Chapter 472: Chapter 472 – World Tree Leaf
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
It could be said that at this point, the Einherjar’s numbers and quality had beco inferior.
Tens of thousands of Einherjars might look majestic, but in front of thousands of giants, they only had a minor advantage. However, after the battle began and reinforcents arrived, the Einherjar army was on the decline.
If it was not for the four Giant Trees throwing fruits at the enemy and preventing the giants from coming closer, the Einherjar army might have collapsed already.
In short, the situation the Valkyrie saw was not in favor of the World Tree.
Perhaps in the next few monts, a conclusion might co.
Seeing the situation, the Valkyrie did not dare let too many forces go after the thief. After giving her orders, she imdiately got on her horse and jumped off the tree branch.
After a light tingle, a pair of white wings grew out from the white horse’s back as it dove down.
Following her were more than thirty Swan Maidens that she had called back.
As for the rest of the swans, they were currently following the traces that Wei Xiao Bei had left behind.
After all, for the Valkyrie, the fragnts of the pedestal of the Fountain of Youth were also very important.
As she dove down, the Valkyrie instantly threw out a long pike that killed one of the strongest giants that had been caught off guard. On the other hand, the Swan Maidens had beco lovely girls. Their wings had been turned into weapons as they joined the battlefield.
Following the stunning appearance of the Valkyrie, the situation on the battlefield temporarily stabilized.
At this mont, Wei Xiao Bei was carrying Andre while running through one of the paths.
He could feel danger from behind that was currently approaching him.
Naturally, the danger that he felt now was a lot less than the danger he felt before. Wei Xiao Bei did not know that the Valkyrie had already joined the battle. Moreover, she had brought the majority of the Swan Maidens.
It could be said that the World Tree’s pathways were indeed maze-like. Wei Xiao Bei relied on Kashmir’s guidance and did not encounter any winding paths.
On the contrary, these Swan Maidens that were chasing after Wei Xiao Bei were also caught unprepared.
As they continued to go upward, the scars of battle also continued to decrease. Wei Xiao Bei had already raised his inner qi and used cosmic jing to make him float off the ground a bit. If it was not because of the pressure from the cosmic qi, there would be slight footprints on the ground that would allow the Swan Maidens to chase after him.
Because of that, it was easy to imagine how much difficulty the Swan Maidens were having in their pursuit.
After temporarily breaking free from the Swan Maidens’ pursuit, Wei Xiao Bei advanced for two hours and entered a path with a flowing creek. After following the path for ten minutes, Wei Xiao Bei felt that he was already not within the World Tree, but a giant cave system.
The surrounding walls had stopped being wood and were now a layer of li. The moss on it grew with an oily green light. The rugged terrain and strangely shaped rocks made him feel as if he was in so tourist destination in the real world.
“Ahhh! Ouch ouch ouch!”
Just as Wei Xiao Bei advanced and observed his surroundings, he suddenly heard Andre cry out in pain.
Wei Xiao Bei quickly lifted him and took a look. He saw that there was a strange fish on Andre’s face. The fish was not more than three centiters long, and a clamp appeared to have grown on the fish’s head as it rigidly clamped on Andre’s face.
Wei Xiao Bei tried to lightly pull it, causing Andre to shout in pain, showing that the clamp on the pliers was quite strong.
In the end, Wei Xiao Bei pressed on the fish with his left hand and shook it. The fish beca dizzy and let go, jumping back into the water.
This matter should be done already.
However, Andre soon cried out in pain again.
When Wei Xiao Bei removed the fish again, he carefully inspected it and saw that so more fish had gathered close by. When the distance between him and the water shortens, they would jump up, attempting to tear a piece of flesh from Andre’s face.
What fierce fishes!
As for why they did not attack him, Wei Xiao Bei could make a guess.
His body carried the aura of the Ba-serpent. Although it was a bit weak, it was enough to make these fishes shrink away.
It must be said that these small fishes were experts in aquatic battles. With their slender bodies and wide fins, they were very quick in the water.
Thinking about this, Wei Xiao Bei’s mind was moved. He stepped on the water with both legs and imdiately released electricity. In an instant, the electric light expanded, covering ten ters of the creek.
Andre who was on Wei Xiao Bei’s shoulders imdiately clenched his butt. He curled his head and legs upward to prevent him from accidentally touching the water. If that happened, he might just be electrocuted.
