Above the Seven Towers

Chapter 1186: When the riots

Views:

Laura stared at the big hole in the ceiling, feeling that she had lost all her strength. Fortunately, after the green ball of light flew out, the pressure of divine power in the hall basically disappeared. She took a few breaths to recover her strength, then stood up with the help of the pillar and walked to the bottom of the big hole.

The light from the hole turned green, and she realized that the ball of light was not far away. But outside was her capital, so what did the God of Nature mean by cleaning up the world

At this moment, a muffled sound came from the air, like a huge thunderbolt struck nearby, followed by many strange noises from outside, as if something was waking up, or something was making a commotion. Then, for some reason, the ground beneath her feet began to shake violently, and she vaguely heard someone screaming outside.

Could it be that the disaster that the god of nature wants to bring to the continent is an earthquake

Laura saw that the hall was shaking too violently, with gravel and dust falling from above. If she didn't get out, she might be buried under the collapsed building at any time. She hurriedly pressed the short-distance teleportation ring on her hand, locked a trace of consciousness in the sky 200 meters above, and then teleported out of the hall with the flashing light.

Since she used this ring to save her life, it was definitely not that simple. After the teleportation, the ring automatically cast flying and shield spells on her.

Laura was not a magician, and the change of space made her a little uncomfortable. When she got used to the dizziness after the teleportation, an unimaginable scene appeared before her eyes.

The green ball of light floated in the air, emitting ripples that extended along the ground to the horizon.

All the trees that were swept by the waves underwent strange changes. Some trees lost all their leaves and died, but others began to grow wildly, becoming taller and thicker. It seemed that among every ten or so trees, the tallest and strongest one would absorb the energy of the other trees and then begin to change. The trunks of these trees began to fork, the branches began to bend, and the roots and branches grew limbs, breaking free from the ground and turning into tree people.

The smallest of these tree men is as tall as a three-story building, with extremely strong limbs. After leaving the ground, they begin to indiscriminately attack the people or houses around them.

Laura knew about tree people, that was only seen in books about elves. In the past, elves liked to animate trees and turn them into powerful warriors and workers. However, elves only use this magic in a small area. And now, within and outside the city, Laura can see the rioting tree people everywhere.

The mansions in the noble district had the most trees in the city. A tree man rose from the courtyard of a noble family, and his height was higher than that mansion itself. Its branches twisted together to form two huge fists, and it raised a fist and hit the noble family's house. It seemed that the body made of trees was not as hard as stone, but the body of the tree man catalyzed by the god of nature contained a trace of divine power, making its body like steel and extremely powerful. The tree man's fist hit the house, and a wall and a roof of the house collapsed. The house was full of panicked people running around. The tree man seemed to have a certain consciousness. He took steps and punched one after another towards the crowded places. Wherever his huge fist, which was half the size of a room, hit, there was a mess. If he hit a person, he would beat him into a meat paste on the spot.

It's not that no one launched a counterattack. The guards of the noble families, or the noble members who knew martial arts and magic, all launched attacks on the tree people. However, the damage caused by fighting spirit and magic on the tree people was limited, because their bodies had no vital parts, and often even stabbing with a knife or chopping with an axe could not hurt them at all. Only masters above the middle level could really hurt the tree people, cut off their hands and feet, or split their bodies. However, even so, they had to pay a lot of price. Laura saw with her own eyes that a warrior burst out with fighting spirit and chopped his sword into the body of the tree man, but because he failed to pull out his sword in time, he was slapped flat on his body by the tree man.

Laura looked at her palace again and found that there were also seven or eight tree people wreaking havoc in the palace located on the hilltop in the city. He saw a tree man punch through the roof of her bedroom, drag out one of her maids, and throw her down the hillside. The poor maid fell on the top of a noble tower and broke into two pieces. However, there were many guards in the palace after all, and there were also magicians stationed there. Dozens of magicians flew out of the Royal Mage Tower and began to cast magic on the tree people.

The tree people were afraid of fire magic, and soon two of them were set on fire by the wizard, but they fell on two rooms of the palace, and the fire spread, burning a part of the palace.

Although the tree people were mostly rampant in the noble area, the things that appeared in the slums were even more terrifying than the tree people. Under the influence of the green divine light, the cats, dogs, rats and other creatures that were as numerous as cattle hair in the civilian area also underwent terrible mutations. Their bodies began to expand and they gained amazing strength. Cats and dogs became more than half a person's height, and rats were as big as four or five-year-old children. They grew sharp claws and fangs and attacked the surrounding humans everywhere. The civilian area was densely populated and lacked the masters of the noble area. The fight caused by the small animals soon turned into a disaster.

Queen Laura even saw many hairy monsters in the forest farther away, charging towards the city wall. They might have been wild boars, hyenas or wolves, but now they all turned into terrifying killers.

Even in the big river that runs through the royal capital, many monsters evolved from fish began to attack the ships in the river. They grew hands and feet, climbed up the decks from the sides of the ships, and began to frantically attack the sailors on the deck. Some also climbed onto the land from the river banks on both sides and attacked anyone they saw.

Queen Laura stood in the air, not knowing what she should do to hold his capital. She also had a feeling that what was in front of her was not the most terrifying thing, because since she had just escaped from the palace, the ground had been shaking, as if something was about to break out of the ground.

Suddenly, she discovered that the huge rocks that made up the King's Capital Nature Temple seemed to have risen a bit, and the vines on them became thicker and denser, wrapping them tightly in green. Then, a huge rock actually rose up from the ground under the traction of the vines, and the temple building built next to the huge rock collapsed by half when it was slightly touched by it.

The huge rocks were affected by some great power, rising up one by one and stacking together to form a human shape. A rock giant wrapped in vines stood in the center of the capital.
