#2305 - Running
When the clansmen had almost all left, Elder Yurio opened his eyes in the mirrored projection and said to Senzo, reminding him, "Senzo, the situation with the Divine Tree has not fully recovered, we cannot endlessly urge the power of the Divine Tree."
"Yes, I understand. Fang Heng is still useful to us, I know how to handle it." Senzo said, his eyes gradually becoming sharp, "But if he is unwilling to listen obediently..."
...
Outside the habitat.
The Licker swarm returned, surging towards the barrier like a tidal wave!
The Treant Clan guards had no choice but to retreat back to the habitat again, relying on the defense of the outer barrier to wear them down.
Sergei tried various methods, even sending out two Treant Clan squads to risk their lives, trying to lure the Licker swarm away from the clan.
Unfortunately, it was all in vain.
The Licker swarm had already identified their target, chasing after them for a while before turning back to continue attacking the barrier.
"This won't work."
Their speed of killing the Lickers was too slow.
Sergei frowned deeply.
The situation on the battlefield was extremely unfavorable to them.
The Licker swarm's recovery ability could only be described as terrifying; even attacks enhanced by high-level natural magic could not inflict fatal wounds.
What to do?!
"Buzz..."
A faint cyan light reappeared in the center of the habitat.
The Divine Tree's dimensional power was urged again.
In the distance, Fang Heng and the returning group of vampires watched from afar until they saw the power of the Divine Tree being urged again.
Fang Heng raised his hand and said, "Let's go."
"Yes!"
The vampire princes and dukes all nodded in unison.
This time, they understood.
Let's play!
Fang Heng could see clearly that the Leaf Clan was unwilling to waste resources with him, so they urged the power of nature twice in a row, each time with greater intensity.
It could be understood as a kind of warning.
The more they warned, the more Fang Heng could see the Leaf Clan's nervousness.
He knew very well that briefly strengthening the Divine Tree to release power would consume dimensional power.
That stuff was extremely precious.
To consume it like this, not to mention the Leaf Clan, even he felt a little heartache watching.
What a waste, what a waste...
How great it would be if Abe Akaya could absorb it.
In comparison, his Lickers could be resurrected an infinite number of times; if the two sides continued to consume each other like this, the Leaf Clan would definitely not be able to hold on.
On the front lines, after the power of the Divine Tree Seed erupted for the second time, the Treant Clan's output ability instantly increased more than threefold!
The efficiency of killing had also improved somewhat.
Natural arrows were already able to pose a slight threat to the Lickers' lives.
The Leaf Clan guards had just gained a little confidence and were preparing to fight a big battle when the Licker swarm once again quickly retreated.
"Chase!"
After several provocations, Sergei also lost some control of his emotions and immediately led the clan members to pursue, clearing out the Lickers along the way.
Unfortunately, the speed of clearing them out was still too slow.
Against a swarm of tens of thousands of Lickers, the loss of a few hundred was not painful or itchy at all.
Huh?
Halfway through the chase, Sergei's pupils suddenly contracted, and he abruptly looked up.
"Boom! Boom boom boom!!!"
Suddenly, a series of dense blood-colored bombs fell from the sky!
Not good!
An ambush!
Having chased all the way here, Sergei's squad had left the range covered by the Divine Tree's power for some distance, and the positive Divine Tree buff effects they had received had mostly disappeared.
???????? 55. ??????
"Boom! Boom boom!!!"
Dense soul bombs fell into the Treant Clan's ranks, causing widespread casualties.
"Careful! The enemy is above!"
The Leaf Clan immediately unleashed natural arrows to counterattack into the high sky.
The vampire princes and dukes all dodged the incoming rain of arrows, and if they couldn't avoid it, they directly used vampire barriers to withstand it.
Having lost the protection of the Divine Tree, the vampires clearly felt that fighting was even more difficult.
The Lickers then arrived!
The already chaotic Treant Clan ranks became even more disorganized.
Sergei frowned, thinking that things were bad.
They were ambushed!
Sergei and several clan elders glanced at the high sky, and their eyes could not help but reveal a look of astonishment.
What was the situation with that group of humans hovering in the air?
He originally thought that only Fang Heng could control qi and blood, but he didn't expect that there were so many like him?
When did humans gain this strange ability?
"Withdraw!"
Sergei decisively chose to retreat.
The situation was not good at the moment, they had already entered the enemy's encirclement, and if they continued like this, it would be even more difficult to break out if they were surrounded by the Licker swarm.
"Hmph..."
In the dark, a pair of gloomy eyes stared at Sergei and his group.
They'd already come.
Now they want to run?
Without leaving something behind?
Mind shock!
Blood manipulation!
Fang Heng had already selected his target and immediately used his skills continuously on an elder in the team.
In the Leaf Clan's ranks, an elder suddenly noticed something and his spirit stagnated.
His spirit was instantly dazed for a moment, and when he regained consciousness again, he was surprised to find that the blood all over his body was flowing rapidly out of control!
What the heck!?
In the chaos, the Treant Clan guards were quickly retreating, and when they saw an elder in the team acting a little strangely, stunned in place for a moment, he was then pounced on and knocked to the ground by two pursuing Lickers.
"Elder Nanu!"
Several nearby Leaf Clan guards immediately stepped forward to assist, repelling the pouncing Lickers and helping Elder Nanu up.
Nanu clenched his teeth, and the veins on his forehead bulged.
He was trying hard to restrain the rapidly boiling blood in his body.
"Elder, you..."
"Boom! Boom boom boom!!!"
The next moment, dense qi and blood bombs concentrated their firepower on Elder Nanu's area.
Elder Nanu and several Leaf Clan guards around him were immediately hit by the qi and blood bombs and blown away, each of them seriously injured.
The Treant Clan's battles had always been mostly individual combat, relying on their powerful personal strength to fight, with almost no so-called tactics; being able to ensure focused output at any time was already pretty good.
This time, Sergei brought a large team of more than 500 people from the clan, and in the midst of the chaos, it was difficult to notice that a few people had fallen behind.
After all, with more than 500 people, casualties were normal.
As long as they could ensure the safe departure of most of the people, that would be good.
He couldn't delay the entire army's retreat because of the casualties of a few clansmen.
Only Sergei never expected that among those who had left the team, there was actually a clan elder!
It wasn't until Sergei and his group retreated all the way and safely escaped the danger back to the vicinity of the habitat that the team began to count the numbers.
Sergei's face showed anger.
Damn it!
They were set up!
Fortunately, he retreated in time, and the casualties were not great.
But what was the situation with that group of humans in the air?
Why were they able to possess the ability to fly, as well as the powerful ability to control qi and blood?
