Chapter 288: Mystery · River of Fire

"Save me... not saving is also fine..." The will of the God of Life took a big breath, almost making Negris fall to the ground.

"What do you mean? Do you still want to be saved? What is the situation on your side now?" Negris roared directly at the Life Heart with his will.

The will of the God of Life was slow, and couldn't feel its panic, but the meaning expressed was very critical: "These insects, parasitic in my body and roots, you reminded me, I went to check, they broke out, gnawing my trunk, in two days, they should be able to gnaw me away."

"Ku Ba Da, you can be gnawed away in two days, and you are still muttering with us. You can die if you speak faster!" Negris was anxious, hurriedly turned to Ang and said: "Ang fast, rush to the Elf Forest at the fastest speed."

"Oh." Ang pushed the door and left the carriage, walked two steps, took out the Heavenly Kingdom Scepter, and activated it.

With a "clatter," a teleportation portal cracked open in front of him, and Ang stepped into it and disappeared in front of everyone.

Only a pile of dumbfounded papal guards and ceremonial guards were left in place.

"Just... just now that was... the Gate of the Heavenly Kingdom?" Someone in the team whispered.

Anthony had to stand out and laugh: "Haha, Lord An was summoned by the gods and has gone to the Heavenly Kingdom. Don't spread it, keep it secret, go back and make a secret oath in the secret oath room yourself, you know?"

"Yes! Pope!" The guards of the team shouted in unison.

Anthony's use of words like "go back" and "yourself" was very clever. By the time they returned to the camp, the news that Lord An was summoned by the gods, crossed the Gate of the Heavenly Kingdom, and returned to the Heavenly Kingdom had spread quickly.

After the news spread, the curious people who came, facing the guards who had just made a secret oath and kept their mouths shut, suddenly supplemented various versions of legends.

Ang crossed the teleportation portal, returned to the Holy Heavenly Kingdom, infused holy light, and projected it to the Abyss of Rest again. The landing point was the World Tree Windbreak Forest, and it was just a few steps to the Demon Valley.

Through the teleportation array of the Demon Valley, teleport directly to the Elf Forest. Although it jumped twice, it was the fastest way to reach the Elf Forest.

Walking out of the teleportation array, the first thing Ang saw was insects all over the sky and fields. These insects were very fine, smaller than mosquitoes, but they were overwhelming.

All the Elves gathered around the teleportation array. The Elf mages supported the protective cover, isolating the insects dancing all over the sky.

The ground inside the protective cover had already paved a layer of insects, and there were several skeletons gnawed to only bones. Looking at the slender bones, they clearly belonged to Elves.

Under the attack of the insects, the Elves had casualties, and it was still inside the protective cover.

However, the main target of the insects was not the protective cover. They flew all over the sky, rushing to those flowers, plants, trees, birds, beasts, fish, and insects. As long as it was alive, they couldn't escape their coverage.

If this continues, the entire forest will not escape the fate of being gnawed away.

Outside the protective cover, several "insect people" wrapped in insects rushed back. Their bodies were covered with insects, just like the beekeeper's body was covered with bees. The number was more and denser, and it was also more disgusting.

They shook their bodies in unison, the insects on their bodies were shocked to death by strong fighting spirit, and fell to the ground with a "poof."

The insects fell, revealing a beautiful face. It was the Elf Queen Gailade and her guards. A layer of fighting spirit light appeared on her body, and the insects couldn't touch her body at all.

After shaking the insects clean, Gailade and others rushed into the protective cover and said urgently: "No, the insects are too dense, we can't rush over."

"What is the situation outside now?" Aistolia, who stayed in the protective cover, asked, two bright eyes flashing with sharp essence.

"The small World Tree is about to be gnawed away. The God of Life released white mist to block the approach of the insects, but I saw from afar that its leaves are falling off. If this continues, it will soon be bald again," Gailade said anxiously.

Suddenly moving, Gailade and Aistolia turned their heads in unison and looked toward the teleportation array, obviously discovering Ang's arrival.

"Lord Ang!" Gailade shouted in surprise: "You came so fast."

Aistolia also looked complicated and stroked her shoulder to salute.

Negris asked urgently: "What's the situation? What about the Tree of Life?"

