Si Sheng had already deactivated his Passerby Halo.
They were standing in front of the giant black tree, less than a meter away from it. However, the Shrieking Tree Demon didn't react at all.
It was like an ordinary tree. Other than its frightening appearance, even Xu Sili couldn't feel any danger from it.
"Brother Sheng, could this be related to the ruins you mentioned?" Xu Sili looked at the ugly Shrieking Tree Demon and finally couldn't help but reach out his hand.
Si Sheng didn't stop him.
He nodded and said, "Yes."
Xu Sili's hand had already grabbed a black vine that was wrapped around the Shrieking Tree Demon.
The vine looked wet and soft, but it was dry and rough to the touch, just like the bark of an ordinary tree.
Xu Sili raised his eyebrows, grabbed the vines, and pulled them out.
"Snap —"
The vine was actually torn apart by him!
Xu Sili looked at the thing in his hand. The originally black vine suddenly lost all of its gloominess after leaving the tree and turned into a light brown vine.
Sure enough, this giant tree was disguised as an ordinary tree!
Xu Sili looked up and used the Insight Spell on the giant tree in front of him.
[Great Siassar Banyan]
Age: 123 years
Species: Great Siassar Banyan, produced in the Roland Empire, also known as the Tree of the Inscriber.
Inscription Already Carved: Disguise (Disguise as a specific object, must meet certain conditions)
Inscription Status: Activated, working normally.
Looking at the information displayed by the Insight Spell, Xu Sili was stunned.
Inscriber … Inscription …
He opened the inventory panel and looked at the description of the Shield of Siassar. Sure enough, he saw the words "Immortal for 100 years due to the special inscription".
So, this ruin …
Could it be the inheritance of the Inscriber?
Yet another new profession!
Xu Sili was very excited. He threw away the vine in his hand and opened the future forum to search for information related to the Inscriber. Unfortunately, he didn't find any clues.
In other words, the Inscriber was a profession that future players hadn't explored yet, just like card masters.
Xu Sili thought for a moment and understood.
Since the Great Siasa Banyan Tree was only produced in the Siasa Jungle and was also known as the Tree of Inscriptionists, then this was very likely the birthplace of Inscriptionists.
However, the future players had once abandoned this place because of the Shrieking Dryads.
Later on, the players, who had high-tech weapons and equipment, adopted the method of directly bombarding the monsters to kill them.
Even if there was any kind of succession here, it should have been destroyed by such violence, right? Perhaps the demons who lived here were also killed in the cannon fire?
Xu Sili had no way of knowing.
He looked at the great banyan tree disguised as a Shrieking Tree Demon and suddenly thought of a problem.
The Shrieking Tree Demon should be a tree that appeared after the natural disaster a hundred years ago. Then who carved the inscription on the Great Banyan Tree? So it could camouflage itself and survive?
This person was definitely an Inscription Master. Did he also survive? Like Elder Huo, Ms. Ina, and the others, they had also survived from a hundred years ago until now?
Xu Sili frowned, then sighed.
It was hard to imagine that someone could survive in this place for a hundred years.
Senos and Sirene had survived in the wild for four years and had more or less developed psychological problems. If someone had really lived here for nearly a hundred years …
He felt that this person might be a psychopath.
Xu Sili looked away from the great banyan tree and looked at Si Sheng. "Let's go and take a look at the ruins."
Si Sheng nodded and continued to lead him into the depths of the forest.
The surrounding scenery was still so gloomy and scary, but Xu Sili kept using the Insight Spell and found that …
There were many ordinary plants in disguise!
They were all engraved with the "camouflage" inscription. This kind of camouflage protected them and prevented them from being discovered by their natural enemies.
Xu Sili had already discovered that the camouflage also played a role in the sense of smell in addition to vision.
Basically, as long as you didn't touch them, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between them and mutated plants.
This kind of protection might be the reason why these ordinary plants were able to survive.
Among them, he saw that the youngest one was only five or six years old, which meant that …
At least five or six years ago, someone had engraved the inscription on it! That Inscriber was really still alive in this world!
Xu Sili was a little excited.
He now understood that outside of the reclaimed land of the Roland Empire, there must be many native life forms of Esnow Star. They were struggling to survive in the dangerous environment of the wild.
Senos and Sirene were like this, and so were the Sea Elves.
And now, there were still fairies and Inscribers.
Perhaps as Roland's pace of expansion increased, more and more native life forms would be found before they completely disappeared!
Thinking of this, Xu Sili couldn't help but feel excited.
He still welcomed these native life forms of Eshe Star. After struggling in such a difficult environment for so long, he believed that they wouldn't harbor too much enmity towards Roland, who had extended a helping hand.
