Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies Chapter 1391: Realm of the Forest

The Sword in the Tree's offensive capabilities weren't particularly formidable.

As a wooden weapon, it wasn't sharp, nor did it amplify superhuman abilities.

But it would bring endless trouble to its opponents.

Whether it was the vines that could rapidly grow to cover an entire city upon touching the earth, or the terrifying defensive power and self-healing capabilities of its thick fibers, it became the natural nemesis of reinforcement-type superhumans who relied on sharp weapons as their primary combat method.

What it feared was fire.

But not from Chidorian.

In other words, with the Sword in the Tree in hand, Lancelot had not only closed the gap in their superhuman ability index difference but had also gained the upper hand in terms of attribute suppression.

Now, the roles of offense and defense had reversed.

Lancelot wielded the Sword in the Tree, carrying Agravain with him, and began launching a frenzied assault on Chidorian.

The Sword in the Tree absorbed Lancelot's power and began rapidly spreading and growing across the ground.

These towering trees, with vines several meters thick and hundreds of meters long, twisted and coiled across the earth like green dragons.

Chidorian swung his massive sword, cleaving through over a dozen vines in a single strike, but after he cut them, new vines quickly grew back.

As long as there was earth beneath, it could grow endlessly until the wielder of the Sword in the Tree exhausted their superhuman energy.

Lancelot darted through the dense forest, the vines creating significant trouble for the enormous Chidorian while allowing Lancelot himself to move freely.

Taking advantage of the moments when the vines hindered Chidorian, he launched sneak attacks.

"Thwack!"

The two swords clashed, and the Sword in the Tree quickly extended countless vines that wrapped around Chidorian's war blade.

This sent a chill down Chidorian's spine.

He forcefully yanked his sword free, but Lancelot wouldn't give him a chance. He pressed forward relentlessly, attacking like a madman!

The Sword in the Tree grew enormous, matching the size of Chidorian's war blade, with terrifying defensive power and maximum restraining attributes.

This caused immense frustration for Chidorian, who excelled only in close combat.

He slashed again and again, cutting through countless vines, but the regenerative nature of plants was no joke.

Adding to that, the surroundings had already become a sea of giant trees, with vines constantly surging from all directions to attack his body.

Soon, Chidorian's ankles, wrists, and torso were all entangled by the vines.

"AHHHHHH!!!!!"

The Grand General of Nasha finally let out a furious roar. He erupted with full force, and the shockwave of energy shattered all the vines within several kilometers!

Even Lancelot was sent flying.

After unleashing that move, the ground around him finally cleared.

But soon, rustling sounds came from all directions again.

Thick, green vines, like venomous snakes, surged in from every direction he could see!

Chidorian's expression completely changed.

He didn't fear a direct battle, but this kind of agonizing torment was breaking his spirit.

Gritting his teeth, he slowly crouched down, then explosively propelled himself into the distant sky like a rocket!

"Running? Don't think it's that easy!"

"Chaos has already dealt with his problem, so how could I, Lancelot, lose to him?!?!"

Lancelot laughed arrogantly, raising the Sword in the Tree high as if commanding the world. The vines that had already blanketed a large portion of the city all rose in unison, then shot into the sky like ten thousand arrows!

Chidorian couldn't fly, after all. No matter how high he leaped, he would eventually fall.

The vines wrapped around his limbs midair, and unable to exert force, he was forcibly dragged down by countless vines!

Seeing this, Lancelot stepped onto a thick vine and charged straight toward him.

With his opponent in midair, wasn't this the perfect moment to strike?

Chidorian grabbed a vine in the air and yanked it, breaking free from the binding prison.

But there were thousands of vines here. He couldn't break them all, and the more he struggled, the worse it got.

While he was suspended in midair, Lancelot had already arrived.

He raised the enormous Sword in the Tree high, and it instantly grew to several hundred meters in length!

Then, aiming at Chidorian's head, he smashed down with full force!

A heavy sword has no edge; great skill appears clumsy.

The Sword in the Tree had no blade, but no one could withstand this strike.

Deprived of any foothold, Chidorian couldn't exert his full strength. Even though he blocked with his sword, he was still viciously hit.

"BOOM!!!!"

He crashed like a cannonball into the sea of vines, completely swallowed by them.

This time, there was no escape!

Lancelot laughed wildly and dove headfirst downward.

Here, in this ocean of trees, it was his territory.

Chidorian was utterly finished!

Though he was powerful, with the momentum gone, his abilities were severely restricted.

Lancelot battled him for a full half hour before finally managing to kill him.

Looking around, the entire sixth layer of Nasha's abyssal realm had been destroyed, with green plants covering every inch.

Chidorian's massive body was tightly bound by hundreds of enormous trees, leaving only a pale white head visible on the trunk.

Hundreds of wounds had been opened on the trees, with blood flowing out like spring water, greedily absorbed by the Sword in the Tree.

Lancelot panted heavily, thrust the Sword in the Tree into the ground, and collapsed onto the tree roots to rest.

This battle had exhausted him—he was nearly to the point of weakness.

But victory was truly sweet.

Once he absorbed Chidorian's origin, he might just step into the Black Chariot level.

Then, he could hope to compete with the Round Table Knights' second-in-command, the Court Magician, Merlin.

As for the leader of the Round Table Knights, King Arthur, Arthur Pendragon?

That was someone he wouldn't even dare to think about challenging.

At least, not for now.

...

In two battlefields, Zhang Yi versus Samba Miu and Lancelot versus Chidorian, both ended in victory for the human faction.

This put immense pressure on the Nasha generals in the other two battlefields.

The duel between Lie and the Lord of the Charnel Ground was the most intense and dangerous.

As a fire-type superhuman, Lie's close-combat prowess surpassed even Chidorian's, and anything struck by his fists would carry his power and explode violently.

However, with the support of the esoteric sect's power, the Lord of the Charnel Ground was equally exceptional in melee combat.

Moreover, his self-healing ability, sustained by the faith of the esoteric sect, continuously flowed from the Sangha Monastery.

The two were evenly matched, locked in a bitter struggle, and the entire city block they fought in had long been reduced to rubble.
