Chapter 723: Beast God Entered the BattleField (1)

Elysia gazed at a valley from the top of a hill. She could see an army of many strong beast warriors camped nearby as if they were ready for a big battle. "That sealed area will collapse soon? Then..."

Elysia put her hand on a large rock to leave her marker there. "Yep, we'll be here in a moment. Let's go to the central region and meet the Beast God."

Oceanid looked at his map while determining their direction and position. "Hm, we are in the southern region now. So, we need to head in that direction, hmm... Very well, board the ship as we shall sail soon."

"Hehe, we'll teleport here later. Go across a great distance in the blink of an eye. You haven't had that kind of experience, have you?" Sylvia whispered from beside Lynn.

"Hm, I understand the concept of teleportation. However, doesn't such a technique belong to divine-class magic?" Lynn asked in wonder. She glanced at Elysia once more. A mortal human girl, but could use divine-class magic?

"No, teleportation magic is not divine magic. A mortal can also use instant place-shifting techniques, depending on their understanding of space law. Elysia is a unique and special entity with unlimited capabilities. That's also why her master often invites her to engage in various high-class magic, even divine-class magic." Rhea helped Elysia concoct a plausible excuse to explain Elysia's capabilities.

"En, Ely is a Goddess candidate. She is beyond logic and common sense. Sometimes I feel like Ely is a Goddess disguised as an ordinary girl with disguised powers to trick everyone into thinking she is weak and easy to bully." Evelyn put her hand to her cheek.

"Yeah, anyone who thinks like that will make a fatal mistake, especially anyone with bad intentions." Sylvia grinned mysteriously.

"Excuse me, girls. We shall depart for the sacred mountains north of Brisline Woodland now." Oceanid facepalmed and heaved a sigh.

"Well then." Lifa looked at the surrounding trees and boarded the Gravy Ark.

After everyone boarded, the Gravy Ark shot up to the north at high speed. It was as if they broke away from the world's limitations to travel at speeds that exceeded even ten times the speed of sound without any problems.

"Uhm, we've been traveling on this Gravy Ark for a long time. However, there's one thing I've been wondering all along." Ella raised her hand.

"And what is it, Ella?" Elysia and the girls paid their attention to the questioner.

"This Gravy Ark has a maximum speed. It will damage its magic circuit quickly if we push this magic device to its full capacity for a long time. However, we are clearly already traveling far from its maximum speed. Is this still a Gravy Ark?" Ella scratched her head in confusion.

"That depends on who pilots this thing. Since I'm a fabulous person, achieving such a thing is easy. Just give me a few minutes, and we'll arrive at our destination." Oceanid pointed at himself proudly.

"I see..." Ella nodded in understanding. Apparently, the Gravy Ark wasn't working as it should, but it was all thanks to Sea God's magic.

Vanessa looked left and right. She then rested her head on her master's lap.

"Oh my..." Elysia didn't know why Vanessa suddenly acted spoiled when they almost arrived at Brisline Woodland. She didn't say anything and just gave her a head pat.

'Ely, our Vann just doesn't want to think any mixed thoughts about her homeland. Would you like to give her a head-grip massage? I heard some pets like to get pampered, especially the females.' Elena came up with a brilliant fad idea.

'Head-grip massage? Like this?' Elysia spread her fingers and held Vanessa's head with one hand. She then kneaded Vanessa's head up and down gently.

"Oh, oohh~" Vanessa opened her mouth. She rolled her eyes up with a slightly exaggerated facial expression but soon closed her eyes in comfort. She really enjoyed it.

"Hmm?" Yuuki was curious about what had happened. Yet, she suddenly widened her eyes in surprise at the sight of Vanessa's blissful face. She already knew about it. Elysia's hand massage was indeed on the god-tier level!

"Oh my... All right, not now." Elysia retracted her hand.

"Eh? Please give me more, master~" Vanessa grabbed her master's hand and put it on her head again.

"Okay, but just head pats. The previous one is a bit unsafe at this time and place." Elysia again gave Vanessa some head pats.

"Mm~" Vanessa didn't mind that and just smiled blissfully.

