Chapter 378: Fallen God
Chapter 378: Fallen God
Seeing the hordes of mutant tree puppets rushing towards him, Xiao Jie said in a deep voice: "Everyone be careful, these monsters may have some special mechanisms, don't underestimate the enemy, generals group - go to guard!"
For this kind of monster with unknown abilities, we naturally have to use cannon fodder to test it out first.
This is the advantage of having a large population: you can always find various ways to deal with the situation.
This time, Xiao Jie was well prepared for the new land reclamation, with all kinds of supplies and props available. This is the advantage of a large guild.
At this time, several members of the military generals group summoned their guards one after another. At one command, two spearmen and four sword and shield players formed a formation and went forward.
In an instant, he started fighting with groups of tree puppets.
Poof! Click!
The long spears and single swords stabbed, chopped, and chopped at the mutated tree puppets, making dull sounds like chopping trees.
These mutated tree puppets obviously have a damage reduction effect. A spear stab will only do a few points of damage, and a knife slash is slightly better, at only a dozen points of damage.
On the contrary, these mutated tree puppets had great attack power. Their claws made of tree branches looked like wood, but the tips were extremely sharp. Coupled with their large numbers, they rushed forward and surrounded several guards. They beat them up and knocked down two of them in the blink of an eye, and the remaining ones were also in danger.
"President, shall we go up?" The Drunken Swordsman was eager to try. He didn't get any credit in the last village, so he was naturally looking forward to the opportunity to show himself this time.
Xiao Jie said: "Why are you in such a hurry? Haven't you noticed? These monsters have very high defenses, so we must use heavy weapons. However, there is nothing special about the attack method. It's just an ordinary skill attack..."
Xiao Jie turned around and glanced at the team behind him. There were not many people in the second regiment who could use heavy weapons, such as axes and hammers. Because they were slow to use and easy to be caught by monsters, most experts didn't like to use them, so few people practiced them.
Only "I Want to Become an Immortal" and "Splitting the Mountain" can be considered as this type of close combat.
However, it is not realistic for the two of them to defeat so many tree puppets.
Fortunately, there is a wizard here.
Since it is a plant-type monster, it must be afraid of fire.
"Deidara, this wave depends on your performance."
Deidara was a little embarrassed, "Brother Feng, I'm about to reach level 30."
"What's wrong with 30? What profession do you want to advance to?"
"Five Elements Heavenly Master, but I haven't figured out what the requirements are for this Five Elements Heavenly Master, so..."
Xiao Jie thought to himself, there is so much to do.
"What are you afraid of? They are just small monsters under level 20. You won't get any experience points. Just attack them and you'll be done."
Deidara finally reacted.
"Got it, here we go!
The magic of the five elements, the raging fire becomes burning, the flames are raging, turning bones into dust, obey my command - the burning flames dance wildly! "
As Deidara waved his staff, a pillar of fire shot up into the sky, instantly engulfing the tree golems. Then the fire pillar began to spin like a whirlwind, spreading continuously. Flames gushed out, and the tree golems in the flames made crackling sounds and were ignited into moving torches.
Deidara waved his staff and performed crazy actions like a shaman, controlling the flames to continuously draw more tree puppets into it.
The guards were also burned to ashes. When the flames died down, only ashes were left on the ground.
Xiao Jie thought that it was really cool to have a wizard in the team. The defense of these dozens of tree puppets was very strong. If they were to fight each other face to face, it would probably take a while. Now they were all burned to death by a big move. It was really powerful.
"Damn it, my maximum level guard!" a general screamed.
Xiao Jie said: "It's okay, I'll reimburse you for the money I spent on recruiting guards later, let's go into the village!"
To be on the safe side, Xiao Jie summoned Daju as well.
The team slowly walked towards the village. Tree puppets kept popping out from corners and attacking everyone. However, these scattered tree puppets could not pose any threat to the pioneering team which had an absolute advantage in levels and numbers. Although the tree puppets themselves had a damage reduction effect, their level and health were limited after all, and they could not withstand the full-force attack of everyone.
They were knocked to the ground one after another after a series of knife and sword slashes. Xiao Jie led a group of wizards to the center and fought their way to the center of the village in one breath. As they got closer and closer to the big willow tree, Xiao Jie became more and more alert.
When he arrived at the village chief's house, Xiao Jie was stunned.
In order to recapture the village, you must eliminate the monster forces entrenched in the village, and then click on the stronghold flag at the location of the village chief's mansion to complete the recapture.
However, at this moment, the village chief's mansion has been completely swallowed up by the branches of the willow tree. The branches of the willow tree have penetrated the roof and walls of the mansion, growing randomly and wildly, almost becoming one with the village chief's mansion. The horizontal branches have made the main body of the building fragmented, but at the same time it has maintained basic integrity under the binding of the willow branches.
Xiao Jie looked at the huge willow tree in front of him. Anything abnormal is a demon, let alone in this world of demons and monsters. There is definitely something wrong with this willow tree.
"Everyone be careful, check the surroundings to see if there is anything special."
