"Is this the sacred thorn?" Nalant was stunned when he heard this.
This plant does look a bit messy like thorns, but the problem is that there are no thorns on its branches?
This can also be called a thorn, I am afraid it is from cheating!
"Sir, the sacred thorn is very magical. First of all, it can only grow spikes after two years of growth. In addition, there is a condition for it to grow thorns, that is, it must have enough death energy."
"After enough death energy is replenished, it will begin to appear extraordinary. First it will emit a soft white light, and then it will successfully grow long thorns. Then you can use it to deal with dark creatures!"
"So troublesome?" This was the first time Nalant had heard of such a plant.
"Yes, sir, it was also because of the spread of death energy in the Holy Continent. Later, people discovered the existence of the sacred thorn, and then discovered that it has restraint on dark creatures and death energy."
"As long as dark creatures hit the sacred thorn tree, their death energy will be absorbed by the sacred energy of the sacred thorn tree, and then cause continuous damage!"
"Of course, the most important use of sacred thorns, apart from harming dark creatures, is to prevent the land from being eroded by death."
"When the space cracks of dark creatures open, a large amount of rich death energy will be diffused. It will not take long for this death energy to erode the originally green land."
"And after the earth was eroded by the death energy, it lost its vitality and became a paradise for dark creatures!"
"This is the reason why all the races in the Holy Continent were defeated by the dark creatures."
“However, since the creation of the Sacred Thorn, it has not only been able to prevent the death energy from eroding the earth, but it can also slowly restore the eroded land over time. Therefore, it can help us block the invasion of dark creatures. "
"And sacred thorns are very rare and expensive even in the Holy Continent. They are precious plants that are competed by various forces in the Holy Alliance. I didn't expect that you, sir, can get sacred thorns here."
"Sir, you are really a nobleman favored by the God of Glory. There should be no space cracks in this Glory Continent, but you can still get it. Then when you cultivate this sacred thorn in the future, you don't have to be afraid of the meteor shower. A dark creature!" Old White congratulated Nalant.
"I'm afraid not necessarily!" After hearing this explanation, Nalant's mood became solemn.
According to Old White, this sacred thorn will only change after encountering a large amount of death energy. Doesn't this mean that the death energy on the grassland is really heavy?
This is bad news.
However, no matter what, the invasion of dark creatures five days later is what he has to face immediately.
"Old White, do you mean that these sacred thorns cannot be used yet?"
"Yes, sir, adult sacred thorns can grow to more than one and a half meters. I'm afraid these sacred thorns of yours cannot be used for the time being! However, I think by next year, more than ten of them will reach adulthood!"
"OK!"
Nalant nodded silently, and then asked people to pull the sacred thorn into the castle. At the same time, he also asked Bessie to readjust her training objects these days.
Old White still doesn't know about his granddaughter's talent, mainly because Nalant gave Bessie a hush-hush order, so Bessie didn't dare to take the initiative to tell his grandfather.
As for Lao Huai, he is even more of a human being. He only needs to know the identity of his granddaughter. Why do he have to investigate so much? Anyway, as long as he lives peacefully, he will know it sooner or later.
…
After this little disturbance in the grassland, time passed day by day, and finally it was the day of the shooting star night five days later.
In the early morning of this morning, the entire Storm Territory was on the move. Tens of thousands of serfs and their families headed toward the temporary camp in the southwest under the leadership of the two village chiefs, Kenby Cowdung and Pete Boots. .
"Sir, all the serfs have begun to move to the grassland! And the elves have all been sent to Rainbow Island for resettlement!" Soon, Mario hurried to the castle to report to Nalant.
"Very well, Mario, I will leave the temporary camp to you for the time being. No one is allowed to return to the territory without my order!"
"Yes, sir!"
"Well, then you all can go together too!" Then, Nalant looked at Thomas and all the male and female servants in the castle.
"My lord...you must be young..." Thomas had something else to say.
"Steward Thomas, this is your Lord's order!" Nalant frowned and spoke sternly before he could finish speaking.
This was the first time Lord Nalant used such a harsh tone to Butler Thomas.
"Yes, sir!" Thomas immediately lowered his head and did not dare to speak again.
"Then go quickly!!"
Immediately, Thomas, Mario and a group of male and female servants slowly left the castle in a carriage. Only Chef Rose and Lilia's personal maid remained in the castle.
Although Nalant had made sufficient preparations to deal with today, in fact, even he himself was not sure.
"Sir, the hanging basket you told me has been checked again, and there is no problem!" Not long after Mario and others left, Quick came to the hall to report to Nalant.
"Very well, Quick, now take the guards and have a good rest. There may be a big battle tonight!"
"Yes, sir!" Quik's expression immediately became solemn. The Lord had already told them about the revelation of the God of Glory in the dream, and they had also heard about the Lord Earl's order.
Therefore, the guards felt that there might really be a big battle at night.
The hanging basket behind the castle, which Nalant had the craftsmen build just a few days ago, is the last escape route on the castle. Once the castle cannot resist the invasion of dark creatures, it will lead its men to escape from the back of the castle. .
"I hope everything goes well!" Looking at the white snow outside the window, Nalant began to wait closely.
And just when he thought everything was in order and just waiting for the war to come, an unexpected caravan came to the Storm Territory.
"Sir, Xiao Huihui just reported that there is a caravan coming towards the castle a few miles away!"
"Caravan? I didn't say hello to the caravan some time ago, why are there still caravans coming now?" Nalant was a little surprised, "Let's go and have a look, sir!"
In this winter, with heavy snow and road closures, the number of caravan visits has been reduced.
Moreover, some time ago, Nalant asked Mario to say hello in advance and not to come to the Storm Territory within this week, because the Storm Territory needs to conduct a drill.
Therefore, the arrival of this caravan is quite unexpected.
When Nalant led the Storm Riders out of the castle, he soon saw clearly where the caravan belonged, and there was also an unexpected person in the caravan.
