0.56% Global Catastrophe: I Became the World Tree / Chapter 6: Chapter 6 Explosive News_1

Kapitel 6: Chapter 6 Explosive News_1

"It's really lucky that a survivor managed to escape back," Ye Feng glanced at the photo, noticing that it was one of the security guards.

In the picture, he was wrapped in several bandages, and according to his description, he had broken a rib while being chased by a wild boar.

After successfully escaping, he encountered other mutated beings and fled all the way.

He was fortunate enough to run into a large supply convoy on the road, which allowed him to return alive; otherwise, he would have faced certain death.

"The wilderness is getting more and more dangerous!" Ye Feng's expression was a bit solemn.

Not to mention others, just the mutated bats that he had just hunted were quite dangerous for humans to encounter in the wild. If they encountered a flock, even armed, they would die.

Of course, he only glanced at the report twice before closing it and started checking other information.

For him, there was still one thing to confirm.

That was whether the school or research institutions would send out search parties to look for their bodies.

If they really came searching, it would definitely be a troublesome matter for him.

But perhaps the news brought back by the rescued survivor was too horrifying, deterring other teams from taking on the high-risk task of searching for bodies, so he saw no such information.

"It's best if they don't come looking; it would also give me an excuse to return later."

While muttering to himself, Ye Feng opened up the international news section.

This was something he used to do every day.

Compared to domestic areas, some places had mutated animals evolving even more rapidly.

Like the Amazon Jungle.

The mutated beings there are often considered first-tier entities.

He had just opened the international news section and glanced at the top news when he almost lost grip on his phone.

#The 1st City Overrun by Mutated Creatures#

Ye Feng hastily clicked to read this news, finding out that the city which had been wiped out was a small one in Ah San Country.

Of course, even if that city was small, it still had more than 200,000 inhabitants, and the worldwide sensation caused by such news could be well imagined.

Below this news was an attached video.

Ye Feng clicked to watch it, and at the beginning, it was intense gunfire.

From the video, that appeared to be a local militia organization, engaged in heavy combat with the mutated beings.

And among the mutated creatures, what stood out the most were mutated buffalos the size of small trucks.

As everyone knows, in Ah San Country, cows are sacred animals. The people don't eat beef, and there were even cases of wild buffalo overpopulation.

Because of the large number, the mutated wild buffalos in Ah San Country were especially abundant, with more than a dozen charging together in the video.

They were like a dozen tanks smashing everything in their path, houses collapsing one after another.

They even withstood the firepower of automatic rifles, chasing down the humans who fought against them.

Bullets hitting their body, although creating visible wounds, could penetrate only four or five centimeters at most before being stopped by their sturdy muscles, inflicting no fatal damage.

It was not until a rocket shell was fired that one of the mutated wild buffalos was finally killed.

But killing a single buffalo had no critical effect on the outcome of the battle.

Moreover, the biggest harm to the militia was not from these mutated buffalos, but from the large and agile mutated mice.

They nimbly maneuvered through the gunfire, quickly approaching the militia members before launching into a biting frenzy.

Even if the armed members rapidly dispatched the mice with military knives, they were already torn and bleeding heavily in the process.

Killing a few mutated mice was futile; just the ones captured by the camera numbered in the hundreds.

If one were to count the entire city, the number would be unfathomably high.

Although the mutated buffalos and mice were the main forces of this war, they were not the ones causing most harm to civilians.

The most damage was caused by ubiquitous mutated mosquitoes.

The latter half of the video was from a high-definition camera at the entrance of a bank.

You could see people running frantically, pursued by a dense swarm of mutated mosquitoes behind them.

They swarmed like dark clouds, even obscuring the sky.

These mutated mosquitoes, the size of common cockroaches, could overwhelm and drown a normal adult in seconds.

After a short ten seconds, as the mutated mosquitoes flew away, only a desiccated corpse remained.

But it wasn't over yet. What followed was a large swarm of mutated flies and cockroaches quickly devouring the bodies on the ground.

Even Ye Feng felt uneasy watching this scene, and the comments below the video were already exploding.

"Watching this, I'm shaking with fear, just went to check my home's mosquito netting again."

"Upstairs, if mosquitoes keep mutating like this, mosquito netting won't be able to stop them, let alone the cockroaches, mice, and the like! I've decided, I'll join the city's pest control team as a volunteer tomorrow."

"Does no one notice the huge size of those mutated mice in the video? Not counting their tails, they're 30 centimeters long. Does this mean the mutated mice in our country will also be this big in the future? [Terrified]"

Watching the heated discussions online, Ye Feng grew solemn.

This incident could be seen as a signpost, Although mutated animals varied in the extent of their mutations across the world, it was only a matter of time.

The occurrences in Ah San Country were likely to happen in other countries, Hua Country included.

