Chapter 277: Chapter 213: Summoning the Treant! Left social and right millet, the earth helps me!
Zheng Cheng looked at the egg in front of him with ambiguity, not understanding what it was up to.
Suddenly, another faint fluctuation sound emanated from the egg.
“Blood…blood?”
Zheng Cheng, taken aback, picked up the egg and placed it next to the carcass of a black-armored worm.
Black fresh blood flowed, and strands of the fresh blood surprisingly seeped through the eggshell and into the egg.
“Does this egg need to absorb the fresh blood of the alien beasts?”
Zheng Cheng’s eyes flickered, immediately deciding on the next course of action.
First, he returned to his home ground with the egg and placed it beside the home crystal.
All around were alien beast carcasses being transported by the soldiers. As the crystal absorbed the carcasses, a large amount of sticky fresh blood also gathered beside the crystal.
And there, the alien beast’s egg slowly absorbed the fresh blood.
In the meantime, Zheng Cheng unsheathed the Yunxiao Sword and continued dissecting the delivered worm and black-armored worm carcasses.
When he slashed down with his sword, a sudden eerie fluctuation was transmitted to him.

[Toxin Absorption: You can absorb any type of toxin and convert it into energy you need.]
[Possessing complete black-skinned worm DNA structure means you can replicate it anytime by consuming your vigor and constitution.]
The DNA of the black-skinned worm was finally in the bag!
Soon, all black-skinned worms were dissected.
The remaining ones were two-star black-armored worms.
The food ingredients dissected from black-armored worms resulted in two-star black bug carapace.
[Special Food Ingredient: Black Bug Carapace]

Zheng Cheng’s eyes flickered and continued dissecting.
A large number of black bug carapaces were dissected. After fiercely saving up thirty capsules for himself,
The remaining Special Food Ingredients were all rewarded to Zhang San, Chen Zhong, Yang Hou’er, Niu Jindao, and others.
Besides this, he also obtained a large quantity of DNA from the black-armored worms, continuously assembling the DNA structure of the black-armored worm.
“My lord!”
Chen Zhong hurried over with some men and blurted, “We found this flower in a part of the woods on the left. Do they meet my lord’s satisfaction?”
Zheng Cheng glanced over, seeing Chen Zhong and a few soldiers behind him carrying vegetation, which resembled an ivy group.
However, it was over ten times larger than regular ivy.
At the top of the plant bloomed seven or eight black and yellow flowers, each the size of a basin.
“What flower is this?”
Zheng Cheng was somewhat puzzled, but still took out the Flower Scepter and pointed it at one of the flowers anyway.
The third skill awarded by the Flower Scepter – Flower Scepter!
[Skill 3: Condensing Nectar (Active), Consumes spiritual power and can use different types of flowers to condense nectar that can restore constitution and spirits. The quality of nectar depends on the rank and freshness of the target flower. The higher the flower’s rank, the stronger the effect of the nectar condensed.]
With a flicker of a faint green light, the flower quickly wilted.
On the wilted flower, a pool of light yellow nectar gradually formed.
He lifted it for a look, and his eyes slightly brightened.
[Name: Pest-Repelling Flower Nectar]
[Quality: Three-Star]
[Effect: After consumption, it can quickly restore physical strength and also release a scent that repels insects, preventing them from approaching.]
“Hmm?”
Zheng Cheng’s eyes flickered, “Pest-repelling flower? There are such flowers?”
“Chen Zhong!”
“At your service!”
“Gather as many of these flowers as you can!”
“Yes, sir!”
As Zheng Cheng was rapidly advancing, other promising students’ tribes were also taking on challenges!
“Squeak, squeak…”
“Kill!”
Among dozens of black skinned worms, Ran Dao stood tall like the Needle that Stabilizes the Sea, tirelessly slaying amidst the swarm.
Behind him, were over a dozen militiamen, brandishing their crude weapons to fend off those that leaked through.
Cui Xiabing, wielding her magic staff, radiated a faint green glow. Countless vines grew from the surrounding ground, blocking the front of the tribe and forming a simple barricade!
As a Shepherd of Trees, she was naturally capable of controlling all plants and could shepherd the forest!
Under her power, the entire tribe was protected by large amounts of trees and vines, leaving only a few gates for the soldiers to move in and out.
“He’s indeed a hero… he’s able to hold off a direction full of black skinned worms on his own.”
“I’m going to allocate all resources to him. With him, I’ll definitely be…”
“Military counselor!”
“Military counselor!”
Suddenly, a soldier burst in, panicked, “Military counselor! We’re unable to hold off the back! There are so many alien beasts…”
“Don’t panic, lead me there!”
Cui Xiabing confidently followed the soldier to the back of the tribe, where dozens of black-skinned worms were crowded, incessantly gnawing at the vines.
The soldiers manning this direction were all newly summoned, and their strength was not strong.
“Military counselor, shall we summon General Ran Dao over? He’s the only…”
“General Ran Dao is currently on the main front, absorbing the attack of the alien beasts. We can’t go lightly!”
Cui Xiabing said immediately, “Leave this here to me.”
