"I don't know... Maybe we'll have to go to the World Tree to find out, right? Geraint spread his hands and said helplessly.

"It has the breath of a demonic beast, be careful, and this guy is absolutely strong and terrifying, I can feel the power it has that makes everything in the world fearful." Mel suddenly said loudly to the crowd.

At this time, the group of five people had approached the top of the World Peak, and although there was still some distance, Mel had already sensed the great danger hidden from the top of the mountain.

Lambert noticed that Potter, who was still bouncing on his shoulder, had become very frightened, and buried his head in Lambert's package, revealing only half of his body, and even his body was shaking.

The higher the altitude, the more barren the scenery seen by Lambert and the others, and gradually, the snowflakes fell on the shoulders of Lambert and the others with the cold wind, and at this time, Lambert could not tell whether he felt an unknown dangerous aura or a simple chill.

As Lambert and the others approached the World Tree, more and more corpses appeared in front of them.

Geraint motioned for everyone to stop where they were, and stepped forward to check the situation, there was a huge black hole in the chest of the corpse in front of him, as if it had been directly penetrated by some kind of blunt object, and the blood of the corpse had been completely drained, and it looked like it had been dead for a while. When he finished examining the corpses on the ground, he turned back to the crowd and said with a serious face, "These are the prophets. ”

Mel came to Geraint, chanted a few spells, and began to use magic to examine the corpses of these prophets, and the result was not at all what she expected, these prophets were killed by a powerful demonic beast, Mel's magic could see what the dead on the ground saw five seconds before they died, and when she entered the memory of the last five seconds of the dead, what she saw made her immediately feel terrified to the extreme, she covered her head and couldn't help but scream, as if she had seen something very terrible.

Seeing this, Geraint immediately transmitted his demon hunter energy to Mel's body, helping Mel calm down.

Mel felt a warm current pass through her body, which calmed her mood, and she gasped for air, still looking very scared.

"Sister Mel? What do you see? Nicole stepped forward and patted Mel on the back and asked with concern.

"Dragon... A huge black dragon... My magic allows me to simultaneously sense the emotions of the deceased five seconds before his death, this guy was terrified to the extreme at the last moment before he died, this guy was killed by the dragon's claw through his body..."Although Mel's mood stabilized a lot, the scene she saw just now still made her unable to completely calm down.

"Judging from the wound of the deceased, he should have been poked to death by one of the dragon's fingernails, otherwise the wound would not be like this, and we can see that it is just a puddle of flesh, but we can also extrapolate from his wound, the size of this dragon must be at least thirty meters long. But no matter what, we have to check on the World Tree, so we must be careful on this trip. Lambert, you stay here with your two sisters, and I will go with you Sister Mel to see what is going on, and if we can't come back, you can run and tell His Majesty Richel III about the situation here. Geraint turned his head, put his hand on Lambert's shoulder, and said to Lambert with a serious expression.

"Brother Geraint, I'm going with you, we're one and we're going to die together." Lambert replied categorically.

"That's right, we'll go too." Nicole and Leah replied in unison.

"You... Ay... You are the hope of the future of the Ark Continent, you are still young, and you still have a great future, this trip is too dangerous, if you die here, it will be a pity..."Geraint's mood was very low, although he could understand the mood of Lambert and the others at this moment, but he also understood that judging from the huge power he felt from the top of the mountain, he must not be that guy's opponent.

"Obedient, Nicole, even if we are in danger, you can still go to President Erin, and she will find a way to save us or help us avenge us." Mel gently stroked Nicole's little head and whispered to Nicole.

"Nope! Sister Mel, I must come with you, I am now close to the strength of a super-grade magician, and I will definitely be able to help you! Nicole's expression was so determined that no words could move her again.

Mel saw that he couldn't persuade Nicole, so he shook his head, sighed and said, "Okay, no matter what, I will definitely protect you, remember, if we encounter a situation that we can't handle, the three of you will run away immediately, and Geraint and I will cover you." ”

"Got it, Sister Mel!" Nicole nodded and said firmly.

"Brother Geraint, Nicole is right, maybe the three of us can help you, even if I die here, it will be a well-deserved death, although there may be no way to fulfill Teacher Odin's last wish, but I believe that there will always be more outstanding demon hunters, and our humans in the Ark Continent will never lose to these demons and monsters." Lambert clenched his fists and hammered his chest, his expression resolute.

"Alright then, remember, you still have the heavy responsibility that Teacher Odin gave you, don't be too strong." Geraint finally changed his previous attitude and said to Lambert with a smile.

Now that everyone is unified, the answer after that is simple, everyone walks in the direction of the World Tree, and along the way, they see more and more corpses of the Prophet, and the surrounding environment makes them feel more and more creepy. When they were finally able to see the appearance of the World Tree, they were speechless by the sight they saw.

A black dragon coiled around the trunk of the World Tree, and judging by the glow from the trunk of the World Tree, the black dragon was sucking the life force of the World Tree. At this time, the World Tree was divided into two with the middle as the boundary, and the left half of the tree had withered, and although the other half still maintained its vigorous vitality, everyone also understood that in this case, it was only a matter of time before the remaining half of the Tree of Life completely withered.

Geraint is well aware of the seriousness of the problem, if the World Tree completely withers, then the entire continent of Ark will also collapse completely.
