Chapter 1081 Gimme



"What? Why did you do that?" The draconian princess looked at Liam in shock. Why go through all of that trouble and gather all the energy, only to disperse it?

Liam raised his hand and signaled her to wait. He did not know how to explain it but he suddenly had a feeling that he was approaching this the wrong way.

He stopped and took a deep breath and settled himself first. He knew he had to go with his guts in this one and his guts told him that attacking and fighting here, in this place was unnecessary. Something was off.

After Liam took a breath and patiently observed the things in front of him again. He could see it. The tree was not a hostile entity. It was a rather peaceful and calm one.

Liam did not know what he was supposed to do now but definitely [Dragon Breath] was not the answer. He walked closer to the huge tree and after a second of hesitation gently placed his hand on it. He then started talking.

"I am not sure if you are a sentient being or not, but I am not here to fight with you." He did not fully understand why he was doing this but his intuition told him to go ahead.

"I know you have the world seed fragment in your possession. I am here for that. I need that to stop the nether from spreading and to stop our world from getting destroyed." 

Liam waited to see if there was any response from the tree but the place remained as tranquil as ever. With a small sigh, he continued. 

"Maybe you know what is happening right now. Maybe you don't. But you don't seem to be in a position to do anything about it. I can. I am asking you for your help."

"If you do not give the world seed fragment to me now then tomorrow someone else would come and claim it. The difference is if you give it to me today, the land you are standing on will not be corrupted. Make your decision."

Time seemed to stand still as Liam waited for a response, his hand still resting on the tree's bark.

And then, in a whisper of wind, he felt it—a subtle pulse, a confirmation. The tree, in its own way, had acknowledged his plea.

Liam withdrew his hand and stepped back. The next second, the trunk of the tree that had stood strong despite all of his attacks suddenly started unraveling, the wood parting like spools of thread.

And as Liam watched, two of these wooden threads extended toward him, unfurling to reveal a small particle. The tree had willingly opened itself to him, offering the world seed fragment he sought.

Liam smiled bitterly. He did not think that it would be this easy. It was good that he did not act rashly and attempt to fight this thing. He silently took the world seed fragment and observed, confirming that it was indeed what he wanted.

This was fast but Liam knew that the real trouble only began now. He currently had three-quarters of the world seed in his possession. Only the last part was left.

He looked around to check but there were no big clouds of dust or snow barrelling towards him this time around. Hmmm? By now he expected one or the other guardian beast to show up. However, that didn't seem to be happening.

Were they hesitant because he had defeated the last three?

Liam chuckled lightly. They were probably waiting for him to collect all of the fragments so that they could obtain the complete world seed once and for all.

The real trouble would probably begin then.I think you should take a look at

Liam glanced at the draconian princess and she remained silent, though her eyes screamed for him to stop what he was doing.

Unfortunately, there was no stopping now. This had to come to an end one way or the other.

He clenched his fist and took out the other part, combining all of the seed fragments together. A brilliant light radiated from the fragments, intertwining and merging together.

And the next second, Liam felt a strong pull. He could feel something resonate with the incomplete world seed in his hand. Even though it seemed to be in the other side of the world, he could clearly feel it.

"I know where it is!"

The last part of the world seed was smack dab in the middle of the ocean in between all of the territories. "Let's go." With his eyes full of determination, he started flying back to the magic shop along with the draconian princess.

However, the two of them suddenly paused and turn around as they felt something shift.

Liam watched in surprise as the entirety of the grove that they had just left suddenly started freezing up.

The air turned frigid, and a layer of frost spread rapidly across the once lush vegetation of the grove. The ground crackled under the weight of the ice, and the tranquil atmosphere turned into an eerie stillness.

And the huge tree that was at the center of all of this started wilting and withering. 

The changes were happening at a visible pace and in a few minutes, the small grove became indistinguishable from the rest of the frozen landscape.

Unexpectedly, there was something else there or rather someone else. In the spot where the grove was present, there was now a woman who had collapsed on the frozen ice. She seemed to be in a bad condition, barely breathing.

Liam fully did not understand what was going on or who this woman was but he could see that she was somehow connected to the tree or the world seed fragment. Now that she had handed it over to him, perhaps she had become like this?

In fact, this looked like the same woman whom he had briefly caught a glimpse of when he first arrived here.

Unfortunately, he had no time to analyze this right at this moment. If he did not hurry, then the entire world was going to be in a condition far worse than this.

At the same time, he did not have the heart to leave someone to die, especially someone who had simply handed over to him whatever he had asked.

Without thinking much, he shot forward like an arrow and shoved the weak and unconscious woman into his spatial artifact. 

The draconian princess gave him a strange look but he ignored it and resumed flying to the magic shop. 

From there, he took another portal to a shop that was the closest to his destination and it was time to get the last world seed fragment and complete the whole damn thing.
