BXBX NOVEL Chapter 103 - 76 Treehouse Village (Seeking
“So…”
Bailuo asked, “What about weaknesses?”
“Trees fear fire, which is quite normal.”
The weakness of a Tree Elf is fire; this was not a surprise to Bailuo, who had anticipated it: “We’ll just need to be more careful in the future to prevent enemies from using fire attacks.”
“Indeed.”
Uncle: “It’s not a big issue.”
“But bloodline is just bloodline, even though Miracle Power is strong, we mustn’t forget about our own learning and abilities,” said Uncle, “I plan to create some special professions for the Tree Elves to help them establish a power system for rapid growth.”
“That’s great!”
Uncle is still that Uncle, not cheating, just omnipotent.
Uncle: Is it difficult to design a few professions for Miracle Race?!
“Additionally, there’s even better news.”
Uncle told Bailuo that just yesterday, the Tree of Life that the Tree Elves had planted over the years all grew to maturity overnight.
“The fruits on those trees, the Tree Elves have experience, and Brother Andrew after assessing, said they could fall at any moment.
“New Tree Elves? How many? How many are there?”
Bailuo was excited; the Tree Elves had become his Miracle Race, and each new one was a fiercely loyal follower.
“At least two hundred.”
“Two hundred!!!”
Bailuo had not expected there to be so many; Uncle said, “Not just you, even
Brother Andrew got quite the shock this morning.
“So, have they been born?”
“The Tree Elves have experience, you can rest assured, Xiao Luo,” said Uncle,
“Actually, I’d like to see for myself as well.”
“Then let’s go!!”
Hearing such good news, Bailuo couldn’t stay put and immediately took Uncle to the Treehouse Village where the Treant Race lived.
There, the Tree Elves had already transplanted all the saplings of the Tree of
Life.
After more than a month of construction and decoration, the Treehouse Village had dramatically changed its appearance.
By the time Bailuo arrived, he saw the village filled with large trees that shone like emeralds, the very treehouses where the Tree Elves lived.
On the lush green grass, flowers bloomed brightly.
On the forest path-like roads, they passed through arches connected by branches laden with fresh green leaves.
Bailuo lowered his head and saw mushrooms at the corner.
They were half the height of a person, emitting a faint blue glow, which made the otherwise dim path due to the dense foliage quite bright.
Green, pink, orange…
Mushrooms of various sizes and shapes seemed to sense Bailuo’s arrival, lifting their heads to reveal their adorably silly faces.
They waved their little hands at Bailuo, shaking their heads and swaying their bodies, looking utterly cute.
Following behind Bailuo, Bai Yino couldn’t help but reach out to touch one.
“Pop.”
The little mushroom didn’t understand, but it was pulled up by Bai Yino.
Then…
“Amu!”
“Wa-Wa-”
Luckily, Bailuo was quick to react, swiftly taking the weeping mushroom Fairy from Bai Yino’s arms: “You can’t eat this, can’t eat this!
“Can’t eat it?”
Bai Yino: “Such a big bun.”
“Biyoyo–”
Mushroom Fairy (weeping): Shivering
Bailuo properly educated Bai Yino before allowing her to replant the Mushroom
Fairy back to its original spot.
“Let’s continue moving forward.”
Uncle motioned for them to follow him deeper into the forest.
“Dingling- Dingling-”
Branches stretched from the treehouse to the edge of the street, dangling various colored flowers that resembled ‘Phoenix-tail Orchids.’ When the wind blew, they chimed with a clear bell sound.
“Ding-ling-ling.”
Bailuo reached out and touched a strand, feeling its smooth, warm texture.
He was reminded of the small lanterns strung up in the old streets during festivals in his previous life. Like those lanterns, these ‘Phoenix-tail Orchid Dangdang Flowers’ also made the entire street feel warmer and more enchanting.
Even the naive and adorably foolish Bai Yino faintly sensed the serene atmosphere here.
She took out a steamed bun from her bosom and started gnawing on it.
Bai Yino: Steamed buns, the power to calm all things
“Your Majesty!”
Lu Anya and Anderson had already sensed Bailuo’s presence. The siblings immediately came forth with a group of Tree Elves to greet him.
“No need for formalities.”
Unfortunately, that was in vain, as the Tree Elves revered Bailuo like a deity, and they valued etiquette highly, so the formalities were unavoidable.
Moreover, they had directly changed their address to ‘Your Majesty.
Because in the hearts of the Tree Elves, only Bailuo was the true and supreme King.
“Please rise.”
Bailuo had everyone stand up before he asked, “How are the offspring of the
Tree Elves doing?”
“Thank you for Your Majesty’s concern.”
Lu Anya, as the chief, stepped forward to explain: “The children have been born, a total of 260.”
“Where are they?”
“Where are the people?”
Bailuo was very excited, for how could he not be happy about the birth of new life?
“This way, please. Your Majesty and the elder, follow me.”
Lu Anya led Bailuo to a huge ancient tree. She introduced, “Upon discovering the growth of the Tree of Life, Grandfather immediately gathered our people and used the power of life to shape this enormous ancient tree.”
“We call it the Tree of Life, akin to a human nursery.
This Tree of Life was immensely colossal, overshadowing the sky.
It had an excellent location, situated right in the center of the Tree Elf land.
In the middle of the lake in the Tree Elf territory was a small island, and the Tree of Life stood tall upon it.
“Your Majesty, please follow me.”
Lu Anya extended her hand, summoning a green magic wand (over a meter long).
“Thud!”
The wand struck the grass, and numerous sprouts grew at an astonishing rate. In just a few breaths, a small vine-woven boat was formed right before everyone.
“A magic wand, this is a magic wand, right?”
“Indeed, it is the magic wand from Your Majesty’s memory.”
The Tree Elves had received knowledge inheritance from Bailuo and knew he would like this, so they specially arranged this to welcome his arrival.
“Additionally, this is Life Magic.”
Lu Anya also knew that Bailuo loved magic, so she categorized the Treant Race’s spell abilities into magic as well.
The People of Yatun didn’t distinguish, calling it all magic, making it feel more intimate.
Soon, the small boat carried everyone to the heart of the lake where the Tree of Life was located.
“Your Majesty!”
“Your Majesty is here!”
“Is this our Majesty?”
Contrary to what Bailuo had imagined, as the gate in front of the Tree of Life opened, a large group of adorable little girls and boys swarmed out.
Their ages were very uniform, only about four or five years old, and each of them was incredibly cute to the extreme.
It turns out that the life cycle of Tree Elves is different from that of humans. Before the age of ten, Tree Elves slumber within the fruit of life.
The fruit of life is like a semi-transparent ecological pod that protects them inside and replenishes nutrients through the Tree of Life.
During this process, Tree Elves grow and develop on their own.
And when they are born, they come out appearing around four or five years old.
