An invincible journey starting from a different race

Draw your sword and charge!

They thrust their swords fiercely into my grandmother's body.

My grandmother did not resist. Instead, she spread out all her branches and let the sword penetrate her completely defenselessly.

At that moment, an unprecedented feeling surged through my grandmother's body, making her moan in a way that sounded like both pain and joy.

But... there is no way to go further.

The sword is stuck.

Although the grandmother herself had no intention of resisting, she was simply too powerful. Even if she was completely defenseless, even the most basic armor would not be easily penetrated.

Moreover, my grandmother had never experienced a battle in her life, and her armor had never been damaged. Moreover, because it had stood for thousands of years, it could still stand firm even under this level of attack.

Grandmother lowered her head, looking at the still-struggling Tianting, and asked softly, "Is it over? Actually, this is quite good. I'm... quite satisfied already."

End?

This is just the beginning, how could it possibly end here!

At this moment, the three of them roared in their hearts almost at the same time.

"You think we are Ganqiu!"

They roared in their hearts, but the Tianting was speechless. However, Grandmother could still feel their determination.

Because the Tianting has no intention of giving up.

After the first attack failed, the Tianting took a step back, and then quickly launched a second attack - drawing the sword and sprinting forward again.

Because time was really limited, all the various fighting methods that were originally planned to be tried were deleted, leaving only the most original and effective one.

Sprint, sprint, and sprint again!

If you can’t break the armor once, try it twice. If you can’t break the armor twice, try it three times!

We must break through!

But even such a simple action, when repeated over and over again, puts a heavy burden on the body.

Moreover, due to the shortage of people, each person has to be responsible for more areas.

Bruce is the strongest and is responsible for supporting the legs of the huge body of the Thunder.

Jer was the most meticulous, responsible for holding his grandmother's vines tightly against his hands.

Stank is the most perseverant and is responsible for the waist of the Thunder's offensive.

Therefore, every time they sprint, the three of them have to bear enormous pressure. If they hadn't applied the BUFF in advance, they would have collapsed after one or two sprints of this level.

But all three knew that they were not the ones under the most pressure.

The most stressful thing is definitely the "sword" that Aesop is responsible for.

After all, the three of them are just tools, and the only thing that can truly break through Grandmother's armor is Aesop's sword.

He had to stay strong at all times so as not to break under the enormous pressure from his grandmother.

All three of them knew this, so they wouldn't give up until Aesop could no longer hold on. After all, wouldn't that mean they were no match for Aesop?!

Here! Master! Go! Ah!

The three of them cried out silently in their hearts, and then rushed towards their grandmother again and again.

The battle lasted for most of the day, but they were unable to break through Grandmother's armor.

This huge gap in strength made the three of them feel desperate, and their strength was finally almost exhausted.

The huge body of the Tianting was trembling slightly, and this arrogant puppet seemed to be about to collapse in the next second.

Grandmother lowered her head, looked at the Sky Thunder, and said softly, "Enough, enough. I have... barely begun to understand that fighting is indeed a joyful thing. You can stop now."

...but, do you only realize it reluctantly?

The three of them felt very unwilling, but it seemed that there was no other way.

Aesop...can't hold on any longer, right?

After such a long battle, even the sharpest sword would be broken.

Just as they were about to give up, they were stunned when they saw azure runes suddenly light up on the sword.

Could it be that... Aesop had found time to carve runes on his sword during the fierce battle here?!

With the blessing of the rune, the sword, which was already full of wounds and seemed to be about to break in the next second, regained its vitality.

The tip of the sword throbbed slightly, like a throbbing blood vessel, eager for the final battle.

Grandmother noticed this as well and was slightly surprised. "You guys... still want to try? If you do it again, the sword will break."

At this moment, the passion of the three people seemed to have been reactivated by the rune that suddenly appeared.

So-called men,

Even if you know that it might break, you must still draw the sword resolutely!

You absolutely cannot retreat here!

Go, Aesop!

The three of them roared in their hearts, and then exerted force at the same time, stabbing the sword, which was almost at its limit, into the grandmother's body again.

Grandma's eyes widened instantly.

Because this sword directly penetrated all her armor and completely pierced her body!

This is a sword that pierces through the stars!

This is... an unprecedented experience!

Finally, someone was able to hurt her body.

Finally, someone was able to make her body bleed.

At this moment, my grandmother felt that the blood in her body that had been dormant for thousands of years was ignited in an instant.

Just like her life, it blossomed in the final moments. Those huge, weathered, and dilapidated vines burst open in an instant.

But, there was no pain... Oh, I can't say there was no pain at all, but compared to the feeling that came like a tide afterwards, it was nothing.

Only at this moment did my grandmother feel that she had truly understood life.

It's almost over.

The final joy also burned out the grandmother's last energy, but she did not regret it. Instead, she lowered her head, looked at Tiantinghao who was half-kneeling on the ground, and said softly.

"Thank you."

……

ended.

When her grandmother's body disappeared, Ivy, who had witnessed the whole process, felt extremely sad.

She originally thought that she would be sad and upset because the elder who raised her and was like a living fossil had passed away. She thought that she would cry uncontrollably like the little girl.

