Chapter 131: The bloodthirsty mother tree and the ogres
Translator: 549690339
“The mother tree in front of Tang Zhen had already reached a height of over a hundred meters the moment it appeared. Moreover, it was luxuriant and exuberant, occupying a large area of the valley. Its tree body was extremely thick and solid. One would feel as though one was facing a huge tower when one walked to its roots. ”
“The big tree in front of him looked quite spectacular. Fortunately, Tang Zhen had seen the mother tree’s majestic figure at its peak. Therefore, he was not too surprised. ”
!!
The rest of the people were at a loss. They would never have thought that the auxiliary city built by the Lord Castellan would be such a thing.
“Many of the residents had never seen a tree before because there was not a single tree in the vicinity of Black Rock City. They looked at the huge plant in front of them and felt that it was rather impressive. After all, this was the auxiliary city built by the Lord Castellan. It was not something simple! ”
“Tang Zhen did not care about the discussions of the residents. Instead, he slowly walked to the mother tree and placed his palm on the trunk of the mother tree. Almost at the instant his palm touched the trunk of the mother tree, an indescribable feeling enveloped him, causing Tang Zhen to feel as if he had been bathed in a spring breeze. ”
“As the city Lord of the mother tree Tower City, Tang Zhen could easily feel the power contained in the mother tree. However, whether he could communicate with the mother tree and use this power depended on his talent and luck. After all, this kind of thing could not be forced. ”
“Tang Zhen carefully felt the power from the mother tree. It was peaceful and natural, filled with a magic that could calm people down. Unfortunately, this was not the power that Tang Zhen wanted. ”
“He needed to be passionate, he needed to be violent, and not to be as gentle as water! ”
The mountain-like piles of monster corpses in the valley were the feast that Tang Zhen had prepared for the mother tree.
“When Tang Zhen ordered the mother tree to absorb the nutrients from these monsters ‘corpses, he seemed to feel a sense of resistance and unwillingness. It seemed that the mother tree, who liked fresh and natural things, hated the blood and carrion. ”
“However, the mother tree could not disobey Tang Zhen’s order. Therefore, a few seconds later, the residents of Holy Dragon City saw countless roots suddenly pop out from the roots of the giant tree, and then ruthlessly stab into the corpses of the monsters around it. ”
“The monsters ‘corpses that were pierced by the roots seemed to be rapidly shriveling at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was not known if it was an illusion, but the residents of Holy Dragon City noticed that the giant tree seemed to be growing bigger and bigger. ”
“Tang Zhen nodded in satisfaction as he watched the mother tree begin to absorb the monster’s flesh and blood. At this moment, he could already feel a trace of slightly violent power from the mother tree’s energy, and it was faintly growing stronger. ”
“This was the power that belonged to the mother tree of war. It was no longer peaceful and uncontested, but violent and brutal. Any power that dared to confront it would be met with its fiercest counterattack! ”
“Tang Zhen withdrew his hand from the mother tree and glanced at the Wanderers behind him who were filled with anticipation. He smiled and said, from now on, all of you will become new residents of Holy Dragon City. Ziyan will lead you to collect your identity cards and wait for your orders quietly. You may be very busy later because you still need to clean up the corpses of the monsters that are attacking the city. ”
“Everyone nodded and followed behind Murong Zi Yan, excitedly heading towards the Holy Dragon city’s main city to collect their identity cards. ”
“After Tang Zhen set the mother tree’s City Tower as an auxiliary city, the foundation of the mother tree’s City Tower would automatically integrate into the foundation of the main city Tower. If he wanted to upgrade, he would have to upgrade both cities at the same time, and the consumption would also double. ”
“In this way, the mother tree tower would not have a cornerstone trading platform, but would share a platform with the main city. If the Holy Dragon City was destroyed, the two cornerstones would be separated instantly and become independent cornerstones. ”
“It was precisely because of this characteristic that the other towers did not dare to rashly build an auxiliary city. The price they had to pay was simply too great, and the losses would easily outweigh the gains! ”
“Tang Zhen turned his head to look at the mother tree that was happily devouring flesh and blood. He extended his hand and hooked onto one of its hanging vines. Then, he suddenly leaped and climbed up the vines to the higher part of the mother tree. ”
