Chapter 412 Recruitment Order for Natural Allies, Huge Mission Rewards!
The flower fairies all stopped what they were doing and stared curiously at this unexpected guest.
This village is not only inhabited by flower fairies, but also by many other natural creatures that belong to the lawful good or neutral alignment.
Flowers and butterflies danced gracefully in the air.
The moonlit deer gracefully glides through the flowers.
Several bear-like creatures were rolling and playing in the mud.
The Ark even spotted the figure of a burly tree-man.
It stood quietly beside a large tree, its massive trunk covered in moss and vines.
These are all natural allies of the flower fairies.
In terms of defensive capabilities alone, this flower fairy village, while not as sturdy as the lava demon camp that the Ark had previously destroyed, was not far behind.
Although the flower fairies are small in size, their spiritual abilities and symbiotic relationships with natural creatures are enough to defend against most external threats.
After a while, Zhang Wu and Ye Yinzhu emerged excitedly from the treehouse next to them.
Behind them, a delicate flower fairy, about the size of a thumb, stood on Zhang Wu's shoulder and followed along.
Arriving at the Ark, the flower fairy fluttered its butterfly wings and flew to the Ark, bowed deeply, and then said softly, "Thank you to our friendly allies from the Sea City Military Academy, and thank you to this powerful necromancer."
You helped us eliminate that Lava Demon tribe and saved us from a catastrophic disaster.
I will do everything in my power to repay your help.
As she spoke, the flower fairy leader clapped her little hands.
Soon, inside the Flower Tribe, a group of flower fairies worked together, carrying several bottles of exquisite liquid, and staggered to the front of the ark.
Each bottle is decorated with exquisite petals and vines, making it look exceptionally delicate.
The flower fairy leader said somewhat embarrassedly, "Lord Fangzhou, Lord Zhang Wu, and all the other respected lords."
This is just an outpost, and we don't have many supplies left, especially few suitable for strong individuals like you.
This is the latest purified Moon Spring Water refined by our race after the energy level upgrade. It can have a very strong soul nourishing effect on Black Iron level professionals.
Please enjoy.
Upon hearing this, Fang Zhou raised an eyebrow slightly.
He had previously exchanged a large bottle of Moon Spring Water from Zhang Wu, but that was only an apprentice-level cultivation resource.
Unexpectedly, after the energy level of the Nature Forest space fragments was upgraded, these flower fairies were even able to purify the Moon Spring water into purified Moon Spring water.
With the addition of the word "purification," the effects of this Moon Spring water are greatly enhanced, making it significantly effective for Black Iron-level professionals like those in the Ark.
This is precisely the soul nourishment resource that Ark had been searching for but couldn't find at the trade fair.
Although he now possesses the repaired Mirror of the Heart and the Sighing Flower, which has been enhanced by the slumbering underworld, in terms of resources for nourishing the soul.
These factors have greatly improved the speed at which his soul recovers after daily meditation.
Not to mention her personal assistant, Liu Diewu, who can unleash her "Water-Soaked Heart Nourishing" skill every day.
It can be said that the Ark's daily soul nourishment rate is almost at its maximum.
If you add the purified Moon Spring water provided by these flower fairies, then Ark's ability to multitask and control the leveling speed of his skeletal clones every day can undoubtedly reach a peak in a short period of time.
Fangzhou glanced at Zhang Wu, saw him nod slightly, smiled slightly, and took the purified moon spring water that the flower fairies were carrying with great effort.
"Then I shall accept your offer." Fang Zhou raised his head and said to the Flower Elf leader, "Haicheng Military Academy and the Flower Elves are eternal allies."
We all belong to the lawful and good camp, and it is our inescapable responsibility to expel evil.
You don't need to be so polite with us.
Everyone can say nice things, but this flower fairy sentinel rarely heard anything as thoughtful as what Fangzhou said.
She tugged at her petal-patterned skirt a little embarrassedly, then covered her face and said, "I'm really sorry, Lord Ark."
