Agabimelo was walking through a jungle.
"Hey, this rainy season is so annoying." Aga spat as he glimpsed the gray sky through the gaps in the leaves.
Atlantis was a vast place, but the situation was strange.
It was supposed to be like other continents, most of it was above water.
But Atlantis was different. It was as if something had given this continent a hard blow, causing most of the continent to be at the same level as the sea level.
In other words, although this is a complete continent and it also has a continental shelf, it is extremely strange that it does not completely protrude from the ground, as if... there is some huge pressure pressing on this continent.
This also causes a large part of the land to be submerged during high tide, and when the tide recedes, the land that should have been continent will reappear.
Also because Atlantis itself is located near the middle of the Atlantic Ocean, close to the equator, and a large part of it is within the tropics, there is no concept of spring, summer, autumn and winter on this continent.
There is only a difference between the dry season and the rainy season.
In the rainy season, it pours almost every day, while in the dry season, there is no water for several months. At least this is the case for the area where Aga lives. I have also heard that in other places, it rains non-stop all year round or for several years. There is no place where there is not even a drop of rain.
"It's raining hard again, alas..." Hiding under a rock wall, Aga looked at the raindrops falling on the ground and sighed.
"If it keeps raining so hard, how should I go home?" Ajia frowned, "then I will have to worry about me again..."
He leaned back a little decadently.
His current location is in the woods outside the town of Ozark.
The two siblings have been dependent on each other for many years. Normally, the income from Elma's tavern is enough for the two of them.
But with such extravagant hopes, as Aga grew bigger and bigger, and when she approached the age of adulthood, Alma was already exhausted mentally and physically.
Agatha is very good at eating. She can eat more than Alma alone.
Alma can understand, after all, it is a critical moment for Aga to grow up.
But...how to support my younger brother...
Aga chose to stand up on his own.
Relying on his strong body and height that was not inferior to that of an adult, Aga bought a dagger at the blacksmith shop and entered the jungle.
That evening, Aga walked out of the jungle carrying two magic pigs.
This is Atlantis. As the area with the richest spiritual vein nodes, very few non-Warcraft appear here.
Alma, who knew what Aga was sneaking out for, gave Aga a good beating.
Aga can't beat Alma, which is a very sad fact.
Alma is very strong. I really don’t know how such a slender body can use such huge power...
Then Alma cooked the two magic pigs and stuffed them into Aga's belly.
Agabie didn't have much memory about his first hunt. He only remembered that the scars left by Alma's beating on him seemed to be more than those of the magic pig.
This is a unique way for two siblings to get along.
Aga smiled, held on to the stone behind him, and tried to stand up: "If you keep going like this, my sister's iron fist-"
Click——
"well?"
The stone was pushed by Aga, and a hole appeared behind Aga.
He looked at the empty space behind him and glanced at his hands, feeling dumbfounded.
I checked my hands carefully, is there anything wrong?
Ajia cautiously took a look inside the cave. With the sunlight outside, he could still see clearly the scene inside.
"Is this... a cave?" Aga walked into the cave with some anxiety.
The cave is winding and winding, and it seems that it was not built here by other people or gods.
"Wow!" Aga startled a group of bats living in the cave. The bats' red eyes were very conspicuous in the dim environment, which startled Aga.
Hula la——
Bats flew over Aga's head in groups. Aga looked at the bats flying outside in confusion, shook his head, and continued walking inside.
A sense of novelty appeared in Aga's mind. Cave things are rare. I am really lucky to encounter them today. I might as well play for a while and then go back!
"Hey - it smells so bad!" Lemoni leaned against the rock wall, carefully walked through the area covered with stinking bat guano, and continued walking forward.
Aga's night vision ability is not bad, or in other words, the night vision ability of people who are accustomed to hunting will not be bad.
He admired the various weird terrains, beautiful stalactites and occasional crystals along the way.
"It's so beautiful. If I have time, I really want you to come and see it." Aga sighed involuntarily.
After squeezing through a narrow obstacle, Aga suddenly felt wider.
"Here is..." Aga held on to the rock wall and looked at everything in front of him in amazement.
The sun shone slightly from the cracks in the rocks above, and the wide underground space was transformed by this light.
That is -
A huge tree growing underground.
"Blessed by Apollo, this is..." Aga looked at the giant tree standing in the narrow light and jumped down from above.
In fact, the fact that the giant trees can grow in this dark underground space is not just because of the trace of light leaking from the cracks in the rocks high above the head, but also because of what is wrapped under the giant trees.
Spiritual veins.
This is the key point for the growth of giant trees.
"It's...incredible." Agabimelo walked to the side of the giant tree and gently touched the tree.
Trees of this size are actually not uncommon on the ground.
But this is underground.
What's more, can trees with roots wrapped around spiritual vein nodes be ordinary trees?
Agabimera was a lucky man.
When they were young, their parents died in a tsunami, but Aga and Elma survived because of good luck.
This luck is also evident in daily life.
When I go out hunting, I often encounter monsters that are alone or in poor health.
Likewise, this time is also included...
Feeling Aga Bimelo's touch, two small branches stretched out from the giant tree and gently wrapped around Aga.
This tree is a monster.
"Huh?" Ajia was stunned.
Take me out for a look, okay? ——This kind of thought was conveyed from the branches.
The meaning is roughly the same, but the expression seems to be simpler.
Feeling the magic power emanating from the tree, Aga felt his hair stand on end.
"I, I promise you!"
Aga said hurriedly.
Then, he felt that the giant tree in front of him was shrinking and growing in reverse.
After shrinking to a certain extent, it wrapped around Aga's wrist.
Just like an ordinary bracelet.
Although trees are monsters, they are not as ferocious and have a strong appetite as other monsters.
It's just a tree.
A tree that... wants to see more sunlight.
For this reason, even if they give up the spiritual veins they depend on for survival, they will not hesitate.
