Chapter 428: Chapter 235: Wood of Life (Part 2)

Diana was stunned for a moment, then lowered her head in distress.

“What’s wrong?”

Both Zoe and Li Ang were a bit surprised.

The Immortal Spirit Maiden hummed softly, and Zoe looked at Li Ang: “She said she can’t resonate with me.”

“Why?” Li Ang asked.

Since just now, he had felt that Diana’s condition was somewhat different from the other Star Souls.

Diana does not speak the Nebis Universal Language, or rather, she can’t speak like the human race, but that’s actually okay, because the manifestations of Star Souls currently seem to vary.

The real distinction she conveys is in her behavior.

Her power is weak, her personality timid, unlike the previous two who gave guidance, she even seems to be fearing something. As for personality, she’s not like a predecessor, more like a little girl even younger than the four girls present. She gets along well with Meimei, they seem more like peers.

Diana appears to understand what Zoe is saying.

She hummed again, conveying information to Zoe.

“She said it’s not that she doesn’t want to, but she can’t. She’s afraid of passing ’bad things’ onto me.”

“Bad things?”

Li Ang was taken aback.

What bad things could be passed along from the Light of the Star Soul? Is that the root cause of her appearing so weak?

Diana suddenly looked sorrowful, tears streaming down her face, coupled with her delicate beauty, she was indeed a sympathetic sight.

The five people around her all felt a sudden desire to comfort her, but she had already merged into Nature ahead of them. A branch suddenly grew at her feet, flowers and leaves quickly extended, wrapping her within, and then the natural bouquet dispersed in place, and the maiden’s figure disappeared.

“Did she, did she run away?”

Zoe was momentarily caught off guard.

No one had expected the Star Soul’s mind to be somewhat timid.

“Can’t help it, we’ll see her again later, let’s focus on our task first.”

Li Ang glanced at the Heaven-Supporting Giant Tree in the middle of the lake, he had momentarily suspected the tree was Diana’s true form, but it didn’t quite seem like it.

No matter what, having a Star Soul’s true form being freely gnawed by a Tier Six Demon is too strange.

And unlike the two who specifically manifest as Frost Heaven Giant Wolf and Thunderstorm Feathered Serpent, she seems to not have a fixed Super Demon form.

Of course, this was just Li Ang’s speculation, it might be that Diana hasn’t revealed it yet.

Zoe nodded at him, holding the blessed Shipbuilding Treasure Wood: “Diana said these woods are enough for us to build a ship, because before completely separating them, they can regenerate.”

Meaning, as long as the felled trees aren’t completely divided into large sections to build parts like Dragon Bones, they can be continuously used? This sounds too magical, but if it was done by a Star Soul, it makes sense.

Li Ang had mulled over what kind of power birthed the Star Souls several times.

He tore open the Dimensional Rift, controlled clouds to lift the giant tree, with the help of Alulu and Dorothy who released the Demon-Born Flower, he sent them one by one into the rift.

The rift closed, he brushed off the dirt and moss he’d gotten on his hand from his recent busy work, sighing in relief.

“Next, we just need to transport them to the cargo ship at the shipping company.”

“I have a question.” Dorothy said.

“Go ahead.”

“Since you can use the rift to store the wood, why don’t you take it to the City of the Ship’s Rudder yourself, and instead ship it?”

Li Ang leaned on the Magic Staff, suddenly froze.

“Hey? Hey? Great Sky Knight, our leader, did you forget about this part?”

The Half Elf waved a hand in front of his eyes.

“Uh, there is a reason for this, I’ll explain later.”

Li Ang came back to his senses, waved his hand pointing in the direction of their return: “Let’s go, let’s go, I won’t make you train when we get back, but we should set up camp early, there are no inns around here.”

Using Magic Power, he created air masses, dragging the young girls along for flight.

The sudden lift-off caused a shout of surprise, but it quickly turned into laughter.

The lake’s surface covered in roots, and the road they came by swiftly passed by, the originally challenging path, in pure observation becomes a spectacle of a watery forest, adding a bit more joy.

Zoe grabbed the cloud mass, transformed herself into the Celestial Maiden Stance, borrowing Li Ang’s flight control power for rapid flight, she was having a blast.

The other three couldn’t do that, only watching her show off.

After the tense take-off, Dorothy changed her sitting position, or rather lying position, she discovered the air masses were malleable, even freer than quilts or cushions, she immediately took an interest.

The Half Elf arranged a comfortable air mass half-lying shape for herself, moved up and down against it, laughing: “This is great, no wonder you don’t mind not sleeping in tents.”

She swayed side to side, suddenly thought of something, leaned closer and whispered: “Would the experience on this be different?”

“Haven’t really tried it yet, wait, you can’t try that either.”

Without the Material Magic Scripture and Orichalcum before, Li Ang never considered the scenario described by this half-professor full of rubbish.

Just like in this aspect, he’s now also quite unaccustomed.

“Never used such good Treasure Artifacts before, so, you forgot you could use rifts to transport lumber for this reason too?” Dorothy brought up the topic again.

She intentionally provoked him, Li Ang glanced at her: “I forgot part of it, but there’s a reason for forgetting as well.”

Li Ang continued, the ordering habit in the City of the Ship’s Rudder is to bring the lumber, and then at the dock start discussing prices and blueprints with various shipyards, and finally have them delivered to the shipyard by the city’s specialized transportation rail.

Tier Nine Powerhouses are rare, who would go deliver shipbuilding raw materials for you?

Li Ang had repeatedly undertaken lumber collection commissions, even some clients paid the rewards at the dock, due to these experiences, he formed a habitual mindset.
