Chaos, crisis, desperate situation

Actually, the Grotesque Mother Tree should have arrived long ago, but withdrawing from a duel is not easy.

Most people might be cautious when facing an opponent who retreats in a rage, guarding against tricks. Unfortunately, its opponent was Big Cat, and Big Cat wouldn't think so much. She only knew that if the enemy ran, she had to chase!

And this chase made the speed of this evil entity's return slower and slower, and it almost fought with Big Cat again on the way.

However, compared to dueling an opponent it couldn't beat, protecting its "external wombs" was clearly more important, so the Grotesque Mother Tree still rushed back and displayed power that could be called terrifying in front of many players.

Facts proved that not everyone could withstand the enemies Big Cat could take head-on. A few players were just a split second slow in their movements and were whipped into meat paste by the sky full of whip shadows.

Cheng Shi and the other two were lucky, or to be more precise, Cheng Shi was lucky. None of the tentacles could hit his position, and at the moment the tentacles fell, two players saved him simultaneously.

Hu Wei's expression darkened. He directly backhanded his blade, bringing up a fiery arc, and used a scorching, blinding wall of fire to block the Grotesque Mother Tree's attack.

The doctor was even more serious, directly pulling Cheng Shi and leaving this place through shadow travel.

Perhaps Wang Mou was out of kindness, but more likely it was curiosity about the answer in Cheng Shi's mouth.

And when the Grand Marshal, who remained in place, realized that the team's brain had taken away the team's pastor, his eyelids jumped wildly, and he soon broke through to the periphery with the help of the fire.

Being quick-witted, he suddenly had a bad premonition. He felt that he had fallen into a trap. After being pointed out and encouraged by Lord Ultraman, he had actually jumped into the pit dug by 0221 in a fit of hot-headedness.

Although he didn't know what this 【Truth】 believer actually wanted to do, since the doctor said there were no clues to divinity combination here, it meant that 0221 letting so many players in was definitely not an accident. The other party might have already counted the chaos here as part of the experiment!

Of course, the Grand Marshal having this thought was not to elevate 0221's wisdom with his own imagination; he just had a deep understanding of 【Truth】 believers, knowing that this group of lunatics would do anything for the sake of an experiment.

And judging from the current situation, Wei Mu's intention in releasing so many admission tickets was probably not simple either. Had this behind-the-scenes playmaster guessed something long ago, which was why he was willing to give this push, letting the fire of 【Truth】's experiment burn even brighter, so he could watch a peerless good show from behind the scenes?

After all, the wise men of 【Foolishness】 were wiser than the scholars of 【Truth】, even if only self-proclaimed.

Thinking of this, Hu Wei's expression darkened.

Since everyone was watching the show, and since everyone wanted chaos, then why not let this chaos come even bigger.

So he took advantage of the opportunity when no one was around, put away the greatsword of 【War】, and his aura changed, from a commander of a retreating army to a... tentacle!

Yes, a tentacle!

His image naturally hadn't changed, but whether in the eyes of the players or in the cognition of the Grotesque Mother Tree, Grand Marshal Hu Wei, who had just been carrying a greatsword, suddenly became a tentacle.

And this was the true charm of the 【Chaos】 warrior's "Different Blood, Same Robe".

When two armies are at war, I will always be your teammate, no matter which faction you are in!

Hu Wei, who had turned into a tentacle, frowned, quietly took out another greatsword exuding the aura of 【Chaos】, followed the frenzy of tentacles, returned, sneaked into the underground testing ground, and then, right under the nose of the Grotesque Mother Tree, shattered all the giant tanks in sight, releasing everything the Mother Tree wanted to protect.

At this, the Grotesque Mother Tree was completely enraged!

It whipped its tentacles like crazy, starting to attack everything around it indiscriminately.

And just at this time, Mo Li led a group of people to retreat to her place of descent following the path Big Cat came from, but he neither saw Wei Mu nor found Cheng Shi.

With nowhere to go, they ran into the increasingly manic Grotesque Mother Tree, so everyone had to set up a position again, stalemating with the crazy tentacles around them.

But this stalemate was different from the last one. With the Mother Tree being extremely angry, the attack frequency of the forest-like tentacles became faster and faster, more and more urgent. Not long after, the sounds of wailing and fear in the entire area were endless.

But this wasn't over; the situation was still escalating!

Suddenly, the giant tumor rose again beside the underground testing ground. This time its volume expanded by a full quarter, and countless stretching tentacles covered the sky and blocked the sun, whispering and making sounds, looking very much like the crown of a giant tree blown by a wild wind.

And it was also at this moment that the title of Grotesque Mother Tree was finally confirmed.

The sky full of falling tentacles became more frequent, and the volume of the tumor continued to expand. The crown of tentacles, like dark clouds, had already covered the entire sky along the air wall, and not long after, it dragged the entire center of the large area into darkness.

At this, even the firelight burning everywhere could hardly illuminate this twisted and grotesque reality world.

The confrontation between the players and the Mother Tree fell into a disadvantage. Except for some peak players and elite groups who could still find a breathing space, those so-called cannon fodder sent in by Wei Mu had probably long since turned into a pool of rotten meat, coating the entire testing ground.

As for Wei Mu himself...

He was also shattered.

Shattered in an inconspicuous corner of the testing ground.

No one knew how he walked there, and no one even saw how he died. The surrounding tentacles only felt pieces of puppet fragments being dismembered, and then rolled them into the ocean of tentacles during the galloping crawling.

And the only systematic team at the scene was not having a good time either. The group of singers led by Mo Li sang until their throats were almost smoking to buff the team's main attackers, and the pastors in the position were all exhausted of mental power, one after another.

Now, those standing in the front were no longer the long-range hunters and mages, but the remaining assassins and warriors. What caused their attrition was not some heavy injury or exhaustion, but... impending labor and childbirth.

Hiding in Chen Shu's halo meant only being beaten, and rushing out to attack would result in pregnancy. In this dilemma, the assassins and warriors only hated that they were not long-range professions. Even if they threw away all their weapons, they couldn't hold on for much longer.

The position was about to break.

And just at this moment, Honglin finally returned!

The giant bear, comparable to a high tower, roared and descended from the sky, directly pouncing and smashing onto the ocean of tentacles outside the position. Every time the sharp bear claws waved, they brought up countless pieces of meat, and every time the heavy bear paw trampled, it directly crushed the groups of tentacles under its feet into meat mud.

She was like a wild wolf that had entered a flock of sheep, wantonly venting the desire for slaughter in her heart on this battlefield where everything was an enemy.

Seeing this scene, the players in the position secretly said one after another that they were saved. Even the expressions of Mo Li and Chen Shu warmed up slightly, but Tao Yi beside Mo Li suddenly turned pale and shouted loudly at the giant bear rushing into the enemy's nest:

"Where is Cheng Shi? Did you lose him?"

"???"

The giant bear stopped instantly.

She pinched the tentacle in her hand into an explosion with one claw, and then looked toward the direction of the position, her eyelids twitching wildly. That expression seemed to be saying:

If you dare to say such ghost talk again, I won't kill tentacles, I'll start killing people! Kill you, this noisy woman, first!

"Watch out behind you! Hey, don't just focus on fighting, speak up! The Fate Weaver is gone!"

"..."

"Roar—!!!"

The giant bear roared, and like the Grotesque Mother Tree, became increasingly crazy. ===== CHAPTER 772 =====
