Chapter 962 Dead Tree

"No! If the other party is a night elf like Yaoji, even if you can get close, you may not be able to defeat it! What's more, she has enough time to shoot you at such a long distance!" Zhang Fan disagrees with the green wing adventure. While talking, there were several sharp arrows on the shield. However, Zhang Fan felt that the threat of the other party did not seem to be strong. If it's Yaoji, I'm afraid this shield can't be defended. This is probably related to the fact that the tree of life has withered, and the power of the night elves has weakened.

"What should I do?" The green wing also took out a shield and blocked it in front of him.

After Zhang Fan hid on the shield, he took out a green leaf with his other hand, which was a green leaf as beautiful as emerald.

"Yoji..." Zhang Fan called softly, and the green leaves emitted green light, which formed a three-dimensional rune, reflecting a blurred space illusion in front of Zhang Fan.

Not long, a beautiful figure appeared in the space charm array. When the green light dissipated, the long-lost Yaoji stood beside Zhang Fan in a very natural costume. Along with her, an ugly semi-mechanical guardian mantis appeared.

Before Zhang Fan's question, Yao Ji raised her hand and shot an arrow, as if a fresh breeze had blown by. The arrow made by the branches and leaves of life actually intercepted the sharp arrow shot from the opposite side halfway, and shot it down, and the remaining momentum did not decrease to shoot at the other party!

After a while, I heard Yaoji's crisp voice and said, "Okay, it's okay. You can come out!"

Green Wing was the first to run out and greeted happily, "Sister Yaoji, don't come? You still take it..." The semi-mechanical mantis knew Zhang Fan's green wings and looked very excited and only jumped around the two.

Other people also came out of the hiding place. Although they saw another person at the scene, Catalina and Captain Hooker were not surprised for a long time. Zhang Fan bowed his head to treat Captain Hook's arrow wounds. The sharp arrow pulled out from Captain Hook was also made of dry branches. Compared with Yaoji's arrow, it was like a fresh and vibrant plant and a dead branch. But where it was hit by this sharp arrow, the skin and flesh began to dry and break, like rotten wood chips.

Zhang Fan's Buddha curse could not cure the injury, and the arrow wound was still expanding. This made Zhang Fan a little helpless and gritted his teeth to cut off Captain Hooker's rotten skin like wood chips with a dagger.

"Let me do it..." Yaoji and Green Wing said hello, and then smiled and pulled Zhang Fan away to check Captain Hook's injury.

"Withering, hey, it's lucky for me to come." Yaoji whispered, crushed a green leaf in her hand, squeezed out some juice, and dripped into Captain Hooker's wound. The green juice penetrated into the sawdust-like carrion, and the skin and flesh slowly recovered the appearance of human flesh and blood and exposed the real wound.

"Ah--" Captain Hook exclaimed bitterly. The place where he was originally hurt has always been numb, like real dead wood, unconscious. At this time, I felt the pain of being shot by a sharp arrow.

"All right." Yao Ji stood up with a smile and said to Zhang Fan's green wings, "Let's take a look at my poor compatriots. However, you still have to be careful that although this tree of life is dead, it is still full of danger. Oh, I'm afraid it has become a tree of the dead..."

"Dead Tree?" Zhang Fan was surprised.

"Isn't the tree of life with only soul and no life a tree of undead?" Yaoji nodded.

"Who just attacked us? ..." Green Wing asked.

"That is the guardian night elf nurtured by the undead tree in the image he remembered in his lifetime. But it's just a monster with an empty body and no soul. Yaoji was a little gloomy, "I just shot him to death, but there should be more than one. It's just that the time they exist is very limited, and if there is no strength to replenish, they can no longer be nurtured... Strangely, this undead tree should have existed for a long time. Why hasn't it lost its vitality and can still contain guardian elves? Has he always been replenished with life energy?

Yaoji seemed to be talking to herself. She accelerated her pace and ran to the withered tree of life. The semi-mechanical mantis jumped in the air and followed its owner, and everyone followed.

Everyone rushed into the withered forest formed by giant trees and saw a thin monster killed on the trunk by an arrow made of fresh branches and leaves. This monster is a bit like a goblin, but it is much bigger, with no tail, dark brown skin, and dry bark, which is a little ugly. It still held a pair of bow and arrow made of dead wood in its hand and stared at it, as if it couldn't close its eyes.

