Chapter 298: The Three Clans Begin (3)
I had already made up my mind to die, holding the knife in one hand and holding the other tightly in my arms.
Bai Ling knew what I wanted to do, and snuggled into my arms without the slightest struggle.
As soon as I opened my eyes, the three Dryads in front of me noticed my presence, let out a cry like night owls, and plunged their arm-like trunks into the ground.
Almost at the same time, countless tree roots sprang out from under my feet, whistling and wrapping around me!
Seeing this, I immediately pounced on the three tree demons in front of me, and slashed at the nearest tree demon with all my might!
Countless roots have been following me closely after they have emerged from the ground, and if I pause for a moment, I will be wrapped tightly in the roots.
Boom!
The knife in my hand slashed at the trunk of a tree, and the sound was like a steel knife deboning, and in an instant it cut off the nearest tree demon to me! The roots of the trees that chased me behind me were also reduced by a third in that instant.
However, my knife also made my body lag for a moment, just a moment's delay, and the roots behind me were already wrapped around my body, and I was wrapped tightly in an instant!
At that moment, I only felt that the heavens and the earth began to darken, and my breathing began to become difficult.
As soon as the roots of the trees were tightly wound, we began to look for holes to burrow.
It was uncomfortable and terrifying, but I couldn't do anything but let those ghosts squeeze into my ears and nostrils.
Although we were dying, Bai Ling didn't even snort.
Oh, it seems that Zhuge Jin also has a time when he misses.
He had clearly said that as long as we ran backwards with our eyes closed, we would be fine, but then the cabbage was cut out of the wound and died......
As soon as I complained to Zhuge Jin in my heart, I suddenly heard a noisy voice coming in from outside the cocoon, and then, the roots that were drilling into my ears and nostrils stopped moving, and then the roots that were entangled with us began to become weak.
After a while, I felt that someone was cutting down the roots of a tree that were wrapped around me, and soon Bai Ling and I saw the light of day again.
However, what I didn't expect was that it was not Cabbage and Yuan Liu who rescued us, nor Lao Hei and Zhuge Jin, but Yuan Shu and a group of blood-stained Jinwei!
Although there are a large number of those tree demons, they have a formation that can restrain the tree demons, and now there are dozens of brocade guards around us in a circle, as if those tree demons can't see us anymore, after a few circles outside the circle formed by those brocade guards, they return to the form of dead things.
Oh, it seems that Zhuge Jin's divination is really not wrong, although his life was hanging by a thread just now, but now, he has turned the danger into a disaster, hasn't he?
"Don't ask anything, listen to me first."
After rescuing us, Yuan Shu said very dryly, while stretching out his arm, and then without saying a word, he made a cut on his wrist and stretched it towards me.
"I know you won't believe me what I say now, but I still want to say that this time, we sincerely want to cooperate with you! Don't you have a causal puppet? Take one out and take a few drops of my blood! ”
As soon as I heard this, I was immediately confused.
What the heck? Yuan Shu, the chief of staff of the dignified Secret Service Department and one of the current prime ministers of the Protoss, actually ...... He can't be yin against me again, right?
As soon as this thought appeared in my mind, the other party directly tore open his clothes and exposed his chest.
"Don't worry, this time it's definitely not Yin you, Ruishi's almost immortal body everyone wants to have, but it's a pity that I'm not. We really need your strength this time! ”
Although the other party seems to be very sincere, and the sincerity shown is indeed enough, I am still a little puzzled.
They have so many people and so many supplies, and they also have a formation that can easily break through from this group of tree demons, why do they still come to us to cooperate? If they wanted to work together in the early days, why did they do that to us before? Or has something happened in the time we've escaped?
Sure enough, as soon as such an idea popped into my mind, the other party nodded at me.
"Yes, you guessed it right. Now due to the addition of the demons, a huge change has taken place in front of you! ”
As he spoke, Yuan Shu motioned for everyone to retreat, leaving only me, Bai Ling, and Lao Hei behind, and then continued to say to me: "Several of our important hall masters and deputy hall masters have now been trapped inside. Originally, with our current strength, it would not be difficult to rescue them, but the problem is ......"
Speaking of this, Yuan Shu turned his head to look at Lao Hei.
The meaning of that couldn't be clearer, their manpower should have been enough, but Lao Hei recruited the demons...... In front of them, several hall masters and deputy hall masters were restrained by the human race, and now there are demons who are stepping in sideways, and they are a little stretched to fight against two clans at the same time.
Originally, I didn't want to cooperate with the other party, after all, I am not a saint, he treated us like that before, left that scar on my body, and almost took the lives of me and Bai Ling!
If I don't get this account back, I can't cooperate with the other party for anything.
However, as soon as I had such a thought, the other party frowned.
"Yes, you almost planted it in our hands, but if we hadn't helped us just now, all of you would have to be planted in the hands of these tree demons! And hasn't the person who left the scar on your chest already been killed by you? What else are you not satisfied with? Now it's your people who have attracted the people of the demon race, if our god race suffers a heavy blow and collapses, who will suffer next, I think you know better than me in your heart, right? ”
I have to say that the other party's words seem to have some truth.
Gao Xia stabbed me in the chest, but later died at the hands of Bai Ling. If it weren't for them just now, we might indeed be more than lucky.
Therefore, hatred is really harmful, and even people like me, who are deeply influenced by Mohist thought, are almost blinded by hatred.
"Well, I hope you are sincere in cooperating with us this time."
Hearing my words, not only Yuan Shu, but even the frowning brow of the person surnamed Liu who was standing not far away also stretched a little.
However, when I found a puppet and wanted to pick up the blood dripping from Yuan Shu's hand, the man surnamed Liu suddenly came over and stopped me.
"Wait, we're showing full sincerity now, but you're ...... We can't gamble with the lives of senior leaders, can we? ”
Originally, I wanted to say that you don't like to gamble, and if you don't want to, you can leave us here.
But before I could say anything, Bai Ling had already taken the lead.
"Old Black, tell them about the formation of the Tree Demon and its weaknesses, their formation can indeed prevent the Tree Demon, but it can't fight against the Tree Demon at all. With our information, the demon side is equivalent to one less elite! If you exchange an elite of the demon clan with the life of a leader of the god race, no one will lose! ”
