Episode 247 Tree Mother -2-
The mutants also opened their mouths wide.
“World Tree?”
“World Tree!”
A look of disbelief on everyone’s face.
“Isn’t that a liar?”
“But it’s black.”
“No matter how much you are black, there is nothing that cannot be done.”
“If it were possible to become the World Tree, the Great Mother would become the World Tree herself.”
“There has never been a World Tree on Earth, except for one tree over in Northern Europe.”
“That also burned down during Ragnarok?”
“Geumseong-ah. Even for you, you went too far.”
Even the giant bear has a skeptical look on its face.
“The World Tree… … You. What is that? The World Tree is a proper deity. It is a level that the Great Mother must live for tens of thousands of years to reach.”
Only one person reacted positively.
Just a skeleton snake.
He looks at me with eyes that say he trusts me, eyes that drip with trust.
“I believe in the Black Star. Look at me.”
The skeleton snake pointed to its chest.
“It was the Sword Saint who turned me into an android when I was going wild. Several children have also become androids through that method and are attending school in the city. I believe in him. If it’s the Sword Saint, it might be possible to turn our Godmother into a World Tree.”
“It’s certainly amazing that you cured the skeleton snake… … .”
“Hey. No matter what, that’s not right.”
“Mutating a mutant and making the Godmother a complete deity are two different things. Two different things.”
Everyone would think so.
But if it seemed impossible, I wouldn’t have brought it up in the first place.
I’ve done it a lot.
Raising a god.
It was one of the updated contents in Episode 9, Dimensional Rift.
Among them was one that raised the tree gnome of this very monster village.
Similarly, there were also ways to raise a divine being and a dragon king.
Unfortunately, I can’t raise Red to be the Dragon King.
Swish.
Right next to the giant bear.
A bud sprouted and grew into a thin branch, forming a tree in front of me.
A tree branch rustling cautiously.
It seems to be the tree godmother’s way of expressing her intentions.
The movement resembled a puppy tilting its head.
I shook my head forcefully.
“it’s possible.”
Knock knock knock.
The tree branches sway more and more to the left and right.
You want me to explain further?
I held up three fingers.
“Let me explain it simply. Godmother, a tree needs three elements to grow: light, water, and nutrients. Even though Godmother is a deity, as long as the root is a tree, this does not change. Is that correct?”
Knock knock knock.
The branches move up and down.
That is, positive.
“It would take a tremendous amount of time for the Great Mother to grow in a normal way. This is because she needs a tremendous amount of light, water, and nutrients. It would take at least ten thousand years to gather enough to ascend. In other words, if you can provide that much light, water, and nutrients, the Great Mother can ascend in a short period of time without spending ten thousand years.”
“uh…….”
“Is that really the case?”
“Now that I hear it, it sounds plausible.”
Evaluation of mutants.
The godmother’s reaction was the same.
After a while of silence, the tree branches began to nod up and down again.
That is, this time again, positive.
I laughed once and felt empowered.
After changing the characteristics.
Instill different characteristics into each finger.
On the first finger, the highest flower bloomed, and on the third finger, the earth bloomed.
Only the second finger is empty.
“With this power, I will replace the sun, with this power, I will replace the nutrients. Oh, and the water will be provided by the goddess of the sky river over there. She used to be the goddess of the Nile.”
[That’s why you brought me here.]
“Yes, you can. I’m not asking you to give me the source of the goddess. Just give me pure water, the element of water.”
[That’s easy. But is it possible? Just looking at it, it seems like it would consume an enormous amount of power. I’ve experienced your flames before, and they’re sufficient, but the power of the third land seems very weak.]
I never thought the Earth’s characteristics would be evaluated as being shabby.
Actually, that’s right.
Compared to the highest of the highest, it is incomparably inferior to the water element produced directly by the river goddess.
So I snapped my fingers.

“Goddess, please open the hangar.”
[Why the hangar… … Hmm? What is this? Why is there something like this?]
Hangar of the Sky River.
It’s fully loaded with cargo.
Dragon’s flesh and dragon’s blood.
Dragon bones, horns, scales, nerves, and other miscellaneous items that I had not yet processed.
There’s more.
The corpse of the North Pole.
A significant portion has been left to the incomprehensible, but much still remains.
Most of it is of little value, but that doesn’t matter.
Because there is too much to use as fertilizer.
Yeah. Fertilizer.
The corpses of golden dragons, corpse dragons, and arctic dragons are used as fertilizer.
The properties of the earth merely serve as a lubricant to mix it all together.
Of course, this alone is not enough.
I dug through my golf bag and pulled out a jar.
“Water fountain!”
“Hey buddy, why do you have that? I thought the goblins had it.”
