As the energy level limit was activated, an indescribable shackle began to bind each and every one of the fairies.
However, the one who felt it the most was probably the most powerful one among them — the Vine Witch. The other fairies only noticed that the energy they were absorbing was becoming sluggish, which slowed down their leveling process.
This was because the maximum energy level limit was set at the level of a level-3 apprentice. Among the fairies, only the Vine Banshee had reached the bottleneck of a Level-3 Apprentice. The other fairies were still far from the upper limit.
Far away, the vine demoness could clearly see that there was still a large amount of energy mist bestowed by the Mother Tree, but she was unable to absorb it into her body. She turned very anxious. She turned around and whispered to the tree to ask for the reason.
The Vine Witch's behavior attracted the attention of the other fairies. They also felt the energy change. Before, they could digest the energy in an instant and grow stronger. But now, the time needed to digest the energy was increased by hundreds or thousands of times. Even if they slowed down, they wouldn't lose much time.
Therefore, they all stopped and turned back to look at the Mother Tree, hoping to get a response from it.
However, the prayers of the fairies did not immediately receive a response from the Mother Tree.
It wasn't that the Mother Tree didn't want to answer. It was that Angor had temporarily taken over the tree civilization and was thinking about how to respond to them.
After a long time, the fairies finally received a response.
However, the Mother Tree's response was very short. It didn't even form a sentence. It only contained two words: balance and wait.
The fairies came into existence because of the tree civilization. They were born with intelligence. They hadn't reached the level of a "civilized society" yet, but they could understand the meaning of the two words through the Mother Tree's will.
"Wait" meant not to act until the thing they were looking for appeared.
These words calmed the fairies down a little. The Mother Tree clearly meant that they could break through the bottleneck as long as they waited patiently.
At least they wouldn't lose hope.
However, they were a little confused about the word "balance".
Balance meant to keep both sides from tilting.
Did the Mother Tree mean that they needed to maintain a balance with a certain faction or race?
Which faction? Which race? As the group of Fey pondered this, they seemed to have thought of something and looked to the other side.
Was it them? Humans? Was the Mother Tree keeping the fairies and humans in balance?
While the pixies were still pondering, the Mother Tree that they revered gave another revelation. This time, the revelation was much longer.
Not only the fairies but also Freud, who was watching from afar, understood the meaning of the Mother Tree.
"My children, I've used up a lot of energy to take root in this realm. And in order to give birth to you, the Dream Plant Fairies, a portion of its origin was consumed. "
The Mother Tree's first sentence explained some of the doubts in the hearts of the sprites.
They didn't doubt the mother tree's words. Everything they had, including intelligence, language, and abilities, came from the mother tree, so they naturally accepted the mother tree's explanation.
They immediately acknowledged their identity. They were a race created by their mother and were called Dream Plant Fairies.
"I need some time to recover from the consumption of my Origin Source, so I might fall into hibernation. "
When they learned that their "mother" was going to hibernate, all the sprites were filled with reluctance and worry.
"Don't worry, when this barren world is covered in green, I will awaken. "
Just as the sprites heaved a sigh of relief, the Mother Tree sent a new message. "Before I go into hibernation, I need to tell you this. Compared to this barren world, you and I are outsiders. It's not easy to get a place to live, so do not destroy this realm. "
"I've communicated with the guardian of this realm. If the Dream Plant Fairies want to live and reproduce in this realm, we need to maintain a balance with the other creatures in this realm. "
"Also, if it's not necessary, try not to go to the human realm. "
At this time, although the sprites didn't have any concept of the human realm, the Mother Tree's words left a mark in their hearts.
"What if humans or other creatures want to enter our territory?" The Vine Fairy asked the Mother Tree.
After a long time, a faint response was transmitted into their minds. "... You have to control the scale of the balance. "
The Mother Tree's response came to an end. No matter who called out to the Mother Tree, there was no response.
For the Dream Plant Fairies, the Mother Tree should have entered hibernation.
Although the Mother Tree's information was limited and they didn't even know how to solve the energy bottleneck. But at least now they knew a goal and a taboo.
His goal was to turn the Barren World into a place filled with greenery. This way, they could awaken the Mother Tree as soon as possible.
The taboo was to maintain a balance with the humans. For the time being, they didn't know how to maintain this so-called balance. But since the Mother Tree asked them to control the scale, they needed to discuss it.
Thinking of this, all the sprites couldn't help but look at the Vine Fairy. She was the first Dream Plant Fairy to be born, and she was also the strongest in their race. Naturally, she became the center of attention.
"Let's communicate with the humans over there first. At least we need to know about this barren world first."
The Vine Fairy's words made everyone nod. Indeed, the most important thing now was to know about this place. Even if they wanted to maintain a balance with the humans, they had to know where the human realm was.
However, just as they were about to go over and interact with the humans, they turned around and realized that the humans in the distance had disappeared at some point in time.
"They're gone? Did they leave? "
The Vine Fairy said, "Since they've left, we can communicate with them the next time we see them. Now, before the energy from the Mother Tree disappears, continue to absorb energy. It's best if you can reach the bottleneck. "
To a certain extent, the Vine Fairy represented the leader of the Dream Plant Fairies. Her words immediately received a response. All the sprites that broke out of their cocoons calmed down and continued to absorb the energy from the Mother Tree.
Only the Vine Fairy didn't do anything because she had reached the bottleneck.
She was quietly gazing into the distance where the three humans had been standing.
Although it was said to be three humans, the Vine Fairy only remembered one of them, a young man with curly hair and dark circles under his eyes. She didn't even dare to look at the other two. Facing those two, she even had the illusion that she was facing the Mother Tree. They were even more terrifying than the Mother Tree.
If the humans were so terrifying, could they really maintain a balance with the humans?
