Chapter 13: Holy Water

Chapter 13: Holy Water
A few minutes later, the rescuers finally arrived.

The inspector looked at the wolf corpse which had been completely turned into charcoal and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The mighty Phantom Wolf was actually killed by a student who was undergoing practical training for the first time.

Looking at Luo Chen, who was surrounded by people and in high spirits, Bai Yang's expression became extremely weird.

The expressions of the other instructors were not much better.

The Phantom Wolf Beast that their team had spent two months, expending countless resources and manpower to tame was not able to withstand even a single blow from the summoned beast of the student who was undergoing training for the first time, and was directly turned into charcoal.

The other students were naturally stunned, and then they gathered around Luo Chen with cheers.

They knew too well the strength of the Phantom Wolf Beast. Facing this group of students, the Phantom Wolf Beast could almost be said to be a one-sided massacre...

But in front of Luo Chen, who was also a student, he couldn't even survive a single attack from one of his summoned beasts and turned into ashes...

Although they were not quite sure how big the difference in strength was between the two, they also understood that if Luo Chen succeeded, it would mean that everyone would receive an A-level evaluation.

"Brother Luo, awesome!"

"Brother Luo, are all summoners as strong as you? I want to awaken the summoner system in the future!"

Surrounded by the crowd, Luo Chen won the first place in this exam and successfully obtained the magic tool worth hundreds of thousands of dollars.

........................

With the end of the outdoor training, Luo Chen once again welcomed his vacation.

However, unlike the last holiday, Luo Chen did not choose to travel far this time. Instead, he chose to prepare for the Bo City crisis starting from this holiday.

Luo Chen first applied for a hunter qualification certificate in the hunter hall. With the help of his summoned creature of intermediate strength, he easily received the mission to go outside the Anjie.

After preparing some food in the space ring, Luo Chen left Bo City directly and headed outside Anjie.

Although Luo Chen had left a message for Tang Yue long ago, the Tribunal did not seem to have any action at the moment...

Perhaps the Trial Council has already begun preparations, but Luo Chen cannot gamble on the possibility of whether the Trial Council will make preparations.

After all, Bo City is his hometown, not the hometown of the Inquisition. The Inquisition can use Bo City as bait to lure the Black Vatican into the game, but Luo Chen cannot.

........................

a few hours later
Luo Chen, who had successfully completed the collection task, looked at the tree in front of him that three people could hug together and nodded.

This was the thickest, tallest, and most scarred tree he had found during his several hours of activities outside of Anjie.

Luo Chen is not a professional botanist, he just knows that the age of a tree can be determined by its growth rings.

But the problem is, he wants a living tree, and there is no point if the tree dies.

Luo Chen estimated that this tree should have a history of about 500 years.

Although 500 years sounds intimidating, in this world full of monsters, even plant monsters exist, and there are hundreds of years old trees everywhere...

A 500-year-old tree is only a youngster in this world...

But even so, this is already the oldest tree Luo Chen has found near Anjie.

"Well, let me use you as an experiment first."

Luo Chen patted the ancient tree, then sighed and said.

He took out a bottle of medicine emitting golden light, took out a drop with a dropper, and dripped it on the big tree in front of him... In a flash, the wind surged between heaven and earth, and thick dark clouds suddenly covered the sky above the area where Luo Chen was.

The little lightning that was originally in the summoning space also jumped out sleepily at this moment, controlling the lightning in the sky to strike directly at the tree in front of it!

As lightning struck one after another, the trees became increasingly charred, as if they would die completely in the next moment.

But as the lightning ended, the tree's charred bark revealed tender green branches.

"Ling (ヮ)"

Little Lightning sat on Luo Chen's shoulder, calling out constantly.

"You mean, this tree is going through a tribulation? You can use it as an auxiliary to the lightning and increase its growth rate!"

"(σ≧▽≦)σ."

"understood."

Luo Chen looked at the tree in front of him. He could feel that the tree in front of him had undergone fundamental changes.

It already has the most basic intelligence and recognizes Luo Chen as its master. According to the description in the novel of the previous life, the tree in front of it should be called a tree demon instead of a plant demon.

As one of Uncle Wolf's most proud inventions, this bottle of holy water was improved little by little from Uncle Wolf's original special-effect fertilizer. It has the potential to transform trees of any age into monsters...

To some extent, as long as Luo Chen has enough holy water, he can create an extremely powerful demon empire with this little holy water...

But the real problem is that the amount of holy water is limited. Even Uncle Hui can't make too much holy water when the raw materials are scarce...

What Luo Chen has in his hands is all of Uncle Hui’s stock.

In addition, trees of different ages require different amounts of holy water. A hundred-year-old servant-level tree demon only needs one milliliter of holy water, while a thousand-year-old general-level tree demon needs 100 milliliters, and so on...

Not only does it require the age of the tree, but it also requires enough holy water. Either of these is a problem for Luo Chen at the moment...

Although it is basically impossible to create a powerful demon empire relying on this holy water, it does not mean that this holy water is useless.

I can’t find a general-level tree demon, and I can’t afford it. But isn’t it hard to find a servant-level tree demon?

No matter how rubbish a slave-level tree monster is, it still has some combat power. A large number of mosquitoes can kill an elephant, let alone thousands of slave-level tree monsters.

Luo Chen did not expect to be able to stop the Winged Cang Wolf's siege by relying on these slave-level tree monsters, but as long as he could stop the group of slave-level one-eyed demon wolves at the bottom, he would be successful...

Without the one-eyed demon wolf at the bottom as a deterrent, the pressure on the guard post outside the security realm can be reduced by at least 50%, and the mages in the city can also gather forces to support the guard post or command the masses more quickly...

But the problem is, there have been lightning strikes for a whole year, the Black Vatican must have something wrong with their brains to not notice the clues.

Moreover, if I rely on myself, I will leave some traces, which will increase the risk of the tree demons being discovered by the Black Church...

Luo Chen couldn't help but fall into deep thought, and then at this moment, a light drizzle began to fall from the sky.

Will it rain in this weather?
Weather? Rain?

Yes, he doesn't need to show up himself at all. He just needs to let Uncle Wolf take over the little dark clouds on the green grassland and cooperate with the little lightning to deliberately create thunderstorms in the rainy season.

By the way, let the small dark clouds mix a little bit of holy water in the rain, make a precise attack, and then let the small lightning strike concentratedly, then wouldn’t the fully automatic tree demon assembly line be created?

For a southern city like Bo, three to five days of thunderstorms are normal. As long as the timing is well controlled, the Black Church will basically not be able to find out...
