Chapter 354 Thirty years later

Noel area, where the sixth tallest tower is located.

On the ground, a towering giant tree stood quietly there, surrounded by thousands of illusory black crows, presenting a dream-like scene.

"Still no signs of recovery?"

Enzo was wearing a black robe, standing in front of the Sanizo Tree, looking at the sleeping giant tree in front of him, murmuring to himself.

Half a year has passed since the mission to release the disaster beast, and it has been five months since Enzo returned to the sixth tower.

"I can't believe that Dean Froslai relied on the power of the disaster beast to severely damage even the fourth-level life form level of the Elkila Tree!"

Enzo raised his head, recalling the news that came back from the Iron Wall Fortress not long ago, and couldn't help but sigh.

According to the latest news that reached the Noel area half a month ago, Dean Froslai has returned to the Iron Wall Fortress and brought back the disaster beast Ochino.

No one knows the details of that shocking battle, but Froslai, who returned from the Purified Forest, obviously suffered extremely serious injuries. As soon as he returned to the Iron Wall Fortress, he directly announced his retreat and handed over all the command of the expedition. Wizard Mitchell.

On the other side, according to the raven sent by the fortress, they went to the Purified Forest to explore the information back. After a shocking battle there, the entire Purified Forest had been completely destroyed.

The Tree of Akiela was severely damaged by the collaboration of Froslai and the giant scorpion Ocino, and was infected by the breath of the disaster beast, so it fell into a state similar to a deep sleep.

The Children of the Forest have lost their guardian. Now they have stopped attacking the Iron Wall Fortress and have adopted a full defensive posture. They seem to be doing their best to find a way to cure the Elqira Tree.

“All things in the world are interdependent and mutually reinforcing each other!”

Enzo stroked his chin, thinking with his eyes, and murmured, "The Disaster Beast and the Tree of Aira are both life forms that were born in the world, but their attributes represent the two extremes of life and destruction!"

"Therefore, even though the Akiela Tree has evolved to a fourth-level life form comparable to a god, the disaster beast Occhino is still its Achilles' heel!"

"Dean Froslay has mastered the disaster beast, and the biggest obstacle to wizard civilization's conquest of the world will no longer exist..."

Enzo's eyes flashed with luster, and he looked at the Sanizo Tree in front of him again.

"The Tree of Elkira has been severely damaged by Dean Froslai, so the Children of the Forest will be in a passive state for a long time to come!"

"It won't be long before the wizard coalition will take action. They will take advantage of this opportunity to speed up the development of [Elkila World]."

"However, these have nothing to do with me for the time being." Enzo shook his head and murmured: "I just completed the task of releasing the disaster beast. The senior management of the college is reasonable and should not do it again for a long time." Send me a mandatory mission!"

"Using this period of time, I should speed up the cultivation of the Sanizo Tree. As long as this third-level life form is fully revived, it will definitely become my biggest gain in [Elkila World]!"

Enzo's eyes flashed with a fiery luster. He looked at the sleeping giant tree on the ground, and his heart felt hot. He was full of expectations for the third-level life form that he had spent a lot of time and energy cultivating.

…

Time flies by like water, and in the blink of an eye, another thirty years have passed.

On the desolate plain, there is no end as far as the eye can see.

The black earth is full of rocks and soil, with almost no signs of life around. In the center of the desolate plain, a dilapidated forest is embedded in the earth like an oasis.

In the distance, a figure slowly appeared.

"Is this the area where the mission target is?" Enzo murmured, looking at the dead forest ahead.

"The breath of disaster beasts is constantly infecting the world. It seems that even if the target of this mission is still alive, I am afraid it is already the end of the attack..."

In place, Enzo shook his head.

The next moment, his body turned into a black mist and disappeared.

"Hur! Hur!"

As Enzo's figure slowly emerged in the forest, the chaotic shouts of the Green Devils suddenly came from the surroundings. More than ten short Green Devils picked up simple wooden weapons and surrounded Enzo.

Enzo looked indifferent and thought.

The shadow under his feet turned into a long whip, which instantly stabbed out like a poisonous snake, piercing through the bodies of the two green monsters at the same time. Then with a violent shake, the bodies flew out and hit a big withered tree.

"Be careful! It's the Shadow Demon!"

