The strangeness is coming, I build a forbidden kingdom of God in the end times

Chapter 81: Building the Withered Ancient Tree

【Ten Thousand Years Dead Tree】

Extraordinary level: Level 3

Effect: Composed of three thousand-year-old trees, it can take away the vitality of all living things around it, causing their flesh to decay rapidly.

……

"Level 3?!"

Su Hao grinned and waved his arms excitedly.

If a third-level extraordinary thousand-year-old dead tree is used in conjunction with a second-level extraordinary cursed scarecrow as the main material, then can the extraordinary level of the withered ancient tree that is constructed reach the third level?

If a first-level shelter could build an extraordinary third-level building, no one would believe it even if people told others about it.

Thinking of this, Su Hao immediately ran upstairs and moved the construction platform down from the shelter.

The height of the thousand-year-old dead tree is nearly a hundred meters. It is obviously impossible to get it into the shelter.

Coupled with the thousand-year-old dead tree's ability to absorb life, the breath seemed to be able to corrupt everything. If they got too close to the shelter, Su Hao was worried that little Annie would not be able to bear it.

After taking the construction platform out of the shelter, Su Hao grasped the roots of the withered ancient tree, lifted it slightly, and stuffed the construction platform in.

Then he took out 2000 pieces of wood, the construction drawings of the withered ancient tree, and the second-level cursed scarecrow, placed them on the construction table, and began to build the withered ancient tree.

【Please select the location to build the withered ancient tree. 】

Just like when he was building the fireplace and water purification device, a prompt sound first popped up in Su Hao's ears, and then a three-dimensional model appeared in front of him.

Only this time, in addition to the model of the shelter and the withered ancient tree, this three-dimensional model also includes a three-dimensional model of the surrounding environment.

The reason is very simple. The withered ancient tree is really too big.

Judging from the three-dimensional model, the trunk of the withered ancient tree is three or four times larger than the eight-story building below the shelter. The roots are even more ridiculously large and cannot be fully displayed on the three-dimensional model!

"This withered ancient tree is too big!"

Su Hao frowned slightly. Such a large withered ancient tree was too conspicuous.

Even if we ignore the problem of tree roots, a withered ancient tree over a hundred meters tall, even if painted with color-changing paint, I'm afraid the invisibility effect will not be very good.

When monsters come running over one after another, it will be a bit annoying.

In the Dark Forest, there are dozens of goblin tribes just that Su Hao knows about, which shows how many goblins there are.

Basically every day, there are dozens of goblins wandering around the shelter. If the shelter and the eight-story building were not painted with color-changing paint, the goblin corpses would probably be piled up several stories high.

However, the withered ancient tree is a prerequisite building for upgrading the shelter, and no matter how conspicuous it is, it must be built.

Moreover, Su Hao had a feeling that the withered ancient tree built with the third-level thousand-year-old dead wood and the second-level cursed scarecrow definitely had extraordinary power.

I'm afraid that ordinary goblins without any rank are not qualified to get close to the withered ancient tree!

Thinking of this, Su Hao turned his gaze back to the three-dimensional model.

Since the withered ancient tree is an ancillary building of the shelter and cannot be too far away from the shelter, Su Hao dragged the three-dimensional model of the withered ancient tree to the side of the eight-story building after thinking for a moment.

[Are you sure you want to build the withered ancient tree at this location? ]

"Yes!"

Without hesitation, Su Hao made his choice immediately.

next moment.

The construction platform emitted a dazzling golden light, wrapping up all the materials on it, and turned into a golden ball of light. It flew to the location designated by Su Hao, landed on the edge of the eight-story building, and began to expand and deform.

"Aba Aba!"

At this moment, as usual, five goblins holding wooden sticks emerged from behind the bushes that were more than a meter high.

The moment they saw Su Hao, they let out strange cries and ran towards him, waving their maces.

Su Hao glanced at the goblin calmly and ignored it. With his current strength, even if he stood still, these goblins would find it difficult to break his defense. He continued to look at the golden ball of light that was still expanding and deforming.

