The golden fruit that exuded an exceptional aura was an uncompromising bait.
The corpse that floated in the blood pool also explained the god’s ancient tree’s battle achievements during this time.
He opened the attribute panel and glanced at the other party’s attributes.
The god’s ancient tree’s level had already risen to level 11.
It was distinctly much sturdier than when he first discovered the human-faced giant tree.
Richard retracted his gaze and began to think.
The A-rank skill of the god’s ancient tree — the body of the curse was exceptionally strapping.
It was immune to all spells and curses below A-rank. It was immune to instant death skills and poison. It could absorb energy from the surrounding corpses to quickly restore vitality until the corpse’s energy was exhausted.
This skill was coupled with its boss’ characteristic — turning the land within a 100-meter radius into rotten land. It could store the energy of the corpses in the ground.
It instantly made it highly subtle.
It was like a rechargeable treasure with a massive amount of power. As long as it was injured, it could immediately absorb the energy stored in the ground to recover.
Although the dark contract was a 4-stars treasure with A-rank attributes, it had many restrictions.
The most critical rule was that the human-faced giant tree could not have a will too strong to resist.
That meant it could only sign the contract after the god’s ancient tree was down to its last breath.
When Richard thought of this, his eyes sparked with vitality as he looked at the poisonous wasps that flew in the sky.
He asked the two mummy heroes to wait there with a troop.
He went alone.
To him, the biggest threat was not the god’s evil ancient tree itself. But the poisonous wasps that it bred.
He would cripple this ancient god’s ancient tree in his eyes without the protection of these flying troops.
He could only let him slaughter it.
More importantly…
He felt he received an extensive increase in strength after the bathe in the dragon’s blood.
He wanted to see if his strength could take down this boss alone.
Although the opponent’s level had risen to level 11, it was a powerful boss template.
But in comparison, his Beyond A-rank skills, glorious-level template, and bathing in the dragon’s blood had extensively increased his attributes.
He was even more insane than the opponent.
He seemed more like a boss compared to the god’s ancient tree.
Richard’s glorious-level battle record in the dungeon, coupled with his increased control and knowledge of his skills in battle, had already built up strong confidence at this moment.
Moreover, the desert was his home ground.
Yellow sand surged and floated in the air.
Richard approached the blood-colored oasis with sand and dust.
The light in the sky gradually dimmed at this moment.
It was the first time he had seen the god’s ancient tree. It was only level 5 and had not changed ranks yet.
At that time, he was so shocked he only dared to take a glance from afar. He immediately retreated before he could see the appearance of the other party.
With the strength of Twilight City at that time, they would not be able to defeat this powerful boss even if all the troops were to fight.
However, he did not expect that in just two months.
He had already grown to the point where he could look down on the boss.
Whether it was himself or the strength of Twilight City, both of them had greatly enhanced.
A strong sense of achievement rose in his heart.
The massive movement that brought with it a sky full of yellow sand immediately aroused the vigilance of the god’s ancient tree.
The distorted face on the trunk suddenly let out a low, chilling roar.
‘Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!’
Several highly poisonous wasps instantly buzzed as noisy as if someone had stabbed their beehive. The noise was ten times louder.
The 10-centimeter-tall giant wasps revealed poisonous needles that glowed with a faint blue light on their abdomens and surged wildly toward Richard.
On one side was a sandstorm, and on the other was a troop of wasps. The sky was divided into two parts at this moment.
It gave a strong visual impact.
When the poisonous wasps approached Richard.
An even more majestic power erupted from his body.
Countless grains of sand surged up from the ground and flew into the sky.
‘Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!’
The grains of sand hit the poisonous wasps with a powerful force, like a crisp sound of metal colliding.
The poisonous wasp fearlessly charged into the sandstorm. It wanted to intercept it head-on.
A massive round sand chrysalis condensed around the target when they got close.
The poisonous wasp attacked crazily, its stinger continuously stabbed into the sand chrysalis.
But no matter how they attacked, they could not break through this thick and heavy sand chrysalis.
Their small size gave them an exceptionally nimble advantage in speed.
However, their weakness was they were helpless against such an exaggerated and thick shield.
The poisonous wasps were like assassins. They had high attack and agility, and they carried poison. Their attack power was low.
Richard sensed the sand chrysalis already crawled with poisonous wasps. He flew over to the sky above the god’s ancient tree with some playfulness.
The human-faced giant tree sensed the enemy was approaching. The twisted face of the tree trunk let out a low roar.
The sound was like the roar of a giant beast from the abyss. It made one’s soul tremble.
The tree trunk danced as if it wanted to shoot down the enemy in the sky.
However, Richard floated 50 meters in the air, far beyond the attack range of the god’s ancient tree.
The existence of the poisonous wasps made up for the weakness of not being able to attack the air. However, the poisonous wasps could not stop Richard from advancing in this way.
The sand chrysalis around him was more than one meter thick.
The poisonous wasps were only 10 centimeters in size. With the toxic wasps’ stingers, they were no more than 20 centimeters.
The three poisonous wasps couldn’t pierce through the sand chrysalis even if they were connected.
What was worse was that the sand chrysalis could be filled up at any time…
Under the fury of the god’s ancient tree, all the poisonous wasps swarmed over and wrapped the sand chrysalis around them.
Richard was pleased.
