Chapter 292 Type I Nature Guardian (4000)

Locke frowned. The voice coming from the World Tree was not only mysterious, but also contained a lot of information that he did not know, so that he could not understand the specific meaning of his words.

 But in the past few times, during the induction between myself and the natural plane, I was unable to take the initiative to speak in this illusion.

 Only this time, after trying several times, I realized that I could obviously speak, but it was just like humans had never had this organ before, so they were unable to use it for a while.

 But after repeated attempts, Locke finally uttered the first syllable in the illusion of this natural plane. "you……"

 Suddenly, the natural force of the natural plane reacted to a simple syllable of human language.

· Natural force storms appeared above them.

 But these terrifying natural force storms are as insignificant as small splashes to the great World Tree.

 But for Locke, it was a continuous magical storm.

 Locke's soul constantly breaks through the limits and reaches the limit of the human soul. In the realm above this limit, it reacts with the natural force of the natural plane.

 Locke immediately reacted. This is the plane of the natural force, and it is almost the largest external source of wood elemental magic particles.

 The remaining sources should be the forests and other ecosystems of the plane itself.

 In some theories, they call the torrent of wood element composite particles life energy.

 Hence, even speaking the simplest syllable here may cause a reaction of the natural force and produce some kind of natural magic.

 This also proves from the side that his magic level as a wizard of the first level of the plant system.

  A first-level wizard is no longer a mortal.

 His soul has reached a height that is impossible for mortals to reach.

  A first-level botanical wizard, if he is in the natural force plane, his combat effectiveness will be infinitely improved.

Of course, in the main material plane, he will definitely not be as blessed as he is in the natural force plane.

 Lock thought for a while, he couldn't pronounce any simple syllables in the natural plane, so he couldn't communicate with the world tree manifested by the mysterious will of the natural plane.

 But this opportunity is rare, and I don’t know when I will encounter it next time.

 Hence, Locke quickly thought of a solution in his mind. He must get in touch with the World Tree of Will in the natural plane before withdrawing from this connection. "Using ordinary human language has this effect. If I use serious magic language, the wind of plant magic will immediately blow."

   "The plane of the natural force is still very dangerous for me at the moment."

“If you are not careful, a continuous magic storm may form around you.”

   "Just now, it was the World Tree that blocked me from the chain magic reaction caused by the syllable I made."

    "Wait a minute, I also know another language, it's the Modo language!"

   Luo Ke immediately tried to communicate with the World Tree in the Modo language. The Modo language is a language of negative energy, and nature and life magic are mutually exclusive. Therefore, just by uttering a simple syllable, he might not be able to activate his own magical will and give the torrent of natural force around him the manifestation of plant magic.

  Causes the continuous magical storm that stretches thousands of miles.

 Locke tried to speak in the language of Modo: "Great consciousness of the natural plane, I am Locke Augustine."

"I am here to pay my respects to you."

 h "But I want to ask you, what is defense, what is victory from ancient times to the present, and what was the disaster half a million years ago?"

Locke asked about the secret that he has been searching for.

The consciousness of World Tree does not seem to be too surprised, why does Locke use Modo language, a negative energy language, to communicate with him, "Three Eyes, you have become smarter."

 Yggdrasil consciousness is not like a personal consciousness. Its thinking is large and slow, fair and objective.

   "The responsibility of guarding is the special individuals selected by the natural plane to protect the natural ecology. These selected magical creatures with wisdom and strength are the guardians of nature."

   "Natural guardians protect nature, and there are different types of nature guardians. The role of Type I nature guardians is to protect a certain group of organisms in the natural environment. In the environment, the optimal solution has been reached, and the group has formed a relative balance with the natural environment. There are no longer external threats and natural enemies, so that when social form and technological progress, and its own evolution have stalled for a long time, Type I natural guardians will appear and make the group fear natural enemies again. "

"To promote the natural ecology to evolve again."

“Type I nature guardians are manifestations of the power of natural evolution and have different responsibilities from other types of nature guardians. Therefore, type I nature guardians are disaster beasts. There are negative feedbacks that bring destruction and disaster to the natural world. There must be a certain order of magnitude of negative feedbacks in the natural ecology, otherwise the ecology will collapse and evolution will stop. "Disasters, deaths, plagues, diseases and natural enemies, as well as you beasts, are all promoting the continuous evolution of the ecology."

 A golden-green light appeared in the natural magic eye on Locke's forehead, and a special black-red rune was formed in it.

 This rune is written in natural force text. It is very mysterious. It has a complexity that Locke has not encountered in the life magic text before.

At the same time, Locke seemed to be blessed by some kind of power. After activating this natural force rune, all his mana and basic physical strength increased to a higher level, probably doubling.

 Furthermore, Locke was still secretly feeling the earth's polar magnetism in his innate magic eyes, which seemed to have undergone some kind of change. It seems that because of that single natural force rune, you can get the special blessing of the natural force rune.

 This is equivalent to using the three-eyed tiger-eyed cat to obtain the identity of a nature guardian, and the nature guardian gives him a set of panel bonuses, plus a skill change.

The World Tree once again transmitted an illusion through Locke's palm on its trunk. In a dense jungle, the evolution of a group of reptiles had reached a certain limit. They occupied most of the ecological resources, and rejected evolution and chose to maintain the original state, which has never changed for millions of years.

 One day, a reptile with the ability to fly accidentally fell into the lava of a volcano. Then it emerged from the fire and reappeared in the world, bringing high temperatures and heat to the entire world. Large areas of magical plants began to die, the ecology collapsed, and the reptile population began to die on a large scale.

 It seems that the ecology is being destroyed, but the reptile group, which has been stagnant for millions of years and has not evolved, began to change under the power of this natural disaster.

