Chapter 474 Teamwipe Beginning

The instant Town Tree King unleashed the power of the World Tree, all World Tree members on the battlefield were enveloped in a shimmering green light, receiving a halo buff that drastically enhanced their overall combat power, as if they had taken a love potion.

The halo covered the entire army, instantly changing the situation on the battlefield. The World Tree troops, fully buffed, immediately charged forward. Many of the Three Great Civilizations' forces, which had been stalemated, suffered heavy losses in an instant, with casualties skyrocketing.

Many Super-As bore the brunt of the attack, immediately sensing the change. The overall increase in strength of the World Tree powerhouses broke the deadlock in one area after another. Many Super-As who had been in a tug-of-war with their opponents were immediately deprived of the initiative, falling into a disadvantage in the blink of an eye. Many found themselves in dire straits, facing mortal danger.

Golden rays of light frequently shot out, continuously targeting Super-As who were in danger, providing a timely burst of healing energy and allowing many to catch their breath. However, the World Tree powerhouses also responded, using various methods to try to scatter or isolate the incoming life energy, preventing this healing-type esper from healing his companions.

Only Hela had a soul link with Aurora, allowing her to receive Aurora's instant Life Dawn, regardless of spatial distance, like being connected to a hacked healing source. The other Super-As naturally did not have such treatment. Although the healing power was sufficient, they had to be able to receive it.

Although Aurora's ability was extraordinary, her current level was only that of an ordinary Super-A, which was insufficient. She couldn't ignore all kinds of blocking methods. This further tested the micro-management skills of this healer, who not only had to pay attention to the life status of each Super-A, but also had to find ways to avoid various obstacles and successfully heal the target.

Han Xiao monitored the battle situation in each area through the quantum network vision, and the changes in the battlefield were clear to him. Obviously, the situation was not good.

"The full-army halo is still powerful. Fortunately, it can't be stacked, otherwise, if the five Tree Kings transformed together, the effect would be insane..."

Han Xiao's mind raced, and his eyes locked onto the Town Tree King.

Only by killing the Town Tree King could the enemy's full-army halo be dispelled and the situation reversed. Otherwise, the overall casualties on his side would increase exponentially.

However, at this moment, the Town Tree King, who had gained strength from unleashing the power of the World Tree, retreated instead of advancing. With a step back, he flashed into the heavy protection of the World Tree fleet, and incidentally retracted the conspicuous World Tree roots into his body, having no intention of rushing up to fight Han Xiao.

Han Xiao's eyes changed instantly, his mood churning.

He thought that the Town Tree King would rush up to continue fighting and try to defeat him after transforming and greatly increasing his strength. He never expected that the other party would directly avoid the battle after unleashing his power.

If you weren't going to fight, you should have said so earlier. You made such an imposing impression, getting me all fired up.

'This is bad. If I don't kill him quickly, it'll be troublesome...'

Han Xiao was helpless.

After transforming, the Tree King possessed extremely high strategic value. He no longer took risks, hiding in the fleet to continuously provide buffs to the army. This was a calm approach, but such situations rarely occurred in his previous life. After finally unleashing the power of the World Tree, the Tree Kings' desire for battle also surged, and they would generally fight to their heart's content.

If the other Tree Kings had chosen to avoid battle rationally, he could have accepted it, but this time it was the Town Tree King...

Heavens, the martial artist is no longer stubborn. My youth is over!

Countless World Tree warships protected the commander, Town Tree King. Faced with the seemingly endless barrage of cannons, Han Xiao felt a bit of a headache. Although he was quite confident in his own durability, charging into such a large-scale battlefield alone would be too arrogant.

Moreover, the Town Tree King's strength was too high, and he wouldn't be able to deal with the other party in a short period of time amidst the enemy's army. If he rushed in, he would only be bombarded, suffering a gratuitous barrage.

"You better never come out."

Seeing this, Han Xiao abandoned the Town Tree King and turned to kill the World Tree powerhouses in other battle circles.

If you don't stop me, I'll kill your teammates!

