Chapter 139: Sea Bridge

The tree was not big, about 7 – 8 meters tall and less than half a meter wide. It was bald and looked malnourished. What made Luo Yuan noticed it was that its bark was oddly smooth and flawless, akin to human skin.

While he thought it would not be dangerous, he was still cautious in approaching the tree, his dominance exuded from clutching his machete, stealthily.

Until Luo Yuan got closer, the strange tree did not seem to move.

“It seems like this tree was affected by the radiation… but it’s still a normal tree.”, thought Luo Yuan, as he relaxed. He chose a branch to hop on, and chopped it off effortlessly.

At that very moment, Luo Yuan seemed to feel that the tree quivered in pain, calmed itself down quickly.

Luo Yuan hopped off the tree for a closer look and observed it meticulously.

The tree was motionless, like a how a normal plant would be. He would have been baffled if the chopped branch was wriggling around like an injured snake now.
