Chapter 252, the origin of the bracelet
Looking down from the sky, the entire black banyan forest had turned into a ruin at this time, and the surging negative energy shrouded the forest like a mist.
Ye Xun slowly descended from the air, and at his feet, there was a corpse of a tree man that had long since decayed, and his dim eyes seemed to show his unwillingness and resentment before he died.
Click!
Ye Xun walked forward, trampling on many treeman corpses along the way, and finally he came to the treeman elder.
At this moment, the other party was no longer as high-spirited as before, and the already sparse canopy of the tree had become more withered and dilapidated, and the rotten power licked his body, making it let out a wail.
"You won't end well, one day a natural disaster will punish you, and Hawke will avenge us. Elder Treeman said weakly.
Ye Xun's attack before, he lost the courage to survive, and the honor of the so-called child of nature was completely shattered, and now he only planned to say some cruel words to anger Ye Xun, so that he could die a happy death.
Ye Xun glanced at the other party silently, he was able to survive such a fierce attack, not because the other party was stronger, but because he deliberately showed mercy
The tree man in front of him obviously has a very high status, and Ye Xun wants to learn more information through the other party, including the grievances between Salom and the tree man, as well as the deployment of all the forces of the tree man in this battle.
"Don't rush to die, I didn't plan to kill you, let's get along. Ye Xun smiled wickedly as he spoke.
The Elder of the Tree Man trembled, and Ye Xun's gaze made him feel cold all over his body, but thinking of the evil deeds done by the other party, he said strongly. "Don't dream, you won't get any information from me. ”
"Don't be so full, I bet you'll eventually beg to tell me. Ye Xun stretched out his hand and carried the tree man to his shoulder, spread his wings and rushed into the sky, circled a few times, and chased in the direction where John and the others had fled.
Not long after Ye Xun left, from the other end of the forest, an army of green tree men rushed towards the battlefield with great momentum.
Hawke walked at the head of the line, behind him, the priesthood of the Church of Nature close behind, and when he saw the ruined battlefield, an irrepressible anger spread from the bottom of his heart.
Yes!
He roared, and the corrupted battlefields of negative energy and the dead Treant warriors all irritated his nerves.
"Who's doing it, who's doing it. Hawke shook his head, and the dense red canopy of natural energy surged, as if a flame was ignited.
Just as Hawke was angry and buried himself in search of clues, a male elf in leather armor and carrying a large bow approached.
This is a forest elf, close to nature, they chose to join the natural church as soon as the war began.
In the long years of war that followed, time proved to be the right choice, and under the protection of the Treants, they suffered almost no losses, and now many elven archers joined the battle team.
"Look at this, my lord. The elf reached out and handed Hawke the object he had found.
It was a fiery red dragon scale, blessed by the fire element, and until this time, the surface still exuded warmth, which John had inadvertently dropped during the battle
"It must have been the guys who had escaped and brought in the rescuers. Hawk said angrily.
In the recent raid, they captured seven dragons in one fell swoop and used them to conduct experiments on life worms.
Although several dragons fled at that time, Hawke did not take it to heart, even if the other party could really find rescuers, but in the face of sufficient defenses, he would not want to end the battle in a short time.
Once the two sides reach a stalemate, he will lead reinforcements to arrive quickly, thus eliminating the other side in one fell swoop.
However, it now seemed that it was completely his own delusion, the strength of the enemy was far beyond his imagination, and he could feel the smell of corruption in the air from all walks of life.
"What the hell is it that can cause so much damage? The elf wondered.
For these Tree Priests of the Church of Nature, he knew that not only were they born with strong physiques, but they were also blessed by nature, had an unparalleled lifespan, and were able to harness the power of nature to cause landslides and tsunamis.
The elves really couldn't imagine what kind of enemy they wanted, and in such a short time, they could wipe out so many treants, and they couldn't even leave a single living mouth.
Hawke looked around, and from time to time he picked up a handful of dirt and put it in front of his nose, and the rancid smell came from him, and he couldn't help but sneeze.
As the investigation deepened, Hawke's brows became tighter and tighter, and judging from the clues at the scene, he came to a fact that even he was afraid of.
"Dead Tree Bracelet, is this impossible?" Hawk didn't want to believe, but the truth told him that everything in front of him was true.
Looking at Hawke, who was talking to himself, the elf asked suspiciously. "What's wrong with you? Did you find something?"
"We went back immediately. Hawke stood up and walked back the way he came.
"Don't you chase it? Maybe you can catch up now. The elf was surprised by the other party's choice, and did not understand what was wrong with the grumpy leader in the past.
Glancing back at the other party, Hawke hesitated, but after thinking for a while, he still said. "I have more important things to tell the Prophet, a matter of life and death. ”
Leaving behind the elves for unknown reasons, Hawke led his army, carrying the corpses of the dead treemen and heading towards his stronghold.
At the same time, Ye Xun quickly caught up with the two of John, who had escaped, and after treating those injured dragons, the three of them did not dare to delay the time, and rushed back to Snow Mist Castle.
"Tell me, tell me everything you know, including the red demon in your mouth, and this Dead Tree Bracelet. ”
Ye Xun looked at the half-dead Tree Spirit Elder on the ground, and at this time, the other party was lying on the ground, with a painful expression on his face, as if he was enduring the most cruel punishment in the world.
The natural forces of the surrounding space were trying to heal his broken body, but it was blocked by a layer of decaying power, and the two opposing forces collided, causing the Treant to let out a wail.
But even so, he still held his head high and said hard. "I'm not going to tell you anything, you're dead. ”
Ye Xun was not angry, he just raised the dead tree ring in his hand, and the light flashed, and the corrupt power that shrouded the surface of the tree man's body suddenly surged, pouring into his body from all directions.
Yes!
Under Ye Xun's torture, the tree man wailed loudly, rolled on the ground in pain, and countless branches and leaves fell from above his body, and then turned into ashes.
"You don't have to be patient, it's over when you say it, in fact, I don't have any hostility towards you children of nature. Ye Xun looked at the other party and said.
"Hahaha, it seems that you don't know anything. Elder Treant said with a smile. "From the moment you picked up the bracelet, you and we are eternal enemies. ”
It turns out that the so-called Dead Tree Bracelet is the hand of Salom, and many years ago, this demon had hunted and killed the Tree People in order to obtain the power of natural life and make up for its own goodness.
He tricked an elven druid into creating an artifact that could cure chaos.
And the true face of the artifact is the dead tree bracelet made from the body of the tree man after death.
This powerful magic item carries the curse and resentment of the druid before his death, and whoever uses it will eventually be counterattacked.
Salom once used the bracelet to slaughter the Treants, but in the end, he did not escape his fate, and although he did not die, he was sealed for hundreds of years.
"Damn red-faced, I almost fell for you again. Ye Xun's face was a little ugly, and he secretly scolded the old ghost for not being authentic, and even wanted to harm him again.
"Now you should understand that you can't coexist with us. Elder Treant said. "And your results are doomed to be miserable. ”
Although he was indeed surprised in his heart, Ye Xun's face was not at all, as if nothing had happened.
"If you can't coexist, I'll remove and destroy you, and the so-called curse is not a big deal for me. Ye Xun glanced at the other party contemptuously and said. "Don't forget, I'm also a conqueror, and there's nothing I can't do before me. ”
