After the strategy meeting, Velin swiftly assigned tasks. He gave full authority over the defensive deployment to Diana, who was more familiar with the troops, and assigned Tristan to assist her using all the domain's resources.
Now, the most vulnerable link in the entire battle plan rested on his shoulders.
The final dam that would complete the encirclement had to be indestructible.
A massive seawater cultivation tank dominated the center of the laboratory.
Following the optimization plan from the system panel, Velin had catalyzed the growth for several hours. A new generation of fast-growing Red Leaf Trees had now taken shape.
Inside the tank, the deep purple trunk's surface had a rough, rock-like texture, a stark contrast to the reddish-brown parent specimen.
Velin picked up an iron hammer and smashed it down on a sample of the trunk he had taken from the tank.
CLANG!
Sparks flew. The webbing of Velin's thumb went numb as the recoil sent the hammer bouncing back.
