Under the guidance of Elizabeth, who was familiar with the road, she, Wu Ming, and Siegfried advanced for a certain distance in the hollow at the bottom of the big tree hole, and passed through a thick layer of air roots woven from the inside of the big tree hole. After the mesh structure, we finally reach the place where the core root system grows.
In the center of the network structure where countless aerial roots are connected and thick roots gather, behind the layers of plant roots blocking and covering up, there is a section about one meter long and two meters thick. The whole body emits a noble and sacred hazy golden light, as if made by The outline of the core roots cast by light looks like a huge tree root or a bit like the tentacles of some kind of mollusk. As the core roots slowly agitate, expand and contract, countless mysterious and complex symbols and runes appear and die around it. , the tide formed by energy rises and falls around it, forming a picture that makes people deeply feel the beauty of divinity.
Although the source of all the root systems and aerial roots in the big tree cave grew from this light-forged root, and even the outer layer of tree trunks grew from the branch roots extending from it, but based on appearance alone It seems that no one would confuse the painting style of the light-cast roots with the dark and dark brown rough tree roots around them, and regard them as the same thing.
What is even more eye-catching is something growing on that piece of light-forged root - it is a crystal clear, bright red bead as big as an adult's head, and it is embedded in that core piece of root. The middle part of the body beats rhythmically with the instigation, expansion and contraction of the light-cast roots.
"I thought that the tree of life here would be like the one over there, turning into a mountain of meat with countless fleshy tentacles. The internal space would be like being inside a living thing, and occupied by a large number of blasphemous, twisted, and unspeakable monsters. And guarded..." Siegfried leaned over and hid behind a network of air roots, curiously looking at the things in front of her through the gaps in the network. It was clear that she was facing a plant. The root system, but he lowered his body and voice as if he was afraid of being seen or heard by the other party, "I didn't expect that the inside was so normal, and the core root system could actually feel like this..."
The dragon girl was silent for two seconds, as if she was thinking about the words that could suitably describe what she heard and saw. After a long time, she sighed as if giving in to something: "Holy."
After getting used to the blasphemous and twisted tree of life in her home world, which liked to create a large number of deformed monsters and indescribable creatures, this was the first time she saw a tree of life with such a normal style, and she was a little uncomfortable with it.
Just when the dragon girl was briefly immersed in the shock caused by the strong contrast, Wu Ming's voice penetrated into her ears faintly.
"Don't make trouble. The taste of your tree of life has been completely distorted by the powerful spiritual pollution of your dear friend Ji. The tree of life here is obviously its original style..."
Siegfried suddenly blushed (because of shame): "You..."
Elizabeth also quietly touched the front without Wu Ming and Siegfei noticing. The stirring and stretching roots firmly caught the girl's attention. She sucked away the saliva that was about to flow out. After twitching his nose a few times, he smiled excitedly and said with a silly smile, "It smells good."
"Then you're welcome!" As he said that, the silly girl who was squatting behind a piece of Qi Root Net just now and giggling had a flash of light in her eyes, and her eyes suddenly turned into green pupils. She tore open the Qi Root Net in front of her and rushed out: "Brother, I will take the lead in charging and have a feast! You will follow later!"
When both of them were caught off guard, Eliza, who was still chatting at the corner of her mouth, had already rushed through several layers of air root nets. This rough and undisguised invasion directly triggered drastic changes in the core root system!
In an instant, the entire network structure composed of aerial roots and plant roots came to life. The dense aerial roots and plant roots were like wriggling tentacles, rolling towards Elizabeth at the front, while Wu Ming and Qi The plant roots around Ge Fei also woke up from their standby state, and were ready to attack them!
"What a waste of time!" Wu Ming failed to catch Elizabeth who ran out, so he could only jump out and pull the shield and mental filter to the maximum, and bounced away the surrounding plant roots that wanted to capture him. , followed by Elizabeth who rushed up and shouted: "Brother Fei! Rush B!"
"Although I don't quite understand what you mean by the strange words! But based on the current situation, I probably know what to do!" Siegfried firmly grasped the black iron sword and turned around, cutting off all the roots of the approaching plants, and then Fine dragon scales quickly grew on her body, and dragon horns, wings, and tail grew from her body in sequence. As the dragon transformation progressed, her eyes also turned into vertical dragon pupils glowing with golden light. Then the dragon girl took a deep breath. Taking a breath, the magic power that was instantly refined, extracted, and strengthened was gathered into the dragon's lungs.
Then he spit out a mouthful of hot dragon breath!
