However, the appearance of the Abyss brought more possibilities.
The arrival of the Life Tree Vine once gave him hope of regaining vitality.
At first, the Life Tree Vine did not catch his attention.
It was the Berg Family that initially conducted research on the Life Tree Vine and genetics. He obtained so research materials and discovered the feasibility of this research.
Afterwards, he took half of the Life Tree Vine from the Berg Family and sent it to the Prudence Island laboratory for human experints.
After a fire at the Berg Family’s genetics laboratory in Layden City, he demanded that Will Berg give him the remaining Life Tree Vine.
The Life Tree Vine originally belonged to the Creator Organization and not to the Berg Family.
The Phoenix Family promised to share the research results, and other mbers of the Creator Organization agreed that he would take charge of the research.
Based on the existing research data, the research appears promising.
Therefore, Lawrence Phoenix paid increasing attention to the research, but unexpectedly, the Life Tree Vine was suddenly stolen.
...
This conversation confird two things for Lawrence Phoenix.
Indeed, it was Lu Heng who stole the Life Tree Vine, and the Life Tree Vine is no longer on Blue Star but has been sent back to the Elf World.
As for going to the Elf World to grab the Life Tree Vine again, this idea is no longer feasible.
Not to ntion that the Elf Clan will definitely be on high alert; the Phoenix Family no longer has the ability to take things from the Elf Clan.
If all the core mber families of the Creator Organization combined their strength to form a super team, there might be a glimr of hope.
However, since the last raiding team was annihilated, the Creator Organization has suffered heavy losses.
Now, the superpower organizations controlled by the Creator Organization are trying their best to hide and avoid being tracked down.
Thus, assembling a powerful team in a short ti is basically impractical.
More importantly, even if the team is assembled, it would need to await recruitnt before entering the Elf World.
If the Elf World never issues a recruitnt notice, they will have to keep waiting.
Others can wait; Lawrence Phoenix does not have the luxury of ti.
Hence, this plan is fundantally infeasible.
Lawrence Phoenix sighed deeply, finally saying, "Thank you for this eting, and a last word of warning, be wary of Will Berg, he’s a madman."
Once he finished saying this, the communication screen was cut off.
Joyce bowed respectfully and said again, "Thank you for making ti to et the boss. I’ll see you off the car. If there’s anything you need, I’m happy to help."
Lu Heng glanced at him and said, "You’d better exit the country through official channels. If your whereabouts suddenly vanish, so interesting things may unfold."
Joyce bowed and agreed, "Yes, I will."
...
After getting out of the car, Lu Heng returned to the Qionghua Tianshulu District.
By evening, Su Muyu teleported back.
"How was it?" Lu Heng proactively inquired.
"Very smooth, I worked with Elder Serren to help Orelana remove the undead aura, and it was effective."
Su Muyu patted her chest, exhaling a long breath, and continued, "Luckily we were fast enough, the matter of Orelana being tainted with undead aura already leaked out.
"When I teleported over, the internal tension among the Elf Clan was high, rumors even claid that Orelana was under the control of the Evil God.
"The Arcane Council convened several etings demanding to examine Orelana’s body personally to ensure the safety of the Elf Clan.
"If it weren’t for Terres’ continual opposition, things might have spiraled out of control.
"When I went over, the Arcane Council was nearly on the verge of revolt."
Even rely hearing it from Su Muyu, Lu Heng could sense the tense situation.
Su Muyu’s account of the Arcane Council being about to "revolt" was a sarcastic remark.
In fact, from the Elf Clan’s standpoint, the Arcane Council’s actions weren’t wrong.
Because Queen Orelana indeed had an undead aura, indicating that she might have already fallen into becoming an undead Banshee.
If the Elf Queen truly turned into a Banshee, one could imagine the clan facing total disaster.
For securing the clan’s safety, the Arcane Council demanded to examine the Queen’s physical condition.
This request was actually reasonable.
