Dragon Pool was standing in the special army camp in confusion, while the leopard was leaning against his tree root, seeming to not know what to do as well.
Human warriors had been coming and going in the surrounding area, all of them were extremely busy.
Some of them were asking for credits in the military area, some of them came back with bloody heads to record their credits, some of them exchanged their credits for medicines that could help them awaken their Magus Acupoints and took them right on the spot, some of them rushed back with their bloodied comrades in their arms, screaming for help.
Everything was a mess, and an indescribably strong life-force had been spreading in the campsite.
"Dragon Pool." The old tree carefully pondered the name Man Man gave to herself and said, "I am a tree, why does my name have water in it? What does water and wood mean? I am not a piece of wood that grows out of water! "
"Man Man, Man Man?" Dragon Pool came to a new place for the first time, which was strange to him. Strange place, strange people, strange things. What those warriors of the special army had been doing was strange to Dragon Pool as well.
When he was in the jungle, Dragon Pool had never killed any living creature on his own initiative. The leopard had been hunting quite often, but he wouldn't kill for no reason after he was full. However, those people around him, these warriors of the special army, had been busy slaughtering warriors of another kind.
Not to eat, but to kill for the sake of killing.
Dragon Pool was confused, panicked, and didn't know what to do. He wanted to find an acquaintance to chat with, but Ji Hao and the other two had been called away by Si Wen Ming, and Man Man had gone somewhere to play with her hammer. This little girl, it was obviously impossible for her to stay in one place for a long period of time, and sit steadily on the ground!
Especially since Dragon Pool's fruits weren't delicious, Man Man was even less attractive to him.
Warriors of the special army camp had been looking at Dragon Pool with surprise and curiosity all the time. They didn't know why an old tree man suddenly showed up in the campsite, but no one was too surprised.
Some warriors who came from large clans had some manners, and would even nod to the old tree man to show their respect. Some warriors who came from small families were straightforward and straightforward. They simply threw a glance at the old tree man, then carried all kinds of weapons and walked away.
"Where did Man Man go? This place is so noisy!" The old tree man scratched the crown of the tree and said, "They're even noisier than those squirrels that used to nest on my head."
The leopard snorted. The wine was delicious, the grilled meat was delicious, but the people walking around really gave him a headache. He liked to run freely in the woods. When he was tired, he would run back to Dragon Pool and rest. When he was hungry, he would hunt a wild beast to eat some dried fruits. When he was thirsty, he would go to drink some spring water.
Right now, it was hard to say whether it was good or bad. Of course, it was always good to have Ji Hao and the others around, but he still felt a little different from before, and he couldn't get used to it in a short period of time.
Just as Dragon Pool and the leopard were at a loss of what to do, a special energy wave spread out. Dragon Pool's branches twitched slightly, then he curiously looked towards a woods outside the special army camp.
Dragon Pool slowly uprooted the tree root, then walked towards the woods with big steps. He felt a strong calling, a call from his own race. Not another purple grain dragon sandalwood, but a powerful treeman, who was right outside the camp.
A few apprentices sent by the Magi Palace to listen to Dragon Pool's call hurriedly followed up. They silently followed behind Dragon Pool, not knowing what he was going to do.
Dragon Pool glanced at them, but didn't take them seriously. The treeman family had their own special temperament. Basically, they wouldn't talk to anyone except their friends. In Dragon Pool's eyes, these few apprentices of the Magi Palace were no different from other people, therefore, he didn't need to pay any attention to them.
Wearing the tablet of a Magi Palace's Magi Master, Dragon Pool easily walked out of the special army camp. A quarter of an hour later, he came to a woods around ten miles away from the special army camp.
"Who is it?" Standing in front of a tree in the woods, Dragon Pool asked with a muffled voice.
The ancient tree, which was over a hundred feet tall, shook slightly. Then, its bark split open, revealing a pair of deep eyes and a pitch-black, wide-open mouth. The tree, which was sparsely covered with leaves, suddenly released a strong life-force. Countless tender branches and leaves grew out of the tree, and the thriving life-force quickly affected the surrounding flowers and plants. The ground was soon covered by a layer of green leaves and grasses.
A troop of human scouts quickly flew over from not too far away. Their sharp eyes swept across the tablet worn by Dragon Pool and the apprentices of the Magi Palace behind him, then quickly flew away without stopping. This place was only around ten miles away from the special army camp, which was the core area where most of the fighting forces of the humankind were gathered. Therefore, they didn't need to be too vigilant.
Dragon Pool looked at the tree in front of him and said with a muffled voice, "Don't waste your energy. Turning such a tree into a clone of yourself temporarily is quite harmful. Phew, phew, your real body is so far away again. "
The tree in front of Dragon Pool, which had suddenly changed, was only an ordinary cypress tree. The reason why Dragon Pool had turned into a treeman was because an extremely powerful treeman had sent a stream of his own power to Dragon Pool through the complicated root network of plants in the woods from tens of thousands of miles away, temporarily turning Dragon Pool into his own body.
This kind of behavior was quite harmful to the treeman kind. A temporary clone would consume at least a hundred years' worth of life-force. If it wasn't necessary, no treeman would be stupid enough to do such a thing. However, a treeman who could have a temporary clone, without a doubt, was the kind that had lived for a very long time, was amazingly intelligent and extremely powerful.
"I am Song Gu, my real body is an iron-bone dragon-skin pine." That tree spoke with a buzzing voice, "I am the king of all treemen in the Chi Ban Mountain area, and the surrounding ten-thousand mountains. What's your name? "
A snake couldn't live without its head, and a bird couldn't fly without its wings. No matter if it was a bird or a beast, it would naturally choose a king. However, treemen were different. Treemen had always been the freest, wildest, and loneliest spirit creatures in the jungle. Song Gu said that he was the king of the tree, chosen by countless treemen, which greatly surprised Dragon Pool.
"King of trees?" Dragon Pool shook his branches and said, "I don't understand … I am Dragon Pool. Dragon as in 'dragon', Pool as in 'pool'. "
'Dragon as in' dragon ', Pool as in' pool ', this was what Man Man had said when she named Dragon Pool, and Dragon Pool had said it exactly.
"I am Song Gu, the king elected by fourteen thousand, nine hundred and ninety-eight treemen in the Chi Ban Mountain and surrounding mountains." said Song Gu in a deep voice, "Purple grain dragon sandalwood, I hope you can join us. You are a treeman as well, you should stay with your own kind! "
Dragon Pool remained silent for a while, then responded with a muffled voice, "What were you doing when I was captured?"
Song Gu shut his mouth, staring at Dragon Pool with his pair of deep and profound eyes.
