Chapter 2226 Small Town
Midnight.
The small town controlled by the rebel forces of the Tree Whisperers Alliance.
The Federation was already in position, lurking outside the town.
Each team was prepared for battle.
The psychic warriors were fully armed.
Hu Haiyu was also among the team.
After days of intense training, they had finally pushed their mental honing to the limit their bodies could bear.
He believed his strength had undergone a qualitative transformation.
This was his first mission after the transformation.
Failure was not an option!
Not just him, but everyone in the elite psychic team led by Shi Yanwu was filled with fiery determination.
The entire team had been brought to optimal condition and awaited orders from the command post.
Occasionally, people glanced to the right.
Dr. Fang!
They had heard that Dr. Fang would personally oversee the operation.
But they hadn't expected Dr. Fang to join them on the front line.
It was strange. Every time Hu Haiyu saw Dr. Fang, he felt an inexplicable sense of submission, as if he instinctively didn't want to disobey any orders from Dr. Fang.
Hu Haiyu told himself it was probably just a sense of gratitude towards Dr. Fang.
Gratitude for helping him break through the bottleneck of psychic abilities.
"Operation starts!"
With the commands relayed through their earpieces, under the cover of night, each Federal team infiltrated into the town.
Fang Heng glanced at the others and immediately followed suit.
According to the intelligence obtained by the Federation beforehand, there were only a dozen or so tree spirits in the town, all gathered in the warehouse area, and there were no elder-level tree spirits among them.
It was not a big problem.
This surprise attack was mainly to see what the tree spirits were up to, as well as to test the strength of the psychic transformers and complete the mission assigned by the Leaf tribe.
Soon, the psychic team dealt with several unlucky patrols of the Tree Whisperers Alliance using psychic shockwaves, and the Federation smoothly entered the warehouse area of the town.
At the entrance of the large warehouse, a few guards from the Tree Whisperers Alliance were sitting on chairs chatting quietly.
"Did you hear something over there?"
One guard suddenly seemed to vaguely hear something and looked up towards the distance, seeing shadows approaching in the darkness.
The guards couldn't help but be alert, picking up their beam weapons placed beside them and staring into the darkness.
"Hey! Who's there?"
Several of them stood up immediately, shouting, "Skulking around! Come out now! If you don't come out, I'll shoot!"
"Bang!!"
The next moment, before the guards could continue shouting, they all felt a momentary daze in their minds, and everything seemed to fade away, as if they were in a trance.
Then, a severe tearing pain surged from their heads, as if they had been hit by an invisible heavy blow, and they were violently thrown back, crashing heavily into the outer wall of the warehouse behind them.
"Charge!"
The psychic team quickly advanced and surrounded the periphery of the warehouse.
"Reporting to the command post, the area has been secured, and the warehouse has been locked down. Please advise."
"Well done. Prepare to invade the interior of the warehouse. Confirm the presence of tree spirit guards inside and be extremely cautious."
"Understood."
Shi Yanwu nodded and signaled to his subordinates to prepare for the invasion.
After counting down with hand gestures, the warehouse door was forcefully opened by the team with a bang!
"Who goes there!"
Inside the warehouse, many members of the Tree Whisperers Alliance were busy. When they saw the warehouse door suddenly burst open, they were startled and turned to face the entrance.
Seeing the Federal attire worn by the members of the psychic team, they immediately realized.
"Oh no! It's the Federation!"
"The Federation has invaded the town!"
In the next moment, invisible psychic shocks sent them flying!
Fang Heng, who had been following behind the team, entered the warehouse and frowned suddenly, shouting, "Watch your step!"
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!!
Looking down, they saw tree roots rapidly shooting towards them like serpents!
"Don't let them get close!"
Mind control!
The team once again used their psychic abilities to forcefully repel the approaching tree roots from the ground!
In the rear of the warehouse, the tree spirits immediately interfered with the Federation's actions using their spell abilities upon seeing the sudden intrusion.
"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!!!"
In mid-air, thick wooden spikes flew towards the team!
"Quick! Deploy the barrier!"
A barrier formed from their mental strength was erected in front of the team, blocking the enormous wooden spikes.
"Boom!!"
Under the intense impact of the wooden spikes, the spiritual barrier trembled with a booming sound!
"Boom!!"
Immediately after, the wooden spikes burst upon the barrier!
"Counterattack!"
Both sides began a long-range spell duel.
Fang Heng observed from the side.
The barriers condensed by the Federal psychic scholars were strong enough to withstand the tree spirit's long-range spell attacks. They had no problem defending themselves.
However, they lacked effective long-range attack means compared to their opponents.
The tree spirit group was hiding deep within the warehouse, making it difficult to lock onto targets for psychic attacks.
Seeing the battle turning into a long-range magic duel, Fang Heng couldn't help but furrow his brow.
It was a waste of time.
Things could change at any moment.
It would be better to help them end this quickly.
Fang Heng narrowed his eyes and tried to approach the cover at the back of the warehouse from the side.
Huh?
Fang Heng raised his eyebrows.
Several previously hidden wooden tribe members suddenly appeared from the corner of the warehouse, swiftly approaching him.
Close combat?
The next moment, a loud shout came through the earpiece, "Dr. Fang, be careful! Don't let them get close!!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"
The Wood tribe members exploded before they could fully reach him!
Fang Heng was suddenly enveloped in a violent explosion!
D*mn it!
It was a wooden clone!
Fang Heng was sent flying by the sudden explosion of the wooden clone.
[Hint: The player suffers 22,263 points of explosion damage from the wooden clone and enters a knockback and burning state.]
[Hint: Due to the effect of the 'undying body', the player's knockback and burning state end...]
Fang Heng's charred skin quickly regenerated, and with agile movements, he performed a double leap in mid-air, swiftly approaching the back of the warehouse once again.
His premonition from before was correct!
After breaking through the spiritual domain blockade network, the tree spirits received a boost.
And after entering the Elders Council, their overall strength received an additional increase!
After two consecutive boosts, the normal tree spirits' strength had reached the level of elder abilities before the spiritual domain blockade was opened.
"Be careful, protect Dr. Fang!"
At the rear, the psychic team immediately used mind control to fling away the wooden clones attempting to approach Fang Heng, one by one, crashing them into the walls, creating explosions to buy time for Fang Heng.