Just as everyone looked at the monster, their attention was attracted. I only heard the "crack!" on this huge tree. The sound, as if something burst. Everyone looked up in panic and saw that there was something like a dry fruit cracking on the dead branches. The same monster fell from inside. As soon as the monster landed, he pulled away the bow and arrow in his hand and shot at everyone!

Everyone is a little panicked! Only Yaoji calmly pulled her bow and arrow and shot an arrow against it. She not only shot down the monster's sharp arrow, but also shot it through her throat and died on the trunk of the tree!

Everyone was just relieved, but they heard a numbing "crack!" on the giant tree. The sound of cracking! Looking up, the sweat pores on my body were scared to explode! Between the branches of the dead tree, countless dry fruits are bursting, and in each fruit, there seems to be an ugly monster!

So many monsters have been hatched, which is simply an army! Aren't you going to be shot into hedgehogs by random arrows?! Thinking of the tragic situation after Captain Hooker was shot, everyone was frightened. The eyes are all directed at Yaoji...

Yoji is also very shocked! So many soulless night elves, even if they can defeat them, they can't protect these human beings well! So she shouted, "Everyone, run forward!" As long as I run to the 'Moon Well', I can deal with them! Hurry up! Run!" After saying that, the leader ran away!

Zhang Fan immediately greeted everyone: "Everyone keep up and run to the 'Moon Well'!"

"What 'Moon Well'?" Katrina ran with Yaoji and asked Zhang Fan.

"Well, that's what you call the 'spring of youth'!" Zhang Fan dragged Captain Hook, activated the flight skills on the armor, reduced the weight, and ran fast!

Yaoji shot while running, shooting the monsters with the greatest threat one by one, which relieved a great burden for everyone. Dornier also opened fire with Gatling's cannon to cover everyone's escape with heavy fire. However, this also makes it the target of these monsters. Donier's huge size does not need to aim at these soulless night elves who are good at archery. Before long, Donier was shot dozens of arrows, screamed strangely, turned into a doll and fell to the ground!

This guy is rough and thick-skinned, but he can't stand too many monsters. Fortunately, as a prop follower, he won't really die, but in a short time, he can't be summoned anymore. The arrow attack power of these monsters is also ridiculous!

Losing Donier's cover, the situation became more critical. One of the backward black natives was shot with an arrow, screamed, and slowed down. Now he became the target of those monsters, and countless sharp arrows were shot over.

Although these soulless night elves have not been discovered, their archery skills completely inherit the accuracy of the night elves! Maybe the strength and additional magic are not as strong as the official night elf like Yaoji, but there are many! The unlucky native, who ran slowly and attracted firepower, was instantly caught by the hedgehog. The body seemed to be dehydrated, quickly dried and shattered into debris like wood chips. Before they could even send out the final call for help, they collapsed in front of everyone's eyes!

Seeing this guy's miserable situation, everyone was scared to death. They only hated that their parents had two legs and ran wildly among the withered giant woods! From time to time, dead branches and arrows were shot behind him, and not long after, a black native was shot and fell into pieces. Catherine was pulled by the green wing and also activated the flight skills on the leather armor, which was much faster. Those indigenous people are slow without help. Naturally, it is easy to be caught up and shot by the night elf archers who shuttle through the forest!

Seeing that he was close to the trunk of the giant tree, Zhang Fan left Captain Hook and ran back to pick up the native who fell at the end. The guy was scared by the tragic death of his two companions and used all his ability to escape, but he did not fall behind. However, he was hit by an arrow in his arm. Fortunately, Zhang Fan arrived in time to block a wave of arrows for him!

When everyone came to the trunk of this dead tree of life, those soulless night elf archers no longer shot arrows, and they dared not shoot their sacred trees. It's just surrounded, or aimed at the branches, or ambushed under the thick rhizome, or grinning on the periphery. But they are all 30 meters away and not close to here.

"Let's take a break first. They won't get close to the 'Moon Well'." Yaoji put away her bow and arrow and said to everyone. However, under the peeping of so many enemies, who can rest at ease? Yaoji ignored everyone. After treating the arrow wound for the indigenous person, she ran to the dry 'moon well' to pray...

Zhang Fan looked at the dead tree of life and found that his trunk had been hollowed out, forming a huge natural tree hole! It's a miracle that he can still support such a huge canopy and not fall down. Of course, this is because the tree of life is like a banyan tree in the virgin forest of Xishuangbanna, with many thick roots supporting the canopy.

The 'moon well' at the root of the tree of life has dried up for a long time, leaving only a pool of mud, accumulated at the bottom of the shallow well. It looks like a mud pit.
