Chapter 417: Under the Tree
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
"Boom!"
Fang Yuan pushed out his palm and a flash of lightning shot out, carrying with it what seemed to be all the wrath of heaven!
"Wind!"
Jani had a solemn look on his face and raised both his hands. A green wall of wind materialised around him.
"Bump!"
The lightning bolt and whirlwind collided and decimated each other with a bang. Except, the whirlwind fell apart faster than the lightning bolt did.
Seeing this, there was a drastic change in Jani's expression, and he tried to retreat promptly.
"Too weak! Too weak!"
"Zap!"
Fang Yuan strode forward with lightning flashing all around him. All the electricity fed the Lightning Armour he was wearing and caused it to increase in size until finally, a giant figure made out of electricity was created.
"Roar!"
The electric giant moved as though it was alive and waved his hand. In response, storm clouds began to gather and grow so much that they swallowed up the tornadoes summoned by Jani.
"Ah…"
Jani then fled without looking back.
To be able to control the regional weather all by himself! Jani finally realised the gulf between him and Fang Yuan.
The electric giant bellowed and swung out a palm towards Jani's back.
"Bang!"
The green shield protecting Jani was shattered and the bolts of lightning scorched his back.
"Impossible... how could there be a mutant this powerful in the world!"
Jani shrieked, and blood spurted from his mouth and nose. He ran past the boundary and out of the camp.
"Boss!"
In the near distance, the humongous werewolf had overturned a tank. It howled and ran on all fours to Jani's side.
"Let's go!"
Narissa transformed into a vampire bat and screamed.
"This God of Thunder... we are no match for him as of now!"
"I don't believe it. How can an amateur yellow monkey overcome us?"
The humongous wolf was not the brightest and seemed like it was going to continue challenging Fang Yuan.
'This is quite interesting. If Jani evolves one more time, he would be a good experimental subject... and this little wolf is about to die!'
Fang Yuan thoughts ended there and he waved his hand.
"Thunder, come!"
"Zap!"
A bolt of lightning fell from the sky and turn into a longsword that the electric giant armed itself with. The giant lunged forward.
"I am Jax, the most powerful of the werewolves!!!"
Jax shouted with all his might. His eyes were bloodshot and the hair on his skin was standing on edge. He seemed to went crazy at that moment and rushed forward aggressively.
"Poof!"
A flash of red.
The electric sword had impaled the werewolf and all his internal organs were fried in that instance.
"Bump!"
The werewolf fell to the ground and all its hair retracted to reveal a white-skinned man.
His eyes were filled with hatred, but all the energy had gone out of him and his hands went limp.
"God of Thunder...…"
Wu Tie came to Fang Yuan's side. His iron skin peeled back until he looked normal again.
"Jani has already left!"
Fang Yuan closed his eyes. He could no longer sense the presence of the other party.
After all, nothing could really stand in the way of wind-type mutants if they were intent on running away, unless Fang Yuan had pursued them doggedly at the very start.
"Besides this, the camp has two captives. They are probably spies from Japan. They will be under your charge!"
"Alright!"
Wu Tie did not know what else to say.
He had always found the giant werewolf very difficult to handle.
But with the coming of the God of Thunder, not only was the werewolf slain, but even the more powerful Jani and Narissa were forced to run away. Fang Yuan was truly incredible.
"By the way, God of Thunder, haven't you already gone deep into the fog?"
Wu Tie ordered his men to dispose of the werewolf corpse and asked his question.
"It's okay... if we rush over now, we can make it!"
Fang Yuan smiled charmingly in his disguise as a middle-aged handsome man. He then transformed into a lightning bolt and surged into the distance.
"So this is how powerful the Dragon Team Leader is?"
Wu Tie suddenly felt a wave of confidence. He then proceeded to clear up the damaged campsite and prepare for what was to come.
…...
"Hmm?"
As Fang Yuan rushed into the fog another time, he immediately sensed a difference.
"The density of the air... has decreased? Was it because of my duel with Jani that led it to contract? If this is the case, the tree is self-aware and can be considered a demon."
Fang Yuan kept his Lightning Armour on. Not even the white fog could penetrate it, much less the willow catkins. He travelled like a hurricane and arrived at the park.
He could hear the sound of fighting coming from ahead.
There were a number of monsters with tentacles, along with a disgusting enchanted tree tumour. It was a motley crew, and they began to attack the travelling cars.
A shimmering water curtain surrounded the cars and it was their only defence.
Another batch of creatures came in for the kill.
They were all humanoids, but they were very tall and muscular. They had living roots extending from their bodies, and they punched the water curtain repeatedly. The array shook every time they hit it.

"We can't hold on for much longer... these parasitic humanoids are too aggressive!"
At the heart of the array, the Daoist Guo Jing turned pale. He held a little flag in his hand and nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Where's the team leader? This is going to kill us!"
