Chapter 4 You are engaging in occupational discrimination!
"Coming!"
Next to the Well of the Moon.
Rhodes, who was praying, suddenly felt something in his heart and raised his head.
I saw little stars falling from the sky, quickly gathering above the Moon Well, and in an instant they turned into two thumb-sized seeds, wrapped in a thin light curtain.
Although this was not the first time he saw it, Rhodes was still amazed by this magical scene.
What pleased him even more.
This time the prayer brought one more seed.
Apparently he was credited with restoring the statue of Luna.
After getting the seeds and thanking the Moon God, Rhodes happily came to the edge of the altar and planted them next to the seedlings.
After a night of growth, the first seedling has sprouted new leaf buds, and its branches have grown a lot, but it is still unclear what kind of plant seeds it is.
Rhodes sat down next to him, his feet digging into the soil with his roots. While casting cultivation magic, he observed the changes in the seedlings and seeds, and gradually became immersed in it.
Slowly.
A ray of soft light fell and enveloped Rhodes' body, making his entire tree look tall and sacred.
This is the nature of the plant.
Every time late at night comes, plants will spontaneously absorb the essence of the moon to promote their own growth and restore life energy.
This is also a way for natural life to quickly replenish magic power.
Therefore, the time when the combat effectiveness of natural life is the strongest is not during the day, but at night, because there is a continuous supply of magic power.
It's the stupidest thing in the world to mess with elves and druids who believe in the moon god at night.
certainly.
This was before Luna disappeared.
Nowadays there are very few plants that can absorb the essence of the moon at night.
So seeing the halo on Rhodes' body, the little thing suddenly showed a puzzled expression on his face.
It stretched out its foot hesitantly, then retracted it.
After repeating it several times, he finally seemed to muster up the courage and cautiously approached Rhodes.
But intimidated by the aura of Rhodes, it still didn't dare to go too close. It only stayed more than ten meters away from Rhodes, hiding behind a protruding stone slab, exposing its head and staring closely at Rhodes' back. There is the essence of the moon.
Rhodes had noticed its sneaky figure a long time ago, pretended not to see it, and continued to cast spells on the seeds.
"..."
Didn't sense the danger.
The little thing has become a lot more courageous.
Moved two more stone slabs forward.
It wasn't until it got within ten meters that it imitated Rhodes and dug its roots into the gaps between the stone slabs, absorbing the moon essence escaping from Rhodes' body.
night.
Just spend it peacefully.
It wasn't until the next morning that the two seeds turned into buds and sprouted out of the ground under Rod's tireless cultivation.
[Successful planting, experience value +2]
[Successful planting, experience value +2]
…
[Demonized Tree Spirit lv2]
[Occupation: Gardener]
【Experience: 16/20】
[Normal magic: none]
[Professional Magic: Cultivation]
After reaching level 2 and improving his mental strength, Rhodes' magic recovery speed became much faster.
Coupled with the blessing at night, the efficiency is actually 50% higher than during the day, which directly adds 15 points of professional experience, and is only one step away from being upgraded again.
Think of this.
He looked back at the little thing pulling its roots out of the soil.
"Huh? Have you grown taller?"
Rhodes said in surprise.
He found that the little thing's branches seemed to be thicker than yesterday.
Upon hearing his words, the little thing suddenly ran behind the stone slab next to it like a frightened rabbit, exposing its head and staring at him warily.
Rhodes couldn't laugh or cry.
Do I really look that scary?
However.
Before he could say anything.
The little thing suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked in the direction behind him.
"Eaaah!!"
The little thing stood up suddenly, stretched out his hand and pointed anxiously behind him. He even ignored his own safety and rushed out from behind the stone slab, heading straight for the three seedlings.
Rhodes' complexion changed.
What does it think it will do to the seedlings.
But as soon as he turned around, he was startled.
Less than a hundred meters away from the altar, they saw a monster that looked like a dog but had an aura like black fire running towards them.
Target.
Astonishingly, they were the three seedlings he had worked so hard to plant.
not good!
Seeing the black beast's bloody mouth and its terrifying body that was not afraid of contamination, Rhodes quickly followed it without caring about what it was.
