Chapter 133 Raid
It's not the first time Nereus and Agamemnon have seen a star chrysalis, and it's not the first time Nolan has seen a star chrysalis. But every time I see it, I feel shocked. The unexpected return of several followers also boosted Richard's confidence, and Richard eventually brought Nolan, Splash, Tiramisu, Mountain and Sea, Crimson, and forty Constructed Knights aboard the Star Chrysalis. The rest stayed behind to act with the army, which was commanded by Ellie.
The star chrysalis rose into the air, slowly reversed its direction, and flew away.
Now the speed of the star chrysalis when it is fully loaded is not fast, the speed is only fifty or sixty kilometers per hour. But its belly is already filled with high-energy beeswax made by worker bees, which can support it to fly for a month. And the flight of the star chrysalis is not at all affected by the terrain. In most of the day, the star chrysalis can directly reach Richard's predetermined target. Richard's large force will advance as originally planned, and will not change direction until two days later.
The star chrysalis flew at an altitude of 100 meters, and after more than ten hours, a huge canopy finally appeared on the horizon in front of it, and the canopy hundreds of meters high was far above the level of the forest sea, which was extremely eye-catching. A few kilometers away, the guardian elves of this tribe noticed the arrival of the star chrysalis, and the shrill whistle in the forest came and went, and many hunters jumped onto the canopy to guard the defense.
Richard's eyes were extremely poisonous at the moment, and he had already seen that the defenses of this tribe called the Storm Tree were empty, and the hunters couldn't even hide their panic. It is a late-stage Tree of Life, but the number of Hunters guarding it is far from matching the Tree of Life. This situation confirmed Richard's suspicion that the main forces of the tribe had been withdrawn, and the tribe was in a state of extreme emptiness.
Standing on top of the star chrysalis, Richard first looked back and saw a group of murderous followers. Looking to the left and right, the knights in the costume are also full of murderous energy. Raya, who led the team, was already qualified to become a follower of Richard due to her breakthrough in the Sanctuary. It's just that his combat power is still very immature compared to the older group of followers. With such strength, it is enough to bulldoze a well-guarded tribe, not to mention that the opponent's elite warriors have been exhausted?
A kilometer away from the Living Tree, the star chrysalis lowers in height and levitates low in the air that can be brushed against the canopy. Richard jumped down first, and his followers jumped off one after another. The Constructed Knights first stepped on the Magic Rider before jumping off with their mounts. The earth continued to roar, and the impact of the heavy constructed knight falling from a height of tens of meters was undoubtedly huge, but it was not comparable to the ogre's mighty momentum. To Richard's surprise, the impact of the falling mountains and seas was even greater than that of a gigantic ogre, making him unsteady on his feet.
Several War Tree Men rushed from the direction of the Tree of Life, they were the only remaining heavy defense force in the tribe, and the War Tree had long since been transferred to the Forest Camp. Dozens of Patron Elves followed the War Treants.
Richard ordered his followers to intercept the War Tree first, while he habitually assembled knights and formed formations, ready to deliver a fatal blow to his opponent. The speed of Richard's entire team was superb, but when the battle formation of the assembled knights had just taken shape, there was a chaotic sound behind him!
Richard knew something was wrong, and suddenly turned around, and sure enough, the terrible guys such as Ogre, Crimson, and Splash had chopped up all the War Tree Men and were pounced on the guardian elves behind him.
"Leave me some!" Richard wanted to roar, but wisely took it back. There are only dozens of guardian elves, where can they withstand them to kill? By the time he finished shouting, the battle would have already ended.
When Richard and the Constructed Knights arrived at the foot of the Living Tree, the Followers had already killed a man up and down the tree.
Richard opened his mouth, but was silent, it turned out that his task was to line up the Constructed Knights.
According to the normal size, the Storm Giant Tree Tribe should have about 2,000 or so clansmen, and the warriors who went out on the expedition were not counted. But Richard counted and found that the elves in the tribe were only in their early nine hundreds. After questioning, Richard learned that the tribal elders had taken about a thousand old and weak elves not long ago, and they didn't know where to go.
Richard's heart moved slightly, and he thought, "Could it be that all those missing guardian elves have become mutant elves?"
If this speculation is true, then there is some interest. Richard will face not only tens of thousands of guardian elf hunters, but also tens of thousands of mutant elves. Fortunately, the mutant elves are like beasts that only act on instinct, and no matter how many opponents there are, Richard is not afraid.
Next, the Constructed Knights finally came in handy. They were tasked with driving the surviving Storm Tree Elves together and keeping them in check. Richard and his followers began to harvest the Tree of Life. The consciousness of the tree of life communicated with Richard and wanted to ask for mercy. But Richard didn't intend to give it another chance, but to harvest it directly.
