Is the mecha just a limiter? Muscle Lock, Activate!

The river appeared neither deep nor wide, and the current wasn't swift, suggesting it could be easily forded to reach the opposite bank.

Wang Chu slowly raised his eyebrows, gradually scanning the riverbank towards the other side.

Upon clearly seeing the appearance of the opposite bank, his eyebrows furrowed tightly.

The ground on the opposite bank seemed to have already transformed into a desolate, pitch-black wasteland due to the influence of the Abyss's aura.

The flowers, plants, and trees that grew on that land had long withered.

"Such a dense Abyss aura..."

In contrast, the land where he stood was:

Lush and verdant, with flowers and grass growing extremely luxuriantly, without even a trace of the Abyss's aura!

"Where have I encountered this feeling before??"

"It's the World Tree!!"

"I sense the aura of the World Tree!!"

[Spirit Holy Sword] Erusa suddenly transformed back into her elven form, exclaiming in surprise!

Wang Chu suddenly woke up.

That's right!

It was the aura of the World Tree!

The main reason he didn't recognize it at first was that the World Trees he had encountered before were all quite abnormal!

The corrupted World Tree he encountered in Tier 0 was quite 'hot,' liking to twist.

The one he encountered in Tier 1 had already begun to fall, but it still somewhat resembled a World Tree.

So...

This is another Abyss Trial related to the World Tree's background?

It seems... he can't avoid the World Tree!

"Chaotic battlefield... constantly repeating world..."

What does this introduction to the Abyss Trial mean... Wang Chu didn't quite understand...

Why be so cryptic? Wouldn't it be better to just give a main quest?

After casually complaining, the surrounding lawn suddenly began to shake!

"Someone's coming!"

Erusa instantly transformed into a fist blade, disappearing from the spot.

Wang Chu stood his ground, looking towards the direction he sensed!

Subsequently, a tall, sturdy Tauren emerged from around the corner, carrying a huge club on its back!

[Earthshaker (Lord)]

[Tier: Tier 2, Level 23]

[Strength: 2800]

[Agility: 2000]

[Defense: 2500]

[Skills: Fissure, Enchant Totem, Aftershock, Echo Slam]

[Weakness: Steel Door]

[Introduction: The strongest Tauren warrior in the Radiant!]

A Lord-level BOSS right from the start?

This dungeon's difficulty isn't low!

Just as Wang Chu was about to directly attack, he saw the Tauren walk over, its large bovine eyes filled with large question marks.

"Huh?"

"Why haven't I seen this humanoid machine before?"

"Is it a newly spawned monster, or a new invention of that Tinker kid??"

It stood in front of Wang Chu, observing for two seconds, then walked straight past Wang Chu, trudging through the river towards the opposite bank.

"Never mind... A team fight is starting over there, I need to hurry over..."

A team fight?

What does that mean?

Without thinking, Wang Chu followed!

"This Tauren is quite familiar with this road..."

Wang Chu observed Earthshaker's movements, noticing that the path the other party was taking was targeted.

It was clear that he had been to this black wasteland many times!

However,

From the direction he came, it wasn't hard to tell that he should belong to the "World Tree" faction's Lord BOSS!

The words "Radiant" in his introduction indicated the faction he belonged to!

As they continued to advance!

Wang Chu keenly heard intense battle sounds coming from ahead!

Boom—

Bang—

"The fighting is quite intense!"

"It seems a battle has broken out between the two factions!"

Wang Chu speculated in his heart.

Suddenly!

A notification sound from an unknown source spread throughout the entire battlefield!

"[Shadow Fiend] has killed [Tinker], Shadow Fiend is on a killing spree!! Shadow Fiend gains +300 gold."

"[Shadow Fiend] has killed [Puck], Shadow Fiend has gotten a Double Kill! Shadow Fiend is dominating the game!! Shadow Fiend gains +350 gold."

Two consecutive notification sounds rang out.

Wang Chu was stunned for a moment.

This thing also has a server-wide loudspeaker?

This 'killing spree'... 'dominating the game'... is quite chuuni?

The Earthshaker not far ahead clearly heard it too, and began to mutter.

"Damn it, I'm stuck with these two noobs again, it looks like this round is over!"

That being said,

His footsteps didn't stop!

As they continued to advance! Wang Chu saw the battlefield ahead!

A black and red soul demon was emitting a thick Abyss aura!

In front of him, a "humanoid" creature was dragging a somewhat crippled body, frantically fleeing!

The direction of its escape was towards Earthshaker and Wang Chu!

[Juggernaut (Lord)]

[Tier: Tier 2, Level 26]

[Strength: 2200]

[Agility: 3500]

[Defense: 2800]

[Skills: Blade Fury, Healing Ward, Blade Dance, Omnislash]

[Weakness: Mask]

[Introduction: A brave and fearless swordsman on the battlefield! A highly respected Sword Saint in the Radiant!]

Wang Chu:?

Wait?

Looking at the introduction, isn't this masked man supposed to be brave and fearless on the battlefield?

Why are six out of ten words in two sentences 'save me'?

"Save me, save me, save me!!"

"Old Cow, save me!!"

The Juggernaut wearing the mask saw Earthshaker and immediately shouted loudly!

Wang Chu:?

Seriously?

He was Earthshaker take out the big stick behind him!

And smash it fiercely on the ground!

[Fissure]!

Boom—

The sand, soil, and rocks on the ground were controlled by Earthshaker's powerful strength at this moment!

Instantly, a stone wall about thirty meters long, five meters high, and five meters wide appeared!

Wang Chu's eyes lit up!

This Tauren is quite capable!

Possessing a very powerful skill!

Being able to easily change the battlefield terrain is a key ability that influences the battlefield's trend!

As long as this skill is used well!

It can completely divide the battlefield!

Save teammates, or block the opponent's escape route!

But...

Behind the stone wall, came Juggernaut's angry curses.

"Old Cow, I c, c!"

"Damn it, how did that Z cannon hit me??"

"Ah!!"

Juggernaut's screams echoed through the forest!

The loudspeaker also sounded!

"[Shadow Fiend] has killed [Juggernaut], Shadow Fiend has gotten a Triple Kill! Shadow Fiend is on a rampage!! Shadow Fiend gains +500 gold."

Wang Chu was dumbfounded.

It really is a key ability that can influence the battlefield's trend...

Directly sealing off the teammate's path completely, as expected of you, Old Cow...

However, seeing that Earthshaker didn't feel any remorse for his teammate losing his life, he just ran back in a tumble.

"Oh dear, I calculated the lead perfectly, why did you turn? I won't come to save you next time!"

"Gotta go, gotta go!"

Good fellow...

You're passing the buck, huh?

Just as Wang Chu thought that this battle would end here!

That black and red figure suddenly appeared beside Earthshaker!

Immediately after!

Earthshaker was blown up by a gust of wind!

Spinning in the air!

The enemy caught up!!
