Chapter 53: The Time of the Riot

Laura stared at the big hole in the ceiling in a daze, only to feel that she had no strength in her body. Fortunately, after the green ball of light flew out, the divine power in the main hall basically disappeared. It took her breath to regain her strength, then she stood up against the pillar and walked to the bottom of the big hole.

The light coming down from the hole turned green, and she realized that the ball of light wasn't far away. But outside is her royal capital, what does the god of nature mean by cleaning up the world?

At this moment, there was a muffled sound in the air, like a huge thunder striking nearby, and then there were many strange sounds outside, as if something was waking up, and like something was stirring. Then the ground beneath her feet shook violently for some reason, and she faintly heard the exclamations of someone outside.

Could it be that the disaster that the god of nature wants to bring to the continent is an earthquake?

When Laura saw that the hall was shaking too much, rubble and sand were falling from above, and if she didn't go out, she could be buried under the collapsed building at any time. She hurriedly pressed the short-distance teleportation ring on her hand, locked a trace of consciousness in the sky two hundred meters above, and then teleported out of the main hall with a flash of light.

Since this ring was used by her to save her life, it was naturally not so simple, and after the teleportation ended, the ring automatically applied flying and shield skills to her.

Laura was not a mage, and the transformation of space made her a little uncomfortable, and when she got used to the dizziness after teleportation, what unfolded in her eyes was an unimaginable scene.

The green ball of light floated in the air, emitting ripples outward. These ripples run along the ground and beyond the horizon.

All the trees that were swept by the ripples underwent strange changes, some trees simply lost their leaves and died, while others began to grow wildly, becoming taller and thicker. It seems that out of every dozen or so trees, the tallest and strongest one absorbs the energy of the other trees and then begins to change. The trunks of these trees began to fork, the branches began to bend, and the roots and branches grew limbs, breaking free from the ground and becoming tree people.

The smallest of these trees was three stories tall, and its limbs were extremely thick, and when it broke off the ground, it began to attack people and houses around it indiscriminately.

Laura knew about the Treants, and that was only seen in books about elves. In the past, elves liked to animate trees and turn them into powerful warriors and workers. However, the elves will only use this magic in a small area. And now, as far as Laura's eye can see, the city and outside the city are full of rioting tree people.

The most trees in the city were the great mansions of the aristocratic district, and a tree man rose from the courtyard of a nobleman, and the height of the mansion itself was larger. Its branches knotted together into two huge fists, and with a single fist, they struck the nobleman's house. It seems that the body of a tree is not as hard as a stone, but the body of the tree man catalyzed by the god of nature has a faint trace of divine power, making its body as steel and infinitely powerful. I saw the treeman's fist hit the house, and one of the walls and one of the roofs of the house collapsed. The house was full of panicked people running around. The Treant seemed to be aware of something, and he took a stride, punch after punch towards the crowded area. Wherever his giant fist, which was half the size of a room, hit, it was a mess, and if it hit someone, it would beat him to meat sauce on the spot.

It's not that no one launched a counterattack, the guards of those noble families, or the members of the nobility who know martial arts and magic, have launched attacks on the tree people, but the damage caused by the fighting spirit and magic on the tree people is limited, because their bodies are not critical, and often the stabbing and axe can't hurt their roots. Only a mid-level or higher master can actually hurt a treeman, cut off their hands and feet, or split their bodies. However, even then, they have to pay a price. Laura saw a warrior burst into battle and slash his sword into the treeman's body, but was slapped flat by the treeman because she couldn't pull out her sword in time.

Laura looked at her palace again, and saw that there were also seven or eight tree men wreaking havoc in the royal palace on the hill in the city. He saw a tree man punch through the roof of her dormitory, and one of her maids was lifted out and thrown down the hillside, and the poor maid was thrown on the top of a nobleman's tower and broken in two. However, after all, there were many guards in the palace, and there were also magicians stationed there, and dozens of mages flew out of the royal mage tower and began to cast magic on the treemen.

Fearing fire magic, the Treants were soon set on fire by the mage, but they fell to two rooms in the palace, spreading the flames and setting a palace on fire.

Although most of the Treants are wreaking havoc in the aristocratic districts, the things that appear in the slums are a little more terrifying than the Treants. Under the influence of the green divine light, the creatures such as cats, dogs, and mice that were so numerous in the civilian area also underwent terrifying mutations, and they began to swell in size, and at the same time gained amazing strength, cats and dogs became more than half a human tall, and rats were the size of four or five-year-old children. They grow sharp and sharp claws, attacking the humans around them, and the civilian quarters are densely populated and lacking the masters of the aristocratic districts. This fight caused by small animals quickly turned into a disaster.

Queen Laura even saw a lot of fur-clad monsters in the forest farther away, and began to storm the city walls. What could have been a wild boar, a hyena or a wolf is now a horrific killer.

Even from the great river that runs through the royal capital, there are many monsters that have evolved from fish, and they have begun to attack the boats in the river, and they have grown hands and legs, and they have climbed from the side of the ship to the deck, and they have begun to attack the sailors on the deck, and some have climbed onto land from the banks on both sides and attacked anyone they see.

Queen Laura stood in the air, not knowing what she should do to hold on to his royal capital. She also had a feeling in her heart that what was in front of her was not the most terrifying thing, because the ground had been shaking since she had just escaped from the hall, as if something was about to break through the ground.

Suddenly, she noticed that the boulders that made up the natural temple of the royal capital seemed to be a little taller, and the vines on them became thicker and denser, wrapping them in a tight green. Then, a boulder actually rose from the ground under the traction of vines, and the temple building built next to this boulder was slightly touched by it, and nearly half of it collapsed.

The boulder was affected by some great force, and the pieces rose up one by one, and they were put together to form a human form. A rock giant wrapped in vines stood in the middle of the royal capital.
