Chapter 73: Angry ancient tree

In response to the Ogre King, it was a storm of arrows.
Magni carried the enchanted battle axe "Giant Slayer", rode a horse from heaven, and in a firm tone represented the ogre lord on behalf of all the tribes: "The noble Algongans will never bow to the robbers for mercy!"
The young green wild druids followed around Magni, and they all chanted prayers without fear, turning natural divine power into flames and thunder and lightning to the ogre lord.
"Stubborn humans, you are destroying yourself!"
Shrek cursed and raised the left side of the tower shield. His mythical power has been exhausted, and it is a bit embarrassed to withstand the angry siege of many Asa people. Fortunately, the Ogre Warriors followed up in time, and the kings who followed them rushed into the city gate, helping Shrek to share the pressure in time.
The first to come to Shrek was Casio. The court poet rode a snowy white horse and used the cold iron-forged lute as a shield to block flying arrows from all directions.
"King! Don't get entangled with the enemy here, the most important thing now is to find Ilminsur!"
Casio's words reminded Shrek. Zheng focused his head and said to the poet beside him: "I will lead the Dragoons to continue to rush forward, and the warriors of the step will be handed over to you to command, try to hold down the enemy and help me fight for time!" After the explanation, Shrek took the bronze horn from Casio and personally sounded the charge.
The warriors under Shrek included a "heavy cavalry company". The riders were elite warriors wearing elaborate breastplates and holding a ten-foot barbed chain. These "Ogre Chain Fighters" mounts are not ordinary war horses, but a group of "swollen head dragons" with complete saddlery. This ornithid dinosaur is very common in deep forest valleys. It feeds on leaves and fruits. Its mouth resembles a beak, and it walks upright with a strong hind limb. Like a group of scaled ostriches, it is larger than a warhorse. Long-distance raids carried heavily armed ogres.
This group of ogres domesticated "swollen head dragon" as its name, forehead covered with a hard and thick bone plate, like a raised helmet, under the urge of the rider to bury his head and rush towards the opposite Asa people. The dragons' foreheads were shaped like "siege hammers", and they immediately knocked the roadblockers upside down. They stiffly crossed the defensive positions and followed the armored giant bears that King Shrek rode forward.
Under the command of Magni, the Assa warrior held up his spear and tried to thrust the running dinosaur. The ogre warrior riding on the back of the swollen dragon wielded a chain of spikes, like a whirlwind of whirling steel, spurting the spears stabbed on both sides, and flying the Asa militia holding the spear. The broken leather armor mixed with blood splashed all over the sky.
Magni saw that the Ogre Cavalry was about to break through his own defense line, and urged the horse to rush up, intending to personally intercept the Ogre Lord. He accidentally saw a familiar figure flashing around him, and shouted his sister's name without thinking.
Conti looked back at his elder brother from the back of Dreadclaw, arguing loudly before Magni was angry: "The ogre leader rushed in the direction of the grove of woods. Joan is still in the woods. I must hurry to find him! "
"I don't know if you are alive, you should take care of yourself first!" Magni yelled angrily.
At the same time when the brothers and sisters had a brief conversation, Casio on the opposite side was not idle, playing the lute on the battlefield. The melody performed by the minstrel contains the mysterious magic that affects the emotions of the audience. The same melody falls into the ears of ogres and humans, and plays a very different role.
The ogres listened to Casio's performance and were all excited and wailed, their eyes were congested and raged, and their fighting power was greatly improved. On the opposite side, the Asa people heard that Casio's music was just harsh noise, which made them feel upset and hard to concentrate. This piece of music has the greatest impact on the caster. The Druids of the Green Field are difficult to maintain concentration under the interference of this harsh magic sound. A little distraction will cause the spell to fail.
The situation of this diminishing situation caused the Assa defenders to struggle. Magni had to leave most of the troops to resist the ogre infantry, and only brought a cavalry company to chase Shrek, and insisted on staying by his side. Her sister is also helpless and can only comfort herself to think about the benefits-the sister is better than running around on the battlefield, at least she can take care of her nearby.
Shrek led the Ogre Cavalier to break through the defense line near the city gate, and then no longer encountered a worthwhile block. The long drive straight into the ash forest and searched for the direction passed by "Wind Speed" before "Stealing Soul" Canikwe It didn't take long to find an open area in front of the woods.
A leafy tree is rooted in the middle of the open space, and glows golden and bright under the afternoon sun. Shrek felt the mythical power of that huge ash tree, and immediately guessed that it was the goal of his trip-the descendant of the "World Tree" and the sacred tree "Ilmin Sur" of the Algonquin tribe!
"Ilmin Sur, Shrek finally found the burial ground of the'Fountain of Wisdom'!" Ogre Lord cheered with excitement.
