Of course, that was the advantage of his sudden attack, from here on he needed to devise other tactics. But in fact, Brand had already had a plan. After successfully landing a hit, he immediately sheathed his sword and retreated. Of course, those vine-like monsters would not let it go having lost their companions. Three Magic Tree People instantly roared and followed him.
Brand was waiting for this moment——as they chased him down a narrow path, the three vine monsters instinctively lined up in a row to pass through one by one——but what awaited them was the silver ring in Brand’s hand, gleaming faintly.
Frey heard a terrifying explosion come from her left rear side, she knew it was the sound of Brand’s success. She couldn’t help but relax a bit, and at that moment she noticed the enemy in front of her froze, hit by the massive sound blast.
As a young girl from Buqi countryside, she couldn’t understand how great the impact of that sound was on the sound-sensitive Magic Tree People——the enormous noise almost completely deprived them of their ability to judge the external world, as if the whole world was filled with blinding white light, leaving nothing but emptiness.
But she knew this was an opportunity, and that was enough. She raised the longsword that was so corroded it was nearly broken, and slashed it hard at the Magic Tree Person’s legs.
The brief battle seemed to come to a halt with this strike——
With a crisp clang, the tall figure of the Magic Tree Person split into two segments along with her longsword. Frey could hardly believe she succeeded. She opened her mouth slightly, and then she saw Romantic, panting heavily, holding a Black Steel Sword from Madara standing opposite her.
"Frey, so-so sorry, Brand asked me to help you..."
The girl smiled: "It’s alright, thank you."
When Brand emerged from behind the stone cape, he saw this scene and couldn’t help but be taken aback. He initially thought Frey might throw a massive tantrum, but to his surprise, her reaction wasn’t intense at all.
In fact, his arrangement wasn’t solely to relieve Frey’s pressure but also for tactical considerations. Because the key to this ambush lay on this ponytailed girl’s side, the entire Magic Tree Person patrol unit’s focus was on their commander—an adult Magic Tree Person, and the rearward Magic Tree People responsible for vigilance.
As long as he could hold off the vigilant Magic Tree People, Brand could easily ambush and kill the adult one and divert the remaining Magic Tree People to carry out the plan. Rather than giving the opponent the opportunity to set up and counterattack. Otherwise, with six long-range monsters, even if Brand’s level increased by five, he might not be able to protect Frey and Romantic completely.
Yet, he was worried about how to explain, unexpectedly, Frey seemed to have already understood.
"Why hasn’t the Golden Tree moved?" The future Valkyrie saw him and asked, "Can it not move?"
Brand was stunned, then woke up from his thoughts. He shook his head, the Golden Magic Tree was not motionless, in fact, on the contrary, the moment they attacked and caught the attention of the Golden Magic Tree, the terrible creature’s counterattack had already started.
"We have one minute, let me explain how to deal with the Golden Magic Tree. You must listen carefully if you do not want your souls to be forever confined within the Golden Tree." He said.
