Strongest Tree 89 Chapter 88

Not only that, they insisted to split up so that they will be able to get more treasures. He doesn't want them to enter the tower but as all of them are Grand Knights they have a higher chance of surviving inside

"My Lord, we are sure!" King said as all of them were filled with determination and battle intent. "I'll become stronger Master to help all of you!" Calter sweetly said and Kence rub the child's head. The kid immediately became comfortable and smiled at him

"Okay, I won't stop you but I only want you to promise one thing. Return alive! I don't care what treasure you can encounter just return alive!" The others nodded and they all entered the tower

They split up into three teams each with two members. Cesar was with Ivy, King with his son Calter and lastly, Kence with Anna. They head into four separate directions and explored the Forest of Wonders

Looking at their backs Kence sighed and hope that all of them will return alive. A hand hold his and he looked at Anna. "Don't worry Kence, they are all strong. They can survive this!"

Kence squeezed Anna's hand tightly and became a bit comfortable. He knew well his family's strength, they are all top-notch Mystics!

Ivy has the Rainbowshade Flower and has great poisonous power

Cesar prepared with him a lot of Runes for the battle

King aside from Kence has the greatest fighting skill

Calter, even as a kid wield great strength from being a Virtue Angel

Anyone of them has the power comparable to the top expert of big and powerful cities. Normal Supernaturals at their level was not their match!

"A flower like you is not suitable to this dangerous environment" Kence teased which made Anna rolled her eyes. "Don't underestimate me, I'm not an ornamental woman!" After saying this Anna activated her skill and a bow appeared on her hands that she use to shot an energy arrow on the fallen charging at them

"Wow, quite fierce!" Kence said while laughing. "Don't slack off, I might gain more treasures than you!" Anna said arrogantly and attacking the other fallens around

"Yes, ma'am!" Kence said before activating his skills to kill. Suddenly, the two heard bird cries and a flock of hawks appeared and went to attack them

The two just a looked at each other and gained a mutual understanding. Kence activated his Nature's Battle Armor and his sword slashed the neck of the fallens around, harvesting their life and only leaving an Energy Pearl

Anna on the other hand shot an arrow every second that accurately hit the hawks. One shot and one hawk was killed. For the weaker hawks the arrow was even able to completely pierce their heads and the remaining power behind the arrow struck another hawk

The two were in sync and even though this was their first time collaborating like this they had a pretty good and solid teamwork. As Kence was more powerful his fight with the fallens ended earlier and he went to help Anna killing the hawks

After a few minutes, there weren't any other creature around them and only Energy Pearls were left. "For a flower you're not that bad but I still killed more than you!" Kence can't stopped himself from teasing Anna again who looked at him in dissatisfaction

"So c.o.c.ky!" Anna said through gritted teeth. "Next time, I'll perform better than you hmph!" Kence just chuckled and went to collect the spoils of war

"Oh?" His eyes lit up and he saw a stone emanating a corrupted aura. He picked it up and asked the system to give its description and usage

"Item: Corrupted Soul Stone

A stone infused with corrupted soul power. It can strengthen one's soul but one must survive from the soul attack after absorbing the stone"

"A treasure!" Not just a treasure but it can actually make a soul stronger. Soul is even harder to strengthen than the physical body, everything that can improve one's soul is a treasure! It looks like he hit an early jackpot

Aside from Energy Pearls, it was extremely rare for the beasts to drop another item. But he just entered the tower and immediately had one. It seems like his luck this time is quite good

Kence showed it to Anna in an arrogant way. "This is from the fallen I killed. 1 to Kence, 0 to Anna!"

Anna rolled her eyes in annoyance "The fight is not yet over don't celebrate early!"

"Hahaha! Whatever you say"

Anna stomped her feet on the ground and run wishing to encounter another creature for the 'monster drop'

Kence immediately chased the woman but his face darkened when he sensed something. His figure cut the air and went to Anna, he hugged the woman and moved her body away causing Anna to shriek in shock

From the area where Anna was before, the ground trembled and a three meter tall worm came out from it. Not only was it a gigantic worm but its cultivation base was at the early stage of Grand Knight!

The frequency of a Grand Knights appearing inside the tower was so high. To those who are lucky they won't encounter a Grand Knight their whole 7 days inside the tower. But if they were unlucky, they would meet a few Grand Knight everyday!

"Flower, you're still not alert enough" Kence said while shaking his head. "I-I know that there's a worm I'm just waiting for the time to strike!" Anna bluffed angrily before removing Kence's hands on her body

"Watch me kill that worm hmph!"

"[Innate Skill: Nature's Blessing!]" Green aura surrounded Anna which increased her speed by at least two times. She poured energy on her bow and an arrow was shot out from it. The arrow pierced the worm's body but it was not enough to kill it

Even a fully grown man can't hug the whole body of this worm as it was thick. The worm was angered and crawled towards Anna. Even with its ma.s.sive body ma.s.s the worm was actually fast

Fortunately, with Anna's skill the worm has no hope of catching up to her. She run around while firing arrows to the worm as soon as she has the chance. Nature's Blessing along with Nature's Bow has a superb combination!

