Just as the devil's hand was gathering strength and was about to break Gu Shi's defense, Gu Shi suddenly opened his eyes.
After waking up, before Gu Shi could see clearly what was happening, the strong smell that kept rushing into his nose reminded him that the enemy was right behind him.
Before his brain could send any instructions, Gu Shi's body moved subconsciously. He flashed to the side and quickly avoided the demon's attacking palm.
The devil was a little surprised. He didn't expect that this human who had been standing there like a puppet could dodge so flexibly and in time.
The next second, before it could retract its outstretched hand, the ground began to shake slightly, and there was a rumbling sound, as if some large animal was drilling a hole underground.
This was followed by the sound of branches and leaves rubbing against each other.
That was a close call. It was almost there just now.
Gu Shi covered his chest and staggered to his feet. He looked back and saw that the ancient tree not far away was growing rapidly at an astonishing speed.
The trunk of the ancient tree continued to grow thicker as if under a spell, and the ground near the roots of the tree was shaking slightly. Invisible to the naked eye, the roots of the ancient tree were continuously extending downwards.
The branches stretched out wildly, as if trying to take up the entire sky. Tender green leaves sprouted like mushrooms after rain, and in the blink of an eye, the entire tree was lush and green.
Gu Shi could even hear the creaking sound of the growing trees. This sound, which should have been very small, sounded particularly loud to him.
The demon also noticed the changes in the tree in front of him.
It did not forget the purpose of its trip. Seeing that the treasure that it thought was in its pocket had undergone a change, it immediately put aside the idea of ​​continuing to cause trouble for Gu Shi and reached out to touch the ancient tree.
But it didn't go as planned.
Bang--
A dazzling light flashed, and the demon was thrown out heavily. Most of his arm was gone, leaving only a small stump hanging on his shoulder, and blood gushed out of the wound.
Gu Shi saw it clearly. Just when the demon stretched out its hand, the specks of fluorescent light that had been quietly surrounding the ancient tree instantly gathered together and then burst out with powerful energy towards the demon.
Seeing this scene, Gu Shi suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and his originally tense nerves relaxed a little.
He unconsciously said out loud what he was thinking, "Great, it works, huh, great..."
Gu Mu does have the ability to expel demons, and their efforts have not been in vain.
This counterattack was like turning on a switch, and the light spots that were originally only flying around the ancient tree suddenly spread out.
These spots of light look beautiful and harmless, like fireflies dancing in the night sky, flickering and floating high and low, giving this chaotic land a dreamy hue.
To Gu Shi and the others, this was indeed a rare and beautiful sight, but to the demons and monsters, it was a pure horror movie.
These light spots will not cause any harm to humans, but they are very effective against outsiders.
The first to suffer were the minions of the demon just now.
They never thought that their leader would be knocked away by a tree. They were all stunned for a few seconds by this scene. Before they could react, those light spots had already flown in front of them.
What followed was a series of flashes and explosions. Some who were lucky were blown away and still had the strength to escape, while those who were unlucky died on the spot.
The first demon leader who was blown away received "special care" from the light spots, and the light spots gathered around him were extremely dense.
These light spots are not affected by its flames, and its strongest means of attack are immune. The demon leader is no longer as at ease as before.
It was eager to escape, but found that it had no way to deal with them.
These light spots rushed towards it in groups, and no matter how strong its recovery ability was, its body soon became bumpy.
Since I can't get it, I might as well destroy it!
After feeling the threat, the demon leader decisively attacked the ancient tree, and a huge ball of black flame shot out like a cannonball.
But it couldn't even get close to the ancient tree. When the black flame was about two meters away from the ancient tree, it was bounced back by an invisible wall.
The demon leader looked at the ancient tree that was still growing with great reluctance, and then fled as fast as he could. The light spots followed behind him, looking as if he was wearing a long silver-white veil.
Gu Shi didn't have the extra energy to pay attention to what was happening here. After confirming that the enemies could no longer cause any trouble, he immediately began to look for the other ten people.
Gu Shi looked around and soon saw a person lying on the ground.
Gu Shi ran over in two or three steps and carefully turned the face-down body over. It was a young man he didn't know.
The young man's eyes were tightly closed, and although he was unconscious, a look of pain remained on his face. Gu Shi noticed that his left leg was bent in a very unnatural position, and there were many large wounds on his torso.
Fortunately, his chest was still rising and falling slightly, proving that he was still alive.
Gu Shi held the young man's head against him, then stretched out one hand to open his jaws, and with the other hand held a bottle of potion close to his mouth, pouring the potion inside into his mouth.
However, the effect was not very good. The unconscious young man had no consciousness to swallow, and a large part of the potion that Gu Shi fed into his mouth flowed down the corners of his lips onto the ground.
After all, Gu Shi was not a professional medical worker, nor had he studied the relevant knowledge. He had no idea what posture he should use to make the young man drink the medicine.
Moreover, given his current condition, Gu Shi didn't dare to make any drastic movements, otherwise it might cause secondary damage to him.
Just when Gu Shi was distressed, a hoarse voice sounded.
"Ahem, let me do it, ahem, just lay him flat on the ground."
Gu Shi turned his head and saw a trembling figure crawling up from the ground not far away. She supported her body with a staff and moved towards them little by little.
He is the only priest in the team.
Gu Shi put the person down quickly and lightly, then quickly stood up and walked over to support her.
The pastor leaned against Gu Shi and whispered, "Thank you."
Due to her lack of combat power, she has the most defensive items on her, so she can still barely stay awake, but her condition is very poor.
