Chapter 234: Between the Woods (3)
"Huh~~~!!" Heavy breathing emanated from Chen Kai's throat, and under his armor was dripping sweat almost like a waterfall, and his mouth was so dry that he could lick it to the smell of blood. The salty blood continued to seep out from the chapped lips on Chen Kai's lips, and now Chen Kai needed to drink water very much, but he didn't have time.
In front of him was one after another, or should it be said that groups of undead elves rushed in one after another, and what made Chen Kai feel difficult was that the strength of these undead elves was much stronger than the previous ones. There is no doubt that they are all high-end beings among the undead elves, and each level is around the seventh order. Although they gained a lot of experience points after killing Chen Kai, the problem was that the time it took to kill an undead spirit was enough to make three or four undead flood into the gap.
Looking at the more and more undead elves around him, Chen Kai was a little desperate, and at this time, the so-called reinforcements didn't even have a shadow, and they had been holding out for almost an hour. From the moment that terrible shock erupted to the current position, the undead spirits killed under Chen Kai's giant sword had at least broken through the hundreds, but he knew that there were still many undead in the passage, and these undead were enough to tear the exhausted people to pieces.
"Where the hell are the reinforcements!! Did they die when we died? This was a thought that had to rise in everyone's hearts, and when he was about to run out of energy, Chen Kai had to summon the two flying dragons. When the huge body of the flying dragon slowly leaned towards the city lord's mansion, those elven knights on the periphery did not react at all, they didn't know where the two flying dragons that suddenly flew down from the treetops came from.
When the two wyverns jumped into the council hall from the rooftop, Chen Kai and the others had already been compressed to a corner of the council hall, and the moment the two wyverns appeared, they directly sprayed deadly dragon breath from above. Although they were also very tired, transporting a few dwarves plus Alyssa and Aron's family left them exhausted, even with the addition of levitation as a non-adult wyvern. Therefore, the power of the dragon breath sprayed was simply incomparable to that of its heyday, but even so, it still scorched a dozen undead elves in an instant, and when the two wyverns landed, their huge bodies almost filled the council room.
However, the arrival of the two-headed flying dragon made Chen Kai and the others breathe a sigh of relief slightly, because their huge bodies directly blocked the footsteps of the undead elves. And the sheer size of the body allows them to slap the undead with their claws, almost one by one. It's just that when Chen Kai and the others took the flying dragon back to the pet space, the bodies of the two flying dragons were covered with knife marks, and they were also injured by a certain amount of undead toxin. It's just that this kind of undead toxin is not enough for the flying dragon to kill them, and after Chen Kai and they feed some holy water, the situation of the flying dragon is much better.
It's just that after the two flying dragons were put away, Chen Kai and the others were about to face hundreds of undead again, but at this time, they finally heard the voice they had dreamed of. It was the sound of the elves' weapons colliding, and at the same time, more than a dozen elven knights jumped down above their heads in an instant, looking at Chen Kai lying on the ground and the undead corpses piled up around him that almost filled the room, these elves could imagine how long Chen Kai had been here.
When these elven knights attacked the undead who entered the council hall, they instantly felt the pressure of Chen Kai and them. Although the strength of these elven knights is a cut higher than Chen Kai and them, their lethality to the undead is not as strong as half of Chen Kai's. In the first round of confrontation, there was even an elven knight who was accidentally bitten directly by an undead elf on the neck, and the elf's beautiful armor defense ability is indeed good, but sometimes it is still too thin.
Fortunately, Chen Kai could still move now, he directly grabbed the undead elf, and then ripped off the head that bit the elf knight. Then he directly covered the wound of the elf that had been bitten out with the palm of the burning holy flame. With a scream of pain, the undead toxin attached to the wound was instantly destroyed, and the elf also fainted in pain.
If it weren't for the fact that this elf was still breathing, and seeing that Chen Kai and the others were all seriously injured, it was impossible for these elf knights to turn their weapons around and slash at Chen Kai and them. When the second group of elven knights entered the council hall, Chen Kai was truly relieved, because the arrival of these elves meant that they were basically completely safe.
When the last undead elf was slain by the replaced elven knight, Chen Kai and the others had already reached the garden woodland outside the City Lord's Mansion. This glade in the middle of the city has become a place where many elven wounds are treated, not only for the injured residents, but also for the injured elven knights.
But Chen Kai: They are just too tired. The injuries were not severe, so the first thing people did when they found a safe place was to sleep upside down. Because they saw Alyssa, who was also staying here to help the elves heal the wounded, and a few black dwarves who were fighting on the sidelines, and if it wasn't safe in such an environment, then there would be no safe place.
