Chapter 927: Chapter 925: Condemned for Being Powerful
Seeing the vines appear, Bobbobovic’s face visibly stiffened for a moment. Upon realizing the deception, he looked at the Giant Tree Tin Wood and shouted painfully, “You deceived me?”
The giant tree did not respond, and the vines continued to approach Bobbobovic.
“Fine! Just you wait!” Bobbobovic glared viciously at the giant tree, leaving with a resentful remark.
The next moment, he let out a loud shout, forcefully striking an Air Missile underfoot, and using the recoil to leap away, quickly evading the entangling black vines.
Then, taking advantage of the brief moment airborne, he pulled out a bottle of a pink potion he had used before and poured it into his mouth.
The potion entered his body, energy erupted, reaching the top of Bobbobovic’s head and forming a watermelon-sized fireball. This update ıs available on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⁂𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚⁂𝔫𝔢𝔱
Bobbobovic, with the fireball above him, glared as he descended, swinging a punch heavily onto the black vines.
Energy injected within, the struck black vine rapidly swelled, exploded, died, with fragments and mucus splattering in all directions.
The other black vines continued their assault, and Bobbobovic was fearless, attacking with both hands and feet, occasionally releasing Energy Missiles. At this moment, powerful anger surged within him, enhancing his combat strength by at least half.
The result was that within a short time, all the more than a dozen attacking black vines had been killed.
At this point, the fireball atop Bobbobovic had just extinguished, and even his bare scalp still retained residual warmth.
On the other side, Richard and Heluo weren’t far behind, almost simultaneously solving the attacking vines.
Speaking of which, the vines’ attack and defensive power weren’t very strong, just quite fast. As long as the initial surprise attack wasn’t successful, it was difficult to cause much trouble for Third-level Wizard level individuals.
With the area cleared, Bobbobovic cast a sharp gaze toward the giant tree, biting his teeth as if controlling his emotions, taking a deep breath, and said seriously, “I’ll ask you one question now, the method you mentioned to regrow hair, is it true or not? If it’s real, I can forgive your previous deception, and we can still talk.”
The giant tree gave no answer, looking at Bobbobovic as if he were a fool, slightly shaking its branches, behind which hundreds of Demonized Creatures immediately roared and charged forward.
Meanwhile, in the distance—at the edge of the fire field, tens of thousands of beasts created a hundred-meter fire barrier, then upon signal, turned in unison to charge at Richard and the others, joining the Demonized Creatures in a pincer attack.
“You really were deceiving me,” Bobbobovic shouted, gritting his teeth, angrily facing the Demonized Creatures.
A Demonized Wild Bull charged up, with a “bang” it was flipped to the ground by Bobbobovic’s punch. Then Bobbobovic grabbed one of the Demonized Wild Bull’s front legs, swinging it like a sandbag among the Demonized Creatures.
A cacophony of sounds filled the air.
Heluo glanced at Bobbobovic’s performance, confirmed he could handle it, and didn’t assist. With a light step, she effortlessly leapt toward the mass of beasts behind them.
Upon landing, she extended her arms, releasing a large swath of crimson, dyeing the air blood-red. All beasts that came into contact had no chance to struggle, screaming as they fell, dying in swathes.
The outer beasts, undeterred, became enraged, stepping over the corpses of their companions, continuing to charge and launch attacks on Heluo.
Heluo narrowed her eyes slightly, with a stern face unleashing wave after wave of crimson, enveloping more beasts and reaping their lives.
The demonized creatures and numerous beasts on both battlefields were contained.
Richard was not careless about this, reciting a spell, conjuring glowing points that formed the Achilles Armor, Emmsley’s Shield, and Langdonick’s Spear trio.
Richard wielded the Langdonick’s Spear, repeatedly striking to help Bobbobovic and Heluo resolve potential threats, while closely monitoring the Giant Tree Tin Wood’s movements, wary of any further tricks.
However, even after all the Demonized Creatures and beasts were killed, the Giant Tree Tin Wood made no further moves, merely watching silently, leaving Richard both puzzled and more cautious.
In his thoughts, the Giant Tree Tin Wood should not so easily abandon resistance.
The three stood in unison before the Giant Tree Tin Wood, with Bobbobovic half-covered in blood, glaring at the giant tree and speaking: “You fraud, see how powerful we are now? You thought you could ambush us, use demonized creatures and beasts to kill us, impossible—we’re stronger than you imagined! Now it’s time for you to pay the price! For murdering, cheating me, doing all sorts of evil, I’ll tear you down and burn you as wood!
A gust of murky air expelled from the giant tree’s trunk, buzzing noises rang out, as the Giant Tree Tin Wood spoke again. At this moment, it felt neither guilty nor afraid, only speaking in an emotionless tone to Bobbobovic: “I kill, I deceive you, is it really doing all sorts of evil? In my eyes, it’s not, it’s merely choices I make for survival. Killing is to avoid my exposure, deceiving you is to eliminate you and similarly avoid my exposure. Everything I’ve done is for my survival. Wanting to survive, is that wrong?
I want to tell you, I have existed in this forest for a long time, even before the forest itself. My life is extremely long, beyond your imagination, I am the true master here. If it weren’t for intruders like you, I could live quietly here for hundreds or thousands of years, this is my home! You break into my home, destroy my property, and you still don’t allow me to fight back? After all, is it me doing all the evil, or is it you?”
“This…” Bobbobovic was immediately stumped, evidently not expecting a tree to be so articulate, he widened his eyes, not knowing how to respond.
Next to him, Heluo suddenly spoke, addressing the Giant Tree Tin Wood: “From your perspective, it’s indeed us intruders doing all the evil, and there’s indeed nothing wrong with wanting to survive.”
“So, you admit you are the wrong side?” The Giant Tree Tin Wood was surprised, glancing at Heluo, “So what are you planning to do now?”
Heluo stared at the Giant Tree Tin Wood for about two seconds, then slowly gave her answer: “Kill you.”
“What did you say?” Every part of the giant tree shook together, it questioned excitedly, “You said you want to kill me? Even when the fault lies with you, you still want to kill me?”
“Yes.” Heluo nodded, confirming, her gaze growing cold, “The fault being ours is true, and wanting to live should be respected, but… your existence itself is a threat—a major threat to my kind. For safety, you must die. This isn’t about right or wrong, but a matter of one life being wary of another. You are powerful, but as a life different from me, the stronger you are, the more you should die, that’s the reasoning.”
The giant tree remained silent.