Although the World Tree members never cared about the casualties of their teammates, this strong attack was a pawn exchange. The Town Tree King would always care about these resources used for exchanging, otherwise, his transformation would have very limited significance.

However, Han Xiao's attention was not completely taken away from the Town Tree King, and he still watched the other party's movements, preventing the Town Tree King from taking the opportunity to adjust his tactics, learning from him.

The Town Tree King not stopping him, from another perspective, could also be said to be getting rid of his entanglement, using his companions as bait to lure him away. And he was also using his superior combat power to attack other Super-As, which was also a kind of pawn exchange.

"Because this is a pawn exchange battle, he doesn't want to waste time on a strong opponent like me, turning his head to kill other high-level combat forces, killing one to earn one. Maybe that's the idea..."

Han Xiao secretly speculated on the Town Tree King's intentions.

At the same time, the Town Tree King, heavily protected by the fleet, watched Han Xiao shift his attack target, his expressionless face with a slight flicker in his eyes.

After the previous exchange, he judged that even if he transformed, he might not be able to defeat this amazingly powerful outsider. Therefore, he suppressed the desire to attack, continuing to focus on the strategic goal of pawn exchange... As a Tree King who had fought in multiple civilizations, he would no longer easily lose his composure.

However, he couldn't just stay here and do nothing, otherwise, if he watched the outsider slaughter his companions, his transformation, which was intended to strengthen the pawn exchange effect, would lose its meaning.

Since he wasn't intercepting the strongest opponent, he could only make the same choice, shifting his attack target as well.

Various thoughts flashed through his mind. The Town Tree King turned his head and looked in the direction of the enemy's healing-type esper.

...

In a certain local battlefield, a fleet of the Void Spirit Religion was breached by a World Tree commando team. The escort ships' formation was torn apart, and the central Sun Flare-class main ship was bitten by World Tree assault ships. One after another, assault pods latched onto the main ship's hull, drilling through the armor and sending in batches of World Tree superpower squads to launch boarding battles, trying to seize the main ship from the inside.

At this moment, the interior of the main ship had become a chaotic battlefield. Bloody battles were erupting in every cabin and corridor. The ship's guards were constantly resisting the World Tree superhumans. From time to time, new assault pods would smash open new breaches, with attacks coming in waves.

"Reinforcements! Reinforcements!"

A squad leader pulled out a battle knife inserted into an enemy's body, and a large amount of blood splattered on his armored face. He had no time to wipe it off and urgently called for reinforcements on the channel.

But in the next moment, a blurry afterimage flashed across his vision, and then a sudden force exploded on the side of his head. A large hand grabbed his head and slammed it into the wall. His body twitched a few times and then stopped moving.

The hand quickly retracted. The owner of the hand was a burly World Tree officer, and a large group of his teammates were massacring the soldiers inside the main ship, having already breached this defensive line.

"Head to the main control room!"

The officer shouted, preparing to lead his squad forward.

But at this moment, everyone under their feet suddenly shook, and the bulkhead not far away shattered, revealing half of a dark assault pod.

Whoosh—the hatch opened, and a batch of legion players arrived as reinforcements. Without saying a word, they charged towards the World Tree squad, and the fierce battle immediately erupted.

After a fierce battle, the officer led his troops to wipe out this player squad, but the fearless and brutal fighting style of the opponents had also caused considerable losses.

"Are these people crazy?"

The officer frowned. He had seen people who were not afraid of death, but these people rushed forward wave after wave, simply using their heads to exchange for their injuries... In his opinion, there was only one possibility, that is, the enemy had a strong belief and was willing to exchange lives for injuries.

However, as a World Tree member, he would not be intimidated by this fearless belief. Everyone was not afraid of death. If you want to fight to the death, I will fight to the death with you. Who is afraid of whom?

With no time to rest, the World Tree officer put this matter behind him, about to lead his troops forward.

But at this moment, dense footsteps sounded in the corridor ahead, and another batch of reinforcements arrived, with the same appearance and abilities as the squad that had just been wiped out.

