The forest could no longer be called a forest.
The land turned into a mire spat out dark red water with every step, and the decaying trees twisted as if they were still alive. The stench of rot and toxic mist drifted slowly on the wind and spread out.
Gais gripped the spear tighter and looked around.
Be careful
Nod.
"This forest isn’t dead… It’s living and moving while being contaminated."
At that moment.
The mud churned loudly as the Lord of Decaying Sap appeared. The bark was cracked, and black sap oozed from every crack.
Soon after, the bodies of the reanimated corpses crawled back with their throats turned upside down, while the rotting herd of deer charged forward, spewing worms from within their bodies.
In the damp swamp, the giant black-soaked moss rose, and beneath my feet, the shadowy mass of the cesspool spread upward like black mud.
From afar, the rotten rib fortress shot its bone spear, and the predatory vine thicket stretched its tentacles into dozens of branches, trying to bind the two.
From the sky, corrupt wing trackers plunged down, and from the earth, the black water vein parasites gnawed away at the magic.
The moment the corrupted corrupt spirit distortion emitted darkness, the ground split open again as if exploding.
A deep-set, hooked burr hole worm leapt up chewing at the rock, and the acidic-abdomen centipede twisted its body and splattered acidic mucus.
The vein-bursting caterpillars scattered exploding crystal shards, and the Lord of the Vampiric Moth spread its black wings, covering the sky.
Under the massive roots, root-parasitic tentacles sprouted, and the Daan earwigs muddled their vision with dozens of eyes.
From the trees, the poison needle fallers rained down their stingers like rain, and the giant corrupt Ould King advanced, commanding countless insects.
Next, a swarm of dark predatory larvae surged in like a black wave, and finally, a tardigrade worm tore through the ground as it revealed itself.
“There’s no end.”
The moment Gais lowered the tip of his spear, lightning enveloped his body.
"Thunder brakes."
Dozens of lightning bolts split through the forest and fell.
Bang!!
The lightning pierced both the Corrupted Spirit and the Black Water Moss Giant at the same time, and in succession, the electric shocks bounced up in a chain reaction toward the surrounding monsters.
Gais swung his hand.
The enormous rotating blades spun like a storm and flew off, shattering the predatory vines and the decayed fawn herd into pieces.
Then the sky grew dark.
"Heavy rain."
A heavy downpour poured down, and the streams became a channel for lightning, electrifying the entire forest.
While the electrocuted monsters twisted their bodies and collapsed, a red spear was forged from Gaisuga’s hand.
"Blood Spear."
Dozens of red spears were fired in a straight line, piercing through the deep iron-walled burrowing worm and the decaying giant burrower one after another.
I was not left behind.
Dozens of crystal crystals floated into the air and scattered in all directions.
The sharp crystal windows ruptured the vein-bursting caterpillar and the stinger fall-worm one after another, causing an explosion.
Gaisga twisted his wrist again.
Dark boomerangs shaped like black crescent moons flew in circles.
The boomerang cut down the enemies and then returned to his hand, and even in its return trajectory, it deeply severed the torso of the corrupt sapling lord.
Finally, he raised the spear high.
The black magic condensed, and dozens of dark scythes appeared in midair.
The sickles spun like a storm and swept across the battlefield.
Screeeech!!
The Devouring Vine was severed, the Rotting Spirit turned into black mist and scattered, and the giant body of the Periplous Wasp was also split into pieces and collapsed into the earth.
As the rain and lightning subsided, the forest fell silent once more.
Taking a deep breath, I looked around.
“…It doesn’t seem over."
Even Gais did not lower the tip of the spear.
"Yes. Somewhere deep in this forest, something even stronger is still waiting for us