Red Sister called out agitatedly, and a blue mist emanated from her hands.
"Crack!"
Outside of the water curtain, a few parasitic humanoids instantly froze and turned into ice statues.
"Crack! Crack!"
After a few breaths, cracks began to appear on the ice, flesh and blood then exploded outwards. All that was left were skeletal structures made out of roots, they then quickly disappeared into the ground.
The Daoist Guo Jing was extremely disturbed by the sight.
'These demonic creatures... they seemed to have replaced the skeletal and nervous structures of their hosts with their own. The procedure of parasitism must be terribly painful... but its success would make them uncommonly strong!"
"Fire!"
At the side, Searing Flames screamed and spewed a stream of fire. All the parasitic humanoids that came into contact with it turned into fiery torches.
Most of the warriors got into formation with their guns and set up a line of defence with their firearms.
Even so, the alarming number of parasitic humanoids coming at them was threatening to overwhelm them.
Shortly after, the rows and rows of parasitic humanoids formed a thick wall surrounding the array and the travelling cars.
"If Boss still doesn't arrive, we are all going to die!"
Searing Flames began to cough violently after spewing several jets of fire in a row. He was also beginning to tire.
"The mutants outside are not to be underestimated. We must hold on…..."
The Daoist Guo Jing muttered ominously.
"Kachak!"
Suddenly, there was a flash of light.
A great electric field appeared and the outburst of energy caused many of the parasitic humanoids to fall.
"Boss!"
Seating Flames actually wept tears of joy.
"You are finally here!"
"I sensed that there was danger here."
Fang Yuan strolled forward, the lightning crackling all over his body.
"Bang!"
A layer of mud on the ground exploded outwards without warning and a large python charged towards Fang Yuan.
When it was 3 metres away from him, a bolt of lightning appeared and struck out at the python.
"Crack!"
The large snake trembled and spontaneously combusted until it turned to ash.
"This willow tree is strong in terms of its reach and survivability. It is also a model for the parasitic humanoids. However, its individual strength is nothing special!"
Fang Yuan shook his head. But he was aware that it had more to do with his arrival.
Anyone else would have died in the face of an attack by the parasitic humanoid army.
"Boss!"
As Fang Yuan entered the array, three of his followers surrounded him happily.
"How are the casualties?"
"Manageable. The most pressing issue is that the ammunition does not work on those parasitic humanoids. A few of the warriors are dead and some were victims of parasitism. We've already injected them with medicine…"
Although Professor Chen had prescribed poison, victims of parasitism might keep their lives if they were injected with it shortly after.
Of course, if they had not been victims of parasitism, they would die within ten seconds of coming into contact with it.
"Mm, let's go!"
Fang Yuan commanded the travelling cars to stay together and led the way. The group managed to smash open the big door and steered into the park slowly.
When the fog cleared slightly, Guo Jing and company saw a great willow tree that had virtually blocked out the sun. Its overflowing branches looked like dragons and its trunk stretched up into the heavens. The willow branches draped down like curtains and the catkins danced about in the wind.
"Wow... so this is the thousand year old willow tree? It is huge!"
"Damn it, all our electrical devices are not working!"
A warrior shouted.
"Does this mean that we cannot use the remote-controlled explosives, but can only demolish it at close range?"
Searing Flames looked up at what seemed like infinite catskins and he felt his scalp go numb.
"Tsktsk... if I could acquire the core of the tree, I would definitely be able to carve out a magic tool!"
Guo Jing was fantasising about this magic tool when his facial expression suddenly changed.
"What is that?"
From the foundations of the tree, translucent figures began to emerge. There were men and women, old and young. The fog was dense and they had blank looks on their faces. Suddenly, they looked over.
Their focused gazes were immensely unsettling.
"This is... the people who had once inhabited this area... spirits? Demons?"
Red Sister felt a chill in her bones.
"This demonic tree can even enslave spirits?"
Fang Yuan immediately chided his men.
"What are you guys yammering about? These so-called spirits are but manifestations of electric waves and magnetic fields... the willow tree acts as a medium that allows the magnetic fields to appear, that's all!"
Fang Yuan went on.
"The failure of our electrical devices has everything to do with the large magnetic field of the willow tree. From now on, I want everyone to remain calm, because when we enter enemy territory, our senses might be assailed by all sorts of illusions…"
As Fang Yuan spoke, he stamped a foot on the ground.
"Crack!"
A hole was blown into the ground.
Following that, they could see a large parasitic rat head that had been charred by the explosion.
Guo Jing and company could not help but let out cold breaths of air.
The implications were clear. To come into contact with the tree, they all had to face illusions and evil spirits, not to mention possible ambushes from the parasitic beasts!
The difficulty of their mission was insane!
