Chapter 200: World Tree Results
However, it was clear he was no match.
The monster that the chieftain had become casually flung Erdos aside. A blood-red mist surged around him as he sneered, "Such a weak insect, daring to challenge me!"
With that, he waved his hand, and the other monsters launched their attacks.
At that moment, Enzo sensed something unusual.
As the blood-red mist appeared, his newly mastered Blood Element Pattern activated, absorbing the mist and transforming it into a massive surge of power that flowed into his body.
This overwhelming power made him feel as though he could control everything, and his senses reached out to distant places, but it also filled him with a violent urge for slaughter.
Kill everyone!
This maddening thought repeatedly flashed through his mind. Enzo forced himself to stay calm.
At that moment, he sensed a familiar fluctuation.
That was—
A fluctuation in the spatial waves from the outside!
Enzo\'s heart leaped with joy. He concentrated the vast spatial elemental power in his palm and formed a spatial portal.
Then he shouted to the group, "Everyone, leave here first! I\'ll hold them off!"
The group was momentarily stunned and deeply moved.
They hadn\'t expected that in such a perilous moment, Enzo would choose not to abandon them but instead face the terrifying monsters to protect them. This act of bravery made them genuinely revere him.
"Mr. Enzo…"
Xavior began, trying to persuade Enzo.
But Enzo shouted irritably, "Get moving already!"
With that, Enzo charged towards the Moon Tide monsters, his body also enveloped in blood-red mist, radiating an aura of evil.
Seeing this, Xavior restrained his sorrow and said, "We can\'t let Mr. Enzo\'s efforts go to waste!"
The group hurriedly entered the spatial portal.
Seeing so much potential food escaping, the Moon Tide monsters were furious. The chieftain, in particular, smashed a powerful punch into Enzo, opening his blood-red mouth and taunting, "Kid, even at a time like this, you\'re still so merciful!"
"You\'re doomed!"
"Since those morsels have escaped, you\'ll have to take their place! I can already smell the aroma coming from you—it\'s simply irresistible!"
Heh heh heh…
Strange laughter emanated from Enzo.
The numerous Moon Tide monsters sensed something was wrong. Feeling uneasy, they closed in and surrounded Enzo.
At this moment, Enzo looked up.
His eyes had turned completely blood-red, his face covered in crimson markings, exuding a malevolent yet strangely captivating aura that mesmerized those who looked at him.
The blood-red mist around him had long dissipated.
In its place were a pair of blood-red wings, each with an eye at the joint, radiating multicolored light as if surveying everything around.
Besides, the feathers of the wings are made of flames.
These feathers flutter, giving a sensation of burning.
It could be said that Enzo before us looks even more like a Moon Tide monster than these Moon Tide creatures themselves.
"Fascinating!"
Enzo remarked with a sense of wonder.
He slowly stepped forward and extended his hand, and one of the Moon Tide monsters seemed unable to control its body, flying directly into Enzo\'s hand.Enzo grabbed the monster\'s neck, exerted a slight force, and then twisted it directly.
Then, the monster\'s body turned into blood-colored mist and was consumed by Enzo. After finishing, Enzo smiled and said, "No one expected that the greatest treasure in the Misty World isn\'t those so-called artifacts, but you monsters!
The remains of deities\' bodies, the corpses of Energy-devouring Worms, and the souls of supernatural beings have gradually evolved into monsters like you over the ages. You are the true nourishment!"
As the blood-colored mist was absorbed, Enzo felt his power growing once again.
This was an all-encompassing enhancement.
Not only his physical strength, but also his mental power, soul, and even his talents were improved.
These monsters could be seen as the flesh and blood transformed from Rexfit, who had truly entered the realm of deities. His flesh and blood possessed incredible effects.
The Moon Tide monsters were completely panicked.
Especially the chieftain from before, who could scarcely believe what was happening—he couldn\'t believe that Enzo had so easily killed and consumed his kind.
It was all too bizarre...
Unfortunately, he didn\'t have time to think.
Enzo\'s condition was clearly abnormal. Although he felt unprecedentedly well, with his mind incredibly clear and his strength rapidly increasing.
He had overlooked one thing.
As he killed more Moon Tide monsters, the amount of blood-red mist he absorbed increased. His desire for slaughter not only did not diminish but grew stronger.
"This isn\'t me!"
