The team moved forward again.

Under the powerful attack power of the fiery archers and poison blade assassins, and without even the hero's action, teams of bugs fell in front of the team.

Cleaned up of dozens more bugs, the team passed through a cloister.

Behind them appeared a swarm of bugs, mostly Zorasa Walkers, with their abdominal knuckles holding a piece of log or ore, and behind them were Zola Spikes hovering in the air.

The bugs line up and head deeper into the nest with a strong sense of purpose.

Lu Yuan quickly understood that these insects should have gone out to forage for food.

I don't know if it's used to feed the female worms, but it's done!

"Attack!" Lu Yuan ordered directly.

And the insects also hissed when they saw them, the intruders, and pounced.

Ten minutes later, the battle was over, and there was a pile of bug corpses lying on the ground.

Lu Yuan soon discovered something of interest.

He tore aside a log that had been apparently gnawed by insects, revealing a rock underneath.

The stones are interspersed with translucent olive-green gemstones.

This is....... Peridot Raw Ore!

Lu Yuan looked for it and found five rough stones on the corpses of these insects, which were obviously not found by accident by these insects in the wild.

It is likely that there is a hidden peridot mine in the vicinity.

Teresa apparently also noticed Lu Yuan's discovery and walked over.

"My lord, as far as I know, the Extreme Fire Alliance does not control the peridot veins."

Lu Yuan bowed slightly, it seems that this is a hidden ore vein, and no one has mined it for the time being.

He was immediately overjoyed in his heart, peridot is a 3-star material, and its value is extremely high, if it can occupy this vein.

Then the Absolute Cloud Collar will be able to have another stable income in addition to the black iron suit trade.

When he conquered this ruin, he must send troops to find the ore vein.

The team soon moved on.

"My lord, there is a battle ahead." A poison-bladed assassin reported to Lu Yuan.

Fight?

It's already deep into the hive, and what's going to be fighting these bugs?

Lu Yuan ordered all the staff to be on alert and slowly moved forward.

Lu Yuan also heard the sound, and walked forward for another hundred meters, out of the scope of the building.

There was a scene in front of him that shocked everyone.

In the center of the building in front of it, there is an extremely large giant tree, the trunk of which needs to be surrounded by twenty or thirty people goes straight to the sky, and its branches and leaves are covering the sky, stretching for thousands of meters, forming a canopy that covers the sky and the sun.

And around this huge elven ancient tree, a little bit of life energy shone with emerald green brilliance, just like a green elf surrounded the elven ancient tree.

But on the periphery, there are I don't know how many insects are densely gathered.

The Zola Shawalker and the Zola Spike were densely packed around the perimeter of the Elven Ancient Tree like an ant colony.

Looking at the big tree that covered the sky and the sun, the tip of Lu Yuan's nose smelled an attractive aroma.

The smell seems to be absent, but it seems to go straight to the soul, tugging at people's heartstrings, and making people want to get it desperately!

Hundreds of Zola Destroyers rushed towards the tree with their slender knuckles, their bellies rapidly expanding, apparently a sign that they were about to explode.

But before these intractable insects could rush to the tree, the dense branches of the elven tree had turned into spears, piercing the Zola Destroyer in an instant, and nailing them to the ground with ease.

The twigs on the branches of the trees instantly pierced the bodies of these insects, ending their lives.

But there were still a dozen Zola Destroyers who broke through the encirclement and rushed to the main trunk of the Elven Ancient Tree.

Their misshapen bellies swelled to the extreme.

The next moment, it exploded, smashing into the trunk of the elven ancient tree with fragments of flesh and blood.

In some places, the bark of the trees was torn open by the explosion, revealing the branches inside.

The huge branches and leaves of the Elven Ancient Tree swayed, and a little bit of life energy was absorbed from the land by it.

The wounds on its branches began to heal.

And more bugs continue to pound the Elven Ancient Tree.

This is the battlefield of giant trees and beetles!!

Lu Yuan's gaze fell on the elven ancient tree, and a line of information appeared.

【Elven Ancient Tree】

[Level: Boss LV33]

[Attack: 80]

[Defense: 50]

[HP: 12121/20000]

[Skill]: Ironwood Bark (★★★★★) Elven Ancient Tree has extremely strong defense, physical defense increased by 50%, magic defense increased by 30%

Energy Drain (★★★★) Elven Trees draw energy from the land.

Ancient Tree Branches(★★★★) Elven Ancient Trees can use branches to launch fierce attacks.

Golden Apple (★★★★★): The Elven Ancient Tree can give birth to golden apples with magical powers every once in a while.

The attributes of the elf ancient tree can make Lu Yuan's scalp numb, 20,000 health points, and 50 points of defense.

This attribute is even more perverted than the previous encounter with the Lava Snake Dragon.

Coupled with the two skills of the Elven Ancient Tree's ironwood bark and energy absorption, it is simply impossible to kill!

It's no wonder that these insects are gathering so many to attack this ancient tree.

Lu Yuan quickly noticed that within an area of the roots of the Elven Ancient Tree, the land began to dry up and crack, which was obviously due to the fact that the land energy had been squeezed dry by the Elven Ancient Tree.

And these insects don't gnaw at the trees of the ruins, but also to thin out the energy in the land.

In addition, in the interval between the attack of the elven ancient tree, Lu Yuan saw the golden fruit hanging between the branches and leaves of the big tree.

He was sure that the scent he had smelled before was from the golden apples.

And those bugs are probably for this stuff too.

I don't know what the effect is, but it's definitely a good thing.

On the periphery of the battlefield, Lu Yuan saw the leader of these bugs.

It was a beetle more than two meters tall that stood upright. The black carapace has strange and ornate patterns, and the horns on the top of the head are spread out like a crown.

Behind the beetle leader, there were huge brown nests.

On the hive, there are mothers with big bellies and poops. Their five- or six-meter-long bodies are almost immobile, but every ten minutes or so, their abdomen will squirm, and dozens of eggs will fall on the nest.

And these eggs can hatch all kinds of beetles in just half an hour.

It is with these hives that the beetles have a steady stream of armies thrown into the war against the Elven Ancient Tree.

【Beetle Lord Zora】

[Level: Boss LV30]

[Attack: 40]

[Defense: 35]

[HP: 5000]

[Skill]: Order the Swarm (★★★★) Beetle Lord Zola has unparalleled control in front of the swarm, which can improve the ability of the swarm.

Earth Shake (★★★) Zora, Beetle Lord, causes a small earthquake that slows enemies.

Berserk (★★★) Beetle Lord Zola can enter Berserk, increasing attack speed by 150% and damage by 30%, but reducing defense by 20.

The Beetle Lord Zora's attributes are obviously inferior to the Elven Ancient Tree, but it is not on its own.

As the war continues to heat up, the attacks of those bugs become even more frenzied, desperately rushing towards the elven ancient trees and launching suicide attacks.

Due to the lack of energy of the earth, the recovery ability of the elven ancient tree began to decline, and some wounds on the trunk did not have time to recover, and some insects attacked and continued to tear the wounds.

If this continues, the Elven Ancient Tree is likely to be ground to death first.
