Chapter 12: Who's Going to Mess Around?
Inside the canyon.
A large tree with a flourishing appearance suddenly has a 'weird' situation:
I don't know when all the leaves on it turned red, and the branches and leaves began to droop slightly, which was a little weird.
"What's going on?"
Charlotte exclaimed, very uncomfortable.
He looked at himself and felt the changes in his body:
"Buzz." A strange energy that had never been seen before was spreading from the center of the tree, like a stream of warm water flowing away, spreading towards the base and branches of the tree......
This feeling is a little uncomfortable, as if my chest is hot.
No, it seems that the heart inside is the heart of the tree that is out of order!!
It didn't take long for Charlotte to lose all her strength, and all the roots on the ground fell down, scaring away several small pets.
The scattered roots ceased their activity on their own, and the tree body completely stopped absorbing energy.
"Could it be that because of the continuous escalation, my mutation process has accelerated?"
Charlotte's mind was full of thoughts.
Just when he sensed that something was 'wrong'.
"Not good!!"
Charlotte's consciousness became more and more blurred, and she felt like she was drowsy at night.
Soon he was completely unconscious, and he fell into a coma uncontrollably......
Time passed quietly minute by minute.
Under the shroud of the alternation of day and night, this large tree with red leaves always maintains a state of slumber with a low arc.
A lot of small animals are constantly coming and going to the canyon.
They sit quietly in the surrounding clearing, noisy, craving light gold liquid food.
Mother tree, why did it become like this?
Why, it still doesn't give us food?
Because the mangrove tree doesn't move at all, or even produces any resin, that's a big deal.
A lot of small animals are constantly spinning, and the little heads have big doubts.
Human patience is limited, let alone an animal with a straight line of thought?
Hours passed.
There are acute, resin-addicted animals that want to riot and launch attacks on the tree mother.
A red-haired boar kicked the ground with all its might, and let out an impatient cry,
"Goo~!"
It loves resin so much that if you can take a puff, you won't be afraid to get hurt for it.
The red-haired boar rushed out, followed by several small animals, all of whom wanted to eat the sweet delicacy.
There was a chaotic movement, and many gentle and tame critters screamed.
They watched this scene happen, and they didn't dare to do anything.
This is normal for the small pets present.
In the animal world, anti-boss fights are normal, and can be seen almost every day in the jungle.
At this moment, a relatively tall golden figure suddenly rushed out.
"Hoo-hoo!"
The monkey boss used his brute strength to directly overturn the red-haired boar and let the other party roll on the ground for half a circle.
"Goo!" The latter's head was full of broken grass, and he stared at him with a fierce gaze in shock.
Several small animals in the back, blindfolded by the delicacy, also screamed and cheered.
"Whew!" The monkey boss bared his teeth and grinned, stretched out his slender arms and kept roaring, and it had the momentum of 'you will fight if you want to fight'.
Protecting the Mother Tree is the work of its own consciousness, not controlled by domination.
The red-haired boar was a little intimidated and took a half step back.
It was not yet an adult, and it was losing to this big monkey in size alone.
The red-haired boar walked along, staring at his opponent, ready to strike again.
"Wow!!" There was a loud bark, and the black hound ran menacingly, its tail straight.
It is a timber wolfdog breed with sharp and pointed teeth, a muscular body, and a shiny black coat.
The second dog's performance is also very fierce, with his face full of wrinkled canine teeth exposed, as if he wants to bite the other party's eggs before he stops.
Two against one?
Isn't this a bully of a pig!
I can't beat it~!
Slipped away!!
The red-haired boar's eyes were timid, his legs and stomach trembled very angrily, and then he turned around and ran away without hesitation.
The little followers who were shouting behind also fled in panic.
After scaring away the troublemakers, leave the canyon.
"Baba ——!!"
The old ambassador beat his chest, raised his head and let out a vicious cry, pulling his throat hard.
It learned this trick from some apes in the woods, and has the effect of asserting status and warning other animals.
In the eyes of many animals.
The meaning of the monkey boss is obvious, that is, to protect the mother tree.
In its heart, he is the second in size, and he is the chief little brother of the tree mother here, and everyone should be obedient.
Hmph, you little ones.
Even if I want to eat resin, I'll be the first to eat it!
The monkey boss's howling performance really frightened and forced many animals to retreat.
Although they have a love for psychedelic resins, they have not yet reached the point of 'risking their lives'.
This time.
The five cronies led by the monkey boss came out one after another to defend and maintain order.
Golden snub-nosed monkeys, black hounds, Gu firebirds, spotted red pigs, black shadow cats.
They all consider themselves to be the children of the Mother Tree, since they have been trained and sheltered by slavery.
Especially after taking Mystic Resin for a long time......
Not only have they become smarter, but they also have the character of loyal dogs at heart.
At the beginning, Charlotte would accept them as cronies, mainly because these five little guys were closest to them and could do things well.
In these perilous times, the guardian mentality has made them forget about their resin addiction.
Once a critter is causing trouble?
The monkey boss took the lead in biting each other alive, and the corpse was thrown directly in front of the tree mother as a warning.
The five cronies are all quite large and strong.
The monkey boss alone has a height of about 1.3 meters when he stands upright, which is comparable to an ordinary gorilla.
The law of the jungle in nature remains unchanged for eternity.
The strong are qualified to be the leader, and the only thing the weak can do is to submit and accept.
Most of the animals here are juvenile animals.
Even if you have the heart to snatch the resin, you don't have the guts!
They are all holding on to the show, and if it is good, they rush over to pick it up.
This is actually quite similar to human beings.
Afterwards, Charlotte was also grateful to the five cronies, often giving them extra resin as a reward, and would not force them to forage for food.
You become a tree yourself, you can't move, and you can't do many things.
But if you have cronies, it will be much more convenient.
"Babble!!"
The monkey boss led the team, after driving away the small animals that made trouble several times.
The whole canyon finally calmed down.
The whole result:
Among the troublemakers, three animals died, and the corpses were in the wilderness.
As for the team of cronies, only the monkey boss and the wild spotted red pig were slightly injured, and they were not enough to affect their actions.
Later, after ingesting the resin of the mother tree, the wound healed quickly.
