Groot was the last life of a plant planet. Saber once said that he was like a god of natural life. He could grow a flower out of thin air on the barren land, and he could also transfer his life energy to others, pulling them back from the brink of death.
It would take more than a day and a night to describe Groot's magic, but for Groot, he still carried a meaning that he might not even realize.
This Treant who could only speak one sentence carried the final symbol of the extinction of all living things. To mortals, symbols were meaningless, and they couldn't even be exchanged for a piece of bread. However, to higher-level life forms, symbols were very important.
For example, the Phoenix, the spark of the creation and death of the universe. As long as there was life in this universe, the Phoenix would never die.
And Groot, in a sense, also had this effect. Of course, his symbol was much weaker than the Phoenix.
But it was enough to bring him back to life.
"Boss Saber!"
Sim's voice rang in Saber's ears as he prepared to throw a second punch. His movements slowed down a little, and then he heard Rocket's chattering voice:
"Groot is still on that planet, he's not dead! Don't destroy it! "
"Whoosh"
The purple light that shrouded his fist suddenly disappeared at this moment. Saber's eyes flashed. He looked at the earth that had begun to disintegrate in front of him, and the stones began to separate from the surface. After Saber's fatal punch destroyed the core structure of the entire planet, the world had begun to slowly collapse.
"Where is he?"
Saber asked. Rocket replied with some hesitation, "I don't know.
Quill just told me that after Groot was reborn, he was taken away by Igor, but he doesn't know where he is! "
"Igor? Very good! "
Saber's body turned into a burning flame, pierced under the collapsing crust, and approached the core of Igor's star that was on the verge of disintegration at a super fast speed. When the whole world began to collapse, Igor's pain was unimaginable, but as a planet life form, Igor was not so fragile. Even in the process of disintegration, he could still maintain a kind of cruel rationality.
When he felt that the fiend was rapidly approaching, Igor gathered all his divine power and reinforced it in front of Saber, building a thick wall of divine power to buy enough time for his brain of wisdom to move.
Although most of the planet's transformation was not completed because Quill was rescued, some of the asteroids had already been transformed. As long as there was time to reorganize, Igor could be reborn in another world in another form.
As long as his body still existed, the transformation could be restarted at any time. As long as he avoided Saber, the fiend, Quill alone could not stop him from restarting the transformation. Even if Saber was not willing to let him go, he could only lurk for a few hundred years, or at most a few thousand years. When Saber's name completely disappeared from this part of the starry sky, he could still make a comeback.
Time, which was like a poison to mortals, was still firmly on his side!
"Igor! Come out! "
"Bang"
The first layer of divine power enchantment was easily shattered by Saber. The vibration brought about by the vibration of this divine power doubled the speed at which the planet's outer shell fell off. Looking from the universe, it looked like a large walnut that was being rapidly flung by someone. The outer shell was rapidly peeling off, and even at the periphery of this collapsing planet, it quickly formed a circle of gravel that was getting thicker and thicker.
In the face of Saber's angry roar, Igor silently increased the speed of his transfer. A gorgeous light curtain lit up at the periphery of the planet. Igor's divine power broke through the barrier of space. Seeing this scene, Silver Shadowman jumped onto his silver skateboard without saying a word and disappeared into the interior of the spaceship with a whoosh. The next moment, the super-large space positioning system, which represented the imminent arrival of Star Swallowing, was activated at the same time.
The body of the universe's god was still hundreds of millions of light years away, but his tyrannical consciousness had already passed through space and descended under this part of the starry sky. With just a rough scan, the speed at which Star Swallowing opened the space crack suddenly increased. Obviously, he had also discovered the existence of Igor here. Igor was a "delicacy" that was hard to find in the vast universe and the infinite Milky Way.
"Igor! Come out! "
The scythe in Saber's hand swept up a sharp blade, and the three layers of divine power walls set up by Igor were completely crushed by the purple and blue flames. Under the enhancement of the power gem, although Saber's life level did not increase in essence, his destructive power had far exceeded his natural level. Wherever he went, the high-temperature flames engulfed the crumbling planet's crust, and in an instant, the life contained within was sucked dry and turned into gravel that dissipated in the collapsing world.
"Bang"
The strongest part of the planet's crust was shattered by Saber's punch. The power was so great that even the surrounding plates were disintegrated. In the narrow area of the planet's innermost part, which was only the size of a city, all kinds of stone pillars crisscrossed. In the dizzying complex structure, the innermost core of the intelligent brain was wrapped up in a real walnut-like defense.
However, when Saber broke into the innermost part of Igor's Star, the stone pillars had already lit up like stars in the starry sky, like electrified cables. Obviously, Igor was carrying out some kind of mysterious operation here, and it had already reached the most critical moment. The moment Saber rushed into the stone pillars, four violent tentacles of light pierced toward Saber's body from four directions.
These tentacles, which could even pierce through planets, were the embodiment of Igor's most original power. When it first appeared in the universe, it was just a simple intelligent brain. You couldn't expect such a physiological structure to evolve into a hard skeleton. During its first "hunt", Igor used such soft divine tentacles, which was also its most skillful attack method.
It would use its enormous will to interfere with the opponent, and then use entanglement, suffocation, division, high-speed slashes, and long-range light pillars to resist the opponent. In fact, after Igor had successfully built a planet's defense for itself, it no longer had any opponents in this part of the starry sky.
