319 The Dark Withered Treants

[Note: These Dark Withered Treants don’t have any long-range attack abilities. With the use of long-range attacks, the Treants have a lesser chance of survival.]

Seven Shackles discovered the weakness of the Treants. “Close combat troops, retreat! Archers, attack!”

The surrounding troops retreated a few steps, while the Bright Creature Archers moved forward as they readied their bows and arrows.

“Fire!” shouted Seven Shackles.

He felt an indescribable fear in his heart, as though an ancient creature was watching him closely. Every cell in his body warned him of danger.

He was bewildered. He lowered his head to look at his feet. The ground around his feet was slowly sucking at his feet.

The soft ground couldn’t hold him up. His feet were slowly getting submerged as the ground tried to swallow his legs up to his ankles. ‘Dark Swamp!’

“Everyone, retreat immediately! This is a Dark Swamp!” said Seven Shackles.

A Light-Type hero that had followed him to attack also found its feet slowly submerging into the ground. The hero was so scared that he tried to flee.

However, every step took a lot of energy and force to pull out from the soft ground. The next step sank deeper than the previous.

The more they struggled in their panic, the deeper they sank.

The troops were scattered all over the land. It was chaos!

At this moment, the Treants moved toward the area with more troops. Their wooden limbs flailed. They exploded among the Light-Type troops. Blood and limbs flew everywhere.

The Light-Types attacked the Treants, but they couldn’t pierce through their wooden hides. As the Treants moved, the swamp churned like a vortex.

The Treants controlled the Dark Swamp!

Su Wan replaced the area with lots of Dark Withered Treants and turned it into a Dark Swamp a long time ago. The Dark Withered Treants controlled the vast area of the Dark Swamp.

When faced with a natural disaster like this, most of the troops lost their courage. The Light-Types were never known for their strong willpower. The Light-Types even pushed away their own allies in a hurry to escape.

The Dark Swamp extended to almost 10 kilometers in all directions. This was the Dark Withered Treants’ domain. No one could enter or leave as they pleased.

The swamp gurgled and surged. The more the Light-Types struggled to get away, the faster they were pulled into it.

Seven Shackles felt a chill run down his spine as he watched the Dark Withered Treants drown the Light-Types one by one. These monsters were too strong!

Seven Shackles had thought that these Treants had nothing to do with Su Wan’s territory. However, he was suspicious now. How had Su Wan managed to conquer such powerful creatures?

Seven Shackles was gripped by a feeling of helplessness as he watched numerous Light-Types being pulled down and drowned in the swamp.

More Light-Types and a few Lords were swallowed by the swamp right in front of him!

Seven Shackles had been so confident a few seconds ago, but now he was only filled with fear and hopelessness.

The Dark Swamp churned like a vortex and swallowed more troops. It didn’t give a chance for the enemies to escape.

The entire troop that had stepped into the Dark Swamp was swallowed whole. In the end, only a few survived.

When the last of them was swallowed whole, the Dark Swamp slowly returned to its original state. The forest looked lush with Dragon Fruits hanging above them. Nothing seemed wrong.

Seven Shackles was terrified. He didn’t want to venture into the Dark Territory.

“Guild Leader, what should we do?” asked one of the Lords.

That brought Seven Shackles back to reality. The Lords were unwilling to give up. They still had many troops they could use.

Seven Shackles felt distressed, but he couldn’t show it in front of the others. He was the leader!

“Gather the army and prepare to attack the territory!” His voice was hoarse.

Their mission was to capture Su Wan and the Dark Demon Dragon. As long as they could do that, everything would be okay. The God of Light would make up for the losses.

The Dark Withered Treants had caused him hopeless despair. He decided to wait until the Treants calmed down to launch an attack.

…

The second wave of attack was about to begin. The Night Devil Bees flapped their wings and approached their enemy.

Su Wan turned into her demonic dragon form. She flew high above the clouds to keep an eye on things. She smiled when she saw the horde of enemies.

She had ordered the Red-Eyed Black Dragon and the Night Devil Bees to stay hidden. The Light-Types had some troops that could fly. When the Light-Types finally launched an aerial attack, Su Wan would release the Night Devil Bees on them.

Xu Yuan stayed back in the Dark Castle and watched everything. There was no need for him to go out. The battle would end as soon as it started. The territory had fortifications in place.

Su Wan looked at the Dragon Fruits hanging on the trees. No one could resist the temptation to become stronger.

The Dragon Fruits offered a chance to strengthen the troops. The fruits were also bait for the troops to fall into Su Wan’s trap!
