As Mina invaded, the demon tree still trying to shake off the frost immediately went berserk, and hundreds of long whip-like branches instantly lost their attack accuracy. Bilenna nimbly dodged and then began to maneuver around the other tree monsters coming in to encircle her.

Chun could see it now; this Bilenna may appear human in form, but she has a much lower body weight than a human, making her movements undoubtedly swift and graceful. Along with Sherry's frost that slows them down and Six's enchanting singing, she maneuvered effortlessly.

Conquering them should only be a matter of time.

But once they've been converted to our side, we have to consider their ability to protect themselves. They can't seem this weak, right?

Chun asked, "Bilenna, what are the strengths of these demon trees?"

Bilenna smiled and said, "Of course, they have high defense, high magic resistance, are fast, and can recover life. Their weakness is they've long been growing in high-temperature lava swamps, making them extra susceptible to cold, which is why Sherry's continual attacks have been effective." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Fast speed? Indeed! The way their roots grip the ground like an octopus is truly mind-bending. I was stunned the first time I encountered it.

As long as they have these individual strengths, plus the unified command of the Tree God, they should be able to protect themselves.

But it's been several minutes, and Mina hasn't come out!

Chun felt a bit panicked! Granted, the old man's dream in acquiring tea, sugar, smoke, and beans took nearly half an hour; this few minutes is nothing, but not being on site feels like time is dragging on forever.

Until the hostile red label of the demon tree turned light red!

There's progress, and Chun finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, a few more minutes later, the demon tree turned to a yellow name and stopped attacking!

Then Mina flew out excitedly holding a small orb of light, "Master, I did it."

——System prompt: Congratulations! Your team member, High Tier Dragon Soul Nightmare Mina, obtained the Essence of Dreams "Heart of Desolation."

Chun sighed in relief, "I was so worried!"

Bilenna laughed, "I told you, the thoughts of tree spirits are particularly simple. With Miss Mina's strength, there's absolutely no problem. Moreover, Six is a god too, with her continuous singing, the mental suppression effect is completely different."

Mina laughed, "Miss Bilenna is right, but it still took me some time. I think since these tree spirits' minds are so simple, and with the Tree God's hand, it would be perfect for the lady master to teleport their other sisters over to practice, otherwise, how could I handle so many trees all by myself?"

Bilenna laughed, "Indeed, there are 318 tree spirits in total. Even if one is resolved in a minute, that's still 5 hours."

Holy Shit, that makes sense! Five hours, the sky will be dark, and by then I have other arrangements. It's hard to say if there's a sudden situation requiring my urgent attention...

Chun's heart skipped a beat, "Can Aileen teleport 99 Dancing Maidens at once with such a scale?"

Bilenna stated, "It might be difficult to teleport elsewhere, but perfectly fine to teleport beside Six. With Six's divine power, her burden will be greatly reduced."

Chun got excited, "Okay, let's notify Aileen then."

Aileen was excited upon receiving the message, "Sure, Six can assist me nicely, I'll gather the personnel right away..."

Then Chun looked at the withered yellow Essence of Dreams with puzzlement, "What's this good for?"

Bilenna laughed, "Whatever its use is, just plant it in Aileen's Divine Domain."

Mina said, "The consciousness space I entered in the tree monster was an environment where trees and grass were dying. It seems similar to human nightmare monsters."

Um...

Chun had a foreboding feeling, "My Divine Domain is supposed to have harvests and farming; I feel it's not quite suitable. But Bilenna's consciousness space has similar tree monsters. Why not give it to Bilenna? Maybe she can cultivate stronger tree monsters or something like Power of Nature..."

Bilenna chuckled, "Fine, but look at these trees; the colors are different. They might not all be bad seeds. There might be good ones for Aileen to use, right?"

Hopefully, may it benefit all.

While chatting, a spatial gate opened beside Six's tree root, and the Dancing Maidens swarmed out.

Holy Shit, so efficient!

Mina immediately began arranging, "Attention all ten groups, each group is responsible for one demon tree. If you encounter difficulties, use your agile dance moves to evade, and wait for my support..."

"Master, we are ready!"

It seems Mina understands the strength of both sides well! Chun was content, "Then let's set off!"

With Sherry unleashing another round of frost, a group of tree monsters was further slowed down, and 100 Dancing Maidens divided into ten groups leaped forward, causing the tree monsters' offensive to become disorganized and stagnant again!

And then Chun realized that he and Bilenna were entirely superfluous!

The direct consciousness-invading Nightmare strike was so strong, it was like a virus taking over! If Oak City encounters higher-level Nightmares——

Chun suddenly realized, "Dear, if Bai gets invaded by Nightmares while studying abroad, what should we do?"

Bilenna laughed, "She's not weak, oh! Let's not forget she has the mixed blood of you and me."

Um, I'm not sure my blood... Well, hundreds of years of travel, a hundred-year vintage...

In no time, a demon tree's hostile symbol faded with visible speed!

This must be the one Mina personally led, achieving this speed in less than a minute; impressive.

Two minutes later, the demon tree changed from a red label to a neutral yellow label.

Mina appeared holding a green glowing orb, "Master, another essence!"

——System prompt: Congratulations! Your team member, High Tier Dragon Soul Nightmare Mina, obtained the Essence of Dreams "Heart of the Wild," and your team's 10 Dancing Maiden spirits gained battle experience, thus enhancing their strength.

Bilenna beamed, "See, I told you there's something suitable for Aileen!"

Chun was ecstatic, "Great! Everyone continue!"

The team's morale was high, "Yes, Master!"

Mina smiled, "First, let's support the other sisters..."

The more, the merrier. Previously, Mina needed 10 minutes per spirit; now it's down to about 5 minutes. As the team continuously gains battle experience, their overall strength keeps improving. Soon it will get faster, and over three hundred tree monsters could be settled in a single night.

As for these two now neutral tree monsters... well, for now, the task is to dissolve hostility and win over hearts—the tree hearts, perhaps Six will need to spend some more time in the future...

Indeed, two minutes later, another "Heart of Desolation" was obtained within the third tree under Mina's team support!

Bilenna twirled with excitement: "Dear, what could be happier than gaining while dancing?"

Isn't it only two? You're this excited...

Chun laughed, "Of course, gaining more harvests, gaining more power..."