"The Shadow Demon is here!"

The surrounding Green Demons were still shouting "Hell" and "Hell", but the chip that mastered the Green Demon's language translated the meaning of their screams and fed it back to Enzo.

The green demons in this forest all call Enzo the ‘Shadow Demon’!

Thirty years have passed. During the period when the Aqila Tree was infected by the aura of the disaster beast and fell into a deep sleep, the wizard civilization's expedition to this world has developed at a terrifying speed.

This is not the first time Enzo has performed a similar mission in the past thirty years.

Many fights with aliens on the battlefield earned him the nickname "Shadow Demon". In today's mission, Enzo's goal is to bring the Son of the Forest hiding in this forest and bring him back to the Sixth Tower as much as possible. .

All around, the weak green demons rushed forward bravely without fear of death.

Enzo looked around, searching for his target, and at the same time controlled the shadow whip with his mind, easily killing the green monsters around him one by one, as if the blood of plant juice dyed the ground green.

"Leave these poor Heels alone!"

At this time, a hoarse voice suddenly came, and deep in the ruined forest, a delicate girl slowly walked out. Her body was stooped, her long green hair was now like withered grass, and her face was extremely weak, as if she was seriously ill.

"It's me you're looking for, right? An outsider!"

Sassy, ​​the son of the forest, stopped, her emerald green eyes flashed with perseverance, and she said hoarsely, "This forest belongs to my territory, and you will never be allowed to destroy it wantonly!"

Enzo looked at the weak child of the forest in front of him, his eyes flashing with thought.

"It is already so weak. It seems that the aura of the disaster beast Ocino continues to spread, which has a great impact on the Children of the Forest clan who have lost the protection of the Eqila Tree!" Enzo murmured to himself.

Thirty years have passed since the Tree of Aqila fell into a deep sleep.

The Sons of the Forest clan tried every means, but still could not wake it up. On the other hand, in the wizarding civilization, Froslai, known as the 'King of Wizards', recovered after only ten years of seclusion.

And with Froslai regaining power, the Wizarding Civilization's expedition to [Ai Qila World] has also accelerated its progress!

The giant scorpion beast Ocino was enslaved by Froslai. Under the order of the Wizard King, he released his breath to his heart's content. The energy with the nature of destroying all things continued to invade and infect everything.

The lakes have dried up and the forests have withered!

The Sons of the Forest clan, which relied on the power of nature to rule the world, gradually declined under the influence of the aura of disaster beasts. More and more areas of the world fell under the control of the wizard civilization.

And the power of the Children of the Forest clan has become weaker and weaker.

"Come on! Evil outsider!"

Opposite me, Sassie, the Son of the Forest, took a deep breath, a light green light appeared all over her body, and said resolutely, "The Sons of the Forest will never be afraid of sacrifice. Even if it means death, I will definitely make you pay the price!"

"Death? I'm not going to kill you."

Enzo shook his head and chuckled, "A living son of the forest is worth far more than a dead body. My mission is to bring you back to the tower alive, not a corpse."

"Don't even think about it!" Sasie's eyes turned cold and she suddenly waved her arms.

On the ground, sharp bamboo-like plants sprang out from the soil quickly. Enzo's face was calm, and he lightly tapped the soul bone wand in his hand. The dark energy spread suddenly, lifting up all the sharp bamboos coming from around him.

"Come out, tree guard!"

Sassie chanted a spell in a low voice, and bulges appeared everywhere on the ground. Plants grew out of the ground and turned into tree guards holding shields.

"Only four?" Enzo raised his eyebrows.

As a second-level life form, one of the natural abilities of the children of the forest is to summon tree guards. Almost every adult son of the forest can easily summon ten tree guards, and the combat effectiveness of each tree guard is equivalent to that of a first-level life form.

However, at this moment, Sassy only summoned four tree guards, and they all looked thin.

The aura of the giant scorpion beast Ocino spread across the land, and all the children of the forest were injured to varying degrees. In severe cases, they even lost themselves and became fallen spirits. Sassy's situation was relatively good.

"Let's resolve the battle within ten minutes!"

Enzo took a deep breath, with a flash of coldness in his eyes. He raised his hand and waved his wand, throwing a dark fireball, directly killing the two tree guards.

Immediately afterwards, two other tree guards rushed up.

