Chapter 89: The Female Warrior Acted As A Shield, Bringing Doom to the Tree Spirit!
The monster's attacks were numerous and mysterious.
For example, the tentacle monster was especially skilled at squeezing through gaps and launching high-speed strikes like a pile driver.
If one wasn't careful in dealing with these monsters, they could easily fall into despair!
This is different from dealing with monster girls.
Both of them were knocked down and humiliated, but at least most of the monster girls were very cute. It's hard to say who suffered more in the end.
However, the monsters controlled by the tree spirit were different. Most of them looked strange and grotesque, just one glance could make weak-hearted female adventurers faint in fear.
However, Miss Knight, who was spinning and jumping in the center of the monsters with her spiral sword, took it easy.
Thanks to her optimistic nature, even though she frowned when she saw the appearance of these monsters, she didn't feel scared inside. Instead, she felt an inexplicable excitement.
First of all, it should be clarified that she is not a weirdo, she doesn't enjoy bizarre elements. She is a respectable woman!
It's just that in such an environment, Loria doesn't dislike this strange excitement.
This is her first time battling these monsters. Without this excitement surging through her body, negative emotions would definitely weaken her strength.
Now, even though she needs to face attacks from a dozen terrifying monsters and occasionally cut off their scheming tentacles, she still remains calm.
This calmness actually comes from Loria's confidence in her own abilities.
In "Overwhelm the Many", with the blessings of nun gloves and a simplified version of the red cat outfit, her endurance successfully rose to 84 points.
This is already a terrifying level, although it can't compare to the ferocious tree spirit, she stands out among the others present, both humans and monsters.
You should know that increasing endurance not only boosts physical strength, but also various resistances, including physical resistance.
Physical resistance, in simple terms, refers to the ability to withstand attacks!
The attack range of the Spiral Sword is 360 degrees, but it can't cover a spherical area. Therefore, while maneuvering through the pile of monsters, Loria inevitably gets hit by the monsters.
But...
Big, big, big!
The strength of these monsters is mostly equivalent to E-level adventurers.
When their attacks land on Miss Knight, it's like someone lightly tapping her body with a massager.
Hurt?
Almost can be ignored.
Can't say there is no impact at all.
After all, Loria's body is very sensitive. If she is touched by a massager, she will definitely react.
But after experiencing the impact of a massager on the second level, she can remain calm when facing this level of impact.
"Weak, weak, weak!"
Loria directly turned up the mocking level.
She not only wants to attack the physical bodies of these monsters with a big sword, but also wants to torment their spirits with a mocking attitude and trash talk!
Before the battle officially began, she realized that it was impossible for her to stop more than a hundred monsters at once with ordinary means, given her agility.
Only by angering these monsters and making them ignore others, surrounding her and attacking together, is the right way.
This is not difficult.
Because the brains of low-level monsters are mostly not very good, much worse than her.
If not, in the simulation, those monster girls would not knowingly come in a queue to bully her.
"Hmph, trying to escape?"
With one sword, Loria chopped two tentacles into pieces and as she turned around, she noticed that several monsters on the outskirts were preparing to leave her and go after Miss Plump Sheep.
She immediately used Kitty's Pace and transformed into a nimble red cat. In the blink of an eye, she stood in front of those few monsters.
"Taste my great sword!"
Swish, swish.
The sword light fell like rain, and the screams of the monsters pierced the sky.
The guildmaster, who had just rushed closer, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw Loria so effortlessly in control.
Under her intense training, Loria's fighting skills improved rapidly. It seemed like she didn't have to worry too much about Loria's safety for the time being.
Let's follow the plan and proceed accordingly.
She saw that the little shield knight was already grappling with the tree spirit. As the main physical attacker, she now needed to join the fight and provide damage output.
"Keep up, keep up, keep up!"
After a few shouts, guildmaster, two other swordsmen, Vita, and another assassin all charged forward.
The intense battle officially began.
In the wilderness, countless vines intertwined like cages.
But in the next moment, the fiery red sword burst open like an exploding bomb, shattering the woven vine cage into pieces.
The person standing in the center was guildmaster, her golden hair dancing in the wind. Her presence was as captivating as her towering chest.
In the moment the tree spirit was dumbfounded, Vita grabbed the spike and appeared behind the tree spirit.
"Ah!"
Accompanied by a sharp scream, a visible white liquid mark appeared on the tree spirit's back.
Bang, bang, bang.