"Huh? These people..."

The World Tree officer was shocked.

He had just killed these people, but they appeared again? What was going on with these people? Could it be that they could not be killed and could be resurrected like them?!

Without giving him time to think, the fierce battle broke out again. Because of the losses in the previous wave, the combat power of this World Tree squad had declined, and the same batch of players turned around and wiped them out. The officer was also surrounded and beaten into pieces—a similar scene was staged in multiple warships.

...

In the command ship of the Three Great Civilizations, Aurora released several Life Dawn beams, but before they could hit the companions in critical condition, they were scattered by several high-level World Tree combat forces midway.

Aurora frowned slightly and lowered her hand.

"I'm too far away from the battlefield. The opponents have ample time to respond and can easily block my energy. This won't work. It's difficult for my abilities to be effective. I need to get closer and shorten the distance."

After Aurora finished speaking, she left the cabin without waiting for Simon's reply, stepped into space, turned into a golden stream of light, left the rear formation, and quickly approached the local battlefield where many Super-As were located.

This scene immediately attracted the attention of many World Tree powerhouses, and a large number of high-level combat forces immediately approached this healing-type esper, but were restrained and blocked by their respective opponents.

Before long, Aurora stopped in the midst of the main fleet of the Three Great Civilizations in this battlefield. Although she had shortened the distance, she did not step into the battlefield, and constantly raised her hand to release Life Dawn, showering down rays of light. If the distance that the Life Dawn needed to cross before was 10, then now it was at most between 2 and 3, and the hit rate was higher than before.

Not only that, but allied life forms within a certain range of her could also obtain an increase in recovery speed. This was the passive halo that Aurora's ability came with after entering the Super-A level, and the range increased with the level. When she was in the command ship just now, the halo range was not enough to cover this place, but now that she had arrived at this battlefield, her halo took effect, covering most of the allied Super-As who were fighting.

"It's dangerous here, don't come over!" Hela saw Aurora at a glance, and her expression changed.

Aurora turned a deaf ear and breathed softly.

Since entering the Super-A level, she had never experienced such a high-intensity battle. Hundreds of Super-As were being treated by her, and the life energy consumed had far exceeded the speed of life force replenishment. Her face gradually turned pale, and she felt that her body was being drained.

At this moment, dozens of World Tree roots suddenly attacked this main fleet from the side. Each root contained amazing energy and shattered a large number of warships with invincible force, tearing open a gap in the formation.

In the next moment, the Town Tree King, like a green beam of light, rapidly shot towards Aurora along the gap, with the power of the World Tree burning fiercely.

He had been looking for an opportunity to kill this healing-type esper. The moment Aurora arrived at the front line, he saw the opportunity. Taking advantage of the fleet's cover to sneak close to the edge of the main fleet, he launched a round of surprise attacks, vowing to eliminate this biggest factor affecting the pawn exchange tactics.

One World Tree root after another formed a giant chariot, rampaging and sweeping away obstacles in its path. At the same time, they blocked the fleet's hasty barrage for the Town Tree King. With the protection of the power of the World Tree, the Town Tree King dug his way into the main warship, with strong impact.

Aurora seemed to be in a panic, hurriedly retreating and condensing holy light to hit the Town Tree King, but it was as weak as tickling and could not stop the Town Tree King's momentum at all.

In the blink of an eye, the Town Tree King teleported to Aurora's front, his arm brought up a trail of green light, drawing a semicircle and slashing towards Aurora's head, as if to smash her into a meat paste from top to bottom.

The pressure that spanned two watersheds was fully locked on Aurora. Aurora seemed to be shocked, maintaining a panic expression, frozen in place and unable to move.

But at this moment, a fierce mental shock suddenly erupted with Aurora as the center. It was extremely aggressive and almost condensed into substance.

The Town Tree King's brain ached, and his fist involuntarily deviated. The crescent-shaped fist light, like a blade of light, brushed past Aurora and shot out, shattering hundreds of warships along the way.

