Chapter 1966 Separation is Unfortunate
The Golden Tree Sea, once the world's greatest source of life, has always been shrouded in mystery. It resembles a reclining giant or a soaring dragon in the sky, with all living beings only able to glimpse a part of its grandeur.

Its transformations and maneuvers are earth-shattering, whether it's the invasion of the Anti-Tree of Life, the resistance against it by the Golden Tree Sea, or the movement of the Tree of Life to establish a Tree of Life barrier that spans across world R, all of which prove this point.

After all, its essence is a combination of Ishtar, the goddess of life, Ereshkigal, the lord of the underworld, the god of judgment among the twelve constellations, and Alfheim, the former leaf of the World Tree. It possesses great power and is also a treasure trove due to its life attributes.

The branches, leaves, and soil around the roots of the tree can all be incredibly powerful treasures of the Golden Tree Sea, and those that can be called the secret treasures of the Golden Tree Sea are naturally the treasures among treasures.

Hidden beneath the roots of the Tree of Life are ancient creature remains in amber, known as the treasures of the Golden Tree Sea. However, these are merely byproducts. The true treasures of the Golden Tree Sea are naturally related to the Trees of Life themselves.

The reason why the Golden Tree Sea is called the Golden Tree Sea instead of the Tree of Life is because those who are fortunate enough to see the Golden Tree Sea from a distance have discovered that it is a golden color.

The canopy of the Tree of Life, with its leaves directly exposed to sunlight, will turn golden over time. The tree is the first thing to transform the power of the sun into life force, and the leaves are the final link in that process.

This golden leaf is naturally the secret treasure of the Golden Tree Sea, and it is also an extremely rare item. Legend has it that a single golden leaf can revive a barren land, bring life to stagnant water, and even grant people longevity, allowing them to easily reach the limit of their lifespan.

However, transforming a leaf of the Tree of Life into a golden leaf is not a simple matter. First, only the Tree of Life in the Sea of ​​Golden Trees can do it. Second, it takes thousands of years to complete the transformation. During this process, the leaf will also become an important organ of the Tree of Life, and picking a golden leaf will have a significant impact on the Tree of Life.

The reason why the Golden Tree Sea is the source of life is that the nutrients of the Golden Tree Sea and the Tree of Life do not come from the earth, but from the sun in the sky. After obtaining enough nutrients from the sun through the leaves, the excess is then channeled to the earth, and the golden leaves are the part with the highest conversion efficiency.

The absence of a single golden leaf reduces the Tree of Life's ability to obtain nutrients and the amount of nutrients it can supply to the earth. When it no longer receives enough nutrients from the sun, it will turn around and demand nutrients from the earth.

Although the pros and cons have been clearly explained, many people are still tempted by the power of the Golden Leaf, thinking that with so many Golden Leaves, it wouldn't matter if they picked one or two.

Those who do this will naturally be regarded as enemies by the Golden Tree Sea and the Elf race, but there are many people who still yearn for the Golden Leaf despite such risks, and this has been the case from ancient times to the present.

The presence of Strangers, who already have a standardized method for entering the Golden Forest through the Hunter class, has exacerbated this situation. Some have accepted the quest, while others want it themselves. However, the appearance of Strangers has also greatly alleviated the problem, as Elves can also commission Strangers to retrieve the Golden Leaves.

Helping the Golden Tree Sea and the elves retrieve the Golden Leaf is a great achievement, and those who do so are rewarded handsomely, so many strangers are willing to accept such a request.

Of course, there have also been many cases of self-directed and self-acted situations. The elves knew perfectly well, but pretended not to know. As long as the Golden Leaf was safe, they didn't care how much of the Mysterious Amber, which was of little use to the Golden Tree Sea itself, was given.

The item that the elves allowed Blaze and Greenland to obtain this time is related to the Golden Leaf, and is one of the treasures of the Golden Tree Sea, namely the [Golden Dew].

As the name suggests, this is a dew that condenses in golden leaves. It contains a large amount of the components of golden leaves and is a special item that can be continuously produced as long as golden leaves exist.

A single drop of golden nectar can extend a creature's lifespan to the theoretical maximum of that species; it is also a powerful healing item with no side effects.

Judging by the size of the Golden Tree Sea, if the elves were willing to sell Golden Dew, they would be the richest beings in the world.

Unfortunately, the elves didn't do that. Being nearly immortal, they weren't sensitive to wealth, and Golden Dew wasn't something easy to collect or preserve. "I've heard some people talk about this quest. Golden Dew is a very delicate item; it spoils easily if you're not careful, so it needs to be preserved very carefully," Greenland explained to Blaze, who was following behind.

"It can't be placed in a shady spot; it needs to be in sunlight, but the temperature can't be too high..."

Greenland stopped in his tracks, not turning around, and said to Blazer with his back to her, "To be honest, you did a bad job this time. Sometimes, wearing your heart on your sleeve isn't frankness, it's arrogance."

"And this is under the premise that you know the other party doesn't like it. If it were an enemy, it would be one thing, but elves are not enemies."

“I understand.” Blazer nodded. He was fully aware of this as well. He didn’t make excuses but continued to listen to Greenland.

Sometimes Greenland's words can be hurtful and harsh, but good medicine tastes bitter, and his sharp words are only because he has made a mistake.

"To be honest, if I hadn't stepped in to smooth things over, things would definitely have gotten out of control."

"I do not deny."

"Do you know why?" Greenland turned to look at Blaze, whose cat-like eyes, rumored to lead straight to hell, reflected Blaze's image.

"Because you want to achieve a result that makes everyone happy. You don't want Catherine to die, you don't want the fallen elves to be sad, and you want the elves to accept what you've done."

"But this process will certainly not be simple. Catherine's ideas, the fallen elves' ideas, and even the idea of ​​transforming into this golden sea of ​​trees will collide with each other, and problems will arise one after another. Perhaps you can solve them all in the end, but you cannot guarantee that you will not deviate from your original intention."

"You want everyone to be happy, which is great, but you also have to remember that you can't always be this lucky."

Blazer shrugged helplessly.

"Do you have any suggestions, teacher?"

“It’s very simple.” Greenland, who had just been very serious, shook his head and said, “A master once said that it is too difficult for everyone to be happy, especially when there are conflicts between happiness, but it is very simple for everyone to be unhappy.”

"Everyone's misfortune is divided into each person's small misfortune. These are small misfortunes that everyone can rely on each other to persevere through. Just like life, which is not good to begin with, it will eventually pass."

"You can't always protect everyone without getting hurt yourself."
