Female priests: Can pastors only be bullied?

“See that huge forest not far away?

That is the forest of the world's largest trees, called giant trees.

There are very dangerous man-eating plants growing inside, and you might get eaten by them if you are not careful.

If you want to enter the fairy kingdom, you must first enter the giant tree."

Looking at the forest of super-giant trees coming into view, Anna couldn't wait to explain.

Compared to ordinary trees, the lowest tree in front is seven stories high.

The huge trees that block out the sun form an endless forest, bringing a strong sense of oppression.

It was clearly daytime, but the ground was pitch black and the entire sun was blocked by the tall trees.

"Each tree is so tall... This is the first time I've seen it."

Ito was shocked.

"Entering this forest will lead you to the Elf Kingdom? Then why is there no sign of the Elf Kingdom on the map?"

Elphis asked with a frown.

The map in hand does have a mark of [Giant Tree], but it does not show any place related to the Elf Kingdom. After passing the giant tree, there is an endless plain.

"Hey, this is a secret. I'll tell you when we get to 'that place'."

Anna made a mysterious gesture and spoke mysteriously.

“This is not a game.”

The corners of Elphis' mouth twitched, and after saying a simple sentence, she ignored Anna.

“So… so big.”

Lucy couldn't help but sigh.

"Hehehe, can those carnivorous plants in the forest be eaten? I haven't tried them yet~"

Fuina rubbed her palms together, tears almost falling from her mouth.

The carriage was moving quickly towards the huge tree ahead.

The carriage stopped when it was still a hundred meters away from the huge tree.

"The next step is hiking. The huge trees are dangerous at every moment, so you have to be careful."

Anna jumped out of the car first.

"Let's store all the supplies in the carriage in the magic storage space. We probably won't need the carriage anymore after we reach the Elf Kingdom."

The rest of the team members jumped down as well.

"What about these three horses?"

Ito asked.

"Release him. He has worked for us heroes for so long. It's time to end it."

Elphis sighed.

The atmosphere among the crowd was somewhat silent.

After spending time together in the past, I have developed feelings for the three horses, but now it is time to say goodbye.

"There's nothing we can do about it, right? Let's just give them their freedom."

Ito took the initiative to say.

Elphis walked forward and took off the equipment from the horse one by one.

Gently stroking the horse's forehead, Elphis said softly:

"Okay, your work is done. Now I will give you your freedom."

Fuina walked forward and talked to the horse in these strange words.

She speaks animal language and can communicate with animals.

The three horses quickly understood what Elphis meant and did not rush to leave. Instead, they walked up to the brave members and rubbed their bellies affectionately with their heads one by one, as if saying their final farewell.

.......

"Goodbye everyone, have a safe journey."

Looking at the horse going away, Anna waved goodbye reluctantly.

"Okay, we are about to enter the giant forest. Don't relax too much, or you will be swallowed by the Piranha Plant."

Lucy: "It's so scary, being eaten by a Piranha Plant... It's the scariest thing."

Ito: "Lucy, you can't be too timid, or you won't be able to find a pretty boy in the future~"

Fuina: "Humph! Coward! Beautiful and bold Miss Fox is perfect!"

Elphis: "Let's go without further delay."

Charlotte: “….”

Anna: "I haven't seen my mother for a long time~ Hehehe, I must get him when the time comes~"

Entering the huge forest, the sky suddenly darkened and the huge leaves blocked the sunlight.

As soon as you take your first step, the dead silence of the forest makes you feel uneasy.

The air is filled with pleasant floral scents, and the mind seems to relax unconsciously.

The surrounding vegetation is extremely lush and growing vigorously, and there are many unfamiliar plants.

What surprised the brave team was that since entering the forest, they had not seen any living creatures, not even insects.

The entire forest is like a huge spider web, and any creature that enters the forbidden area has become a meal for this forest.

"I'm afraid we are the only living creatures in this forest. The original animals and insects in the forest have long been eaten by man-eating plants."

Anna explained warily.

After passing through a towering tree, suddenly, an unidentified object appeared from the side and rushed towards the brave group at lightning speed.

Instantly, Elphis reacted, drawing her sword even faster and cutting the attacking object in half.

puff--

It fell to the ground, and the brave team finally saw what they had just raided.

The monster was green all over, and looked like a tongue. Even when it was broken, there were traces of green blood.

Extremely disgusting.

Before they could speak, a green tongue shot out from the other side at high speed towards the brave team.

Charlotte reacted early, grabbed the tongue directly, and exerted force to tear it off.

The attack was not over yet. The next moment, green tongues stretched out from all directions and attacked the brave team without any blind spots.

A strong holy light suddenly burst out from Ito's body, and when these tongues approached, they were instantly evaporated by the dazzling holy light.

If it were someone else, they would not be able to withstand the sudden attack.

"What the hell, it's so dangerous just now."

Ito felt a little tingling on his scalp; the attack just now scared him.

"Otherwise, no adventurer who entered the giant tree ever came out.

The one that attacked us just now should be Green Tongue."

Anna frowned and pointed in a direction.

The team of brave men looked in the direction her finger pointed, and discovered that under the giant tree there were huge mouths half a person's height with sharp fangs and the remains of severed green tongues in their mouths.

It was closed just now, but now it has opened its mouth wide again. It is obvious that the culprit of the sneak attack is this plant with a big mouth.

“It must be the work of the big-mouthed plant. Once you are caught by the tongue, you will probably be sucked directly into the big mouth without any time to struggle and become their food.

As expected, I was a little careless just now. I didn't react in time. The deeper into the forest, the more dangerous the plants I encountered. "

"......"

"Eh, why is it so disgusting? It doesn't look delicious at all. Damn, disgusting thing."

Fuina squatted on the ground, poking the severed green tongue with a small branch, her face full of disgust.

Ito:......

It's hard, the fist is hard.

You're still thinking about eating, right?!
