Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 41: Chapter 40: Lord Hunter

Between the Endless Wasteland and the Wasteland Wilderness, there is also a forest.

To reach the Wasteland Wilderness, you must pass through the forest.

Lin You had long been accustomed to this, leading the Plant Legion through the forest with great momentum.

The three Wood Demon Dragons he brought with him flew in the sky, taking on the task of reconnaissance.

Through spiritual communication, Lin You could quickly receive information from the Wood Demon Dragons. As soon as any abnormality was detected, he could respond immediately, avoiding chaos.

And it was true.

The presence of the Wood Demon Dragons made Lin You’s exploration and reconnaissance work much easier, and very efficient.

Walking and stopping along the way, he easily discovered the demons hidden around and dealt with them effortlessly.

In just an hour, he smoothly passed through the forest, arriving at a scorched wasteland.

At the same time, behind a stone mountain in the distance, three figures hiding immediately fixed their gaze on him.

“Big brother! Someone’s coming!”

These three people had been lying in wait here since early morning, specifically ambushing the lords passing by to seize the resources they carried.

In just one morning, countless people had died at their hands, making them utterly ruthless characters.

Especially the scar-faced man called big brother, whose level had reached Tier Five, accompanied by ten large Tier Five two-headed leopards.

Even the two underlings beside him each had five insect-type lady spiders and five undead-type skeleton rangers accompanying them.

A total of twenty Tier Fives!

This kind of strength was rare among all lords, and they quietly hid behind the huge rock, waiting for Lin You to get closer.

But they didn’t notice.

In the sky hundreds of meters high, three shadows were flying back and forth, already locking onto their position.

“Lord Hunter, huh?”

As Lin You advanced, a barely perceptible cold smile appeared on his lips. He didn’t immediately expose them but pretended to be oblivious, gradually approaching the stone mountain.

“He’s coming! Looks like a Plant Type!”

A low voice from one of the underlings beside the scar-faced man said.

“Plant Type?” The scar-faced man frowned, as if recalling something, but then he coldly said, “Doesn’t matter if it’s Plant Type or whatever type, with so few species, just kill him!”

In his view, Lin You had only about a dozen species by his side. Even if they were all Tier Fives, their numbers couldn’t compare to his side, so there was nothing to worry about.

But is that really the case?

Of course not.

Because before discovering these figures, Lin You had already hidden the smaller Lingxi and the Wood Demons on the Tree Spirit Leader, making them invisible to the naked eye.

Plus the three Wood Demon Dragons flying in the sky, there were exactly twenty-five, five more than them.

The three unaware people observed Lin You’s movements through the gaps.

When Lin You reached a position less than thirty meters away from them, their expressions turned fierce.

“Go! Surround him!”

As the voice fell, the three split into two groups, encircling Lin You from both sides.

The five gigantic lady spiders were even faster than the eye could follow, spewing several strands of poisonous web straight at Lin You!

“Finally lost patience?”

Lin You sneered, flipped over, and dodged the webs.

Meanwhile, the ten two-headed leopards led by the scar-faced man charged at his side, turning into afterimages, pouncing at him ferociously.

They actually understood to first eliminate him, the crucial lord.

If it were an ordinary person, they might have been scared stiff by this sudden attack, left at their mercy.

But Lin You was different, having already taken precautions.

Without needing to give any orders, countless vines appeared at his side, instantly binding the charging two-headed leopards and tossing them away.

A few that were fast enough to avoid the vines were blocked by the massive body of the Tree Spirit Leader, with several thuds of collision. The Tree Spirit Leader’s body was torn open with large gashes, almost crippling it.

Such powerful attacks, truly worthy of Tier Five beast-type species.

Fortunately, Lingxi led the Wood Demons to wield their Magic Staffs, using Healing Techniques on it, barely closing the wounds.

“They actually blocked it?”

In the distance, the scar-faced man watched in shock, not expecting Lin You to react so swiftly, fending off their surprise attack.

It’s important to know that his two-headed leopards were known for their speed. Ordinary species couldn’t keep up with them, let alone block them all.

Meanwhile.

The attacks from the two underlings were also closely following.

The spider web binding from the lady spiders fell from above, skeleton rangers’ arrows pierced the air, almost sealing all of Lin You’s retreat routes.

Such skilled coordination indicated this wasn’t their first time doing this.

Lin You’s inner heart grew colder.

He drew out a bone saber from his waist, deflecting one of the arrows. The others were blocked by another Tree Spirit Leader, which was blown open with several large gaps, stepping back a few steps.

However, it had inherited the Grass and Wood Protection Skill from the Plant Elemental Spirit, so it didn’t suffer any fatal injuries.

The spider webs above were also cut into countless pieces by the leaves controlled by Lingxi and the Wood Demons, falling to the ground.

Effortlessly deflecting their combined assault.

“Everyone, attack! Finish him off!”

After repeatedly failing to take down Lin You, the three men finally became angry and embarrassed, directly ordering their species to swarm again and attack Lin You.

“Hmph! You think I’m easy to bully?”

Lin You let out a cold snort, no longer holding back.

Vines shot out from the nearby Pink Demoness, rushing to meet the enemy species.

At the same time, Lingxi and the Wood Demons surrounded themselves with a green aura, binding the leading few two-headed leopards with thorns. Two Blast Mushrooms leaped forward, hurling a handful of red mushrooms at them.

“Boom boom boom——”

Deafening explosions instantly blasted those two-headed leopards away, forcing the remaining leopards to retreat under the powerful shockwaves.

On the other side, the lady spiders and skeleton rangers became entangled with the vines, fighting fiercely.

But the next second, several earth spikes suddenly protruded from beneath their feet, piercing through their bodies.

The nearby vines seized the opportunity, quickly piercing through their heads.

In the blink of an eye, more than half of their species were annihilated, leaving bodies strewn across the ground.

“How is this possible!”

The scar-faced man’s eyes burned with rage, completely stunned by the unexpected outcome.

His two underlings had fear written all over their faces, hastily retreating.

Just then.

A piercing sound suddenly came from above.

As they looked up, they saw three afterimages flying toward them at an unimaginable speed.

“Puff!!”

The wings of the Wood Demon Dragons sliced through their necks, directly penetrating them.

The three men’s bodies shuddered in unison, standing motionless on the spot.

Gradually, blood streaks appeared on their necks.

They tried to cover them with their hands, but ultimately their vision went dark, and they collapsed heavily to the ground.

Along with their remaining species, they all let out mournful cries and perished on the spot.
