But Roman's situation was not as optimistic as Brando imagined, and the atmosphere gradually became tense over time. Brando then realized that there must be something hidden in the mind of this future businessman girl, which he didn't know—this kind of secret may be subconscious—the deeper the hidden, the more hurt at this moment.

For a while, there were only two nervous breathing sounds in the air, and the merchant lady herself slept smoothly, but Brando was really afraid that she would just sleep like this and never wake up again.

He couldn't help but looked at the golden magic tree, the connection between dreams and reality was already quite fragile, and the golden magic tree might wake up at any time.

"Freya?"

Freya clenched her fists, too nervous to say a word. Brando said that they only had five minutes, not much time, but Roman still seemed to be immersed in his nightmare. But she knew that this young man could not be blamed, because only she knew this secret in Buche.

She only hated that she hadn't told Brando in advance, but how did she know that this dream was so complicated. Brando didn't say anything because he was afraid of affecting their mood, but he didn't expect to be self-defeating instead.

But the young man did not fall into a blind panic, his mind turned sharply, and he suddenly threw the thorn of clear light in his hand.

"Let her hold it."

"what?"

"This sword has the power to exorcise evil spirits, let her hold it." Brando said verbally, but he knew that he could only rely on an increase in the will power level of the Elf Sword to make the merchant lady turn a good fortune.

Martha is on! He couldn't help but pray in his heart for the omnipresent supreme of the'Voend', hoping that she would be more tolerant to Roman. But perhaps it was the sword that worked, or perhaps Brando's prayer was felt by Martha. It didn't take long for the merchant lady to really wink with a wink.

She rubbed her eyes and looked at the two people. She was shocked and said happily, "Freya, you are here too. I told you that I had a nightmare just now!"

"Ah!" Freya was stunned, and then it seemed to be a cry of surprise from her chest. She didn't listen to what the merchant lady was talking about, but embraced Roman and wept with joy. She thought there was no hope at all, but Brando's method really worked.

"Roman, you idiot!"

"Fu, Freya, what are you talking about! I'm not a fool!" Roman seemed to have received a fatal blow, hurriedly and seriously defended.

On the contrary, Brando calmed down when she watched the merchant lady who was messed up by Freya who was suddenly crying. With the help of the infused faith and the thorn of clear light, no matter how deep the nightmare Roman was, the possibility of awakening is very high. He is more worried about how she will be affected by this.

But looking at her dazed look, Brando knew that he was worrying too much.

"Okay, don't cry." He said: "The Golden Devil Tree is about to wake up. If you have anything, save it until after the battle."

The ponytail girl put away her tears and nodded. "What are we going to do, Brando?" she asked.

"We are not the protagonist in this battle, there is a stone Trypanosoma in this valley—"

"what is that?"

"Roman, don't interrupt! Stone Trypanosoma are elemental creatures from the Earth Hub (Earth Elemental Plane). They were born to be the nemesis of the Golden Demon Tree, but the Golden Demon Tree can still rely on itself before this stone Trypanosom reaches adulthood. The huge root system keeps it out of the valley. Of course, it takes 80 to 120 years for the stone trypanosomes to mature, and we can’t wait that long, so we have to help it.”

"Help it?" Freya asked.

Brando took the Elf Sword from Roman’s hand and replied: "The Golden Demon Tree is very weak. Its only means of attack is to pierce the intruder with its roots sticking out of the ground. Therefore, we have to force it to do so. The more root systems it extracts, the fewer the root systems against stone trypanosomes. Over time, trypanosoma stoneworms can enter the valley—"

"But we only have ten minutes, and at most ten minutes later, the first batch of withered beasts will flood into the valley. If we have not succeeded in ten minutes, you must run west without hesitation. The secret road is in a valley. , Very conspicuous."

"How about you?" Roman looked up.

"Leave the rest to the men. This is your demeanor as a lady." Brando saw her smooth forehead and couldn't help but lightly tap with his hand. He looked at Freya again. The girl was pulling her ponytail back with her hands to facilitate the battle afterwards. She noticed his gaze and looked at him and nodded.

Brando was startled, he thought Freya would try to stay again. But he didn't mean that she didn't want to be unwilling to look at her. On the contrary, she had a sense of calmness. It seemed that the other party had gained a little in the dream.

The capable Freya smelled of a future Valkyrie, he couldn't help but smiled with relief, then turned his head and said, "Roman, take your ring."

The merchant lady immediately raised her small hand triumphantly and shook the black and white ring.

