Chapter 75 - 75: Testing the Demonic Tree! An Angry Man! (2)
However, this gave the Descenders a small hint. They could exchange what they already had with each other and take what they needed.
In the Southern Forest, Wang Chen brought the four of them to the vicinity of the Demonic Tree and sized up this terrifying Overlord creature from afar. “Brother Wang, why are you targeting this guy?” Qi Yi was a little puzzled. In his opinion, if it weren’t for the special mission, it would be a waste to deal with such a high-level monster.
“I have my own plans.” Wang Chen licked his dry lips and said, “You guys stay away. I’ll go over.”
In the last confrontation, he had a rough idea of the Demonic Tree’s attack range.
With the tree trunk as the center, the area within a kilometer or so was that fellow’s domain. This time, he planned to test how strong the Demonic Tree was.
He arrived outside the attack range of the Demonic Tree.
“Angel, go!”
With a low shout, the angel hovering behind him immediately charged toward the giant tree.
The roar immediately woke up the Demonic Tree. A hideous face emerged from the tree, revealing a pair of scarlet eyes.
Whoosh!
Thick vines flew out from the dense tree canopy and shot toward the Throne Angel.
However, relying on its high Agility, the Throne Angel charged left and right, easily dodging the attacks of the vines, and kept approaching the main body of the Demonic Tree.
“Very good. We can do the same. At least, we can escape.” Wang Chen observed silently.
However, as the angel continued to approach, it gradually became difficult to dodge the attacks.
800 meters, 700 meters…
The angel continued to approach.
Finally, when they were about a hundred meters away…
Whoosh!
A tree vine slammed into one of the Throne Angel’s wheels and wrapped itself tightly around the Throne Angel’s body like a sucker. It caused the momentum of their charge to stagnate.
Immediately after, the other vines also swept over and instantly wrapped around the angel, easily dragging it toward the tree canopy.
“It seems that it will be very dangerous for me to get within two hundred meters,” Wang Chen concluded.
The angel’s agility attribute was much higher than his.
If he wanted to be completely safe, 2,000 meters was the limit.
“Next is the defense ability test.”
Wang Chen stared at the Demonic Tree.
550 Stamina Points was almost twice as much as his. Coupled with such a huge body, the Demonic Tree’s defense must be very terrifying.
Soon, the angel was pulled close.
Hong!
The eyes on the angel’s body suddenly burst with a dazzling light.
Eye of Judgment!
180 damage!
This was the most powerful skill that Wang Chen currently possessed. Even the Dragon Subduing Palm could not compare to it. The vines that were wrapped around the angel’s body melted instantly.
The bright grey light shone on the Demonic Tree’s body, instantly burning the reddish-brown bark black.
“Roar!”
The Demonic Tree let out a roar. The thick tree branch condensed into a ferocious claw and slammed down viciously at the Throne Angel.
rumble!
The body of the Throne Angel was directly blasted apart, scattering all over the ground.
“Devil’s Bash!”
Wang Chen gasped.
Even if he was wearing his Heavy Silver Armor, this slap would probably turn him into a meat paste.
However, his attack was not effective against the Demonic Tree.
Throne Angel’s Defense wasn’t a purely offensive skill. The Eye of Judgment was only an auxiliary attack skill, so its power was only average.
‘Looks like a Rank 2 skill won’t work. I need something stronger,’ Wang Chen thought to himself.
The power of the Thunderbolt was considered decent among Rank 2 skills, but it was still far from comparable to the Eye of Judgment.
After getting the test results, Wang Chen decisively retreated.
After that, Wang Chen and the others spent the entire day hunting in the forest. Although the rewards were average, at least everyone was able to complete their daily missions.
At sunset, they left the forest and rushed to Scenic Town.
Near the Doomsday Roulette, Pei Qingju had a smile on her face as she waited leisurely.
More than 30 people came to her for treatment, and each treatment cost 1,000 Spirit Points. She earned more than 30,000 Spirit Points.
In fact, she earned even more than Zhao Qianhe, who was notorious for charging fees.
However, everyone knew that Pei Qingju was with Wang Chen. Coupled with her special identity as a doctor, no one dared to covet her Spirit Points.
