Chapter 50: The Tree Mage
The first uncontrollable factor occurred on the Terran side, and the warriors of the Warsong Legion were mixed with a small number of mercenaries.
The biggest difference between a warrior and a mercenary is the trade-off between responsibilities and interests, the mercenary will take on the responsibility of guarding for the reward, and the warrior's responsibility to protect comes from honor and order.
Martin charged to the front line, and his legionnaires would follow him until the moment he fell. But for the mercenaries, this is a battle without profit, and they have no responsibility to rush forward knowing that they will die in the end.
So some mercenaries began to slip in the battle, trying to hide in the back row, and the first choice when encountering the orc warriors who pounced was to hide backwards rather than rush up, and some old mercenaries had already begun to wait for an opportunity to slip away.
Not only ordinary mercenaries thought so, but even the two mercenary captains, Kirkel and Valeo, had the same thoughts. So far, the mercenaries under the two have been killed and wounded, and the mercenary group, which was already seriously injured, is now even more broken, and if they continue to fight with the Warsong Legion, the result of waiting for the mercenary group will inevitably be annihilated.
As the battle raged, Kirker and Valeo exchanged glances and withdrew from the fight. As the two fled, they also sent a secret signal to their mercenaries to retreat.
Although the number of mercenaries on the battlefield is small, the impact of such a sudden withdrawal on the battle situation is fatal. The number of people in the front row of the Terrans suddenly decreased, especially the two powerful warriors of Kirkel and Valeo, who were immediately unable to block the impact of the orc forwards and were killed backwards. The deeper impact was on morale, and the deserters appeared in his own formation, which made the soldiers who were still fighting also feel distracted. The combination of the two could not stop the impact of the orcs, and the situation of the Warsong Legion suddenly became precarious.
Kirkel and Valeo led people to escape from the Warsong Legion's military formation, and they didn't run out for a few dozen meters before they ran into Leon with a murderous face, and the escape of these mercenaries naturally ruined Leon's affairs!
"Go back and fight!"
"We have nothing to do with this, let us go, we are willing to pay the corresponding honorarium!" Kirkel gestured to beg for mercy.
"Go back to fighting!" Leon's face became even more murderous.
"Don't think we're afraid of you, it's not good for you to stop us!" said Kirkle, who saw that the soft could not do it, and immediately began to harden himself.
But Kirkel's set was completely useless to Leon, "We orcs hate cowards and deserters the most, you don't plan to go back and die here!" Leon waved his hand behind him, and Midwinter, Munch and others led his soldiers to pounce.
The orc generals and warriors under Leon were far more elite than the Golden Lion's army, not to mention that they had always retained their energy and did not participate in the battle, and as soon as they rushed forward, the mercenaries were immediately unable to stop them, and a large area was cut down in an instant.
Kirkel and Valeo hurriedly used their fighting skills one after another, but their opponents were Midwinter of the Tyrannosaurus and Munk from the Temple, both of whom were among the best orc warriors of the same rank.
The mace in Midwinter's hand sank so hard that Valeo retreated again and again, and he only had the ability to parry. The iron rod in Munk's hand was unusual, and after a few false moves, suddenly a struck a slash at Kirker's leg and swept him to the ground, and then a stick smashed Kirker's head to kill him.
At this time, a second uncontrollable factor appeared, and the iron rod that should have been smashed on Kirkel's head hovered in mid-air, and could no longer be smashed.
Looking intently, a thin vine wrapped around Munch's stick, and the other end of the vine was in the hands of a tall old man in mid-air, who was none other than the Grand Magician of Selenda.
Of course, Serenda couldn't watch Kirkel die here, and if he died here, the clue to his magic notes would be broken, so Serenda made a move at this time.
"How could he be here?" exclaimed Spence at the top of the stone pillar in the distance.
"Who is this man?"
None of the people present had ever seen Grand Wizard of Selenda, except for Spence, even if he was wearing a mask at the time.
"He's Serenda of Yanfeng Manor, look at it, it's lively today!"
On the battlefield, Munch asked the same question, "Who are you?"
Serenda sneered, "After all these years, don't the orcs remember me now?
As Serenda spoke, there was a slight cracking sound on the ground, and small red seedlings emerged from the solid rock, and these red seedlings were almost all over the battlefield.
With a wave of her hand, the small red seedlings under the feet of the orc warriors grew rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, they were more than half a human tall.
"Get out of those red plants, get out of them quickly!" suddenly came out of the golden lion array, and Old Demon Yuan's huge roar came out.
Celenda looked into the Golden Lion Army, "Someone still remembers it, but it's too late!"
By this time, the red plants had grown into small trees two or three meters tall, and the red trunks were covered with black spikes instead of leaves, and the trunks began to fork after growing more than two meters. The branches were no longer as hard as the trunk, but soft, drooping branches, and the strangest thing was that at the top of each branch grew a ball as large as a human head.
The orc warriors had never seen such a strange tree, and when Old Demon Yuan's roar came, the orc warriors hesitated to retreat. It's just that these strange trees are too dense, and they dodge the tree in front of them and unconsciously move under another tree.
"Wake up, my children!"
With a clear cry from Serenda, all the branches fluttered, and the large ball at the top of the branch suddenly cracked in the middle, and it was full of sharp teeth, like a large open mouth. A large cracked mouth bit the orc warrior with the power of the fluttering branches.
The orc warrior let out a terrible scream, and after being bitten, the blood in his body was sucked into his mouth with a huge force.
The orc warrior struggled desperately, trying to use the weapon in his hand to cut the branches, but was shocked to find that after being bitten, he couldn't run his fighting energy, and his body was soft and couldn't exert any strength. There were orc warriors next to him to help, but the branches that looked soft were extremely tough, and they kept cutting with a few knives.
There are strong orc warriors who directly attack the body of the monster tree, although the knife wrapped in the fighting spirit cut a crack in the trunk, the black spikes on the trunk also shot out at the same time, countless spikes pierced the bodies of the surrounding orc warriors, and the orcs began to become whirlwind, their eyes blurred, these black thorns are a means of protecting the body of the monster tree, full of poison.
The orc warrior who was bitten by the big mouth collapsed limply in a matter of seconds, and in a few seconds he was a bloodless corpse.
The strange tree, which had sucked the blood of the orcs, grew a lot taller, to be more than a man thick and four or five meters tall, and branched out from the tree with a large blood-sucking mouth.
These strange trees can grow stronger by sucking blood!
Old Demon Yuan suddenly roared again, "I remember, he was the tree mage back then!"
Serenda let out a loud laugh, "Then let me take you back to the horrors of those days!"
