In the depths of the lush forest in the North Rocks, an ancient giant tree was slowly twisting its body. The branches on its body suddenly danced like spiritual snakes.
"Cha Na is dead? The new force of the Mansion of the Dead? Is the news reliable? "a crack appeared on the ancient tree and a deep voice came from inside.
"Lord Rock Ghost King, I've investigated and the news is true. Liuli District has also been occupied by these new forces!" the Iron Zombie Commander below replied.
"When we were discussing the division of the territory, we chose to hand over Liuli District to him. I knew that he would be destroyed because of this. However, I didn't expect that he would not be defeated by the Sea King, but by the foreign forces.
What a coward! "the Rock Ghost King said as he shook his body. The ground suddenly began to shake and the soil under his body was lifted up.
"Lord Rock Ghost King, should we start a war with the Mansion of the Dead? These outsiders are of unknown origin and are a great threat!" the Iron Zombie Commander asked subconsciously.
"No, as you said, these forces are of unknown origin. It's better not to start a war. Don't let other forces reap the benefits."
"Then … what if they come to attack?"
Upon hearing that, the Rock Ghost King burst into laughter. His deafening laughter shook the surrounding trees. He then looked at the Iron Zombie Commander.
"I'm not Cha Na. In this Land of Beiqi, except for that old corpse in the Burial Ground, who has the confidence to fight against my Tree Demon Army in my territory?"
As he spoke, the Rock Ghost King seemed to have thought of something and looked at the Iron Zombie Commander again.
"By the way, what's the situation with the Wood Spirit Clan?"
The Iron Zombie Commander was stunned for a moment and then replied, "They are stubborn and still refuse to submit to Lord Rock Ghost King."
"My patience has run out. I, the Rock Ghost King, have given the Wood Spirit Clan a lot of face. However, since they don't want it, I shall exterminate their clan!"
As the Rock Ghost King spoke, the trees in the entire forest began to twist and wave. Looking from above, it looked like a group of demons were dancing.
…
Before the New Year's event started, the players still chose to level up and fight monsters. After all, there were only a few players who had enough soul coins to build their own Specter Ship.
At this moment, several hundred players had gathered at the entrance of the Ghost Mountains. These players wore grim expressions as they looked at the several dozen figures before them.
The dozens of figures that were surrounded all had human appearances and were very handsome. It could be said that they completely met the standards of human beauty.
However, the players knew that they were not players from their own faction because they all had light green long hair and dark green eyes. They were obviously outsiders!
[Wood Spirit Race]: A humanoid race that has mastered the Way of the Wood Spirits. Adult Wood Spirits have special abilities such as growth, healing, and protection.
"Wood Spirit Clan? Boss, should we kill them? "asked a man with a staff in his hand.
The man who was called the boss didn't reply. Instead, he looked at the members of the Wood Spirit Clan who were surrounded.
"Hey, what are you doing in the Mansion of the Dead? Don't you know that this is the territory of the Beiqi Army?"
The members of the Wood Spirit Clan, who had been resolute and determined to resist to the death, were stunned when they heard this.
A handsome man from the Wood Spirit Clan walked out from the team with a longbow on his back. He glanced at the crowd and then looked at the leader of the Demolition Guild, Liu Chai.
"You said that you are the Beiqi Army?"
"Nonsense, if I'm not the Beiqi Army, who else could it be?" Liu Chai glared at him.
"As far as I know, the Beiqi Army of the Lord King of Beiqi has been shattered. Why does the Beiqi Army still exist?" The man from the Wood Spirit Clan looked very surprised.
"There are millions of descendants of Beiqi. How can the Beiqi Army fall?"
Liu Chai glared at him again, "Tell me, where are you from? What are you doing here? If it weren't for your human form, my brothers and I would have already killed you!"
Hearing that Liu Chai was about to attack, the man panicked a little, "We are the Wood Spirit Clan, a medical clan appointed by the King of Beiqi."
"Appointed by the King of Beiqi?" Liu Chai was a little confused.
Then, the man from the Wood Spirit Clan told them about how his clan was besieged in the North Rocks after the death of the King of Beiqi. They refused to submit to the Rock Ghost King's summon and were eventually exterminated. Only a few dozen of them managed to escape.
Hearing the description of the man from the Wood Spirit Clan, the players on the scene were stunned.
"So, they are our allies?"
"Could it be that the Rock Ghost King sent them to investigate us?"
"I think it's better to be cautious and kill them!"
"I don't know if they are trustworthy. Let's go and ask the NPCs, they should know."
The players of the Demolition Guild started discussing among themselves.
"Stop arguing. Since you say that you are our allies, I don't believe you. How about this, you come with me and ask the butler of the Mansion of the Dead. If he says that you are, then you can stay in the Mansion of the Dead. If not, then hehe …"
"The butler of the Mansion of the Dead?" the man from the Wood Spirit Clan was stunned again.
After being in Beiqi for so many years, they had never seen the force in front of them. Moreover, since when did the Mansion of the Dead have a butler?
However, the situation was pressing. The man from the Wood Spirit Clan looked at the remaining clansmen with a hint of sadness in his eyes and chose to compromise.
Therefore, the weapons of the dozens of clansmen from the Wood Spirit Clan were confiscated by the Demolition Guild and escorted to the center of the Mansion of the Dead.
Lu Wu had naturally noticed this and asked Bei Li about it.
However, Bei Li was also very surprised by the existence of the Wood Spirit Clan. In her opinion, the forces that were loyal to the King of Beiqi should have been destroyed by the rebel army. She did not expect the Wood Spirit Clan to still exist.
"I think I know the reason. It must be the uniqueness of the Wood Spirit Clan!" Bei Li raised her head and said after thinking for a moment.
"Uniqueness?"
"Yes, the Wood Spirit Clan is different from other combat clans. They are a supportive clan with weak combat power but they have healing and restoration abilities. Obviously, the Rock Ghost King took this clan away and wanted to take them in for his own use to improve the combat power of his forces. However, he obviously did not succeed!"
After Lu Wu knew that the Wood Spirit Clan was indeed loyal, he gave a new order to the butler in advance before the arrival of the Demolition Guild and the others.
When the Demolition Guild members arrived and saw the butler, the butler suddenly looked at the people of the Wood Spirit Clan who were surrounded in the middle.
"You … you are not dead!"
The people of the Wood Spirit Clan, "???"
"You are really blessed by the King of Beiqi. I didn't expect you to escape the siege of the rebel army and survive," the butler said with tears in his eyes.
The members of the Wood Spirit Clan, "???"
At this moment, they were dumbfounded. They had no idea who this emotional old man in front of them was. He seems to be very familiar with us!
