"Gurgle"
Zhang Dahai couldn't help but swallow his saliva, his voice trembling, "Is this the thing? It's freakishly scary."
The dangling corpses appeared intermittently through the fog, giving off an incredibly eerie vibe, especially that towering shadow, casting a sense of oppression over everyone.
"Get moving, smash the gasoline onto it."
Su Han knew there was no time to delay and, with a thought, was the first to smash a new energy battery over.
The several-hundred-pound object, under the terrifying force of the Demon Spider Warrior, was like a small cannonball, thudding dully as it smashed against the trunk of the Human-faced Tree.
"Roar!"
The slumbering Human-faced Tree was jolted awake in an instant, its grotesque faces on the trunk contorting as it let out a terrifying roar.
"Crackle and pop"
The thrown new energy battery distorted due to the violent collision, spewing out thick smoke and sparks.
"Keep going!"
Su Han had no intention of stopping; he even picked up a huge battery and threw it himself, while the Demon Spider Warrior did the same.
By this time, Zhu Xiong and the others had already thrown their Molotov cocktails directly at the Human-faced Tree. The bottles shattered on its body, and instantly with a whoosh, the sparks ignited the gasoline and the flames roared to life.
The flames quickly engulfed the trunk of the Human-faced Tree, yet Zhu Xiong and the others didn't halt their efforts, hurling one Molotov cocktail after another.
Explosions occurred amid the fierce flames, one fireball following another, while the new energy batteries, under the high temperatures, detonated massively.
"Roar"
In the surging sea of fire, the Human-faced Tree went berserk, its limbs flailing wildly, and countless vines spread out, shooting from the surrounding lawn toward Zhu Xiong and his group.
At the same time, the towering Human-faced Tree charged towards them, a body engulfed in flames, its crimson gaze and ferocious visage made all the more terrifying through the fire.
"Fall back and attack."
Su Han was extremely calm, swinging his Pu knives to cut off the attacking vines, while the Demon Spider Warrior extended its Claw hands to continually slash the vines, all the while its back arms kept throwing the remaining batteries.
Although Zhu Xiong and the others were momentarily hindered, they quickly took up their knives to fight the vines while another group, led by Gan Xinglei, huddled behind the others, continuing to throw the remaining Molotov cocktails.
"Let the Corpses be in front, Contractors assist by cutting vines. If anyone gets entangled, call out immediately. Don't worry too much about friendly fire, we have Iron Skin."
Zhu Xiong cut through vines while yelling loudly. They all wore Iron Skin, boasting one of the strongest defenses.
The vines wrapped towards them, initially targeting the Corpses at the front, but were swiftly cut by the Pu knives, and even if the force was too much and struck the Corpses' Iron Skin, they didn't care.
Zhu Xiong's interference prevented the Human-faced Tree from ambushing the Spider Warrior from behind, leaving it no choice but to engage directly.
However, the difference between the Spider Warrior of Second Order Low Grade and the Four-armed Corpse of First Order Upper Grade was vast.
With the protection of Black Armor, the entire Spider Warrior was like a pitch-black, heavily armored giant monster.
Vine attacks capable of smashing walls hit the Spider Warrior, causing a clanging noise, but they couldn't inflict any real damage on its body.
The force was absorbed layer by layer, and the Iron Skin defense was sufficient to withstand such blunt force impact, to say nothing of the self-healing ability.
The blows from the vines, like a relentless drumbeat, echoed throughout the car park.
But it was all for naught.
The Human-faced Tree attempted to change its attack method, entwining to strangle the Spider Warrior.
But the slashing Pu knife cut the vines time after time, and the sharp metallic claws shredded all approaching tendrils.
Su Han fought too, dodging with agility and cooperating with the Spider Warrior, continuing to cut the vines.
As the vines thinned, the blood flowing from the Human-faced Tree increased, and the screaming tree began to consider retreat.
But how could the Spider Warrior let its prey escape? It pounced closer to the Human-faced Tree, its great charge shaking the trunk and cracking the wooden exterior to reveal the bloody inner tissue, from which blood continued to surge.
The Spider Warrior swung its Pu knife mightily, carving gashes upon the trunk, as blood tracks multiplied, nearly staining the entire Human-faced Tree red.
The cries grew more piercing, but also weaker, and when the tree's largest vine was cut, its reaction slowed even further.
"Splat"
Just as the terrifying human face opened its gaping mouth, the Spider Warrior thrust its Pu knife with all its might, the blade piercing through the tree's body.
The roar stopped abruptly, the Human-faced Tree swayed and finally fell with a thunderous crash, dead at last.
[You have killed a Second Order Low Grade Human-faced Tree. Do you wish to bind the Human-faced Tree as an Angel Envoy?]
A piece of information entered Su Han's mind, and without a moment's hesitation, he replied, "Contract."
