"Those are little elves. They are the sons and daughters of the Ancestral God Tree. Do not hurt them as it will enrage the Ancestral God Tree." Fensal reminded softly. "These children will be very grateful if you treat them well. They will even help you back. For example, if you need to search for something or someone, as long as it is within this area, they would be able to be of assistance."
Very quickly, they finally arrived at the top segment of the Ancestral God Tree. There was a big hole in the tree trunk.
A strong white-haired man was standing in front of the tree hole. He was topless with only a black cape over his back. He wore heavy black vine armor on his lower body with a giant silver dual-ax on his back. His hair and beard were tangled together and it was impossible to tell the difference.
"Welcome welcome! My dear friends from Kovitan!" The white-haired man walked towards Garen. He instantly opened his arms and walked towards Garen to give him an intense hug.
A heavy sweaty odor instantly came.
Garen naturally had a strong sense of smell. With that hug, he almost fainted.
Bang bang bang!!!
The man gave Garen loud pats with his strong arms.
"Nine-Headed Hydra Garen! Not bad not bad!" The strong man let go of Garen and let out a big smile. "My daughter likes you very much!"
This King of Daniela was a legendary peak fifth form elite, but he totally did not have the charisma that an elite should have. He was like a barbarian chieftain which did not care about mannerisms at all.
However, it made sense after thinking about it. Being the strongest King of Daniela, he obtained everything through his fists and kicks, seizing from the Cthulhuism Society. He didn't put any form of mannerism in his eyes. He lived however he wanted. Who would dare to instruct him?
"Oh, it's my honor…" Garen was already told that the king's daughter likes him very much after their first meeting. His intentions were exceedingly clear.
"Come to Daniela, I'll marry my three daughters to you! Your kids will definitely be able to inherit my great Daniela and destroy those disgusting Cthulhu worms!" The king of Daniela led them into the tree hole with a big smile on his face.
Unexpectedly, the decorations in the hole were considered luxurious. White-silver ornaments and jade-green vines could be seen everywhere. Their patterns looked abstract but in fact, there was a certain mysterious sequence to it.
The whole tree hole gave people the feeling of a mysterious shrine.
The king of Daniela was a straightforward man. He did not beat around the bush with his words.
"I know you are worried about your fiancee. It's alright. I won't make things difficult for you. Go back and settle your fiancee then come back and marry my daughter!" Phiroth, King of Daniela sat on his throne and spoke bluntly.
"This…..I've only met your daughter for the first time. Isn't this progression is too fast…" Garen did not want to bluntly reject.
"No worries. The daughters of Daniela do not say much. Get in the car first before developing feelings!!" Phiroth waved his hand and was ready to set things in stone.
Garen was completely speechless. At that instant, Wukang was whispering in his ear.
"Do not agree. The words that he just said to you, he has said the same to more than ten elites. He is more fertile than Grand Duke Benoch. He has forty-three daughters now and seventy-six sons. Every time he meets genius totem users, he will give away his daughters and sons. As for inheriting Daniela, he tells this to everyone…" Wukang decisively revealed the true nature of the old man.
Forty-three daughters...
Garen twitched his eyebrows. Although he didn't know how Wukang obtained the information in such a short span of time, regardless of whether it was true, he didn't plan to agree on this marriage.
"Thousand apologies, your honor. I already have a fiancee. Please forgive me for not accepting such an honor." Garen bluntly rejected.
"Oh?" Phiroth straightened his eyes. The atmosphere in the tree hole instantly tremored. It wasn't tremors in the heart, but the whole tree hole was actually trembling slightly.
The air seemed to solidify.
"Saying this, are you looking down on the daughter of Phiroth?" A wave of ferocity flashed in Phiroth's eyes. A tremendous pressure instantly pressed on Garen.
"Your majesty, we came from afar to aid the situation in Daniela. Everyone has their own free will. Are you trying to interfere with my choices?" Garen blinked his eyes. There was a tremor in his body. He instantly broke free from the shapeless pressure of the totem light to avoid direct conflict with the other party.
The pressure had faint resemblance with the aura of the martial arts world. It was as per Garen's prediction. A true fifth form elite would already have God-like martial arts.
Facing an elite like this, totem light was a protective field. It combines totem power and the totem's abilities to form the strongest foundational power. It was like the blood-flow in the martial art world. This was the foundational power of all martial arts. It was a foundational element like a magician's magic in fairy tales and the inner strength of wushu artists. Only because of the different totem abilities, it caused this foundational power to carry different attributes, strengths, and characteristics.
Reversing this power obtained by fusion and evolution, then pushing it into the body to transform it and eventually reaching a whole new evolved level. This was the principle of fifth form.
Facing a fifth form master once again, Garen gleaned some key points just from the short battle of auras. He was instantly delighted.
As he reached the end of this path, he never thought he would be walking his old path of martial arts. The only difference was low-level martial arts used blood flow as the foundation, while the martial arts here used a higher power which recycles in the body as the base for martial arts.
After he understood this, he regained his focus instantly and faced the King of Daniela, Phiroth. The other party was obviously showing off his strength for Garen to understand the difference between their abilities. There is always pride in geniuses.
