There was a roar from the south, followed by another about half a minute later. Brando listened intently, confirming that the Stoneworm had made its way through the rocky valley to the inward constriction of the cite-clad creature with its swirling mouthparts covered in thirteen thousand steel needle-like teeth, which could easily penetrate the soil and chew even the hardest rocks.

Brando had seen an adult stoneworm, about thirty meters long, and it took three people to enclose it. The defense of these creatures from Shishu is so high that the 40 power level (Oz) Bran Greatsword can't even break through the surface armor, let alone deal damage.

On the one hand, the Golden Demon Tree boss put the Stoneworm to drive straight in, indicating that it had shifted the focus of defense to a few of them, and Brando couldn't help but curse secretly.

The headland was almost a mile away from the center of the forbidden orchard where the Golden Demon Tree had taken root, and it took more than two minutes and thirty seconds for the Stone Cone Worm to pass through the stratum at the fastest speed. The three of them had already entered the core of the forbidden orchard, and if the Golden Demon Tree didn't interfere with them, they would only need to bypass the undulating and fragmented area of the ground in front of them to see the Golden Tree's body.

There are still two minutes left.

But even with his heels, he knew that it was impossible for the Golden Demon Tree not to thwart them. Sure enough, before he could finish his thoughts, a broken moan erupted from the solid ground beneath his feet. At such a close distance, they were covered by the Golden Demon Tree's root system, so they moved without warning, and Roman's abilities could not be used.

All three of them felt their bodies sink down at the same time, and Brando, who had been prepared, thrust his elven sword downward, holding Miss Merchant with one hand. He looked to the side, and Freya was half-crouched on the ground to steady herself.

However, before the three of them could let go, the ground sank again, and this time it was obvious that a hole was ripped open from the surface.

"What does it want to do?" The pony-tailed girl almost fell backwards and couldn't help but ask nervously.

"It wants to kill, run with me." Brando pulled Roman up from the ground, then drew his sword, half-wrapped his arms around Miss Merchant, and sprang over it, rolling twice from the ground to avoid a crack in the ground that the Golden Demon Tree had created with its roots.

Roman was protected by the young man, his face was as red as a ruddy apple, his eyes widened, and he didn't even dare to take a breath.

On the other side, Freya seemed to want to jump over, but the Golden Demon Tree was not a vegetarian after all, and it tore the ground further with its roots, causing her chest to crash into the staggered formation. If it hadn't been for Brando's quick hand to pull her back, I'm afraid she would have sunk down with the dirt and rocks.

"Thank you." Freya broke free of his hand and bowed her head in reply.

"Now is not the time to talk about this." Brando drew his sword and slashed a whip in two.

But soon more serpentine roots appeared in front of them, and the rift also sloped further down behind them, and the gap was expanding, and it seemed that the boss was determined to teach them a lesson. But these tricks were commonplace for Brando, and he couldn't help but think that the wooden stake didn't seem to have any new tricks to play other than a surprise for him in the first stage.

This ability to rip the ground is a wide-ranging AOE in the game, but it's not without its weaknesses.

"Look!"

He said to Freya, grabbing Roman as he stared at the oncoming tendrils. He leaned sideways to let the 'whip' pass in front of him, reached out and grabbed it tightly—the Golden Demon Tree obviously didn't expect this, and hurriedly rolled up its tendrils in an attempt to throw Brando out.

But the young man clung to it, and he held Roman up and down. The boss of Xavier's mountain trail finally got impatient, and it raised its roots high to try to kill Brando, but Brando took the opportunity to let go of his hand and leap backwards, landing thirty-four meters away from the rift.

His strength of up to 3.7 energy levels gives him nearly four times the strength of ordinary people, and his dexterity of 2.9 energy levels makes him more agile than a mountain ape walking on the ground in the canopy, which allows him to complete this series of movements without difficulty. When he landed, his strong musculoskeletal and internal organs absorbed the impact layer by layer, and if he were an ordinary person, his internal organs would have already been shattered, and for him, he only felt a little uncomfortable.

This is the benefit of improving the physical attributes, Brando knows that what he has done before is not without gains, and he is accumulating attributes little by little, just for the sake of this moment.

As soon as Brando landed, he turned back to Freya and shouted, "Keep up!" Then he didn't stop, and with one hand leading the stumbling merchant lady, the two of them rushed towards the golden demon tree with a sword.

"Brando, wait!"

"I can't keep up."

But at this moment, Brando didn't care what the merchant lady said, he turned the corner, and the ground suddenly cracked with a 'bang', and a large number of roots shot out from the ground to form a huge net - the Golden Demon Tree was behind this net.

Less than a minute to go.

Brando froze, and Roman behind him also stopped and gasped for air. She looked up curiously at the Golden Demon Tree behind her—she thought it must be the Golden Apple Tree of the gods.

