"Thank you, my lord." The Forest Elf Queen was overjoyed. She really didn't expect Lord Ximu to agree so readily.
"What do you need me to do?" Wu Chen asked with a smile. In the view of the lord, this is the prerequisite for gaining the allegiance of this elven tribe scattered in the Great Lakes Forest. So he had no reason to refuse.
"Ring of magic." The forest elf queen's answer was unexpected.
"The silent caster." Wu Chen thought of it. This must be somewhat consistent with the communication between the Sap Whisperer and the Sleeping Tree.
"Yes, sir." The words of the Forest Queen confirmed Wu Chen's judgment: "The spell will disturb the sleeping tree and cause the spell to fail. Only your ring mage can complete it without 'waking up' the sleeping tree. The soul journey of the sap whisperer. And infected the sleeping tree with 'Wild Hunt' and transformed into a tree spirit."
As the forest elf queen said, when necessary, the wood elf can launch a "wild hunting" skill similar to the druid's mad transformation. Transform yourself into a raging supernatural beast that roams around. Under the influence of magic, it can constantly change its form, killing and devouring all living creatures along the way. Even after killing all the prey, he will eventually turn to slaughter his companions who are also hunting in a carnival of "cannibalism".
Once upon a time, Wu Chen had the opportunity to see with his own eyes the supernatural beast that the wood elf transformed into after becoming "mad". It looks like twisted vines wrapping the souls of wood elves in the form of various beasts.
Common ones include: Wild Hunt Bear (Wild Hunt Bear), Wild Hunt Camel (Wild Hunt Camel), Wild Hunt Guar (Wild Hunt Guar (bipedal land frog)), Wild Hunt Horse (Wild Hunt Horse), Wild Hunt Forest Wild Hunt Senche (like a tiger), Wild Hunt Wolf (Wild Hunt Wolf). Without exception, they all seemed to be wrapped with vines.
According to the forest elf queen, the wood elves' wild hunting was irreversible before the "Green Pact" was signed. The Wild Hunt can be restored since worshiping Ifurui, the forest god. But the memory of the Wild Hunt will not remain. In other words, the wood elves will not remember what they did during the Wild Hunt. In addition to the after-effects of the Wild Hunt, this is also very much a self-protection mechanism. For the wood elf himself, not remembering often means it didn't happen.
According to the legend of Valen Forest, in the original era, Ivri gave physical form to all creatures in Nirn. When a wood elf summons the Wild Hunt, it forgets the form given by Ifurri and transforms into an unnatural form of chaos. This is a dangerous force that, once unleashed, is almost impossible to control and often has unintended effects. However, once the madness exhausts the magic power and vitality, even if one abides by the "Green Covenant" and believes in the forest god Yi Fu Rui, there is nothing he can do to save his life.
This is the mad form of the wood elf. The forest elves in Skyrim also have similar abilities, but because they have not signed the "Green Pact", the Wild Hunt is irreversible for the forest elves. Over thousands of years, they became increasingly localized through interactions with the Nords, and became forest elves of the Nord elves. They began to believe in Genales, the protector of travelers and sailors, the master of heaven, the goddess of storms, and the god of elements. In Skyrim, Genales is affectionately called "Kyne" by the Nords. It represents good omen and good luck. She is the widow of the Holy Spirit of the Sky and Lorkhan, and the mother of all mankind. Her tears in memory of Lorkhan turned into raindrops. The Nords firmly believe that it was Genet who taught humans how to roar to fight against Alduin's tyranny.
As the mother goddess of Skyrim, Genet possesses multiple divinities. Therefore, the emphasis that forest elves believe in is the master of heaven, the god of elements, the goddess of storms, travelers and sailors, and the protector, good omen and good luck. At the same time, he believes in Talos, the ninth Holy Spirit as God the Father.
Gine and Talos are the two most important beliefs of the Nine Holy Spirits in Skyrim.