It stands to reason that this kind of monster force must have a BOSS, but no one knows where it is hidden.
I walked around the Willow Mansion for a while and suddenly asked curiously, "Hey, Brother Feng, there are a lot of talismans around. Do they look familiar?"
Xiao Jie looked in the direction where I would become an immortal, and sure enough, about ten meters away from the willow tree, he could see many stone stakes inserted in a circle around the willow tree. These stones were tied with ropes, and many talismans were hung on them, but these ropes were all broken, and the talismans hanging on them were dragged to the ground. Due to the long time, the yellow paper had almost become black, and the cinnabar runes on it had become blurred.
However, you can still vaguely see the original layout of these talismans and stone pillars.
It should be connected to the willow tree with a rope, and the talisman should be in a circle around the willow tree - wait a minute, why is this style and shape so similar to the one in Ginkgo Village?
Xiao Jie suddenly remembered that there was a circle of talismans surrounding the ginkgo tree in the Novice Village.
Could it be that there was a similar existence under this willow tree?
But why are all these talismans broken?
Squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak! Following the sound of branches rubbing against each other and the sound of the door hinge turning, the almost scrapped wooden door of the village chief's house was slowly pushed open from the inside, and a branch was surprisingly growing on the door handle.
Then a tree puppet slowly walked out from the door, swaying from side to side. The clothes on this tree puppet were very complete and seemed to be made of silk. It was wearing a gorgeous robe and a crown on its head. Its belly was bulging, and compared with the other tree puppets, its body looked particularly huge.
Lao Liutou (Chief of Tree Puppet Village): Elite level 18. HP: 900.
From the mouth that had turned into a tree, intermittent human voices could be heard.
"Who is... outside... demons... robbers... you can't take away... all this..."
Hey, he can actually talk. Xiao Jie was just about to start a conversation to see if he could get some information out of him, but he didn't expect that everyone around him suddenly shouted and rushed forward. Swords, spears, hidden weapons, and magic spells all attacked the tree puppet village chief.
Damn, what the hell?
Xiao Jie was stunned at first, but reacted immediately. Haomie and Xiayi Wushuang from Heiyan Village both killed the bandit mini-boss and got reward points.
I guess these people want to follow suit.
Unfortunately, the tree puppet village chief in front of him was just an elite monster. How could he withstand such a ravage? He was hit by countless attacks in an instant and was almost chopped into pieces.
"Fuck! Can't you wait for it to finish talking?"
"Huh? Why?"
"Brother Feng, how many points do we get for this?"
Xiao Jie was speechless: "What the hell are you doing? You have so many people fighting an elite monster. This isn't even a BOSS. Stay away from the corpse. You can become an immortal if you want."
I was about to become an immortal and had just wiped the corpse when suddenly something strange happened.
With a loud bang, the ground suddenly exploded, and a huge root suddenly rushed out from the ground, wrapping around me and trying to become an immortal.
My desire to become an immortal was quite quick.
Mysterious Ice Talisman! He froze the root in mid-air with a single move of his hand, and then chopped it with an axe, splitting the root into pieces.
However, this was just the beginning. Roots and vines continued to sprout from the ground, sweeping towards everyone like countless tentacles. The willow branches in the sky seemed to be alive and lashed down madly.
The entire huge willow tree was wriggling, and the village chief's mansion collapsed in an instant. Broken bricks and tiles were shaken off, revealing a huge human face twisted on the willow tree behind the mansion.
At the same time, a blood bar appeared above the willow tree.
Rotten Willow God (Fallen Deity): Level 18 Earthbound God. HP 6600.
Holy shit, what the hell is this? An earthbound god?
Xiao Jie was startled.
This was the first time he had seen monsters related to gods and demons in this game. Fortunately, he had played games for so many years, so no matter how surprised he was, he still had some gaming experience. He thought quickly, first of all, this Falling Sun Plain was just an average adventure map, and it was impossible for this map to have any monsters that were too powerful.
Second, if he is only level 18, it shows that his strength is not too strong. Even gods and demons have to abide by the rules of the game.
Moreover, the Earthbound God - although it doesn't sound very powerful, it shouldn't be too outrageous and he can definitely fight.
However, to be cautious, Xiao Jie decided to keep his distance and slowly consider tactics.
"Everyone stand back! An Ran, transform and take control!"
When Xiao Jie shouted, the people who had been frightened for a long time retreated to the outside of the village as if they had been pardoned.
An Ran clasped her hands together and a green light suddenly appeared on her body.
The magic of the devil takes on a new form - the spider spirit!
It suddenly transformed into a giant spider spirit.
This move made the players exclaim in surprise. It was the first time for most of them to see An Ran use this move. The huge spider that was five or six meters long was really scary.
After An Ran transformed, she sprayed a spider web at the Willow God without saying a word.
Magic—the dragnet of heaven and earth!
The branches all over the sky were suddenly entangled by the spider webs, becoming tangled into a ball and no longer flexible.
"Deidara—burn!" Xiao Jie shouted.
