Chương 116: Harvest Cult Tree Nana

"Don't do that, Master is still watching."

Roland refused the tree lady's offer to hold her hand, placing her small hand in front of her lower abdomen, just like a medieval maid.

Then, leading Ms. Tree, they quickly walked towards Kalil.

Caryl had finished her investigation and now knew the identity of the Tree Lady in front of her.

Roland was right; it was indeed an old acquaintance of hers.

The most shameless tree in the Harvest Cult, the most cunning pirate of the breeding guide, the worst drunkard, and a quasi-saint-level disgrace who knows nothing but farming.

Tree spirit of the Harvest Tree, Tree Nana!

How did this thing get into Little Loran's house? Are the people from the Steel Church idiots? How did it manage to get out here?

And just now, that tree spirit that I raised tried to hold Little Loran's hand, right?

This is outrageous! Fortunately, her little Lolan was very loyal and refused the tree spirit's request for interaction.

However, after we've finished questioning this nasty tree spirit, we should just find an axe and chop it down!

Caryl thought to herself, a hostile look appearing on her face.

Roland walked up to Kalil and stepped aside slightly, allowing Kalil to face the Tree Lady behind her.

"Master, this is the Tree Spirit, Ms. Tree. She has helped me a lot during this time. The basic management of the residential area and the greenhouse under construction have all benefited from Ms. Tree's strong support."

Then Roland looked at Ms. Tree and introduced Caryl.

"Miss Tree, this is the big boss of Pink Harbor, the succubi's boss, Master Kalil."

"I owe my success today mainly to my master. Without him, I probably would have been captured by Elizabeth."

After hearing Roland's introduction, the two exchanged insincere smiles.

"It is a pleasure to see the Tree of Life again, esteemed Tree Lady. I am the Great Succubus Kalil."

"I am also very happy to see survivors of the Church of Life again in this era. It is truly a blessing from Goddess!"

Roland was startled; she had never admitted to belonging to the Church of Life.

Caryl did not show any surprise, but instead pretended to be cautious.

"Ms. Tree, you seem to have told Miss Roland that you were once the Tree Spirit Lord of the Church of Life?"

"Yes, I once served as the lord of a small border town, and the people lived in peace and prosperity under my protection."

Ms. Shu, relying on her prior knowledge, spoke eloquently.

However, Kalil still pretended to be somewhat distrustful.

Seeing this, Ms. Shu spoke frankly and directly in a slightly pretentious tone.

"Miss Caryl need not doubt me. I was acquainted with Princess Elna of Floating Mountain and witnessed the crash of the floating mountain city."

"I was also forced into hibernation after the city crashed, and was accidentally awakened by Miss Roland."

Khalil smiled, a bright and cheerful smile.

"I see. I was just being too suspicious. I wonder what level of tree spirit Ms. Tree was."

Ms. Tree smiled too, her smile becoming even brighter.

"Back then, I was a superhuman who was close to a quasi-saint. Don't worry, once I recover, your lives will definitely get better. I will spare no effort to help your succubus clan."

"Really? Thank you so much! Please feel free to let us know if you need anything!"

Upon hearing this, Ms. Tree immediately turned her gaze to Roland and swallowed hard.

"Perfect, I do have a small request."

"Please speak."

"Then I'll be frank. Miss Roland has made tremendous efforts for my revival, and I admire her greatly. Why don't we keep her by my side and I teach her natural magic?"

Caryl burst out laughing, her beautiful eyes widening and her tone becoming less respectful.

"Well, you've finally revealed your true intentions. You really are after my little Loran, you shameless tree spirit!"

Ms. Shu was a little confused by the sudden change, but also felt offended.

He put on a stern face, unleashing the aura of a high-level superhuman.

"Succubus, why do you say that? I only wish to pass on the magic of nature and take Roland as my apprentice."

"Please show some respect to your seniors; personal feelings should give way to the greater good."

"Stop pretending! You imposter tree spirit!"

With a stomp of her foot, magical chains burst forth from the ground and coiled around the Tree Lady.

The Tree Lady's expression changed drastically. She conjured a pale green magic shield, but it was instantly shattered, and she was tightly bound by chains.

She looked flustered.

"Miss Kalil, what are you doing? I am a Tree of Life spirit, your senior!"

"No, why is this chain magic so powerful? This is not the kind of power a mid-level superhuman should possess..."

Caryl stared at the Tree Lady, enjoying her increasingly panicked expression, and pulled out the Cat Paw Hammer from her spatial ring.

"You're only realizing it now? You treacherous little man!"

"I'm not a villain, I'm the spirit of the Tree of Life!"

"Still pretending, Shu Nana, you book-stealing bitch!"

"Take this!"

Ms. Tree watched in horror as the cat paw hammer rapidly approached. She tried to shrink back but was bound tightly by chains and could not move. She closed her eyes and begged for mercy.

"Oh my god! Don't hit me!"

"I remember now, I remember everything! You're Elna! Hey, how come you're not dead?!"

"I was wrong! Don't hit my head!"

……

Three minutes later, Ms. Shu collapsed to the ground with a bruised and swollen face, and several large steaming bumps appeared on her head.

Caryl continued to relentlessly strike with the hammer, and Roland quickly stepped in to break up the fight, finally ending the one-sided beating.

Roland removed the hammer from Kalil's hand and looked at the tree spirit lying on the ground with a bewildered expression.

"What... what's going on? Who exactly is Miss Shu?"

In fact, when Caryl was acting, Roland noticed that there was something wrong with Ms. Tree.

Judging from Caryl's reaction, it's clear that she knows Ms. Tree, and they're probably close friends.

But is it really necessary for a close friend to beat someone up like this?

Caryl kicked the tree lady on the ground in a huff.

"This tree spirit isn't the Tree of Life at all; it's the Harvest Tree of the Harvest Cult, and the highest-grade one at that!"

"The Harvest Cult?"

Roland subconsciously began to recall the historical texts she had read.

Historical records indicate that the Cult of Harvest was once a sister cult of the Church of Life, but it disappeared long ago. Some speculate that it was because it was good at producing food, which made it a primary target for the monsters of the abyss, thus leading to its early exit.

Looking at it this way, it seems to be a pretty respectable church.

Caryl seemed to know what Roland was thinking, and pointed to the Tree Lady on the ground.

"The Harvest Church is quite good, but that doesn't include this tree spirit in front of me."

"That tree spirit is a complete scoundrel! He doesn't work hard at cultivation; he just drinks, farms, eats, and plays all day. He even pirates my painstakingly written breeding guide and distributes it everywhere!"

Ms. Shu buried her face in the soil and retorted in a muffled voice.

"You write that stuff just to show it to people, right? I'm doing this to promote your work. I've also sold a lot of it to people in the mountain city at low prices, okay?"

"You still have the nerve to argue? Why didn't you include my name in the credits?!"

Roland, however, was focused on a different aspect.

"So, Master, you also write breeding guides."

Ms. Tree sensed an opportunity to smear Caryl, so she quickly pulled her head out of the soil and said excitedly.

"Of course, back then Elna... is now called Kalil."

"Back then, she was the most perverted succubus in the surrounding area. The number of breeding manuals she sold could circle the mountain town eighty times!"

"Any female creature would go weak in the knees upon seeing her; little girls even use Elna to scare them away at night!"

Kalil's expression changed drastically, and she swung the hammer again.

"Shu Nana! Shut the hell up!"
