In the chaos, from the fruit that had fallen into the mud, a monster with pink skin, White Bone Shards, and a wooden weapon crawled out.
This monster uses leaves as hair and White Bone Shards as armor. Once it appears, it doesn't need anyone to organize it; it immediately charges at any mobile enemy in its vicinity.
More and more fruit was falling from the tree roots, and soon the number of fruit exceeded the number of troops present.
Faced with this situation, Grand Princess Anna said dismissively, "The main force should ignore these things and attack the tree roots directly. Be careful not to get controlled by the Red Silk Thread."
Grand Princess Anna's orders were directed at the Elite Troops.
As for the miscellaneous soldiers who followed along the battlefield, Princess Anna had no intention of giving them any orders.
The grunts knew their role from the beginning, and while clearing the river, they set up defensive lines according to their respective situations.
When these small monsters, composed of fruit and White Bone Shards, appeared, they quickly stepped forward to fight them.
These Fruit Monster aren't particularly strong; they're just quite numerous.
Gu Xi, who had been observing the battle from the rear, quickly took out paper and pen and drew a diagram of the defensive lines set up by these miscellaneous troops.
These are all real experiences, the most readily available answers.
Next time the instance restarts, just copy the strategy.
Gu Xi quickly drew out the battle scene, noting down what he could pick, what was difficult to copy, and what he couldn't do.
During the battle between the minions and the Fruit Monster, Gu Xi noticed that after the Fruit Monster were killed and fell to the ground, they would turn into saplings growing on the ground.
It then absorbed nutrients from the silt and quickly grew into a small tree as tall as a person.
These saplings also possess offensive capabilities.
They simply switched from close combat to stationary ranged combat.
These saplings would constantly sprout spike-like vines to attack the minions.
If you pay close attention, you can dodge the spikes that pop up from the ground.
However, as the number of these small trees increased, the soldiers were unable to dodge them all.
Some of the grunts were already wounded in the enemy's defensive line.
Meanwhile, Anna's side was still attacking the eight tree roots hanging from the ceiling.
Compared to the single Apple Tree Gu Xi faced before, Anna and her companions were now facing eight tree roots simultaneously, making it an incredibly dangerous situation.
These tree roots also coordinate with each other; as each one falls, another root will lift it up to prepare for the next wave of attack.
The force with which the tree roots struck down from above was considerable; Gu Xi had to use Flame Trap to blast the roots off.
Grand Princess Anna would never stoop to using such methods.
She arranged two different Knight Squad, as main and off-tanks, to draw the attention of the tree roots.
At the same time, it provides cover for the attacks of the wizards and archers.
Unlike before, when Gu Xi used Skeleton Archer and Skeleton Mage, he could only deal a few points of damage.
The old wizard and his archer's henchmen successfully broke through the defenses of the Spore Cultist Charlie.
Even from behind, Gu Xi could see that every time Spore Cultist Charlie appeared, a large number of numbers like -10 would appear.
In particular, Spore Cultist Charlie's life bar has been reduced by half.
This left Gu Xi somewhat helpless.
If he could bring five level 10 necromancers in, this battle should be much easier.
Unfortunately, Gu Xi only wanted to come in by himself.
With his current strength, when facing the Spore Cultist Charlie, the only option is for the Death Avatar to step in.
Afterwards, Gu Xi needs to consider whether Shaya can come and fight, as her abilities should be able to break through the defenses of the Spore Cultist Charlie.
Gu Xi was pondering a plan to deal with Spore Cultist Charlie.
The old wizard, who hadn't made a move until now, was also preparing his spell.
This old wizard was one that Gu Xi had always paid special attention to.
The reason he was noticed was not because the old wizard had a particularly conspicuous light bulb-like staff in his hand.
Rather, it was because he hadn't made a move since the Spore Cultist Charlie started attacking; he had just been holding his staff, doing something inexplicable.
Several times the tree roots nearly hit the old wizard's head, but they were blocked by other powerful figures, and even by Grand Princess Anna.
Therefore, Gu Xi guessed that this person was definitely preparing to unleash a major move.
However, Gu Xi observed for a long time, but the old wizard did not make a move. Gu Xi thought he was just there to act as a third wheel.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the old wizard moved, raising his staff with both hands, and a beam of white light shot towards Spore Cultist Charlie in the middle of the tree roots.
Gu Xi noticed that the white light gave off a feeling somewhat like the Death Avatar, the Death Dragon Breath.
It may be less powerful, but it is significantly more durable.
Because it was a beam of light, and because Spore Cultist Charlie no way to dodge, the attack hit him instantly.
As the beam of light struck down, the tree roots that were striking downwards quickly retracted, seemingly trying to protect the Spore Cultist Charlie.
At the same time, Gu Xi could clearly see that the health bar above Spore Cultist Charlie's head was rapidly shrinking.
It's clear that this attack hit the mark.
That's a good option.
The thought flashed through Gu Xi's mind.
Next time we come to fight the final boss, we'll send out the Death Avatar immediately.
No, the Death Avatar needs to be strengthened further.
The current Death Avatar: Death Dragon Breath is still somewhat weak; we need to see if there's a way to strengthen it again.
With this in mind, Gu Xi quickly jotted down his discovery in his notebook.
At the same time, he was calculating the old wizard's strength and the difference between the power of this move and the Death Dragon Breath.
Ten thousand lives would require at least two uses of Death Dragon Breath, and it's unknown whether the Death Avatar and the Spore Cultist Charlie can even fight.
Watching the battle below, Gu Xi was already calculating how to better utilize the Death Avatar.
If he weren't currently without the authority to act, he would have wanted to release the Death Avatar to test how much damage the Death Dragon Breath could inflict on Spore Cultist Charlie.
After all, only real data can make Gu Xi clearly understand the gap between himself and his enemies.
Just then, the monsters below changed once again.
The minions finally managed to cut down all the saplings that had turned into monsters, but after the saplings fell, they mutated again.
This time, the sapling's corpses actually came together to form a giant Mud Monster made up of trees, corpses, and silt.
