Absolute Great Teacher
Absolute Great Teacher - Chapter 978: Winner Takes All

When the chieftain said that sentence about the will of gods awakening, it was actually referring to the activation of certain installations in the lab. They would release a type of soundwave.

This soundwave could stimulate the plants of the Greenhaze Forest and make them ‘come alive’!

Because this was a phenomenon ordinary people couldn’t understand, it was described as a ‘miracle’. The aboriginals treated this as the divine punishment sent down by the gods.

…

In the comprehensive experimental lab, the plants squirmed violently. Some of them looked like alcoholics who were drunk and acting reckless, and the others were like lunatics dancing to a beat…

In any case, everything was in chaos.

“What’s going on?”

The troops of the Saint Gate were currently clashing against the villains from the Dark Dawn. In the end, they were attacked by the plants in the surroundings.

Even the shrubs grew crazy. The branches and leaves formed into twisted whips, ruthlessly lashed over, or entangled targets before tossing them to the side.

Swish~

Some people brandished their blades and tried to cut these ‘whips’. In the end, green liquid flowed out and drenched their body.

The liquid immediately formed into green spots that expanded rapidly.

“What the hell are these?”

Everyone discovered that their bodies that were stained by these green spots actually showed signs of paralysis. They were gradually turning into fiber, and this caused their movements to stiffen and become incoherent.

Those unlucky people were entangled by the ‘whips’ and tossed to the other plants at the side. The roots of the other plants shot out and choked them to death before dragging them underground and burying them.

This ‘life-burial’ was happening everywhere in the experimental lab as long as there were plants in the vicinity.

Regardless of humans from the Dark Dawn or the Saint Gate, both sides were struggling and doing their best to survive.

The power of nature was mysterious and vast!

Even if one, five, or a hundred plants were destroyed, to this vast stretch of greenness, the casualties were like a drop in the bucket.

These adventurers and risk-takers were sinking in this nature ocean and basically had no way to struggle free. They could only be dragged underground and become fertilizer after they had exhausted their spirit qi.

Lian Fangcao stood on a wall in the holy ground and stared at the crazed plants as well as the invaders who had no place to flee. She then shivered from the bottom of her heart before she knelt and started to pray piously, thanking the gods for their protection.

The other aboriginals also knelt on the ground.

They weren’t attacked not because the gods cared for them. Instead, it was because their genes were from the same source as these plants. Hence, this was the reason for their green-colored fibrous skin.

In the perspective of the plants, the aboriginals were the same species as them.

“I wonder what happened to that human?”

Lian Fangcao’s eyebrows furrowed intensely. If there were no unexpected accidents, that human must have died because no one would be able to escape the punishment of the gods. However, why was the range of the divine punishment so small?

She heard from her grandfather before that the entire forest would come to life, but things seemed different this time around.

…

In the control chamber.

“Invader, have you seen it? This is our strength.”

The chieftain bragged.

(As long as the gods are present, we will be safe.)

“If my guess isn’t wrong, your gods can only issue divine punishment once every twenty or thirty years, right?”

Sun Mo’s lips twitched.

The chieftain’s expression changed because Sun Mo got it half-correct. The chieftain’s father had said before that every time they wanted to use divine punishment, they had to wait 50 years.

“As expected, the equipment here might very well accumulate energy through photosynthesis.”

It was unknown how many years the Xisi people had died, so there was no one who would replenish the energy. In that case, since the experimental lab was continuing to operate, it surely had something like a photosynthesis system that could provide a sustainable energy cycle for itself. After all, even if they used nuclear energy at the start, they would eventually be consumed if the lab didn’t have a sustainable energy cycle model.

“It can only be used a few more times at most.”

Sun Mo started to say frightening words to scare the chieftain. The underlying intent was clear. (I know the reason. If you kill me, your gods will also die. And as long as I live, I can extend the lives of your gods.)

“Nonsense!”

The chieftain was enraged and lifted his hands, wanting to slap Sun Mo’s face.

