Chapter 61: Undead Creatures (Axi Ruoxi Remembers the Past +1)

Entering the National Fate Instance for the first time, Bai Nian could be said to have absolutely no experience.

There was only some basic information within the territory.

Although she had a Map, she did not know exactly how large the area occupied by each Alliance was, and there was no contact at all between the various parties.

Chen Yi was a member of Kunlun, so he would inevitably be the leader, and those people must have already discussed their countermeasures when they entered this place.

How to contact everyone was something they should do; at the very least, current Bai Nian only needed to deal with the immediate crisis.

“Luckily, I am just an ordinary person. If I were a leader, there would be many more things to consider.”

She sighed, her gaze looking toward the vast, boundless grassland around her, feeling a bit confused for a moment.

Fortunately, there was a Hill not far away where the vegetation was all black, looking out of place in this world.

If she wanted to find something, she could only start from there.

However, what she did not know was that Chen Yi was also entering the National Fate Instance for the first time.

Coming to the foot of the Hill, Bai Nian discovered that this Hill was not high.

On the Hill was a patch of closely connected black trees.

These trees were unusually tall, at least ten meters high by visual estimation.

It was these trees that invisibly ‘raised’ the height of the Hill.

Once they entered, the shade of the trees blocked the Sunlight, as if they were in a completely dark world.

Eerie sounds that rang out from time to time, accompanied by the intermittent mournful wails of Crows, added a touch of weirdness to the place.

“Do you recognize this place?”

Bai Nian turned back and asked.

Since these troop types came from this world, they should probably have some understanding of this place, right?

“Reporting to the Lord, your subordinate does not know.”

Xiao Bai bowed respectfully, expressing her apologies.

Bai Nian was not surprised and continued to ask, “Then what do you know?”

“Reporting to the Lord, your subordinate only knows that thousands of non-human races live here. Some of them are very aggressive, and some only patrol their own territory, but without exception, they are good helpers for war.”

Xiao Bai opened her mouth to explain.

Bai Nian was slightly surprised.

She didn’t expect them to actually know something.

“From the looks of it, this Hill in front of us should be the territory of some kind of creature?”

“Reporting to the Lord, your subordinate does not know.”

Xiao Bai said respectfully, because she was also not sure.

“Let’s look around first.”

Bai Nian said, “After all, food is also an issue.”

The group continued to set out toward the Hill.

These Dream Makers surrounded her in the center, doing their best to prevent their Lord from encountering danger.

Although they were just a group of ordinary people…

These large black trees actually had nothing special about them.

Bai Nian found that they were no different from ordinary trees.

It wasn’t until half an hour later, when the group reached the mountainside, that they saw a huge cave.

The entrance of this cave was about three meters high, clearly a nest where some kind of giant creature lived.

Besides that, there were some low, withered trees around.

These withered trees had no leaves, only bare trunks, and their shapes were like monsters with claws and fangs, spread out all around the cave.

The surroundings were silent.

Even the Crows had stopped their mournful wailing, as if they were fearing some terrifying thing.

Suddenly, Bai Nian noticed the gaze of an eerie look from behind her, and she suddenly turned her head to look.

The withered trees behind them had come to life at some unknown time.

The branches were coiling and dancing, and a twisted ghost face emerged on the thick trunks.

A withered branch hidden under the dead leaves on the ground was curving toward them, like a lurking venomous snake, and it was now about to reach the feet of a Dream Maker.

“Watch out!”

she hurriedly shouted to warn the other party, but it was already too late.

The branch instantly sprouted from the ground, kicking up a large number of leaves, and directly entangled the ankle of this Dream Maker, then suddenly pulled up, hanging her in mid-air.

At the same time, other withered branches also attacked from all directions, intending to tear her directly into pieces.

Bai Nian met its gaze, but found that this strange tree simply could not be affected by Hypnosis.

Another group of dead things!

She didn’t have time to think much and decisively rushed up, wanting to help.

But just at this moment, an abnormality occurred again.

Those branches actually all stopped eerily around the young girl, and then they directly decayed like wood that had been air-dried for many years, turning into wood chips and beginning to dissipate.

“What’s the situation?”

Bai Nian was stunned, not understanding the situation.

The girl was also saved by falling to the ground because of the rotting branches, and the Ghost Face Tree not far from her had also completely dissipated.

“Dead?”

Bai Nian quickly scanned the surroundings and found that these strange trees had all come to life and were launching attacks toward them.

The Dream Makers quickly surrounded her, and Xiao Bai shouted, “Protect the Lord!”

“Wait, I’m thinking!”

Bai Nian said suddenly.

Since these trees cannot be affected by Hypnosis, then they should be similar to those Skeletons and Zombies; but they can also be directly solved by the Dream Makers…

There is only one truth!

“Can you control them?”

Bai Nian blurted out.

This group of guys looked like they didn’t have much intelligence.

Controlling them should be very simple.

“Lord, they are trees…”

Xiao Bai said.

Trees cannot move.

Their only way of attacking was to rely on those branches that could be extended.

“Forget it then, let’s just solve all of them.”

She said with a slight hint of regret.

As soon as she finished speaking, the surrounding Dream Makers immediately activated their Ability to Manifest Weapons.

Bai Nian, who was close at hand, clearly observed a gleam flashing in their eyes.

Immediately afterward, these Ghost Face Trees were easily dealt with.

A crisis that seemed like an ambush was unexpectedly perfectly countered by these Dream Makers.

A smell of decay permeated the air, but the tall cave not far away actually had no reaction.

Bai Nian guessed that the creatures inside might not be in their nest at this moment.

Should she go into the cave to take a look?

It was too dark inside, the Dream Makers did not have Night Vision, and their bodies were those of ordinary people.

They might encounter some danger.

“Lord, these trees should belong to the Undead category. They will only wake up when they feel the breath of living things approaching.”

Xiao Bai opened her mouth to explain.

Bai Nian suddenly realized upon hearing this.

When they came, these Ghost Face Trees were exactly the same as ordinary trees.

Based on this alone, it was enough to explain, “The thing inside the cave is also a dead thing!”

And the Dream Makers were existences that countered them.

Bai Nian made a prompt decision.

“Go, follow me into the cave!”
