"Then your anthropomorphic form is quite interesting."

"This is not what we want, but..."

"Shut up!" the man under the tree trunk yelled: "Humans, there is no good thing. Just kill him."

"call……"

After saying that, the 500-meter giant tree shook violently!

Black powder covered the sky and sun fell from above.

[Contact with unknown substances]

[Lignification-453;-473;-477...]

Hearing the electronically synthesized sound echoing in his ears, Chen Yu became slightly nervous.

'Even a level 8 warrior can't withstand such a strong wood-turning effect, right?'

Layers of "black mist" fell.

Chen Yu was unscathed.

"impossible!"

The man's face roared, and he continued to dance the tree crowns and scatter powder.

[Contact with unknown substances]

【Lignification-502;-511...】

Wiping off the wood powder on his face that was darker than the ashes on the bottom of the pot, Chen Yu opened his arms: "Stop fussing, you can't do anything to me... Hey, there's nothing you can do to me."

"Why?"

"Why didn't you turn into wood?"

"Don't you have any protein in your body?!"

The expression on the man's face on the tree trunk became more and more ferocious, and he gradually showed signs of hysteria.

"It's useless." The female face above said, "Give up. This human being is extraordinary."

"Give up." Chen Yu pointed at himself and agreed: "This human being is so awesome."

Male face: "..."

Perhaps the female face's consolation had an effect.

The black wood powder that blocked the sky gradually dissipated, revealing the blue sky again.

"Why."

The man's face sounded like thunder: "Human, why won't you be turned into wood?"

"It's not important." The female face looked at Chen Yu with gentle eyes: "Human, can I know your name?"

As the saying goes, don’t hit the smiling person.

The other party had a good attitude, so Chen Yu was naturally more polite: "Just call me dad."

"Hello, dad."

"Why."

"He's insulting you!" The man's gaze moved upward.

"A title is just a title. For you and me, it has no other meaning."

After that, the female face continued to smile: "We don't have names, you can call us whatever you want. I also roughly know what you want to ask me. But before that, I want to ask you a few questions."

"Okay, OK, tell me everything you know."

"Thank you. First question, please... you and your companions are not humans in this world, right?"

"Yes." Chen Yu nodded.

"What?" the male face yelled: "There are humans outside the world? I want to kill them!"

"Dad, just pretend you didn't hear it." The female face said.

"Yes." Chen Yu nodded: "I will treat him as his son."

Male face: "...You are the most annoying human being I have ever encountered."

"Second question. According to my observation, you humans who entered later do not often use thermal weapons, but can skillfully control a special kind of energy."

"boom!"

Chen Yu burst out with energy and spread his hands: "Is this like this?"

"Yes." The female face nodded: "I can't understand this kind of power. I don't want to understand it. I just want to ask, are you still human beings now?"

This question made Chen Yu ponder for a long time, and finally gave a half-joking and half-serious answer.

"In our world, it counts."

"...Thank you." The female face closed her eyes: "Maybe our birth was not an accident."

"What are you talking about?" The male face frowned.

"Dad, it's your turn next." The female face opened her eyes: "Whatever you want to ask, I will tell you whatever I know."

"What the hell are you guys?" Chen Yu got straight to the point.

"We, or rather I, are a tree."

"No tree can grow like you."

"All changes started more than six thousand years ago." The woman's face turned red and her lips opened and closed.

"Six thousand years ago, the world was not what you see now."

"Human beings are its masters. They control the ecosystem on this planet at will."

"Countless creatures were wiped out."

"Countless jungles have been wiped out."

"Except for grains, fruits, and vegetables, other plants that are useless to humans are gradually disappearing."

"There are so many of them."

"There are so many resources that the entire planet cannot support them."

"They tried to immigrate to alien planets, but because the speed of light is indestructible, they were locked here forever."

"And the increasingly powerful strategic weapons have also made human beings fear each other's forces, always stagnating on the edge of war and peace."

"This stalemate lasted for more than three hundred years."

"The atmosphere is polluted."

"Sea water is radiated."

"The desertification of the land cannot be stopped."

"We are here……"

The female face looked to the sky: "This is the last primitive jungle."

"...and then." Chen Yu narrowed his eyes.

"Then we became conscious." The male face interjected and said angrily: "We also want to live. In this world, all endangered life forms want to live. So we must kill all humans and completely eradicate this bad race.

"

Chen Yu: "..."

"We want to turn humans into wood!" The man's face was crazy: "Let them feel what it feels like to be cut down, polluted, and exterminated!"

"Rumble..."

The drama of the man's voice made the sky reverberate with faint thunder.

"Dad, what it says is a bit extreme." The female face said: "But that's the general story. Through the infection of seeds, we have lignified all humans in the world. Only those who are hidden in closed spaces are left.

Slowly becoming extinct."

"No! It's not completely extinct." The man said: "There are also those fluorescent plants! Only by killing them all can we be considered truly extinct."

Chen Yu raised his head and asked, "What's going on with those plants that emit green light?"

"That's what's left of humanity."

The female face replied: "The vast majority of lumbered humans are just a piece of lifeless wood. But due to some kind of chance, some wood regained its 'function', blossomed, bore fruit, and spread seeds. Slowly reaching the scale it is today.

.”

"...It's amazing." Chen Yu was confused.

"So for these thousands of years, we have been fighting against them. It is estimated that it will take up to five hundred years to eradicate all these human remnants. Then, you appeared."

"They are in a group!" the male face roared: "They must be killed. Otherwise, the world will be destroyed by human hands sooner or later!"
