Dungeon of Pride, Laplace-Chapter 510 510- Future Glimpse (2)

Entertainment and relaxation, that was the main purpose of this place. After spending some relaxing time there, Simon teleported to the forest spirit village.

The thing about the spirit tree never left his mind, but since I knew that Cecilia was there, he wasn't very concerned. Simon walked through their village observing the daily lives of the forest spring spirits. ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣ｏ𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢

The kids were out playing on a field while the adults were farming, ploughing and using magic to grow different kinds of plants. Everybody was busy doing something or the other.

When they saw Simon, they bowed their heads in respect others showered him with gifts that they had grown with their own powers. Looking at how jubilant and merry they were, it even rubbed off on to Simon making his mood much lighter.

The atmosphere of the forest Spring village was much brighter than before probably because they decided to move on with their lives after the incident that happened to them a couple of months ago.

They were a strong bunch of people, Simon couldn't help but think so. As he strolled around the village, he noticed that some of the young forest spring spirits have started forming couples. This made Simon realise that it wouldn't be long before the population of the forest Spring spirits thrives.

An increase in the population of the forest spring spirits meant that their power will be able to affect a larger portion of the floor. The natural energy that they controlled, would bring new changes to his dungeon allowing it to take another step towards ranking up.

Other than that, he would also have more caretakers for his dungeon in the future. In any case, it was a good thing for Simon and for his dungeon.

While he was thinking all this, without him realising, he had arrived at the mountaintop where the spirit tree was. A couple of people were standing around the tree, their hands clasped together in a prayer.

Simon spotted a few familiar faces, among them were Cecilia, Irene, Fennel and two of the [Helpers] Maya and Fay. The rest of them were the villagers.

"You are here" Irene glanced at him with her crystal blue eyes. There was no way his presence would escape her senses.

"Yeah, I just arrived a couple of minutes ago. So what is going on with the spirit tree?" Simon asked stopping beside Irene.

"My lord …" Fennel and the other tried to kneel and show their respects but was quickly dismissed by Simon who told them to continue with their task.

"I do not know but according to Cecilia, the spirit tree is trying to say something. However it's still an infant so it's very difficult to understand what it is saying" Irene replied looking at the little girl with emerald green hair who was patting the trunk of the tree as if consoling a child.

'Trying to say something? Could it be its abilities to talk with the spirits of the dead are awakening?' Simon turned down the idea as soon as it popped inside his head.

Irene had told him that the spirit tree was still a sprout, it would have to grow to become a mature tree to be able to communicate with the spirits.

"Everyone please lend me more of your strength, this child is still hungry" Cecilia spoke, she used her newfound powers to direct the vast mystical energy present in the surrounding towards the spirit tree.

At this moment, her hair shined a brilliant emerald green colour as multiple speckles of light started gathering around her.

With her butterfly like wings, she just looked like a beautiful fairy. The other forest spring spirits assisted her with their powers.

<strong>WHOOSHH…</strong> it was like invisible winds were rustling the branches of the spirit tree as its leaves shined with a brilliant pale blue light.

"Un… now sleep okay? Everything will be alright. I'll come again to visit you" When Cecilia said that, the spirit tree rustled as if saying that it understood.

After she was done taking care of the spirit tree, she turned around to face everyone when all of a sudden her eyes went wide in surprise to see Simon silently smiling at her. Ecstatic she rushed towards her brother in an attempt to get his attention and praise.

Simon spared no effort in praising her "Cecilia, your abilities are indeed very mystical".

To be able to divert the course of mystical veins which forms naturally over hundreds of years could only be described as such. Not only that, to be able to have such an affinity with the nature, truly a royalty amongst the forest spring spirit clan.

"Hehe…" Cecilia smiled, she liked being patted and praised like that by her big brother.

"Cecilia… is the spirit tree fine now?" Irene asked.

The little forest spring spirit girl nodded her head and replied "Un… it's consoled now and is growing up healthy. It must have had some nightmare for it to be crying like that all of a sudden".

