Chapter 547: 547 Memories

*Hustle* *Hustle*

The buds were silent for a few seconds after Robin finished speaking, and then they exploded with a tremendous racket, some of them mocking him, some of them wailing that the Tree Father might really be dead, and some of them started trying to rally their brothers again to complete the battle.

The buds looked like they were about to advance again, so the millions of human soldiers moved to raise their weapons again and prepare to strike at any moment, but the order to attack did not come, but rather more of Robin's words:

Robin ignored all the sounds around him and continued as if he did not hear anything, "Listen carefully, even though you are at best just a moving plant with an artificial soul, you are still capable of thinking and feeling pain and sadness. I do not want the decision to exterminate you to be in my hands, so for once in your lifetime, use your brains for something useful..."

Then he continued without pausing, "I will give you two options without a third: The first is for you to surrender and become slaves under the True Beginning Empire. You must know what the duties of slaves are, right? The weak ones among you will have to farm and plow the land, reap the fruits, graze the livestock, and so on~ As for the stronger ones they will have help in industry, construction, and participate in wars. The good side is that whoever chooses to be a slave will have the right to demand a permanent supply of life energy from the Empire. Of course, I do not have to explain the importance of life energy to you, all I can say is that the life energy you will get from us will be even better than what your Tree Father had ever given you. As for the bad side, there is simply no bad side at all, weren't you doing these things for the Tree Father anyway?"

Then his tone and features suddenly turned sharp, "The second option is simply death, you don't have the presence of the Tree Father to provide you with life energy and constantly increase your numbers and lead you anymore, so exterminating you is easier than taking candy from a child. And do not think that by death you will escape from me, no, no.. I will collect your corpses and I feed them to my beasts to make them stronger. Whatever you decide, I am the beneficiary, so my advice is to seek your salvation. I will give you three hours to make a decision. Whoever wants to change his side will be escorted away from the siege by the Empire's soldiers, and whoever wants to continue the fight to the end should stay where he is!"

*silence...*

The wave of shouting and anger had just calmed down completely, If a needle fell to the ground now everyone would be able to hear its sound.

Robin was right about something. The buds had a human soul after all.

The primal fear of death and the desire to live were deeply engraved within them. Now that a path to escape had been laid out before them, they couldn't help but think seriously.

Some of them tried again to provoke the masses to engage in the battle right away, and some of them returned to looking at Hoffenheim's body screaming and crying and asking him to give them a sign that he was alive, but unfortunately, the only reply they got was silence.

"Tsk~ This will take time.." Robin muttered when he saw this, then patted Alexander standing next to him on the shoulder, "Prepare roads between the siege for whoever he wants to get out of and prepare places for them to move to. You understand these matters more than I do, so I will leave them to you, after three hours are done, completely wipe out what's left."

"Yes." Alexander nodded and then went to give orders left and right

As for Robin, he backed away until he found a good spot and sat in it

When Caesar finally evaded his responsibilities and came to see his foster father, he found that he had already entered a deep state of meditation...

--------------------------

Within Robin's Soul domain--

This time, Robin's chubby silver avatar was standing in front of something foreign to his soul domain, a small cristal-like ball with curves at the sides and coated in silver soul energy.

This is not the first foreign entity to find its way into Robin's soul domain, in fact, it is the third... Previously, Hoffenheim made a grave mistake when he forced his way inside Robin's soul domain using most of his soul force, and this resulted in his being blown up, which facilitated the war and ultimately led to his death.

Before that, the All-Seeing God sent a fragment of his soul to Robin's mind, which in turn settled within his soul domain. The soul fragment is currently hidden within the soul domain, and Robin can sense it and summon it at any time, but he realizes that it is not something he can tamper with currently, so he chooses to ignore its presence completely, or At least until he needs to summon the All-Seeing God one day.

As for this small ball, the primal soul of Hoffenheim, it has a special status as it is the first object that Robin brought into his soul domain with his consent!

But what does he do with it...

It didn't take long for Robin to raise his hand and place it on the ball, then activate the Soul Searching Technique.

Although Hoffenheim gave the order to self-destruct and kill himself, his primal soul was prevented from being completely destroyed. His soul may have been damaged and his consciousness may have been wiped clean. However, he may find some lingering memories!

And as expected, the soul search has already begun to bear some fruit...

The destruction in the soul was very chaotic. Robin easily found new memories and memories dating back 500 thousand years, but they were all incomplete as if he was reading a book full of holes and torn pages.

But even reading a book full of holes will give some information here and there... For example, Robin finally understood what "returning to Earth" was, which Hoffenheim mentioned more than once before he chose suicide.

Treant creatures, by their nature, are really just plants that gained consciousness, their branches turn into heads and arms, and their roots turn into feet. But in the end, even plants have a specific lifespan, so the natural Trent, although it lives several times the life span of a normal human, nevertheless dies in the end.

It has not been mentioned in history that a normal treant creature has lived for more than 10 thousand years other than the ancient treants that later on named themselves the Tree Fathers, this life span is even lower than the life span of some of the vegetation on Planet Greenland.

What exactly is an ancient treant? Why do they have this much longer lifespan? And why do the other treants worship them and head their calls? This is was mystery that has been troubling the minds of people in Greenland for a very long time but without an answer.

So what is the story of the ancient Treant? According to the Tree Father's memories, They are ordinary Treant creatures who gained consciousness and lived an ordinary Treant life, but in the end, they discovered a way in which they could once again put their roots in the ground and become a whole tree again, Why? Although they lose all means of movement and communication with others without an intermediary, in this way, they can escape the short life cycle of a Treant and at the same time retain their intelligent souls.

The rest of the Treant creatures viewed the Treants who returned to Earth as ancestors who should be revered and their wisdom shall be followed, but in the end that was all the ancient Treant gained, a look of respect and some aimless longevity, so not all Treants chose this path even if they discovered the way of returning to earth...

Of course, Long life and awareness also gave the ancient Treant an opportunity to contemplate the world and become one with the planet to a certain degree, but that was all.

*What you need is your knowledge and link with the world if you can't even move or speak.* This is what normal treants would say to themselves when presented with the idea of going back to earth themselves, they would respect and worship these wise ancient treants, but never become one... This is why throughout the history of planet Greenland there were only 50 or do ancient treants.

Even though the humans and the other races on Planet Greenland before the cultivation era had heard about the expenses called ancient treants, they had never seen one in action and this is why they never saw them as a threat.

Or at least, that was it until they discovered energy cultivation.
