Tap Tycoon System! - Chapter 66
With a reasonable explanation for the sudden expansion of the space, Nathan stopped thinking about it.
Next, Nathan turned his head to the side where the place he fell from was located.
“So I was hanging from that height?” he said with an unbelieving expression.
However, Nathan suddenly raised an eyebrow, “When did my space got this big tree though?”
The tree that Nathan is looking at was as big as 20 meters tall and 8 meter width.
He did not remember his space having a tree this big.
“Is this also an addition to the space brought by Soul Talent’s advancement?” Nathan randomly made a guess based on the flow.
Since even the space can get bigger, why can’t a tree be added as a freebie, right?
But that guess did not even last a few seconds before it was proven wrong.
The 5 meter in diameter hole in the midsection of the tree.
That sight made Nathan involuntarily freeze on the spot.
Regulating his breathing, he tried to remain calm.
Looking at the tree, Nathan hesitantly said, “Uhh… this tree, is it the Miracle Tree?” He asked Natura,
But it seems like she also doesn’t know what happened as she replied unsurely, “Uhh, I guess? I can feel the energy of the Miracle Tree from that one, Master.”
Nathan has basically confirmed that this is the Miracle Tree.
As to how the originally 7 meter tall tree transformed into a 20 meter tall one?
Nathan doesn’t know the answer.
For now, that is not what’s important to him.
What Nathan wants to know right now is why the Miracle Tree attacked him all of a sudden.
Observing the tree from a distance, Nathan relaxed a bit after seeing it behaving normally.
“It won’t suddenly attack me if I approach it, right?” He said,
With an uncertain look in his face, Nathan took a few steps forward, warily watching every movement of it.
After arriving a few meters away from the tree and still not getting any reaction, Nathan stopped hesitating and walked directly to the tree.
When there was still nothing when he’s just a few inches away, Nathan finally let down his guard.
He heaved a sigh of relief, “Phew~ that was kinda nerve wracking.”
Gazing at the Miracle Tree with complicated eyes, Nathan raised his hand and touched it.
“Wait, what’s all this!?”
However, when his hand touched the tree, images of things and events suddenly entered his head!
This greatly surprised him and hurriedly pulled back his hand.
He took a few steps back and stared incredulously at the tree.
Calming down his aggressively beating heart, Nathan sat down on the grass covered ground.
“What the hell was all of that?”
After calming down a bit, Nathan looked back into the images that he saw.
One of those images is what seems like the ruined city under the pond.
In it, the city was still fully intact without any damage. Humans, Tree Spirits and other races live together in harmony.
There were also things that were new to Nathan like soldiers that grew out of beans, laser guns, and a flying vehicle the size of a car.
Unlike it’s abandoned look today, it was bustling with people smiling as they went on their days back in that time.
“It feels relaxing to live in that time.” Nathan sighed as he watched those images.
There was another image that Nathan saw which caused some amazement in his heart to arise.
All of the races are surrounding a tree that looks similar to the Miracle Tree in front of him, but that one was more than a hundred times bigger than what he planted.
They seem to be worshipping the tree or something. Nathan can’t really quite guess from just the image.
Nathan took a glance at the Miracle Tree in front of him, then confirmed that the tree in the images might really be a Miracle Tree.
Because of this, a suspicion appeared in Nathan’s mind, “Does this tree have a consciousness?”
When he thought of this, Nathan remembered that it was actually the seed of the Miracle Tree that took him here.
Nathan’s suspicion suddenly increased.
He got up from the ground and walked towards the tree again.
Looking at it seriously, in a low voice, Nathan said, “… Hey, can you hear me?”
He waited for a minute but there was no reaction.
Feeling doubtful, he tried it again.
“Miracle Tree, if you can understand my words can you wave your branches?”
Waiting expectantly, Nathan was met with another disappointment as the Miracle Tree still did not show any response.
Nathan sighed, “Hais… I must be crazy thinking that a tree would have consciousness.”
Turning around, Nathan was about to go back to his seat when…
*Rustle*
The Miracle Tree behind him started swaying left and right as if being blown by the wind.
Nathan foot paused in the air as he froze after hearing the sound coming from behind him.
Stiffly turning to look behind him, he saw that the Miracle Tree is actually moving it’s branches.
“Wow…” Nathan exclaimed with widened eyes, he muttered,”So you really do have a consciousness…”
At the same time, a feeling that Nathan found familiar appeared inside him.
It was the unknown power used by the Miracle Tree before to pull him.
That unknown power went to his head and suddenly, Nathan was able to hear a gentle motherly voice inside his head.
{Hello, human child.}
Nathan felt like he kept getting surprised about a lot of things today, so he forced himself to calm down.
Acting calmly, he responded to the voice, “Hello, you’re the Miracle Tree, correct?”
{That’s right. I am indeed the Miracle Tree.}
Getting an affirmative answer, Nathan smiled, “Then, can I ask you a question?”
{Go on. I will answer your question if I can do so.}
Taking a deep breath, Nathan asked what was on his mind.
“What did you do to me? You did not even tell me before you did it.”
There was a serious expression on Nathan’s face.
The Miracle Tree seems a little surprised at Nathan’s question now,
{Were you not informed when you’re in the control room before?}