But she didn't, because when her grandmother's body disappeared, the divine body bloomed like fireworks, and then fell like rain. She seemed to be able to feel her grandmother's joy from the rain.

Only then did she realize that her grandmother had probably really left with a smile.

She may not have been so happy for a long time.

To unload the burden of a thousand years and pass away quietly in extreme joy, isn't this a kind of happiness?

If you are happy, why should you be sad about your grandmother's passing?

With this thought in mind, Ivy lowered her head and couldn't help but smile.

I couldn't help but chuckle.

At this time, the rain began to fall again in the forest. Although it was not spring, the rain was as comfortable as spring rain. However, it got heavier and heavier, and soon the ivy was soaked.

Then, heavy footsteps sounded behind her, and every step made the earth tremble.

Soon, Ivy could no longer feel the rain falling on her, but the rain had not stopped, someone was just blocking it for her.

This feeling of being protected from the wind and rain instantly reminded Ivy of the time when she was young and with her grandmother. At that time, her grandmother also used her huge vines to help Ivy block one heavy rainstorm after another.

Ivy never said thank you then, but now, she wanted to say it.

So she raised her head and opened her mouth: "Thank you..."

He was halfway through saying the word "thank you" and couldn't continue.

Because she thought that the person standing behind her was the Tianting.

But she didn't expect that it was the "Sword" of the Tianting that shielded her from the rain.

186 Norn: Because this is the master's mission

"Thank you all for your hard work on this trip. Everything is over now."

The next day, facing the group of four who came to say goodbye, Ivy, who had calmed down, spoke to them calmly.

"This is what you all deserve. Please accept it."

As she finished her words, her dryads arrived bearing several trays. The gifts for Stank, Jer, and Brutz were money, while the one for Aesop was a small, quaintly wrapped wooden box. Aesop took the box, but didn't rush to open it. Instead, he looked up at Ivy and asked thoughtfully, "Your magic has improved a lot. Is it because of Grandmother?"

Ivy was not surprised that Aesop could see it. After all, after his grandmother passed away, there was no one in the entire Yor Forest who was more powerful than Aesop. It would be strange if he couldn't see it.

Ivy nodded slightly and said, "Although Grandmother has passed away, her power hasn't dissipated. Instead, it's been shared among countless descendants of the forest. This is a unique characteristic of forest descendants. In the forest, the body of every elder who passes away becomes nourishment for those who come after them. So, Grandmother didn't leave her power to me alone, but to everyone."

Aesop nodded thoughtfully.

Ivy was already very strong now, several notches stronger than she had been a few days ago. According to her, she was definitely not the only one whose strength had increased.

The Yor Forest lost the mythical creature, Grandmother, but gained more powerful intermediary forces. It's unclear whether this is a good thing or a bad thing...

But what does this have to do with me?

Aesop did not forget why he came here, and directly opened the small box given to him by the tree demon, and the remaining three people immediately surrounded him.

Everyone has seen money and other things a lot. Although they still need it, otherwise they can't enter the Nightmare Shop, it's not worth being too surprised. What they care about more is the secret treasure in the Yoel Forest, which is said to have infinite energy and the power of nature that can be unleashed with a golden gun!

Men, who doesn’t pursue eternity?

The contents of the box were what they imagined to be the power of nature. Although they looked like ordinary stones on the outside, even Stank, who was the least sensitive to magic, could sense a wonderful smell from them. Just sniffing it could make people feel refreshed and relaxed.

It really is a treasure.

"How do I use this thing?" Stank couldn't wait any longer and asked Ivy directly.

Although it is not his own, his brother's things are his things. In this world, the only thing that cannot be loaned out between brothers is the wife, but they don't have a wife, so there is no scruple at all.

"How should we use it? You've got me thinking." Ivy fell into thought. "We usually bury it in the soil beneath our feet. This way, the surrounding tree spirits—no, all creatures that rely on the soil for nutrients—get more nutrition, allowing them to grow more vigorously, becoming taller and stronger."

Stank said "Oh!" twice. "I see. Is this what they call an invincible golden spear? Then where should we put this thing? We're not dryads, so we don't need soil."

Before Ivy could answer, Aesop asked tentatively, "In the buttocks?"

The expressions of several people changed immediately.

They turned to look at the fist-sized force of nature in the box, thinking about what Aesop had just said, and suddenly felt a pain in their buttocks.

Damn it! Is it necessary to pay such a high price just to obtain eternal, unfading power?

No wonder the poets have always said that great power often comes with risk.

But this risk is too painful, isn't it?

So should I use it?

Looking at the tangled expressions of the others, Chang Chunchun said speechlessly, "What you call the 'Golden Gun', is it the 'Golden Gun' that I understand, with color?"

Seeing several people nod, Ivy said unhappily, "Sorry, the power of nature never has those weird effects."

Several people were shocked: "What can it do?"

"For you humans, the benefits are also quite significant," Ivy said. "For example... it can prolong life and moisturize the intestines and promote bowel movements."

Several people:"……"

Aesop thought for a moment, handed the Force of Nature back, and said, "Then you should pay me back."

Ivy's mouth twitched slightly, and then she roared inwardly: "That's enough! This is our forest's secret treasure! You actually want to use it as a tool for X Yang! After finding out it doesn't work, you actually want to return it!"
