Visha laughed seeing Alin being hung upside down by the vine, but there was still another challenge on the way.
Uri lunged forward to retrieve Alin from the vine, but before he could arrive, another vine struck out of nowhere. This vine was not as thin as the one holding Alin. This one was as thick as an arm and covered in barbs. It whipped down from a canopy above.
The sound of it whizzing through the air showed how quickly it was moving. If Uri had not been fast enough, the vine might have completely pierced him. He was able to dodge, but not quickly enough. The vine left a deep gouge on his shoulder.
He hissed at the feeling and stepped back.
Xeno moved, lunging towards the plant the vine belonged to. It was a shrub with dark green leaves. Xeno ran towards the shrub as the vine whipped out to pierce him. Knowing from experience that they are unable to cause significant damage, he dodged.
