The moment the image appeared Ved's face turned grim. Volstone disappeared from his sight and the next thing he knew he was falling down faster than he can process.
A gaping hole appeared on his stomach and his shield was broken into thousands of fragments, his intestines fell out and blood leaked from his eyes and nose.
He crashed on the sea turning it red with his blood. ' What the hell was that?' Ved was greatly shaken.
His entire body could barely move, it was throbbing from mind numbing pain. His regeneration failed to heal him.
Something was blocking it entirely, on the contrary, his wound kept getting larger. The tree image shook.
Two life drops as he called them fell from two leafs healing him. The dragon image opened it mouth.
Out came a much darker and much more pure golden light. It bathed his body strengthening him to levels he had never felt before.
He could feel the roots of his tree pacing calculating the most optimal chance of survival for him.
