Chapter 27: The Tree God Descends! Absolutely Handsome!
Wang Ke was going crazy.
She never imagined that, in the face of the invincible troll horde, Xu Yan's chosen tactic would be a full-force wave attack...
This was a disaster waiting to happen.
Not only had this madman managed to aggro most of the trolls, but he had also drawn the hatred of the BOSS itself!
This was a complete all-in strategy—there would be no second wave.
---
A Cruel Realization
Wang Ke completely gave up any hope of resistance.
At first, she thought:
Even if she was assigned three life-class teammates,
Even if she was given a hellish starting point,
With her skills and hard work, she might still turn things around...
But now, she realized she had been delusional.
Xu Yan never intended to give her or himself any chance at all.
---
The Trolls Attack
The trolls roared in excitement, raising their massive enchanted hammers as they charged toward Xu Yan.
They were seconds away from smashing him into pulp.
This was punishment for his earlier provocation.
---
A Moment of Panic
Seeing this, Wang Ke's heart tightened.
Xu Yan wasn't even trying to dodge!
The sheer density of incoming attacks was beyond calculation!
Sure, the protective crystal could generate a safety shield and teleportation escape, preventing actual deaths...
But it had a limit, right?
What if the crystal's energy got overloaded?
What if some damage leaked through?
Could a farmer's frail body really withstand that?
And what if there was a delay in the teleportation activation?
Wouldn't that mean Xu Yan could actually die!?
The thought terrified Wang Ke.
She tightened her grip on her staff.
Even if she wasn't the captain, she would never allow someone to die under her watch!

Lightning Awakens
In the next moment, a halo of thunder and lightning erupted around Wang Ke.
A massive magic circle expanded from her position, reaching a diameter of 20 meters.
Wang Ke's body lifted into the air, suspended by anti-gravity magic.
Her short hair fluttered as electricity crackled around her.
Her eyes glowed with pure lightning energy.
"Thunder and Lightning Field!"
A rare-class ability of a Lightning Mage.
A wide-area magic field that continuously bombards enemies with high-voltage lightning attacks.
This skill had immense power, but also drained magic at an extreme rate.
Against the trolls—who resisted lightning—Wang Ke knew she wouldn't deal much damage.
But that wasn't her goal.
She just wanted to draw the trolls' attention onto herself, hoping to save Xu Yan from instant death.
---
Xu Yan's Response? Indifference.
Xu Yan didn't even flinch.
He didn't care if Wang Ke pulled aggro.
Because by now, almost all of the disaster beasts had already entered his control range.
Whether or not hatred shifted, it wouldn't change the outcome.
With calm precision, Xu Yan stepped forward and stomped his foot onto the ground.
---
The Tree God Descends!
"Wood Release—Tree World Descent!"
In an instant, a huge green magic circle lit up beneath Xu Yan's feet, spanning nearly 100 meters in diameter.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The earth cracked open.
Countless saplings exploded out of the ground, growing at an unimaginable speed!
In just a blink of an eye, the saplings towered into massive trees.
Their branches twisted and coiled, transforming into living vines that wrapped tightly around every single troll in range.
The trolls—once roaring with excitement—were suddenly frozen in place, unable to move a muscle.
Even their massive enchanted hammers were locked in place, restricted by some invisible force!
The trolls' expressions instantly changed from bloodthirsty excitement to pure confusion.
What… was happening?
---
The Divine Presence
Xu Yan stood amidst a dense, ancient forest,
Master of the Tree World,
Calm as the wind and clouds,
Like a Tree God descending upon the battlefield.
The scene was mesmerizing.
Majestic.
Powerful.
Undeniably handsome.
The sheer visual impact left everyone speechless.
---
Wang Ke's Shock
Wang Ke stood completely frozen.
This was unreal.
Xu Yan had just mass-controlled an entire horde of Level 5 trolls in an instant.
She had never seen such a powerful control ability in her life!
"He actually wasn't lying before…"
"He really can make saplings grow into towering trees in an instant!"
"He really can completely immobilize an entire melee-type disaster beast army!"
"He really can… completely crush everything in his way!"
Ninety-five fully armed trolls…
Completely locked down in seconds.
It was ridiculous.
It was beyond belief.
It was absolute dominance.
---
A Crumbling Reality
At that moment, Wang Ke's entire world view shattered.
Her brain refused to process what she had just witnessed.
She had just activated her most powerful Lightning Field ability…
But at some point…
It had completely dissipated.
She didn't even notice when it stopped.
Xu Yan's Tree World had obliterated her attempt before it could even begin.
She was left standing there, staring blankly at the forest surrounding them.
Her lightning flickered out, leaving her in stunned silence.
