Lord Highlander

   Chapter 1235 1222. Combat

  A group of black mages standing on the altar gathered on the altar, entangled by these infinitely growing roots, the black mages suddenly turned pale with fright, they began to struggle, holding staffs in their hands, and kept shouting.

  The crazy-looking black magician's eyes became even more frenzied at this time, and he threw himself at the big tree without hesitation.

  The flesh and soul of the black mages are constantly pouring into this tree of desire...

  It also seemed to feel the crisis, frantically absorbing nutrients from the surroundings, and the hematoma with a human face hanging on the branch of this big tree was also wriggling, and the face inside seemed to want to break free from the hematoma.

As for the mages on the altar, many of their bodies have been sucked into mummified corpses by the giant tree. When their lives have not ended, their flesh and blood have become the nourishment of the giant tree, and their souls have also been absorbed by the giant tree. In the body, new blood tumors condensed on the branches, and the faces that appeared on those blood tumors were impressively the appearance of these mages before they died.

  The crazy black mage's body was completely wrapped by the giant tree, and his whole body would continuously melt into the giant tree.

  The frenzy in the eyes of the black magician was covered by two completely opposite expressions of pain and joy.

  He alternately struggles and enjoys…

  And this giant tree is still sticking its roots into the blood pools on the left and right sides. It is desperately absorbing the nutrients in the blood pools. It seems that the power injected is far from enough for the big tree to fully recover.

  After the mad magician merged into the big tree, his face appeared on the trunk of the dead tree, gradually becoming clear from blurred, and that face suddenly opened his blood-red eyes.

  The pair of scarlet eyes fixedly stared at the approaching Suldak, and the face of the giant tree showed a ferocious and world-weary expression, and shouted at Suldak:

   "Knight, come and plunge into the darkness, I will give you the power of darkness, and you can regain eternal life in the darkness."

   As he spoke, without even waiting for Suldak to make any reaction, several soft and tough tree vines stretched out towards Suldak, and black flames were burning on these vines.

  Suldak also felt the powerful coercion released by the big tree on the altar at this moment. He didn't expect these magicians from the Black Magic Priory to cultivate such a strange giant tree here.

The magic-weave structure on his body emitted a strong magical glow, and the broad sword in his hand slashed on the vines that wound up, but the vines were very tough, and the broad sword in Suldak's hand was stained with black fire. Suddenly, a corrosive force rushed towards Suldak along the black flame.

  Suldak released a strong force of holy light, trying to disperse the black flames.

   It's just that these black flames are not the corrosive breath on the Shadow Arrow, they are stained on Suldak's broadsword, and even Suldak's arms can feel the blazing heat.

  Suldak wanted to draw back the broadsword, but was tightly entangled by a tree vine.

   Several shield warriors who followed were **** by giant tree vines...

Under the black flames, these dozen or so shield warriors were melted into a pile of ashes by the flames of the giant tree before they even had time to shout, and their souls were quickly pulled out of their bodies, becoming giant trees a part of.

  At this moment, the water shield covering Suldak's body quickly melted away, and the flames had already begun to spread on her arms.

Facing such a huge tree that could absorb souls, Suldak didn't dare to be careless. When he released a wave of holy light from his body, he also released the holy light floating above the door of the sea of ​​spirits. Armor activated.

  With the spiritual power that Suldak currently possesses, after he wears this set of holy armor, he can only last less than half a minute.

  A phantom of an angel appeared behind Suldak. The angel folded his arms around his chest, as if praying. At this time, countless holy lights surrounded the phantom of the angel.

  The next second, a beam of sacred light descended from the sky, passed through the thick rock wall, and poured into Suldak's body.

'pray'

Suldak's body was filled with this intense holy light, and a layer of battle armor shone with holy light appeared on his body. The black flames that had spread to his arms faded instantly, and countless tree vines burning with black flames entangled his body. Withered and withered quickly in front of the holy armor.

   It's just that as the vines continue to wither, the vines of this giant tree continue to grow and become more and more...

  The face on the tree trunk stared at Suldak, no longer continued to say those seductive words, but frantically pulled out the vines from the body like staring at the deadly enemy.

Those blood tumors also began to open pairs of blood-red eyes, opened their mouths wide, showing sharp teeth, and even some dead branches turned into claws, gathering towards Suldak from all directions, quickly wrapping his body completely stand up.

   When Aphrodite, who was following behind, saw the big tree, her expression became very dignified.

When she saw that the giant tree pulled out countless vines, it entwined Suldak, who was exuding strong power of holy light and wearing sacred armor, into a huge wooden ball. When he approached the giant tree, he immediately said to Naomi beside him:

   "We have to go help him..."

She didn't even wait for Naomi to make any response, she rushed out from the back corner, and as a huge magic circle emerged under her feet, Aphrodite condensed a huge black handle on her chest with her fingers. The magic sword came, and with the end of Aphrodite's incantation, the black magic sword with countless death breaths fell on the giant tree.

