The Great Eagle was shocked by such a high price. It could not help but stutter as it tried to communicate with Glorfindel.
"That's impossible! When I came here half a month ago, it was still a sickly pine forest. There was even snow here! "
Glorfindel observed carefully and said, "You're right.
"You're right, my old friend. This place used to be a pine forest not too long ago, but the pine trees seem to have been chopped down, and then … they became food."
He picked up a stone and threw it into the water. Suddenly, a series of bubbles appeared in the water, and a smoke-like mud rose up. Then, a huge reed crooked, and half of a rotten pine trunk emerged from the water. The long white roots of several reeds were like terrifying tentacles, tightly wrapped around the trunk of the pine tree, and were robbing it of its nutrients.
Glorfindel walked to the side of the swamp and touched the surface of the water. He felt that the water temperature was not as cold as melted snow. It even felt a little warm. This should be the reason why a swamp appeared at the foot of a snowy mountain.
What made Glorfindel feel strange was that his impression of a swamp, or rather, most people's impression of a swamp was that it was rotten, muddy, and emitted a suffocating smell. Swamp vines, rotten thorns, and other plants grew there. When one stepped on a swamp, one would be deeply inhaled. Disgusting bubbles would appear and the muddy mud would churn.
However, the newly formed swamp in front of him gave off a clean, fragrant, and vibrant feeling.
The water in the swamp was not completely clear. From afar, it had a mysterious azure colour. It was difficult to see the bottom at a glance. In the deeper parts of the swamp, there were water lily-like plants floating on the surface. They had dark green lotus leaves that had accumulated enough nutrients to form soft buds. The faint sweet smell in the air should come from here.
However, in the shallower parts of the water, even the tender white roots of some light green plants floating on the surface of the water could be clearly seen. Brown striped snails and mussels could even be seen digging at the bottom of the water. Yellow and black fish could be seen swimming happily.
That exuberant vitality was so exuberant that it was terrifying! It was as if they were hallucinating that with every second that passed, the swamp would grow a little stronger!
Glorfindel snorted coldly and walked into the water. Probably due to the refraction of light, the clear water in the swamp only reached up to his calves, but in fact, it reached his waist when he stepped into it. The water temperature was not cold. After staying in it for a while, there was a kind of melting warmth.
Suddenly, there was a splash of water. Glorfindel took a few steps forward and stretched out his left hand. Between his left thumb and index finger, there was a very strange fish!
From afar, it looked like a leaf floating on the surface of the water. But now, it was being clamped between Glorfindel's fingers. It was struggling with all its might, as if every scale on its body was trying to open up and break free.
Glorfindel exerted some force in his fingers. The fish's mouth suddenly opened, revealing thin, sharp teeth. It glared at the enemy in front of it with a ferocious expression and hissed like a venomous snake.
As its voice spread out, an incomparably strange thing happened. The plants and animals in the surroundings actually began to move rapidly at the same time!
The water lily raised its leaves and moved with the wind like a sail. The giant reed pulled out its tender white roots and escaped with its feet. The clam used its axe-shaped fleshy feet to dig into the mud, wanting to dive deeper.
In a short moment, the world of vitality in front of Glorfindel disappeared. The only thing that remained unchanged was the water in front of him. It looked clear up close, but from afar, or in the depths of the water, there was an arrogant blue!
Glorfindel's hand glowed with a faint green light. Even though he had released the mimicry fish, the fish was still trapped in the green light. It floated in the air and struggled in agony, as if it was being fried in an invisible pan.
In the end, the fish actually bent its body in pain and bit its own tail. It bit off a chunk of meat and chewed it fiercely. Finally, it scattered into countless light spots and disappeared into the air.
At this moment, Glorfindel's face turned gloomy. He vaguely felt that this journey might not be as easy as he thought. But he was a powerful Twilight Elf after all! More importantly, he knew Melody's strength as well as the lines on her palm. So, he was still full of confidence.
