Chapter 4216 Growth In my core, I saw the roots of seedlings of the world tree that had been rested for years, rousing up. They moved roaringly out of the ground, but there was a gentleness in their movement. Thought that gentleness vanished when they began to wrap around the forcign. Within seconds, they had completely wrapped around it that I couldn't even see what was happening. Though I know it's not something I want to go through. For a minute, there was nothing when I saw the change happening. The world tree begins to get bigger, with its roots widening and spreading around. It isn't surprising. Given it is the essence of Prime. "Flowers," I said as I saw the flowers begin to appear on the tree. I thought the flower would mature into the fruit. That would have been amazing, but no more flowers are appearing. It disappointed me because I wanted the fruit. It is said that the fruit of each world tree seedling is different. I wanted the one on mine to mature. Instead, more flowers appeared on it, and it is happening very slowly. This means that each of them is taking considerable energy. Hun! I was looking at them in the tree when I sensed something and pulled my back from my core. A foreign had entered my range, and it was coming. This one is stronger than the last. I had just finished thinking when I sensed him appearing behind me and attacking. CLANG! My shield stopped the attack. I wanted to attack myself but didn't. I will get the opportunity to attack soon; I am sure of it. It attacked more aggressively than the last, and as I had more powerful. Hun! It kept attacking, and I defended when I noticed something. It made me frown, and I reacted, and a few seconds later, the frown became deeper. CLANG CLANG CLANG! Its attack continued until I finished wrapping it in my strings. As it happened, I pulled it into my core without wasting any time. This time, I didn't stay in my place and moved while keeping an eye on my core. Where another set of roots came and wrapped around it. The tree is massive, and it is growing fast. With the addition of another, it will grow even faster. I kept walking, and soon, the digestion of another started as I had expected. It begins to grow even faster. Hun! A few seconds passed when I sensed the foreign again. Not foreign, but foreigns. There are two of them that came, and they are stronger. Another shield appeared. The two would need the two shields. They were extremely fast and appeared in the blink of an eye and launched an attack from two sides. CLANNG CLANNG! My shields defended the attack, but they attacked again and again. My shield defended with my expression, becoming worried about each attack. "Fuck!" I cursed. I noticed things earlier, but I wasn't sure, but I am right now. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎 They are learning things fast. The way I move and defend. This knowledge seemed to be passing through the central brain, as these two already had knowledge of how to attack me. This is very bad because whoever is sending these things will have knowledge of me and others. Making it much harder to deal with it. I don't know whether I would even be able to reach the big bad. Seeing how the power of these is increasing with each new. I was fighting the two when the roots unraveled from the first foreign. Leaving nothing but the husk, which had turned to dust a moment later. Buzz! A second after that, I heard the sound for which I had thirsted for a long time. As it came out, the tide of growth energy was released. My clone immediately took control of it and sent it to the single stainless lotuses. They are the most important resources for me, and I will be taking them to Prime first. Thankfully, I had already gathered the prime-level corruption, and my clone began to add it into the lake. It is the best time. The lotuses are delicate. If I do this any other time when there is no active energy. There is a high chance they will die. Here, growth energy will handle everything. I watched it for a second before focusing back on the battle. Where the two are learning and using this against me. I think it is not them that is doing that, but the brain, the queen, or whatever it is controlling. They are puppets; its why they begin to act like they went mad the moment they entered my core. Even their energies begin to turn chaotic. If the roots hadn't dealt with them, they would have self-destructed. Suddenly, the first foreign froze before he disappeared. "Now, only two have remained," I said to the second one, and it seemed to understand what I was saying in the brain as its movements became more aggressive. My two shields deal with them fast. Buzz! Seconds passed when I heard another buzz in my core. The second foreign finished, and the growth energy came. Half of it went to the lotuses, but the other half to the metal essence tree. Metal essence tree isn't the resource I want immediately, but it is extremely important. Most importantly, I want it for the honey, and I have gathered a lot of metal essence for it. Some of the essences I had created myself from a large source of metals. It begins to grow fast, with its roots sucking the twenty-four metal essence like a sponge. I had a large amount of honey created from the nectar of this tree. 90% of it, I had sent to the organization. I don't know if it has reached the organization. It is unlikely there have been only eight months, which isn't much. There is a good chance. He might have been found out the moment he got out of the gate. Seeing there were Silver Primes scanning every inch of Sky Sovereign. It would be terrible, given the value of resources and how hard, I worked for them. The worry of it gave me countless sleepless nights.
