The exclamation from behind came from Miss Julian.
Two dead ash-gray, bare branches bound her horizontally from the middle. One branch below her collarbone, the other above her stomach, making her originally flat chest form a slight curvature.
The dead ash-gray ancient tree danced wildly, countless branches whipping indiscriminately like whips.
As the branches swung, clumps of dark green spore balls appeared.
The spore balls burst, transforming into a dark green mist, enveloping the battlefield.
"Miss Julian, be careful, hold your breath, energy body protection!"
The Awakened from the Muji Clan were vigorously slashing at the branches while reminding Julian to defend herself.
However, these dead ash-gray branches appeared withered, yet were actually as hard as steel, showing little effect from the slashing.
