Chapter 520: Chapter 299: Ranked Fifth Knight Group_2
 

Only Ange would do such a thing. To think that a Trinity God is crouching on the ground watching children play with mud.

Ange nods.

“Which deity is it?”

“The God of Farming.”

“I knew it.” Negris has an “I knew it” expression: “So is this considered defining a Divine Art now? Can you use this divine art?”

Ange nods his head, kneads a bone out of the mud and picks it up.

The mud-kneaded bone turns instantly into a bone made of straw.

“…Can it only change to straw? Can’t it become something else? What use is it to turn mud into straw…” Negris sighs: “I knew I shouldn’t have any expectations.”

Originally, he thought that Ange could be a little more powerful, maybe improve this divine art. After all, Little Bu is just a child under five years old. He can transform things into straw, can’t Ange modify the art and transform them into something else? For example, into gold or silver?

This is a transformation of elements, like turning the ‘earth’ element into a ‘wood’ element. It’s a creation of a divine technique. However, of course, there is no such ‘wood’ element.

Ange tilts his head in thought, picks up the straw bone and throws it to Lightning: “Eat.”

Lightning caught it in his mouth and asked while chewing, “Why should I eat this? It’s so hard to chew and prickly. I want to eat the sprouts of the World Tree.”

Even though it was hard to swallow, Lightning chewed and swallowed it anyway. He thought that the straw Ange threw over was something special since Ange had made it. But after swallowing it, he found out that it was just ordinary straw, even the taste was exactly the same.

It had been a long time since Lightning, the dignified lord, had chewed on straw. He hadn’t tasted it since he started following Ange, usually it would be at least beet leaves.

“Ugh, it really tastes terrible.” Lightning spat out saliva, spitting out some pieces that had poked his mouth.

Only then did Ange speak: “It’s edible.”

Negris understood what he meant and said in an annoyed tone: “Yes, yes, it can be eaten and can be used to feed horses, mud into straw, for feeding horses.”

This is impossible. Don’t think that just because it’s mud turning into straw and both are worthless, it doesn’t need divine power. Consuming a lot of divine power just to turn mud into straw to eat? That’s insane.

For now, that’s all that could be done. The real reason Ange was flustered was that he could only change things into straw.

“What about the spirit in this?” Negris pointed to the consciousness in the straw owl.

After all, straw is just straw. It can’t be used as a medium for consciousness for too long before it falls apart. We need to figure out a way to transfer it somewhere else.

Ange took out a straw man’s hat. He had collected many straw man’s hats when he was on the farm, but most of them were broken until Negris got the Gold-touch Stick and fixed them.

But by then it didn’t matter anymore, there were many straw man’s hats in Durken’s palace.

He transferred the consciousness into the hat and put it back on the straw owl.

“Yes, yes, this will do. The straw man’s hat is the main part. As long as the hat isn’t broken, if the straw falls apart, you can just tie it back together.” Negris nodded and said.

The consciousness slowly fused with the hat. Suddenly, the straw owl transformed into a crude owl, a living one.

However, anyone could tell that it was a fake because the intensity of the consciousness was too low. Everyone present could see through this illusion.

Only Little Bu didn’t care. He excitedly hugged the straw owl and shouted, “Grandpa Wind.”

Under the illusion of the hat, the owl spoke in a human voice: “Dragon poop smells so bad… I am the strongest Druid… Take care, child…”

Negris had a black line on his forehead and turned around to remind them, “Don’t let Naeli see it.”

Katie nodded her head without really understanding.

There’s an additional consciousness, but it’s not complete, resembling more of an incomplete spiritual body like ghosts and specters. However, its significance is particularly profound, because it was created by Little Bu.

This is not the consciousness of Spring Breeze Druid Loui, but a consciousness given some similar behavioral traits by Little Bu based on his own memory. If anything goes beyond Little Bu’s memory, it won’t exist.

For instance, in his perception, ‘Grandpa Wind’ is just an owl. He might not even remember how Spring Breeze Druid Loui looked like in human form.

