Chapter 1120 Escape
The panicked barbarians evacuated in the direction of Ed and others, shouting for help as they ran.
Behind them, there are dense spikes extending from the ground and spreading vines chasing them!
How could this happen?
Ed was a little confused for a moment.
Is the sacred tree already so powerful?
The entire barbarian team was wiped out in just a few minutes?
“Gan!”
“Don’t let them come! Block them!”
Ed realized something was wrong.
The group of fleeing barbarians will most likely attract the hatred of the sacred tree!
The faces of the players following Ed turned dark.
To put it lightly, you want to stop the barbarians?
Are you kidding me?
“Fierce Dragon Breath!”
Facing the barbarians rushing towards the back of the team, Ed took out a scroll of the highest level flame spell from his backpack, held it tightly and threw it forward.
"Roar!!!"
The dragon's roar sounded!
A substantial flame blasted towards the barbarians running forward.
In an instant, the barbarians and the extending vines were submerged into the blazing sea of fire!
The flames quickly spread around!
"Crack, crackle..."
From the fire in front of me came the sound of burning vines and the painful howls of the barbarians.
The players gathered around and threw spells into the sea of fire.
After a round of spells were thrown, everyone fell into silence for a moment as they looked at the sea of fire that continued to burn.
Ed also stood there. After using a super-high-level magic scroll that far surpassed his abilities, he also entered a backlash state and was temporarily unable to move or attack.
He stared at the flames in front of him, slowly spreading towards him step by step.
“Chi!!!!”
Ed’s pupils shrank suddenly.
Almost instantly, dozens of twisted vine spikes stabbed out of the sea of fire!
The sharp thorn pierced his face in an instant, only five centimeters away from his forehead.
“Creak, creak, creak…”
The vine spikes made a faint sound.
Stopped?
Ed stared at the spikes.
He felt his own heavy heartbeat.
Cold sweat dripped down his cheeks.
He thought of something, took out the rune stone and slowly stretched it forward.
"Chi chi chi..."
After a stalemate for a few seconds, it seemed that something had been confirmed, and the spikes quickly retreated behind the sea of fire.
Huh...
Ed let out a big breath and reached out to wipe the cold sweat from his cheeks, feeling like he was exhausted after a disaster.
“Let’s go! Retreat.”
“Quick, let’s go.”
Even the barbarians have been wiped out!
Didn't even last more than ten minutes!
That was a team of more than a hundred demonized barbarians!
The player team was so frightened that they no longer had the intention to continue fighting, and followed Ed to retreat along the same route.
Now they are just glad that the zombies guarding the Ghost Tower are slow-moving zombies and cannot catch up with them.
Ed’s pupils flashed with fear.
Failed!
Those damn barbarians!
As long as we can take them into the Plague Land, everything will be left to them...
That's it?
Ed held the rune crystal obtained from Ma Xiaowan Tianli mercenary group tightly in his hand and ran forward wildly.
"Chi chi chi..."
The vines in front gave way to a passage that went straight forward.
It's too late for Ed to regret it now.
He was only happy.
He was extremely glad that he spent 50W Imperial Bunnie to purchase these three rune stones.
Otherwise...
Even the demonized barbarian team of more than a hundred people was completely wiped out in this forest.
What kind of life can they, the players, still have?
In the distance, above the Ghost Tower.
Looking at the hell-like scene below, Ma Xiaowan took a deep breath.
A terrible disaster.
She saw with her own eyes how the barbarians were wiped out.
After being dragged into the vine underground, the barbarians completely disappeared and became the nourishment of the giant tree.
Seeing a group of barbarians running away in panic, Ma Xiaowan frowned and asked: "Lord Fang Heng, aren't we going to chase? Let them go like this?"
"Yes."
< br>
Fang Heng nodded, "It's okay, let them go."
At first, Fang Heng also thought about eradicating the roots.
However, after careful consideration, I found that we are currently in a trial mission, and blindly killing players may cause changes in the trial.
If you wait and suddenly the trial game time is deducted, it will be more gain than loss.
To be on the safe side, let’s spare their lives.
Besides, keeping them has other uses.
Fang Heng gently rubbed his shoulders and waved his hand in the distance.
The alienated crystals erupted after killing the demonized barbarians are integrated into the marks on the back of the hand.
[Tip: Players obtain second-level alienation crystals*12].
Fang Heng nodded and said to Ma Xiaowan: "Let's go, come with me and have a look."
...
Outskirts of the Plaguelands.
After learning that the Plague Land was on fire, Lord Blount led the other two lord guard groups to take the lead in quickly supporting the sacred tree.
They are the first batch, and more lord guards are coming from behind.
Along the way, the lords were anxious and kept urging the team to speed up.
Arriving at the outskirts of the Plague Land area, Lord Blount and his party stopped.
About ten minutes ago, the fire gradually stopped halfway.
Unlike during the day, the giant tree in the center of the vine forest bloomed with a faint cyan light in the dark night.
The way ahead of everyone was blocked by layers of vines and tree roots.
The fire seems to have stopped?
So they're late?
What to do? Should I go in? How to get in?
The mercenary group was a little confused.
Suddenly, the vines and tree roots in front began to shrink.
A passage leading to the interior of the Plague Land gradually spread out in front of everyone's eyes.
Immediately afterwards, the sound of rapid running and breathing came from inside the trail.
Ed's team trotted all the way and gradually appeared in front of Lord Blount and his team.
Having just experienced a heart-stopping scene, Ed's team, who were running frantically for their lives, watched as they fled from the exit, finally leaving the area covered by the giant tree and vines, and then saw Lord Blount and his group outside the door.
Both sides face each other.
The scene was silent for a while.
broken!
Ed's mind went blank for a moment.
Caught red-handed!
The two lords who came with Lord Blount felt strange.
How come Ed and the others are here?
And he looked in a hurry, as if he had just experienced a big battle and was still in a panic?
Lord Blount was also puzzled and asked: "Ed? Why are you here?"
Ed was startled, and several thoughts flashed through his mind.
Huh?
Don’t the lords know about his attack on the Ghost Tower?
That’s right!
The lords knew nothing, they only came here to investigate after seeing the light of fire.
Just a chance encounter!
Ed composed himself, calmed down immediately, and replied: "Your Lordship, we saw the Plague Land burning and wanted to come to support us. Perhaps we didn't expect that the vines in the forest were stimulated by the fire and became unstable. We I was attacked by vines controlled by a giant tree on the way, so I ran out." (End of Chapter)