“It’ll take a long time to explain. I’ll tell you later.”
“Okay, okay.”
The other mutants were dumbfounded, but the giant bear and the skeleton snake looked surprised.
I put the nectar in without thinking.
Copy as is.
Not only nectar, but also elixir was extracted continuously.
On the one hand, I used my intuition to examine the flowerpot.
Then, when you start feeling uneasy, change your traits.
[Reverse]
Just give me one room.
As the bad luck gauge that had been rising is gradually nullified, you have to start over from the beginning.
The eyes of the skeleton snake that was watching shook.
“Has fate been turned around?”
“It’s one of my abilities.”
“There was no such thing!”
“I just happened to get it.”
“Tojeong is worthy of being named. It has been worth carrying Tojeong’s ring in my heart for hundreds of years.”
I laid out on the floor dozens of bottles of nectar and elixir, and flower pots.
The fish-men carried the pile of corpses, squealing.
A pile of rare materials.
No, even the word rare is not enough.
It’s almost like a legendary grade material.
I proudly pointed to the ingredients.
“How about it? Goddess? And Godmother? Isn’t this enough?”
The tree branches moved dazzlingly.
What are you saying?
The priest, a giant bear, made a strange expression.
As I was stuttering like a Morse code interpreter, the river goddess, frustrated, recited the words of the Tree Mother.
[We need 99 types of rare metals, such as celestial gold, silver, and world iron, as well as 99 types of rare materials, such as demon blood, angel tears, and otherworldly fluids?]
“I need more than I thought.”
[So you thought promotion would be easy?]
are you okay.
That’s why you have subordinates to take advantage of in times like this.
I tapped the dragon monarch’s crown.
The built-in computer understands my will perfectly and writes down the command.
The list of ingredients the goddess recited a little while ago.
I put that together and shot it at someone.
A reply came right away.
[I’ll get ready and go right away.]
“How long will it take? If you don’t have it, just bring what you have.”
[I will be there within 2 hours.]
“2 hours? Is that okay?”
[Hehehe, who am I? Aren’t I the best player, the best player? Please wait a moment.]
Let’s say they are rare metals.
There are a lot of them in the Shinwon Market and they will be piled up in the Taeyang Tower Auction House as well.
But angel tears?
This is the main ingredient of the elixir.
It is actually harder to obtain than the elixir.
There are many finished elixirs available, but Angel’s Tears are hard to find outside of the Great Labyrinth.
Anyway, the best player is the best player.
It wasn’t for nothing that I saved your life by giving you the elixir.
Perhaps the best player has been collecting rare materials like this in small quantities on a regular basis.
“The materials you mentioned will arrive within two hours.”
“really?”
“sincerity?”
The mutants look in disbelief.
On the other hand, the goddess floating in the sky said as if it was a given.
[That’s all you need to do to become a swordsman. A swordsman who can’t even get a few materials isn’t worth being my ally.]
[Long live the Black Star!]
[Long live the alliance!]
The fish-people also screamed and moaned.
I understand everything because of the blessing of the river, but the mutants look very uncomfortable.
I looked warily at the level 7 fish-humans standing behind me as if escorting me, and also at the fish-humans leaning out from the deck of the Sky River.
Anyway, you said it would take 2 hours.
Even that time was a waste.
I poured the highest level magic potion into the flowerpot.
I duplicated the potion while using the reverse technique appropriately, and a mountain of potion was created on one side.
‘I think this will be enough.’
I also worked hard to replicate nectar and elixir.
My hands are sore from repeatedly picking up and taking out things from the jar.
It would be better if the cooldown was shorter.
The skeleton snake crouched down next to me and watched me.
“My friend would make a lot of money if he just sold that.”
“Well? To be honest, I’m past the point where I’m concerned about money.”
“That sounds good.”
“Why? Do you need money? You must have a lot of money. You’ve been living for hundreds of years.”
“I don’t need money, but I need some nectar.”
The skeleton snake’s eyes were full and focused on the piled nectar.
It looks that way to me too.
After becoming an android, I don’t know what happened, but my trait set changed a bit.
The level also went from level 6 to level 7.
Nectar is the best for adapting to your body and characteristics.
I blew the flute without missing a beat.
“Then won’t you work on my ship? I’ll give you nectar.”
“Nectar? How much?”
“10 bottles a month.”
“10 bottles? Really?”
“Oh. I don’t care whether you eat it or sell it.”
“Really? You give me 10 bottles a month?”
“Yeah. I’ll give you a separate salary. You’ll have to eat and buy clothes too.”
“Okay! Friend, no, boss! I will be loyal like a real gentleman!”
Not like a dog, but like a scholar.
