Chapter 52: The Man and the Tree......

I saw that the grimace-like face of the dryad in the flames had become a real demon, and the darkness in the three hollows of his eyes and mouth became heavier, producing a strong flow of attraction, and he actually sucked in the flames burning on the tree.

The dryad that had been lifted from its spontaneous combustion state reappeared in Zhou Yao's field of vision, but it was already significantly different from before.

The body of the dry tree trunk was charred and blackened after being burned by the flames, but it seemed to reflect a certain sentence and was rejuvenated.

Wildfires burn inexhaustibly, and spring breezes blow and regenerate.

The dryad who got rid of the flames confirmed this sentence, and the unbearable body shed its old skin and grew new skin, and in the blink of an eye, it was completely new, and it was more full of life than the original body.

All the burned vines also grew out of the gap, and they were not excited.

However, this was the beginning of the change in the Dryad, and the regeneration power comparable to that of the Dead Apostle brought the Dryad back to its best state, and then-

It's red, it's all red.

As if the anger was so angry that it could not be suppressed and welled up on his cheeks, the deep red replaced the original color of the dryad, and unlike when it was wrapped in flames, it did not cause damage to the dryad itself.

This was only the first step, and then the trunk of the tree that the dryad had turned red, its height and thickness had shrunk, and the trumpet vine whip had retracted into its body, and even the two huge vines were a lot shorter.

It is said that what is concentrated is the essence, and I don't know if this path can be applied to the dryad.

Zhou Yao didn't know, he only knew that the next step was the beginning of the show, and the Dryad had undergone changes and was no longer one-third of its original size, only about two meters tall.

The small vines in the constricted body came out of the roots of the tree again, weaving together to simulate the feet of a human.

Not only the feet, but also the two large vines turned into five-fingered palms after twisting and changing, and they clenched into fists and struck together.

In a short period of time, the Dryad completed the form change like a Transformer and entered the second form.

"Hey...... Not bad. ”

Zhou Yao, who had watched the transformation of the dryad throughout the whole process, muttered, and was ready for the next blow.

"Flying Flame!"

Before the dryad attacks. He was the first to attack, and the red flame wave struck out. The flames that opened its clutches struck the dryad, scattering and recreating the previous scene.

For plants, flame is the enemy. Just a spark can accomplish the feat of burning the prairie fire.

The previous attack on the Dryad was able to prove this.

However, after the change of form, the dryad made Zhou Yao miscalculate this time.

The flames still hit the dryad, as if they had been deliberately hit for the sake of demonstration.

The fierce sparks of true red climbed up the torso of the wood, but they did not burn, and after a while of reluctance, they dissipated without taking anything away.

"If you change your skin, you have fire resistance?! Very good. It's not fun if you don't! ”

The flying flame had no effect, and Zhou Yao rose up instead.

"Goo-goo-goo!"

The alternative and piercing cry was a declaration of war on behalf of the dryad, and it seemed that after the change, its attitude became more human, and it took the initiative to attack Zhou Yao.

And it's a melee attack.

It staggered and ran, but its speed was not slow, and it rolled up a cloud of smoke and dust on the ground and rushed towards Zhou Yao.

"Even the big tree is playing melee combat? Why do I feel like I want to laugh. ”

Obviously it should be a serious scene, Zhou Yao looked at the dryad's somewhat funny running posture, and couldn't help but almost laugh.

Big trees know martial arts, and no one can stop them!

Silently laughing, he raised his sword to greet the "presence" of the dryad.

Cross-cutting of the blade. Cut to the punch that the dryad threw at him.

The gold-iron attack, not only with the resistance to flames, but also the Dryad's defense against physical attacks has actually risen to a level.

I always feel that after withstanding the previous attack, I have evolved myself towards the two aspects of fire and physics......

But in any case, the dryad can confront Zhou Yao head-on.

And what Zhou Yao didn't expect was that the dryad actually knew a little martial arts, and the boxing he fought looked like that!

Zhou Yao really "fell into a big groove!" in his heart! "It almost came out of his mouth, and it's really like he said, Dashu can also do martial arts.

There is no way, who made the facts clearly unfold in front of his eyes. Zhou Yao suppressed his superfluous feelings. There is no other way.

So Zhou Yao and a big tree practiced martial arts, just like the competition between martial artists, you come and I fight with swords and fists.

It's nothing, if only two people were fighting. But replacing one of them with a tree means running away in the wrong direction.

No matter how you look at it, you feel a strong sense of disobedience. It's a level that I can't bear to look at.

