Surviving The Fourth Calamity
Chapter 2232 - 807: Leonard’s Gains and Losses
Although both methods make plants possess purification abilities, inducing plants to develop autonomously in a certain direction using the environment, and then continuously collecting seeds that have formed some memory to cultivate them again using the same environment, produces very stable purification plants.
It can even form stable heredity after several generations of offspring.
On the other hand, the way the Tower of Nature cultivates is more like using some spell to mutate these seeds during the embryonic stage... Though the outcomes are the same, these seeds never have heredity.
Many of them don’t even produce seeds.
Thus, Druids do not agree with the path of Nature Mages, and some extreme Druids even see them as enemies of nature.
But on the flip side, compared to real mages, at least Nature Mages do not easily harm intelligent creatures... Their spells always need to obtain permission from the natural law.
Nature Mages actually seem more like they are using the act of obeying certain natural laws and protecting the surrounding natural environment to exchange for part of the permissions from the natural law.
Other types of mages, even if they know the spell rune models of Nature Mages, cannot use them.
Even mages of the kind alignment are the same.
Then, Leonard found another path because of Hill’s presence.
His grievances with the Tower of Nature have already been washed away... Although, all in all, Leonard and Star Mountain Range still suffered bigger losses.
But in reality, they gained the greatest benefits.
At least, those at the Tower of Nature cannot even smile... Especially those smart guys who didn’t want to pay the price themselves and collectively pushed out Leonard as a half-elf with a bit of auditing nature.
But this benefit was not given by the Tower of Nature!
In essence, they still didn’t abide by the agreement with Star Mountain Range... Leonard’s good fortune shouldn’t blind them to the arrows from the shadows behind him.
Yet sometimes, some things can’t be explained so clearly, especially now when the elves are starting to return to Supreme Forest in this grand event.
Leonard can only choose to issue a statement completely separating from the Tower of Nature, and the reason can only be that he prefers the path of Agleyashield, so he needs to make a cut with past ideals.
Everyone knows why he is putting himself through such grievances... Yet what else can he do with his parents still inside Star Mountain Range?
Moreover, Leonard indeed became the final victor... The reason elves prefer assassination to openly defeating their enemies is due to their victor-should-be-more-tolerant philosophy.
Back then, Rose hated this aspect the most.
Otherwise, she would have long eliminated all those women who flirted with Coron... Her later conspiracies and divinity were not wasted at all.
What the elves eventually learned was also Rose’s philosophy.
Some elves learned quite decently... Such as those elf nobles on Eternity Island who pushed the Moonflower Royalty to this point.
Whether they ended up being abandoned by Coron and the Elf Deity System, their plots were certainly successful.
Some elves only learned stupidity and baseness... Like the Teraxil Elven God King and the elves under his leadership.
Even Rose wouldn’t acknowledge their clumsy tactics as something she taught.
These matters are something Hill is unwilling to contemplate.
After all, no matter how foolish the Teraxil Elven God King’s schemes were, their original Moon Elves fell for it.
To be deceived by fools, leading to complete annihilation... It sounds truly suffocating.
Fortunately, the Moon Elves now lead good lives.
They are even candidates for the Lesser God favored by the many gods of Teraxil.
Of course, the finest and strongest ones have almost entered Agleya’s Divine Kingdom, and some went to the Goddess of the Earth’s Divine Kingdom.
Afterwards, it’s the God of Time and Space.
Things are fine with William; Naven and his Guard Corps have always been capable, and what he needs are a few Lesser Gods who can relay messages between divine nations.
The God of Time and Space, however, took a lot.
After all, the Moon Elves raised by Hill are quite nimble and able, even though the God of Time and Space’s place looks like the Mechanical Realm, full of enormous machinery, with Space-Time Dragons gracefully roaming around, and space-time elements jumping about, these Moon Elves can also maneuver freely.
The only place the Moon Elves are reluctant to go is the moon.
This is something Hill cannot change.
Though they are already living new lives and their souls have been reassembled, that trace of aura is still the original.
And those past stories, even without inherited memories, it’s impossible for them not to know.
Now, they actually prefer calling themselves ’Laurel Elves’ rather than the original Moon Elves.
It sounds more like an incarnation of plants.
In short, Leonard, in the end, actually learned Hill’s natural spells and the method of making the seed pouch.
