Divine Beast Lord: 10000 Amplifier From The Start

86 Seeing Truth in Distress

Like a drop of cold water falling into a boiling pot, the originally quiet [Man-eating Tree Demon] instantly boiled!

Countless gray-green vines waved like snakes. Before Wang Xiao could think of a countermeasure, more than ten vines wrapped around his arm!

The barbs on the vines scraped the metal cage and let out a tooth-numbing sound. Wang Xiao immediately realized that it was very difficult for him to escape and hurriedly raised his hand to slap the secret realm key in his arms!

At this moment, a few Skeleton Grey Sparrows panicked and collided heavily with the metal cage.

The violent shaking instantly made Wang Xiao lose his balance. The hand that was originally headed for his chest shifted to his shoulder, and because of this violent shaking, the secret realm key directly flew out of his arms!

Seeing the secret realm key that was flashing with golden light perfectly fall from the crack and into the mist, Wang Xiao was stunned. One had to know that the crack was only slightly larger than the key and it would not have fallen if it had deviated by even a little!

Before Wang Xiao could recover, something even more unlucky happened.

Under the impact of the [Man-Eating Tree Demon] and the [Skeleton Grey Sparrow], the probe arm made of the [Iron Wood] finally could not hold on anymore. With a crack, it broke into two from the middle!

At the same time, more vines curled up. Wang Xiao did not even have time to react before he was swept into the fog sea by countless vines.

“Idol!”

When Yi Han, who was in the fortress, saw this scene, he shouted and was about to jump down. However, he was firmly held down by Xu Junrou beside him.

“Yi Han! Calm down!”

Xu Junrou pressed Yi Han down tightly with an unprecedented serious expression. “It’s meaningless for you to jump down now. Don’t forget that he’s Wang Xiao! He even survived the Crimson Star royal family. He’ll definitely be fine!”

“But…”

Yi Han was about to say something when Xu Junrou suddenly made a strange gesture. “Don’t forget who you are!”

Seeing Xu Junrou’s gesture, Yi Han immediately stopped talking. He turned to look at the surging sea of fog. After hesitating for a moment with a conflicted expression, he finally nodded. “I understand.”

Xu Junrou’s expression softened slightly. She let go of Yi Han and took out the secret realm key. “There are too many Man-eating Tree Demons that have entered a berserk state. The fortress won’t last long. Let’s leave quickly!”

With that, Xu Junrou crushed the secret realm key and disappeared in a golden light.

Yi Han also took out his secret realm key. He looked at the sea of fog with vines dancing wildly one last time and suddenly crushed the key in his hand!
Almost at the same time, the eight machines of the spider fortress were minced by the [Man-Eating Tree Demon]. The huge fortress lost its foundation and fell heavily to the ground.

…

At the edge of the Misty Forest.

The three secret realm hunters stood on a rock and watched from afar as the huge creature fell to the ground with a bang. The three of them revealed excited expressions.

“Big Brother! Your method is still the best!”

The secret realm hunter who had previously summoned the [Goblin Archer] raised his thumb. “Driving the [Skeleton Grey Parrows] and triggering the violent attack of the [Man-eating Tree Demon], then using the [Man-eating Tree Demon] to wear down that big fellow… your plan sure was really brilliant!”

“It’s not a big deal!”

The hunter boss waved his hand proudly and then revealed a puzzled expression. “However, when did such a huge mutated beast appear in the [Mist Rainforest]? Why have I never heard of it before?”

Another secret realm hunter sneered and said, “Who cares! In any case, such a huge mutated beast must have a lot of good things on it! We might even be able to obtain high-level beast eggs!”

Hearing the words “high-level beast egg”, the hunter boss could not help but think of Wang Xiao again. His excited expression also darkened.

“A dignified level four lord can’t even defeat a level three lord… What’s going on!”

The leader of the hunters muttered and waved his hand angrily. “There’s not much time left. Hurry up and take a look!”

“Yes!”

The other two agreed. The three of them immediately jumped off the huge rock and ran towards the spot where the “mutated beast” had fallen.

…

Tree Demon Swamp.

Wang Xiao was sealed in a metal cage and landed heavily from a height of ten meters. Fortunately, there was swamp mud below, so he was not injured.

However, even so, Wang Xiao did not dare to let his guard down at all because the metal cage had already begun to break. Moreover, he could clearly sense that he was slowly sinking into the swamp!

“Everything went smoothly when I was a bandit. Now that I wanted to be a good person, I ended up like this… What’s going on?!”

Wang Xiao muttered to himself and summoned the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] from the territory. “Handsome! Help me find a golden ball and bring it back to the territory!”

After shouting, Wang Xiao waited patiently. He was wrapped in the vines and could not see the situation outside at all, but he knew that the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] could hear his orders.

As expected, in less than a minute, Wang Xiao felt the [Dark Swamp Crocodile Dragon] take the initiative to return to his territory. Then, with a thought, the secret realm key that was flashing with golden light appeared in his hand.

At this moment, the metal cage suddenly moved up, as if something had lifted it.

Wang Xiao’s expression changed. Just as he was about to crush it and leave the secret realm again, the vines of the Man-Eating Tree Demon outside suddenly dissipated. He saw the three secret realm hunters from before staring at him with complicated expressions.

It was unknown what arrangements they had made. However, even though the surrounding [Man-eating Tree Demons] were all waving their vines crazily, these tree demons did not approach them.

“…What a coincidence.”

Wang Xiao smiled awkwardly and greeted him. After all, it was really embarrassing for him to be seen like this by defeated opponents.

However, to Wang Xiao’s surprise, not only did the three of them not take the opportunity to mock him, but they immediately went forward and saved him from the iron cage. All of them looked obedient, as if they had done something wrong.

“What’s wrong with you guys?”

Sensing that something was wrong, Wang Xiao asked directly. Although the strength of these three people was inferior to his, there was no need for them to be so respectful, right?

“I-It’s nothing…”

The leader of the hunters replied vaguely and pointed at the ruins of the fortress beside him. “Is that fortification yours?”

“It’s not mine. It’s kind of my friend’s.”

Wang Xiao replied casually. As soon as he finished speaking, he felt that something was wrong. He looked at the three people with strange expressions in front of him and suddenly thought of something. His expression changed slightly. “That group of [Skeleton Grey Sparrows]…”

“Mr. Wang, I’m sorry!”

...


Before Wang Xiao could finish, the leader of the hunters hurriedly apologized. “We were far away just now and thought that it was a large mutated beast, so we wanted to use the Man-Eating Tree Demon to wear it down and bring it to you. In the end…”

Wang Xiao immediately did not know whether to laugh or cry, but he could not say anything. After all, these three people had good intentions.

“Sigh… It’s all fate!”

Wang Xiao sighed helplessly and pointed at the remains of the fortress. “Did you see the people inside?”

The three secret realm hunters looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time. “We didn’t see anyone else when we came over.”

Wang Xiao’s expression changed slightly. Only a few minutes had passed since the accident, but Xu Junrou and Yi Han had disappeared. Did they deliberately give up, or did they believe that he would be fine?
