After another month of silence, Aoki, who longed for freedom, finally evolved something unique based on the "Light of Life" under constant nagging. At this time, four huge tumors grew on the roots of the tree.
It's twice as big as the 502 super glue tumor.
But just after the tumor appeared, Aoki found that he felt very, very tired, as if he was low on energy, weak, and about to die. Moreover, the whole tree had a sense of malaise, and all the leaves drooped feebly.
, and the roots seem to have shrunk.
"What's wrong with me?" Aoki was very panicked, "Am I going to die?"
Soon, Aoki fell into darkness and became unconscious.
After an unknown amount of time, Aoki finally woke up. Thinking of what happened before losing consciousness, he quickly felt himself carefully, but the result of the feeling surprised Aoki.
At this time, the leaves of the entire tree have withered, leaving only the bare trunk.
"Oh my god! What's wrong with me!" After Aoki panicked, he quickly calmed down and recalled the whole story. Could it be related to the four tumors?
As long as Aoki pours his thoughts into it, a strange feeling will emerge in Aoki's heart.
"Is this...? Could it be...?"
This kind of spiritual power, which is very similar to the legendary, is very unique. It does not appear directly in the soul as imagined, but appears on the roots of the tree. When Aoki connects the four tumors, something will happen.
"Why is it only 5 meters? And it's still hazy." Aoki lamented. He just tried it and found that he could only extend his mental power (as it will be called this from now on) the further it goes, the weaker it becomes. After extending it to 5 meters, it becomes
The extension will stop completely. Moreover, the imaging effect is too poor, and everything detected will be blurred.
The effect was so bad that Aoki stopped taking care of it. The most important thing now is to change the current depressed state.
Aoki reorganized the roots of the tree. At this time, some of the relatively young roots had rotted away, or were simply occupied by wood borers. Fortunately, the two evolved tumors were not visited by insects, otherwise, Aoki would have cried.
No more tears.
It activates the remaining nutrients and growth hormones in the body to stimulate the roots, allowing the tree roots to re-grow new and tender roots, taking root in the earth and extracting nutrients from the earth.
Organic matter, inorganic matter, and various required elements are continuously transported from the roots to the ends of branches throughout the body to ensure the normal supply of nutrients for the sprouting of branches and leaves.
One sunset and sunrise, Aoki finally felt that his body had regained a little vitality. At this time, the leaf buds had begun to show their sharp corners, giving Aoki hope of new life.
For some reason, Aoki suddenly felt moved by life.
Day after day, Aoki is like a sophisticated machine, dominating the body with all its strength, constantly penetrating into every part of the body, mobilizing resources everywhere to provide services for growth.
Finally, after a month, Aoki returned to his previous appearance.
"Phew! I can finally relax." Aoki breathed a sigh of relief, feeling deeply about this difficult period.
"Maler Gobi! How can this be the 'Light of Life'? It's simply the light of death. We can't do this again in the future." Thinking of this crisis, Aoki was still frightened.
After relaxing, Aoki couldn't help but try the mental power thing again. After all, it evolved at the cost of almost his life. If he didn't use it, wouldn't he become a second-rate person?
After thinking deeply about the four tumors, the feeling of activation of spiritual power came again.
"Huh? Why does it feel more powerful?" The first moment it started, Aoki felt a big difference.
"50 meters? Has it increased?" Then he released his mental power, but the result surprised Aoki. It was not the original 5 meters at all, but 50 meters!!
With a wider field of vision and the ability to adjust the angle of vision at will, the surrounding scenes are presented in Aoki's mind in another form. There is no need to learn, it is as if it has been used for many years, and it is used proficiently without any sense of stagnation.
"It's very touching!" Aoki was extremely excited. Finally, he no longer had to be blocked by trees, flowers, and other things like before. When he focused on a place, it felt like his eyes were at the place he was looking at.
And if it is dispersed, it will look around like a scanner.
