Chapter 36

“Hehe, Brother Stars, I knew you had a plan!” Sirius grinned at Seuss and said casually.

He took out the holy water from his backpack. He had obtained it from the Treant Shepherd and it was originally used to deal with the black elves, but because of the tunnel terrain, only Madman used the holy water. Now, there were still four portions left.

“If we drink this holy water, will we be able to defeat the Twisted Tree Spirit?” Daydreamer asked.

“Of course not,” Seuss shook his head and said firmly.

That was what they had thought yesterday, so Seuss, Madman and Heart of Holy Light drank the holy water. Although the holy water could indeed reduce some damage when facing the Twisted Tree Spirit, the power of the Twisted Tree Spirit was too powerful. Even without the corruption of the demonic power, Seuss and the others could not withstand his attack.

In the end, after the Desert Guild cleared the dungeon, Seuss went to look for Moon Devourer and asked for his strategy.

.

Although he didn’t know what Moon Devourer was thinking, Moon Devourer didn’t hold anything back when it came to dungeon guides.

“You’ll know what the holy water is for later.” Seuss put the holy water back into his backpack and smiled.

“Our goal now is to get rid of these two elites.”

These two elite treants were also extremely powerful.

Yesterday, they had even been wiped out twice in this place. It was only on the third time that they found a way to win.

“Go back the way you guys came from, all the way to where we just killed the war treants.” Seuss pointed in the direction they came from.

“Okay.” Although they did not quite understand, in the previous series of battles, Seuss’s command had allowed them to overcome countless difficulties. If not for Seuss, they might still be facing the black elves.

Seuss’s previous decisions were all correct. This made Daydreamer choose to trust Seuss unconditionally. Even if he didn’t understand anything, he still agreed without any hesitation.

After Daydreamer left, Seuss waited for a while and felt that they should have arrived at their location. He then entered stealth mode.

He carefully moved towards the elite treants. The treants had outstanding abilities in all aspects, except for their mobility and perception.

This was also why Seuss dared to approach the elite treants stealthily.

Seuss crept up behind a treant without making any sound. In this forest full of dead branches and leaves, only by being very careful could one avoid making any noise.

He gently pressed the dagger close to the treant and stabbed down ruthlessly, activating Instant Kill.

-45

The elite treant’s defense was ridiculously high to begin with, and he even had 50% physical damage immunity. The attack that could originally cause hundreds of damage only dealt forty plus damage.

But that was enough. The effect that Seuss wanted to achieve was complete. All that was left was to lure this treant to where Daydreamer was.

After the damage number floated out, Seuss quickly pulled out his dagger and ran.

The elite war treant behind him grew a large face on his trunk. This face looked extremely exquisite compared to the temporary treants.

If the temporary treants’ face was just a child’s scribbles, then the face of the elite war treant was like that of a professional artist.

Roar!

The elite treant let out a loud roar, and many of the nearby trees and leaves were shaken down.

As soon as the elite treant opened his eyes, it saw that the human who had stabbed him earlier was escaping.

Seeing this, the elite war treant became even more furious. He pulled out his thick roots from the soil and turned them into countless thick legs.

Although the legs formed by these roots were very short compared to the body of the treant, Seuss knew that each of these roots was thicker than his own leg.

Although his body was huge, the elite war treant’s speed was not slow at all. This was also the reason why Seuss wanted to escape immediately after stabbing him.

Just as the elite war treant chased Seuss, the other elite war treant woke up, and a different face appeared on the tree trunk.

It also pulled out the roots from the soil and chased after Seuss.

After chasing for more than a hundred yards, the treant who woke up afterwards was unwilling to continue chasing. Compared to a small thief, it was more important to watch over the Treant Overlord.

The treant who had awakened at the beginning was still bleeding after being stabbed by Seuss.

The gold-tier Thanksgiver’s Boots on his feet came with a skill that could cause double damage to the first attack after stealth mode and at the same time cause 50% bleeding damage.

The continuous damage increased the hatred of the elite war treant, causing him to chase after Seuss.

“Foolish human, you actually dare to disturb the lord’s rest, in that case, you shall stay here.” The elite war treant’s speed was almost the same as Seuss’s. He could only follow behind Seuss and roar angrily.

Seuss originally did not intend to answer, but he suddenly thought of the war treants earlier.

“We have no intention of offending you. We are only here to destroy the power of the evil demons,” Seuss roared.

Seuss did not stop running when talking to the elite war treant. No one could guarantee that the treant would give up on chasing after him.

“Destroy the power of the evil demons? That’s our lord, the hero who fought against demons and dragons!” the treant became even more furious and roared at Seuss.

“Face reality. Your lord is no longer the hero of the past. He has been corrupted by demons and is about to become a demon’s lackey. Are you really willing to see your lord completely transform into a demon before leaving the world?” Seuss was panting. He had been running at full speed and talking non-stop, making him unable to take the toll on his body.

This time, the treant did not roar angrily. Instead, he chased after Seuss without a word.

Seuss was delighted when he saw that his words seemed to have an effect on the elite war treant.

“You should know that your lord is in more pain than anyone else. He needs to suppress his inner desires. He has been tortured for a thousand years. Are you really willing to let him continue to suffer?”

However, this time, Seuss’s words did not have any effect on the elite war treant. The treant continued to chase Seuss.

After that, Seuss spoke several more times, but the treant did not respond.

“I need your help. It’s the only way to free your lord completely,” Seuss said at last, seeing that they were about to reach the place they had just been.

Hearing this, the elite war treant finally stopped in his tracks, but he immediately started chasing again.
