The process of meeting the ancient tree-man king is much simpler than imagined.

There are no security checks like those in the TV series when meeting the emperor, nor are there brainless villains popping up to slap you in the face.

The whole process is the same as when Shuren described his character.

Longing for peace and no struggle with the world.

As Zhu Ling's words fell softly, Zhu Xia nodded respectfully, first stepped forward and opened the door, and then waved his hand.

"Dear guests, please come in!"

With Sun Di taking the lead, the group of five people immediately stepped into the small building without stopping.

Adhering to the purely natural decoration, the exterior of the building looks as gentle as a water town in the south of the Yangtze River in China.

But once inside, it turns into an exhibition garden of various plants.

Various canes in full bloom with beautiful flowers are wrapped around the stress pillars that stabilize the house and climb up until they reach the top of the building, where they naturally hang down, spreading the fragrance of flowers.

"Welcome, distinguished guests from heaven!"

As the previous words sounded again, all the plants seemed to be given life and began to move slowly.

It only took three to five seconds to reveal the obscured scene.

In a study room similar to an office, behind a simple desk sat a tree man who looked very handsome.

Its branches are covered with fine buds, and its main trunk is inlaid with dazzling green mist gems.

Even though each of its branches hangs down to the ground, it cannot block the unique beauty it reveals.

The most eye-catching thing is that on the top of his head, there is a crown made of golden plants, which blooms with little lights as he breathes.

This is a very elegant and tasteful tree man.

The moment he saw Zhu Ling, Sumo came to this conclusion unconsciously.

Different from the towering trees seen in the holographic letters, although Zhu Ling is now countless times smaller, his temperament is still well preserved.

Any creature that sees him will unconsciously feel a sense of closeness to him.

"Dear ancient tree people lord Zhu Ling, hello, I am Sun Di, a subordinate of the human lord Sumo from heaven."

"Thank you for taking the time to meet me!"

Taking two steps forward, Sun Di stretched out his right hand and held the branch tightly.

It was exactly the same as what Sumo had planned in his plan. Even if he was an ordinary human being, Zhu Ling did not show any contempt, but instead gave him extremely high standards of reception.

After just a few polite words, the two of them entered into a more intimate conversation.

After listening to the conversation between the two for a while and realizing that Sun Di was fully capable of handling Zhu Ling's various questions, Su Mo was completely relieved and began to divert his attention to call out the system.

Follow the rules that you have figured out before.

For items with ownership rights, or creatures whose life levels have not reached a certain level, the system will not provide corresponding attribute interfaces.

But this is not absolute.

With the idea of ​​giving it a try, Sumo voted directly for Zhu Ling, the king of tree people, who was sitting behind his desk and talking loudly for the first appraisal.

Wow!

Green light automatically derived from the body, spread crazily through the floor covered with plants to Zhu Ling's feet, and then wrapped around his body in a circle before returning.

"Huh? Is there a show?"

Seeing that the performance of the silk thread was completely different from when it returned without success, Somo took a long, deep breath and quickly suppressed the joy in his heart.

Sure enough, the next second, as the thread returned, a detailed attribute panel was revealed.

[The ancient king of tree people-Zhu Ling (Lord)]

[Description]: This is a strange creature from the plant planet numbered B-31. Compared with ordinary plants, the trunk of this strange creature has blood similar to that of normal creatures, so that they have the power to think.

, and the ability to leave the soil and move freely on the ground

【Age】:39 years

[Tree height]: reduced form: 1.82 meters; normal form: 19 meters; peak form: 28 meters;

[Intelligence level]: 119 (analogous to human IQ)

[Companion Plant]: Golden Thread Green (a plant with a simple IQ that can be freely woven into various forms such as armor, weapons, etc. during battle)

【ability】:

Lord Wisdom (After becoming the lord of the tree people, your IQ will naturally increase by 10 points)

Plant affinity (because of the unique biological characteristics, when in contact with other organisms, there is a high probability of gaining their favor)

Vitality (after taking root in the land, the tree will absorb the fertility of the land and recover from all losses)

【weakness】:

Fire (like ordinary plants, tree people also have a natural fear of fire. Once caught by flames, their strength will be reduced by more than 50%)

Cold (when the temperature is below minus 30 degrees, the tree man must take root in the ground to keep the blood flowing, otherwise he will freeze his blood and die of supercooling)

Physical attack (blood flows in the trunk of the tree people, giving them extraordinary magic power, but this is also the source of their weakness. Once their trunk is severely damaged, it is very likely to cause death due to massive bleeding)

[Evaluation]: Wisdom is a double-edged sword. While it brings creativity, it also takes away the power of the physical body!

