Chapter 2304 Going Deep

Hint: The player-led vampire team deals 19,932 damage points to the Leaf tribe guards, causing a bleeding effect…

Hint: Abe Akaya inflicts 20,398 piercing damage points, with an additional poison effect…

The relentless stream of updates continued, detailing the ongoing battle and its effects on the participants.

The tree spirit tribe, already depleted from earlier battles, encountered a barrage of blood-colored bombs midway through their escape. The intense explosions caused severe injuries, throwing the entire team into chaos.

The two newly appointed elders remained unaware that Rudyard had already perished, still harboring hopes of turning the tide in their favor.

“I’ll hold them off, you lead the others out! Get out of the temple!”

Elder Renzo shouted.

As long as they could escape the Temple of Incantation’s confines, they had a chance at survival.

Unfortunately, the attention of the Princes and Dukes of the vampires flying overhead remained fixated on the two elders.

His Majesty decreed that normal Leaf tribe members can be ignored, but those two newly appointed elders must die!

The vampires continued to chase after the two elders and cast Vitality Explosions. Coupled with the continuous attacks of the Lickers and vines from all directions, the two elders’ stamina and mental strength were gradually exhausted.

Until their last ounce of strength was drained, Renzo and Dexi found themselves surrounded in the center by a horde of Lickers.

Bitterness filled Renzo and Dexi’s hearts. They had never imagined that their first mission as newly appointed elders would end in such a way.

The tightly packed Licker groups ahead gradually parted to create a path.

From the midst of the crowd, Fang Heng stepped forward and looked towards Renzo and Dexi.

Renzo’s gaze towards Fang Heng burned with fury, “Fang Heng!”

“You recognize me too?”

Fang Heng had not anticipated that he had become quite notorious among the Leaf tribe.

“Go ahead and kill me! The Leaf tribe will avenge me!”

Renzo stared fiercely at Fang Heng.

Fang Heng remained silent for a moment, his gaze scrutinizing Renzo as he asked, “How many sacred tree branches does your Leaf tribe still have?”

Renzo and Dexi’s expressions shifted slightly at Fang Heng’s question.

Fang Heng’s target was the sacred tree branches within their tribe.

Dexi spoke coldly, “You won’t get anything from us!”

Fang Heng waved his hand, signaling the vampires to temporarily control the two of them.

Carl stepped forward, whispering, “Your Majesty, shall we not dispose of them?”

“No need.”

With the enhancement of dimensional strength, the entire vampire clan and the Licker pack also saw a significant increase in their abilities.

But it was not enough!

This was their home ground, but once they went deep into the primeval forest, it would be the Leaf tribe’s territory.

Without the support of Abe Akaya and the power of the sacred tree cultivated by the Leaf tribe, he wasn’t confident of taking down the Leaf tribe.

Therefore, he had to be prepared.

If he couldn’t win, he could still use the lives of the two elders to make a deal with the Leaf tribe.

After all, killing them wouldn’t reveal the coordinates of the sacred tree branches.

“Let’s go. We’ll head to the Leaf tribe headquarters and find another way to probe,” Fang Heng decided.

“Understood!”

In the Federation’s long-range command center, the military advisors couldn’t help but feel excited when they learned that the three elders of the Leaf tribe who came to support them had all been captured.

Ever since the spiritual domain blockade network was breached, the tree spirit tribe had become increasingly reckless, especially the Leaf tribe, causing significant damage to human living areas.

They had suffered greatly.

Unlike before, this time they cooperated directly with Fang Heng to deliver a devastating blow to the Leaf tribe’s ritual team!

They wiped out a wave of Leaf tribe members!

Even the mechanized units deployed in the rear had yet to enter the fray, as the enhanced psychic team alone managed to handle everything.

Huh?

Suddenly, a staff member at the command post noticed that Fang Heng’s team had deviated from their planned route.

From the battle footage, he noticed that Fang Heng did not return to the Temple of Incantation after the battle ended. Instead, he led the vampires and the Lickers towards the primeval forest.

That direction…

Could it be…?

Everyone looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other’s eyes.

Was Fang Heng planning to follow up on the victory and run to the headquarters of the Leaf tribe?

“Fang Heng.”

The Federation’s long-range command center immediately tried to get in touch with Fang Heng.

“Yes, I’ll continue to pursue them. Before the Leaf tribe can react, I’m going to the headquarters of the Leaf tribe to take a look.”

After receiving Fang Heng’s answer, the command center fell silent again.

Wow, they’re going straight for the Leaf tribe’s headquarters?

Minister Ray pondered for a moment, then decisively said, “I understand. Fang Heng, proceed. We will mobilize all resources to support your operation.”

….

Outside the Prayer Temple, the enhanced psychic team directly confronted the fleeing Leaf tribe units.

The Leaf tribe guards were already disoriented by the pursuit of Licker packs, and midway through their escape, they were suddenly struck by the psychic abilities of the federal team. Instantly, they staggered and fell into dizziness right where they stood.

There was no need for the Federation’s remote mechanized soldiers to ambush them. The next moment, they were overwhelmed by the advancing Licker packs from behind.

“Well done!”

Shi Yanwu praised in his heart.

The psychic team team was most suited for this kind of ambush tactic.

It was impossible to guard against.

The psychic team is best suited for such ambush tactics.

Inescapable.

After successfully annihilating two groups of fleeing Leaf tribe guards, Shi Yanwu was about to assess the battlefield and lead his subordinates back to the temple. However, a message suddenly came from the command post: “Team Shi Yanwu, immediately follow Fang Heng’s team to the inner region of the primeval forest for the next operation. Remember, support Fang Heng’s actions at the periphery and report any issues promptly.”

“Understood!”

Shi Yanwu put down the communicator, lifted his head, and looked towards the distant swarm of scarlet Lickers surging ahead. A chilling sensation suddenly gripped his heart.

Continue forward?

Could it be that Fang Heng intended to strike directly at the Leaf tribe headquarters!?

…

Inside the Leaf tribe clan.

Ever since the Leaf tribe departed from the Inner World, they had established three strongholds within the primeval forest. The largest among them currently served as the tribe’s habitat, fortified over thousands of years.

Despite this, a growing sense of unease gnawed at Great Elder Senzo’s heart. Could another clan be targeting the Leaf tribe?

“Report!”

A hurried tribesperson entered the hall and announced, “Great Elder, a teleportation point ahead of our habitat domain has come under heavy attack by a large group of Lickers. The teleportation point has been breached, and the guards have evacuated, currently on their way back.”

What?

Senzo’s pupils contracted abruptly as he turned to stare intensely at the tribesperson, his eyes filled with profound astonishment, “Lickers!?”

Could it be Fang Heng?

Wasn’t he already dead?

Senzo’s first reaction wasn’t that the teleportation point had been attacked and destroyed, but that he had heard about the Licker.

“Yes, Great Elder. The Lickers are currently approaching our habitat.”

Senzo frowned.

What was supposed to come had come.

However, he did not expect the person to be Fang Heng.

He had seen Lickers before.

Once they gathered in numbers, indeed, they would be quite challenging to deal with.

However, the guards at the teleportation point were carefully selected elite members of the Leaf tribe, renowned within the domain. How could they not last even five minutes?