The vines shot out, attempting to pierce Vita.
However, Vita, who had immersed herself in the ways of an assassin for many years, had already dodged before the tree spirit made its move.
The vine attack missed its target, followed closely by a torrent of golden light.
Magic: Star Shower!
The tree spirit continued to roar, the pain didn't make him the least bit afraid, only more and more agitated.
"It's not time yet."
Loria, still careful at times and bold at others, tugged and fought with the monsters.
The Energy Vampire was her winning move, but she couldn't reveal it now in front of the tree spirit.
Let's wait a little longer, until the tree spirit has more wounds.
Anyway, her energy is still abundant now, she has plenty of time to continue dealing with these monsters.
Actually, Loria hasn't even shown her true abilities yet.
Her limits are much higher than this, not to mention she can further increase her power by installing a tail. She hasn't even used the 10% bonus from the Heart of the Succubus yet.
This is not what she wants to keep a secret.
The main thing is that she found out through simulation that this battle is a tug of war, and it will basically take half a day to determine the winner.
So she can't get herself too excited too early.
Otherwise, before the tree spirit reveals any weaknesses, she herself would collapse on the battlefield because she can't hold it in any longer.
By then, those monsters that she had bullied mercilessly will definitely go crazy and rush towards her, and the situation will become unimaginable.
"Let's see who can endure it!"
Loria deliberately prepared several bottles of love potion in her inventory, as well as three tails of different sizes, so she can enter her ultimate state at any time.
Just as Loria is slowly attracting the monsters towards the tree spirit, Miss Plump Sheep, who has been preparing for a long time, finally shot her first super magic bullet.
"Gushing Waterfall!"
On the sapphire blue wand, a huge blue water ball with a diameter of one meter flew out like a cannonball, soaring straight above the tree spirit.
Under the influence of immense magic power, all the birds and beasts within a ten-mile radius were frightened and hurriedly fled.
"Move aside!"
The guildmaster sensed something was wrong and was the first to retreat, followed by the others one by one.
Just as they had taken only twenty meters back, the blue water ball exploded with a deafening bang, and the surging blue light instantly dyed the sky a different color.
Immediately after, a gushing flood rushed out directly, like a giant hammer falling from the sky and smashing into the tree crown of the tree spirit.
Loria gently wiped off the splashes on her cheeks.
As she looked into the distance, she saw that half of the tree branches of the tree spirit had been broken by this impact, and the dry vines were soaked and decayed.
This seemed to completely anger the tree spirit.
The tree spirit needs to absorb water, but more water is not always better.
Not everyone is like Loria who can be used as a small reservoir.
"You are walking down a path of self-destruction!"
The tree spirit simply cut off the rotten vines, and with a violent shake, its branches were repaired and the vines grew back.
"Ugh, can't we kill him?"
Miss Plump Sheep stomped her foot in frustration.
This was not her strongest move, but if she used her strongest move, she would have to gather energy for half a day, and she suspected that by the time she had gathered enough energy, the battle would already be over.
Loria was also helpless.
Elemental advantages are effective against monsters too.
If Miss Plump Sheep had just spewed flames, the destructive power would have been several times higher.
But even though she was slandered as a humanoid succubus, she didn''t have the ability to turn Miss Plump Sheep's water into fire.
In fact, she had also considered using fire as an attack, but ordinary flames had no effect on the powerful tree spirit.
Keep enduring.
Loria is extremely busy.
As the main tank, she not only had to attract the attacks of monsters, but also had to timely block the frenzy of the tree spirit. When necessary, she also had to retreat to rescue Miss Plump Sheep, who has shorter legs than her.
Luckily, she knew Kitty's Pace, otherwise she would have been really busy.
"Be careful, he's going to spray tree sap!"
When they saw the tree spirit's body rapidly expanding, Loria immediately shouted, and the prepared members of the extermination squad retreated.
White tree sap splashed all over the sky, but in the end, it splashed in loneliness.
"It's right now!"
After multiple simulations, Loria deeply understood that after the tree spirit sprayed the controlling sap, there would be a brief period of stiffness, which was the perfect opportunity to drain the tree spirit's energy.
Under her command, everyone attacked the tree spirit together.
Blades and knives kept coming, and more and more wounds appeared on the tree spirit's body.
Loria quickly approached and used her resilient burst to start draining the tree spirit's energy without hesitation.
At this point, the tree spirit was covered in wounds and definitely couldn't understand where the lost energy went.
