Intelligent creatures had benefits and drawbacks. The good thing was, intelligent creatures were definitely powerful. The downside was, with intelligence came personality, which could be a pain for players, like a certain creature named Anlicia.

So when faced with Nasir's request, Da Fei's first reaction was, of course, to satisfy it! The Emperor did not starve his soldiers, especially not in wartime! But the trouble was, how could he find time to find food during this critical period?

Da Fei went once more to the Eight-Headed Snake Space to check on the situation. At this time, the Eight-Headed Snake finally had a new development, it had raised six heads high!

Six heads! From five heads shaking all night long to six heads now, how many hours had passed? Even if the last two heads awakened faster, it would still take several hours, right?

Oh man, so it turned out that time was on Da Fei's side all along; he had been scaring himself the whole day yesterday! Damn, all right, Da Fei didn't want to wait idly in pain. He decided to seize the moment and set out, just like he seized the opportunity to go to sea and hunt Sea Monsters last night.

As for the target, of course, it would be the Demon Race rear base on the map. Da Fei would teleport the big ship over, then disembark the Tree Tank and let it go wild, eat and drink its fill.

However, better safe than sorry, what if the Eight-Headed Snake defied logic and suddenly awakened? Damn! If it did, that would solve Da Fei's dilemma over Deirdre's safety.

Suddenly, Da Fei realized why people got so troubled, not because they were egg-headed, but because they cared too much! Just like last night when Da Fei was at his wits' end, he only wanted to lie down and sleep. Sometimes people's desires were that simple.

Decided! Set out, quick action, hit-and-run.

But since it was a quick operation—Da Fei remembered something, then found Tachiusu, "I want to take this fortress and go demon hunting, will you assist?"

Tachiusu quickly responded, "Our Lumang Tribe has agreed with Lord City Lord to oppose Demons together in a military alliance, so as long as Lord City Lord's target is Demons, we will fight!"

Oh yeah! That's the word I was waiting for. Da Fei rejoiced, "Great, let's quickly make preparations to set out!"

Tachiusu added, "Lord City Lord, you have 31 Vine Demon recruitment slots in the Lumang Ancient Tree Fortress, should we proceed with recruitment?"

slots? After fertilizing the Ancient Tree that day, there was a burst that allowed recruitment of 10, then considering the current time, it meant the Vine Demon production rate was about one per game day? All right, that's sufficient.

Da Fei said, "Recruit them!"

—System Prompt: 31 Forest Vine Demon units have joined your army.

This was the long-lost Vine Demon Army. Da Fei, filled with emotion, checked the Vine Demon attributes once more:

—Forest Vine Demon: small-sized Spiritual Creature, Attack 11, Defense 7, Damage 6-11, Health 40, Mana 40, Attack Speed 12, Command Value 2 (Green), Magic Resistance 55%, Stamina 120, Special Skill: Flying Creature, Production and Transport, Vine Armor, Vine Control, Advanced Healing Technique.

Green Command Value 2! Nice, this was the benefit of my revered Vine Demon race reputation. Reverence reduced the Command Value of troops, allowing me to carry more soldiers. The purpose of bringing Vine Demons on this expedition was for their Production and Transport skill, especially since I was attacking a Demon Race rear base which must have plenty of supplies. No point in not looting.

Now, Tamilia was trying to load the Nasir Ancient Tree Fortress onto the ship. Normally, no matter how big the ship or what type it was, it could never transport the huge structure that was the Ancient Tree Fortress. But Flying was different, Flying had the Divine Domain of a Holy Vine Space!

Under Tamilia's intense spellcasting, a huge shimmering Space Gate appeared by Flying's dockside. Nasir Ancient Tree's enormous body waded into the river, moving toward the Space Gate. Even though the tree's lower half was submerged, it was still nearly as tall as Flying. But the problem was, the Space Gate was clearly not as big as the tree. Could it fit?

Da Fei watched with bated breath!

Closer, closer, the tree reached the Space Gate and stretched its huge hand through, the arm went in. However, the tree's sizable trunk did not go through with it, meanwhile, the Space Gate began to emit highly unstable fluctuations!

