Chapter 233 The Heart of The Tree of Life (II)

Lord Aymon grinned, thinking he managed to beat Klaus. However, his smile quickly faded. He stared at Klaus, his eyes now two black dots, and his expression turned frightening. At the same time, Klaus radiated a dark aura, filling the room with a tense atmosphere.

Watching the horror of his opponent, Lord Aymon gulped.

"You've crossed the line, Lord Aymon," Klaus said with a cold tone. He then touched Lord Aymon's chest with dark energy, and the elf was thrown against the wall with his sword.

Floating in the air, Klaus filled the entire room with darkness, turning it into a gloomy and frightening world. Even the Tree of Life's heart was affected, pulsating rapidly as if it would explode.

Lauriel trembled in fear, realizing that the vision from her dreams was coming true. She quickly knelt before Klaus, tears streaming down her face. She begged desperately, "Please, forgive us."

However, Klaus didn't listen. His anger had already consumed him. He never gave others a second chance after granting the first.

Lord Aymon struggled to get up from the floor. Even though he had only been hit once, his body throbbed with pain. "It's no use, Your Grace," he gasped. "We must be ready to fight. No matter what choice we make, that man will destroy our forest."

On the other side, Lauriel was still in fear, "Shut up! Put down your sword and quickly kneel down!" Her voice sounded desperate as she was overwhelmed by the increasingly tense situation.

However, Lord Aymon shook his head. "I can't, Your Grace. Look at him now. He's made up his mind."

The darkness continually emitted by Klaus was affecting the entire room, especially the Tree of Life. Its heart pulsed harder as if it would explode at any moment. The previously sturdy and strong walls of the room began to turn brittle, and a foul odor began to fill the air.

At that moment, Lauriel finally realized that there was no other choice but to fight. She then reluctantly retrieved a small staff hidden beneath her skirt and was ready for the worst.

"Good. Now, I have no other reason to let you live," Klaus smirked.

Hearing the threat, Lauriel and Lord Aymon swallowed hard.

"I will protect you; use your power to kill him," Lord Aymon whispered.

Lauriel nodded in response.

The inevitable battle finally began. Starting his attack, Lord Aymon lunged at Klaus, and his sword gleamed brightly, creating a circle of light that protected them from the darkness. At the same time, he swung his sword.

"Take this!"

Three moon-shaped beams of light pierced the darkness and headed for its source. However, they vanished in an instant as the dark hand absorbed them.nOve/lb/In

Slash! Slash! Slash! The sword cut horizontally, cleaving through the darkness.

"This is your punishment," Klaus muttered.

"Aarrgghh!"

Lord Aymon screamed in pain and despair as if the life energy within him were being sucked out. His body shrank, his skin wrinkled, and his hair turned gray. Lord Aymon slowly aged and, with frozen eyes and a weak body, he eventually fell, like a withered leaf falling from a tree.

Lauriel was hysterical as she witnessed her right hand taking his last breath before her eyes.

"No! Lord Aymon!" she cried out.

"Calm down," Klaus said. "You will follow him soon."

Naturally, Lauriel was shocked. She then tried to run away but stumbled and fell.

As she attempted to crawl away, Klaus pounced on her and directed the dark energy at this elf woman. Lauriel screamed in pain, feeling her strength being drained.

"Argh! Please! I don't want to die!"

As the dark energy filled Lauriel's body, she felt herself growing weaker and her skin starting to wrinkle. She gasped, trying to hold onto the last remnants of her strength, but her efforts were in vain. In the end, Lauriel met the same fate as Lord Aymon.

However, there was an oddity with her body. It had originally been small, like that of a child, but now it appeared as the body of an adult. Seeing this change in her body, Klaus snorted.

"Even until the very end, you still clung to your lies, huh."

In truth, Lauriel never showed her true form to Klaus. She had disguised herself as a child to gain Klaus' sympathy, but it had ultimately failed.

"I don't know what kind of magic you used, but I applaud you for deceiving me."

Klaus shifted his attention to the Tree of Life's heart. He walked toward it. When he touched it, it pulsed intensely. Then, he pierced the membrane layer and seized the elf woman inside. He quickly pulled the body away, breaking it free from its connection to the Tree of Life.

As the woman's body separated from the Tree of Life, a horrifying scream echoed throughout the room. However, it was only the beginning of the disaster that was about to unfold.

Not long after, an incredibly powerful earthquake suddenly struck, shaking the entire forest. Trees that had stood for thousands of years suddenly collapsed, causing chaos in the elf village. Villagers rushed in a panic, trying to save themselves before falling trees could kill them.

At the same time, a notification appeared on the smartlink.

[Anomaly Source has been eradicated. The dungeon will soon be sealed!]