"It's finally worth risking my life to evolve you!" Aoki gave a thumbs up, and the original unhappiness disappeared. When I read the novel before, I was very envious of those with mental powers, and now I feel the same way.
I have caught up with the trend and equipped it, so I can play how I want in the future.
One word: "Cool!"
Aoki excitedly dived into the grass and into the water, feeling the different worlds and having a great time.
"Wow, this fish looks so fierce, and its teeth are so cruel; wow, there is a turtle there, it's such a big one!" The novel underwater world made Aoki excited and overjoyed.
"It's a pity that it only has a range of more than 50 meters. It would be nice if it was further away." Aoki just thought that 50 meters was great, but now he started to be greedy again.
Aoki, who had been playing for a long time, turned his attention away. Only then did Aoki realize that the surrounding environment seemed to have changed.
The stream has become shallower, the waterline has become lower, and the land has become drier.
"Judging from the root erosion, it must have been a few months, otherwise it wouldn't have rotted so quickly."
Aoki thought of a possibility, but ignored it due to lack of information.
Aoki was already entangled in other troubles at this time. Because young leaves sprouted at an untimely time, Aoki was unfortunately visited by a bunch of insects.
All kinds of unknown insects constantly visit Aoki. Not only that, but they also shamefully leave their eggs behind.
Aoki, who has learned a profound lesson, can be said to hate them deeply at this time. His plan to grow with all his strength is temporarily put on hold, and he is fully committed to extracting nutrients from the earth to supply the 502 strong glue processing factory on the roots of the tree.
Under Aoki's day and night supervision, the processing plant operates at 100% capacity and delivers leaves to various places through tree trunks.
After a day of continuous fighting, countless dead insects were left on the leaves. However, these could not stop the insects from flying into the flames.
Aoki's ability to produce 502 strong glue is limited, and it is impossible to supply all the leaves. Moreover, fresh twigs are like a big light bulb attracting these bugs.
In the end, Aoki had to change his strategy, and the strong glue he produced gave priority to the leaves at the top of the canopy. Because only by growing taller can he occupy more sunlight and fight his way out of the jungle.
After setting the goal, Aoki tried his best to protect the leaves in the crown of the tree. If there was excess strong glue, he used it gradually from the crown downwards.
After a few days, the insect disaster finally stopped for some unknown reason. At this time, the leaves all over Aoki's body were covered with various dead insects. If anyone saw this weird look, it would definitely make their hair stand on end.
Just call it a monster.
Logically speaking, if there are dead insects on the leaves, they will definitely block the sunlight, which will definitely affect the photosynthesis of the trees, further affecting the growth of the trees. But this is not the case for Aoki. Compared with the previous few days, his trees have grown longer.
The tree grew taller, the leaves became thicker, and the trunk became thicker. And Aoki himself knew that his roots were growing faster than before.
Aoki doesn't know the principle clearly, but he knows that nutrients are constantly input from the dead insects on the leaves, which promotes the growth of trees.
"I remember that some plants can decompose insect corpses through some enzymes and obtain nutrients from the insects. Could it be that this strong glue also has this effect?"
Sure enough, after about five or six days, the corpses of those insects gradually decomposed, and finally fell into a pile of tiny debris on the ground. After the leaves returned to their original appearance, the supply of nutrients stopped.
So Aoki confirmed that he had the function of catching insects like pitcher plants and Venus flytraps. However, Aoki didn't like this function very much because he didn't like a bunch of bugs sticking to his body.
I feel very sick just thinking about it, and I have goosebumps everywhere.
But if there is a bug that doesn't have eyes and wants to mess with Aoki, Aoki won't mind "digesting" it.
Another half month has passed peacefully, the sky has not rained yet, and the ground has become drier.
This reminded Aoki of what he had thought of a few days ago: judging from the weather here, it should not be a tropical rainforest climate zone, but a tropical monsoon forest climate.
If so, Aoki first ruled out the possibility of being located in the Amazon jungle.
