Chapter 2333 Explosion

“Hahaha!”

Tam Sangga personally led the charge into the battlefield, determined to go down with the Leaf tribe. He unleashed the power of sacrificial offerings from the tree spirit tribe, wreaking havoc upon the habitat of the Leaf tribe. He laughed wildly, with a hint of madness, “Very well! Even if I perish here today, I will make you pay!”

As he spoke, several giant trees emerged from the rolling mud, aiming directly at the shields held up by two elders of the Leaf tribe.

With a ‘bang’, the shields shattered.

The Leaf tribe team, protected under the shield, suffered severe injuries and descended into chaos.

Senzo frowned deeply.

He masterminded this operation against the Wood tribe, believing his strategic planning could severely cripple them. However, he anticipated that the Wood tribe would not be fatally wounded, and certainly not to the extent of disregarding everything as they were now.

Though enraged to the extreme, Senzo forced himself to restrain his emotions and said in a low voice, ‘Tam Sangga, there might be a misunderstanding between us. Don’t fall into the enemy’s trap.’

“Hahaha! Trap?”

Seeing Senzo still feigning ignorance fueled even more anger in Tam Sangga. He spoke icily, “Stop pretending in front of me! I have already found out that the polluted sacred tree seedling was obtained by your Leaf tribe during the last stay in the habitat! What’s this? You can destroy our sacred tree sapling, but not the courage to admit it?”

Destroy the sacred tree sapling?!

Senzo was shocked upon hearing this news for the first time. His initial reaction was to question the accuracy of this information.

The sacred tree sapling was of the utmost importance to each clan.

So many people protecting it, there was no way anything could go wrong.

But…

Could Tam Sangga have any reason to lie to him?

The entire Wood tribe poured out in full force, seemingly prepared for a life-or-death confrontation…

The more Senzo thought about it, the more he found the news likely to be true!

But it couldn’t possibly be true!

Why would the sacred tree of the Wood tribe be polluted and destroyed?

But it couldn’t possibly be true!

Why would the sacred tree of the Wood tribe be polluted and destroyed?

Could it be the three polluted sacred tree seeds he secretly prepared for Fang Heng?

That was impossible!

The power of polluted sacred tree saplings was limited; they could not possibly destroy an entire sacred tree sapling.

Then what could have happened?

Could it be Fang Heng?

Senzo’s mind was filled with uncertainty.

Throughout the entire plan, the only unstable variable was Fang Heng!

“How about it? You have nothing to say?” Tam Sangga sneered as he noticed Senzo standing there, momentarily unable to retort. “You say none of this has anything to do with your Leaf tribe. Let me ask you, Senzo, do you believe that?”

Senzo raised his head, his expression clouded with fluctuating emotions.

He had known Tam Sangga for hundreds of years. Judging from Tam Sangga’s reaction, the destruction of the Wood tribe’s sacred tree sapling was likely true.

Senzo was about to say something to steady Tam Sangga when suddenly, a commotion erupted from deep within the Leaf tribe’s habitat.

What?!

Senzo turned to look into the Leaf tribe’s habitat and saw a dense, visible black fog rising from the central area.

Black fog?!

Senzo’s pupils constricted.

Not good!

It was pollution!

Why would pollution suddenly appear within their Leaf tribe’s territory?!

And in that direction…

It was the underground central areas where the Leaf tribe had established their bases.

Suddenly, a profoundly ominous premonition arose in the mind of the Great Elder, Senzo.

Since the recent events began, the power of the sacred tree sapling had became extremely unstable.

Could this also be caused by pollution!?

If so, it was highly likely that the cultivation area of the sacred tree sapling deep underground had already encountered a disaster!

Vannes, who was engaged in battle not far away against the invasion of the Wood tribe, witnessed the sudden outbreak of pollution and his eyes widened in astonishment.

“Stay here to hold off the Wood tribe. The rest, follow me! We need to go back and see what’s happening!”

Without hesitation, Vannes led a group of subordinates toward the source of the pollution to investigate.

“Huh?”

At this moment, Tam Sangga also noticed that something was amiss. He looked at the spreading pollution not far away and uttered a soft exclamation.

Strange.

How could there be pollution within the territory of the Leaf tribe?

Senzo made a quick attack to force Tam Sangga back, then leaped back, his voice heavy with authority, “Everyone, stop fighting! Tam Sangga, you’ve seen it too. Our Leaf tribe is also affected by pollution. The destruction of your Wood tribe’s sacred tree sapling is not as simple as it seems on the surface. I swear on my life, it is definitely not the doing of our Leaf tribe.”

Tam Sangga stared coldly at Senzo, a hint of mockery on his face, “Oh? Is that so?”

“I promise you, give me some time. Once I investigate thoroughly, I will give you an explanation,” Senzo replied, casting a deep glance at Tam Sangga before hastily rushing toward the source of the pollution leak to provide reinforcement.

Tam Sangga pondered for a moment, then gestured for the Wood tribe team to temporarily halt their attack.

He couldn’t be sure how much truth was in Senzo’s words.

But at least the pollution fog was real.

The Leaf tribe was known for their cunning tricks, and he wondered what game they were playing.

“Let’s go! Gather our people,”

Tam Sangga pondered for a moment, then immediately led his elite Wood tribe warriors to follow Senzo.

Both the Wood tribe and the Leaf tribe maintained an unspoken agreement and temporarily ceased hostilities.

Soon, Senzo arrived with his group at the entrance to a crucial area below the Leaf tribe’s habitat, where dense black fog continued to spill out.

Vannes was leading the Leaf tribe guards in clearing the pollution outside the entrance.

Since much of the black fog had already dispersed into the internal passages, its concentration had significantly decreased.

They exchanged looks.

Senzo stepped forward, his hands forming a complex gesture in front of him.

Under a faint green glow, the black fog around them emitted a sizzling sound and rapidly dissipated at a visible rate.

…

Meanwhile, in another hidden and large warehouse within the underground domain of the Leaf tribe…

This area served as a vital storage location for the Leaf tribe’s precious materials. Most of the tribe’s important supplies were guarded here under constant supervision. Originally, this responsibility fell on a senior elder of the Leaf tribe who was on duty twenty-four hours a day.

However, due to the recent consecutive attacks on the Leaf tribe, the clan couldn’t spare enough elders for guard duty. Therefore, Elder Nanu, who had previously been severely injured, was temporarily reassigned here to protect the warehouse.

About ten minutes ago, with the eruption of the black fog, the Leaf tribe guards panicked and retreated into the warehouse, sealing the doors tightly. They huddled together, continuously purifying the black fog seeping through the door cracks, barely managing to preserve their lives.

They had thought the fog outside was gradually dissipating, believing the crisis was passing. Nanu decided to venture outside with his group to assess the situation.

However, as soon as they left the warehouse and entered the passage, they quickly encountered a horde of Lickers approaching from the other end of the corridor.

Seeing the swarm of Lickers, Elder Nanu was startled. He hurriedly led his people back into the warehouse and securely locked the entrance.

Unfortunately, the situation did not improve.

The Licker horde began attacking the warehouse door.

Inside the warehouse, the guards could hear the unmistakable sound of the Lickers outside wielding their claws, striking the metal door in waves.

This door would not be able to hold for much longer!

Nanu stared fixedly at the door, his palms sweating involuntarily.

“Boom!”

A deafening explosion resounded.

The warehouse door couldn’t withstand the force and burst open.

“Watch out!!”
