Bang!
The carriage landed heavily before the two people. The door was quickly yanked open. Ankama, the King of Holy Lake jumped out.
"Uncle! My uncle! You've finally come!" The young man jumped forward with tears in his eyes.
Ankama turned sideways with a pained expression to evade the young man's pounce.
"Can you not exaggerate?" He was slightly exasperated.
"I can't take it! I can't take it any longer! All my clothes are wet. Only vine armor can be worn. I don't even have undergarments. This life…." The young man crawled to his feet from the ground and cried mournfully.
"Enough! Stop making noise. Do you want the guest to think of you as a joke?" Ankama said sternly.
"This is?" A calm male's voice came from the carriage.
The young man raised his head and saw a blonde-haired young man about his age walking out from the carriage. He was handsome and fair. His pair of scarlet eyes was faintly glowing red, especially the three red dots on his eyebrows.
The man wore a full-body black robe. On his left breast was a simple silver dragon head pattern. He looked like a perfect prince from a fairytale.
The young man compared himself with the guest. Compared to his own wet, messy, helpless image, the other party looked ten thousand times better. A sense of shame instantly gushed out from his heart.
"This is Fenrir. My brother's fourth son. This is Fensal, the fifth daughter. Both of them are here especially to welcome both of you." Ankama quickly introduced.
Both of them stood up straight and officially bowed towards Garen and Wukang.
"Welcome to the Ancestral God Canyon."
Compared to his brother's immaturity, the younger sister Fensal projected a much better image. Her mannerism was on point. With her beauty and figure, she was dressed in a new green vine armor, revealing her fair long legs and some skin. She gave off a refreshing sense of sexiness.
"Sorry to trouble both of you." Garen politely smiled.
The six of them, under the lead of the brother and sister, headed towards the waterfall.
The carriage automatically followed behind, leaving two distinct tire tracks on the ground.
In the forest on both sides of the waterfall, two to three-meter tall giant snails could be seen everywhere. The snails were slowly crawling in the forest. Some of them were stuck on tree trunks, some were sleeping in bushes, while some were chewing barks and flowers.
Most of these snails were grey. They carried a round shell each. None of them were affected by Garen's party.
Fensal walked in the front and introduced the surrounding environment with a loud voice.
"According to statistics, there are forty-two different types of snails in the snail forest. The smallest ones are two to three meters tall while the largest ones are five to six meters. They occupy different ecological fields. The ones surrounding is now are the basic grey snails. These snails have strong sticky liquid. At the same time, they have incredibly poisonous stings hidden. Once they face danger, they will shoot poisonous stings. They are very powerful and can counter totem light. According to valuation, they are on par with a third form totem user."
"Oh?" Garen never thought that the peaceful giant snails around had such powerful abilities.
"Grey snails like these are all over the forest. Other than them, there are also Lightning Snails, Volcano Snails, Corroding Snails, Rampaging Snails. Especially the Rampaging. Look, there's one over there." Fensal pointed at the forest on her left.
Bang, bang.
Within the forest, there was a giant snail humanoid with a shell on its back. It was incredibly muscular. As it was patrolling, every step produced a low sound. Its body was fully grey, like a grey-skinned giant. The only thing was it had an additional giant shell.
The two antlers on its head were swaying to the right and then to the left.
These giant Rampaging Snail had a human face with a ferocious expression. It stood up straight and walked on two limbs as it patrolled around the vicinity. It was a standard giant creature about five-meter tall.
Fensal smiled as she introduced it.
"The Rampaging Snails are the strongest guardians here. Each one of them has Spiritualization and basic intelligence. They have huge resistance towards totem light. They are incredibly strong and fast, and also have rampaging abilities. However, we have an agreement with them to protect the balance of nature together. As long as we do not disturb them or destroy their surrounding environment, they will not initiate an attack."
Garen and Wukang let out expressions of praise. This manner of living together could only be seen in Daniela.
"I've heard of King Phiroth of Daniela advocating harmony with nature. Only by seeing it first-hand, I can experience the difference it brings."
"Father's beliefs are the goals that we pursue." Fenrir finally found an opportunity to speak. "With these beliefs as the foundation, our Daniela formed the only Three-Dimensional Combat Squad in the world!" He spoke with a hint of pride, and at the same time stared defiantly at Garen.
"Three-Dimensional Combat Squad?" Garen asked out of curiosity.
"This is just a one-time experiment. We have not succeeded yet. Please head here." Fensal instantly interrupted her brother's gloating. She gave him a fierce pinch, which almost caused him to shout.
Ankama stared helplessly at his own nephew. This man was obviously concerned about his redundancy. Although Garen was the same age as him, he was long playing on a different level. Both parties could not be compared at all.
The six of them descended along the cliff, then followed a small path to the back of the waterfall. Large amounts of water poured down on the left, stirring up a chilling breeze.
Very quickly, the party arrived at a semi-circular protruding stone platform. Whitewater from the waterfall was flowing on both sides of the stone platform. Only the front was empty.