"I'm still not strong enough. I have to become so powerful that, when faced with a crisis, I can protect my family and even the entire region," Ye Feng thought to himself.

He glanced at the news again and noticed his phone's battery was down to 51%, so he immediately chose to turn it off.

Now this phone was his only means of getting information from the outside world, and he couldn't afford to waste even a bit of battery.

Next, Ye Feng returned to his harvesting work.

As insect activity increased in the morning, the speed of his Spiritual Energy earnings also picked up considerably.

The Mutated Mosquitoes in the sky also caught his attention, While they were not as terrifying as those in the video, they were still significantly large.

Each Mutated Mosquito was at least the size of a fingertip.

Given the current situation, evolving to the size of a normal cockroach probably wouldn't take more than a month.

So within his capabilities, he planned to conduct a sweep of these Mutated Mosquitoes.

But as he actually set to work, he found it was not so easy; the mosquitoes had become much quicker in both reflexes and flight speed after mutating.

Squashing them was harder than smashing a fly.

His roots weren't that nimble.

To hunt these Mutated Mosquitoes, he could only rely on his web of roots, but even so, he could catch at most two or three Mutated Mosquitoes at a time.

And they only provided 0.1 Spirit Points each.

It was time-consuming, strenuous, and the rewards were scant, Ye Feng chose to give it up.

For now, it was more important to capture other insects and enhance himself first.

After adjusting his strategy, it took only an hour and a half for his roots to reach a length of 100 meters.

At the same time, his Evolution Points accumulated to 10, allowing him another chance to evolve.

"The speed of these breakthroughs is getting faster and faster," Ye Feng couldn't help but remark.

"Ding! Please choose a direction to strengthen."

Facing the system prompt that popped up once again, Ye Feng frowned in deep thought.

This time, he chose to enhance the toughness of his roots.

When he was hunting the Mutated Bats, his roots couldn't withstand their sharp claws and teeth at all. It was only because he moved fast that they barely avoided being cut. If he had hesitated for a few more seconds, his roots might have been severed.

The toughness of the roots was equivalent to strengthening the defensive power, which was quite necessary.

Otherwise, hunting larger beasts in the future would be no fun if his roots snapped at the slightest tug.

After selecting the direction to strengthen, Ye Feng entered into the state of evolution. In just five minutes, he underwent another earth-shattering transformation.

Host: Ye Feng (World Tree)

Tree Body Height: 25 meters

Trunk Width: 1.25 meters

Root Length: 110 meters

Realm: First Order Peak

Evolution Points: 0/10 points

Special Ability: Devour

Spiritual Energy Value: 0/200 points

Bioenergy: 30/200 points

Looking at his system panel, Ye Feng was quite satisfied.

All aspects had seen a great improvement, especially the roots, which were enhanced in strength, flexibility, and toughness.

He felt like he could rightly claim to be unrivaled in this valley.

Of course, there were aspects he was not satisfied with, The 25-meter height of his Tree Body after another breakthrough made him quite conspicuous in this valley.

Now there were no more than 20 trees taller than him.

"I'm afraid after a few more evolutions, I'll stick out like a sore thumb," Ye Feng muttered to himself.

But the current him couldn't afford to stop; he could only hope to be discovered later rather than sooner.

As his roots grew longer and his territory further expanded, Ye Feng could now gather a formidable 35 Spirit Points per hour.

So, by the time noon arrived,

he was ready to evolve again.

And by now, he was at the First Order Peak.

Next up was the breakthrough of a Big Realm.


Kapitel 7: Chapter 7 New Abilities_1

As he was about to make a breakthrough, Ye Feng opened the system panel to take a look.

In the past two hours, he had added points to his root length a hundred times.

His root length skyrocketed once again, reaching 130 meters.

With the territory range increasing once more, he could now harvest 40 Spirit Points per hour without doing anything.

To be honest, Ye Feng had not expected everything to go so smoothly.

And now, he was about to face the biggest turning point in his tree life.

He took a deep breath and clicked the evolve button.

"Ding! Please select the direction for enhancement."

Seeing the system prompt that popped up, Ye Feng did not hesitate; this time, he directly chose the repair speed.

There were four options for root enhancement: strength, flexibility, toughness, and repair speed.

Since he had enhanced the first three, he did not want to leave any flaws for himself, so he enhanced all four directions in turn.

With his choice made, the evolution quickly began.

This time, the evolution was more intense than it had ever been before.

Moreover, the evolution time had extended from the original 5 minutes to 10 minutes.

After the evolution was completed, he immediately opened the system panel to check.

Host: Ye Feng (World Tree)

Tree Body Height: 35 meters

Trunk Width: 1.75 meters

Root Length: 150 meters

Realm: Stage Two Initial

Evolution Points: 0/40 Points

Special Ability: Devour, Capture

Spirit Points: 0/350 Points

Bioenergy: 115/350 Points

Firstly, there were his own three attributes. In terms of height, it had jumped from the original 25 meters straight to 35 meters.