The great penetrative ability of the arrow with her increased speed made Anna a terrifying foe. As long as you are not as fast as she is she can just run around while firing her arrows at you

Too bad, although the arrow's penetrative ability is high but the worm's body was too thick and she can't deal substantial wound on it even though there were already more than ten wounds on its body

Anna frowned as she want to end the fight as soon as possible to show off to Kence. "Attack its mouth!" Kence shouted

"I know, that's what I'm going to do!" Anna lied shamelessly and shot an arrow towards the worm's open mouth. Thankfully, its only means of attack was biting its enemy. The worm's mouth was always open and became an easy target

Another arrow was shot from Anna's bow and this time the arrow flew to the worm's mouth damaging the insides of it. "Explode!" Anna shouted at the energy based arrow inside the worm exploded making a mess on the worm's flesh

Anna excitedly went to the worm's body who was currently glowing and shrinking. The worm instead of leaving an Energy Pearl instead left a drop of some liquid

Kence saw it and was shocked "How can you be so lucky? It's actually a liquid armor!" That drop of liquid was the same the one that Kence got from killing the fire salamander

One must know that it took a lot of effort to kill that salamander and he even lost Alice because of it. But this worm was extremely easy to deal with yet it dropped something that valuable

Anna checked the liquid's attribute to the system even though Kence already explained what it was before. Even she, was shock to read its description

"I-It can absorb 40% of a mid stage Grand Knight's attack!" Anna exclaimed which made Kence even more shock feel some bitterness

"d.a.m.n!" Kence cursed. His was of lower quality than what Anna got yet it took more trouble to get it. Even then he was happy for Anna and thanked lady luck

In Kence's previous one week stay in the tower there were days that he didn't gained anything aside from Energy Pearls. But now they actually gained two treasures in no more than 1 hour of entering this tower. Just what s.h.i.t luck they have today?

However, it seems like their luck only worked for that time and they didn't gained much the rest of the day aside from the Energy Pearls

----

On top of a building, Sun's figure suddenly appeared. This was his first time exiting the tower. The one week period is the time you need to stay before being able to exit the tower but it doesn't mean that you can't stay for more than a week

It just means that you can't exit if you were only in the tower for less than a week. After a week its up for you to decide when to exit. It wasn't his plan to exit the tower yet for the opportunities inside but he got one hour gla.s.s of hope and that's why he decided to return. They suffer a lot of loses in the war with the fallens. Especially as one Grand Knight betrayed him!

Sun has a cold aura around him as if even a small thing can make his anger erupt. Well, why wouldn't he? The woman he like run away from G.o.d knows where! Even with the G.o.d's Tech manpower they can't easily find someone in this apocalyptic time

He walked to a stair from the rooftop and head down. Anyone who saw him immediately gave way and didn't dare obstruct his way. His reputation was spread too wide in the whole G.o.d's Tech City and even to the other cities. Before, he already has a bad temper but ever since Anna escaped his temper become more violent. He won't hesitate to hurt anyone who displeased him even if it's just simple and little things

"You, come here!" Sun shouted at one of the stuff in the building. It was a timid looking man which was only at the Warrior Rank. He was one of the junior researchers so his strength was not that high. The man trembled and went to Sun's side fearfully

"Y-yes sir?" Sun threw a few inches long hour gla.s.s to the man and said coldly "take that and decide when to use it!" The young researcher immediately nodded his head and heaved a sigh of relief as it didn't looked like he offended this demon

Sun exited the building and flew in the air arriving at a certain villa. The guards there immediately stiffened at seeing him but they didn't dare to say anything

Sun entered the villa and saw the beautiful woman, Annie. Anna's sister and only blood relative in this world. After seeing Sun the woman immediately broke into smiles and became happy

"Sun!" Annie said happily

"Cut the c.r.a.p!" Sun shouted and pulled Annie's wrist and head to one of the rooms in the villa. Annie was hurt but she just let the man do what he wants

Annie was flung on the bed and Sun immediately went on top of her. Sun violently ripped Annie's top clothes revealing the white flesh underneath but she has some bruises on her body. He wasn't satisfied though and ripped the clothes on her lower body too

Even all of her undergarments were destroyed by Sun's hand. Sun's clothes retracted and turned into a liquid that he threw away. He actually also has liquid armor

Another round of ravaging happened inside that room. Cries of pain with only a bit of pleasure came out from Annie's mouth while Sun was letting out a manly yet angry moan

As Annie has feelings for Sun and love her sister she offered her body to the man to appease his anger. She hoped that in this way Sun will love her and leave her sister alone. Too bad, there wasn't much progress