Enzo suddenly realized this, but in an instant, he smiled and said, "This is me! As a powerful being, it is only right to trample everything that is weaker! This is what true supernatural power is!"
With the last Moon Tide monster defeated, Enzo nodded in satisfaction. He casually opened a spatial portal to leave, but before departing, he threw a massive fireball that struck the ground and exploded violently.
The already unstable space became fragmented, and anyone entering the Misty World again could very well be torn apart by the spatial shards.
However, Enzo smiled and said, "It\'s much better now." With that, he stepped into the spatial portal and left the Misty World.
...
Meanwhile, at the Crimson Star Tribe\'s camp.
After Enzo\'s departure, the tribe\'s development did not stagnate. The establishment of the new system allowed for rapid progress, and now the Crimson Star Tribe had expanded into Rivaille Forest, becoming a renowned large tribe in the barren mountain region.
The goods produced were even sold to very distant places.
In the courtyard in front of Enzo\'s residence.
Tia sat on a bamboo chair and couldn\'t help but say, "I wonder how Lord Enzo and Amy are doing."
Clara, who was nearby, heard this and handed Tia a piece of roasted supernatural boar meat, saying, "Instead of worrying about that, I think you should focus on improving your own strength. With Mr. Mina\'s potion, reaching Level 3 before the end of the year shouldn\'t be a problem."
"And once you reach Level 3, you can consider going to the external realm."
"Then, you can be with Lord Enzo. Otherwise, you would only be a burden to him."
Hearing this, Tia felt a bit disheartened.
She complained, "Improving one\'s strength isn\'t that easy! Talent like Lord Enzo\'s is simply unprecedented."
Clara fell silent.
It\'s true. Despite the help from the potions made by Mina, her and Tia\'s progress has been slow. To advance a level usually takes several months or even a year or two.
The further along you get, the more difficult it becomes.
The same is true for others. According to Mr. Mina, this is normal. Enzo\'s case isn\'t really a valid reference.
But it is still a bit discouraging.
Clara could only speak up again, offering comfort: "Alright, as long as we keep going, we will eventually succeed."
At that moment, Tia suddenly screamed.
She pointed excitedly at a small tree planted in the center of the yard and said, "Clara, look, the little tree left by Lord Enzo has borne fruit!"
On the tree was a single blood-red fruit.
It was round, with silver-white veins, and emitted an enticing aroma, though the smell stayed within the small yard.
Clara took a slight sniff and her expression suddenly changed.
She looked around to make sure no one was nearby before whispering to Tia, "Tia, this isn\'t an ordinary fruit. Have you noticed that the accumulation speed of supernatural power has increased?"
Tia checked and immediately nodded.
Seeing Tia confirm this, Clara was deeply shocked, even a bit anxious.
What had Lord Enzo done?
This small tree, bearing just one fruit, could increase the accumulation speed of supernatural power, something even the high tower couldn\'t achieve.
After much hesitation, Clara decided to keep this matter confidential.
She told Tia, "Tia, we can only discuss this after Lord Enzo returns."
Tia agreed with this plan.
However, neither of them was overly worried. To protect Enzo\'s residence, entry was restricted to outsiders, and Audrey, the powerful contracted individual of Enzo, despite her strength and rights, rarely stayed at the Crimson Star Tribe camp.
Therefore, for now, the place seemed quite secure.
Meanwhile, Enzo, who was sensing the situation with the World Tree from within the Dark Night Forest, was not paying much attention. Emerging from the Misty World, his thirst for battle had resurfaced.
He can\'t wait to start another killing spree!
However, there seems to be something wrong with where he came out.
"Kill them! Kill them!"
"Damn the Solar Dynasty, I will make you pay the price! Warriors of Ice Moon Royal Family, obey my orders and charge towards those miscellaneous people of the Solar Dynasty!"
"Block them!"
"The Solar Dynasty is unbeatable!"
"..."
This seemed to be a battlefield center, and also the center of the battle between the Solar Dynasty and the Ice Moon Royal Family. Countless royal soldiers are fiercely fighting, and the bloody smell of blood spreads throughout the entire battlefield.
Enzo squinted his eyes and thoroughly enjoyed the moment.
"The taste of blood is truly delightful." he said. However, he soon noticed that the shouting was gradually diminishing and the area around him was becoming emptier. The ongoing battle had suddenly halted due to the unexpected appearance of this intruder.
Moreover, both sides had surrounded him.