Hill’s seed pouch is quite special.
Although the optimization direction of the seeds is random, once a certain proportion of the same pulse optimization appears in the same batch of seeds, the seed pouch will record what optimization environment was simulated at the time and what conditions were set.
With this record, it is easy to conduct similar experiments in the magic garden.
Although he cannot complete most tasks in an instant like Hill.
But Leonard, who owns the fairy dragon, can also conduct a round of experiments in a short period.
His easy-going personality comes in handy at this time... Leonard never rushes.
He also never minds wasting time.
Of course, more importantly, Hill left him with a large number of evolved seeds of his own... all Toril plants.
To put it bluntly, what Hill really hated was actually that Tower of Nature.
He initially appeared in Toril as a Nature Mage.
Then, when Hill established his territory in that Death Swamp, the Tower of Nature from the Supreme Forest specifically declared that Hill was an unrelated Half-Elf to them.
They were speaking the truth, and indeed some people went to inquire at the Tower of Nature... for example, Kelben from Deepwater City, and others in Silvermoon City who had ulterior motives after seeing Hill spending money extravagantly.
So, with them denying any connection with Hill, he didn’t have much dissatisfaction... But if they wanted to deny, why use such a condescending tone?
It was as if Hill pretended to be part of their group.
Hill only learned about this matter later... After Kelben was completely finished, some things could no longer be hidden.
That guy, although very cautious of Hill, wasn’t the type to act hastily.
After all, Hill’s appearance was very high-profile, showing that he had a godly presence supporting him.
Kelben just didn’t expect that the Tower of Nature would so firmly deny Hill’s existence without knowing his true identity.
Generally, when he inquired about some relevant Magic Towers, the answer would basically be ’Some Archmage did not originate from our certain tower, but he is...’
Though the Black Staff Tower and Tower of Nature weren’t that closely connected, Kelben was not only a Half-Elf but also an Arcane Elector!
Thus, Kelben felt there would be no repercussions for acting against Hill... The Moonflower Royalty on Eternity Island were still descendants of Coron!
After learning these things, Hill immediately understood why the Tower of Nature stubbornly insisted on participating in that Path of Destiny, hoping to borrow some Fate to return home... The more Hill’s identity was revealed, the worse Kelben lost, and the more guilty the Tower of Nature felt.
So then Hill went to teach Leonard.
Although his encounter was primarily because of the Tower of Nature’s shamelessness, Leonard would eventually pay a price to leave that disgusting place... Hill could tell, he stayed in such a constantly exclusionary and disdainful place just to ensure the Sword of Aevraestar could always stand firmly on the Star Mountain Range.
But, at least when Leonard leaves, he will be able to learn a bit about the methods of cultivating and purifying plants.
Hill doesn’t know if his presence has affected Leonard’s fate, but with this little influence, he just needs to give Leonard a slight hint.
This result is even better than what Leonard originally could have learned... If Leonard continued to walk down the path of genetic manipulation of plants, the friendly relationship he had with Treants and fairy dragons would inevitably crumble.
This has nothing to do with whether Leonard himself has changed, natural creatures actually inherently reject that kind of distorted genetics.
Even if such genetic transformation is developing positively... such plants can never possess wisdom.
From the plant’s perspective, it’s understandable to reject and dislike the creator of such plants.
Hill is actually very sensitive in this regard; he would rather return more benefits to those who might be influenced by him than let himself owe anyone anything.
Especially in situations that come to his attention this way.
He’s quite satisfied with his performance in Toril... What AO said and did during their visit to his magic tower actually proved that everything Hill had done was right.
That old man truly wanted a new Earth Deity.
On the top floor, Hill and Lansendel watched the battle below without any feelings, but someone seemed a bit anxious.
"Why are they still fighting?" Josh stood on the 5th floor... this place is the Great Library for students, where Hill collected basic magic books and knowledge and literary works are located.
Thus, there is also a very comfortable reading room, and study desks where the apprentices can do their copying work.
The view, of course, is quite nice, able to see the mad combat of the Undead Tribe clearly.
From the initial calmness to the current restlessness of Josh, Russell naturally noticed everything.
He gently laid down the rune book in his hand, asked with a calm expression: "Why are you in a hurry?
Aren’t there still hundreds of thousands of people going to do missions?"