At the same time, Naomi, the necromancer, is also manipulating the undead spells. Under Naomi's control, the mummies that fell on the altar suddenly burned the fire of the soul in the eye sockets of the mummies. Struggling to get up, they walked towards the big tree and surrounded them. These magicians did not have swords on their bodies, but they all carried daggers with them.

  These skeleton warriors grabbed their daggers and stabbed at the face of the tree trunk desperately.

The Tree of Desire concentrated all its power to suppress the power of the holy light on Suldak, but was chopped to pieces by the black magic sword summoned by Aphrodite, and now it was surrounded by more than 20 skeleton warriors. The dagger pierced the tree trunk, and streams of bright red blood flowed out.

  The originally gathered power is gradually disintegrating, and this tree of desire can only let out a crazy roar in helplessness:

   "Who betrayed Amozdan? You and the undead will not end well."

  Aphrodite did not cast the second spell, and she also pulled Naomi away. Before running away, Naomi also took out a bottle of corruption potion and poured it into a pool of blood.

  The bearded Edgar and the shield warriors of the second echelon had already rushed in, and all of them rushed towards the big tree, first to rescue Suldak who was trapped in the wooden ball.

  At this time, the Tree of Desire was still growing vines, as if it wanted to absorb the lives and souls of the surrounding shield warriors, but the tentacles were cut off by the warriors with their long swords.

  The skeleton warrior stabbed the human face on the tree trunk from the altar.

The entire tree of desire was already stained red with blood. Suldak broke free from the entanglement of the tree and vines. The holy armor on his body had completely disappeared. Due to the consumption of a lot of mental power, he was in a trance. Seeing everything ahead is a bit blurry.

  He wiped vigorously the blood that flowed into his eyes, his nostrils and mouth seemed to be filled with salty liquid, and his ears kept buzzing.

  Helped by a shield warrior, he climbed out of the tree vine, and saw the tree of desire, under the siege of a group of skeletons, howling continuously.

  The crown of the Tree of Desire was split into a huge wound, and countless blood tumors were shattered.

  Suldak stood up resolutely, strode towards the tree of desire, holding a broadsword shining with the power of holy light, took the opportunity to cut down the big tree...

  With one sword strike, the bark of the tree collapsed.

  Two swords, a gap appeared in the trunk of this big tree.

  Three swords...

  Until the giant tree on the altar fell completely in a pool of blood, Suldak was in a trance, pointing to the blood-stained giant tree precariously and said:

   "Burn it..."

  After saying this sentence, Suldak felt his eyes were incandescent, and then completely lost consciousness.

  Wait until Sia rushed over, checked the wounds of Suldak who was in a coma, and then said calmly: "Let him lie down for a while, he is exhausted mentally, and he will recover after a short rest!"

  …

   When Suldak woke up, he found himself lying on a bed in a wooden house.

The furnishings in the wooden house are relatively simple, with only a bed, a table and a chair. He lifted the thin blanket covering his body. When he sat up, he still felt dizzy in his head, but there was no pain in his body. Several traumas were also carefully bandaged.

  He saw the broadsword and shield beside the bed, sat down on the chair, and drank a glass of water.

Memories poured in like a tide, and then Suldak heard the noise outside, pushed open the door of the wooden house, and found that he was still in the black magician's research institute, but at this time the heavy armored infantry soldiers were about to clean This battle is over.

   The noise came from the entrance of the cave.

   Walking over, I found that it was a group of Earl Petunia's private army who wanted to break in, but was stopped by Edgar the beard.

  Suldak strode up, and the bearded Edgar hurriedly saluted Suldak.

   "How about the casualties?" Suldak tried to keep his tone as calm as possible.

The bearded Edgar said: "Thirty-five brothers died, but there are not many injured brothers this time. Miss Siya has already treated them, and the situation is not too serious. It's just that they failed to capture prisoners this time. Those black magicians All the masters died on the altar, and there is a dungeon over there, and the conditions of the personnel inside are not very good."

  Suldak sighed. If Andrew and Samira were here, it is estimated that so many people would not die this time.

   "How many people did you find in the dungeon?" He asked casually.

   "Sixteen!" Edgar said.

  Suldak just nodded, indicating that he knew, but did not ask.

  Looking at the pair of knights at the entrance of the cave, Suldak asked, "What's going on with them?"

  Edgar replied immediately: "They said they belonged to Earl Petunia, so they wanted to come in to investigate the situation here, but we stopped them!"

  The knight officer also took the opportunity to take a step forward and protested loudly to Suldak: "My lord, this is the territory of Earl Petunia, we have the right to investigate all places on this land..."

  Suldak turned back slowly, stared at the knight officer with piercing eyes, and said coldly with a straight face:

   "It's almost gone..."