We are just a small outpost here. Although we have some natural partners here, we don't have any resources.
The only things we can offer besides these purified lunar spring waters are our natural partners and ourselves.
If you wish, you can temporarily recruit these natural allies near our village.
Although our direct combat capabilities are certainly far inferior to yours, everyone has some unique skills.
Like the Butterfly Maiden, who can scout out enemy positions for you in the Forest of Nature.
While Moon Deer aren't skilled in combat, they are incredibly agile when running and jumping on natural terrain, making them a suitable mount for you.
At this point, the flower fairy sentinel leader paused, a determined glint in his eyes, and pointed to himself and his people, saying, "Besides these natural creatures, my people and I can also accept your employment."
Although we are cowardly, afraid of fighting, and disgusted by the sight of blood.
However, when these evil monsters invade our home, even the weakest flower fairies are willing to give their lives to protect it.
Hearing their leader say this, the little flower fairies who were carrying the purified Moon Spring water for the Ark all nodded, their faces full of determination.
However, this serious atmosphere, coupled with their excessively petite figures and appearances, made them seem somewhat adorable.
Upon hearing the statements of these flower fairies, Zhang Wu, Liu Diewu, and other nature-attribute professionals were all somewhat excited.
Zhang Wu asked first, "We're going to be fighting those monsters on the front lines."
Are you really ready for battle?
The leader of the flower fairy sentinels nodded and said firmly, "Of course. This is the will of nature."
As long as you are within the Nature Forest area, we are willing to provide assistance.
However, we lack the ability to engage in direct combat; we can only provide a certain boost to the nature-attribute professionals among you by possessing and transforming into a spirit form.
Our spiritual abilities will grant you additional protection and support in battle.
At this point, the flower fairy sentinel flapped its wings somewhat shyly and said softly, "You must do your best to ensure our safety."
We are really, really not suited for head-on combat.
Liu Diewu, Zhang Wu, and other natural attribute professionals exchanged glances, all seeing the excitement in each other's eyes.
They had all visited the Forest of Nature's spatial fragments many times before, but these feudal and conservative flower fairies had never agreed to fight alongside them.
It's important to know that flower fairies participate in battles in only one way: by using their spiritualized innate abilities to possess natural-attribute creatures and provide them with powerful amplification effects.
This ability not only greatly enhances the host's combat power, but also provides additional protection at critical moments.
However, using their spiritual talents comes at a great cost.
Each spiritual transformation consumes a large amount of energy and can even put a certain burden on the flower fairy's body.
The best results can only be achieved when the flower fairy truly trusts the other person and completely opens her heart.
What nature-attribute professionals like Liu Diewu and Zhang Wu desire most is to form such a spiritual contract with a flower fairy, thereby gaining their possession and spiritual enhancement effects.
Now it seems there is finally hope for this matter.
Although the current leader of this flower fairy sentinel only seems willing to possess and transform into a spirit to help them fight within the area of the Natural Forest spatial fragment.
But this is already a huge breakthrough.
A thousand miles begins with a single step.
They've already agreed to possess me; all I need to do is build a strong bond with them during the upcoming battles and earn their true trust.
With the simple-mindedness of these flower fairies, wouldn't it be a natural thing to trick them out of the Forest of Nature's spatial fragment and bring them back to Earth?
Let's leave aside the thoughts of the several natural attribute professionals for now.
The flower fairy leader looked at Ark and said, "Lord Ark, you have really helped us a lot this time."
According to our agreement with Haicheng Military Academy, we will record your military achievements truthfully as evidence for your promotion.
The purified Moon Spring water I just gave you was only a small part of the reward.
When you reach the Queen, we will do everything in our power to repay you.
Also, Lord Ark, I heard from Lord Zhang Wu before that you also have a summons issued by the Queen.
This is actually a heirloom of our Flower Fairy clan. After being unsealed through special means, it can bring you certain beneficial effects.
Fang Zhou was slightly delighted, not expecting that the petal token would have such an effect.
He handed the flower petal token to the flower fairy leader and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you."
