C5 Fortified Root
Su Mu looked at the wounded animals on the ground and couldn't help but to smile joyfully.
It was like seeing a golden ear of wheat in the autumn of an old farmer toiling in the fields on a hot summer day.
"It wasn't in vain for me to plough through the lands and reap the rewards. I didn't waste my time and effort waiting for such a long time."
Su Mu tried his best to whip up the mutated branches, starting from the injured rabbit, and killed every single one of them.
Killing one rabbit gave him 20 points of evolution.
Killing one Zokker rat gave him 8 points of evolution.
Killing one bird gave 3 points of evolution.
"..."
Su Mu was immersed in the joy of the system's scrolling. He was unable to extricate himself from it.
In just a few minutes, Su Mu had reaped a huge harvest. Adding all the points he had before, he had earned a total of 230 evolution points.
Su Mu waved his hand and turned on the system.
"Ding ~ Do you want to use 150 points of evolved roots?"
"Tsk, the number of evolution points required to consume an evolved root is 15 times that of an evolved branch. So expensive."
Even though it was expensive, Su Mu had spent 150 evolution points on the biggest and thickest root of his body.
The most important part of a tree was definitely its roots. Without the branches, the tree could still survive, but without the roots, it was like a human without its heart.
Furthermore, Su Mu remembered that rats can punch holes in the ground. Su Mu didn't want the branch to evolve so strongly and be stolen by that nest of rats in the end.
Rather than remedying a disaster such as this one, it is better to guard against it.
The pure energy quickly transformed Su Mu's roots, causing him to grimace in pain.
After an hour, Su Mu's body felt light. He finally felt free from the endless pain.
Skills: Variant Tree Root (LV0): It can temporarily move on the surface of the ground and has great attack power.
Upgrade condition: Requires all roots to complete their first evolution.
With a thought from Su Mu, the flat land rose up. A thick black root pierced out from the ground. This root was like a giant python crawling on the ground.
Su Mu was testing out the biggest range of his roots.
When the root hairs reached a distance of five meters, they would reach their limit.
"The largest attack range is no more than five meters. Next, we should test the attack power of the roots."
His mutated tree branches could leave grey-white marks on the rocks. He wondered how the tree roots, which had consumed 150 evolution points, would perform.
The thick tree roots retracted, and when they were stretched to their limits, they shot out with a loud bang. An explosive sound rang out in the air, and a large hole appeared in the rock three meters away from the tree roots.
"This power is really strong, 150 points of evolution isn't a waste." Su Mu praised the strengthened roots in his heart.
After the test, Su Mu, following the principle of not wasting time by moving around on the CD-ROM, swept all the corpses on the ground into the soil and slowly absorbed them as nutrients.
Su Mu didn't plan to keep the remaining 60 evolution points, as they were all used to strengthen the other branches.
Su Mu's attributes panel was as if it was brand-new and became more luxurious.

Su Mu closed the system in satisfaction, forcefully suppressing his mental exhaustion. Without any rest, he started another round of hunting.
