Chapter 2307 Running around

Once the clanspeople had mostly departed, Elder Yuri, now awake in the mirrored projection, turned his gaze to Senzo and said, "Senzo, the sacred tree is still not fully restored. We cannot continue to invoke its power indefinitely."
"Yeah, I understand. Fang Heng is still useful to us, I know how to handle this." Senzo spoke, his gaze gradually turning stern, "But if he's not willing to obediently comply..."
...
Outside the habitat, the Licker horde surged back relentlessly toward the barrier!
The tree spirit tribe guards had to retreat again into the habitat, relying on the outer periphery of the barrier for defense.
Serge tried various methods, even risking two squads of tree spirit tribe warriors in a dangerous attempt to divert the Licker horde away from their kin.
Unfortunately, it was all in vain.
The Licker horde had fixed their target, returning swiftly after brief pursuits to assault the barrier.
"No good."
Their speed in killing the Lickers was simply too slow.
Serge frowned deeply.
The battlefield situation was extremely unfavorable for them.
The Lickers' regenerative capabilities could only be described as terrifying, even attacks enhanced by high-tier nature spells failed to inflict fatal wounds upon them.
What to do?!
"A hum..."
A pale cyan light once again appeared in the central area of the habitat.
The dimensional strength of the sacred tree was activated once more.
In the distance, Fang Heng stood with the returning vampires, watching from afar until the power of the sacred tree was invoked again.
Fang Heng raised his hand, "Let's go."
"Yes!"
The princes and dukes of the vampires nodded in unison.
This time, they understood.
A distraction tactic, right?
Vampires were inherently an orderly clan, and Fang Heng's influence among them even surpassed that of their progenitor. Within the clan, Fang Heng's word was law.
So, let's distract them.
Let's play!
Fang Heng saw clearly that the Leaf tribe was unwilling to engage directly with him, hence their intensified use of natural power twice in a row, each stronger than the last.
It could be seen as a warning.
The more they warned, the more Fang Heng sensed the Leaf tribe's unease.
He understood it perfectly.
The brief enhancements to the sacred tree's release of strength consumed dimensional energy.
This stuff was extremely precious.
Using it like this, even Fang Heng felt a twinge of regret, not just for the Leaf tribe, but even watching it himself.
What a waste, what a waste...
If only Abe Akaya could absorb it.
In comparison, his Lickers could resurrect indefinitely. If both sides continued like this, the Leaf tribe wouldn't hold out for long.
On the front lines, after the sacred tree's power erupted for the second time, the tree spirit tribe's output instantly increased more than threefold!
Their kill efficiency improved slightly.
Natural arrows were now starting to threaten the Lickers' lives.
The Leaf tribe guards gained some confidence, preparing for a significant battle, but the Licker horde swiftly retreated once again.
"Chase them!"
After several rounds of engagement, Serge found it increasingly difficult to contain his emotions. Immediately, he led his clan forward in pursuit, systematically slaughtering the Lickers along the way.
Unfortunately, their killing speed was still too slow. For a horde numbering in the tens of thousands, losing a few hundred was inconsequential.
Huh?
Mid-chase, Serge's pupils suddenly contracted as he instinctively looked upward.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"
Suddenly, a series of densely packed blood-colored bombs rained down from above!
Oh no!
It's an ambush!
As they chased, Serge's squad had moved beyond the protective range of the sacred tree's strength, causing most of them to lose the frontal buffs granted by the sacred tree.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The dense soul bombs caused extensive casualties among the tree spirit tribe.
"Watch out! The enemy is above us!"
The Leaf tribe immediately countered with natural arrows aimed at the sky.
The vampire princes and dukes dodged the incoming arrows as best they could; those they couldn't evade were met with the vampires' own barriers.
Without the sanctuary of the sacred tree, the vampires clearly felt the battle becoming more challenging.
The Lickers swiftly closed in!
The already chaotic tree spirit tribe now descended into utter disarray.
Serge frowned deeply, realizing the situation was dire.
They had walked into an ambush!
Serge and several clan elders glanced upwards, their eyes betraying surprise.
Who were these humans hovering in the air?
They had thought only Fang Heng could control lifeblood like this, but there were others with similar abilities?
Since when did humans possess such eerie capabilities?
"Retreat!"
Serge decisively chose to withdraw.
The situation was dire; they were already surrounded by enemies. Continuing like this would make it even harder to break through if the Licker horde closed in.
"Humph..."
In the shadows, a pair of cold eyes fixed on Serge and his group.
They had come this far.
Now they wanted to run?
Not leaving anything behind?
Psychic impact!
Blood manipulation!
Fang Heng had already chosen his target, immediately using his skills on one of the elders in the team.
In the Leaf tribe's ranks, an elder suddenly sensed something, their mind freezing for a moment.
Their spirit momentarily flickered, and when they regained awareness, they were astonished to find their blood flowing uncontrollably!
What in the world!?
In the chaos, the guard legion of the tree spirit tribe was swiftly retreating. Spotting the unusual behavior of an elder, they hesitated for a moment before two incoming Lickers viciously pounced and brought him down.
"Elder Nanu!"
Several nearby Leaf tribe guards rushed forward, repelling the Lickers and helping Elder Nanu to his feet.
Nanu gritted his teeth, veins bulging on his forehead.
He struggled to restrain the rapid surge of blood within him.
"Elder, you..."
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!!!"
The next moment, a dense barrage of lifeblood bombs rained down from above, targeting Elder Nanu's position and the surrounding Leaf tribe guards. They were instantly hit by the waves of lifeblood, sent flying and severely wounded.
The tree spirit tribe had always fought independently, relying on individual strength rather than coordinated tactics. Simply achieving concentrated fire on targets was considered a success.
Serge had led a large team of over five hundred from the clan this time. Amid the chaos, it was difficult to notice a few individuals falling behind. With over five hundred people, casualties were unfortunately normal.
As long as the majority could be safely evacuated, it was alright.
He couldn't afford to delay the evacuation of the entire large team because of a few casualties.
However, Serge had never imagined that among those who left the team was an elder of the clan!
When Serge and his group retreated all the way to safety near the habitat, they finally began to count the number of people in the group.
Serge's face showed frustration.
D*mn it!
They were set up!
Fortunately, they evacuated in time, and casualties were relatively small.
But what about those humans in the air?
What was their situation?
Why did they have the ability to fly and powerful lifeblood manipulation skills?
