This should be where the Ancient Leshen ate, its lair.
Suddenly, the crows circling above him let out a series of chilling shrieks.
They scattered, then rapidly descended from the sky, landing dozens of meters away from Guilliman, regrouping.
The crows' bodies suddenly shattered, turning into masses of pitch-black energy.
And as the energy of hundreds of crows converged, twisting and transforming, it actually formed a gigantic Leshen, ten meters tall, with grey-black tree-bark skin, huge antlers on its head, distorted features, an unusually terrifying gaunt face, and a towering body.
This was probably the ruler of this forest, the Ancient Leshen.
Its transformation from crows into a monster greatly surprised Guilliman.
He hadn't expected this monster to possess such a trick, capable of dispersing its body into hundreds of crows to monitor the entire forest.
However, perhaps sensing a threat from Guilliman.
This Ancient Leshen did not immediately attack, but instead let out a low roar like a giant beast, echoing throughout the forest.
A moment later, as if in response to its call, countless animal sounds, wolf howls, tiger roars, and sharp, wailing ape cries, rose and fell throughout the forest.
It was summoning its subordinates.
Guilliman raised an eyebrow, immediately sensing that hundreds, even thousands, of different beasts were rushing towards them from all directions, as if responding to the call of their king.
With battle imminent, he didn't delay.
He immediately took out four vials of potions from his storage space and quickly inserted them into the specially reserved slots in his thigh armor.
They were all potions to accelerate magic recovery and enhance the power of his Signs.
In fact, with his current physical fitness and poison resistance, he could even handle four more potions.
However, in this fight against the Ancient Leshen, the most important thing was the use of Signs. He was quite confident in his speed and evasion and would not engage in a direct attack confrontation with the enemy.
After injecting the potions, he immediately felt his blood flowing rapidly, and his mutated organs, even his muscles, were operating at extremely high speed.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Feeling his heart operating at full capacity, Guilliman cast a Quen shield on himself, then subtly shifted his feet while his other hand rapidly accumulated magic.
He planned to launch a preemptive Exploding Igni fireball to catch the enemy off guard.
However, the Ancient Leshen was even faster. This gigantic monster, ten meters tall, directly swung its two thick legs, rushing forward rapidly, its arms, made of tree branches like a dozen scythes, grabbed at the Witcher like sharp claws.
Guilliman did not back down. Watching the charging Ancient Leshen, he waited until it was less than twenty meters away. Once his Exploding Igni was ready, he immediately hurled it at the behemoth.
The Exploding Igni fireball, from its appearance, didn't seem to pose much of a threat; it was just a large fireball, about half a meter in diameter, emitting a white-hot glow.
But this was merely its appearance.
The external temperature of this white-hot fireball alone reached over two thousand degrees, while its internal temperature soared to three or four thousand degrees, almost the limit of ordinary flames.
And once this explosive fireball was released, it shot like a cannonball, blasting towards the Ancient Leshen at an extremely high speed.
This Leshen possessed considerable intelligence. It immediately sensed the threat of the Exploding Igni fireball. In an instant, it stopped its charge, then plunged its hands into the ground, and a large wooden wall made of vines instantly rose before it, attempting to shield it from the Exploding Igni's damage.
Boom!
With a thunderous explosion, the white-hot Exploding Igni fireball struck the wooden wall made of vines and then burst open.
Like a high-tech incendiary bomb, it directly shattered the wooden wall, then instantly exploded into a burning inferno about fifty meters in diameter.
Caught off guard, the Ancient Leshen's body was not only blown back over ten meters, but its entire body was also engulfed in raging flames, and the trees and weeds around the fireball, and even some trees further away, were all ignited by the flames.
Because he underestimated the power of the Exploding Igni fireball, Guilliman himself was swept into the inferno.
