Abe the Wizard

Chapter 1315: Tree Men

As Abel chanted, a little strand of energy reached into the summoning magic patterns from the tree core.

The tree men summoning pattern began to glow in green, and the trees around him began to shake.

They instinctively wanted the cleansing from that green energy.

But Abel focused all his attention on a single tree.
Since he had only done this spell with the tree of life’s support, he could not afford to get distracted.

After all, it was one of the hardest spells he knew.

But of course, he would only have to do it once as his skill tree would be able to memorize it.

Finally, the green energy reached a threshold, and a green beam shot towards that ancient tree.

The beam directly entered its core.
Those trees were all occupied instantly, so it immediately went silent, but after a second, the ancient tree in front of him began to move.

First, the branches began to fuse and formed 2 arms, followed by a layer of armor.

Afterward, the roots reached out from the soil and formed 2 legs.

Finally, 2 close eyes were formed on the trunk, followed by a nose and a mouth.

It seemed this tree man could control its own height as well, but it was normally around 10 meters.

The extra tree branches turned into a giant helmet and wrapped around its head.

Abel could sense that it was at least a few times more powerful than the tree men he summoned before, even without seeing it fight.

Suddenly, the tree man opened its eyes.
It looked lively, unlike the dull ones in the Ervo Forest.
It was a truly intelligent being.

“Tree men commander, you granted me sentience.
According to the ancient law, I will forever follow your command!” The ancient tree meant kneeled on one knee and said with a low, raspy voice.

Abel was stunned.
This tree man really was unlike any tree men he saw.

He suddenly remembered a document he read about ancient trees in the elf royal library.
Tree men commander was a profession that roamed around with normal tree men to find water.

When needed, they would act as a commander in battle for tree men.

Also, tree men commanders were the most powerful beings in this world as they could command a sea of tree men to unleash a war.

Since each tree possessed immense defense and regeneration ability, they were almost invincible.

This was basically like this role in the last tree men summoning.
Since tree men did not have any intelligence, they needed a commander, but this tree man in front of him was absorbing energy from the environment to maintain an energy balance.

This meant these tree men had no need to return to a tree form.

“My ancient tree, you are my first summoned tree man, can you tell me your abilities?” Abel asked.

“Tree men commander, I can use powerful force to strike and use branches for long-range attacks.
We can also use our fluids to defend against fire and replenish our damage!

I can also affect any plants 1000 meters around me to grow, purify water, and nourish soils!” The tree men lowered its voice.

“I will take you away from here, are you willing to do that?” Abel asked again.

Since he was the one who summoned the tree men, he had a special bond with it, and he could withdraw the summon any time.

Although he could just directly bring the tree men away, he decided to give it some respect considering its intelligence.

“My will is to do it according to your command!” The tree men replied.

Abel nodded, but he did not take out the monster ring.
Soon, he walked towards the little teleport circle.

He wanted to see the way this tree man moved since there were too many unknown factors.

The tree men followed behind Abel, but the roots that formed its legs kept changing shape as it walked.
Therefore even being 10 meters tall, not a single tree along the way was damaged by it.

Abel stood on the teleportation circle and opened his monster ring.

“My ancient tree, come in.
I will bring you away,” Abel said.

The tree man followed and entered the black portal.

Afterward, Abel reappeared in the Rogue Encampment and returned to the Gold Castle.

He did not let the tree men out immediately.
Instead, he headed down the mountain peak of the golden castle.

The areas around were already filled with flowers since the Battlecry plateau’s transformation, but making trees grow would still take some more time.

Abel found a flat area and let the tree men out, and it soon began to float.

At first, it was a little confused as it tried its best to control its movement, but Abel immediately knew what was going on.

This tree man was beyond the legendary rank, so it could fly in this world.

After some time, it finally mastered its movement, and it landed.

“Commander, I sense an unknown energy affecting the soil here!” The tree man’s body gently tapped the ground and said.

“My ancient tree, the place you came from was suppressed and you are forbidden to talk about it to anyone!” Abel said as he didn’t want anyone else to know about the Dark World.

“Commander, I will not mention it to any other being!” the tree man replied.

“My ancient tree, do you think you can thrive in this environment?” Abel pointed around and asked.

“Commander, it is a better environment, but the energy is no where as dense.
I can survive her but I won’t be able to continue my growth!” The tree men lowered its voice.

Abel saw it coming.
The mana of the Battlecry Plateau was nothing compared to the Dark World.

It was a pity.

“Then follow me!” Abel then wrapped the tree men in his power of the will and disappeared in a flash.

They then reappeared in Doff’s kingdom.

“How about here?” Abel asked again.

The tree men reached out its branches to sense the environment, but this time it took much longer.

“Commander, I am very confused.
I feel like I am being corroded by a strange energy and I will change to another form of being if I continue to live here!” The tree man said.

Abel was caught off guard.
What does that mean?

“3 headed giant, come here!” Abel saw the 3 headed giant passing by above him and called.

The 3 headed giant immediately took a turn and landed before bowing on one knee.

“Tree men, is that from you being talked about similar to this? Abel pointed at the 3 headed giant and asked.

The tree men reached out its branch towards the almost similar height giant.

The 3 headed giant did not reject.

“Yes my commander, I will become like this if I stay here long enough!” The tree men retracted and said.

Abel finally got a vague understanding, so he asked, “My tree men, do you want to become a holy being?”

Although a tree man could live for a long time, it was still not immortal like a holy being.

However, a sacrifice that came with being a holy being was freedom.
They could only serve a single kingdom, and they were forbidden to leave it.

Therefore, Abel wanted to respect the decision of another intelligent life form.
Not just for this tree man, but the future ones he summoned as well.

Still, Abel was only planning to keep one tree men in his kingdom since they all needed Faith to survive.

Doff’s Kingdom already had 4 half god rank holy beings and 20 legendary rank flaming elves.

It was already more than necessary.

As far as he knew, a god would only keep one or 2 holy beings in their Kingdom.

“Commander, I prefer to live on the actual land.
It makes me feel more connected to the world!” The tree men lowered his voice.

“Ok then, lets go!” Abel smiled and returned to the valley below the golden castle.

He found an area beside a stream, and the tree man spread out its root and merged into the ground again.

However, its upper half remained in the tree man form.

There was one thing the tree of life did not tell Abel.
The tree men summoning spell was actually created for ancient spiritual trees.

Considering how powerful beings of the past were, summoning normal tree men would not do much in a battle.

As the years went by, ancient trees were slowly chopped down by different races, and they began to disappear with the change in environment.

Therefore, you could probably count the amount of ten thousand years old trees in this world with one hand.

Therefore, the tree of life did not tell Abel about this because it was not expecting Abel to find a ten thousand years old tree.

“Commander, I will be on your command!” After the tree man was grounded, he said to Abel.

However, Abel did not stop.
Instead, he took out a giant mana gathering circle and 5 top level mana gems.
This should be able to provide 10 years of energy for the tree man.

The tree man was feeling very good.
It could finally grow again.

But maybe it was the only tree in this world who could enjoy something like this.
Even a normal wizard would not be able to obtain a giant mana gathering circle.
