Chapter 177: Ascending is fine, but packing is excessive
The game interface turned into a golden wilderness.
Lu Yao didn’t know if it was his illusion. He always felt that the "Golden Wilderness" became clearer, and the golden plants on the ground were no longer blurry.
A card flew out of the Silvanus Tree.
On the card was a black wizard hat with a prominent green leaf attached to it.
***
【Nature’s Hat LV10】: Faith +10/hour, Mana +800.
An unidentified hat with the fixed spell 【Unstable Hat Trick】.
Equipment requirement: 【Intelligence Lv20】
***
【Unstable Hat Trick】(800)
Create a hat for a creature to wear, allowing it to temporarily transform into a different form of life. The result is unpredictable, with a high probability of becoming weaker and a low probability of becoming stronger.
***
Lu Yao’s eyes lit up.
Advanced control spell!
Encountering a very powerful monster or Apostle, simply put the hat on them to forcibly weaken them.
Of course, if the face is not very good, it may also temporarily transform the other party into a terrifying monster.
Lu Yao pondered.
This ability might be used for practical testing when dealing with the first-level Curse Insect in the Abyss.
Lu Yao equipped the hat on Isabella.
Isabella put on the black wizard hat, rode a magic wand, held a magic book, and naturally chanted spells, transforming into a standard witch.
Unfortunately, there was no so-called set effect.
"Master, I feel like something is still missing."
Isabella responded, "Perhaps a similar piece of equipment is missing, so although there is a reaction between us, the final wonderful change has not yet occurred."
It seems that it’s not complete yet.
Lu Yao felt a little regretful, as there was no way to proceed to the next step in the short term.
The simulator displayed relevant prompts.
【The Silvanus Tree has fallen into a deep sleep】
[The forest elemental civilization yearns for the guidance and bestowal of the gods, and needs a god to enter the Golden Wilderness to complete the divine trial. The Silvanus Tree will give precious treasures in gratitude and will officially open the treasure trove of the Forest God】
The Golden Wilderness became calm again.
Lu Yao took a bite of an apple.
It’s just that there was one thing Lu Yao was not very satisfied with.The Songlv God always wanted to spread the pine trees over the mountain, to cross the valley and basin, and enter the outside world.
Is it not good to develop and ascend here in peace?
The White God would trample and destroy the pines that spread too far, to control the scale of the pine area. Occasionally, Lu Yao would also send down a few bolts of lightning, creating localized fires to prevent the squirrels from becoming too rampant and squeezing the living space of other creatures.
Under the artificial intervention regulated by Lu Yao, the Songlv God had no temper and could only continue to spread the trees honestly.
On the third day, suddenly the statue emitted a glowing white light, and a spiral staircase of light rose from the statue into the high sky.
A rotating nebula appeared in the sky, showing the shadow of a palace, reflecting against the white light from the statue.
Lu Yao watched with excitement.
Was this the entrance to the Pantheon?
So this is what the ascension of a novice deity looked like.
Lu Yao immediately prepared for both possibilities.
If there were no problems, he would let it ascend normally; if there were any tricks, he would deal with them promptly.
The ground around the Songlv God also began to show lines of light, wrapping up the central part of the valley. The ground started to tremble violently, looking as if it was about to uproot the core area entirely.
Not only that, but a large amount of red mist emanated from around the statue, enveloping the Fighting Beetles, the strong grass, and the small animals, causing them to fall into varying degrees of poisoning.
This was too much.
It not only wanted to take the entire valley away, but it also directly poisoned and destroyed what it couldn’t take.
Lu Yao frowned.
There was nothing more to say.
Upon receiving the order, the White God executed a "Trample" towards the statue.
At the same time, the yeti lurking in the mountains appeared, riding the young dragon Pasha, and its red gloves grabbed at the statue, retrieving an item.
Faith +1583 appeared in the top right corner of the game interface.
At this moment, Lu Yao also used the lightning that he hadn’t used for a long time, striking directly at the statue of the Songlv God.
The statue instantly exploded, turning into rubble.
In an instant, the light in the valley faded, and the shadow of the Pantheon in the sky also vanished without a trace.
Lu Yao looked at the ruins of the statue on the ground, conducting a review and summary.
Next time, he should warn the other party earlier.
Ascension is fine, but one can only leave with their belongings... But even if he were to be open and honest from the start, in the end, it would most likely be a situation of mutual suspicion, truly unsolvable.
Effective communication and the risk cost with foreign deities are too high, far less reliable and easier to deal with than local deities like the White God.
Lu Yao couldn’t help but think.
The acquaintance between deities is probably like falling in love; to find the right one not only requires sincerity but also fate.