However, once Orelana is indeed confird to have an undead aura, what would follow?
The inevitable outco would be the Queen facing impeachnt, with the Elf Clan needing to choose a new Elf King.
The Elf Clan had already gone through nurous predicants, and switching to a new king again might lead to internal divisions.
Supporters of Orelana and proponents of a new Elf King would inevitably clash.
The already ill-fated Elf Kingdom, under such turmoil, how long could it withstand the Abyss invasion?
Therefore, Terres insisted on opposing the Arcane Council’s decision, preventing anyone from contacting the Queen.
Terres is the strongest entity within the Elf Clan now, hence he has this ability, but if this situation continues unresolved, it will surely lead to bigger issues.
The Elf Clan was already at a critical juncture.
Fortunately, Su Muyu managed to return the Life Tree Vine at the crucial mont, aiding Queen Orelana in purging the undead aura.
Su Muyu reflected emotionally, "After removing the undead aura, Orelana summoned the Arcane Council and all the upper echelon elves from Kolos City, appearing in person to dispel their doubts and completely quell the turmoil."
Lu Heng then asked, "So, did you gain anything during this trip to the Elf World?"
Su Muyu imdiately showed an excited expression, nodded, and said, "Yes, after assisting Orelana in removing the undead aura, the Knowledge Ancient Tree used part of the Life Tree Vine to help unlock the Apprentice Rank.
"Now I have an apprentice rank in the Fourth Transition level; I can study Natural Magic, but it’s pretty challenging.
"I ca back to ask, what Natural Magic should I focus on learning? Judging by the difficulty, it’s impossible to master multiple in a short ti."
Lu Heng, hearing her say this, knew what type of Fourth Transition rank she had obtained.
In the Fourth Transition ranks, there are indeed so particularly special classes that grant eligibility to learn certain abilities.
These classes are terd as Apprentice Ranks and inherently provide minimal combat power but offer the opportunity to learn.
Such as learning Natural Magic.
Learning magic isn’t sothing any creature can do. The Elf Clan can learn magic mainly due to the existence of the Moon Well.
Therefore, humans can only acquire this eligibility through such special ranks.
This Apprentice Rank carries significant late-stage potential, but if Natural Magic can’t be mastered early on, its true capability won’t be realized.
Su Muyu continued, "I might need to frequent the Elf World, so I need to quickly learn Natural Magic."
Lu Heng clenched his fist to encourage her, "I believe in you, keep at it."
Su Muyu nodded earnestly, "I will do my best. The Knowledge Ancient Tree gave two suggestions, leaving with two Natural Magics to choose from.
"The first is the [Forest Speaker], which allows you to hear the words of plants and retrieve the information they know. Of course, that’s just a taphor for understanding the plants’ conditions to obtain information.
"The second is [Summoned Creature Enhancent], which can strengthen combat power by up to 30% and can be applied to the Qingluan Divine Bird, Life Tree Vine, and Tree Vine Trap.
"These two Natural Magics vary in type. The first is of the Perception System, and the second is of the Summoning System. I’m unsure which one to learn first, so I ca back to ask you."
Lu Heng did not imdiately give an answer but first asked her opinion, "How do you feel about it?"
Su Muyu pursed her lips and said, "Actually, I’m really curious about [Forest Speaker]. Being able to feel the plant’s condition seems like a remarkable ability.
"But I’m worried that this Natural Magic doesn’t provide much help; [Summoned Creature Enhancent] enhances combat power more directly, and mastering it offers tangible growth."
Lu Heng smiled and said, "You’ve actually already made up your mind. Since you like [Forest Speaker], why not start with this? You can learn more Natural Magic in the future, take your ti."
Receiving support, Su Muyu imdiately decided, "Alright, I’ll first study [Forest Speaker] and see what it feels like."
From that day onwards, Su Muyu would often sit on the balcony talking to the potted plants, looking as though she was genuinely conversing with the plants.