It is precisely because of their belief in Jinai that the forest elves have gradually forgotten their innate wild hunting ability and at the same time obtained: "Wild Hunt Transform". Using the elemental magic given by Jinai, they will be known as "Wild Hunt Transform". The nature-guarding dryads transform into powerful lurcher guardians: Water guardians, Fire guardians, Wood guardians.
Forest elves use water, fire, and wood, three series of alchemical potions, to instill the power of different elements into the tree spirits, and give birth to tree spirit guardians to protect the tribe. The specific alchemy formula is:
Thunderbug bellies and hive seeds can create a fire guardian, hive seeds and dew bugs can create a wood guardian, thunderbug bellies and dew bugs can catalyze a water guardian (Thunderbug bellies and hive seeds make a fire guardian, Hive seeds and dew bugs make a wooden guardian, Thunderbug bellies and dew bugs make a water guardian).
Of course, this is just the result of the "Wild Hunting Transformation" applied to the most common tree spirit. The extraordinary sleeping tree is likely to be transformed into a powerful boss-level tree spirit.
Wu Chen is also looking forward to this.
What are you waiting for? Wu Chen took the Forest Elf Queen and the Ring Mage on the Storm Outlook to the Sleeping Tree Camp.
This time, the team is still led by Dawn Warhammer Xili, the administrator of the lord's study, with the forest elf princess Sebelela as the guide, the daughter of Skyrim, Captain Mu Li, and the assembled members of the Storm Outlook: Xie Lisi and Lei Si ·Pabi, Tanisha, Rhiannon, Vivier, Zuleika, go together.
The previous adventure of taking the Storm Outlook to the Ice Pond Crypt to help the Lord retrieve the Pale Blade was also led by Dawn Warhammer Xili.
Just like the ladies of Gisethying in the gray stone castle, they each perform their duties. For similar outing adventures, it is agreed that Chengdu will be led by the administrator Dawn Warhammer Xili. Once the trial run of the New Sword Wind airship is completed, Wu Chen can simultaneously send out two expedition teams of Lord Ximu led by Storm Blade Anji and Dawn Warhammer Xili.
By then, the adventure of retrieving the Sawtooth Crown, the Snow Prince's remains, and the lost Snow Prince's helmet will begin quickly.
If everything goes well, it shouldn't take too long to end the Millennium Dragon Break.
"Sir?" During the flight, the forest elf princess Cybelela knocked on the lord's cabin door.
"Please come in." Wu Chen was talking with Mrs. Gisei Siying about the upcoming adventure.
The forest elf princess, who suffered from scaly bark lesions due to excessive intake of the sap of the Sleeping Tree, walked into the lord's cabin nervously.
"Please do as you wish, Sebelela." Wu Chen deliberately omitted the title of "princess" to show his closeness.
"Okay, sir." The forest elf princess mustered up the courage to take off her hood and reveal her alienated appearance in front of the lord and her closest female companion. Scaly skin is secondary, and having horns on the head is the biggest heresy.
"What's the matter with you?" Wu Chen asked with a smile.
"My lord, things are not as my mother thought." Princess Sebellela said in surprise.
However, it seemed that the Lord was not surprised at all: "So, what is the specific situation?"
"The reason why the sleeping tree cannot wake up is because it has lost the bond of its soul. Only by entering the sleeping tree and completing the soul journey can the sleeping tree spirit be awakened. This is also the meaning of the existence of the sap whisperer."
"So, you voluntarily put your soul into this journey that is destined to never return." Wu Chen understood.
"Yes, sir." Princess Sebellela's eyes were firm.
"Okay, Sabelera." Wu Chen nodded with a smile: "The mission of the sap whisperer must be completed. And I will definitely fulfill the promise I made to your mother. Maybe we can have the best of both worlds, who can What do you know?"
"So, don't you ask me to serve the "Golden Tree Law"?" This is the biggest question in Princess Sebellela's mind.
"Of course not." Wu Chen's expression was firm and his eyes were clear.
