Chapter 239: The Grumpy Forest
The War Ancient Tree, the natural ally and powerful weapon of the elves, after the Tree of Life is transferred to the final state, it may gradually become larger, more tenacious, and have more exaggerated power under the influence of the Life Tree.
"What's going on with that ancient tree of war, is there an invasion of foreign enemies?"
Wang Yu frowned and asked the elven forest ranger, no matter what, the war ancient tree should be no different from the normal big tree without the control of the elves, what is the situation of this war ancient tree that is running rampant now.
"No...... Guys, that's what I'm telling you, the reason why Leahim hasn't welcomed outsiders recently, the Forest of Origin has been unusually irritable lately, and we've already had a guess about who is responsible for all this, so we've closed Leahim for the time being. ”
The Elven Ranger explained the reason solemnly, then patted the peregrine falcon on his shoulder, and motioned for the elven boy Robin to return to the elven capital of Leahim on his own.
The peregrine falcon flapped its wings and flew up, hovering over the heads of several people, while the elven ranger earnestly informed Wang Yu of his next intentions.
"Follow Robin into Leahim, I must go and settle this ancient tree of war, no matter what, they are allies of our elves, and we can't let it go like this."
Zige looked at the ancient war trees in the distance that kept waving their thick wooden arms and smashing everything around them, with a hint of thought in his eyes, and then gave Wang Yu a look, Wang Yu understood.
"Mr. Ranger, please let us help you, with our strength, we should be able to help you a little."
Ziggy said with a smile, and Wang Yu nodded in agreement.
“……”
The forest ranger was silent for a few seconds, sensing the situation of several people, Wang Yu and Zigna's exuberant vitality that he did not deliberately conceal let the elf forest ranger know that the strength of these two guests was probably not weaker or even stronger than him, and they could indeed help.
"Then thank you for your help, you will be friends of the elves, my name is Crane, please help me create an opportunity."
The elves rarely had the polite words of humans, and there was no reason to refuse, so the elven ranger Crane immediately accepted the proposal of several people.
"Robin, you go back first, and if you run into other rangers rushing here on the way, inform them of the situation here."
Crane shouted to the peregrine falcon hovering above, and after the peregrine falcon chirped in understanding, it stopped hovering and flew in the direction of Leahim in the Forest of Origin.
"Go this way, watch out for the boulders smashed by the War Giant Tree, these tree spirits who grew up in the Forest of Origin have a natural vision of the forest within a certain range, and our proximity cannot be hidden."
Crane put the oak longbow behind his back, pulled out a curved-bladed short knife from his waist, held it in his right hand, and quickly shuttled over the trees in the forest, and motioned for Wang Yu and the others to follow.
Wang Yu and Ziegy easily walked on the forest ground with their strong physical fitness, while Avia summoned a strong wind and led Noelle to follow Wang Yu and them towards the Ancient War Tree.
"Whew!"
As if to confirm Crane's statement, when a few people were within 100 meters of the War Ancient Tree, a huge rock was abruptly lifted from under the ground by the War Ancient Tree, raised above their heads with their thick giant arms, and then suddenly threw it towards Wang Yu and them.
Probably due to the factor of talent, the huge and heavy boulder, the ancient tree of war threw it with extraordinary precision, and the high-speed flying boulder reached the top of everyone's heads in a parabolic trajectory very quickly, and then fell down under the action of gravity.
"Be careful of the tree species in the boulder, those things will attack us, don't be slowed down by them, we will be hit."
Crane screamed to remind those present, telling them to avoid the boulder while being careful of what the boulder was carrying, and he quickly avoided the side and avoided the falling boulder in advance.
Wang Yu and Ziggy had already prepared to dodge, and under Crane's reminder, the two of them paid close attention to the boulder that took off, only to find that on the irregularly shaped boulder, there were still a lot of green vines entwined around it, covering the surface of the boulder.
Raising his hand to signal Avia behind him, Wang Yu and the professor accelerated a few times, easily breaking away from the range covered by the falling boulder.
"Boom!"
The boulder fell to the ground, crushing a large number of trees and kicking up a cloud of dust, and the huge rock cracked after hitting the ground, and the vines that wrapped around the rock, and what was connected to the inside of the boulder was revealed after the boulder broke.
It was a miniature tree spirit embedded in the rock, small arms and legs, looking like small wooden piers with hands and feet, these mini tree spirits jumped out of the boulder, looking a little clumsy, but the rapid swinging legs and feet made them have a high speed.
They quickly rush towards the life around them, a force of life brewing within their bodies, and once they get close to their target, these little dryads will quickly explode into a mass of vines that will be entangled by their attackers.
