Chapter 125: Your Life Is Meaningless!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

There was nothing in Linhai County, except for that astonis.h.i.+ngly gigantic Mother Tree-

Stepping into Linhai County, Lu Ming looked around but did not see any significant targets worth his attention.

Vaguely, Lu Ming felt countless gazes from the distant Mother Tree fixed upon him.

It, or perhaps they, were sizing him up.

But it did not matter.

Raising his head to look at the Blood Flesh Mother Tree, Lu Ming tightened his grip on his battle sword and walked unhurriedly towards the Mother Tree.

The Blood Flesh Mother Tree was at a distance away.

The moment Lu Ming stepped into Linhai County, all the heads on the Blood Flesh Mother Tree turned their gazes at Lu Ming.

Lu Ming seemed to be aware of their gaze.

But Lu Ming did not show any response.

Similarly, the Blood Flesh Mother Tree remained silent.

Instead, it made all its subordinates shrink under the tree roots and waited calmly for Lu Ming to approach.

About 10 minutes later.

Lu Ming arrived at the foot of the Blood Flesh Mother Tree.

Although it was said to be the foot of the tree, given the size of the Mother Tree, Lu Ming was still nearly a thousand meters away from it in a straight line.

Lowering his head, Lu Ming saw a thick layer of sticky red substance under his feet, with some strip-like things contracting and twitching beneath it.

“Disgusting,” Lu Ming muttered.

Lu Ming did not like the color red.

Red represented blood, conflict, slaughter, and trouble!

As for a red carpet that could move, one could imagine how disgusting it was.

“It’s called matrix.”

A voice came from afar.

It was the mixed voices of countless heads speaking.

Lu Ming raised his head and looked at the Blood Flesh Mother Tree.

“You can talk?” he asked.

“Yes.”

A branch of the Blood Flesh Mother Tree twitched and quickly stretched in front of Lu Ming.

On the branch, a bald young man’s head said, “Yes,” answering Lu Ming’s question.

This made Lu Ming s.h.i.+ver.

“You look disgusting enough,” he said, frowning.

A huge tree full of human heads?

And it was fleshy red in color?

Yuck!

Lu Ming showed a disgusted face.

Lu Ming’s expression stunned the Blood Flesh Mother Tree.

A moment later, it smiled and said, “Shouldn’t a normal person be asking what a matrix is?”

Lu Ming: “What does the matrix have to do with me?”

Blood Flesh Mother Tree remained silent for a moment.” ”

‘You’re quite right. I can’t argue with that.’

Vaguely, the Blood Flesh Mother Tree felt that the man in front of it was not an easy guy!

It saw Lu Ming slowly draw his sword, seemingly preparing to engage in a fight, so the Blood Flesh Mother Tree hurriedly spoke, “Don’t be hasty. I like to chat with humans. My intelligence was born from chatting with a certain zombie.”

“I think that fighting and killing can be avoided if possible, or at least postponed. Before that, let’s have a simple chat.

After all, you and I are the strongest among the humans and non-humans in Nanxiang City. I believe our conversation is a historic moment with great commemorative significance!”

This made Lu Ming pause for a moment.

After some thought, Lu Ming nodded solemnly, “You’re right. We really need to talk.”

It was beneficial to discuss things reasonably in any situation.

Regardless of whether the opponent was a human or a monster.

How should he put it? For Lu Ming, whether the other party was a human or a monster did not matter, as long as it agreed with his principles, and not treat him as food, or disturb his life, both parties would be able to live in harmony!

You do your job.

1 farm my attributes.

Isn’t that great?

With this in mind, Lu Ming sheathed his sword and said, “I came this time to ask why you sent your subordinates to disturb me? Three times a day! What you’re doing troubles me.”

The head closest to Lu Ming nodded slightly, “I’m sorry to have troubled you. In fact, I sent my men to look for you for your genetic sample.

Your blood, a strand of hair, or even a drop of bodily fluid. That’s what I’m after.”

Lu Ming was about to say that the tree should have said so earlier, but he vaguely thought of something…

After some thought, Lu Ming said, “You want my genetic sample for…”

“To create warriors as powerful as you in batches.”

