While Rick was talking to Nana, he saw a petite white figure slipping under the dining table. "Lumi! Come out quickly, your mother will get angry again when she sees her!" Rick leaned under the table and said. Lumi quickly climbed out after hearing Rick's words. Her delicate little face was stained with a lot of dust and looked dirty. "I know big brother won't tell mom!" Lumi said with a giggle and then nodded. Jumped into Rick's arms. Feeling Lumi rubbing against his chest, Rick smiled helplessly and said, "It's so dirty under the table, what are you doing there?" Lumi raised her little finger that had been wiped clean on Rick's clothes. Face said: "Look!" Rick looked at the two little hands raised by Lumi. In the clasped left hand, there was a poor treasure hunter. There was a gold coin lying quietly in the open right hand. Rick remembered that this was The one I dropped behind the table when I was teasing Lumi with it after dinner the night before yesterday and couldn't find it. Rick, who pays close attention to the mysterious mother and daughter, discovers that his mother Scarlett particularly likes to eat delicious food and has a huge appetite, while little Lumi prefers to collect shiny things such as gold coins and gold coins. Seeing Lumi actually using the famous Treasure Hunter to find a gold coin, Rick felt that his world was turned upside down in an instant. Although Lumi looked like he was eleven or twelve years old, Rick found that his mind was only about four or five years old. Year old look. "Lumi, guess how many gold coins I have in my hand?" Rick fumbled from his arms, clenched his fist and shook it in front of Lumi. "If you guess it right, give it to me?" Lumi's little head shook from side to side along with Rick's fist. "Well! If you guess right, I will give you both gold coins!" Nana, who was standing aside, rolled her eyes and was helpless at the pair of living treasures in front of her. "Hmm" Lumi frowned cutely and bit her finger, "I guess five!" "" Rick felt that the brain structure of people is definitely different, "Here, I still owe you three "A gold coin!" "Yeah!" This time, not only Nana, but also the treasure-hunting rat in Lumi's hand began to despair about his future. Is there really a future for following such a strange pair? After eating and drinking, Rick carried Lumi outside the castle. It wasn't because Rick exposed the true nature of the big bad wolf, but because Lumi felt that Rick's aura was very kind and she hugged Rick tightly without letting go. In the square in front of the castle, two square teams, one large and one small, were practicing. Rick took a quick look and found that they had already practiced very well. Compared with when he left, these guards were all equipped with brand-new kingdom standard equipment. It looks more uniform. Seeing Rick appear on the steps at the entrance of the castle, the commanders of the two formations immediately brought the teams to stand in front of Rick. "Yeah! Very good! You must be neither arrogant nor impetuous and keep this sense of discipline in mind. In two days, if you perform well enough, I will personally teach you a set of sword skills!" Rick looked at the people in front of him with satisfaction. The two square teams said. When Rick acquired the sword dance skill, he understood that it was a set of sword skills that matched the unique steps of the orc sword master. At that time, Rick had the idea of ????promoting this set of sword skills among his own guards. Why does it take two days? Because Rick has just acquired the skill of sword dance and he is not yet proficient in it "Okay. You can continue training after you rest for a while!" "Yes!" When they heard that the lord was going to teach him sword skills in person, the guards were all excited. , You must know that the Lord is a dragon-slaying warrior with extraordinary strength. There have been no rumors of anyone successfully slaying a dragon on the mainland for many years. After Rick finished speaking, he saw a large group of onlookers crowding under the steps and immediately thought of his idea of ??expanding the guards, "Good afternoon, fellow townspeople! I have a piece of news to announce to you now. In order to protect you, For the security of the town, this lord plans to expand the guard force. The initial plan is to recruit 150 female guards and 400 male guards. Both men and women are young people between the ages of 18 and 28. If anyone wants to join the army, please ask tomorrow morning. Sign up here at the gate of the castle. Also, please tell those who are not here." Hearing Rick's words, the townspeople below suddenly became excited, not to mention that the army has a fixed salary every month. Just after the military training in the past few days, the tall image of these guards has already penetrated into the hearts of the people in the town. Especially after they changed to new equipment yesterday, it made the young men and women feel itchy to see them. Men think