Chapter 137: First Death

Just as the Ghost-Wood Vine hit the ground, it sprung back up again. Thick vines jumped out at Dumby like snakes striking at prey.

In the blink of an eye, Dumby was completely wrapped up in vines, looking as though it had transformed into a tree demon.

Each vine crisscrossed and rubbed against each other, trying to crush Dumby into pieces. At the same time, it triangular-shaped leaves ran against Dumby's bones like little blades, giving off a raspy shaaashaaa sound. The leaves of the Ghost-Wood Vine were extremely sharp, each leaf acting like a circular saw.

Normally, when hunting prey, the Ghost-Wood Vine would use its vines to envelop the enemy and then use its sharp, knife-like leaves to lacerate the enemy until it either bled to death or its bones and organs were crushed by the pressure of the constricting vines.

But against Dumby, it seemed both of its killer moves were extremely ineffective.
