"Why can't I enter this place? I wrote the script for this world."
Andrew laughed and said he didn’t mind telling others about it, because even if they knew, it wouldn’t change anything. After all, the world had already been born, so what could they do?
"Did you write the script for this world?"
The steel tree stared in disbelief: "How is this possible? This is a real world, how could it be a world from your script?"
"Why is it impossible? Iron Tree, don't use your shallow wisdom and knowledge to measure the truth of this world."
Andrew chuckled and said, "Of course, you don't need to know these things. When I advance to a higher level in the future, I will naturally show you better scenery."
Alright, you steel tree, tell me, are you still loyal?
The steel tree remained silent for a moment, then transformed from its tree form into a human form. At the same time, the surrounding ring fortress was activated, and numerous cannons were aimed at Andrew.
"Boss, of course I am loyal to you, but I would like to have a match with you, just a match."
The Great Iron Tree said that although it spoke humbly, it was clear that it was still unwilling to give up and wanted to try again.
If you lose, there's nothing to say; you'll remain loyal to Andrew. But if you win, then sorry, the King of Superpowers won't be leaving this secret realm.
"Since you want to compete, then let's compete. I never mind you challenging me."
Andrew laughed, saying that this result was not unexpected. The Compound 5 Tree was the protagonist of the world, and it was extremely difficult to make them willingly submit and be 100% loyal.
Andrew put far less effort into the Iron Tree than he did into the Zeus siblings, so it's perfectly normal for the Iron Tree to have its own ideas.
People like the God of Stars are actually oddballs. Of course, the reason the God of Stars became like that was because Andrew used various methods.
In short, the Star God has a loyalty of 100, Zeus and his siblings have a loyalty of over 90, the Iron Tree has a loyalty of around 70, and the Black Dragon has a loyalty of around 80.
"Boss, please have mercy."
Upon hearing Andrew's agreement, the steel tree breathed a sigh of relief. Then, without further ado, it leaped high into the air, and at the same time, countless energy cannons from the ring fortress fired at Andrew, illuminating the entire small space.
Andrew didn't move at all. The next second, he was bombarded by countless energy cannons, but his figure didn't change at all. He was still smiling and waving at the steel tree.
"Illusion? The King of Superpowers has been an illusion from the very beginning, that damned old silver coin."
Startled, the steel tree crashed down in front of Andrew, quickly surveying its surroundings in an attempt to find Andrew's true form.
Seeing this, Andrew raised his hand and squeezed hard, and the fortress began to collapse with cracking sounds, as if a giant hand was gripping the fortress and crushing it.
Upon seeing this, the Steel Tree disregarded the fact that it had painstakingly created the fortress and directly detonated it. The fortress exploded with a deafening roar, sending countless steel fragments flying like a violent storm.
Clearly, the Steel Tree wanted to injure Andrew by self-destructing the fortress, or at the very least, force Andrew to appear.
To the Steel Tree's surprise, the explosion and the "rain" of steel fragments failed to force Andrew out. The entire small space contained only its own phantom and Andrew's image, with no trace of Andrew's true form.
"Boss, hiding isn't your style. Besides, we're having a competition right now. How can we compete if I can't even see you?"
Unable to find Andrew, the steel tree could only shout loudly, hoping to force Andrew out in this way.
"Iron Tree, haven't I been standing right in front of you all along? Don't tell me you're so young, but your eyesight isn't very good?"
Andrew laughed and said, while the steel tree frowned as it looked at Andrew's phantom. This was the real thing? Impossible, right? It hesitated for a moment, then a large number of steel branches emerged from its body and stabbed fiercely at Andrew in front of it.
These branches sprouted at an incredibly fast speed, even exceeding the speed of sound, creating rings of air currents. Unfortunately, they all missed their target—passing easily through Andrew as if he were merely a phantom.
"Boss, isn't it a bit much to play this game with me?"
The steel tree retracted its branches and shouted in dissatisfaction. Andrew sighed and punched the steel tree hard in the chest. The steel tree flew backward and slid on the ground until it crashed into the ruins of the fortress before stopping.
"Iron Tree, with your level of intelligence, it will be difficult for me to take you out in the future."
Andrew sighed. The steel tree rose from the ground and stared at Andrew in utter astonishment. It wasn't an illusion, but the real King of Superpowers.
The problem is, how is that possible? All those previous attacks passed right through him!
Just then, Andrew sighed again and said, "Fine, I'll give you a break. If I keep going like this, you probably won't even have the strength to fight back. That would be too boring."