“But military counselor…”
The militia wanted to say something, but Cui Xiabing suddenly raised her staff, chanting some complicated spells, and cast a harsh spell at a point to the right of her home.
That direction was a dense forest!
“Crack, crack, crack…”
With a grating friction sound, the six big trees closest to their home started to shake violently.
Leaves and branches were flung into the air, the ground beneath them exploded, and their thick and vigorous roots brutally tore from the soil.
Even on the rough surface of the branches, blurry human faces started to sprout.
“Roar~”
They roared in anger, dragging their massive and heavy bodies, they lumbered towards the Alien Beasts.
Their bodies were still far away, but numerous vines sprouted from them, thudding into the wave of beasts, binding seven or eight Alien Beasts, and instantly crushing them to bits.
Summon Tree Spirit!
Another one of Cui Xiabing’s skills.
It allowed her to transform trees into tree people with fighting abilities.
The greater the quality and age of the tree, the stronger the tree person summoned!
Even…
If some special ability-possessing spirit trees, demon trees, etc., were encountered, she could summon tree people with corresponding abilities!
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
With the participation of these six massive tree people, the wave of beasts was quickly suppressed.
All the militia present were staring, amazed, at these six tree people measuring over ten meters tall, their eyeballs were almost popping out.
“So, so powerful!”
“The trees are helping us resist the beast tide? This is the power of the military counselor!”
“The military counselor’s power is too powerful…”
Even Ran Dao was surprised as he looked at Cui Xiabing.
“The military counselor actually has the power to transform big trees into tree people. If she could transform all the big trees in this world into tree people, wouldn’t she be able to completely deal with the threat of Alien Beasts!”
“Wait a moment… I am waiting for a leader who can carry on the human’s future, not a flash in the pan…!”
On the other side.
The hillside.
Chu He watched calmly as the black-skinned worms, also some black-armored worms, flowed like a tide at the foot of the mountain.
In front of his home, there appeared to be a slope about thirty or forty meters long and three or four meters high, for no known reason.
Hundreds of black-skinned worms and black-armored worms were all obstructed by this slope, striving to climb over.
On the other side of the slope, there were over thirty soldiers summoned by Chu He of two other types.
Two-star Archers.
Two-star Stone Throwers.
This was a rare type of soldier that could exploit stones to damage the enemy.
The throwable range of the stones exceeded two hundred meters, it was a potent and accurate strike, which could easily fracture the target’s skull.
His home was located in the mountain region, with stones as the most plentiful resource!
The prisoners he had summoned earlier had already been discarded by him as cannon fodder.
At this moment, a large group of black-skinned worms suddenly surged from the mountain’s foot, joining the fray.
His home had the benefit of natural geographical factors, which minimized the need for rear defense.
But, all the invading Alien Beasts would attack from the front, increasing the pressure!
“Sir!”
The captain of the archers ran over and yelled, “Our arrows are exhausted, and we don’t have time to clean up the battlefield. We cannot replenish the iron…”
“Attack with stones for now!”
Chu He voiced gravely, “I will provide a temporary safe area for you, try to clean up the closest battlefield in front of our ranks as quickly as possible and prioritize the collection of iron!”
“Yes, sir!”
Chu He reached out his hand and suddenly, a seven-star sword of apricot yellow appeared in his grip.
The red sword tassel fluttered in the wind, and the body of the sword twinkled like stars.
“Military Counselor Art· Deception and Disloyalty.”
“Kill!”
“Humming…”
A strange wave suddenly spread from in front of Chu He into the tide of beasts.
The seven or eight black-skinned worms at the forefront suddenly let out a shriek, turned around and charged at their comrades, vigorously tearing into them.
The entire formation immediately plunged into chaos.
Seizing this opportunity, Chu He once again jabbed his seven-star sword toward the beasts.
“Left Altar Right National god, aid me!!!”
“Boom!”
There was a tremor in the earth in front of the beasts. The ground swelled up, forming a three or four meter high soil wall, separating the forward units of the beasts from the main force.
The seven or eight black-skinned worms, lured by Chu He, fought fiercely and killed the black-skinned worms that coincidentally appeared on this side of the soil wall.
The soldiers under Chu He’s command took advantage of this opportunity to rush down the slope, heading down to kill.
“Quick! Clear the battlefield!”
“A cup of tea! We only have the duration of a cup of tea!”
“Kill these Alien Beasts first!”
“Kill!”
More than thirty soldiers simultaneously charged, killing the black-skinned worms left behind, and cleaned up the iron and other materials in the area, then retreated back to the slope.
With the support of the iron, the archers could act again.
Arrows shot out one after another, killing the surging black-skinned worms!
On both sides of the military formation, the archer towers, arrayed in the Sancai formation, also fired crossbow arrows at the same time, holding back the tide of black-skinned worms!
Chu He calmly stated, “The overall situation has been decided, as long as we can withstand the initial beast wave attack, the subsequent waves are not worthy of concern!”
As he spoke, he drew his seven-star sword once again, turned and charged into the horde of beasts, executing a killing blade strike!
Meanwhile, by the riverside, Zhuang Shuai was staring at the dead bodies of the black-skinned worms, lost in thought.
“This thing… can it be eaten?”