A handful of white vine armored guards were on guard at the two sides. Two white-robed totem users were waiting on the stone platform. As they saw the arrival of the six of them, both of them bowed slightly.
"Head to the second Ancestral God tree," Fensal ordered the two totem users in a loud voice.
The two of them nodded and took out a magnifying-glass like a golden ring and blew with all their might.
Shhhhhh…..
After the blowing sounds, two transparent bubbles instantly appeared. From the size of a fist, it quickly expanded into the size of a soccer ball, then the size of a basin, then the size of a bathtub. Finally, it became a giant, three-meter tall bubble.
"Please come up." Fensal was the first one who headed for the bubble. She squeezed her body and instantly entered the air bubble.
The rest of them followed suit and walked towards the air bubble. The six of them were split into two groups. Fensal stood with Garen and Wukang, while Ankama and Fenrir stood with the female guard.
The air bubbles instantly floated up and headed towards the sky.
"The airspace here forbids flying creatures, tools or tactics without a pass to fly, especially the central Ancestral God Pillar area. Only natural air bubbles like these are allowed. The forbidden airspace has the support of the Ancestral God Pillar. Even a strong totem user will not be able to fly without a pass. Moreover, there are also flesh butterflies who act as guardians. Look, they are over there. The flesh butterflies have huge resistance towards totem light, and can cause huge damage towards fire types…"
Fensal cheerfully introduced every detail of the surrounding environment to Garen.
This green-haired girl slowly leaned her body closer and closer towards Garen.
Daniela's girls were straightforward towards love and hate, They didn't cover up much. Like meant like.
Fensal obviously took a liking towards Garen.
Nobody cared about Wukang on the side. He sat alone admiring the scenery.
Garen carefully listened. From time to time, he raised his hand to touch the inner wall of the bubble. It was soft, like the texture of a balloon.
"This is the Ancestral God Tree rubber bubble. It can expand and contract. Different Ancestral God rubbers are naturally attracted to their respective Ancestral God trees. With this principle, we use the rubber bubble for transportation." Fensal slid her hand through the arch of Garen's arm. She leaned her whole body on Garen's side.
"Oh yes, Lord Garen is not married yet?"
"Yes. Not yet. But I have a fiancee." Garen quickly clarified. Fensal's actions made him feel a little dangerous.
"Nevermind. Compare to your rumored fiancee, I think I'm the most suitable one for you." Fensal volunteered. "I like you. Take me home?"
Garen was made speechless by her straightforwardness.
"Do not be impulsive, Sixth Princess. Aren't we still unfamiliar with each other? Moreover, it is impossible for me to give up on my fiancee."
"Aren't I still young? You are also still young. Shouldn't young people have vigor? Who cares about being impulsive. Leaving behind beautiful, painful, regretful memories, aren't these treasures when we become old? Shouldn't young people be impulsive?" Fensal didn't mind at all. She pressed her firm chest on Garen's arm. "I can't wait to give you my body as a memory." She lowered her voice and spoke flirtatiously.
"Precisely because you are young, isn't it much more possible to meet a better one? Isn't it unwise to decide too early?" Garen adviced helplessly.
Finally, the bubble arrived at a giant brown tree and landed on one of its branches.
From to time, other bubbles landed on the branches around. The people that came out were also led by others. They were evidently foreign totem users like Garen's party.
Each branch of the giant tree was ten-meters wide. The top of the branch was flat, and there was a wooden fence on the side. Two totem users were on guard here, like the two totem users in the bubble.
As Garen and the rest exited the air bubble, they instantly smelled a rich honey smell. The sweetness was similar to brewed honey; incredibly tempting.
Tiny white lights flashed faintly in the air. The lights could be seen but couldn't be felt.
Garen tried to use his hand to catch but it was intangible. His fingers passed by the middle of the faint light.
"This is the Ancestral God Light. For our guests who love nature, it reduces their fatigue." Seeing that Garen didn't want to say much, Fensal changed the topic.
Giant vines surrounded the Ancestral Tree trunk. These green vines were like mountain paths. They circled around the giant tree, forming connected paths with the branches.
Under Fensal's guidance, Garen and the rest walked out of the branches and headed downwards to the vines.
The vines were seven to eight meters-wide. From time to time, white vine-armored guards who were leading guests would pass by. Some of them directly entered the holes on the trunk, some of them headed upwards on the vines to board the air bubbles, while some were walking downwards.
Garen carefully admired the beauty of the scenery. The clear air made his mood better. As he was genetically fused with the Nine-Headed Hydra, he was naturally drawn towards beautiful things. This naturally made his mood better.
Qiu qiu… Qiu qiu…
Suddenly, a noise came from the front. It was like the cry of a child.
Very quickly, on the vine path ahead, a group of small milk-white and light yellow mushrooms were jumping and leaping. They happily passed the feet of Garen's party. Some of the small mushrooms even circled around Garen's party before catching up with the rest of the group and continued rushing downwards.
Garen and the rest were awed. After walking for a while, they met another group of small mushrooms. They lined up and happily passed Garen's feet. They were jumping and leaping like kids.