I just waved my hand moderately.
It would be better to take him with you as a sailor rather than calling him an ally sometimes.
Other mutants also slowly approached.
“Hmm, hmm.”
“Mr. Black Star. Don’t you need an electric human?”
“I use some magic… … .”
“Do you know the power of the Three-Eyed One? They say that they are called the Three-Eyed One because they can see the past, present, and future!”
I answered clearly.
“Level 5 is 1 bottle per month, Level 6 is 3 bottles per month, and Level 7 is 10 bottles per month. Other salaries and benefits are subject to separate negotiation.”
“call!”
“okay!”
“Thank you, boss! Loyalty, loyalty!”
While the mutants were bending over, only the giant bear was sucking its thumb.
“That’s too bad. I want to be hired too, but I have a lot of work to do.”
“Hey, village chief. What’s going on? You always eat red bean shaved ice and ramen.”
“A lot! I have to pray to the Godmother every day. I pray to the Godmother every day so that she can protect us. Do you understand?”
“That’s true.”
“The village chief has worked hard.”
“Because the godmother is still weak… … .”
That’s how it is now.
Mutants and tree mothers have a symbiotic relationship.
Without the magical power that the giant bear offers every day, the tree godmother would gradually deteriorate rather than grow.
But… … .
Will it still be like this after it grows into a world tree?
Tututututu.
I heard the rotor noise.
A swarm of large magic science helicopters was approaching.
Helicopters with the four letters [Warrior Construction] and [Warrior Security] printed on them without any thought.
Did my company have helicopters like that?
As I was scratching my cheek in embarrassment, a loud shout rang out.
“teacher!”
Baek So-rin sticks her head out.
Why is your voice so loud when you don’t have any post-mortem characteristics?
It wasn’t just Baek So-rin.
Following that, Janet, Carly, and Seo Woo-jin also waved.
Even in the other helicopter, Kim Cheol-kwon, Kim Ma-beop, and Kim Sa-je were riding.
Taang!
As expected, Baek So-rin is impatient.
Just jump down.
The same goes for the other disciples.
Even Kim Cheol-kwon, Kim Ma-beop, and Kim Sa-je were like that.
Who on earth did you learn from?
I smiled bitterly and waved.
“It’s been a while. How have you been?”
“teacher!”
Baek So-rin landed as if she was making a hero landing, and her eyes lit up.
“You said you were calling us! Why didn’t you call us!”
We’re talking about the Great Rift.
Immediately after collecting the Kalaratree.
I left my three disciples in the Great Rift to train them in real combat, and returned alone.
At that time, I reached level 7.
I thought the zombie apocalypse was going to happen as planned.
So when the time came I was going to call the three of them, but that went wrong, so I ended up intercepting the High Priest in the Eastern Pacific and flying all the way to Sao Paulo, Brazil.
As a result, it turned out to be a lie.
“I’m sorry. I thought it would happen in Seoul. I never dreamed that the Phantom King would show up in Sao Paulo.”
“For something like that, you move incredibly fast!”
“It was possible because I moved alone. I didn’t have time to call you guys or anything.”
“Tch. Since you saved 30 million people, we’ll let you off easy. But next time, you have to come with us! No, we’re going to stick close to you and not leave you. Got it?”
“Haha. Then I should be grateful.”
My growth is almost finished.
Level 8, where the final battle will take place, is just around the corner.
After receiving blood from the Tree Mother, go to the Great Rift and obtain the magic cores of four alien species, and you’ll have all the materials ready.
By my calculations, I have less than a month left until level 8.
He calmly observed his disciples and the Kim party.
All four are just before level 7.
The same goes for the three members of the Kim party.
Although not as good as his disciples, he seems likely to reach level 6 soon.
I trained everyone to death while I was wandering around the world.
“That’s great. I needed a lot of help anyway. Since you’re all here, please help me out.”
“Your Majesty, what should I do?”
Kim Cheol-kwon is the most active.
Because to get to level 6, you need my help more than anyone else.
“First of all.”
I looked around the monster village.
The entire monster village is a giant tree.
The ivy vines that formed the walls of each house and the flowers hanging from each vine were dancing in the air with anticipation.
The words the tree godmother wanted to hear the most.
He clearly stated the reason why he had called Choi Seon-su.
“Let’s start by kneading the fertilizer.”
“Uh… … fertilizer?”
The first step to growing the world tree.
It was fertilizer dough.
It is more efficient to do it with others than to do it alone.
And of course, of course.
It’s much easier to subcontract than to do it yourself.
“Uh. I’ll give you some work clothes. Change into them.”
Are you feeling chills in the middle of summer?
Baek So-rin shivered.