"Stop them, quickly stop them!"
The tree spirit became somewhat panicked.
He couldn't understand why these people knew his weakness so well, so he had no choice but to command all the nearby monsters to defend.
This was exactly what Loria wanted.
She didn't want to fight the tree spirit alone, but when other monsters gathered around her, she could activate her spiral sword and not worry about running out of energy.
Spin, I'll spin again!
The big sword kept slashing across the tree spirit's trunk, making the tree spirit cry out in pain.
Maybe because the tree spirit had too much hatred towards Loria, it gathered dozens of vines and directly flung Loria away.
Loria quickly got up from the ground, followed by a healing spell, which made the pain in her body disappear instantly.
"This is not over yet!"
Loria wasn't afraid at all, getting hit was her specialty.
She tried to rush to the tree spirit again.
But under the tree spirit's command, the surrounding monsters attacked her like crazies, trying to stop her.
"Simple tricks!"
Kitty's Pace can fly up to the sky.
Loria dashed diagonally upwards, breaking free from the encirclement. When she reached the end, she landed with both hands holding the sword, and her right foot stomping heavily on the main body of the tentacle monster.
Poof -
The high heels turned into boots of Monster Girl poked a hole directly on the body of the tentacle monster.
It can only be blamed that this tentacle monster is too weak.
Loria immediately used the spiral sword technique.
The storm caused by the sword swept away the original monsters, and the spinning heel directly pierced the brain stem of the tentacle monster, causing it to die completely and slimy.
With one sword strike, Loria's energy not only didn't decrease, but increased instead.
She waited for Kitty's Pace to cool down, then charged again, this time landing directly on top of the tree spirit's crown.
Cut the mountain with force!
Bang, bang, bang.
With one sword, Loria cut off more than ten branches, and a large shield appeared out of thin air in her left hand as she landed.
At this point, the monsters completely ignored Miss Plump Sheep, and she could patiently deal with them and the tree spirit.
A tough battle began, with Loria transforming into a wall, blocking the tree spirit's path of attack inch by inch.
It must be said that the battle with the tree spirit was much more difficult than the battle with the monsters.
As she got whipped more and more, even without drinking the love potion, she started feeling excited.
"Darn it, we must defeat the tree spirit before it explodes!"
Watching the wildness of the controlled monsters, Loria felt relieved that she had practiced early.
Otherwise, she would definitely bring a large group of adventurers to attack the tree spirit. At that time, under the effect of the tree spirit's sap, the adventurers would turn on each other and the battle would become a meat grinder.
"It's not over yet, your opponent is me!"
Loria kept getting knocked down time after time, but she kept getting back up.
This scene made Miss Plump Sheep deeply respectful and guildmaster feel pity.
But guildmaster knew that all of this was necessary.
If she wanted to train Loria to become an excellent knight, she couldn't let Loria stay in a protective environment forever.
She couldn't help Loria, but she continued with the plan and caused more injuries to the tree spirit's body.
From morning to noon, from noon to afternoon.
From direct confrontation to evading, from evading to fighting and stopping.
Finally, when guildmaster's sword pierced through the tree spirit's ugly old face again, Loria realized her opportunity had come.
"Curses! If only Doris were here, with a magic spell to restore strength, I could inflict severe damage on the tree spirit. Now, I can only trick him into using that energy-consuming trump card."
Loria decided to discard her large shield and charge forward once again, wielding two large swords.
"Your end has come, tree spirit!"
With a continuous sequence of strikes combining slashes and spinning sword techniques, Loria's face turned red and she became out of breath, but the tree spirit grew increasingly weary.
At this moment.
Vita, holding a sharp thorn and wandering around the outskirts, fell into silence.
She and the people here were not the same after all. She came here not to avenge the tree spirit, but to set the tree spirit free.
However, she remembered all the enthusiastic faces she had seen on the way here, the uplifting slogans she had heard, and the exhausted figures reflected in her eyes.
Was she really the one who would destroy such efforts?
From the very beginning, she disagreed with the idea of destroying the entire Creek Town.
But she had no say.
She was just a knife, a knife for killing.
Knives are tools, and tools shouldn't have their own thoughts.
But how could a person be exactly like a real tool?
She also has her own thoughts, even if she is locked in chains, those chains cannot lock up her thoughts.
Vita's thoughts gradually drifted away, far back to the time she last spoke with her instructor.
