Deep underground, where the roots of the Mother Tree are located.

Creak…crack…

The Mother Tree struggled painfully to free itself from the millions of red tentacles that tightly wound around its roots.

But the Mother Tree’s resistance was infinitely weak, already exhausted to its limits.

While the Mother Tree resisted,

Sizzle…sizzle…

The hot, red tentacles scorched the roots of the Mother Tree, creating wounds and

Gulp…gulp…

Sucked the life force through those wounds, supplying it somewhere else. And at the end of these tentacles was a giant red mantis, the Queen of Mantises, Mantis Queen.

The Mantis Queen had long coveted the power of conception that the Mother Tree possessed.

The power of conception is the ability to bring into existence whatever one desires.

The fact that the Mother Tree could give birth to birds from the flowers it blooms was due to this power of conception.

Therefore, the Mantis Queen, seeking to obtain the power of conception, used her power of fire to dry up the water on the 79th floor of the tower, waiting for the Mother Tree to weaken.

And as the Mother Tree weakened, she approached its roots to steal the power of conception.

However, the Mantis Queen had been absorbing only the life force of the Mother Tree for years, unable to obtain the power of conception.

The Mother Tree, even as it was dying, protected the power of conception with its life force, enduring to the last.

The recent rapid increase in the number of mantises was due to the Mantis Queen giving birth to many offspring to handle the overflowing life force she absorbed from the Mother Tree.

But this was about to end soon. The moment for which the Mantis Queen had waited for decades was approaching.

The life force of the Mother Tree was nearly depleted.

Once the life force was gone, the power of conception that the Mother Tree desperately protected would become hers.

Then,

Crack.

The Mother Tree, somewhat revitalized by the treatment from Sejun and the animals, began to move its roots.

But the roots couldn’t budge, entangled tightly by millions of red tentacles.

Crunch…crack…

Instead, the tentacles tightened even more, solidifying their grip in response to the Mother Tree’s roots trying to break free with greater force than usual.

However,

Creak…creak…

Knowing this might be its last chance to do something, the Mother Tree moved its roots violently with all its might, and

Snap.

Finally, one of the tentacles wrapping the Mother Tree’s roots broke.

Snap…snap…

Once the breakthrough was made, more and more tentacles began to break one after another.

Queeeek?!!!

Realizing someone was helping the Mother Tree, the Mantis Queen became enraged.

And then,

Queeeeeek!

She ordered all mantises to march towards the Mother Tree.

***

Queek!

Following the Mantis Queen’s command, a million mantises quickly marched towards the Mother Tree and
