Ye Zhongming sat quietly on the ground to recover mental energy. Xia Lei and the others were around him and were waiting.
Moments later, the Death King Tree appeared from the ground.
âSeems like we just need to wait.â
Death King Tree gave an intelligent look.
âThe situation changed?â
Ye Zhongming asked.
He understood its personality⊠If it did have a personality.
This tree was unstable. Sometimes, it loved to kill; sometimes, it was innocent; sometimes, it was cunning; and sometimes, it was honest.
But usually, as long as you offended it but used some praise or told it that humans should do something else, it wouldnât oppose you and would give you respect.
The sense of achievement of making a level eight lifeform listen to you did feel good.
âThey had two bases, but now, the humans at one abandoned it and are rushing to their other base. I think we can wait until they gather.â
Xia Lei frowned when she heard it.
There werenât many Cloud Peak warriors here. After keeping some to watch those prisoners, only a thousand could participate in this attack. Based on what the Death King Tree said, it would be too difficult when the two armies gathered.
To Cloud Peak, who focused on strength in elites, casualties were something they paid attention to.
âHow many people are there?â Ye Zhongming asked.
Death King Tree shook its body, âAround ten thousand.â
Xia Lei took a look at Ye Zhongming. This number exceeded what they could deal with. If they fight, the losses would be huge.
âHow strong are they?â
Ye Zhongming didnât reply to Xia Lei and continued to ask about the basic information.
Death King Treeâs beautiful face looked confused.
âYe, the few people in the base give me a weird feeling.â
Although the Death King Tree was not a sensory lifeform, at this evolution level, it was very sharp. For the Death King Tree to say, that meant that Ye Zhongming had to pay close attention to it.
Moreover, Ye Zhongming was used to his past life, which gave him a prophet-like prediction skill. Now that an organization he wasnât familiar with appeared, this made him more careful.
âYou know that I understand humans a lot, especially evolution energy.â The Death King Tree continued. It looked gleeful and felt like it had grasped the humansâ special speaking method-- Beating around the bush.
It was just saying that it understood food.
Cloud Peak members were confused, but they didnât say anything.
Actually, no one was right or wrong. Mutated lifeforms treated humans as food, and humans also treated them as ladders to evolve! This was the problem of strength. The stronger person would be higher up the food chain.
âSome of their evolution levels are okay but their bodies have a smell that makes me want to vomit.â Death King Tree wanted to learn how humans shrugged, but its body seemed shaky when it tried to do it.
âRegarding humans, even if I donât want to eat them, I wonât feel like vomiting. En, that is the case.â
Ye Zhongming didnât bother about the Death King Tree provoking humans but was thinking about the other things that he said.
Based on what the Death King Tree said, a special evolved should be among these people.
This special evolved should have an abnormal power in its body, which was easy for sensitive lifeforms to pick up.
To a certain extent, Ye Zhongming was a special evolved. Out of Cloud Peak warriors, they should be the most special bunch.
Their battle techniques didnât come from Earth.
Such evolved were the hardest to deal with.
âIf we rely on us, we canât defeat them. We need more of your help.â
The Death King Tree scoffed proudly, âWith me here, even if there were more of them, it wouldnât be a problem.â
Ye Zhongming nodded gratefully, which caused the Cloud Peak members who wanted to laugh to try to hold it in.

The smell of sweat and bodily fluids mixed together was something that people were used to.
Demon Gold sat in the center of the room naked, allowing sweat to flow down his copper skin.
Beside him was Green Flower, who lay face up and was also naked. Her white skin was slightly red, and numerous sticky white pieces of liquid were on the bottom half of her body.
She smoked a cigarette and looked like she enjoyed it. She squinted her eyes in the smoke, and no one knew what she was thinking.
If there were someone else in the room, they would notice that a fingernail-sized black meat strip was by their hearts. It stuck out on the surface and was beating along with their hearts.
âSmoke less.â
Demon Gold took a towel and wiped his body. He wore a black vest, and the design made his muscles more obvious, causing Green Flower to be in awe.
âIn this day and age, we would be fine even if we took drugs. What is wrong with smoking? Stop bothering me.â Green Flower took a towel from him and wiped her stomach. She also flicked the cigarette to the corner.
Although she said that, she still listened and stopped. freeweÉnovel.cĂžm
âWe donât know anything about the demon mark. This thing doesnât look like it comes from the wheel, so no one knew if smoking would affect it.â
Green Flower laughed, âYour fists are so strong you could break a hole through the earth, and you are afraid of a cigarette? Big fellow, you are just too careful sometimes.â
Demon Gold didnât mind what she said, âI am still alive because I am careful.â
Green Flower didnât say anything, âIs there news from Soul Merchant?â