She added a new top favorite priority in her mind. Besides cuddles, snuggles, and foodies, her next favorite thing was head massage... It was such a nice touch, more comfortable than body caress. Of course, only from her beloved master.

"How comfortable..." Yuuki spoke in a mosquito-like voice. She also wants to be showered with such attention and affection. Therefore, she should grab the opportunity later.

A few minutes later, the Gravy Ark's speed slowed as they were already close to their destination. Below them was a dense forest with giant trees that towered even tens of meters high.

"Beast Continent is predominately filled with forests with giant trees. Are all the trees down there Spirit Trees?" Evelyn peered down in amazement.

"We should already be in Beast Continent's capital forest city. The beasts here have a large body size. The environment they live in is naturally the same." Sylvia unrolled her map scroll.

"Those trees are big and lush. Do they already have their avatar bodies and are roaming around?" Yuuki also wondered. She began to worry because she would definitely get lost if she went out alone in that super vast forest, not to mention with such colossal trees.

"Hundreds of them have already reached Spirit-level, but only a few are at Saint-level. They are peace-loving and soft-hearted trees. My only hope is for forests like this to be preserved." Lifa conveyed an implied message in her gentle answer.

"I don't mean to spoil your impression of plants and trees. But, some types of trees and plants are simply savage and ruthless. They prey on other living things regardless of form, whether animals, plants, or humans. Some of them also have the illusion ability to deceive their prey. Not all plants are good-hearted, my friend. I've seen the worst." Oceanid looked up slightly and shook his head.

"..." Lifa chose not to respond to that statement.

"The carnivorous tree with illusionary abilities? I know a forest of death on the Devil Continent, but is there anything worse than that?" Sylvia entered the conversation with curiosity.

"The forest of death on the Devil Continent, the Curious Grave Woodland on the Elven Continent, the Hypnotic Wessard Forest on the Beast Continent, and the worst is the Forbidden Ash Wood on the Fairy Continent. Avoid those places for your safety because they are the mysterious, forbidden forests." Oceanid advised these girls about the cruelty of the forest laws there.

"Wow, there are quite a few... If those forests are so threatening and dangerous, why are they still around today? Nobody wants to wipe those forests off the map?" Sylvia was surprised but also somewhat impressed.

"Unless a divine being does it, that won't happen. However, why do we need to do it? All the plants in the forbidden forest are just minding their own business in their territory without disturbing other places." Lifa shook her head.

"Hmm, it's scary to know the predators are the trees. We are the prey in such a place, huh..." Elysia put her hand on her chin, but she accidentally glanced at Nell.

"Why are you looking at me, Ely? Did you think that because of my size, I would be easy prey?" Nell smiled in amusement.

"No, but you might be mistaken for a delicious snack by that predatory tree. I wonder about the Forbidden Ash Wood and the fairies' impression of that place. I'm sure that place has a horrific story and terrifying history." Sylvia interrupted bluntly and gazed far away towards the east.

"All right, save that story for another chance. We have arrived at the sacred mountains, where the Beast God and his big family reside." Oceanid interrupted the conversation and made the Gravy Ark land near a spiral den.

A giant cave entrance was wide open on the hill. Several fire lions were immediately alerted by the arrival of a group of foreign entities that suddenly came from the sky openly.

"You overstep your mortal boundary in our sacred mountains, intruders! State your reason or, bleurgh!" One of the fierce fire lions roared with rage but was suddenly doused by a small flood.

The fire that enveloped his body was instantly extinguished, and he looked like a pathetic lion.

The same thing fell on the other fire lions, without exception.

"I am the Sea God. I am doing you a little favor by stimulating your muscle memory if you forget my existence. We have come to meet your patriarch." Oceanid swung his hand left and right.

A large water wave swept the fire lions aside and extinguished their recently rekindled fire.

"Blurgh, Sea, you are the Sea God!?" A young fire lion stared in shock. He knew about the event when this God came to visit several days ago, but it was the unpleasant one to remember.

Oceanid and his group entered the cave without anyone blocking their path. The surrounding fire lions looked at each other in bewilderment, but they decided not to do anything. That was probably a problem between the Sea Gods and their patriarch. There was nothing they needed to do to interfere, just like in the previous event.