In a short while, the basketball-sized golden ball of light turned into a huge dead tree with a height of more than 100 meters, a diameter of nearly 10 meters, and a completely withered yellow body.

Almost at the moment when the withered ancient tree was built, the weeds on the surrounding ground seemed to have been drained of moisture and turned yellow at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Even the five goblins were like the weeds on the ground. All the blood in their bodies turned into energy and flowed into the ground from their feet, and their bodies quickly withered.

After a few seconds, these goblins, who were less than level one, turned into mummies and fell to the ground.

But this is not the end yet. All the vitality will disappear from the goblin's body.

The body of one of the goblins quickly fibrosized and turned into a dry scarecrow with a weird smile, standing on the ground with its feet together and its arms stretched out.

It goes without saying that the reason why the goblins and the surrounding weeds and trees have undergone such changes is definitely related to the withered ancient trees.

Then Su Hao had an idea and clicked on the information panel of the withered ancient tree.

.........

【Withered Ancient Tree】

Type: Shelter building
Extraordinary level: Level 3

Effect 1 - Withering Curse: Releases the Withering Curse on all species within a 5-kilometer diameter, absorbing the opponent's flesh and blood vitality and accelerating the speed of their flesh and blood decay.

The closer you are to the withered ancient tree, the stronger the curse will be.

Only units that belong to the Sanctuary, or are marked, are immune to the Blight Curse.

The more vitality the withered ancient tree absorbs, the larger it becomes, the wider the range of its roots extends, and the wider the coverage of the curse becomes.

At the same time, it can isolate the shelter from the effects of the ominous curse and spread it to the area covered by the roots of the withered ancient tree.

Effect 2 - Weak Scarecrow: Releases a weakness curse on all species within a 5 km diameter, reducing their physical strength.

Any unit that dies near the ancient tree has a certain chance of being transformed into a weak scarecrow, increasing the effects of the Curse of Weakness and the Curse of Withering.

……

"What the hell?! Such a large range!"

After reading the detailed information of the withered ancient tree, Su Hao couldn't help but widen his eyes.

A diameter of five kilometers is not a small number. If converted into acres, it would be 11.77 acres, which is larger than some hills.

As long as they come within five kilometers of the withered ancient tree, no matter if they are plants without intelligence, monsters corrupted by the ominous curse, or intelligent living creatures like humans, they will be in danger.

As long as there is flesh and blood and vitality, it will be infected by the withering curse, causing the vitality of the body to be plundered by the withered ancient trees, accelerating the decay of flesh and blood.

The closer you are to the withered ancient tree, the stronger the withering curse will be.

A monster like the goblin, which was not even at the first level, was drained of all its vitality and turned into a mummy in just a few seconds when it approached the withered ancient tree at a distance of more than 100 meters.

From this we can see how powerful the withering curse of the withered ancient tree is. Even many first-order extraordinary monsters would find it difficult to reach the withered ancient tree alive.

Moreover, after absorbing vitality, the withered ancient tree can increase its own size, expand the distribution range of its roots, and increase the range of the withering curse.

In addition to the effect of releasing the withering curse, the withered ancient tree has another new effect, which is weakening the scarecrow, after using the cursed scarecrow as another main material to complete its construction.

Also within the range of 5 kilometers in diameter, any species that enter this range will become weak due to infection by the weakness curse.

Moreover, once a species dies within this range, its corpse will turn into a scarecrow, further enhancing the effects of the withering curse and the weakness curse.

The withered tree absorbs upgrades to increase the range of the curse, and the weakened scarecrow transforms corpses to increase the curse's strength.

As long as the withered ancient tree is given enough time to grow, perhaps its roots can really spread to the entire Dark Forest, turning the entire Dark Forest into Su Hao's own territory!
"not good!"

At this moment, Su Hao noticed from the corner of his eye that a large area of ​​the weeds on the ground around him and the big trees not far away had disappeared.

There were many scarecrows of different sizes but exactly the same appearance standing on the ground.
