Chapter 818: Tail
Ye Zhongming had lived for ten years in the apocalypse. He wasn’t used to; no, he definitely wouldn’t hand is life to others.
Although the Soul Vein was similar to a contract and would disappear once you completed what you agreed to, who knew if this level eight mutated plant would add other things inside? If it did, Ye Zhongming would be forced to kill it or get controlled by it.
So when he suggested the Soul Vein, Ye Zhongming didn’t think about following the agreement. It wasn’t that he wanted to lie to the Death King Tree. On the contrary, he planned to fulfill the promise; it was just that he wasn’t used to being restricted by others.
In the past, Ye Zhongming would rather fight the Death King Tree and have an outcome decided than make such an agreement. But things were different. He obtained Earth equipment and had a set stat. There was an ability there that could remove this negative state.
Although the Soul Vein wasn’t hurtful it was still in a negative state, so it could be removed. So, to Ye Zhongming, this high-level mutated plant ability could, at most, last for two months on him. This was the cooldown of the Earth Gift. After which, Ye Zhongming would remove that mark.
Of course, he wasn’t a nice person. He planned to use the Death King Tree as a helper. After heading out, he was due to return to the Secret Realm. If he held the Death King Tree hostage to follow him, he could deal with the kings. After returning to this world, he would let Liu Zhenghong study it. Science had to go through time and failure. Without a few years, how would you get an outcome?
It would spend some time in Cloud Peak and be well-fed. If anything happened to Cloud Peak, would it just watch? Even if it wanted to, what if Liu Zhenghong was in trouble? You would have to think carefully!
What if they could brainwash it? Ye Zhongming didn’t mind turning it into a symbol of Cloud Peak.
Okay, that was a little far. But Ye Zhongming paved the future of the Death King Tree and was just forcing it onto that path.
Both sides started to swear, and they completed the Soul Vein quickly. It was just Ye Zhongming handing the Life Brain to it and helping it become a human. The Death King Tree would abandon the test and before they completed the agreement, they would live in peace.
“Why do I feel uneasy? Are you lying to me?”
Death King Tree’s female face was confused, and felt like Ye Zhongming’s gaze was shifty.
He returned to the hall and looked at the two remaining groups. He thought about it and chose the Demon Monster.
This was naturally not a rash choice. It was because although the demon monster was level eight, it was alone and pregnant. Even if it could fight, the baby would be its burden.
This place restricted energy, but it wasn’t restricted. Because of that, it wouldn’t be immune to the fertile soil, which meant that it would have to battle in each space.
If it passed many rooms, it wouldn’t be in a good state, so Ye Zhongming chose it naturally.
He entered a space and waited. A while later, the demon monster appeared.
Ye Zhongming’s appearance was what the demon monster expected. It looked at the human holding a blade and knew that a battle was unavoidable.
It charged into the space and pounced at the human.
The demon monster could choose to work with him outside because it relied on him to enter the space. But after getting in, it would be a lie to say that they would work together.
When they met again, they would have to fight to the death.
Ye Zhongming looked at its stomach. It had turned green like there was a lamp within. Ye Zhongming easily saw what was going on inside. There was a demon monster curled up. Just one looked, and his expression changed.
He recalled a rumor in his last life that there were a few exceptionally strong demon monsters. The most terrifying one was called Tail. It was a mutated demon monster that had three long and thin tails.
Now, the baby he was looking at, had three tails.
