Chapter 1143 - 1143 Growth
1143 Growth
Eh?
Ed was stunned.
‘I know’?
What was the meaning of this? What do ‘you’ know?
What about the follow-up cooperation?
I worked so hard to help you last night, but it was all in vain?
He didn’t even want to say a few more words?
Ed was a little angry.
Just as he was thinking, a player knocked on the door and rushed in.
With an excited expression, he shouted, “Boss! Boss! It’s done! There are some updates!”
“What?”
“Boss is still amazing! It was settled in one move! The people who were guarding the guild headquarters just now said that there were many people sent by the feudal lords outside the headquarters. They were all here on the feudal lords’ orders with some gifts to express their apologies for last night’s incident, saying that it was all a misunderstanding.”
[Hint: The order for your arrest issued by the feudal lord, Lord Brent, and the other feudal lords of the Empire has been canceled.]
[Hint: Due to the rumors in the outside world, your favorability with the various feudal lords has increased slightly.]
[Hint: As part of the rumors has been clarified, the player’s friendship level with Lord Brent has been restored. The current friendship level has reached ‘amicable’.]
[Hint: As part of the rumors has been clarified, the player’s friendship level with Lord Brent has been restored. The current friendship level has reached ‘amicable’…]
When he saw the notification on his retina, Ed could finally put his mind at ease.
He calmed down and carefully read the game log description, and his expression gradually turned from dark to bright.
Good!
Not only was the wanted order canceled, but their friendship level had also increased slightly!
Ed was glad that he was smart enough to not make the wrong move last night.
If he had gone against the feudal lord of the Land of Plague last night, not to mention recovering his friendliness with the feudal lords, he might even have lost his guild.
After calming himself down, Ed continued to ask, “What’s going on? Speak clearly.”
“It’s said that the Land of Plague said that they were grateful for the help of the Prilla Mage Guild to retrieve the magic cores from the barbarians. Now, the feudal lords outside have withdrawn their wanted orders for us.”
This was great, he was finally free from the blame.
Ed didn’t pay much attention to the details of the Land of Plague’s claim that they had snatched the magic cores back from the barbarians.
It was just an excuse.
“President, is there something strange?” Sarwen asked with a frown.
He had just been treated coldly by the Central Federation after begging for so long. How could the matter be resolved so quickly?
It was so simple?
It felt weird.
“The Federation’s attitude towards us was very cold just now,” said Sarwen, puzzled. “Why are they suddenly helping us?”
“Yes, it’s not hard to guess.”
Ed nodded and continued, “What the Federation means is that they already know our sincerity, so they helped us solve this problem. As for our future cooperation, they still want to see if we have enough strength.”
“In my opinion, this time, the Federation’s Project Elegy is very grand. They are very confident in their own capabilities, too, and may not want any outsiders to join them. They may also be testing us.”
“Boss, I understand. So what’s our next step?”
Ed gave Sarwen a look that said ‘do you even need to ask’.
“Of course, we have to seize the opportunity to cooperate with Lord Fang Heng and Her Highness Mingyue.”
As he said that, Ed looked at the other subordinate who reported the news and asked, “Is there any movement from Lord Fang Heng’s side?”
“Ah, yes. Other than clarifying the matter, the Land of Plague has also invited the various feudal lords of Griffin City to visit the construction of the mage tower. I heard that the ghost tower will be completed this afternoon. The Mage Guild’s President Randolf will personally head over to inspect the construction.”
“Alright, let’s go and take a look. Remember to prepare a gift.”
….
In the Land of Plague, Fang Heng stood in front of the sacred tree Abe Akaya.
The sacred tree, Abe Akaya, seemed to have sensed the black stone brought by Fang Heng and was in a happy mood.
“Yes, I prepared it for you.”
“Chi Chi Chi…”
The roots extended from the ground, tightly wrapped around the black stone, and dragged it underground.
“Buzz…”
The sacred tree emitted a faint light.
Specks of green light circled around the tree, and the entire tree exuded a vibrant vitality.
Fang Heng felt that part of his fatigue had also been eliminated.
The trunk grew up again, and the dome made of branches and leaves spread out rapidly.
A line of game prompt appeared on Fang Heng’s retina.
[Hint: The sacred tree Abe Akaya has absorbed a high concentration of special energy and is currently in a rapid growth state.]
In the blink of an eye, the entire area covered by the vines spread outward at an accelerated speed!
Outside the Land of Plague, Ma Xiaowan was leading the Chambers of Commerce towards the Land of Plague.
The various feudal lords from the Empire and the Vice President of the Mage Association, Randolf, were also with her.
The entire team already had a few hundred people.
The feudal lords were in a good mood, and they were discussing the ghost tower that was about to be completed in low voices.
In just two days, the news that the Land of Plague had defeated the invading barbarian army spread throughout the entire Empire. Even the sacred tree in the Land of Plague had been rumored to be a God.
It was said that the Land of Plague defeated the barbarian army with the power of the sacred tree.
Reyne was one of the visitors who had come with them, and he had another hidden identity. He was actually the person in charge of the Empire’s royal family’s Intelligence Agency in Hani City.
Earlier today, the royal family needed information related to the Land of Plague.
However, the information he could provide was minimal.
The royal family was very dissatisfied with this and ordered him to immediately step up the investigation.
Reyne felt wronged.
In all honesty, it had only been two days since the Land of Plague evolved from a small village!
Who would have thought that things would turn out like this in just two days?
It wasn’t that Reyne had never tried to get people to investigate in secret, but the people he had sent to investigate would be deterred by the vines from within the forest as soon as they got close to the forest.
The entire Land of Plague was like an iron bucket that no one could enter.
Helplessly, Reyne could only obtain a small amount of information from the Four Seas Trading Company and the feudal lords who had cooperated with the Land of Plague.
This time, he had spent a lot of effort to accompany a feudal lord into the Land of Plague for a tour.
Reyne raised his head and looked at the towering tree in the middle of the Land of Plague in the distance. An indescribable shock rose from the bottom of his heart.
How could there be such a huge tree?
“That must be the rumored sacred tree of the Land of Plague.”
“Yes, that’s right. A sacred tree. I’ve never seen such a huge tree before.”
“I heard that this tree has spirituality.”
“I’ve heard about it too. It can even help us defend the city…”
There were also quite a few people on the team who had come because of the tree’s reputation.
Hearing this, everyone raised their heads and discussed in low voices.
During the day, the sacred tree in the Land of Plague was even more spectacular, as if it connected the sky and the earth!
Almost everyone was in awe of it.
