Monster Integration - Chapter 4072: Heart

Ripp Ripp!

Two branches had struck my left and right. Sending the massive energy into me. It was quickly captured, and the affected parts were sealed.

I may be dealing with the damage quickly, but the primary danger remains, and it is

improving.

The tree isn’t as intelligent as humans, but it seems to have some intelligence as it is improving. I didn’t notice at first, but as the minute passed, I began to notice it.

I reacted immediately to that and changed my combat style, but the reprieve was small.

It learned my capabilities. It understood how fast, I could move and how strong I am along with many other things.

It’s why the branches had become slimmer before, and the thorns become more blade-like. It had increased the speed of the branches and lethality of the thorns.

Not all things are bad.

It is not the only one that has improved. I had also learned a lot about it while fighting it. The way it moves the branches, the way it attacks me.

I am changing my fighting style to deal with these challenges, with my armor helping me with that.

Still, despite that, the battle is just as dangerous.

It is more dangerous now, as these blade-like thorns don’t want to pierce and send the energy into me anymore. While they are doing that, their purpose had change to cutting from piercing.

It’s hard dealing with that.

Every moment is a struggle of life and death, but I am doing it as there is no other choice.

I have to kill this thing, or it will kill a lot of people.

The more I fought with it, the more I realized how dangerous this thing it. If I didn’t deal with it and the organization’s response was late, it would be troublesome.

I have no doubts in my mind, that this thing could reach the Prime and from the data, I had gathered.

It might not take long to do that.

CLANNNNG CLANNNNG!

I defended against the two branches, while the shield handled the two. The last two, I had dodged, but they had come at me again.

Ripp!

This time, I wasn’t able to dodge it, and it got me. My head is, to be exact.

It had cut to the bone and sent a large amount of energy inside. It was not the first time it had cut my head and every time, I had survived.

There might come a time when I might not be able to and that would be my end.

I pushed those thoughts and focused on the enemy.

Seconds passed, and I continued my dance with the death. Thwarting it every second, for it comes at me for another second.

CLANNNNG!

I defended, and this time a smile appeared on my bloody lips. The preparations have been finally finished.

I could not act.

“Pull,” I said, and I pulled the strings.

The change was immediate, and I used it to my advantage and moved forward.

Krrrrr Krrrr Krrrr!

The faces on the tree let out a sharp noise, and the branches came at me.

Yes, they could still move, but they are much slower than, before. Still dangerous, but far slowly, and I moved my sword toward them while muttering the isolation.

Rip Rip Rip

My sword moved fast, and it had ripped through the branches.

They fell to the ground, and a moment passed, but there was no change in them. They remained lying. Seeing that, a smile couldn’t help but appear on my face.

I had already bound the tree before I even began to fight it.

The real challenge was inside. Especially spatial and the absorption kind, also appeared.

The heart is the center, and it is complex. It might look like a humanoid heart, but it is very different and complex.

If not for my knowledge and the clones. I wouldn’t have dared to do what I have done and planned to do in the next few seconds..

Rip Rip Rip!

I dealt with the absorption, but I couldn’t stop the regrowth. There are power crystals all over the branches. They are powering it.

Though I had sealed the core supply of it.

I kept cutting the branches as I moved forward, and soon, I saw the changes; I was hoping to

see.

The regrowth begins to slow down.

Seeing, I begin to cut them even faster, the branches begin to pile up and finally, after a minute, the tree cannot grow any branches, it is now without one.

Krrrrr Kreeee Kreeee

There is only a trunk and screaming faces on it.

‘I will have to act fast,’ I thought as I appeared beside the trunk. It is pushing the energies hard; those twelve small balls won’t be able to stop it for long.

I have a minute at most before it will break through the seals and monsters will be on me.

Given the number of them. I might have to escape.

It is not just that, it has discovered my strings and what I have done to them, and it is trying to destroy them.

I took a deep breath, and at its heart appeared in front of me. It’s not as small as in the tree, but big as an adolescent human.

I could see every detail of it. Including that spatial crystal, it had created a spatial domain.

I want to remove that crystal, but it is in the complex net, which I have to destroy without

triggering it.

If it did, it will create a mini spatial storm, powerful enough to harm even the Prime.

I removed the few tools, and they didn’t touch the trunk, which is dangerous.

Even I didn’t dare to touch it and kept the shield begin us. I know very well, that is waiting to

strike me at the right moment.

If it was not for the shield. I wouldn’t have dared to stand so close to the tree, where my

strings are at least.

I needed the strings inside it and used the strings covering the trunk.
