Clash of Lords: Civilization Game Comes to Reality

The sharp sword was unsheathed, blocking the vines that swept behind him and cutting them off.

The broken vines spilled a dark green sticky juice.

The green figure in the forest cast a cold look at them, and the nearly five-meter-tall tree shook its body to reveal its shape from the depths of the dense forest. The thick and old bark was covered with dark brown cracks, and a ray of light representing the flow of magical energy flashed from time to time in the cracks.

They moved slowly and silently in the forest with the help of the creeping roots under their bodies, and they could disguise themselves very well after taking root.

The comer is not friendly.

Tree demons.

Compared with normal tree demons, tree demons often rely more on spellcasting ability rather than physical brute force. They are born with stronger spellcasting ability than tree demons, and can release low-level natural spells without any external assistance.

For example, activating a part of the body as a flexible and deadly weapon to attack the target.

The captain of the guard took a step back, swung his sword to cut off the dark green whip, and took a deep breath. Looking at the tree demon that gradually revealed its complete form from the forest, the guard members dispersed in a hunting formation.

Just now, their attention was focused on the gray-clothed soldiers, and they didn't notice that something else was touching them from behind.

"Remove the disguise, disperse, and form a hunting formation."

Tree demon... He might not be able to deal with those gray-clothed soldiers, but it was more than enough to deal with a tree demon.

The captain of the guard cursed in his heart, thinking that he was unlucky today.

There was an empty space in front of them, and the tree demon was approaching behind them.

If they went forward, they would definitely be discovered by those soldiers. If they fled backward, the tree demon could use vines to block their space for dodging.

It was really troublesome.

There was no other way except to quickly resolve the battle.

The guards took off their green camouflage clothes that affected their movements, revealing their yellowed and damaged combat uniforms. They pulled out their own melee weapons and held them in their hands. The rune swords reflected a faint luster in the dim woods.

Injecting energy, the runes sharpened the swords, forming a faint light on the front. With the help of this layer of sharpened weapon brilliance, adventurers can easily cut through iron with the most common rune weapons, truly cutting iron like mud.

Rune carving technology.

Greatly enhance the armor-piercing ability of weapons.

Every lord who chooses rune technology will try his best to drag the enemy into a close-range meat-crushing battle in the era of cold weapons, and then use better melee weapons to gain an advantage.

The tree demon stopped, and the creeping roots changed direction and inserted into the ground.

Rooting.

With the tree demon as the center, the vines extending from the arms completely blocked the escape direction of this Asian team.

The captain of the guard had a headache looking at the extended vine net. If he saw such a tree demon blocking his way in other places, he would even be happy.

Tree demons and corrupted wasps are two extremes, compared with the corrupted wasps that have basically no recycling value. Every part of the tree demons: tree cores, twigs, and the most important spell resonator, active tree cores...even their bark can be sold for a good price.

But the tree demons have strong concealment ability and can control fairies to help them fight, so it is extremely difficult to catch one.

Like this five-meter-long tree demon, if they can be hunted intact by them, it can be equivalent to the annual salary of the second member of the guard team.

There is also extra money to give each of them a year-end bonus.

But now they must leave as quickly as possible and must not entangle with this tree demon.

The captain of the guard subconsciously pressed his waist, where there was a scroll for the last weakened version of the fireball spell, which could set this guy on fire.

Unless it is absolutely necessary, fire cannot be used.

If they use fire, they will definitely be discovered by the gray-clothed soldiers not far away, and then they will really be unable to escape.

"You cover me, cut off the vines of the tree demon, and consume the control of the tree demon."

The captain of the guard quickly constructed a plan to fight against the tree demon in his mind. As long as the temporary paralysis of the tree demon's spellcasting and activity organs is enough to buy them time to escape.

The spellcasters in the exploration team did not act with them, so they could only rely on their guard team equipped with rune weapons to solve the problem.

After receiving the captain's order, the guards who had formed a semi-arc siege formation strode forward, and the swords in their bodies were like flowing light.

The tree demon stretched out its vines to intercept the attack launched by the pair. The interwoven new vine net blocked half of the guards, forcing them to cut off the planting net before they could move forward.

A guard dodged the vine whip swung by the tree demon and wanted to cut off a large number of blocking vines directly from the roots of the tree demon's blocking vines, but was blocked by the tree demon's reaction.

The sharp rune sword had already broken through the hard tree layer with one sword, but was blocked by the tree body containing sticky branches and leaves. The light and sharp sword seemed particularly weak when it fell into the juice buffer layer.

This is not the blood of the trees.

This is the buffer layer evolved by the trees to resist weapons. These sticky juices flow under the hard bark. Once the epidermis is damaged, it will flow out to form a temporary glue layer to block cold weapons and remove all the force of the attack.

The captain of the guard looked at the thick bark and the tree demon's vague and sarcastic smile, and his headache began to arise again.

He suddenly thought of the explosive packs that the soldiers used to destroy the beehive. They should be as powerful as destroying biological structures.

Explosion...right.

————

The tree demon looked at the creatures scurrying around in front of him, feeling a little annoyed.

These creatures were too good at jumping and dodging, and his vines would be quickly cut off and cut once they approached them. Generating new vines was a burden for the tree demon... but it was enough to consume the physical strength of the creatures in front of him.

Don't worry, the glowing sticks in these creatures can't hurt you, and can't make you feel pain.

He was originally ordered to capture these creatures and interrogate them... The armies of two forces appeared on an empty island, which aroused considerable interest in the tree demons living nearby.

Do these creatures think that they can run rampant in their forests without hindrance by wearing a layer of green plant skin? In this forest of trees, the fairies hidden in the forest will tell them everything that is going on in the forest.

As for why they could tell that the guards and the gray-clothed soldiers belonged to different forces.

One had ears on its head, and the other had no ears on its head. Even creatures as slow as trees could tell them apart.

The tree demons living on the other side of the sky island also reported that they saw a group of pointed ears a few months ago...

But the pointed ears only appeared briefly here and soon disappeared.

He raised his head and looked at the guards who screamed under the sweep of the vines.

They were still attacking their own vines in vain. The generation speed was a bit slow, but it was enough to deal with these things...

But I seemed to have broken the limbs of a certain thing just now... What a fragile life, a fragile body. He set his sights on these things, waiting for them to use up the last bit of strength in their bodies.

How could the tree demon tribes on other islands be invaded by such weak life forms? He could not understand at all. Even those gray things, I don't think they have any ability.

The tree demon put away all the vines and prepared to end the battle early and bring these things with ears back to the elders.

One, two, three...

Nine...?

Why is there one less? Did he run away?

It doesn't matter, there are enough to go back...

A blue light flashed, and a deep scar visible to the naked eye was opened on the top of the tree demon's head, and then something was stuffed into his body.

This was the last scene he saw.

The captain of the guard looked at the tree demon who was seriously injured and dying because of the fireball scroll stuffed inside, and breathed a sigh of relief, and felt something touching his trouser legs.

He lowered his head.

He saw a big spider arching his feet.

Spider? Where did it come from...?

He turned around and saw a group of gray-clothed soldiers holding up their medium-length spears and putting them in the crosshairs.

The captain of the guard threw the rune sword in his hand to the ground with a wry smile, and raised his hand to show that he had disarmed himself.