“The so-called gods of your tribe are the Xisi people. Oh, they should be called the researchers of this experimental lab. They were also the ones who created your tribe.”

Sun Mo revealed another major piece of information.

“Shut up!”

The chieftain roared. He didn’t dare to and didn’t want to continue listening to such blasphemous words.

“By making use of the knowledge and skills left behind by them, you guys should be able to live very well and maybe even reign over the world. However, you guys didn’t do so. You all live a life like that of primitive humans, devouring raw meat and fowl. Don’t you feel that you guys have wasted the ‘inheritances of the gods’?”

Sun Mo was like Jiang Ziya, throwing out a delicious piece of bait.

An Xinhui was silent, but her heart was filled with raging oceans. Sun Mo’s performance was too shocking.

His strength was inferior to the aboriginal chieftain, but his knowledge, his intelligence, his battle tactic, and even his ability to adapt in the midst of a situation far surpassed the chieftain.

“I told you to shut up!”

The chieftain roared and punched out.

Bang!

A huge fist imprint directly appeared on the metal walls.

Sun Mo had wanted to continue and destroy the chieftain’s worldview, so he could influence the chieftain when his thought processes were muddled. But before he could speak, Retaliation Storm was activated.

A colorless and odorless gas permeated the air.

“This is the assassination attempt of the Green-robed Ancestor!”

Sun Mo started to hesitate. Should he expose that fellow? However, he had clearly underestimated the perception of the chieftain.

“Which coward is there?”

The chieftain roared and brandished his fists, punching out.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Air bullets shot forth.

The gas bodies were stirred and dissipated by the wind. But after that, they gathered together and formed the shape of a giant that charged at the chieftain.

“Hide!”

Sun Mo didn’t dare to stay here. He immediately fled toward the back.

An Xinhui’s speed wasn’t slow either.

The chieftain was prepared to kill the two of them first, but that expert hiding in the shadows didn’t give him the chance to do so.

Bang!

The Green-robed Ancestor was then sent flying with a single punch and slammed into the wall.

The chieftain found him. Although he didn’t know magical techniques or arts, his powerful body was strong enough as he was innately born with divine strength.

(No matter who you are, I will crush you with a single punch.)

“What a fearsome body!”

The Green-robed Ancestor sighed in admiration.

The chieftain held his breath, but the poisonous gas would still enter his body through his pores. If the chieftain was an ordinary man, he would have died long ago. But he still looked completely fine.

Hu~

The Green-robed Ancestor went all out as well. A ball of green mist erupted forth as he disappeared. After that, countless gu-bugs of different sizes flew out from within, attacking the chieftain.

Biting, chewing, charging!

A large amount of gu-poison in them invaded the chieftain’s body.

The Green-robed Ancestor was still a shade better. The chieftain’s body was chewed badly, and he fell in a pool of blood.

“Sun Mo, just come out!”

These bugs reformed into the Green-robed Ancestor’s appearance.

Sun Mo walked out. But earlier, he had borrowed the chance and already severed the vines around him.

“What is this place exactly?”

The Green-robed Ancestor asked.

He had reached this place for quite some time and through the monitoring of the bugs, he had heard some information, but his understanding wasn’t complete.

“A comprehensive experimental lab.”

Sun Mo didn’t conceal anything.

“Although you have won, you still have to die. Other than people from my Greenhaze Tribe, no one can escape divine punishment.”

The chieftain only had a few breaths of life left, and he started to feel some regret in his heart.

Maybe the words of the elder were correct.

Just a single old man was already so tough to deal with. What if more human experts of this level came?

The tribe should really find a way out.

“You will have to be disappointed then. I’ve changed the range of the divine punishment. It would only be activated here. Oh, it means that the plants in the holy ground wouldn’t affect the area outside.”

Sun Mo smiled.

“What?”

The chieftain was badly shocked and subconsciously rebutted, “Impossible, I’ve been watching you closely, and you didn’t have the chance to do anything.”