"Ah...... I can't! ”

I don't know how many rounds I played. Zhou Yao was completely fed up, he let out a long cry like pouring out his emotions, and the hands of Yan both appeared above his head, and he couldn't help but say that he would fight the dryad instead.

Step by step, in a head-on collision with the hand of fire, the dryad took one step backward and one step later.

Zhou Yao saw that the opportunity was ripe. directly opened a big move.

One of the seven forms he had never used in actual combat - judgment!

"Burn me to ashes under the flames of the Red Lotus!"

The erected Dian Sana slashed down from the top of his head, and in an instant, the flames of the red lotus erupted like a tsunami, condensing into a blade that magnified dozens of times and cut everything in a straight line.

Of course, the dryad did not escape this blow and was "convicted" by the convicted slash.

The surging red lotus flames were surging more than ever, and the ground in front of Zhou Yao was cut in half, extending out a long path of flame. It is inferred that there are at least twenty or thirty meters.

The Dryad was drowned again in the flames, and even though it had the resistance to strengthen the dual attributes of flame and physics, it could not resist Zhou Yao's conviction blow.

A combined fire and physical attack slices the dryad in half.

"Ah, a little overdone."

Seeing that the trail of flames that extended out had a tendency to ignite the forest, Zhou Yao stuck out his tongue.

He won't put out fires, but the base has been prepared.

Dark clouds gathered over the area covered in flames, followed by a torrential downpour.

It seems to be an automatically set magic array that covers the entire large forest, and after sensing the fire here, it activates the rain magic.

"Goo-Goo......

"Not dead yet? It's really small enough. ”

After heavy rain, the flame was extinguished. The dryad, which had been cut in half, made an intermittent sound, and it had a tendency to regenerate automatically.

This time it was much more serious, and it would have been almost fatal if it had been human.

Zhou Yao suddenly sensed that something seemed to flow through the ground under his feet, gathering in the direction of the dryad.

Trial!

Curious, Zhou Yao summoned the Eye of Judgment.

"I see, no wonder ......"

Under the probe of the Judgment, he saw the energy of life flowing from the roots of the nearby trees, carrying along the land towards the dryad.

In the process of transporting, the trees that exported life energy withered and died with visible wilts.

"So you're the master of this inherent enchantment, but didn't you say it's sealed?"

After figuring out the identity of the dryad, Zhou Yao had another question.

"It'...... It's been sealed all along, and we're only here just in case we're guarding the stone tablet that sealed it. But...... But I don't know why the stele was broken, so ......"

Hearing Zhou Yao's words, the two survivors kindly explained. At the same time, the tone became much more respectful.

Although Zhou Yao is a freshman in the academy, his strength makes the two admire, and they are very grateful to him for his rescue.

"I see."

Zhou Yao nodded and looked back at the regenerating dryad.

"What to do? You can destroy it, but the consequences will be great. ”

The Dryad can regenerate with the help of trees in the forest, and will remain immortal as long as there are trees in it.

But on the other hand, if you just burn it along with the entire forest, you will solve the problem.

Unfortunately, the achievement rate of this method is infinitely close to zero.

It's not that Zhou Yao doesn't have the strength to do it, as long as he has a few fires to extinguish it.

But now there are thousands of new people in the forest. The destruction of forests inevitably hurts innocents.

"Someone has already gone back to report the situation, as long as Captain Zhang and Adjutant Li come over, they can continue to seal it."

As if seeing Zhou Yao's hesitation, the surviving base members spoke.

"That's a lot easier, just drag it out for a while."

He leaned sideways and raised his knife to his front fingers, his other hand resting on the blade, his gaze focused on the dryad's healed torso, to be exact.

"Let's use you to practice your moves......"

The reinforcement circuit instantly spread all over his feet, and then Zhou Yao moved, and he moved very quickly, keeping the posture of his body in the most perfect state, and bursting out with the strongest and most extreme speed he could achieve.

The two surviving people at the scene didn't know what was going on at all, they just closed their eyelids, and Zhou Yao moved a distance like a teleporter.

It's still the same posture, but the difference is that Zhou Yao is less than two steps away from the dryad.

Tooth protrusion!

Zhou Yao gave this trick a similar name.

Like a sharp tooth assault, the sword in his hand pierced through the air, stabbing out along a straight and sharp trajectory.

The dryad that had not yet regenerated did not react to Zhou Yao's assault at all, and as soon as the regenerated hands tried to resist, the sword light broke through their defenses.

Hits, hits without a doubt.

The tip of the blade that tore through the air easily tore the dryad's outer skin and pierced through.

"The completion is not bad."

Zhou Yao was satisfied with the result and continued to attack the dryad.

Until Captain Zhang and the others arrived...... (To be continued.) )
