On the contrary, the latter greeted them generously,
“Hey, outsiders! You’d better not stay too long by the lake. There’s a nest of plesiosaurs here. They’re very vengeful, but they often can’t recognize humans, so they’ll attack you indiscriminately. Hurry up and leave this place.” Old Lucky took a few steps forward.
“Hello, Child of the Rainforest. May I ask which tribe you are from?”
The man smiled and said,” Hello, my name is Lumiere. I’m from the Black Banyan Tribe. But don’t worry, I’m different from them. I’m not as xenophobic as the old guys in the tribe. I’m a man who wants to become the king of the rainforest. I know how to improve. If there’s a chance, I’d like to see the outside world!”
Seeing that his attitude was not bad, Lorraine also went over and asked curiously, “What are you doing?”
‘ I’m trying to please the soul of the rainforest,” Lumiere explained patiently.” I’m asking her to help me organize an advancement ritual.”
“Advancement ritual?” Loraine was intrigued. “Can we watch? I haven’t seen the advancement process of the Rainforest Warrior.”
Lumiere smiled embarrassedly.
“That won’t do. It’s not that I’m xenophobic, but this is our tribe’s tradition. It’s not convenient for outsiders to visit. Moreover, for your safety, you’d better leave quickly! Although most adventurers who could enter the depths of the rainforest had some skills, the Dalong Lake is different. There is a completely different ecology here from the rainforest. Even the Soul of the Rainforest could not control this place, so we had to be careful!”
Old Lucky nodded, indicating that he would leave as soon as possible.
Seeing the other party’s sincere attitude, Lorraine felt embarrassed to continue pestering him.
Only Matthew had a complicated look in his eyes.
At this moment, he had already guessed that this native in front of him was the unlucky fellow who had prayed to Su Ya for the advancement ritual.
Although this matter had nothing to do with Matthew, and he was even a victim himself, he still wanted to get Lumiere’s help as much as possible.
“How many high-level monsters have you killed?” he asked.
Lumiere thought for a moment.” Twenty-one wyverns, thirteen patterned crocodiles, two jungle leopards, and some other miscellaneous prey. I’ve almost cleared the rainforest in the north of Dalong Lake. I was forced to come to Dalong Lake to hunt.”
Matthew thought to himself, ‘I knew it.’
Su Ya was not in the mood to hold an advancement ceremony for others!
Matthew felt a chill run down his spine when he thought about how the Soul of the Rainforest had been staring at him for the past few days.
He wanted to help Lumiere even more.
Matthew said, “How can you be sure that you can move the Soul of the Rainforest in this way? You’ve killed so many wild beasts, but she’s still indifferent. Don’t you think there’s something wrong?”
Lumiere was stunned for a moment, and for the first time, an unhappy expression appeared on his face.
“Do you know more about the Soul of the Rainforest than I do?
“Outsider, I grew up here. I know her better than you do!
“I am certain that killing is the only way to please the soul of the rainforest!”
‘ Maybe you’re right,” Matthew said with a smile.” But why don’t you change your mind? In the past, it was always one person holding a sacrificial ritual, right? You’re still hunting a plesiosaur, which means that the Soul of the Rainforest has not responded to you. Why don’t you let the three of us outsiders accompany you this time? Perhaps we can bring you good luck?” Lorraine also tried to persuade him,
” What he said is not without reason. Perhaps you’re just lacking a little bit of luck. Coincidentally, I’m known as the ‘Bard of Good Luck’ by the cloud elves in Cloud Edge City. With me watching, your Rainforest Soul might even respond to you.”
Old Lucky frowned. He wanted to stop the two of them from acting rashly, but when he thought of Matthew’s peculiarity, he swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
Lumiere hesitated.
Matthew struck while the iron was hot.
“Tradition is meant to be broken! If you agree to let us watch, then one day, if you leave the rainforest and can’t integrate into human civilization, you can come to Rolling Stone Town to replace me. I’ll give you some help.”
Lorraine waved his hand and said, “Hell. You can go to any city. As long as you say Lorraine’s name, you’ll have a lot of friends. Well, it might bring you a little trouble. There will be a lot of women looking for you. You just have to tell them that Lorraine has been buried in the sea.” Lumiere looked hesitantly at the two in front of him.
After a while.
He finally agreed.
“Alright, I do need a change of luck, but you can’t make any noise during the ritual. You can’t offend the soul of the rainforest. She is my goddess!” The two nodded in agreement.
Lumiere was swift and decisive. He soon brought them to the place where he was holding the sacrificial ceremony. It was a damp crypt.
Beside the crypt, there were piles of Wyverns and other creatures’ corpses. Some of the corpses had already rotted and stank.
The sacrificial ritual was quite simple.
Lumiere was soon ready.
He stabbed three wooden stakes into the plesiosaur’s head from three different angles.
Then he lay on the body of the plesiosaur and took a big bite. Then he chanted a long chant in Jango language that no one else could understand.
A few minutes later.
Lumiere spat out the scales from his mouth. His eyes were filled with disappointment.
“As expected, it still doesn’t work?!”
Matthew walked over and gently stroked the plesiosaur’s corpse.
Suddenly.
A dark red light emerged from the corpse.
Matthew immediately ran away.
Lumi?re, on the other hand, pounced on it happily!
Whoosh!
The red light entered Lumiere’s chest.
The rainforest in the distance began to tremble violently.
“I feel it, I feel it. The soul of the rainforest has given me a response!”
He knelt on the ground with tears in his eyes.
“I knew my devotion would move my goddess!
“I’m going to hunt that Dinosaur now. After killing it, I’ll become the true king
of the rainforest!”
In addition to joy.
From the corner of his eye, Lumiere saw Matthew fleeing.
He couldn’t help but shout, “Hey, foreigner, I still don’t know your name!”
“Matthew, my name is Matthew! Remember, Matthew of Rolling Stone Town!”
His voice came through the thick leaves of the rainforest.
Lumiere repeated the name in his mind.
Then, he stood up with a determined look in his eyes.
He roared and ran in the direction of the earthquake.
“I’ll go take a look at the outside world after I conquer the rainforest! “Tremble, Dinosauruses, the king of the rainforest is here!” Even if he ran far away in one breath.
Matthew and the other two also heard Lumiere’s long howl.
“The king of the rainforest, huh?”
Lorraine didn’t seem to like this title. “There’s still a hint of barbarism in it.” Matthew revealed an appreciative smile.
“I quite like him. “After all, who doesn’t like a confident man?”
Two days later.
The group finally left the rainforest.
The lush scenery along the way was left behind by them.
The sea breeze with a salty smell greeted them.
On the boundless sea, small islands were faintly discernible.
The waves crashed against the golden beach. Shells, coconuts, fish and shrimp could be seen everywhere.
Matthew bathed in the sea breeze along the coast, and a strange resonance surged in his heart.