Don't worry, I won't use that trick again. I'll fight you with my physical form.
"He was actually there? The question is, why didn't my branch hit its target?"
The Iron Tree was shocked, and at the same time, a little scared. The King of Superpowers was too powerful! If he didn't give up this ability, wouldn't he be able to only be passively beaten and have no power to fight back?
"It's one thing for the King of Superpowers to be powerful in the main universe, but why is he so powerful in this world too? Didn't he start over?"
The steel tree was puzzled and even wavered a little. Should it give up now? If it admitted defeat now, the King of Abilities wouldn't treat it badly. After all, they hadn't broken off relations yet; it was just a little 'rebellion'.
"I'm not satisfied until I've had a proper fight. I'm the fifth compound tree."
The steel tree roared, its body rapidly deforming and sprouting numerous cannon barrels. Then, the depths of these cannon barrels simultaneously lit up, and hundreds of highly condensed energy beams blasted towards Andrew at the same time.
Andrew remained motionless. He raised his hand to form a light shield, and energy beams struck the shield repeatedly, but failed to break through its defenses. Instead, the shield absorbed the energy beams, turning the originally white shield into red.
The steel tree, far from being alarmed, was delighted. Absorb energy? Haha, however much the King of Superpowers wants to absorb, I'll give it to him!
The steel tree unleashed its full firepower, firing wildly at Andrew. Not only that, robots emerged from the ruins and simultaneously opened fire on Andrew.
These robots were originally guards of the fortress. When the Steel Tree controlled the fortress to self-destruct, it deliberately avoided these robots. Now, these robots crawled out and fired at Andrew from all directions.
Andrew didn't care. With a flick of his wrist, the light shield transformed into a light barrier, absorbing and devouring all the energy beams.
Seeing this, the steel tree intensified its attack. Even the most powerful light shield has its absorption limit. Once the light shield reaches its limit, the King of Superpowers will be blown up by the light shield without the tree even having to lift a finger.
Andrew remained calm and continued to absorb the energy. The light shield changed from white to red, then from red to dark red, and finally from dark red to black, like ink. The enormous energy fluctuations were terrifying.
"How come it's not broken yet?"
The steel tree was shocked. It gritted its teeth and continued to intensify its attack, even operating beyond its capacity. At this point, there was no way out; it had to fight to the bitter end.
Just then, Andrew's voice rang out: "Iron Tree, have you ever thought about this? The me here is actually just a phantom? I've been lying to you all along."
The Iron Tree was shocked upon hearing this. If the King of Superpowers inside the light shield was an illusion, then it was in trouble. It was currently at its weakest point in terms of defense. It hurriedly became alert to its surroundings and prepared to withdraw some of its attacks, turning them into defenses.
"Just kidding, don't be so nervous, this is my true form."
Andrew laughed, and the Iron Tree's face stiffened. This was the first time in its life that it felt like hitting someone. The King of Superpowers' personality was just too awful.
"Alright, I'm done joking around. It's time to end this farce."
Andrew raised his hand and grabbed at the air, and a steel heart flew out from the chest of all the robots at the same time; that was their energy source.
As soon as the steel heart was removed, all the robots stopped and stood there dumbfounded. Then, Andrew controlled the light shield to shrink, forming a large black sphere of light.
The steel tree stared at the giant ball of light and couldn't help but swallow hard, even though it had no saliva. Then, it helplessly stopped its attack. The fact that the King of Abilities could control the light shield like this meant that the shield's absorption limit was far from being reached.
If the light shield reaches its absorption limit, and the King of Superpowers controls it like this, it will definitely explode. In other words, there is no point in attacking it any further.
The steel tree couldn't help but ask, "BOSS, why is your light shield so strong? Just now, so many attacks were enough to destroy a small continent."
"Because it was never a light shield."
Andrew smiled and shouted at the large ball of light, "Reveal your true form."
As Andrew spoke, the large light shield rapidly transformed, and soon, a genderless humanoid creature, radiating a divine aura and glowing black, appeared before the steel tree.
"This is..." The steel tree was stunned. That light shield was actually a real life form?
"It's not exactly a real life form; it's a deity from another world that I summoned."
Andrew said, "I only summoned its shell, without any energy. Steel Tree, you did a great job replenishing its energy for me, so it has now returned to its complete form."
The Iron Tree's face stiffened slightly. In other words, he had been working for the King of Superpowers all along, and without any money at all.
The steel tree couldn't help but smile bitterly. It had wanted to challenge the King of Superpowers, but it had been tricked by Him from beginning to end. How pathetic!
