Chapter 2363 A Strong Attack

“Since you have already guessed it, you should leave immediately.”

Upon hearing the answer, Fang Heng instantly realized he was in serious trouble.

The main storyline mission requirements required him to gain recognition from the four major clans of the tree spirit tribe.

The fact that the mission was still ongoing meant that the Root tribe had not yet been expelled from the tree spirit tribe, and he still had to continue with this mission.

But now, the Root tribe had pledged allegiance to Pride.

Once he moved against the Root tribe, he would have to face Pride head-on.

Fang Heng quickly calculated in his mind, his gaze scanning the Root tribe’s camp not far away, and said in a low voice, “Is Pride inside? I want to talk to him face to face.”

“Fang Heng, I am not obligated to answer your questions. Leave here,” Geoffrey said, lifting the scepter surrounded by black fog in his hand, “This is your last warning.”

Vannes listened to their conversation and discerned that Fang Heng had reservations, causing him to wonder.

What were they talking about?

The Root tribe pledged allegiance to Pride?

Seeing Fang Heng’s hesitant expression, could it be that the Root tribe still had some cards to play that hadn’t been revealed?

Vannes couldn’t let Fang Heng get away like this!

Worried that Fang Heng might try to escape, Vannes shouted boldly, “Fang Heng! Get lost! Be careful, wait for me. One day, I will personally take revenge on you.”

Fang Heng’s gaze turned increasingly grim.

In the next moment, a frenzied group of Lickers swiftly rushed towards the root barrier outside the Root tribe’s nesting area!

“Let’s go together!”

In mid-air, Vampire Prince Carl and his group simultaneously released blood-colored bombs.

Suddenly, thousands of concentrated blood-colored bombs whistled toward the ground and the Root tribe’s camp area!

Under this intense wave of attacks, Fang Heng lightly tapped the ground with his toes, his figure flashing continuously as he swiftly approached Geoffrey.

Vannes must die today!

Fang Heng could already sense that Vannes had been pursued for a long stretch, and by now, he was utterly exhausted, his strength drained to the limit.

What was more critical was that Vannes carried a substantial amount of treasure!

Geoffrey placed both hands on his scepter, and in front of him, the earth churned violently. Several wooden dragons roared and surged out from the rolling earth, viciously charging towards Fang Heng!

The wooden dragons met Fang Heng head-on, exploding violently upon impact!

“Boom! Boom!”

The thick fog caused by the explosion blocked everyone’s vision.

Did he get rid of him?

Geoffrey dared not be careless, his gaze fixed tightly on where the wooden dragons had exploded.

Huh?

Where did he go?

The next moment, he suddenly sensed a spatial fluctuation nearby, startling Geoffrey.

“Oh no! Be careful!”

Right beside Geoffrey, Vannes heard the warning, but by now he had no strength left to fight back or escape.

“Stop!”

Whoosh!!

As soon as the words fell, Fang Heng stepped out from a secondary space projection, completely ignoring Geoffrey’s warning, his hand thrusting forward forcefully!

“Chi!”

The palm instantly pierced through Vannes’ heart in an instant!

Vannes’s pupils flickered an unparalleled astonishment.

Never did he imagine that his life would end in such a ritualistic manner at the hands of Fang Heng.

Fang Heng stared coldly at Vannes and said icily, “There’s one thing you got wrong. The person I wanted dead wouldn’t have escaped so easily. Keeping you alive was just a matter of timing.”

Vannes could no longer speak. The anger in his eyes gradually disappeared with the passage of his life.

Fang Heng waved his hand at Vannes’ corpse. At the same time, the blood-red long sword behind him exploded. Pure blood quickly rushed towards Vannes and wrapped around all the items that dropped after his death.

The game notification on his retina refreshed.

Hint: The player has dealt 2,120,000 piercing fatal damage (critical hit). The player has killed Great Elder Vannes. The player’s tree spirit tribe reputation points 450,000.

Hint: The prosperity level of the Leaf tribe has been reduced to 4.22%. The prosperity level of the Leaf tribe is continuing to decline. If the bloodline prosperity level falls below 3%, the Leaf tribe will be declared completely extinct.

Hint: The player has obtained rainbow crystal*8.

Hint: The player has obtained the sacred tree branch*3, Nature’s Heart Crystal*6, the vessel of sacrifice*3…

“Fang Heng! How dare you!”

In the next instant, Geoffrey’s wrathful voice echoed in Fang Heng’s ears.

Geoffrey hadn’t expected Fang Heng to kill Vannes right in front of him. His eyes blazed with fury, and he fiercely slammed his scepter onto the ground.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!!!”

Dense root spikes extended from the ground, swiftly reaching toward Fang Heng in an attempt to ensnare him.

Fang Heng quickly dodged backward, avoiding the vines’ attempts to entangle him and the piercing root attacks, while keeping his eyes fixed on Geoffrey’s movements.

Enhanced by a polluted aura, Geoffrey’s strength had increased once more.

However, Fang Heng assessed that Geoffrey remained within manageable limits!

In that case, he would go all out and kill him now!

Without their Great Elder, crucial to the branch tribe of tree spirits, their prosperity level would inevitably decline significantly.

After evading several times consecutively, Fang Heng found an opportunity and once again stepped into the secondary space projection.

He repeated the earlier maneuver!

Whoosh!!

Fang Heng stepped out of the spatial projection and was about to give Geoffrey a heavy blow from the side.

Eh?

Suddenly, Fang Heng’s heart skipped a beat.

Whoosh!!

In front of him, a black shadow suddenly darted out from the black fog, carrying an extremely dense black fog aura.

Not good!

“Bang!”

Fang Heng immediately switched from offense to defense, crossing his arms in front of him. Despite this, he was still sent flying backward by a powerful punch from within the dark shadow!

Mid-air, Fang Heng performed a nimble double leap and landed safely on the ground.

Brushing off the dust from his clothes, Fang Heng raised his head and looked at the figure shrouded in black fog before him. He casually remarked, “Pride, we meet again. Finding you sure isn’t easy.”

After a brief probing, Fang Heng already had a clear understanding in his mind.

He probably wouldn’t be able to kill Geoffrey today.

Pride possessed extremely strong basic attributes.

In the recent purely physical strength contest, he lost.

Moreover, the pollution damage added to Pride’s punch swiftly invaded Fang Heng’s body, spreading rapidly into his sea of consciousness.

It was through the power of “Jealousy” within his sea of consciousness that Fang Heng managed to swiftly purge the pollution inflicted by Pride.

Otherwise, he would never have been able to appear as composed as he did now.

“Greed, you brat,” Pride looked at Fang Heng with some displeasure in his tone. “You’re becoming more and more lawless, daring to lay hands on my followers.”

Pride fixed his gaze on Fang Heng for a moment and said, “Greed, this is the second time. Three strikes, and you’re out. You saved me once; consider us even now. From now on, stay out of my affairs.”

With that, Pride gave Geoffrey a cold glance filled with dissatisfaction. “Useless fellow, get lost!”

Geoffrey dared not speak, lowering his head as he followed Pride back to the Root tribe’s habitat.
