"These big trees..." After Mei's reminder, Shen Fan also noticed some abnormalities.
Although this small secret realm is covered by an entire forest, except for the large trees tens of meters high, there are no other animals and plants. There are only treasure chests and black earth under the giant trees.
The weirdest thing is that the giant trees in the entire forest are all the same height and almost the same size!
"What did you find?!" Shen Fan signaled everyone not to descend into the forest for the time being, and looked at Mei and asked.
"There are some. Among the ten generals under the Demon Shark Pirate King, there is one general who was a tree demon during his lifetime. He is called the Demon God General, and he is also a half-step supreme king-level existence... ..”
The king of the demon god named King Mao. He has the incredible ability to separate a part of his body into seeds and turn it into a clone, which is a tree. After the death of the main body, he can also be resurrected through the clone, and his strength There is almost no big loss.
According to records, the Demon God General had his own clones on all the islands in the treasure-hunting sea area. Almost no one could really kill him. He was known as an immortal existence and was the most difficult general to deal with under the Demon Shark Pirate King. one!
"These trees may be the clones of the demon god general." Mei expressed her guess.
"You mean that Demon God General is still alive and right here?!" Shen Fan asked with a frown.
"It may or may not be the case. After all, the time when the Demon Shark Pirate King ruled has been nearly 30,000 years ago, and the Demon God General has survived for a long time before, even earlier than the Demon Shark Pirate King." The life that exists." Mei said.
"This is not good news." Shen Fan sighed.
It is very possible that the demon god will be a tree demon in his true form, and with his ability to regenerate his clones, he can survive for tens of thousands of years. After all, the average tree in the divine wasteland can have a life of hundreds or thousands of years. This is a lot. No living thing can compare.
"But we're already here, no matter what, we have to take a look!" Shen Fan said after being silent for a while.
"I don't care. It's best if you can take me to the real treasure trove of the Demon Shark Pirate King and help me find what I want." Mei Tan said.
"You have to help." Shen Fan glanced at Mei Hou and said, regardless of whether she wanted to or not, Shen Fan took the lead in descending into the forest.
The result was just as Mei had guessed. When Shen Fan and the others approached the forest, the giant trees in the forest seemed to be awakened instantly. The big trees were shaking, and countless branches were reaching out towards Shen Fan and the others.
The branches were very sharp, like spears, and very powerful. They were not weaker than the attacks of powerful men at the feudal level, and there were so many of them. This caused Shen Fan and the others to be directly surrounded by the branches and accept countless attacks.
Once the branch hits the target, it will grow countless roots in the player's body, and then absorb the player's life until death. This has already killed someone among Shen Fan and his two hundred players!
"Concentrate, the weakest defense is in the middle!" Shen Fan shouted.
"Mei, help defend yourself!" Shen Fan shouted to Mei again.
"I know." Mei replied calmly.
The war entered its most intense phase right from the beginning. The Xuanyin Ming Jiao exploded with kingly pressure, attracting attacks from most of the big trees. Shen Fan, Zhao Qingyan and other powerful feudal lords launched attacks directly at the main bodies of those big trees. Want to reduce the number of big trees in the shortest possible time.
However, after they killed the main bodies of many big trees, they discovered the strange thing about these big trees. After the main bodies were smashed, their fragments could quickly regenerate on the black ground and grow into large trees again. Although the trees are not as tall as the previous ones and their strength has also dropped a lot, their number has also increased!
"I'll go! Is this unkillable?! The more you kill, the more you kill!" Shen Fan complained.
"It's not about being immortal. All the main bodies need to be killed without leaving any fragments. Moreover, the strength of these reborn trees has become weaker, and their rebirth ability is not as good as before." Mei said at this time.
"We can only kill slowly!"
This was a long and fierce battle. Although they did not encounter a king-level tree demon, these tree demons that were comparable to the feudal level were enough to make Shen Fan and the others vomit blood. In an entire forest, the number of these big trees But there are as many as hundreds of thousands.
In the fierce battle, time passed little by little, and it was already the morning of September 17th. There was only a little more than a day left before the treasure hunting area was closed.
Outside the Sea of Undead, the number of players gathered has also increased several times in the past ten hours. They are all attracted by the treasure of the Demon Shark Pirate King. There are players from various countries and regions, with millions of them. many.
The same goes for pirates. The main forces of the six pirate nations have arrived. A huge fleet is parked outside the Sea of the Dead. The number of king-level pirates that appeared has reached nine, five of which are from the Pagoda and the Demon Temple. , the rest belong to other pirate nations.
In addition, there are several king-level highly intelligent ferocious beasts, which are existences like the Black-Winged Snake King of the Deep Sea. However, they did not reveal themselves on their own initiative and were only discovered by chance.
Players, pirates, and mysterious monsters are all thinking of various ways to enter the sea of the dead, especially the player army. Only the player army does not have a king.
However, players have also tested that defense props of legendary level and above can resist the erosion of the power of death in the sea of death. Of course, if you want to move forward safely in the sea of death, the premise is that no undead actively attacks you.
"This is the first batch of us who have entered the Sea of the Dead!?" Caesar asked the people next to him.
Among the most powerful units among the players, there is an army of more than 200,000 players led by the North American Temple.
"This is the sixth batch. We can now confirm that the direction to the northeast of us is correct. Several pirate teams have been found heading in that direction." A mage wearing a demigod-level suit replied.
"Have other players made any progress?!" Caesar asked again.
"The team in China has also found its direction, its speed is no slower than ours, and they are ready to send out the main force." The mage said again.
"If the direction is confirmed, then it's almost time for us to take action. It's best to keep up with the pirates." Caesar said.
"Understood, I will make arrangements now..."
In the Sea of the Dead, there are six or seven kings searching for the entrance point to the treasure of the Demon Shark Pirate King. In addition, there are more than a dozen exploratory teams composed of powerful lords, all of whom rely on god-level defense items to protect themselves in the Sea of the Dead. Moving forward.
At this time, someone did find the entrance point to the Demon Shark Pirate King's treasure, which is the crack on the island, and there are quite a few pirates gathered there now.
