The Lord of Ashes

"Who asked you to help?!" After the battle, Thane looked at Natalya angrily.

The reason why Thain was angry was not because he blamed Natalya for helping her.

But this female knight with rough hands and feet killed this strange second-level plant that was originally valued highly by Thain with one sword.

In the previous battle with Thane, this strange plant was at an extreme disadvantage.

Since Natalya appeared, the fire elements from both inside and outside were burning, directly cutting off the last resistance of this strange plant.

However, the most fundamental factor that really caused the death of this second-level plant was a red heavy sword inserted in the center of its root system.

Of course Thain is familiar with this heavy sword.

When Natalya was in the world of thunder, she first threw this thing in front of him.

When there is no fighting, this heavy sword is black in the middle and silver on both sides.

When Natalaya enters the fighting state, especially when she pours her own fighting spirit into the back of the epee sword, the entire epee sword will turn into crimson red, and a wave of flames will appear.

Natalaya is indeed a second-level earth knight with extremely rich combat experience.

After having murderous intention towards the strange plant, the woman ignored other areas on the surface of the tree trunk and directly and accurately hit the core of its root system.

In the previous battle, Thain only weakened the power and vitality of this strange plant, and had no intention of killing it.

Because this weird plant really aroused Thain's interest. The special purple flame factor gave Thain the urge to find out.

But now, it's all over.

I don’t know whether I should say that the vitality of this strange plant is too fragile, or that Natalya’s shot was too accurate.

After the heavy sword hit the center of its root system, the strange plant trembled for a while and then lost its vitality.

Including that after the epee hit, a very special purple liquid splashed out from the roots of the giant tree. It was not known whether it was its blood.

Thain's scolding made Natalya's head dwarf.

Thain rarely gets angry, and even over the years, Thain has only been angry a handful of times.

This must be the second time that Natalya saw Thain so angry. The last time was when he spanked her in the world of thunder.

Speaking of which, these two people quite resemble a pair of enemies.

Thain was such a good-tempered person, but he was made angry twice by Natalya.

But the two of them have the closest possible relationship as husband and wife. It has to be said that fate plays a trick on people.

Faced with Natalya's lowering of her head and her mouth slightly pursed, Thane sighed and flew straight towards the deep pit below.

The originally damp pit was washed away by the aftermath of the battle and ravaged by several waves of flames. The overall environment became much more anxious, and even the ground turned black.

The underground river not far away has accumulated a shallow lake in this deep pit.

Most of the green-clawed giant crabs that were still alive hid there.

The battle of the second-level creatures is really not something that cannon fodder like them can participate in.

Under the leadership of Chief Green Claw, the surviving Crabs were treating their injuries and rescuing the wounded.

After Thain landed below, first-level magician Daniel and others also approached.

The death of the second-level strange plant was due to them.

However, they were helping Thain weaken the plant as much as possible, and did not have the ability to kill it directly.

The branches of the strange plant that had completely lost its vitality were scattered there quietly.

"I hope I can find something from the cell tissue of this plant, as well as those sarcomas..." Thain pondered.

All the knights and magicians present who participated in the siege have the right to share the spoils of the dead second-level plants.

When Thain was at the first level, he also participated in the experience of cooperating with higher-level magicians to fight. He would not eat alone.

Daniel and others had collected many fragments of this second-level plant in previous battles.

As magicians, they are obviously as interested in this strange plant as Thain.

The remaining first-level knights were not interested in those plant fragments.

What can they do with this thing? Bring it to eat?

For these knights, Thain rewards them by allocating mission points.

By participating in helping to kill a second-level plant, these knights can also get a lot of rewards after the war.

Unlike those magicians, after these knights appeared in front of Thane, they took the initiative to take out the roots, sarcoma and other things they had cut off in the previous battle.

These knights know that magicians such as Thain are relatively rare.

In response, Thane thanked him and gave some potions to several knights.

The arm of one of the first-level knights was scratched in the previous battle, and it seemed that it was still a serious burn.

A hint of purple burn scar made Thane look sideways a few more times.

The knight, on the other hand, looked indifferent.

As long as they are not severe limb injuries or serious life-threatening injuries, other injuries can be classified as "skin injuries" by these knights. Natalya also landed behind Thain at this time, and her heavy sword was still inserted in the center of the root trunk of the dead secondary plant.

Faint flame particles danced in the air, and a large pool of purple plant juice flowed along Natalya's heavy sword to the ground.

"Why don't you pull it out quickly?" Thain rolled his eyes at Natalya.

"Oh." Natalya replied.

She stepped forward and pulled out the flaming heavy sword that was more than ten meters long with one hand.

The second-level strange plant was dead and the battle was over. At the same time, Natalya released her blood transformation.

Including her ten-meter-long flaming epee, the flame particles on the surface were also extinguished. The epee retracted to a length of three meters, and Natalya inserted it back behind her.

It was also the moment when Natalya pulled out the heavy sword from the corpse of the second-level plant. Thain saw clearly what was inside and couldn't help but said in surprise: "Eh?!"

Beneath the corpse of the giant tree that was dead and flowing with purple sap, an irregular-looking purple boulder appeared directly below.

A large number of small plant rhizomes are attached to the surface of the boulder, all of which belong to this secondary plant.

Obviously, the source of most of the power of the second-level plant that had fought with Thain before.

…

The main combatants who killed this second-level plant were Thain and Natalya, so they should share most of the wealth of this giant tree after the war.

Under the trunk of the strange giant tree that had lost its vitality, at the root, Thain dug out a purple-red tree heart.

It obviously contains a rich flame power factor.

"This thing belongs to you, I want that stone." Thain handed the heart of the tree to Natalya and said.

"No, no, just take them all."

"I know you will use them in your experiment." Nataya lowered her head and looked sideways at Thain.

This guy was scolded by Thain just now, and now he's not confident enough.

As expected, people are like one thing descending from another.

Natalya, who had always had a bad temper in the Knights Hall, had never straightened up in front of Thane.

Thinking that Natalya rushed to this battlefield in order to support him in the first place.

Thain sighed and said in a much calmer tone: "Thank you for coming to help me."

"We are all a family, how can we thank you?" Natalya said in a low voice.

Thain was stunned and didn't know what to say.
