The Lord of Ashes

In the deep jungle, Thain changed into a light-colored magic robe and flew at low altitude among various giant trees.

The forests of Greenleaf World are not always filled with dangers.

In the situation like this, at first glance, they are all ordinary trees that look sparse and ordinary.

There are indeed a large number of poisonous insects and carnivorous plants in this world, but these indigenous creatures can pose a threat to weak creatures below the first level, and they will never cause trouble to second-level life forms like Thain.

Even if the most poisonous insect bites him, I'm afraid that Thain himself will be fine. Instead, the little bug will be burned to ashes by the green fire of Thain's skin.

Fire magic is one of the most useful magics in the green leaf world. It can cause considerable damage to plant creatures and insect creatures in this plane.

But starting a month ago, the command center of Jizhiyuan Holy Tower Fortress sent a notice, requiring magicians participating in the war to reduce the use of large-scale fire magic as much as possible.

This is because since entering the green leaf world, the Blue Origin Holy Tower Legion has set off no less than a hundred large-scale forest fires in this low-level plane.

According to the rules and environment mechanism of the green leaf world, this weak micro-plane is obviously unable to adapt to the rampant flames sweeping through the vast forests of the entire world.

What the Holy Tower of Origin of Jade needs is not a micro-plane reduced to ruins. Excessive damage to the ecological environment of this world will only speed up the collapse of this micro-plane.

The green leaf world is too small. Two months after Thain and others traveled westward, according to the Monitoring Eye, they penetrated into one-third of the area west of the main continent of this world.

In other words, if they advance at this speed, in another four months, they will reach the extreme west of the world, and going further west will be the vast ocean.

Calculating the same distance, if the Jizhiyuan Holy Tower Army advances fully according to the plan of the combat headquarters.

It will probably take less than two years to capture this micro-plane.

The development of war certainly cannot be completely summarized by data.

Because all kinds of accidents and dangers will always accompany war.

And as the war progresses, the resistance of the green leaf world that Thain and others face will inevitably become stronger.

The current rapid advancement can also be seen as Greenleaf World's failure to react, or its failure to recover from the first confrontation two months ago.

For example, at this moment, Thain, who was flying at low altitude, suddenly heard a scream and elemental energy fluctuations.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of the Holy Tower emblem on Thain's chest came out.

The direction was from the northwest at 37°, which was not very far away from him. The person making the sound was a green-clawed sea crab.

This guy is one of the lower-ranking sea tribe chiefs in the wizarding world who participated in the war, and he has only first-class strength.

According to his authority, the green-clawed sea crab chief needs to obey Thain's dispatch during the war.

Thain quickly led some of the legions around him to support the target area.

Thain's troops did not all gather around him, but were scattered in a fan shape over a large area of ​​the surrounding forest, checking for all possible dangers.

Including at this time, there was a strange movement from the Green Claw Sea Crab, and not all the troops came to support it.

There was a mutter from Goode in the medal, asking Thain if he wanted to help.

After Thain informed Goode to move forward for the time being, there was no sound in the medal.

Two hourglasses later, Thane arrived at the target area.

What appeared in front of it was not a forest terrain, but a huge pit with a diameter of more than a kilometer.

In the vast green leaf world forest, it is rare to see such a large deep pit.

Even in the deep pit, there are no lush green plants, as if this is a place where life is extinct.

However, this situation is only superficial. If there are no living creatures, how can lower-level sea people such as green claw sea crabs be in danger?

As Thane flew down to the bottom of the pit, he finally saw the source of the danger.

This is a strange plant with an extremely twisted appearance and disgusting sarcoma on the surface of its rhizome.

This thing looks a bit like a tree, but there are no green leaves on the branches.

Most of the power sources of plant organisms come from photosynthesis.

Surrounding each lush plant-based rule-complete plane, there are one or several fire-attribute demi-planes that provide light.

And how could such a twisted creature be born in this deep pit in front of the ground, with very little light?

Thain visually estimated that the height of this strange plant was no less than fifty meters. Coupled with the part of its trunk buried in the soil, I am afraid that its true size will be even larger.

So, where is the source of its power?

Is it really possible to cultivate such a big guy just by relying on nutrients extracted from the soil?

And Thain can obviously sense that the life force level of this twisted plant is no less than level two.

In the dark pit in front of him, in addition to this strange giant tree, there were hundreds of green-clawed sea crabs scattered around.

Hundreds of sea crabs were now entangled in the sarcoma branches of the giant tree, including the Green Claw Sea Crab Chief, who had a first-level life level.

Thain even found a dozen empty crab shells among the entangled sea crabs.

The flesh and blood in their bodies were directly swallowed by something unknown.

After noticing the sharp spikes on the surface of the sarcoma vines, Thane showed a clear expression.

When he first joined the war to expand westward, the troops around Thain, including the cannon fodder at the bottom, were only two thousand at full strength.

However, with the continuous advancement in the past two months, and more and more Blue Origin Holy Tower legions descending on the Green Leaf World through the Space Gate, Thain's troops have also been greatly supplemented.

At this time, there are more than 3,000 direct troops who are nominally dispatched by Thain, and they are mainly from the Sea Tribe.

The five hundred sea crabs of the Green Claw Crab Tribe are included among them.

In addition to these more than 3,000 direct troops, there were several advancing troops led by second-level knights, magicians and centaurs around the advancing route of Thain and others.

Considering Thain's special status in the Holy Tower of Origin, he has certain authority to command and order these participating troops.

Although there is no superior-subordinate relationship, no one will deny Thain face.

Therefore, the real power that Thain can mobilize in the surrounding forest area is close to 10,000.

This is a considerable force, but the hundreds of green claw sea crabs in front of him suffered heavy losses from this strange plant, and Thain was still a little angry.

"Daniel, you guys use elemental barriers to isolate this guy from absorbing energy from the surrounding soil."

"Gonzas and you first-level knights, lead the surrounding sea tribes to dig and destroy its root system." Thane gave the order in an orderly manner.