“As if it could sense Tang Zhen’s thoughts, the mother tree’s vines quickly retracted. Tang Zhen did not use much strength and climbed up a huge branch of the mother tree. At the same time, a few treehouses made of vines and leaves appeared in front of him. ”
“This was the accommodation area provided by the mother tree Tower City for the residents. On this Level 1 mother tree, there were a total of ten such treehouses, each of which was strong and solid, looking like a fully enclosed bird’s nest. ”
“Tang Zhen did not plan to let anyone stay here for the time being. This was because he did not lack a house to live in. In his heart, the mother tree was the source of protection and strength for the sacred Dragon Valley. How could he allow anyone to climb it randomly? ”
“Tang Zhen’s gaze left the treehouse. After looking around, he jumped down along the vines. After which, his body was like lightning as he appeared on the huge mud wall in the blink of an eye. ”
“After seeing Tang Zhen’s arrival, the soldiers saluted and greeted him. Tang Zhen indicated that they did not need to be so polite as he slowly turned his gaze to the gravel plain outside. ”
“On the gravel plain not far away, the silhouettes of a group of monsters could be vaguely seen. There were about a thousand of them. ”
“This group of monsters were only level one or two small monsters. To the soldiers of the Holy Dragon City, they only needed to aim and pull the trigger, and they could easily take care of these monsters. ”
“However, Tang Zhen discovered the shadow of the corpse race among these monsters. He could not help but be slightly surprised. At the same time, he secretly guessed that the territory of the corpse race had already expanded to the vicinity of the Holy Dragon City. ”
“This might be the scene that Tang Zhen was most unwilling to see. Although there would be a battle with the corpse race sooner or later, Tang Zhen hoped that day would come as late as possible. This was because once the Holy Dragon City took the initiative to attack, it would prove that Tang Zhen already had the confidence to annihilate the corpse race! ”
“Hopefully, this was just a corpse race that had randomly barged in. Otherwise, he would have to quickly prepare for a great battle! ”
“Just as Tang Zhen’s mind was filled with thoughts on how to deal with the undead race and that terrifying spirit brain undead King, Qian Long suddenly roared,””Damn, why are there ogres here to join in the fun!”” ”
Ogres?
“Tang Zhen was startled when he heard this. He naturally knew about these huge monsters. Moreover, he knew that these monsters were four to five meters tall. The lowest was rank 3, and the highest was rank 5. They had green and red stripes on their skin. They had boundless strength and a simple mind. Their food preferences were extremely varied and could be said to be omnivorous. ”
“Moreover, these humanoid monsters loved to eat people, so their name as ogres was definitely true! ”
“There was a common sense in the endless wilderness: never follow the ogres in search of food, because they would eat everything. ”
“It could be said that wherever the ogres wandered, there would be a disaster. This was because they would fill their stomachs with anything that could be eaten. Moreover, these monsters were always in a state of hunger, and they were constantly eating, eating, and eating from birth to death! ”
“The ogres were like this because they had terrifying digestive and regenerative abilities. It was said that even if the muscles of the monster were cut off, it would recover in a day. ”
“As long as you provided it with food, the ogres ‘regeneration ability would never disappear. ”
“Therefore, the ogres were not afraid of being cut by knives and axes. Even if their stomachs were torn apart, they would not care. This made the ogres one of the most troublesome monsters for Wanderers. Both humans and other races kept a respectful distance from them. ”
“After understanding this information about the ogres, Tang Zhen knew that the firearms in his hands no longer held any advantage. This was because even a powerful grenade would only be defeated in front of the ogres, who had tough skin and amazing recovery ability. ”
“Tang Zhen had gotten a rocket launcher from Ivanov, but he might not have absolute confidence in winning against the ogres. ”
The originally simple defense of the city had become very complicated because of the appearance of these ogres.
“With the appearance of the ogres, these low-level monsters seemed to have a backbone. They howled even louder and gathered around the ogres, who usually would not even have time to hide, jumping up and down. ”
“Due to the laws of nature, the ogres did not devour the food that was everywhere. Instead, they opened their mouths, which were full of fangs and drool, and stared at the people on the wall! ”
The siege battle began at the first touch!
