BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1042 The Tree
Usually, wars between two races happened at the edges of their worlds, as it was the most suitable place for a bloody battle involving millions of creatures.
However, what was happening now was not like a war between two races, it was Liang\'s personal revenge.
He valued his inhabitants above all else, it actually made him lose his temper, however, it was the other thing that angered him the most.
\'I can\'t believe they\'re so arrogant that they thought they could spy on me... no... It\'s not that important compared to the fact that they wanted to control my decisions!\' Liang internally exclaimed before swinging his sword.
The city that was below him while he was heading towards the Tree had been destroyed. Buildings, warehouses, important points, watchtowers, all of it had been cut into perfectly flat pieces.
Then, when the honed mechanism failed, a never-ending series of explosions began all over the city.
It wasn\'t enough to turn a large city into ashes, but considering that it only took Liang a few swings to do so was terrifying to the inhabitants of this world.
Liang didn\'t care what was in his path, he destroyed everything he saw, his goal was to bring as much destruction to Construct as possible. He accomplished this task with ease.
Whooooooooooooooooooosh.
Several Constructs tried to attack him, they were like two flaming flashes headed towards him with great speed. These Constructs were on the God Stage and should have delayed Liang, at least leave burns on his body.
"Tsk. Trash." Liang frowned before taking a deep breath, filling his lungs with air.
Then, when the flaming flashes almost reached him, Liang exhaled, which easily created an extremely powerful stream of wind that simply prevented Constructs from advancing any further.
The wind blades carried away the flame particles from their bodies, revealing them. When the wind stream came to an end, the two Constructs stood in front of Liang without their skills, in a daze.
"Aren\'t you the most technologically advanced race?" Liang arrogantly threw his head back, "In that case, why are you so stupid? You can\'t defeat the strongest! Fine, I\'ll show you what that means."
Liang took a step forward as Constructs became wary. They were actually ready to die, but Liang didn\'t attack them, instead, he soared above the central square of the small town.
This one was much smaller than the one Liang had destroyed in the beginning, only a few thousand people lived there.
They all froze in fear as the shadow of Liang\'s silhouette fell on them. He stared at them intently, then he once again took a deep breath.
Perhaps some Constructs wanted to run away, but it was simply impossible. The strongest Constructs in the city were in the Third Chronicle, most were in the First Chronicle, Liang\'s aura just restrained their movements like chains.
Liang opened his mouth with all the volume and seriousness of a single word.
"DIE!!!"
Liang\'s voice was so powerful that shockwaves came from it, making the tree crowns sway. Then the eyes of all the residents went wide, the sound waves hitting their heads, penetrating the depths of their minds.
"Wait... This can\'t be..." Construct on the God Stage muttered in disbelief.
Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.
At the same moment, the heads of a thousand residents exploded, instantly turning the place into a ghost town, an empty and abandoned place with a bunch of corpses in the streets.
Obviously, such a move would not work against stronger opponents, as Liang used only his aura and voice to achieve such a result. However, even for God Stage Constructs, this was something impossible.
"No... No one should have this kind of strength..." Construct was horrified.
"Shit, how did that happen? We were watching him, he seemed to be the calmest and kindest of all the Progenitors... However, the rumors of his cruelty turned out to be true..." The second Construct muttered with shivers all over his body.
Whoooooooooooosh.
Liang appeared in front of them, "Cruelty? I\'m not cruel at all, I\'m just getting rid of the parasites, I should have done this hundred of years ago. No one in this world, not even the Dragon Progenitor or Nameless King, dared to control my decisions and hurt my inhabitants."
"Being the most intelligent, you have managed to do perhaps the stupidest thing in existence." Liang arrogantly uttered, then his hand turned into a blurry blur.
The heads of the two Constructs exploded, and Liang continued on his way straight towards the Tree. He still had a bit more time to reach the Tree, its massive silhouette was already showing from behind the horizon.
"Well, well, it looks like he\'s actually serious." Alucard smirked, looking at the bloodstains among the towns and villages Liang was flying over.