Obviously the little thing also knew the importance of those seedlings. With his small body, he rushed out of the altar without fear of death and faced the black beast straight away.
"roar!!"
The black beast roared and stared at the seedling. The black flames on its body were surging, as if it was going to burn everything.
In this polluted black land, there are still such creatures.
Not only is he not afraid of black soil, he is also extremely ferocious.
Head straight for the seedlings as soon as they appear.
“Could it be the main culprit behind the demise of woodlands?”
"Be careful little one!"
Before he had time to think about it, the little thing and the black beast collided with each other.
There was just a muffled sound, and the little thing with an obvious disadvantage in size was knocked away directly, but it was not injured. Instead, it had an extra layer of thorn protection on its body.
Wood-type primary defensive magic?
Rhodes paused slightly, a little surprised.
Could it be that the little thing is part of the guardian tree spirit?
As the most important ground defense force in the forest, the guardian tree spirit's combat ability is absolutely unquestionable. This also gives Rhodes hope of driving away the black beast.
Although he is a gardener and has no fighting ability, he can assist.
Small things are also plants.
Cultivation magic should also be effective.
After thinking about it, Rhodes stretched out his arm, and magic power gathered in his palm, turning into a breath of life to wrap around the little thing.
As expected, the broken thorn armor on its body began to repair at ten times the speed.
Fortunately, Rhodes has reached level 2.
The total amount of magic power has increased a bit.
A steady stream of life breath was injected into it, supporting the little thing to resist the erosion of the black soil. It once again struggled with the black beast, with roars and collisions happening one after another.
Rhodes took this opportunity and rushed over to protect the seedlings with his body while casting spells to support the battle.
Until then.
Only then did he clearly feel the aura of the black beast, which was no weaker than him, and was full of violence and bloodthirsty.
Every swoop and bite is extremely sharp, and it can also mobilize the black fire on its body to corrode life.
[Demonized Jungle Hyena lv2]
Sure enough, the level is the same as him.
I don’t know if the little thing can withstand it.
"Ouch!"
While thinking.
The black beast suddenly let out a scream.
The little thing's throat was actually cut open by the arm that turned into a branch, and it staggered backwards. Then it flicked its tail and flew the little thing away. Most of the thorn armor was broken, but it was not completely dissipated.
There is a chance!
Rhodes' eyes lit up.
Seeing the hope of victory, he increased his magic output, and the breath of life that was visible to the naked eye was poured into the little thing without money to repair the armor.
Little things take chances.
As soon as it hit the ground, it shot out again, with a pop, directly piercing the black beast's head, causing the black beast to struggle crazily on the spot.
Finally, when Rhodes was about to run out of magic power and became dizzy.
His movements stagnated, and he fell straight to the ground.
"Come back quickly!"
Upon seeing this, Rhodes rushed out of the altar and brought back the little thing that was already covered in bruises.
And the black aura on the dead black beast slowly disappeared, turning back into an ordinary jungle hyena with a moon mark on its head.
Subsequently.
It turns into energy and dissipates completely.
One of them swished into the little thing's body, making its originally weak aura suddenly become stronger.
Rhodes was stunned.
Wait a moment.
And what about me?
Does the assistant have no human rights?
He worked so hard as a support, and he still had some experience, but in the end he got nothing.
Can't gardeners defeat monsters and level up?
This is professional discrimination!
Rhodes cursed, but still brought the seriously injured little thing to the Moon Well, fed it a ladle of Moon Spring water, and took a sip himself to replenish his magic power.
There are not many springs in the first place.
After this battle, it finally bottomed out, leaving only the last few drops.
“It would be nice if the output could be higher.”
Rhodes thought greedily, while recalling what just happened with a serious look on his face.
After experiencing this black beast attack, he found that this place was not as safe as he imagined, and he might encounter danger at any time.
With his current weak situation, even the more advanced black beasts could not stop him, so he had the idea of mass-producing guardian tree spirits using the Moon Spring.
But the yield of Moon Spring is extremely low.
In addition, there is no way to resurrect the body without a complete body, so we can only give up temporarily.
So there's only one thing he can do now.
That is to seize the opportunity to plant and improve your level!
Think of this.
Rhodes stood up and went to the three seedlings to continue casting spells.