A huge Throne Angel descended from the sky.
Seeing everyone return safely, Pei Qingju was completely relieved.
“Xiao Feng, how was your day?” she smiled and greeted Chen Feng.
“Not bad! What about you, Auntie?” Chen Feng asked with a smile.
“I’m fine too. I’ll treat you guys to a big meal later!” Pei Qingju said to everyone with a smile.
Wang Chen glanced at her interface, and his face twitched unconsciously.
“Medical treatment is indeed profitable!” he could not help but complain in a low voice.
Pei Qingju smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t charge for your treatment. However, it’s best if you don’t get hurt.”
At this moment, some Descenders who were waiting nearby walked over.
“Mr. Wang, 1 heard that you’re buying long-range attack skills that are Rank 2 and above, right?” a skinny man asked. His eyes were filled with anticipation.
“That’s right, but I don’t want those with average power. It’s best if it’s Rank 3” Wang Chen nodded.
The man’s eyes lit up. He took out a scroll and handed it to Wang Chen. “Look at this! Rank 2 Arcane Magic Ball! It’s definitely quite powerful.”
Wang Chen took it and looked at it. He said somewhat disappointedly, “Sorry, this is far from what 1 need.”
The range of this skill was extremely long at more than 200 meters. However, its power was not even comparable to the white lightning.
“I see!” The man took the scroll back in disappointment and turned to leave.
“Take a look at mine. It’s a Rank 2 Skill, Gale Blade!”
“I’m sorry! It doesn’t meet my needs!”
“Rank 2 Skill! Frost Arrow!”
“I’m sorry…”
He looked at five or six skills in a row but could not find any that matched Wang Chen’s requirements. This disappointed him a little.
“Is there anyone else who wants to sell their skills?” he shouted to the people nearby.
In the distance, Zhao Qianhe also saw this.
“Boss, don’t we have a Rank 3 skill?” one of the Descenders whispered. “Do you want to…”
“Wang Chen will become our enemy sooner or later.” Zhao Qianhe shook his head and said, “We can’t strengthen the enemy’s strength for some small benefits. Otherwise, it would be too late for regrets.”
“Boss, you’re really thoughtful.” That person smiled.
On the side of the square, Wang Chen saw that no one responded and was ready to give up.
Most people’s Luck was only around 1. It was impossible for them to obtain high-level skills so easily like him. Not to mention, most Descenders would choose to learn high-level skills themselves.
At this moment, a hoarse voice came from the crowd. “I have a Rank 3 Skill!” Wang Chen looked over.
A young man with a crippled leg and a blind eye squeezed out of the crowd. His breath was very chaotic, and it was obvious that he was injured badly.
“Can 1 take a look?” Wang Chen raised his eyebrows.
This young man’s Strength was average at Level 18. He did not have much hope.
“Of course!” the young man said. He staggered over to Wang Chen, took out a scroll, and handed it to Wang Chen.
[Tarsal Flame Spear (Rank 3)]
Wang Chen received the scroll and was instantly delighted. When dealing with a plant like the Demonic Tree, fire-attribute skills were naturally not bad. The power and range of the Tarsal Flame Spear also met his requirements.
Despite only being at Level 1, it had 120 fire damage and continuous fire damage.
“What do you want?” Wang Chen asked in a low voice.
As long as he obtained this skill, it would not be a problem for him to deal with the Demonic Tree.
“I want you to help me kill a few people!” the young man said fiercely.
“Murder?” Wang Chen raised his eyebrows. He didn’t expect this young man to make such a request.
“Fei Yang, have you really thought it through? Don’t let your anger get to your head,” Wang Chen looked into his eyes and asked calmly.
In this person’s eyes, he saw a burning anger. This was an angry man.
“I’ve thought it through!” Fei Yang nodded firmly. If he didn’t kill those guys, he would never forgive himself. It was for revenge that he was struggling to survive until now.
“Kill who?” Wang Chen asked.
This might not be a good idea.
However, in such an environment, it was difficult for him to care about the lives of people he did not know.
Therefore, he would not be conflicted..