that if they join the ranks one day, they will be disadvantaged whether it is bragging to their peers or dating the girl they like. Young women think that if they join the ranks of waitresses, they will be fine. A close encounter with the handsome and brave lord It was only after Rick's persuasion that these townspeople gave up.Plan to sign up. "I am going to try a new magic now. If you want to see it, you can come and watch the fun." Rick felt that if he could turn a big tree into a tree man in front of the townspeople, then he would be the best in the world. His prestige among the townspeople can definitely be improved. After all, the title of "Dragon Slaying Warrior" cannot stand up to scrutiny. So a large group of townspeople followed Rick towards a huge hemlock tree in the center of the square. Although they didn't know what the lord was going to do, everyone consciously stopped 50 meters away. Rick put Lumi on the ground and walked towards the hemlock tree. Rick spotted this huge hemlock tree at the first sight when he left the castle. It was 30 meters high and had a trunk that three people could hug. No one had ever wanted to cut it down. With the hardness of the hemlock tree, It is impossible to knock down a big tree without working for several months. Even if it is knocked down, no one knows what it is used for. Rick stretched out his right hand and pressed his palm tightly against the tree trunk. Rick felt that the trees he spawned were no different in nature from these ordinary trees, and he should be able to communicate with these trees that were not spawned by himself. After Rick established spiritual communication with the huge hemlock tree, Rick silently activated the "Power of Nature" skill, and then Rick felt his own energy being continuously injected into the thick tree through his palms. Among the hemlock trunks. At the same time, Rick felt that this big tree was also drawing a lot of energy from the earth. After a while, Rick began to sweat on his forehead. I originally thought it would be as simple as waving your hand in the game, and this skill in the game is not a type that consumes a lot of magic. Unexpectedly, in just a short time, one-tenth of the energy in my body was lost, and this big tree The tree showed no sign of turning into a tree man yet. "Wow! What is the Lord going to do this time?" "I don't know. Do you want to pull out the tree?" "It's possible! Look, the tree is moving!" Some sharp-eyed townspeople looked at it. The branches and leaves of the hemlock tree began to sway. "Alivealive" As time passed, some townspeople discovered that the shape of a face appeared on the trunk of the tree. When Rick lost nearly half of the energy in his body, he felt that the tree was waking up, and the spiritual communication between him and it became clearer and clearer. As the energy in Rick's body neared depletion, the hemlock tree transformed into a giant tree man. Rick vaguely felt that the energy in his body was not enough to sustain the tree man until he truly woke up. Rick was so horrified that he didn't know how to stop the injection of energy, and he didn't know what harm he would do to the tree man who was about to take shape by interrupting the process. "Hey!" A sigh of vicissitudes resounded in Rick's heart, "Thank you. I really want to walk around and take a look." Then Rick saw a green light flashing slightly at a certain point in the middle of the trunk. The emerald green heart-shaped object seemed to fly out through the trunk of the tree. The target is yourself. Rick felt that this was the life essence of the hemlock tree. Rick understood clearly in his heart that the hemlock tree saw that its energy was not enough to complete the entire awakening ceremony and wanted to sacrifice itself to save Rick. Rick was just about to stop the tree man when he felt a soft little hand on his back. Then a steady stream of energy entered the tree trunk through his body. After being replenished with energy, the awakening of consciousness, which was only a glimmer of energy away, was quickly completed. "Boom!" The onlookers felt that the ground was shaking. During the shaking, the ground near the hemlock cracked. Six or seven gaps nearly one meter wide appeared in the center of the square with the hemlock as the center. . The hemlock tree swayed and pulled its roots out from the ground into a pair of thick and winding tree legs. At the same time, its two largest side branches also slowly transformed into a pair of powerful arms. "Thank you! My friend!" The vicissitudes of words came out of the big tree's mouth with a strange taste. Rick smiled at it but didn't have the strength to speak. Lumi was lying in his arms and sleeping peacefully. Lumi really helped Rick at the critical moment. I don¡¯t know how Lumi could have such huge energy in her body at such a young age, which was enough to have ten of her own. One-third that much is at least the level of the sixth level. "Oh my god! Lord, this is so