Chapter 99 The Ancient Divine Tree
Richard never imagined that wasps could grow from trees.
This world is also separated from Dapu.
After taking a deep breath, he looked at the human-faced ancient tree without noticing them, and was still destroying the boulders under the trunk.
With a wave of his hand, the gargoyle lowered his figure to avoid being discovered.
"Master."
After Richard landed, Gray, who was still in the desert, immediately stepped forward to salute.
Glancing around, "How are the casualties?"
"Desertification has started, and the impact is not big."
He nodded and got to the point.
"What happened to the ancient tree with a human face? Did it cause that earthquake?"
The mummified hero shook his head.
"As soon as we arrived, the earth shook. The tree man only appeared after the fission of the earth."
Richard nodded and looked down at the broken earth around him and the yellow sand in the gaps.
It seems that something was buried deep underground before, but unfortunately, everything was destroyed by such a huge earthquake.
This reminded him of the place of the dead where he obtained the sacrificial coffin and allowed Gray to be born. The collapse of the passage was also particularly violent.
"The strength of this tree man is extremely terrifying. I smell a deadly aura on it."
Gray's soul fire was beating brightly, and his empty tone was rarely solemn.
Watching the seven or eight branches frantically bombarding the boulders, creating a noise greater than that of an earthquake, Richard took a deep breath.
Opened the other party's properties panel.

After reading the attributes, Richard's breathing became short of breath.
What a terrifying existence!
Except for the desert dragon whose attributes were all question marks near the one-way portal, this tree of evil was definitely the most powerful individual monster he had ever encountered.
Not to mention the level up to level 10, it is still an extremely rare boss unit.
The official website introduction of "Glory Era" clearly states that the number of bosses born in the wild is extremely rare, and each one has a combat power that far exceeds that of heroes of the same level.
It is a hero that surpasses the same level, not a unit.
The meaning is self-evident.
"I originally wanted to take over the nests of those venomous wasps and move them to the Elaeagnus arborescens forest to protect the desert bees, but how should I play this now?"
Look at the terrifying size and the giant branches that are constantly waving, plus the black and venomous wasps.
Richard's scalp felt a little numb.
How to fight this?
Those venomous wasps alone would be enough for him to drink.
Not to mention the Ancient Tree of Resentment itself, the branches have a 20% instant death property.
Even if all the troops in his hands rush over, they may not be able to defeat this boss.
"Leave first."
Seeing that most of the dust had dispersed, Richard decisively issued an evacuation order.
This boss cannot be dealt with at this stage, the opponent is too strong
After riding the gargoyle and flying out of the gravel area, Richard let out a long breath.
"Master, have we found the venomous wasp's nest?"
Gunter, who was waiting at the rear, didn't know what kind of terrifying boss was hidden inside.
After asking Gray to explain to the other party, he made a decision in his mind.
"Gaunt, leave two teams of bloody mummies nearby to monitor the ancient tree of resentment. We will deal with it after we become stronger."
The bloody mummies recruit troops from corpses. Gunter can recruit three squads every day, and he won't feel bad if they all die.
"Yes, Master."
Gunter immediately arranged two teams of bloody mummies around with the cooperation of the gargoyles.
He didn't get too close to the ancient tree of resentment, he just needed to determine the location of the ancient tree of resentment.
After all, the opponent's racial talent can uproot the tree and run away.
If it were run away by this tree, wouldn't it be a huge loss?
There is no solution now, and there cannot be a solution forever.
"If the ancient divine tree can be planted near the Elaeagnus elegans forest, who will come to steal the honey and the Flame Dragon Rabbit?!"
Thinking about that scene made him excited.
But now, let’s go back first, because we can’t complete this small goal for the time being.
On the way back, Richard asked Gray and Gunter to lead half of the army and sweep around.
If you can't beat the boss, you can't go back empty-handed. The old fisherman will never have an air force.
This is the last bit of stubbornness.
With Gargoyles as aerial reconnaissance units, the time spent searching for prey is greatly reduced.
The army only needs to go straight to the gathering place of wild monsters discovered by the gargoyles and annihilate them. No more wasting time searching.
Richard had a taste of riding gargoyles, so he was too lazy to walk and directly recruited two gargoyles as mounts.
One is sitting and the other is flying below. If he falls, the other can catch him.
I have to say that as a construct, the 3-meter-tall dark gargoyle is indeed powerful. It not only has broad shoulders, but also has a strong flying speed.
It doesn't feel unstable at all because it's carrying someone on its back.
It's just that my whole body is stiff and my butt is sore after sitting for a long time.
Richard simply assigned a small team of gargoyles to Gray and Gunter to explore the road, and he took two teams of gargoyles to start scanning the map.
The rare 3-star, level 5 dark gargoyle is a killer weapon.
In addition to not having instant death skills, the attack is more powerful than the Ax of the Dead.
A single dive can tear enemies on the ground into pieces with its claws, and its powerful defense can keep it intact even if it is surrounded by enemies.
Every monster gathering place can kill seven in and seven out.
Let Richard once again realize the power of the dark gargoyle.
There is nothing wrong with this unit except that the resources required for recruitment are expensive.
By the time Richard returned to Twilight City, it was already late at night.
All the soldiers were carrying loads of prey on their backs. Today, there were gargoyles exploring the way, and the prey they harvested was several times that of the previous hunt.
The number of elite 1-star bloody mummies behind Gunter also reached 4 teams. Not a single corpse hunted today was wasted.
Make a lot of money.
Place the prey next to the well water and let two teams of mummies guard it.
Richard returned to the lord's mansion, and after entering the house, he found that Karu was still there.
In the hall, oil lamps made of animal fat glowed dimly.
Opposite Karu, three middle-aged men were tied up with ropes. They seemed to have made a mistake and were being interrogated.
After seeing Richard enter the room, Karu immediately stood up and saluted.
"Good night, Lord Richard"
Richard nodded slightly and frowned at those people.
"What's going on?"
Karu said solemnly.
"These three people are spies sent by Oasis City. They pretended to defect to Oasis City this afternoon, but secretly encouraged residents to leave their territory and defect to Oasis City."
"As soon as the residents found out, they reported it to us."
Richard's eyes turned cold.
"Oasis City?"
"Yes, it's the oasis the explorer team discovered a few days ago and they built a city."
Richard was shocked now.
Can one oasis accommodate so many people? Those hundreds of refugees are not enough to satisfy your appetite, why do you have to travel so far to the Twilight City to attract people?
What is hidden in that desert oasis, and how can it support so many people?
Karu mentioned it to him yesterday, but he didn't expect that the other party would show up now.
After coming back to his senses, he became very interested.
He keenly felt that there were huge benefits hidden in it. (End of chapter)
