Chapter 261: The Subverter

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Mother Tree was completely baffled.

It was left dumbfounded by Zero…

“For me? A gift? Opportunity?!”

It pointed at itself and then at the box in its arms, its face filled with disbelief.

Zero nodded, “Yes, this is the opportunity I’m giving you. What’s wrong? Don’t you want it?”

After saying this, Zero deliberately reached out, pretended to want to take the box back, “If you don’t want it, forget it, give it back to me.”

The Mother Tree startled, quickly took two steps back while holding the box and said, “1 want it! I want it!”

After saying that, it realized that Zero was teasing it…

Looking at the smiling Zero, the Mother Tree fell silent.

After a long time, it asked strangely, “You should know my abilities, right?”

Zero nodded, “1 know, you have the ability to replicate the characteristics of a certain creature infinitely with sufficient energy and the creature’s DNA.”

“It’s a very powerful and terrifying ability.”

The Mother Tree shook the box again and asked, “So, you’re not unaware of the consequences of this thing ending up in my hands, right?”

Zero smiled and asked back, “Do you think I’m aware or not?”

This question left the Mother Tree speechless.

After a long time, the Mother Tree gritted its teeth and said, “So, what do you want from me?”

Lowering its head, looking at the box and the Beast King’s hair inside, the Mother Tree took a deep breath and decisively spoke, “If it’s such a great gift, it’s not impossible for me to betray the Giant Clan and the Insect Clan and cooperate with you!”

The Insect Clan and the Giant Clan also understood the characteristics of the Mother Tree.

Therefore, the two clans were wary of the Mother Tree, and they had not provided the Mother Tree with the genetic samples of Source Realm experts.

But now, the Corpse God had given it such a generous gift…

With such a generous gift, there was also deep friendship!

However, to the Mother Tree’s surprise, Zero simply shook its head when it heard the Mother Tree’s words.

“I don’t need to work with you, and I don’t want to disrupt the current situation.”

“In any case, if 1 gave you something, you can take it with peace of mind. Since 1 said that this thing is a gift from me, it’s purely a gift and there’s no need for any compensation.”

“As for what you will do with this gift, what plans or arrangements you have after receiving it, it’s all up to you and has nothing to do with me.”

Zero raised an eyebrow and asked, “Do you understand?”

The Mother Tree was rendered speechless.

Finally, Zero said, “So now, you can go back and enjoy this gift.”

Watching the Mother Tree stumble out of the research institute, Zero shook his head.

With a thought, the consciousness he had placed on Esek was quickly withdrawn.

Esek seemed momentarily confused but quickly regained his composure.

He turned to look around and soon muttered to himself.

“It seems that the ancestor is using my body again.”

“Although I don’t know what just happened, but…”

“Yes, let’s get down to business first.”

As he muttered, he walked to the large jar in the experiment area.

He reached out and touched it.

Then, Essex’s body seemed to become like gas, slowly penetrating the jar and entering it.

Immersed in the purplish-black liquid in the jar, Esek slowly closed his eyes.

Corpse God Territory.

The main city of the Undead Clan and the residence of the Corpse God.

The entire Corpse God Territory occupied a huge area, and according to professionals, it was one of the largest cities in the Black Mist Zone—perhaps even larger than the Eternal Clan’s main city.

The city was divided into hundreds of districts of various sizes, each with a different architectural style based on individual preferences.

But one thing remained eternal.

It was as eternal as the gods.

This was the Corpse God’s Palace—the Sky City.

The Sky City would always float in the sky above the Corpse God Territory, just like the Corpse God perpetually watching over his subjects.

At this moment, on the Sky City 30,000 meters above the ground, the Corpse God was sitting high in the clouds and playing chess with someone.

He had a calm and gentle appearance, with slightly pale skin, and his face bore the bloodline patterns in the shape of flowers—a symbol of the Corpse God’s original race, which had long disappeared into the annals of history.

The Corpse God did not identify with his original race; he identified more with his Corpse clan identity.

Sitting across from the Corpse God was a strong and burly old man.

The old man was about 1.8 meters tall, with wrinkles all over his face, but his body was extremely strong.

He wore a loose black robe, but his broad shoulders and back stretched the robe as if it were a tight-fitting suit.

What was even more eye-catching was the old man’s hair.

He had the symbolic silver-white hair of the Aeonians.

Yes, he was indeed from the Eternal Clan.

And he was the god of the Eternal Clan.

His name was Yuan!

“Forget it, forget it. I’m not playing anymore. I admit that when it comes to using the brain, I can’t compete with you researchers.”

Yuan’s large hand gently swept across the chessboard, causing all the chess pieces on the chessboard to turn into dust.

Seeing this, Zero just shook his head slightly. He waved his hand, and refreshments appeared on the chessboard.

“It’s your favorite Dao Yuan Tea.”

He picked up the teapot and filled Yuan’s cup, but Yuan ignored the Dao Yuan Tea.

He just looked at Zero through the rising tea smoke.

Moments later, he spoke softly, “I’ve been wanting to ask you a question since a while ago.”

Zero replied gently, “Ask away.”

“What exactly is that Blood Flesh Mother Tree?”

“It’s a mutant. Do you have to ask me?”

Hearing Zero’s dismissive response, Yuan could not help but shake his head and say, “As a Subverter, how can 1 not know that it’s a mutant?”

“The problem is, where did this mutant come from, and for what reason does it exist?”

“Everything has an origin, a foundation…”

“This mutant, named the Blood Flesh Mother Tree, must have one too!”

However, Zero just leisurely sipped the Dao Yuan Tea, enjoying the rich tea flavor that entered his taste buds, and let out a refreshing sigh.

Putting down the teacup, he continued, “Is foundation really that important?”

Yuan paused and then smiled, “It’s indeed not that important.”

“It’s just that 1 feel that this thing looks very much like your work.”

“Whether it’s its life form or the thing you just gave it… Although there’s no evidence, 1 always have this feeling that it has a lot to do with you.”

Regarding this, Zero just smiled faintly, “Yes, it’s indeed somewhat related to me. So what?”

This tone finally made Yuan sigh helplessly, “It’s just curiosity, that’s all…”

People had secrets.

Gods had endless lifespans and more secrets.

Even if Zero now admitted that the Blood Flesh Mother Tree was related to him, so what?

Digging deeper into it would be a manifestation of hostility.

As fellow Subverters, Yuan understood Zero far better than the outside world.

The Corpse God was not to be trifled with.

In fact, he could not even be provoked!

He also picked up the teacup and swallowed the tea in it.

Yuan decisively changed the subject. “Over in the Archean City, the research results of the Flame Clan have already escaped and are now hiding in Moro City. I’ve already used some means to conceal it. At the very least, that old geezer from the Sky Monitoring Bureau won’t be able to find it or see through it. As for how far that little thing can grow, it all depends on its own luck.”

“But 1 do think this dream system is quite interesting.”

“It’s worth looking forward to.”

Zero nodded slightly.

However, his gaze drifted, as if his thoughts had already flown somewhere.

This made Yuan shake his head again.

“If you don’t feel like talking, then forget it.”

“I’ll look for you again in a while.”

Yuan stood up and was about to leave when Zero finally spoke.

“Soon…”

“What did you say?”

“I said that it’s going to be soon. Our purpose, yours and mine as Subverters, will soon be achieved.”

This statement made Yuan’s expression turn serious. He heard Zero continue, “In this era, whether it’s a success or a failure, it will soon be determined..”
