It is bigger now and more powerful than the last time I brought it out to deal with the host.
Seeing how it had helped me last time. I had developed a mechanism to control it. It’s a plant, not a monster, I could take, but a few things could be done.
I was about to activate this mechanism when it moved toward the mist on its own.
If it had been a monster, it wouldn’t have done that. Their instincts would have screamed at them, but it’s a plant and it doesn’t have instincts.
It only saw the food source, and it leaped toward it.
"What the hell is that?" Haklin asked as the plan breached the bloody mist. "Something that will eat you," I replied, without missing a beat.
"Do you think it’s that easy?" he asked with a laugh. There is not even a hint of fear in his voice. He does not think the plant is something that he should fear.
"It might be powerful, but in front of me, it’s nothing," it stated, and I could feel the core acting.
The next of the strings that were hovering around the core gripped it, then activated a powerful formation.
"What did you do?" he asked. Feeling the panic and fear from it for the first time, but I also felt the rumbling of the power from the core.
It contains massive power and more than I had sensed earlier.
It seemed like he was not joking when he said that he had refined the blood of the thousands of monsters for it. Just thinking about it sent a shudder through my soul.
My strings could only hold it back for a moment. Thankfully, the moment is all I need.
The plant reached the big core and swallowed it whole. The moment it did, I pulled the plant back into the core. I could not do this before, but with its inside the plants, I could.
I shifted half of my focus to the core while flying toward the village at my greatest speed.
’Bastard, I will kill you!’ he roared inside the plant and released the blood power.
Though, as it did, it was quickly absorbed by the plant. The plant is very powerful—more than when I had faced it for the first time.
It is now only slightly weaker than the other plan I had found in the Violet Zone.
The power came, and it absorbed it, and it’s not alone in that. After what happened last time, I had laid formation inside it, which helps it digest things faster.
I truly didn’t expect that it would need it, and did it on a whim.
As this formation is derived from the formations in my Armor, it breaks the energy. I was working on that, actually, when an idea came to my mind.
It only took me a day to adjust the formation. The difficult thing was forging it.
I needed to use a really rare material for it, and for a few minutes, I even decided not to pursue it, before eventually going through with it, thinking I might need it one day.
Although I didn’t expect to need it so early.
The formation work, like the one in my armor. It breaks the energy that comes at it. Once it does, it releases it to the monster.
It makes it easier to absorb.
It is sending a large amount of energy, which is being broken down and absorbed by the plant. It seemed happy, but a frown appeared on my face.
’It seemed like you wanted to eat. Then, let me give you the treat,’ said the core, and the next moment, he had stopped attacking.
A moment after that, it had opened the gates of raw blood energy. This update is available on novｅlfire.net
It’s not an attack, it’s just energy, and it is massive and increasing every second.
The digestive formation, increases its power with the energy, but soon, the amount of energy reaches such a degree that the formation begins to run at full power.
The fact is that the volume of energy is still increasing, and this increase is occurring at a high rate.
It didn’t take more than a few moments before it went beyond the limit and went directly to the plant.
It is powerful, and it absorbed it for a couple of seconds before even its famed digestion began to get overwhelmed, and energy began to spread inside it.
It began resisting the damage with its powerful healing abilities, which could heal instantly. I am also beginning to help it with the nutrients.
It worked for a while before the energy reached such a high amount that it couldn’t
’This is my power, nothing and nobody could stop me!’ it roared madly, and a moment later, doubled the output.
Immediately, the bloody veins begin to spread across the plant, with blood mist coming out of it.
The plant is getting injured from its core, and the damage is spreading fast. So much that it began to affect the plants in its domain.
I had feared this; the plant is amazing, but the energy is too much and too powerful, and it is increasing.
Seeing that, formation begins to surround the plants. It’s not for the plant, but for the big core. This might seem like a massive amount of energy, but it is barely 1% of it.
There is a lot more, and I need to ensure it remains in this section.
Not only that. If it exploded, I would be able to contain it there without damaging my core.
I had made a lot of preparations for this for years. I bring a lot of powerful enemies here. I need to be ready, and I have been ready.
I might not be able to save the plant, but I could save my core and myself.
I am damn sure of it, even if the bastard attacked me with the power of the thousand beasts.
Seconds passed, and now the plant had turned sickly blood red. It is heavily damaged, it won’t be long before it does, and it pains my heart.
I had so much hope for it, but now, it will be dying to save me.
I was thinking that when the harvest finished. A moment later, I felt the most powerful strengthening energy I had ever felt entering my body.
At the same time, just as powerful growth energy came at me.