However … this thing's threat to Saber was almost zero!
"Swoosh swoosh swoosh"
Three light arcs brushed past the narrow space, and the light ribbons slashed at Saber's body in the form of sharp swords. The latter did not dodge and allowed the light ribbons to create dazzling sparks on his body, but they could not even penetrate his skin.
The power stone did not only increase strength, but also defense. With a sixteenfold increase in strength, it was equivalent to Saber's defense being strengthened sixteenfold!
Our attack could not penetrate the opponent's armor!
"Igor! Is that all you've got? "
Saber flipped his wrist, and the war scythe wrapped in flames moved back and forth. A sharp blade storm surged around his body, crushing the divine tentacles that attacked again. He raised his head and looked at the Intelligent Brain, which was wrapped in rocks above his head. Saber curled up his legs, and his whole body crashed into the Intelligent Brain's defensive shell.
"You were so domineering when you killed my subordinates! I'm using the same method to deal with you now. You shouldn't have any complaints, right? "
Swoosh!
A third of the stone pillars were cut off in one blow, and Igor's screams resounded through the collapsing planet. The planet trembled and peeled off more rocks. Even its sturdiest core defense, the outer shell that was filled with entanglement of divine power, was cut open.
"Where's Groot?"
"Give him back to me!"
Saber swung his war scythe and slashed at the top of the Intelligent Brain's outer shell again. With a shattering sound, a ray of starry light shone out from the core. It was a huge brain tissue, like some mysterious substance that was completely composed of starlight in the universe.
As Saber swung his scythe, Igor's painful voice sounded at this moment.
"You want the sapling of the Tree of Life?"
"Why should I give it to you?"
"Good question!"
Saber spun the scythe in his hand in a circle. "Either tell me, or die with Groot … I won't ask a third time! Where is he? "
"Just kill me! You won't get anything! "
Igor stubbornly retorted, but on the stone pillars that were not cut off, the light of the stars shone even more intensely.
Saber's eyes flashed fiercely. He held the scythe with both hands and chopped at Igor's exposed brain without hesitation. The purple flame wrapped around the blade was so hot that just feeling it would make Igor's nerves groan in pain.
This lunatic!
He's not faking it at all!
He really wants to kill him!
"Enough!"
Swoosh!
As Igo roared, something was thrown out of a cave by his tentacles. Seiber's figure suddenly disappeared on the spot, and when he reappeared, there was a cute little treant on his shoulder.
It was almost a shrunken version of Groot. It was only the size of a palm, and there was a yellow flower that had just grown on its head. Even its personality was many times more cheerful than that of the silent and melancholic treant.
It seemed that this rebirth was not without a price. When Saber's consciousness came into contact with the little guy's will, he found that the little guy had completely lost its past memories. However, the contract he made with the former Groot was still valid.
"My name is Groot!"
The little treant sat on Saber's shoulder and shouted, pointing at the starlight blooming above his head.
It was a sudden appearance of the light of the stars. It was like the most brilliant halo in the universe was forcibly gathered in this area, forming a passage that connected to an unknown place. In the light column, Igor's brain of wisdom peeled off from its original shell and quickly rushed into the light column.
"Hahahaha!"
Igor's laughter resounded through this world that was beginning to completely collapse.
He shouted, "Time is my ally, and it is your most fatal opponent … Saber Hawk, Overlord, I admit that you are very powerful. You can shelter my good-for-nothing son, but it doesn't matter. When your existence is completely obliterated, my great transformation will still be carried out …"
"I've already won … From the moment I found Quill, I've already won!"
"Saber Hawk, let's part here forever! When you die alone, I might come to see you, hahahaha! "
"My name is Groot!"
The little treant stood on Saber's shoulder and waved its fists wildly at Igor in the sky. It grabbed Saber's hair and questioned him angrily.
"My name is Groot!"
"Hey! Little guy, calm down! "
Saber's figure disappeared from the crust that had completely begun to collapse. With a heavy blow that had accumulated enough power, the collapsed rocks were broken in an instant. Saber's figure appeared in the cold and boundless universe. Groot tightly grabbed Saber's newly grown hair to prevent him from floating into the universe. Saber watched Igor's escape from the perspective of a third party.
A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. He patted Groot's head.
"Don't worry, it's dead for sure!"
"Hahaha! My son Quill, you've won this time! Enjoy the fruits of your hard-won victory! I'm leaving. The next time I return to this starry sky, no one can stop me! "
Igor really didn't seem to regard this failure as a failure. Perhaps he felt that such an outcome wasn't unacceptable, but the problem was that he didn't realize that he was actually still in a very dangerous environment.
It was just like how the most experienced hunter would always tell those inexperienced newbies that only when the prey was completely relaxed and felt that everything was under their control, would it be the best time to strike and deliver a fatal blow!
For example … now!!
"Swoosh!"
A starship as huge as a planet suddenly tore through space and appeared above Igor's starlight stairs. In the starship's boundless radiance, a tall figure wearing a strange purple helmet and purple armor stood up from his throne. He reached out and easily crushed Igor's starlight stairs and held his brain of wisdom in his hand.
The giant looked at the screaming Igor in front of him and nodded with satisfaction. Finally … he threw him into his mouth.
"Crunch, crunch."
