I started by enhancing cancer cells and uniquely obtained the Godhood Sequence.

This time, Lin Mo showed no mercy, unleashing the destructive special effects to their fullest extent.

"Bang—Bang!!!"

Mephistos's main trunk was directly destroyed. This was not a random choice of location for the trunk, but rather a key point where the tree people connected to the earth.

Under the attack of the Destructive Hand, the roots of the tree snapped off.

The towering Mephistopheles, which had once reached into the clouds, began to tilt uncontrollably toward the ground.

Although the tree has a tangled root system, it is ultimately too tall!

In addition, the corrosive swamp has completely swallowed up all life around it, including mountains and trees.

The only thing that can support her standing tall and upright is the main trunk.

With the main trunk broken and no support around her, her heavy body caused her to fall rapidly.

"Bang—!"

She crashed heavily into the corrosive swamp she had created, splashing up countless droplets of swamp liquid.

The corrosive liquid exploded and scattered like flowers from a fairy's shower.

Her heavy body prevented her from getting up from the ground for a short time, and she could only struggle in the swamp she had created, sinking deeper and deeper.

"Roar roar roar!!!"

She let out a series of angry roars, and countless branches spread from her body, attacking Lin Mo in mid-air.

"snort!"

Lin Mo sneered, neither retreating nor dodging, and unleashed a barrage of attacks on the branches that were attacking like snake thorns from behind.

Countless thick branches could only turn into wood chips, falling from the sky.

Having fallen into the swamp, Mephitus was unable to attack Lin Mo with the corrosive acid from the swamp, and as for the attack on the branches, it was insignificant to him.

Lin Mo looked coldly at Mephitus, who was struggling in his own swamp, his expression slightly somber.

Clearly, this contracted beast has gone astray.

But here's the question: should we prune her branches or cut her off completely?

At this moment, Mia asked the same question:

"Boss, what should we do with her now?"

Mia carried the tiny, skinny Murong Taotao, who looked pitifully at Lin Mo and pleaded:

"Lord Lin, I beg you, please don't kill Mephistopheles! She... she's my friend. She's always been protecting me. Otherwise, with my strength, I wouldn't have survived until now..."

You're wrong.

Lin Mo coldly interrupted her.

Amid Murong Taotao's astonished gaze, Lin Mo said coldly:

"The power of the contracted beast does not come from itself, but from you. The truly powerful one... has always been you."

Murong Taotao was stunned: "How is this possible..."

She always believed that her strength came entirely from Mephistopheles.

Without Mephistopheles, she wouldn't have been able to survive even the early stages of the game, let alone become one of the top powerhouses on Earth.

But now Lin Mo tells her that it has never been Mephistopheles who is powerful, but rather she who is powerful.

Mia slapped her forehead: "So you didn't know all along?"

Mia was completely stunned.

Murong Taotao actually thought that Mephistopheles was carrying her?

If it is a summoned beast formed through an acquired contract, then that might indeed be the case.

However, for summoned beasts with divinely bestowed talents and bound attributes, all their talents and characteristics come from their master.

Similar to Lin Mo's infection, Mia, Li Mingliang, and others were able to inherit some of his talents.

Murong Taotao's contractual relationship is even more extreme.

She bestowed almost all of her divinely gifted talents upon Mephistopheles, hoping that he would protect her.

Therefore, Murong Taotao has always appeared extremely weak. Her own stats are only barely comparable to those of players of the same level, and are not outstanding.

Of course, many people also believe that she is a summoner, which is normal.

Even Murong Taotao himself thought so.

Mephistopheles must be very powerful on his own.

Mia was speechless:

"All of Mephistopheles' talent and potential come from you, so you can choose to take it back at any time."

At this point, she looked disdainfully at Mephistopheles struggling in the swamp and said:

"Now you can tell her who the master really is. Once you choose to reclaim your talent potential, you won't even need to lift a finger. This master-devouring creature will be submerged in the corrosive swamp it created."

"In the end, he was just an ordinary tree-man at first."

Lin Mo remained noncommittal. Was Mephistopheles an ordinary tree-man?

of course not!

An ordinary tree spirit would not be able to withstand Murong Taotao's curse talent.

She must have similar habits or characteristics to Murong Taotao to be attracted to him and thus summoned from another dimension.

Simply put, this treant is indeed the summon that best matches Murong Taotao, and is the most suitable for her curse talent.

But as Lin Mo said, Mephistopheles, just like in his previous life, has completely gone astray.

The field-type summons around Mephisto are best at setting up terrain, and worst at direct combat.

The fact that he has now evolved into such a large and conspicuous "pillar" is naturally an extremely funny way of evolving.

However, it is also related to the fact that Murong Taotao, as the master, did not guide him properly.

This is the consequence of letting summoned beasts grow freely.

The relationship between a summoner and their summoned creatures is not one where the summoner simply summons them and then ignores them.

Overall, Murong Taotao was indeed not a competent master.

Just as Lin Mo raised his arm, intending to bombard Mephistopheles from afar, Murong Taotao suddenly spoke up:

"Lin, City Lord Lin, I want to keep her here."

Lin Mo turned to look at her, while the eight-armed demonic hand behind him continued to bombard the rapidly approaching branches.

However, it was as simple as sweeping away dust, so precise that not even a single speck of dust would fly onto Mia and Murong Taotao.

This made Mia exclaim in admiration!

Everyone says that her master is like her, belonging to the type of fighter who uses violent output and has a wide-ranging fighting style.

But only she, who had fought Lin Mo, knew that Lin Mo's fighting style was incredibly efficient, and that he didn't actually rely on brute force.

Lin Mo would only resort to pure numerical dominance like Mia when the gap between them was already significant.

In most cases, Lin Mo's combat choices are the most efficient ones available at the moment.

For example, he directly pulled her up from the ground when she was using the Earth Titan Domain.

It may seem crude and simple, but it is actually clean, efficient, and hits the nail on the head.

The Eight-Armed Demon Hand has not become more rugged despite advancing to the Eternal Realm; on the contrary, it handles battles with extreme finesse.

"Tsk, this is the kind of evolution I wanted. Suddenly I'm starting to have some ideas about sequences..."

Mia's eyes lit up, and she thought to herself.

Lin Mo ignored her and looked at Murong Taotao.

If Murong Taotao had just asked if he could spare Mephisto's life, then he would have mercilessly killed the out-of-control tree-man.

But what Murong Taotao said was that he wanted to keep her.

This is different.
