The Wizard’s Way Home

Chapter 99: Ancient tree of life

Kenan left the city of Harrez after handing everything over to the Earl of Kilian. From west to east, he passed the Kingdom of Gordon, the Kingdom of Thrai, and several small principalities, and overcame the eastern hills ruled by the Nords. Finally, Came to a coastal city founded by the Nords, and boarded a boat here to go to Mermaid Island.

   Speaking of the Nords, Kenan studied carefully and learned some information from Elona. Found this to be a very interesting race.

  The appearance of the Nords is very similar to that of humans. They are tall, with muscular knots, and they are good at using axes and spears. Adult men in the tribe are all qualified warriors, even children can kill wild boars and coyotes with their bare hands.

   Mercenary groups composed of Nords are very sought-after in any country.

  Nord people are not good at farming and live on hunting and fishing, and many of them live as mercenaries outside. When the year is bad, it will also invade nearby countries in groups to plunder food and consume population.

   However, these are not the places that Kenan pays attention to. What really makes Kenan curious is that the Nords are actually oviparous.

   That's right, it's oviparous. Nord's women can lay 5 to 6 large eggs after three months of pregnancy. The Nords will throw these newborn eggs into the fire and roast them. Generally, after a day to a day and a half, the little Nords will break out of their shells. And these Nords born in flames not only have not low flame resistance, but also can use a little flame witchcraft, a bit like blood warlocks.

   Little Nords also eat a lot. Half a catty of cooked meat can be eaten in one meal. After six months, I can take care of my daily life alone. The two-year-old Nord is considered an adult after going through the hunting ceremonies.

   As for the reason why such a strong Nords have not unified the continent so far, it is likely that they only follow the strong character and the short lifespan. In the history of Nords, a Nord who has lived the longest seems to have died on his 20th birthday.

   Kenan is very interested in this race, this is a natural warrior. If this ethnic group can be incorporated and transformed, then the odds of victory in a plane war will be 10% higher.

   After remembering the Nords, Kenan boarded a sailing boat made by the Nords and sailed to Mermaid Island.

   Although the Nords are very combative, they still respect the elders who have knowledge. This may be related to their short lifespan. Especially the old tree of life that has almost endless knowledge and has lived for an unknown number of years, and the Nord people simply worship it as a god.

  Many Nords are proud to worship the ancient tree of life once.

Kenan dressed himself as an ordinary Nord, and successfully obtained the qualifications to board the ship after paying some prey from the forest-Nords did not have a unified currency, except for the mercenaries who went out. Besides, most Nords are still used to bartering.

   After boarding the ship, Kenan stayed in the room to transform the witchcraft model. Kenan has succeeded more than half of the new witchcraft, just adjust a few more rune structures to complete, and then you can experiment with the new witchcraft with the wizards on Landil Island.

   The ship sailed for more than half a month and finally arrived at the Mermaid Island.

   The mermaid island is called the mermaid island because there is a huge mermaid statue on the island. However, there are no half-man fishes on the entire island except for this statue. Therefore, it is also called the Island of the Elderly or the Island of Knowledge on the Nordic nautical charts. The Nords use this name to express their admiration for the ancient tree of life.

   After the ship arrived at the Mermaid Island, Kenan followed the pilgrimage crowd to board the island.

   The mermaid statue tens of meters high shines in the sun, and the stars shine on the surface of the blue statue, which is a sign of rich silver ore.

  Kenan was surprised that there was such an extravagant creature to make a statue out of a huge silver ore. But it's relieved to think about it. Silver is a relatively valuable item in the human world. In the eyes of other races, this kind of thing may not have the high value of iron ore.

   After passing by the huge statue, Kenan and others climbed a small hill and saw a small lake in the center of the island. There is a small island in the center of the lake. A huge old tree covers the whole island. The huge tree looks like a green castle.

   Many Nords happily ran to the lake and respectfully took a sip of the lake water with both hands and drank it. According to the legend of the Nords, drinking the holy water here can enlighten wisdom and obtain the blessing of the sacred tree.

  I don’t know if Kenan can get the blessing, but the water is still very sweet anyway.

   After drinking the holy water, the Nord people happily held hands around the lake and sang songs praising the sacred tree.

   The singing cannot be said to be unpleasant, but it can only be said to be too loud and loud, and it shocked many birds that were nesting on the sacred tree to fly up, unwilling to fall for a long time.

   Kenan took advantage of an opportunity that no one noticed and used invisibility to hide. Ready to wait until these Nords leave before looking for the Old Tree of Life to trade.

   Although Kenan is not afraid of these Nords, Kenan is still unwilling to cause more trouble unless necessary. After all, the Nords may still be used in the future, and there is no need to lower their noses and trade with the ancient trees of life.

   The golden crow landed, the jade rabbit rose in the east, and the moonlight fell in a blink of an eye. The Nord people who had been celebrating for a day returned to the boat and continued to drink and celebrate. After the last Nordic figure disappeared into the night, Kenan cancelled his invisibility and slowly walked to the ancient tree of life.

   "Dear elder, the new wizard Kenan asks for an exchange of knowledge with you."

  The ancient tree of life is a kind of natural elves with a long life. Some ancient trees of life have a lifespan that is even longer than that of the gods. And this race has an extraordinary thirst for all kinds of knowledge. But their desire is only in the interest of research, and will not use this knowledge to seek some benefits for themselves. It can be said that they are the purest seekers of knowledge. It is said that the origin of the first generation of wizards is also related to the ancient tree of life. However, judging from the existing data, there are not too many arguments to prove this point.

A wave of soul connected to Kenan’s spiritual sea, and an old voice came from Kenan’s mind, "Oh, another fellow on the road to seek truth~www.readwn.com~ I am here with you. It seems that I can smell some new knowledge. I can't wait to study them. Let's start to exchange."

   said, the ancient tree of life listed in Kenan's mind a catalog of his own knowledge.

   Looking at the dense catalog, Kenan put away his excitement, and slowly picked out the knowledge that was useful to him.

   Hmm, "The Halfling's Recipe"? This is temporarily useless.

   "The Forging Technology of Dwarf Axe". This is also useless.

   "Theory of the Movement of Stars"? This is not needed either.

   "Basic Rune Analysis"? Unfortunately, this one already exists.

   "Nord's Genetic Research"? This will be left and waited to look back.

   Kenan flipped through the catalog page by page, carefully selecting knowledge that was useful to him. And the ancient tree of life was not in a hurry, but waited slowly. The long life gave them enough patience. Even if Kenan stood here for a hundred years, they would not be in a hurry.

When the sky was white, Kenan finally turned the list to the bottom, and then selected the selected knowledge, and then extracted the knowledge he had, "Dear elder, do you see whether the knowledge is equivalent or not? This transaction can be completed."

   "Have you chosen, let me take a look." A golden balance was presented in front of Kenan. One end of the balance was stacked with the knowledge that Kenan had, and the other end was stacked with the knowledge that Kenan wanted to exchange for. The balance shook and pressed down towards the ancient tree of life.

  " Greedy kid, your contribution is temporarily not enough to exchange for this knowledge, please remove a few items."

   Kenan took the knowledge one by one with a painful look, and tried repeatedly, and finally selected the items to be exchanged before the dawn of the day, "Let's do it, dear elder."
