"Fell into the sea and drowned..."
Sun Muchen immediately shivered. On one hand, she was surprised by the tree's super hearing, because she had tried her best to suppress her voice. On the other hand, she never expected that the source of the anomaly would be in the sea.
Wang Lan frowned, staring intently at the tree in front of her for a while, then turned to Sun Muchen, "Sister, is the sea very deep? Deeper than the lake we just saw?"
Sun Muchen: "..."
Having grown up in the safe zone and having received little formal education, Wang Lan's understanding of the sea was extremely limited, consisting mainly of snippets of conversation among survivors.
for example…
Seeing you is like seeing the ocean!
This is one of the few things Wang Lan had heard of.
Sun Muchen explained, “It’s huge! It’s deep! It’s beyond your imagination. The so-called ocean is where all rivers and streams converge. It’s the largest sea on Earth, and it’s unfathomably deep. Moreover, there are far more creatures in the ocean than on land. With our strength, if we fell into the ocean, I think even if we didn’t drown, we would be eaten to bits by the sea animals!”
"That's terrifying!"
Wang Lan immediately had a general idea in her mind.
At this moment, Sun Muchen sighed and said, "Sigh, brother, maybe... we should just listen to it."
The tree's voice rang out at that moment, "Joining forces with me is your only option. My body is as tall as the sky and my supernatural powers are vast and invincible. Even if we enter the sea and fail, I can still ensure your safety and keep you alive. If we succeed, the changes on Earth will stop. Although humanity has suffered repeated defeats, it has not become extinct. I can completely help you rebuild the glory of the past era."
“I still don’t understand,” Wang Lan asked again, “My brother and I are not as strong as you think. Where do you get the confidence that we can help you win?”
“No, I don’t have confidence,” the tree said. “It’s just that you two are different, you…”
The branch pointed at Wang Lan, "Your bloodline is completely different from that of humans, because your bloodline is far superior to that of ordinary humans, and you have that inexplicable membrane in your brain. It is precisely because you were manufactured that you are perfect, like a rare work of art. But at the same time, you are not perfect. The things in your brain will become your most fatal flaw."
"And you..."
The branch pointed at Sun Muchen: "Whether physiologically or structurally, you conform to all the characteristics of a human being, but you can rely on the energy of blue light to drive the energy of heaven and earth to your own use, and you can do it with ease. It's really strange."
"Most importantly..."
The tree said, "Your energy is of the same origin as mine. Perhaps... this is a preordained arrangement."
"In the dark?" Wang Lan suddenly laughed. "The way you're saying this sounds a bit like metaphysics. You actually believe in this?"
“Hundreds of years ago, when my mind was not yet fully developed, I was fortunate enough to meet some people who practiced mystical arts. So I believe that all encounters have their own laws, especially the two of you, who are very different from others, yet you two are closely related, and the three of us share the same energy. Just when I was in a crisis to resolve, your appearance made me feel... this could not be a coincidence!”
"So I'm going to give it a try!"
The tree's voice rang out, this time incredibly vast, like the legendary voice of a god, echoing throughout the world.
"I will gamble with all the energy I've absorbed over the past century! In order to survive, I will go to the source of your so-called mutation and make that energy work for me!"
"Alright, alright!"
Wang Lan covered her ears, looking extremely pained, and said, "We understand, please stop talking. If you keep going, your two henchmen will be shocked to death!"
"hehe…"
The tree suddenly laughed.
Then, in the eyes of the brother and sister, the tree’s massive trunk began to tremble, and huge leaves fell from the cloud-covered sky, instantly stirring up howling winds.
The two brothers realized what was happening in an instant.
The reason the sky looks dark green is because the branches and leaves of the trees have grown to the point of covering the sky!
As the leaves fell, the mummified corpse was among them, and unfortunately, it was struck by a falling leaf and instantly smashed into pieces of flesh, which drifted away in the wind, its whereabouts unknown.
The sound of the trees rang out once again.
"I am surrounded by empty shells, soulless and devoid of reverence... but I have imprisoned their dying fear and rage, and that will become my greatest power!"
Mummified corpses and leaves fell in a chaotic flurry, in unimaginable numbers, as if a torrential downpour had struck. Wang Lan and Sun Muchen were horrified by what they saw. They couldn't imagine how many people had died at the hands of the tree, and how these people had become part of the tree, its nourishment, its energy!
And right here in this rain.
Two slender vines stretched out, bearing two bright red fruits, which landed in front of the two people.
"Eat it!"
The tree said, "These are the essence fruits that I have accumulated over a hundred years. They will bring you unimaginable miraculous effects, and will guarantee that you will not feel hungry for a period of time!"
The two took the fruit from the vine.
The red fruit was found to be about the same size as an apple.
