章 108: Woodland Chaos in Serenity Peak

As the 2nd-order isolation barrier enveloped Serenity Peak, it could be called serene no more.

A palpable sense of panic descended upon its streets like a shroud of darkness.

The barrier severed the city's connection with the rest of Martial World Sharang, leaving its inhabitants trapped within its confines.

Amidst the chaos, screams pierced the air as citizens scrambled to comprehend the gravity of the situation.

Frantic footsteps echoed through the winding alleys, mingling with the sounds of breaking glass and crumbling masonry. People rushed to secure their homes and loved ones, their faces etched with fear and uncertainty.

Amidst the chaos, humanoid figures emerged from the dense foliage, their forms a grotesque fusion of human and tree spirit. With limbs composed of twisting vines and branches, they moved slowly as if zombies, their wooden torsos shifting and creaking with each deliberate step.
