Chapter 185 Methods of Conquering the Forest

"Hint: Cursed"

"Your view is obstructed"

"You have been weakened, your attributes have dropped by 40%."

"You have been inflicted with a state of confusion, and your damage is reduced by 40%."

"You have been poisoned, causing continuous damage to you."

"You have been subjected to..."

As soon as you enter the range of the red powder cage, a string of curse prompts pop up.

A full 40 percent.

Chiyou's current level is 71.

The extent to which the curse is effective is closely related to the levels of both parties.

If those who are only level 40 or 50 come in, I'm afraid 50% of them won't be able to stop us.

Based on this alone, Chiyou was already clear that this forest was definitely not a powerful enemy that people could defeat at this stage.

"Ultimate calmness has taken effect, reducing the curse by 50%."

Another reminder, Chiyou suddenly felt lighter, although he was still in the cursed state, it was much better than before.

blow!

The sound of breaking air came from the side. Chiyou leaned back slightly to avoid the vines that were carrying the sonic boom. Before he could stand up straight, he suddenly felt an impact from behind.

Chiyou lightly jumped into the air, and several vines swept below him. Chiyou turned over and landed on the ground, turning into a shadow that flashed across the street.

In an instant, the entire street became violent. Countless vines and branches emerged from the ground, shaking off the mud and sand on their bodies, and with the sound of sonic booms, they rumbled and lashed at the invaders who dared to step in.

In front of Chiyou, hundreds of thick vines were woven into a large net, blocking the way forward from all directions.

Chi You tightly gripped the blade, and a frost shock erupted. The speed of the vines suddenly slowed down, and then several ice crystals bloomed from the vines, and the vine net broke into pieces. Chi You's wings vibrated, and he quickly rushed to the core of the vine forest.

The closer to the core, the stronger the vines' blockade.

When there were only a few dozen meters left to the core, the interception strength was so strong that even Chiyou felt a little strenuous.

When they reached the tumorous part in the middle, the vines went completely crazy.

In addition, the tumor was too hard. Even when Chiyou chopped it off with his sword in the enhanced state, it only left a scar two meters deep and several meters long. It was not fatal at all. The scar of the tumor healed itself in a few seconds.

Something is wrong.

This boss is a bit too strong.

One-on-one situation.

Humans of the same level are of course much weaker than mutant bosses of the same level.

But Chiyou has two divine powers, plus the Ice Disaster Suit, which is enough to kill mutant bosses below level 90.

The strength of this forest is above level 100?

Chiyou, who dodged the vines, couldn't help but frown.

If Li Shouyun and his team were really allowed to conquer the forest at level 100, even though Li Shouyun's progress in becoming stronger was much faster than in his previous life, he would not have to consider conquering the forest within half a year.

If we take the curse into consideration, the crusade time will have to be extended by at least another half a year.

So the function of this forest is the second one originally speculated?

While providing key equipment and props, forcing Li Shouyun to leave the city, triggering other plots, and finally joining forces with others to return to conquer the forest?

Or does it mean that clearing the forest requires specific skills?

A sound of breaking air was heard, and Chi You dodged it easily without even looking, and fell into thought while surrounded by vines.

"If you need a strategy, do you need a special item or a specific way to defeat it?"

Chiyou dodged the thunder and rushed to a higher altitude to observe the vine forest more comprehensively.

Soon, Chiyou noticed something unusual.

The energy captured by the vines from the zombies does not go directly to the tumor in the center, but is concentrated on eight slightly thicker vines and then transported by these eight vines.

Rivers flow into rivers, and rivers flow into the sea.

If we cut off the river that serves as a crossing point, can we dry up the ocean?

Of course, this is just an analogy.

But if the vines that transmit energy are cut off and the tumor cannot obtain energy, will the tumor's defense and self-healing ability decrease?

Chiyou rushed towards the nearest vines and landed directly near one of them.

These eight vines are wrapped in layer upon layer of ordinary vines.

Chiyou landed on the ground, and countless vines shot out. From the gap that was opened, a large number of monsters hatched from the tumorous blood pool gushed out.

Chiyou threw a probe and found some mutated zombies with an average level of around level 60.

Its attributes are slightly higher than those of the zombies on the street, and it comes with three skills.

But it's just a special monster at most, not a big deal. The impact spread by the boots alone is enough to freeze them in place.

"rapidly"

"Swift"

"Wind Protection"

"Quick"

"Tough"

"Strong Attack"

"Agility Improvement"

Chiyou changed several states, and his agility and speed increased dramatically. He approached the thick vines like a storm, and in an instant, countless vine fragments were flying in the sky.

As Chiyou approached, the vine forest suddenly became violent, even more violent than when he first approached the tumor.

Faintly, the whole city was shaking.

It is here!

The forest's reaction was enough for Chiyou to determine the importance of these vines.

Although the tumor is the core, it is not easily destroyed, but if there is no energy supply, the forest will lose its roots.

Vines came from all directions, and each vine had sharp barbs dripping with dark purple venom.

Chiyou still rushed forward unmoved. There were more and more vines behind him. A few vines that suddenly emerged from the ground were about to touch Chiyou's skin exposed outside the armor.

Chiyou suddenly stopped and thrust his Miao Dao into the ground with his backhand.

"Ice disaster"

A series of tiny sounds were heard, the sound of freezing.

It seemed as if the entire space was frozen by white frost, which exploded with Chiyou as the center.

Triple all attribute damage, plus triple critical strike.

Over three million points of damage exploded at this moment.

The extremely low temperature white frost suddenly expanded, covering the ground with a thick layer of frost, and everything in the world was dyed white.

Chiyou's whole body was also dyed white, but he didn't feel the cold at all. His 100% frost resistance prevented him from suffering any harm from this move that didn't distinguish between friend and foe.

Looking at the vines frozen in mid-air, Chiyou reached out and flicked the vines.

“Crack.”

A crack appeared on the vine, followed by intensive shattering sounds. In the twenty-meter space centered on Chiyou, all the vines turned into flying ice crystal fragments, including the thick vine that transmitted energy.

The vines twenty meters away suddenly stopped in mid-air, and then shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, just like a deflated balloon. In a short while, all the vines in the nearby area disappeared.

Chi You slowly drew out his Miao Dao, looked at the tumor in the distance whose light had become slightly dim, then flapped his wings and rushed forward again.

Chiyou deftly moved around the vines and cut into the tumor with one knife.
