Volume 1 The Fall of the King's Power Chapter 169 The Circle
Carter and Gail led the knights out of the muddy swamp with all their might, they didn't know what kind of danger this swamp still hid, just the huge toad that had just appeared made the team suffer a big loss, given this dangerous situation, it was better to stay away from this treacherous swamp as soon as possible.
Gail rode his horse and turned to look at Carter beside him and said, "It seems that we still need to go around in a big circle when we return, I don't know how many deviant animals are still in this swamp here!"
Carter looked at the dense woods in front of him, and a sense of absurdity appeared in his heart, and replied: "This matter is really puzzling, what kind of world is the abyss, just the teleportation circle can make so many animals mutate, just thinking about it makes my scalp tingle." ”
Gail smiled helplessly, he was also one of the culprits.
If it weren't for finding this magical badge on the battlefield, the Abyss Lord wouldn't have discovered his existence, wouldn't have made an evil deal with him, and wouldn't have led to such a tragic end for the Snow Tribe!
Gail stole a glance at Carter beside him, and he always had a doubt in his mind that this badge was actually captured while cleaning up the battlefield.
Since he is the victor on the battlefield, of course there will be a loser, and he clearly remembers that the noble family crest on the banner of the squad defeated by the tribe's army is the Paul family!
Gail didn't know if this was a coincidence or a fact, he only hoped that he could use the power of Russell and his men to protect the remaining members of the Snow Tribe.
Gail doesn't know what will happen in the future, the most important thing now is to rely on himself to lead the tribe's people to tide over the difficulties!
Just as he was distracted, Carter's surprise shout rang out in his ears, "Gail, look! We've arrived at the location of the circle!"
Gail didn't know if Carter had noticed his anomaly, and in order to disguise his behavior, Gail hurriedly looked in the direction Carter was pointing, and sure enough, a corner of the circle was revealed at the edge of the woods.
Unlike what they had estimated, the size of the circle was not too large, probably about the size of a table for a banquet.
The circle was not very elaborately built, there were only some sparse stones emitting a faint red light on it, and some runes painted from unknown materials.
Even if the circle looks very chaotic, the stones that are the cornerstones still emit light, which proves that the circle is indeed still running.
If the circle is destroyed, then Lord Edward will not be able to continue to operate in this world.
It's just that the road here is difficult to walk, and there seem to be knotted roots everywhere, and the branches of the ancient trees are luxuriant, and according to Carter's eyes, the thinnest of these giant trees that surround the magic circle can only be surrounded by three people.
Strangely, there are a few big trees near these giant trees, but their thickness is not as exaggerated as these giant trees, is it because the fertility of the land here is too good?
The circle is hidden in the middle of these giant trees, and the branches and leaves of the giant trees block the way forward, and it seems that the knights can only dismount and use the knight's sword to cut down these natural barricades.
The knights dismounted from their horses at Carter's orders, and with their swords in hand, they went to cut down branches as thick as their forearms.
Carter suddenly felt the ground shake, but he couldn't confirm the accuracy of this feeling, was it his own delusion?
Carter asked Gail, who was beside him, "Gail, did you feel the ground shake just now?"
Gail looked incredulous and said, "So you also felt the shaking, I thought I was too nervous, and I had a delusion!"
Several knights around them heard their conversation, and quickly said that they also felt a faint vibration on the ground.
Since these people all felt the movement on the ground, this was not his delusion!
Carter hurriedly turned his head and shouted to the knight who was opening the way in front of him, "Retreat!
When the knights heard the commander's warning, they were slightly stunned and didn't know what was going on, and a few of them reacted quickly, and the knights sensed that something was wrong with the situation, and immediately turned around and hurriedly ran towards the team.
But it was too late, and the ground began to roar, and the branches and fallen leaves piled up on the soil were falling to the ground with a tremor, and it was as if an earthquake had whirled, and everyone was shocked.
The horses felt a fierce sense of crisis and kept kicking their legs and neighing, if it weren't for the knights tightly controlling their horses, I am afraid that a tragic accident would have happened here.
The giant trees that could not be seen at the top suddenly began to shake violently, and they began to wave their branches as if they had turned into animals.
"The giant tree is alive, alive!"
Some nervous knights couldn't help but exclaim in surprise when they saw this strange scene.
The giant trees really moved, and their branches seemed to turn into countless whips that swung and swung continuously, making a piercing sound of breaking through the air.
A large number of leaves fluttered in front of the knights' eyes as the giant tree waved, instantly obscuring their vision.
The knights who cut down the branches and leaves were the first to be attacked by the giant tree, and they threw the branches around their bodies, easily tying the knights together.
These knights who were bound by branches still had the strength to cut these branches with the knight's sword in their hand, but unfortunately these were not ordinary branches, and the sharp knight's sword could only leave a white scratch on it.
Carter looked anxiously at the knight who was swept up by the giant tree, but he could only stare helplessly.
