Chapter 2112 Traces
Chapter 2112  Traces

In the study room on the second floor, Glennan still couldn’t contain his excitement as he set up a ladder and retrieved a long-preserved precious collection album from the top of the bookshelf.

“The outside world knows mostly about the tree spirit clan through the story of the Water of Life. It was probably several decades ago when a famous tycoon fell terminally ill. With the help of the Water of Life, his condition miraculously improved, and he was even free from illness thereafter, living happily until he peacefully passed away at the age of 200.”

“But that’s not the case. The Water of Life is just the tip of the iceberg for the tree spirits! Did you know? This world wasn’t what we saw before. Tens of thousands of years ago, our home was once a sea of trees, a world shrouded by giant trees! The tree spirits are the true rulers of this world!”

Glennan was a little excited. His hands were trembling as he carefully opened a yellowed book.

“According to the records, the tree spirits are divided into several special races. They are divided into four tribes: Leaf, Wood, Root, and Soul. Each tribe has different strengths.”

“At that time, the tree spirits controlled more than 80% of the world. Humans only lived in a corner and were threatened by natural threats.”

“At that time, neither humans nor the tree spirits had developed technology. Humans only learned the ability to speak under the guidance of the tree spirits. The entire world relied on nature and the tree spirits to operate.”

“At that time, humans signed a contract with the tree spirits and received the blessing of the tree spirits. They also swore eternal loyalty.”

Glennan sighed and said, “But one day, for some reason, the tree spirits underwent a huge change and gradually disappeared from the world.”

Hearing this, everyone looked at each other.

Disappeared? And there was a huge change?

It sounded very troublesome.

Fang Heng frowned as well. He suddenly had a bad feeling.

Could the disappearance of the tree spirits be…

Was it because of the progenitor vampire?

The exact time when the tree spirits disappeared was not certain, but thinking about it carefully, the time when the vampires entered the World of Forests was very likely the time when the tree spirits suddenly disappeared.

There might be some connection between the two.

If that was the case, there would probably be even greater trouble.

Fang Heng tried to change the topic to the mission by asking, “Do you know about the ancient sacred tree?”

The ancient sacred tree!

Hearing this, Glennan stood up from his chair and stared at Fang Heng with a strange light in his eyes.

“I knew it! I knew that the ancient sacred tree was real, right?”

Fang Heng looked at Glennan and signaled him to calm down.

“Tell me what you know first.”

Glennan took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He sat back down and flipped open one of the illustrations in the album. He continued, “In the legends, the ancient sacred tree was the one that supported the entire world. It was the source of power for the entire world, but…”

Glennan’s expression gradually darkened as he spoke, “With the disappearance of the tree spirits, the ancient sacred tree could no longer be found. Rumor has it that the ancient sacred tree had completely disappeared along with the disappearing tree spirits.”

“Yes.”

Fang Heng grunted and glanced at the game log. Unfortunately, the game didn’t give any new hints. It seemed like they hadn’t gathered enough clues.

“Can I ask you a question?” Glennan looked at Fang Heng cautiously and whispered, “Who are you guys?”

“Ahem.” Sandy coughed lightly and continued to bluff, “We are believers of the God of Nature. How much do you know about the disappearance of the ancient sacred tree? Or do you have any information that you can provide us with?”

When Glennan heard this, he immediately jumped up from his chair and shouted, “Yes! A lot of information is in the headquarters of the Tree Whisperers Alliance. Let’s go, I’ll bring you there now!”

At night, Fang Heng and his companions drove along with Glennan to a community center.

Even though it was already late at night, the community center was still brightly lit.

Everyone walked towards the community center.

Glennan continued, “The purpose of the Tree Whisperers Alliance is to protect the tree spirits. This is actually a covenant between humans and the tree spirit race from ancient times. If humans betray their original oath, the entire human race will suffer great punishment and face catastrophe.”

Listening to Glennan’s words, Fang Heng couldn’t help but scoff.

The explanation sounded somewhat contrived, with a hint of Holy Court indoctrination in it.

Glennan was the first to enter the community center. Fang Heng followed him into the hall.

Instantly, more than a dozen gazes in the hall turned to them. Their eyes were filled with excitement, suspicion, and prying.

Fang Heng looked at Glennan beside him.

Glennan scratched the back of his head awkwardly and squeezed out an apologetic smile, saying, “Erm, I’m sorry, only Stina has the key to the community center…”

“Are you Fang Heng?”

Before he could finish his sentence, a burly middle-aged man with a fierce expression suddenly interrupted. His sharp gaze pierced Fang Heng, and his tone was hostile.

“You’re that Fang Heng, right? Follower of nature?”

Fang Heng shifted his gaze to the middle-aged man and nodded at him.

“We’ve heard about you. Glennan is still young, we don’t want him to be deceived.”

The middle-aged man paused as if giving Fang Heng time to think. Then he said coldly, “I don’t know what kind of trick you’re playing. If you leave now and promise not to return, we can let bygones be bygones and pretend that nothing happened.”

“Alright, it seems that you still have doubts about us, if you have to witness it with your own eyes…”

Fang Heng then turned to look at Cleriway and nodded at her.

Cleriway clasped her hands in front of her.

“Tsk!”

In the next moment, a green book covered in green thorns appeared in front of her.

This clever move caused a slight change in the expressions of everyone inside the community center.

“Buzz…”

A faint green light bloomed from the Book of Nature.

Under the illumination of the light, the vines by the window began to grow rapidly!

“Chi chi, chi chi…”

In just a short while, the vines gradually spread into the room through the window, until more than half of the room was completely covered by the green vines.

Phew…

Cleriway heaved a sigh of relief and kept the Book of Nature.

She found it strange.

After experiencing it for herself, she realized that the consumption of natural science in this world was more than ten times that of her previous world.

This was only a low-tier natural science skill. If she used a high-tier natural science skill, the difficulty would increase even more.
