Chapter 179: Chapter 141 Life Force Infusion Baptism_2The spectators nearby were dumbstruck, particularly Aivensa, who couldn’t help but exclaim loudly. Had it not been for the fear of affecting Gaven and the others, they would have long been unable to resist rushing over to observe up close. The spectacle they caused even alarmed the Gnolls beneath Eagle Cliff. A verdant light shot up into the sky, enveloping half of Eagle Cliff, and the Life Force brought by Lord Virginia from the Fairy Wilderness had already begun to impact the vegetation within several kilometers around Eagle Cliff. All the plants, while swinging joyfully, rustled as they grew rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye and audible to the ear. The power of the Dragon Scale Oak drawn from the Fairy Wilderness far exceeded the growth rate of its seedling, converging above Gaven’s head to form the semblance of a substantial Dragon Scale Oak shadow—although not quite as large in reality, merely less than a tenth of the size. Even so, it was already lofty enough to reach the clouds and overshadow the summit of Eagle Cliff. All the Gnolls could clearly sense the ancient and primordial breath of the Giant Dragon emanating from the shadow of the Dragon Scale Oak; many with weaker wills couldn’t help but kneel on the ground, not daring to lift their heads. "All Erde, follow me," Vice Captain Xize, though affected too, was bound by his duties and couldn’t ignore the anomaly in the sky above Eagle Cliff, so he called together a portion of the Erde soldiers and spread his wings to fly towards the summit of Eagle Cliff. With Captain Bark taken away by Gaven, he was now the highest military officer of Eagle Cliff Burrow. The closer he got to Eagle Cliff, the greater the pressure on him became; the pervasive Dragon Might caused his soul and body to tremble ceaselessly. Many Erde could not fly any further after reaching a certain distance. By the time they arrived at the cliff’s summit, only a handful of Erde remained by Vice Captain Xize’s side, either those enhanced with Dragon Blood or those who were Dragon Seekers. But upon setting foot on Eagle Cliff, Vice Captain Xize could no longer fly and had to land. Upon seeing the situation above, Xize couldn’t help but exclaim in astonishment, "Lord, Lord Aivensa..." The presence of both lords here explained everything; only they could orchestrate such a grand spectacle. Knowing now that the disturbance was caused by his own people, the last of Xize’s forced bravado dissipated, and he fell to his knees on the spot. Unlike the Gnolls who pressed their heads directly into the ground, Xize kept his neck raised—not out of pride, but because the fantastical sight before him was too mesmerizing to look away from. The massive tree shadow towering over Eagle Cliff was, astonishingly, emanating from Chief Gaven. On a Half-Elf, there existed such a pure and terrifying presence of the Giant Dragon. Had they been mistaken all along? Chief Gaven was not simply a Half-Elf but a deeply concealed Dragonborn. If so, everything made sense. It explained why Gaven chose the Gnoll Tribe as his vassal and treated the Gnolls so well. It explained why the True Dragon, Aivensa, was so close to Gaven, so willing to listen and follow. More wondrous still was the strange oak tree that was growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. One meter, two meters, three meters, four meters... ten meters... twenty meters... thirty meters. So much for century-old trees. This concept was completely shattered at that moment. Right before their eyes, a small sapling instantaneously grew into a massive tree over thirty meters tall and tens of meters wide in canopy. However, compared to the virtual image of the giant tree on Gaven’s body, the one before their eyes was undoubtedly just a sapling, still a child. That wasn’t all, two tree roots as thick as an adult’s thigh burst through the earth’s constraints, writhing and twisting in the air, entangling to finally form a huge gateway, wide enough to accommodate two carriages riding side by side. At the moment the gateway closed, Vice Captain Xize, straining his neck, found he could not see the other side of the gate; all he could see was a rippling green surface, as if it led not to normal space, but to another world. "Dragon Seeking Meditation, everyone start your Dragon Seeking Meditation, the benefits you can gain depend on yourselves," Gaven’s voice rang in the ears of every Gnoll at Eagle Cliff Burrow. In his voice carried a Dragon Might that the Gnolls couldn’t resist; they all got up with a roll, sat cross-legged on the ground, and entered Dragon Seeking Meditation. At that moment, the virtual image of the Dragon Scale Oak collapsed with a bang, its energy scattering into countless star-like sparks, dispersing all around. As they passed by the Gnolls who had started their Dragon Seeking Meditation, the sparks, as if finding their kin, directly entered their bodies, nourishing not only their bodies but also their souls. Unlike ordinary elements, these were infused with the life force of the Dragon Scale Oak. Although absorbing these elements didn’t produce immediate, dramatic enhancement effects for the Gnolls. It did however strengthen their souls and bodies, allowing them more room to grow. In other words, as the saying goes, it raised their own upper limits, giving them more potential for future growth. Some lucky ones even experienced an increase in Life Force by +1 or +2. This life energy imbued with dragon properties was only useful to the Gnolls; it was of no use to the Young Red Copper Dragon or even to Susie, who had already activated the Dragonized Template, and did not actively seek to enter their bodies. At least Susie still made an effort to absorb as much as she could, as every little bit counted, even the leg of a mosquito. Gaven felt his Soul Consciousness flooded by special alerts from the Magic Network. Your soul and body have been immersed in a copious infusion of Life Force, Life Force +1. Your soul and body have been immersed in a copious infusion of Life Force, Life Force +1. Your soul and body have been immersed in a copious infusion of Life Force, Life Force +1. ... There were a total of fifteen such messages, and on the tenth one, an additional Constitution +1. Constitution +1, Life Force +15. Gaven himself had only 26 points of Life Force, with a mere 6 points per level; this was an increase equivalent to two and a half levels. Reaching a terrifying 41 points of Life Force, even a Barbarian of the same level renowned for their Life Force would bow down in defeat, and the Life Force of a Half-Ogre Roar (Life Dice: 4D10+1D12+25) was only 56 points. Gaven was sprinting uncontrollably down a bizarre career path. Seeing that the energy around Gaven and the others was beginning to converge and dissipate, Aivensa jumped up excitedly, circling the Dragon Scale Oak sapling while chattering in amazement, "Incredible, truly incredible, I never thought a tree could really grow into a big tree in an instant, how about it? Was it successful?" Gaven smiled and nodded, saying, "Didn’t you want to be the first to try? Just pass through that gateway." "From any side?" "From any side."