It's just that when Chen Kai can rest, Mana Yingge, who is far away in the Denzel Forest, is still trying to hurry. The dark woodland around her kept shuttling behind her. But all the elves, including her, were very tired, and finally when they crossed a glade, they slowly stopped, stood on the treetops, and sat down slowly.
However, there is one thing that Manna Shadow needs to do before she can sit down, and that is to tie herself up with a rope, otherwise she may fall into hallucinations again and do dangerous things during her break. After all, this is a treetop more than ten meters high, and if you fall down in a chaotic situation, you will fall to your death. Until you tie a rope around your waist. Mana Shadow, whose eyes were red, slowly took out the food and stuffed it into her mouth. It's just that she doesn't have much food in her hand now, because most of the spatial equipment has been stolen by those guards of the ancient magical civilization.
Although the thieves had their own way of hiding, they ended up with little food and water. In fact, if it weren't for Mana Yingge and the others, they passed by a natural temple that was restored by Chen Kai and them. Even drinking water becomes a problem, and the food in their hands is actually not enough to sustain them for too long. Now the food in the hands of the elves is only some jerky and plant shoots, such food cannot provide them with much nutrition, the most important thing is that they can only eat two meals a day, and the food in each meal is only a palm-sized jerky and a little plant leaf, and the water is still sufficient. The drinking water they get in the natural temple is enough for them to support them for half a month, and these springs contaminated with the breath of nature have a certain effect of restoring the body, in fact, if it were not for these springs, the situation of a few elves would be even more difficult.
Slowly swallow the only jerky in your hand. Mana Shadow Song's eyes almost closed gradually, but the moment she closed them, she seemed to hear some movement, and then the moon blade in her hand stabbed behind her without hesitation. The sharp weapon instantly pierced the body of a forest monster and pinned the opponent to the tree pole, but she didn't have the slightest idea of being happy to kill the forest monster.
"Watch out for these monsters!" At the same time as the sound of Mana's shadow song sounded, she saw the scene of several elven thieves hitting the forest monsters with wooden sticks, and she did not hesitate to cut the ropes on her body, and then flew and the moon blade in her hand instantly cut through the two forest monsters that flew in front of her. Green blood mixed with foul-smelling entrails spilled through the air, and at the same time, an elven thief smashed the heads of two forest monsters with a stick in another tree.
In order to make the sticks in their hands more aggressive, the elves used the dagger in Mana Shadow Singer to cut the sticks into sharp wooden spikes, and also made several wooden daggers. But such wooden weapons are extremely fragile, because much of the wood in the forest is rotten. It looks sturdy, but it's actually fragile. Some of the wood is indeed strong, but it has a very strong evil power on it, and it will corrode their palms if used for a long time.
The weapons used by these elves were actually the ones they had picked up when they left Teramis, from under a giant tree at the edge of the forest that looked extremely sturdy and had fallen to the ground, and the sturdiness of these logs was more than they had imagined. If it weren't for the fact that the tree was too far away from the Ancient Tree of Life in their impression, perhaps they would have thought that they had picked up the stump of the Ancient Tree of Life, although this was the truth. In fact, if it weren't for the fragments of these ancient trees of life, they would not have been able to escape here with ordinary wood.
However, if the legendary dagger in the Shadow of Mana Singer, these elves would not be able to cut through the sturdy wood, and because of this, they were even more suspicious that they were picking up the fragments of the Ancient Tree of Life. It's just that they are very suspicious of the ancient trees they saw at the beginning. Because it's just an ordinary tree. However, if they understand that the wood they picked up did not come from the ancient tree, but the wood that the ancient magical civilization left behind after cleaning up the fragments of the ancient tree of life, they would probably feel very lucky.
Of course, their luck is relative, in fact, including Mana Shadow Song, they all feel that they are very unlucky. When the weapon in the Shadow Singer of Mana slices the head of a forest monster again, she realizes how many forest monsters have attacked her and the others. Hundreds of forest monsters stared at them from the treetops with green eyes. And the next moment they flew directly towards the elves. Looking at these forest monsters that flew towards her, Mana Shadow Song directly threw the moon blade in her hand, and the rotating moon blade cut an arc in the air, instantly cutting through the bodies of more than a dozen monsters.
As the Moonblade flew back, Mana Shadow Song itself soared into the air and stomped on the hideous faces of several forest monsters in mid-air. When they were stepped on by the terrifying impact of their feet, these forest monsters did not have the excitement of looking up at the picture of killing and dying under the skirt of Mana Shadow Song. The only feeling is pain, and then there is endless darkness.
When Manna Shadow Song held her weapon with both hands again, a dark shadow appeared in her mind again, "Please! Save him! Please! Save her! The images and sounds that instantly appeared in Mana Shadowsong's head made her stupefied. By the time she shook her head and returned to reality, her body had fallen to the ground.
