章 279: Disrupted Clues

— (Hahaha! Such incredible power! This is the might of a Tier 3 creature!)

The treant reveled in its success, having ensnared the young girl with great satisfaction! 

At this moment, it felt like a mighty wolf, having firmly trampled the helpless chick beneath its feet.

Seizing the opportunity while the girl was immobilized, the treant extended its usually concealed, highly toxic branches. With a single prick, the neurotoxic venom would render her lifeless within minutes.

— (Spare me no blame, girl.)

— (In this Aqua Nest, the law of the jungle reigns supreme!)

The treant steadily approached the girl, constantly regenerating its roots faster than she could sever them, ensuring her delicate feet remained bound to the ground.

However, just as it closed in to within five meters, the treant suddenly felt a sharp pain in its leg, causing it to lose balance and topple forward.

— (What... what happened?!)