"Don't know, we can't rush over, there are too many insects. Besides these small insects, there are some large mantis-like humanoid insects. The sickles on their hands are very sharp and will attack us in the pile of insects," Gailade said anxiously, and at the same time, her expression was a bit irritable.

Not only her, almost all Elves have similar irritable expressions, just like seeing cockroaches in the toilet.

Indeed, the overwhelming insects are too irritable.

Negris turned to Ang and said: "Contact the Tree of Life, ask about its situation, it said it would be gnawed away in two days, ask it if there is any way to eliminate these insects."

"What? Two days?" Gailade and Aistolia were surprised first, and then surprised to see the Life Heart taken out by Ang: "How could the Life Heart be in your hands?"

Ang replied casually: "Old tree gave it."

The expressions on Gailade and Aistolia's faces were complicated. The most precious tree core of the God of Life, the Elves didn't get it, but the Tree of Life gave it to others...

"We are here." Ang sent a will through the tree core.

"I locked the location of the big insect. It seems to be immune to my attack. Help me kill it. They ate a lot of things. My forest is about to be eaten away. Save the forest." The God of Life said.

Listening to the God of Life's muttering words, Gailade and Aistolia looked at each other. They had never seen the God of Life perform so humanly. In the past, the God of Life was like a spring breeze, omnipresent, but never so close to them.

Kailandair sighed secretly: Sure enough, in the heart of the God of Life, we are no different from those birds, beasts, and plants, so ideas like "World Tree belongs to Elves" are just our imagination.

No one had time to care about the loss in the Elves' hearts. After confirming the location of the enemy Insect God, Ang stuffed Negris back, offered the Soul Armor, and prepared to rush out.

"Wait a minute, I'll go with you." Gailade said.

"I'll open the way for you." Aistolia said.

Without waiting for Ang to refuse, Aistolia walked out of the protective cover. Her body was surging with endless magic power, and she stepped out of the protective cover.

The moment her toes landed, a fire ring spread from under her feet. Wherever it passed, the weeds and insect corpses on the ground were ignited, and a half-circle fire line spread out.

"Spirit of fire, listen to my voice, come, come to my side, turn into a river of fire, drown the front."

Whoosh... whoosh... whoosh... The rapidly gathering fire elements made whistling sounds, gathered in front of Aistolia, and burned forward, just like a river composed of fire, rolling forward.

Negris gasped: "Mystery · River of Fire!"

Worthy of being a Truth Archmage, she used the Mystery Forbidden Spell River of Fire as soon as she made a move. This is a forbidden spell that increases in sequence. At the beginning, the power is not great, but after the fire flows through enough places, burns more substances, and catalyzes more fire, it will become infinitely powerful and invincible.

Give it enough combustibles, it can turn a city into ashes. If combined with another Mystery · Burning Wind, the hot wind blown can bake a forest dry.

However, here, Aistolia just wanted to use it to open the way. The fire was gathered by her in front, paving the way to the distance like a fire carpet.

Gailade followed the fire and rushed out of the protective cover, crashed into the insect swarm, and looked back, only to find that Ang didn't follow.

When she retreated and looked, she saw Ang staring at the ashes on the ground, unwilling to move.

"Lord, what's wrong?" Gailade asked suspiciously: "Is there anything wrong?"

Negris had already frantically persuaded in his soul: "Leave it, leave it to you, I'll let them leave all the insect corpses and insect ash to you, okay? Hurry up, save the old tree first, don't be distracted, don't care about fertilizer at this time!"

Gailade was confused. How could she imagine that Ang was unwilling to move because of the insect ash on the ground?

Ang tilted his head and suddenly asked: "Insect corpses, also have skeletons?"

"Ah?" An inexplicable sentence made Negris dumbfounded. However, it was used to it, because Ang's brain circuit is different from others, and it is easy to ask some strange questions.

However, it didn't take long to be dumbfounded. At the same time Ang asked that sentence, his feet stepped on the ground hard, dragged hard, and his steps slipped—the King arrived.

Ang's meaning of "do insects also have skeletons" is, can he summon these insect corpses?

The corpses of insects densely packed on the ground surged like waves, but Ang was pressed to the ground directly.

A corpse is a line of soul network. There are hundreds of millions of insect corpses nearby, which tied Ang's soul network into a knot in an instant.

