Chapter 174 The Skeleton
?As Nathan stepped foot in the room, the 6 Guardian Treants immediately started attacking aggressively.
"GRAA!"
One of the Guardian Treant used its roots like a whip to attack him.
*Boom!*
Dodging to the side, Nathan keeps his eyes on the treants, watching their every movement.
"It might be because of the attributes brought by the Blade of Imprisoned Souls, but the movements of these Treants look slower than the last time I saw it."
Nathan immediately noticed the difference in the movements of the Treants from before and now.
Just like what he said, the Treants movement does indeed look slow in his eyes.
But this was only the result of equipping the blade in his hand and gaining an overwhelming difference in attributes compared to the Guardian Treants.
1 level difference in attributes can already result in great advantage in a fight.
What's more, a 10 level difference, right?
Seeing that Nathan dodged his attack, the Guardian Treant roared loudly.
"GROOOWWLLL!"
Immediately, the other five Guardian Treants also started moving.
The next second, 6 whip-like gigantic roots slashed at Nathan without mercy.
Like before, Nathan was still able to dodge everything easily with a relaxed attitude.
As if angered by that, the Guardian Treants roared in unison that shook the whole prison.
""GROAAARRR!!""
The next moment, sounds of woods snapping echoed.
Then Nathan saw those 6 Guardian Treants who were 'planted' on the ground slowly started uprooting themselves and used their roots as 'feets'.
Watching all this, Nathan just stood there and shook his head.
"Tsk tsk tsk, I did not expect that they would go as far as uprooting themselves just because I avoided those few attacks."
Sighing, Nathan started walking towards the Guardian Treants without hesitation.
"Well, I guess, I should stop playing around and end this fast. I still need to go down to get the sparks…"
Without care about those Guardian Treants, Nathan started warming up as they uprooted themselves slowly from the ground.
A few seconds later, the Guardian Treants succeeded in what they were doing and turned their attention back to Nathan.
Stopping what he's doing, Nathan looked back at the 6 pairs of hollow, wooden eyes that were staring at him.
Smiling, he said, "Are you guys finally done? I waited so that you firewoods since even the villains in those rainbow color Rangers even wait for them to transform.
"I don't want you all to tell me that I'm worse than them."
As a monster with high spirits, these Guardian Treants of course have intelligence.
Because of that, they understood the words that Nathan said.
Realizing that he is making fun of them, the Treants have gotten angrier than before.
? As if with one mind, they launched an attack from all sides, leaving him with no chance to dodge.
But instead of panicking, Nathan just looked at all this with a slight smile on his lips.
When the roots were about to hit him, at the last minute, Nathan suddenly swung his sword gently in the air, pointing at those 6 Guardian Treants that stood in front of him, side by side.
As if time stopped, the Guardian Treants' roots suddenly paused in mid air.
*Shiiiing!*
All of a sudden, a line of light flashed for a second.
*Boom!*
The next moment, the Guardian Treants suddenly started dropping down on the ground one by one causing a loud ruckus.
Their wooden bodies were now split in half and they lay there without any signs of life.
Just like that, Nathan ended the fight with the Treants without even letting them use their talents.
Looking at the thing he caused, there was no fluctuation in Nathan's heart.
"I don't have time to waste. Rest in peace." He muttered.
For him to suddenly say this when he was just playing around earlier, of course there is a reason.
Just a moment ago, Nathan saw through the drone that there was actually another terrorist attack in the city.
Learning that, he started to worry.
As long as anyone close to him is in the city, especially Natalie, it is inevitable that he will worry.
Because of that, he dropped his playful attitude and started thinking of getting the spark and getting back on the surface as fast as he can.
Thankfully, those terrorist that attacked this time only have the strength that is just slightly above the adult person.
As for why send this kind of person, Nathan doesn't know.
…
After killing the Guardian Treants, Nathan approached those huge trees laying on the ground.
Waving his hand, he stored those 6 Treant bodies in his storage.
After making sure all of the corpses were gone, Nathan did not linger in that room anymore and proceeded forward.
He approached the throne with a skeleton and went behind it.
"It really is here!"
Just like what was described on the map of the Threat Prison that Nathan found back in the control room,
A passage really exists in this room, hidden behind the throne.
It was a stairway that led downwards with its destination unknown.
Staring inside this path, Nathan only saw darkness that was not able to be illuminated by the light on this room.
There was also nothing on the stairwell that can be used to light up the way.
With no other choice, Nathan took out his phone and opened the flashlight function.
After taking a deep breath and letting it out, Nathan walked down the stairs without hesitation.
As he disappeared into the darkness, the corpse sitting on the throne that Nathan ignored the whole time showed signs of movements.
*Twitch.*
Then the next moment, blue fire suddenly lit up in the hollowed eye socket of the skeleton!
*Phhisssh!*
Next, a creepy aura started enveloping the room and seemed to turn everything to black!
Then the skeleton moved its head.
He turned to look at the stairs behind his throne.
The blue fire lighting his eyes flickered for a moment before disappearing once again.
Once the fire vanished, everything started turning back to normal and the skeleton became stationary just like it was before.
All of this is unknown to Nathan.
