The 'awakened elites' were the elites that would wake up to save the Dust Crocodiles after the Solidification Bloom was successful.
Some of the elites were members of the 'tree'.
These elites had a special plan. After waking up, if they realized that they couldn't save the Dust Crocodiles, they would activate the missiles.
They would fire the missiles, wake up the tree, and let the tree guide them. This was their specific battle plan, and it could be said that it was a plan within a plan.
This would ensure that the Dust Crocodiles had a higher chance of defeating the invaders after the Solidification Bloom.
Therefore, the Dust Crocodile believers entered the launch coordinates into the missiles. In fact, this wasn't done secretly. It was approved.
After a discussion in the council, they agreed that there was nothing wrong with having a backup plan … Later, the plan was put into action, but it was only considered a last resort. The elites were told to only use the Awakening Tree plan when there was no other way, when there was no target left to bomb.
This was quite strange because other than the believers, the other Dust Crocodiles didn't have any faith. However, they also felt that … this plan was feasible.
Although it was considered a last resort, it meant that they believed in it a little.
Therefore, this plan was carried out. The Dust Crocodiles entered the coordinates of the tree in many missiles. Some Dust Crocodiles followed the coordinates and tried to find the tree to guide them.
No one knew if these Dust Crocodiles succeeded in the end. After the coordinates were set, everything went according to the original plan. The activation of the Solidification Bloom, the awakening of the elites … and the situation now.
The Solidification Bloom seemed to have failed because there were so many three-legged pillars active in the city. There were even Cong Du's skeletons involved. However, the number of awakened elites was extremely small. They obviously couldn't save the Dust Crocodiles.
And now, it seemed that the plan to wake up the tree was feasible because the three-legged pillars were destroying the weapons as if they were afraid that the weapons would hit the tree.
Was that really the case?
Or was it just a coincidence that the three-legged pillars were destroying the weapons for some other reason? No matter what … the Shi Jin wanted to know the situation.
The two missiles that it let the mechanical crocodiles fire had already been set. If there were no mistakes, the missiles would fly in the direction of the tree. However, the two missiles shouldn't be able to wake up the tree.
Dust Crocodile's missiles came in many different models. Of course, their power varied greatly. In fact, what the tree required was not a missile, but a sufficiently powerful explosion.
The explosion had to be powerful enough to create a large area of sand, like the one on the other side of the tree. But … how big could it be? The description here was very vague, and there was no specific size.
He only said that Dust Crocodile had calculated that it would take almost the entire country to create such a large desert. The two missiles would not be able to do it.
…
Now, this was the general situation that the scholars understood.
The Scholar, the Mechanical Dust Crocodile, and the Primordial realm expert all resided in a certain place within the research facility. Although the main control room had been destroyed, there were still a few archives where he could find some information.
Now that the Scholar had seen the Dust Crocodile's special plan, the Primordial realm expert believed that the tree was connected to the person who modified it. Perhaps it was the person who modified it.
The Mechanical Dust Crocodile also agreed with this plan. Although it was not a believer, it also thought that this plan should be feasible. Or rather, it was their last hope now.
The Scholar, on the other hand, felt that the desert in the description … seemed to have been there before.
…
Rumble … Now, on a vast and barren desert, the missile was speeding through the desert.
There was only one missile, and the other one was nowhere to be found. However, this one was already close to its target. The coordinates set inside guided it towards the target.
"It's coming. What is it doing here? I don't know. It's probably for us to kill it. You don't want to kill that kind of thing. Is that so? Then let it bite you to death. "
Two ellipsoidal multi-limbed creatures were watching the missile approach from afar. As the missile was flying, they gave it a lot of … comments.
Then, they quickly ran to the side and dug a hole in the ground to bury themselves, only leaving their eyes outside.
Rumble! The missile hit its target, the huge tree that stood in the center of the desert.
The surface was covered in a thick layer of dust, and under the dust was a sturdy outer shell. It was entirely gray, and its appearance was … very different from the Lava Tree that the Dust Crocodile had mentioned.
It trembled in the violent explosion, and countless dust scattered like snowflakes. Then, it slowly floated down from the sky.
"It exploded. It's snowing. But … it has no effect. It's insignificant. It's very fragile. "
Countless dust scattered on the ground, and the sturdy interior of the huge tree was revealed. However, there was not a single crack on it … The previous explosion did not cause any damage to it.
It also did not show any signs of … 'waking up'.
"It needs more sacrifices. Only the Chosen One can do it. The Chosen One? What is that? It's those things that are struck by lightning. But there is no lightning here. Is that so? Then there are no Chosen Ones. But I don't know if there will be more sacrifices. What is a sacrifice? … "
The two ellipsoidal creatures drilled out of the sand and continued to discuss.
Although most creatures did not know what they were discussing, they could at least show that they understood the situation here.
At this time, over there …
I know! Those two brain-created monsters must know something about the situation!
That was what the Scholar in the research institute thought. He felt that the sand and the tree that created the brain-created monsters must be the one in the legends.
However, the tree had been there for a long time, and its appearance was very different from the legends. However, the brain-created monsters might have heard the 'voice' of the 'tree'.
Regardless of whether the tree was a god or something else, it might be a force that could resist the invaders here. The Scholar wanted to study this situation.
"Then what should we do now?" Thinking about it, the Scholar decided to ask for the opinions of the Primordial Realm and the Mechanical Dust Crocodile.
They had been here for a long time, and no three-legged pillar had come in. This meant that the three-legged pillar probably did not know that they had been teleported here, so they could do something.
"Of course we'll fire the missile," the Mechanical Dust Crocodile said. "We'll wake it up!"
"But weapons …"
