Chapter 401 Wood Spirit

Chapter 401 Wood Spirit

In a certain location in the Spirit World, one that was close to the coordinates of Saratoga Castle in the material world, there existed a vast mushroom forest.

The air here was thick with the scent of damp earth and blooming wildflowers. The canopy overhead was a kaleidoscope of myriad colors.

There was no sunlight in this place; the entire forest was illuminated by the luminescent glow radiating from the mushroom caps.

This enchanted forest had other types of strange trees growing as well, but it was mostly dominated by mushrooms.

Some were as tall as trees with stems as thick as ancient oaks, while others were tiny, clustering together in groups on the forest floor.

The ground was covered in a thick layer of moss that appeared to be clouds. Among the moss, smaller mushrooms sprouted in vibrant colors—mostly blue and purple.

Delicate ferns and vines slithered between them, further adding to the enchanted forest's beauty.

This forest was not devoid of living creatures, however. Amidst the gentle rustling of leaves and the soft sound of streams, the murmurs of tiny creatures could be heard.

"Fefefe, those stupid humans are coming here too often these days."

"Yes, the Matriarch did mention about them, did she not?"

"Those humans are so silly! It's so easy to fool them, kekeke!" Reêad latest novels at novelhall.com

"I wonder who the next one to come here will be, heehee~"

"They have so many shiny objects with them. I want some!"

These spirits resembled tiny elves, their sizes no bigger than the palm of an average human. They had silvery, almost transparent, moth-like wings and wore brightly colored clothes.

Wood Spirits!

These gentle creatures of the Spirit World greatly enjoyed playing pranks on people. They were a race that specialized in growing and caring for plant life.

Moreover, they were born with innate healing magic. Their healing abilities were so exceptional that they were sought out by many Magi.

They could become trusted allies on the battlefield. However, that was only if a Magus managed to establish a summoning contract with them.

But the next moment, the smiles on their faces froze when they realized that the space before them was trembling at great intensity.

Something like this shouldn't have happened. The vibrations should have been very minimal, allowing for the creation of a portal big enough for them to enter.

However, the vibrations in the space were anything but minimal.

Soon, the space in front of them was viciously torn open and a portal countless times bigger than what the wood spirits had imagined materialized.

"W-What is this?!"

"Such a big portal?!"

Then, under the stupefied expressions of the wood spirits, a gargantuan humanoid, several times bigger than a regular-

sized human, emerged from the portal.

Thankfully, the wood spirits were agile little creatures. Before this enormous humanoid landed upon them, they had already flapped their wings and shot to the depths of the mushroom forest, all the while screaming in panic.

"Hurry, inform the Matriarch!"

"A giant has appeared!"

"The village is in danger! Run!"

As the large portal behind him closed, Adam got to his feet, spitting a mouthful of dirt and grass. He looked around curiously, wondering where he had just landed.

Seeing the mushroom trees around him, his eyes lit up. "A mushroom forest?"

The last time he had been to such a forest was inside the Soaring River Secret Plane. However, the mushroom forest he was currently in had a far stronger mystical vibe.

But soon, he thought something was amiss and couldn't help but mutter in confusion, "Why is everything so... small?"

Then, he lowered his head and glanced at himself. It was then that he realized that it wasn't the surroundings that were small in size.

Instead, it was he who had grown to titanic proportions!
