Rise of the Plants

Hermila, who was hiding in a secret room to deal with things, had a look of exhaustion on her face. "Hey, I don't know when you will come back." Hermila raised her head with some worry in her eyes.

Counting the time, it has been several months since Chi Nan left here. This time it was not somewhere else, but directly to the Southern Half-Elf Empire on the mainland. They can't be contacted at all from such a far away place.

During this period of time, Hermila was dealing with matters within the increasingly larger territory, and felt much more tired than before.

But every day, Hemila will take time to miss Chi Nan, which is the biggest motivation to support herself. Today was still the same as usual, but what Hermila didn't expect was that a table next to her suddenly lit up. Then, a vine grew quickly and climbed onto the table, forming a large bud.

The next moment, a voice sounded from the bud that made Hermila think about it day and night: "Hermila, how have you been during this time?"

Hermila was stunned for a moment, then shook her head: "I'm hallucinating again."

On the other side, Chi Nan heard Hermila talking to herself, and a flash of distress flashed in her eyes. "Hermila, it's not an illusion, I'm back." Chi Nan's voice sounded in the bud again.

Hermila finally noticed the flower bud that appeared beside her at some point. She stretched out her hand and touched it gently, and her eyes gradually became moist. "Sir, you, you are finally back, great."

Hermila's voice trembled. Although there was no way to see the image, Chi Nan could still feel the joy and grievance in Hermila's heart. Next to her, Sophila gently hugged Chi Nan's arm and comforted her silently.

The soft spot in Chi Nan's heart was touched. After taking a deep breath, Chi Nan adjusted his emotions: "It's been difficult for you during this period. This time I'm back, just leave everything to me."

In the past, when I went overseas, I often sent letters via messenger airship. But this time, it was the first time that two people had been away for such a long time without any news, and the place they went to was still so far away. After Hermila left Chinan, she was worried almost every day. Until now, the worries in my heart can finally be completely let go.

Hermila wiped away her tears gently: "Sir, are you back now? Where are you? I will pick you up right now."

Chi Nan said helplessly: "Not yet, I am on my way back. If there are no other accidents, I will be able to return to the territory in two days at most." Chi Nan's voice made Hermila a little disappointed.

But then Hermila became strange: "Sir, how did you talk to me when we are still two days away? Has your ability improved again?" Hermila knew it very well. In the past, it was all through plants. Brains communicate with each other.

However, the range that plant brains can communicate is not very large. It is okay at close range on the battlefield. Within the territory, relying on a large number of plant brains as transfer stations, communication can barely be achieved. But if the distance is too far, there is nothing we can do. Chi Nan has always wanted to use plant brain to build a large signal tower, but has never been successful due to the communication distance.

The two-day journey by airship is not that short, especially the current second-generation airships, which are jet-powered.

Chi Nan smiled proudly: "Haha, of course it's because I found better plants in the Elf Forest. I found a silver plant called Zorella, which has very powerful spatial magic patterns and can transcend Connect over long distances.”

Chi Nan immediately showed off his brand-new invention. There was no sense of accomplishment in showing off to others, but showing off to Hermila made Chi Nan feel very interesting.

"So that's it. Then the territory-wide network plan you have always wanted to make, my lord, will definitely succeed." Hermila and Sophira also knew what Chi Nan was going to do.

"Hehe, sister Hermila, actually this plan has been basically completed."

"Sister Sophie, you are here too. How have you been during this time? Tell me about your experiences."

Hermila's mood suddenly relaxed, and she was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. Hearing Sophila's voice, Hermila was also a little envious, envious that Sophila could always be by Chi Nan's side during this period.

Although there is no way to meet each other now, through ultra-long-distance communication, it can be the same as making a phone call. I could only hear the sound, which was considered news. The three people told each other what happened on their side during this period, while the guards next to them walked far away and became vigilant in the distance.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the three of them had been chatting for more than two hours.

"Sister Hermila, nothing happened in the territory during this time." Sophira asked naturally.

But after hearing this, Hermila's face suddenly became serious. "A very serious thing happened in the territory. I didn't know what to do at first, but now that you're back, I'll leave it to you to make the decision."

"What's going on that you can't even decide to pay attention to?" Chi Nan was very surprised. Hermila had always been handling matters in the territory. In fact, Herila knew the territory better than Chi Nan.

Hermila had a wry smile on her face: "What else could it be? Some people felt that they got too little, and they united with some outsiders to prepare for rebellion. I have already received the news, but I don't know who the specific people are, so I have been waiting for the opportunity to catch them all. ." As expected, it was Hermila. It turned out that the plan had already been made.

"Want to rebel? Who is so bold and who gives them the confidence." The first thing Chi Nan felt was not anger, but curiosity. Because their own territory is a piece of metal, no one can successfully rebel.

"Who else could it be? Isn't it the nobles who were deprived of their power in the original empire? They came out to make trouble again. This time, they took advantage of the time you left, and they thought they had a chance."

"I left, but aren't those plant weapons still there? They won't be able to listen to them because of the plant weapons." Chi Nan felt very incredible about this.

Hermila nodded slightly: "That's it. They bribed a few generals who control plant weapons in our territory and prepared to use these weapons to rebel. I don't know the specific situation, but they seem to be meeting in the south. Originally, I wanted to Use this opportunity to do it when they gather together."

Chi Nan understood that these were probably the people he had promoted because of their military exploits. Your own guards will not rebel, because they are already loyal, and the only ones who can be persuaded are the soldiers who followed you when the territory was first established.