Fortunately, it was insects. If it were normal corpses, this order of magnitude could blow up his soul network.

Ang stabilized his mind and tried to stand up hard.

The insect corpses around surged again, and a circle of ripples surged like waves.

No, there are too many. He couldn't stand up. Don't look at the small volume of these insect corpses, but the number is too large, exceeding the number Ang can control.

Normally, a Golden Skeleton has a limit on the number of corpses it can control. Many have three or five hundred, one or two thousand is normal, and ten thousand is overloaded.

However, the Mourning Lord doesn't know how many he can control. Even if he turns it a hundred times, it's only one million, which basically fills the range covered by the King's arrival.

However, in the range of Ang's skills, there are at least hundreds of millions of insect corpses, which is not an order of magnitude at all.

"Are you crazy? You don't want to summon all these insect corpses with the King's arrival, do you? Everything has a limit. How do you connect so many nodes? It will blow up your soul." Negris was shocked.

"And, what do you do when you summon them? A pile of insect corpses, sending food to live insects?" Negris complained.

Live insects are flexible and agile, but the corpses summoned by the King's arrival are absolutely not as flexible as they were in life.

If it were the corpses of living people, they could rely on the advantage of numbers and the characteristic of not being afraid of death to drown the enemy. But the problem is that the enemy is insects, and the number is more than insect corpses. Besides going to send food, what else can they do?

Ang ignored him. A huge flame suddenly popped out on his head, the flame light rushed several meters high, like a burning torch, but the color of the flame light was ghostly blue.

Negris couldn't help but shout: "Are you crazy? Why do you show the Undead Godhead? I understand, Ku Ba Da, you are not summoning corpses at all, you are trying to collect insect corpses, not wasting a grain of insect ash!!"

With the Godhead as a node, the soul network spread out. Ang carried the "big torch" and struggled to stand up slowly.

The insect corpses around finally moved, crawling up one after another, and gathered into a group.

Then Ang pressed them and activated the Hand of Dimensional Passage, pressing them into the Palace of Rest.

Negris didn't know what to say. After all the effort, just for a little insect ash? Can't have a little pursuit!

However, Ang's temper, it was too lazy to scold, and said helplessly: "Hurry up, the rest will be handled later. Save the Tree of Life first, don't be distracted, don't care about fertilizer at this time!"

Gailade misunderstood: "The lord is collecting insect corpses? I understand, it's because insects eat insect corpses, leading to evolution, right? Elves, listen to my order, burn the insect corpses!"

Immediately, several Elves cooperated, some released wind tornadoes, some released fire tornadoes, and the two combined to form a compound magic—Wind Fire Dragon.

Wherever the Wind Fire Dragon passed, the insect corpses were rolled up, burned inside the tornado, and finally turned into ashes and sprayed into the sky, and then fell evenly.

Ang tilted his head and muttered: "Robbed..."

Not only robbed the insect corpses, but the efficiency was also very high. Forget it, save the old tree first.

Taking steps, Ang rushed toward the Tree of Life, plunged into the insect pile, and all the insects dancing and crawling in all directions were insects. More insects stopped on plants and animals, gnawing frantically.

As living things were gnawed, the number of insects also showed exponential growth.

However, the insects couldn't gnaw Ang's golden bones. Some blind insects rushed onto him, bit hard, "clack," spat out a mouthful of broken teeth, and flew away scolding.

Running and running, ran to the bottom of a giant tree stump, looked up, this giant tree was indeed only a stump, and the crown and trunk were gnawed full of holes.

"Isn't this the World Tree we sold to the Elves? God, gnawed like this? What about the Tree of Life? Don't be gnawed away too." Negris said.

Ang continued to rush forward, running and running, suddenly found that there was a kind of white mist around, getting thicker and thicker.

Ang ran a few steps, suddenly stopped, looked at the ground, only to see a pile of insect corpses paved in front, and on most of the insect corpses, white "flowers" grew.

Negris clapped and praised: "Fungi, it turns out to be fungi. This white mist is not mist, it is the spores of fungi. Using fungi to kill insects, good method, worthy of being the Tree of Life."

Continued to rush forward, about to rush through the white mist, suddenly, a black thick vine whipped over. From the metallic luster on its surface, it was definitely not an ordinary plant. ===== CHAPTER 289 =====