The flower fairy leader carefully accepted the petal token, which was almost half the size of her body, and flew back to her people.
The surrounding flower fairies quickly formed a circle, flying in a specific rhythm, creating a mysterious and wonderful natural magic circle.
At the center of the magic circle, the petal token was slowly lifted up, and a turquoise light gathered from the tips of the flower fairies' wings, condensing on the petal token in the center of the magic circle.
As the light gradually intensified, the petal token, which had been dull and lifeless, seemed to have been nourished by spring rain, regaining its vitality.
A few minutes later, the light gradually faded.
The flower fairy leader flew back to the ark and handed it a brand-new petal token.
Fangzhou accepted the token, opened his attribute panel, and checked the description of the oddities.
【Dance of the Flower Fairies】(White Common, Rare Item): A rare heirloom of the Flower Fairy race. The holder of this item is a distinguished guest of the Flower Fairy race. One Black Iron-grade 【Rejuvenation Spell】can be used daily, restoring up to moderate injuries; in natural attribute environments, mana regeneration speed is increased to a certain extent; the life force of the Flower Fairy race can be sensed within a certain range.
A rare triple-effect item!
The daily Rejuvenation spell, coupled with the passive increase in mana regeneration speed, are both very useful for Arknights.
In addition, his ability to sense the life force of flower fairies makes him even more adept in the Forest of Nature.
Fang Zhou solemnly pinned the Flower Fairy Dance to his chest, saluted the Flower Fairy Sentinel leader, and said, "Rest assured, I will do my utmost."
These flower fairies are all very simple-minded creatures, but at the same time, they are exceptionally perceptive of people's feelings.
Therefore, after receiving assurances from the powerful warrior Ark, the Sentinel leader was so excited that he danced around the Ark a few times before calming down.
"Lord Ark, you are a powerful necromancer, and you must desperately need resources or materials with necromancy attributes."
Unfortunately, this is a natural forest, and most of the materials produced here are of natural properties.
We probably can't help you with that.
However, I know the Queen still has some resources left over from when we escaped from the mythical world; perhaps she has what you need.
Fang Zhou nodded and said, "That's right. If I have the chance, I would love to pay a visit to Her Majesty the Queen."
Upon hearing this, the flower fairy sentinel's face immediately turned melancholy, and it said, "However, during this period of energy level enhancement, the geographical environment of our Nature Forest has undergone great changes."
Communication between our tribe and Her Majesty the Queen's tribe has become somewhat cut off.
We don't know what the situation is like over there either.
Fangzhou's eyes flashed, and he immediately realized that this was yet another brand new mission.
He raised his hand, allowing the flower fairy leader, who was somewhat tired from flying, to rest in his palm, and then said, "No problem, as your loyal ally, I will do my best to clear the road between here and the Queen's tribe."
However, it's getting late, so we'll have to wait until tomorrow to proceed.
The flower fairy leader lifted her little skirt, gave a slight bow to Fang Zhou and the others, and said, "Tonight we have prepared many fresh fruits and fine wines for our big allies."
All the natural allies in the camp will participate.
Lord Ark, please enjoy yourself.
Although Ark was already quite satisfied with the spoils he had seized from the Lava Demon camp, he was still pleased with the sincerity of his flower fairy ally.
Putting aside the recorded military achievements, the fact that these flower fairies generously provided him with purified moon spring water for a month and the right to recruit natural creatures is enough to meet the Ark's current needs.
Not to mention the ordinary-quality white "Flower Fairy Dance" token he got for free.
While the flower fairies were still preparing their banquet, Ark led the members of the Disaster Squad to visit the nearby natural creature camp.
With the Flower Fairy Dance tokens worn on their chests, these natural creatures were very friendly to them.
Considering that most of the upcoming battles will take place in forest terrain, Ark selected four of its strongest Moon Deer as mounts for the Scourge squad.
Although these moon deer are not large, they are extremely fast runners, especially adept at navigating through forests, making them ideal for rapid movement and mobile combat.