Luckily, she came to her senses before her head hit the ground, otherwise she might have been the one who needed someone to save her life now. Forcefully inserted the moon blade in her hand into the tree pole beside her, and in a burst of gnashing pain, she finally stopped less than two meters from the ground.
Feeling the trauma on her body, Mana Shadow Song cursed the black shadow that kept appearing in her heart again, and then gritted her teeth and used the moon blade in her hand to kill the forest monsters around her who wanted to take advantage. When the last monster was killed, several elves sat out of breath in the glade, surrounded by falling monster corpses, and the faint stench on the ground was disgusting.
"Let's go! Let's find a safe place to rest! Mana Shadow's voice was full of fatigue, but they couldn't rest here after all, the strong smell of blood would attract the polluted to them, and in their current state, there was no doubt that they were the ones who were unlucky enough to meet the tainted.
Although the number of polluted people in the forest is very small, these polluted people can always smell and trace the traces of food. For Manna Shadow Song and others. In the current situation, it is quite dangerous to encounter contaminated people, even if there are only a dozen of them. After all, forest monsters are much more vulnerable than those who are polluted, so the wooden sticks in the hands of these elves can harm each other.
"Maybe we should head to the next village, which at our current pace will only take an hour to get there! If the village's temple of nature is still intact, then we may be able to take refuge without worrying about these monsters! "It was the elven scout Nirna who spoke, and in fact he was not wrong, because this elven village Chen Kai they had passed by, and restored the natural temple in the village. It's just that when Mana Shadow Song and the others went to Teramis, they didn't take a detour because they were in a hurry. But this time they had to go, not only to save their lives but also to be able to rest. Because in the temple, Mana Shadow Song's situation may be slightly better.
"Okay! I guess I should be able to make it there! "Manna Shadow Song knows that the biggest problem in the whole team right now is herself, and her current state can be said to be very bad, if the team can't reach that village, then maybe it's because of her.
When the elves set off again, the corpses of the monsters not far from their feet had been slowly gnawed away by insects from under the vegetation. By the time they left, all the monster corpses had vanished as if they had never appeared.
While these elves were hurrying away, about three or four days away, a dozen huge monstrous dragons were acting as road openers, constantly crushing the ancient trees that had fallen on the road. Behind them, a huge army of demons and evil creatures was slowly moving forward, and the huge Barorfire Demon stepped on the ground with his feet, leaving burnt black footprints one after another.
In order not to be turned into charcoal by the footprints left by the fire demon. The younger brothers who followed behind the fire demon had to walk along both sides of the road, thus becoming the background behind the fire demon in disguise. The huge demon army was moving towards Terramis at least twice as fast as Mana Shadow Song and the others, as they didn't need to make a detour at all, and all the trees in front of them were razed.
Tens of kilometers behind these demon legions. Weimars followed the members of Nature's Punishment along the path opened up by the demons. Actually, this distance is very dangerous, but if they are too far away from the demons, they may be thrown off by each other. Weimars knew what the elven hero in front of him wanted to do, and he definitely wanted to kill these demons from behind when they attacked the ancient magical civilization and gain the favor of the other party.
However, he knew very well that although this idea was a bit of a pitfall, it was definitely a shortcut to gain the friendship of those ancient relics, and of course, it could also be killed in an instant by the same party who regarded it as a demon. After all, no one knew if those ancient remnants would directly reward a forbidden spell that exceeded the eleventh order after discovering these demon legions. Even Weimars might have seen the legendary twelve-level spells that only gods could use. After all, the legendary ancient magical civilization can capture the gods, and if they don't master such spells, how can they fight the gods.
It's just that there is no doubt that Weimars is definitely thinking too much, because if it is really an ancient magical civilization. Then there will be no eleventh and twelfth level spells at all, and they will capture all evil creatures and demons as research materials. Oh! No, most of the demons will definitely be killed, and most of the evil creatures will be captured and studied.
When Chen Kai's eyes slowly opened, a whole day had passed since the undead catastrophe that broke out in the City of Wind Chimes. There was no doubt that he slept very deadly, and not only him, but also the others, snoring almost all day. When they got up, the sound coming from her stomach made Chen Kai blush because there were at least a dozen elven girls and children around looking at her. Carefully withdrew his hand from Alyssa's arms, although Chen Kai missed the softness very much, but he didn't want to be hacked to death by Su Wan beside him with a firewood knife.
Fortunately, Chen Kai didn't do anything bad when Alyssa was lying beside him, otherwise Su Wan would definitely cut him down with a knife now, instead of glaring at him viciously with her eyes. Chen Kai's only thought of such a situation was depressed, and then he followed Su Wan's ass like a thief to the place where the bonfire was burning outside to eat. (To be continued......)