Sorokin's figure separated from Aurora, appearing behind her like a Stand, gently pressing his brow, his mental energy spewing out endlessly, his ability fully activated, and his aura stirring.

"There's another protector?"

The Town Tree King's expression remained unchanged. He was about to get rid of Sorokin's mental ability and continue to attack Aurora, but at this moment, a sudden change occurred.

The panic on Aurora's face disappeared in an instant, and she returned to calm, as if she had expected it. The necklace she wore suddenly unfolded, and the mechanical structure instantly covered her whole body, turning into a mechanical armor that the Town Tree King was quite familiar with.

Whoosh!

In the next instant, a flash of light, and Aurora disappeared, leaving only Sorokin and a throne.

At the same time, Han Xiao's figure appeared out of thin air, replacing her original position. Before the Town Tree King could respond, he raised his hand and used a move of Unbreakable Love: Seven Days Lock, hanging himself on the Town Tree King.

"I knew you wouldn't give up on cutting the healer!"

Han Xiao's strong arms strangled the Town Tree King's neck, feeling a burst of enormous force hitting his chest and abdomen, like holding a lively jumping fish. The Town Tree King was constantly struggling in his arms.

The Town Tree King had been hiding in the fleet all along, with few opportunities to attack. He specifically let Aurora come out to play a wave. Although it was a simple bait tactic, he believed that the World Tree powerhouses would not be able to sit still. After all, the World Tree's combat thinking was different. Han Xiao considered from the other party's point of view that, in their eyes, only by cutting off the healer could they smoothly carry out the pawn exchange tactics, and it was worth sacrificing some high-level combat forces for this. There was a certain probability of luring the Town Tree King out again... Although the hook was straight, it couldn't stand the fact that people were willing, which was a simple and effective plan.

The Town Tree King was expressionless, constantly raising his elbow to bombard the back, raining down on Han Xiao's abdomen. Shockwaves exploded between the two of them.

Some of the surrounding World Tree roots resisted the surrounding fleet's barrage, and some struck the two of them heavily, trying to pull Han Xiao off the Town Tree King.

In terms of strength attributes, the Town Tree King was still stronger. Han Xiao couldn't lock the other party, but just before the Town Tree King was about to break free, mechanical structures quickly spread along the point of contact between Han Xiao and the Town Tree King, turning into a Sovereign Armor and wrapping the Town Tree King up.

"Eat my move, Pterodactyl Wings Together!"

Han Xiao's machinery power flashed, and the figures of the two disappeared from the spot.

Swish!

In the next moment, the two appeared out of thin air in a strange blank area in the rear formation of the Three Great Civilizations, as if the fleet had deliberately left it out early.

The moment the two appeared, the surrounding fleets, which had been prepared for a long time, activated the surrounding protective shield devices, quickly forming a spherical barrier to include the area, and then immediately evacuated.

The Town Tree King frowned, finally exerting force to break free from Han Xiao's embrace, kicking Han Xiao away, turning his head and glancing at the surrounding environment, discovering that hundreds of strange-looking mechanical devices were floating in this area.

At the same moment he observed, hundreds of mechanical devices suddenly lit up, like opening hundreds of wormhole passages, and the inside of the passages was filled with dazzling light, emitting a palpitating energy wave.

Han Xiao stopped the falling figure and narrowed his eyes.

"Hundreds of modified versions of the Key of Destruction are enough for you and me to have a drink!"

Long before the start of the war, Han Xiao had specifically instructed the Three Great Civilizations to set up this type of trap, placing the throne in the trap.

The Three Great Civilizations had set up many similar traps before the war, cooperating with the mechanisms of different Cosmic Treasures to try to form combo skills, and the trap at hand was one example, and it was also the plan proposed by Han Xiao—using the Sovereign mechanical armor's teleportation and the Key of Destruction's lethality to form a death zone.

Advanced Version·Going to the Yellow Springs Together!

Buzz!

In the next moment, light that could blind people's eyes gushed out from hundreds of passages, instantly filling the area and submerging the figures of the two.
