Chapter 1179 First Battle at Vogel
Chapter 1179 First Battle at Vogel
Upon hearing the immature little plant's questions, Minos answered without delay. "Naturally, I want to have someone so strong and with such potential in my territory!"
"You may not be an exquisite warrior, but with your unparalleled senses, you will be able to help my forces maintain vigilance under certain areas."
"At the same time, spiritual medicines grow more easily near sentient plant organisms. So, I have many benefits to having you by my side." Minos smiled, approaching one of the branches of that plant.
"Ahh~" Feeling Minos' touch, it let out a brief groan of surprise, not expecting this human to touch it without warning.
"But... How can I believe you won't eat me?" It timidly asked.
"Simple, if I wanted to eat you, I wouldn't ask you to give me a part of your body. I would simply eat everything in front of me without asking for permission." He said in a sincere tone while Kyla watched the situation with interest.
To this young Nine-tailed Fox, that little plant was nothing but food. So, she could not help but look at it with interest since this was her first time seeing food talking.
The little plant saw a giant drop of saliva drip from the half-open mouth of that creature with colorful fur and shivered.
"If I give you a small piece of me, will you promise not to poison me?" It asked Minos, feeling it was better to give in once and for all and save itself from that animal.
As long as Minos did not poison it, it would be fine, even if it lost a piece of itself.
And it did not make sense that such a human would approach it just to take a branch from it and then poison it.
If he wanted to kill it, it would be better just to do it once and for all.
With that in mind, it was already willing to offer a small part of itself to this group led by Minos.
"Sure, I promise the God of Trees that I won't hurt you on purpose!" He said with a smile on his face as he quoted the most famous entity among plant organisms.
The God of Trees had been a true God, one of the first to reach level 100 among all living beings in the Spiritual World during the oldest era, with records still existing.
Few knew of this entity, but Henricus Longus had left memories about such a being for Minos.
"All right then, I will leave you a small branch with 1% of my being." It said, pleased to have heard Minos' oath. "As long as you do as promised, it will be able to grow and become even stronger than me."
Then its flowering branches moved through that area until, after a strange dance, a small fraction of it, the size of a human hand, broke off, forming a small flower.
It glowed intensely and gradually began to emit a spiritual fluctuation similar to that of a being at level 41.
That was the magical ability of these plant organisms!
They could split up into fractions of themselves and send smaller parts to cultivate at a distance without sacrificing their own power.
This Light As Air had only decreased its spiritual energy and soul power by 1%, something insignificant to it. Still, it had produced a miniature version of itself that was already at level 41!
That was not much, but since it could cultivate at the same speed as its main part and eventually add up the powers of both, that was a remarkable feat worthy of envy!
Plus, the glorious Light As Air could simultaneously keep her consciousness in different places, being particularly powerful in surveillance and communication.
Minos looked at the little flower in his hands and massaged it with one of his fingers, feeling pleased that this little creature did not make it difficult for him. "Very well, you will not regret it."
"Once we return to my territory, I will plant your little part in a place that will be very rich in the future!"
The little plant felt good to notice the excellent humor in Minos' tone, which indicated that the risk of it being eaten had diminished considerably. "I will trust you..."
After that, Minos pulled the hungry Kyla from there, giving her some fruit to eat while his group returned to the road.
"Minos, you are a rascal," Ruth commented in a low voice to him as she held the flower in her hands.
Minos obviously would not take that little creature to the Spatial Kingdom since other parts of that plant away from him could sense that place and eventually spread the news.
So, it would naturally travel in their hands or with those two beasts.
Ruth continued. "Don't you think it's wrong to force that little creature to follow us? I think we could have invited it to our side in the future."
Minos said. "I gave it a chance to be by our side from the beginning. So, what's wrong with that? And we may not have time to spend here on our return, so it would be a waste to leave something so valuable in the way."
As they talked and continued to travel south, it was not long before they came across a battle on their way!
In that forested area, three great beasts were battling each other, two of them on one side and the third facing the other two.
Of these beasts, one of them was a great black and white eagle, while the other two were members of the same species, six-colored snakes.
The two snakes were at level 65, while the great eagle was at level 67.
"Bastard, you ate our brother! We're going to kill you!" One of the snakes shouted in its spiritual voice as it launched a blow with its long tail, which was more than 8 meters long.
At the same time, the sister of this creature spat its potent venom at its opponent from a different angle of attack than its brother.
Sensing the snake's blows in its surroundings, the great eagle, which was a little larger than Maida, swung its enormous wings and made gusts of wind form against its opponents.
Not only that, it opened its beak and let a high-pitched sound escape, making the surroundings tremble with such sound waves produced by it.
Amid all this, Minos' group was caught with the remaining attacks, but this fellow protected his women and beasts.
He jumped in front of his group and let the rest of the enemy attacks hit his body, which could absorb the powers behind it without difficulty.
While doing so, he used the excess energy in his body and intensified the gravity in the surroundings of the creatures in front of him, suddenly causing them to fall from their positions toward the ground.
"Ahhhhhh!" The three creatures felt like they had been pushed by an invisible force toward the ground, uncontrollably falling until they crashed into that piece of land.
But as they had fallen, the bodies of the two serpents had moved toward that of the great eagle, something that gave them the advantage to start strangling the body of that eagle.
"Bastard!"
"You dare to get in the way of my battle?" The bird shouted as it felt those two sticky beings wrapping themselves around its body, not so worried since it was stronger than the two.
With that, it had the chance to look in the direction of Minos' group and threw a deadly glare at them.
"Looks like someone wants to turn into a roast chicken..."
