There are even Fallen disguised as refugees, infiltrating the frontline fortress Kailuo City, causing chaos."
The military tent immediately erupted in commotion.
Dozens of warriors were filled with righteous indignation.
"Despicable demons' lackeys!"
"How is this possible? The front line defenses are already so tight, yet these cunning demons can still invade?"
"These damn bastards! Let's have a face-to-face battle with them!"
"Kill all these cunning and shameless creatures!"
"Silence!" The warrior commander slammed the table.
"I gathered you all for this matter."
"The scouts have identified the route of the Abyss raiders and made detailed predictions of the locations they will attack."
"His Excellency the General has ordered us to intercept the Abyss raiders."
"All of you come here."
The warrior commander called dozens of warriors to a large sand table and began assigning tasks.
Flags representing the possible locations of the Abyss raiders were inserted into the sand table.
Each warrior was assigned two to three targets.
After receiving their tasks, the warrior captains left one after another.
Chen Yu also took the mission map and returned to his own tent.
Next to his tent were three larger tents belonging to his soldiers.
These soldiers were of average quality, with a total of 12 Rank Two and 19 Rank Three.
It seemed that they were all "small fry" and wouldn't be of much use.
Chen Yu didn't let them all follow him. He only brought a soldier familiar with the terrain and left the camp with the crowd.
Outside the camp was a plain.
You could see that there were military camps scattered at regular intervals, varying in size.
At this time, people and horses were constantly pouring out of most of the camps.
They should have all received the mission to eliminate the Abyss raiders.
"Choosing the Abyss difficulty is really related to the Abyss."
"It's almost the same scene as last time."
Speaking of the last potential trial, Chen Yu couldn't help but think of the little Saintess.
That clever and obedient child, he didn't know how she was doing after he left.
The world of the potential trial mission doesn't have the characteristics of a copy and is likely an independent world that shouldn't be refreshed.