The panel of Zhu Ling, the king of tree people, is not luxurious. Compared with the gods detected before, it is more than a little inferior.

Moreover, after noticing a few key data, Sumo felt relieved.

The more than 300-meter-tall tree man in the holographic projection was indeed a fake, created by Zhu Ling through unknown means in order to fool and frighten his ally.

And now, although his peak height is still nearly thirty meters, every move he makes is as terrifying as a humanoid Gundam.

But these three weaknesses severely restricted his performance, so much so that the combat effectiveness of the tree man was weakened by nearly 70% out of thin air!

"No wonder these tree people are often more than ten meters tall and look amazing in combat, but they never take the initiative to attack. Instead, they form alliances against others under the slogan of peace."

"If there is really going to be a collision at this stage, even if they can win the war, I'm afraid some of them won't survive the aftermath!"

“Not a good deal at all!”

Coming to this conclusion, Somo also had some clues as to why the tree people invited humans to enter the territory and develop together.

To put it bluntly, Shuren’s current shortcomings are not irreparable.

For example, once these towering trees are put on heavy armor to protect the weak points of the body, it will basically be difficult to break through the defense before the attack power reaches a certain level.

Another example is the fear of fire. If you can carry a high-power fire extinguisher with you, you can basically greatly reduce the damage caused by flames.

Even if plant mutations can be artificially induced and more auxiliary companion plants are born, the strength of the tree people will also undergo rapid changes.

"Wait, if that's the case."

After closing Zhu Ling's attribute panel, Sumo refocused his attention and began to listen to the conversation behind the desk.

After getting over the initial unfamiliarity, each person and one tree lost their previous politeness and began to discuss specific directions.

However, although Zhu Ling's IQ is 119, reaching the starting line of human academic masters, this does not mean that his level of intelligence is truly as good as that of a human being.

Sun Di was just a Tai Chi pusher who couldn't splash water, so he was already feeling a little anxious.

"Mr. Sun, you have also seen our sincerity in cooperating with Heavenly Court. For you humans, the Guzao Shu Human Race has great sincerity."

"After Zhu Chuan came back last time, we have learned clearly how helpful the fairy fruit is to the tree people. We believe that once a long-term cooperative trade is established, the tree people will become the eternal allies of heaven and mankind."

"Since Lord Soma trusts you to come here, don't refuse the trade agreement between us. What do you think?"

Hearing Sun Di push back on the specific content of the trade again, he turned the topic to the impact of cooperation between the two parties on the surrounding situation.

Zhu Ling's heart was so hot that he directly stated his urgent needs straight to the point.

At this time, Sun Di couldn't refuse anymore, so he had to continue: "I wonder what kind of items Lord Zhuling wants to exchange for the fairy fruit?"

"Ianya!"

"For each fairy fruit, we can provide rice leaves for two hundred people for a day!"

"Or you can use other rare plant resources in the territory of the tree people. If you can sign the agreement on behalf of Lord Somo, we will give you 10,000 rice leaves as a personal gift, as well as several kinds of fruits that can improve your physical fitness!

"

It seems that he knows the twists and turns of human beings in negotiations. Zhu Ling's words are straightforward and his handwriting is amazing!

Not to mention that one fairy fruit can be exchanged for rice leaves for 200 people.

Just the rice leaves that can last a person for 27 years and the rebates on several rare fruits are enough to make people excited.

"What a big deal!"

"Lord Zhuling, this is such a generous act!"

Seeing Zhu Ling throw out his chips, Sun Di was in a dilemma. Su Mo immediately smiled freely and walked out of the team.

"Oh? Who is this?"

"I am the supervising adjutant of this mission team. Lord Zhuling can call me, Hou Liangping."