As their auras came into direct conflict, the difference was Phiroth's aura completely covered the whole tree hole. The faces of the guards and servants around were pale. They were obviously in serious shock.
Even Wukang, Fensal and the rest did not look good, especially Fensal. She knew her father's temper. Although he had many kids, Phiroth especially loved twelve of them, including herself and her brother. His proposal being rejected in front of such a big crowd did not look good on all of Daniela.
"Hahaha!" Suddenly, Phiroth burst into laughter. His loud laughter shook the whole tree hole.
"Good! Good personality! I admire your character! I am at peace entrusting my daughter to you!" Phiroth directly ignored Garen's rejection.
"Your Majesty. It's not that your daughter isn't good enough. It's just that I'm already…"
"There's no need for more words!" Phiroth raised his hands. "I know what you mean, but Phiroth's daughter is definitely much better than your fiancee! However, the younger generation should handle their own matters. Regarding you and number six, both of you develop by yourselves. I'll leave it to you."
He raised the wine glass and gulped down some wine.
"Alright, I'm tired. All of you are excused. Coming from afar, have good rest today. Don't miss the gathering period of the Seed of the Ancestral God."
"Thanks for your understanding, Your Majesty." Garen heaved a sigh of relief. All these while there was freedom of love. He has never heard about forced marriage in front of a crowd. The King of Daniela was volatile. His thoughts were abnormal. It wasn't easy to deal with him.
The thing that made Garen more speechless was that a person like that was one of the strongest in the whole world. Even in the whole East Continent, Phiroth would be one of the top elites.
The habit of giving daughters away after meeting people wasn't a good one.
Feeling fortunate, Garen and Wukang finally left the tree hole. Two tree holes located at the bottom half of the tree were arranged for their stay.
Before long, there were totem users that came to visit.
As Kovitan's top genius who emerged in a few short years, Garen naturally had some fame. Leaders of middle and large-sized forces visited him one by one to be acquainted. They even brought along some strange treasures as gifts.
Garen took a few of the gifts including a potion that he concocted and went to visit the Lord and Deputy Lord of the Geometry Service.
The Geometry Service was different from other departments. The main power structure was from the Royal Star Court. The strongest Lord and Deputy Lord were equivalent to the directors and ministers of other departments.
However, he did not manage to meet both of them. Both of them were out. Garen had to leave the gifts and return.
Furthermore, basic manners were sufficient.
After a series of exchanges, Wukang who was incredibly good in espionage returned after going out alone. There were clearly several kiss marks on his neck. He walked into Garen's tree hole with a blissful expression.
"Daniela's girls are too wild!" His first sentence revealed his nature.
He showed off his kiss marks so Garen could see them better.
Wukang laughed and sat down. Then he drank the red fruit juice on the table.
"Say...What other good news have you obtained again."
"There is indeed a good news." Wukang placed the cup down. "The Cthulhu King has announced that he wants to make an exchange with the glittering water. Is this considered good news?"
"Of course." Garen's eyes brightened up. He was waiting for this.
"There is other news. I heard that two intelligence-type nest kings have appeared in the East Continent. They are incredibly strong." Wukang continued. "They control all the nests, gathering all monsters and dangerous mutants to form a complete organization. They are in three major countries and a whole group of small countries in the South. They restricted the monsters from attacking humans. Naturally, the environment became safer. At least all monsters with strong abilities are gone."
Garen naturally knew the origin of the two new nest kings. If the piece of information was accurate, he wasn't surprised.
"Anything else?"
"The situation. Many remnants of organizations naturally started to develop again while in a safe environment." Wukang shrugged. "However, I heard that Daniela's King wanted to recruit all these organizations to become one with him at the helm. His ambition is not small. He wants to disassemble the Elder Council and do things himself." Wukang stroked his chin as he spoke.
"After some careful thought, Phiroth indeed has a huge ambition. But the Cthulhuism Society aren't herbivores. There will definitely be conflicts during this upcoming glittering water incident." Garen whispered.
"Herbivores? What do you mean?" Wukang didn't understand. "Oh, are you saying they are as ferocious as carnivores? Yes indeed," he responded. "What should we do now?"
"The Seed of the Ancestral God and Cthulhu's Origin. We need to try our best to obtain these two things." Garen said with a solemn expression. "However, many other forces will have the same objective as us."
"Definitely. Elites from Ender, and also Sudan. All of them are led by fourth form elites. In fact, most of the strongest people in the East Continent other than the Elder Council, have gathered here. Hehe, the human population is already severely depleting. If there is another accident here, killing a whole bunch of people, the human race would be facing extinction.
Garen looked at Wukang. Although he didn't mean it, Garen knew that after Hellgate emerges, the actual situation would be like what Wukang has described. Many elites who fought against the Obscuro Society would perish. The forces of the entire East Continent would be depleted. In the future, even Spiritualization level would be considered elites., as fourth form totem users would be almost extinct.
After Beckstone and the rest defeat Hellgate with tremendous effort, the whole totem world in the East Continent would be broken. The totem civilization would regress backward by a few decades.
