My Runes Can Be Upgraded Chapter 20

020 Elite Runic Treant

“We can’t log out anymore?”

“What’s going on? Why is this happening? Weren’t we fine when we did it before? Why did it suddenly stop working?”

“What should we do now?”

“What to do? Let’s just do this!”

..

Wu Wei finally confirmed that Team 8566 was a team of reckless people!

They were used to relying on lightspeed logout, but now that they couldn’t do it, they were all panicking.

However, although these people were reckless, they still had a sense of loyalty.

At this critical moment, Zhou Tian patted Wu Wei on the shoulder.

“Student Wu Wei, don’t worry. We were the ones who caused this. We will definitely protect you well. Even if you die, you will definitely be the last to die!”

“Why, thank you!”

Wu Wei’s face darkened as he spat out the words with difficulty.

Wu Wei did not expect that after Zhou Tian said so, the other team members also went along with it.

They immediately gathered around Wu Wei as the core and started to beat a retreat.

They continued to battle while retreating, but unfortunately, they were already in the depths of Treant Forest and had already arrogantly caused a big commotion. At this point, escaping already seemed harder than ascending to the heavens. At best, it was a situation where they would only get out 1 in 10 times.

In no time, Zhou Tian and Archer Boy started to incur more and more injuries.

The Treants’ encirclement was getting tighter and tighter, and it looked like they would not be able to make it through.

“Brothers, let’s try out the logout function again!”

Zhou Tian instructed Wu Wei to test the logout function again. However, after receiving his reply that it still wasn’t working, all the faces of Team 8566’s members instantly went pale.

“It’s over. We’ve gone and done it this time. I’m sorry, brother, there’s no turning back!

But don’t worry, we will do our best to save you.

Blondie, Brawny, the two of you don’t need to care about us anymore. Just do whatever you can to escort student Wu Wei out!”

Zhou Tian’s face had whitened to the extent that it seemed like he was giving his final orders as the team leader.

“No!”

The giant hound, Blondie, was the first to object. He gritted his teeth, saying: “I’m not leaving. If we die, we die together!”

Wu Wei was frankly surprised. During their time together, Blondie had not given Wu Wei an excellent impression, causing him to feel like this flippant person could not be a good person.

However, he did not expect that at the most critical moment, Blondie, who was the only one who could escape alone, would choose not to abandon the team and run away.

Although Wu Wei could hear the fear in his voice, Blondie still gritted his teeth and resolved to fight with the team till the end.

It was evident that this team had strong bonds.

They just weren’t as warm to him because he was an outsider.

As Blondie ground his teeth, Zhou Tian forced himself to stand up.

“Who would want to die in battle with you? I will die right now!”

Next, the reckless Zhou Tian charged toward the mob of Treants.

Zhou Tian had acted too suddenly and decisively for his teammates, who had their hands full against the tree spirit, to have any time to react. Just as Zhou Tian was about to dive headfirst into the Treants, a hand reached to grab ahold of him.

It was none other than Wu Wei!

Wu Wei felt speechless as he looked at the foolish man.

“What’s with all the dying? I don’t think there’s any need for that!”

“No, right now…”

Zhou Tian was in mid-speech when he suddenly saw Wu Wei raise his hand. Immediately after, a bright, glowing yellow light appeared, and in the next second, Yellow appeared!

However, seeing Wu Wei finally call out his summon brought only worry to Team 8566 and no joy.

They felt that having another Yellow Turban Soldier would hardly change anything in this situation. As if he could carve out a path for them!

But soon, they realized that this Yellow Turban Soldier did not seem to be the same as ordinary Yellow Turban Soldiers.

It seemed to be much bigger and much stronger!

Before Team 8566 could figure out what was going on, Wu Wei equipped Yellow with the Boar Slaughtering Sabre and gave an order!

“Breakthrough towards the South!”

What Team 8566 saw next was the sight of the two meters tall Yellow slicing his way through the mobs with his saber.

Slas.h.i.+ng and stabbing sounds reverberated through the air.

Just one single slash of Yellow’s killed three Treants on the spot.

“Two meters tall? One slash, three kills? This is… a Yellow Turban Soldier?”

That single slash left the entire team thunderstruck.

And it had only been the beginning. Yellow raised his saber and continued attacking like crazy, each of his slashes taking down at least one Treant.

In a short time, the southern part of the Treants’ encirclement had been opened up.

“Don’t just stand there. Breakthrough to the South immediately!”

Breakthrough to the South?

South was not the direction they had come from, nor was the entrance to the Treant Forest there. Why would they break through to the South?

However, although no one in the team knew why, none of them raised any doubts at this critical moment.

Wu Wei was now the big boss, and only his word mattered!

Thus, Team 8566 followed Wu Wei’s lead.

They followed Wu Wei – or more accurately, they followed the Yellow Turban Super Soldier and headed southward to escape the encirclement.

After a short while, they arrived at a rocky area.

“Although we aren’t that deep in the forest now, it won’t be easy to kill our way out.

When we were scouting, I noticed this rocky area could prove helpful. Over here, we will use the advantageous terrain to mount our last hold against the Treants!”

Wu Wei immediately revealed his plan when they had arrived.

Team 8566 immediately began to coordinate with him.

“Brother Wu, what do you think of that place?”

As the team’s expert in archery, the Archer’s eyes shone as he spotted a good sniping spot.

Wu Wei looked over and saw a gigantic rock and two smaller rocks on either side, providing good cover. If they took up that spot, they would not have to worry about sudden attacks from their rear.

“It’s good!”

The team immediately rushed over to occupy the area. Having Yellow around gave them a feeling of invincibility.

“Blondie, Brawny, stand guard with me. Zhou Tian, if you or the archer have any pills, then take them now. If you don’t have any pills, hurry up and try to recover!”

“Okay!”

Without the possibility of danger behind them, the pressure on Wu Wei and the others’ defense was significantly lightened. They soon found resting areas for Zhou Tian and the archer.

For now, their situation had greatly improved.

However, just as everyone could catch a breather, two vines suddenly stretched out and lashed against Goldie and the Brawny.

Goldie reacted quickly and dodged, but Brawny, who was less agile, could not dodge and became entangled.

Just as the vines were about to drag Brawny towards a group of Treants, Wu Wei raised his crossbow and shot an arrow to sever the vines.

Exposed after having fired, a Treant that was bigger than a standard Tree Spirit broke through the large gap in their defense and charged straight towards Wu Wei!

“Not good!”

Team 8566’s expressions worsened when they saw this.

Could a Rune Summoner like Wu Wei survive a direct a.s.sault from an Elite Treant?

And just as they were about despair, a furious roar pierced the air.

“I’ll f**king kill you!”
