Chapter 1336

Negris only felt an incomparably disgusting chill surging from its limbs and bone marrow—in short, a cold shiver—even though it was a Star God's body and didn't have such things as bone marrow.

It felt that it was no longer clean. How could such a disgusting thing actually have bloodline resonance? Who was it resonating with? Was it resonating with the dragon race?

Anthony asked in confusion: "Why smash its appendages?"

The Tree Shepherd said: "It, wants to parasitize me."

"Ah? So bold? Didn't it just hatch from the egg? It can already parasitize you?" Negris said in astonishment.

"Don't talk about just hatching; couldn't it parasitize even before it hatched? It even mastered the dragon race's bloodline resonance," Anthony said.

Just like that, chatting while waiting, not long after, the aura on that thing changed. Good, the main character had arrived.

Bloodline resonance—it couldn't be resonating with itself there, right? It must be resonating with something else. Who did it want to resonate with?

Actually, there was no need to guess; it was definitely the Trick Tree. Ang had seen its true form before, and it was exactly the same as the one that hatched from this dragon egg. From the change in aura, one could tell that the Trick Tree had come.

The Trick Tree didn't speak when it arrived; it just silently rotated its will, scanning Ang and the others.

It didn't speak, Ang didn't speak, and surprisingly, Anthony didn't speak either. They just observed silently. On the entire rock ball, only the sound of the Abyss Tree Shepherd constantly smashing the Trick Tree's branches remained.

After a long while, not knowing what it had observed, the Trick Tree said: "What do you want?"

Very good, Anthony had obtained what he wanted, so he opened his mouth to ask: "What about you? What do you want?"

Anthony didn't speak because he wanted to conduct a behavioral test. Ang had already probed the Trick Tree's true form, and they had also learned a lot of information about the Trick Tree from the Undead Dragon-Man, yet this Trick Tree knew nothing about them.

In terms of information, his side held the initiative. Then, it had been beaten up by His Majesty and even had to abandon one of its branches. It was now either very annoyed, very angry, or very calm.

If it were very calm, that would be troublesome; it would be a very difficult enemy to deal with. Unfortunately, that was not the case; it ultimately could not hold back and spoke first, which proved that it was not calm inside.

As long as there were normal emotions, then everything could be discussed.

"Leave my territory," the Trick Tree said.

"Where is your territory? The Silent Dead Sea?" Anthony asked.

"Yes," the Trick Tree said.

"Then why did you go to our territory? And kill so many of our clansmen?" Anthony asked.

The Trick Tree was silent for a while, then said: "I, don't know, it is your clansmen, I, compensate."

"How do you want to compensate?" Anthony asked.

"What do you want?" The question returned to the starting point.

Anthony wouldn't take such a loss, so he immediately said: "These are two compensations. Leaving your territory, what we want; compensation for killing the dragon clansmen, what we want. Is that what you mean?"

The Trick Tree was silent for a while, then said stiffly: "Yes."

"For leaving your territory, we want something that can mark or infect Star Flame. Items or skills are fine, as long as it can mark Star Flame," Anthony said.

The Trick Tree asked: "Mark Star Flame? How to mark? Why mark it?"

Clearly, the Trick Tree did not know about the Guman Snake's bounty, which meant it had no contact with the Guman Snake side. Could it be that it had no relationship with the Guman Snake?

When he first heard of the Trick Tree, Anthony suspected it was the Guman Snake at first. Later, he discovered that this guy's strength was far too inferior, so he suspected it was someone under the Guman Snake. But now it seemed that this Trick Tree might have no relationship with the Guman Snake; it was just a coincidence that they were both plants.

"Mark, or pollute a cluster of Star Flame, so that even if it is thrown back into a pile of Star Flame, it can be clearly distinguished. Do you have a way? If you have a way, we can leave the Silent Dead Sea," Anthony said.

The Trick Tree was silent for a while, then said: "Have, make it stop."

Anthony and the Trick Tree were talking, but the Abyss Tree Shepherd was focused on knocking off its appendages. As soon as one grew out a little, it would be smashed to prevent it from recovering.

With the Tree Shepherd interfering, the Trick Tree couldn't grow at all, and even if it had something, it couldn't take it out.

Anthony signaled the Abyss Tree Shepherd to stop temporarily. The Trick Tree, now reduced to a lump, finally had a chance to breathe. It first grew out two appendages to support its shell, then grew out other appendages one by one. Finally, supported by sixteen appendages, it cracked its mouth and smiled at everyone.

Negris dry-heaved on the spot because it saw countless constantly wriggling roots inside the Trick Tree's mouth, as if it were smiling while holding a mouthful of worms—dense and terrifying.

Anthony's face also wrinkled. This was one of the few things that could cause Anthony physiological discomfort; it wasn't just ugly, it was disgusting.

However, it was unaware of this. It revealed a smile, then extended an appendage. Soon, the appendage began to grow, head, sprout, bloom, and bear fruit. Finally, the fruit fell to the ground.

"Lacquer fruit, can extract pheromone dye. Once stained, it will cause energy bodies to produce a strange flame-color reaction, impossible to remove," the Trick Tree said.

Anthony looked at Ang. Clearly, this kind of thing exceeded his ability range; there was no way to verify it, so he could only rely on Ang.

Ang reached out and grabbed the air, grabbing the lacquer fruit from afar, and squeezed it hard to extract the juice.

He first put the juice into a stone bottle, then took out a drop, and at the same time offered three or five clusters of Star Flame, flicking the juice onto one of them.

As soon as the juice touched the Star Flame, it was vaporized by the high temperature of the Star Flame, turning into a faint cloud of smoke.

This cluster of Star Flame bore the brunt of it; its whole body was covered in smoke, and then a strange flame-color reaction indeed appeared in the Star Flame's radiance, dyeing its radiance green.

"Copper burns with a green light. Is there copper in this juice?" Negris said in shock.

No one paid it any mind; everyone was looking at the green-glowing Star Flame. Ang rubbed it together with the other Star Flames, but no matter how he rubbed, there was always a wisp of green in the Star Flame cluster.

"What is the principle behind this? Will it also glow green if it gets on us?" Negris asked curiously.

"How about I drip a drop on you to test it?" Anthony suggested.

Negris shook its head frantically; it definitely didn't want to go out with a green glow all over its body.

Anthony turned to the Trick Tree and said: "Very good, but the quantity of lacquer fruit is too small. Get more."

The Trick Tree prepared several hundred more lacquer fruits and extracted several large barrels of dye.

"Good, the deal is successful. We will leave your territory," Anthony said.

The Trick Tree emphasized: "It is you, all of you, including that glowing skeleton."

"Uh, that is not one of our people. Given the strength of that glowing skeleton, do you think he would be in a group with us?" Anthony said in a dilemma: "Besides, he didn't come to find you either. He came to find another glowing skeleton, it's just that the skeleton led him to you to distract him."

"If you know where the other glowing skeleton is, tell us. I can relay it to His Majesty, so he won't stay in your territory."
