Chapter 2263 Help


    Elder Klonor couldn''t help but feel somewhat agitated.


    It was clear that humans were up to mischief behind the scenes, using the strength of the Lickers to dy their progress, yet they didn''t have a good way to deal with it.


    The Temple of Incantation was left by the ancestors of the tree spirit tribe, and no one dared to suggest the sphemous idea of forcibly destroying it.


    Under the interference of the Lickers, it took nearly 15 minutes topletely clear the thickyer of soil blocking the passage.


    Immediately, everyone entered the basement warehouse area to investigate.


    "Hmm?"


    Seeing the scene inside the basement, Klonor couldn''t help but feel extremely surprised, letting out a soft gasp.


    Odd, there was nothing here?


    The storage hall seemed to have experienced a fierce earthquake, with debris and rubble scattered everywhere, except for the piled-up mine carts, there was almost nothing else.


    Something''s wrong!


    Everyone realized something was off, but where was the problem?


    They all looked at Tippy.


    Tippy was also bewildered.


    The Lickers clearly emerged from here.


    Howe they were suddenly gone?


    It didn''t make sense.


    And even the sapling of the sacred tree was gone?


    A tribesman hurriedly approached and reported, "Elder, we''ve checked. The mine carts aren''t loaded with ore, just some ordinary sand. There''s no trace of the sacred tree sapling."


    Sand?


    Tippy suddenly realized something and her expression changed slightly. She looked up and said, "Underground!"


    Suddenly, everyone present also reacted.


    Right!


    Underground!


    The elder of the Root tribe immediately condensed an imprint in front of him.


    "Root Pierce!"


    The ground surged before them.


    Several tree roots surged from the muddy ground!


    "Boom!!!"


    Immediately after, a huge copse appeared in front of them.


    People stepped forward a few steps and looked at the dark passage leading downwards on the ground.


    Soon, their gaze shifted to Klonor, the elder of the Wood tribe.


    A tunnel?


    When did this happen?!


    Was it dug out when the Wood tribe upied the Temple of Incantation?


    Klonor''s expression changed several times, shaking his head. "We, the Wood tribe, have never heard of such a tunnel."


    Not the Wood tribe?


    The Leaf tribe?


    Did they dig it out in such a short time?


    "They haven''t left long, let''s pursue!"


    Regardless of whether the Leaf tribe was prepared or not, they had to chase!


    After exerting so much effort, they only got a Temple of Incantation?


    No way!


    Absolutely not allowed!


    Meanwhile, Fang Heng was lurking within the secondary space projection.


    After dying the pursuers for 20 minutes, he had learned through the remote game hints from the zombie team that the passage below had been dug through.


    In theory, Ovi should be safe by now.


    Watching the tree spirit tribe people chase along the passage, Fang Heng thought for a moment, then left and hurried towards the exit of the tunnel dug by the zombies.


    Half an hourter.


    When Fang Heng arrived at the exit of the underground passage on the other side, he found only Vannes.


    "Fang Heng."


    Vannes had been waiting here for a while. Seeing Fang Heng approaching, he stepped forward and examined him with his gaze, asking, "Where''s the item?"


    Fang Heng replied with a question, "And where''s Ovi?"


    "Elder Ian has already escorted Ovi and the sapling of the sacred tree back to our tribe. They don''t need to trouble you anymore. And what about the spiritual curse prayer?"


    Vannes had been waiting at the exit of the passage since his escape.


    Upon learning that Ovi had entrusted such a precious item as the spiritual curse prayer to Fang Heng, he immediately cursed Ovi as a fool.


    Ridiculous!


    How could humans trust so easily?!


    So, Vannes had Ian escort Ovi back first, while he personally stayed behind to wait for Fang Heng, intending to demand the spiritual curse prayer from him.


    Fang Heng couldn''t be bothered to argue with Vannes. With a flick of his wrist, he threw the runestone of the spiritual curse prayer forward.


    Anyway, he had forcibly memorized all the contents of the spiritual curse prayer with the help of his zombie clone.


    He would take some time to digest it thoroughly after returning,pleting the full memory.


    A game hint promptly popped up.


    [Hint: Current yer mission "Ovi''s Entrustment" mission requirements arepleted.]


    "Hmph."


    Vannes took the runestone and inspected it in his hand, giving a heavy snort.


    He knew when to seize the opportunity!


    Luckily, he kept a close eye, otherwise the spiritual curse prayer might have fallen into the hands of outsiders.


    Vannes nced at Fang Heng and said coldly, "Let''s go, return to the tribe with me."


    ...


    After spending half a day, Fang Heng and Vannes safely returned to the Leaf tribe''s habitat through a teleportation passage established by the Leaf tribe elsewhere.


    Upon entering the habitat, Vannes arranged for Fang Heng to rest in a side hall under the supervision of several Leaf tribe members.


    Meanwhile, Elder Senzo urgently summoned Vannes, Ovi, and a few others.


    In this battle, besides the significant casualties among the Leaf tribe members, two Leaf tribe elders were severely injured, and Elder Farouk sacrificed himself to protect the sapling of the sacred tree, resulting in immense casualties for the entire Leaf tribe.


    Fortunately, the sapling of the sacred tree was saved.


    Ovi respectfully handed over the box containing the sapling of the sacred tree to Elder Senzo.


    "Ovi, you did a great job in safely bringing back the sapling," Elder Senzo praised.


    "You are too kind, Elder. It was my duty," Ovi replied humbly.


    "Great Elder!" n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om


    Unable to contain himself, Vannes stepped forward, interrupting their conversation. "This matter cannot be left like this! Please allow me to lead a group to the Wood tribe and demand an exnation!"


    Elder Senzo''s expression darkened, his mood extremely grim.


    This time, the three major tribes conspired against them, nearly costing them the sacred tree sapling.


    "Vannes, now is not the time. Step back for now."


    Rudyard was still under the control of the three major tribes, and the priority was to find a way to rescue him.


    Attacking the Wood tribe rashly would only unite the other three major tribes further, cing the Leaf tribe in an even more disadvantageous position.


    Thinking this, Elder Senzo turned to Ovi and said, "Ovi."


    "Yes, Elder."


    "You have been studying magic arrays for a long time. Among the younger generation of the Leaf tribe, you are the most knowledgeable about magic arrays and the cultivation of the sacred tree sapling. With Elder Farouk''s sacrifice, the tribe needs you to step forward and shoulder the responsibility of nurturing the sapling of the sacred tree."


    "Yes, Great Elder. I will do my best. But my strength is far inferior to Elder Farouk''s. It may take some time for me to familiarize myself," Ovi replied.


    "Understood. Familiarize yourself as soon as possible. Nurturing the sapling of the sacred tree is of utmost importance. If you encounter any problems, you can seek advice from Elder Yuri. I will inform him in advance," Senzo said. "Do you have any other requests?"


    Ovi hesitated for a moment before nodding, "Great Elder, I would like to request Fang Heng''s assistance."


    Assistance?


    From a human!?


    At this, murmurs arose among the assembled tribespeople.


    "Oh?"


    Senzo heard Fang Heng''s name once again, feeling perplexed.


    What kind of power did Fang Heng possess to make even Ovi seek his help?
