Chapter 1422: Flying Creature

“You can make one final demand. Three requests are the most I can take. Please believe me; it is the extent of my authority,” he said as he wiped the sweat on his forehead. The virtual technology perfectly simulated this.

Lu Li didn’t know he was being called an ‘exploiter’ by the staff, but he certainly felt that way.

“How should I plant this tree?”

Lu Li and Water Fairy had already discussed this topic. They had a long list of things that were useful but wouldn’t be unbearable for the company to grant. Unfortunately, they only had one request left, so Water Fairy left it to Lu Li.

“Just dig a hole, bury it and pour some water…” the supervisor answered as he looked at the seed in Lu Li’s hand, then continued with a smile, “I’m kidding. But I really don’t know what to do with this item.”

Ruling Sword’s Grey Valley Stronghold had been planted with the Ancient of Lore. As long as the Ancient of Lore grew up, the Grey Valley wouldn’t have to be defended. The summoned trees could kill the enemies at their respawn point.

The seed he currently had in this hand was the World Tree seed.

Dammit!

If this seed was planted, how could the other players keep up?

The Ancient of Lore could summon Treants. Although they had low Defense, low Attack, and only knew a few skills, they would still win by overwhelming the enemy. However, the summon duration of these monsters was quite limited, so there was a limit to the Stronghold defence.

The World Tree on the other hand was not the same.

It summoned Wisps!

It was said that these Wisps were ancient creatures that once inhabited the Kalimdor Forest. Others said that they were actually the dead souls of the Night Elves. The Night Elves lived in harmony and served the ancient trees. They could even become trees themselves and grow into living buildings.

With the World Tree, Ruling Sword had the chance of creating a Darnassus.

Wisps could be turned into various trees and grow into living buildings, which saved them from the costs of building a Stronghold. The biggest advantage was that the Stronghold could be upgraded rapidly, and would soon become the size of a small village. It would grow to the size of a city within a few months.

Even if you discounted that matter, the Wisps were far better than the Treants.

They were all Mages and were proficient in different kinds of arcane magic. They had somewhat poor Physical Defense but took very little Magic damage. Wisps were not known for either their construction ability or their hardiness to magic, but they were known for their ability to self-destruct!

When talking about this, one had to mention a very unlucky guy.

His name was Archimonde, and he was the right-hand man of the fallen Titan Sargeras, who was one of the world’s most powerful beings and an evil Eredar Warlock.

When Azshara recklessly used magic that caught the attention of Sargeras, Archimonde and Mannoroth began leading a devastating invasion.

Accompanied by thousands of demons, they snuck through the gates under the Well of Eternity and onto the ancient Kalimdor lands. They destroyed and killed all the buildings and people as they went.

However, a young scholar named Malfurion Stormrage assembled a small group of Night Elves that defeated the demons with the help of Cenarius’ Forest Alliance and Alexstrasza, the powerful red dragon. Eventually, the portal that they used for the invasion collapsed, which split the worlds. Archimonde and his servants were banished into the Twisting Nether.

Archimonde plotted for over 10,000 in the Twisting Nether for a new invasion.

But this time, his invasion was stopped by Tyrande and her allies.

Archimonde then perceived a powerful entity, one that he had never seen before. It was the World Tree Nordrassil, who made the Night Elves immortal and allowed them to have strength beyond measure.

The World Tree was like a tempting lollipop. Archimonde threw the Burning Legion and Kil’Jaeden into the fray. He knew that if he could absorb the strength of the World Tree, he would become as powerful as Sargeras.

The battle was very fierce – Tyrande, Saar and Jaina had formed a strong coalition to prevent Archimonde from approaching the World Tree.

However, this alliance didn’t stop him. All their efforts seemed like a farce. One could even describe the situation like this – they had lured Archimonde to the World Tree, dangling the prize right in front of him.

When Archimonde climbed the World Tree, Malfurion blew the Cenarious Horn and countless Wisps rose from the forest near the World Tree. They flew to Archimonde and clustered together before blowing themselves up. This explosion completely destroyed Archimonde.

The Commander of the Burning Legion had been completely destroyed by the explosion!

This was the kind of strength being contemplated, so when the supervisor saw the World Tree seed, his mind immediately imagined the worst outcome. He immediately refused Lu Li’s request without hesitation; there was no point applying for someone like that.

In fact, Lu Li wasn’t that hopeful in receiving an answer. After getting rejected, he gave Water Fairy the opportunity to make a request.

Water Fairy asked for help with the Chain Quest that she had recently started. She still hadn’t finished it yet, but she had been stuck for more than a month.

It wasn’t difficult for the supervisor to help with Water Fairy’s quests, but he just gave her a clue.

“With the flying request, do you want a Mount or do you want to become a flying creature like Lu Li?”

The supervisor obviously couldn’t reveal all the programs he had to do his job, otherwise, it would be too difficult.

“I want to become a flying creature.”

Even Lu Li, who had experienced Rebirth, couldn’t have helped Water Fairy with this request. If she wasn’t a Druid, it was way too difficult to become a flying creature. Lu Li had been exposed to all these things because he had almost exclusively completed unique quests. There were no standard quests that would grant such a thing.

“If you want to be a flying creature, you have three choices. The first is a parrot. It is a green parrot and is quite cute…” the supervisor said enthusiastically.

“Ugly green?” Water Fairy didn’t even bat her eyelids.

“Oh,” the supervisor was speechless, and had no choice but to continue, “There is also an Owl, which is grey and similar to the owls of Darnassus, but it is smaller and prettier.”

“Hrm, your aesthetic tastes are…” Water Fairy began, then considered her words for a moment and said, “very novel!”

He thought that a grey owl was pretty; how else could that be described?!

“Ahem, everyone has a different aesthetic appreciation,” the supervisor continued. “The last one is a phoenix…”

“Alright, I’ll take that one!”