Wow!

On the spot, Enzo's figure turned into a phantom crow and dispersed. Two tree guards jumped into the air. Sassy, ​​the son of the forest, felt a little uneasy. The next moment, a shadow appeared behind him.

brush!

A black metal net was thrown over, covering the Son of the Forest. The imprisonment runes attached to it flickered slightly. Sassy suddenly felt weak all over, and the natural power in her body seemed to be suppressed.

"How could this happen?" Sassy was shocked.

"Stop trying to struggle." Enzo said expressionlessly, "Although this confining magic net is just a high-level demonized item, it was specially made to deal with the Children of the Forest. The runes on it can suppress the power of nature. !”

"The more you struggle now, the faster the natural power in your body will be depleted!"

Not far away, two tree guards turned around and found that Sassie was trapped. They immediately prepared to return for help, but before they could get close, they were directly killed by Enzo's dark fireball thrown again.

"The children of the forest who were infected by the aura of the disaster beast have completely lost the power of the second-level life form."

Enzo shook his head slightly, took a few steps forward, grabbed the magic net that enveloped the Son of the Forest, and was about to leave the forest, but at this moment, a slight tremor suddenly came from the earth.

"Evil outsider, don't even think about taking Sassy away!"

A dull sound came from above. Enzo looked up and saw a huge figure appearing in front of him, forming a huge shadow on the ground.

"Lalut Giant Tree?"

Enzo frowned slightly, looked at the huge figure in front of him, and asked doubtfully, "The aura of the disaster beast Ocino has almost enveloped the entire world. The Larut Giant Tree clan was extinct three years ago. How come there are still people alive?"

"I understand, it's this child of the forest!"

Seemingly thinking of something, Enzo thoughtfully turned to look at the Son of the Forest in the magic net at his feet, and said, "No wonder the natural power in your body is so weak. It turns out that it is all to support this Larut giant tree."

"Evil outsider!"

Sassy looked extremely weak and said with hatred: "The Children of the Forest will never abandon their companions. You foolishly released the disaster beast Ocino. One day you will be cursed by the world and pay the price for your actions!"

Enzo chuckled, shook his head, and ignored Sassy's curse.

"I'll come to save you right away, Sassy." Larut Giant Tree was tall, but his voice was somewhat honest. He looked at Enzo on the ground, with a trace of anger flashing in his eyes.

"Give me back Sassy!!"

The Larute giant tree roared, raised an arm and slammed it to the ground. Enzo grabbed the magic net of confinement, and at the same time launched the wings of shadow and flew into the air.

"Relying purely on physical attacks, even second-level creatures are not threatening at all!"

Enzo threw the Imprisoning Magic Network and the Son of the Forest aside, looked at the slow-moving Larut Giant Tree, shook his head slightly, took out a flintlock gun from his arms, and said in a deep voice: "I didn't want to deal with you at all. There is no need to use magic witchcraft, but in order to save time, it is better to just do it."

The next moment, Enzo aimed his gun at the Larut Giant Tree.

boom!

As the trigger was pulled, strong energy fluctuations burst out. At the muzzle of the evil spirit's roaring gun, a bullet that seemed to be made up of countless resentful souls was shot out, instantly hitting the Larut giant tree.

"Sassy."

The roar of the evil spirit penetrated the body of the Larut Giant Tree, and the cold energy exploded in its chest, as if it had swallowed up all the life force of the Larut Giant Tree in an instant.

Boom!

After uttering a final cry, the huge body of the Larut giant tree fell down, and the earth trembled. Thick smoke rose in the forest. Sassie, who was trapped in the magic net, had an unbelievable luster in her eyes.

After using the magic weapon, Enzo turned slightly pale.

He was a little surprised to be able to kill the Larut Giant Tree so easily, but it didn't matter if he thought about it carefully. Since the disaster beast Ochino was released, its aura has continued to spread, and all the native creatures in the world of Elkila have been affected.

The Larut Giant Tree was originally a second-order life form, but now it is not even as good as a first-order life form.

"It went pretty well."

In place, Enzo shook his head. After solving the giant tree of Larut, he turned around and dragged away the magic net. This mission went very smoothly. The son of the forest, Sasie, has been captured, and this forest will soon be Wither and disappear.
