After receiving this news, Ma Wen was almost certain that the Force of Nature in the Supreme Forest was indeed decreasing.
This decrease was unsettling.
He suddenly remembered that in order to kill Di Gaogeng, he had entered the Tree of World.
"Did the Migratory Bird Council suspect me because of this?"
Ma Wen's reaction was also very fast, and he immediately came to this conclusion.
This was a completely logical conclusion.
In the eyes of the Migratory Bird Council, Ma Wen was basically a person who had appeared out of nowhere. Other than him, it seemed like no one else could get close to the Tree of World recently.
This was a big problem.
Ma Wen thought about it. The reason why the old tree man was looking for him was very obvious. It was to find out if he was the source of the weakening Force of Nature.
Since this was the case, he decided not to hide and directly headed toward Jadeite City.
Soon, he reached the depths of the sanctuary.
The forest in the distance became even more lush, and the trees were extremely tall. Pure white clouds covered the canopy of the tall trees, and a city rose from the ground, standing on top of the sea of clouds!
This was Jadeite City, a city built on the trees and the sea of clouds!
The Great Druids lived here, guarding the inheritance of the era and Fernand's Tree of World. According to Ma Wen's understanding, there were also two guardian dragons sleeping here!
When he reached the edge of Jadeite City, he directly activated his own territory!
Shadows, and killing!
In an instant, he felt a pair of eyes focusing on him.
It was a gaze from above the sea of clouds.
Ma Wen smiled.
After releasing his power, he was naturally discovered by the owner of this sanctuary.
This was the effect that Ma Wen wanted. After all, it was most important to resolve the misunderstanding with the Migratory Bird Council as soon as possible.
…
The atmosphere in the treehouse, which was surrounded by roots, was a little awkward.
After the initial greetings, the few Great Druids fell into silence, as if they had fallen asleep.
Only the chairman of the Migratory Bird Council, the old tree man, kept staring at Ma Wen, as if he had found something interesting.
Since Ma Wen did not do anything wrong, he was naturally not afraid of being stared at.
However, it was hard for him to explain that he had been to the Paramount Forest in his previous life and knew about the strength of the Force of Nature here. Hence, he had been feigning ignorance.
"Dear Mr. President," Ma Wen cleared his throat and looked at the old treant, "as you said in your letter, I have come as promised."
"With all due respect, I don't mean to question the Migratory Bird Council's decision. However, regarding the Endless Ocean, your decision seems to be unreasonable. We all know how terrifying the Dark Phoenix is. If the four totem pillars didn't seal off the source of her energy, I wouldn't have been able to kill her. "
At this time, Ma Wen naturally knew that the four totem pillars were definitely not the focus of the conversation between the two sides. However, he still had to put on a show.
As expected, the rest of the Druids seemed to be even more embarrassed after he said that.
Ma Wen chuckled in his heart.
These Druids were too honest and didn't know how to lie at all.
From the looks of it, the Endless Ocean was probably fine.
The so-called punishment result was probably just for him to see. The goal was to lure him to Jadeite City.
At this thought, Ma Wen couldn't help but smile.
As long as he could prove that he had nothing to do with the exhaustion of the Force of Nature, the Druids would definitely feel guilty.
At that time, if he wanted to obtain some benefits, wouldn't it be a piece of cake with Marvin's methods?
At this moment, the old treant finally spoke.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ma Wen. We made some mistakes in our judgment. "
"We lied to you previously. The Endless Ocean wasn't sentenced to life imprisonment. On the contrary, as a member of the Paramount Forest, she participated in the extermination of the Dark Phoenix. That is enough to offset her crime of stealing the four totem pillars."
"In fact, we didn't make things difficult for her."
Ma Wen raised his eyebrows.
The old fox's honesty caught him off guard.
He apologized right away. Did he realize that he had suspected the wrong person?
Also, did he think that he would make a long journey here to enjoy the scenery with just a simple apology?
That's not appropriate, is it?
Ma Wen rolled his eyes and pretended to be angry. "Oh? So what you said in the letter was all a lie? "
"I didn't expect the Migratory Bird Council to lie to others, especially to their own allies."
The faces of the Big Druids turned even uglier.
The old Treant sighed slightly and looked at Marvin with a complicated expression. Finally, he slowly said,
He finally said slowly, "This matter is too complicated. I'm sorry that we used the worst method."
"If you understand the nature of the matter, I'm sure you'll forgive us."
Ma Wen cursed in his heart. The old fox was obviously trying to cut ties without any benefits.
However, he still pretended to be all ears.
"I'd like to know what the nature of the matter is."
The Wrath of the Sky coughed and interrupted, "Ma Wen, this matter involves the core secret of the Paramount Forest. I'm afraid we can't …"
However, the old treant waved his hand.
"It's fine. We have to give Mr. Ma Wen an explanation."
"Only by letting him know the whole story can we clear up the misunderstanding between us."
Hearing the old treant's sincere tone, Ma Wen had a bad feeling.
The Druids had always been old-fashioned. They were rarely willing to divulge such important information.
Ma Wen originally wanted to leave with Constantine and the others after getting some benefits. He didn't expect that he would be involved in the core secret of the Paramount Forest.
What was the old treant planning?
Without waiting for Marvin to refuse, the Old Treant actually started talking on his own.
Ma Wen had no choice but to listen.
…
The old treant's description was concise. However, the nature of the matter was more serious than Ma Wen had imagined. It was no wonder that the Druids would use methods that went against their style to lure Ma Wen.
The World Tree's wither.
This was no small matter. It was something big enough to affect the entire Fernand!
Even in the game, Ma Wen didn't have any impression of this!
It was obvious that this was a huge change caused by his transmigration.
After listening, Ma Wen fell into deep thought.
"The World Tree's withering must be man-made. The prophecy showed that a shadow was causing trouble. No wonder they suspected me. After all, I just entered the World Tree a few months ago!
"Could it be that someone was following me that time?"
At this thought, Ma Wen couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.
At this moment, he stared at the shadow in the old treant's hand and found it familiar.
It was as if he had seen it somewhere before. However, when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't remember such a person.
The old treant's voice came slowly.
"Previously, we suspected that the withering of the World Tree had something to do with you. After all, as a ruler of the night, the shadow domain matches with the prophecy.
"But just now, I saw another domain on you. I immediately understood that this matter has nothing to do with you.
"The shadow in the prophecy is evil but pure. It's definitely an expert with only one domain or a divine domain.
"We are sorry for your suspicion."
All of a sudden, Marvin shuddered.
He suddenly remembered why the shadow was so familiar!
