Chapter 952: Chapter 467: Forbidden Power
He decided to be a ruthless relay that doesn’t think about anything.
Not thinking—that’s my strategy!
"My Lady! There’s news from Herbert’s side! He said... huh?"
The Ice and Snow Goddess was just about to speak when she suddenly sensed something off. She sniffed a little and asked doubtfully, "My Lady, are you unhappy right now?"
She unexpectedly found that the Forest Goddess, who was always gently smiling, now had her brows faintly knotted.
"What’s wrong? What happened?"
The Forest Goddess hadn’t expected to be suddenly shown concern. She shook her head in surprise and chuckled softly, "It’s nothing, hehe, thank you for your concern."
She didn’t say more and steered the topic, asking, "You came to find me, is there something you need? Right, you just said there was a response from Herbert?"
Huh? Oh!
The Ice and Snow Goddess didn’t think too much and continued her task, relaying Herbert’s thoughts.
"My Lady! He said you all need to show him some real sincerity!"
Fulingya: ?
"He also said he wants resources, money, and population! Mm, yeah, that’s it."
Fulingya: ??
"He also said... uh, that you all should properly express your goodwill!"
After the Ice and Snow Goddess finished speaking, she seriously thought for a moment, confirmed that she hadn’t missed anything, listed all of Herbert’s demands, then lifted her head and huffed, "Mm, that’s pretty much it!"
Fulingya: ???
The Forest Goddess was full of question marks at this moment.
No, what the hell is all this?
"He really said that to you?"
Because the other side’s attitude was too outrageous, Fulingya didn’t even get angry at first, feeling there had to be some kind of misunderstanding here.
Even if Herbert is an Apostle of the Sun, his temper wouldn’t be exactly the same as His, right?
No, even Alberta wouldn’t be this arrogant!
The way he said this... even I want to hit him.
"Yes!"
The Ice and Snow Goddess didn’t feel that there was anything wrong with how she relayed things. She asserted, "That guy also said you’ll definitely agree, that you’ll definitely give him a reasonable explanation... My Lady, why is that?"
Explanation?
Fulingya caught a keyword and immediately narrowed her eyes.
What explanation?
Could it be he’s noticed my intention?
But how is that possible!?
Fulingya felt a long-anticipated possibility. She bent down, grabbed the little kitten and lifted her up, staring at her seriously as she said, "Hecayas, think carefully again. Are you sure you didn’t leave anything out?"
Eh?
The little ice-and-snow kitten who had been picked up blinked, tried hard to recall, then let out an oh and nodded:
"Oh, right! Herbert also said that regarding the Beast Ear Clan, he doesn’t need us to interfere anymore. He’s already contacted them and will help them solve their troubles himself."
They’re already in contact!!?
Light flashed in Fulingya’s eyes. She hurriedly pressed on, "Forget it, stop talking for now. Tell me the whole conversation between you two, word for word, don’t change a single word!"
The little kitten was startled, shrank her head back, and muttered discontentedly, "Uh, o-okay, don’t be so worked up..."
"At the time, I went to find him and saw—oh! No, he said this part can’t be told to anyone, or he’ll drag me down with him..."
Fulingya: ?
"Ahem! Anyway, when I later found him, he said he’d just been forcibly rewarded by the Lady of the Moon..."
Fulingya: ???
...
A moment later, Fulingya finally understood the full picture and what Herbert was trying to convey to her.
She understood that he had already noticed the chaos within the Natural Pantheon, had expressed that he didn’t mind being the blade, but needed her side to name their price honestly.
And then—Fulingya almost wanted to strangle this little kitten who’d relayed the message all wrong!
Damn it!
Who told you to pass it on like that!!?
"You! You really are... sigh, forget it! I’ll settle accounts with you later!"
Fulingya suppressed her anger and quickly instructed the little kitten, "Hurry back to Herbert and tell him this..."
"The Forest Goddess Fulingya has fully accepted your terms."
"And She is willing to provide even more additional assistance!"
"Remember! Don’t change a single word!!!"
...
...
The Beast Ear Clan camp.
After Herbert accepted the submission of the Ancestor Spirit Kaimora, he didn’t dawdle any longer and began preparing to transfer these Beastmen to Elda.
The specific method was still the same old one: have them dig out a water pit, prepare a water mirror, then rely on Miss Mirror Demon’s mirror teleportation, make a transfer within the Mirror Space, and send them over to Elda.
However, just as the water pit had been dug, the water surface suddenly rippled with layer after layer of waves.
Thump!
Thump!!
Thump!!!
The sound was like... some gigantic beast in the distance was charging madly in their direction!
Just as the Beastmen were panicking, they noticed the smoke and dust closing in.
It was a terrifying, twisted, and shriveled Tree Man over a hundred meters tall, its whole body wrapped in Crimson Thorn vines!
Unlike ordinary Tree Men, this bizarre one was not formed from a single giant tree, but from countless branches twisted and wound together.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The Tree Man, radiating a frightening Epic aura, had a voice like thunder. Its frenzied roar echoed through the Forgotten Forest under the night.
"Kill you all!!!"
"Revenge!"
"This is Nature’s roar of vengeance!!!"
It roared and charged toward the Beast Ear Clan’s camp with berserk momentum—but was blocked halfway by a rapidly growing high wall of flesh and blood.
"Didn’t I already say this before?"
Svanni stood shoulder to shoulder with two other Monster Girls, frowning as she looked at the Withered whose appearance had changed drastically, and spoke coldly.
"Tonight, you cannot pass here."
"Now... get back where you came from."