Following that, the fishes floated with their bellies up.
Afterward, Wei Xiao Bei stored them into his storage bracelet. Once the Life Altar awakens, these fish would be the first gene that it will absorb.
Naturally, Wei Xiao Bei had already made a good plan. He decided to eliminate large amounts of monsters like this.
As the creek continuously went up, everything he saw had opened up his eyes to the world.
There was a creature with the head of a starfish, but the body of a giant centipede. Another was a long snake that had grown claws on its tail, and another was a three-headed rabbit.
Naturally, the genes of these creatures looked a bit significant, but the significance was not that great. Wei Xiao Bei still did not waste them, since the volu of these creatures was not large. He killed them and stored them in his storage bracelet.
When they finally reached roughly twenty-three kiloters away from the ground, a light appeared at the end of the path. Wei Xiao Bei knew that the light ca from outside the World Tree.
At the altitude of twenty-three kiloters, Wei Xiao Bei walked for more than a hundred kiloters and already felt depressed.
After seeing the light, he quickened his pace and charged into the light.
When he left the inside of the World Tree, he was rather surprised to find out that the place was a circular platform that protruded out from the World Tree. Its radius was around two kiloters, and the area exceeded three square kiloters.
Many flowers and plants grew on top of it. The flowers strived to let out their fragrances and blood successively, appearing like a rooftop garden.
When Kashmir saw the beautiful scenery, it could not help but squeal in delight. It imdiately flapped its wings and left Wei Xiao Bei’s shoulder as it flew toward a flower.
According to Kashmir’s experience, a giant flower such as this should have a lot of nectar that it could drink.
Wei Xiao Bei had also placed Andre down and ran over, wanting to take a rest.
Andre had been carried the entire way over here and was swung around to the point of being muddleheaded. He only recovered after resting on the ground for a bit.
Wei Xiao Bei had used [Response Search] and saw that the giant circular platform was a giant mushroom, that had already been petrified after a long ti passed.
This deeply moved Wei Xiao Bei. The World Tree was truly like its world. It was incredibly big with many different creatures. It even had such a huge fungus. If this were placed it the real world, it would beco a big spectacle.
After resting a bit, Wei Xiao Bei waved his hand and let Kashmir rest on his shoulders. Afterward, he once again carried Andre and continued on his path.
It must be said that carrying Andre all the way was sothing that could not be helped.
If Andre was to walk on his own, Wei Xiao Bei did not know how far back he would be.
As for carrying Andre on his back? It would be a problem if sothing unexpected happens and he could not imdiately fight.
As he continued to ascend the World Tree, an adventurous feeling welled up within him, but once ti passed, Wei Xiao Bei began to feel bored.
In truth, if it was not because of him wanting to see the Rainbow Bridge at the top of the World Tree to see if he missed any treasures, he would have already returned to the real world.
After all, Wei Xiao Bei had already gained a lot in this trip to the Dust World.
He had stolen thirty-four fragnts and killed a lot, earning him a lot of evolution points!
Even if he left quickly, he would not have regrets.
It must be said that Wei Xiao Bei had wanted to go take a look at Mimir’s Well. Unfortunately, according to Norse mythology, Mimir’s Well was located at the roots of the World Tree. Who knows how long it would take for him to get there. Moreover, he would have a hard ti finding it.
He’d rather continue to go up as it was a location that he could reach.
Naturally, if soone else was to climb the World Tree, they might have already given up and returned ho.
The amount of ti that they could stop in the Dust World would mostly allow them to only reach a hundred kiloters in altitude.
At this ti, Wei Xiao Bei had already been advancing along the World Tree for three days!
The only problematic thing was that to extend the amount of ti that he and Andre could stay in the Dust World, the food that could recover stamina and ntal strength were all eaten clean, which also increased the space inside the storage bracelet.
While resting again, Wei Xiao Bei chose a leaf that was growing on the World Tree.
The World Tree was quite peculiar. The lower he was, the smaller the leaves were, but as he went higher, the leaves continued to grow larger.
What he currently rested on was a leaf that had exceeded five hundred square ters in size with a thickness of more than one inch!
Although it was not as hard as steel, Wei Xiao Bei would have to put in a lot of effort if he wanted to break it with a dagger. The toughness of the leaf was several tis that of Wei Xiao Bei’s skin.
“If I bring this back to reality, I could use it to make furniture. It should be a lot better than wood.”