The blazing dragon's breath flame was shaped into a fire dragon under her restraint, and burned along the road Wu Ming and Elizabeth ran. Just when the fire dragon was about to catch up with the two and devour them, Siegfried's precise and precise attack Under the control of the error, the flame that was originally advancing straight suddenly branched off into several branches from the side when it approached Wu Ming, who was half a body behind Elizabeth. It was as if it deliberately bypassed the two people's forward route, cleverly forming a circle around it. A ring of fire surpassed the two people from the outside, burned a bunch of plant roots coming from the side into ashes, and then gathered into the original fire dragon one position in front of Elizabeth, continuing towards the direction of the core roots. Burn and advance!
Wherever the dragon's breath swept, there was no grass, but the two people running forward were not burned by any sparks at all. They were unscathed, and even their running speed was not slowed down by the appearance of the flames.
Facing the dragon's breath fire dragon charging fiercely, the core roots seemed to have sensed the crisis, and immediately recalled the plant roots that were still idle around the body and had not been captured outwards to attack Elizabeth and Wu Ming. These roots were connecting with each other. After receiving the vitality from the core roots, they grow like crazy at a speed visible to the naked eye. Aerial roots and aerial roots, tree roots and tree roots merge with each other in the rapid growth, forming a dense surface in the blink of an eye. Airtight 'shield wall'!
Then, the blazing white fire dragon, baring its teeth and claws, silently hit the first 'shield wall' grown from tree roots!
The first layer of wooden shield wall was burned by the high temperature of the blazing white fire dragon. It only lasted for one second before it was burned into a pile of fly ash and scattered everywhere under the instigation of the hot air. However, the first layer of shield wall was burned so easily and was not destroyed. There was no way for the blazing white fire dragon, because what was exposed next was the second layer of wooden shield wall that was close to it!
The second layer of wooden shield wall did not last for more than two seconds before it was incinerated into a pile of ashes scattered everywhere, followed by the third layer, the fourth layer, the fifth layer...
Although most of these wooden walls cannot block the advancement of the Blazing White Fire Dragon, they can extremely effectively weaken its power. As more shield walls are burned, the size of the Blazing White Fire Dragon becomes smaller and smaller. When the tenth When the seven-layer wooden shield wall was completely burned through, revealing the core roots hiding behind, the fire dragon composed of pure dragon breath flames also consumed the last of its magic power, and was no longer able to do anything to the core roots behind the shield wall. He launched an effective attack, but struggled in vain for two times before even being able to touch the core roots in front of him before dissipating into the air.
But this breath of dragon opened the way for the next people!
Wu Ming turned into a black shadow and emerged from the hole burned through by the blazing white fire dragon. The moment he landed, he did not choose to rush over with a shield, because he knew that this thing would not use his own containment space at all. He simply stood there and expanded the shield to the limit. The over-expanded shield directly pushed all the enemy targets away, preventing them from moving forward and invading the range where the shield was deployed. He used this method to clear the air. A smooth road has been opened!
"Silly! Brother Fei! I'll open the way and block these roots! You hurry up and destroy it!"
"Brother! I'm trapped!"
Elizabeth bared her teeth and shouted. When she crossed the sixteenth level of the shield wall, the remaining roots on the shield wall wrapped around her left ankle, restricting her next actions, and there were still a lot of roots on that side. The vitality-less wooden shield wall began to fall apart, and turned into countless plant roots that were squirming and spreading towards Elizabeth.
But as soon as she finished her cry for help, a black shadow fell from the sky, and the thick and cold sword edge was wrapped in a violent air current and struck down with a sword!
Before the powerful and heavy sword actually landed, the air blade formed by squeezing the air had already cut off the plant roots around Elizabeth's ankle. Immediately after the air blade landed, Wu The sharp heavy sword completely cut off the roots that were attached to the lotus root!
Siegfried, who followed closely, cut off the plant roots on Elizabeth's ankle with a sword. He turned around and sprayed dragon breath on the spreading plant roots: "Go! I'll settle the score with you later!"
"Okay~" Elizabeth grinned happily after escaping from the shackles of the tree roots. She rushed to the light cast root in a few steps, grabbed the root with both hands, and then bit the light cast root hard. On the bright red orb of roots!
Click!
“It’s really delicious!”
The sound of something brittle like glass or crystal breaking, and Elizabeth's praise of the taste of the food echoed in the hollow at the bottom of the big tree hole for a long time.
Click!
There was another crisp sound, and Elizabeth had chewed a piece of the bright red orb. Then, the orb, which was the size of an adult's head, turned into something to feed her stomach in three or two mouthfuls, accompanied by a simultaneous sound that echoed in everyone's mouth. The sharp and shrill wails and howls in my mind, those wriggling and spreading roots, and the ever-growing aerial roots, stopped moving at the same moment!
