Chapter 5

“I used too much strength.”

Lin Meng observed the other party’s reaction and sensed his own strength.

Usually, wild beasts, such as rabbits and green snakes, would be stabbed to death by the branches if they were within ten meters of him.

As for the red fox, it was only due to its strange appearance that Lin Meng did not kill it.

Otherwise, with the strength of his tree roots, which were several times stronger than the branches, he could have strangled the red fox to death in an instant.

The bones were broken.

The red fox was not dead yet. Lin Meng controlled the tree roots and brought the red fox’s body closer to his main body.

Through the visual perception between the treetops, Lin Meng could clearly see the red fox’s ruby-like clear eyes.

They were very beautiful.

They were like the eyes of a fairy.

However, at this moment, Lin Meng suddenly felt a daze, and then the tree roots loosened.

“Not good.”

Lin Meng’s heart trembled as he realized something.

It was indeed not good.

Following his line of sight, he saw that the red fox, which had been tightly entangled by his tree roots, had already landed on the ground.

At this moment, this red fox also propped itself up, wanting to escape.

Unfortunately.

He was really too close to Lin Meng.

Within a ten-meter radius around Lin Meng’s body, he would definitely be killed.

Swoosh!

The branches shot out.

With a piercing sound, a green whip shot towards the red fox.

Then, without waiting for the red fox to react, another sound pierced through the air.

If the red fox could speak, it would definitely curse.

However, even if it could not speak, it looked at the dense branches in the sky that blocked its way.

A hint of despair appeared on the red fox’s face.

It even let out waves of sorrowful cries.

“Kyuu kyuu!”

The red fox’s cries were not pleasant to hear. The male’s cry was usually “gyoo gyoo,” while the female’s was “kyuu kyuu.”

However, at this moment, this red fox’s cry had an additional tinge of sadness.

It made people unable to help but feel sorrowful.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Circles of white airwaves stopped one meter away from the red fox.

The red fox was stunned. The airwaves were caused by the branches that stopped beside her.

However, in her daze, a green branch had already slowly extended out and was approaching her.

She was a little afraid.

The red fox could not help but take half a step back.

However, the suspended branches behind her were aimed at her like guns.

She did not dare to take another step back.

The red fox was stunned.

She did not dare to resist.

She realized how dangerous it was.

It could even be said that her life was in the control of the branches.

And just as the red fox was on guard and terrified…

The branch that was slowly approaching landed on her head.

He used a tender leaf to gently stroke her fur.

“It feels pretty good.”

Lin Meng felt the softness of the branch and his heart skipped a beat.

Not only did the fur of this red fox look beautiful, it felt as warm and comfortable as a down jacket.

However, looking at the red fox that was resisting but did not dare to resist, Lin Meng smiled.

He did not have the intention to kill this red fox.

Now that he had seen the peculiarity of this red fox with his own eyes, he couldn’t bear to do it.

Fortunately, this red fox was smart and didn’t resist.

Otherwise, Lin Meng wouldn’t mind beating it half to death and researching it later.

As for now.

He could try to tame it.

Before he tamed it, Lin Meng seemed to have thought of something and fiddled with the branch.

Clang!

As the branch broke, a drop of green liquid seeped out.

This was some of the essence liquid that flowed in Lin Meng’s body.

Looking at the injured red fox, Lin Meng planned to try using the essence liquid on the other party’s wound.

If it was beneficial to the red fox, it would not be difficult to tame the red fox.

If this essence liquid was highly toxic, then Lin Meng could only say it was a pity for the red fox.

After all, this was just a whim of his.

Moments later.

Drip.

The liquid that seeped out of the broken branch condensed into a drop and dripped onto the red fox’s head.

Immediately after, under Lin Meng’s stunned gaze, the red fox’s entire body trembled slightly.

Then, it lifted up, as if it had been stimulated.

Its entire body suddenly fell to the ground.

“Quack!”

The red fox let out a cry that sounded like a duck’s. Her sharp claws tore at the ground.

Prickle, prickle.

Deep trenches appeared on the ground.

At this moment, Lin Meng noticed.

The sharp claws of this red fox were extremely sharp.

This made him feel incredulous.

The body of this red fox was actually growing.

How long had it been?

The red fox’s body that was originally one meter long had already grown to more than one meter.

She looked like a cheetah.

However, compared to a cheetah, she looked more elegant. Her fur was as big as a flame.

Her pair of deep red eyes seemed to be burning with flames. It was very beautiful.

“Is this evolution?”

Lin Meng’s voice was slightly puzzled. He took a look at his broken branch.

This branch had already withered and yellowed. It was no longer under his control.

Lin Meng’s heart tightened.

He understood. If he extracted the essence of the branch, it would affect his body.

Fortunately, he only extracted one branch.

Lin Meng guessed it.

There was some essence flowing in his body, which might be the specific manifestation of the evolution point.

After all, the greatest benefit of the evolution point was that Lin Meng could completely control his own body.

Without evolution, Lin Meng’s branch could no longer be controlled.

Although it could still sway slightly, it had already lost the power to break rocks.

“Perhaps, time can allow this branch to recover.”

Lin Meng guessed.

Half a day later.

A red fox, which was comparable to a calf, stuck out its tongue intimately and licked Lin Meng’s branch.

This was an animal.

They were subservient to their instincts and did not have complex thoughts like humans.

If you could treat it well and help it, it would be close to you.

Now, because of some of the essence that could allow the red fox to evolve, the red fox surrendered.

However, it was worth mentioning that this red fox seemed to be more than just a beast.

Its red fur was like a flame and it was even more flamboyant.

Its body was comparable to that of a calf. Not only was it strong but it also looked more powerful and beautiful.

Moreover, more importantly, this red fox’s eyes seemed to be burning like flames.

They were getting brighter and brighter.

At this moment, Lin Meng seemed to have discovered something.

Above the red fox’s head, a light screen like his attribute panel appeared.

Race: Mutated Red fox.

Level: Entry Rank 4.

Special Ability: Eye of Enchantment – Gorgeous eyes are the most eminent jewels of the world, possessing the magical power of enchantment.

“Level? Entry rank?”

Looking at this brand new term, Lin Meng was a little puzzled.

However, after a moment, he thought of something and pulled his consciousness onto himself.
