Chapter 56 Stay alert, everyone! ...
Shu Xin immediately flew out of the Flower Castle.
It was early morning, the sun was about to rise, and the soft light of dawn had already spread across the earth. The radiant flower fairies fluttered their light and transparent wings and flew swiftly forward through the gaps in the branches of the Tree of Life, where tender leaves were sprouting.
The massive, mountain-like shadows of the trees serenely enveloped the young flower fairy, as if the distant sky silently cradled the rising morning star.
Shu Xin was on high alert at this moment.
Most of the flower fairies, who would gradually wake up after sunrise, were still asleep. Only the members of the patrol teams who had been given acorn bread by Memeline and their families were awake.
When Shu Xin was dividing the teams, she deliberately grouped the flower fairies whose residences were nearby into the same patrol team. Looking down from this vantage point, one could see the colorful flower fairies, with small grass mats laid out in the open space in front of the triangular grass huts, quietly and happily sharing soft and sweet acorn bread with their family and friends.
A gentle breeze blew in her face, and the scene below was serene and peaceful. However, Shu Xin's heart was rising higher and higher. As she gradually approached the edge of the Tree of Life's coverage, she could clearly feel the magic in the air becoming more and more turbid.
Although the magic itself doesn't actually have a smell, it really feels like some stinky pollutant suddenly appeared, making the clean and odorless magic smell bad!
Although this indescribable stench cannot be compared to the initial stench emanating from the Land of Sin, the latter's intensity and irritation are comparable to being punched hard in the nose, making one so focused on the pain that tears and snot flow that one can't even feel the stench... The former is very faint and subtle, making the stench all the more prominent.
This was a real "magical attack"! In fact, it was a "magical attack" that only the flower fairies could sense; the flower elves didn't feel anything at all.
Hovering directly below the end of the longest branch of the Tree of Life, Shu Xin pursed her lips and swiftly cast a detection spell with her magic wand. However, within the detection spell's field of vision, there was not the slightest abnormality.
Shu Xin couldn't see anything unusual with her naked eye. Outside the area covered by the Tree of Life, the wind was still blowing wildly and chaotically. Amidst the flying dust and sand, the wheat fields planted by the flower fairy slaves were, as usual, falling over in all directions in a mess, following the wind.
Shu Xin flew out of the Tree of Life's coverage area and carefully sensed it again. The extremely abstract feeling of the magic turning foul became clearer and clearer, making her want to hold her breath. But apart from that, she still couldn't detect anything wrong.
After glancing at the long white wall formed by high-level defensive magic at the far end of her vision, Shu Xin considered the time she would need to travel back and forth, and then turned around and flew back without hesitation. She might as well use that time to gather the patrol team!
Shu Xin rushed into the Flower Castle, heading straight to the third floor, intending to wake up Nuonuo Li first and then go upstairs to wake up Peng Peng An.
While calling out, "Nonoli, wake up! Something's happened!" Shu Xin pushed open the bedroom door and was somewhat surprised to find that Nonoli's previously empty bedroom, which only had a large leaf on the floor, had changed a lot—
The room now contains an extra wooden bed, a wooden table, and a wooden chair. In addition to the extra furniture, a window has been opened in the wall opposite the bed. The soft morning light shines through the open window, spreading gently throughout the room like a light veil.
All these wooden furniture pieces are the perfect size for a flower fairy; at first glance, it looks like a tiny flower fairy sleeping on a large wooden bed—
The flower fairies' clothes were bestowed by the Tree of Life, so they don't take off their clothes when they sleep. In addition, Nono is always calm and composed, and even when he is asleep, he looks like he is keeping a straight face. At this moment, he is lying on the leaves with his clothes on, his expression serious and his posture upright, which has a comical effect of a CEO sleeping on his 200-meter-long bed.
Even though Shu Xin was tense because of the attack by the alien monsters, she couldn't help but laugh. What's worse, once she started laughing, she couldn't stop laughing for no reason.
Shu Xin could only laugh and bang on the door: "Nono! Hahahaha, wake up! Something's happened in the Land of Sin, hahahaha!"
The older flower fairy was awakened by the strange laughter. He opened his eyes, flew up, and was surprised to see the completely renovated room. But after the surprise, he was only worried about the flower fairy who couldn't stop laughing: "Princess? Are you alright?"
Shu Xin slapped her face hard, finally regaining her normal expression: "I'm fine, something happened in the Land of Sin! I can sense that monsters from the outer continent are coming! I'll go wake up Peng Peng An, and you go wake up the patrol team! Especially the medical team, everyone be on your guard!"
Monsters from another continent are coming?! Nonori became even more serious: "Yes, Your Highness!"
Shu Xin slapped herself again, turned around and flew upstairs. Now was not the time to find it funny!
The same change had occurred in Pengpeng'an's room. After waking Pengpeng'an, Shuxin was about to go downstairs with him when she turned to close the door. Seeing the fairy-like wooden furniture again, she suddenly realized something—
The Flower Castle grew from the Tree of Life, and these pieces of furniture were obviously made by the Tree of Life as well. They provided the petite flower fairies with furniture that only flower fairies could use normally. It's impossible that the Tree of Life made a mistake or carelessly got the sizes wrong. Does this mean that the Tree of Life thought that these pieces of furniture could be used normally by the flower fairies?
In other words, the flower fairies will eventually have the physique of flower fairies, which is why the Tree of Life provides furniture of this size! And this "sooner or later" is probably much sooner than she imagined!
—That's wonderful!
The patrol teams had all been activated. Shu Xin gritted her teeth and released all 30 combat squads.
However, Shu Xin did not send the patrol team too far. Instead, she arranged them outside the boundary of the Tree of Life's coverage area. Each team was responsible for guarding and patrolling a section of the boundary. The medical team was arranged inside the boundary of the Tree of Life's coverage area. One medical team was assigned to support two combat teams, and two other medical teams were left on standby as mobile forces to provide support at any time.
After becoming members of the patrol team, the flower fairies will go to the Tree of Life to ask for a blessing. After the Tree of Life blesses them, their original clothes will be transformed into a uniform exclusive to the patrol team. Unlike the patrol officers' striking deep red uniforms, the patrol team's uniforms are a refreshing light green.
After Shu Xin divided the patrol team into combat and medical teams, the combat team members were still given light green uniforms, while the medical team members received new uniforms. In the eyes of the flower fairies, the pure white robes were very neat and beautiful. Shu Xin could only remain silent after seeing them - wasn't this just a deluxe version of a doctor's white coat?
The Tree of Life really did just flip through her brain and steal her memories, didn't it?!
Currently, it seems that the Tree of Life is still retaining the essence of her memories while discarding the dross. Otherwise, Shu Xin would really worry that the Tree of Life's knowledge base would be polluted by her brain, which comes from the information age and has seen countless miscellaneous things...
Clutching her magic wand tightly, Shu Xin stood on the highest branch of the Tree of Life, maintaining her detection magic while keeping her eyes and ears open, all the while her mind wandered uncontrollably.
The sun has risen.
The moment the bright sunlight shone on the earth, the "stench" emanating from the magic in the air suddenly intensified, and Shu Xin's expression turned serious—it really was a magical beast from another continent!
