Chapter 912: Capture a Live One for Questioning

"Where crops were thriving, nobody would first suspect that their own farming Mechanical Construct had become a spirit," so the human just took a glance and left, stumped, planning to return in a few days.

Unfortunately, he wouldn't have the chance. His reaction had put Ange on guard, who immediately began to disguise, such as pruning roots, cutting branches, and beating the plants to suppress some visible features of the crops.

Suppressing certain traits of plants was quite common, the most common being dwarfing — transforming tall fruit trees into short shrubs to ease harvesting and reduce the nutrition consumed by branches and leaves, after all, fruit trees were only needed for their fruits, not their large and robust growth.

When the human returned the next day, the crops looked just like those in other plots, maybe even more wilted.
