It is a lush forest.

The shape of the leaves and the general shape of the branches suggest that the forest is made of the same kind of trees, which is rare but not unusual.

But that's not the main feature of this wood.

"The first line of defense was broken through by the woods! Send a signal for the brothers over there to retreat into the second line of defense! Don't get overwhelmed by those damn trees! ”

Yes, the main feature of this forest is that it moves at an alarming speed like a colony of ants.

The Fruit Tree of Madness, a magical plant of unknown origin, plunged Timothyen, who had already stabilized, into chaos again.

They sometimes reside somewhere, pretending to be ordinary fruit groves, and plunging the creatures that eat their fruits into a state of extreme worship of the fruit tree; When there are no more awake creatures around, the trees pull their roots out of the ground and gallop across the plains in droves, looking for new targets.

And their target this time is Timothyen's only human force, the Resistance.

"No, fire elemental magic is completely useless! These things aren't afraid of fire! ”

An elemental mage specializing in fire roared loudly to warn his companions, transforming the fire attribute in his hand from Burning Enhancement to Explosive Enhancement, condensing it into a fireball and throwing it out.

Because of the dense density of enemies, magic such as fireballs doesn't even need to be aimed to hit a large area.

The flames still failed to ignite the Crazy Fruit Tree, and naturally it didn't hurt the burn, and although the powerful explosion blew over a fruit tree, it looked like the leaves and sawdust were flying together, but in fact it only blew up some bark and leaves, and it was not able to cause decisive damage to the Crazy Fruit Tree. When the overturned fruit trees got up, they joined the torrent of the sea of trees again.

"The bark is so hard that my enchanted sword can't cut through it."

Behind the second line of defense, a burly man with a strap on his upper body, who had been badly wounded in the battle of the first line, said in a sullen voice: "It's like cutting on iron, but it could be worse." Because I could have cut off a horn even with a piece of iron, but those damn trees have only lost some bark! ”

He looked excited, probably because the wound had been split again, and a bright red color appeared on the snow-white bandage, and it seemed that blood had oozed out again.

"It's not good, the second line of defense won't last long if it goes on like this!"

Since almost all of the rebels were civilians (the nobles were either killed when the dark creatures invaded or knelt down to lick the dark creatures in exchange for a way out), even the commanders wore almost no different outfits from the soldiers.

At this moment, the commander, who had led several teams to fight several beautiful battles with dark creatures, had a solemn face and a cold sweat on his forehead. He looked back at his herald, "What's going on at headquarters?" Have the old and weak women and children been transferred? ”

The people who dare to stand up against the oppression of dark creatures are almost all iron-blooded men who are not afraid of death, but their parents, wives and children are different.

The main reason why the rebel members follow the top brass with all their hearts is that the rebel top brass will take care of their relatives as much as possible, so that they have no worries when fighting.

"No, it's still evacuating!" The herald who had just crawled out of the tunnel was panting, and before he could catch his breath, he replied quickly, "The leader asked you to support for at least half an hour more." ”

"Impossible!"

The commander shook his head, his face full of bitterness: "If Lord Loba is still here, it would be a different matter, but now this is completely impossible. ”

The Wild Fruit Tree's combat power was very different from what they had previously estimated. The fact that the line of defense, which was unexpectedly powerful enough to hold off the inferior demon forces for a whole day, the vampire troops for at least an hour, and the abyssal demon hordes for more than half an hour, would collapse so quickly.

There are three defense lines outside the main headquarters.

The first one was broken before it even reached ten minutes. Now the second line of defense is also in jeopardy, and I am afraid that it will not last more than five minutes...... To be honest, he is not at all optimistic about the third line of defense.

"Are you kid afraid of death?" The commander turned his head and looked at the herald who was easily catching his breath.

The young man was probably only seventeen or eighteen years old, and his body was slightly short because of malnutrition, and his skin was dark. There is a ring of fluff on the mouth, apparently not yet an adult.

When the commander asked this, the young man immediately puffed up his chest: "There are no people in the rebels who are afraid of death!" ”

"Well said!"

The commander laughed, stretched out his hand, and took out two enchanted swords from his side.

Because of its inextricable relationship with Sivi, Edric's Chamber of Commerce often provides the rebels with some good equipment. There aren't many magic items with permanent magic effects. But if it's just an enchanted weapon, it's not a small amount...... Although most of them are just made by the students of Adric Academy in class.

"Sir, what are you?" The young man inexplicably took one of the enchanted swords and asked puzzledly.

"We couldn't stop it for that long, and because the fighting power of the Crazy Fruit Tree was far beyond expectations, the morale of the team fell too quickly, and if we continue like this, our troops will soon be demoralized and retreat." The commander waved the enchanted sword in his hand for the first time in a long time, looking for the feeling of killing the enemy before: "Now the only way is for me to take the lead to boost morale." ”

As he spoke, he looked at the young man with a pleasant face: "If you dare to fight to the death, just rush with me, if you don't have the guts, I don't blame you, you can return from the tunnel and go and tell the leader about my decision." ”

"Sir, I—I'm going with you!"

The herald's blood boiled immediately, and he waved the enchanted sword given to him by the commander, and shouted excitedly.

"Good boy, if you can survive this time, maybe you will be a big man in the future."

The commander was relieved and took the young man to the battlefield together.

But contrary to what they thought, the third line of defense was calm, and the second line of defense, although the shouts of killing, screaming and explosions were still loud, but there was no sign of rout.

"What's going on?" The commander grabbed a member of the medical team who was about to rush to the second line of defense and rescue the wounded.

"It's a group of young men in robes and cloaks." The medical team member was also a little confused: "They suddenly rushed out and helped us stabilize the second line of defense. ”

As he spoke, he patted his head: "By the way, Lord Loba is also inside." ”

"Lord Loba is back? In this way, it could be that group of young people are the reinforcements that the leader said! (To be continued.) )
