Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence-Chapter 424 - 176: Gael Regon’s Terrifying Memories Beneath Heisen Castle

The downfall of Ugma’s River Giant Warband and the immense River Giant Witch had a far greater impact than Su Li and Oerstein had anticipated.

When the blood-soaked battleground’s mountain of corpses and sea of blood remnants were discarded into the Black Water River like stray dog’s bodies, a fierce argument and angry roars erupted among the leaders of the Monster Legion within the forest sanctuary east of the Black Water River plain.

The Thorn Throne of the Green Dragon is actually quite close to Heisen Castle, located in the Jade Garden Forest east of the Bauhinia noble pasture. Here, beech, oak, and pine once grew, being an important source of territory barrels.

The ancient ruins remaining inside have been cleared out, and the giant scorpions, Night Wanderer Corpses, and Beastskin People that once hid inside have all been cleared out.

Then High Tier Druid Edmond used the Divine Magic [Create Holy Forest] to turn this place into a beautiful sanctuary of the Dawn Goddess.

When the Green Dragon Legion attacked, the priests and nuns of the Dawn Church directed people from the suburbs and pastures to retreat to the city, leaving this beautiful religious sanctuary in place.

The Druids believe that the monsters from the forest would not destroy this beautiful sanctuary.

They were indeed half correct. After Tree Demon Gael Regon’s troops arrived here, they built it into a perfect forest camp. A large number of vines grew, making it the most solid and reliable camp for the tree demons, whose hand-to-hand combat abilities in the Holy Forest might not even be weaker than those of a formal Knight.

And there were over 5,000 of these tree demons just in this Holy Forest alone.

Thus, if they entered the forest to fight in certain specific dominions of the monsters, humans would not find it easy to win. The difficulty is no less than the monsters attacking human castles. After all, every race has its own unique defensive advantages.

However, humans were fortunate that these monsters suffered from severe internal conflict.

This beautiful forest, the powerful fortification of the tree demons, was largely destroyed when the Chaos Monster Chimera Skaros entered, just because the vines made it uncomfortable. The dragon head of Skaros spewed fiery breath, turning a large expanse of the forest, vines, and vegetation into chaos. The surface erupted with flame-like lava remnants just to satisfy Skaros’s need for a comfortable sleeping place.

While in the forest, Gael Regon and Skaros had a fierce dispute over its burning of the trees.

Now this beautiful [Holy Forest] has been regarded as its precious palace by Tree Demon Gael Regon. After another large area was destroyed by Skaros, compounded by dissatisfaction with Skaros’s performance on today’s battlefield, Gael Regon’s anger directly erupted.

This resentful massive tree demon had no patience for tolerance, nor did it grant any face to anyone. In this Holy Forest, it was the master with all the home field advantage, so it roared furiously and fought fiercely with Skaros.

"You despicable crawler, your vile stench makes me nauseous. Today you were on the battlefield, so why did you just coldly stand by while the entire River Giant Warband was annihilated and not help? You’re hesitant against humans but dare to act arrogantly in the forest. Do you think I can’t tear off your wings?"

With its roar, thick vines bound to Skaros’s body like iron chains, almost piercing its hardened scales and tearing off its wings alive.

In this Holy Forest, the magic of the tree demons is greatly enhanced by the Wind of Jilun. The Chaos Monster Skaros howled in pain yet could not break free from these vines’ restraints.

Excruciating pain ignited Skaros’s rage greatly. It stretched its three heads frantically, biting at Gael Regon’s body, ripping off large amounts of branches and vines from the tree demon’s body.

Then, at Gael Regon’s bloody wound, Skaros’s raptor head pecked out a large hole, then the lion head bit the tree demon’s body, allowing the dragon head to aim directly at the wound and violently spew a terrifying dragon breath into it.

This fiery dragon breath’s lethality was unbearable even for a Divine Chosen level monster. Gael Regon’s body seemed to catch fire, collapsing with a rumble, uprooting massive rocks and dust, and knocking down dozens of giant trees.

Then Skaros decisively used [Ancient Giant Dragon’s Blessing], granting it a Steel Body for a dozen seconds, forcibly snapping the numerous thick chains binding it.

But it dared not stay on the ground any longer, immediately flapping its giant wings to fly up, dodging the huge vines rushing from all directions in the forest.

In the Holy Forest, Gael Regon is virtually unbeatable. With its feet on the ground, it is as if it gains a strengthened version of Divine Chosen level [Blood of the Earth], able to continuously heal its injuries. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

But Skaros’s [Ancient Giant Dragon’s Blessing] has usage intervals, making it clearly at a disadvantage if the fight continues.

Green Dragon Aeliria and its loyal henchman, Elemental Giant Bear Ostanka, observed their two combatants coldly from the Thorn Throne.

To humans, this was an unimaginable scene. In an extremely crucial confrontation where unity mattered most, the most important leaders of the military were not unified. Instead, they fought fiercely in front of all the monsters, causing the earth to shake and a large expanse of trees to collapse.
