Chapter 903: Fountain? More like faucet!

”Mother of Life, I beseech thee. In this holy place filled with your grace and mercy, fill up the earth with your grace and protection. This humble servant is asking you to bless this land with the waters of life.” Adrian chanted as he could feel that the mana in the surroundings and even from the Tree of Life and Death gathering towards the magic circle.

Not only mana was gathered from the surroundings but also Adrianʼs mana as well. As soon as Adrianʼs mana was no more, his health started to deteriorate to the point that he died. He could not believe what happened as a spell killed him on the spot.

The moment he revived, Adrian looked at the Tree of Life and Death for an explanation, but it was oddly quiet. Adrian stared at the Tree of Life and Death with a mor criticizing look until it completely spilled. It seems that someone needed to sacrifice their life in order to properly fix the Fountain of Life.

[You have revived.]

[Your Life energy has been drained and will take time to come back.]

”Why did my Life energy storage become close to zero!?” Adrian shouted as he asked the Tree of Life and Death about the phenomenon.

”It was used in order to revive the fountain. Look! It has now started to sprout water.” The Tree of Life and Death stated as it pointed out the small fountain spewing water in its vicinity.

”Fountain? That is like a faucet! I lost a lot of life energy just to create that?” Adrian stated as he was indeed furious because he was tricked by a tree.

”You are too harsh. It has yet to fully mature as it is still gaining mana from the surroundings. It will at least take a year for you to enjoy the full benefits. If you can wait a year, then you can dip in the Fountain of Life and recover the lost Life energy accumulated in your body.” The Tree of Life and Death stated.

”You owe me! Big Time!” Adrian stated as he stormed out of the place. He teleported away as he needed to see records about sacred trees as he needed something to replenish the Life energy stolen from him. This was the first time that he did not expect that the consequences were severe to the point that he lost a lot of energy.

In fact, it was not originally designed this way, but Adrian with a Genesis Dragon is already too dangerous when it comes to balance. He was also closing the threshold of the necessary life energy as well which is why they needed to depower him a little. If he became an Arch Demon after acquiring a Genesis Dragon, then he will steam roll over the current dungeons at this rate.

”I expected that something will be taken but I did not expect that my Life energy will reach zero. I expected it but I at least fixed the Fountain of Life.” Adrian stated as he recalled the description of the Fountain of Life.

”It is an investment. It will pose a great debt at first, but I will reap the rewards in the future.” Adrian thought as he hypnotized himself so that he will not cry from the sudden setback of increasing his persona.

======

Adrian knew that having lingering thoughts on the Fountain of Life and what he lost is not good. He then focused on another thing that is needed. He needed to make sure that Kanlaon at least reaches level 150 to get experience in the high-level dungeons.

He used Polymorph and teleported again somewhere a lot of beginner monsters are located. Adrian chose a village in the outskirts of a kingdom that has monsters in the level range of 15 to 20. He did not think much of it at first and started to enter when he suddenly got stopped by the guards.

”Are you a citizen of this country? Present your identification, Adventurer.” One of the guards stated which somewhat shocked Adrian.

”I totally forgot that most of the central continent is no longer a homogenous country like it used to.” Adrian thought as he remembered that a great war for territory happened. Even some top guilds are now owners of castles when they conquered the territory.

In the end, the demigods that were still alive needed to stop the war. The central continent is now at a peace period because the demigods deemed that they would lay waste on countries that wanted war. The population of people already decreased when the dark god descended but it even became small due to the war.

Adrian presented his adventurer identification card and was given permission to enter the village. The village name is Quaint Rock Village and is said to be a small village near mountains. Their main source of money is the river where gold rocks would sometimes be carried by water from the mountains.

”It seems a player is the lord of this village, and he seems to be affiliated with a small guild. I guess times really has changed that even small guilds can become village lords.” Adrian thought as he scanned the area.

The NPCs and new players seem to have a great atmosphere in this village. This means that the guild managing it is at least keeping the well being of the citizens. There have been reports of some guilds abusing their citizens which in turn made them fled. In the end, they lost a lot of money since running a territory is not easy.

Adrian headed for the grasslands and saw many newbie players gathered around. There were some players who were recruiting in the village, but he did not want to be in a party since Kanlaon is indeed an eye-catching monster.

Adrian went deeper into the forest in order find monsters at the level of 20 since Kanlaon could already take them on despite the large level difference. The monsters alone are terrified of Kanlaon just being in his presence. Since Adrian must let Kanlaon attack the monsters in order to gain experience, he refrained from attacking and instead used debuffs to hinder monsters.

After a few moments, a loud roar could be heard from the scenter of the forest. Sounds of magic and steel clashing could be heard from the location. Adrian could only hear it clearly because he borrowed Siriusʼ senses.

”Greater Summon: Sirius!” Adrian chanted as a large, majestic wolf came out of the magic circle.

”Investigate the disturbance for me.” Adrian commanded as Sirius suddenly vanished.

After a few seconds, Sirius already sent a signal that he found the source of the disturbance. It seems that two groups are fighting over a field boss that spawned. The field boss was a large rabbit that is about three meters in height and is now injured critically.

”It seems that they are kill stealing the field boss. It is a natural occurrence in games, so it is better to ignore them.” Adrian thought as he suddenly heard the name of the rival group.

”They are from the Shark Tooth Guild!” A person from the other group stated.

”Shark Tooth Guild. I heard of them as they are infamous even back then. They are about medium size now and that they own a former territory of Viscount. They also tax the dungeons in the regions they are controlling.

To think that players can now tax people for dungeon entry is absolutely insane, but I guess other guilds are also employing it as well. No wonder the traffic in my territory is a lot because they are the ones holding onto the territories. Most importantly, I heard that Kabrakan was bullied by them when he was a newbie.” Adrian thought as he suddenly thought of the things that he could do.

=====

”You bastards from the Shark Tooth Guild! This is our guildʼs territory! Get out!” One of the opposing people shouted.

”Ho! This Field Boss is ours now. Compared to your Quaint Leaf Guild, you do not need the Field Boss anyways. It will be more important in our hands.” The leader of the group from the Shark Tooth Guild stated with a smug look in his face.

”Everyone! Get ready! We earned the kill for that field boss!” One of the opposing side stated but his team members were a bit reluctant to move.
