Chapter 305 The Game of Hide and Seek Begins
After enjoying the recovery of his physical strength and soul power, Wu Heyi finally remembered the purpose of coming to this level.
He slowly opened his eyes, and what came into view was a vibrant scene, full of lush plants. The branches and leaves of the plants intertwined and swayed gently in the breeze, as if telling a mysterious story.
Seeing this scene, Wu Heyi knew without much thought that the guardian of this level must be a wooden dragon.
After all, this floor is covered with lush plants everywhere, and this kind of scene arrangement is undoubtedly to match the characteristics of the Wood Dragon people.
However, as he leaped and traversed back and forth between the two continents, although he wasn't extremely active, he inevitably damaged a lot of plants in the process.
Wu Heyi pondered to himself, "Logically speaking, the Wood Dragon people must have placed great importance on the plants within this level."
Strangely, despite having caused so much damage, the other party still hadn't shown up, which made Wu Heyi feel very uneasy, like a thick fog hanging over his mind that he couldn't shake off.
So Wu Heyi tried to call upon the gatekeeper.
"Hey, is anyone there?" His voice echoed in the quiet plant world, but there was no response.
He raised his voice and shouted, "Wooden Dragon Man, come out here!" There was a hint of urgency in his voice, but the surroundings remained silent.
Wu Heyi even uttered provocative words: "Come out and issue missions, Old Deng!"
He tried all sorts of languages and tones, sometimes speaking in a gentle, soft voice, like a gentle stream.
Sometimes he would hurl sarcastic insults, but no matter what he did, the wooden dragon man acted as if he didn't exist at all, showing no intention of responding.
Wu Heyi jumped around like a headless fly, gradually feeling quite tired.
He unconsciously walked to a super huge tree. Its trunk was so thick that it would take more than a dozen people holding hands to encircle it. Its dense branches and leaves stretched out in all directions, like a giant green umbrella.
Wu Heyi leaned against the tree and slowly sat down, wanting to rest for a while.
His mind was filled with doubt: Where on earth did this wooden dragon go?
If he doesn't come out and issue the task, I have no idea what the challenge of this level is all about.
And so, Wu Heyi waited anxiously and doubtfully for a full half hour.
Suddenly, he felt the earth begin to tremble slightly, the tremor coming from afar, like a thousand horses galloping.
Wu Heyi's nerves tightened instantly, as he was wondering what had happened.
But in that instant, the enormous tree that Wu Heyi had been leaning against suddenly left its original position without warning.
A thought flashed through Wu Heyi's mind, and he immediately became alert, standing up and looking back.
On the giant tree, there was a shape that looked like a human face. The lines were rough but still clearly discernible. A pair of legs grew from the sides of the tree. Although the shape was peculiar, it also exuded an indescribable majesty.
The giant tree seemed to have just woken up, slowly yawning, and then said to the astonished Wu Heyi, "How come you came so quickly? I thought it would be ten or fifteen years before you could get in!"
Wu Heyi was startled by the sight before him, but he tried his best to calm himself down and asked, "So you are a Wood Dragon!"
He looked up at the enormous creature before him, feeling the oppressive force emanating from its massive size, yet he still couldn't believe what he was seeing.
Upon hearing Wu Heyi's words, the giant tree extended a finger resembling a giant vine, pointed to its own face, and said, "Are you talking about me?"
The voice was deep and resonant, as if it came from the depths of the earth.
Then he added, "No, I am merely a guardian created by the Wood Dragon God!"
Upon hearing this answer, Wu Heyi's eyes widened in surprise: "Wow! Are the Wood Dragons really that clever?"
He then asked, "Where is that wooden dragon now?"
After asking the question, the giant tree beside it slowly extended a finger, which seemed to be wrapped in green vines. It pointed the finger at Wu Heyi's feet and said, "Lord Wood Dragon God, haven't you always been right beside your feet?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Heyi looked down in surprise.
At first glance, there seemed to be nothing at his feet, but upon closer inspection, it wasn't completely empty. There was a lush little lawn, with blades of grass swaying gently in the breeze, looking no different from ordinary grass.
Just as Wu Heyi was filled with doubt, something miraculous happened.
Then I saw those little blades of grass, as if suddenly given life, straightening up from the earth and standing up.
Each of them is an independent individual, short in stature, just like a group of little dwarfs.
With joyful smiles on their faces, they began to happily circle around Wu Heyi, their little bodies moving merrily. Then they all said in unison:
"Challenger, welcome to the world of the Wood Spirits!"
Wu Heyi was genuinely surprised to see that these little grasses could actually speak. He never expected that these seemingly ordinary grass people were actually Wood Dragons.
His gaze darted back and forth between the tiny grass figures and the giant tree figures behind him. The stark contrast between the two created a visually overwhelming effect on him!
At this moment, 20 little grass figures that began to turn red emerged from among the grass figures at my feet. One of the grass figures stepped forward and said:
"This level is very simple, let's play hide-and-seek!" The small voice carried an unquestionable tone.
It continued, "Wait a moment, these 20 of me will hide in these two forests. If you can capture or kill all of us within six hours, you win; otherwise, you lose!"
Wu Heyi looked at the 20 little grass figures that had turned red, silently calculating in his mind. He felt that this task seemed quite simple, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly, revealing a confident smile.
Then, all 20 red blades of grass vanished in an instant, and Wu Heyi watched as the countdown above his head suddenly started moving.
Wu Heyi knew the challenge had begun, and at the same time he heard the giant tree man shout, "Let's start playing hide-and-seek!"