Brando looked at the net, exactly as it was in the game. He wiped the elven sword out of a circle in front of him, and the two snake vines that swept over ignited the fire and divided into four sections, the military swordsmanship opened and closed, and there were not many defensive moves, but the few routines were very refined.

Then he let go of Roman and took a step back, raised his sword with both hands, and stepped forward: "Power bursts-!" Brando felt the excessive force being pulled out of his upper arm, forearm, trapezius, and latissimus dorsi, causing the Elven Sword to make a beautiful silver arc - the sword forward, slamming into the net with 7.7 levels of force.

This was what Freya saw when she limped up from behind, and every time she had thought she was seeing Brando's limits. The last time it was good that he had used the magic card to play tricks, but this time she really saw that power burst out.

The blade squeezed air to either side, pulling out a rapid blast. As if it was devastating, the root network of the Golden Demon Tree opened a large opening, and the whole thing collapsed from the middle.

This trapped beast of Xavier's mountain path could no longer stop the three of them, so he could only watch them break through. As soon as Brando entered the core of the forbidden orchard, he shouted to Roman and Freya, "You go and attack its root trunk, and leave the main body to me to do it—"

After speaking, he took out the fate card and silently recited in his heart: "Show the holy sword!" ”

*********

Even in the summer, Wintertalon is shrouded in a thin layer of frost. It was originally built in the high-altitude mountains of Corcova to monitor the barbarians in the forest to the north, but after the establishment of the province of Balta, it also became one of the royal villas.

In the diamond-shaped courtyard of the castle there is an old pine tree, which miraculously survived a fire in the last century in the Wintertalon Castle, which the owner of the castle considered a good omen and rebuilt the fortress and kept it.

Now, under this pine tree, a solemn atmosphere is spreading.

The little girl, dressed in a thick knight's suit, had beautiful silver hair and half-pointed ears that confirmed her non-human heritage. But unlike the elf's solitary height and softness, this fifteen-year-old girl had a solemn face, and her hands clenched a dark and heavy long sword, and the posture she put forward was exactly the defensive posture of the Eruin cavalry swordsmanship.

She pursed her lips and ordered a younger boy in front of her, "Haruzer, attack me-!" ”

Simple and unquestionable.

"Sister......

"Attack!"

The boy had no choice but to stab him with a sword. But the girl flattened the sword and cleanly pressed down on his blade, then took a step forward and pressed her hand on his chest, pushing him directly to the ground.

There was a gasp from the servants around them.

"Come again!" The girl's face remained unchanged and she said.

"Sister, I ......"

"Stand up and come again."

The little boy had to stand up and take a step back. Gritted her teeth and rushed over again, but the girl in a knight's uniform handed her sword from her right hand to her left hand, and with a wave of her hand, she actually knocked the opponent's sword flying.

"What are you walking on?"

"I'm sorry."

"Again."

……

Ten minutes later-

The maiden approached the dressing room and asked the two maids to undress from their heavy knightly uniforms. The steaming heat and sweat steamed her beautiful silver curls, and she asked without looking back, "Where is my father?" ”

"Madara's envoy has arrived, Your Highness the Princess."

"His Majesty is secretly meeting with the Marquis of Kluger." The other maid replied with a bowed head.

The girl glanced at herself in the mirror, and there was no superfluous expression on her face. She changed into her dress, thrust her hand back into her long silver hair, threw it back, raised her head, and replied:

"Take me to Gmer." She silently thought that there might be a turnaround in the war, but the cunning fellow of Marquis Kluger was not to be trusted. Of course, there is no need to say some things in front of her subordinates, she has to find a trustworthy confidant.

"Yes, Your Highness Princess."

This day is the year of flowers and summer leaves, and at the beginning of June.

*********

Brando watched as each branch of the Golden Demon Tree faded in color and hung limply, knowing that this terrible monster had finally come to the end of its life. He felt a little tired, and paying two points of mana to maintain the effect of the holy sword had almost drained his entire mental capacity.

After all, he is a warrior, not a wizard. Even wizards only have about a dozen mana at this level.

Freya and Roman both sat on the side, Freya had a slight injury to her arm, but it was fine. Moreover, the joy of this injury was more invigorating than the joy of defeating a powerful enemy, and they couldn't help but look back at Brando.

But he saw Brando step forward, and the elven sword slashed in an arc on the main trunk of the golden demon tree.

Burst of power -

The Dying Golden Demon Tree, which had lost the power of God's blood, was nothing more than an ordinary ancient oak tree, powerless to resist the terrifying power of 7.7 energy levels. The tearing force tore off the top half of its canopy, causing it to break flat and fly out.

Both girls let out a low cry, not understanding what Brando was up to.

However, Brando knew that the Golden Tree would hang the creatures it had killed in the canopy, slowly draining the mana. After accumulating over time, you can still find some loot.

Although most of them have long been drained of mana and turned into waste.

Brando walked over, and the first thing he saw was the card on the ground.