"A nightmare you say? What did it see… did it tell you?" Irene interrogated further.

"Eh?! Umm… I couldn't understand most of the things it said… yeah, right it was muttering something about danger and fire" Cecilia tried hard to recall some of the words that the spirit tree said.

Hearing her words, Irene fell silent, her crystal blue eyes seemed to have drifted somewhere else.

"Big sister… is there something wrong?" When asked that, Irene quickly changed the subject. Nevertheless, this peculiar behaviour of her didn't go unnoticed by Simon.

Now that the spirit tree was pacified, all of them went back to the village together. Fay and Maya tagged along because they have something to report while Fennel brought him towards one area of the floor to show him something.

Of course, Irene and Cecilia as a matter of factly came along with him. As Simon saw the familiar area, he quickly recalled that he had installed a pond of Serenity here. This place also had those mysterious Obsidian Energy Exuders.

"My lord those huge slates that you have placed here are starting to act weirdly" As Fennel said that, a fierce mana shockwave came from the direction of the pond powerful enough to even disturb the mana within them.

"This is?!" feeling the shockwave, Simon uttered.

"This is precisely the thing I wanted to show you" After Simon and the others came near the shore of the pond, Fennel pointed out.

"That mana shockwave that hit us, came from those huge black slates that My lord has placed here. Each of those slates has been producing a shockwave like that after every fifteen minutes subsequently" Fennel reported.

Those huge black slates that fennel was talking about, were none other than the Obsidian Energy Exuders that had mutated from the obsidian slates that he bought from the shop.

The original function of the Obsidian slates was to absorb the mana from the air, store it and then transfer it to another object. Basically, it was like a battery. However, after the mutation, it had become something else entirely.

The last time he visited this place, he felt the obsidian slates release waves of pure mystical energy around the surrounding. However, it wasn't as powerful as the one he had felt now. Also when he checked with his Analysis the last time, the obsidian slates were called the obsidian Energy Exuder and was ranked [A].

However, at that time he couldn't see all of the functions of the object and thus left it alone. Would it be the same this time too? There was only one way to find out. Simon activated his Analysis.

<strong>Item-</strong> Obsidian energy Exuder

<strong>Rank-</strong> [A]

<strong>Description-</strong> Made with the Obsidian Meteor, it has the property of storing an enormous amount of mystical energy. The runes on it are the work of a famous grandmaster craft smith who chiselled it with adamantium. Only a certain number of them are there in existence.

<strong>Functions-</strong> 1) Can be used as the power core to run multiple arrays and formations.

2) ■■■■■ ■■■ ■■ ■■■■

3) ■■ ■■■■ ■■■ ■■■ ■■

Simon read the information displayed by the Analysis. Although his skill was still low level to view all of the uses of the item, he was nonetheless, able to see the description of the item and one of its uses.

According to the Analysis, it could be used as the power core for the arrays and formation. Simon remembered that there were a few arrays and formations listed on the [Shop]. However, since it was still unavailable for him to buy at this point, he did not know what it did.

"Lord Simon please tell us if we should be wary of these shockwaves," Fennel asked looking a little worried.

Well anybody would be seeing the shockwaves getting stronger and stronger day by day. Simon snapped out of his thoughts, even if Fennel asked him that, he did not what to answer.

The shockwaves of the Obsidian Energy Exuders were indeed strong and the village was not that far away from the pond. If the shockwaves reached there, would it not disturb the daily lives of the forest spring spirits living there?

Fortunately for him, he had a competent woman near him who knew what to do in this situation.

"Elder Fennel doesnot have to worry. The shockwaves of the obsidian energy exuders are just the expulsion of pure mystical energy and are by no means harmful. Nonetheless, it would be too disturbing to have the shockwaves reach the village".

"Don't worry, I will do something about it so that you wouldn't have to worry about it anymore". Irene said, her eyes calmly observing all of the seven slates each of which was positioned at the edges of the pond encircling it in the middle.