A few hours later, the divided heart of the tree of life was swallowed by the star chrysalis, and the young leaves, fruits, and a large number of branches, and even the roots were loaded into the star chrysalis's storage space. The storeroom of the Storm Tree was also ransacked. The most valuable collection of the Guardian Elven Tribe is undoubtedly the special longbow and the natural scepter, followed by many rare medicinal herbs unique to the Green Forest Plane.
Richard watched as all the Constructed Knights were on the star chrysalis, and he climbed up to it. The star chrysalis rose into the air and flew towards the Misty Rain Forest Tribe a thousand kilometers away.
After a long flight of twenty hours, the star chrysalis finally arrived in the Misty Rain Forest. The Misty Rain Forest is a relatively small tribe, with about 1,500 elves in the tribe, and the tribe's elite warriors are also emptied. Next, Richard's followers spent a few minutes settling the entire battle, again leaving no room for Richard to play. This time Richard was smart, and he didn't bother to reorganize the formation.
The Misty Rain Forest was the original destination of Richard's army. After harvesting the Tree of Life, the Star Chrysalis took off again and flew towards the Forest Wind Tribe, the last target of Richard's sortie.
By this time it had reached the appointed time, so Richard's army began to turn and take aim at the Forest Wind Tribe. In this way, it deviated from the location of the forest camp. The forest camp would need to move hundreds of kilometers to intercept it in front of Richard's army. Moreover, it will take at least two days for the forest camp to take root and the war tree people will recover. And by the time the news of Richard's army changing direction reached the forest camp, it was already a day later.
There are many strong people in Richard's army at this moment, and there are also powerhouses like Asiris, who are at the level of the Heavenly Sacred Domain. The Guardian Elves want to scout nearby, but they can only rely on their lives to fill it. Therefore, most of them chose to hide in advance on the advance route of Richard's army and observe the movement from a distance. Anyway, the momentum of Richard's army was so amazing that it could be heard and seen from several kilometers away. As a result, this time, the guardian elf hunter in charge of reconnaissance couldn't wait for Richard's army, so he had to go out to reconnoitre, only to find that the army had turned.
After receiving the news, the forest camp fell silent again.
The black-robed man pointed at the guardian elf who reported the news, and directly burned him into ashes with black fire, which slightly vented the anger in his heart. The magical image clearly marked the location and route of Richard's army at this moment. According to the new route of march, the forest camp was only able to drive the generals to the front, but did not have enough time to take root and restore the strength of the war tree.
The forest camp in its intact state was not sure that it would be able to repel Richard's army, wouldn't the forest camp in the mobile state be sent to death? All the guardian elf elders were silent, and the black-robed man seemed to be thinking. But everyone knows that there is no solution to this problem.
What they refused to admit was that Richard waved his army into Lin Hai's first battle, which really scared them. The battle between the two sides seemed to be evenly matched, but the end result was a complete victory for Richard. At this time, the newly born Golden World Tree in the distance, as well as the tremendous advance of Richard's army, were like a slap in the face, and they were being slapped the dignity of the black-robed man and the World Tree.
From the nascent stage, the World Tree can actually grow in the form of a Living Tree until it grows to the late stage of the complete body, and then transforms into the World Tree. The same goes for the Golden World Tree. The advantage of this is that the Living Tree does not attract the attention of many powerful beings in the plane, and once the World Tree appears, almost the powerful life of the entire plane will receive the message.
Using his own blood as a guide, Richard fully inspired the seeds of the Golden World Tree. This is the secret method of the Silver Moon Elves, so that when the Golden World Tree grows, it will be inextricably linked to Richard, and the seed can be transformed into the World Tree from the beginning, and grow all the way in the way of the World Tree. Such a Golden World Tree, because it skipped the stage of the Living Tree, is far more powerful than the normal World Tree, but it can no longer move.
An immovable Golden World Tree, from the moment it was born, was the most powerful provocation to the existing World Tree. Its breath permeated the plane, as if to say: I am right here, do you dare to come?
It's just that now the black-robed man needs to face is not whether to attack the Golden World Tree, but that Richard has already hit the door, can he dare to fight to the death?
"Let's transform some more guardian elves!" As soon as the black-robed man's words came out, he saw that a group of guardian elf elders had changed color, and even the Great Elder of Twilight spoke out against it. They know very well that the number of elves in the tribe is really not much, and in the thousands of elf tribes, it can be said that almost every elf is important, and it is related to whether the tribe can develop faster. If you turn your tribesmen into mutant elves, many tribes will be on the verge of extinction.
At this moment, several guardian elves suddenly rushed into the council hall, and looking at their panicked appearance, the elders were all deeply uneasy. When these elves said the news they had brought, the elders immediately exploded!
The Tree of Life of the three tribes of Storm Tree, Misty Rain Forest, and Forest Wind have all been destroyed?!