"Hehehe, for them the war started earlier than for others. They wanted it for themselves, but they weren\'t prepared for one person to be stronger than their best units." Alucard chuckled, watching Liang.
He wasn\'t going to participate in the battle, there was no need for him to do so, he wanted to face Liang again, only at the very end.
\'Let\'s see what the leader here is capable of, although it\'s obvious that Liang won\'t stop until he destroys everything in his path.\' Alucard sprinted forward, quickly catching up to Liang but keeping his distance with him.
Wain, Sven, Osvald, and Marlis kept up with them. It was part of Alucard\'s memories, so they saw everything the same as him.
"Damn, Liang is a real madman." Marlis frowned, looking at the destruction that was left behind.
"Hah! He is the Strongest One! They dared to piss him off, so they had to face the consequences! There\'s nothing surprising about that!" Osvald exclaimed. He was in awe of the pure strength that Liang used. It was of the highest level.
Sven sighed, "Liang has always been like this, hasn\'t he?" Sven glanced at Wain.
"Yeah." Wain nodded, "The calmest people become the most dangerous in critical situations. It seems to me that this truth only came about because of him. Well, I don\'t think Liang will be able to emerge victorious without getting injured, though he will win for sure."
Marlis gave him a questioning look, "Are you sure about that? After all, Liang has only fought God Stage Constructs so far. The progenitor of the Construct has immense strength as well as energy from the tree."
Wain smirked, "I doubt it will hinder Liang in any way on his path of destruction. I don\'t think he\'ll even have to use his Form. In fact, he\'s one of the most uncomfortable opponents for them."
Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooosh.
At the same moment, Liang sped up, so the same thing happened to Alucard, Wain and the rest.
They appeared in the middle of the desert, perhaps the only place in Construct World where there wasn\'t some city, buildings, military bases, or anything like that. All of this was necessary for the Tree to have a place.
"Damn, even though this world is half made up of machinery and metals, which visually I don\'t like at all, but this view is mesmerizing..." Liang muttered, looking at the greatest treasure of the Construct World.
The Tree was majestic and huge, easily reaching the height of the clouds, but in this place, the sky was completely clear. Part of the Tree was organic, and part of it was made up of mechanical parts that had energy waves traveling through them.
From the tops of the branches, from time to time, powerful lightning bolts would emanate, traveling to different points in the world to create pockets of energy that would then collect Constructs.
On the branches of the tree, like fruit, hung thousands of cocoons in which Constructs were growing, whose parents had been given this rare opportunity for their future children. Each of these children would be talented and skillful in the future, more so than most of those born in the normal way.
At the roots of the Tree grew huge blue crystals, one of the most important materials for Construct Cities to function fully.
A small piece of crystal the size of a palm could easily power a city of a hundred thousand inhabitants for an entire year. The crystals grew slowly, but they were more than enough to power even ten worlds like this one for thousands of years.
There was a special city around the Tree, mostly only technical or military structures, only the strongest Constructs and Guardians of the Tree lived here. One of them was Ynez, whom Liang easily killed.
In the center of the Tree was a huge azure core, just like Ynez\'s, but much bigger and many times more powerful. The core created a special defense barrier, in addition to the ones Constructs had put around the city.
The Constructs made sure that the defenses around the tree were strong enough that not even the Dragon Progenitor could quickly break through it. If the Tree was destroyed, it would be a disaster for Constructs.
"Agh... After looking at it like this, I don\'t even feel like destroying it, but... That thought already left my mind a few seconds ago." Liang calmly said, before he stood in a fighting stance and tightly gripped the hilt of his sword with both hands.
At the same moment, his gaze changed, becoming fierce and sharp as he raised his sword above his head, gathering streams of wind covering the sharp blade of his weapon.
"Let\'s see how good your defenses are. Bastards!" Liang exclaimed in rage before swinging his sword.
Then, the vast desert was split in two, just in a heartbeat, the terrain was completely changed.
