League of Legends Invasion One Piece

Chapter 197 Dashu Maokai

"Our boss wants to see you..hubao"

The tree that was burned like a "human stick" lay on the ground and said weakly: "See him. You will know the answer you want."

The six people looked at each other, and Chu Feng said: "We have to pass through here anyway, and we will definitely see each other."

"Let's go, you lead the way." Chu Feng turned to the tree that looked like a "human stick".

It shook its head and walked aside, and the surrounding trees followed its movements. A road appeared in front of everyone, with trees of different shapes on both sides of the road.

Some are complete, a bit burned through. Some were half burned, and some were burned into human sticks.

They looked at everyone with different expressions, some were calm, some were fearful, some were gloating, some were resentful, and some were very happy and excited.

None of these emotions are scary. The most terrifying thing is the one with a calm face. The kind of expression that is as calm as looking at a dead person. It was as if everyone had turned into dead people.

Chu Feng and others had no feelings about these inexplicable emotions. The strong would not be afraid of the weak's emotions. How could the eagle care about the mood of the ant?

They are actually interested in this so-called boss. After all, he is considered the king of the forest here and his strength should be pretty good.

Because the boss spoke, no one could stop Chu Feng and the others. They came to a clearing, which was the center of the entire plain.

After arriving here, the tree returned to its original position. There are dense trees everywhere outside the open space. It looks like it is surrounded, and it also looks like the boys are worshiping here.

The open space is large, with a radius of one mile. The grass in the open space is tall and tender. There is a sense of déjà vu as if you are seeing cattle and sheep in the meadow.

In the center of this open space, there is a stone house.

Smoke curled up from the stone house, apparently cooking was in progress.

Everyone walked on the green grass and walked to the stone house. Tam looked at the smoke and shouted, "Do you want to treat us to dinner?"

"of course."

A voice came from the stone house. The voice was very old and heavy, and the tone seemed unhurried.

"When friends come from afar, they naturally want to have a casual meal."

Countless branches stretched out from the stone house, and tables, chairs, meals, etc. were placed on the lawn in front of the stone house.

The voice in the room came again.

"Please sit down."

"I still have a soup that I haven't made yet. It'll be here soon."

As the saying goes, don't hit someone with a smiling face. It's hard for them to come up and fight if the other person is so polite. Everyone was not afraid and sat directly on the table, leaving the main seat free.

After a while, a tree spirit came out of the stone house, holding a pot of fresh soup in his trunk-like hands.

"Come on, come on, have a taste of my cooking."

Only then did everyone realize that the so-called boss in the tree's mouth was the twisted tree spirit Maokai, known as the Big Tree.

Since he is a hero of the Valoran continent, except for the emotionless person named Gravedigger, everyone naturally feels like a fellow countryman meeting a fellow countryman.

Chu Feng asked the key question, "Maokai, why are you here?"

"And what answer do you want to tell us? Is it the whereabouts of your wife Calista who dug the grave?"

Dashu smiled slightly and said: "Eat first, we will talk about these things later."

The tree was once a peaceful natural spirit that lived in a beautiful forest. However, the arrogance of humans caused Maokai to bid farewell to his leisurely life.

Now twisted by dark magic, he defies the natural laws of life and death and becomes a violent shadow of his former self. Infused with energy he never asked for, this powerful dryad became a vengeful force of nature. Wild magic and branches as hard as steel are his weapons to cut off enemies, and his purpose is to explore various methods on Valoran to restore the Shadow Island to its former glory.

Before the Shadow Isles became a place of the dead, the islands were filled with natural vitality and beauty. The Sacred Forest of the Islands was once a very real paradise, with lush trees and countless animals and creatures. When the King of the Shadow Isles ordered his wizards to forcibly break through the barrier between life and death, the sacred grove was used by the wizards as a magic well to draw deep energy.

The wizards' ritual successfully corrupted the cycle of life and unleashed forces beyond their control. The life force drained from all living things in the Shadow Isles: towering trees withered into shriveled bark, humans transformed into twisted shadows, and forest spirits became hollow wandering spirits.

The tree, the most powerful spirit in the sacred forest, watched in horror as his world collapsed and died around him. He fights endlessly to repair the wounds of the world, but still cannot end the destruction caused by human stupidity. The pale energy (of death) kept eroding this powerful spirit, and he finally decided to make a desperate attempt to save life in this place. The center of the spiritual energy of the sacred grove is an ancient oak tree, and the tree chooses to possess this oak tree. The rotting aura of the undead hungrily gnaws at everything it touches, while the trees work hard to funnel the essence of the isles into the oak. The endless magical energy was the tree's solid backing, preventing him from being swallowed whole by the corrupt aura, but the spirit body was not unscathed.

Now imbued with the essence of life and death, the tree merges with the ancient oak and twists into a creature filled with hate. For centuries, only pain and sorrow accompanied the spirit.

His branches grew stronger as everything he knew and loved fell into desolation, and his roots grew as his rage grew against the reckless wizards who destroyed his home. But everything that once was no longer exists. The big tree has preserved the last remaining spark of life on Shadow Island. With it, there is hope that life can return to this land.

The tormented shadows on the Shadow Island flocked to the life essence within the tree like moths to a flame. The tree fought hard to protect the seed of life from falling into the hands of the ruthless undead, but the tree knew that he could not stop them forever.

He must escape the land of the dead that was his home, so he throws himself into the sea, trusting that nature will lead him to a place full of life. There he hopes to find a way to drive out the undead and bring life back to the Shadow Isles.

"If you defy the laws of nature, you will reap the consequences." - Big tree.

After finishing the meal, Dashu began to clear away the dishes. Countless tree roots sprouted from his body and he put the dishes and chopsticks back into the house.

With everything that happened last night, Dashu made a pot of tea for everyone.

I have stories and I have tea. The tree began to tell stories about him.