Tamilia shouted, "No! The Space Gate is very unstable, it's about to forcibly close! The current Holy Vine Space can't accommodate the entry and exit of such a large creature!"

Da Fei's jaw hit the ground! Damn, could you not sound so tragic, like being unable to give birth? At such a crucial moment, getting stuck at the door, wasn't this a deliberate test of patience? If it was like this, how could Da Fei ambush the Eight-Headed Snake? His original plan was to load the Ancient Tree onto Flying, sneak up to the Eight-Headed Snake, and then let the tree entangle the Snake. If he couldn't be loaded onto the ship, should he let the tree wade step by step to duel the Snake head-on? That's nonsense!

In fact, thinking back, when the manager of the Seven Cities Alliance personally came to Radiant City to collect the Demon Eye Skin, it was also through several giant mechanical arms poking through a Space Gate to retrieve the goods, meaning large objects really couldn't enter ordinary small Space Gates?

Now, Tamilia canceled the Space Gate and flew in front of Da Fei, apologetically saying, "Lord City Lord... it can't enter! The current Holy Vine Space's specifications are too low."

Damn! Isn't this just like moving a cabinet through a doorway? Can't go in vertically, should I try laying it horizontally?

Da Fei hurriedly said, "Let the Ancient Tree wade deeper, let it float up and float through the door! It can float, right? It's wood, isn't it?"

Tamilia hesitated, "This..."

At that moment, a low voice sounded, "The current Nasir is neither a ship nor an aquatic creature, nor is it just a simple tree. Tell me, what exactly do you want?"

Da Fei was startled, the ancient tree spoke again? But you are the Wisdom Ancient Tree; you must have a way, right?

Da Fei quickly said, "I want to put you into the Otherworld space on the ship, so I can take you to the region where Demons are, and let you have your revenge and eat to your heart's content!"

The ancient tree replied in a deep voice, "But do you think I can enter through this tiny Space Gate?"

Damn! You're the legendary Wisdom Ancient Tree that answers every question, and yet you're questioning me? Da Fei, frustrated, asked, "So do you have a way?"

The ancient tree angrily responded, "You idiot! Have you ever seen a tree chasing demons everywhere? Of course, you should capture the demons and bring them to me as fertilizer!"

—Ugh! Da Fei spat out a mouthful of blood! As a soldier under my command, how dare you call me an idiot? Why are you so arrogant? But, wasn't this indeed the normal way to do it? Da Fei truly was an idiot! But if the door problem isn't solved, what use are you to me?

The ancient tree then spoke in a low voice, "This ship is cursed by a Fire Demon; only by lifting the curse can it further grow. I also once suffered from a similar curse, and might know how to lift it, but I've lost too much wisdom and memory, so I must grow strong to recall. Do you know what to do?"

—System Prompt: You have received Nasir's quest "Collect Demon Fertilizer." Would you like to accept?

Da Fei twitched an eyebrow in astonishment! Damn, impressive! A soldier is giving a quest to their commander? Why did this give him a sense of being unable to control it?

Fine! As long as you are a soldier under my command, even with Master-level Leadership Skill, I'm not afraid you'll turn the tables! Accepted!

The ancient tree spoke again in a deep voice, "Very well, let me use my last bit of knowledge and power to teach you a skill!"

A golden glow flashed above Da Fei's head!

—System Prompt: You have accepted Nasir's quest "Collect Demon Fertilizer," and gained the Undead Witchcraft skill "Corpse Transport" taught by Nasir.

—Corpse Transport: An Undead Wizard Professional Skill, allowing you to transport enemy corpses as spoils of war.

Ugh! Da Fei spat out a mouthful of saliva! Damn, cross-profession skill teaching! As the legendary Wisdom Ancient Tree, anyone who visited it could learn something. This was truly a God-level Mentor, incredibly amazing!

With the skill teaching complete, the ancient tree's figure paused, and all its vines stopped moving, rooted quietly in the water.

Tamilia quickly said, "Lord, the ancient tree has exhausted all its power and entered a dormant state."

Da Fei nodded, "Okay, then let's set out quickly!" (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets at Qidian (qidian.com).
