"How do you reckon I can claim it?" Han Sen asked .
Moment Queen shook her head and said, "Well, the chances would be slim . And besides, look at it; it's going to take at least another thousand years for it to mature . You'll be old and grey by then . "
"One thousand years is not that long, and furthermore, we can bring it into the shelter . " Han Sen did not seem apprehensive or wary in the least .
With the waterdrops Han Sen possessed, the thousand years could be reduced to a mere three . And Han Sen was willing to wait that long .
The Disloyal Knight was a berserk sacred-blood creature, and if he was lucky, the scales could tip and result in it being a fully-fledged super creature . Waiting three years for that opportunity would be tremendously worth it .
But Han Sen needed to know whether or not he could claim the Disloyal Knight . If he couldn't, then he'd be the sole, lifelong target of the violent fruit-born soldier .
"Don't even think about it . It's hard enough to grow sacred-blood plants, but to unearth and move one someplace else is mere foolishness and will ruin what has already grown," Moment Queen implored .
"Just tell me how to claim the Disloyal Knight, would you?" Han Sen said .
"Although it is a Disloyal Knight, it has grown on a Knight Tree . This may result in it obeying the first person it sees, but . . . "
Han Sen always hated "buts," so he said, "Just spit it out!"
"He is a Disloyal Knight, and you can't deny what you are forever . Genetically, it's a Disloyal Knight and that's what it's going to be . Even if it obeyed you, initially, the traditional, unwavering fealty of a Loyal Knight would fade over time . It would only be a matter of time before it betrayed you . It could hurt you as much as it hurts others," Moment Queen explained .
"If that loyalty lasts one hundred years, I'd say it's worth it," Han Sen said .
A hundred years was nothing to Han Sen, and he could be as strong as a super creature himself in that time .
The knight would be helpful, in its early years . He could use it to kill goliath monsters with the greatest of ease .
Han Sen, learning this about the Disloyal Knight, commanded his snakes to unearth the tree and transport it back to the shelter .
Moment Queen did not say anything, but she found the scene quite amusing .
It would have made sense for an emperor to move a tree, but for Han Sen, who had only just entered the Third God's Sanctuary, it was a humorous joke . She thought he was being a little too big for his breeches .
Still, she would not stop him . Ultimately, it would not be her business, so she was happy just to sit back and watch .
"If you don't need me, then I'll return to the spirit base . " Moment Queen was eager to get back to earning geno points .
Han Sen waved her off, knowing she would not aid in the tree's excavation, anyway .
The soil around the tree was very hard, but the snakes were powerful and it did not take them long to dig through . This was especially true of the snake with six of its gene locks open . The speed at which it worked was remarkable, and it had no trouble committing to the task they had been commanded to perform .
The roots beneath the earth were slowly revealed, and they were as thick as barrels .
The roots were also long, and it proved impossible to move the tree as well as the roots . Han Sen commanded that they bite the roots off .
They did so, but it wasn't easy . The roots were harder than stone, and three of them failed, only leaving light bite marks in the material . Only the Dragon-Blood Snake with six of its gene locks open was able to cut off the excess roots .
But after the snake bit off one root, the tree began to shiver and tremble . The six Loyal Knights were like ghosts, swinging from the boughs of the tree .
Boom!
One Loyal Knight disconnected and hit the ground . One after another, so did the others . They did not collapse onto the ground, but instead, they landed on their feet like armor-garbed mannequins in a museum .
Han Sen took a step back, not sure what to expect, and allowed Little Wind and his number one Dragon-Blood Snake to protect him from the front . He also made sure to summon his armor, just in-case .
"What have we here? Didn't Moment Queen say it would take a thousand years for them to grow? Why would they detach now?" Han Sen looked at the six figures, twirling the red dagger in his hand .
Suddenly, the Loyal Knights opened their eyes . They looked at Han Sen and the Dragon-Blood Snake beside him .
"Wait, these are Loyal Knights . So that means they'll obey me upon seeing me, right? But if the snake is in front of me . . . " Han Sen regretted using the snake for protection, but suddenly, one of the Loyal Knights threw a punch towards it .
The other five followed and did the same, throwing fists towards the stalwart snake . They were much weaker than sacred-blood creatures, but they were undoubtedly greater than mutant class types .
"Did Moment lie? They are attacking whatever they see!" Han Sen commanded the Dragon-Blood Snake and Little Wind to fight back against their fruity aggressors .
Boom!
A light rose from the feet of one of the Loyal Knights, then it punched the snake . The snake was sent flying .
Han Sen saw the rest of the knights generate an aura, one that rose from their feet, also . Three of them were graced with a halo atop their heads .
Two of them had two halos, whereas one had three .
The more halos they had, the more powerful they were . Han Sen thought it might have signified the number of gene locks they had open .
The halos did not deal extra damage, but they buffed the knights in a variety of ways .
Not that Han Sen cared much for this . They hadn't finished fully maturing, and they had been deprived of adequate nutrition . Han Sen guessed the pets under his command could deal with the foes before him .
"It's lucky the Disloyal Knight has not decided to join them . Had it chosen to, I might have been done for," Han Sen thought . But then, he looked towards the figure of his musing and was given a shock .
He did not know when it had happened, but the Disloyal Knight's eyes were open . They were fixed on Han Sen .