Honestly, this gave Ye Feng quite the shock.

Surveying the entire valley, his height could now rank within the top five.

Furthermore, at this rate of growth, just two more evolutions would make him first without question.

"It seems I am truly standing out from the forest!" Ye Feng couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Of course, asking him to stop evolving was out of the question; he could only take things one step at a time from here on out.

As for the increase in trunk width, there's not much to say about it.

It increased, but only served to boost the storage capacity for Spirit Points and Bioenergy.

There's no need to mention Spirit Points; he basically never stored them since he would use them immediately to add points.

In contrast, an increase in the storage capacity for Bioenergy seemed to have some utility.

Although he was constantly using Bioenergy, its total amount was still increasing; after all, his Devouring Ability could absorb both types of energy back.

Moreover, the main use for the increased root length was to absorb Bioenergy, leading to his ever-growing Bioenergy reserves.

Not knowing whether Bioenergy had any other uses, all he could do was to save it up.

Lastly, there was the root length, which underwent the biggest change.

Needless to say regarding length, the 150-meter span allowed his territory to expand yet another circle.

Compared to the extension of the roots, he cared more about the "quality" of these roots.

The breakthrough of the Big Realm was akin to an all-around strengthened enhancement.

Compared to before, the roots had undergone a complete transformation.

```

Whoosh!

A tree root as thick as a forearm burst out of the ground like a swift whip and directly struck the nearby ginkgo tree.

Bang!

A dull thud echoed, and the ginkgo tree, losing bark, sported a 5-centimeter deep dent on its trunk.

But Ye Feng's root was unscathed, and even the surface of the root system was undamaged.

It was clear that the "material" of the two was not on the same level.

Ye Feng estimated that the force he had exerted with that lash was at least 100 pounds.

He only needed to pull out 10 roots, twist them into a "rope," and a single strike would wield a force of over a thousand pounds, enough to snap the ginkgo tree in half.

"With my current strength, facing those mutated bats again, one root would easily subdue them."

"In other words, my combat power now is at least equivalent to 200 mutated bats," Ye Feng contemplated.

Without a standard reference, he could only measure his strength against the mutated bats.

The reason he said he could defeat 200 mutated bats, not 100, was because...

... upon breaking through to the Second Stage, he had grown an additional main root and 100 side roots!!!

Without any exaggeration, this breakthrough to a Big Realm massively boosted his combat power.

Of course, aside from the aspects mentioned above, there was another point on the system panel that captured his attention.

His gaze fell onto the section for Special Ability.

Besides the Devouring Ability, another ability had surfaced: Capture Ability.

He tapped it with his thoughts, and immediately, the details of this ability appeared in his mind.

"After using the ability, there is a certain chance to capture other creatures. The success rate is determined by the difference in strength between both parties."

"At the current stage, up to 20 creatures can be captured. Death releases the relationship."

While the description was somewhat simplistic, it was enough to light up Ye Feng's eyes.

"After capturing other creatures, can I directly control them?" As Ye Feng pondered, he began looking for a target.

The first things he spotted were, of course, the various insects within his territory.

But he passed over these immediately; capturing such small fry was of no use.

Soon, his gaze shifted to the banyan tree to his left.

In the tree was a bird's nest with two sparrows and several eggs inside.

Originally destined to be his food, he refrained from eating them upon realizing he could Devour Spiritual Energy from other trees.

After all, he quite liked these small birds. He thought it would be nice to raise a couple to alleviate some solitude.

Now, they were proving to be useful. If he could capture these sparrows, his control over the sky would undoubtedly be strengthened.

Acting upon his thoughts, dozens of roots burst forth from the ground. Some crept silently up the trunk of the banyan tree, while others used the nearby trees for camouflage, hiding within their canopies.

Ye Feng was exceedingly careful, setting up a trap even for two little sparrows.

In fact, these two Mutated Sparrows were already very wary of Ye Feng, given that the growth rate of the World Tree was astoundingly fast.

But there were eggs in the nest, and they were reluctant to leave.

As the two approaching roots were spotted, the sparrows immediately took flight.

If this had happened before Ye Feng's breakthrough, they might have escaped.

But now, the speed of the moving roots almost matched their flight.

Moreover, with the extensive trap Ye Feng had laid, roots shot out from the tops of the nearby trees as the sparrows took to the air.

A large net formed in the sky, swiftly enveloping the birds.

Without any surprises, the two sparrows were firmly entangled by the roots.

As the roots entwined the sparrows, Ye Feng discovered he could now use his Capture Ability.

"Do not resist. Become my captives, and I assure you a life more comfortable than before," Ye Feng said as he activated the ability.
