Chapter 1862 Experiment 117 <TOC> Chapter 1864 Drifting Ruin

To improve the mood of Tree Spirit, Angel could only think of the issue with the venue for the tea party.
“This isn’t the case,” Tree Spirit said, sighing and shaking its head, “Liana still insists on having me carve out a space inside the Eternal Tree and even wants a passage connected to the Life Pool for extracting fragrances.” However, Tree Spirit quickly changed the topic: “But Nian Yesevei is very nice and didn’t dance to Liana’s tune.”
When mentioning Nian Yesevei, Tree Spirit’s eyes sparkled.
Angel was almost certain that Tree Spirit’s good mood was related to Nian Yesevei.
“At first, I thought Nian Yesevei would persuade me to carve out space for the tea party, just like Liana did, since it was Liana who invited her over,” Tree Spirit said with a smile. “But Nian Yesevei didn’t do that.”
“What did she say?” Angel asked curiously.
“She said that carving out space for the tea party is indeed troublesome and suggested that Liana shouldn’t be so fixated on it.”
Angel: “And then?”
“Liana didn’t agree, and Nian Yesevei proposed that we both take a step back.”
Upon hearing this, Angel felt something odd. Tree Spirit had never moved forward in the first place, which meant staying in place. If they could step back from there, wouldn’t it still mean Liana had moved forward?
Tree Spirit continued: “Nian Yesevei gave a very reasonable suggestion. She proposed that Liana and I look for a suitable place for the tea party, and if we really couldn’t find one, then we could carve out the space later.”
Angel: “…And then?”
Tree Spirit said: ‘Liana agreed.'”
Then, that’s it.
Angel: “…” Is that the reason you’re in a good mood?
Anyone with eyes can see that Nian Yesevei did nothing at all. Liana certainly wouldn’t go looking elsewhere to host a tea party. Even if Tree Spirit goes looking and finds a nice place, Liana only has to say “not suitable,” and it would still be a futile effort.
It seems like Nian Yesevei is considering both sides, but she’s actually just expanding her rhetoric. However, the available options remain the same, while also passing the decision-making to Liana.
In the end, Tree Spirit will be the one to compromise, not Liana, who is determined to create her own space.
Angel, looking at Tree Spirit still indulged in memories and smiling, sighed deeply.
Tree Spirit might be aware of Nian Yesevei’s thoughts, but Nian Yesevei’s words did seem to consider Tree Spirit’s feelings. This slight touch moved Tree Spirit, who then magnified it.
At this point, Angel didn’t know what to say and chose to remain silent… After all, whether or not a dedicated space for the tea party is established, it has nothing to do with him. He doesn’t need to take sides, but even if he did, from the perspectives of interest, emotion, and safety, Angel could side with either Liana or Tree Spirit.
When Angel decided to distance himself from the choice, Tree Spirit suddenly coughed twice, then spoke to Angel in a careful tone: “By the way, do you remember the advice I gave you before?”
Angel was stunned for a moment, not catching on: “What advice?”
“The one about the mission, the advice I gave you earlier.”
When the mission was mentioned, Angel immediately understood what Tree Spirit was talking about.
A few days ago, when Angel left Lord Rhine, Tree Spirit had sought him out and given him some advice, including a suggestion for Angel to take on a mission.
Formal wizard Angel, while enjoying the resources, also needs to return the favor. This is the so-called Mission Indicator.
Due to his role at the Research Institute, Angel brought many benefits to the Savage Grottoes, so this time, he could ignore the mission indicator. However, Tree Spirit still hoped he would take on some missions, firstly to stop idle gossip, and secondly to integrate more quickly into the wizard circle of the Savage Grottoes.
“Do you remember now?” Tree Spirit asked Angel urgently, seeing a change in his eyes.
“I do remember, but I’m wondering, why did Tree Spirit Lord suddenly mention the mission? Is there something you need?”
With utmost gentleness, Tree Spirit said, “I have a mission here, would you be interested? The reward is very generous~”
Angel quietly looked at Tree Spirit: “About the venue for the tea party?”
Tree Spirit nodded: “Smart.”
Angel: “…” He could guess that Tree Spirit’s sudden mention of a mission meant he wanted Angel to help him find a venue for the tea party.
“What do you think, do you want to take this mission?”
Angel shook his head without hesitation: “Tree Spirit Lord must know, I’ve been busy consolidating myself lately, and I don’t think I have time to do this mission.”
Tree Spirit’s eyes dimmed; he understood Angel’s situation and could only sigh: “Okay, then I’ll go ask someone else.”
Angel wanted to tell Tree Spirit that even if he asked someone else, the mission would surely fail… Liana had made up her mind and would not change it, unless a better place was truly found.
In such places, there are very few.
A tea party is also a kind of demonstration of the power of the Savage Grottoes. Is there any place better than inside the Eternal Tree? More capable of showcasing the strength of the Savage Grottoes?
The answer is no, at least near the Paramjit Plateau, it’s definitely not to be found.
What Angel was thinking, Tree Spirit could actually think of as well, but he still planned to try. Who knows, maybe he really could find it?
After finishing the matter of the tea party, Tree Spirit said, “Speaking of which, you haven’t said yet, what do you need from me?”
Returning to the main topic, Angel’s expression immediately became serious, and he briefly explained the reason.
“You mean Tizarro’s casual notebook?” Tree Spirit pondered: “I do know about this notebook and have seen its contents.”
When Tree Spirit mentioned this, a hint of deep meaning flashed in his eyes: “I know what you want to ask. About that hidden room, right?”
Angel nodded, indeed, Tree Spirit knew about this.
Tree Spirit: “As for this hidden room, I’m not very clear either. Tizarro never mentioned it, and I only learned about it after he left the Southern Region and I looked through this notebook.”
“Have you, Tree Spirit Lord, met Tizarro?” As soon as Angel finished speaking, he suddenly realized, with Tree Spirit’s status, how could he have not met Tizarro.
Tree Spirit glanced at Angel but didn’t respond to this question, and continued to talk about the hidden room: “After seeing the notes about the hidden room, there were wizards who entered the ruins to explore, but unfortunately, they didn’t find any clues.”
“Rhine Mute also entered these ruins at the time, but he didn’t discover anything either.”
“Later, we basically reached a consensus that the so-called hidden room might not exist at all, and the records in the notes might just be a casual entry by Tizarro.”
“Even if such a hidden room really exists, it’s estimated that there is nothing special about it. If there were anything special, Tizarro would definitely have mentioned it.”