Crane had already clenched the scit-bladed dagger in his hand, and the magic power was gathering in it, wary of the large number of small tree spirits that were approaching, and once they were entangled, it would be troublesome to avoid the bombardment of the boulder.
"Whew!"
However, in the next moment, before the large number of small tree spirits could rush out of the boulder fragments, a scorching wave of flames had already tumbled past the place where the boulder had fallen.
The raging waves burned the little tree spirits into pieces of charred charcoal in an instant, and fell to the ground and scattered into ashes.
Evia made a move, the third-order spell - Blazing Tide, to deal with these small tree spirits that are numerous in number, but they are also fragile and flammable wood, and the fire magic with a wide coverage is really very useful.
Crane was stunned for a moment, then reacted, gestured to everyone, and then continued to quickly approach the direction of the Ancient War Tree, not thinking that with the help of everyone, it would be so easy to move forward.
"Boom!"
The boulder fell several more times, but each time it hit the ground, it was instantly cleaned by Avia's fire magic, and the fast-moving, very haunting little tree spirits inside did not play any role at all, allowing several people to quickly get close to the ancient tree of war.
"Boom ......"
When a few people approached the ancient war tree for about ten meters, the ancient war tree, which had been standing in place and digging out boulders from the surrounding ground with its root system, smashed at everyone, moved, and the legs turned into roots stepped on the ground, causing the surrounding ground to shake under the action of the huge weight.
The speed of the War Ancient Tree is not fast, but with the blessing of its body size of ten meters and nearly twenty meters tall, it can step a long distance with every step, even if it is relatively slow, it can quickly rush towards everyone.
Wang Yu noticed that on the legs of the War Giant Tree, which were made up of roots, there was a large amount of bright red blood, and even some cracked minced flesh.
As it progressed, it left two bloody trails on the ground, and the source of the blood and minced flesh was the mass of animal carcasses that had previously been in the location of the War Tree.
"It's grumpy enough, what's going on......"
Wang Yu pondered in his heart the reason why this big tree man had become so brutal.
"Beware of dodging, the power of the Ancient Tree of War is not something we can compete with, I need to bring the branches of this Tree of Life to the Tree of War close to its core, so that it can come to its senses."
Crane reminded everyone, pulled out a branch with a strong vitality and a new sprout from his backpack, jumped to the top of the big tree, and looked at the ancient war tree approaching this way.
The core of the Ancient War Tree, the center of the dense foliage branches on the top of its torso that it looked indistinguishable from the Great Tree, to bring the branches of the Living Tree to its core, meant that Crane had to jump near the top of the Ancient War Tree, and it was obviously extremely dangerous to be so close to a being with great power.
"Let me and Avia hold this guy for a while, and teach you to help Crane get to its core."
Wang Yu spoke up, set the next action, the power of the chariot was launched, the girl opened the space crack with a tacit understanding, and the alchemy metal stored in it fell out, and then it was immediately controlled and controlled by Wang Yu, softened and climbed on Wang Yu's body, and then shaped and hardened.
In just a few seconds, Wang Yu had been covered by an unusually thick set of iron armor, and turned into a heavily armored warrior, and his body looked huge more than a circle.
"Be careful, the power of the War Giant Tree is very exaggerated, and the strength of the Peak Great Knight can't compete with it."
Watching Wang Yu, who was heavily covered, charging towards the huge war ancient tree without hesitation, Crane was dumbfounded, how could this guy be so reckless, could it be that this guy who was covered with heavy armor wanted to wrestle with the war ancient tree.
Accustomed to the elves' flexible and deadly wandering combat skills, Crane couldn't understand Wang Yu's simple and staggering fighting style for a while, but it was normal.
"No problem, just trust him, you get ready, wait for me to throw you up."
Ziggy walked over to the tree where Crane was, reassured the surprised Elven Ranger, and crouched down, put his hand on the ground, and motioned for Crane to step on it.
"Peng!"
The ancient tree of war naturally did not show mercy to Wang Yu who rushed towards him, and the huge wooden fist raised high smashed towards Wang Yu.
Wang Yu, who was more than three meters tall after being covered with heavy iron armor, was still a small person in front of the ancient tree of war.
The fist, which was several times larger than Wang Yu's body, smashed down quickly, directly hitting his body head-on, the ground shook violently, and the earth and gravel were shaken into the air by this powerful earth-shaking smash, falling like rain, and Wang Yu's figure disappeared directly.
“!”
Crane's pupils shrank suddenly, he was really shocked, he knew Wang Yumang, but he didn't expect this guy to rush up and eat the ancient tree of war punch like this, and indeed as Crane expected, he couldn't fight with the ancient tree of war at all, this punch directly smashed it flat?!