“To put it bluntly, it’s to become stronger, right?”

The Mother Tree thought for a moment and nodded, “Yes.”

“Then, what happens after you obtain greater strength?”

“Enter the Black Mist Zone and become the king of the Black Mist Zone! That’s my ultimate goal for now.

After I achieve this goal, I’ll think about my next goal.”

One could tell that the Blood Flesh Mother Tree was probably telling the truth.

Lu Ming thought for a moment and asked, “Then let me ask you again. When you get my genetic sample, what will you do to me?”

The Mother Tree answered without much thought, “I’ll devour you. Because a powerhouse like you contains so much energy in your flesh and blood, making you a sumptuous meal for me. Yes, that’s probably it.”

It still did not lie…

However, it made Lu Ming frown.

No matter how one said it, it was still a hunter-prey relations.h.i.+p!

There was nothing more to say!

Killing intent instantly filled the air, and Lu Ming drew his sword, preparing to attack.

Unexpectedly, the Mother Tree spoke again, “I understand you, Lu Ming.

1 know everything about you.”

This made Lu Ming pause for a moment before he heard the Blood Flesh Mother Tree continue.

“I can absorb the memories of everything I devour.

Zombies, humans, mutated beasts, and even wild beasts and insects!

From countless memories, 1 extracted all the fragments related to you. All these made up most of your life, so I learned everything about you.

I think your special ability is a superpower that can increase your strength through exercise and training.”

Lu Ming remained silent.

“And because of this superpower, your life has become simple and colorless. You seemed at a loss, without any goal or direction.”

These words made Lu Ming raise an eyebrow and restrain his killing intent.

The Blood Flesh Mother Tree continued, “I’ve really never seen someone like you. Your daily life consists of training, eating, and sleeping.

You have beautiful women by your side, but you are not attracted to them.

You have the power to seize everything in Nanxiang City, but you only care about doing your own things in your own small world.

I have delved deep into researching you… and found something confusing and puzzling. Now, I hope you can give me an answer.”

Lu Ming swung his battle sword, “Go ahead.”

The Blood Flesh Mother Tree said, “I want to kill you for strength. You exercise and train every day, all for strength. Is that right?”

Lu Ming nodded, “That’s right.”

The Blood Flesh Mother Tree said, “And I pursue strength to achieve my goal to become the king of the Black Mist Zone!

Then, what do you pursue after strength for?”

Lu Ming said in a deep voice, “To protect yourself…”

The Blood Flesh Mother Tree’s canopy shook as if it was shaking its head. “That is not the goal! It’s just an endless loop!”

“Think about it, how strong do you need to be to protect yourself? How strong do you have to be to obtain a sense of security that can satisfy you? There are too many powerful beings in the Black Mist. With your character, if your goal is only to protect yourself, you might never escape the endless cycle of leveling up attributes!”

Lu Ming said in a deep voice, “Then I’ll level up for the rest of my life.”

The Blood Flesh Mother Tree snorted.

“At the end of your life, you’ll be old and lying in bed, unable to move about. You’ll look back on your life and realize that other than eating, sleeping, and exercising, you’ve never done anything meaningful.

Every day, you equate yourself with exercise and training, just to become stronger.

Becoming stronger is just a means, not an end!

It’s meaningless to pursue strength as your goal and your dream!!

Your life, you as a person, are meaningless!!

What a dull and boring life, what a dull and boring person you are, Lu Ming…

Yes, that’s you, Lu Ming!”

The more the Mother Tree talked, the more excited it became, but she silenced Lu Ming.

After some thought, Lu Ming said, “Then what do you think I should do?”

The Mother Tree replied, “Merge with me!”

“Then, we’ll become a team. You’ll provide me with strength, and I’ll bring you a new goal in life! I’ll give you a dream!!

What do you think?”

Lu Ming said, “I think you’re treating me like a fool… or maybe you’re the fool here!”

Pulling out his sword, the sword qi erupted and instantly cut off the tree branch in front of him.

Lu Ming frowned and looked at the Blood Flesh Mother Tree in front of him. He asked in confusion, “Who taught you this MLM scheme?”

Gris said, “I’m not talented…”
