National Gardener: I can choose the evolution path of spiritual plants.

Chapter 82 Evolution
The Black Turtle was particularly angry, saying, "These guys are accelerating the demise of our civilization! The World Tree is already half dead, and its roots have been sealed for thousands of years. If it is destroyed like this, the World Tree will be completely destroyed sooner or later."

Lin Zhi knew why he was so angry.

Because the World Tree and civilization are bound to some extent, when civilization is destroyed, the fate of the World Tree is either to be swallowed by other World Trees and become a part of them, or to be replaced by a new civilization.

If the World Tree is destroyed, the civilization that depends on the world will collapse directly and fall into the abyss.

Damaging the World Tree to extract its juice is something that even a person with cerebral palsy would not do.

That's why Lin Zhi said that what Xuangui said before that the orc natives were crazy was true.

"We can't let them continue like this, you have to stop them!" Black Turtle said anxiously.

"Stop? Are you crazy or am I? We are being hunted! Besides, there is a Saint Crown Realm in charge here, I can't defeat him."

Lin Zhi said quickly.

"If the World Tree dies, this world will completely wither, and neither you nor I will have any chance of survival."

The black tortoise gnashed its teeth.

"Isn't there a World Sapling?"

Lin Zhi asked.

"The world tree that owns the world is the real world tree. This world tree sapling only records the information of our civilization."

The black tortoise continued, "Even if I have to burn my true spirit and pay the price of its annihilation, I will help you temporarily improve your cultivation to the Holy Crown and stop them!"

"Yes, but not now!"

Lin Zhi narrowed his eyes, thought for three seconds, and spoke slowly.

It is unrealistic for him to find a passage out of the ground now, and the pursuers behind him will sooner or later completely destroy the golden stalagmite and catch up.

In addition, he has a mission and must find his mentor Meng Xingchen as soon as possible. Otherwise, once the wild beast world falls completely, human civilization will not only be defeated in this war of aggression, but his own life will also be in danger.

But his cultivation was still too weak. After all, he was just a student who had not graduated from university.

Under normal circumstances, one should receive training in college and then work hard in society, until a comfortable environment can no longer improve one's strength, and then one will choose to enter this kind of civilized battlefield to seek opportunities.

But now, a trial that was originally 99% safe has encountered a major change that mankind has not seen in a hundred years, and the situation has become what it is now.

As a result, he, a gardener who barely made the promotion to Red Moon, had to face the purple sun and holy crown all over the sky, and even the divine ring and half-step legend that he didn't know when they would appear.

The gap in strength is too big and it cannot be improved overnight.

His trump card is the true spirits of the Black Turtle Clan who are at least of the divine ring.

The manual had given him so many spiritual plants with extraordinary potential, but he chose none of them and instead chose the Holy Turtle Spirit Lotus to preserve the true spirit of the Black Turtle clan. This was naturally not because of his noble character, but because of interests!
Whether it is the bonus of the True Spirit Armor or the temporary improvement in the other party's cultivation level due to the voluntary burning of the True Spirit, these are real benefits, and are also the trump card for whether he can successfully meet Meng Xingchen.

Lin Zhi knew this in his heart, and Xuan Gui also understood it in his heart.

They had already made up their minds to face the divine ring or even stronger ones, and burn themselves to help Lin Zhi escape.

Since they are trump cards, these black tortoise spirits are extremely important and cannot be wasted in the slightest.

Therefore, Lin Zhi did not immediately agree to the other party's burning of his true spirit, but rushed out directly.

After all, the burning time of the true spirit is not long, and it only improves the realm of cultivation, but the evolutionary level of the spiritual plant remains the same as it is now.

Therefore, in order to maximize his trump card, he needs to evolve the spiritual plant first.

After so many days of escape, his spiritual plants had already accumulated enough energy to evolve into a crescent moon or even a fan moon, but he had not had time to deal with it.

Now that he finally has time, he decides to improve his own strength first.

He looked around, found a hidden place near the dark river, and then entered the source earth realm.

As his feet stepped on the purple soul soil, Lin Zhi felt a little safe.

Feeling the emotions conveyed by the old pea and other spiritual plants, he moved all the black tortoise's storage in the warehouse. Then, he stared at the old pea, and a strong idea of ​​evolution came into his mind.

Soon, the sound of selecting a manual sounded in his mind.

[Your Old Phlegm Pea has reached the Fan Moon evolution conditions. Based on your current situation and resources, you can choose two of the following evolution directions. ]

[Option 5: Absolute Tracking (The attack launched by Old Phlegm Pea will automatically track the enemy and continue to fly for minutes before hitting the enemy.]

[Option 2: Super sticky phlegm (The thick phlegm attached to the peas fired by the old phlegm peas will greatly increase the stickiness.]

[Choice 3: Toxic Swamp (After the peas fired by Old Phlegm Pea melt and gather on the ground to a certain amount, a Toxic Swamp is formed, and the toxicity is greatly increased.]

[Choice 4: Explosion (The old phlegm pea splits into one main and nine branches.]

[Choice 5: Super Giant Expansion (Old Phlegm Pea fuses all the gun barrels, expands its body, and forms a super giant pea.]

Lin Zhi watched the choices silently. Just like before, the prompt text in the manual was not a fixed template, but changed according to his own situation.

This time, perhaps because of the limited types of resources he had and his situation, the manual only gave five choices.

He considered the options one by one, and at first glance, all five seemed good.

So we can only use the method of elimination. If we want to choose the appropriate evolutionary direction, we first need to position the Pea Shooter.

What is the positioning of the Pea Shooter?
The first positioning is long-range output, so hit rate is extremely important.

There were no skills like absolute hit before. The Pea Shooter's attack relied entirely on speed, quantity and terrain. When facing opponents who were weaker than itself, it could clear the battlefield.

However, when facing an enemy that is stronger than oneself, it is difficult to kill them effectively.

Therefore, option one is a must. With absolute tracking, the damage of Old Phlegm Pea can hit the enemy.

What about the second option? It increases the control ability of the Pea Shooter. With the Creep Farm, this ability can be discarded.

The third option is also biased towards control. Although the toxic ability is good, it cannot sustain a long-lasting battle in general, so it can also be abandoned.

The fourth and fifth options represent two directions.

One is to increase the flexibility of the Pea Shooter. In the previous star levels, the rotating attack, attack speed, etc. were all to enhance its soul.

But even though Old Tan Pea's 10 gun barrels hit each other, they were still not flexible enough.

If it can be split, there will be more space for operation, which is equivalent to evolving into a mobile turret.

Another thing is to increase the attack area of ​​the Pea Shooter, thereby increasing the attack power of the Old Phlegm Pea. In addition, with the ability of absolute tracking, there is actually no need to consider flexibility. It is equivalent to evolving it into a rail turret.

Lin Zhi thought about it and decided to increase the power of the Pea Shooter.

The reason is that he has a tree house and the enemy can only enter through the gate.

Choosing to split does not change the power, but instead distributes the damage.

Super gigantic is more appropriate.

Of course, this is considering that he is defending the enemy. If he is attacking the enemy, splitting is more useful.

[You have chosen Absolute Tracking and Super Giant Expansion. You can use the following materials to evolve Old Phlegm Pea...]

Lin Zhi checked the evolution plan given in the manual and hurriedly searched for materials. If there were not enough materials, he would use world tree sap crystals to replace them.

Soon, the old pea began to shine, and the crescent moon above its head turned into a "crescent moon" and then into a "fan moon".

The light faded, and its new appearance appeared in front of Lin Zhi.

"Worthy!"
