Chapter 430: Waiting
It took the Demon Hunter seven seconds to empty the entire top layer of fruits, each one more than a man tall.
When the penultimate fruit was cut off by Xu Yichen's sword, it was almost ripe, and a palm that looked very close to a human pierced the epiderma and stretched out in his direction with a hand full of mucus.
But it was all in vain, the sharp blade severed the connection between the fruit and the branches, and the humanoid creature in the fruit fell downward with the last hope of the Chaos Warlock.
The two human arms waved in the air in a panic, as if they were unwilling to fail.
At this altitude, even if the monster in the fruit is amazingly strong, it is unlikely that it will survive after landing.
With the idea of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots, Xu Yichen carefully observed the surroundings and found that there were no other hidden fruits around, so he turned his attention back to the Chaos Warlock.
"So, you're a Chaos Warlock who doesn't even have a name in my teacher's mouth and only has a code name in Kylemohan?" The Demon Hunter said with great interest to the immobile enemy.
But in the bottom of his heart, Xu Yichen still maintained enough vigilance.
He's looking for the Al Eyre's so-called Treeheart, and the only thing that might give him an answer here is the half-vegetative guy in front of him.
On the other hand, he is also thinking about his own evacuation.
As I said before, at this height, jumping directly and waiting for the arrival of the orbital strike on it, for him, the chances of survival are basically the same.
"That's not a code name, that's my name." The Chaos Warlock didn't know if he still had a chance to complete the fusion, and he kept a low profile for hundreds of years, and in the end he was careless in the moments before he succeeded.
"Is there anything you would like to say about this tree?" Xu Yichen stepped on the trunk of the tree under his feet and asked the Chaos Warlock.
Xu Yichen admired the creativity of the Chaos Warlock very much, and after fighting Chaos for so long, this was the first time he had a refreshing feeling.
"Boring and old-fashioned story, I persuaded a descendant of the Divine Chosen Goddess of Life to borrow her life characteristics to transform into this miracle tree." The Chaos Warlock was very cooperative, which made Xu Yichen even more alert.
"Don't be nervous, my plan wasn't that fast, I have to say, you came at a very good time." The Chaos Warlock's voice was very free: "I don't know if it's a coincidence, or if it's a clever arrangement of the will of this world, in short, when you stand in front of me and destroy my hole cards after I leave, you win." ”
The Demon Hunter was unmoved.
"I admit defeat, I have been through hundreds of years of life, I feel that I can face this result calmly, and if you can leave me a little time to say my last words, I will be very grateful to you." The Chaos Warlock spread his arms and pointed to his lower body, "I was going to make this tree merge with me, but it will take time. ”
Xu Yichen glanced around and made sure that there was nothing of value here except for the man in front of him.
"What are you looking for?" The Chaos Warlock asked, "Why don't you ask the master here, I think you kicked open the door of my house, you shouldn't have come empty-handed, right?" After all, with your strength, it's impossible to destroy the Lilith Tree, so why don't we be honest? ”
"I'm looking for the heart of the tree." Xu Yichen nodded, walked to the opposite side of the Chaos Warlock, and sat on the ground: "Then let's start, I have always been good at talking, and I will give you a minute to review your life." ”
"Good, that's a very good start." The Chaos Warlock nodded in satisfaction and reached for his mask.
Behind the mask, however, there is no real face, or head.
A simple hemispherical metal supported the Chaos Warlock's hood, and behind the mask, an emerald green gem shimmered with a terrifying light.
Countless nerves and blood vessels are connected to it, carrying green blood and flowing back and forth.
As the light flickered brightly, the voice of the Chaos Warlock came, "This is the heart you're looking for, I picked it the first time Lilith's tree spawned the heart and replaced my brain. ”
"You're not afraid I'll ruin it right now?" Xu Yichen moved his wrist and began to consider the possibility of snatching the heart of the tree by himself.
"Why tempt back and forth? You don't have much time left for me, and if you dare to get close to my body, I won't need to waste my time here waiting for death. The Chaos Warlock pulled his mask back under his hood, "I'll need at least an hour to complete the fusion, and I won't even have the ability to cast spells before that." ”
"Lilith's Tree, you gave it the name?" Xu Yichen took out the positioning device provided by the Ain El clan from his arms, and gestured to the Chaos Warlock: "I don't think you will mind, right?" ”
"Is this a device that provides targeting for ultra-long-range strikes?" The Chaos Warlock's voice was full of curiosity, as if he was genuinely interested in what the Demon Hunter was holding, "Of course I don't mind, please feel free. ”
Xu Yichen followed the caster's words, activated the instrument in his hand, and placed it five meters away from the Chaos Warlock.
"When I was younger, no, when I was a human, we used to study this technology, and this stuff reminded me a lot of things from the past." Instead of focusing on that, the Chaos Warlock continued, "Forget it, let's not talk about the past, Lilith, it's an elven girl's name. ”..
Xu Yichen nodded, not answering the question, he didn't know how long it would take for the Al El Clan's orbital strike to reach the battlefield.
However, the cross-space strike should not be instantaneous, so he still has time to think about evacuation.
In the previous battles, no one had raised this question at all, because everyone felt that this was a mission with no return, including Xu Yichen himself.
In fact, he considers himself the best person to perform the task, partly because he is a player and can be resurrected, and partly because he doesn't trust the people of the Al Eyre, and he doesn't trust the natives.
This kind of task that is related to the survival of an entire continent and the safety of tens of thousands of players, he cannot hand it over to others, only him, and he can only complete it himself.
If he didn't see the arrival of the orbital strike, Xu Yichen would not have evacuated now, if there was a problem with the locator and the orbital strike did not come as promised, he would do it himself.
And if it wasn't the orbital strike, but the portal of the Ain El clan, the scene would be even more lively.
