Chapter 498 Just in Case
Muchun and the other tree people of the Shenmu Tree Clan nodded with tears in their eyes. There was no room for opposition at all to the decision made by the old patriarch.
The old patriarch nodded with satisfaction and turned to walk into the residence.
However, before they could take a few steps, the orcs' screams of surprise drew the attention of the sacred tree people.
"What happened?"
The orcs around were still making earth-shaking screams, pointing towards the center of the ice vine as if they were shouting something.
The old patriarch and the members of the Shenmu Tree People tribe looked in the direction of the orc's finger, and after a long time they finally saw some vague shadows among the dense ice vines.
The Treemen's vision is not as developed as that of the Orcs, so at such a long distance they can only see a blurry shadow.
The old chief patted the orc beside him who was blushing with fear and exclaimed: "What happened? Why are you so excited? What is that blurry thing?"
The beastmen screamed, "That's not a thing. It's the witch doctor and beastmen from the Watson tribe who came back after saving Monte and several beastmen from the Monte tribe. Moreover, the ice vines that just swept Monte away are now acting like they just encountered the beastmen from the Watson tribe and are not attacking them anymore."
Not long after the beastman finished speaking, Ji Nuan and the other beasts had already left the range of the ice vines and came outside the base.
Seeing Meng Zhuo with a tired face and red eyes, Meng Tai rushed over and gave his father a big hug: "Father, we are still alive."
Meng Zhuo nodded with a choked voice, and patted Meng Tai's strong back with his palm like a palm leaf fan: "It's good to be alive, it's good to be alive!"
The old chief also came over with his tribesmen and said with a smile, "Witch Doctor Ji Nuan, I, an old man, was prepared to risk my life to go in and save you, but I never thought that you would be so amazing!"
Ji Nuan smiled and said, "It's nothing. I just happened to have some medicinal powder that can restrain the ice vine. Well, now that it's over, we'll go back first. Let's all go home early."
The old patriarch called Ji Nuan and asked, "Doctor Ji Nuan, is there any way to drive away this ice vine?"
Ji Nuan shook her head: "The old patriarch really thinks highly of me. I can only prevent these ice vines from attacking us. How can I have the ability to command these ice vines?"
The old patriarch sighed: "This is really difficult to deal with."
Ji Nuan was curious: "The Shenmu Tree People have lived in this Beast God Mountain for so many years. I don't see any ice vines in your tribe's settlement. Don't you have some way to prevent it?"
The old patriarch smiled bitterly and said, "What can we do? In fact, once the ice vine takes root in a certain place, it will not expand outward. Unless there are any accidents, it will only grow in that area. Now that it has been led here, I am afraid that the vine will sprinkle countless ice vine spores wherever it passes."
Only then did Ji Nuan realize that the seemingly powerful and proud Shenmu Tree People were not having an easy time either, facing threats from dangerous creatures at any time.
She turned around and took a few ice vine segments from the tribesmen: "This is the part of the ice vine after it died. I carry these ice vine segments with me so that the ice vines will not attack us.
I think this ice vine is really dangerous, you'd better tell your tribesmen to carry this ice vine with them at all times, just in case."
I don't know what happened these days. My cervical spine was very uncomfortable, sore and stiff. I applied hot compress for a while and fell asleep.
Yes, I am here to explain why I procrastinate. I will continue writing, so please don't hit me.
It’s still the same, I’ll correct the typos later.