At the same time, the ancient holy tree seemed to be aware of the maliciousness from the ogre lord, waking up from the sleep, an old and majestic face appeared in the middle of the trunk, and the deep eyes looked at the group of ogres cavalry opposite.
"Whoo... a fat-headed, big-mouthed robber! You should not break into my woods, nor should you wake an old man from his sleep."
The displeased words of ancient trees echoed in the air, and a fence of thorns suddenly rose outside the glade to isolate Shrek and his men from all outside.
The ogre cavalry wielded the barbed chain in an attempt to destroy the wall of thorns, but the flexible thorns were pulled back and bounced back with double force, like countless barbed long whips vengefully avenged the offender and put the chain fighter from the back of the dinosaur. Swept down, screamed and fell into the bush. The more the ogres trapped in the bush of thorns struggle, the more wounds are stabbed out of their bodies, and the blood and flesh are vague and unbearable.
Ilminsul chanted magical prayers calmly under the guard of the thorn wall, the glowing branches touched the surrounding trees, and the low bushes were activated as "overgrown monsters", dragging the branches to the ogre, and then The panicked robber ripped off the dinosaur's back and was entangled. Tall trees were injected with more powerful divine power, and turned into a wise "tree man". The giant feet pulled out of their roots and knots approached the recent criminals. The large hands composed of huge branches swept in the air and put the dragon on the back. The ogres flew one by one, and their noses were blue and swollen and dizzy.
Shrek tried to reorganize the charge, but all his mounts, including his armored giant bear, became disobedient and refused to attack Ilminsur. After a brief surprise, Shrek realized that the ancient holy tree on the opposite side had a special druid-like ability, able to use his spiritual power to communicate with the beast, forcing the giant bear and dinosaur to remain neutral in this battle, refusing to use violent means. Their owners serve.
Most of the tree people awakened by the Ilminsul spell were only temporarily energized, and they will take root and return to the tree after the spell ends. The only exception is that black oak tree. The "Little Black" who moved here from Delin Town is a real intelligent plant. It does not need Ilminsur to infuse its magic to become a tree man by itself. Of course, it has become the leader of many activated plants. The "Green Guard" formed with the "Tree Man" launched a fierce and cold counterattack against the invaders.
...
Joanne experienced too many accidents during this long day. The "Mythical Creature" originally sensed had not been found. Suddenly the village bell sounded the alarm, and from afar there was a shout of killing sound. It seemed that an enemy was coming.
Joan stood up from the tree, supported the branch and looked in the direction of the alarm bell. His eyes crossed the city wall and saw many figures rushing out of the northern forest, but he could not see the specific image of the attacker. There are cultists active near the village. He was hesitating whether to drop the tree to participate in the battle to guard the village. "Tears of God" suddenly issued a warning sign to remind him that another mythical creature was approaching quickly, and the myth level was one level higher than the one he had sensed before.
This sudden change prompted Joan to decide to stay on the tree and observe the situation. He was still wondering what is happening today. The mythical creatures that are usually rare are sent to the door like a collective appointment? Of course, he was eager to seize this opportunity to hunt mythical creatures and complete the first-order mythology trial. However, he also knew that his strength was low, and he was afraid that he could not compete with the upcoming mythical creatures and could only hide in the trees to find opportunities.
Thinking about this, Joan shrank toward the depths of the canopy, holding his breath nervously, watching the direction indicated by the mythological sensor, and not long after he saw a group of diners riding dinosaurs rushing into the woods, led by the ogre leader Wearing a golden helmet and holding a big stick, riding a giant bear wearing armor, the sturdy body is like an iron tower, and it is the second-order mythical creature detected by "tears of God". Seeing the other person's first glance, Joanne was convinced that it was the "King Shrek" Magni had mentioned, the Ogre Lord in the Deep Forest Valley.
Joan looked at the big mace of the mythical ogre that he carried in one hand, and he couldn't help wiping his cold sweat. It’s just that Shrek’s big stick is thicker than his waist, and he can smash his bones by smashing a stick at will. The most important thing at present is not considering the powerful mythical ogre, Instead, he managed to save his own life surrounded by a large group of ogres!
Just as Joan thought hard about how to escape, unexpected accidents followed one after another. First, "Old White" woke up and created the "Thorn Wall" to block the Ogre Army, and then cast a spell to activate the surrounding trees and launched a counterattack against the group of gangsters on the opposite side.
This series of accidents caused Joan to feel overwhelmed, until the black oak tree he was hiding in also lifted up and took a stride toward the ogre as a tree man. Suddenly the shock came from his feet and nearly drove Joan down from the tree. He quickly recovered and hugged a branch tightly, and was forced to join the tree man "Little Black" into the battlefield.
