Chapter 4 - Crystal Body

The journey through the forest was both exhilarating and revealing. From the bird's perspective, he observed the intricate ecosystem teeming with life, from bustling colonies of insects to elusive predators stalking their prey among the dense undergrowth.

As they delved deeper into the heart of the forest, he sensed a subtle shift in the atmosphere, a palpable undercurrent of magic woven into the very fabric of the land. Intrigued by this discovery, he directed the Woodpecker towards the source of the magical energy, eager to uncover its origin and potential significance.

Guided by instinct and curiosity, it navigated through the tangled maze of foliage, their journey taking them deeper into the heart of the enchanted forest. The air hummed with mystical energy, pulsating with a vibrant intensity that stirred something primal within him. As they pressed forward, the canopy overhead grew denser, casting dappled shadows that danced across the forest floor.

Suddenly, they stumbled upon a clearing bathed in ethereal moonlight, the trees parting to reveal a shimmering pool at its center.

The Woodpecker flew towards it as if it knows that he wanted to investigate the pool.

As they approached the pool, he felt a sense of awe wash over him, the water reflecting the stars above like a mirror to the heavens. Entranced by its hypnotic beauty.

As he gazed into the depths of the pool, he felt a strange sensation wash over him, as if the waters held secrets waiting to be unveiled. With a sense of trepidation and excitement, he dipped his hand into the cool liquid, the surface parting to reveal a glimpse of what lay beneath.

Then the Woodpecker fly away from that pool, it was going to collect small twigs, so that Woodpecker can build its nest in the dungeon.

It gathered the twigs and flew back to the dungeon, at that time I defeated many mineral rats and accumulated over 10 dungeon points.

At that exact moment a panel opend infront of me.

[ Congratulations you have killed more than 10 intruders, please select a reward from below. ]

[ Crystal body

As the panel appeared before him, presenting him with a choice of rewards, he pondered each option carefully, weighing the potential benefits and implications of his decision. With his dungeon expanding and his strength growing, he knew that the reward he chose would have a significant impact on his journey through the enchanted forest.

After deliberating for a moment, he reached a decision. With a sense of determination, he selected the "Crystal Body" as his reward, intrigued by the prospect of harnessing the power of crystalline magic to enhance his abilities and defenses not only that with this he can move around freely.

With a confirming touch on the holographic panel, the choice was made. Moments later, a radiant glow enveloped him as the magic of the forest responded to his decision. From the shimmering pool before him emerged a spectral figure, its form coalescing from the ethereal energies that permeated the clearing.

The Crystal Body stood before him, its translucent form shimmering in the moonlight, a manifestation of ancient magic and mystical power. As he looked at the crystalline figure, he felt a surge of energy course through him, a profound connection to the ethereal realm and the mysteries of the enchanted forest.

With the Crystal Body by his side, he knew that his journey through the forest would be fraught with challenges and dangers, but he faced the unknown with renewed confidence and determination. Together, they would unlock the secrets of the enchanted realm, forging a path towards greatness and embracing the magic that bound them to this mystical land.

The presence of the Crystal Body by his side immediately shifted the dynamics of his journey through the enchanted forest. Not only did it serve as a guardian, its mere presence seemed to alter the environment around them. The once dense and suffocating underbrush now seemed to part willingly, as if the forest itself recognized the authority of his new companion.

[ Would you like to temporarily transfer your consciousness to the crystal body ]

With the option to transfer his consciousness into the Crystal Body, he paused, contemplating the implications of such a choice. This was an opportunity to experience the enchanted forest in a way no ordinary being could, to see it through the eyes of magic itself. The potential for discovery, for understanding the deepest secrets of the forest, was immense. Yet, it was not a decision to be made lightly. The risks were unknown, and the connection to the Crystal Body, though profound, was still new and untested.

After a moment of reflection, driven by an insatiable curiosity and a desire to delve deeper into the mysteries of the enchanted realm, he decided to accept the offer. With a mixture of excitement and apprehension, he signaled his consent to the holographic panel.

Immediately, a surge of energy flowed through him, a sensation unlike anything he had ever experienced. His vision blurred, then cleared, revealing the forest from a completely new perspective. He was now perceiving the world through the Crystal Body, feeling the ancient magic of the forest coursing through him as if it were his own.

The sensations were extraordinary. He could feel the ebb and flow of the magical currents, see the auras of life emanating from every leaf and creature. The intricate web of life, the interconnectedness of all things within the forest, was laid bare before him in a dazzling array of colors and energies. He moved through the forest, not as a visitor, but as an integral part of its very essence.

As he explored this new existence, he discovered that he could interact with the magical forces in ways he hadn't imagined. With a thought, he could encourage plants to grow, heal wounded animals, and purify sections of the forest that had been tainted by dark magic.

As walked using his new crystal body, he got confronted by a snake with two heads.

[ Intruder Detected ]

[ Please deal with the intruder before it destroys the core ]

Confronted with the two-headed snake, an embodiment of the forest's darker aspects, he realized the gravity of the threat it posed. This creature, with its fierce eyes and venomous intent, was not merely a guardian of the forest's forbidden secrets but a potential destroyer of the delicate balance he had come to protect.