“Train him well in the future. He’s this formidable at such a young age, who knows what great things he can accomplish when he grows up,” sighed Negris.

“Alright, should we send him to Stellaris Academy then? Hiludi mentioned there’s an enlightenment class, and three-year-old children can be sent there to receive magician enlightenment. She said it’s best to learn Magic Language as soon as possible, children have the best language talent. My language ability has degenerated as I grew older. I wanted to learn Aoao language, but I couldn’t learn a sentence. But he picked it up easily.” Katie babbled on.

“And also the enli…” Just as she was about to say something, a deep voice suddenly rang, “Whoo whoo whoo – Tree Man Gore – Enemy spotted – Engage!”

The deep voice could carry very far, and the whole Goddess of Beauty City was instantly buzzing.

Ange instantly levitated and looked toward the direction of Fallen Dragon Lake.

Fallen Dragon Lake and the Great Rift form a line, looking like an exclamation mark when viewed from the sky. Goddess of Beauty City was built on the plain between the Great Rift and East River. Heading south for more than two hundred kilometers, you would reach the Hope Oasis.

If the enemy came from the south, they would first have to go through the Oasis and the desert.

The Oasis’s economy is now very active, and the traffic is busy. A large body of enemies could not silently cross the desert and Oasis, and attack Goddess of Beauty City from the south.

It’s also impossible to attack along the river course. East River’s defense is of utmost importance. Some river sections even require manpower to pull the boat across. Large groups of enemies attacking along the river would be dreaming.

The only direction that could silently be attacked is the west side of the Fallen Dragon Lake. The lake is several hundred kilometers wide and is as vast as the ocean. It’s too easy to sneak in from any direction.

Of course, Ange would not analyze that much. He looked this way mainly because Tree Man Gore was also guarding this way.

Just then, Ange sensed Anthony’s urgent call in his soul: “Lord, Lord, I’ve received information that the consumption of fodder by the Flying Dragon Knights has greatly decreased recently. I suspect that they have taken action. I don’t know whether the target is me or you. Please notify Lord Nage to be vigilant.”

Ange replied: “It’s me. I see flying dragons.”

On the surface of Fallen Dragon Lake, a dense crowd of flying dragons was flying almost skimming along the water surface, pressing towards the Goddess of Beauty City.

Flying Dragon Knights, the fifth-ranked air-mounted knight group in the realm. Their force only totals a thousand, and their mounts are very common flying dragons, a type of low-level dragon beast.

However, even though they are low-level dragon beasts, flying dragons are six meters long, with an eight-meter wingspan. They can easily carry fully armed knights for long-distance expeditions.

Unlike ordinary horses, horses need to rest after running for several tens of kilometers. Flying dragons don’t need to. They can fly thousands of kilometers in one breath and can spit fireballs and bite enemies. Even if they fall to the ground, they are huge creatures that are six to seven meters long.

When the number of these huge creatures reaches a thousand, their flight is like a cloud, a dense black.

Compared with such flying dragon knights, the flying wing knights they encountered before were simply a joke. Although the numbers were similar, their battle power was worlds apart.

Although the battle power of Flying Dragon Knights is strong, they can only be ranked fifth among air-mounted knight groups because the first four are even stronger.

For example, the first-ranked Giant Dragon Legion, the second-ranked Stellaris Mage Group, the third-ranked Double-headed Chimera Knight Group, and the fourth-ranked Gryphon Knight Dwarves.

The Flying Dragon Knight Corps belongs to the Church of Light and is directly commanded by Guliani. Obviously, after being vetoed at the Dimension Security Conference, Guliani decided to execute the proposal to expel abyss nomads himself.

The Dimension Security Conference is a regular meeting to coordinate the major powers of the dimension. But if one party does not abide by the agreement and insists on forcing it…

Then unless the other parties directly send troops and intervene with force, they can only scold them at the next conference.

In the security meeting, Ange has four allies. There will be four people to help him scold, but he needs to disperse these Flying Dragon Knights first.
