Chapter 522: Wu Yuansheng's Misfortune
g Bing remained silent for a long time, unable to utter a word.Li Kong looked at the stunned expressions on these players' faces, and his heart was filled with joy.One's usual manner in public adds 1...Wu Yuancheng and Xinghe City, as well as Heishi City, are all different. The buildings in Xinghe City are mostly made of metal and alloys, while those in Heishi City are made of black rocks.
Wu Yuancheng is located in a vast and boundless forest. The entire city almost merges with the forest, their buildings are almost all made of hollowed-out trees, and some are tree houses built on giant tree branches.
When Lu Kong first arrived in Wu Yuan City, he was amazed to see the hundreds or even thousands of meters tall giant trees hollowed out, forming buildings.
The style of Xinghe City and Heishi City are completely different.
Here, there are a multitude of treants and orcs. Besides them, there are also some humans and other intelligent beast-kin native to this land.
Lu Kong rode his beloved silver-flame dragon, Yan Mo, onto the massive plaza in the center of Wu Yuan City.
Because I don't know the location of the Dark Forest Treants, Lu Kong found a cat person and asked: "Hello friend, I want to ask where the Dark Forest Treants live"
"The Treants of the Dark Forest" The cat-person's expression was somewhat strange, looking at Lu Kong with surprise and a hint of wariness in their eyes.
However, soon this cat-person seemed to have discovered Lu Kong's identity, his face slightly changed, a hint of surprise: "You... You are Lord Lu Kong"
The change in the feline indigenous people, however, was no surprise to Lu Kong.
After all, his reputation is quite high throughout the entire Newcomer Continent of Orion. Moreover, his favorability among the natives of the Newcomer Continent can be said to be full.
He had already experienced this kind of treatment when he went to Blackstone City before.
Lu Kong smiled and nodded: "I'm Lu Kong. I wonder if our friend could tell me"
This catman looked at Lu Kong, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Lu Kong, what is your relationship with the Dark Forest treants There's no benefit to being associated with them."
Lu Kong was stunned for a moment, a little confused.
Based on his previous conversation with the Ancestor of the Darkwood Treants, the Darkwood Treants should have a pretty high status in Wu Yuan City, right
What is this attitude like among indigenous people
Could something have happened
"Really I met the ancestor of the Dark Forest Tree Spirits before, and he invited me to visit Wu Yuan City. I don't know much about the Dark Forest Tree Spirits. Could you tell me more"
Upon hearing this, the cat-person displayed a glimmer of understanding, followed by a smile: "I told you so With Master Lu Kong's talent and position, how could he possibly be associated with such a group"
He paused, glanced around to make sure no one was listening, then whispered, "This isn't exactly a secret in Wu Yuan City. A few days ago, the city lord and his men found traces of the Corrupted Claw Demon at the Treant Clan's estate in the Dark Forest! They've been colluding with demons this whole time, but it was only just discovered!"
Lu Kong was startled. The Dark Forest Tree People actually colluded with demons
Then how come he didn't feel anything special when he communicated with the ancient tree spirit of Anlin before
It shouldn't be like this. Given his current soul strength, if the Darkwood Treants are truly connected to the Rotclaw Demons, then as the ancestor, the Darkwood Treant Ancestor must have had in-depth contact with the Rotclaw Demons.
He must have left traces of demonic energy on his body.
According to his soul strength, it should be perceptible.
How could I have not noticed it back then
Then Lu Kong thought of the soul-devouring demon's split soul within the Glowing Saint's Ruins.
Could there be special high-ranking demons within the ranks of the Corrupted Claw that are similar to those beings
If that's really the case, then there's a possibility he might have misread it.
Lu Kong's mind raced with thoughts, and then he asked, "Friend, I'd like to buy you a drink. Could you tell me more about it in detail"
This catman scratched his head and smiled, "Actually, I don't know much. Only a few days ago, a big battle happened in the Dark Forest Tree Man Estate. Many top experts from Wu Yuancheng joined in, even the city lord was alarmed. After the battle ended, the city lord issued an announcement saying that the Dark Forest Tree Man clan had pledged allegiance to the Corrupted Claw Demon. We indeed felt the demon's aura during the battle. However, it seems like the Dark Forest Tree Man clan was prepared beforehand. That battle didn't wipe out all of them. They seem to have escaped with some."
Lu Kongping listened quietly, nodding from time to time: "So that's how it is..."
Then he thought of something and asked, “Where did those dark forest treants go”
The cat person nonchalantly said, "Who knows Maybe they followed the Corrupted Claw Demon to the Demon Realm Or perhaps they're hiding in the Corrupted Claw Demon's lair, plotting and scheming to destroy our Wu Yuan City, seeking revenge!"
Saying this, the catfolk seemed startled by their own thoughts, shivering slightly before laughing and saying: "Lord Lu Kong, I'll just pass on the drink. I have other things to attend to, and that's all I know. If there's nothing else, I'll be taking my leave."
Lu Kong nodded and smiled, "Thank you, friend. By the way, this is for you."
Lu Kong took out a tiny skill stone and handed it to the cat-like indigenous people.
Actually, Lu Kong doesn't need skills stones of this level right now. However, he still has some minor and basic skill stones on hand just in case.
After all, when communicating with others, being generous will definitely leave a better impression. This way, your goals are more likely to be achieved.
Not everything can be solved with force.
This catfolk indigenous person saw the miniature skill stone, stunned for a moment, some bewildered: "Miniature skill stone This is for me"
Lu Kong smiled: "Well, thank you to my friend for just helping me clear things up."
The cat-people natives were dumbfounded. They only answered a few questions and received a tiny skill stone
This thing is very precious!
He hurriedly declined, saying, "Master Lu Kong, you're being too kind. There's no need."
Lukou smiled and forcefully shoved the tiny skill stone into the hands of the cat-person native, not giving him a chance to refuse.
The cat people natives were a bit flustered and stammered their thanks.
"By the way, where was that darkwood treant clan's estate located It involves demons, and as a player, I feel obligated to look into it."
The catfolk indigenous people instantly fell silent in respect, opening their mouths to say, “Lord Lu Kong, your righteousness is admirable. With your talent and potential, you are sure to make a name for yourself in the Central Continent! On the Demon Battlefield, your name will be remembered by many! And it will terrify the demons!”
Lu Kong's mouth twitched, here we go again.
These people keep repeating the same old phrases, nothing new at all.
It's better to compliment him on his good looks.
Lu Kong smiled: "I hope so."
The Darkwood Treant Estate is located in the central district of Wu Yuan City, close to the direction of the Tree of Life. That's where the nobility of Wu Yuan City resides. The Darkwood Treants were once one of the top powers in Wu Yuan City. The estate was very large, and after a few days of fighting, the estate has become a ruin, and it's easy to find.
The catfolk indigenous pointed in the direction of the noble district, introducing it to Lu and Kong.
Lu Kong nodded, thanked the cat people tribe, and then mounted his beloved silver flame dragon Ennu, flying towards the Darkwood treant manor.
As the cat-people indigenous to this land said, it was indeed easy to find.
After all, in the aristocratic district, there was only that one ruined estate.
The manor is surrounded by guards, and some personnel inside are clearing the debris, apparently investigating the situation.
Lu Kong rode on the Silverflame Dragon Yanmo, heading towards the ruins..There are dozens of such houses at every interval.Merfolk are walking around the hut.Some of them were fishing in the water, while others were on guard with weapons.Near each little house, there are...
