Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong Chapter 2712 1490: Curtain Falls and Silence
Previously on Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong...
Amid the resounding cheers reverberating through the grand hall, Leo Ray's thoughts turned to the words Lina had shared earlier.
It was clear that the Treant Forest's Life Force originated from the Nature Series Leyline energy, which the ancient Treant Magic Barrier had amassed deep beneath the ground.
Put simply, the Nature Attribute Magical Ley Lines served as the vital foundation for the Life Force.
Yet, because of the ancient dragon war, the Treants had been compelled to drain every bit of magic leyline energy under the forest, resulting in a barren and lifeless woodland.
From what that girl had described, her own tribe had faced a similar draining of nature attribute magical ley lines, depriving them of vital nutrients and nearly causing their complete wipeout.
Luckily, her magic teacher had wandered into her village at that moment and revived the nature attribute magical ley line using a unique method, rescuing the entire group.
As for the identity of her magic teacher, it went without saying—it was Frank, the legendary hero Leo Ray had recently brought into his service!
With that realization, Leo Ray turned his gaze toward the brown-robed elder, who caught the look and approached without delay.
"Your Majesty, do you have any instructions?"
Frank placed a hand over his heart, bowing deeply as he addressed Leo Ray with utmost respect.
Having battled together just moments ago, the admiration this Human Clan elder held for Leo Ray had soared to new heights.
"Sir, the matter stands like this."
Leo Ray gave a slight nod and laid out the full details for him.
"I see. Truth be told, Your Majesty, I did restore the magical leyline in Lina's village many years back."
Frank kept his respectful stance and went on, "Regarding the Treants' Life Force issue, I've caught wind of it. That said, the magical leyline needed for the Treant Forest dwarfs the one in Lina's village; they're not even comparable in power, especially since it involves converting the magical leyline into Life Force."
"Precisely, and awakening all those faded Treants would demand a massive surge of Life Force, implying the leyline energy has to be vastly plentiful."
Leo Ray nodded in contemplation, his expression firm, "Sir, I realize this challenge is immense, or else the shrewd Treants wouldn't be at such a loss. Still, we have to push forward."
"I grasp Your Majesty's resolve."
Frank nodded firmly, his face mirroring that determination, and added, "Frankly, Your Majesty, the technique I applied to Lina's village was a magical leyline siphoning method, essentially channeling nearby nature attribute magical leylines toward the depleted zone."
"This demands two key requirements: one, a suitable magical leyline must run close to the depleted land, and two, a siphoning formation must be erected to create a channel that redirects the magical leyline to the barren area."
At this juncture, Frank's tone grew somber as he continued, "Though it might seem straightforward, the process is far from easy. For instance, you must first assess the strength and extent of the nearby magical leyline to determine the channel's breadth. A single misstep could cause a backlash in the magical leyline, sparking a devastating magic explosion that wipes out all in its path."
"Thankfully, the magical leyline by Lina's village was mild and contained, right next to the depleted land, so I managed to pull it off with relative ease."
As Frank spoke, Leo Ray reflected and gave a nod of agreement.
He spoke the truth; magical leylines appeared benign, yet they harbored immense danger.
In the past, Loren Royal City had crumbled in a single night from a comparable disaster.
Moreover, even the weakest magical leyline overwhelmed a typical Tier 6 powerhouse, as seen during Red Night's ascension ceremony.
Not even the Dragon Clan, with their resilient scales, or a matching Red Dragon could withstand it without the aid of rare incantations to survive the magical leyline's trial—otherwise, doom awaited.
On top of that, a sudden magical leyline burst might unleash "Corrosion," making matters even graver.
"Sir, what steps should we take next?"
Leo Ray collected his mind and posed the question once more.
"Your Majesty, I'll handle the magical leyline survey myself. It's a tough undertaking, but I studied the relevant method in an old Beast Taming Magic Book, which fits my expertise perfectly."
Frank nodded back, "After locating the magical leyline surrounding the Treant Forest, we'll need to gather premium magic crystals—they're essential for building the siphoning formation."
From Frank's explanation, Leo Ray gained deeper insight.
The premium magic crystals in question mainly came in two varieties: the pure Elemental White Crystal, and the nature-aligned Forest Crystal suited to the attribute leyline.
"Got it, sir. I'll entrust the whole operation to you. Grey Elder and Yonir will join to support your efforts."
Leo Ray nodded at Frank, then offered a warm smile, "Welcome back home, sir. The Human Clan has transformed beyond recognition, ready to fulfill your every requirement, so no more drifting through the Outer Region for you."