Xu Sili thought for a while and couldn't help but open the mission panel and issued a long-term mission.
Save the lost Ancients.
Currently, there were actually fewer players participating in the land clearing operation because there were many fun things that distracted the players. Although clearing monsters was still the best way to gain experience, the other ways to play were too tempting.
When they couldn't level up for a long time, the players naturally wouldn't focus on leveling up.
If they were to develop steadily, perhaps they should stop at this time and focus on building the foundation. But the problem was …
Let the two million Elementalists do nothing all day long? Who told them not to do proper work all day and only know how to pick fights?
Xu Sili felt that this wouldn't do.
He still had to guide the players to fight more Interstellar Beasts in the wild. They shouldn't waste their time at home and occasionally destroy public property.
If they wanted to fight, they should wait until he built a few more arenas. Currently, the arenas in Mercenary Town were far from enough.
Xu Sili issued the mission. As for whether it could attract players? He wasn't too worried about this.
Because what did it mean to be lost Ancients?
It meant that they could develop into a rare race! Just like the Forest Elves and Sea Elves.
To the players, this was definitely an unimaginable attraction. Not to mention other things, becoming the savior of a race was enough to satisfy many of the chuunibyou players.
At this time, Si Sheng finally stopped.
Xu Sili put away his other thoughts and looked in the direction that Si Sheng was looking at.
Unlike the Asmo Trial, this Inscriber's Ruins didn't seem to be automatically transported. Perhaps it was because there were still Inscribers alive.
In front of them was a Shrieking Tree Demon. It looked ferocious and terrifying, but Xu Sili already knew that it was just a disguise.
"Is there anything special here?" Xu Sili asked.
Si Sheng's gray-blue eyes flashed with a golden light. He said, "This is the entrance."
Xu Sili blinked. "Are you sure?"
He looked at the disguised Shrieking Tree Demon again and reached out to touch it. However, this time, Si Sheng grabbed him.
"Ali, don't move."
He held his hand tightly and then reached out with his other hand towards the Shrieking Tree Demon. In the end, his hand went straight through.
Xu Sili was slightly stunned. Then, Si Sheng reached out and grabbed his waist. Then, the two of them crashed into the "tree" together.
He subconsciously closed his eyes.
However, he didn't feel any pain. Instead, he felt like the world was spinning. His body went up and down. The alternating weightlessness and excess weight was extremely uncomfortable.
Finally, after some time, their feet landed on the ground.
Xu Sili opened his eyes in a daze.
When he looked up, he saw that he was inside a very, very large tree. He was like a stone at the foot of the tree. When he looked up, he was filled with shock.
"Where did such a large tree come from?" Xu Sili muttered.
Then, he used Insight on the tree.
[Great Siassar Banyan]
Age: 156 years
Species: Great Siassar Banyan from the Roland Empire. It is also known as the Tree of Inscriptionists.
Inscriptions already carved: Disguise (Can disguise as a specific object. Certain conditions must be met), Fairy Barrier (When entering, the body will shrink to the same size as the fairy)
Inscription status: Activated, functioning normally.
Xu Sili blinked.
Damn!
"It's not the tree that's big, but … we've become smaller?" He couldn't help but ask.
Was this also the effect of the inscription?
Xu Sili looked at his body and carefully felt the power in his body. He then looked at his personal panel and found that …
All his attributes had been weakened!
After becoming smaller, his strength directly returned to the level of one star. It was weakened by about a hundred times.
This feeling was a little uncomfortable.
However, Xu Sili wasn't very afraid. After all, Si Sheng was by his side.
Si Sheng, on the other hand, was very calm from beginning to end.
Si Sheng looked up and scanned the surroundings. He whispered, "Quite an interesting barrier spell."
However, this wasn't a problem for him.
The man raised his hand and threw a light barrier at Xu Sili. Then, he closed his eyes slightly.
It was unknown how he did it, but his body began to gradually become bigger. In other words, he gradually returned to his original state.
Xu Sili couldn't see his full appearance even if he raised his head.
Under the protection of the light barrier, when Si Sheng's body touched him during the process of becoming bigger, he automatically flew up and avoided the danger.
Finally, Si Sheng, who had returned to his original state, opened his eyes again.
He reached out and caught the silver-haired youth floating in mid-air. Looking at the mini Xu Sili, Si Sheng was slightly stunned.
So cute …
He stared at him without blinking. In the end, he couldn't help but reach out and touch him. However, the youth hugged him with both hands.
"What do you want?" Xu Sili hugged his fingers and said angrily.
Si Sheng stared at him and said, "I want to see you become an Ocean Fairy."