“Yup, I did it secretly under the observation of the elder.”

Sun Mo felt a little complacent. He had managed to save the lives of several people.

“Impossible, that fellow was a wise man. It’s impossible for him to make such a mistake. Also, you shouldn’t know the operating method of the divine punishment either.”

The chieftain was bewildered.

“Because he was a wise man, he was excited at the prospect of unknown knowledge. When I explained to him, I naturally would have the chance to do something.”

Sun Mo also felt very helpless.

The aboriginals didn’t understand these ‘saint weapons’. So, on the monitor, there was various information regarding the divine punishment being recorded, including the amount of energy consumed, the degree of damage, etc…

It was impossible even if Sun Mo didn’t want to look.

“I…I’ll kill you!”

The chieftain raged. As expected, he should have killed Sun Mo right at the start. Very intelligent enemies were truly terrifying.

The Green-robed Ancestor was prepared for the chieftain’s attack. Before he could do anything, a gu-bug shot forward like a bullet and blasted the head of the chieftain.

Pu!

The chieftain’s head exploded like a watermelon.

“Old Ancestor, we meet again.”

Sun Mo greeted.

“Can you tell me how you managed to get rid of the bugs’ control?”

The Green-robed Ancestor was curious.

“It’s through ingesting honey from the crown bees. When Lu Cangqiong chased and tried to kill me with the puppets, I discovered this by chance.”

Sun Mo was very obedient and spoke the truth.

“Outstanding!”

The Green-robed Ancestor flashed a thumbs-up. “Were you the one who killed Cangqiong?”

“He was killed by the aboriginals.”

Sun Mo chortled.

“You don’t have to be nervous. Even if you were his killer, just with your talent alone, I would be reluctant to harm you.”

The Green-robed Ancestor sighed. His right hand was placed behind his back, and he revealed the posture of a respected elder. “Just kneel and kowtow. This is your final chance.”

“…”

Sun Mo had a bitter look on his face.

“Don’t hesitate anymore. You have no choice.”

The Green-robed Ancestor urged.

“What if I have?”

After Sun Mo spoke, he smashed his fist onto a blue button on the operating desk.

Bang!

“Oh no!”

The expression of the Green-robed Ancestor changed. His entire person crumbled into countless gu-bugs that flew toward Sun Mo.

He wasn’t careless. But after several fights against formidable opponents, he was injured, and much of his mental energy had been exhausted.

Naturally, Sun Mo was exceedingly tough to deal with and this was also a reason.

Rumble~!

The floor beneath Sun Mo and An Xinhui opened, and the two of them directly fell. After that, the openings were sealed and the entire control chamber emitted breaking sounds. The surrounding metallic walls all descended together as well.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The Green-robed Ancestor smashed the floor. “Sun Mo, scram out for me!”

But very soon, the Green-robed Ancestor gave up on killing Sun Mo, preparing to leave instead. He felt very uneasy as though he had stepped into a trap.

However, it was already too late.

Bzz! Bzz! Bzz!

Numerous beams of red light shot out. They intersected with each other and when they came in contact with the bugs, the bugs evaporated into thin air straight away.

“What happened above?”

Upon hearing the loud sound and screams, An Xinhui felt her scalp turning numb.

“I activated the final defensive measure.”

At this moment, Sun Mo felt extremely lucky. It was super fortunate that he had bought the Xisi Language, or he would have had no way to overturn the situation.

Now, it seemed that his 200,000 points were extremely well-spent.

The most important area in the ecology battleship was the control zone. Its existence was akin to the brain, and it was also the final fort of the Xisi people.

They had also thought things through. Once the defenses of the battleship were broken, they definitely had to secure the safety of the control chamber. A method was to make the defense here extremely sturdy so they could have enough time to destroy some important information.

Right now, Sun Mo was using the defensive measures here to kill the Green-robed Ancestor.

(I should be able to win now, right?)

Sun Mo inhaled deeply and listened to the commotion above, preparing to finish off his wounded enemy.
