Before the dried corpses gathered in scale, they couldn’t cause much of a threat to Ye Zhongming.
But he needed to clear some space so that the team could charge up. This was different from other fights.
He crafted one more Moon Edge and sliced the dried corpses around. He was then able to take a few steps.
Moreover, dried corpses would push back at places he wasn’t attacking, forcing him to attack those at the side.
Initially, this situation was still good when the twins were beside him. But when they had to expand the room, the situation got worse.
He used several job skills and reduced the dried corpses around.
At this time, the team started to jump out of the hole, but the area they cleared was around a hundred square meters. This space was not enough.
Fortunately, the treant and his dried corpses climbed up to help reduce the pressure.
He observed the path ahead and decided to make some changes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe sent some information to the silver zombie and gathered the iron zombies together.
As the twins could control the iron zombies, they gathered quickly and started charging in one direction.
The Dried corpses led by the treant and some warriors filled the gaps they left.
With a few strong evolved as the anchors, the team entered a defensive state. Only the twins and their iron zombie horde were attacking.
They charged around the dried corpses and, after a certain distance, moved toward Ye Zhongming.
The dried corpses weren’t too strong. Once the iron zombies stirred them up, they started to show chaos. Some went to surround them to try to destroy them, while some continued to charge at Ye Zhongming and the others. This reduced the strength of their attacks.
Ye Zhongming felt the pressure was reduced and started to lead them to a counterattack. They began to pincer and wipe out many dried corpses.
This allowed them to clear more space.
But Ye Zhongming knew that this wouldn’t solve the root cause. He was just using the death of iron zombies to trade for more space.
Seeing that most of them were up, he led them to flee in a specified direction.
The battle hadn’t stopped, and the team continued to kill dried corpses. However, more of them came, and the pressure increased.
The dried corpses couldn’t do much to this team yet as Ye Zhongming, the twins, and the treant were there. The defensive line looked like it was on the verge of collapse, but it didn’t.
“Life-Taking Carrot appeared!”
The people at the back panicked. Those vines had climbed out and were chasing them.
“The dried corpses have finished gathering there!”
Mei Na pointed out that tens of thousands of dried corpses were there, and they were moving toward the front of the team.
Ye Zhongming frowned, and he knew that the Death King Tree was in control. His target of getting out was easily guessed, so the Death King Tree was prepared.
Right when he was thinking about the Death King Tree, that fellow seemed like it wanted to show its presence. It screamed, and the vines at the back stopped. The roots stretched to the bottom of that hole and absorbed the green liquid. The leaves started to wrap and become thin and long tubes that stabbed the brains of the dried corpses nearby.
Through the vines, the sticky liquid was being injected into their bodies.
Everyone looked on in shock as those dried bodies turned green and their aura strengthened. Some of them started to change and had weapons appear.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDeath King Tree used a method humans couldn’t understand to create two thousand strengthened dried corpses.
The vines that completed all this shriveled. Those strengthened, dried corpses roared before charging at him.
“I… Block!” The treant struggled to speak. He controlled the dried corpses to face off against them. The treant could tell that his dried corpses weren’t as strong as Ye Zhongming’s zombies. Be it his current position or to test those strengthened dried corpses out, his dried corpses were more suited to fight them.
The two groups clashed. There was no blood and no screams, just the sound of limbs flying.
After Ye Zhongming and the twins wiped out many of his dried corpses, the remaining ones were quite strong—just that there weren’t too many. Although they didn’t collapse, they suffered more losses than the strengthened, dried corpse side.
Ye Zhongming took a look and knew that the treant’s subordinates wouldn’t hold on for long.
The sky dimmed, and he saw a green mist when he raised his head. His heart sank.
Although it wasn’t as thick as underground, this was the channeling of World Nature.
The Death King Tree would use this skill again to prevent him from leaving.
Ye Zhongming had experienced this before, and some wounds weren’t healed.
This team would die here if the skill were half as strong as before.
When he was worried, a caravan appeared and headed right for them.