Glorfindel started chanting a long elven incantation. He had used this incantation not long ago and it was very effective. He could feel the elemental elements rapidly converging into his body.
But to Glorfindel's surprise, the incantation took at least three times longer. This meant that the elemental elements here were pitifully small. Glorfindel didn't have time to think too much about it. After chanting the incantation, he pointed his finger at the water and dripped a drop of golden blood onto the water!
After the drop of blood fell into the water, one could clearly see the circular ripples it created when it fell into the water. The ripples had a faint green light that spread out for nearly a hundred meters!
Wherever the ripples passed, the seemingly dead swamp immediately became as lively as boiling porridge.
At the bottom of the swamp, the snails and mussels crawled out of the mud in an instant. Then, they helplessly opened their shells, revealing their white flesh. A gray prawn that was curled up at the bottom of the water like a pebble suddenly jumped out of the water. It lost its life in the air and quickly rotted after landing on the water surface.
A water snake suddenly swam out of a half-rotten pine tree and pounced towards Glorfindel. But it was paralyzed halfway and fell into the water with a splash, exploding into a pool of blood. A few pebbles like aquatic beetles fled in fear, but after being swept by the ripples of blood, they slowly floated to the water's surface....
"Stupid and inferior little things, how dare you show off in front of me?"
Glorfindel scoffed.
However, he was a little shocked in his heart. His original plan was to make a big fuss, but he had unknowingly changed his goal to investigate first.
Under the effect of Glorfindel's' Ripples of Blood ', the strange creatures within a hundred meters of him either fled or died. Glorfindel seemed to be a good swimmer as well. He swam in the water like a fish swimming in a stream. There was an indescribable sense of ease to him and he did not make any sound.
The further he walked, the more he noticed that many pine trees in the depths of the swamp seemed to have been deliberately laid flat at the bottom of the swamp. There was a layer of algae growing on the surface of the pine trees. Looking down from the transparent water, it gave off a serene feeling. Of course, Glorfindel did not know that this was Sheyan plagiarizing the scenery of Jiuzhaigou.
After swimming for a while, Glorfindel felt that he had swum out of the shallow part of the swamp. The water in front of him suddenly deepened, and the color of the water became as blue as the sea! Of course, he did not know that he had already passed through the pine forest and arrived at the lake area where Party Ace first arrived.
After Glorfindel swam here, he could not help but hesitate for a moment. He had an ominous feeling in his heart, as if something heavy was pressing against his chest.
However, if he were to return without even seeing the city that Melody had built, not to mention himself, even his subordinates would be speechless! After all, he couldn't possibly tell them that he had gone to Melody's city for a stroll, but suddenly felt uneasy and decided to come back … If that was the case, perhaps everyone else would have to think of a way out for themselves.
Therefore, after thinking about it, Glorfindel continued to suppress the strange feeling and continued moving forward. But for some reason, every time he looked at the indescribable blue water in front of him, the oppressive feeling in his heart would become stronger.
Suddenly, Glorfindel's expression changed. He could feel that the entire lake was rippling slightly. He immediately cast 4 or 5 defensive divine spells on himself, such as' Bark ',' Detect Evil ',' Bull's Strength ',' Haste '.... But while Glorfindel was casting the spells, a huge ship appeared in the distance. Oh, no, more accurately, it was a pyramid-shaped fortress made of huge trees!
The fortress covered an area of at least one square kilometer. The bottom of the fortress was a huge raft made of tens of thousands of huge logs, which allowed it to float on the surface of the water. There were even many roots growing out of the bottom of the logs to absorb nutrients in the water.
On the first floor of the huge raft, there were four huge trees in each of the four directions. Their roots firmly grasped the bottom of the huge raft and tied the huge raft together. The branches of these trees were like umbrellas that formed the platform of the second floor! The second floor looked very much like the buildings of the Elves, but it was a little rougher than before. This should be the style of the Dwarves. (To be continued.
