The knight in the abyss

Chapter 639 Burning Wood

Maybe Sonam's threat was a bit too terrifying. The two half-demons were obviously frightened, and even the voice of the spell could be heard trembling. The barely released spell was like splashing water on a burning house A bowl of water, the effect is almost negligible.Of course, amidst the roar of the six-armed snake, they immediately started the second attempt.

At this moment, Lancelot suddenly smelled a special stench. He turned around and found that there were already many cowards in the crowd.The demon army in the rear didn't know what happened in front, and they kept advancing, causing the density of the surrounding crowd to increase at a dangerous speed.

"General Sonam!" Lancelot shouted without hesitation, "There are too many people here! Order everyone to form!"

The six-armed snake turned its head violently, its face almost contorted with anger.Even if Lancelot is Tijana's favorite man, she has no right to speak to her in that tone. Like all high-ranking demons, she can take the slightest offense as a serious insult and respond with the fiercest .

But at the same time, Sonam is also a battle-tested commander with keen observation skills and well-honed tactical thinking.As soon as she saw what was behind her, she immediately realized that Lancelot was right. If a fight broke out at this time, most people would not even be able to swing their weapons without hurting their comrades.

'Everyone, spread out! ' the voice of the lizard echoed telepathically in everyone's mind, 'quick quick quick!Get me moving! '

"We need to talk about your way of speaking later, Lancelot." Sonam gave the human knight a vicious look, then turned and shouted at the two beautiful half-demon casters, "Have I allowed you to stop?" ? Keep trying! Keep trying until you succeed!"

At the same time, the mercenaries who received the order also walked towards the open space on the left side of the road.The crowd density at this time is not too high, and the action is not difficult, but everyone walks very cautiously, for fear that there may be traps set by the devil here.

However, less than half a minute after the crowd started to move, a strange scream suddenly sounded in the woods a hundred feet away.The sound was very similar to the sound of an arrow with a whistle tied to the shaft, but it didn't fly towards where everyone was, but passed across the woods in front of them.

In the next second, a series of explosions sounded, and a raging fire suddenly ignited on the canopy of the tall fang shirts, like torches soaked in grease.The violently burning flames charged into the sky, and a huge wall of flames over a hundred feet high seemed to be erected in front of everyone. The heat that hit their faces frightened the mercenaries so much that they did not dare to move forward.

Just when everyone panicked and wanted to figure out what happened, another strange noise came from the woods ahead.Different from the sharp whistling just now, this time the sound was very low, as if the boulder sleeping in the ground began to snore, and the sound even overwhelmed the crackling sound of the flame biting the branches.

"Ah, that's bad." Lancelow suddenly retracted the long sword into its sheath, and tightened the sword belt on his chest, "Put away the weapon first, and follow me closely when you run..."

"What?" Brutal asked subconsciously, "Where is the enemy?"

"The enemy cannot be defeated by weapons." Lancelow shook his head, his eyes fixed on the burning forest ahead, "Music, you are right..."

"Look at those trees!" As he spoke, the crowd screamed in horror. "The trees are alive, they're moving!"

When the scream spread, the mutation was already very obvious.I saw a humanoid face with a painful expression appearing on the bare trunks of those fang firs, and several thick, weird, arms-like branches protruded from both sides.They crunched and bent over, pulling their roots out of the ground - now two long legs.

The burning trees let out a deep, depressing, desperate and crazy roar, and rushed towards the crowd with big strides.That scene was really frightening, because the height of each treant was over fifty feet, and even the frost giants were less than half of them. In addition to the canopy burning with raging fire, everyone's heart almost trembled. out the same word.

Ruined.

However, among the mercenaries and demons, there is no shortage of lunatics whose thinking is different from ordinary people. Instead of dodging, some people rushed towards the tree man.Facing the giant leg that came crashing like a battering ram, they used their weapons to meet them without fear, like brave lumberjacks—and then flew out like beetles being bounced away.

Among them, the lucky ones landed on the open space beside them, the most seriously injured only had a few broken ribs, and were quickly helped up by other mercenaries; the unlucky ones happened to land on another tree man On the forward route, it makes a sound similar to the pizza that fell on the ground being stepped on by bare feet, and then turns into a ball of mud; or sticks to the bottom of the tree person's feet, leaving a trail on the ground with the continuous steps. A horrific drink of blood.

Everyone fell into a deep despair, that kind of strength is not something that can be resisted by muscle and steel, at least not by their mortal bodies.

"Don't panic! They're not coming for us!" Lancelot suddenly shouted loudly, with a special power in his voice that overwhelmed all the surrounding noises, "They're going to the River Styx! Don't force yourself Fight, just get out of the way!"

People in a panic will subconsciously follow the orders they hear, not to mention that the voice sounds so calm and calm, making people want to trust it.However, it is easy to say, but it is not so easy to execute in practice. There are choking smoke and panicked crowds everywhere, and it is not easy to avoid those crazy trees.

Fortunately in the misfortune, the mercenaries finally deployed their formation ahead of time, giving them a little room to maneuver. Although the treant like a giant windmill rushed forward, although the momentum was astonishing, the route was not difficult to predict. If you can stay calm, or There is a good chance of surviving it.

However, the densely packed demons who remained in place behind were not so lucky.The running tree man was like a rake plowing the ground, sweeping the entire area of ​​demons into the raging river Styx, and then jumped into it himself.The demons that fell into the water were like being swallowed by the waves before they could make any struggle. Most of them were cannon fodder like cowards, but there were also many middle-level demons mixed in, except for the bigger splashes. , the ending doesn't make any difference.

The mercenaries who escaped had no time to rejoice, and a new threat had already appeared.When those fang firs transformed into treants, many burning branches broke away from their bodies, leaving a blazing fire in place.At this moment, portals appeared in those flames, and countless beards in red cloaks walked out of them.They lined up neatly and approached the mercenaries with confident steps.

"Mercenaries!!" Sonam's shout was accompanied by the buzzing of the sharp blade unsheathed, "Kill them all!!!!"
