Casting spells

However, after seeing the tree of chaos, the surrounding ecological environment immediately took a 180-degree turn. Not only can you see all kinds of strange animals and plants everywhere, but also the huge leaves and roots have accumulated water one by one. There are small pits, some of which are more than a thousand meters in diameter, equivalent to a small pool or lake.

Without any hesitation!

The thirsty and hungry church knights rushed directly under the Chaos Tree covered with intricate roots at the fastest speed, and couldn't wait to drink the slightly sweet water, and some took out their bows and crossbows to shoot those who looked A plump looking animal.

Just an hour and a half later, they picked up a large pile of dead branches full of grease, lit a bonfire next to a pool, and planned to enjoy a delicious and hearty wild meal.

Especially the translucent fish in the pool, so delicious that they almost swallowed their tongues together, without realizing that the danger had come quietly.

……

"Hey! Rom! Did you hear any strange noises!" A knight who was gnawing on a bone stopped his hands, and his glasses showed a look of vigilance.

But unfortunately, another knight named Roma didn't take it seriously. After swallowing the food in his mouth, he couldn't help laughing and scolding: "Don't be crazy! There is no movement. Didn't we just search There are not even any threatening beasts around, so eat your barbecue with peace of mind."

"Well, maybe I'm a little nervous."

The former shrugged his shoulders, opened his mouth, and tore off a piece of golden-yellow, slightly bloodshot fresh meat steak.

The two of them didn't know it at all. While they were talking, several black shadows holding primitive weapons had already unknowingly lurked on the branches, staring at every move below with green eyes.

Needless to ask, it is known that these distorted and weirdly shaped beings that have begun to possess initial intelligence are the special species that have begun to evolve uncontrollably under the influence of the tree of chaos.

To be precise, the few who came today are all monsters who like to eat the brains of intelligent life.

It's also not clear whether it needs some kind of substance contained in the brain of intelligent life, or just to satisfy the soft taste.

In short, even within the influence range of the strange and strange Tree of Chaos, they can be regarded as out-and-out aliens, feared, rejected, and hated by other species.

Hunting is the instinct of carnivores, a killing instinct engraved in genes.

As long as a species has not permanently eliminated meat from its diet, this instinct will never disappear, no matter how technology and society develop.

It will only be temporarily hidden under the constraints of law and morality. Once the existing order collapses or is stimulated by the outside world, the instinct of killing and hunting will immediately awaken and do many things that are unacceptable to ordinary people living in a peaceful environment. Madness.

Obviously, these monsters who like to eat the brains of intelligent creatures are absolutely [-]% meat eaters.

Although it was the first time for them to encounter the largest number of indigenous people on this planet, they were not afraid at all.

After briefly confirming the number of prey, the leader raised the sharpened wooden spear in his hand and waved it at the other companions around him.

The latter understood it, and jumped up and down on the branches with their well-developed upper limbs. After a while, every knight had at least one monster on top of his head.

Accustomed to plane combat, they undoubtedly forgot that their position was the root of a giant tree, completely ignoring the need to check whether it was safe above their heads.

next second...

All the monsters jumped from high places and launched surprise attacks on their prey.

Although the wooden spears are very simple and can't even pierce the steel breastplate, too many knights are thrown by these powerful monsters before they have time to react, and then they are smashed on the head by stones , With a bang, his head was bleeding, and he lost the ability to fight back.

The monsters were also unceremonious, and directly opened the wound with their hook-like fingers, greedily sucking the red and white brains.

This primitive, savage, and cruel scene frightened the captain of the knights. He pulled out his sword and cut off the head of the monster around him. He roared angrily, "Go to hell! Monster! Hurry up! Take everything that can move!" Take up arms! If you don't want to die!"

"Sword! Give me the sword!"

"Shield! I need a shield!"

"Damn! I need cover!"

……

The few lucky ones who survived the sudden attack immediately dropped the food in their hands, quickly formed a battle formation back to back, and resisted the superior number of monsters through cooperation.

Fortunately, these brain-eating monsters did not seem to be reckless. After besieging for a while, they found that they could not help each other. They quickly took the corpses, jumped onto the branches in twos and disappeared deep in the dense branches and leaves.

Looking at the remaining blood on the ground around him, the knight captain suddenly shivered, and said to himself in a voice that only he could hear: "Great Goddess of Darkness! What kind of place did you lead us to? Those monsters What is it again? A demon?"

It's a pity that the goddess didn't give him a clear answer, not even a little response.

The first thousand 190 eight chapters amnesia

Undoubtedly, the sudden attack brought the already exhausted team to the brink of despair and collapse.

Especially seeing the scene of the partner who lived and died with his own eyes being opened and his brains sucked out alive, it was like a nightmare that kept magnifying in his mind, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't forget it.

However, as church knights with firm beliefs, they did not forget their mission.

After resting for a while, following the leader's lead, he began to move towards the top of the tree along the winding path connected by vines and branches.

Because they had to figure out why the Goddess of Darkness sent herself to such a dangerous and weird place before they were all dead, an independent environment formed by towering giant trees, a world completely different from the outside world.

But soon, the intruder realized how ignorant and shallow his knowledge of this place was.

When it is more than 300 meters away from the complex tree roots in the middle of the ground, the lush branches and vines mix together to form umbrella-shaped platforms one after another. The small ones are as big as half a football field, and the larger ones are like large Like an island in the sea.

Moreover, there are many strange creatures that have never been seen on each platform, and some of them have built simple houses, used primitive tools, and even traded with each other occasionally.

Everything indicates that this group of weird creatures actually has a considerable degree of intelligence and the lowest level of civilization.

"My God! Where did these guys come from? How come I never heard of it before?"

A surviving church knight focused his attention on the naked creatures with long gray hairs in the distance, and couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

Because they were gathering together, like hardworking bees, a wooden statue with a height of three meters was erected.

Although the appearance of this statue is quite abstract, and it is impossible to tell what it is, the appearance of worshipable objects means that they are no longer satisfied with eating and drinking like animals, and compete with each other for mating rights during estrus, doing their best Let your genes be passed on, but start to pursue spiritual satisfaction.

"Be careful! Don't disturb them! I'm not sure if they are the same as the group of monsters that attacked us before." The knight captain subconsciously clenched the hilt of his sword, his eyes showing strong vigilance.

There is no way not to be vigilant!

Just on the road 300 meters above the ground, he encountered several attacks. Giant insects and poisonous snakes accounted for more than half of them, and the rest were these strange-looking intelligent creatures.

"Don't worry, Captain, they should be different from the ones we encountered before. Have you noticed the plants planted in those pools? Compared with those hunting guys, they have obviously learned rough farming. Through planting Come to get food." Another knight pointed to the row of purple-red fruits on the stand on the side of the platform.

Just as he was speaking, there was a little guy who looked younger, picked a fruit from the shelf, stuffed it into his mouth and swallowed it.

Needless to ask, this unknown fruit is a stable source of food for this group.

"Farming? Damn it! This place is getting weirder and weirder. Anyway, we have to be careful, and there will be no large-scale attrition." The captain complained, climbing along a thick vine go up.

Several team members followed closely behind, although they were already very tired, eager to find a safe place to stop and rest for a while, followed by a good night's sleep.

But the cruel reality forced them to keep moving forward, and they didn't dare to stay in one place for more.

Because no one knew whether he would have a chance to wake up after stopping to sleep.