The picture turned again. This time, what appeared in the picture was a civilization of human-like intelligent life that had reached its limit. They had already overcome birth, old age, illness and death, and had no enemies. At the same time, they refused to explore outwards and stayed where they were, consuming the existing resources and enjoying themselves. The civilization came to a complete standstill.

 But suddenly one day, a terrifying giant hydra emerged from the ground and crazily destroyed all the cities of this civilization, forcing this civilization to leave its original place.

 The last scene is a forest, burning with raging fire, seemingly turning the entire forest floor into a sea of ​​flames. However, when the flames disappeared, it was discovered that it was just low-temperature fire all over the forest floor.

 After the sea of ​​​​fire, the parasites and germs on the plants in the forest were eliminated together. The burning flames ignited the weak and diseased branches, and those branches turned into ashes. Instead, they fed back the truly powerful trees in the forest, making the entire forest healthier and constantly evolving.

 The World Tree conveys His will. "This is the truth. 』

     Naturally, negative feedback is needed. The duty of guarding the disaster beast is to kill. 』

   This is a duty of defense originating from ancient times. In ancient times, among biological groups with special factors, individuals would be selected as guardians of nature and classified into different types. Each type of natural guardian had different responsibilities. 』

   But currently, this mechanism has serious problems. 』

『Three Eyes, don’t let the catastrophe half a million years ago happen again. As long as it doesn’t happen again, we can defend the victory we have had and maintain continuous victory. 』

  The next moment, Locke was disconnected from the will of Yggdrasil.

 Even a first-level wizard's soul is not strong enough to be connected with the world consciousness of the natural force plane for such a long time.

 If it were not for the existence of the special nature guardian system, it would have been impossible for Locke to have such a deep communication with the world consciousness of the natural plane and obtain such advanced knowledge at the first stage.

 This part of knowledge is equivalent to being directly transmitted to him by the will of the world. It is somewhat similar to the unity of heaven and man in the previous life, or is similar to some kind of inspiration from the gods.

 After all, researching and reading books are just a few ways to gain knowledge.

 The world is very big, and there are many other ways to obtain knowledge, but the threshold is quite high and not accessible to ordinary people.

  In the central control room of the research institute located in the swamp of the Forbidden Forest, Locke sat on the ground and fell into deep thought.

  He is still in the state of opening his natural magic eyes, which contain natural force runes. "The development of this situation now is a bit strange."

  Locke looked in the mirror and thought: "I have read the description of the natural force runes in the book. The wizards call them [primitive runes]."

"That is the oldest rune in the world. It has given countless inspirations to the wizarding world. Many wizards are also tracing the origin and proving that the [original rune] does exist."

"But most of them have failed. Now I have actually obtained something that the first-level wizards, and even the second-level wizards, have not studied." Locke had a strange expression.

   "This... feels good."

   "Just try not to use it in front of others, I don't want to attract the attention of the second-level wizards."

   Locke looked at the black and red rune in the natural magic eye on his forehead, which was the ancient primitive rune.

 Legends say that the earliest wizards once studied these primitive runes in depth and absorbed countless magical essences from them.

 But for a long time, this was only regarded as a children's story and was not taken seriously by wizards.

 But his own existence has proved that the original runes do exist.

 Locke thought: "Although I still don't understand what the disaster that happened half a million years ago that wiped out almost all ancient creatures was and how it came about, I finally understand what a guardian of nature is."

"Type I nature guardians are all disaster beasts, responsible for bringing new disasters and dangers."

  "Use these disasters and dangers to encourage races in nature to gain the power to evolve. Therefore, type I nature guardians are, in a sense, natural disasters."

  「防止有种族在当前自然环境之中取得最优解之后,失去了前进动力,而停滞不前,陷入原地消耗资源,而自我消亡。」

  洛克从星界戒指之中,拿出笔记,记下他从世界树那边获得天授知识。 "Of course, in addition to type I nature guardians, there will definitely be more types of nature guardians. And the first level should only be type I nature guardians, the lowest level requirement for performing their duties." "

 h "Or is it possible that the bloodline of the three-eyed tiger-eyed cat can only obtain the template of a first-level natural guardian?"

 h "Then we need to trace the origin and pursue the bloodline of more advanced ancient creatures."

“After I got the Disaster Beast’s panel, all my power was doubled, and I also had a special ability that was being nurtured. Moreover, my basic strength will increase in the future. Because of the Disaster Beast template, all my panels will be doubled, at least in the first stage.”

 "This is a powerful force that must be pursued."

 "The price-performance ratio is very high. Wizards want to explore unknown things like this."

 Locke drew on his notes the patterns of the ancient Orkney giant bear and the three-eyed tiger-eyed cat. After thinking about it, he wrote another gold next to it.

  "Or dig into the bloodline of unknown ancient creatures that I currently have."

"According to World Tree, nature guardians can only be selected from some ancient biological groups, which explains why in today's wizarding world, we have not heard any information about nature guardians at all." Not to mention, in today's world, most ancient creatures have become extinct. "

"If the guardians of nature are the limbs of the natural plane that interfere with the operation of the world, then most of the limbs in the natural plane have been chopped off."

Locke was confused. "Then the great disaster in the past affected a wider area and had a more serious impact than I imagined."

  "It has even changed the logic of how the world operates."

"What happened half a million years ago?"

"Exploring this secret will undoubtedly benefit me greatly. The secret is power. If you unlock the secret, you will gain power."

Locke pressed his palm on the amethyst matrix, and suddenly a line of numbers appeared on the amethyst matrix - 3000, 3500!

 His current mana is three thousand, and his magic pressure is three thousand five!
