Giant Strength Flower Demon Kenny and his clansmen were nearby as well. Looking at the corpses, he said furiously, "Chief Flander must have been captured. I will avenge him."
Mandin sneered and asked, "How?"
Kenny glared at Mandin and said, "Wasn't it because you forced us into this war? Otherwise, once our tree demons matured, we could have taken down the Underground City by ourselves."
"Tree demons?" Mandin looked at Kenny in surprise. "When did you make tree demons?"
Kenny suddenly realized something and said, "Oh no. Our tree demons are still hidden deep inside Nameless Mountain. If they're discovered, all our efforts will have been for nothing."
Mandin panicked and roared, "Why didn't you tell us about something like that sooner? Flander is a lunatic, an idiot, that damn bastard."
Wang Shijie frowned and asked, "What are tree demons? Are they strong?"
Mandin glared at Wang Shijie and said, "Obviously. Tree demons are Tier 3 creatures from birth. Kenny, tell me, how many tree demons are there?"
Kenny said frantically, "Around twenty-two. They should be born soon, but they're still extremely weak. They need to be taught how to fight and use magic. They can't join the war right away. We have to save these tree demons. They are our capital for retaking the Underground City."
Mandin was already furious beyond reason. He was enraged by Flander's selfishness and by Lu Yang's luck. The others did not know, but low-ranking Dark Demon Mandin, who had spent years in war, understood very clearly just how powerful tree demons were.
If they had had tree demons helping them from the start, there would have been no need for any sneak attack. They could have launched a frontal assault. Or, if Mandin had known about the tree demons, he would have waited