"Your task is to listen to the underground movement and tell us immediately if you find anything."

"Okay, Brando."

"Then let's set off, we crossed under the rocky headland and approached the Golden Demon Tree. Looking at the topography there, there should be a fault below that allows the Golden Demon Tree to detect our attempt at the latest." Brando said, taking the lead. Touched it. He first ran to a protruding rock, then turned his head and gestured to Freya and Roman to follow.

Freya grabbed Roman's hand and followed it, the meaning was obvious-don't run around obediently, I'll protect you. She did this so that Brando could have no distractions, and could let go of her hands and feet to attack the golden magic tree as soon as she seized the opportunity.

The three quickly passed under the stone headland mentioned by Brando, his memory was not wrong, and they had not been harassed at all before that. But they had just entered the dividing line, and the merchant lady immediately heard a rumbling voice coming from under her feet.

"Brando, there is a voice below."

Our protagonist was taken aback, and immediately shouted: "Separate, quickly separate."

Freya immediately pushed Roman to one side, and the three of them parted ways, and the ground was lifted by two thick vines with a rumbling. However, the Golden Demon Tree obviously did not expect that its attack would be seen through by a few insects. When its root system protruded from the ground, it was only Brando waiting for it with a prepared sword.

The young man got up from the ground, held up the Elf Sword with both hands and slashed it in the middle of the thick vine of the bucket. The blade went half way deep, and the silver flame suddenly sprayed out from the blade. The purifying fire burned the vines creaking, and the golden magic tree in the middle of the valley almost trembled with pain, making the entire valley humming.

It was calling for reinforcements again, Brando's heart sank, and as expected, time was already very tight. He couldn't help turning his head: Freya made a beautiful side roll to avoid the sweep of the golden magic tree root system, and then slashed on the vine with a sword. Although the sword was only one-third deep, it was beautiful. His hand made him impressed.

This is at least the level of Level 2 Eruin's military swordsmanship. It seems that Freya has gained a lot in her dream.

"Brando, there is another voice!" Roman climbed to the edge of the battlefield alone, then turned his head and shouted.

"How far is it?" Brando shouted subconsciously, but he immediately realized his loss. He subconsciously regarded Roman as the nightingale in the team, but the merchant lady just felt more sensitive after all, not a professional spy in the game.

"One hundred meters, seventy meters." Roman thought for a while.

"So far?" Brando was startled, and with a backhand sword, he attacked his vine and flew. Only half of the root system lost its vitality and fell softly, and the fracture was blackened.

"There are still sixty meters."

Brando hesitated for a moment. Although it was unbelievable, he still decided to trust Roman: "Freya, leave it alone! Did you see the trail, rush out from there."

Freya was just a little startled, and immediately put the sword on her chest, let herself deal with the vine and flew herself away. The feathers of wind around her lit up to form a light net, protecting her and reducing the impact—the ponytail girl just rolled on the ground a few times and got up again, and she had fallen by Roman's side.

"Roman, come with me!" Then she grabbed the merchant's hand and rushed in that direction.

"Huh! Where's Brando?"

"He will follow!"

This girl finally learned to trust her teammates instead of acting alone. Brando couldn't help but relax, he was really afraid that Freya would not be able to mix himself well at this time, but he saw the vine attacking Freya and wanted to catch up, and he didn't even want to go along with a sword. The previous cut cut it into two sections.

After clearing the enemy, he didn't dare to stay any longer, the underground voice could even be heard clearly, which showed that Roman's judgment was correct. But he couldn't help being a little shocked, how did the somewhat reckless girl hear the sound of seventy meters underground

He estimated that at least there are 5 energy levels in perception to have this level.

This thought flashed through Brando's mind. He immediately turned around and ran. It was not difficult to catch up with Freya and Roman with his dexterity, but the road of the three of them was blocked by the root system of the golden magic tree. For the third time, all three of them heard a loud noise coming from the southeast of the valley, and then all the roots of the trees that were attacking them at the time all retracted.

Now even if Brando didn't remind him, Freya and Roman knew that this must be the stone trypanosoma entering the field.

"Are we victorious?" Roman couldn't help but asked with some surprise.

Brando shook his head, and they had to enter the core area around the golden magic tree. In the following time, the golden magic tree will constantly weigh which party is more threatening to it, and then dispatch a huge root system to block one of them. However, this behavior of tearing down the east wall and repairing the west wall will not last long, and they will win at some point.

But the only question is whether they can do all this within the stipulated time.

There is less than five minutes left.