Deidara was waiting for this sentence, thinking that the reward points for this round would probably be over 100. It was only right that I could get points against such a plant-type BOSS.
The Art of the Five Elements——Dance of Burning Flames!
The pillar of fire shot up into the sky again, and this time it burned more comfortably. The huge body of the Willow God was completely engulfed by the flames. You should know that many AOE skills in this game have multiple stages of damage judgment. In this case, the larger the body, the higher the damage bonus when attacked by AOE skills.
At this time, pillars of fire kept falling on the Willow God. The Willow God was shaking violently and his blood was dropping rapidly.
Xiao Jie watched as more than a thousand blood points were lost in the blink of an eye, and thought to himself that he was not that strong after all.
At this time, the flames ignited the branches of the willow tree, and the spider webs stuck on them also turned into flames.
The willow tree that had lost its branches was exposed to countless festering scars, from which flowed purple-red juice, as if it were blood.
"Fools...become...my...servants..."
The willow tree suddenly shook violently, and purple-red mist gushed out of its scar.
Supernatural power—saprophytic miasma!
The poisonous fog continued to spread throughout the sky, scaring everyone into retreating frantically. No one wanted to know what the effect of the fog was, and even Xiao Jie didn't dare to try it - according to what the Willow God said, this thing seemed to be able to transform humans into tree puppets.
"Daju, wind calling technique!"
Ouch! The big orange bird roared, and suddenly a gust of wind blew the poisonous fog back.
However, although the poisonous fog was blown back, it still continued to emerge and everyone did not dare to get close.
Some started shooting arrows and throwing hidden weapons, but the willow god had amazing defense, and the arrows and hidden weapons only deducted a few points of blood from it.
This thing can actually restore blood. The scarlet light keeps moving along the roots inserted into the ground towards the body of the willow tree. The blood volume fluctuates and does not decrease at all.
"Deidara, keep burning. Everyone, use kerosene pots and gunpowder pots!"
Xiao Jie prepared sufficient supplies for this land reclamation operation, which finally came in handy.
Everyone had a gunpowder pot and a fire oil pot, so they all turned into bomb-throwing experts and threw bombs at the Willow God frantically.
Boom boom boom! Balls of flames kept exploding on the Willow God.
The willow god simply pulled up the tree by its roots, and countless roots squirmed wildly on the ground, like millions of legs, rushing towards everyone.
However, its huge size makes it extremely slow and it cannot crawl fast at all.
Become a sitting duck.
"My descendants... wake up!" The willow god suddenly pushed all its roots into the ground, as if brewing some powerful move.
Magical power——Wansen formation!
"Brother Feng, look!"
Xiao Jie also noticed that the trees around the village were twisting as if they were coming alive.
The Willow Bottom Village is surrounded by wilderness and forests. It would be very troublesome if all of them were resurrected.
"Whoever has a big move, interrupt it for me!"
Several powerful melee fighters swung their swords at the Willow God, and although they dealt a lot of damage, there was no sign of interruption.
Strawberry Coke danced wildly with the peach wood sword in his hand. Wherever the sword passed, it left traces of light in the air. After one set of dances, a huge rune appeared in the air.
The fifth-level Taoist magic—the demon-suppressing talisman, here!
With a swing of the sword, the golden talisman flew head-on towards the Willow God.
Boom! The spell left a red mark on the Willow God like a branding iron.
The willow god's entire body shook violently, and the surrounding trees that were reviving suddenly returned to calm.
"Well done, keep going, everyone!"
"Impossible... mortal... I will not lose..."
The Willow God let out a low roar and shook off many tree puppets from his body.
"Melee team, stop the monsters!"
The generals group and the sword group formed a line of defense. The tree puppets were too low in level and had no skills. They rushed forward madly but could not get into the back row at all.
Several wizards now became the main output, especially Deidara, who blasted out all kinds of fire spells like a turret.
The Willow God's health bar finally reached the bottom.
"No...I won't give up...ah"
Boom! The huge willow tree collapsed with a loud bang, and countless roots were pushed out from the ground. The rotten roots huddled together, no longer able to move.
The rotting Willow God exuded a black aura, like a huge pile of floating corpses.
[System prompt: Kill the evil fallen god 'Willow God', Longxiang Kingdom's popularity in Luoyang Plain has increased by 2%, now 5%. ]
Previously, I got a 3% increase in my hope after taking down a Black Rock Villager, but now I only got a 2% increase after killing a Willow God. It seems that this thing is indeed not of high rank.
Fortunately, regaining the village can gain some popularity.
Looking at the village that was almost razed to the ground, Xiao Jie felt relieved but helpless. Could such a village still be occupied?
I don't know if the flagpole can be found.
"Chengxian, touch the corpse - start recording. Everyone else, follow me!"
Everyone came to the original location of the village chief's old house, which had turned into a pile of ruins.
Hey, there really is some.
Then I saw the shadow of a flagpole standing at the location of the village chief's house.
Xiao Jie quickly clicked the mouse.
[System prompt: You have not yet completely eliminated the monster forces in this village, so it cannot be recaptured.]