But the next moment, Crane knew that Wang Yu didn't go up to die, and the ancient tree of war smashed its fist on the ground, blasting out a huge dirt pit, and when he tried to retract his fist, he found that something stuck his fist on the ground.
With the exaggerated power of its huge size, the War Giant Tree was unable to retract its fist for a while.
And the initiator of all this is naturally Wang Yu, who was smashed into the ground with a punch.
The strength of the war ancient tree is greater than him, I don't know how much, this is natural, after all, the size is poor, and Wang Yu can't be stronger than it.
However, great strength does not mean that it hurts the feet, if the body is padded with a hard metal ground, Wang Yu is estimated to become a meat patty after this slap, but this is a forest, and the hardness of the soil is just that.
No matter how powerful the ancient tree of war is, the fist is also wooden, and a punch is firmly smashed on Wang Yu's body, and the frontal impact is resisted by the hard and heavy armor covering the whole body, and the follow-up force is only four or five meters into the ground, and Wang Yu at this moment is almost unharmed.
And he was smashed into the ground, directly driving the power of the chariot, full of ability, all the surrounding dirt and rocks were under the radiation of his body by his commander, towards the fist of the ancient war tree smashed into the ground, wrapped around it, dragged violently, and the huge force actually successfully competed with the ancient tree of war in a short period of time.
"Woo......"
With a strange sound, the Ancient Tree of War raised its other fist and was about to smash it down on something wrapped around its arm, but the massive hand of earth and stone that suddenly rose from the ground grabbed its other arm and stopped it from moving.
Evia's spell was already ready, and it was released at this moment, the fourth-order spell - Earth Fist, the huge rock arm formed by enriching the earth element under the sufficient supply of magic power, and Wang Yu, who was fully equipped with the power of the chariot, temporarily sealed both arms of the ancient tree of war, making it unable to move for a while.
"Are you ready, up!"
Ziggy confirmed to Crane that he was ready with one foot in his palm, then quickly raised his arms and threw Crane out of the way from the stomp on top of him.
With the help of the power of Zig, the Elven Ranger deftly sprang up and flew towards the heart of the Ancient War Tree.
Turning over in the air, Crane pulled out the oak longbow behind his back, put the branches of the Tree of Life on the bowstring, pulled it full, closed one eye, and with extremely strong vision, he passed through the layers of branches and leaves above the head of the ancient tree of war, aiming at the core of the ancient tree located in it.
"Listen to the wind and whisper ......"
Reciting incantations in Elven language, the Whispers of Nature, the Breeze Trail, attached a layer of breeze swirls around the branches of the Tree of Life, which are arrows.
The bowstring straightened suddenly, the power poured over the arrow, and the branches of the Living Tree that surrounded the breeze shot out at a rapid pace, pointing straight at the core of the ancient tree.
The breeze was blowing, and the force was not strong, but the branches changed direction in a small amount in the air, without touching a trace of the dense and intricate branches and leaves of the ancient tree, which just hit the core of the ancient tree.
The breeze rises again, slowing down the speed of the branches and gently falling on the core of the ancient tree.
"Shalala......"
The core of the battle tree touched by the branches of the tree of life suddenly shook, and instead of wrestling with Wang Yu and Avia, he shook his body, and his legs that had been transformed into roots gradually pierced into the ground, sinking into the ground little by little.
Wang Yu and Avia naturally stopped binding the arms of the War Ancient Tree, and their arms were retracted and attached to the trunk, merging with the trunk as a whole.
The ancient tree of war, which had calmed down, was restored to a huge tree that looked nothing special under the gaze of everyone.
The elven ranger descended from the sky, rolled and unloaded, and looked at the heavily armored knight who crawled out from under the ground, and felt a little emotion in his heart, it was really smooth and a little unimaginable.
With a wry smile that was slightly self-deprecating, Crane shook his head
Compared to the nimble elven rangers, Wang Yu and Avia, who have stronger frontal combat capabilities, have completed a task that requires the cooperation of several elven rangers to complete with the strength of just two of them, and all he did was shoot out the branches of the tree of life with the help of Zig, which is really...
"This forest is a bit irritable."
The heavy armor fell from Wang Yu's body under the control of the power of the chariot, and Wang Yu looked at the traces left by the ancient tree of war, and smacked his lips.
There was still a lot of unwashed blood left on the trunk of the Great Tree of War, and the Ancient War Tree was not here before, and the trail left by its violent march through the forest was full of broken trees and broken rocks, a mess.
The word irritable is indeed very suitable for this forest at this moment.