awesome. This guy must be thirty meters long!" "Absolutely, if you include the branches on its head, it must be more than 30 meters." "Look what you say. Yes, is that hair good? Who do you think has branches and branches on their head like you? " "Hahaha When you say that, I really wonder whether this big guy will be considered a person or a tree in the future. ?" "It's hard to say, it's hard to say" "I heard that Lord Lord a few days ago.I still don¡¯t believe that he killed a giant dragon. Seeing as how the lord asked a group of subordinates to kill a bunch of giant dragons, it¡¯s not a piece of cake! " "Hahahaha" Seeing the lord sitting cross-legged in front of this big guy, he didn't panic at all. The townspeople also plucked up the courage not to run away but gathered together to joke. After all, this kind of novelty was ordinary. It is a rare encounter in a person's life. Rick, who was resting with his eyes closed, suddenly felt that he was surrounded by a ball of warm energy. Rick opened his eyes and saw a large ball of light green gas surrounding him. A mellow breath of nature and green gaseous energy pour into the body from the pores of his body to replenish his energy. "Thank you! "Rick raised his head and said to the huge tree man. "Huh? What I should do, it feels so magical, I have never felt nature so close to me in thousands of years. "The tree man seems to have not completed the transformation of his role, and he seems particularly curious about the energy of nature that can be controlled. "What are your plans for the future? " Rick asked after seeing that this tree man was not a completely manipulated thing in the game and it didn't look like it would disappear after a while. "Hmm I don't know, although I want to go around. I walked around and looked at the scenery elsewhere, but my natural heart seemed to tell me that it was my duty to protect this place. And I think it's better to stay with you. This world is too strange to me. " "Well, Tundra Territory welcomes you to join. "Rick will not think that this big guy is a faggot. The fact that this green gaseous energy can quickly replenish energy is incredible enough. At this time, Lumi also woke up in Rick's arms. Come over. The green energy also completely replenished her lost energy. so high! " "Thank you, little girl! " "You're welcome! Lumi waved her white and tender hands, "Just help me fight in the future." The little guy told me that many shiny things are looked at by powerful guys. " "A fight? I've only seen other people play it, but I don't seem to be very good at it. "The huge tree man said with an embarrassed expression. "It doesn't matter. I can teach you! When the time comes, let's grab the shiny things and I'll buy you something good to eat. "Apart from collecting shiny things, the greedy little girl couldn't think of anything else to tempt people," but do you have a big appetite? If you eat too much, I can't afford to feed you, so I can only let my eldest brother take care of your food. "Lumi looked at the huge body of the tree man and suddenly thought of this problem. "This is no problem, I just drink water! "Even if the tree man becomes a human, he can't change the nature of the tree. The simple Lumi and the simple tree man got along quickly, and then the tree man put Lumi on his shoulders and the two went for a ride outside the town. " Rui After telling the townspeople that this giant tree man was a member of Twilight Town, Rick calmed the mood of the people and left the town alone to study the "Forest Eye" skill in a wide field of view outside the town. Rick chose his first target on the hillside. Rick climbed to the top of the ten-meter-high mountain and found that he could basically see the direction of the dusk forest from the top. With his previous experience, Rick was very relaxed. He established spiritual communication with the big tree, and after using the skill, Rick felt a dynamic image appear in his mind, as if he was watching this image with his own eyes. The area you can see from the top of the tree is even wider than what you can see with your own sight "Hahaha The main skill is to control the entire Lengshan Mountain within sight!" "Rick then placed 8 "Forest Eyes" on the commanding heights around Twilight Town and laughed unscrupulously. Rick asserted that no lord in the entire world can match him in terms of control over what happens in the territory. Just when Rick was about to set up the "Eye of the Forest" on a big tree further away, his vision suddenly went dark and he felt a sense of dizziness. After taking two deep breaths, he sadly realized that because of this. His own mental power is limited, so when the dynamic images in his mind exceed a certain limit, he will completely collapse Helpless, Rick had to reset the 8 previously selected points. It is not bad to be able to monitor the entire surroundings of Twilight Town. , at least I don¡¯t have to worry about unexpected attacks in the future. (To be continued.)
