As a Sword Saint, I Want to Be a Demon King

"Once I met Elek in the forest, she easily defeated me, and she didn't even give me a chance to call the tree spirit for help."

There was a hint of fear on his face:

"But she didn't kill me... I've been working for her since then, becoming a pawn in her ambush in Farnes."

"So it is."

The silver-haired girl nodded and said:

"Is that ancient tree spirit strong? Even Elek and the great sage can't do anything about it?"

"Its strength is indeed unbelievably strong, but this is not the most critical reason."

Leonard replied:

"The most dreadful thing about it is the ability to infinitely transform souls."

"Transform soul? What do you mean?"

"It is to devour the souls of various creatures, and then transform those souls into their subordinates."

Hearing this, Aiwen suddenly felt that this kind of thing seemed familiar:

——Isn't this the "Tree Demon" boss I met in the Demon King's trial?

"No wonder the trees are so kind to me."

She tapped her head with her fingers and suddenly realized:

"Because I absorbed the soul energy of the 391st floor BOSS...so they regard me as 'one of my own'."

Chapter 240 The Big Tree That Eats People

After figuring this out, she gradually understood the context of the matter:

"Plants should be afraid of fire... In addition to the breath of the same kind, I also have a fire-type soul;"

"So these trees just help me, but they don't seem too close to me."

"They don't even want to get close to me, they stay away every time."

——In that case, doesn't this so-called ancient elemental life seem too smart?

Even though she showed two extreme characteristics, the other party still thinks she is "the same kind".

"The behavior of the man in black is also a bit strange."

She looked at the old magician who stayed in place tremblingly, and always felt that something was wrong:

"With her wisdom, she shouldn't fail to understand that this guy is a dangerous factor, but she still sent him to help me."

"If I'm a little careless, maybe he will succeed."

"Could it be that this is deliberately testing me?"

The silver-haired girl thought for a while, then walked up to Leonard with her sword in hand, and asked him some questions about Farnes.

As a great magister, although Leonard is not considered a high-level executive in the Magic Kingdom, he still knows quite a lot of secrets.

"Is this one of those messenger whistles?"

She asked for the flute, and according to the method the other party said, she blew on it with magic power.

A harsh-sounding sound wave sounded from beside my ears!

The sound of the flute immediately spread in all directions, and it sounded very clear.

"Leonard... You just said that you are the only one who can communicate with the ancient tree spirits, is that true?"

The silver-haired girl put the flute in her pocket.

"Yes."

Leonard lowered his head and answered the question honestly.

"If there is a second person who has the same ability as you and can communicate with the ancient tree spirit;"

The silver-haired girl put the sword around his neck and asked slowly:

"What would you do?"

"—Of course I killed him!"

Leonard said without hesitation, with a stern look on his face:

"I will never let other people enjoy the same treatment as me, and it is impossible for others to know my secret—"

"puff!"

Blood splattered!

Before he finished speaking, his head rolled to the ground.

"Thank you for helping me make a choice."

The silver-haired girl put the sword back into the sheath, looked at the corpse of the great magister and said:

"Anyway, you have done so many bad things... Today is more than enough to die."

"Master, what shall we do with him?"

Xianya asked:

"Or let him become the fertilizer of the trees."

"good idea."

The silver-haired girl had no sympathy for this vicious guy.

But what happened next was surprising.

——I saw a branch stretched out to the ground, grabbing the corpse directly.

Then a big tree next to it opened its mouth and threw the body of the "old friend" into it.

"These trees really can eat people!"

The silver-haired girl shuddered:

"And even the corpses of acquaintances are not spared."

"It seems that the ancient tree spirit is not a good thing."

She secretly thought:

Do you want to kill the opponent just like you did with the boss?

"Leonard...are you there?"

Suddenly a sharp sound wave came from a distance.

"Leonard..."

It seemed that many people were shouting Leonard's name, gradually moving towards this side.

Oops.

The silver-haired girl looked at the blood on the ground, and quickly wiped away her footprints and other traces.

Then he hid in a tree and watched the remaining 10 magicians surround him from afar.

"Why do they look so miserable?"

Seeing Ariel Emerald's tattered robes and dusty face, someone was quite surprised:

"I remember that the least strength of these people is that they started as magisters. Did they meet some powerful enemies?"

"The sound should come from around here."

A magician looked around and said:

"I'm sure I heard right."

"That means Leonard has gone in other directions."

Ali Emerida nodded and said:

"Everyone forms three teams and looks around. He must not have gone far!"

"Wait a minute! There seems to be a smell of blood here."

The magician sniffed the air and shouted vigilantly:

"And it's still fresh."

"Really, it does smell like blood."

Another magician said:

"I summoned the familiar to take a look, maybe I could find some clues."

He summoned his familiar, a green ignition demon.

This demon is very small in size, but has a sharp nose, which is very suitable for detecting lurking enemies and finding corpses.

"!"

Soon the ignition demon found the tree, pointed to the trunk, and indicated that the smell of blood came from there.

"The tree has a crack."

Allie Emerida pondered:

"Let's do it together and tear it apart!"

Oops.

The silver-haired girl didn't expect the other party to be so careful, and found the place where the corpse was hidden based on the smell of blood.

Leonard saw that he was hacked to death by a sword. Although there was no evidence, he was the only swordsman here, so he would definitely be suspected.

She thought about it, and tried to activate the power of shadow on the tree.

"Susu..."
